摘要：In response to the financial crisis in 2008, there are growing moves around the world to enhancestatistics in order to identify the buildup of risks and financial and economic vulnerabilities that would notbe captured through existing data. Accordingly, the Bank of Japan (BOJ) worked to enhance andexpand Japan's Flow of Funds Accounts (J-FFA) and started to release three new data series(1."from-whom-to-whom" data of debt securities and loans, 2."Loans, Debt Securities, and Deposits byMaturity," and 3."Amounts Outstanding of Securitized Products") between 2011 and 2013. These datasets revealed recent notable trends such as: (1) an increase in cross-border transactions; (2) a shift ofcreditor from the public sector to the private sector; (3) differences in the maturity composition of fundinvestment and fund raising among economic entities; and (4) a downtrend in the amounts outstandingof securitized products.
