Japanese corporate culture do not welcome foreign investment in industries that were once seen as strategically important for the country, because in case of loss of interest in the assets of Japanese corporations from local producers, they can take over the state under its control structure. In the case of Sharp corporation , as reported by Reuterswith reference to the Japanese media, INCJ investment fund can become the savior , created in 2009 for such operations. This structure has managed to consolidate part of LCD panels manufacturers under the roof of Japan Display, where the fund owns a 35% stake.
Now we are talking about the fact that Sharp will decline to the allocation of assets related to the production of LCD panels. Most likely, they will be sold to all besides Japan Display, a major stake in the "big" Sharp Corporation INCJ fund will buy for $ 1.63 billion., Taking the obligation of creditors to write off the debts of the corporation.
INCJ Fund may insist on a change of Sharp leadership , so the separation of assets related to the production of LCD panels, is not the only condition for participation in the rescue of the structure of the Japanese corporation. Sharp share price against the background of these messages has grown by a few percent. Representatives of corporations said they are considering different scenarios for the restructuring and INCJ refused to give comments.
