Honda, the renowned automaker, is stepping up to accelerate its reorganization by turning a crucial automotive parts division into its own subsidiary reportedly named "Astemo". This strategic move aims to streamline operations, boost operational efficiencies, and foster an environment more conducive to innovation and advancement in technology. The formal introduction of, and transition to, “Astemo” is expected to happen soon.

In Japan, the automobile industry plays a pivotal role in its economy, and any structural or operational changes within big automotive companies like Honda are scrutinized carefully. People pay attention to how these changes could potentially affect job security, local economies, and innovation trends. Subsidiarization is typically seen as a way to streamline business processes, encourage growth, and further technological development.

Just like in Japan, in the US and EU, significant changes in major automobile corporations are closely observed given their substantial influence on the economies. However, due to different market conditions and regulation environments, the process and impact of such reorganizations may vary. In general, the US and EU may expect more resistance to such changes due to stronger labor unions and stricter regulations compared to Japan.
