Protective custody - Hogoazukari

Japanese: 保護預り - ほごあずかり
Protective custody - Hogoazukari

A financial institution receives a certain fee to store assets such as securities, precious metals, jewels, and important documents from customers in order to prevent accidents such as fire, theft, and loss. Article 10 of the Banking Act provides for safe custody. In the broad sense, there are three types of safe custody: (1) open deposit (sealed deposit), (2) sealed deposit, and (3) safe deposit box. Of these, anything other than (3) is safe custody in the narrow sense. (1) is when the deposited item is stored in an open state with the contents clearly stated, (2) is when the deposited item is stored in a sealed bag or box, and (3) is when a safe deposit box installed in the bank's safe is loaned to the customer for use.

There are various types of safe deposit boxes, including full safe deposit boxes, simple safe deposit boxes, and safety cases. In terms of legal nature, (1) and (2) are paid safekeeping contracts, and (3) is a rental contract for a protective box. In addition, protective custody is considered an ancillary service in banking operations.
