Chris Flowers Tracks Financial Services in the U.S. & Japan: 1999, 2009 and 2019

The past ten years have ushered in dramatic transformation in the financial services industry in Japan and the United States. The former underwent substantial structural reform to rid itself of bad bank debt incurred during the asset bubble of the early 1990s, and revitalized its financial markets commensurate with other international markets and with its own economic strength. The latter saw ever more complex innovations in its financial products and cheap credit that allowed investors to shoulder greater risk. The current financial crisis has proven neither country’s system infallible and opened the door for substantial regulatory reform in the future. J. Christopher Flowers, instrumental in resurrecting Shinsei Bank, the former Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan, provides historic perspective to explain the path to the present, and suggests what the coming ten years have in store.

日米金融界の変遷～過去10年と今後の展望

新生銀行の復活に貢献したJ・クリストファー・フラワーズ氏をお迎えし、講演会を開催します。過去10年間、日米両国の金融業界は劇的な変化を遂げました。日本は90年代初期のバブル経済期に発生した不良債権処理のため多大な構造改革を実施し、他の国際市場および自国の経済強化のために金融市場を活性化させました。一方米国は、金融商品や投資家に更なるリスクを負わせる結果となった金利の安いクレジット等さらに複雑な改革に取り組んできました。昨年勃発した経済危機により、両国の金融システムには更なる改革が必要だといわれています。フラワーズ氏は、両国金融界の現在までを辿りながら、今後10年間の行方を語ります。

スピーカー：J・クリストファー・フラワーズ（J.C.フラワーズ社会長兼CEO）
