Purpose

The Japanese forex market is an internationally significant forex market that gradually developed after World War II. As one of the world's major economies, Japan's forex market features characteristics such as large trading volume, a wide variety of trading products, and numerous market participants. To help investors or professionals gain a more comprehensive understanding of Japanese forex brokers, the on-site inspection team conducted a field visit in Japan.

Process

The team went to Japan for a field visit to forex broker ICAP. According to public information, its office address is Akasaka Tameike Tower 4F 2-17-7 Akasaka Minato-ku Tokyo 107-0052 Japan.

A professional and experienced team, driven by a sense of mission to rigorously vet for investors, proceeded according to a meticulous plan to the target area in Japan. They conducted an on-site verification of the trading company ICAP, which claims to be located at the aforementioned address.

The on-site visit team arrived at Akasaka Tameike Tower, which is located in Akasaka, Minato City, Tokyo. The surrounding environment is relatively bustling with a strong commercial atmosphere. However, no company signage or related information for ICAP was found on the exterior of the building.

The on-site visit team explained their purpose to the security personnel and, after communication, obtained permission to enter the lobby. On the directory board inside the building, there was no information for this company.

Due to the lack of corresponding company information, it was impossible to reach the target floor and enter the interior, nor to photograph the office area and reception area of ICAP. Furthermore, that floor was not a shared office space.

Through the public area of the lobby, the internal environment of the company and other conditions could not be observed. Overall, it was impossible to confirm whether it matched the claimed positioning.

Therefore, after the site visit, it was confirmed that the trading company ICAP does not exist at the aforementioned address.

Conclusion

According to the plan, a visit was made to the physical business location of forex broker ICAP in Japan. At its publicly displayed business address, no information such as the company name of this broker could be seen, indicating that this broker does not have a genuine business premises. Investors are advised to make their choice after comprehensive consideration.
