JAPAN - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Over the past 70 years, government-industry cooperation, a strong work
ethic, mastery of high technology, and a comparatively small defense allocation
(slightly less than 1% of GDP) have helped Japan develop an advanced economy.
Two notable characteristics of the post-World War II economy were the close
interlocking structures of manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors, known as
keiretsu, and the guarantee of lifetime employment for a substantial portion of
the urban labor force. Both features have significantly eroded under the dual
pressures of global competition and domestic demographic change.
Measured on a purchasing power parity basis that adjusts for price
differences, Japan in 2017 stood as the fourth-largest economy in the world
after first-place China, which surpassed Japan in 2001, and third-place India,
which edged out Japan in 2012. For three postwar decades, overall real economic
growth was impressive - a 10% average in the 1960s, 5% in the 1970s, and 4% in
the 1980s. Growth slowed markedly in the 1990s, averaging just 1.7%, largely
because of the aftereffects of inefficient investment and the collapse of an
asset price bubble in the late 1980s, which entailed considerable time for
firms to reduce excess debt, capital, and labor. Modest economic growth
continued after 2000, but the economy has fallen into recession four times
since 2008.
Japan enjoyed an uptick in growth in 2013 on the basis of Prime Minister
Shinzo ABE’s “Three Arrows” economic revitalization agenda - dubbed “Abenomics”
- of monetary easing, “flexible” fiscal policy, and structural reform. Led by
the Bank of Japan’s aggressive monetary easing, Japan is making modest progress
in ending deflation, but demographic decline – a low birthrate and an aging,
shrinking population – poses a major long-term challenge for the economy. The
government currently faces the quandary of balancing its efforts to stimulate
growth and institute economic reforms with the necessity of addressing its
sizable public debt, which stands at 235% of GDP. To help raise government
revenue, Japan adopted legislation in 2012 to gradually raise the consumption
tax rate. However, the first such increase, in April 2014, led to another
recession, so Prime Minister ABE has twice postponed the next increase, now
scheduled for October 2019. Structural reforms to unlock productivity are seen
as central to strengthening the economy in the long-run.
Scarce in critical natural resources, Japan has long been dependent on
imported energy and raw materials. After the complete shutdown of Japan’s
nuclear reactors following the earthquake and tsunami disaster in 2011, Japan's
industrial sector has become even more dependent than before on imported fossil
fuels. However, ABE’s government is seeking to restart nuclear power plants
that meet strict new safety standards and is emphasizing nuclear energy’s
importance as a base-load electricity source. In August 2015, Japan
successfully restarted one nuclear reactor at the Sendai Nuclear Power Plant in
Kagoshima prefecture, and several other reactors around the country have since
resumed operations; however, opposition from local governments has delayed
several more restarts that remain pending. Reforms of the electricity and gas
sectors, including full liberalization of Japan’s energy market in April 2016
and gas market in April 2017, constitute an important part of Prime Minister
Abe’s economic program.
In October 2015, Japan and 11 trading partners reached agreement on the
Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), a pact that had promised to open Japan's
economy to increased foreign competition and create new export opportunities
for Japanese businesses. Japan was the first country to ratify the TPP in
December 2016; the United States signaled its withdrawal from the TPP in
January 2017, and in November 2017 the remaining 11 countries agreed on the
core elements of a modified agreement, which they renamed the Comprehensive and
Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).
