Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

金融機関の貸出や預金が地域経済にどのような役割を果たしているかという点は、日本経済の動向を理解する上で重要である。しかしながら、都道府県ごとに金融機関の貸出や預金がどの程度集中しているか、都道府県間で金融機関の預金が貸出の形でどのように移動しているかといった点は、データの不足によりこれまで明らかではなかった。今回のプロジェクトは、都道府県ごとの貸出市場・預金市場の集中度、貸出・預金を通じた地域間資金循環指標を日本で初めて網羅的に作成・公表した。これにより、地域市場の現状を評価する客観的な指標を得ることができ、政策立案にも役立つことが期待される。
