日本百年企業倒閉、停業數量創新高

這是一檔視頻動新聞欄目,實時追蹤全球外企動態,周一到周五5位主播幫你解讀熱點,中、英雙語呈現豐富資訊。

主播說:

說到世界範圍內擁有長壽企業最多的國家,您一定會想到日本。這些企業現狀如何呢?據日本商業信用調查公司帝國數據銀行的最新統計,2018財年擁有100年以上歷史的老牌企業,其倒閉、歇業及解散數量為465家,刷新了2000財年以來的最高紀錄。

數據顯示,從倒閉數量來看,2018財年同比增加28%,增至101家。從行業分類來看,零售業的倒閉、停業及解散數量最多,合計達167家,佔所有行業的36%。其次是製造業,有103家,創下2000財年以來的最高值。據該公司統計,截至2019年1月,日本國內擁有100年以上歷史的企業共有3萬3千多家。

堅持“顧客和國貨至上”的價值觀、恪守“誠信經營”的理念,加上做到極致的匠人精神,成就了日本百年、甚至千年企業。分析認為,日本人手短缺導致企業難以找到接班人,原材料費用上漲,是造成當前這些長壽企業難以為繼的主要原因。

摩根大通推出營運資金指數

J.P. Morgan Launches Working Capital Index

摩根大通宣布推出摩根大通營運資金指數,該指數可用於企業與業內公司對標營運資金表現。

J.P. Morgan announced the launch of the J.P. Morgan Working Capital Index, which enables companies to benchmark their working capital performance against industry peers.

對多數尋求優化營運資金管理的公司來說,與同業對標通常是其邁出的第一步。然而由於缺少獲取行業數據的可靠渠道,可以進行高效業內對標的工具非常有限。

Industry benchmarking is typically the first step for many companies looking to optimize their working capital, but there are limited tools available to do this effectively, primarily because of the lack of access to reliable industry data.

摩根大通營運資金指數追蹤並整合標準普爾1500綜合指數成份股的營運資金指標,其中包括規模和影響力在全球均名列前茅的多家公司,外界可以通過該指數更好地了解這些公司的營運資金表現。

By capturing and consolidating the working capital metrics from the companies listed on the S&P Composite 1500 index, it provides valuable insights for firms into the working capital performance of some the world’s largest and most influential companies.

在推出新指數的同時,摩根大通還發布了一份報告,解析2011年至2018年的營運資金主要趨勢。

In addition to the launch of the new index, J.P. Morgan also published a report on working capital trends from 2011 to 2018.

摩根大通報告顯示,2011年至2018年,在優化營運資金方面取得顯著進展的前三個行業是公用事業、耐用消費品及物流;同期營運資金管理表現不佳的行業包括航空航天和國防、半導體、傳媒。

The industries that have shown the most improvement in optimizing working capital between 2011 and 2018 are utilities, consumer staples and logistics. Sectors that have been challenged over the same period include aerospace and defense, semiconductors and media, according to the report.
