                      years), the private vendor data are used as an alternative data source of
                      the  BIS  IDSS.  It  is  noted  that  since  the  BIS  IDSS  has  fewer  number  of
                      sectoral  classifications  than  those  of  the  DGI-2  template,  the  same
                      composition ratio is applied to the sub-sectors with that of their parent
                      sector.

                  features revealed from tentative
                  results.
                      Looking  at  the  overall
                  picture   of   domestic    debt
                  securities  issued  by  residents,
                  the  general  government  issued
                  bonds     have    the    largest
                  proportion, more than 70%  of
                                             7
                  the  total  amount,  followed  by   NFC: Non-financial corporations, ODC: Other deposit-
                  the  bonds  issued  by  other     taking corporations,
                                                    OFC: Other financial corporations, GG: General
                  financial corporations and non-   government,
                  financial corporations (Chart 1).   ICPF: Insurance corporations and pension funds
                  Major  issuers  in  other financial   (Chart 2) Proportion of domestic currency
                  corporations   include   public                      issuer
                  captive financial institutions such
                  as Japan Expressway Holding and
                  Debt  Repayment  Agency,  and
                  government financial institutions
                                                  8
                  such  as  the  Japan  Housing
                  Finance Agency.

                      The proportion of domestic currency issues in Chart 2 shows that more
                  than 90% of the total debt securities are denominated in domestic currency.








                  7  If government bonds issued by the Special Account of Fiscal Investment and Loan Program
                  Fund (classified in OFCs) were added to the general government issues, the share would be
                  increased up to about 80%.
                    Public captive financial institutions are defined in the FFA as entities which raise funds only
                  8
                  from specific sources such as government and do not plan to raise funds from markets, as well
                  as those organizations which raise funds from markets but only invest in a limited group of
                  destinations or operations.
