| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research investigates why Japanese firms do not utilize captives for financing risk so much as US or UK firms do. In order to answer to the above research question, we set up three hypothesises and used empirical approach both with micro and macro analysis.
Our research results show that Japanese firms did not necessarily make rational decisison based on efficiency of risk financing by captives but rather decide to keep current good relationship with the insurance companies who are afraid of lowering premium incomes. The insurance companies who have a major stockholder of the firm do not encourage the firm to increase its firm's value by captives but want to keep the current commercial relationship.
