    Tokyu Land Corporation From Tokyo’s pulsing heart, Shibuya, to Manhattan: TLC eyes global expansion Wednesday, Aug 9, 2017 http://www.theworldfolio.com/interviews/from-tokyos-pulsing-heart-shibuya-to-manhattan-tlc-eyes-global-expansion/4414/ Hitoshi Uemura, Vice Chairman of Tokyu Land Corporation Hitoshi Uemura Vice Chairman of Tokyu Land Corporation With a diversified portfolio of services, Tokyu Land Corporation–one of the leading real estate companies in Japan– is reshaping the urban face of Tokyo with a long-term vision beyond 2020 and participating in the landmark redevelopment of 425 Park Avenue–a multipurpose building in the Plaza District of Manhattan To what extent are global economic events and local developments such as Abenomics and the 2020 Olympic Games impacting the real estate market? We can see some positive effects from Abenomics on the business of Tokyu Land Corporation (TLC), especially the so called “inbound effect” in terms of foreign tourists. Abenomics is, of course, a set of domestic Japanese economic policies, but it influences the currency markets and therefore has a global effect. As TLC owns hotels and commercial facilities, Japan’s economic growth and the impact of the booming tourism industry driven by Abenomics definitely have positive effects on our market. As for the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, a new national stadium is being built near our corporate headquarters and several more construction projects are ongoing in Tokyo. The construction of such facilities will be completed when the games start. Therefore, I expect the Japanese economy to slow down somewhat after the event. Until 2020, I believe the economy will grow at a steady pace.
