Sony Bank - Lowest and Highest FX Margins
BER Benchmark ranks the Sony Bank 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 Sony Bank's rates
Sony Bank publishes a middle rate plus customer selling and buying rates. For yen converted into foreign currency, BER uses the bank's customer selling rate. For foreign currency converted back into yen, BER uses its customer buying rate.
BER validates the complete JPY table, requires the selling rate to remain above the middle rate and the buying rate below it, and rejects stale or structurally changed responses.
Sony Bank exchange-rate questions
Are these international money-transfer rates?
No. The tracked source is Sony Bank's online foreign-currency deposit exchange table. Other Sony Bank products can use different pricing or fees.
Does BER show both directions?
Yes, when the bank publishes both customer selling and buying prices for the currency.
Why is offshore Chinese yuan missing?
Sony Bank labels that source row CNH. BER does not merge offshore CNH into its CNY currency, so the row is deliberately excluded.
