Abstract

How do Japanese multinational corporations evaluate the attractiveness of different countries, and what factors are most important to them? Among Japanese corporations, a consensus has been reached on which countries are considered promising for medium- or long-term investment. China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) members (Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines) continue to attract considerable attention. China's attractiveness is declining, however, due to its recent policies regarding foreign investments and a tax system that creates negative influences. Another factor has been the poor performance of foreign companies in China. Among the industrialized nations, the United States, Canada, and the European Union (EU) are the most attractive countries or regions.
