Notes

  • One can see the frontiers in translation when merely one compares the text in the gray box in the upper right hand side of each of Fujitsu’s diagrams.  The diagram in Japanese names the function as 証券会社.  and the English diagram ascribes the activity to a Broker-Dealer.  So, does 証券会社 = Broker-Dealer? Not quite, because 証券会社 more complete transaction is the term Securities Firm, which is a more general term than Broker-Dealer.  In U.S. English, a broker dealer is a securities firm, while a Securities Firm is not necessarily a broker-dealer.
  • The main terminology was extracted from the following diagrams.
