Book Description
Reading Japanese Financial Newspapers is designed for business people who already have some basic background in Japanese but want to improve their reading comprehension skills for direct access to the financial pages of the Japanese equivalent of The New York Times or The Wall Street Journal.

The text focuses specifically on acquiring reading competence in words and phrases appearing frequently in Japanese financial publications, thus making specialized terminology accessible to students.
