Welcome to today's episode of "22 George Street" podcast, I'm George. Today, we delve into a phenomenon that is ubiquitous in Japan yet relatively unheard of in the Western world - the adoption of adult males, and the fascinating history behind it. This unique tradition has played a pivotal role in propelling Japanese family businesses across centuries, ensuring their continued prosperity. Its implications also offer valuable insights for family business succession in China and beyond.
While adoption typically brings to mind children in Western societies, in Japan, the landscape is vastly different. With one of the highest adoption rates globally, a staggering 98% of adoptions in Japan involve adult males as of 2017. This practice, known as "mukoyoshi," or adult adoption, serves various purposes beyond altruistic motives, often serving as a strategic solution for issues like extramarital affairs, inheritance taxes, and ensuring capable successors for family enterprises.
