Japan Postal Reform Key for Japan

Japan postal reform is Key for Japan.Not for the mail delivery services (although it is one of the most expensive in the world and would need reform)The key is the financial assets.Japan Post bank is the biggest bank in the world with 2 Trillion US$ assets.Its insurance arm is bigger that the 4 major Japanese insurance companies put together.Currently these assets are used very inefficiently to financemany projects which are useless (except for politicians). For the foreign investors if these assets are freed, this will mean:
- More investment opportunities:
Unprofitable companies and bad loans will needto find investors.
- More opportunities to raise money.
For the Japanese economy it is very positive since it will make it closer to a real market economy and free it from the bureaucratic controls that prevent it to grow.
