Abstract
In October 2007, five companies affiliated with the Japan Post Group became stock companies wholly owned by the government, i.e., privately operated but government owned companies. In October of the following year, policy-based financial institutions (Development Bank of Japan, Shoko Chukin Bank, and Japan Finance Corporation) also became privately operated but government-owned stock companies.
