Associate-level knowledge for Japan fixed income markets

Want to build real financial literacy — not headlines, but how the system actually works? Breaking into fixed income and want to arrive ahead of the curve? Or simply curious why Japan — the world's most indebted major economy — is where it is today? Mark to Market is a free, AI-maintained textbook on Japan's economy, monetary and fiscal policy, and government bond markets — written to take you to the level a first-year rates professional is expected to reach. Unlike a printed textbook, it keeps itself current: market data flows in from the Ministry of Finance every day, and an AI pipeline re-verifies the key facts against primary sources after every policy meeting and data release.
