Koichi Tanigawa: A passionate voice in radiation disaster medicine via The Lancet
[…] Tanigawa became a fierce critic of the arrangements made to evacuate older patients from the area, many of whom died—not from radiation, which was insufficient to do much harm, but from the trauma of the evacuation itself. He acknowledges … Continue reading

東芝不正の背景にあった原子力事業買収の重荷 via 経済プレミア
第三者委報告書が明かさなかった謎(2) 話は2006年にさかのぼる。東芝は当時社長だった西田厚聡(あつとし)前相談役の「選択と集中」の号令のもと、半導体と原子力を事業の2本柱に位置づけた。米原子力大手ウェスチングハウスの買収は、原子力事業に投資を集中させる目玉中の目玉だった。 長い交渉の末、同年10月に買収手続きが完了する。東芝のウェスチングハウスへの出資比率は77%で、買収額は約4900億円だった。 その後、07年にカザフスタン国営原子力事業会社に10%分を約630億円で売り、逆に11年9月には米企業から20%分を約1250億円で買い増すことになった。この結果、現在は87%の株式を保有している。 ウェスチングハウス買収に当初から「高値づかみ」の見方 だが、この買収は、当時から「高値づかみ」の見方が強かった。米ゼネラル・エレクトリック(GE)と日立製作所の連合や、三菱重工と競合し、当初言われていた金額の2倍ほどに買収額が膨らんだからだ。 東芝は買収時、世界の原子力需要は20年までに、原子力発電所で約130基相当分拡大するとの見込みを明らかにし た。当時の東芝の原子力事業の規模は約2000億円。ウェスチングハウスを傘下に収めたことで、15年に約7000億円、20年には約9000億円に拡大 するとの予想も示した。 (略) 東芝の歴代社長は、なぜ執拗(しつよう)に利益水増しを部下に求めたのか。その背景には、東芝の財務が抱える二つのアキレスけん「ウェスチングハウスの買収ののれん」と「繰り延べ税金資産」があった。 全文は 東芝不正の背景にあった原子力事業買収の重荷
