After 17 years of failure to change, Sapporo's policy change was triggered by the fact that sales in beer business were beginning to recover after the long tunnel of deflation.
Regulators, weighed down by the growing number of companies with low profitability and declining competitiveness, want to change the situation, even if it means leveraging the power of activist investors.
Many companies bottomed out due to exiting the deflationary economy, and TSE requests prohibit companies from ignoring investors' proposals, which makes it easier for companies to change.
