Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report h BEATRIX POTTER™ ©FrederickWarne&Co., 2015 2015 The Trust Structure Meeting Peter Rabbit TM Beatrix Potter, the creator of Peter Rabbit, used to visit the Lake District in England every summer and made numerous drawings of the wild animals in its forests and fields. It was out of this that the world of Peter Rabbit and his companions was born. To protect her beloved Lake District from development, Beatrix Potter purchased vast tracts of land with her own funds. She also left the maintenance and management of the land after her death to the National Trust* in her will. Thus, the remarkable scenery of the Lake District has been preserved and passed on to the present day just as it was in Beatrix Potter’s day. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking has been using Peter Rabbit as its mascot since 1988 to express the company’s identification with the sentiments of Beatrix Potter as it carries out the great responsibilities of trust banking with pride. We provide a structure for administration, management and disposal of our customers’ valuable assets. *A group to protect the natural environment established to preserve scenery Settlor Beneficiary Assets Dividends Trust objectives Management, Disposal TM BEATRIX POTTER™ ©FrederickWarne&Co., 2015 Beatrix Potter ™ 1866-1943 Courtesy of Victoria and Albert Museum Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking (trustee) A trust is a legal mechanism in which the settlor entrusts assets owned, such as cash or land, to a trusted person or specialist (the trustee) in accordance with a certain objective (the trust objectives) for the benefit of the settlor himself or herself or INDEX The Trust Structure 2 The History of the Trust 3 Management Message 5 What We Do 7 Case Studies Next-Generation Support Trusts ●From Savings to Investment ●Supporting for Increased Corporate Value ●Corporate Real Estate (CRE) Strategy ●Investor Services ●Foreign Exchange Transactions ● 9 11 13 15 17 19 another person (the beneficiary), delegating the management Professional Human Resources 21 CSR 23 Through this trust settlor, Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Corporate Governance 27 Banking offers diverse services to numerous corporate and Compliance and Risk Management 32 individual clients, reliably conveying the will of the settlor (the Corporate Data 33 trust objectives) and appropriately managing and protecting the Global Network 35 entrusted assets. of the assets to the trustee. Editorial Policy ● This year, we have overhauled what has in the past been published as CSR Reports into the Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 as a comprehensive tool for communicating with all stakeholders. As concern with corporate social responsibility moves beyond legal compliance and risk management to the contribution companies make to resolving social challenges through their business, the Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 aims to communicate the company’s vision to stakeholders through the structure and social roles of trusts, our priority businesses and their underlying social challenges, and the sentiments of our employees who support us, going beyond the framework of conventional annual CSR activities reports. This report was not produced to sell the products described within. Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, the parent company of Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking, has issued the MUFG Report 2015 (integrated report), which should be read in conjunction with this report.

In this way, we are developing and providing a variety of trust products to meet today’s diversifying needs. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 4 Management Message Committed to Meeting the Needs of a New Era A Decade Transitioning from Integration to Growth This fiscal year marks the 10th anniversary of Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation (MUTB). Our success and growth over the last decade was made possible by the patronage and support of our stakeholders, which is something we are very grateful for. Looking back on these ten years, the first five were spent focused on integrating our organization, while the second five were used to develop a number of new products, which have earned us a strong reputation among customers. Today, we are committed to creating new markets, including the globalization of our business, in an effort to create opportunities for further growth. Delivering New Value based on Customer Feedback In July 2015, we broke through the JPY 1 trillion mark in terms of contract value of next-generation support trusts*. The reason we were able to create trust products with such a positive reception is because we gathered a broad range of feedback through our daily engagement with customers and used this information to develop new, innovative trust products. By using financial solutions across a wide range of business areas unique to trust banking, we have actively worked to solve the issues facing society and customers in order to propose new value for the future. Changes in our social structure including the declining birthrate and aging population will only 5 Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 accelerate more in the future. We stand committed to delivering new value by identifying the needs of society and carefully listening to the voices of our customers. *Next-generation support trusts: A collective term used to refer to the four trust products used to transfer assets between generations. These products include Calendar Year Gift Trust, Educational Fund Gift Trust, Zutto Anshin Trust, and Wedding and Child-rearing Support Trust. Delivering Services for a Globalized World Although the Japanese market is unlikely to see strong growth in the future given its rapidly declining population, the world’s population continues to increase and emerging countries continue to seek sharp and robust growth, both of which have resulted in more people looking for new affluence. Given this trend, we have actively invested in international asset management firms and asset administration companies as part of our approach to expand globally with a focus on our strengths as a trust bank. In Japan, enhancing corporate governance has become an important management task for Japanese companies looking to expand into global markets. As a result, we have reinforced new services tailored to this issue, such as support for adopting a globally recognized executive stock compensation plan. To meet the expectations of our clients around the world and to support our customers who are globalizing, we will proactively propose internationally competitive and high quality services as a member of MUFG a leading multinational financial services group. Dedicated to Being the Best Trust Bank for You As a trust bank, we employ a large team of highly experienced professionals in finance, accounting, legal affairs, securities and real estate. Their expansive expertise helps us to provide not only traditional banking services, but asset management, real estate, stock transfer agency, and inheritance related services as well. I believe one of my most important roles as President is to figure out ways to develop these human resources in Japan and abroad, and to create medium- to long-term growth by finding the right places to utilize our people effectively. A trust bank requires more than just advanced expertise. In addition to our legal obligations, we also must always act in the interest of customers using a set of highly esteemed ethics and professionalism to ensure we can faithfully fulfill the trust placed in us. The MUTB Group emphasizes this Fiduciary Duty in all of its actions. Correctly understanding this duty, every executive officer and employee will make continued efforts to reach higher levels for each of the three principles, “Morality and Trustworthiness,” “Strong Expertise,” and “Loyalty to Customers.” The Best Trust Bank for You. This phrase embodies our unwavering commitment to propose value creation that is considered to be the best of the best for our many stakeholders. We ask for your continued understanding and support as we move forward. Tatsuo Wakabayashi President and CEO Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation 6 What We Do “ We meet the diverse “needs” of customers with advanced expertise and a wide range of financial solutions. “ “ Based on Fiduciary Duty In the United Kingdom and the United States, a person who just contracts. And I said, ‘No, it is a different power relation- is entrusted with assets and/or authority and who provides ship.’ In contract, I can protect myself and my interest. But if professional services for the benefit of another party is called I give my money to somebody else, how can I protect myself a ‘fiduciary,’ with the typical examples being trustees, and my interest? If I go to a doctor, if I go to a lawyer, how can physicians, and attorneys. A fiduciary has a responsibility to I do that? The poor, very poor societies don’t have trusts, and serve its entrustors at all times in line with rigorous standards that’s why they are poor. The really successful societies are backed by strong expertise and ethical values. In other words, those who enable people to rely on each other.” a fiduciary duty is required.

Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 8 Case Studies Next-Generation Support Trusts We provide products to support the next generation that closely fit with the needs of customers. Four Products to Support the Future for Grandchildren and the Young At Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking (MUTB), we help with asset management while offering consulting to match our customers’ life plans. Amid rising interest in inheritance in recent years due to the aging of Japan’s population and changes in the social environment, we have worked to develop products that promote a smooth transfer of assets to the next generation. MUTB was the first in the industry to develop four products to steadily transfer assets from grandparents to children and grandchildren, which we offer as next-generation support trusts. MUTB offers the following products to transfer assets to the next generation: the Zutto Anshin Trust, which, in the event of the customer’s passing away, allows the bereaved family to easily receive money without burdensome inheritance paperwork; the Educational Fund Gift Trust (Magoyorokobu), which takes advantage of a tax exemption on monetary gifts to grandchildren and other family members for education purposes; and the Calendar Year Gift Trust (Okuru Shiawase), which handles the paperwork needed to make gifts to family members while the customer is living. Futhermore since April 2015, MUTB has also offered the new “wedding and child-rearing support trust,” which supports the gifting of funds to children, grandchildren, and loved ones to help with marriage and child-rearing costs. Through such services, MUTB is meeting a wide range of customer needs. I want to give family members a donation within a tax-free system while I am still alive I want my spouse and family members to receive the necessary money quickly should I pass away Calendar Year Gift Trust Okuru Shiawase Trust Inheritance trust Zutto Anshin Trust I want to help with my grandchildren’s education I want to help with my children’s and grandchildren’s weddings and child-rearing Educational Fund Gift Trust Magoyorokobu Wedding and child-rearing support trust Trends in Net Savings by Age Group (Millions of JPY) 25.0 24.5 24.0 23.5 23.0 22.5 Ages 60 – 69 22.0 6.5 6.0 5.5 5.0 Under 40 4.5 ‘05 ‘06 ‘07 ‘08 ‘09 ‘10 ‘11 ‘12 ‘13 ‘14 (Year) An uneven concentration of assets in the older generation has been identified as an issue faced by today’s aging Japanese society. The graph on the left shows trends in savings by age group. It is evident that while the savings of the younger age group are declining, savings are flat or rising among the older age group (ages 60 – 69). Household financial assets in Japan have now risen to more than some JPY 1,700 trillion, and people aged 60 and older are said to own 60% of these assets. To increase the flow of funds into the market and to revitalize the economy, it is necessary to create a social environment for the smooth inter-generational inheritance of assets. In this context, an environment that permits this is currently being established through a range of reforms in the tax system, including revisions to the gift tax rate and the creation of a tax exemption for the gift tax on educational funds and funds for marriage and child rearing. The First Japanese Bank to Top JPY 1 Trillion There has been a great response to our next-generation support trusts, which have also attracted customers who have never used a trust bank before. In July 2015, the total amount under contract topped JPY 1 trillion. Going forward, MUTB will strengthen its marketing and strive to develop trust products that fulfill the latent needs of customers. Next-Generation Support Trusts: cumulative amount under contract (Billions of JPY) 1,000 900 800 600 9 Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 459 400 280 300 200 100 0 Manager Retail Banking Business Planning and Development Division 689 700 500 Source: Savings and Liabilities by Household Attributes, Statistics Bureau, Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications Daisuke Hazehara 1,002 900 Experiencing the Unique Joy of a Trust Bank Constantly Making Better Proposals As one of the development staff for next-generation support trust products, I believe these products are popular because MUTB values customer’s voice. Customer needs are definitely not just about increasing their funds. We emphasize the development of products and services that closely fit the desires of customers and their families to make their grandchildren happy and live on in their memories. For example, with Magoyorokobu, which supports the gifting of educational funds while the customer is living, we offer a unique service that provides photographs with grandchildren and handwritten messages to them. Moreover, in addition to the “Prepayment” function that allows the withdrawal of educational fees without the need for payment in advance, we also plan to launch this fall a service for the withdrawal of educational fees via Internet banking. “I don’t want to be any trouble to my daughters if I happen to pass away.” The Zutto Anshin Trust is a product that can realize this sentiment. A lady in her late 70s once came into the branch, and it became clear in the course of a casual conversation that she had difficulties in the past with inheritance from her parents and was concerned about what would happen after her own death. Therefore, when I proposed the Zutto Anshin Trust, she was delighted and relieved that this product would make money available immediately for funeral expenses in the event of her passing. From these experiences, I am convinced that picking up on unspoken sentiments allows us to propose the right products to customers. I want to continue making proposals that fit closely with the wishes of customers so they say they are glad they asked me. 0.03 18 Mar. 2012 Sep. 2012 78 Mar. 2013 Sep. 2013 Mar. 2014 Sep. 2014 Mar. 2015 Jul. 2015 Miku Oshita Shinjuku Branch Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 10 Case Studies From Savings to Investment We are focused on developing products that meet the diverse asset management needs of individual investors.

As part of this, the government is trying to speed up a shift from savings to investment. In light of this shift, the Nippon Individual Savings Account (NISA: a tax exempt scheme for small-lot investment), launched in January 2014, has become so popular that the number of accounts reached approximately 8.79 million and the amount of NISA account purchases was approximately JPY 4 trillion as of March 31, 2015. An era is dawning when even those who believed investments had nothing to do with them will choose investment products as “investors.” 0 Source: Research on the Use of NISA Accounts, Financial Services Agency Providing High Value Added Asset Management Services Utilizing the Comprehensive Strength of the Group As a major player in corporate pensions, Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking has strived to develop and provide stable investment management over a long period to live up to the trust of institutional investors. We made full use of the investment management know-how we accumulated doing this to develop the Wrap Series for individual customers. In addition, Mitsubishi UFJ Kokusai Asset Management, which manages the investment trusts developed as the Wrap Series, was created through a merger between Mitsubishi UFJ Asset Management and Kokusai Asset Management on July 1, 2015. Combining the strengths of the two companies, including product development and investment management capabilities, our aim is to respond promptly to diversifying customer needs and offer quality, high value added asset management services. MUTB will leverage its total strength as a group to meet the diverse asset management needs of customers in addition to contributing to the development of the Japanese economy by encouraging a shift from savings to investment. Corporate ad used at the launch of Mitsubishi UFJ Kokusai Asset Management (July 1, 2015) As an Asset Management Advice Professional Since the introduction of NISAs, more customers who are first-time investors are visiting the branch, and I sense increased interest in asset management. Many of them say they do not know what they should buy for a NISA and that it is difficult to watch the market as they are busy, so we suggest the Wrap Series to a wide range of customers as a product that aims to secure stable returns over the medium- to long-term through diversified investment in domestic and overseas bonds and stocks. We try to provide easy-to-understand explanations to suit each customer to give first-time investors peace of mind about entrusting investing to MUTB. Yumi Nakanishi Shibuya Branch Developing Products that Target a Wide Range of Investors Creating a Lineup of Products to Match Customer Needs As more customers invest for the first time, we are hearing numerous comments about not knowing what to buy and wanting to leave investment management to an expert. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking’s Wrap Series was developed in response to these needs. The Wrap Series consists of products that take advantage of specialized expertise cultivated in the corporate pension field with the objective of securing stable returns over the medium- to long-term through diversified investment in domestic and overseas bonds and stocks. Our NISA products also include a diverse range of balanced invest- 11 Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 ment trusts that allow diversified investment for small amounts. We also offer “private accounts” with which, our asset management professionals, with their wealth of expertise, directly propose the best portfolio for customers to provide an integrated service from investment management through reporting. In September 2015, we also began offering the Mitsubishi UFJ Trust Fund Wrap, which accepts applications from JPY 5 million. Through this comprehensive lineup of products, we are meeting the diverse needs of our customers. Investment still accounts for a low proportion of Japanese household financial assets compared with other countries. To speed up a shift from savings to investment, it is essential to broaden the base of investors. With the Wrap Series, we have developed a lineup of products that use our pension management expertise to allow diversified investment even of small amounts. We will develop products that can appeal to a wide segment of customers from people investing for the first time to veteran investors. Hiroaki Nojiri Manager Product Development Division Mitsubishi UFJ Kokusai Asset Management Offering Advanced Investment Know-How to a Wide Range of Customers With Mitsubishi UFJ Balance Innovation, which we have been deploying for the Wrap Series, we flexibly change the allocation of each asset, such as bonds and stocks, according to the investment environment, adopting a technique that aims to curb downside risk. We offer this investment technique to customers, including corporate pensions, through our proprietary model developed with support from Mitsubishi UFJ Trust Investment Technology Institute, Japan’s first think tank specializing in financial engineering. We hope to provide such unique investment solutions to a wide range of customers. Koji Ishinaga Senior Manager Investment Management Division Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 12 Case Studies Supporting for Increased Corporate Value We help customers improve their corporate governance. As a Responsible Institutional Investor with Custody and Investment Management of Important Assets Declaration of Acceptance of Japan’s Stewardship Code Share sustainable growth scenarios Investment performance Increase corporate value Companies Dialogue MUTB Enhance performance Asset owner Entrustment of investment management On June 1, 2015, the Tokyo Stock Exchange put its Corporate Governance Code, the new governance guidelines for listed companies, into effect. The Code aspires to active governance, which seeks to increase corporate value through dialogue with shareholders, clarification of the role and responsibilities of the Board of Directors, and other means rather than use the risk avoidance-style governance of the past. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking (MUTB) offers Corporate Governance Code Compliance Consulting to support efforts to strengthen such corporate governance. MUTB forms a support project team composed of personnel involved in a wide range of fields such as corporate law, shareholder relations and investor relations, financial strategy, and stock compensation plans. The team confirms the customer’s compliance with the Code and governance issues from multi-faceted viewpoints. We also help strengthen customers’ corporate governance by assisting with problem-solving through a wide range of solutions that are unique to a trust bank. We provide diverse solutions that include, for example, consulting on the introduction of stock compensation plans for executives using trust schemes and stock option programs as well as advice on the effective use of real estate for improving ROE and M&A, and proposals for fund procurement methods aimed at improving capital costs. Moreover, based on our perspective as an institutional investor, we can also advise on constructive dialogue with shareholders and responding to the exercise of voting rights at general meetings of shareholders. MUTB supports active governance for customers through these diverse solutions, contributing to sustainable growth and enhancing corporate value over the medium- to long-term.

The Code mandates institutional investors pursue higher medium- to long-term investment returns for their customers and beneficiaries by enhancing and fostering an investee company’s corporate value and sustainable growth through constructive “purposeful dialogue.” The Trust Assets Business Unit at MUTB endorses and accepts the aims of the Code as a responsible institutional investor. MUTB is committed to fulfilling its stewardship responsibility with the objective of not only enhancing returns based on our investment strategy in active management, but also raising index returns in passive management. To this end, our dedicated proxy voting team, research analysts, and fund managers display their respective expertise while focusing their efforts on engaging in active dialogue with investee companies. In addition, since 2011 MUTB has been managing the Sustainable Growth Investment Fund, which emphasizes dialogue with investee companies. Going forward, we will fulfill our responsibility as an institutional investor by actively promoting dialogue aimed at medium- to long-term increases in corporate value based on the aims of the Code while leveraging our track record and experience in dialogue with such companies.

Changes in attitudes toward real estate Proposing the Optimal Real Estate Strategy Based on Business and Financial Strategies CRE strategy consists of initiatives to review ownership and use of corporate real estate from the strategic management perspective of “increased corporate value” to maximize real estate investment efficiency. The major feature of the CRE strategy offered by MUTB, which is a trust bank, is that rather than starting with a focus on corporate real estate alone, we research and assess the customer’s business and financial strategies and examine the processes in detail by identifying the current situation to drafting a strategy and to strategy execution. Investors focused on unrealized gains Integration of real estate and finance Increasing need for CRE strategies Demand for capital efficiency Impact of IFRS Changes in attitudes toward CSR Proposing Most Effective Use of Real Estate as a Strategy for Resolving Customers’ Management Issues Land Price Fluctuations in Six Major Cities (Land price index) 120 Average of all Categories Commercial Residential 110 100 90 80 70 60 0 ‘01 ‘03 ‘05 ‘07 ‘09 ‘11 ‘13 ‘15 With 2001 values set at 100, shows land price trends in six major cities (Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Kyoto, Osaka, and Kobe),material prepared based on Urban Land Price Index (Six Large City Areas), Japan Real Estate Institute. Hisayuki Tamura Business Division VIII 15 Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking provides corporate services drawing on a wide range of trust and banking functions that not only include financing and marketable financial instruments, but also pensions, real estate, transfer agent services, and foreign exchange transactions, to meet diversifying and increasingly sophisticated corporate financial needs. In particular, CRE strategy, which includes the effective use and buying of replacements of real estate and the removal of real estate from corporate balance sheets, has become even more important in recent years because of the increasing risks involved with real estate ownership due to fluctuations in land prices as well as the increase in shareholders who value capital efficiency. To meet these needs, MUTB proposes and executes the CRE strategy that is optimal from a management perspective based on the business and financial strategies of each individual company to support an increased corporate value. Through this unique approach, MUTB suggests options for resolving a customer’s various management issues such as debt, pensions, capital policy, research and development, and M&A, while proposing and executing strategies for the most effective use of corporate real estate. The specific use strategies possible are not limited to rearranging assets to improve performance. They also include proposals aimed at strengthening finances such as using funds obtained by removing real estate from the balance sheet to increase the reserve for retirement benefits or reduce interest-bearing debt. Examples of strategies also include plans to increase shareholder returns through share buy-back and strengthening business competitiveness by allocating funds to research and development and M&As. In this way, MUTB will continue using diverse solutions that maximize the utility value of corporate real estate to support increases in the corporate value of our customers. Identifying Needs Quickly and Drafting the Optimal Strategy as a General Consultation Service for Customers Sharing the joy of achievement within the whole team is an important part of job satisfaction Being responsible for corporate sales, I focus on providing solutions that match the diverse needs of customers. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in interest in CRE strategy, such as the removal of real estate from corporate balance sheets, which is partly attributable to improved real estate market conditions and the tendency to focus on ROE. In addition to quickly identifying the needs of customers, my role is to propose and execute the strategy that is optimal from the customer’s point of view while liaising closely with real estate business staff. When our proposals contribute to resolving the customer’s issues or increasing corporate value, thus expanding its business with MUTB, the job allows me to experience a sense of achievement for which there is no substitute. As the real estate market in the Tokyo metropolitan area heats up ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, customer expectations about the sale and effective use of real estate are rising sharply. Nevertheless, being involved in trust bank real estate operations, I believe that my role is to calmly assess “how to use real estate in order to develop the customer’s business” without being swayed by the mood of the market. Obviously projects are achieved with a team including corporate business staff and staff dealing with buyers and sellers, and, depending on the process, we also work with the customer to execute the strategy. For that reason a major attraction is being able to share with the entire team the joy of achieving the target results.

Martin Gilbert Establishing our alliance with MUTB, which has a large market share in Japan, in 2008 was a significant event for Aberdeen as we were developing our business globally. In fact, since forming our alliance, Aberdeen’s share price and balance of assets under management have tripled, while we have seen a six-fold increase in annual earnings through to the current year. We are grateful for MUTB’s full support for Aberdeen’s growth, as our business partner in Japan and a major shareholder. We have been collaborating in a range of areas that include MUTB’s Markets and Global business and Real Estate business. We want to expand and strengthen the collaboration areas in the global business while continuing to provide distinguished products for Japan, where the balance of assets under management exceeds JPY 400 billion, to generate a win-win relationship for both companies.

The team that I belong to is responsible for various roles including project management, development of IT systems used inside and outside of the company, improvement of work flows, and organizing appropriate trainings for employees. I do not have the chance to interact directly with our clients, however streamlining and upgrading in-house operations lead to improvements in services we provide to our customers. We are constantly aware of how our creative ingenuity brings advantages to our customers. The role of my team is to form a bridge between the front office in Tokyo and the operations in Dublin. To be precise, we not only brief customers about the status of management and the future outlook, but also function as a channel of communication to reflect customer demands to achieve better services. Although international communication has unique difficulties, such as language barriers and time differences, I feel fulfilled when a first-time customer says, “I would like to work with you again.” I am willing to provide services that exceed customer expectations, as well as create an environment that lets all team members think independently and try to improve our services. s FJ ic e s e r n a ti o n a l t In t M it s Tr u st er v gs is h iU in ub nd *1: European Market Infrastructure Regulation *2: Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive 100 .) .

Trading structure to meet forex dealing requirements of global corporations As the cross-border deals of corporations diversify, providing trading opportunities to meet customer needs has become an important business. Forex takes place in markets in every country, and to meet the needs of clients with global activities, our company as a whole has a structure that enable trading 24 hours a day through our Tokyo office working together with our overseas branches in London and New York. The value of inter-company trade has reached a huge scale, so that a move of 0.01 yen in exchange rates has a large impact on transaction amounts and can cause clients to make unexpected losses. We strive to provide improved service to our customers, by, for example, providing them with market information so they can make the right trade at the right time.

The areas where they are advancing and the types of deals they are making are diversifying and becoming more complex, and they require a high level of service in the area of foreign exchange transactions. Further, owing to the worldwide drop in interest rates, domestic and international investors are seeking high returns and turning to new investment products, and we also have to satisfy the needs of those investors. Our customers’ forex trading needs can be broadly separated into two categories. First, there are funds settlement and forex hedging requirements that arise when importing and exporting. Second, there are forex trading and hedging requirements for the cross-border investment activities of domestic and international investors. While quantitative easing continues worldwide, a variety of new financial products are created each day to satisfy investors’ needs, and many are managed in the form of investment trusts or funds. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking is actively working to strengthen its businesses accompanying such funds. As a result, opportunities to get closer to domestic and international investors have increased and we are seeing a lot of new need for forex dealings. To respond to such needs, we are striving to develop forex trading structures and provide market information appropriate to fund management. Further, the times when customers wish to trade depend on their locations, so cooperating with our overseas branches is indispensable. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 Aiming to be our clients’first choice for advice Being conscious of the importance of 0.01 yen The Fund Business Group mainly does forex deals with financial institutions performing investment management (life insurers, casualty insurers, banks, credit unions, etc.) and asset management companies. With interest rates low worldwide, domestic and international investors are increasing their transactions in emerging countries’ currencies and employing option strategies in search of higher returns, raising their level of expectations in forex transactions. To satisfy the requirements of these clients, in addition to basic market information, we also provide valuable services through regulatory information and new trading methods, and strive wholeheartedly to respond to clients’ doubts about what is realistically possible, involving all related divisions. Going forward, my goal is to have our clients say, “First, let’s ask Yoshitaka.” In the Industrial Corporate Business Group, we mainly do forex deals with industrial corporations involved in import and export. As more clients are expanding their trade with fast-growing emerging countries, they have a tendency to do more deals in emerging countries' currencies as well as the major currencies, and they are starting to take on great forex risk. As the person responsible for the forex business, while in the front line contacting our clients, I get a firsthand sense of the extent to which they are paying attention to their forex risk control. A difference of just 0.01 yen in forex rates has a large impact on our clients’ bottom line so I am working hard to provide high value added information so they don’t miss any trading opportunities, and paying close attention to our deals. I want to continue providing useful services to our clients while being conscious of the importance of 0.01 yen. Yasuaki Okimoto Business Coordinator Forex and Financial Products Trading Division Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 20 Professional Human Resources I wish to convey to our young employees a sense of mission as professionals, and to our customers of a younger generation the importance of building up their assets. How to broaden investment mentality across the whole Japanese society -Firstly tell us about your current duties. I originally gained experience in the field of asset management over a period of 25 years. In 2011, I moved to the Retail Banking Business Unit in order to pass on the knowledge I had gained to employees involved with our customers on a daily basis. Ever since, I have been providing training and business support to mainly young employees. However, more recently, opportunities to come into direct contact with customers have increased, such as a lecturing role at customer directed seminars. Kazuhide Ara General Manager (Consulting of investment products) Retail Banking Business Planning and Development Division - I understand you have written books and appeared on BS Japan’s “Nikkei Morning Plus” program as part of your role? Correct. I have been trying to explain to customers the importance of continuing to protect their valuable assets into the future through investment activity. This is because, across all of Japanese society, investment consciousness is low and the number of people getting their feet wet is limited. I believe the greatest reason for this is the length of time we have been in a continuing deflationary environment. In a deflationary environment, the purchasing power of money rises over time, so the value of one’s investments can be preserved even with low-interest savings and deposits. However with the policy of Abenomics, we are moving from deflation to inflation, so there are fears that in the future assets in such form will lose value. -So you mean that, in an inflationary environment, you must actively invest in order to preserve the value of your assets. When investing, you can take risks and try to increase your assets greatly with aggressive investments, or you can keep your risk low and aim to cope with rising prices and preserve the value of your assets with conservative investments. Until now when one would mention investment, the focus has been on the aggressive investments of the wealthy class, but in the future the importance of conservative investments focused on the young generation will increase. Born in 1958. In 1982, joined the then Mitsubishi Trust and Banking Corporation. Since 1985, involved in investment business at the asset management frontline as a forex dealer, fund manager and economist. Taking advantage of a career of over 25 years, he now writes market reports and lectures at investment seminars with vigor. -Getting people with no interest or knowledge of investing to appreciate its importance will not be easy. For sure, to gain the understanding of people with no expert knowledge of finance or investing, we need to change our thinking away from explanations that are directed at our employees. So through things like books and the BS Japan shows I am devising ways to make it explained easily in layman’s terms. Additionally, before contacting our customers, first I explain it to my wife who has no investment knowledge and does not hesitate to give me repeated criticism, which allows me to continue to make improvements. -What is your motivation to grapple with such work? With the increasing globalization of our economy, the politics and economic situations of foreign countries will inevitably have an increasing effect on our lives both now and in the future. In order to 21 Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 protect the advancement of our livelihoods, it is necessary to be aware of changes in the societal and economic environments both domestically and internationally, and to think more seriously about the best way to handle one’s wealth. You could say our mission and reward working at a trust bank is to help nurture an investment mentality in the younger generation so that they will have a sense of responsibility towards their assets and preserve their value. On the wish to convey to young employees the importance of creating relationships of trust with customers -While performing customer service activities, guidance and education of young employees is also important work. There is a limit to the number of customers with whom I alone am able to interact. But by passing on the know-how and knowledge I have developed and my understanding of investing individually to the employees who meet customers every day, I believe I am able to help a greater number of our customers. “An Introduction to Practical Investing” On sale from July 2015 via Nikkei BP Consulting. This is a basic investment book for the ordinary person, with a simple and easy-to-understand style, about the art of asset management and investments. -What are the things you deem important regarding guidance and education of young employees? Broadly speaking, there are two. The first one is to learn from the past. No matter how much knowledge and experience one has, no one is able to accurately predict the future. However since investment is conducted by humans, if we learn from the past we are able to get a hint of what the future might hold. Further, particularly when in contact with elderly customers, knowledge of major historical events is linked to one’s ability to understand a customer’s mindset and share discussions with them. -Please tell us about the other one. Even if just for a short time, be sure to look at the market every day. The market is like a living thing, changing from one moment to the next. By getting into a habit of observing those changes, thinking about their reasons and background, making predictions and sometimes getting them wrong, you can begin to polish your own view on the market for the first time. Since I myself send out a “Daily Comment” on the company intranet, with reference to information such as that I would like them to observe the market daily without fail. Appearing on BS Japan’s “Nikkei Morning Plus” program with “An Introduction to Practical Investing” (every weekday morning from 7:15am to 7:20am). The contents of the book are being introduced here. -Through such actions what kind of things would you like our young employees to take to heart? Of course there is knowledge and know-how. Even more than that, I would like them to value developing the human element and expertise required to gain the trust of our customers. As I said just now, no matter how great you are as an investment professional, you cannot accurately predict the future. There are occasions you are unable to advise correctly, therefore to gain a customer’s trust, you should act in their interests at all times. I would like them to understand fully the meaning of the words “Fiduciary Duty” as articulated by the company and, aiming for trustworthy professionalism with high expertise, to unwaveringly continue their personal studies. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 22 CSR Taking part in activities towards a bright future full of hope by accepting customers’ wishes and connecting them together MUTB’s CSR Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking (MUTB) wishes to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society by utilizing its functions as a trust bank and thereby fulfill its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Concretely, with the main themes of World Environmental Problems and Issues of an Precious “wishes” inherited from the past Aging Society and a Low Birthrate, we are moving forwards to provide products and services that meet the needs (or wishes) of our customers and society, and to encourage employee participation in social contribution activities. Activities to connect “wishes” across generations Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Precious “environment” inherited from the past 1 Activities to connect the “environment” to the next generation Initiatives for customers CS Initiative Policy All employees and management should continually ask, “ What should we do to improve our customer satisfaction?” and put it into practice. Not only the business personnel with direct customer contact, but employees from all areas including planning, administration and systems should question what needs to be done to gain customer satisfaction and persistently working on improvements. Further, based on this policy, each division is deciding their own concrete steps, so the company is working in a united fashion to raise its CS. Case Studies With a view to raising customer satisfaction levels, we strive to enhance the expertise of our businesses and improve our ability to respond. • Retail Education Program MUTB nurtures human resources to meet the individual needs of customers by working to improve their business knowledge and initiative in the four key areas of investment, loans, property succession, and real estate. • Teller Roleplay Contest for All Branches We hold a roleplay-style contest about teller (asset management advisors) counseling skills that suppose real customers. Representatives of all branches take part and learn customer skills together such as etiquette, listening skills and proposal generation skills, in order to improve counseling skills at each branch. Teller Roleplay Contest for All Branches Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Report 2015 Product and Service Initiatives (1) Provision of Products for an Aging Society with a Low Birthrate Wedding and Child-rearing Support Trust The "wedding and child-rearing support trust" was established in fiscal 2015 in line with a tax revision. The product allows funds transferred to loved ones for marriage or child-rearing to be transferred tax-free, and caters to customers that have expressed a desire to use their funds in a useful way to support their children and grandchildren in the event of marriage, child-rearing, and other significant life events. By utilizing its trust bank functions of connecting assets to provide four kinds of “next-generation support trust” products, our company will provide fine-grained answers to the aspirations of our customers in an aging society with a low birthrate on an individual basis. (2) Environmental Initiatives Promotion and dissemination of renewable energy To assist all employees and management towards improving customer satisfaction and increasing their support, the company has instituted a Customer Satisfaction (CS) Initiative Policy. 23 A sustainable future A bright future full of hope 2 With the aim of establishing renewable energy investment funds targeted at investors like pension funds, MUTB carried out silent partnership investments of its own capital (approximately JPY 3 billion) in solar power generation projects in Miyazaki and Osaka prefectures. Both investments were carried out under an R&D investment scheme. We expect an annual reduction of around 4,800 tons of CO 2 emissions as well as to supply power equivalent to around 1,800 households’ worth owing to these two investment projects. Going forward, MUTB will contribute to the full-scale introduction of renewable energy, which is also a goal shared by the Japanese government in its growth strategy. At the same time, MUTB will promote the provision of funds for mid- to long-term growth in the renewable energy market by leveraging finances from the private sector. Solar Power Projects MUTB Funded Location: Kunitomi Town, Miyazaki Prefecture Location: Yumeshima, Osaka Prefecture (“Osaka Hikarinomori”) (3) Towards a sustainable society Initiatives for ESG investments Global pension funds, and other investors pursuing stable investment returns, consider the business outlook and financial data when evaluating companies. They are also increasingly looking at a company's nonfinancial information such as environmental and social responsibility and corporate governance (ESG). MUTB, in addition to efforts in careful stock selection considering ESG in establishing and managing funds, suggests that they also consider placing more importance on the nonfinancial information of a Company when making investment decisions. Going forwards, by promoting fund management that takes ESG into consideration, and suggesting others also consider placing more importance on the nonfinancial information of a company, we are contributing to the realization of a sustainable environment and society.

In addition to promoting thorough compliance through strict adherence to all laws and regulations, both domestic and international, MUTB strives to achieve the high level of corporate ethics expected of trust banks by permeating “Our Fiduciary Duty,” which exemplifies the standards of thought and behavior expected of its executives and employees. Systematically, we have established a Compliance & Legal Division to oversee compliance, taken initiatives to promote compliance by settling on a compliance program and training, and deliver reports to the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors about the status of compliance with laws and regulations. We have built a structure to deliberate important compliance issues by establishing the “Compliance Committee” of which the President acts as chair, and the optional “Internal Audit and Compliance Committee” whose majority is composed of outside officers. Since the 2008 financial crisis, comprehensive and sophisticated risk management systems have been required of financial institutions. Also with MUTB developing its global business, understanding and controlling risk has become even more important than in the past. MUFG defines and classifies risks it manages at the group level, and MUTB is building out its management system to cover risks particular to each business line. In order to grasp all risks across the company, to evaluate the effect they might have on business management and to control risk in a unified way, MUTB has established the position of risk control officer and risk control divisions, and also councils and committees for risk management and administration. The Executive Committee and the various councils and committees monitor all risk types and deliberate on important issues relating to risk management and administration, and based on these the Board of Directors determines a risk management and administration policy.
