Last Saturday I got eventually to go to the biannual meeting of the Macro-Finance Society. This is a fun new work spearheaded by exceptional young macro-finance experts. This paper addresses an essential issue. The policy and commentary community help to keep stating that the Federal Reserve has a large influence on risk-monthly premiums by its control of short-term rates. Low rates of interest are thought to spark a “grab yield,” and encourage investors, and too large to fail banking institutions especially, to defend myself against unwise risks. This entire story has turned into a central debate for hawkishness at this time. The causal channel is just mentioned as a fact. But one should not accept an argument just because one likes the policy result.
Nice tale. Except there is approximately zero economic reasoning to it. The known level of nominal interest rates and the risk premium are two totally different phenomena. Borrowing at 5% and making a risky investment at 8%, or borrowing at 1% and making a risky investment at 4% is exactly the same risk-reward tradeoff.
“I heard through the grape vine. Ole Ryland can’t be happy. “Yes they may be. Of your day He’ll be bought out by the finish. And like JR wanted just, I’ve locked Ryland down. Ellie and I will be capable of getting Ryland in as President of the business. Except for a missing twenty percent share would be helpful. “I see. Well you don’t have to worry about the lacking ten percent. JR arranged it to be switched to your brother Bo.
“Yeah well I’m not going to. “I’m sorry John Ross. I promised your daddy I’d help her stay concealed. “Well, I’m not taking Chris’s stocks then. So we’re done. I did so everything he asked of me, everything I’m willing to do. My buddy, sister, and I control Ewing Global. “I suppose it has to do.” No hands him an envelope. “You’ve got JR’s red files and Ryland’s black box. And you control Ryland and have his company in addition to that of Cliff Barnes. So we’re done. I’d say you completed JR’s masterpiece. This is what your father guaranteed you.
In stepped politics. As 2012 advanced, it became clear that Japan Post intended to release a competitive product. The Trans-Pacific Partnership was also in negotiation and the Obama administration made Aflac one of its politics footballs during discussions on the TPP. The administration didn’t like the idea of a government-associated Japanese competition squeezing a US insurance out of its bread-and-butter market. Buckling under the pressure, the Japanese authorities reined Japan Post in.

As the area of the eventual TPP agreement in 2013 Japan Post decided to suspend the start of its cancer product and open additional branches to Aflac sales. Aflac sections new annualized high quality sales into three bins: associated corporate agencies (including Japan Post), self-employed corporate agencies, and individual organizations (all the insurance providers), and the bank channel. The 2013 TPP-associated agreement expanded the true quantity of postal branches offering Aflac cancer tumor products to 10, 000, and 20 immediately,000 thereafter.
There’s been a steady climb in the affiliated sales channel (includes Japan Post) as the bank route receded as WAYS was eliminated. Japan Post seems to be filling the gap left by the lender channel. In 2018, Japan Post-sales accounted for 25% of Aflac Japan’s new third-sector sales. I believe that there’s actually a more impressive catalyst in the years ahead. In December 2018, the Aflac-Japan Post story progressed more once. 2.6B. The stocks will be obtained on the open market and will be at the mercy of voting restrictions. For Aflac, the deal helps cement the growing relationship. 2.6B to the buyback program as a momentum drivers.
