Abstract: On the First of December 2008, the Public Interest Institution System was drastically reformed. The former system has been effectively based on the Civil Code since 1898 and public interest institutions have been providing various services to society such as scientific research and development, art and culture promotion, environment protection and international cooperation. However, the reform undertakings could not be conducted by making use of the statistics that correctly described their activities in the Japanese economy and society because there were no such statistics, official or private, that would show the activities of public interest institutions by industry or number of persons engaged. With the aim to developing such statistics, we carried out exact matching between the administrative records and the official statistical survey data to make exact matching data. Administrative records have been accumulated through the supervising activities of the government. The Establishment and Enterprise Census, which is conducted every five years by the government, covers all establishments residing in Japan. The census data include the industrial classification and employee data which are comparable to other official statistics. Among 25,541 administrative records (25,541 public interest institutions), 66.4% was matched with the census data by computer. With the help of human observation and field surveys, a matching rate of 67.1% was accomplished. The matching rate was low for the institutions without regular employees; a 79.5% matching rate was achieved for the institutions with more than two regular employees. The total annual income of matched institutions covers 87.9% of the total annual income of all public interest institutions. The followings tables are presented as new statistics: ・Distribution of institutions by major industrial group and by the number of persons engaged ・Number of persons engaged and annual income by major industrial group ・Assets by major industrial group and by institution type (corporation or foundation) ・Comparison with the other statistics; tax statistics, statistics on private incorporated companies
