Corporate governance changes and a renewed focus on returns are reshaping the case for Japanese equities.

The investment backdrop is evolving quickly, and the headline numbers tell only part of the story. Market participants are comparing current conditions with longer-term trends while watching liquidity, earnings quality, and policy expectations.
