Investing in Japan

The Japanese stock market and economy are seen as a safe haven in times of crisis which makes it attractive to investors. And while interest rates are being raised rapidly by central banks elsewhere in developed markets, which has proved a headwind for their stock markets, Japanese rates remain relatively low.
In this video, we look at what else makes Japanese stocks attractive, the benefits of currency hedging your Japanese stocks, and also look at funds on Trading 212, which give you low-cost exposure to Japan.

When investing, your capital is at risk. Investments can fall and rise and you may get back less than you invested. The information contained within the video was correct at the time of recording but may have since changed.

I regularly buy ISJP as I like that the Sector exposures vs the larger one which has mostly Construction Conglomerates. I also feel comfortable with SMEs in Japan.

I am Japanese, but buying Japanese stocks for the short term, or even the very long term, is difficult to hold from the perspective of a declining population. Do not think that the Nikkei 225 or Nikkei TOPIX are great indices like the S&P 500. The S&P 500 has far stricter listing criteria and is a difficult index to beat. In contrast, the listing standards of the major Japanese indices are not as strict as those of the S&P 500. Corporate governance is also lax, and there are no punitive damages as in the United States. In other words, it is easier for fraud and collusion to take place in Japan than in the United States. Last year, a fundamental review of the index was conducted, but I believe there is still much improvement to be made. The Japanese market, with its low P/B ratios and low P/E ratios, appears to be undervalued at first glance, but this is only due to the above reasons. It could be said that the good performance of stock prices is simply due to the depreciation of the currency.
