Using the firm-level data from the Development Bank of Japan database, I construct a firm-specific measure of financial constraints. I find that the financial constraints index has a gamma distribution with a long right tail, indicating many firms under weak financial constraints and a small number of firms under severe financial constraints. The spread between the 25th and 75th percentiles of financial constraints index increased after 2000, which indicates that financial inequality in Japan increased recently. Finally, decomposing the observed financial heterogeneity into within- and between-industry effects shows that the inequality is due to the growing inequality between firms within the same industry.
