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.

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. MUFG Report 2015 http://www.mufg.jp/english/ir2015/

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.

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.

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.

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.

The Japanese government has established growth strategies to
stimulate private investment as one of the three arrows of Abenomics.
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.”

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.

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.

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.

With Mitsubishi UFJ Balance Innovation, which we have been deploying for the Wrap Series, we flexibly change the allocation of each asset,

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

unique investment solutions to a wide range of customers.

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.

Share companies’ competitive advantages and the sustainability of those advantages
Japan’s Stewardship Code, introduced in February 2014, is a
code of conduct for institutional investors. 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.

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.

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.

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

Constantly aware of advantages for our customers
Services that exceed customer expectations
MUFG Investor Services is pursuing numerous projects to respond
to rapidly changing business environments by enhancing financial
regulations and establishing new businesses. 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.

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

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 globalization of Japanese corporations is accelerating. 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.

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.

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

(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

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.

(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.

“Peter RabbitTM Forest for the Future”
Kakehashi-Shintaku Ai-no-Kikin Fund
In May 2009, MUTB signed the Saitama Prefecture Afforestation Agreement” with Nagatoro Town and Saitama Prefecture;
based on this, forest conservation activities were initiated for
a community forest (about one hectare in size) on Hodo Mountain in Nagatoro Town. The forest was named “Peter Rabbit
™ Forest for the Future,” and employees and their families
joined in tree-planting and weeding activities. In July 2015, 70
people took part in tree-planting and weeding activities for the
10th anniversary of the merger that formed MUTB.
The fund collects membership fees (contributions) from
MUTB and affiliated company officers, employees, former
employees, and their families. The fund donates to support
the activities of social welfare organizations involved in
projects such as elderly welfare, health care and disaster
assistance nationwide. In fiscal 2014, it collected a total of JPY
7.2 million in donations for 18 groups. Since being established
in 1977, it has made a total of 854 donations with a cumulative
value of JPY 394.5 million.

Thorough compliance
with all laws
and regulations
We are building
a management system to
cover all kinds of risks
MUTB, as a member of the MUFG group, takes the Corporate
Vision as a base for the Principles of Ethics and Conduct, the
standard for decisions and acts made by group officers and
employees on a daily basis. 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.
