SBI Japannext Co., Ltd. established in November 2006 aiming to enhance the convenience of investors in the stock market and create Japan’s first full-fledged PTS (Proprietary Trading System) market to which plural securities firms are connected online has introduced the state-of-the-ar t stock exchange system actually employed by a large number of stock exchanges in the world such as Euronext (European Stock Exchange) and started the nighttime PTS trading “ Japannext PTS” in August 27, 2007. Our business is not a traditional securities business to transmit an order from a customer but a business to match the orders from customers on our system to make stock trading in an attempt to offer more opportunities of stock trading to investors.
Goldman Sachs Securities, SBI SECURITIES, CLICK Securities, Rakuten Securities and Orix Securities have already participated in "Japannext PTS".
In October 2008, SBI Japannext started its daytime trading session in addition to the available nighttime trading session. As for the trading participants, a number of main foreign securities companies have participated in the daytime trading session at Japannext PTS. We will widely call for participating in dealing to securities firms to gather more liquidity in order to expand the justice as a PTS market and further convenience.
