Strategic Reading

JSCC is where market volume becomes counterparty risk. It matters most during:

• margin stress (with JSF providing the standardized financing layer);
• volatility spikes on TSE or OSE;
• JGB collateral pressure (linked to JGB repo market);
• clearing participant defaults;
• product migration between exchange, PTS, OTC, and tokenized markets (ODX / Progmat context).
