Group 1 - The phenomenon of uninheritance in Japan is increasingly common due to the aging population and rising death rates, with the government expected to collect a record 129 billion yen (approximately 5.86 billion RMB) in unclaimed inheritances in 2024 [1] - Japan's population has been declining since around 2009, contributing to structural issues such as social isolation among the elderly, with a rising proportion of unmarried individuals among deceased seniors and an increasing number of people without close relatives [1] - The annual increase in the number of deaths, projected to reach 1.6 million in 2024, is one of the reasons for the rapid growth of unclaimed inheritances, along with a low rate of will creation [1]
