Despite seeing some gains in key segments in May 2017, a narrow trading range for the yen and stagnated movement in Japanese currency ultimately constrained Gaitame’s monthly volumes, which was on par with other Japanese FX brokerages, many of which suffered from lower readings in May.
This was reflected in Gaitame’s volumes in May 2017, which continued to cede ground from earlier this year. The latest readings showed a figure of $1.85 billion (¥204.3 billion) for the month, higher by 8.9 percent month-over-month from $1.70 billion (¥187.5 billion) in April 2017. April had proved to be the slowest trading month for the group since October 2016, and its worst volumes performance in 2017.
Despite bouncing off last month’s figure, Gaitame’s volumes have failed to recapture the same levels seen earlier this year. An overall trend in H1 2017 has been one of lower volumes, with Gaitame seeing a year-to-date plunge of 36.4 percent. Moreover, May 2017 was also lower than its yearly counterpart, dwindling by 8.3 percent year-over-year from $2.03 billion (¥222.7 billion) in May 2016.
