(Fuller), a leading mobile development and data provider in Japan, will start developing an in-depth alternative data service for international financial institutions featuring smartphone usage data form the Japanese market.

Together with Fuller, NRI will launch research and development on Japanese alternative data service, specifically on insights into the Japanese markets and corporate performance through mobile device usage data.

Smartphone usage data has increasingly been utilized as a metric for market performance across industries. Alongside technology and financial services, usage can also be a strong performance metric for the retail sector. Ownership of connected devices have become mainstream and most consumer industries have invested in mobile applications. Financial institutions utilize the data for their investment strategy by analyzing the relationships services and mobile users, including assessing corporate performance by comparing numbers of users and volume of usage.

Fuller is a leader in mobile usage data in Japan and holds a vast pool of smartphone data. In collaboration with Fuller, NRI aims to provide analysis data on payment made with QR codes on mobile application and the subscribers can access the data on the website.
