Concept and Calculation Method of BSI
  • The BSI is developed by surveying entrepreneurs’ assessments of their current business conditions and prospects to identify economic trends and to forecast upcoming business conditions. Each company’s response is quantified according to the following formula.
  • Range 0 ≤ BSI ≤ 200
    Index value 100 or higher: Improvement in business conditions or an increase in consumer spending
    Index value less than 100: deterioration in business conditions or a decrease in consumer spending
