Japan: On the Verge of Societal Collapse

(January 2023) Japan is expected to face harsh demographic headwinds throughout the coming decades. According to estimates by Japanese prime minister Fumio Kishida number of birth in Japan dropped below 800,000 in 2022 which is inline with the UN estimates of 815,000 births. Throughout the 1970s Japan experienced nearly 2 million births per year. In 2022 number of births decreased to 800 thousands. According to the UN World Population Prospects outlook population of Japan will decrease from 124 million to 73 million people in 2100 in medium scenario and to 50 million people in low scenario.Low birthrates coupled with population aging created a population pyramid with growing share of elderly population. In 2021 the share of population ages 65+ increased to 29%. Only Monaco has a higher proportion of residents 65 and older. Old age dependancy ratio in Japan (which is the ratio of population ages 65+ to working age population 15-64) topped 50 in 2021. This means that they are roughly 51 dependents for every 100 people of working age. Today’s high dependency rate undermines Japan’s economic growth.Low immigration has hampered Japan’s ability to elevate its lagging birth rate. Between 1950 and 2022 the net migration rate in Japan did not rise above 1.5 migrants per 1000 population compared to an average of 4 net incoming migrants per 1000 population per year in the US.In 2022, Japan had a fertility rate of 1.34 children born to each woman. According to the UN long-term projections fertility rate in Japan will unlikely increase back to 2.1 needed to stabilise the population.

Japan: Weakened Pre-COVID Economy Turns in Record Setting Q2 2020 //pt.knoema.com/rtzaipg/japan-weakened-pre-covid-economy-turns-in-record-setting-q2-2020 2021-11-17T16:13:51Z Nematullah Khan pt.knoema.com://pt.knoema.com/user/1975840
Japan: Weakened Pre-COVID Economy Turns in Record Setting Q2 2020

(22 August 2020) Japan's economic performance in Q2 2020 was the worst ever since Tokyo started publishing GDP data. The world's third largest economy reported a 7.8 percent QoQ decrease compared to 'only' a 4.8 percent drop during the global financial crisis. While a rough quarter for Japan, it was still a less severe economic contraction that faced by the United Kingdom (down 20.4 percent) and the United States (down 9.5 percent) where COVID measures forced broad sweeping constraints on normal economic activity that Japan has avoided.On an annualized basis*, Japan's economy shrank 27.8 percent, a better performance still than the United States, which set its own record with an annualized decrease of 32.9 percent in Q2.Private consumption, which accounts for more than 50 percent of Japan's GDP, fell 8.2 percent QoQ while gross fixed capital formation declined by less than a percent.As was the case elsewhere globally during Q2, Japan's exports succumbed to weak global demand and decreased 18.5 percent QoQ; imports declined only marginally (0.54 percent). Japan entered the COVID period with an economy struggling with high tax rates, soaring national debt, rising costs for elder care, and a shrinking consumer market as well as absorbing a continuing series of economic shocks from natural disasters, notably including the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami of 2011. Seeking to brace its domestic economy while awaiting the recovery of global demand, tourism, and general economic activity, the government and financial system have taken a multi-pronged approach to manage through COVID:Stimulus package. The government announced a fiscal stimulus package of $2.1 trillion, about 40 percent of GDP. Adjusted monetary policy. The Bank of Japan eased monetary policy through unlimited purchases of government bonds, real estate investment trusts, corporate bonds, and indirect lending programs.   Note: Annualized GDP reflects what would happen if the Q2 GDP growth rate continued for a whole year. It is calculated as [(current quarter GDP/ Previous quarter GDP)^4-1]*100.

COVID-19 Dynamics Threaten Prolonged Recession in Japan and South Korea //pt.knoema.com/nomffcc/covid-19-dynamics-threaten-prolonged-recession-in-japan-and-south-korea 2020-12-25T05:32:09Z Misha Gusev pt.knoema.com://pt.knoema.com/user/1000560
COVID-19 Dynamics Threaten Prolonged Recession in Japan and South Korea

(17 December 2020) Until recently Korea and Japan were considered among a select few countries to represent the gold standard in the COVID-19 containment response, even if the world had barely begun to understand what exactly they did right. Early information suggests timely implementation of contact tracing along with well-established habits of wearing face masks, particularly in Japan, contributed. Now it seems that by slingshotting from strict protocols to the most lax among major world economies, COVID-19 is outstripping and perhaps overwhelming previously successful containment strategies. The economic slow down, which in the first half of 2020 was largely attributable to disruptions in global supply chains and suppressed foreign demand, could be prolonged into the first quarter of 2021 due to new anti-COVID restrictions. As of mid December 2020, new daily COVID-19 cases per million population in South Korea and Japan increased to 18 and 21, respectively, nearly double the previous peaks in each country. Compared the world's other largest economies the speed of the COVID-19 spread is still relatively low but on par with countries such as India and Indonesia.

Bank of Japan Monetary Policy Meeting

The Bank of Japan, as the central bank of Japan, decides and implements monetary policy with the aim of maintaining price stability. Price stability is important because it provides the foundation for the nation's economic activity. In implementing monetary policy, the Bank influences the formation of interest rates for the purpose of currency and monetary control, by means of its operational instruments, such as money market operations. The basic stance for monetary policy is decided by the Policy Board at Monetary Policy Meetings (MPMs). At MPMs, the Policy Board discusses the economic and financial situation, decides the guideline for money market operations and the Bank's monetary policy stance for the immediate future, and announces decisions immediately after the meeting concerned. The Bank sets the amount of daily money market operations and chooses types of operational instruments, and provides and absorbs funds in the market.

Japan Population

Current population of Japan is estimated at 126.6 million persons, that accounts for 1.7% of the total world population. Japan the tenth most populated country in the world, while population of Tokio, Japan's capital city, is the largest among world's urban agglomerations. However, today population of Japan is gradually declining. Thus, its population have decreased by 1% compared to its peak in 2010 - year of previous census. And this trend is going to continue in the future: Japan is among 11 countries that are expected to see their populations declining between 2015 and 2050 by more than 15%. Population division of the UN expects Japan population to decrease to 107 million people by 2050. So, why is population of Japan declining? First of all, for the large proportion of male Japanese population there is shift towards work in the work-life balance. In other words, work in Japan is the primary interest as compared to inferior life: average working day in Japan is 10 hours. High working pressure causes stress levels to surge and suicide rates to retain high: as for 2011 Japan has the second highest suicide rate in the world after Korea. What for Japanese women, they are also career-focused, if not to more extent than men. Due to this Japan is among largest low-fertility countries such as China, Russia, USA and Viet Nam. Starting from 1977 total fertility rate in Japan is below 1.9, which means that, on average, every woman gives birth to less than 2 children. Moreover, Japan has an ageing population. Life expectancy at birth in 2010-2015 in Japan is the second-highest in the world trailing only China, Hong Kong SAR. For this reason alongside low fertility rates, Japan has the lowest number of workers per retiree in the world: on average there are 2.1 people aged 20-64 years for every person aged 65 years and above. Because of this healthcare and social protection systems of Japan may face profound pressure in the not-too-distant future. All in all, population ageing, prevalence of "salaryman" culture", low fertility rates and high suicide rates are the main factors behind declining Japanese population.China PopulationIndia PopulationUSA PopulationIndonesia PopulationBrazil Population World PopulationPakistan PopulationNigeria PopulationBangladesh PopulationRussia PopulationJapan Population World Population Ranking
