Japan investment influx fueled by more than weak yen: KKR co-CEO
TOKYO -- Corporate governance reform in Japan is "unlocking enormous value within companies," says Joseph Bae, co-CEO of U.S.-based investment firm KKR, which looks to spend more than 1 trillion yen ($6.34 billion) in Japan over the next decade.
"For a fund like KKR that invests in unlisted stocks, this can lead to acquisition opportunities for high-quality businesses," Bae told Nikkei in a recent interview.
