In Fiscal 2013, the economy has seen recovery by the three major economic policies - "the bold financial policy", "the agile financial policy" and "the growth strategy that evokes private investment" implemented by the government. JIRA has been affected by this tendency as well. Furthermore, the restoration and the reconstruction of the medical infrastructure in the areas stricken by the Great East Japan Earthquake, the revision of the reimbursement medical fees and the acceleration of purchasing before the increase of the consumption tax, increased the domestic demand for JIRA products to 112% (407.1 billion yen) of the previous fiscal year result.
Moreover, the government growth strategy, such as "the Japan Revitalization strategy", places high level of expectations on the medical device industry. The political parties and the government agencies are focusing on overseas deployment and deregulation of the medical devices. |
