Based on my thorough review of MUFG (Mitsubishi UFJ eSmart Securities) as presented, my experience leads me to clarify a few important considerations for anyone interested in trading specific assets such as Gold (XAU/USD) or Crude Oil. MUFG, under the brand Au Kabucom Securities, primarily focuses on a broad range of financial instruments centered around Japanese equities, ETFs, bonds, futures/options, and forex margin trading. Their product offering also includes CFDs (Contract for Difference), but the available information specifically identifies "Share 365" CFDs, which are typically equity-related instruments. I did not find explicit mention of spot gold (XAU/USD) or standard energy commodities like crude oil among their listed tradable assets. From my seasoned perspective, the lack of direct reference to these popular commodities is not just an omission but likely reflects the broker's targeted client base and regional market focus. Japanese online brokerages traditionally emphasize domestic and Asia-focused products. Even though their self-developed trading platform supports various asset classes, it's essential for me as a trader to confirm asset availability before assuming access. Given the regulatory standing and reliable reputation of MUFG, I feel confident that the asset list provided is accurate. Therefore, I would not expect to actively trade XAU/USD or crude oil through MUFG at this time. For those specifically seeking to trade these global commodities, a more internationally oriented brokerage could be a more appropriate fit. As always, I recommend contacting customer service for the most current product lineup before making any trading decisions.
