~Japan Center for Economic Research Selects Chief Economist Koyama as Outstanding Forecaster~
Deutsche Bank today announced that Kentaro Koyama, Chief Economist, has been recognised as an "Outstanding Forecaster" for fiscal year 2024 by the Japan Center for Economic Research (JCER).
In its 21st annual performance evaluation for fiscal year 2024, the ESP Forecast Survey team, which assesses the performance of economists from 28 participating institutions, has announced its top performing forecasters.
In recognition of his consistently superior forecasting accuracy, Koyama was selected as an "Outstanding Forecaster" by the Japan Center for Economic Research (JCER). This honor was awarded based on his high-level performance across eight key metrics, including real gross domestic product (GDP) and consumer price index growth.
According to Koyama, analyzing the economy, economic policy, and financial markets in an integrated manner is key. “This integrated approach is particularly important for an economist at a securities firm,” he said. “After conducting economic analysis, I constantly ask myself ‘so what,’ and always strive to consider the implications for both economic policy and financial markets.”
