The operator of one of Japan's most popular personal budget applications has announced plans to launch a pre-codec trading platform this year.

According to MF Financial's plan, the company will be launching its official website this summer, followed by a pre-coded trading platform and a pay-as-you-go system. MF Financial has been researching this project since December 2017.

By the end of 2017, Money Forward headquartered in Tokyo said it had 5.5 million users, with more than 500,000 Japanese businesses and 2,400 accounting firms using cloud-based software to calculate taxes. and invoicing.

More and more "big guys" jump into the pre-coding market.


As reported by Blogtienao, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG) , one of the largest financial groups in Japan, plans to launch Bitcoin and digital currency for small institutional investors. MUFG plans to find the resources and human resources needed to open a new pre-codec trading platform and apply for registration to the Japan Financial Services Authority (FSA). However, MUFG said that applying for a license is currently very difficult in Japan.

In Japan, anyone who wants to open a pre-coded trading platform will have to undergo some very rigorous procedures before receiving permission from the regulators.
