British English speakers are slightly more conservative with the use of 'impact' as a verb, preferring 'have an impact on'. In Japanese business, 'impact' is often used as a loanword (インパクト) to sound modern and global. German speakers often use 'Impact' in academic or scientific contexts, but it is considered a 'Denglisch' term in everyday speech.
