JIP Database 2023

Japan Industrial Productivity Database 2023 (JIP Database 2023)

The Japan Industrial Productivity Database 2023 (JIP Database 2023) is the latest version of the JIP Database compiled in a collaborative effort between RIETI under its East Asian Industrial Productivity Project within the Raising Industrial Firm Productivity Program and Hitotsubashi University.

The JIP Database 2023 comprises, for the period from 1994 to 2020, various types of annual data necessary for estimating total factor productivity (TFP) in 100 industries covering Japan's economy as a whole, including capital service input indices and capital costs, quality-adjusted labor service input indices and labor costs, nominal and real output and intermediate inputs, as well as growth accounting results, including estimates of TFP growth rates, and a decomposition of labor productivity improvements. Moreover, for quality-adjusted labor service input indices and labor costs, nominal and real output and intermediate inputs, and labor productivity growth, data up to 2021 are provided.

As control totals of nominal values for the JIP 2023, benchmark year 2015 production-side data (based on the 2008 SNA) are used; however, since these data are available only from 1994 onward, the JIP 2023, like the JIP 2021, only covers the period from 1994 onward.

The Japanese economy experienced a significant drop in real GDP in 2020 due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, followed by a moderate recovery. The JIP 2023 covers this period.

The links below provide notes (in Japanese) on the revisions made in the JIP Database 2018. However, for a more detailed explanation of the estimation methods, see Kyoji Fukao (ed.), “Service Sangyo no Seisansei to Nihon Keizai: JIP Database niyoru Jissho Bunseki to Teigen [Service Sector Productivity and the Japanese Economy: An Empirical Analysis Using the JIP Database,” University of Tokyo Press, 2021 (in Japanese).

The JIP Database 2023 was compiled by the following scholars.

Annual input-output tables

  • TAHARA, Shinji (Chiba University of Commerce)
  • MATSUURA, Toshiyuki (Keio University)
  • MAKINO,Tatsuji (Hitotsubashi and RIETI)
  • KIM, YoungGak (Senshu University)
  • KWON, Hyeog Ug (Nihon University and RIETI)
  • FUKAO, Kyoji (Hitotsubashi University, IDE-JETRO, and RIETI)

Capital service input data

  • MIYAGAWA, Tsutomu (Gakushuin University and RIETI)
  • INUI, Tomohiko (Gakushuin University and RIETI)
  • IKEUCHI, Kenta (RIETI)
  • ISHIKAWA, Takayuki (Rissho University and (until December 31, 2022) RIETI)
  • ISHIZUKI, Noriyuki (Keio University and (until March 31, 2022) RIETI)

Labor input data

  • TOKUI, Joji (Shinshu University)
  • MAKINO, Tatsuji (Hitotsubashi and RIETI)

Supplementary tables

  • ITO, Keiko (Chiba University): Share of workers by occupation
  • HANEDA, Sho (Nihon University): Share of workers by occupation
  • INUI, Tomohiko (Gakushuin University and RIETI): Regulation index
  • MATSUURA, Toshiyuki (Keio University): Outward FDI statistics

Investment and capital stock in intangible assets

  • MIYAGAWA, Tsutomu (Gakushuin University and RIETI)
  • TAKIZAWA, Miho (Gakushuin University)
  • TONOGI, Konomi (Rissho University)
  • ISHIKAWA, Takayuki (Rissho University and (until December 31, 2022) RIETI)

In earlier versions of the JIP Database, the following intangible assets -- research and development, mineral exploitation and appraisal, and computer software -- were included in the supplementary tables. In the JIP Database 2023, like in the JIP 2021, these are now included in the capital service input data. As for extending the estimation of the remaining intangible assets, we aim to do so by the end of FY2023.

The original version of the JIP Database -- the ESRI/Hi-Stat JIP Database 2003 -- was compiled in collaboration with the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI), Cabinet Office.

The key characteristics of the JIP Database 2023, like earlier versions, include the following:

  • Both the database itself and the underlying original data are defined as public property and thus, in principle, will be made available to the general public.
  • The JIP Database 2023 forms part of the EU KLEMS project, the EU's World Input-Output Database (WIOD) project, the Asia KLEMS project, and the World KLEMS project. By estimating TFP by industry for the major EU member states, the United States, South Korea, and other countries, these projects make possible international productivity comparisons by industry, including for Japan.
