Japan's GDP to increase 0.4% in Q4

Global domestic demand is likely to boost growth.

Moody’s Analytics reported that Japan’s GDP is likely to increase by 0.4% QoQ mainly due to high global domestic demand in 4Q2017.

Exports are expected to add 0.2 percentage points to December’s GDP growth, remaining as the country’s main growth engine.

Accounting for 60% of total GDP, consumption is also forecasted to rise, which is likely to give 0.1% percentage point to the country’s GDP growth. Business investment is also expected to contribute another 0.1 percentage point.

For the full year 2017, GDP growth is forecasted to increase to 1.6%, which is driven by improved global demand, a tech cycle upswing, and a cheaper yen, Moody’s said.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
