New Flash Japan Services PMI to launch on 24 July 2019
IHS Markit (Nasdaq: INFO), a world leader in critical
information, analytics and solutions, today announced that Jibun
Bank, the fast-growing internet bank established in 2008 and
jointly funded by KDDI and MUFG Bank, is to sponsor its Japan PMI™
(Purchasing Managers’ Index™) surveys.
Compiled by IHS Markit, the Japan PMI series is based on data
collected monthly from around 800 purchasing or other senior
managers in Japan and covers both manufacturing and service
sectors.
Tomoki Usui, president at Jibun Bank said: "The global PMI
series produced by IHS Markit is one of the most closely watched
signals of business activity in the world. We are excited to
partner with them to release a new data series revealing deeper
insights into Japan’s economy with the launch of a new Flash Japan
Services PMI. Through the effort, we will embody KDDI's ‘Smart
Money Concept‘, which ensures customer satisfaction by providing
comprehensive smartphone-centric settlements and financial
transactions, as a member of the au Financial Group*.”
“We are pleased to welcome Jibun Bank as the new sponsor of our
Japan PMI surveys and look forward to extending the scope of PMI
data for Japan through the partnership,” said Luke Thompson, global
head of PMI at IHS Markit. “First up will be the launch of a new
Flash Japan Services PMI to provide even earlier monthly signals on
the health of the services economy.”
IHS Markit and Jibun Bank will launch the first ever Flash Japan
Services PMI on 24 July 2019. Released one week prior to the end of
each month, the Flash Japan Services PMI will be based on
approximately 85 percent of the usual monthly survey responses and
will provide an earlier insight into the health of the services
economy – complementing the existing Flash Japan Manufacturing
PMI.
