MUFG outlined a policy of further advancing integrated group management, with a view to becoming one of the world's top 5 and strengthening the flow of funds in Japan. At the earnings briefing, the shift to a growth-oriented mode was identified as a challenge.
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group has reached its 20th anniversary, and the results of its structural reforms are steadily becoming evident. Its current position is reflected in the fact that its market capitalization ranks among the highest of Japanese companies.
Going forward, the group plans to further advance integrated management across its businesses and stimulate the flow of funds in Japan and overseas. Strengthening coordination between governance and operations is expected as part of its strategy to become one of the world's top 5.
At a recent earnings briefing, MUFG stated that it had “not yet fully shifted from a structural reform mode to a growth-oriented mode,” identifying the feasibility of achieving growth-oriented management as an issue to be addressed.
As the group moves forward, attention will focus on deepening integrated group management and executing its growth strategy, while maintaining and improving its position among Japan's largest companies by market capitalization is also being cited as a de facto performance indicator.
