Discontinuation of the Time Series Data of "Central Bank Survey of Foreign Exchange and Derivatives Market Activity: Amounts Outstanding, Japan"

August 24, 2022

The Bank of Japan has decided to cease the publication of "Long-Term Time-Series Data (Amounts Outstanding)" for the "Central Bank Survey of Foreign Exchange and Derivatives Market Activity" (conducted on a triennial basis), given users' limited need and the availability of alternative data sources.

Among the results of the triennial survey, the amounts outstanding as of end-June 2022 will be identical with those of "Regular Derivatives Market Statistics in Japan at end-June 2022" which are scheduled to be released on September 9, 2022, due to the identical coverage of both reporting dealers and items. Therefore, in case the time-series data of the survey are needed, please refer to the "Regular Derivatives Market Statistics in Japan," of which the base for collected data is consistent with that for the latest figures of the triennial survey. The time-series data are available in "BOJ Time-Series Data Search."
