2. Estimation of Economic Effects (Interim Report)

Revisions to analog regulations are expected to lead to cost reductions through greater efficiency in administrative work and market expansion through the adoption of digital technologies. We have also published estimates of these figures. As of September 2023 (2023), an interim report has been published.

Impact on GDP

The direct effects of increased demand associated with revising analog regulations are expected to be approximately 0.6 trillion yen. In addition, the indirect effects of improved operational efficiency are expected to be approximately 3 trillion yen, resulting in a total economic effect of approximately 3.6 trillion yen.
* The figures may change as a result of further scrutiny.

The cost reduction effect is about 3.8 trillion yen, of which cost effectiveness is about 2.9 trillion yen and technology introduction cost is about 0.9 trillion yen.

Cost reduction effect

Revising analog regulations is expected to reduce work by approximately 580 million hours (equivalent to approximately 250,000 people), which is expected to reduce costs by approximately 3.8 trillion yen. At the same time, the cost of introducing technology through the review is expected to be approximately 0.9 trillion yen, and the cost-benefit ratio (the value obtained by subtracting the cost of introducing technology from the cost of reduction) is estimated to be approximately 2.9 trillion yen.
* The figures may change as a result of further scrutiny.

The impact on GDP is about 3.6 trillion yen, of which the indirect effect is about 3 trillion yen and the direct effect is about 0.6 trillion yen.

Breakdown of cost-effectiveness by analog regulation item: 1.907 trillion yen for visual regulation, on-site audit, and periodic inspection; 130 billion yen for face-to-face training; 420 billion yen for full-time staff; 2 billion yen for written presentation; 3 billion yen for visiting and reading; and 420 billion yen for storage media.
