>If I understand this, the Japanese banks have 12 trillion $US exposure, a lot more than was previously thought. Is that correct?

Not really. If you got a $100,000 7% fixed mortgage and I've got a $100,000 6% adjustable, and we decide to swap payments, how much could either of us lose in this transaction?

>Also, do you have a link to this report? Thanks.
