Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited SWIFT/BIC code

What CHASJPJZ means for a payment to Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited

The 8-character code CHASJPJZ and the full code CHASJPJZXXX identify the same bank: Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited, with its head office in Tokyo. Every bank on the SWIFT network uses BIC codes to route international transfers to the right bank. In daily life you mostly see it on international invoices, in your banking app and in the bank details of Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited customers.

On this page we explain how the code is put together, when you need it and which other details a transfer to or from Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited requires. A SWIFT code names an institution, not a single account; the IBAN or account number does that.

CHASJPJZ or CHASJPJZXXX – which one to use?

Every SWIFT/BIC code starts with the same eight core characters: four letters for the bank, a two-letter country code and two characters for the location. In this case, the 8-character core is CHASJPJZ.

XXX at the end of CHASJPJZXXX does not stand for a missing value or a mistake: it indicates the head office of Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited. Some forms insist on 11 characters, and then you simply enter XXX after CHASJPJZ.

As a rule the code is typed in capitals, without spaces or dashes. Copying the code beats retyping it.

Verifying the SWIFT code of Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited

The most reliable place for the right code is a document from the bank itself. Check that code with CHASJPJZ on this page.

With a wrong code, the payment might get stuck, be returned or cost extra, and tracing it can take weeks. An error in the account number is a bigger problem because it can reach the wrong person, so check that just as carefully.

Most online banking apps validate the format of an IBAN and sometimes look up the BIC automatically. More and more banks check the name against the account. For a first payment, many people send a small test amount before sending the rest.

How up to date is this code?

The codes on this page are taken from public sources. Institutions merge, close branches and retire codes, and a directory never catches every change immediately. The number of codes on this page are based on our own data, not official figures from Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited.

For any payment that matters, always check the code with Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited or with the recipient.

Changed bank details? Be careful

Stay wary when someone suddenly wants you to send money to another account abroad. A correct SWIFT code says nothing about whether the request is genuine: scammers use real codes of real banks.

Before paying, confirm changed bank details through a phone call on a number you know, not one from the message. Watch out for urgent requests, odd spelling or an email address that differs by one letter. When a payment was sent to the wrong account, contact your bank immediately: the sooner they act, the better the chance of a recall.

Recipients are targeted too: a classic trick is a buyer who pays too much and then sends a request to refund the difference abroad. Wait until the money is actually in your account – ask Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited if something looks wrong.

Receiving money from abroad at Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited

When you are waiting for a payment from another country, give the sender everything they need in one go. In practice that means: your full name exactly as it appears on the account, your account number or IBAN, the SWIFT/BIC code CHASJPJZXXX and usually your postal address.

Certain banks also ask for the address of Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited in Tokyo; it does no harm to include it. Double-check each detail before you share them.

What lands in your account can be lower than what was sent. Correspondent banks can take a fee and your own bank may charge for processing, and if the money is converted, a markup on the rate applies. On invoices, it is common to state who bears the costs.

Choosing between the 2 SWIFT codes of Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited

Our directory lists 2 SWIFT/BIC codes for Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited in 1 places. Next to the head office code CHASJPJZXXX, you will find codes for individual branches and departments.

Unless the recipient tells you otherwise, use CHASJPJZXXX. A branch code only makes sense if the recipient’s bank specifically asks for it, which is more common for business accounts and specialised services.

If you are not sure, check with the recipient which code their bank gave them. Branch codes can change when banks reorganise, so a code from an old document is not always valid.

Sending money abroad from Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited

When you transfer money to another country from Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited, the visible fee is rarely all of the cost. There is the transfer fee, possibly fees charged by intermediary banks in between and, most importantly, the margin on the exchange rate.

The markup on the rate tends to be the biggest item, and it is easy to miss. A simple test: put the rate you get next to the mid-market rate for the same moment and work out the difference on your amount.

Money transfer services frequently use a rate near the mid-market rate. Next time you send money, it is worth comparing the total cost via GoldexPay rather than accepting the bank’s rate by default. Choosing a specialist does not require closing your account at Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited.

Transfer times and tracking a payment to Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited

An international transfer typically takes one to a few business days. Weekends and public holidays in either country can add extra days. Compliance checks by one of the banks may also add some delay, even when all details are correct.

Many banks use SWIFT gpi. Every payment carries a unique reference, the UETR, which your bank can use to see where the money is. Keep your transfer receipt until the recipient confirms; it contains the details a bank needs to start a trace.

A delayed transfer has to be traced from the sending side on the basis of the transfer details. Ask the sender for a copy of the payment confirmation including the reference – it helps your own bank look for the money.

The Japanese Yen and what conversion costs you

Accounts at Jpmorgan Asset Management (Japan) Limited are usually held in JPY, the local currency. Money sent in a different currency will be converted into JPY, and whoever converts it chooses the rate. You rarely see a separate charge for the conversion – the cost sits in the rate.

Who converts the money matters. Compare how much JPY the recipient gets with several services.

Rates for JPY change during the day – some services let you fix a rate in advance. On larger amounts, even small difference in the rate can be worth more than the fee.
