As someone who takes risk management and transparency seriously, I approach swap fees and overnight financing charges with careful consideration, as these costs directly affect my long-term trading strategy. When reviewing Rakuten Bank, I found it challenging to make a direct comparison of their swap fees to those offered by other brokers. The key issue for me is the lack of publicly available, detailed information regarding these specific charges on Rakuten Bank’s trading platform or through official communication channels. In my experience, reputable brokers are diligent in presenting such crucial information, often providing clear tables or calculators to help traders anticipate overnight costs. This transparency is vital because even small differences in swap fees can add up significantly for positions held over multiple days. With Rakuten Bank, their absence of formal regulation heightens my caution. Without oversight, there’s limited recourse if charges change unpredictably or aren’t disclosed clearly. Practically, I’d find it difficult to assess how competitive Rakuten Bank’s funding rates are relative to large, internationally regulated brokers unless they become much more forthcoming. Until then, for me, the uncertainty surrounding overnight charges is enough to reconsider using them as my primary broker, as I need full clarity on all trading costs to manage my risk responsibly.
