1 An Empirical Analysis of Disasters on Regional Economy Case Study of Flood Disaster in Japan by use of regional GDP data Naoyuki Yoshino, Ph.D Dean, Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI) Professor Emeritus, Keio University, Japan Umid Abidhadjaev, Ph.D Research Consultant on Infrastructure, ADBInstitute

2 Y=F(Kp, L, Kg, D)

3 Economic Effects of disaster () Effects on Supply Side (Production) L= Labor Agriculture Kp = Private Capital Manufacture Kg = Infrastructure Service D = Disaster (GDP) Y = F (Kp, L, Kg, D)

4 () Effect of Disaster on Demand Side Aggregate Demand of the Region Y = C + I + G + EXP IMP Transmission of Natural Disaster Decline in consumption (C) Decline in Investment (I) Decline in Exports (EXP) Overall Decline in GDP
