English Translation of Excerpts from Quarterly Securities Report Filed in Japan

This document is an English translation of selected information included in the Quarterly Securities Report for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 filed by Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (“MUFG” or “we”) with the Kanto Local Financial Bureau, the Ministry of Finance of Japan, on August 14, 2023 (the “Quarterly Securities Report”). An English translation of certain information included in the Quarterly Securities Report was previously submitted in a report on Form 6-K dated August 1, 2023. Accordingly, this document should be read together with the previously submitted report.

The Quarterly Securities Report has been prepared and filed in Japan in accordance with applicable Japanese disclosure requirements as well as generally accepted accounting principles in Japan (“J-GAAP”). There are significant differences between J-GAAP and generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. In addition, the Quarterly Securities Report is being filed in the context of other prior disclosures filed by MUFG in Japan and discusses selected recent developments taking into account those prior disclosures. Accordingly, you may need to review the following disclosure, together with other prior disclosures, to obtain all of the information that is important to you. For a more complete discussion of the background to information provided below, please see our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 and other reports filed with or submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by MUFG.

The following disclosure contains forward-looking statements, which, unless specifically stated otherwise, reflect our understanding as of the date of filing of the Quarterly Securities Report. Actual results may significantly differ from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In addition, although the Risk Committee identified the top risks below, there may be other material risks that emerge as we operate our businesses.

Risks Relating to Our Business

We describe below some major developments and changes to update our risk factor disclosure previously included in our annual securities report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 filed in Japan on June 27, 2023. The updates below are not a complete update of the prior disclosure, but instead intended to explain only the significant developments and changes that we believe may have a material impact on the risks to our business and other risks. The discussion below contains forward-looking statements, which, unless specifically described otherwise, reflect our understanding as of the date of filing of the Quarterly Securities Report.

The numbering of the subheading of the risk disclosure below corresponds to the numbering of the subheading of the same risk disclosure in our most recent annual securities report filed in Japan.

We determine the significance of various risk scenarios based on their impact and probability and identify potential risk events that are deemed to require close monitoring and attention for the next one-year period as top risks. The main top risks identified by our Risk Committee in July 2023 are as follows. By identifying these top risks, we seek to implement necessary risk management measures designed to minimize such risks to the extent possible and manage them in such a manner that they can be agilely dealt with in the event that they materialize. In addition, through management’s participation in discussions on such top risks, we strive to take effective measures based on a shared assessment of risks.

Main Top Risks

 

Risk events    Risk scenarios
Decline in capital sufficiency /
Increase in risk assets
  

•   Our capital management may be adversely affected by an increase in unrealized losses on debt securities due to a rise in interest rates globally.

Foreign currency liquidity risk   

•   Deterioration in market conditions may result in a depletion of foreign currency funding liquidity and an increase in our foreign currency funding costs.

Increase in credit costs   

•   Sudden deterioration in global economic activities may result in an increase in our credit costs.

•   Deterioration in the credit quality of particular industries or counterparties, to which we have relatively larger exposures, may result in an increase in our credit costs.

IT risk   

•   Cyber-attacks may result in customer information leakage, suspension of our services, and reputational damage.

•   System problems may result in our payment of financial compensation and damage to our reputation.

Risks relating to climate changes   

•   If our efforts to address climate change-related risks or to make appropriate disclosure are deemed insufficient, our corporate value may be impaired.

•   Our credit portfolio may be adversely affected by the negative impact of climate change on our borrowers and transaction counterparties.

 

*

These risk events are among the risk events that were reported to MUFG’s Board of Directors following the Risk Committee’s discussion in July 2023. These risk events include risk events of general applicability.

Risks relating to reforms of London Interbank Offered Rate and other interest rate benchmarks

We have various transactions, including derivatives, loans, bonds, and securitized products, that reference or referenced London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, and other interest rate benchmarks. ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, the LIBOR administrator, ceased publication of the one-week and two-month U.S. dollar LIBOR settings and all non-U.S. dollar LIBOR settings on a representative basis after December 31, 2021 and publication of all other U.S. dollar LIBOR settings after June 30, 2023.

In preparation for the discontinuation of the publication of LIBOR, we have been taking measures to deal with the reform of LIBOR and other interest rate benchmarks and the transition to alternative reference rates, and our transition away from LIBOR and related benchmarks with respect to transactions referencing LIBOR settings which ceased to be published after December 31, 2021 have been mostly completed, with a strategy in place for the remainder of such transactions. With respect to transactions referencing U.S. dollar LIBOR settings and which ceased to be published after June 30, 2023, although we have made substantial progress on our transition away from such U.S. dollar LIBOR settings and related benchmarks, we continue to take measures to complete such transition, while relying on legislative solutions for existing contracts that cannot feasibly be transitioned away from U.S. dollar LIBOR.

Such transition from LIBOR and other interest rate benchmarks to alternative reference rates is complex and entails uncertainty, including as to the economic characteristics and performance, market acceptance, and accounting and regulatory treatment of such alternative reference rates and the transition to such rates, and may have various adverse impacts on our business, financial position and operating results. In particular, among other things,

 

   

such transition may adversely affect the price, liquidity, profitability, and tradability of a wide range of financial instruments, such as loans and derivatives, included in our financial assets and liabilities that reference LIBOR and other interest rate benchmarks;

 

   

we may be unable to modify contracts with our counterparties to replace the reference rate for existing contracts based on or linked to LIBOR and other interest rate benchmarks with alternative reference rates as planned;

 

   

such transition may result in disputes with customers and counterparties concerning the interpretation of affected contracts or economic adjustments to the alternative reference rate adopted in connection with the reform of LIBOR and other interest rate benchmarks and the transition to alternative reference rates, or disputes concerning inappropriate trade practices or abuse of a dominant bargaining position in transactions with customers;

 

   

such transition may require us to respond to regulatory authorities in connection with the reform of LIBOR and other interest rate benchmarks and the transition to alternative reference rates; and

 

   

our operational and risk management systems may not be fully effective to deal with the reform of LIBOR and other interest rate benchmarks and the transition to alternative reference rates.

 

19.

Risks relating to regulatory changes

As a global financial services provider, our business is subject to ongoing changes in laws, regulations, rules, policies, accounting standards or methods, voluntary codes of practice and interpretations in Japan and other markets where we operate. Major global financial institutions currently face an increasingly stricter set of laws, regulations and standards as a result of emerging technologies, political and geopolitical developments, environmental, social and governance concerns, and other concerns enveloping the global financial sector. There is also growing political pressure to demand even greater internal compliance and risk management systems following several high-profile scandals and risk management failures in the financial industry and the resulting failures of financial institutions. The laws, regulations and standards that apply to us are often complex and, in many cases, we must make interpretive decisions regarding the application of such laws, regulations and standards to our business activities. Future developments or changes in laws, regulations, rules, policies, accounting standards or methods, voluntary codes of practice, interpretations and their effects are expected to require greater capital, human and technological resources as well as significant management attention, and may require us to modify our business strategies and plans. We may be unable to enhance our compliance management programs and systems, which, in some cases, are supported by third-party service providers, as required or planned. Our failure or inability to comply fully with applicable laws and regulations may lead to penalties, fines, public reprimands, damage to reputation, issuance of business improvement and other administrative orders, enforced suspension of operations, our inability to obtain regulatory approvals for future strategic initiatives or, in extreme cases, withdrawal of authorization to operate, adversely affecting our business and results of operations.

Additional Information

(Estimated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine situation relating to allowance for credit losses)

The process of calculating allowance for credit losses in our principal consolidated domestic banking subsidiaries involves various estimates such as determination of counterparty credit ratings which are based on evaluation and classification of counterparties’ debt-service capacity, assessment of the value of collateral provided by borrowers, and adjustments for future loss projections and other factors to the loss rates calculated based on historical credit loss experience.

Among these, internal credit ratings are assigned to counterparties based on qualitative factors such as the current and expected future business environment of the industry to which they belong as well as their management and funding risks in addition to quantitative financial evaluations through an analysis of their financial results. In particular, the uncertain business environment caused by such factors as the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine situation has had a significant impact on the financial position and operating results of certain counterparties. Determination of internal credit ratings for these counterparties may be highly dependent on our assessment of the prospects of improvements in their operating results and their ability to continue as going concerns.

When calculating allowance for credit losses, MUFG Bank, Ltd., our principal consolidated domestic banking subsidiary, determines expected loss rates primarily by calculating a rate of loss based on a historical average of the credit loss rate or a historical average of the default probability derived from actual credit loss experience or actual bankruptcy experience and making necessary adjustments based on future projections and other factors. The subsidiary makes such adjustments based on future loss projections and other factors to loss rates calculated based on historical loss experience, when and to the extent such adjustments are deemed appropriate, by taking into account the rate of increase in the credit loss rate or the default probability in a more recent period, additional expected losses and other factors, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine situation. The amount of impact of these adjustments was ¥64,269 million as of June 30, 2023 (¥69,569 million as of March 31, 2023).

In addition, certain overseas subsidiaries which apply Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326, “Financial Instruments—Credit losses,” provide for allowance for credit losses by estimating credit losses currently expected for the remaining term of the relevant contracts. Expected credit losses are calculated using a quantitative model that reflects economic forecast scenarios based on macroeconomic variables. The calculation process includes determination of macroeconomic variables used in multiple economic forecast scenarios and the weightings applied to each economic forecast scenario. Expected credit losses are adjusted for qualitative factors to compensate for expected credit losses that are not reflected in a quantitative model.

Significant assumptions used in our calculation of allowance for credit losses, including those described above, are subject to uncertainty. In particular, certain counterparties’ prospects of improvements in their operating results and expectations as to their ability to continue as going concerns, and adjustments to the rate of loss calculated based on actual experience for future projections and other factors, as well as determination of the macroeconomic variables used in, and the weightings applied to, multiple economic forecast scenarios, and adjustments thereto for qualitative factors, by certain subsidiaries which apply U.S. GAAP, are based on estimation relating to the economic environment with respect to which objective data are not readily available.

The outlook relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine situation, which are expected to further impact our counterparties’ operating environment and the economic environment, remains subject to significant uncertainty. Accordingly, we make certain assumptions, including that, COVID-19 restrictions on economic activity will be eased globally and normalization of economic activity will further progress, and that the uncertainty in the business environment caused by the Russia-Ukraine situation will remain. The recorded allowance for credit losses represents our best estimation made in a manner designed to ensure objectivity and rationality.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, the assumptions for making estimates relating to allowance for credit losses remained substantially unchanged because the observable changes subsequent to the end of the previous fiscal year in the factors and circumstances underlying the outlook relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine situation were not sufficiently significant to cause such change in the assumptions. However, these assumptions are highly uncertain, and significant additional provision for credit losses may be recognized for the six-month period ending September 30, 2023 and subsequent reporting periods due to these and other factors and circumstances affecting the financial performance of counterparties or the economic environment.

(Provisional closing of accounts of a significant equity-method affiliate)

Morgan Stanley, a significant equity-method affiliate of MUFG, closes its financial accounts based on a fiscal year-end of December 31 and, previously, the equity method of accounting was applied to Morgan Stanley’s consolidated financial statements as of the end of Morgan Stanley’s quarterly reporting period. However, from the perspective of providing financial information in a more timely manner, MUFG has decided to make modifications so that the equity method of accounting will be applied to Morgan Stanley based on a provisional closing of Morgan Stanley’s accounts as of the end of MUFG’s quarterly reporting period, effective from the beginning of the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Accordingly, for MUFG’s quarterly reporting period ended June 30, 2023, the equity method of accounting is applied to Morgan Stanley’s consolidated financial statements based on a provisional closing of accounts for the six-month period from January 1, 2023 to June 30, 2023, and MUFG’s consolidated financial statements for the quarterly reporting period ended June 30, 2023 reflect the impact of such provisional closing of accounts of Morgan Stanley.

For the period from January 1, 2023 to March 31, 2023, equity in earnings of the equity method investees related to Morgan Stanley is ¥101,560 million, losses on change in equity related to Morgan Stanley is ¥22,058 million, and share of other comprehensive income of associates accounted for using equity method related to Morgan Stanley included in other comprehensive income is ¥271,194 million.

Contingent liabilities

(Litigation)

In the ordinary course of business, MUFG is subject to various litigation and regulatory matters. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, MUFG establishes a Reserve for Contingent Losses arising from litigation and regulatory matters when they are determined to be probable in their occurrences and the probable loss amount can be reasonably estimated. Based upon current knowledge and consultation with counsel, management believes the eventual outcome of such litigation and regulatory matters, where losses are probable and the probable loss amounts can be reasonably estimated, would not have a material adverse effect on MUFG’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Management also believes the amount of loss that is reasonably possible, but not probable, from various litigation and regulatory matters is not material to MUFG’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Financial Instruments

The following shows those financial instruments as of June 30, 2023 which were deemed material in the management of our group company businesses and showed material changes as compared to those as of March 31, 2023.

The following tables do not include investment trusts which are accounted for in accordance with Paragraphs 24-3 and 24-9 of ASBJ Implementation Guidance No. 31, “Implementation Guidance on Accounting Standard for Fair Value Measurement” (ASBJ, June 17, 2021) (“Implementation Guidance on Fair Value Measurement”). (See Note (*2) to each of the tables under (1) below.)

The fair values of financial instruments are classified into the following three levels depending on the observability and significance of the input used in the fair value calculation.

Level 1: Fair value determined based on (unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2: Fair value determined based on directly or indirectly observable inputs other than the Level 1 inputs

Level 3: Fair value determined based on significant unobservable inputs

Where multiple inputs are used with a significant impact on the fair value calculation, the fair value of a financial instrument is classified based on the lowest of the priority levels to which any of those inputs belongs.
