Beschreibungen/Notizen
The Japanese recently coined the word "shisanka," or person with assets, in order to identify high net-worth individuals. Japan's wealthy individuals are involved in every area of business activity from manufacturing to all levels of distribution. Most are probably presidents or directors of companies their families founded. Rapid appreciation in real estate values in the Tokyo area has caused a shift toward that sector by these high net-worth individuals. Prime commercial property now can cost approximately $20,000 per square foot. The possibility of achieving even higher returns by investing in overseas real estate also has attracted the interest of these individuals. In 1988, the Japanese invested more than $4 billion in US equities, $16.5 billion in US real estate, and $32 billion in US Treasury securities. The purchase of residential condominiums in New York and Los Angeles, California, is an area where individual involvement is most visible.
