(1) Price Fluctuation Risk

Fluctuations in currency rates may cause a loss. Since the transaction amount is much larger than the deposited exchange margin, these fluctuations may cause a loss exceeding the deposited exchange margin, depending on market conditions.

(2) Credit Risk

TFX has introduced the clearing system under which it acts as a counterparty to a TFX Trading Member in Click 365 and TFX segregates all exchange margins deposited by Customer; therefore, all deposited margins are in principle protected. Provided, however, that non-payments by a TFX Trading Member etc., due to changes in credit status or bankruptcy by a TFX Trading Member etc., may cause delays in completing refund procedures or unexpected loss.

(3) System Failure Risk

If a failure occurs in the system of TFX or a TFX Trading Member, or network system among Customers, TFX Trading Members and TFX, delivery of market information, etc, placement of order or execution thereof may be delayed or become impossible, and as a result, an unexpected loss may be caused.

(4) Risks of changes in tax systems, laws, etc.

Changes in tax systems, laws or their future interpretation may cause unfavorable results.

(5) Interest Rate Fluctuation Risk

Fluctuations in the interest rate of Japanese Yen or that of the currency underlying the relevant transaction may decrease the swap point of Click 365 to be received, or increase the same to be paid. With Click 365, if the interest rate levels of two countries comprising a position are reversed, the party holding the position to receive swap points may be required to make payments under such transaction. As to certain currency underlying the relevant transaction, various factors such as correlation between supply and demand of such currency in the foreign exchange market may also increase or decrease swap points or may cause the reversal of receipt or payment of swap points, notwithstanding the fluctuation of interest rates. There could even be a case where an investor has a long position in a currency with a higher interest rate but is required to pay swap points.

(6) Liquidity Risk

TFX has introduced the Market-Making Method for Click 365 , in which Market Maker offers ask and bid prices at which Customers may execute a transaction. It may become difficult or impossible for Market Maker to provide the ask and bid prices in a stable and sustainable manner, depending on certain conditions such as acts of God, war, political change or change in foreign exchange policies or in laws and rules of the relevant country, sharp fluctuations in the currency market, etc., and as a result, Customers may not be able to trade at expected prices and suffer an unexpected loss therefrom.Transactions involving a certain currency in Click 365 may not regularly be traded on a day on which the market in a country of such currency is closed for business. Further, trading of transactions involving certain currency pairs may become impossible, where any abnormal circumstances occur, such as where foreign exchanges adopt certain measures or policies or where the relevant country implements restrictions for the cessation of currency exchanges or closure of foreign exchange markets. In addition, even under normal conditions, transactions in the currencies with lower liquidity may cause a loss to Customer due to causes such that Customer is not able to execute a transaction at the desired price.

(7) Currency Conversion Risk

Since Cross Currency Pairs transaction (foreign currency pairs trading) is not settled in the relevant foreign currency but in Japanese Yen, it entails an exchange rate risk not only against the relevant foreign currency but also against Japanese Yen at the time of settlement.
