Financial Services Agency

The establishment of the Financial Services Agency is to ensure the stability of Japan's financial system, and at the same time protect the interests of depositors, policyholders, securities and other investors, and promote financial facilitation. The Financial Services Agency is the main regulatory authority for foreign exchange margin business. Japan’s financial supervision implements mixed supervision, that is, the Financial Services Agency exclusively supervises the banking, securities, insurance and non-financial institutions. The supervision of foreign exchange margin business institutions mainly includes regular inspections (semi-annual or year-end closing, etc.), inspections at any time, and traders providing transaction reports at the end of each month.
