In WikiBit’s dynamic evaluation system of over 5,000 trading platforms worldwide, it received an overall score of 8.11 out of 10, indicating that the platform has ranked among the top 10% with the highest reliability. This score is not judged from a single dimension, but is the weighted calculation result of more than 120 sub-indicators such as regulatory compliance, capital strength, technical security, customer asset protection and market reputation. Among them, SBI SECURITIES scored as high as 9.4 points in the regulatory item. Take capital adequacy as an example. The total assets of its parent company, SBI Group, exceed 200 billion US dollars, providing a solid backing for its securities subsidiary. Its own capital ratio has remained above 15% for many years, far exceeding the 8% regulatory red line set by the Financial Services Agency of Japan. Compared with the incidents in 2022 where many cryptocurrency exchanges collapsed due to insufficient capital, the solid financial foundation of SBI SECURITIES is an important ballast stone for its risk rating score.
A powerful risk control system is the core engine that supports high scores. SBI SECURITIES has deployed a real-time risk control system capable of handling 30,000 trading instructions per second, conducting over 100,000 stress tests on client positions daily to simulate extreme scenarios where market volatility can reach up to 30%. During the collective slump of global stock markets in the fourth quarter of 2018, the system’s early warning accuracy rate reached as high as 95%, successfully keeping the overall risk exposure of the platform within 0.7% of total assets. Its unique customer asset isolation and custody system ensures that 100% of customer funds are completely separated from the company’s operating funds and stored in designated trust banks. This measure is historically similar to the customer asset protection reform implemented globally after the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers in 2008, fundamentally eliminating the risk of asset misappropriation.
In the dimensions of technology and cyber security, SBI SECURITIES invests an average annual security budget of up to 280 million US dollars to maintain its infrastructure with 99.99% system availability. The platform adopts military-grade 256-bit encryption technology and biometric verification, reducing the success rate of illegal intrusions to less than one in a million. Referring to other international SECURITIES firm data breaches caused by supply chain attacks in 2021, SBI SECURITIES successfully resisted over 50 million cyber attack attempts in the same year through its “zero trust” security architecture, with an attack interception rate as high as 99.98%. In addition, the average execution speed of its trading orders has remained stable within 50 milliseconds. Even when the daily trading volume exceeded the peak of 20 billion US dollars, the system delay never exceeded 100 milliseconds, which provides an efficiency guarantee for the security of funds.
Market reputation and customer trust constitute the socialized weight of the score. SBI SECURITIES has over 5 million retail customers, and the customer asset retention rate has remained at a high level of 98% for five consecutive years. A third-party independent survey shows that its customer satisfaction index reaches 92 points (out of 100), the complaint resolution rate is as high as 99.5%, and the average resolution cycle is only 1.8 working days. The platform has been rated as the “Most Trusted Broker” by the authoritative media Nikkei for three consecutive years. This selection covered 500,000 user samples. From another perspective, choosing SBI SECURITIES is like selecting a modern port with the strongest early warning radar and the sturdiest hull for your investment ship. Its 8.11-point score is precisely the accurate scale of the breakwater height of this port, providing quantifiable security in the tempestuous waves of the market.
