The most important economic unit in the process of economic growth is the firm. It is widely recognized that firms were the main actors in the rapidly growing economies of East Asia,and that business groups such as Zaibatsu have contributed to economic development in these countries. This paper focuses on the case of Modern Japan, which was the first among East-Asian countries to achieve economic development,and analyzes the roles and contributions of Sogo-Zaibatsu on the Japanese economy and industry. At first,diversification of Sogo-Zaibatsu can be characterized as chain diversification into areas relating to their existing businesses rather than formation of conglomerates,and it entailed both vertical and horizontal integration. While vertical integration contributed to reducing transaction costs,horizontal integration resulted in economies of scale. In addition to these effects,there are external economies and diseconomies,economies of scope and synergy effect as other ones. The second issue is the process of capital accumulation in Zaibatsu. At their infant stage, they could take advantage of loans and subsidies provided on a preferential basis by the Meiji government. Banks, as the momentary branch of Zaibatsu, had played an important role in its capital provision. It is also emphasized that the headquarters of Zaibatsu,or the holding company possessing a dominant part of shares of its subsidiaries,effectively adjusted the use of financial resources for the whole group by channeling resources from subsidiaries with excess to those in short of funds. In addition,monitoring of the subsidiaries' management and performance by the holding company contributed to the growth of Zaibatsu as well as stabilization of the Japanese economy and industry. The last issue is the role of trading branch of Zaibatsu on the Japanese economic growth. The trading branch exported goods produced not only by other branches of Zaibatsu but also by other firms,and supplied imported materials and technology for the Japanese industry as a whole. As the example of this role,this paper is discussed the contribution of Zaibatsu's trading branch to the growth of the spinning industry,once the leading sector of the Japanese industry. In the concluding section,three outstanding issues as further research are needed: 1. The process of formation of business groups in East Asia and their contributions and roles in economic growth in these countries; 2. the impact of human resource development and introduction of new technology in Zaibatsu on the Japanese economic growth; and 3. Empirical study on the role of Zaibatsu in the Japanese economic growth using data taken from their accounting books and statistical indicators.
