Purpose

The Japanese foreign exchange market is an international forex market that developed after World War II. As one of the world's major financial centers, the Japanese forex market is characterized by large trading volumes, a wide variety of trading instruments, and diverse market participants. In order to help investors or practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in the region, the on-site inspection team traveled to Japan for a field visit.

Process

This on-site investigation team went to Japan as planned to physically visit forex broker Interactive Brokers. According to public information, its office address is 3-2-5 Kasumigaseki, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.

A professional and experienced site visit team, with a sense of mission to strictly vet for investors, followed a meticulous plan and went to Japan. They conducted an on-site verification of the broker InteractiveBrokers, which claims to be located at 3-2-5 Kasumigaseki, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.

The site visit personnel arrived smoothly at the target building, which is located in the center of Tokyo. It is a super luxury office building with a bustling surrounding environment and a strong commercial atmosphere. Many large companies are gathered here. The information of InteractiveBrokers can be clearly seen on the directory board at the front desk inside the building.

The site visit personnel entered the lobby of the building, explained their purpose to the security guard, and obtained entry permission smoothly.

After arriving at the target floor, the site visit personnel found that the office area of InteractiveBrokers had clear signage. However, due to a secondary access control on the floor and no prior appointment, the site visit personnel were unable to enter the interior. They were also unable to take photos of the front desk and its LOGO. This office is not a shared office.

Through the glass door, although the full interior of the company could not be seen, one could sense that the overall environment was relatively high-end, consistent with its positioning as a well-known forex broker.

Therefore, after the site visit, it was confirmed that broker InteractiveBrokers exists at the above address.

At its publicly displayed business address, the broker's company name and other information can be seen, indicating that the broker has a genuine business premises.
