MAIN
SERVICES
Domestic OTC FX margin trading system & liquidity provision services
With enactment of the amended Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act in 1998, over-the-counter FX margin trading has seen remarkable growth in recent years. On the back of strong customer demands, FX has become both an asset class and a critical means of asset management. We offer a FX market platform with transparency, competitive spreads, and abundant liquidity at all times. We also provide user-friendly trading systems for individual investors to access FX markets in a reliable and convenient manner.
Our coverage network boasts an unrivaled number of counterparties (currently 32). Beyond just financial institutions such as banks and securities firms, we feature a diverse array of counterparty types, including non-bank liquidity providers (LPs). This distinctive strength enables us to deliver liquidity across more than 30 currency pairs. We currently provide system infrastructure and price liquidity for over-the-counter FX trading within the SBI Group. All FX transactions from group companies, including SBI Securities and SBI FXTRADE, are centralized through us, achieving an industry-leading share of trading volume.

We aggregate foreign exchange flows from a wide range of backgrounds
We engage in various types of foreign exchange transactions with numerous group companies, including SBI Holdings and SBI Securities.

This enables us to deliver faster, more competitive pricing at lower fees. With SBI Securities’ 'Zero Revolution' driving customer growth, our FX trading volume continues to rise. Recently, the addition of SBI Shinsei Bank to the group has further increased inquiries and consultations regarding FX transactions. Beyond merely providing price liquidity, we also foster active personnel exchanges within the group.
