Lowering FX margin requirements?
Hello, I am Nikkei OP Boy, the administrator.
Thank you very much for visiting this blog.
I would like to provide information that can be of help to everyone, so please support me.
Now, the theme this time isFX Margin Trading.
The Nikkei has reported that the Financial Services Agency is considering lowering the leverage ratio for FX margin trading.
☆ From a maximum of 25 times to about 10 times
☆ In order to reduce the risk for individual investors and financial institutions
The risk for financial institutions would be reduced, but financial institutions are professionals, right?
I don’t want them to be involved every step of the way.
Conversely, if you can’t even manage such things, it would be better to shut down such financial institutions.
Also, there is no information on when the system will be revised, but the presence of Mrs. Watanabe (a synonym for Japanese individual investors) will diminish.
More than that, there are many things I’d like to see done, such as allowing profits and losses from futures/options and FX to be netted with spot stock, or enabling futures/options and FX to be handled in a specific account.
There is also the issue of ongoing savings accounts like Tsumitate NISA, but
the way of thinking is off, Fiscal Agency for Financial Services.
Note) The above is my personal opinion and is intended solely to improve financial literacy. Therefore, it is not created for investment solicitation purposes. The ultimate investment decision should be made at your own risk.
