Steps

STEP 1

Determine your deposit amount.

Minimum amount of 1,000,000 yen
Minimum amount of 500,000 yen*

  • *For transaction via online banking

STEP 2

Select your counter currency:

USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, NZD, CAD, CHF

STEP 3

Determine your deposit term:

1 week*, 2 weeks, 1 month, and 3 months; and other terms as determined by SMBC Trust Bank.* In principle, 1 week is available only on online banking.

STEP 4

Determine your Strike Price by setting your differential.

The Strike Price is calculated by subtracting your selected differential from the Spot Price.

STEP 5

Your interest rate is now set.

  • *Selectable differential is within the range set by SMBC Trust Bank and subject to market conditions and may change without prior notice.

For example,

  • Principal amount: ¥3 million
  • Deposit term: 1-month
  • Counter currency: US dollar
  • Differential: ¥1
  • Annual interest rate after tax: 2.000%

  • The Spot Price equals the exchange rate determined by SMBC Trust Bank based on the exchange rate as quoted on the interbank market.
  • The Strike Price is calculated by subtracting your selected differential from the Spot Price. If the exchange rate of Yen against your selected counter currency at 3:00 P.M. on your maturity date indicates yen appreciation equal to or beyond the Strike Price, your principal will be converted into your selected foreign currency (counter currency) at your selected Strike Price when paid.
  • The differential is the rate range to be used to set your Strike Price from the Spot Price. Selectable differential is within the range set by SMBC Trust Bank and subject to market conditions and may change without prior notice.
  • Counter currency : USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, NZD, CAD, CHF

Point 1

Whether the currency conversion occurs or not depends on the spot rate at 3:00 P.M. on the maturity day. Even if the market exchange rate exceeds the strike price during the deposit period, funds will neither be exchanged for the counter currency, nor will a decision be made to exchange for the counter currency, at that time.

Point 2

When the exchange rate of Yen against the counter currency indicates Yen depreciation beyond the Strike Price, and you are to receive your principal in Yen, you lose the opportunity for a foreign exchange profit that you could have enjoyed had you made a foreign currency deposit at the time of deposit.

Point 3

  • Please note that your principal will be converted into your selected counter currency at the Strike Price preset by you at the time of deposit, not at the exchange rate prevailing on the maturity date. Since the Strike Price is usually more unfavorable than the foreign exchange rate prevailing in the market at maturity, a loss of principal may occur when you convert your received foreign currency funds back into Yen on the maturity date.
  • When you convert your received foreign currency funds back into Yen, the TTB rate specified by SMBC Trust Bank will be applied to the conversion. The TTB rate includes the foreign exchange commission prescribed by SMBC Trust Bank.
  • Please note that the foreign exchange rates and interest rates shown above are used as examples. Actual foreign exchange rates and interest rates that will be applied to your transactions will differ from these examples.
  • In principle, interest is subject to a 20.315% withholding tax (National tax 15.315% and Local tax 5%) for individual customers. Comprehensive income taxation applies to corporate customers. The tax rate etc. may change in the future due to reasons such as the revision of tax laws.
