Japanese term or phrase: 為替手数料分を超えて円安に変動しない場合
Hi,

Having trouble accurately translating the above term, found in this sentence.

こ の結果、外国為替相場が円高に変動した場合のみならず、円安に変動した場合でも為替手数料分を超えて円安に変動しない場合は、利息を含めたお受取り時の円貨額がお預入れ時の円貨額を下回り、「元本割れ」が生ず ることがあります。

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
Luis

English translation:If the rate weakens but not by enough to exceed exchange commission fees
Explanation:
I am assuming the source document is about the risk of foreign currency-denominated deposits.

"As a result, not only if the yen exchange rate strengthens, but also if the rate weakens but not by enough to exceed exchange commission fees, the yen-denominated amount you receive (including interest) may be less than the yen-denominated amount you deposited. In other words, you may receive less than the principal amount deposited."

depreciation of the yen by an amount insufficient to recover transaction fees.


Explanation:
I think the above seems to get the gist, but the meaning gets a bit lost in translation. Try:

As a result, loss of principle will occur if the yen-denominated balance on withdrawal (including any accrued interest) is below the original deposit due to 1) appreciation of the yen or 2) depreciation of the yen by an amount insufficient to recover transaction fees.
