SMBC - Lowest and Highest FX Margins
BER Benchmark ranks the SMBC currency corridors currently monitored for Japanese yen transfers by their margin versus the mid-market rate. The tables below highlight the lowest-margin and highest-margin corridors for a JPY 10,000 transaction.
How BER reads SMBC's rates
When Japanese yen is exchanged into foreign currency, BER uses SMBC's published selling rate. When foreign currency is exchanged into yen, BER uses the buying rate.
SMBC publishes Thai baht per 100 units. BER divides that row by 100 before converting it into BER's standard foreign-currency-units-per-yen display.
SMBC exchange-rate questions
Does BER show both directions?
Yes, where SMBC publishes valid buying and selling prices for the currency.
Is the THB rate unusually large?
The source quotes 100 Thai baht. BER normalises it to one baht before displaying or comparing the rate.
Are these remittance rates?
No. The tracked source is explicitly SMBC's counter and telephone foreign-currency deposit rate table.
