Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a proposal of a system for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges (FXs), which is a new financial system that improves a foreign-currency deposit rate, complies with a Basel regulation and serves for reinforcement of net banking, and more particularly relates to a collective-FX-dealing server, a method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, and a program product stored in a computer-readable recording medium for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, which are used in this system (CDFE system) for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges.
  • FXs foreign exchanges
  • a usual shareholder capital namely, a common share and a published reserve fund or an internal reserve are main elements of a core capital.
  • a Basel regulation that is a bank regulation as a world standard defines the minimum level of the core capital with respect to the total assets of a bank and performs a severe condition on a capital procurement means. In accordance with a new regulation, the minimum core capital rate is scheduled to be made higher in future. Therefore, for international standard banks, accommodations to the Basel regulation are required.
  • each bank calculates the foreign-currency deposit and improves the foreign-currency deposit rate, each bank is required to employ staff to handle the receipt of the foreign-currency deposits.
  • the process of receiving and settling the foreign-currency deposits can include sending out a society for worldwide interbank financial telecommunication (SWIFT) message or using the Bank of Japan financial network system. Moreover, in order to establish the system for operating the foreign-currency deposit, the investment of hundreds millions is required.
  • each bank is required to carry out the position management of the foreign currency and a money interest rate through the use of a management function unique to each bank and carry out a cover deal for a plurality of banks in an interbank market.
  • the cover deal implies that in order to reduce the exchange risk, a transaction opposite to a transaction which should be performed on a customer by a financial institution is executed. Since the cover deal is executed, the transaction between each other is cancelled out, thereby reducing the exchange risk.
  • the B regional bank does not perform the cover deal for the sake of the personal customer A. Then, it is mixed with the cover deal for a legal person sector at a rough estimate, or dollar demands are heaped every other day or every few days, and then, the cover deal is performed, or this becomes in a situation that the cover deal cannot be fairly performed. In short, the B regional bank becomes risky because it is positioned to be influenced by a dollar exchange rate during that time.
  • the term "risk” implies the risk in the financial world, namely, "uncertainty”.
  • each bank performs a settlement instruction on all of the foregoing banks. Those foreign currency remittances are carried out by the fund settlements between the banks, through the SWIFT hat serves as a network of a message communication with regard to the national transaction of the financial institution. Then, each bank carries out the businesses such as a settlement support, a contract management, a foreign currency settlement account inspection and the like, which are related to the foreign exchange task. Then, the foreign currency settlement between the banks is carried out in the transaction in the net after individual transactions are cancelled out. However, its service charge is cheap, as compared with the service charge for the customer.
  • a foreign bond management of a large institutional investor is usually carried out between five million dollars and ten million dollars.
  • the service charge is between 0.02% and 0.00%, the high service charge is required for the small-lot transaction.
  • the service charge between 0.4% and 4% is typically required for the transaction of a 100,000 dollar unit that is carried out by a personal investor.
  • the bank when considering a benefit from the foreign-currency deposit, considers the interest rate and the service charge as one set.
  • the bank such as the regional bank level and the like, which cannot properly perform the cover deal and cannot sufficiently achieve the reduction in the risk caused by the execution of the cover deal, sets the service charge high, as the buffer of the risk.
  • the foregoing bank cannot help setting the interest rate low because the transaction amount of the foreign currency is small and the management is inefficient.
  • the managements of the foreign currencies are various depending on the respective banks. However, in order to get management gains and returns, there is a case that it is turned over by considering a market risk/price fluctuation risk.
  • the bank on the side that entrusts the bank agency service has a duty of supervising whether or not the regional bank or the like responsible for the bank agency service correctly carries out the business, as necessary, in accordance with the supervision guide of the Financial Services Agency.
  • the bank on the side that entrusts the bank agency service also has a direct damage compensation duty for the customer and the like.

Description

COLLECTIVE-FX-DEALING SERVER, METHOD FOR COLLECTIVELY DEALING IN FOREIGN EXCHANGES, AND PROGRAM FOR COLLECTIVELY DEALING IN FOREIGN EXCHANGES
This application claims priority to Japanese Application No. 2011-169387, filed August 2, 2011, entitled "Collective-FX-Dealing Server, Method for Collectively Dealing in Foreign Exchanges, and Program Product Stored in a Computer-Readable Recording Medium for Collectively Dealing in Foreign Exchanges," which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The present invention relates to a proposal of a system for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges (FXs), which is a new financial system that improves a foreign-currency deposit rate, complies with a Basel regulation and serves for reinforcement of net banking, and more particularly relates to a collective-FX-dealing server, a method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, and a program product stored in a computer-readable recording medium for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, which are used in this system (CDFE system) for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges.
A usual shareholder capital, namely, a common share and a published reserve fund or an internal reserve are main elements of a core capital. However, a Basel regulation that is a bank regulation as a world standard defines the minimum level of the core capital with respect to the total assets of a bank and performs a severe condition on a capital procurement means. In accordance with a new regulation, the minimum core capital rate is scheduled to be made higher in future. Therefore, for international standard banks, accommodations to the Basel regulation are required.
On the other hand, in Japan, there are one hundred or more banks, including regional banks and the like. However, 99 % of their deposits are yen deposit accounts (D/As). In Japan, the ratio of foreign-currency deposits against entire deposit is about 0.6%. If each bank calculates the foreign-currency deposit and improves the foreign-currency deposit rate, each bank is required to employ staff to handle the receipt of the foreign-currency deposits. The process of receiving and settling the foreign-currency deposits can include sending out a society for worldwide interbank financial telecommunication (SWIFT) message or using the Bank of Japan financial network system. Moreover, in order to establish the system for operating the foreign-currency deposit, the investment of hundreds millions is required.
Moreover, each bank is required to carry out the position management of the foreign currency and a money interest rate through the use of a management function unique to each bank and carry out a cover deal for a plurality of banks in an interbank market. "The cover deal" implies that in order to reduce the exchange risk, a transaction opposite to a transaction which should be performed on a customer by a financial institution is executed. Since the cover deal is executed, the transaction between each other is cancelled out, thereby reducing the exchange risk.
For example, when under assumption that a personal customer A puts a dollar foreign-currency deposit for one hundred thousand yens in a B regional bank, the personal customer A purchases the dollars for one hundred thousand yens, the B regional bank is required to purchase the dollars for one hundred thousand yens, for the sake of the personal customer A through the use of an interbank transaction. Thus, this deal of the B regional bank becomes "the cover deal". When the cover deal is performed, the B regional bank does not receive the influence on profits and losses in the account of its bank, even if a foreign exchange rate is later raised or lowered. However, the interbank deal of such a small lot is not usually performed. Typically, it is performed at a unit of ten million dollars (euro), and even in the case of the minimum lot, it is about 1 million dollars (euro). In short, at present, the B regional bank does not perform the cover deal for the sake of the personal customer A. Then, it is mixed with the cover deal for a legal person sector at a rough estimate, or dollar demands are heaped every other day or every few days, and then, the cover deal is performed, or this becomes in a situation that the cover deal cannot be fairly performed. In short, the B regional bank becomes risky because it is positioned to be influenced by a dollar exchange rate during that time. Here, the term "risk" implies the risk in the financial world, namely, "uncertainty". When the B regional bank indefinitely remains in a situation in which it has a duty of "purchasing the dollars for one hundred thousand yens for the sake of the personal customer A", as the yen becomes cheaper, the more dollars can be purchased, and as the yen becomes higher, only the fewer dollars can be bought. In this way, the uncertain unreliable situation in which the more dollars can be purchased or cannot be purchased depending on the dollar exchange rate leads to "the risk". In this way, the personal foreign-currency deposit of the existing regional bank level is exposed to the risk at which it may be profitable or oppositely unprofitable, depending on the market price.
Also, in order to perform fund settlements in accounts held in a plurality of banks, each bank performs a settlement instruction on all of the foregoing banks. Those foreign currency remittances are carried out by the fund settlements between the banks, through the SWIFT hat serves as a network of a message communication with regard to the national transaction of the financial institution. Then, each bank carries out the businesses such as a settlement support, a contract management, a foreign currency settlement account inspection and the like, which are related to the foreign exchange task. Then, the foreign currency settlement between the banks is carried out in the transaction in the net after individual transactions are cancelled out. However, its service charge is cheap, as compared with the service charge for the customer. For example, a foreign bond management of a large institutional investor (a major bank such as this bank) is usually carried out between five million dollars and ten million dollars. However, although the service charge is between 0.02% and 0.00%, the high service charge is required for the small-lot transaction. For example, the service charge between 0.4% and 4% is typically required for the transaction of a 100,000 dollar unit that is carried out by a personal investor.
The bank, when considering a benefit from the foreign-currency deposit, considers the interest rate and the service charge as one set. However, the bank such as the regional bank level and the like, which cannot properly perform the cover deal and cannot sufficiently achieve the reduction in the risk caused by the execution of the cover deal, sets the service charge high, as the buffer of the risk. The foregoing bank cannot help setting the interest rate low because the transaction amount of the foreign currency is small and the management is inefficient. Moreover, the managements of the foreign currencies are various depending on the respective banks. However, in order to get management gains and returns, there is a case that it is turned over by considering a market risk/price fluctuation risk.
On the other hand, as an approach in which the bank, such as the regional bank or the like, recommends its own personal customer to put the foreign-currency deposit and the like, a case of entrusting a bank agency, which provides services of foreign-currency deposit for other banks, is also considered. However, when the regional bank or the like carries out the bank agency service for a global bank having a high management technique with regard to the foreign-currency deposit, it takes a considerable time to obtain an allowance for the bank agency service because of the negotiation with the Financial Services Agency and the like. Thus, the business cannot be quickly started. Also, the bank on the side that entrusts the bank agency service has a duty of supervising whether or not the regional bank or the like responsible for the bank agency service correctly carries out the business, as necessary, in accordance with the supervision guide of the Financial Services Agency. Moreover, when there is any trouble in the business of the regional bank or the like that carries out the bank agency service and consequently, a damage is generated in the customer, there is a case that the bank on the side that entrusts the bank agency service also has a direct damage compensation duty for the customer and the like.
In view of the above-mentioned problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a system (CDFE system) for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges (CDFE), in which with a scheme differing from the bank agency service, the bank of the level, such as the regional bank or the like, is not required to establish a system for operating a foreign-currency deposit, which is required to carry out an investment of hundred million units resulting from the employment of staffs for receiving the foreign-currency deposits and the independent and separate development in each bank, and the bank of the level such as the regional bank or the like is not required to individually execute the cover deal of a small money amount, and a collective-FX-dealing server, a method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, and a program product stored in a computer-readable recording medium for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, which are used in the CDFE system.
Also, an object of the present invention is to provide a CDFE system, which can reduce a risk caused by a foreign exchange fluctuation, and calculate the foreign currency at a money amount of a larger unit, and consequently get greater management-gains and returns as a whole and further achieve the simplicities of the businesses, such as the settlement instruction, the contract management and the foreign currency settlement account inspection and the like, which are related to FX business of the regional bank or the like, and can contribute to the improvement of a core capital ratio and consequently contribute to the corresponding management to the Basel regulation and lead to the improvements of a customer share and each presence of the bank of the level, such as the regional banks or the like, and a collective-FX-dealing server, a method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, and a program product stored in a computer-readable recording medium for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, which are used in the CDFE system.
In order to achieve the above-mentioned objects, a first aspect of the present invention inheres in a method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, encompassing (a) receiving a transfer-information that a customer has made a deposit of a distribution currency in a first country, amount of which corresponds to a foreign-currency deposit defined on a basis of a currency unit of a distribution currency in a second country, with a corresponding exchange charge, in an ordinary deposit account (D/A) in the first country, the ordinary D/A is assigned in a first customer-handling bank, by a registering unit configured to register multiple-currency account for the first customer-handling bank, the registering unit is provided in a controller configured to deal with multi-currency deposits, the controller is provided in a collective-FX-dealing server; (b) by the vostro-account manager, transferring the money-amount data of the distribution currency in the first country in the first customer-handling bank's account (CHBA) database, through a controller configured to deal with the multi-currency deposit, to data in an account-file of the distribution currency of the first country, the account-file is assigned in the first customer-handling bank's multi-currency-account database (CHBMCA database); (c) in view of an exchange rate defined on a basis of a currency unit of the distribution currency in the first country and the currency unit of the distribution currency in the second country, rewriting the money-amount data in the account-file of the distribution currency in the first country in the first CHBMCA database to money-amount data of an account-file of the distribution currency in the second country in the first CHBMCA database; and (d) being associated with the rewriting, by a cover deal and funding (CDF) operation unit provided in the collective-FX-dealing server, carrying out arithmetic processing for cover deal and fund management, which corresponds to the money amount in the account-file of the distribution currency in the second country, between the first country and the second country. Here, the way of election of countries such that which country shall be assigned as "the first country", and which country shall be assigned as "the second country" is optional and can be freely determined. For example, any one of countries elected from a group including various country such as Japan, United State, Australia, New Zealand, Grate Britain, Canada, Switzerland, Hong Kong, Thailand, and Norway can be assigned arbitrary as "the first country", and one of other country different from the country assigned as the first country can be assigned arbitrary as "the second country". In addition, a collective-FX-dealing bank, which may be referred as "a socket type bank" in the present Specification, possessing and running the collective-FX-dealing server is not always required to be located in the first or second country. Moreover, "the customer" can be a customer in the first country, or a customer in a country other than the first country. Similarly, "the first customer-handling bank" can be located in the first country, or in a country other than the first country. According to the method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges pertaining to the first aspect, differently from the bank agency service, apparently similar to OEM in a manufacturing industry, the collective-FX-dealing server can carries out the arithmetic processing necessary for the FX transaction to the currency unit of the distribution currency in the second country from the currency unit of the distribution currency in the first country of the customer.
A second aspect of the present invention inheres in a server collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, encompassing (a) a plurality of CHBA databases serving as respective Vostro account databases for a plurality of customer-handling banks, configured to preliminarily store data of backup funds of predetermined money amounts; (b) a vostro-account manager configured to manage data stored in the plurality of CHBA databases; (c) a plurality of CHBMCA databases, respectively assigned to the plurality of customer-handling banks, being disposed separately from each other, in each of which money-amount data of a plurality of distribution currencies including money-amount data of a distribution currency in a first country and money-amount data of a distribution currency in a second country differing from the first country, are sorted for each customer; (d) a controller configured to deal with multi-currency deposits, in which, when the plurality of CHBMCA databases are managed independently and the vostro-account manager confirms that a particular CHBA database stores the money-amount data of the distribution currency in the first country which corresponds to a foreign-currency deposit, the money-amount data of the distribution currency in the first country in the particular CHBA database is transferred through the vostro-account manager to the data of a account-file of the distribution currency in the first country of a particular customer in the particular CHBMCA database, and further in view of an exchange rate defined on a basis of a currency unit of the distribution currency in the first country and a currency unit of the distribution currency in the second country, the money-amount data in the account-file of the distribution currency in the first country of the particular customer in the particular CHBMCA database is rewritten to the money-amount data in an account-file of the distribution currency in the second country of the particular customer in the particular CHBMCA database; and (e) a CDF operation unit configured to carry out arithmetic processing for cover deal and fund management, which correspond to the money amount in the account-file of the distribution currency in the second country, between the first country and the second country, in linkage to the rewriting step. Similar to the first aspect of the present invention, in the second aspect of the present invention, the way of election of countries such that which country shall be assigned as "the first country", and which country shall be assigned as "the second country" is optional and can be freely determined, and "the customer" can be a customer in the first country, or a customer in a country other than the first country. Similarly, "the plurality of customer-handling banks" can be located in the first country, or in a country other than the first country, and furthermore, "the plurality of customer-handling banks" can be distributed in different countries. According to the server dealing in the foreign exchange pertaining to the second aspect, differently from the system of the bank agency service, but apparently similar to OEM in the manufacturing industry, can carry out the arithmetic processing necessary for a FX transaction to the currency unit of the distribution currency in the second country from the currency unit of the distribution currency in the first country of the particular customer.
A program product for executing the method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, which is described in the first aspect of the present invention, can be stored in a computer-readable recording medium, and the recording medium is read out by a computer system. Consequently, the method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges of the present invention can be carried out. That is, a third aspect of the present invention inheres in a program product stored in a computer-readable recording medium for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, encompassing: (a) instructions to receive a transfer-information that a customer has made a deposit of a distribution currency in a first country, amount of which corresponds to a foreign-currency deposit defined on a basis of a currency unit of a distribution currency in a second country, with a corresponding exchange charge, in an ordinary D/A in the first country, the ordinary D/A is assigned in a first customer-handling bank, by a registering unit configured to register multiple-currency account for the first customer-handling bank, the registering unit is provided in a controller configured to deal with multi-currency deposits, the controller is provided in a collective-FX-dealing server; (b) instructions to transfer the money-amount data of the distribution currency in the first country in the first CHBA database, through a controller configured to deal with the multi-currency deposit, to data in an account-file of the distribution currency of the first country, the account-file is assigned in the first CHBMCA database, by a vostro-account manager; (c) instructions to rewrite the money-amount data in the account-file of the distribution currency in the first country in the first CHBMCA database to money-amount data of an account-file of the distribution currency in the second country in the first CHBMCA database, in view of an exchange rate defined on a basis of a currency unit of the distribution currency in the first country and the currency unit of the distribution currency in the second country,; and (d) instructions to carry out arithmetic processing for cover deal and fund management, which corresponds to the money amount in the account-file of the distribution currency in the second country, between the first country and the second country, being associated with the rewriting, by a CDF operation unit provided in the collective-FX-dealing server. Similar to the first and second aspects of the present invention, in the third aspect of the present invention, the way of election of countries such that which country shall be assigned as "the first country", and which country shall be assigned as "the second country" is optional and can be freely determined, and "the customer" can be a customer in the first country, or a customer in a country other than the first country. In addition, "the first customer-handling bank" can be located in the first country, or in a country other than the first country. According to the program product stored in a computer-readable recording medium for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges pertaining to the third aspect, it is possible to drive the collective-FX-dealing server to carry out the arithmetic processing necessary for the FX transaction to the currency unit of the distribution currency in the second country from the currency unit of the distribution currency in the first country of the customer. Also, by using the recording medium that stores the program product for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges pertaining to the third aspect and then driving the collective-FX-dealing server to execute the above procedure, the collective-FX-dealing server can carry out the arithmetic processing necessary for the FX transaction to the currency unit of the distribution currency in the second country from the currency unit of the distribution currency in the first country of the customer. Here, "the recording medium" indicates the medium that can record the program product stored in, for example, an external memory device of a computer, a semiconductor memory, a magnetic disc, an optical disc, a magnetic optical disc, a magnetic tape or the like. Specifically, a flexible disc, a CD-ROM, an MO disc, a cassette tape, an open reel tape and the like are included in "the computer-readable recording medium".

The embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the illustrations of the following drawings, the same or similar reference numbers are given to the same or similar portions. However, attention should be paid to the fact that, since the drawings are only diagrammatic, the relation between the thickness and the flat surface dimension, and the ratio between the thicknesses of respective layers, and the like differ from the actual materials. Thus, the specific thicknesses and dimensions should be judged by referring to the following explanations. Also, of course, the portions in which the mutual dimensional relations and ratios are different are included even between the mutual drawings.
Also, the embodiment of the present invention, which will be indicated below, only exemplifies the hardware resources and methods to embody the technical ideas of the present invention. The technical ideas of the present invention are not limited to the particular hardware resources and the like that are used in the following explanations. Various modifications can be added to the technical ideas of the present invention, within the technical scope described in claims.
In particular, the system (CDFE system) for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, which will be described below, and the collective-FX-dealing server, the method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges, and the program product dealing in the foreign exchange, which are used in the CDFE system, are described by exemplifying a financial system in Japan, under assumption that "a first country" of the present invention is Japan and a distribution currency and a currency unit in this first country are yen. However, they are insistently exemplificative. The CDFE system, which is proposed by the present invention, can be naturally used in the other countries except Japan. When the schema and technical idea of the present invention are applied to the foreign-currency deposits in the other countries, hereafter, "Japan" in the explanation of the CDFE system, pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, may be replaced with the country name of the other country, and the change may be properly added correspondingly to the distribution currency (official currency) of the country, and the actual condition and circumstance of a financial field. Also, when "the first country" is the community such as European Union (EU) or the like, the unified currency of the community such as an euro or the like naturally corresponds as this "distribution currency and currency unit of the first country".

After the VO-manager 33 withdraws the data of the balances of the data stored in the first CHBA database VAM1, the second CHBA database VAM2, ---, the n-th CHBA database VAMn, the data are written through the MCDD-controller 34, to the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn, and the depositing process is carried out. Also, when the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB request the withdrawals from the MCDD-controller 34, the data of the balances are withdrawn from the data stored in the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn in the MCDD-controller 34, and the VO-manager 33 writes the data of the same money amounts to the first CHBA database VAM1, the second CHBA database VAM2, ---, the n-th CHBA database VAMn, and puts the deposits. Then, the MCDD-controller 34 transmits messages through the system network to the corresponding first CHB, second CHB, third CHB, ---, n-th CHB and requests to put the deposits in the accounts (yen) of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- in the CHB.
For this reason, as shown in FIG. 1, the CFXD server 3 includes the first CHBA database VAM1, the second CHBA database VAM2, ---, the n-th CHBA database VAMn, which serve as the legal person databases of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, respectively, and also includes the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn as associated child accounts that are linked to the first CHBA database VAM1, the second CHBA database VAM2, ---, the n-th CHBA database VAMn, respectively, which serve as the legal-person account databases. Then, the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn are communicably connected through the MCDD-controller 34, to the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, via the system network.
In this way, the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn, which serve as the associated child accounts provided in the CFXD server 3, are linked through the system network to the accounting processes of the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB. Thus, the account process results can be transmitted from the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, to #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---, in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, respectively. The arithmetic processing for the general ledger of the CFXD server 3 is executed in linkage to the contents stored in the first CHBA database VAM1, the second CHBA database VAM2, ---, the n-th CHBA database VAMn, which serve as the legal-person account databases in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, respectively, and the first CHBA database VAM1, the second CHBA database VAM2, ---, the n-th CHBA database VAMn are in on-balance. However, the arithmetic processing for the general ledger of the CFXD server 3 is not linked to the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn, which serve as the associated child accounts. Hence, the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn are in off-balance.

With the configuration shown in FIG. 4, the CDF operation unit 35 sorts the FX transaction information of #11 customer (P11), the FX transaction information of #21 customer (P21), the FX transaction information of #31 customer (P31), --- (omission of middle portions) ---, the FX transaction information of #n1 customer (Pn1), which are received and stored by the FX-transaction information memory 352, one or several times per day, for each identical foreign currency, for each identical exchange-rate, and for each identical deposit period, and carries out the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding, in accordance with the flowchart shown in FIG. 5.
(a) After the CDF operation unit 35 has received the FX transaction information, and the FX-transaction information memory 352 has stored the FX transaction information, such as the FX transaction information of #11 customer (P11), the FX transaction information of #21 customer (P21), the FX transaction information of #31 customer (P31), --- (omission of middle portions) ---, the FX transaction information of #n1 customer (Pn1) and the like, at a step S131 in FIG. 5, through the identical-foreign-currency classification processor 353 in the CDF operation unit 35, it is determined whether the FX transaction information includes the identical foreign currency.
(b) After it is determined whether the FX transaction information includes the identical foreign currency through the identical-foreign-currency classification processor 353 at the step S131, at a step S132 in FIG. 5, respective identical foreign currencies are collected. That is, the FX transaction information of a first foreign currency is stored in the first identical-foreign-currency-transaction (IFCT) memory 354a, the FX transaction information of a second foreign currency is stored in the second IFCT memory 354b, the FX transaction information of a third foreign currency is stored in the third IFCT memory 354c, and each of the identical foreign currencies are stored in the respective identical-foreign-currency-transaction memories, and respective identical foreign currencies are collected.
(c) After respective identical foreign currencies are collected at the step S132, at a step S133 in FIG. 5, it is determined whether the FX transaction information includes the information having the identical FX-rate and identical foreign currencies. That is, at the step S133, the first identical rate-transaction classification (IRTC) processor 355a classifies respective identical FX-rate in the FX transaction information of the first foreign currency stored in the first IFCT memory 354a, the second IRTC processor 355b classifies respective identical FX-rate in the FX transaction information of the second foreign currency stored in the second IFCT memory 354b, the third IRTC processor 355c classifies respective identical FX-rate in the FX transaction information of the third foreign currency stored in the third IFCT memory 354c, and it is determined whether the information having the identical FX-rates are included in each of the FX transaction information having the identical foreign currencies.
(d) After it is determined whether the FX transaction information includes the identical FX-rates in the information having the identical foreign currency the step S133, at a step S134 in FIG. 5, respective identical FX-rates sorted in the identical foreign currencies are collected. That is, the FX transaction information of a first identical FX-rates with the first foreign currency is stored in the first IERT memory 356a, the FX transaction information of a second identical FX-rates with the first foreign currency is stored in the second IERT memory 356b, the FX transaction information of a third identical FX-rates with the first foreign currency is stored in the third IERT memory 356c, the FX transaction information of a fourth identical FX-rates with the first foreign currency is stored in the fourth IERT memory 356d, the FX transaction information of a first identical FX-rates with the second foreign currency is stored in the fifth IERT memory 356e, the FX transaction information of a second identical FX-rates with the second FX-rate with the first foreign currency is stored in the sixth IERT memory 356f, and further, although the illustration of the hardware resources are omitted in FIG.4, each of the identical FX-rates in the third identical foreign currencies are stored in the respective IERT memories, and then, each of the identical FX-rates in each of identical foreign currencies are stored in the respective IERT memories, and respective identical FX-rates in each of identical foreign currencies are collected.
(e) After the respective identical FX-rates sorted in each of identical foreign currencies are collected at the step S134, at a step S135 in FIG. 5, it is determined whether the FX transaction information includes information having the identical deposit periods in each of the FX transaction information having the identical FX-rate and the identical foreign currencies. That is, at the step S135, the first IPTC processor 357a classifies respective identical deposit periods in the FX transaction information of the first FX-rate with the first foreign currency stored in the first IERT memory 356a, the second IPTC processor 357b classifies respective identical deposit periods in the FX transaction information of the second FX-rate with the first foreign currency stored in the second IERT memory 356b, the third IPTC processor 357c classifies respective identical deposit periods in the FX transaction information of the third FX-rate with the first foreign currency stored in the third IERT memory 356c, the fourth IPTC processor 357d classifies respective identical deposit periods in the FX transaction information of the fourth FX-rate with the first foreign currency stored in the fourth IERT memory 356d, the fifth IPTC processor 357e classifies respective identical deposit periods in the FX transaction information of the first FX-rate with the second foreign currency stored in the fifth IERT memory 356e, the sixth IPTC processor 357f classifies respective identical deposit periods in the FX transaction information of the second FX-rate with the second foreign currency stored in the sixth IERT memory 356f, and further, although the illustration of the hardware resources are omitted in FIG.4, each of the identical deposit periods are classified in the third identical foreign currencies stored in the respective IERT memories, and then, and it is determined whether the identical deposit periods are included in each of the FX transaction information having the identical FX-rate and the identical foreign currencies.
(f) After it is determined whether the FX transaction information includes the identical deposit periods in each of the transaction information having the identical FX-rates and the identical foreign currency at the step S135, at a step S136 in FIG. 5, the FX transaction information having the identical deposit period, the identical FX-rate and the identical foreign currency are collected so that each of the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding can be separately executed, respectively. That is, the FX transaction information having the first identical deposit period, the first identical FX-rate and the first foreign currency are collected and the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding is collectively executed by the first identical-transaction execution (ITE) unit 358a, the FX transaction information having the second identical deposit period, the first identical FX-rate and the first foreign currency are collected and the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding is collectively executed by the second ITE unit 358b, the FX transaction information having the third identical deposit period, the first identical FX-rate and the first foreign currency are collected and the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding is collectively executed by the third ITE unit 358c, the FX transaction information having the fourth identical deposit period, the first identical FX-rate and the first foreign currency are collected and the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding is collectively executed by the fourth ITE unit 358d, the FX transaction information having the first identical deposit period, the second identical FX-rates and the first foreign currency are collected and the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding is collectively executed by the fifth ITE unit 358e, the FX transaction information having the second identical deposit period, the second identical FX-rate and the first foreign currency are collected and the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding is collectively executed by the sixth ITE unit 358f, and further, although the illustration of the hardware resources are omitted in FIG.4, such as the FX transaction information having the third identical FX-rate and the first foreign currency, the FX transaction information having the fourth identical FX-rate and the first foreign currency, the FX transaction information having the first identical FX-rate and the second foreign currency, the FX transaction information having the second identical FX-rate and the second foreign currency, or the FX transaction information having the third foreign currency, are respectively classified and collected so that each of the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding is collectively executed by respective identical-transaction execution (ITE) units, and then, each of the FX transaction information having the identical deposit periods, the identical FX-rates and identical foreign currencies are classified and collected so that so that each of the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding having the identical deposit periods, the identical FX-rates and identical foreign currencies can be separately executed, respectively.
By the way, the hardware configuration shown in FIG. 4 exemplifies the configuration in which the FX transaction information are sorted in parallel for each identical foreign currency, for each identical exchange-rate and for each identical deposit period. However, it is possible to employ a configuration in which the FX transaction information are sorted serially in time sharing for each identical foreign currency, for each identical exchange-rate and for each identical deposit period. If the configuration in which the FX transaction information are serially sorted for each identical foreign currency, for each identical exchange-rate and for each identical deposit period is employed, the hardware configuration is naturally simpler than the configuration shown in FIG. 4, and needless to say, the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding in accordance with the flowchart shown in FIG. 5 can also be executed for the case when the FX transaction information are serially sorted.
Although a flow of the arithmetic processes in which the existence of the identical foreign currency is determined and sorted at first, and next, the existence of the identical FX-rate is judged in each of the FX transaction information having the identical foreign currencies and sorted, and finally, the existence of the identical deposit period is judged in each of the FX transaction information having the identical FX-rate and the identical foreign currencies and sorted, and then, the FX transaction information having the identical deposit period, the identical FX-rate and the identical foreign currency are collected so that each of the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding can be separately executed, respectively is explained, the flowchart illustrated in FIG. 5 is merely an example, and the flow of the arithmetic processes executed in the CDF operation unit 35 shall not be limited to the order of the flowchart illustrated in FIG. 5. For example, another order of the arithmetic processes such that, the existence of the identical foreign currency is judged and sorted at first, and next, the existence of the identical deposit period is determined in each of the FX transaction information having the identical foreign currencies and sorted, and finally, the existence of the identical FX-rate is judged in each of the FX transaction information having the identical deposit period and the identical foreign currencies and sorted, and then, the FX transaction information having the identical FX-rate, the identical deposit period, and the identical foreign currency are collected so that each of the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding can be separately executed, respectively can be used.
In an alternative process, the existence of the identical deposit period is determined and sorted at first, and next, the existence of the identical FX-rate is determined in each of the FX transaction information having the identical deposit period and sorted, and finally, the existence of the identical foreign currency is determined in each of the FX transaction information having the identical FX-rate and the identical deposit period and sorted, and then, the FX transaction information having the identical foreign currency, the identical FX-rate and the identical deposit period are collected so that each of the arithmetic processing for the cover deal and the funding can be separately executed, respectively can be used.
That is, since the permutation of the arithmetic processes for sorting the identical deposit period, the identical FX-rate and the identical foreign currency is calculated as:

3P3 = 3! =6,

the order of the arithmetic processes can be freely elected from six permutations of the arithmetic processes.
When an order of the arithmetic processes for sorting, electing, and collecting the identical deposit period, the identical FX-rate and the identical foreign currency is changed from the order illustrated in the flowchart shown in FIG. 5, the logical configuration of the hardware resources illustrated in FIG. 4 shall surely be changed appropriately so as to execute the changed new order of the arithmetic processes.
Using the CDF operation unit 35 whose logical structure is exemplified in FIG. 4, so as to execute the flow of the arithmetic processes illustrated in the flowchart shown in FIG. 5, a large quantity of the FX transaction information can be processed, by sorting and collecting the FX transaction information having the identical deposit period, the identical FX-rate and the identical foreign currency. Then, the cover deals of the foreign currencies of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), #31 customer (P31), at a gross (for each individual transaction) and the tasks of multi-currency interest-arbitrage are jointly executed by the CFXD server 3. Instead of the arithmetic processing of the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, the n-th CHB, the CFXD server 3 executes the arithmetic processing. Thus, the arithmetic processing for the cover deals, which are individually executed and small in money amount, are not required in the respective computers B1, B2, B3, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, the n-th CHB.
For this reason, the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention can avoid the foreign exchange fluctuation risk without receiving the influence of the foreign exchange fluctuation, and can provide the advantageous effect so that, since the processing operations of the position managements of the foreign exchanges and the interest rates are not required in the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, the simplifications of the arithmetic processing in the computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn are achieved. Also, consequently, the efficiencies of the businesses of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are achieved.
Moreover, according to the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to collect the data of the funds of the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB and carry out the arithmetic processing for the data quantity of the money amount of the greater unit. Thus, it is possible to expect the larger management gains and returns, as compared with a case in which each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB uniquely carry out the management in the market.
According to the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, the fund amount to be treated can be made larger. Thus, as the fund amount is larger, portfolios of more kinds can be invested correspondingly thereto, and the risk of the investment can be dispersed. As a result, the loss is decreased, thereby increasing the benefit. The term "portfolio" implies the foreign bond of the multiple-currencies in different countries. For example, in the case of the management of the dollar deposit, even in the fund configured by the single foreign currency such as the dollar, when the fund amount is large, the investment can be carried out while it is dispersed to the different countries, the different kinds (national debts or corporate bonds) and the different periods from the viewpoint of an management strategy. However, when the fund amount is small, it is difficult to invest the bonds of various kinds.
The fund amount that is treated by the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention is large. Thus, as for the period of the investment, not only by the mere combination with the procurement period of the deposit but also by the intentional combination with interest sensitivities (durations), it is possible to aim at efficient management gains. For example, apart from the different managements in which the deposit received as an ordinary deposit is turned over as the ordinary deposit and further the deposit received as a fixed-term deposit is turned over independently as the fixed-term deposit, even in the case of the ordinary deposit, a part thereof can be turned over for a long period. That is, even in the case of the fund collected as the ordinary deposit, by referring to a retention rate and a period structure of an interest rate that are obtained from an empirical rule and the like, it is possible to carry out the management of a high technique such as the management in which the bonds of middle and long periods are purchased and the like.
Also, according to the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, the CFXD server 3 processes the arithmetic processing of the transactions with the respective #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB singly and grossly. Thus, a larger amount of a service charge benefit can be relatively obtained. As described in the column of the background art, the existing FX-settlement operations uses the SWIFT, which is the foreign currency dealing system that is common in the world, and integrates the telegrams used in the communication between the financial institutions in the bank field. According to the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, each of the computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB is not required to transmit the command of the settlement instruction to a plurality of banks, differently from the conventional method. Then, the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB can purchase the foreign currencies only through Bank of Japan financial network system (BOJ-Net) by unifying the settlements into BOJ-Net, which is used by all of banks in Japan for Japan-yen settlement operations, without using the SWIFT. Thus, in addition to the advantageous effect such as the achievements of the higher efficiency and simplicity of the settlement operations, it is possible to provide an advantageous effect that the service charge generated when the SWIFT is used is not required and the respective costs of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB can be reduced. By the way, because the BOJ-Net is exemplarily described herein, as described in the beginning of the column of DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS, the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention is network systems that can be used in the other countries other than Japan, the architecture of the CDFE system can be applied even to the foreign-currency deposits in the other countries.
In the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, in the VO-manager 33 and the CDF operation unit 35, because the data of the multi-currency ledger are coupled by CHB by CHB, and the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are scheduled to be transferred with the results after the arithmetic processing of the settlement and the arithmetic processing of the cover dealing and funding are executed inside the CFXD server 3, respectively, in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, the simplifications of the operations such as the settlement-instruction job, the contract-management job, the foreign-currency-settlement account-inspection job and the like, which are related to FX business, are achieved.
For this reason, the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB may serve as input banking terminals to deposit the individual foreign-currency accounts in the CFXD server 3, respectively. Thus, the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are not exposed to the market risk/price fluctuation risk. As a result, even from the viewpoint of the Basel regulation, the advantageous effect of the contribution to the improvement of the core capital ratio is provided to the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB.
The respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB can execute the arithmetic processing of the transactions, in which the storage contents (data) of the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn are used under unique and specific account-identification numbers provided by the CFXD server 3, without disclosing the personal information of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- in each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, --- to the CFXD server 3, respectively. Consequently, the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB can transmit the respective goods of the CFXD bank, from the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, to #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---, as if the goods were provided by their own bank-services, respectively. Consequently, in the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, furthermore, with the interest rate of a high competitive power and the number of the foreign currencies, it is possible to acquire the customers and improve the share and also improve the bland presences of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB in the financial market.
Conceptual attitudes for objectives of the asset managements and the transactions of the foreign-currency deposits, risks of the asset managements and the transactions of the foreign-currency deposits, and the like are different in each of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---. #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---, when considering the transactions of the foreign currency and structured deposits and an investment trust and the like, try to preliminarily know "what types of objectives are existing ?", or "to what extent the degree of risk is acceptable ?" and the like, with respect to the asset management. However, in the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, the personal information of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- are not disclosed to the CFXD server 3. Thus, the CFXD bank that possesses and runs the CFXD server 3 can make the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB responsible respectively for the profiling, which determines the risk allowance degrees of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---, respectively. When #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- purchase the goods, in accordance with risk scores of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---, the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB shall propose the goods suitable for #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---, respectively.
Usually, in order to get and build relationship with personal customers, the financial institution gets the personal information of the subject personal customer in the getting step. For example, when opening the account in the financial institution, the personal customer is required to note the personal information, such as a name, an address, an occupation, an account opening object and the like, on a predetermined application paper and also represent or submit an ID such as a driver' license and the like. Since the items noted on the application paper and the items noted on the ID belong to the personal information, the financial institution has a duty of strictly managing those personal information in view of a law (a personal information protection law, a guide line with regard to a treatment of the personal information or the like that is bulletined by the Financial Services Agency, and a practical pointer). For example, as for the personal information, its use object is limited, and it cannot be used in principle for the object except the scheduled use object. Also, the personal information is required to be updated under an accurate content. Moreover, when the personal information is leaked, its leakage is required to be reported to the concerned authorities (Financial Services Agency), and when the leakage causes the loss to be generated in the personal customer, the compensation for the loss is paid to the customer. According to the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, the CFXD bank (socket type bank) that possesses and runs the CFXD server 3 can escape from those burdens associated with the obtainment and management of the personal information of the personal customer.
Also, from the request of law compliance, the financial institution is prohibited from transacting with antisocial forces (gang groups and the like). When the personal customer tries to open the account in the financial institution, the financial institution compares the customer with the list of the antisocial forces (the list in which the names of the specified gang groups and their members and the like are noted) held by the financial institution itself or provided by third parties, and rejects the account from being opened if the customer belongs to the antisocial forces. According to the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, the CFXD bank (socket type bank) that possesses and runs the CFXD server 3 is not required to examine whether or not the personal customer trying to open the account belongs to the antisocial forces.
Moreover, in order to protect money laundering, the financial institution has a duty of confirming the identity of the customer, holding its record and saving the transaction record with the customer, in accordance with a criminal profit protection law. Also, when the transaction executed by the customer is doubted about the profit resulting from a crime, as the doubtful transaction, there is a duty of reporting to the concerned authorities (Financial Services Agency). According to the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, the CFXD bank (socket type bank) that possesses and runs the CFXD server 3 is not required to confirm the identity of the personal customer, store its record and monitor the transaction executed by the customer and consequently check whether or not the doubtful transaction is executed.
In this way, the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, because a sequence of the arithmetic processing of all of the transactions, other than the deposit acquirement and the management of the acquired deposit, is completed automatically through the use of the system without any manpower, can implement a seamless business process. Also, the arithmetic processing for foreign-currency reserves management on the side of the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are not required. In particular, at present, the arithmetic processing for foreign-currency reserves managements that are individually executed by the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are singly executed through the CDFE system, by the CFXD server 3. Thus, the arithmetic processing for the managements on the sides of the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are not required, which enables the improvements of the efficiencies of the businesses of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB.
Also, the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention can be achieved only by establishing the interface, which defines the format of transmitting/receiving the data between the respective programs of the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB and the CFXD server 3. Thus, each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB is not required to individually employ staffs for receiving the foreign-currency deposit and establish the CDFE system that requires the investment of hundred million units which is ascribable to the independent and separate development in each bank.
Also, in the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB can execute the arithmetic processing of the transactions in which the storage contents (data) of the first CHBMCA database PLM1, the second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn are used under unique and specific account-identification numbers provided by the CFXD server 3, without disclosing the personal information of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- in each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, to the CFXD server 3, respectively. Thus, the data quantity treated by the CFXD server 3 is reduced, which enables the high speed process and can reduce the arithmetic processing necessary for the management on the side of the CFXD bank.
Moreover, according to the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention, each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB handles respective personal foreign-currency account as deposit to the CFXD bank (socket type bank) that runs the CDFE system. Thus, each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB is not exposed to the market risk/price fluctuation risk. The foreign-currency deposit acquired by each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB is transferred to the CFXD bank (socket type bank) as a FX managing bank. However, the total asset of each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB is adjusted for the risk, on the basis of the content of deposit. Thus, the core capital required, under assumption that the management quantity of the foreign-currency deposit is equal to marketable securities, is low as compared with the management of marketable securities. In other words, the employment of the CDFE system facilitates the improvement of the core capital ratio. Hence, it is possible to contribute to the corresponding management to the Basel regulation in each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB.
Between the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB and the CFXD server 3, each of the computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB substantially deposits the foreign-currency to the CFXD server 3. Also, management gains and returns of the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention and the benefit of the foreign exchange handling charge are shared between the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB and the CFXD bank (socket type bank) that possesses and runs the CFXD server 3.
With regard to a net banking, the interfaces specified by the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are prepared, which enables a configuration in which the CFXD server 3 can have the function similar to the net banking, within the scope proposed by the technical idea of the present invention. Thus, the CDFE system pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention leads to the reinforcement of the net banking, in addition to the jobs serviced at reception desks in each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB.
(METHOD FOR COLLECTIVELY DEALING IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE)
The method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention will be described below by using a flowchart illustrated in FIGs. 6-9. By the way, the method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges as described below indicates one example. Within the scope described in claims, various operating/dealing methods other than the method illustrated in FIGs. 6-9 can be naturally achieved, including variations. By the way, the method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention is explained under an assumption that in advance, a cooperation contract is established between a plurality of first customer-handling bank (first CHB), second customer-handling bank (second CHB), third customer-handling bank (third CHB), ---, n-th customer-handling bank (n-th CHB) and the CFXD bank (socket type bank) which possesses and runs the CFXD server 3, and inside the CFXD server 3, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIGs. 3A and 3B, a first CHBA-registering unit VA1, a second CHBA-registering unit VA2, ---, n-th CHBA-registering unit VAn, and a first CHBA database VAM1, a second CHBA database VAM2, ---, a n-th CHBA database VAMn, and a first MCCHB-registering unit PL1, a second MCCHB-registering unit PL2, ---, a n-th MCCHB-registering unit PLn, and a first CHBMCA database PLM1, a second CHBMCA database PLM2, ---, a n-th CHBMCA database PLMn, and the like are prepared.
(a) At first, at a Step S11, each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB in a first country (e.g. Japan) accesses a checking D/A (Vostro account) in each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, which are provided in a subject CFXD bank specified, through the ADW controller 31 in the CFXD server 3, by using a real time gross settlement (RTGS) in the BOJ-Net, and deposit backup funds of a predetermined amount corresponding to investment scales, such as hundred million yen and the like, in each checking D/A (Vostro account). Then, the first CHBA-registering unit VA1, the second CHBA-registering unit VA2, the third CHBA-registering unit VA3, ---, n-th CHBA-registering unit VAn, in the VO-manager 33 in the CFXD server 3 store the deposit data of the respective backup funds in the corresponding first CHB, second CHB, third CHB, ---, n-th CHB, in the first CHBA database VAM1, the second CHBA database VAM2, the third CHBA database VAM3, ---, the n-th CHBA database VAMn, respectively.
(b) Then, when #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m) in the first CHB, and #21 customer (P21) in the second CHB, #31 customer (P31) in the third CHB, ---, and the like, open respectively the multi-currency D/As in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB sequentially transmit the requests for opening the multi-currency D/As to the CFXD server 3, through the use of the telegrams. Then, the MCDD-controller 34 in the VO-manager 33 sequentially installs program products of the first MCCHB-registering unit PL1, to the MCA registering unit MAR11 for #11 customer, the MCA registering unit MAR12 for #12 customer, ---, the MCA registering unit MAR1m for #1m customer, in the inside of the corresponding first MCCHB-registering unit PL1, on the basis of the telegrams sequentially transmitted from the computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn, respectively, and, further sequentially installs program products to the corresponding MCA registering unit MAR21 for #21 customer in the inside of the second MCCHB-registering unit PL2. Or, the MCDD-controller 34 assigns the MCA registering unit MAR11 for #11 customer, the MCA registering unit MAR12 for #12 customer, ---, the MCA registering unit MAR1m for #1m customer, the MCA registering unit MAR21 for #21 customer, --- and the like, to each of previously prepared set of program products, as necessary. Then, the first MCCHB-registering unit PL1 opens #11 customer's MCA file MAM11 for #P11 customer in the first CHB, #12 customer's MCA file MAM12 for #P12 customer in the first CHB, ---, #1m customer's MCA file MAM1m for #P1m customer in the first CHB, through the MCA registering unit MAR11 for #11 customer, the MCA registering unit MAR12 for #12 customer, ---, the MCA registering unit MAR1m for #1m customer, respectively. And further, the second MCCHB-registering unit PL2, ---, and the n-th MCCHB-registering unit PLn open respectively #21 customer's MCA file MAM21 (whose illustration is omitted) for #P21 customer in the second CHB, ---, and the like, through the MCA registering unit MAR21 for #21 customer, ---, and the like, respectively. The first MCCHB-registering unit PL1, the second MCCHB-registering unit PL2, ---, and the n-th MCCHB-registering unit PLn give the identification account numbers to #11 customer's MCA file MAM11 for #P11 customer, #12 customer's MCA file MAM12 for the P12 customer, ---, #1m customer's MCA file MAM1m for #P1m customer in the first CHB, and #21 customer's MCA file MAM21 (whose illustration is omitted) for #21 customer (P21) in the second CHB, --- and the like, respectively, and manage the identification account numbers. The identification account numbers are prepared and managed by the first MCCHB-registering unit PL1, the second MCCHB-registering unit PL2, ---, and the n-th MCCHB-registering unit PLn, on the basis of the identification codes of the first CHB, the second CHB, ---, and the n-th CHB.
(c) After the completion of the process for opening the multi-currency D/A as mentioned above, for example, under assumption that one US dollar is worth Japanese 90 Yen, let us suppose that #11 customer (P11) in the first CHB desires a fixed-term deposit of ten thousand US dollarss (= nine hundred thousand yens). That is, let us suppose that, at a Step S121, #11 customer (P11) transfers nine hundred thousand yens in a fund of an ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11), which is deposited in the first CHB, and a corresponding exchange charge to a yen ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11) in the multi-currency D/A in the subject CFXD bank. Specifically, for example, when a net banking provided in the first CHB is used for transferring, #11 customer (P11) himself carries out the transferring, or when a banking terminal which is provided to the first CHB by the subject CFXD bank is used, a bank staff in the first CHB carries out the transferring at a reception desk of the first CHB. If #11 customer (P11) has sufficient funds in the yen ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11) in the first CHB, a part of the fund deposited in the yen ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11) in the first CHB shall be transferred to the yen ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11) in the multi-currency D/A in the subject CFXD bank. Alternatively, if #11 customer (P11) does not have enough funds in the yen ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11) in the first CHB, a required amount of yen corresponding to a foreign-exchange deposit money amount and the exchange charge will be newly credited by #11 customer (P11) to the yen ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11) in the first CHB, or the required amount of yen corresponding to a foreign-exchange deposit money amount and the exchange charge will be transferred from another yen ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11) in another CHB. Namely, there are many ways for transferring the required amount of yen corresponding to a foreign-exchange deposit money amount and the exchange charge to the yen ordinary D/A of #11 customer (P11) in the multi-currency D/A in the subject CFXD bank. ,
(d) Then, at a Step S122a, deposit-information (transfer-request information) that #11 customer (P11) in the first country (Japan) has deposited (transferred) the distribution currency (yen) in the first country corresponding to a foreign-exchange deposit money amount, which is defined at currency unit (e.g. US dollar) of the distribution currency in a second country (e.g. US) and the exchange charge, to the ordinary D/A of the distribution currency (yen) in the first country which is deposited in the first customer-handling bank (first CHB) in the first country is received by the first MCCHB-registering unit PL1 provided in the inside of the MCDD-controller 34, which is provided in the CFXD server 3. That is, at the step S122a, a transfer-request information is transmitted and identifies that #11 customer (P11) in the first CHB deposits the nine hundred thousand yens to the ordinary D/A in the first CHB and desires to transfer to the multi-currency D/A is transmitted from the computer B1 in the first CHB to the ADW controller 31 in the CFXD server 3 by an information-processing network, which connects the subject CFXD bank and the first CHB, through the use of a system integration whose security level is high, in substantially real time, and the transfer-request information is further transmitted from the ADW controller 31 to the first MCCHB-registering unit PL1 in the MCDD-controller 34. The first MCCHB-registering unit PL1 stores the data of the nine hundred thousand yens and the exchange charge, through the MCA registering unit MAR11 for #11 customer, in the file of #11 customer's yen account in #11 customer's MCA file MAM11 in the first CHBMCA database PLM1. As for the telegram of the transfer-request information or the like, for example, an XML format may be used.
(e) At a step S124a, the VO-manager 33 transfers the money-amount data of the distribution currency (yen) in the first country in the first CHBA database VAM1, through the MCDD-controller 34, to the data of the distribution currency (yen) account in the first country in #11 customer's MCA file MAM11 in the first CHBMCA database PLM1. That is, at the step S124a, the VO-manager 33 in the CFXD server 3 transfers the data of the nine hundred thousand yens in the first CHBA database VAM1, through the MCA registering unit MAR11 for #11 customer in the first MCCHB-registering unit PL1, to the data of #11 customer's yen account in #11 customer's MCA file MAM11 in the first MCCHB-registering unit PL1, and transfers the nine hundred thousand yens in the checking D/A (Vostro account) in the first CHB, to the yen D/A of #11 customer managed and executed by the MCDD-controller 34 in view of an exchange rate, which is defined at the currency unit of the distribution currency (yen) in the first country and the currency unit (US dollar) of the distribution currency in the second country (US) and rewrites the money-amount data in the distribution currency (yen) account in the first country of #11 customer (P11) in the first CHBMCA database PLM1, to the money-amount data of the distribution currency account (#11 customer first foreign currency account (FCA)) in the second country of #11 customer (P11) in the first CHBMCA database PLM1. As a result, #11 customer (P11) is considered that he has requested the foreign-currency deposit of the ten thousand US dollarss, or the structured deposit of the ten thousand US dollarss, or the like, for the nine hundred thousand yens transferred to the yen D/A of #11 customer that is managed and executed by the MCDD-controller 34. Then, the FX transaction information of #11 customer, which may include the identification number of #11 customer (P11), category and type of the currency, information of the exchange rate, information of the deposit period and the like, is transmitted to the CDF operation unit 35.
(f) Similarly, let us suppose that at the approximately same timing on the same day, for example, #21 customer (P21) in the second CHB desires to transfer the fixed-term deposit of X US dollars (= 90X yens). That is, at a step S121b illustrated in FIG. 7, #21 customer (P21) transfers 90X yens in the fund of the ordinary D/A of #21 customer (P21) that is deposited in the second CHB, and a corresponding exchange charge, to the yen ordinary D/A of #21 customer (P21) in the multi-currency D/A in the subject CFXD bank. Then, the transfer-request information that #21 customer (P21) in the second CHB is desiring to deposit the 90X yens to the ordinary D/A in the second CHB and would like to transfer to the multi-currency D/A is transmitted from the computer B2 in the second CHB to the ADW controller 31 in the CFXD server 3, by the information-processing network which connects the subject CFXD bank and the second CHB, and further transmitted from the ADW controller 31 to the second MCCHB-registering unit PL2 in the MCDD-controller 34. And, at a step S122b, the transfer-request information is received by the second MCCHB-registering unit PL2, and the second MCCHB-registering unit PL2 stores the data of the 90X yens and a corresponding exchange charge, through the MCA registering unit MAR21 for #21 customer, in the file of #21 customer's yen account in #21 customer's MCA file MAM21 in the second CHBMCA database PLM2. After that, at a step S124b, the VO-manager 33 transfers the data of the 90X yens of the second CHBA database VAM2, through the MCA registering unit MAR21 for #21 customer in the second MCCHB-registering unit PL2, to the data of #21 customer's yen account in #21 customer's MCA file MAM21 in the second CHBMCA database PLM2, and transfers the 90X yens of the checking D/A of the second CHB, to the yen D/A of #21 customer (P21) managed and executed by the MCDD-controller 34. Consequently, for the 90X yens transferred to the yen D/A of #21 customer (P21), which is managed and executed by the MCDD-controller 34, #21 customer (P21) is considered that he has requested the foreign-currency deposit of X US dollars, or structured deposit of X US dollars. Then, the FX transaction information of #21 customer, which may include the identification number of #21 customer (P21), category and type of the currency, information of the exchange rate, information of the deposit period and the like, is transmitted to the CDF operation unit 35.
(g) Similarly, let us suppose that at the approximately same timing on the same day, for example, #31 customer (P31) in the third CHB desires to transfer the fixed-term deposit of Y US dollars (= 90Y yens). That is, at a step S121c illustrated in FIG. 8, #31 customer (P31) transfers the 90Y yens in the fund of the ordinary D/A of #31 customer (P31), which is deposited in the third CHB, and a corresponding exchange charge, to the yen ordinary D/A of #31 customer (P31) in the multi-currency D/A in the subject CFXD bank. Then, the transfer-request information that #31 customer (P31) in the third CHB is desiring to deposit the 90Y yens in the ordinary D/A in the third CHB and would like to transfer to the multi-currency D/A is transmitted from the computer B3 in the third CHB to the ADW controller 31 in the CFXD server 3, by the information-processing network which connects the subject CFXD bank and the third CHB, and further transmitted from the ADW controller 31 to the third MCCHB-registering unit PL3 for the third CHB (whose illustration is omitted) in the MCDD-controller 34. And, at a step S122c, the transfer-request information is received by the third MCCHB-registering unit PL3, and the third MCCHB-registering unit PL3 for the third CHB (whose illustration is omitted) stores the data of the 90Y yens and a corresponding exchange charge, through the MCA registering unit MAR31 for #31 customer (whose illustration is omitted), in the file of #31 customer's yen account in #31 customer's MCA file MAM31 (whose illustration is omitted) in the third CHBMCA database PLM3 (whose illustration is omitted). After that, at a step S124c, the VO-manager 33 transfers the data of the 90Y yens of third CHBA database VAM3 (whose illustration is omitted), through the MCA registering unit MAR31 for #31 customer (whose illustration is omitted) in the third MCCHB-registering unit PL3 for the third CHB (whose illustration is omitted), to the data of #31 customer's yen account in #31 customer's MCA file MAM31 (whose illustration is omitted) in the third CHBMCA database PLM3 (whose illustration is omitted), and transfers the 90Y yens of the checking D/A in the third CHB, to the yen D/A of #31 customer (P31) managed and executed by the MCDD-controller 34. Then, for the 90Y yens transferred to the yen D/A of #31 customer (P31) that is managed and executed by the MCDD-controller 34, #31 customer (P31) is considered that he has requested the foreign-currency deposit and structured deposit of Y US dollars. Then, the FX transaction information of #31 customer, which may include the identification number of #31 customer (P31), category and type of the currency, information of the exchange rate, information of the deposit period and the like, is transmitted to the CDF operation unit 35 --- (omission of middle portions) ---. Similarly, at a step S121f illustrated in FIG. 9, #n1 customer (Pn1) transfers 90Z yens in the fund of the ordinary D/A of #n1 customer (Pn1), which is deposited in the n-th CHB, and a corresponding exchange charge, to the yen ordinary D/A of #n1 customer (Pn1) in the multi-currency D/A in the subject CFXD bank. Then, the transfer-request information that #n1 customer (Pn1) in the n-th CHB is desiring to deposit the 90Z yens in the ordinary D/A in the n-th CHB and would like to transfer to the multi-currency D/A is transmitted from the computer B1 in the n-th CHB to the ADW controller 31 in the CFXD server 3, by the information-processing network which connects the subject CFXD bank and the n-th CHB, and further transmitted from the ADW controller 31 to the n-th MCCHB-registering unit PLn in the MCDD-controller 34. And, at a step S122f, the transfer-request information is received by the n-th MCCHB-registering unit PLn, and the n-th MCCHB-registering unit PLn stores the data of the 90Z yens and a corresponding exchange charge, through the MCA registering unit MARn1 for #n1 customer, in the file of #n1 customer's yen account in #n1 customer's MCA file MAMn1 in the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn. After that, at a step S124f, the VO-manager 33 transfers the data of the 90Z yens of the n-th CHBA database VAMn, through the MCA registering unit MARn1 for #n1 customer in the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn, to the data of #n1 customer's yen account in #n1 customer's MCA file MAMn1 in the n-th CHBMCA database PLMn, and transfers the 90Z yens of the checking D/A in the n-th CHB, to the yen D/A of #n1 customer (Pn1) managed and executed by the MCDD-controller 34. Then, for the 90Z yens transferred to the yen D/A of #n1 customer (Pn1) that is managed and executed by the MCDD-controller 34, #n1 customer (Pn1) is considered that he has requested the foreign-currency deposit of Z US dollars, or the structured deposit of Z US dollars. Then, the FX transaction information of #n1 customer, which may include the identification number of #n1 customer (Pn1), category and type of the currency, information of the exchange rate, information of the deposit period and the like, is transmitted to the CDF operation unit 35.
(h) At a step S13, the CDF operation unit 35 sorts the FX transaction information of #11 customer (P11), the FX transaction information of #21 customer (P21), the FX transaction information of #31 customer (P31), --- (omission of middle portions) ---, the FX transaction information of #n1 customer (Pn1), which are received, one or several times per day, for example, two times per day, and for each identical foreign currency, for each identical exchange-rate, and for each identical deposit period, by using the logical circuit structure shown in FIG. 4, and carries out the arithmetic processing for cover deal and fund management, which corresponds to the money amount of the distribution currency account in the second country (US), between the first country (Japan) and the second country (US). In the above example, the currencies and the exchange rates are assumed to be common between #11 customer (P11), #21 customer (P21) and #31 customer (P31). Thus, when the deposit periods of #11 customer (P11), #21 customer (P21) and #31 customer (P31) are equal, the FX transactions of #11 customer (P11), #21 customer (P21) and #31 customer (P31) are collected to execute simultaneously the arithmetic processing for the cover dealing and fund management. In the case of the arithmetic processing for the fund-management jobs, for example, when #11 customer (P11) puts the US dollar fixed-term deposit of an interest rate of 1% and when the bank purchases a bill of the U.S. Treasury of the interest rate of 4% and consequently calculates the fund, the bank can get the interest rate corresponding to 3%, and the arithmetic processing required to arbitrate the interest rate as mentioned above can be executed. In this way, the MCDD-controller 34 transmits the data of the foreign currency holding balance to the CDF operation unit 35 one time or several times per day, and the CDF operation unit 35 carries out the processes for the cover dealing and fund management. When #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- prepare the foreign-currency deposits from the yen D/As of the multi-currency D/As, FX service charges, which are contracted and defined between #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- and the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB, are generated. That is, when a current day account is closed, the MCDD-controller 34 transmits the data of the foreign currency holding balance of the current day to the CDF operation unit 35, and the CDF operation unit 35 carries out the processes for the cover dealing and fund management and confirms the data of the exchange charges. On the other hand, when the foreign-currency deposit is cancelled, the foreign-currency deposits of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB to the CFXD server 3 are firstly cancelled. At that time, the FX service charges contracted and defined between the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB and the CFXD server 3 are generated. Next, this foreign-currency deposit is transferred and deposited to the yen D/A of the multi-currency D/A. At that time, the FX service charges contracted and defined between #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- and the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are generated. An inspection of the cover dealing and fund managing transaction executed at the step S13 are carried out within the current day. Although the illustration is omitted in the flowchart illustrated in FIG. 6, each of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), and #31 customer (P31) receives corresponding transaction reports with notifications that the cover dealings and fund managing transactions are completed at the step S13.
(i) At a step S14, the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB transfer the shortfalls of the backup funds in the inside of the respective checking deposits (Vostro deposits), namely, the nine hundred thousand yens deposited by #11 customer (P11) in the first CHB, the 90X yens deposited by #21 customer (P21) in the second CHB, the 90Y yens deposited by #31 customer (P31) in the third CHB, --- (omission of middle portions) ---, the 90Z yens deposited by #n1 customer (Pn1) in #n1 CHB, through the BOJ-Net and the ADW controller 31 in the CFXD server 3, to the checking D/As (Vostro accounts) in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB which are provided in the subject CFXD bank, respectively, as necessary. Then, the first CHBA-registering unit VA1, the second CHBA-registering unit VA2, ---, the n-th CHBA-registering unit VAn, in the VO-manager 33 in the CFXD server 3 use the deposit data, respectively, and rewrite the deposit data of the backup funds in the corresponding first CHBA database VAM1, second CHBA database VAM2, third CHBA database VAM3, ---, n-th CHBA database VAMn, to the current deposit data, respectively. Consequently, the backup funds in the inside of the checking deposits (Vostro accounts) in each of the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB are kept at the predetermined money amounts of the originally set backup fund values.
(j) On the evening of the day when the step S121a, the step S121b, the step S121c, ---, the step S121f are executed, at a step S15, the first CHBA-registering unit VA1, the second CHBA-registering unit VA2, CHBA-registering unit VA3, ---, the n-th CHBA-registering unit VAn in the VO-manager 33 in the CFXD server 3 record the accounts of the transactions executed on that day, to the corresponding first CHBA database VAM1, second CHBA database VAM2, third CHBA database VAM3, ---, n-th CHBA database VAMn, respectively. The account of the transaction and the transaction for each execution of the cover dealing are described as "one piece", in each of the first CHBA database VAM1, the second CHBA database VAM2, third CHBA database VAM3, ---, the n-th CHBA database VAMn. At the end of the day, the MCDD-controller 34 transmits the data of the holding balance for each bank, for each deposit period and for each currency to the CDF operation unit 35. Then, the CDF operation unit 35 prepares for the cover holding balance in the market and confirms a spread until this time. For example, when the cover deal is executed for each of "One American Dollar = 83 Yen, Time Deposit of 3 Months, and 10 deposits", this transaction is described as one piece. For example, the checking deposit balance of the first CHB after closing becomes 99,one hundred thousand yens = ten thousand US dollarss. The foreign-currency deposit of ten thousand US dollarss is accounted as a debt in the subject CFXD bank, and accounted as a property in the first CHB, and the holding balance of the foreign currency is written to a partner account.
(k) The MCDD-controller 34 transmits an entry telegram to the VO-manager 33, for updating account book. The VO-manager 33 collects and compares the data of the account in a batch process at the end of the day and calculates and writes up the dairy interest rate. The foreign currency interest rate ascribable to the FX holding balance is transmitted to the CDF operation unit 35, from the VO-manager 33, at the end of the day. The CDF operation unit 35 carries out the preparation for the cover holding balance. The individual transactions, which are executed by #11 customer (P11) in the first CHB, #21 customer (P21) in the second CHB, #31 customer (P31) in the third CHB, ---, #n1 customer (Pn1) in the n-th CHB, respectively, are recorded and separately transmitted to the computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the corresponding first CHB, second CHB, third CHB, ---, n-th CHB, respectively, at a step S16. Also, when there is the withdrawal from the yen deposit of the multi-currency D/A, the MCDD-controller 34 transmits a deposit-request telegram to the computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn of the corresponding first CHB, second CHB, third CHB, ---, n-th CHB, through the use of the XML telegram. Anyhow, after the computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB receive the deposit-request telegrams from the MCDD-controller 34, the corresponding first CHB, second CHB, third CHB, ---, n-th CHB perform the depositing processes on the yen D/As of the corresponding #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---. The holding balance of the fixed-term deposit processed by the MCDD-controller 34 may be transmitted to an integrating system of a web base that carries out various treasury businesses such as the bond, the foreign exchange, a short-time money market, a derivative, a risk management and the like, on next day, and the integrating system of the web base may transmit the telegram to the VO-manager 33, for updating account books of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- or may prepare for the cover holding balance in the market.
(l) By the way, at a step S17, the arithmetic processing for the jobs such as deduction of withholding taxes of the D/As or the like are executed by the MCDD-controller 34, and the results of the arithmetic processing are transmitted from the CFXD server 3, to the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the corresponding first CHB, second CHB, third CHB, ---, n-th CHB. The report-sending unit 37 in the CFXD server 3 transmits the transaction report data, the operational transaction data, the original data of the balance report and the like for #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---, to the respective computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the corresponding first CHB, second CHB, third CHB, ---, n-th CHB. Then, the transaction report data, the operational transaction data, the original data of the balance report and the like can be used in updating account books and making up transaction reports of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), ---, #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---.
As mentioned above, in the method for collectively dealing in foreign exchanges pertaining to the embodiment of the present invention in which one example is exemplified by using the flowchart illustrated in FIG. 6, the personal information of #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), --- are not transferred from the computers B1, B2, B3, ---, Bn in the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB to the CFXD server 3 at all. For this reason, the arithmetic processing in the CFXD server 3 is performed on #11 customer (P11), #12 customer (P12), ---, #1m customer (P1m), #21 customer (P21), ---, #31 customer (P31), ---, on the basis of: the identification information (identification account numbers) assigned by the CFXD server 3; and the CHB codes for identifying the first CHB, the second CHB, the third CHB, ---, the n-th CHB.
