Advertisers can expect higher-quality branding effect while paying only for ad placements that meet GroupM\u2019s standards. In addition, this new standard leverages IAS capabilities to blocks fraudulent impressions (ad fraud) and ensures brand safety (ad placement quality), enabling advertisers to protect their brands and budgets from diverse threats in digital ads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cGroupM Japan has set its own standards for verifying advertising impact to help advertisers roll out safer and more secure digital campaigns\u201d, said <strong>Taro Fujinaka, IAS, Representative Director of Japan<\/strong>. \u201cCooperation and collaboration between the demand side (advertisers) and supply side (media companies) is essential for the development of the digital ad market. We believe that this initiative by GroupM Japan and endorsed by Japanese media companies, will have a positive effect on the entire industry and provide trust and transparency to the digital industry\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GroupM\u2019s new viewability standard requires that 100 percent of a display ads area be in view for one second or longer. This is more demanding than the minimum standard specified by the Media Rating Council (MRC), which only requires that 50 percent of the ad area be in view for one second or longer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cMore and more advertisers in Japan are likely to urge that transparency and safety of digital ads be ensured\u201d, said <strong>Naoyuki Aragaki, Chief Trading Officer, GroupM Japan<\/strong>. \u201cWe appreciate that IAS, and leading media companies, have endorsed and supported our mission as the world\u2019s No. 1 media agency to provide advertisers with digital ads based on safe and adequate billing systems. We will further strengthen our initiatives.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Taro Fujinaka, the Representative Director of Japan, IAS, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">said,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0&#8220;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This new service has been endorsed by Four leading media companies in Japan, The Asahi Shimbun, Nikkei Business Publications, and Toyo Keizai. Along with the launch of the service, we will start offering products based on VCPM (viewable cost per mille) that meet GroupM\u2019s standards. IAS and GroupM Japan will further promote the healthy development of digital advertising market in Japan, seeking service endorsements by more media companies.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This partnership has been widely covered and recognized by the key industry partners and trade press in Japan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt is true that performance KPIs such as CTR and CPA have been a main focus in Japan digital marketing industry for long. Now, as ad technology progresses rapidly, viewability can be fully measured so that publishers themselves providing its data would give great impact on Japan\u2019s digital marketing.\u201d\u00a0 <\/span><\/i><b><i>Nobuo Miyazaki, Director, New Business Incubation Office, Asahi Shimbun<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cNikkei Digital has been providing viewable ad inventories for non-first view ads. We strongly support GroupM\u2019s direction of \u2018high-value ads should be transacted at an appropriate price.\u201d\u00a0 <\/span><\/i><i><b>Yasuhiro Kunitomo, Manager, Nikkei-ID and Advertising Unit, Nihon Keizai Shimbun<br \/>\n<\/b><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n\u201cVoices and needs for viewability impressions from global clients have rapidly increased so we decided to produce a new service in collaboration with IAS and GroupM.\u201d <\/span><\/i><b><i>Tomoyuki Onizawa, General Manager, Digital Marketing Group, Nikkei Business Publications, Inc<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cDigital transparency is essential for trusted media.
