Japan’s economy and society are at a significant turning point. Having emerged from a long period of deflation, the shift from savings to investment is in full swing. In companies, market-conscious management has taken root, and the torrent of technological innovation, exemplified by artificial intelligence, continues unabated. The door to a new era is opening.
Established in 1971, QUICK is the Nikkei Group’s financial information service. In response to changes in the business environment, we have gone from delivering financial information via terminals to providing financial solutions that incorporate tools, services, and systems. More clients outside of finance are now making use of the information we provide, and we are growing our data solutions business, analyzing data to help solve problems faced by our customers.
Our goal is to use our strengths in finance and data to provide value to financial institutions, companies, and local governments by delving deep into their businesses and operations and crafting solutions to their management and policy challenges. With our unfailing track record of delivering accurate information over more than half a century, our greatest asset is our clients’ trust. I am committed to building on this foundation to become a trusted partner, working closely with our clients to create new value together.
To this end, we must continue to innovate and take on challenges, consistently incorporating cutting-edge technologies and knowledge and delivering new products and services to meet our customers’ high expectations. You can rest assured that we will never stop moving forward.
Motohiro Matsumoto, President, Chief Executive Officer
