It is the oldest magazine in Japan, not only an economic magazine but also a weekly magazine. We "visualize" the complex structure of modern society and provide information for decision-making for those who are responsible for steering the Japanese economy. Every issue features 40-50 pages of ultra-deep digging specials, ranging from macroeconomics, corporate/industrial analysis to familiar fields such as medical care, nursing care, and education. In addition, it is full of useful information such as fixed columns by prominent authors, news, and company reports.
