expected, intended or planned, or otherwise stated.
Our forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks anduncertainties. Actual results may differ from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various

Risk Factors

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks describedin this section, which is intended to disclose all of the risks that we consider material based on the information
currently available to us, as well as all the other information in this Annual Report, including our consolidated
financial statements and related notes, “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” “Item 11.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk” and “Selected Statistical Data.”
Our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected by any of
the factors discussed below. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these factors. This
Annual Report also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results
could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors,
including those described in this section and elsewhere in this Annual Report. See “Forward-Looking
Statements.”

Risks Related to Our Business
Because a large portion of our assets as well as our business operations are in Japan, we may incur
losses if economic conditions in Japan worsen.
Our performance is particularly affected by the general economic conditions of Japan where we areheadquartered and conduct a significant amount of our business. As of March 31, 2017, 64.4% of our total assets
were related to Japanese domestic assets, including Japanese national government and Japanese government
agency bonds, which accounted for 62.3% of our total investment securities portfolio and 9.1% of our total
assets, respectively. Interest and non-interest income in Japan represented 45.5% of our total interest andnon-interest income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. Furthermore, as of March 31, 2017, our loans inJapan accounted for 56.7% of our total loans outstanding.
7

There is significant uncertainty surrounding Japan’s economy. For example, Japan’s fiscal health andsovereign creditworthiness may deteriorate if the Japanese government’s economic measures and the Bank ofJapan’s monetary policies prove ineffective or result in negative consequences. If the prices of Japanese
government bonds decline rapidly, resulting in an unexpectedly sudden increase in interest rates, our investment
securities portfolio as well as our lending, borrowing, trading and other operations may be negatively impacted.
In recent periods, major credit rating agencies have downgraded the credit ratings of Japan’s sovereign debt,
including a downgrade by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. in December 2014, a downgrade by Fitch Ratings, Ltd.
in April 2015 and downgrade by Standard and Poor’s in September 2015. In addition, interest rates may suddenly
increase as a result of a decision made by the Bank of Japan to end its current interest rate policy, including thenegative interest rate of minus 0.1% applied to certain current account amounts that financial institutions hold at
the Bank of Japan and the Japanese government bond purchase program with an aim to keep the yield of 10-year
Japanese government bonds around zero percent, or market expectations relating to any such decision.
See “—Risks Related to Our Business—Fluctuations in interest rates could adversely affect the value or the yieldof our bond portfolio.”
Instability in the Japanese stock market and foreign currency exchange rates may also have a significant
adverse impact on our asset and liability management as well as our results of operations. Various other factors,
including the decreasing and aging demographics in Japan, stagnation or deterioration of economic and market
conditions in other countries, and growing global competition, may also have a material negative impact on theJapanese economy. For a detailed discussion on the business environment in Japan and abroad, see “Item 5.
Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Business Environment.”
Since our domestic loans in Japan accounted for a significant portion of our loan portfolio, deteriorating or
stagnant economic conditions in Japan may cause adverse effects on our financial results, such as increases incredit costs, as the credit quality of some borrowers could deteriorate. For example, due to the intensifying global
competition and weakening consumer spending in recent periods, some Japanese companies, including
electronics manufacturers, have experienced significant financial difficulties. For a further discussion,see “—Risks Related to Our Business—We may suffer additional credit-related losses in the future if ourborrowers are unable to repay their loans as expected or if the measures we take in reaction to, or in anticipationof, our borrowers’ deteriorating repayment abilities prove inappropriate or insufficient.”
Our domestic loan portfolio may also be adversely affected by interest rate fluctuations in Japan. For
example, as a result of the Bank of Japan’s interest rate policy and measures to purchase Japanese government
bonds in the market, the yield on many financial instruments and other market interest rates in Japan havedeclined to low or negative levels. If the Bank of Japan’s policy and measures are maintained for an extended
period, or if the Bank of Japan’s negative interest rate is lowered from the current level, market interest rates may
decline further, and our interest rate spread on our domestic loan portfolio may narrow further, reducing our net
interest income.
If the global economy deteriorates, our credit-related losses may increase, and the value of the financial
instruments we hold may decrease, resulting in losses.
Global economic conditions remain volatile, and it is uncertain how the global economy will evolve overtime. Factors that could negatively impact global market, both developed and emerging, include concerns overthe possible negative impact on global economic activity resulting from changes in the trade policies of various
countries, the potentially serious ramifications of the process of the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from theEuropean Union, the potential negative effect from the monetary policy changes expected in the United States,
slowing economic growth in China in the midst of a shift in the government’s economic policy, weakening
economic conditions in commodity-exporting countries that have been affected by the decline in oil and othercommodity prices, and the political turmoil in various regions around world. As of March 31, 2017, based
principally on the domicile of the obligors, assets related to the United States accounted for approximately 15.5%
of our total assets, assets related to Asia and Oceania excluding Japan accounted for approximately 8.5% of our
8total assets, and assets related to Europe accounted for approximately 8.0% of our total assets. If the global
economy deteriorates or the global economic recovery significantly slows down again, the availability of credit
may become limited, and some of our borrowers may default on their loan obligations to us, increasing our credit
losses. Some of our credit derivative transactions may also be negatively affected, including the protection wesold through single name credit default swaps, and index and basket credit default swaps. The notional amountsof these protections sold as of March 31, 2017 were ¥2.08 trillion and ¥0.75 trillion, respectively. In addition, if
credit market conditions worsen, our capital funding structure may need to be adjusted or our funding costs may
increase, which could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore, we have incurred losses, and may incur further losses, as a result of changes in the fair valueof our financial instruments resulting from weakening market conditions. For example, declines in the fair valueof our investment securities, particularly equity investment securities, resulted in our recording impairment lossesof ¥5.9 billion, ¥37.2 billion and ¥33.8 billion for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017,
respectively. As of March 31, 2017, approximately 27.2% of our total assets were financial instruments for which
we measure fair value on a recurring basis, and less than 0.5% of our total assets were financial instruments forwhich we measure fair value on a non-recurring basis. Generally, in order to establish the fair value of these
instruments, we rely on quoted prices. If the value of these financial instruments declines, a corresponding writedown may be recognized in our consolidated statements of income. In addition, because we hold a large amountof investment securities, short-term fluctuations in the value of our securities may trigger losses or exit costs for
us to manage our risk. For more information on our valuation method for financial instruments, see“Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Critical Accounting Estimates.”
We may suffer additional credit-related losses in the future if our borrowers are unable to repay theirloans as expected or if the measures we take in reaction to, or in anticipation of, our borrowers’ deteriorating
repayment abilities prove inappropriate or insufficient.
When we lend money or commit to lend money, we incur credit risk, which is the risk of losses if ourborrowers do not repay their loans. We may incur significant credit losses or have to provide for a significant
amount of additional allowance for credit losses if:‰

large borrowers become insolvent or must be restructured;‰domestic or global economic conditions, either generally or in particular industries in which large
borrowers operate, deteriorate;‰

the value of the collateral we hold, such as real estate or securities, declines; or‰

we are adversely affected by corporate credibility issues among our borrowers, to an extent that is worse
than anticipated.

As a percentage of total loans, impaired loans, which primarily include nonaccrual loans and troubled debt
restructurings, or TDRs, ranged from 1.40% to 2.23% as of the five most recent fiscal year-ends. As of March 31,
2017, impaired loans were ¥1,715.9 billion, representing 1.45% of our total outstanding loans. If the economic
conditions in Japan or other parts of the world, in particular industries, including the energy and real estateindustries, to which we have significant credit risk exposure worsen, our problem loans and credit-related
expenses may increase. An increase in problem loans and credit-related expenses would adversely affect our
results of operations, weaken our financial condition and erode our capital base.
We may provide additional loans, equity capital or other forms of support to troubled borrowers in order tofacilitate their restructuring and revitalization efforts. We may also forbear from exercising some or all of ourrights as a creditor against them, and we may forgive loans to them in conjunction with their debt restructurings.
We may take these steps even when such steps might not be warranted from the perspective of our short-term or
narrow economic interests or a technical analysis of our legal rights against those borrowers, in light of otherfactors such as our longer-term economic interests, and our commitment to support the Japanese economy. These9

practices may substantially increase our exposure to troubled borrowers and increase our losses. Credit losses
may also increase if we elect, or are forced by economic or other considerations, to sell or write off our problem
loans at a larger discount, in a larger amount or in a different time or manner, than we may otherwise want.
Although we, from time to time, enter into credit derivative transactions, including credit default swap
contracts, to manage our credit risk exposure, such transactions may not provide the protection against credit
defaults that we intended due to counterparty defaults or similar issues. The credit default swap contracts could
also result in significant losses. As of March 31, 2017, the total notional amount of the protection we soldthrough single name credit default swaps and index and basket credit default swaps was ¥2.83 trillion. In
addition, negative changes in financial market conditions may restrict the availability and liquidity of credit
default swaps. For more information on our credit derivative transactions, see Note 24 to our consolidated
financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Our loan losses could prove to be materially different from our estimates and could materially exceed ourcurrent allowance for credit losses, in which case we may need to provide for additional allowance for credit
losses and may also record credit losses beyond our allowance. Our allowance for credit losses in our loan
portfolio is based on evaluations of customers’ creditworthiness and the value of collateral we hold. For the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017, we recorded ¥253.7 billion of provision for credit losses. Negative changes in
economic conditions, government policies or our borrowers’ repayment abilities could require us to provide for
additional allowance. While we closely observe conditions of our individual borrowers and industry trends, ourborrowers may incur financial and non-financial losses that exceed our estimations depending on, for example,
domestic and international economic conditions or commodity price fluctuations. In such case, we may need toprovide for additional allowance for credit losses. Also, the regulatory standards or guidance on establishingallowances may also change, causing us to change some of the evaluations used in determining the allowances.
As a result, we may need to provide for additional allowance for credit losses.
Our efforts to diversify our portfolio to avoid any concentration of credit risk exposures to particularindustries or counterparties may prove insufficient. For example, our credit exposures to the energy and realestate industries are relatively high in comparison to other industries. The credit quality of borrowers in this
sector do not necessarily correspond to general economic conditions in Japan or other part of the world, andadverse fluctuations in oil and other commodity prices or adverse developments in the real estate market may
disproportionately increase our credit costs.
When there is an improvement in asset quality, credit for credit losses is recorded in our consolidated
statements of income to reverse the allowance for credit losses to a level management deems appropriate. For
example, for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2016 and 2017, while we recorded provisions for credit losses forour entire loan portfolio, we recorded ¥9.5 billion of credit for credit losses for the Residential segment of ourloan portfolio for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, and ¥0.1 billion of credit for credit losses for the MUAH
segment for the fiscal year ended Mach 31, 2017. However, we have historically provided for credit losses rather
than recording credit for credit losses in most periods, and in future periods we may need to recognize aprovision for credit losses.
For more information on our loan portfolio, see “Item 5.B. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—
Liquidity and Capital Resources—Financial Condition—Loan Portfolio.”
Fluctuations in interest rates could adversely affect the value or the yield of our bond portfolio.
The aggregate carrying amount of the Japanese government and corporate bonds and foreign bonds,
including U.S. Treasury bonds, that we held as of March 31, 2017 was 10.1% of our total assets. In particular, theJapanese national government and Japanese government agency bonds accounted for 9.1% of our total assets asof March 31, 2017. For a detailed discussion of our bond portfolio, see “Selected Statistical Data—Investment
Portfolio.”
10The Bank of Japan has maintained a “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with negative interest
rates” policy and applied a negative interest rate of minus 0.1% to the “Policy-Rate Balances,” which are a partof current account amounts held by financial institutions at the Bank of Japan, while purchasing Japanese
government bonds to increases its aggregate holding of such bonds by approximately ¥80 trillion each year. In
September 2016, the Bank of Japan introduced a “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with yield curve
control” policy, adding to its monetary policy a Japanese government bond purchase program with an aim to
keep the yield of 10-year Japanese government bonds around zero percent. If the policy is maintained in Japanfor an extended period, or if the Bank of Japan’s negative interest rate or target long-term interest rate is loweredfrom the current level, market interest rates may decline further, and the yield on the Japanese government bonds
and other financial instruments that we hold may also decline. On the other hand, the value of our investment
portfolio may decrease if interest rates increase rapidly or significantly because of heightened market
expectations for tapering or cessation of the current policy in Japan. Separate from the Bank of Japan’s monetary
policies, interest rates could also significantly increase in the event that Japanese government bonds decline invalue due to such factors as a decline in confidence in the Japanese government’s fiscal administration, further
issuances of Japanese government bonds in connection with emergency economic measures or in the event thatinterest rates on U.S. Treasury securities rise due to such factors as increases in the policy interest rate, additional
issuances of government bonds, or an actual or expected reduction in the balance sheet of the Federal Reserve
Board, or FRB. If relevant interest rates increase for these or other reasons, particularly if such increase is
unexpected or sudden, we may incur significant losses on sales of, and valuation losses on, our bond portfolio.
See “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Business Environment.”
Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may result in transaction losses on translation ofmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as well as foreign currency translation
losses with respect to our foreign subsidiaries and equity method investees.
Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates against the Japanese yen create transaction gains or losseson the translation into Japanese yen of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. To theextent that our foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities are not matched in the same currency orappropriately hedged, we could incur losses due to future foreign exchange rate fluctuations. During the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017, the average balance of our foreign interest-earning assets was ¥94.01 trillion and theaverage balance of our foreign interest-bearing liabilities was ¥57.22 trillion, representing 39.3% of our average
total interest-earning assets and 25.6% of our average total interest-bearing liabilities during the same period.
Due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, we may incur losses attributable to net transaction losses on
the translation into Japanese yen of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, net losses
on currency derivative instruments entered into for trading purposes, and net losses on translation into Japanese
yen of securities accounted for under the fair value option. In addition, we may incur foreign currency translation
losses with respect to our foreign subsidiaries and equity method investees due to fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates. The average exchange rate for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was ¥108.38 per U.S.$1.00,
compared to ¥120.14 per U.S.$1.00 for the previous fiscal year. The change in the average exchange rate of theJapanese yen against the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies had the effect of decreasing total revenue by¥305.1 billion, decreasing net interest income by ¥195.7 billion and income before income tax expense by¥97.6 billion, respectively, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. In addition, the exchange rate between theJapanese yen and the U.S. dollar was ¥112.19 as of March 31, 2017, compared to ¥112.68 to the U.S. dollar as ofMarch 31, 2016. As a result, we recorded ¥407.4 billion of net foreign exchange losses related to the fair value
option for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. The Japanese yen was ¥112.39 to the U.S. dollar on June 30,
2017. For more information on foreign exchange gains and losses and foreign currency translation gains andlosses, see “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Business Environment” and “Item 5.A.
Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Operating Results.”
If the Japanese stock market or other global markets decline in the future, we may incur losses on our
securities portfolio and our capital ratios will be adversely affected.
A decline in Japanese stock prices could reduce the value of the Japanese domestic marketable equity
securities that we hold, which accounted for 14.1% of our total investment securities portfolio, and 2.1% of our
11total assets, as of March 31, 2017. The Nikkei Stock Average, which is the average of 225 blue chip stocks listedon the Tokyo Stock Exchange, fluctuated throughout the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, declining to an
intra-day low of ¥14,952.02 on June 24, 2016 and rising to an intra-day high of ¥19,633.75 on March 13, 2017.
On June 2, 2017, the closing price of the Nikkei Stock Average exceeded ¥20,000 for the first time since
December 2015. As of June 30, 2017, the closing price of the Nikkei Stock Average was ¥20,033.43. The Nikkei
Stock Average has fluctuated in recent periods, and may fluctuate to a greater extent in future periods, as theglobal economy remains volatile and investors continue to observe the changes in economic and monetary
policies mainly in Japan, the United States, the Eurozone and Asian countries. In addition, weakening or stagnant
economic conditions in these and other regions may have a significant negative impact on Japanese companies,
which in turn will cause their stock prices to decline. Concerns over the impact of geopolitical tensions andconflicts in various parts of the world on Japanese companies may also adversely affect stock prices in Japan. In
addition, the global trend towards further reduction in risk assets could result in lower stock prices, and the recent
trend in Japan towards strengthening corporate governance may subject public companies to stricter scrutiny. See“Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Business Environment” and “Item 5.B. Operating and
Financial Review and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Investment Portfolio.”
We may become subject to regulatory actions or other legal proceedings relating to our transactions orother aspects of our operations, which could result in significant financial losses, restrictions on ouroperations and damage to our reputation.
We conduct our business subject to ongoing regulation and associated regulatory and legal risks. Global
financial institutions, including us, currently face heightened regulatory scrutiny as a result of the concerns
developing in the global financial sector, and growing public pressure to demand even greater regulatory
surveillance following several high-profile scandals and risk management failures in the financial industry. In thecurrent regulatory environment, we are subject to various regulatory inquiries or investigations from time to timein connection with various aspects of our business and operations. In addition, multiple government authorities
with overlapping jurisdiction more frequently conduct investigations and take other regulatory actions incoordination with one another or separately on the same or related matters.
In November 2014, BTMU entered into a consent agreement with the New York State Department of
Financial Services, or DFS, to resolve issues relating to instructions given to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or
PwC, and the disclosures made to DFS in connection with BTMU’s 2007 and 2008 voluntary investigation of
BTMU’s U.S. dollar clearing activity toward countries under U.S. economic sanctions. BTMU had hired PwC to
conduct a historical transaction review report in connection with that investigation, and voluntarily submitted thereport to DFS’s predecessor entity in 2008. Under the terms of the agreement with DFS, BTMU made a paymentof $315 million to DFS, and agreed to take actions on persons involved in the matter at that time, relocate its
U.S. Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering, or BSA/AML, and Office of Foreign Assets Control, or OFAC,
sanctions compliance programs to New York, and extend, if regarded as necessary by DFS, the period during
which an independent consultant is responsible for assessing BTMU’s internal controls regarding compliancewith applicable laws and regulations related to U.S. economic sanctions. In June 2013, BTMU reached anagreement with DFS regarding inappropriate operational processing of U.S. dollar clearing transactions withcountries subject to OFAC sanctions during the period of 2002 to 2007. Under the terms of the June 2013agreement, BTMU made a payment of $250 million to DFS and retained an independent consultant to conduct acompliance review of the relevant controls and related matters in BTMU’s current operations. In December 2012,
BTMU agreed to make a payment of approximately $8.6 million to OFAC to settle potential civil liability forapparent violations of certain U.S. sanctions regulations from 2006 to 2007. BTMU is having continuing
discussions on these and related issues with relevant regulators, including concerning extending the term of the
independent consultant, and is undertaking necessary actions relating to these matters.
We have received requests and subpoenas for information from government agencies in some jurisdictions
that are conducting investigations into past submissions made by panel members, including us, to the bodies thatset various interbank benchmark rates as well as investigations into foreign exchange related practices of global
financial institutions. We are cooperating with these investigations and have been conducting an internal
12investigation among other things. In connection with these matters, we and other financial institutions are
involved as defendants in a number of civil lawsuits, including putative class actions, in the United States.
These developments or other similar matters may result in additional regulatory actions against us oragreements to make significant additional settlement payments. These developments or other matters to which
we are subject from time to time may also expose us to substantial monetary damages, legal defense costs,
criminal and civil liability, and restrictions on our business operations as well as damage to our reputation. The
outcome of such matters, including the extent of the potential impact of any unfavorable outcome on our
financial results, however, is inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. The extent of financial, human andother resources required to conduct any investigations or to implement any corrective or preventive measures issimilarly uncertain and could be significant. Such resources may also be difficult for us to secure in a timely
manner.
Legal and regulatory changes could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition andresults of operations.
As a global financial services provider, our business is subject to ongoing changes in laws, regulations,policies, 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 aresult of the concerns enveloping the global financial sector. There is also growing political pressure to demandeven greater internal compliance and risk management systems following several high-profile scandals and risk
management failures in the financial industry. We may not be able to enhance our compliance risk management
systems and programs, which, in some cases, are supported by third-party service providers, in a timely manneror as planned. Our risk management systems and programs may not be fully effective in preventing all violationsof laws, regulations and rules applicable locally or on a global basis to our subsidiaries, offices and branches.
Our failure or inability to comply fully with applicable laws and regulations could lead to fines, public
reprimands, damage to reputation, civil liability, enforced suspension of operations or, in extreme cases,
withdrawal of authorization to operate, adversely affecting our business and results of operations. Legal or
regulatory compliance failure may also adversely affect our ability to obtain regulatory approvals for future
strategic initiatives. Furthermore, failure to take necessary corrective action, or the discovery of violations oflaws in the process of further review of any of the matters mentioned above or in the process of implementing
any corrective measures, could result in further regulatory action.
We could also be required to incur significant expenses to comply with new or revised regulations. For
example, if we adopt a new information system infrastructure in the future, we may be required to incur
significant additional costs for establishing and implementing effective internal controls, which may materiallyand adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Future developments or changes in laws, regulations, policies, voluntary codes of practice 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. For example, since March 31, 2013,
Japanese banking institutions with international operations have become subject to stricter capital adequacy
requirements adopted by the FSA based in part on the international regulatory framework generally known as“Basel III.” Furthermore, on March 31, 2016, the capital conservation buffer, countercyclical buffer andsurcharge for global systematically important banks, or G-SIBs, became applicable to Japanese banking
institutions with international operations, including us, and these additional capital adequacy requirements are
expected to become stricter in phases over the next few years. For more information, see “—Risks Related to Our
Business—We may not be able to maintain our capital ratios above minimum required levels, which could resultin the suspension of some or all of our operations.” and “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business
Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan.”
Furthermore, regulatory reforms recently implemented, proposed and currently being debated in the
United States may also significantly affect our business operations. For example, in July 2016, we established13

MUAH as a U.S. intermediate holding company, or IHC, and reorganized our U.S. bank and non-banksubsidiaries under MUAH pursuant to rules adopted by the Federal Reserve Board, or FRB, in February 2014.
Under the FRB rules, MUAH is also subject to U.S. capital requirements, capital stress testing, liquidity buffer
requirements, and other enhanced prudential standards comparable to those applicable to top-tier U.S. bankholding companies of the same size. We are continuing to devote resources and management attention on
establishing an appropriate governance structure with effective internal control systems for MUAH designed toensure compliance with the rules on an on-going basis. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business
Overview—Supervision and Regulation—United States.”
Global financial regulatory reform measures may also have a significant impact on our business operations.
For example, various international organizations, including the Financial Stability Board and the BaselCommittee on Banking Supervision, are currently considering ways to address, among other things, credit
valuation adjustment, or CVA, and leverage ratio requirements as well as revisions to methods of calculating theamount of risk-weighted assets. We intend to continue to monitor developments relating to global regulatory
reforms.
Any adverse changes in the business of MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation, a wholly owned
subsidiary in the United States, could significantly affect our results of operations.
MUAH, which is a wholly owned subsidiary in the United States formerly called UnionBanCal Corporation,
or UNBC, and which is our IHC in the United States, has historically contributed to a significant portion of net
income attributable to the Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. MUAH reported net income of $782 million,$644 million and $990 million for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively. Any
adverse developments which could arise at MUAH may have a significant negative impact on our results ofoperations and financial condition. For more information, see “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business
Overview—Global Business Group—MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (MUB).”
Factors that have negatively affected, and could continue to negatively affect, MUAH’s results of operations
include difficult economic conditions, such as a downturn in the real estate and housing industries in California
and other states within the United States, the fiscal challenges being experienced by the U.S. federal and
California state governments, substantial competition in the banking markets in the United States and uncertainty
over the U.S. economy, as well as negative trends in debt ratings and interest rate uncertainties. In recent periods,
declining oil and gas prices have adversely affected the credit conditions of borrowers in the energy sector andrelated industries, resulting in an increase in credit costs. In addition, since the financial crisis in 2008 and 2009,
the U.S. banking industry has operated in an extremely low interest rate environment as a result of the highly
accommodative monetary policy of the FRB, which has placed downward pressure on the net interest margins of
U.S. banks, including MUAH. Although the FRB began raising its policy interest rate in December 2015, interest
rates have remained at low levels in the United States. Sudden fluctuations in interest rates may negatively affect
MUAH’s results of operations.
Significant costs may arise from enterprise-wide compliance and risk management requirements, or failure
to comply, with applicable laws and regulations, such as the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act and related amendments
under the USA PATRIOT Act, and any adverse impact of the implementation of the Dodd-Frank Act. In
addition, the FRB and other U.S. bank regulators have adopted rules to implement the Basel III global regulatory
framework for U.S. banks and bank holding companies which require higher quality of capital, as well as
significantly revise the calculations for risk-weighted assets. The FRB has also adopted rules to implement
various enhanced prudential standards required by the Dodd-Frank Act for larger U.S. bank holding companies,
such as MUAH. These standards require the larger bank holding companies to meet enhanced capital, liquidity
and leverage standards. Further, the FRB has adopted regulations applicable to foreign banking organizations
operating in the United States, which require MUFG’s and BTMU’s U.S. operations to be restructured and,subject to certain exceptions, conducted under a single U.S. IHC, with its own capital and liquidity requirements.
Actions management may take in response to these regulatory changes may involve the issuance of additional
capital or other measures. For more information, see “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business
Overview—Supervision and Regulation—United States.”

MUB, which is the principal subsidiary of MUAH, and reportedly other financial institutions have been thetargets of various denial-of-service or other cyber-attacks as part of what appears to be a coordinated effort todisrupt the operations of financial institutions and potentially test their cybersecurity in advance of future andmore advanced cyber-attacks. These denial-of-service attacks may require substantial resources to defend against
and affect customer satisfaction and behavior. Moreover, MUB’s information security measures may not be
sufficient to defend against cyber-attacks and other information security breaches, in which case theconsequences could be significant in terms of financial, reputational and other losses. In addition, there havebeen increasing efforts to breach data security at financial institutions as well as other types of companies, suchas large retailers, or with respect to financial transactions, including through the use of social engineering
schemes such as “phishing.” Even if cyber-attacks and similar tactics are not directed specifically at MUB, suchattacks on other large institutions could disrupt the overall functioning of the U.S. or global financial system andundermine consumer confidence in banks generally to the detriment of other financial institutions, including
MUB.
Any adverse changes in the business of Bank of Ayudhya, an indirect subsidiary in Thailand, could
significantly affect our results of operations.
Any adverse changes in the business or management of Bank of Ayudhya Public Company Limited, orKrungsri, a major subsidiary in Thailand in which we hold a 76.88% ownership interest as of March 31, 2017,
may negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations. Factors that may negatively affectKrungsri’s financial condition and results of operations include:‰

adverse economic conditions, substantial competition in the banking industry, volatile political andsocial conditions, natural disasters including floods, terrorism and armed conflicts, restrictions underapplicable financial systems and regulations, or significant fluctuations in interest rates, foreign
currency exchange rates, stock prices or commodity prices, in Southeast Asia, particularly in Thailand;‰

the business performance of companies making investments in and entering into markets in theSoutheast Asian region, as well as the condition of economies, financial systems, laws and financial
markets in the countries where such companies primarily operate;‰

losses from legal proceedings involving Krungsri;‰

credit rating downgrades and declines in stock prices of Krungsri’s borrowers, and bankruptcies ofKrungsri’s borrowers resulting from such factors;‰

defaults on Krungsri’s loans to individuals;‰

adverse changes in the cooperative relationship between us and the other major shareholder of Krungsri;and‰costs incurred due to weaknesses in the internal controls and regulatory compliance systems of Krungsri
or any of its subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2017, the balance of goodwill associated with the acquisition of Krungsri, including
Krungsri’s acquisition of Hattha Kaksekar Limited, a microfinance institution in Cambodia, in September 2016,was ¥56.9 billion. If the business of Krungsri deteriorates, we may be required to record impairment losses,
which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. See “—Risks
Related to Our Business—If the goodwill recorded in connection with our acquisitions becomes impaired, we
may be required to record impairment losses, which may adversely affect our financial results.”
Our strategy to expand the range of our financial products and services and the geographic scope of ourbusiness globally may fail if we are unable to anticipate or manage new or expanded risks that entail such
expansion.
We continue to seek opportunities to expand the range of our products and services beyond our traditionalbanking, trust, and securities businesses, through development and introduction of new products and services or15

through acquisitions of or investments in financial institutions with products and services that complement ourbusiness. For example, we are currently seeking to expand our corporate lending business outside of Japan. In
addition, the sophistication of financial products and services and management systems has been growing
significantly in recent years. As a result, we are exposed to new and increasingly complex risks, while market
and regulatory expectations that we manage these risks properly continue to rise. Some of the activities that our
subsidiaries are expected to engage in, such as derivatives and foreign currency trading, present substantial risks.
In some cases, we have only limited experience with the risks related to the expanded range of these products andservices. In addition, we may not be able to successfully develop or operate the necessary information technology
systems. As a result, we may not be able to foresee the risks relating to new products and services.
As we expand the geographic scope of our business, we will also be exposed to risks that are unique toparticular jurisdictions or markets. For example, in an effort to further develop our operations in Asia, BTMU
purchased 72.01% of the outstanding shares of Krungsri in December 2013 and acquired additional shares inJanuary 2015, increasing BTMU’s ownership interest to 76.88%.BTMU also holds an approximately 20% equity
interest in Vietnam Joint Stock Commercial Bank of Industry and Trade since December 2012 and a 20.0%
equity interest in Security Bank Corporation in the Philippines since April 2016. As we seek to enter newmarkets or jurisdictions, we often seek to collaborate with a local business partner by becoming a shareholder aswell as providing management expertise for the local market. In such circumstances, the local business partner
may have business interests that are inconsistent with our interests and, as a result, we may be unable to achieve
the goals initially set out in our strategy for that market. In addition, we may be unable to staff our newly
expanded operations with qualified individuals familiar with local legal and regulatory requirements and businesspractices, exposing us to legal, regulatory, operational and other risks.
Our risk management systems may prove to be inadequate and may not work in all cases or to the degree
required locally and globally for all of our subsidiaries, offices and branches. The increasing market, credit,
compliance and regulatory risks in relation to the expanding scope of our products, services and trading activities
or expanding our business beyond our traditional markets, could result in us incurring substantial losses. In
addition, our efforts to offer new products and services or penetrate new markets may not succeed if product ormarket opportunities develop more slowly than expected, if our new products and services are not well acceptedamong customers, or if the profitability of opportunities is undermined by competitive pressures or regulatory
limitations. For more information on our recent acquisition and investment transactions, see “Item 5. Operating
and Financial Review and Prospects—Recent Developments.”
Unanticipated economic changes in, and measures taken in response to such changes by, emerging
market countries could result in additional losses.
We are increasingly active, through a network of branches and subsidiaries, in emerging market countries,
particularly countries in Asia, Latin America, Central and Eastern Europe, and the Middle East. For example,
based primarily on the domicile of the obligors, our assets in Europe, Asia and Oceania excluding Japan, andother areas excluding Japan and the United States, were ¥23.82 trillion, ¥25.26 trillion and ¥10.75 trillion,
representing 8.0%, 8.5% and 3.6% of our total assets as of March 31, 2017, respectively. The economies of
emerging market countries can be volatile and susceptible to adverse changes and trends in the global financial
markets. For example, a decline in the value of local currencies of these countries could negatively affect thecreditworthiness of some of our borrowers in these countries. The loans we have made to borrowers and banks inthese countries are often denominated in U.S. dollars, euro or other foreign currencies. These borrowers often do
not hedge the loans to protect against fluctuations in the values of local currencies. A devaluation of the local
currency would make it more difficult for a borrower earning income in that currency to pay its debts to us andother foreign lenders. In addition, some countries in which we operate may attempt to support the value of theircurrencies by raising domestic interest rates. If this happens, the borrowers in these countries would have todevote more of their resources to repaying their domestic obligations, which may adversely affect their ability to
repay their debts to us and other foreign lenders. The limited credit availability resulting from these conditions
may adversely affect economic conditions in some countries. This could cause a further deterioration of thecredit quality of borrowers and banks in those countries and cause us to incur further losses. In addition, should
16there be excessively rapid economic growth and increasing inflationary pressure in some of the emerging market
countries, such developments could adversely affect the wider regional and global economies. Some emerging
market countries may also change their monetary or other economic policies in response to economic andpolitical instabilities or pressures, which are difficult to predict. See “Item 5.B. Operating and Financial Review
and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Financial Condition.”
If our strategic alliance with Morgan Stanley fails, we could suffer financial or reputational loss.
We have a global strategic alliance with Morgan Stanley, under which we operate two joint venture
securities companies in Japan, engage in joint corporate finance operations in the United States and pursue othercooperative opportunities. We hold approximately 23.3% of the voting rights in Morgan Stanley as of March 31,2017 and continue to hold approximately $521.4 million of perpetual non-cumulative non-convertible preferredstock with a 10% dividend. In addition, we currently have two representatives on Morgan Stanley’s board of
directors.
We initially entered into this strategic alliance in October 2008 with a view towards long-term cooperation
with Morgan Stanley, and currently plan to deepen the strategic alliance. However, due to any unexpectedchanges in social, economic or financial conditions, changes in the regulatory environment, or any failure tointegrate or share staff, products or services, or to operate, manage or implement the business strategy of the
securities joint venture companies or other cooperative opportunities as planned, we may be unable to achieve
the expected synergies from this alliance.
If our strategic alliance with Morgan Stanley is terminated, it could have a material negative impact on ourbusiness strategy, financial condition, and results of operations. For example, because we conduct our securities
operations in Japan through the joint venture companies we have with Morgan Stanley, such termination may
result in our inability to attain the planned growth in this line of business.
In addition, with our current investment in Morgan Stanley, we have neither a controlling interest in, nor
control over the business operations of Morgan Stanley. If Morgan Stanley makes any business decisions that areinconsistent with our interests, we may be unable to achieve the goals initially set out for the strategic alliance.
Furthermore, although we do not control Morgan Stanley, given the magnitude of our investment, if Morgan
Stanley encounters financial or other business difficulties due to adverse changes in the economy, regulatoryenvironment or other factors, we may suffer a financial loss on our investment or damage to our reputation. For
example, we recorded an impairment loss of ¥579.5 billion on our investment in Morgan Stanley’s common
stock for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012.
We apply equity method accounting to our investment in Morgan Stanley in our consolidated financial
statements. As a result, Morgan Stanley’s performance affects our results of operations. In addition fluctuations
in Morgan Stanley’s stock price or in our equity ownership interest in Morgan Stanley may cause us to recognize
additional losses on our investment in Morgan Stanley.
We may incur further losses as a result of financial difficulties relating to other financial institutions,both directly and through the effect they may have on the overall banking environment and on theirborrowers.
Declining asset quality, capital adequacy and other financial problems of domestic and foreign financial
institutions, including banks, non-bank lending and credit institutions, securities companies and insurancecompanies, may lead to severe liquidity and solvency problems, which have in the past resulted in theliquidation, government control or restructuring of affected institutions. In addition, allegations or governmental
prosecution of improper trading activities or inappropriate business conduct of a specific financial institution
could also negatively affect the public perception of other global financial institutions individually and the global
financial industry as a whole. These developments may adversely affect our financial results.
17

Financial difficulties relating to financial institutions could adversely affect us because we have extendedloans, some of which may need to be classified as impaired loans, to banks, securities companies, insurancecompanies and other financial institutions that are not our consolidated subsidiaries. Our loans to banks and otherfinancial institutions have been more than 5% of our total loans as of each year-end in the three fiscal years
ended March 31, 2017, with the percentage increasing from 15.3% to 16.1% between March 31, 2016 andMarch 31, 2017. We may also be adversely affected because we are a shareholder of some other banks andfinancial institutions that are not our consolidated subsidiaries, including our shareholdings in Japanese regionalbanks and our 23.3% voting interest in Morgan Stanley as of March 31, 2017. If some of the financial institutions
to which we have exposure experience financial difficulties, we may need to provide financial support to themeven when such support might not be warranted from the perspective of our narrow economic interests becausesuch institutions may be systematically important to the Japanese or global financial system.
We may also be adversely affected because we enter into transactions, such as derivative transactions, in theordinary course of business, with other banks and financial institutions as counterparties. For example, we enter
into credit derivatives with banks, broker-dealers, insurance companies and other financial institutions for
managing credit risk exposures, for facilitating client transactions, and for proprietary trading purposes. The
notional amount of the protection we sold through these instruments was ¥2.91 trillion as of March 31, 2017.
In addition, financial difficulties relating to financial institutions could indirectly have an adverse effect on
us because:‰

we may be requested to participate in providing assistance to support distressed financial institutions
that are not our consolidated subsidiaries;‰

the government may elect to provide regulatory, tax, funding or other benefits to those financial
institutions to strengthen their capital, facilitate their sale or otherwise, which in turn may increase theircompetitiveness against us;‰

deposit insurance premiums could rise if deposit insurance funds prove to be inadequate;‰

bankruptcies or government support or control of financial institutions could generally undermine
confidence in financial institutions or adversely affect the overall banking environment;‰

failures or financial difficulties experienced by other financial institutions could result in additional
regulations or requirements that increase the cost of business for us; and‰negative media coverage of the financial industry, regardless of its accuracy and applicability to us,
could affect customer or investor sentiment, harm our reputation and have a materially adverse effect on
our business or the price of our securities.

Because of our loans to consumers and our shareholdings in companies engaged in consumer lending,changes in the business or regulatory environment for consumer finance companies in Japan may further
adversely affect our financial results.
We have a large loan portfolio in the consumer lending industry as well as large shareholdings in
subsidiaries and equity method investees in the consumer finance industry. Our domestic loans to consumers
amount to approximately one-seventh of our total outstanding loans. Of this amount, the consumer loans
provided by Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS, Co., Ltd., which is our primary consumer financing subsidiary, were¥593.2 billion as of March 31, 2017, compared to ¥593.9 billion as of March 31, 2016.
Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS’s consumer loan portfolio has been adversely affected by a series of regulatory
reforms recently implemented in Japan, which has affected the consumer lending industry in recent years. In
December 2006, the Japanese Diet passed legislation to reform the regulations relating to the consumer lending
business, including amendments to the Act Regulating the Receipt of Contributions, the Receipt of Deposits, andInterest Rates, which, effective June 18, 2010, reduced the maximum permissible interest rate from 29.2% per18

annum to 20% per annum. The regulatory reforms also included amendments to the Money Lending Business
Act, which, effective June 18, 2010, abolished the so-called “gray-zone interest.” Gray-zone interest refers tointerest rates exceeding the limits stipulated by the Interest Rate Restriction Act (between 15% per annum to
20% per annum depending on the amount of principal). Prior to June 18, 2010, gray-zone interest was permitted
under certain conditions set forth in the Money Lending Business Act. As a result of the regulatory reforms, allinterest rates are now subject to the lower limits imposed by the Interest Rate Restriction Act, compelling lending
institutions, including our consumer finance subsidiaries and equity method investees, to lower the interest rates
they charge borrowers. The regulations that became effective on June 18, 2010 also have had a further negative
impact on the business of consumer finance companies as one of the new regulations requires, among otherthings, consumer finance companies to limit their lending to a single customer to a maximum of one third of thecustomer’s annual income regardless of the customer’s repayment capability, significantly affecting consumer
financing companies.
The regulations and regulatory reforms affecting the consumer finance business were one of the main
factors that contributed to the decrease in interest income attributable to our consumer finance business. Ourinterest income attributable to the consumer finance business was approximately ¥190 billion and ¥160 billion
for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively. However, following the regulatory changes inJune 2010, our interest income attributable to the consumer finance business substantially decreased. For the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, our interest income attributable to the consumer finance business wasapproximately ¥90 billion.
In addition, as a result of decisions by the Supreme Court of Japan prior to June 18, 2010 imposing stringent
requirements under the Money Lending Business Act for charging gray-zone interest rates, consumer financecompanies have experienced a significant increase in borrowers’ claims for reimbursement of previously
collected interest payments in excess of the limits stipulated by the Interest Rate Restriction Act.
Following the various legal developments in June 2010 and other industry developments, Mitsubishi UFJ
NICOS revised its estimate of allowance for repayment of excess interest by updating management’s future forecast
to reflect new reimbursement claims information and other data. As of March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, we had¥36.3 billion, ¥47.2 billion and ¥39.4 billion of allowance for repayment of excess interest, respectively. For thesame periods, one of our equity method investees engaged in consumer lending, ACOM CO., LTD., had a negative
impact of ¥19.7 billion, ¥22.4 billion and ¥56.9 billion, respectively, on net equity in losses of equity method
investees in our consolidated statements of income. We intend to carefully monitor future developments and trends.
These developments have adversely affected, and these and any future developments may further adversely
affect, the operations and financial condition of our subsidiaries, equity method investees and borrowers which
are engaged in consumer lending, which in turn may affect the value of our related shareholdings and loan
portfolio.
Our business may be adversely affected by competitive pressures, which have partly increased due toregulatory changes and recent market changes in the financial industry domestically and globally.
In recent years, the Japanese financial system has been undergoing significant changes and regulatory barriers
to competition have been reduced. Recent advances in information and communication technology have also
allowed non-financial institutions to enter the financial services industry with alternative services, and such newentrants could become substantial competition to us. In addition, mergers and restructuring in the financial sector inJapan may adversely affect our competitive position. Partly to deal with these developments, as part of our strategy
to realign the functions of our subsidiaries, we plan to transfer MUTB’s corporate and other loan-related business to
BTMU in or around April 2018. Our competitive position in the corporate loan-related market may weaken if
MUTB’s corporate customers move their accounts to a competitor or otherwise reduce their loan balances with
MUTB or BTMU to keep their funding sources diversified in anticipation, or as a result, of the planned transaction
between MUTB and BTMU. Our competitive position in the corporate loan-related market may also weaken if weare unable to complete the transaction as planned or to realize the expected benefits of the transaction.
19

In the overseas markets, advances in information and communications technology have allowed
non-financial institutions to enter the financial services industry, and such new entrants could become substantial
competition to us. Competition may further increase as U.S. and European financial institutions have recently
been regaining and enhancing their competitive strength. We also face intensifying competition in areas of ourstrategic expansion. For example, the Japanese mega banks, including us, and other major international banks
have been expanding their operations in the Asian market, where leading local banks have recently been growing
and increasing their presence. In addition, there has been significant consolidation and convergence among
financial institutions domestically and globally, and this trend may continue in the future and further increase
competition in the market. A number of large commercial banks and other broad-based financial services firms
have merged or formed strategic alliances with, or have acquired, other financial institutions both in Japan andoverseas. As a result of the strategic alliance and the joint venture companies that we formed with Morgan
Stanley, we may be perceived as a competitor by some of the financial institutions with which we had a morecooperative relationship in the past. The ongoing global financial regulatory reforms may also lead to changes in
the competitive environment for financial institutions. If we are unable to compete effectively in this morecompetitive and deregulated business environment, our business, results of operations and financial condition
will be adversely affected. For a more detailed discussion of our competition in Japan, see “Item 4.B.
Information on the Company—Business Overview—Competition.”
Future changes in accounting standards or methods could have a negative impact on our business andresults of operations.
Future developments or changes in accounting standards are unpredictable and beyond our control. For
example, in response to the recent instabilities in global financial markets, several international organizations
which set accounting standards have released proposals to revise standards on accounting for financial
instruments. Accounting standards applicable to financial instruments remain subject to debate and revision byinternational organizations which set accounting standards. If the current accounting standards change in the
future, the reported values of some of our financial instruments may need to be modified, and such modification
could have a significant impact on our financial results or financial condition. In addition, the bodies thatinterpret the accounting standards may change their interpretations, or we may elect to modify our accounting
methods to improve our financial reporting, and such change or modification may also have a significant impact
on our financial results or financial condition. For more information, see “Item 5. Operating and Financial
Review and Prospects—Critical Accounting Estimates.”
We could also be required to incur significant expenses to comply with new accounting standards andregulations. For example, if we adopt a new accounting system in the future, we may be required to incur
significant additional costs for establishing and implementing effective internal controls, which may materiallyand adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Transactions with counterparties in countries designated by the U.S. Department of State as state
sponsors of terrorism may lead some potential customers and investors in the United States and othercountries to avoid doing business with us or investing in our shares.
We, through our subsidiaries, engage in business activities with entities in or affiliated with Iran, includingtransactions with counterparties owned or controlled by the Iranian government, and our commercial banking
subsidiary has a representative office in Iran. The U.S. Department of State has designated Iran and othercountries as “state sponsors of terrorism,” and U.S. law generally prohibits U.S. persons from doing businesswith such countries. We currently have business activities with entities in or affiliated with such countries inaccordance with our policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with regulations applicable in thejurisdictions in which we operate.
We have loan transactions with counterparties in or affiliated with Iran, the outstanding balance of which
was approximately $0.5 million, representing less than 0.0001% of our total assets, as of March 31, 2017. We do20

not have any loans outstanding to the financial institutions specifically listed by the U.S. government. In addition
to such loan transactions, our other transactions with counterparties in or affiliated with countries designated asstate sponsors of terrorism consist of receiving deposits or holding assets on behalf of individuals residing inJapan who are citizens of countries designated as state sponsors of terrorism, processing payments to or fromentities in or affiliated with these countries on behalf of our customers, and issuing letters of credit andguarantees in connection with transactions with entities in or affiliated with such countries by our customers.
These transactions do not have a material impact on our business or financial condition. For a further discussionof transactions required to be disclosed under the U.S. Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of2012, see “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—
United States—Disclosure pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.”
We are aware of initiatives by U.S. governmental entities and non-government entities, including
institutional investors such as pension funds, to adopt or consider adopting laws, regulations or policies
prohibiting transactions with or investment in, or requiring divestment from, entities doing business with Iran andother countries identified as state sponsors of terrorism. It is possible that such initiatives may result in our being
unable to gain or retain entities subject to such prohibitions as customers, counter-parties or investors in ourshares. In addition, depending on socio-political developments, our reputation may suffer due to our transactions
with counterparties in or affiliated with these countries. The above circumstances could have an adverse effect on
our business and financial condition.
Global financial institutions, including us, have become subject to an increasingly complex set of sanctions
laws and regulations in recent years, and this regulatory environment is expected to continue. Moreover, themeasures proposed or adopted vary across the major jurisdictions, increasing the cost and resources necessary todesign and implement an appropriate global compliance program. The U.S. federal government and some state
governments in the United States have enacted legislation designed to limit economic and financial transactions
with Iran by limiting the ability of financial institutions that may have engaged in any one of a broad range ofactivities related to Iran to conduct various transactions in the relevant jurisdictions. The Japanese government
has also implemented a series of measures under the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act, such as freezing
the assets of persons involved in Iran’s sensitive nuclear activities and development of nuclear weapon delivery
systems, and our most recently modified policies and procedures take into account the current Japanese
regulatory requirements. We continue to work to improve our policies and procedures to comply with such
legislative and regulatory requirements. There remains a risk of potential regulatory action against us, however, if
regulators perceive the modified policies and procedures not to be in compliance with applicable legislation andregulations.
We may not be able to maintain our capital ratios above minimum required levels, which could result in thesuspension of some or all of our operations.
We, as a holding company, and our Japanese banking subsidiaries are required to maintain risk-weighted
capital ratios above the levels specified in the capital adequacy guidelines of the FSA which have been revised asof March 31, 2013, as described below. As of March 31, 2017, our total risk-adjusted capital ratio was 15.85%
compared to the minimum risk-adjusted capital ratio required of 10.00%, our Tier 1 capital ratio was 13.36%
compared to the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio required of 8.00%, and our Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio
was 11.76% compared to the minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio required of 6.50%, each including acapital conservation buffer of 1.25% and a G-SIB surcharge of 0.75%. Our capital ratios are calculated inaccordance with Japanese banking regulations based on information derived from our financial statements
prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP. In addition, we and some of our subsidiaries are also subject to thecapital adequacy rules of various foreign countries, including the United States. We or our banking subsidiaries
may be unable to continue to satisfy the capital adequacy requirements because of:‰increases in our and our banking subsidiaries’ credit risk assets and expected losses because offluctuations in our or our banking subsidiaries’ portfolios due to deterioration in the creditworthiness ofborrowers and the issuers of equity and debt securities;21

‰difficulty in refinancing or issuing instruments upon redemption or at maturity of such instruments toraise capital under terms and conditions similar to prior financings or issuances;‰declines in the value of our or our banking subsidiaries’ securities portfolios;‰

adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates;‰

adverse revisions to the capital ratio requirements;‰

reductions in the value of our or our banking subsidiaries’ deferred tax assets; and‰other adverse developments.

The Group of Central Bank Governors and Heads of Supervision has made a series of announcements
regarding the new global regulatory framework, which has been referred to as “Basel III,” to strengthen theregulation, supervision and risk management of the banking sector. Various Basel III measures are being phasedin from the calendar year 2013, including those designed to raise the level of minimum capital requirements andto establish an internationally harmonized leverage ratio and a global minimum liquidity standard. In addition,
the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has proposed additional loss absorbency requirements to
supplement the Common Equity Tier 1 capital requirement ranging from 1% to 3.5% for G-SIBs, depending on
the bank’s systemic importance. The Financial Stability Board identified us as a G-SIB in its most recent annual
report published in November 2016, and indicated that, as a G-SIB, we would be required to hold an additional
1.5% of Common Equity Tier 1 capital. The group of banks identified as G-SIBs is expected to be updated
annually. The stricter capital requirements are being implemented in phases between January 1, 2016 andDecember 31, 2018 and will become fully effective on January 1, 2019. Based on the Basel III framework, theJapanese capital ratio framework has been revised to implement the more stringent requirements, which are being
implemented in phases beginning on March 31, 2013. Likewise, local banking regulators outside of Japan, suchas those in the United States, have begun, or are expected, to revise the capital and liquidity requirements
imposed on our subsidiaries and operations in those countries to implement the more stringent requirements ofBasel III as adopted in those countries.
In November 2015, the Financial Stability Board issued the final Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity, or TLAC,
standard for G-SIBs, including us. The TLAC standard defines a minimum requirement for the instruments andliabilities that should be readily available to absorb losses in resolution. Under the standard, each G-SIB isrequired to hold TLAC debt in an amount not less than 16% of its risk-weighted assets and 6% of the applicableBasel III leverage ratio denominator by January 1, 2019, and not less than 18% of its risk-weighted assets and6.75% of the applicable Basel III leverage ratio denominator by January 1, 2022. The Financial Stability Board’s
standard is subject to regulatory implementation in each jurisdiction, including Japan, and specific requirements
as implemented in Japan may not be the same as the Financial Stability Board’s TLAC standard. Although the
FSA has not yet finalized TLAC requirements for Japanese G-SIBs, we have commenced issuing senior debt
securities that are intended to qualify as TLAC debt. However, there is no assurance that our senior debt
securities will qualify as such, and we may have difficulty meeting the TLAC requirements.
Under the capital adequacy guidelines of the FSA, which have been revised in connection with the adoptionof Basel III, there is a transitional measure relating to the inclusion as a capital item of capital raising instruments
issued in or prior to March 2013, and such instruments can be included as a capital item when calculating capitalratios to the extent permitted by the transitional measure. Such capital raising instruments may require
refinancing upon the expiration of the transition period during which such instruments can be included as acapital item in the calculation of capital ratios. However, in order for newly issued capital raising instruments,
other than common stock, to be included as a capital item in the calculation of capital ratios under the capital
adequacy guidelines, such instruments must have a clause in their terms and conditions that requires them to be
written off or converted into common stock upon the occurrence of certain events, including when the issuingfinancial institution is deemed non-viable or when the issuing financial institution’s capital ratios decline below
prescribed levels. As a result, under certain market conditions, we may be unable to refinance or issue capital22

raising instruments under terms and conditions similar to those of capital raising instruments issued in or prior to
March 2013. If such circumstances arise, our and our banking subsidiaries’ capital could be reduced, and our andour bank subsidiaries’ capital ratios could decrease.
In addition, under the FSA’s capital adequacy guidelines, deferred tax assets can be included as a capital
item when calculating capital ratios up to a prescribed amount. However, this upper limit is expected to be
reduced in phases. If, and to the extent, the amount of deferred tax assets exceeds this limit and cannot be
included in Common Equity Tier 1 capital, our and our banking subsidiaries’ capital ratios could decrease.
If our capital ratios fall below required levels, the FSA could require us to take a variety of corrective
actions, including withdrawal from all international operations or suspension of all or part of our business
operations. In addition, if the capital ratios of our subsidiaries subject to capital adequacy rules of foreign
jurisdictions fall below the required levels, the local regulators could also take action against them that may result
in reputational damage or financial losses to us. Since maintaining our capital ratios at acceptable levels is crucial
to our business, our management devotes a significant amount of attention and resources to capital ratio related
issues and may also significantly alter our business strategy or operations if our capital ratios decline to
unacceptable levels. For a discussion of our capital ratios and the related regulatory guidelines, see “Item 4.B.
Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation” and “Item 5.B. Operating and
Financial Review and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Capital Adequacy.”
If the goodwill recorded in connection with our acquisitions becomes impaired, we may be required torecord impairment losses, which may adversely affect our financial results.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we account for our business combinations using the acquisition method of
accounting. We recorded the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the assets and liabilities of theacquired companies as goodwill. U.S. GAAP requires us to test goodwill for impairment at least annually, or
more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. As of March 31,
2017, the total balance of goodwill was ¥450.1 billion.
For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2016 and 2017, we recognized ¥4.3 billion and ¥6.6 billion,
respectively, in impairment of goodwill relating to a reporting unit within the Trust Assets Business Groupsegment as we readjusted our future cash flow projection of the reporting unit in this segment, considering therelevant subsidiaries’ recent business performance. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, we also recognized¥151.7 billion in impairment of goodwill relating to the reporting unit other than MUAH and Krungsri within the
Global Business Group segment as our stock price decreased from ¥743.7 on March 31, 2015 to ¥521.5 on
March 31, 2016. Our stock price was adversely impacted by the Bank of Japan’s announcement of
implementation in January 2016 of the negative interest rate on certain current account amounts that financial
institutions hold at the Bank of Japan, and the appreciation of the Japanese yen against other major currencies. In
addition, we recognized ¥177.8 billion in impairment of goodwill relating to the Krungsri reporting unit within
the Global Business Group segment as Krungsri’s stock price declined from THB44.75 on December 31, 2014 to
THB29.75 on December 31, 2015. Krungsri’s stock price was adversely impacted by the slowing economic
growth in Thailand. Accordingly, the fair values of these reporting units were considered to have fallen below
their carrying amounts. As a result, the carrying amounts of the reporting units’ goodwill exceeded the impliedfair values of the reporting units’ goodwill, and the impairment losses were recognized on the related goodwill.
See “Item 5.B. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Operating Results—Impairment of goodwill.”
We may be required to record additional impairment losses relating to goodwill in future periods if the fairvalue of any of our reporting units declines below the fair value of related assets net of liabilities. Any additional
impairment losses will negatively affect our financial results, and the price of our securities could be adversely
affected. For a detailed discussion of our periodic testing of goodwill for impairment and the goodwill recorded,
see “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Critical Accounting Estimates—Accounting for
Goodwill and Intangible Assets.”23

A downgrade of our credit ratings could adversely affect our ability to access and maintain liquidity.
Any downgrade of the credit ratings assigned to us or our debt securities by Moody’s, Fitch, Standard &Poor’s or any other credit rating agency could increase the cost, or decrease the availability, of our funding,particularly in U.S. dollars and other foreign currencies, adversely affect our liquidity position or net interest
margin, trigger additional collateral or funding obligations, and result in losses of depositors, investors andcounterparties willing or permitted to transact with us, thereby reducing our ability to generate income andweakening our financial position.
Rating agencies regularly evaluate us and our major subsidiaries as well as our and their respective debt
securities. Their ratings are based on a number of factors, including their assessment of the relative financial
strength of MUFG or of the relevant subsidiary, as well as conditions generally affecting the financial services
industry in Japan or on a global basis, some of which are not entirely within our control. As a result of changes intheir evaluation of these factors or in their rating methodologies, rating agencies may downgrade our, or our
subsidiaries’, ratings.
In December 2014, Moody’s downgraded the long-term credit ratings of BTMU and MUTB by one-notchfrom Aa3 to A1, the long-term credit rating of MUSHD by one-notch from A2 to A3, and the short-term credit
rating of MUSHD by one-notch from P-1 to P-2. These downgrades followed the downgrade of the rating
assigned to the Government of Japan from Aa3 to A1. In November 2015, Standard and Poor’s changed thecredit rating outlook for MUFG, BTMU and MUTB from stable to negative, following S&P’s revision of its
view on the economic risk trend in Japan’s banking sector from stable to negative. In addition, in June 2016,
Fitch changed the credit rating outlook of MUFG, BTMU and MUTB from stable to negative, following Fitch’schange in the credit rating outlook for the Government of Japan from stable to negative.
Assuming all of the relevant credit rating agencies downgraded the credit ratings of MUFG, BTMU, MUTB
and MUSHD by one-notch on March 31, 2017, we estimate that MUFG and its three main subsidiaries would
have been required to provide additional collateral under their derivative contracts as of the same date of
approximately ¥5.6 billion. Assuming a two-notch downgrade by all of the relevant credit rating agencies
occurred on the same date, we estimate that the additional collateral requirements for MUFG, BTMU, MUTB
and MUSHD under their derivative contracts as of the same date would have been approximately ¥10.0 billion.
For additional information on the impact of recent downgrades, see “Item 5.B. Operating and Financial Review
and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Financial Condition—Sources of Funding and Liquidity.”
Our business operations are exposed to risks of natural disasters, terrorism and other disruptions causedby external events.
As a major financial institution incorporated in Japan and operating in major international financial markets,
our business operations, automatic teller machines, or ATMs, and other information technology systems,
personnel, and facilities and other physical assets are subject to the risks of earthquakes, typhoons, floods andother natural disasters, terrorism, and other political and social conflicts, abduction, health epidemics, and otherdisruptions caused by external events, which are beyond our control. As a consequence of such external events,
we may be required to incur significant costs and expenses for remedial measures or compensation to customers
or transaction counterparties for resulting losses. We may suffer loss of facility, human and other resources. We
may also suffer loss of business. In addition, such external events may have various other significant adverse
effects, including deterioration in economic conditions, declines in the business performance of our borrowers
and decreases in stock prices, which may result in higher credit costs or impairment or valuation losses on thefinancial instruments we hold. These effects could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results
and financial condition.
As with other Japanese companies, we are exposed to heightened risks of large-scale natural disasters,
particularly earthquakes. In particular, a large-scale earthquake occurring in the Tokyo metropolitan area could24result in market disruptions or significant damage to, or losses of, tangible or human assets relating to ourbusiness and counterparties because many of our important business functions and many of the major Japanesecompanies and financial markets are located in the area. In addition, such an earthquake could cause a longerterm economic slowdown and a downgrade of Japan’s sovereign credit rating due to increases in government
spending for disaster recovery measures.
Our risk management policies and procedures may be insufficient to address the consequences of theseexternal events, resulting in our inability to continue to operate a part or the whole of our business. In addition,
our redundancy and backup measures may not be sufficient to avoid a material disruption in our operations, andour contingency and business continuity plans may not address all eventualities that may occur in the event of amaterial disruption caused by a large-scale natural disaster such as the March 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake,
which led to tsunamis, soil liquefaction and fires, as well as electricity power supply shortages and electricity
power conservation measures resulting from the suspension of the operations of the nuclear power plants.
Failure to safeguard personal and other confidential information may result in liability, reputational
damage or financial losses.
As our operations expand in volume, complexity and geographic scope, we are exposed to increased risk ofconfidential information in our possession being lost, leaked, altered or falsified as a result of human or systemerror, misconduct, unlawful behavior or scheme, unauthorized access or natural or human-caused disasters. Our
information systems and information management policies and procedures may not be sufficient to safeguard
confidential information against such risks.
As a financial institution in possession of customer information, we are required to treat personal and otherconfidential information as required by the Act on the Protection of Personal Information and the Act on the Useof Personal Identification Numbers in the Administration of Government Affairs, as well as the Banking Law and
the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan. In the event that personal information in our possession
about our customers or employees is leaked or improperly accessed and subsequently misused, we may besubject to liability and regulatory action. We may have to provide compensation for economic loss and emotional
distress arising out of a failure to protect such information. In addition, such incidents could create a negative
public perception of our operations, systems or brand, which may in turn decrease customer and market
confidence and materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
Moreover, any loss, leakage, alteration or falsification of confidential information, or any malfunction or
failure of our information systems, may result in significant disruptions to our business operations or plans or
may require us to incur significant financial, human and other resources to implement corrective measures orenhance our information systems and information management policies and procedures.
Our operations are highly dependent on our information, communications and transaction management
systems and are subject to an increasing risk of cyber-attacks and other information security threats and tochanges in the business and regulatory environment.
Our information, communications and transaction management systems, including, our own proprietarysystems as well as those third-party systems which are provided for our use or to which our systems areconnected, constitute a core infrastructure for our operations. Given our global operations with an extensive
network of branches and offices, the proper functioning of our information, communications and transaction
management systems is critical to our ability to efficiently and accurately process a large volume of transactions,ensure adequate internal controls, appropriately manage various risks, and otherwise service our clients andcustomers.
Cyber-attacks and other forms of unauthorized access and computer viruses are becoming increasingly moresophisticated and more difficult to predict, detect and prevent. For instance, bank internal financial transaction
25systems or automatic teller machines may become the target of cyber-attacks for monetary gain, and bankinternal information systems may become the target of confidential information theft. In addition, banks’
websites or customer internet banking systems may become the target of cyber-attacks for political and otherpurposes. These cyber threats, as well as our failure to appropriately and timely anticipate and deal with changes
associated with technological advances and new systems and tools introduced in response to industry, regulatory
and other developments, could cause disruptions to, and malfunctions of, such systems and result in unintended
releases of confidential and proprietary information stored in or transmitted through the systems, interruptions in
the operations of our clients, customers and counterparties, and deterioration in our ability to service our clientsand customers. In addition, our banking and other transaction management systems may not meet all applicablebusiness and regulatory requirements in an environment where such requirements are becoming increasingly
sophisticated and complicated. These consequences could result in financial losses, including costs and expenses
incurred in connection with countermeasures and improvements as well as compensation to affected parties, leadto regulatory actions, diminish our clients’ and customers’ satisfaction with and confidence in us, and harm our
reputation in the market, which could in turn adversely affect our business, financial condition and results ofoperations.
Risks Related to Owning Our Shares
It may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon us or our
directors or management members, or to enforce against us or those persons judgments obtained in
U.S. courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal or state securities laws.
We are a joint stock company incorporated under the laws of Japan. Almost all of our directors or
management members reside outside the United States. Many of our assets and the assets of these persons arelocated in Japan and elsewhere outside the United States. It may not be possible, therefore, for U.S. investors toeffect service of process within the United States upon us or these persons or to enforce, against us or these
persons, judgments obtained in the U.S. courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal orstate securities laws.
We believe there is doubt as to the enforceability in Japan, in original actions or in actions brought inJapanese courts to enforce judgments of U.S. courts, of claims predicated solely upon the U.S. federal or state
securities laws mainly because the Civil Execution Act of Japan requires Japanese courts to deny requests for theenforcement of judgments of foreign courts if foreign judgments fail to satisfy the requirements prescribed by the
Civil Execution Act, including:‰the jurisdiction of the foreign court be recognized under laws, regulations, treaties or conventions;‰

proper service of process be made on relevant defendants, or relevant defendants be given appropriate
protection if such service is not received;‰

the judgment and proceedings of the foreign court not be repugnant to public policy as applied in Japan;
and‰there exist reciprocity as to the recognition by a court of the relevant foreign jurisdiction of a final
judgment of a Japanese court.

Judgments obtained in the U.S. courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal orstate securities laws may not satisfy these requirements.

Risks Related to Owning Our American Depositary Shares
As a holder of American Depositary Shares, you have fewer rights than a shareholder of record in ourshareholder register since you must act through the depositary to exercise these rights.
The rights of our shareholders under Japanese law to take actions such as voting, receiving dividends anddistributions, bringing derivative actions, examining our accounting books and records and exercising appraisal
rights are available only to shareholders of record. Because the depositary, through its custodian, is the record
holder of the shares underlying the American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, only the depositary can exercise
shareholder rights relating to the deposited shares. ADS holders, in their capacity, will not be able to directly
bring a derivative action, examine our accounting books and records and exercise appraisal rights. We haveappointed The Bank of New York Mellon as depositary, and we have the authority to replace the depositary.
Pursuant to the deposit agreement among us, the depositary and a holder of ADSs, the depositary will makeefforts to exercise voting or any other rights associated with shares underlying ADSs in accordance with the
instructions given by ADS holders, and to pay to ADS holders dividends and distributions collected from us.
However, the depositary can exercise reasonable discretion in carrying out the instructions or making
distributions, and is not liable for failure to do so as long as it has acted in good faith. Therefore, ADS holders
may not be able to exercise voting or any other rights in the manner that they had intended, or may lose some or
all of the value of the dividends or the distributions. Moreover, the depositary agreement that governs theobligations of the depositary may be amended or terminated by us and the depositary without ADS holders’consent, notice, or any reason. As a result, ADS holders may be prevented from having the rights in connection
with the deposited shares exercised in the way ADS holders had wished or at all.
ADS holders are dependent on the depositary to receive our communications. We send to the depositary allof our communications to ADS holders, including annual reports, notices and voting materials, in Japanese.
ADS holders may not receive all of our communications with shareholders of record in our shareholder registerin the same manner or on an equal basis. In addition, ADS holders may not be able to exercise their rights as
ADS holders due to delays in the depositary transmitting our shareholder communications to ADS holders. For adetailed discussion of the rights of ADS holders and the terms of the deposit agreement, see“Item 10.B. Additional Information—Memorandum and Articles of Association—American Depositary Shares.”

Information on the Company.

History and Development of the Company

Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc.
MUFG is a bank holding company incorporated as a joint stock company (kabushiki kaisha) under theCompanies Act of Japan. We are the holding company for The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., or BTMU,
Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation, or MUTB, Mitsubishi UFJ Securities Holdings Co., Ltd., or
MUSHD, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities Co., Ltd., or MUMSS, Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS Co., Ltd.,and other companies engaged in a wide range of financial businesses.
On April 2, 2001, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, Ltd., Mitsubishi Trust and Banking Corporation, orMitsubishi Trust Bank, and Nippon Trust and Banking Co., Ltd. established Mitsubishi Tokyo Financial Group,
Inc., or MTFG, to be a holding company for the three entities. Before that, each of the banks had been a publicly
traded company. On April 2, 2001, through a stock-for-stock exchange, they became wholly-owned subsidiaries
of MTFG, and the former shareholders of the three banks became shareholders of MTFG. Nippon Trust andBanking was later merged into Mitsubishi Trust Bank.
On June 29, 2005, the merger agreement between MTFG and UFJ Holdings, Inc. was approved at thegeneral shareholders meetings of MTFG and UFJ Holdings. As the surviving entity, MTFG was renamed“Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc.” The merger of the two bank holding companies was completed on
October 1, 2005.
27

On September 30, 2007, MUSHD, which was then called “Mitsubishi UFJ Securities Co., Ltd.,” or MUS,
became our wholly-owned subsidiary through a share exchange transaction.
On October 13, 2008, we formed a global strategic alliance with Morgan Stanley and, as part of the alliance,
made an equity investment in Morgan Stanley in the form of convertible and non-convertible preferred stock, andsubsequently appointed a representative to Morgan Stanley’s board of directors.
On October 21, 2008, we completed a tender offer for outstanding shares of ACOM CO., LTD. common
stock, raising our ownership in ACOM to approximately 40%.
On November 4, 2008, BTMU completed the acquisition of all of the shares of common stock ofUnionBanCal Corporation, or UNBC, not previously owned by BTMU and, as a result, UNBC became a whollyowned indirect subsidiary of MUFG.
On May 1, 2010, we and Morgan Stanley integrated our securities and investment banking businesses inJapan into two joint venture securities companies, one of which is MUMSS. MUMSS was created by spinning
off the wholesale and retail securities businesses conducted in Japan from MUSHD and subsequently assuming
certain operations in Japan from a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley.
On June 30, 2011, we converted all of our Morgan Stanley’s convertible preferred stock into Morgan
Stanley’s common stock, resulting in our holding approximately 22.4% of the voting rights in Morgan Stanley.
Further, we appointed a second representative to Morgan Stanley’s board of directors on July 20, 2011.
Following the conversion on June 30, 2011, Morgan Stanley became our equity-method affiliate. As of
March 31, 2017, we held approximately 23.3% of the voting rights in Morgan Stanley and had two
representatives appointed to Morgan Stanley’s board of directors. We and Morgan Stanley continue to pursue avariety of business opportunities in Japan and abroad in accordance with the global strategic alliance.
On December 18, 2013, we acquired approximately 72.0% of the total outstanding shares of Krungsri
through BTMU. As a result of the transaction, Krungsri has become a consolidated subsidiary of BTMU.
On July 1, 2014, we integrated BTMU’s operations in the Americas region with UNBC’s operations, andchanged UNBC’s corporate name to “MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation,” or MUAH. On the same day,
Union Bank, N.A., which is MUAH’s principal subsidiary and our primary operating subsidiary in the UnitedStates, was also renamed “MUFG Union Bank, N.A.,” or MUB. MUAH currently oversees BTMU’s operationsin the Americas region as well as the operations of MUB.
On January 5, 2015, BTMU integrated its Bangkok branch with Krungsri through a contribution in kind of
the BTMU Bangkok branch business to Krungsri, and BTMU received newly issued shares of Krungsri common
stock. As a result of this transaction, BTMU’s ownership interest in Krungsri increased to 76.9%.
In May 2017, we announced plans to transfer MUTB’s corporate loan, project finance, real estate finance,and related foreign exchange and remittance operations to BTMU and to change BTMU’s corporate name to“MUFG Bank, Ltd.” in or around April 2018, subject to regulatory approvals.
In May 2017, we agreed to make Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS a wholly owned subsidiary through a sharepurchase transaction in which we will acquire all of The Norinchukin Bank’s 15.02% equity interest in
Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS by way of a process pursuant to Article 767 of the Companies Act. The purchasetransaction is expected to be completed on October 1, 2017.

The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd.
BTMU is a major commercial banking organization in Japan that provides a broad range of domestic andinternational banking services from its offices in Japan and around the world. BTMU’s registered head office islocated at 7-1, Marunouchi 2-chome, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 100-8388, Japan, and its telephone number is81-3-3240-1111. BTMU is a joint stock company (kabushiki kaisha) incorporated in Japan under the Companies

Limited after their respective parent companies, MTFG and UFJ Holdings, merged to form MUFG on October 1,
2005.
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi was formed through the merger, on April 1, 1996, of The Mitsubishi Bank,
Limited and The Bank of Tokyo, Ltd.
The origins of Mitsubishi Bank can be traced to the Mitsubishi Exchange Office, a money exchange houseestablished in 1880 by Yataro Iwasaki, the founder of the Mitsubishi industrial, commercial and financial group.
In 1895, the Mitsubishi Exchange Office was succeeded by the Banking Division of the Mitsubishi Goshi
Kaisha, the holding company of the “Mitsubishi group” of companies. Mitsubishi Bank had been a principalbank to many of the Mitsubishi group companies but broadened its relationships to cover a wide range ofJapanese industries, small and medium-sized companies and individuals.
Bank of Tokyo was established in 1946 as a successor to The Yokohama Specie Bank, Ltd., a special
foreign exchange bank established in 1880. When the government of Japan promulgated the Foreign ExchangeBank Law in 1954, Bank of Tokyo became the only bank licensed under that law. Because of its license, Bank ofTokyo received special consideration from the Ministry of Finance in establishing its offices abroad and in manyother aspects relating to foreign exchange and international finance.
UFJ Bank was formed through the merger, on January 15, 2002, of The Sanwa Bank, Limited and The
Tokai Bank, Limited.
Sanwa Bank was established in 1933 when the three Osaka-based banks, the Konoike Bank, the Yamaguchi
Bank, and the Sanjyushi Bank merged. Sanwa Bank was known as a city bank having the longest history inJapan, since the foundation of Konoike Bank can be traced back to the Konoike Exchange Office established in
1656. The origin of Yamaguchi Bank was also a money exchange house, established in 1863. Sanjyushi Bank
was founded by influential fiber wholesalers in 1878. The corporate philosophy of Sanwa Bank had been thecreation of premier banking services especially for small and medium-sized companies and individuals.
Tokai Bank was established in 1941 when the three Nagoya-based banks, the Aichi Bank, the Ito Bank, andthe Nagoya Bank merged. In 1896, Aichi Bank took over businesses of the Jyuichi Bank established bywholesalers in 1877 and the Hyakusanjyushi Bank established in 1878. Ito Bank and Nagoya Bank were
established in 1881 and 1882, respectively. Tokai Bank had expanded the commercial banking business tocontribute to economic growth mainly of the Chubu area in Japan, which is known for its manufacturingindustries, especially automobiles.

Corporation.”
Mitsubishi Trust Bank traces its history to The Mitsubishi Trust Company, Limited, which was founded by
the leading members of the Mitsubishi group companies in 1927. The Japanese banking and financial industry
was reconstructed after World War II and, in 1948, Mitsubishi Trust Bank was authorized to engage in thecommercial banking business, in addition to its trust business, under the new name Asahi Trust & Banking
Corporation. In 1952, the bank changed its name again to “The Mitsubishi Trust and Banking Corporation.”
Nippon Trust and Banking and The Tokyo Trust Bank, Ltd., which were previously subsidiaries of Bank ofTokyo-Mitsubishi, was merged into Mitsubishi Trust Bank on October 1, 2001.
UFJ Trust Bank was founded in 1959 as The Toyo Trust & Banking Company, Limited, or Toyo Trust
Bank. The Sanwa Trust & Banking Company, Limited, which was a subsidiary of Sanwa Bank, was merged into
Toyo Trust Bank on October 1, 1999. The Tokai Trust & Banking Company, Limited, which was a subsidiary of
Tokai Bank, was merged into Toyo Trust Bank on July 1, 2001. Toyo Trust Bank was renamed “UFJ Trust Bank

became an intermediate holding company by spinning off its securities and investment banking business
operations to a wholly-owned operating subsidiary established in December 2009, currently MUMSS. Upon the
consummation of the corporate spin-off transaction, the intermediate holding company was renamed “Mitsubishi
UFJ Securities Holdings Co., Ltd.” and the operating subsidiary was renamed “Mitsubishi UFJ
Securities Co., Ltd.” The operating subsidiary was subsequently renamed MUMSS in May 2010 upon integrationof our securities operations in Japan with those of Morgan Stanley.
MUS was formed through the merger between Mitsubishi Securities Co., Ltd. and UFJ Tsubasa
Securities Co., Ltd. on October 1, 2005, with Mitsubishi Securities being the surviving entity. The surviving
entity was renamed “Mitsubishi UFJ Securities Co., Ltd.” and, in September 2007, became our wholly-owned
subsidiary through a share exchange transaction.
Mitsubishi Securities was formed in September 2002 through a merger of Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi’ssecurities subsidiaries and affiliate, KOKUSAI Securities Co., Ltd., Tokyo-Mitsubishi Securities Co., Ltd. andTokyo-Mitsubishi Personal Securities Co., Ltd., and Mitsubishi Trust Bank’s securities affiliate, Issei
Securities Co., Ltd. In July 2005, MTFG made Mitsubishi Securities a directly-held subsidiary by acquiring all of

MUFG Management Policy

Throughout the Group, thepeople of MUFG are working under three shared values—Integrity and Responsibility, Professionalism andTeamwork, and Challenging Ourselves to Grow—while aiming to be the world’s most trusted financial group.

Corporate Vision
OUR MISSION

To be a foundation of strength, committed to meeting the needs ofour customers, serving society, and fostering shared and sustainablegrowth for a better world.
OUR VISIONBe the world’s most trusted financial group

1. Work together to exceed the expectations of our customers
2. Provide reliable and constant support to our customers
3. Expand and strengthen our global presence
OUR VALUES

1. Integrity and Responsibility 2. Professionalism and Teamwork 3. Challenge Ourselves to Grow
We have declared our message to the world as “Quality for You,” with management’s emphasis on quality.
“Quality for You” means that by providing high-quality services, we aspire to help improve the quality of the
lives of individual customers and the quality of each corporate customer. The “You” expresses the basic stance of
MUFG that we seek to contribute not only to the development of our individual customers but also communities
and society. We believe that delivering superior quality services, reliability, and global coverage will result in
more profound and enduring contributions to society.
Medium- and long-term management strategy
The operating environment for financial institutions is transforming substantially amidst such trends as thechanges in consumption patterns stemming from the aging of the Japanese population and its declining birthrate
and the advance of information and communications technology. It is crucial to the further progress of the
MUFG Group for us to maintain an accurate understanding of such changes, and undertake evolution andreformation of our business model as a preemptive response to these changes. Based on this recognition, the
MUFG Group turned its eye toward expected operating environment changes over the next decade, and launched
a new medium-term business plan. In this plan, we outline the strategies that we intend to implement over the
first three-year period from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. The
basic policy of the medium-term business plan is defined as “Evolution and reformation to achieve sustainablegrowth for MUFG,” and we have formulated Group business strategies and administrative practices and businessfoundation strategies of the plan based on three strategic focuses: “Customer perspective,” “Group-driven
approach,” and “Productivity improvements.” “Customer perspective” calls on us to develop businesses based onchanging customer needs. “Group-driven approach” inspires us to bolster inter-Group company unity andconsider how to optimize our business on a Group-wide basis. “Productivity improvements” encapsulates ourcommitment to boosting competitiveness by pursuing higher levels of rationality and efficiency.
For the Group business strategies, we are seeking to enhance support for wealth accumulation andstimulation of consumption for individuals, contribute to the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises, andlink contribution to the revitalization of the Japanese economy with the stable growth of MUFG in Japan.
Globally, we aim to enhance and expand businesses by evolving and reforming our Corporate & Investment
32

Banking, or CIB, model, sales and trading operation, and asset management and investor services operations. We
are also working to further reinforce transaction banking operations and strengthen commercial banking
platforms in Asia and the United States to construct a next-generation business base.
For the administrative practices and business foundation strategies, MUFG aims to streamline Group-wide
operations and create administration practices that are appropriate for a global systemically important financial
institution with maintaining a strong capital base as the first priority. This is expected to enable us continue tooperate a business model that evolves and transforms on a Group-wide and global basis while taking steps torespond to the higher expectations of outside stakeholders.
Retail Banking Business GroupThe Retail Banking Business Group covers all retail businesses, including commercial banking, trust
banking and securities businesses, and offers a full range of banking products and services, including financial
consulting services, to retail customers in Japan. This business group integrates the retail businesses of BTMU,
MUTB, MUMSS, Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS and other affiliate companies of MUFG. We offer a full range of bankdeposit products, including a non-interest-bearing deposit account that is redeemable on demand and intended
primarily for payment and settlement functions. We also offer a variety of asset management and asset
administration services, and trust products and other investment products, as well as other products and services
described below.
Business Environment and Management Strategy
In Japan, the trends of decreasing birthrate and aging population continue to accelerate. We are also seeing
increasing polarization of income and assets while the spread of information and communications technology isbringing further diversification of settlement methods. In this environment, we see MUFG contributing tosustained economic growth in Japan in two ways: (1) by promoting a shift to asset building from savings throughour asset management business, and promoting the circulation of funds in the economy; and (2) by revitalizing
personal consumption through our settlement and consumer finance businesses. We have strengthened ourcommitment to our “customer-first” undertakings by adopting in May 2017 the MUFG Basic Policy for
Fiduciary Duties, our enhanced group-wide guidelines for providing customer-oriented products and services
applicable to our asset management operations. Through these and other means, we aim to become the top
financial group in the retail business segment, chosen by a wide variety of customers with our business spanning
the generations.
Responding to Investment Needs
We aim to ensure that customers can adequately inform themselves of investment opportunities by
providing various mediums such as appointments with representatives, seminars at branches with investment
experts as lecturers, and “investment consultation sessions” on weekends and national holidays, and during
evening hours. We have also been expanding our product lines, adding services such as investment trusts andforeign currency deposits, in order to be better able to respond to customers’ various investment needs. In
addition, we have been working proactively to promote the Japanese individual savings account system,
generally referred to as the Nippon Individual Savings Account, or NISA, program, which offers tax exemptions
on capital gains and dividend income for investments up to ¥1.2 million a year for a maximum of five years.
Moreover, in January 2016, we launched a similar tax exemption program for customers who are under the ageof 20 called the “Junior NISA” program. This program is intended to allow parents and grandparents to open andtransfer their financial assets to savings accounts for the benefit of their children or grandchildren, through whichinvestments may be made for up to ¥0.8 million a year for a maximum of five years. As of March 31, 2017, we
had approximately 972,269 NISA and Junior NISA accounts.
We have focused on strengthening collaboration among our group companies. For example, foreign bonds
made available by MUMSS and other group securities companies are also available at BTMU and MUTB. Also,
33

BTMU provides “Retail Money Desk” services at 64 branches across Japan, where investment experts seconded
from MUMSS respond to customers’ sophisticated investment needs. We have implemented methods that aredesigned to better communicate information regarding product and service options to customers. The use oftablet computers enables BTMU’s sales representatives to propose products and services that match individual
customers’ needs by showing them the latest market information, detailed information on major products andservices, and asset management and life-plan simulations. All MUTB branches now offer “Private Account,” anasset management account service through which each customer can consult with his or her portfolio manager inperson to manage investments according to a personalized plan.
Responding to Insurance Needs
BTMU acts as a sales channel for a variety of insurance products, including annuity insurance, single

insurance, whole life insurance and medical insurance plans are available at all MUTB branches. Continued
efforts will be made to further reinforce product lines and sales framework.

customers prepare, maintain and execute wills, an inheritance planning service called “Shisan Shokei Planning”

MUTB and Mitsubishi UFJ Real Estate Services offer real estate
brokerage services for both investment and business properties and residential properties, responding tocustomers’ various real-estate-related needs.
Responding to Loan Needs
Under the Bank of Japan’s negative interest rate policy, decreasing market interest rates has resulted instronger demand for housing loans in Japan, which provides a business opportunity for us. With respect tohousing loans, BTMU offers “Loans with Supplemental Health Insurance for Seven Major Illnesses” through athird party insurance company to help with loan payments in case of unexpected major illnesses such as cancer orheart attacks, a group credit life insurance plan which is mandatory for housing loans, with reduced qualification

most circumstances, apply for without visiting a bank branch. This loan can be used to pay for education, motor
vehicle purchases and other purposes.

Asset and Liability Management
We manage our interest and liquidity risks residing in our balance sheets through, among other things,
transactions designed to manage profit and loss impact attributable to interest rate movements based on ourbalance sheet forecasts, while aiming to maximize our profit at the same time primarily by investing in highly
liquid government bonds such as Japanese government bonds and U.S. treasury bonds and also by utilizing otherfinancial products such as interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps.
Strategic Investments
We seek to enhance our profitability and diversify our portfolios by investing in financial products such as
corporate bonds and funds.
Global Strategic Alliance with Morgan Stanley
As of March 31, 2017, we held approximately 432 million shares of Morgan Stanley’s common stock
representing approximately 23.3 % of the voting rights in Morgan Stanley and Series C Preferred Stock with aface value of approximately $521.4 million and 10% dividend. As of the same date, we had two representatives
appointed to Morgan Stanley’s board of directors. We adopted the equity method of accounting for ourinvestment in Morgan Stanley beginning with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012.
In conjunction with Morgan Stanley, we formed two securities joint venture companies in May 2010 tointegrate our respective Japanese securities companies. We converted the wholesale and retail securities
40

businesses conducted in Japan by MUS into MUMSS. Morgan Stanley contributed the investment banking
operations conducted in Japan by its former wholly-owned subsidiary, Morgan Stanley Japan, to MUMSS, andconverted the sales and trading and capital markets businesses conducted in Japan by Morgan Stanley Japan into
an entity called Morgan Stanley MUFG Securities, Co., Ltd., or MSMS. We hold a 60% economic interest in
MUMSS and MSMS, and Morgan Stanley holds a 40% economic interest in MUMSS and MSMS. We hold a
60% voting interest and Morgan Stanley holds a 40% voting interest in MUMSS, and we hold a 49% votinginterest and Morgan Stanley holds a 51% voting interest in MSMS. Morgan Stanley’s and our economic andvoting interests in the securities joint venture companies are held through intermediate holding companies. We
have retained control of MUMSS and we account for our interest in MSMS under the equity method due to oursignificant influence over MSMS. The board of directors of MUMSS has fifteen members, nine of whom aredesignated by us and six of whom are designated by Morgan Stanley. The board of directors of MSMS has ten
members, six of whom are designated by Morgan Stanley and four of whom are designated by us. The CEO of
MUMSS is designated by us and the CEO of MSMS is designated by Morgan Stanley.
We have also expanded the scope of our global strategic alliance with Morgan Stanley into othergeographies and businesses, including (1) a loan marketing joint venture that provides clients in the United Stateswith access to the world-class lending and capital markets services from both companies, (2) business referralarrangements in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, covering capital markets, loans, fixed income sales
and other businesses, (3) global commodities referral arrangements whereby BTMU and its affiliates refer clientsin need of commodities-related hedging solutions to certain affiliates of Morgan Stanley, and (4) an employee
secondment program to share best practices and expertise in a wide range of business areas.
Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley PB Securities Co., Ltd., in which MUMSS holds 75%, and BTMU holds
the remaining 25%, of the voting rights, has an agreement with Morgan Stanley. Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley
PB Securities leverages MUFG’s broad customer base, utilizes Morgan Stanley’s global and high quality insight,
and further its collaborations with other group companies by strengthening its coordination with MUMSS. It
aims for further development of its wealth management business, which is one of the largest in Japan.
See “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—If our strategic alliancewith Morgan Stanley fails, we could suffer financial or reputational loss.”
Competition
We face strong competition in all of our principal areas of operation. The structural reforms in financial
industry regulations and recent developments in financial markets have resulted in some significant changes in
the Japanese financial system and prompted banks to merge or reorganize their operations, thus changing thenature of competition from other financial institutions as well as from other types of businesses.
Japan
Since their formation in 2000 and 2001, the so-called Japanese “mega bank” groups, including us, theMizuho Financial Group and the Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, have continued to expand their businesses
and take measures designed to enhance their financial group capabilities. For example, in July 2013, Mizuho
Bank, Ltd. and Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd. merged, and the merged entity presently operates under the
corporate name of “Mizuho Bank, Ltd.” In November 2015, SMBC Trust Bank, Ltd., a subsidiary of Sumitomo
Mitsui Financial Group, acquired the retail banking business of Citibank Japan, Ltd.
Heightened competition among the mega bank groups is currently expected in various financial sectors as
they have recently announced plans to expand, or have expanded, their respective businesses. For example, in the
securities sector, in May 2010, in conjunction with Morgan Stanley, we created two securities joint venturecompanies in Japan, MUMSS and MSMS, by integrating the operations of MUS and Morgan Stanley Japan. In
January 2013, Mizuho Securities and Mizuho Investors Securities Co., Ltd. merged. For a discussion of the two
securities joint venture companies created by us and Morgan Stanley, see “—B. Business Overview—Global
Strategic Alliance with Morgan Stanley.”41

In the retail business sector, customers often have needs for a broad range of financial products and services,such as investment trusts and insurance products. Recently, competition has increased due to the development of
new products and distribution channels. For example, Japanese banks compete with one another by developing
innovative proprietary computer technologies that allow them to deliver basic banking services in a more
efficient manner and to create sophisticated new products in response to customer demand. Competition has also
increased since the introduction in January 2014 of the Japanese individual savings account system, generally
referred to as the NISA program, which currently offers tax exemptions on capital gains and dividend income forinvestments up to ¥1.2 million a year for a maximum of five years. In addition, in December 2015, Sumitomo
Mitsui Trust Bank, Ltd. acquired Citi Cards Japan, Inc., which previously operated the credit card business of
Citigroup Inc. in Japan.
In the private banking sector, competition among the mega bank groups has intensified as a result of recent
corporate actions designed to strengthen their operations. We made Mitsubishi UFJ Merrill Lynch PB Securities
Co., Ltd. a wholly owned subsidiary in December 2012 to enhance our private banking services for highnet-worth customers, and changed its name to Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley PB Securities, Ltd. in March
2014. In October 2013, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation acquired the former Société Générale Private
Banking Japan, Ltd. from Société Générale S.A. and changed its name to SMBC Trust Bank, Ltd.
In the consumer finance sector, recent regulatory reforms and legal developments have negatively impacted
the business environment, resulting in failures of several consumer finance companies and intensifiedcompetition among consumer finance companies that have remained in business, particularly among thoseaffiliated with the mega banks. In April 2012, Promise Co., Ltd. became a wholly owned subsidiary of theSumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, and changed its name as SMBC Consumer Finance Co., Ltd. in July 2012.
See “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Because of our loans to
consumers and our shareholdings in companies engaged in consumer lending, changes in the business orregulatory environment for consumer finance companies in Japan may further adversely affect our financial
results.”
The trust assets business is an area that is becoming increasingly competitive because of regulatory changes
in the industry that have expanded the products and services that can be offered since the mid-2000s. In addition,
there is growing corporate demand for changes in the trust regulatory environment, such as reforms of thepension system and related accounting regulations under Japanese GAAP. Competition may increase in the
future as changes are made to respond to such corporate demand and regulatory barriers to entry are lowered.
Competition is also expected to intensify as a result of recent integrations and entrants in the industry. For
example, in April 2011, Sumitomo Trust and Banking and Chuo Mitsui Trust Holdings, Inc. established
Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Holdings, Inc., a holding company, to integrate their operations. In April 2012,
Sumitomo Trust and Banking, The Chuo Mitsui Trust and Banking Company, Limited and Chuo Mitsui Asset
Trust and Banking Company, Limited, the three trust bank subsidiaries of Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Holdings,
merged, and the surviving entity was renamed Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank. In July 2015, two of our asset
management subsidiaries in Japan, Mitsubishi UFJ Asset Management Co., Ltd. and KOKUSAI AssetManagement Co., Ltd. merged, and the surviving entity presently operates under the corporate name of“Mitsubishi UFJ Kokusai Asset Management Co., Ltd.” In August 2015, JP Asset Management Co., Ltd. wasestablished as a joint venture with the Japan Post Group, Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank and Nomura Holdings,
Inc. holding 50%, 30% and 20% equity interests, respectively, in the joint venture. In October 2016, the Mizuho
Financial Group integrated Mizuho Asset Management Co., Ltd., Shinko Asset Management Co., Ltd. and theasset management business of Mizuho Trust & Banking Co., Ltd., all of which were asset management
subsidiaries of the Mizuho Financial Group in Japan, and DIAM Co., Ltd., which was an asset management joint
venture between the Mizuho Financial Group and Dai-ichi Life Insurance Company in Japan. In July 2016, theSumitomo Mitsui Financial Group made Sumitomo Mitsui Asset Management Co., Ltd. a consolidated
subsidiary through the acquisition of additional equity interest in the asset management company. In March
2017, the Mizuho Financial Group announced plans to integrate Trust and Custody Services Bank, Ltd., its trust42bank subsidiary specialized in the asset administration business, with Japan Trustee Services Bank, Ltd., which isa trust bank joint venture between Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Holdings and Resona Bank, Ltd. specialized in theasset administration business.
In recent years, the Japanese government has identified several governmental financial institutions ascandidates to privatize. In particular, in November 2015, shares of Japan Post Holdings Co., Ltd., Japan Post
Bank Co., Ltd. and Japan Post Insurance Co., Ltd. were listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. In the initial public
offering, approximately 11% of the shares in each of the Japan Post companies were sold. The Japanese
government is expected to sell additional shares in Japan Post Holdings and cause Japan Post Holdings to sell
additional shares in the Japan Post Bank and Japan Post Insurance in the future. Under the current postal
privatization law, Japan Post Bank and Japan Post Insurance may enter into new business areas upon obtaining
government approvals, and if Japan Post Holdings’ equity holdings decrease to 50% or below, the two companies
will be allowed to enter into new business areas upon submission of a notice to the government. In such case, theJapan Post Group companies may seek to enter into new financial businesses and increasingly compete with us.
In addition, Japan Post Bank is one of the world’s largest holders of deposits, which provide a cost-effective
source of funding for the bank. See “—B. Business Overview—The Japanese Financial System—Government
Financial Institutions.”
The mega bank groups face significant competition with other financial groups as well as companies thathave traditionally not been engaged in banking services. For example, the Nomura Group has been a major
player in the securities market in Japan. In addition, various Japanese non-bank financial institutions andnon-financial companies have entered into the Japanese banking sector. For example, Orix Corporation, a
non-bank financial institution, as well as the Seven & i Holdings Co., Ltd., Sony Corporation and Aeon Co., Ltd.,
which were non-financial companies, offer various banking services, often through non-traditional distribution
channels.
Foreign
In the United States, we face substantial competition in all aspects of our business. We face competition
from other large U.S. and non-U.S. money-center banks, as well as from similar institutions that provide
financial services. Through MUB, we currently compete principally with U.S. and non-U.S. money-center andregional banks, thrift institutions, asset management companies, investment advisory companies, consumer
finance companies, credit unions and other financial institutions.
In other international markets, we face competition from commercial banks and similar financial
institutions, particularly major international banks and the leading domestic banks in the local financial markets
in which we conduct business. For example, Japanese mega banks, including us, and other major internationalbanks have been expanding their operations in the Asian market, where leading local banks also have been
growing and increasing their presence recently. Furthermore, we are aiming to expand our retail and small andmedium-sized enterprise businesses along with our corporate banking business in South East Asia through ouracquisition of Krungsri in Thailand, and compete with leading local banks in such businesses.
In addition, we may face further competition as a result of recent investments, mergers and other businesstie-ups among global financial institutions, including, for example, our recent acquisitions of, and business andcapital alliances with, asset management, administration and custody services companies.
The Japanese Financial System
Japanese financial institutions may be categorized into three types:‰

the central bank, namely the Bank of Japan;‰

private banking institutions; and‰government financial institutions.
43

The Bank of JapanThe Bank of Japan’s role is to maintain price stability and the stability of the financial system to ensure asolid foundation for sound economic development.
Private Banking Institutions
Private banking institutions in Japan are commonly classified into two categories (the following numbers
are based on information published by the FSA available as of April 24, 2017):‰

ordinary banks (124 ordinary banks and 53 foreign commercial banks with ordinary banking
operations); and‰trust banks (16 trust banks, including two Japanese subsidiaries of foreign financial institutions).

Ordinary banks in turn are classified as city banks, of which there are four, including BTMU, and regionalbanks, of which there are 106 and other banks, of which there are 14. In general, the operations of ordinary banks
correspond to commercial banking operations in the United States. City banks and regional banks are
distinguished based on head office location as well as the size and scope of their operations.
The city banks are generally considered to constitute the largest and most influential group of banks inJapan. Generally, these banks are based in large cities, such as Tokyo and Osaka, and operate nationally throughnetworks of branch offices. The city banks provide a wide variety of banking and other financial products andservices to large corporate customers, including the major industrial companies in Japan, as well as small andmedium-sized companies and retail customers.
With some exceptions, the regional banks tend to be much smaller in terms of total assets than the city
banks. Each of the regional banks is based in one of the Japanese prefectures and extends its operations intoneighboring prefectures. Their customers are mostly regional enterprises and local public utilities. The regionalbanks also lend to large corporations. In line with the recent trend among financial institutions toward mergers orbusiness tie-ups, various regional banks have announced or are currently negotiating or pursuing integrationtransactions.
Trust banks, including MUTB, provide various trust services relating to money trusts, pension trusts andinvestment trusts and offer other services relating to real estate, stock transfer agency and testamentary services,
as well as banking services.
In recent years, almost all of the city banks have consolidated with other city banks and, in some cases,
integrated with trust banks. Consolidation or integration among these banks was achieved, in most cases, throughthe use of a bank holding company.
In addition to ordinary banks and trust banks, other private financial institutions in Japan, including banks
operated by non-financial companies, shinkin banks, or credit associations, and credit cooperatives, are engaged
primarily in making loans to small businesses and individuals.
Government Financial Institutions
There are a number of government financial institutions in Japan, which are corporations wholly owned or
majority-owned by the government and operate under the government’s supervision. Their funds are provided
mainly from government sources. Certain types of operations undertaken by these institutions have been or areplanned to be assumed by, or integrated with the operations of, private corporations through privatizations andother measures.

44

Among them are the following:‰

The Development Bank of Japan, which was established for the purpose of contributing to the economic
development of Japan by extending long-term loans, mainly to primary and secondary sector industries,
and which was reorganized as a joint stock company in October 2008 as part of its ongoing privatization
process, with the government being required by law to continue to hold 50% or more of the shares in thebank until the completion of certain specified investment operations, which the bank is required to
endeavor to achieve by March 2026, and more than one-third for an unspecified period thereafter;‰

Japan Finance Corporation, which was formed in October 2008, through the merger of the international
financial operations of the former Japan Bank for International Cooperation, National Life FinanceCorporation, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Finance Corporation, and Japan Finance Corporationfor Small and Medium Enterprise, for the primary purposes of supplementing and encouraging theprivate financing of exports, imports, overseas investments and overseas economic cooperation, andsupplementing private financing to the general public, small and medium-sized enterprises and thoseengaged in agriculture, forestry and fishery. In April 2012, Japan Finance Corporation spun off its
international operations to create Japan Bank for International Cooperation as a separate governmentowned entity;‰

Japan Housing Finance Agency, which was originally established in June 1950 as the Government
Housing Loan Corporation for the purpose of providing housing loans to the general public, and which
was reorganized as an incorporated administrative agency and started to specialize in securitization of
housing loans in April 2007; and‰The Japan Post Group companies, a group of joint stock companies including Japan Post Bank, whichwere formed in October 2007 as part of the Japanese government’s privatization plan for the former
Japan Post, a government-run public services corporation, which had been the Postal Service Agency
until March 2003. In November 2015, approximately 11% of the outstanding shares of each of Japan
Post Bank, Japan Post Insurance and Japan Post Holdings were sold to the public, and these companies
are currently listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

Supervision and Regulation
Japan
Supervision. The FSA is responsible for supervising and overseeing financial institutions, making policy
for the overall Japanese financial system and conducting insolvency proceedings with respect to financial
institutions. The Bank of Japan, as the central bank for financial institutions, also has supervisory authority overbanks in Japan, based primarily on its contractual agreements and transactions with the banks.
The Banking Law. Among the various laws that regulate financial institutions, the Banking Law and its
subordinated orders and ordinances are regarded as the fundamental law for ordinary banks and other private
financial institutions. The Banking Law addresses capital adequacy, inspections and reporting to banks and bankholding companies, as well as the scope of business activities, disclosure, accounting, limitation on granting
credit and standards for arm’s length transactions for them. Bank holding companies, banks and other financial
institutions are required to establish an appropriate system to better cope with conflicts of interest that may arise
from their business operations.
Legislation has recently been passed by, or introduced to, the Diet to amend various financial regulation
related laws, including the Banking Law, which includes certain deregulations on restrictions for shareholdings
by banks. For example, although a bank is generally prohibited from holding more than 5% of the outstanding
shares of another company (other than certain financial institutions) under the Banking Law, the bank may be
exempt from such requirement and allowed to hold more than 5% of the outstanding shares of such company
under amendments to the Banking Law that became effective in April 2014, if, among other exempted cases, a45

bank’s shareholding contributes to revitalizing a company’s business or the local economy related to suchcompany. In May 2016, the Diet passed legislation to amend the Banking Law to allow banks and bank holding
companies with the FSA’s approval to hold controlling interests in certain financial technology companies. The
amendments became effective as of April 1, 2017. As a result of the amendments, banks and bank holding
companies may now acquire and hold more than 5% of the voting rights in certain financial technology
companies, subject to the approval of the Commissioner of the FSA. In May 2017, a bill to amend the Banking
Law was passed by the Diet, with the aim to promote affiliation and cooperation between financial institutions
and financial technology companies while securing the protection of customers. The amendment is expected to
become effective by June 2018.
Bank holding company regulations. A bank holding company is prohibited from carrying out any businessother than the management of its subsidiaries and other incidental businesses. A bank holding company may haveany of the following as a subsidiary: a bank, a securities company, an insurance company, a foreign subsidiarythat is engaged in the banking, securities or insurance business and any company that is engaged in a financerelated business, such as a credit card company, a leasing company, investment advisory company, or financial
technology company as permitted by the April 1, 2017 amendments to the Banking Law. Certain companies thatare designated by a ministerial ordinance as those that cultivate new business fields may also become thesubsidiaries of a bank holding company.
In addition, under the April 1, 2017 amendments to the Banking Law, a bank holding company (i) is
required to perform certain specified functions as a bank holding company to ensure effective management of its
subsidiaries and (ii) is be allowed to engage in certain specified common operations of its subsidiaries so as toimprove the efficiency of the operations of its group companies.
Capital adequacy. The capital adequacy guidelines adopted by the FSA that are applicable to Japanesebank holding companies and banks with international operations closely follow the risk-weighted approach
introduced by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision of the Bank for International Settlements.
Basel II, as adopted by the FSA, has been applied to Japanese banks since March 31, 2007. Certain
provisions of Basel III have been adopted by the FSA for Japanese banking institutions with international
operations conducted through their foreign offices. Basel III is based on Basel II’s comprehensive regulatory
framework which is built on “three pillars”: (1) minimum capital requirements, (2) the self-regulation offinancial institutions based on supervisory review process, and (3) market discipline through the disclosure of
information.
The Group of Central Bank Governors and Heads of Supervision reached an agreement on the new global
regulatory framework, which has been referred to as “Basel III,” in July and September 2010. In December 2010,
the Basel Committee agreed on the details of the Basel III rules. The agreement on Basel III includes thefollowing: (1) raising the quality of capital to ensure banks are able to better absorb losses both on a going
concern basis and on a gone concern basis, (2) increasing the risk coverage of the capital framework, in particular
for trading activities, securitizations, exposures to off-balance sheet vehicles and counterparty credit exposuresarising from derivatives, (3) raising the level of minimum capital requirements, including an increase in theminimum common equity requirement from 2% to 4.5%, which was phased in between January 1, 2013 and theend of the calendar year 2014, and a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, which is expected to be phased in
between January 1, 2016 and the end of the calendar year 2018, bringing the total common equity requirement to
7%, (4) introducing an internationally harmonized leverage ratio to serve as a backstop to the risk-based capital
measure and to contain the build-up of excessive leverage in the system, (5) raising standards for the supervisory
review process (Pillar 2) and public disclosures (Pillar 3), together with additional guidance in the areas ofvaluation practices, stress testing, liquidity risk management, corporate governance and compensation,(6) introducing minimum global liquidity standards consisting of both a short term liquidity coverage ratio and alonger term structural net stable funding ratio, and (7) promoting the build-up of capital buffers that can be drawn
down in periods of stress, including both a capital conservation buffer and a countercyclical buffer to protect thebanking sector from periods of excess credit growth.
46

Under Basel III, Common Equity Tier 1, Tier 1 and total capital ratios are used to assess capital adequacy,
which ratios are determined by dividing applicable capital components by risk-weighted assets. Total capital isdefined as the sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital.
Under Basel III, Tier 1 capital is defined to include Common Equity Tier 1 and Additional Tier 1 capital.
Common Equity Tier 1 capital is a new category of capital primarily consisting of:‰common stock,‰capital surplus,‰

retained earnings, and‰accumulated other comprehensive income (progressively phased into the capital ratio calculation over
several years).

Regulatory adjustments including certain intangible fixed assets, such as goodwill, and defined benefit
pension fund net assets (prepaid pension costs) will be deducted from Common Equity Tier 1 capital. The
amount of adjustments to be deducted will increase progressively over time.
Additional Tier 1 capital generally consists of Basel III compliant preferred securities and, during thetransition period, other capital that meets Tier I requirements under the former Basel II standards, net of
regulatory adjustments. Subject to transitional measures, adjustments are made to Additional Tier 1 capital for
items including intangible fixed assets, such as goodwill, and foreign currency translation adjustments, with theamounts of such adjustments to Additional Tier 1 capital progressively decreasing over time.
Tier 2 capital generally consists of:‰Basel III compliant subordinated obligations,‰

during the transition period, capital that meets Tier II requirements under the former Basel II standards,‰

allowances for credit losses, and‰non-controlling interests in subsidiaries’ Tier 2 capital instruments.

Subject to transitional measures, certain items including 45% of unrealized profit on available-for-salesecurities and revaluation of land are reflected in Tier 2 capital with the amounts progressively decreasing overtime.
In order to qualify as Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital under Basel III, applicable instruments such as preferred sharesand subordinated debt must have a clause in their terms and conditions that requires them to be written-off orforced to be converted into common stock upon the occurrence of certain trigger events.
Risk-weighted assets are the sum of risk-weighted assets compiled for credit risk purposes, quotient ofdividing the amount equivalent to market risk by 8%, and quotient of dividing the amount equivalent tooperational risk by 8%, and also include any amount to be added due to transitional measures as well as floor
adjustments, if necessary. Risk-weighted assets include the capital charge of the credit valuation adjustment, or
CVA, the credit risk related to asset value correlation multiplier for large financial institutions, the 250% riskweighted threshold items not deducted from Common Equity Tier 1 capital, and certain Basel II capital
deductions that were converted to risk-weighted assets under Basel III, such as securitizations and significant
investments in commercial entities. Certain Basel III provisions were adopted by the FSA with transitional
measures and became effective March 31, 2013.
The capital ratio standards applicable to us are as follows:‰a minimum total capital ratio of 8.0%,‰

a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0%, and‰a minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%.
47

These minimum capital ratios are applicable to MUFG on a consolidated basis and to BTMU and MUTB on
a consolidated as well as stand-alone basis.
We have been granted an approval by the FSA to exclude the majority of our investment in Morgan Stanleyfrom being subject to double gearing adjustments. The approval was granted for a 10-year period, but theapproval amount will be phased out by 20% each year starting from March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2017, afull application of double gearing adjustments with respect to our investment in Morgan Stanley would have
reduced our Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio by approximately 0.8%.
The Financial Stability Board identified us as a global systematically important bank, or G-SIB, in its mostrecent annual report published in November 2016, and is expected to update the list of G-SIB annually. In
December 2015, the FSA also designated us as a G-SIB as well as a domestic systemically important bankgenerally referred to as a “D-SIB.”
Effective March 31, 2016, the FSA’s capital conservation buffer, countercyclical buffer and G-SIB
surcharge requirements became applicable to Japanese banking institutions with international operations
conducted through foreign offices. The requirements are currently being phased in and, as of March 31, 2017, weare required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of 1.25% and a G-SIB surcharge of 0.75% in addition to the
4.50% minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio. As of the same date, no countercyclical buffer is applicable
to us. When fully implemented on March 31, 2019, we will be required to maintain a capital conservation bufferof 2.5%, a countercyclical buffer of up to 2.5%, and a G-SIB surcharge of 1.5%, assuming we will be in Bucket 2of the G-SIB list.
For a discussion on our capital ratios, see “Item 5.B. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—
Liquidity and Capital Resources—Capital Adequacy.”
In determining capital ratios under the FSA guidelines reflecting Basel III, we and our banking subsidiaries
used the Advanced Internal Ratings-Based approach, or the AIRB approach, to calculate capital requirements for
credit risk as of March 31, 2017. The Standardized Approach is used for some subsidiaries that are considered to
be immaterial to the overall MUFG capital requirements, and MUAH has adopted a phased rollout of the internalratings-based approach. Market risk is reflected in the risk-weighted assets by applying the Internal Models
Approach to calculate general market risk and the Standardized Measurement Method to calculate specific risk.
Under the Internal Models Approach, we principally use a historical simulation model to calculate value-at-risk,
or VaR, amounts by estimating the profit and loss on our portfolio by applying actual fluctuations in historicalmarket rates and prices over a fixed period. Under the FSA guidelines reflecting Basel III, we reflect operationalrisk in the risk-weighted assets by using the Standardized Approach and the Advanced Measurement Approach.
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has issued proposals to revise the current market risk framework,
including stricter measures relating to some of our investment securities portfolio. For more information, see“Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk—Operational Risk
Management.”
Prompt corrective action system. Under the prompt corrective action system, the FSA may take corrective
action, if a bank or a bank holding company fails to meet the minimum capital adequacy ratio. These actions
include requiring such bank or bank holding company to formulate and implement capital improvement
measures, requiring it to reduce assets or take other specific actions, and issuing an order to suspend all or part ofits business operations.
Prompt warning system. Under the prompt warning system, the FSA may take precautionary measures tomaintain and promote the sound operations of financial institutions, even before those financial institutions
become subject to prompt corrective actions. These measures require a financial institution to enhance
profitability, credit risk management, stability and cash flows.

48

Deposit insurance system and government measures for troubled financial institutions. The Deposit
Insurance Act is intended to protect depositors if a financial institution fails to meet its obligations. The Deposit
Insurance Corporation was established in accordance with the Deposit Insurance Act.
City banks, including BTMU, regional banks, trust banks, including MUTB, and various other credit
institutions participate in the deposit insurance system on a compulsory basis.
Under the Deposit Insurance Act, the maximum amount of protection is ¥10 million per customer within
one bank. The ¥10 million maximum applies to all deposits except for non-interest bearing deposits, which are
non-interest bearing deposits redeemable on demand and maintained by depositors primarily in settlement
accounts for payment and settlement purposes. Deposits in settlement accounts are fully protected without amaximum amount limitation. Certain types of deposits are not covered by the deposit insurance system, such as
foreign currency deposits and negotiable certificates of deposit. As of April 1, 2017, the Deposit Insurance
Corporation charged an insurance premium equal to 0.049% per year on the deposits in the settlement accounts,
and a premium equal to 0.036% per year on the deposits in other accounts.
Under the Deposit Insurance Act, a Financial Reorganization Administrator can be appointed by the Prime
Minister if a bank’s liabilities exceed its obligations or has suspended, or is likely to suspend, repayment ofdeposits. The Financial Reorganization Administrator will take control of the assets of the troubled bank, disposeof the assets and search for another institution willing to take over the troubled bank’s business. The troubled
bank’s business may also be transferred to a “bridge bank” established by the Deposit Insurance Corporation to
enable the troubled bank’s operations to be maintained and continue temporarily, and the bridge bank will seek totransfer the troubled bank’s assets to another financial institution or dissolve the troubled bank. The Deposit
Insurance Corporation protects deposits, as described above, either by providing financial aid for costs incurredby the financial institution succeeding the insolvent bank or by paying insurance money directly to depositors.
The financial aid provided by the Deposit Insurance Corporation may take the form of a monetary grant, loan ordeposit of funds, purchase of assets, guarantee or assumption of debt, subscription for preferred stock, or loss
sharing.
The Deposit Insurance Act also provides for exceptional measures to cope with systemic risk in the financial
industry. Where the Prime Minister recognizes that the failure of a bank which falls into any of (i) through(iii) below may cause an extremely grave problem to the maintenance of the financial order in Japan or theregion where such bank is operating, or systemic risk, if none of the measures described in (i) through (iii) below
is implemented, the Prime Minister may, following deliberation by the Financial Crisis Response Council,
confirm (nintei) the need to take any of the following measures: (i) if the bank does not fall into either of thecategories described in (ii) or (iii) below, the Deposit Insurance Corporation may subscribe for shares orsubordinated bonds of, or extend subordinated loans to the bank, or subscribe for shares of the bank holding
company of the bank, in order to enhance the bank’s regulatory capital (“Item 1 measures” (dai ichigo sochi));(ii) if the bank has suspended, or is likely to suspend, repayment of deposits, or its liabilities exceed its assets,financial aid exceeding the pay-off cost may be made available to such bank (“Item 2 measures” (dai nigo
sochi)); and (iii) if the bank has suspended, or is likely suspend, repayment of deposits, and its liabilities exceed
its assets, and the systemic risk cannot be avoided by the measures mentioned in (ii) above, the Deposit Insurance
Corporation may acquire all of the bank’s shares (“Item 3 measures” (dai sango sochi)). The expenses for the
implementation of the above measures will be borne by the banking industry, with an exception under which theJapanese government may provide partial subsidies for such expenses.
Under the new orderly resolution regime established by amendments to the Deposit Insurance Act that were
promulgated in June 2013 and became effective on March 6, 2014, financial institutions, including banks,
insurance companies and securities companies and their holding companies, are subject to the regime. Further,where the Prime Minister recognizes that the failure of a financial institution which falls into either of (a) or (b)below may cause a significant disruption to the Japanese financial market or system in Japan if measures49

described in (a) or measures described in (b) are not taken, the Prime Minister may, following deliberation by the
Financial Response Crisis Council, confirm (nintei) that any of the following measures need to be applied to thefinancial institution:(a) if the financial institution is not a financial institution whose liabilities exceed its assets, the financial
institution shall be placed under the special supervision by the Deposit Insurance Corporation over thefinancial institution’s business operations and management and the disposal of the financial
institution’s assets, and the Deposit Insurance Corporation may provide the financial institution withloans or guarantees necessary to avoid the risk of significant disruption to the financial system inJapan, or subscribe for shares or subordinated bonds of, or extend subordinated loans to, the financial
institution, taking into consideration the financial condition of the financial institution (“Specified Item
1 measures” (tokutei dai ichigo sochi) under Article 126-2, Paragraph 1, Item 1 of the Deposit
Insurance Act); or(b) if the financial institution is a financial institution whose liabilities exceed, or are likely to exceed, its
assets or which has suspended, or is likely to suspend, payments on its obligations, the financial
institution shall be placed under the special supervision by the Deposit Insurance Corporation over thefinancial institution’s business operations and management and the disposal of the financial
institution’s assets, and the Deposit Insurance Corporation may provide financial aid necessary to assist
a merger, business transfer, corporate split or other reorganization in respect of such failed financial
institution (“Specified Item 2 measures” (tokutei dai nigo sochi) under Article 126-2, Paragraph 1, Item
2 of the Deposit Insurance Act).
If the Prime Minister confirms that any of the measures set out in (b) above needs to be applied to a failed
financial institution, the Prime Minister may order that the failed financial institution’s business operations andmanagement and the disposal of the failed financial institution’s assets be placed under the special control of the
Deposit Insurance Corporation under Article 126-5 of the Deposit Insurance Act. The business or liabilities of thefinancial institution subject to the special supervision or the special control of the Deposit Insurance Corporation
as set forth above may also be transferred to a “bridge financial institution” established by the Deposit Insurance
Corporation to enable the financial institution’s operations to be maintained and continue temporarily, or thefinancial institution’s liabilities to be repaid, and the bridge financial institution will seek to transfer the financial
institution’s business or liabilities to another financial institution or dissolve the financial institution. The
financial aid provided by the Deposit Insurance Corporation to assist a merger, business transfer, corporate split
or other reorganization in respect of the failed financial institution set out in (b) above may take the form of amonetary grant, loan or deposit of funds, purchase of assets, guarantee or assumption of debts, subscription for
preferred stock or subordinated bonds, subordinated loan, or loss sharing. If the Deposit Insurance Corporation
has provided such financial assistance, the Prime Minister may designate the movable assets and claims of thefailed financial institution as not subject to attachment under Article 126-16 of the Deposit Insurance Act, andsuch merger, business transfer, corporate split or other reorganization may be conducted outside of the courtadministrated insolvency proceedings. If the financial institution subject to the special supervision or the special
control by the Deposit Insurance Corporation as set forth above has liabilities that exceed, or are likely to exceed,
its assets, or has suspended, or is likely to suspend, payments on its obligations, the financial institution may
transfer all or a material portion of its business or all or a material portion of shares of its subsidiaries orimplement corporate split or certain other corporate actions with court permission in lieu of any shareholder
resolutions under Article 126-13 of the Deposit Insurance Act. In addition, the Deposit Insurance Corporationmust request other financial institution creditors of the failed financial institution to refrain from exercising theirrights against the failed financial institution until measures necessary to avoid the risk of significant disruption to
the financial system in Japan have been taken, if it is recognized that such exercise of their rights is likely tomake the orderly resolution of the failed financial institution difficult.
The expenses for implementation of the measures under this regime will be borne by the financial industry,
with an exception under which the Japanese government may provide partial subsidies for such expenses within50

the limit to be specified in the government budget in cases where it is likely to cause extremely serious hindrance
to the maintenance of the credit system in Japan or significant turmoil in the Japanese financial market or system
if such expenses are to be borne only by the financial industry.
According to the announcement made by the FSA in March 2014, (i) Additional Tier 1 instruments andTier 2 instruments under Basel III issued by a bank must be written down or converted into common shares when
the Prime Minister confirms (nintei) that Item 2 measures (dai nigo sochi), Item 3 measures (dai sango sochi), or
Specified Item 2 measures (tokutei dai nigo sochi) need to be applied to the bank and (ii) Additional Tier 1
instruments and Tier 2 instruments under Basel III issued by a bank holding company must be written down orconverted into common shares when the Prime Minister confirms (nintei) that Specified Item 2 measures (tokutei
dai nigo sochi) need to be applied to the bank holding company.
Recovery and resolution plan. In November 2016, the Financial Stability Board published the latest list of
G-SIBs, which includes us. The list is annually updated by the Financial Stability Board. A recovery andresolution plan must be put in place for each G-SIB, and the plans must be regularly reviewed and updated. In
Japan, under the Banking Law and the Comprehensive Guidelines for Supervision of Major Banks, etc., financial
institutions identified as G-SIBs must, as part of their crisis management, prepare and submit a recovery plan,
including triggers for the recovery plan and an analysis of recovery options, to the FSA. The Comprehensive
Guidelines also provide that resolution plans for such financial institutions are prepared by the FSA. We
submitted our recovery plan to the FSA in December 2016.
Total loss-absorbing capacity. In November 2015, the Financial Stability Board issued the final Total LossAbsorbing Capacity, or TLAC, standard for G-SIBs, including us. The Financial Stability Board’s TLAC standard
is designed to ensure that if a G-SIB fails, it has sufficient loss-absorbing and recapitalization capacity available inresolution to implement an orderly resolution that minimizes impacts on financial stability, ensures the continuity ofcritical functions, and avoids exposing public funds to loss. The Financial Stability Board’s TLAC standard defines
a minimum requirement for the instruments and liabilities that should be readily available to absorb losses inresolution but allows each resolution authority’s power under the applicable resolution law to expose otherliabilities to loss through bail-in or the application of other resolution tools. The Financial Stability Board’s TLAC
standard requires a G-SIB to hold TLAC in an amount not less than 16% of its risk-weighted assets and 6% of theapplicable Basel III leverage ratio denominator by January 1, 2019, and not less than 18% of its risk-weighted assets
and 6.75% of the applicable Basel III leverage ratio denominator by January 1, 2022.
Following the publication of the final TLAC standards for G-SIBs by the Financial Stability Board inNovember 2015, the FSA published an explanatory paper outlining its approach for the introduction of the TLAC
framework in Japan on April 15, 2016. According to the FSA’s approach, which is subject to change based on
future international discussions, the preferred resolution strategy for G-SIBs in Japan is SPE resolution, in which
resolution powers are applied to the top-level entity of a banking group by a single national resolution authority. To
implement this SPE resolution strategy effectively, the FSA plans to require bank holding companies of Japanese
G-SIBs, which will be the resolution entities, to (i) meet the minimum external TLAC requirements provided under
the Financial Stability Board’s TLAC standard, and (ii) cause their material subsidiaries that are designated assystemically important by the FSA, including but not limited to certain material sub-groups as provided in the
Financial Stability Board’s TLAC standard, to maintain a certain level of capital and debt recognized by the FSA as
having Internal TLAC. In addition, under the approach, Japanese G-SIBs would be allowed to count the Japanese
Deposit Insurance Fund Reserves in an amount equivalent to 2.5% of their consolidated risk-weighted assets from2019 and 3.5% of their consolidated risk-weighted assets from 2022 as external TLAC.
Furthermore, under the SPE resolution strategy provided for in the approach, while the actual measures tobe taken will be determined on a case-by-case basis considering the actual condition of the relevant Japanese
G-SIB in crisis, a possible model of Japanese G-SIB resolution will be:(i)

Certain measures are taken with the involvement of the relevant authority with respect to the Internal
TLAC obligations that the relevant material subsidiaries of the bank holding company of the relevantJapanese G-SIB owe to the bank holding company so as to cause the bank holding company to absorb
the losses incurred by such material subsidiaries.
51

(ii) After the bank holding company absorbs the losses of its material subsidiaries, if it fulfills therequirements for the application of Specified Item 2 measures (tokutei dai nigo sochi) set forth in
Article 126-2, Paragraph 1, Item 2 of the Deposit Insurance Act, the Prime Minister confirms thatSpecified Item 2 measures (tokutei dai nigo sochi) need to be applied to the bank holding company andorders its operations and assets to be placed under the special control of the Deposit Insurance
Corporation. At this point, Basel III-eligible Additional Tier 1 instruments and Tier 2 instruments
issued by the bank holding company are written off or converted into equity under the terms of such
instruments prior to the loss absorption of external TLAC-eligible senior debt liabilities issued by thebank holding company. In addition, the Prime Minister prohibits by its designation creditors of thebank holding company from attaching any of its movable assets and claims which are to be transferred
to a bridge financial institution established by the Deposit Insurance Corporation pursuant to
Article 126-16 of the Deposit Insurance Act.
(iii) The bank holding company transfers its systemically important assets and liabilities (including shares of
its material subsidiaries) to such bridge financial institution with court permission in lieu of any
shareholder resolutions under Article 126-13 of the Deposit Insurance Act, under a decision by thePrime Minister that the bridge financial institution succeed to the business of the bank holding
company. On the other hand, it is expected that the bank holding company’s obligations with respect toexternal TLAC-eligible senior notes would not be transferred to the bridge financial institution andwould remain as the bank holding company’s liabilities.
(iv) After transferring its systemically important assets and liabilities, the Deposit Insurance Corporation files
a petition for the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding against the bank holding company throughwhich it will be dissolved, and the creditors of the bank holding company, including the holders of
external TLAC-eligible senior notes, will receive liquidation distributions out of the residual assets of thebank holding company, as a result of which they may absorb losses.
On July 6, 2017, the Financial Stability Board published “Guiding Principles on the Internal Total Lossabsorbing Capacity of G-SIBs (‘Internal TLAC’).” These principles were intended to assist the implementationof the Financial Stability Board’s internal TLAC requirement by providing guidance on the size and compositionof the internal TLAC requirement, cooperation and coordination between home and host authorities, and thetrigger mechanism for internal TLAC. The internal TLAC requirement is subject to implementation throughlegislation and regulation in each of the relevant jurisdictions, including Japan.
See “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—We may not be able tomaintain our capital ratios above minimum required levels, which could result in the suspension of some or all of
our operations.”
Liquidity Coverage Ratio. Japanese banks and bank holding companies with international operations are
required to disclose their LCRs calculated in accordance with the methodology prescribed in the FSA guidance
that has been adopted to implement the relevant Basel III standard. The LCR is a measure to determine whether abank has a sufficient amount of high-quality liquid assets, which are assets that can be converted easily and
immediately into cash in private markets in order to meet the bank’s liquidity needs, to survive in a 30-day
financial stress scenario, including sizable deposit outflows, inability to issue new bonds or access the interbank
market, stoppage of the collateralized funding market, need for additional collateral in connection with derivativetransactions, and significant outflows of cash under commitment lines to customers. Once a bank or bank holding
company fails to meet the minimum LCR of 100%, it is required to immediately report such failure to the FSA. If
the FSA deems the financial condition of the bank or bank holding company to be serious, the FSA may issue abusiness improvement order. A minimum LCR of 80% is required in 2017, and the required minimum ratio is
expected to be raised annually by 10 percentage points to 100% by 2019.
Net Stable Funding Ratio. The NSFR is a measure to determine whether a bank has sustainable and longterm liabilities and capital for its assets and activities. The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision issued thefinal standard of NSFR in October 2014. The standard is expected to become applicable by January 1, 2018. In
Japan, details of the NSFR requirements are currently under discussion.
52

Leverage Ratio. Japanese banks and bank holding companies with international operations are required todisclose their leverage ratios calculated in accordance with the methodology prescribed in the FSA guidance thathas been adopted to implement the relevant Basel III standard. The leverage ratio is designed for monitoring andpreventing the build-up of excessive leverage in the banking sector and is expressed as the ratio of Tier 1 capitalto total balance sheet assets adjusted in accordance with the FSA guidance. The Basel Committee on Banking
Supervision’s currently proposed minimum leverage ratio is 3% with additional requirements for G-SIBs. In
April 2016, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision published a consultation paper proposing, among otherthings, revisions to the measurement of derivative exposures, credit conversion factors for off-balance sheet
items, and additional requirements for G-SIBs. The Committee is expected to make any adjustments to theminimum leverage ratio by the end of the calendar year 2017 and implement the final minimum leverage ratio
requirement that reflects any such adjustments in 2018.
Other major developments relating to international bank capital regulatory standards. In July 2015, theBasel Committee on Banking Supervision published a consultation paper entitled “Review of the Credit
Valuation Adjustment Risk Framework.” Credit valuation adjustment, or CVA, is an adjustment to the fair valueof derivative instruments to account for counterparty credit risk. The proposals are designed to ensure that allimportant factors of CVA risk and CVA hedges are covered in the Basel regulatory capital standard, align thecapital standard with the fair value measurement of CVA employed under various accounting standards, andensure consistency with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s proposed revisions to the market risk
framework. The consultation paper proposed three approaches for CVA risk measurement—Internal Model
Approach, Standardized Approach and Basic Approach. Depending on the final designs and calibrations, theserevisions and reforms could change the regulatory capital calculation and the level of capital requirement foreach of the banks subject to the relevant standards, including us.
In December 2015, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision published a second consultation paper onrevisions to the Standardized Approach for credit risk. The proposed revisions are designed to establish a capitalframework that better balances simplicity and risk sensitivity, promote comparability by reducing variability inrisk-weighted assets across banks and jurisdictions, and ensure that the Standardized Approach constitutes asuitable alternative to and complement the Internal Ratings-Based approach. The consultation paper includes,
among other things, reintroduction of external ratings, a lower risk weight for small and medium-sizedenterprises, and higher credit conversion factors, which are percentages used to convert off-balance sheet items
to credit-equivalent risk assets, to be applied to unconditionally cancellable commitments for corporate
customers.
In January 2016, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision announced a revised capital standard formarket risk. The revised market risk framework, which will become effective January 1, 2019, revises theboundary between the trading book and banking book, the Internal Models Approach for market risk and theStandardized Approach for market risk, shifts from value-at-risk to an expected shortfall measure of risk understress, allows for supervisory approval and removal of internal models at the trading desk level, and incorporates
the risk of market illiquidity. We are continuously working to enhance our market risk framework both torespond to the revised framework as well as changes in the markets where we operate.
In March 2016, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision published a consultation paper entitled“Reducing variation in credit risk-weighted assets—constraints on the use of internal model approaches.” Theproposed changes include a number of complementary measures that aim to: (i) reduce the complexity of theregulatory framework and improve comparability, and (ii) address excessive variability in the capitalrequirements for credit risk. The consultation paper discusses, among other things, removing the option to use the
IRB approaches for certain exposures, adopting exposure-level, model-parameter floors for portfolios where the
IRB approaches remain available, and clarifying and substantially expanding the definition of “commitment.”
In March 2016, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision published a second consultation paper entitled“Standardized Measurement Approach for operational risk.” The Committee proposed to remove the Advanced
53

Measurement Approach (AMA) from the regulatory framework. The revised operational risk capital framework
will be based on a single non-model-based method for the estimation of operational risk capital, which is called
the Standardized Measurement Approach. The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision aims to promoteconsistency and comparability in operational risk capital measurement by combining financial statement
information and banks’ internal loss experience.
In April 2016, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has issued standards for Interest Rate Risk in
the Banking Book, or IRRBB. The standards revise the Committee’s 2004 Principles for the management andsupervision of interest rate risk, which set out supervisory expectations for a bank’s identification, measurement,
monitoring and control of IRRBB as well as their supervision. The key enhancements for a bank’s IRRBB
management processes are in areas such as the development of interest rate shock scenarios, as well as key
behavioral and modelling assumptions to be considered by banks in their measurement of IRRBB; bank’s total
capital to 15% of a bank’s Tier 1 capital. The revised standards are expected to be implemented by the calendar
year 2018.
Inspection and reporting. By evaluating banks’ systems of self-assessment, inspecting their accounts andreviewing their compliance with laws and regulations, the FSA monitors the financial soundness of banks,
including the status and performance of their control systems for business activities. The FSA applies the
Financial Inspection Rating System, or FIRST, to major banks. By providing inspection results in the form ofgraded evaluations (i.e., ratings), the FSA expects this rating system to motivate financial institutions tovoluntarily improve their management and operations. Additionally, the FSA currently takes the “better
regulation” approach in its financial regulation and supervision. This consists of four pillars: (1) optimal
combination of rules-based and principles-based supervisory approaches, (2) timely recognition of priority issues
and effective responses, (3) encouraging voluntary efforts by financial firms and placing greater emphasis on
providing them with incentives, and (4) improving the transparency and predictability of regulatory actions, inpursuit of improvement of the quality of financial regulation and supervision.
In addition, the FSA’s current policy for monitoring financial institutions places a greater emphasis on(i) ending Japan’s deflation and building an economic growth cycle, and (ii) maintaining the soundness andintegrity of the financial system and financial institutions so as to ensure the availability of efficient and stablefinancial services in Japan. Under this policy, the FSA is expected to increase monitoring of, and communication
with, financial institutions, particularly large global financial institutions, including us, and enhance cooperation
with financial regulatory bodies in other jurisdictions. The FSA, if necessary to secure the sound and appropriate
operations of a bank’s business, may request the submission of reports or materials from, or conduct an on-site
inspection of, the bank or the bank holding company.
Furthermore, the Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission of Japan inspects banks in connection
with their securities business as well as financial instruments business operators, such as securities firms. The
Bank of Japan also conducts inspections of banks. The Bank of Japan Law provides that the Bank of Japan andfinancial institutions may agree as to the form of inspection to be conducted by the Bank of Japan.
Laws limiting shareholdings of banks. The provisions of the Antimonopoly Act that generally prohibit abank from holding more than 5% of another company’s voting rights do not apply to a bank holding company.
However, the Banking Law prohibits a bank holding company and its subsidiaries from holding, on an
aggregated basis, more than 15% of the voting rights of companies other than those which can legally become
subsidiaries of bank holding companies. There have recently been enacted and proposed legislation to amendvarious financial regulation related laws, including the Banking Law, which includes certain deregulations on
restrictions for shareholdings by banks, as described above.
In addition, a bank is prohibited from holding shares in other companies exceeding the aggregate of its
Common Equity Tier 1 capital amount and Additional Tier 1 capital amount. For a detailed discussion on thecapital requirements for Japanese banks, see “Item 5.B. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—
Liquidity and Capital Review—Capital Adequacy.”54

Restrictions on exposures to single large counterparties. The Banking Law prohibits banks and bankholding companies (on a consolidated basis with their subsidiaries and affiliates) from having exposuresexceeding 25% of the sum of their Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital to a single counterparty (on a consolidated basis with
its subsidiaries and specially related parties as defined in the law). The Banking Law is expected to be amended
in light of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s final standard published in April 2014, which, among
other things, (1) requires all exposures to a counterparty or a group of connected counterparties equal to or
exceeding 10% of Tier 1 capital to be reported to national supervisors and (2) prohibits a large exposure
exceeding 25% of Tier 1 capital.
Financial Instruments and Exchange Act. The Financial Instruments and Exchange Act provides
protection for investors and also regulates sales of a wide range of financial instruments and services, requiring
financial institutions to improve their sales rules and strengthen compliance frameworks and procedures. Amongthe instruments that the Japanese banks deal in, derivatives, foreign currency-denominated deposits, and variableinsurance and annuity products are subject to regulations covered by the sales-related rules of conduct under thelaw.
Article 33 of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act generally prohibits banks from engaging insecurities transactions. However, bank holding companies and banks may, through a domestic or overseas
securities subsidiary, conduct all types of securities businesses, with appropriate approval from the FSA.
Similarly, registered banks are permitted to provide securities intermediation services and engage in certain othersimilar types of securities related transactions, including retail sales of investment funds and government andmunicipal bonds.
Subsidiaries of bank holding companies engaging in the securities business are subject to the supervision of
the FSA as financial instruments business operators. The Prime Minister has the authority to regulate thesecurities industry and securities companies, which authority is delegated to the Commissioner of the FSA under
the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission,an external agency of the FSA, is independent from the FSA’s other bureaus and is vested with the authority to
conduct day-to-day monitoring of the securities markets and to investigate irregular activities that hinder fairtrading of securities, including inspections of securities companies as well as banks in connection with theirsecurities business. Furthermore, the Commissioner of the FSA delegates certain authority to the Director
General of the Local Finance Bureau to inspect local securities companies and their branches. A violation of
applicable laws and ordinances may result in various administrative sanctions, including revocation ofregistration, suspension of business or an order to discharge any director or executive officer who has failed tocomply with applicable laws and ordinances. Securities companies are also subject to the rules and regulations of
the Japanese stock exchanges and the Japan Securities Dealers Association, a self-regulatory organization of
securities companies.
Act on Sales, etc. of Financial Instruments. The Act on Sales, etc. of Financial Instruments was enacted toprotect customers from incurring unexpected losses as a result of purchasing financial instruments. Under thisact, sellers of financial instruments have a duty to their potential customers to explain important matters such as
the nature and magnitude of risks involved regarding the financial instruments that they intend to sell. If a seller
fails to comply with the duty, there is a rebuttable presumption that the loss suffered by the customer due to theseller’s failure to explain is equal to the amount of decrease in the value of the purchased financial instruments.
Anti-money laundering laws. Under the Act on Prevention of Transfer of Criminal Proceeds, specified
business operators, including financial institutions, are required to verify customer identification data, preservetransaction records, and file Suspicions Transaction Reports with the FSA or other regulatory authorities in cases
where any asset received through their business operations is suspected of being criminal proceeds.
Most recent amendments to the Act, which became effective on October 1, 2016, included, among others,(1) enhancement of customer due diligence including identification of beneficial owners who are natural persons
55

controlling corporate customers through voting rights or other means, and (2) stricter requirements for the riskbased approach through assessment of money laundering and terrorist financing risks and application of adequate
resources effectively to mitigate such risks.
Acts concerning trust business conducted by financial institutions. Under the Trust Business Act, joint
stock companies that are licensed by the Prime Minister as trust companies, including non-financial companies,
are allowed to conduct trust business. In addition, under the Act on Provision, etc. of Trust Business by Financial
Institutions, banks and other financial institutions, as permitted by the Prime Minister, are able to conduct trust
business. The Trust Business Act provides for a separate type of registration for trustees who conduct only
administration type trust business. The Trust Business Act also provides for various duties imposed on the trustee
in accordance with and in addition to the Trust Act.
Regulatory developments relating to lending to small and medium-sized firms and others. The Act
Concerning Temporary Measures to Facilitate Financing for Small and Medium-sized Firms and Others required
financial institutions, among other things, to make an effort to reduce their customers’ burden of loan repayment
by employing methods such as modifying the term of loans at the request of eligible borrowers, including small
and medium-sized firms and individual home loan borrowers. This legislation also required financial institutions
to internally establish a system to implement the requirements of the legislation and periodically make public
disclosure of and report to the relevant authority on the status of implementation. Although this legislation
expired on March 31, 2013, the FSA continues to encourage financial institutions to continue to provide support
to small and medium-sized firms by revising the Inspection Manual, Supervisory Policy and Ordinance for
Enforcement of the Baking Law in order to encourage financial institutions to modify the terms of loans, provide
smooth financing, and take active roles in supporting operations of such firms.
Act on the Protection of Personal Information. With regard to protection of personal information, the Act
on the Protection of Personal Information requires, among other things, Japanese banking institutions to limit theuse of personal information to the stated purposes and to properly manage the personal information in theirpossession, and forbids them from providing personal information to third parties without consent. If a bankviolates certain provisions of the act, the FSA may advise or order the bank to take proper action. In addition, theBanking Law and the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act contain certain provisions with respect toappropriate handling of customer information.
Act on the Use of Personal Identification Numbers in the Administration of Government Affairs. Pursuant
to the Act on the Use of Personal Identification Numbers in the Administration of Government Affairs, whichbecame effective in October 2015, the Japanese government has adopted a Social Security and Tax Number
System, which is designed to (1) improve social security services, (2) enhance public convenience in obtaining
government services, and (3) increase the efficiency of the administration of government affairs. Under thissystem, a 12-digit unique number will be assigned to each resident of Japan to identify and manage information
relating to the resident for government service and tax purposes. Effective October 2015, financial institutions
are required to implement measures to ensure that such customer information will be protected frominappropriate disclosure and other unauthorized use.
Act Concerning Protection of Depositors from Illegal Withdrawals Made by Counterfeit or Stolen
Cards. The Act on Protection, etc. of Depositors and Postal Saving Holders from Unauthorized AutomatedWithdrawal, etc. Using Counterfeit Cards, etc. and Stolen Cards, etc. requires financial institutions to establish
internal systems to prevent illegal withdrawals of deposits made using counterfeit or stolen bank cards. The act
also requires a financial institution to compensate depositors for any amount illegally withdrawn using stolenbank cards except in certain cases, including those where the financial institution can verify that it acted in goodfaith without negligence and there was gross negligence on the part of the relevant depositor. In addition, the act
provides that illegal withdrawals with counterfeit bank cards are invalid unless the financial institution acted ingood faith without negligence and there was gross negligence on the part of the relevant account holder.
56

Government reforms to restrict maximum interest rates on consumer lending business. In December 2006,
the Diet passed legislation to reform the regulations relating to the consumer lending business, including
amendments to the Act Regulating the Receipt of Contributions, Receipt of Deposits and Interest Rates which,effective June 18, 2010, reduced the maximum permissible interest rate from 29.2% per annum to
20% per annum. The regulatory reforms also included amendments to the Law Concerning Lending Business
which, effective June 18, 2010, abolished the so-called “gray-zone interest.” Gray-zone interest refers to interest
rates exceeding the limits stipulated by the Interest Rate Restriction Act (between 15% per annum to
20% per annum depending on the amount of principal). Prior to June 18, 2010, gray-zone interests werepermitted under certain conditions set forth in the Law Concerning Lending Business. As a result of theregulatory reforms, all interest rates are now subject to the lower limits imposed by the Interest Rate Restriction
Act, compelling lending institutions, including our consumer finance subsidiaries and equity method investees, tolower the interest rates they charge borrowers. Furthermore, the new regulations, which became effective on
June 18, 2010, require, among other things, consumer finance companies to limit their lending to a single
customer to a maximum of one third of the customer’s annual income regardless of the customer’s repayment
capability.
In addition, as a result of decisions made by the Supreme Court of Japan prior to June 18, 2010, imposing
stringent requirements for charging such gray-zone interest rates, consumer finance companies have been
responding to borrowers’ claims for reimbursement of previously collected interest payments in excess of thelimits stipulated by the Interest Rate Restriction Act. See “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks
Related to Our Business—Because of our loans to consumers and our shareholdings in companies engaged inconsumer lending, changes in the business or regulatory environment for consumer finance companies in Japan
may further adversely affect our financial results.”
Act on Special Provisions of the Income Tax Act, the Corporation Tax Act and the Local Tax Act Incidental
to Enforcement of Tax Treaties. Pursuant to the Amendments to the Act on Special Provisions of the Income
Tax Act, the Corporation Tax Act and the Local Tax Act Incidental to Enforcement of Tax Treaties, whichbecame effective in January 2017, financial institutions are required to collect certain information from theiraccountholders, including jurisdictions of tax residence, and report such information to the National Tax Agency
in accordance with the Common Reporting Standard (CRS) as developed by the Organization for Economic
Co-operation and Development (OECD).
United States
As a result of our operations in the United States, we are subject to extensive U.S. federal and statesupervision and regulation.
Overall supervision and regulation. We are subject to supervision, regulation and examination withrespect to our U.S. operations by the FRB pursuant to the U.S. Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended,or the BHCA, and the International Banking Act of 1978, as amended, or the IBA, because we, BTMU and
MUTB are bank holding companies and foreign banking organizations, respectively, as defined pursuant to thosestatutes. The FRB functions as our “umbrella” supervisor under amendments to the BHCA effected by the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, which among other things:‰

prohibited further expansion of the types of activities in which bank holding companies, acting directlyor through non-bank subsidiaries, may engage;‰authorized qualifying bank holding companies to opt to become “financial holding companies,” andthereby acquire the authority to engage in an expanded list of activities; and‰modified the role of the FRB by specifying new relationships between the FRB and the functional
regulators of non-bank subsidiaries of both bank holding companies and financial holding companies.

The BHCA generally prohibits each of a bank holding company and a foreign banking organization thatmaintains branches or agencies in the United States from, directly or indirectly, acquiring more than 5% of the57

voting shares of any company engaged in non-banking activities in the United States unless the bank holding
company or foreign banking organization has elected to become a financial holding company, as discussed
above, or the FRB has determined, by order or regulation, that such activities are so closely related to banking as
to be a proper incident thereto and has granted its approval to the bank holding company or foreign banking
organization for such an acquisition. The BHCA also requires a bank holding company or foreign banking
organization that maintains branches or agencies in the United States to obtain the prior approval of an
appropriate federal banking authority before acquiring, directly or indirectly, the ownership of more than 5% of
the voting shares or control of any U.S. bank or bank holding company. In addition, under the BHCA, a
U.S. bank or a U.S. branch or agency of a foreign bank is prohibited from engaging in various tying
arrangements involving it or its affiliates in connection with any extension of credit, sale or lease of any property
or provision of any services.
In October 2008, we, BTMU, MUTB and MUAH initially attained financial holding company status, which
status is subject to periodic regulatory review. A financial holding company is authorized to engage in an
expanded list of activities deemed to be financial in nature or incidental to such financial activity as well as
certain specified non-banking activities deemed to be closely related to banking. In order to maintain the status asa financial holding company, a bank holding company must continue to meet certain standards established by the
FRB. Those standards require that a financial holding company exceed the minimum standards applicable tobank holding companies that have not elected to become financial holding companies. These higher standards
include meeting the “well capitalized” and “well managed” standards for financial holding companies as definedin the regulations of the FRB. Failure to meet these standards, due to inadequate capital management or
shortcomings in operations, results in restrictions on the ability to engage in expanded activities as a financial
holding company. In addition, a financial holding company must ensure that its U.S. banking subsidiaries meetcertain minimum standards under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977.
U.S. branches and agencies of subsidiary Japanese banks. Under the authority of the IBA, our banking
subsidiaries, BTMU and MUTB, operate five branches, two agencies and seven representative offices in the
United States. BTMU operates branches in Los Angeles, California; Chicago, Illinois; and two branches in
New York, New York; agencies in Houston and Dallas, Texas; and representative offices in Washington, D.C;
San Francisco, California; Seattle, Washington; Atlanta, Georgia; Minnetonka, Minnesota; Jersey City, New
Jersey; and Florence, Kentucky. MUTB operates a branch in New York, New York.
The IBA provides, among other things, that the FRB may examine U.S. branches and agencies of foreignbanks, and each branch and agency shall be subject to on-site examination by the appropriate federal or statebank supervisor as frequently as would a U.S. bank. The IBA also provides that if the FRB determines that aforeign bank is not subject to comprehensive supervision or regulation on a consolidated basis by the appropriate
authorities in its home country, or if there is reasonable cause to believe that the foreign bank or its affiliate hascommitted a violation of law or engaged in an unsafe or unsound banking practice in the United States, the FRB
may order the foreign bank to terminate activities conducted at a branch or agency in the United States.
U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks must be licensed, and are also supervised and regulated, by astate or by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, or the OCC, the federal regulator of U.S. nationalbanks. All of the branches and agencies of BTMU and MUTB in the United States are state-licensed. Under
U.S. federal banking laws, state-licensed branches and agencies of foreign banks may engage only in activities
that would be permissible for their federally-licensed counterparts, unless the FRB determines that the additional
activity is consistent with safe and sound practices. U.S. federal banking laws also subject state-licensed branches
and agencies to the single-borrower lending limits that apply to federal branches and agencies, which generally
are the same as the lending limits applicable to national banks, but are based on the capital of the entire foreignbank.
As an example of state supervision, the branches of BTMU and MUTB in New York are licensed by the
New York State Department of Financial Services, or DFS, pursuant to the New York Banking Law. Under the58

New York Banking Law and the Superintendent’s Regulations, each of BTMU and MUTB must maintain withbanks in the State of New York eligible assets as defined and in amounts determined by the Superintendent.
These New York branches must also submit written reports concerning their assets and liabilities and othermatters, to the extent required by the Superintendent, and are examined at periodic intervals by the DFS. In
addition, the Superintendent is authorized to take possession of the business and property of BTMU and MUTB
located in New York whenever events specified in the New York Banking Law occur.
U.S. banking subsidiaries. We indirectly own and control one U.S. bank: MUFG Union Bank, N.A. or
MUB (known prior to July 1, 2014 as Union Bank, N.A.), through BTMU and its subsidiary, MUAH, aregistered bank holding company.
MUB is a national bank subject to the supervision, examination and regulatory authority of the OCC
pursuant to the National Bank Act.
The OCC is an independent bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. In regulating national banks
such as MUB, the OCC has the power to examine those banks; approve or deny applications for new charters,
branches, capital, or other changes in corporate or banking structure; take supervisory actions against nationalbanks that do not comply with laws and regulations or that otherwise engage in unsound practices; remove
officers and directors, negotiate agreements to change banking practices, and issue cease and desist orders as wellas civil money penalties; and issue rules and regulations, legal interpretations, and corporate decisions governinginvestments, lending, and other practices. The OCC’s staff of bank examiners conducts on-site reviews andprovides sustained supervision of national banks. Examiners analyze loan and investment portfolios, funds
management, capital, earnings, liquidity, and sensitivity to market risk for national banks. Examiners also review
internal controls, internal and external audit, and compliance with law, and evaluate management’s ability toidentify and control risk.
In addition, the FDIC insures the deposits of MUB up to legally specified maximum amounts. In the eventof a failure of an FDIC-insured bank, the FDIC is virtually certain to be appointed as receiver, and would resolve
the failure under provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. In the liquidation or other resolution of a failed
FDIC-insured depository institution, deposits in its U.S. offices and other claims for administrative expenses andemployee compensation are afforded priority over other general unsecured claims, including deposits in offices
outside the United States, non-deposit claims in all offices and claims of a parent company. Moreover, underlongstanding FRB policy, a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for its
banking subsidiaries and to commit resources to support such banks.
Bank capital requirements and capital distributions. MUB is subject to applicable risk-based and leverage
capital guidelines issued by U.S. regulators for banks and bank holding companies. In addition, BTMU and
MUTB, as foreign banking organizations that have U.S. branches and agencies and that are controlled by us, aresubject to the FRB’s requirements that they be “well-capitalized” based on Japan’s risk based capital standards.
MUB, BTMU, MUTB, and MUAH are all “well capitalized” as defined under, and otherwise comply with, all
U.S. regulatory capital requirements applicable to them. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Improvement Act of 1991, or FDICIA, provides, among other things, for expanded regulation of insured
depository institutions, including banks, and their parent holding companies. As required by FDICIA, the federalbanking agencies have established five capital tiers ranging from “well capitalized” to “criticallyundercapitalized” for insured depository institutions. As an institution’s capital position deteriorates, the federalbanking regulators may take progressively stronger actions, such as further restricting affiliate transactions,activities, asset growth or interest payments. In addition, FDICIA generally prohibits an insured depository
institution from making capital distributions, including the payment of dividends, or the payment of any
management fee to its holding company, if the insured depository institution would be undercapitalized after
making such distribution or paying such dividend or fee.
The availability of dividends from insured depository institutions in the United States is limited by various
other statutes and regulations. The National Bank Act and other federal laws prohibit the payment of dividends
59

by a national bank under various circumstances and limit the amount a national bank can pay without the priorapproval of the OCC. In addition, state-chartered banking institutions are subject to dividend limitations imposedby applicable federal and state laws.
Other regulated U.S. subsidiaries. Our non-bank subsidiaries that engage in securities-related activities in
the United States are regulated by appropriate functional regulators, such as the SEC, any self-regulatoryorganizations of which they are members, and the appropriate state regulatory agencies. These non-banksubsidiaries are required to meet separate minimum capital standards as imposed by those regulatory authorities.
Anti-Money Laundering Initiatives and the USA PATRIOT Act. A major focus of U.S. governmental
policy relating to financial institutions in recent years has been aimed at preventing money laundering andterrorist financing. The USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 substantially broadened the scope of U.S. anti-money
laundering laws and regulations by imposing significant new compliance and due diligence obligations, creating
new crimes and penalties and expanding the extra-territorial jurisdiction of the United States. The U.S.
Department of the Treasury has issued a number of regulations that impose obligations on financial institutions tomaintain appropriate policies, procedures and controls to detect, prevent and report money laundering andterrorist financing, and to verify the identity of their customers. In addition, the bank regulatory agencies
carefully scrutinize the adequacy of an institution’s policies, procedures and controls. As a result, there have been
an increased number of regulatory sanctions and law enforcement authorities have been taking a more active rolein enforcing these laws. Failure of a financial institution to maintain and implement adequate policies, procedures
and controls to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing could in some cases have serious legal andreputational consequences for the institution, including the incurrence of expenses to enhance the relevant
programs, the imposition of limitations on the scope of their operations and the imposition of fines and othermonetary penalties. See “Item 3.D. Risk Factors—We may become subject to regulatory actions or other legal
proceedings relating to our transactions or other aspects of our operations, which could result in significant
financial losses, restrictions on our operations and damage to our reputation.”
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In recent years, U.S. regulatory and enforcement agencies including the
SEC and the U.S. Department of Justice have significantly increased their enforcement efforts of the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act, or the FCPA. The FCPA prohibits U.S. securities issuers, U.S. domestic entities, andparties doing substantial business within the United States (including their shareholders, directors, agents,
officers, and employees) from making improper payments to non-U.S. government officials in order to obtain or
retain business. The FCPA also requires U.S. securities issuers to keep their books and records in detail,accurately, and in such a way that they fairly reflect all transactions and dispositions of assets. Those
enforcement efforts have targeted a wide range of U.S. and foreign-based entities and have been based on a broad
variety of alleged fact patterns, and in a number of cases have resulted in the imposition of substantial criminaland civil penalties or in agreed payments in settlement of alleged violations. Failure of a financial institution
doing business in the United States to maintain adequate policies, procedures, internal controls, and books andrecords on a global basis that address compliance with FCPA requirements could in some cases have serious
legal and reputational consequences for the institution, including the incurrence of expenses to enhance therelevant programs and the imposition of fines and other monetary penalties.
Regulatory Reform Legislation. In response to the global financial crisis and the perception that lax
supervision of the financial industry in the United States may have been a contributing cause, legislation
designed to reform the system for supervision and regulation of financial firms doing business in the UnitedStates, the so-called Dodd-Frank Act, was signed into law on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act is complex andextensive in its coverage and contains a wide range of provisions that would affect financial institutions operatingin the United States, including our U.S. operations. Included among these provisions are sweeping reforms
designed to reduce systemic risk presented by very large financial firms, promote enhanced supervision,
regulation, and prudential standards for financial firms, establish comprehensive supervision of financial
markets, impose new limitations on permissible financial institution activities and investments, expand regulationof the derivatives markets, protect consumers and investors from financial abuse, and provide the government
60

with the tools needed to manage a financial crisis. Many aspects of the legislation require subsequent regulatory
action by supervisory agencies for full implementation. Key provisions that impact our operations are
summarized below. However certain regulatory rules under the Dodd-Frank Act are not yet finalized, require
further interpretive guidance by the relevant supervisory agencies, or do not yet require us to fully implement
compliance procedures. Accordingly, while the legislation has an impact on our operations, including theimposition of significant compliance costs, we are unable to assess with certainty the full degree of impact of the
Dodd-Frank Act on our operations at this time.
Among the components of the Dodd-Frank Act that have impacted or may impact our operations are theprovisions relating to enhanced prudential standards, including capital, liquidity and structural requirements, the“Volcker Rule,” derivatives regulation, credit reporting, resolution plans, incentive-based compensation, theestablishment of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and debit interchange fees. Although certain of theregulatory rules regarding the foregoing components are still pending, as noted above, based on information
currently available to us, other than the Volcker Rule and derivatives regulations as discussed below, the impactof these components is expected to be mainly limited to our U.S. operations and not to be material to us on aconsolidated basis. We intend to continue to monitor developments relating to the Dodd-Frank Act and thepotential impact on our activities inside and outside of the United States.
With respect to the Dodd-Frank Act provisions related to enhanced prudential standards, in February 2014
the FRB issued final rules that established enhanced prudential standards for the U.S. operations of foreignbanking organizations such as MUFG. These rules required us to organize by July 1, 2016 all of our U.S. bankand non-bank subsidiaries, with certain limited exceptions, under a U.S. IHC, that is subject to U.S. capitalrequirements and enhanced prudential standards comparable to those applicable to top-tier U.S. bank holding
companies of the same size. Under these rules, we were required to change the structure of our U.S. operations,
including the manner in which we oversee and manage those operations, and may be required to inject additional
capital into our U.S. operations. We have designated MUAH as our IHC.
Our existing U.S. bank holding company subsidiary, MUAH, is subject to various U.S. prudential
requirements and has become subject to others with the designation of MUAH as our IHC as of July 1, 2016.
MUAH was previously subject to risk-based and leverage capital requirements, liquidity requirements, and otherenhanced prudential standards applicable to large U.S. bank holding companies. MUAH was also subject tocapital planning and stress testing requirements. MUAH is now subject to the capital planning and stress testing
requirements and certain enhanced prudential standards applicable to IHCs. On June 22, 2017, the FRB released
the results of the 2017 Dodd-Frank Act stress tests. It found that, even in the severely adverse economic stresstest scenario, MUAH would maintain capital ratios well above the required minimum levels. On June 28, 2017,
the FRB announced that it had no objections to the capital plan submitted by MUAH as part of the 2017
Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review, or CCAR. The FRB announced early in 2017 that MUAH would
not be subject to the qualitative portion of the CCAR.
The FRB has the authority to examine an IHC and any of its subsidiaries. U.S. leverage requirements
applicable to the IHC will take effect beginning in January 2018. MUAH is subject to a requirement to maintainan LCR equal to at least 100% based on total projected net cash outflows over a 30-calendar day period,
effectively using net cash outflow assumptions equal to 70% of the outflow assumptions prescribed forinternationally active banking organizations. Our combined U.S. operations, including BTMU’s and MUTB’s
branches, are also subject to certain requirements related to liquidity and risk management.
The Volcker Rule was issued in final form by the Federal Reserve in December 2013. Under the Volcker
Rule, we are required to cease conducting certain proprietary trading activities, which means trading in securities
and financial instruments for our own account, subject to certain exceptions, including market-making, hedging,and underwriting activities if such activities are conducted within a rigorous compliance framework. We are also
restricted from engaging in certain activities regarding hedge funds and private equity funds, or covered funds.
While the Volcker Rule excludes restrictions on such activities conducted solely outside of the United States, the61regulatory definition of such exempted activities is narrow and complex and in some cases requires further
clarification. Our proprietary trading and covered funds activities are generally executed outside of theUnited States, but certain activities within the United States could potentially have fallen within the scope of theRule. We have undertaken steps that we believe are appropriate to bring our activities and investments into
compliance with the Rule. Given the limited amount of restricted activities in which we previously engaged
within the United States, we do not expect the implementation of the Volcker Rule to be material to ouroperations.
U.S. regulators continue to issue final regulations and regulatory determinations governing swaps andderivatives markets as contemplated by the Dodd-Frank Act. To date, BTMU and Mitsubishi UFJ Securities
International, plc, have registered as swap dealers with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or
CFTC. Depending on the finalization of regulations and regulatory determinations governing swaps andderivatives markets under the Dodd-Frank Act, as well as the activities of our other subsidiaries located insideand outside of the United States, our other subsidiaries may have to register as swap dealers with, or be subject tothe regulations of, the CFTC and/or SEC. Regulation of swap dealers by the CFTC and SEC imposes numerous
corporate governance, business conduct, capital, margin, reporting, clearing, execution, and other regulatory
requirements on our operations, which may adversely impact our derivatives businesses and make us lesscompetitive than those competitors that are not subject to the same regulations. Although many regulations
applicable to swap dealers are already in effect, it is difficult to assess the full impact of these requirements
because some of the most important regulatory determinations have not yet been implemented or finalized. For
example, U.S. regulators have adopted guidance and rules on the application of U.S. regulations to activities ofregistered swap dealers outside of the United States. The extraterritorial application of swap dealer regulatory
requirements imposes significant operational and compliance burdens on our swaps activities outside of theUnited States.
On March 16, 2016, the FRB issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking regarding single counterparty credit
limits (“SCCL”) for large banking organizations. The SCCL re-proposal is considered the last major piece ofregulatory action needed to implement Section 165(e) of the Dodd-Frank Act. Specifically, Section 165(e) was a
response to the concern that failure or financial distress of one large, interconnected financial institution could
cascade through the U.S. financial system and impair the financial condition of that firm’s counterparties,
including other large, interconnected firms. Section 165(e) generally, and the SCCL re-proposal specifically,
seek to mitigate this risk by limiting the aggregate exposure among such financial institutions and theircounterparties. If the re-proposal is adopted in its current form as final, it is likely to have an impact on us;
however, as the re-proposal is not yet finalized, we cannot fully assess that impact. We filed comments on there-proposal in June 2016 and will continue to monitor developments as they progress.
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act. The Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act was enacted in
March 2010 and contains provisions commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or
FATCA. The U.S. Treasury, acting through the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, issued the final regulationsof FATCA in January 2013.
The FATCA framework has been expanded with the introduction of Intergovernmental Agreements between
the U.S. Treasury and foreign governments, which pursue a framework for intergovernmental cooperation tofacilitate the implementation of FATCA. The United States and Japan have entered into an Intergovernmental
Agreement.
We have developed internal procedures and processes that we believe address the regulatory requirements
under FATCA. However, doing so has required us to develop extensive systems capabilities and internal
processes to identify and report U.S. account holders who are subject to FATCA requirements, which has been acomplex and costly process requiring significant internal resources. If our procedures and processes are
determined not to be adequate to meet the requirements of FATCA, we could potentially be subject to serious

62legal and reputational consequences, including the imposition of withholding taxes on certain amounts payable tous from U.S. sources, and could be required to expend additional resources to enhance our systems, proceduresand processes and take other measures in response to such consequences.
Capital Adequacy. MUAH and MUB are required to maintain minimum capital ratios in accordance withrules issued by the U.S. Federal banking agencies. In July 2013, the U.S. Federal banking agencies issued final
rules to implement the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidance for U.S. banking
organizations, or U.S. Basel III. These rules establish more restrictive capital definitions, create additional
categories and higher risk weightings for certain asset classes and off-balance sheet exposures, higher minimum
capital and leverage ratios and capital conservation buffers that will be added to the minimum capitalrequirements. These rules supersede the U.S. federal banking agencies’ general risk-based capital rules generally
referred to as Basel I, the advanced approaches rules generally referred to as Basel II, which are applicable tocertain large banking organizations, and leverage rules, and are subject to certain transition provisions. MUAH
became subject to the U.S. Basel III capital rules in January 2015, with certain provisions subject to a phase-in
period, while MUB continues to be subject to the U.S. Basel III capital rules which became effective foradvanced approaches institutions on January 1, 2014. The U.S. Basel III capital rules are scheduled to be
substantially phased in by January 1, 2019.
Both MUAH and MUB are subject to the following regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios: (1) 4.5%of Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio, (2) 6.0% of Tier 1 capital ratio and (3) 8.0% of total capital ratio. Failure
to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary,actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on MUAH’s consolidated financial
statements.
In addition to these regulatory minimum ratio requirements, MUAH and MUB will become subject to a
fully phased-in capital conservation buffer requirement of 2.5%. The phase-in period for the capital conservationbuffer commenced on January 1, 2016 at 0.625% with applicable rates increasing in each successive January
until its full implementation on January 1, 2019. MUAH and MUB are also subject to a Tier 1 leverage ratio
regulatory minimum requirement of 4% and a well-capitalized prompt corrective action standard of 5%.
MUB has previously opted into the advanced approaches capital rules. However, MUB is currently in
discussion with the OCC to opt out of the advanced approaches capital rules. An advanced approaches opt-inbank will become subject to the supplementary leverage ratio on January 1, 2018. The supplementary leverage
ratio will impose an additional minimum leverage requirement of 3%, with the expectation that this ratio will
increase. An opt-in bank may also be subject to an additional counter cyclical capital buffer requirement ranging
from 0.0% to 2.5% of risk-weighted assets if fully implemented. This additional capital buffer will be imposed
upon the determination of the appropriate U.S. banking agency that financial markets are experiencing a periodof excessive ease in credit markets associated with a material increase in credit system-wide risk, with the
maximum buffer reflecting an assessment of elevated financial-system vulnerabilities. The consequences for an
opt-in bank of falling below these buffers will be the imposition of limitations on the percentage of earnings that
may be paid in the subsequent financial year as capital distributions or as discretionary bonus payments to
executive officers.
In October 2015, the FRB proposed long-term debt and TLAC requirements for U.S. globally systemicallyimportant bank holding companies and U.S. IHCs of non-U.S. globally systemically important banks, including
MUAH. In December 2016, the FRB finalized rules imposing such requirements. Under the final rules, a covered
IHC such as MUAH would be required to maintain a minimum amount of eligible long-term debt issued to a
non-U.S. parent entity that could be cancelled or converted to equity in order to absorb losses and recapitalize the
IHC’s operating subsidiaries at or near the point of resolution. A covered IHC would also be required to maintaina minimum level of eligible TLAC issued to a non-U.S. parent entity consisting of regulatory capital and eligible
long-term debt and maintain related buffers consisting of Common Equity Tier 1 capital. In addition, an IHC
would be restricted from issuing short-term debt and certain other types of liabilities that are structurally senior to63eligible long-term debt. MUAH will be required to comply with these rules by January 1, 2019. Pursuant to 12
CFR § 252.164(a), we have certified to the FRB that we plan to follow an SPE resolution strategy, and that
MUAH would therefore be considered a “non-resolution covered IHC.”

Resources—Capital Adequacy” and Note 22 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewherein this Annual Report.
Disclosure pursuant to Section 13(r) of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 13(r) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) requires an issuer to disclose
whether it or any of its affiliates knowingly engaged in certain activities, transactions or dealings relating to Iranor with natural persons or entities designated by the U.S. government under specified Executive Orders. The
scope of activities that must be reported includes activities not prohibited by U.S. law and conducted outside theUnited States in compliance with applicable local law.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, one of our non-U.S. subsidiaries engaged in business activities
with entities in, or affiliated with, Iran, including counterparties owned or controlled by the Iranian government.
Specifically, our non-U.S. banking subsidiary, BTMU, issued letters of credit and guarantees and provided
remittance and other settlement services mainly in connection with customer transactions related to the purchaseand exportation of Iranian crude oil to Japan, and in some cases, in connection with other petroleum-relatedtransactions with Iran by its customers. These transactions did not involve U.S. dollars nor clearing services of
U.S. banks for the settlement of payments. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the aggregate interest andfee income relating to these transactions was less than ¥130 million, representing less than 0.005 percent of our
total interest and fee income. Some of these transactions were conducted through the use of non-U.S. dollar
correspondent accounts and other similar settlement accounts maintained with BTMU outside the United States
by Iranian financial institutions and other entities in, or affiliated with, Iran. In addition to such accounts, BTMU
receives deposits in Japan from, and provides settlement services in Japan to, fewer than ten Iranian governmentrelated entities and fewer than 100 Iranian government-related individuals such as Iranian diplomats, andmaintains settlement accounts outside the United States for certain other financial institutions specified in
Executive Order 13382, which settlement accounts were frozen in accordance with applicable laws andregulations. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the average aggregate balance of deposits held in theseaccounts represented less than 0.1 percent of the average balance of our total deposits. The fee income from thetransactions attributable to these account holders was less than ¥7 million, representing less than 0.001 percent of
our total fee income. BTMU also holds loans that were arranged prior to changes in applicable laws andregulations to borrowers in, or affiliated with, Iran, including entities owned by the Iranian government, theoutstanding balance of which was less than ¥200 million, representing less than 0.001 percent of our total loans,
as of March 31, 2017. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the aggregate gross interest and fee income
relating to these loan transactions was less than ¥50 million, representing less than 0.005 percent of our totalinterest and fee income.
BTMU will continue to participate in these types of transactions. Following the international relaxation of
sanctions against Iran in January 2016, the balance of non-U.S. dollar correspondent accounts described above at
BTMU has increased, but BTMU recognizes that such transactions remain subject to compliance with applicable
U.S. and Japanese regulations and remaining Japanese and international sanctions.

Introduction
We are the holding company for The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., or BTMU, Mitsubishi UFJ Trustand Banking Corporation, or MUTB, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities Co., Ltd., or MUMSS (throughMitsubishi UFJ Securities Holdings Co., Ltd., or MUSHD, an intermediate holding company), Mitsubishi UFJ
NICOS Co., Ltd. and other subsidiaries. Through our subsidiaries and affiliated companies, we engage in a broad
range of financial businesses and services, including commercial banking, investment banking, trust assets andasset management services, securities businesses, and credit card businesses, and provide related services toindividuals and corporate customers in Japan and abroad.
Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to the Fiscal Year Ended March 31,
2016
Net income attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group decreased ¥599.6 billion to ¥202.7 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥802.3 billion for the previous fiscal year. This decrease is primarily due
to a decrease in non-interest income reflecting lower trading account profits and foreign exchange gains. Our
business and results of operations, as well as our assets and liabilities, continued to be affected by fluctuations ininterest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Long-term interest rates in the United States were on generally
rising trends after the U.S. presidential election in mid-November 2016 through March 2017, negatively affecting
the fair values of U.S. Treasury bonds and our net profits on interest rate contracts. In Japan, the yields on
10-year Japanese government bonds rose from negative rates to around 0.05% from mid-November 2016 to
March 2017, negatively affecting our net profits on interest rate contracts. While the Japanese yen appreciatedagainst the U.S. dollar from April 2016 to mid-November 2016, the Japanese yen depreciated against the U.S.
dollar from mid-November 2016 to March 2017, which adversely affected our foreign exchange gains.

Our net income attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017
mainly reflected the following:
Net interest income. Net interest income decreased ¥40.3 billion to ¥2,221.1 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017 from ¥2,261.4 billion for the previous fiscal year. The decrease was primarily attributable
to a decrease in domestic interest income due to lower balances of our domestic loan portfolio and Japanese
government bond portfolio and lower average interest rates in Japan. The decrease in net interest income wasalso attributable to an increase in interest expense due to higher U.S. dollar funding rates in Japan and additional
issuances of bonds in the domestic market. These negative factors were partially offset by the positive impact ofhigher interest rates on foreign loans and higher average balances of foreign trading assets, particularly U.S.
Treasury bonds.
Provision for credit losses. Provision for credit losses increased ¥21.8 billion to ¥253.7 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥231.9 billion for the previous fiscal year. The provision for credit losses
69

recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 mainly reflected the deterioration in the business and financial
performance of a large borrower in the domestic electronics manufacturing industry and a large foreign borrower
in the trading industry.
Non-interest income. Total non-interest income decreased ¥1,211.0 billion to ¥1,196.7 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥2,407.7 billion for the previous fiscal year. This decrease in non-interest
income was mainly due to a decrease in net trading account profits, reflecting increases in interest rates in the
United States and Japan. We also recorded net foreign exchange losses due to fluctuations in the exchange rates
between the Japanese yen and other major currencies.
Non-interest expense. Total non-interest expense decreased ¥382.9 billion to ¥2,891.6 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥3,274.5 billion for the previous fiscal year. Although we recorded a
provision for off-balance sheet credit instruments in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, non-interest expensedecreased in comparison to the prior year when we recognized an impairment on goodwill as well as an
impairment of intangible assets.
Core Business Groups

The increase in total assets of ¥4.63 trillion is primarily due to higher volumes of domestic cash and duefrom banks, partially offset by a decrease in foreign trading account assets.
Total loans outstanding as of March 31, 2017 decreased ¥4.58 trillion to ¥118.21 trillion from¥122.79 trillion as of March 31, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our loans outstanding togovernmental institutions in Japan.
Total investment securities decreased ¥2.42 trillion to ¥43.23 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from¥45.65 trillion as of March 31, 2016, primarily due to a decrease of ¥2.14 trillion in available-for-sale securities.
The decrease in available-for-sale securities was mainly due to sales and redemptions of Japanese government
bonds.
Trading account assets as of March 31, 2017 decreased ¥9.51 trillion to ¥41.32 trillion as of March 31, 2017from ¥50.83 trillion as of March 31, 2016. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in the volume of
U.S. Treasury bonds held by our commercial banking subsidiaries, particularly towards the end of the fiscal year,
to manage the risk of losses resulting from declines in the values of U.S. Treasury bonds in a rising interest rateenvironment in the United States.
Cash and due from banks increased ¥17.02 trillion to ¥25.68 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from¥8.66 trillion as of March 31, 2016, mainly due to an increase in the volume of deposits with the Bank of Japan.

Total liabilities increased ¥4.71 trillion to ¥282.42 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥277.71 trillion as ofMarch 31, 2016. The increase was mainly due to increases in domestic deposits and long-term debt. The increasein domestic deposits was mainly due to an increase in deposits from our corporate clients. Long-term debt
increased due to additional issuances of bonds by us to meet TLAC and other Basel III requirements and anincrease in long-term borrowings by our banking subsidiaries to diversify their funding sources. These increases
were partially offset by a decrease in payables under repurchase agreements as investor preference shifted frominvestments in money markets to deposits in the near-zero interest rate environment in Japan.

Capital Ratios
MUFG’s Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio, Tier 1 capital ratio and Total capital ratio calculated inaccordance with Basel III requirements as adopted by the FSA, were 11.76%, 13.36% and 15.85% as ofMarch 31, 2017, respectively, compared to 11.63%, 13.24% and 16.01% as of March 31, 2016, respectively.
MUFG was required to maintain minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratiosof 4.50%, 6.00% and 8.00%, respectively, plus a capital conservation buffer of 1.25% and a G-SIB surcharge of
0.75% as of March 31, 2017, and plus a capital conservation buffer of 0.625% and a G-SIB surcharge of 0.375%
as of March 31, 2016. The underlying figures for these ratios were calculated in accordance with Japanesebanking regulations based on information derived from our consolidated financial statements prepared inaccordance with Japanese GAAP.
Leverage Ratios
MUFG’s leverage ratio in accordance with Basel III as of March 31, 2017, was 4.81%, compared to 4.79%

Business Environment
Through our subsidiaries and affiliated companies, we engage in a broad range of financial businesses andservices, including commercial banking, investment banking, trust assets and asset management services,
securities businesses and credit card businesses, and provide related services to individuals primarily in Japan72

and the United States and to corporate customers around the world. Our results of operations and financial
condition are exposed to changes in various external economic factors, including:‰

general economic conditions,‰interest rates,‰

foreign currency exchange rates, and‰stock and real estate prices.

General Economic Conditions
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the global economy stayed on a moderately improving trend.
Uncertainties grew, however, concerning future global economic trends in light of recent changes in economic
and monetary policies and geopolitical developments in various jurisdictions, which have contributed to higher
volatility in the financial market.
Japan’s economic growth remained weak with the quarter-on-quarter real GDP growth rate being 0.4% for
the quarter ended June 30, 2016 and 0.3% for each of the quarters ended June 30, 2016, September 30, 2016 andMarch 31, 2017. The year-over-year real GDP growth rate was 0.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, 1.1%
for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, 1.6% for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 and 1.3% for thequarter ended March 31, 2017. Private residential investment and export contributed to the GDP growth,
although private consumption and corporate capital investment lacked momentum. Japan’s Consumer Price
Index, or CPI, fluctuated between negative 0.2% and positive 0.5% on a month-on-month basis and between
negative 0.5% and positive 0.5% on a year-over-year basis in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. During thesame period, the unemployment rate in Japan remained low, declining to 2.8% for February 2017. According to
Teikoku Databank, a Japanese research institution, the number of companies that filed for legal bankruptcy inJapan for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was 8,153, a decrease of 3% from the previous fiscal year. The
total liabilities of companies that filed for legal bankruptcy in the twelve months ended March 31, 2017 were
¥1,946 billion, an increase of 2.1% from the previous fiscal year. The Japanese economy remains subject to thecontinuing deflationary pressure, increasing public debt and various other factors that could adversely affect its
economic conditions.
The U.S. economy expanded with the quarter-on-quarter real GDP growth rate being 1.4% for the quarter
ended June 30, 2016, 3.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, 2.1% for the quarter ended December 31,
2016 and 1.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. The year-over-year real GDP growth rate was 1.3% for thequarter ended June 30, 2016, 1.7% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and 2.0% for each of the quarters
ended December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017. Improvements in employment statistics contributed to stronger
private consumption and private residential investment. The long-term prospects of the U.S. economy remain
uncertain in light of the relative lack of strength in some recent economic indicators and the changes in thegovernment’s economic and trade policies since the Trump administration took office in January 2017.
The Eurozone’s economic growth continued at a slow rate with the quarter-on-quarter real GDP growth rate
being 0.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, 0.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, 0.5% for thequarter ended December 31, 2016 and 0.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. The year-over-year real GDP
growth rate was 1.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, 1.8% for each of the quarters ended September 30 and
December 31, 2016 and 1.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. During the same period, the unemployment
rate in the Eurozone declined to 9.4% for March 2017. There are still uncertainties in the Eurozone economy,
including the process and ramifications of the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union and thelarge accumulation of non-performing loans in some European peripheral countries.
In Asia excluding Japan, economic growth stagnated. China’s quarter-on-quarter real GDP growth rate was
1.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, 1.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, 1.7% for the quarter
ended December 31, 2016 and 1.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. China’s year-over-year real GDP73

growth rate was 6.7% for each of the quarters ended June 30 and September 30, 2016, 6.8% for the quarter ended
December 31, 2016 and 6.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. Thailand’s quarter-on-quarter real GDP
growth rate was 1.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, 0.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, 0.5%
for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 and 1.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. Thailand’s
year-over-year real GDP growth rate was 3.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, 3.2% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2016, 3.0% for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 and 3.3% for the quarter ended March 31,
2017. The Asian economy has depended to a large extent on economic conditions in China, where the economic
growth has recently decelerated. Thailand’s economic growth was also adversely affected by weaker private
consumption after the passing of the King of Thailand.
Interest Rates
Interest rates in Japan decreased to historically low levels with the 10-year Japanese government bond yield
declining to near negative 0.27% in July 2016. The Bank of Japan maintained a “quantitative and qualitative
monetary easing with negative interest rates” policy during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. Under thispolicy, the Bank of Japan increased its aggregate holding of Japanese government bonds by approximately ¥80
trillion each year and applied a negative interest rate of minus 0.1% to the “Policy-Rate Balances,” which are apart of current account amounts held by financial institutions at the Bank of Japan, aiming to achieve the pricestability target of 2%. In September 2016, the Bank of Japan announced a new “quantitative and qualitative
monetary easing with yield curve control” policy, adding to its monetary policy a Japanese government bondpurchase program with an aim to keep the yield of 10-year Japanese government bonds around zero percent. The
yield on 10-year Japanese government bonds rose to around zero percent immediately prior to the announcementof the Bank of Japan’s new monetary policy and declined to negative 0.09% in September 2016. Following thepresidential election in the United States in November 2016, the yield of 10-year Japanese government bondsrose above zero percent and reached 0.1% in February 2017. The yield currently fluctuates around 0.06%.
In the United States, the FRB raised the target range for the federal funds rate first to between 0.5% to
0.75% in December 2016 and then to between 0.75% to 1.00% in March 2017. The 10-year U.S. Treasury bondyield decreased from 1.76% at the end of March 2016 to 1.36% in July 2016. The yield increased to around 2.6%
in November 2016 as market expectations grew in favor of the new administration’s economic policy. In June
2017, the FRB increased the target range for the federal funds rate to between 1.00% and 1.25%. The yieldcurrently fluctuates around 2.2%.
The yield on 10-year German Bunds was on a generally declining trend during the first half of the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017, with the yield decreasing from 0.15% at the end of March 2016 to negative 0.2% in
July 2016. In November 2016, the yield rose and has since ranged between 0.2% and 0.5%, currently fluctuatingaround 0.4%. The yield on 10-year French Obligations Assimilables du Tre´sor, or OATs, was on a similar trend,with the yield decreasing from 0.485% at the end of March 2016 to 0.1% in July 2016. Since November 2016,
the yield has been in the range from 0.5% to 1.15%, currently fluctuating around 0.7%.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
The Japanese yen was on a generally appreciating trend against the U.S. dollar for the first half of the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017, with the Japanese yen appreciating from ¥112.57 to the U.S. dollar as of March 31,
2016 to ¥100 to the U.S. dollar in August 2016. The trend reversed after the U.S. presidential election in
November 2016. The Japanese yen depreciated to ¥118 to the U.S. dollar following the FRB’s announcement of
the rate increase in December 2016. The exchange rate currently fluctuates around ¥112 to the U.S. dollar.
Similarly, the Japanese yen was on a generally appreciating trend against the euro for the first half of the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017, with the Japanese yen appreciating from ¥128.11 to the euro as of March 31, 2016 to¥111.11 to the euro in July 2016. The trend reversed in November 2016, and the exchange rate currently
fluctuates around ¥128 to the euro.

The Japanese yen was on a generally appreciating trend against the Thai baht for the first half of the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017, with the Japanese yen appreciating from ¥3.20 to the Thai baht as of March 31, 2016to ¥2.85 to the Thai baht in July 2016. Since November 2016, the Japanese yen has been on a depreciating trend
against the Thai baht, currently fluctuating around ¥3.3 to the Thai baht.
Stock and Real Estate Prices
The closing price of the Nikkei Stock Average, which is the average of 225 blue chip stocks listed on theTokyo Stock Exchange, increased from ¥16,758.67 on March 31, 2016 to ¥18,909.26 on March 31, 2017. During
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the Nikkei Stock Average declined to around ¥15,000 in June 2016 following
the United Kingdom’s European Union membership referendum, and increased after the U.S. presidential electionin November 2016. On June 2, 2017, the closing price of the Nikkei Stock Average exceeded ¥20,000 for the firsttime since December 2015. The Nikkei Stock Average currently fluctuates around ¥20,000.
According to a land price survey conducted by the Japanese government, the average residential land priceand the average commercial land price in Japan increased 0.022% and 1.4%, respectively, in the calendar year
2016. In the three major metropolitan areas of Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya, the average residential land priceincreased 0.5% and the average commercial land price also increased 3.3% in the calendar year 2016. In the local
regions of Japan, which consist of regions other than the three major metropolitan areas, the average residential
land price declined 0.4% and the average commercial land price also declined 0.1% in the calendar year 2016.
Recent Developments
During and after the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, we continued to pursue a strategy to improve ouroperational efficiency and financial performance and achieve sustainable growth. We plan to continue tostrengthen our management structure, while selectively reviewing and considering growth opportunities that will
enhance our global competitiveness. We will also monitor regulatory developments and pursue prudent
transactions that will create a strong capital structure to enable us to contribute to the real economy, both
domestically and globally, as a provider of a stable source of funds and high quality financial services. In order to
respond to the increasingly complex market and legal risks, we continue to endeavor to enhance our complianceand internal control frameworks.
Implementation of Share Repurchase Programs and Cancellation of Purchased Shares
During May and June 2017, we repurchased 141,158,900 shares of our common stock for ¥99,999,941,022
under a share repurchase program that was adopted in May 2017 and completed in June 2017. Under the
program, we were authorized by the Board of Directors to repurchase up to the lesser of an aggregate of
200,000,000 shares of our common stock and an aggregate of ¥100.0 billion between May 16, 2017 and June 30,
2017 and to cancel the repurchased shares. We plan to cancel all of the repurchased shares on July 20, 2017.
Based on the Japanese GAAP information used to calculate our capital ratios as of March 31, 2017, we estimatethat the repurchased shares would result in a decline in our capital ratios by approximately 0.1 percentage point.
During November and December 2016, we repurchased 142,238,800 shares of our common stock for¥99,999,993,960 under a share repurchase program that was adopted in November 2016 and completed in
December 2016. The repurchased shares were added to our treasury shares. Under the program, we wereauthorized by the Board of Directors to repurchase up to the lesser of an aggregate of 230,000,000 shares of ourcommon stock and an aggregate of ¥100.0 billion between November 15, 2016 and December 31, 2016.
During May and June 2016, we repurchased 190,614,800 shares of our common stock for ¥99,999,963,346
under a share repurchase program that was adopted in May 2016 and completed in June 2016. The repurchased
shares were added to our treasury shares. Under the program, we were authorized by the Board of Directors torepurchase up to the lesser of an aggregate of 230,000,000 shares of our common stock and an aggregate of¥100.0 billion between May 17, 2016 and June 30, 2016.

In February 2017, we issued to global investors $2.5 billion, or ¥284 billion, aggregate principal amount ofsenior notes that were intended to qualify as Total Loss Absorbing Capacity, or TLAC, debt. In September 2016,
we issued to global investors $4 billion, or ¥406 billion, aggregate principal amount of senior notes that wereintended to qualify as Total Loss Absorbing Capacity, or TLAC, debt, including $500 million, or ¥51 billion,
aggregate principal amount of such notes, with the use of the net proceeds from their issuance being restricted toloans through BTMU to renewable energy projects. This was our first issuance of notes which were intended tohave its net proceeds applied to finance renewable energy projects. These issuances followed the issuance of$5 billion, or ¥562 billion, aggregate principal amount of TLAC-eligible senior notes in March 2016 and theissuance of an additional $2 billion, or ¥222 billion, aggregate principal amount of such notes in April 2016.
Under the Financial Stability Board’s TLAC standard, we are required to hold TLAC debt in an amount notless than 16% of our risk-weighted assets and 6% of the applicable Basel III leverage ratio denominator by
January 1, 2019. We plan to issue additional senior debt securities intended to qualify as TLAC debt to meet therequirements, although TLAC requirements for Japanese financial institutions, including us, have not yet been
finalized. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—
Japan—Total loss-absorbing capacity.”
Issuances of Basel III-Compliant Domestic Subordinated Bonds

unsecured perpetual subordinated Additional Tier 1 notes. These notes are subject to our discretion to ceaseinterest payments and a write-down of the principal upon the occurrence of certain events, including when our
Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio declines below 5.125%, when we are deemed to be at risk of becoming
non-viable or when we become subject to bankruptcy proceedings, but, following any write-down, the principal
may be reinstated to the extent permitted by the Japanese banking regulator. Since our first issuance of unsecured
perpetual subordinated Additional Tier 1 notes with similar terms in March 2015, we have issued ¥950.0 billion
aggregate principal amount of such notes through March 31, 2017, including the October 2016 issuance.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report are prepared in accordancewith U.S. GAAP. Certain accounting policies require management to make difficult, complex or subjective
judgments regarding the valuation of assets and liabilities. The accounting policies are fundamental tounderstanding our operating and financial review and prospects. The notes to our consolidated financial
statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report provide a summary of our significant accounting policies.
The following is a summary of the critical accounting estimates:
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses represents management’s best estimate of probable losses in our loan
portfolio. The evaluation process, including credit-ratings and self-assessments, involves a number of estimatesand judgments. The allowance is based on two principles of accounting guidance: (1) the guidance oncontingencies requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and can be estimated, and(2) the guidance on accounting by creditors for impairment of a loan requires that losses be accrued based on the
difference between the loan balance, on the one hand, and the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate, the fair value of collateral or the loan’s observable market
value, on the other hand.
We divide our loan portfolio into the following segments—Commercial, Residential, Card, MUAH and
Krungsri based on the segments used to determine the allowance for credit losses. We further divide theCommercial segment into classes based on initial measurement attributes, risk characteristics, and our approach
to monitoring and assessing credit risk. We determine the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses foreach of our loan portfolios by evaluating various factors and assumptions, such as the borrower’s credit rating,collateral value and historical loss experience as well as existing economic conditions. We update these factors
and assumptions on a regular basis and upon the occurrence of unexpected changes in the economic environment.
For all portfolio segments, key elements relating to the policies and discipline used in determining theallowance for credit losses are our credit classification and the related borrower categorization process. Each of78

these components is determined based on estimates subject to change when actual events occur. The
categorization is based on conditions that may affect the ability of borrowers to service their debt, taking into
consideration current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public
information, analyses of relevant industry segments and current trends. In determining the appropriate level ofallowance, we evaluate the probable loss by category of loan based on its type and characteristics.
In addition to the allowance for credit losses on our loan portfolio, we maintain an allowance for credit
losses on off-balance sheet credit instruments, including commitments to extend credit, a variety of guarantees
and standby letters of credit and other financial instruments. This allowance is included in other liabilities.
Determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses requires the exercise of considerable judgment
and the use of estimates, such as those discussed above. Our actual losses could be more or less than theestimates. To the extent that actual losses differ from management’s estimates, additional provisions for credit
losses may be required that would adversely impact our operating results and financial condition in future
periods. For further information regarding our methodologies used in establishing the allowance for credit losses
by portfolio segments and allowance for credit losses policies, see Note 1 to our consolidated financial
statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report and “—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Financial
Condition—Loan Portfolio.”
For more information on our credit and borrower ratings, see “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk—Credit Risk Management.”
Impairment of Investment Securities
U.S. GAAP requires the recognition in earnings of an impairment loss on investment securities for a decline
in fair value that is other than temporary. Determination of whether a decline is other than temporary often
involves estimating the outcome of future events. Management judgment is required in determining whether
factors exist that indicate that an impairment loss has been incurred at the balance sheet date. These judgments
are based on subjective as well as objective factors. We conduct a review semi-annually to identify and evaluate
investment securities that have indications of possible impairment. The assessment of other-than-temporary
impairment requires judgment and therefore can have an impact on the results of operations. Impairment isevaluated considering various factors, and their significance varies from case to case.
Debt and marketable equity securities. In determining whether a decline in fair value below cost is otherthan temporary for a particular equity security, we generally consider factors such as the ability and positive
intent to hold the investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. In
addition, an other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in earnings for marketable equity securities when
one of the following criteria is met:‰

the fair value of the investment is 20% or more below cost as of the end of the reporting period,‰

due to the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, the issuer is categorized as “Likely
to become Bankrupt,” “Virtually Bankrupt” or “Bankrupt or de facto Bankrupt” status under theJapanese banking regulations,‰the fair value of the investment has been below cost for six months or longer, or‰

the fair value of the security is below cost and a decision has been made to sell the securities.

For debt securities, an other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in earnings if we have an intent tosell a debt security or if it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of
its amortized cost basis. When we do not intend to sell a debt security and if it is more likely than not that we will
not be required to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the credit component of another-than-temporary impairment of the debt security is recognized in earnings, but the noncredit component isrecognized in accumulated other comprehensive income.
79

Certain securities held by BTMU, MUTB and certain other subsidiaries, which primarily consist of debt
securities issued by the Japanese national government and generally considered to be of minimal credit risk, aredetermined not to be impaired as the respective subsidiaries do not have an intention to sell the securities, or it ismore likely than not that those subsidiaries will not be required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
The determination of other-than-temporary impairment for certain debt securities held by MUAH, whichprimarily consist of residential mortgage-backed securities and certain asset-backed securities, is made on the basisof a cash flow analysis and monitoring of the performance of such securities, as well as whether MUAH intends tosell, or is more likely than not required to sell, the securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
For further information on the amount of the impairment losses and the aggregate amount of unrealized
gross losses on investment securities, see Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere inthis Annual Report.
Equity method investees. We determine whether any loss on investments is other than temporary, throughconsideration of various factors, such as the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been lessthan cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investees, and our intent and ability to retain theinvestment in the investees for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the fair value.
We also evaluate additional factors, such as the condition and trend of the economic cycle, and trends in thegeneral market.
Our assessment of potential impairment involves risks and uncertainties depending on market conditions
that are global or regional in nature and the condition of specific issuers or industries, as well as management’s
subjective assessment of the estimated future performance of investments. If we later conclude that a decline isother than temporary, the impairment loss may significantly affect our operating results and financial condition in
future periods.
Allowance for Repayment of Excess Interest
We maintain an allowance for repayment of excess interest based on our estimate of the potential liability
exposure. Our estimate of the potential liability exposure represents the estimated amount of claims for repaymentof excess interest to be received in the future. We expect that any such claim will be made on the basis of a 2006
ruling of the Japanese Supreme Court, or the Ruling. Under the Ruling, lenders are generally required to reimburse
borrowers for interest payments made in excess of the limits stipulated by the Interest Rate Restriction Act uponreceiving claims for reimbursement, despite the then-effective provisions of the Law Concerning Lending Businessthat exempted a lender from this requirement if the lender provided required notices to the borrower and met otherspecified requirements, and the borrower voluntarily made the interest payment.
While we have not entered into any consumer loan agreement after April 2007 that imposes an interest rate
exceeding the limits stipulated by the Interest Rate Restriction Act, we need to estimate the number of possible
claims for reimbursement of excess interest payments. To determine the allowance for repayment of excessinterest, we analyze the historical number of repayment claims we have received, the amount of such claims,
borrowers’ profiles, the actual amount of reimbursements we have made, management’s future forecasts, andother events that are expected to possibly affect the repayment claim trends in order to arrive at our best estimateof the potential liability. We believe that the provision for repayment of excess interest is adequate and theallowance is at the appropriate amount to absorb probable losses, so that the impact of future claims forreimbursement of excess interest will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results ofoperations. The allowance is recorded as a liability in Other liabilities.
For further information, see Note 27 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in thisAnnual Report and “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Because of ourloans to consumers and our shareholdings in companies engaged in consumer lending, changes in the business orregulatory environment for consumer finance companies in Japan may further adversely affect our financial
results.”80

Income Taxes
Valuation of deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recognized if, based on
the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
not be realized. All available evidence, both positive and negative, is considered to determine whether, based on
the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed. Future realization of the tax benefit of existing
deductible temporary differences or carryforwards ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable
income.
In determining a valuation allowance, we perform a review of future reversals of existing taxable temporary
differences, and future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences. Future taxable income isdeveloped from forecasted operating results, based on recent historical trends and approved business plans, theeligible carryforward periods and other relevant factors. For certain subsidiaries where strong negative evidence
exists, such as cumulative losses and the expiration of unused operating loss carryforwards in recent years, avaluation allowance is recognized against the deferred tax assets to the extent that it is more likely than not thatthey will not be realized.
Because the establishment of the valuation allowance is an inherently uncertain process involving estimates,
if we are not able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax assets in the future, we will incur additional
deferred tax expenses, which could materially affect our operating results and financial condition in future
periods.
Accounting for Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Accounting for Goodwill. U.S. GAAP requires us to test goodwill for impairment at least annually, or
more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired, using a two-stepprocess that begins with an estimation of the fair value of a reporting unit of our business, which is to becompared with the carrying amount of the unit, to identify potential impairment of goodwill. A reporting unit isan operating segment or component of an operating segment that constitutes a business for which discrete
financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by management. The fair value of a reporting unit isdefined as the amount at which the unit as a whole could be bought or sold in a current transaction between
willing parties. For a reporting unit for which an observable quoted price is not available, the fair value isdetermined using an income approach. In the income approach, the present value of expected future cash flows is
calculated by taking the net present value based on each reporting unit’s internal forecasts. A control premium
factor is also considered in relation to market capitalization.
If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, the second step of the goodwill
impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss recorded in our consolidated statements
of income. This test requires comparison of the implied fair value of the unit’s goodwill with the carrying amountof that goodwill. The estimate of the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill requires us to allocate thefair value of a reporting unit to all of the assets and liabilities of that reporting unit, including unrecognizedintangible assets, if any, since the implied fair value is determined as the excess of the fair value of a reporting
unit over the net amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities in the allocation. Accordingly, the second step of
the impairment test also requires an estimate of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities, including any
unrecognized intangible assets that belong to that unit. A change in the estimation could have an impact on
impairment recognition since it is driven by hypothetical assumptions, such as customer behavior and interest
rate forecasts. The estimation is based on information available to management at the time the estimation is
made.
Accounting for Intangible Assets. Intangible assets having indefinite useful lives are subject to annual
impairment tests. An impairment exists if the carrying value of an indefinite lived asset exceeds its fair value. For
other intangible assets subject to amortization, an impairment is recognized if the carrying amount is not
81

recoverable and the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset. Management judgment isrequired to evaluate whether indications of potential impairment have occurred, and to test intangible assets for
impairment if required.
Accrued Severance Indemnities and Pension Liabilities
We have defined retirement benefit plans, including lump-sum severance indemnities and pension plans,
which cover substantially all of our employees. Severance indemnities and pension costs are calculated based
upon a number of actuarial assumptions, including discount rates and expected long-term rates of return on ourplan assets. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, actual results that differ from the assumptions are accumulated andamortized over future periods, and affect our recognized net periodic pension costs and accrued severance
indemnities and pension obligations in future periods. Differences in actual experience or changes in assumptions
may affect our financial condition and operating results in future periods.
The discount rates for the domestic plans are set to reflect the interest rates of high-quality fixed-rate
instruments with maturities that correspond to the timing of future benefit payments.
In developing our assumptions for expected long-term rates of return, we refer to the historical average
returns earned by the plan assets and the rates of return expected to be available for reinvestment of existing plan
assets, which reflect recent changes in trends and economic conditions, including market prices.
Valuation of Financial Instruments
We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The majority of such assets and liabilities
are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including trading securities, trading derivatives and investment
securities. In addition, certain other assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis,including held for sale loans which are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, collateral dependent loans andnonmarketable equity securities subject to impairment.
We have elected the fair value option for certain foreign securities classified as available-for-sale securities,
whose unrealized gains and losses are reported in income.
The guidance on the measurement of fair value defines fair value as the price that would be received to sellan asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. We have an established and documented process for determining fair value in accordance with theguidance. To determine fair value, we use quoted prices which include those provided from pricing vendors,
where available. We generally obtain one price or quote per instrument and do not adjust it to determine fairvalue of the instrument. We perform internal price verification procedures to ensure that the prices and quotes
provided from the independent pricing vendors are reasonable. Such verification procedures include comparisonof pricing sources and analysis of variances among pricing sources These verification procedures are periodically
performed by independent risk management departments. For collateralized loan obligations, or CLOs, backed
by general corporate loans, the fair value is determined by weighting the internal model valuation and thenon-binding broker-dealer quotes. If quoted prices are not available to determine fair value of derivatives, the fairvalue is based upon valuation techniques that use, where possible, current market-based or independently sourced
parameters, such as interest rates, yield curves, foreign exchange rates, volatilities and credit curves. The fairvalues of trading liabilities are determined by discounting future cash flows at a rate which incorporates our own
creditworthiness. In addition, valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that the financial instruments arerecorded at fair value. These adjustments include, but are not limited to, amounts that reflect counterparty credit
quality, liquidity risk, and model risk. Our financial models are validated and periodically reviewed by risk
management departments independent of divisions that created the models.
For a further discussion of the valuation techniques applied to the material assets or liabilities, see Note 32
to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Our net interest income for each of the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 was notmaterially affected by gains or losses resulting from interest rate and other derivative contracts. We use suchderivative instruments to manage the risks affecting the values of our financial assets and liabilities. Althoughthese contracts are generally entered into for risk management purposes, a majority of them do not meet the
specific conditions to qualify for hedge accounting under U.S. GAAP and thus are accounted for as trading assets
or liabilities. Any gains or losses resulting from such derivative instruments are recorded as part of Trading
account profits—net. For a detailed discussion of our risk management activities, see “—A. Operating Results—
Results of Operations—Non-Interest Income” and “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about
Credit, Market and Other Risk.”
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016
Net interest income decreased ¥40.3 billion to ¥2,221.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017from ¥2,261.4 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This decrease was mainly due to lower domestic
interest income, reflecting the lower average balance of interest-earning assets as well as lower average interest
rates in Japan. This decrease was also attributable to an increase in interest expense, reflecting higher U.S. dollar
funding rates in Japan and additional issuances of bonds. This decrease was partially mitigated by an increase inforeign interest income mainly due to higher average interest rates, reflecting generally rising trends in interest
rates in the United States.
Interest income decreased ¥15.0 billion to ¥2,990.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from¥3,005.7 billion for the previous fiscal year. Domestic interest income decreased ¥79.0 billion mainly due tolower volume and interest rates on domestic loans. Foreign interest income increased ¥64.0 billion primarily due
to higher volumes and interest rates on foreign trading account assets and higher interest rates on foreign loans.
Interest expense increased ¥25.3 billion to ¥769.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from¥744.3 billion for the previous fiscal year. Domestic interest expense increased ¥16.6 billion, and foreign interest
expense increased ¥8.7 billion. The higher domestic interest expense was primarily attributable to higher
U.S. dollar funding rates in Japan and additional issuances of domestic bonds. The higher foreign interest
expense was mainly due to higher money market interest rates and higher interest rates on deposits in the UnitedStates.
The average interest rate spread increased six basis points to 0.91% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017from 0.85% for the previous fiscal year. Between the same periods, the average interest rate spread on domestic
activities decreased one basis point to 0.51% from 0.52%, while the average interest rate spread on foreign
activities increased nine basis points to 1.30% from 1.21%. The decrease in the average interest rate spread on
domestic activities reflected the continued near-zero interest rate environment in Japan. In such an environment,
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 compared to the previous fiscal year, the average interest rate on
domestic loans decreased four basis points to 1.09% from 1.13%, while the average interest rate on domestic
deposits decreased two basis points to 0.04% from 0.06%. The increase in the average interest rate spread on
foreign activities mainly reflected higher interest rates across all the interest-earning asset categories, with theaverage interest rates on loans, trading account assets, short-term interest-earning assets and interest-earning
deposits in other banks increasing 11, 11, 18 and 15 basis points, respectively, for the fiscal year ended March
31, 2017 compared to the previous fiscal year. Between the same periods, the average interest rates also
increased across all the interest-bearing liability categories except long-term liabilities. The average interest rate
on foreign deposits increased 11 basis points, while the average interest rate on call money, funds purchased, andpayable under repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions increased four basis points, and theaverage interest rate on other short-term borrowings and trading account liabilities increased 42 basis points. In
contrast, the average interest rate on long-term debt decreased 42 basis points.
The Bank of Japan maintained a “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with negative interest rates”
policy throughout the reporting period. As a result, the yield on many financial instruments and other market
interest rates in Japan have declined to negative levels, and the average interest rate on domestic assets continued
to decline while the average rate on domestic liabilities reached historically low levels. In September 2016, theBank of Japan announced a new “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with yield curve control” policy,
85

adding to its monetary policy a Japanese government bond purchase program with an aim to keep the yield of
10-year Japanese government bonds around zero percent. If the policy is maintained in Japan for an extended
period, market interest rates may decline further, and our interest rate spread on domestic activities will likely
continue to be under severe pressure. On the other hand, in the United States, the FRB raised the target range forthe federal funds rate to between 0.5% to 0.75% in December 2016, to between 0.75% to 1.00% in March 2017,
and to between 1.00% to 1.25% in June 2017. The FRB may decide to raise it further during this year, which may
provide an opportunity to improve our interest rate spread but which may adversely impact the value of some of
our interest-earning assets and the costs relating to some of our interest-bearing liabilities. For more information,
see “—Business Environment.”
The average balance of interest-earning assets decreased ¥13.53 trillion to ¥239.19 trillion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017 from ¥252.72 trillion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. The average balance ofdomestic interest-earning assets decreased ¥8.44 trillion to ¥145.18 trillion mainly due to a decrease in thebalance of our available-for-sale Japanese government bond portfolio, reflecting a reduction in our holdings ofJapanese government bonds to manage the risk of losses resulting from declines in the values of Japanese
government bonds in a rising interest rate environment, as well as a decrease in loans, mainly reflecting
repayments of loans by national governmental institutions. The average balance of foreign interest-earning assets
decreased ¥5.09 trillion primarily due to lower balances of interest-earning deposits in other banks, short-term
lending in the money market and loans, partially offset by an increase of ¥1.0 trillion in trading account assets,
particularly U.S. Treasury bonds.
The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased ¥2.38 trillion to ¥223.52 trillion for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥221.14 trillion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. While the averagebalance of domestic interest-bearing liabilities increased ¥6.99 trillion mainly due to a larger balance of deposits
and additional issuances of bonds, the average balance of foreign interest-bearing liabilities decreased¥4.60 trillion, reflecting lower balances across all the interest-bearing liability categories.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2015
Net interest income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 was ¥2,261.4 billion, an increase of¥29.9 billion from ¥2,231.5 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. Both interest income and interest
expense increased, with the increase in interest income exceeding the increase in interest expense, mainlyreflecting a higher balance of our foreign loans. While the average interest rate spread (which is the averageinterest rate on interest-earning assets minus the average interest rate on interest-bearing liabilities) decreased,
the average balance of interest-earning assets increased, primarily reflecting larger volumes of foreign loans andinterest-earning deposits in other banks.
Interest income increased ¥111.1 billion to ¥3,005.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from¥2,894.6 billion for the previous fiscal year. Of the ¥111.1 billion increase in interest income, ¥73.1 billion was
attributable to interest income from loans. In particular, loans booked at foreign branches and subsidiaries
improved with the average loan balance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 increasing ¥6,131.9 billion, or
14.0%, compared to the previous fiscal year. The average interest rate on foreign loans for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016 decreased 0.07 percentage points compared to the previous fiscal year, reflecting lower market
interest rates. Interest income from the domestic loan business decreased ¥48.1 billion, or 5.7%, compared to theprevious fiscal year due to declining interest rates and intensified competition among lending institutions inJapan. Interest income from deposits in other banks increased ¥18.4 billion, or 28.6%, mainly due to a higher
balance of deposits in central banks, including the Bank of Japan. Interest income from foreign trading accountassets increased ¥35.2 billion, or 10.0%, due to a higher balance of foreign currency-denominated trading
securities in the commercial banking subsidiaries, partially offset by a decrease of ¥13.1 billion, or 28.5%, ininterest income from domestic trading account assets.
Interest expense also increased ¥81.2 billion to ¥744.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from¥663.1 billion for the previous fiscal year. Interest expense on interest-bearing foreign deposits increased86¥33.8 billion, or 13.7%, reflecting a ¥3,705.0 billion, or 9.9%, increase in the average balance of such deposits.
Interest expense on long-term debt increased ¥32.0 billion, or 12.6%, due to higher balances of both domestic
and foreign long-term debt despite lower average interest rates on such debt as we were able to finance at lower
interest rates.
The average interest rate spread decreased 0.05 percentage points to 0.85% for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016 from 0.90% for the previous fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, compared tothe previous fiscal year, the average interest rate on interest-earning assets decreased 0.03 percentage points to
1.19% from 1.22%, while the average interest rate on interest-bearing liabilities increased 0.02 percentage points
to 0.34% from 0.32%, which resulted in the overall decrease in the average interest rate spread. The averageinterest rate spread on domestic activities decreased 0.11 percentage points to 0.52% from 0.63%, while theaverage interest rate spread on foreign activities increased 0.02 percentage points to 1.21% from 1.19%. In Japan,
while the average interest rate on interest-earning assets continued to decline, the average interest rate oninterest-bearing liabilities slightly increased mainly because of higher interest rates on deposits and short-termborrowings. Interest expense on deposits includes profits and losses from derivatives embedded in structured
deposits, where such interest expense is reduced by the amount of net profits and increased by the amount of net
losses. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, net profits from such derivatives significantly decreased
compared to the previous fiscal year primarily due to lower customer demand for structured deposits as risk
aversion heightened. In addition to interest expense on deposits, our cost of short-term U.S. dollar funding
through funds purchased, and payables under repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions, also
increased as interest rates in the United States were generally on a rising trend during the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016. The impact of these increases in interest expense on deposits and funding cost more than offset
the continued downward pressure on interest rates in Japan. As for foreign interest-earning assets and foreigninterest-bearing liabilities, interest rates remained, on average, relatively unchanged for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016 compared to the previous fiscal year, as the impact of the overall increasing trend in interest
rates in the United States was offset to a large extent by the overall decreasing trend in interest rates in theEurozone, where the ECB adjusted its policy interest rates downward to negative rates.
The Bank of Japan has maintained a “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with negative interest
rates” policy and applied a negative interest rate of minus 0.1% to the “Policy-Rate Balances,” which are a partof current account amounts held by financial institutions at the Bank of Japan. As a result, the yield on manyfinancial instruments and other market interest rates in Japan have declined to negative levels and the averageinterest rate on domestic assets continued to decline while the average rate on domestic liabilities reachedhistorically low levels. If the policy is maintained in Japan for an extended period, or if the Bank of Japan’s
negative interest rate is lowered from the current level, market interest rates may decline further, and our interest
rate spread on domestic activities will likely continue to be under severe pressure. Monetary easing policies
adopted in foreign markets in Europe, Asia and other regions have placed downward pressure on short-term
interest rates in recent periods. However, changes in monetary policies in the United States, declining oil andother commodity prices, concerns over potentially serious ramifications of the result of the U.K. referendum inJune 2016, where a majority voted to leave the European Union, and the slowing growth in emerging economies
have recently begun to add volatility in both long-term and short-term interest rates, affecting our interest spread.
For further information on the Bank of Japan’s monetary policy and recent interest rate fluctuations in Japan, see“—Business Environment—Economic Environment in Japan.”
The average interest-earning assets for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 were ¥252,715.7 billion, an
increase of ¥15,468.0 billion from ¥237,247.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. The average
domestic interest-earning assets increased ¥6,782.6 billion to ¥153,612.6 billion mainly due to increases ininterest-earning deposits in other banks, particularly the Bank of Japan. This was partially offset by a decrease in
the balance of Japanese government bonds to manage interest rate fluctuation risks particularly in light of the
Bank of Japan’s “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with negative interest rates” and measures topurchase Japanese government bonds in the market, which resulted in the yield on Japanese government bonds
declining to negative levels. The average foreign interest-earning assets increased ¥8,685.4 billion to87¥99,103.1 billion mainly due to an increase in foreign loans. The increase in foreign loans was mainly due toincreased lending activity in the Americas, particularly in the United States, where economic conditions
continued to improve at a moderate pace.
The average interest-bearing liabilities for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 were ¥221,147.0 billion, an
increase of ¥11,045.7 billion from ¥210,101.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. The average
domestic interest-bearing liabilities increased ¥7,324.4 billion to ¥159,323.2 billion mainly due to increases ininterest-bearing deposits and long-term debt. The higher balance of domestic deposits was mainly due to anincrease in domestic deposits in the banking subsidiaries as customer preference shifted due to the Bank ofJapan’s “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with negative interest rates” policy. Following theimplementation of the policy, the yield on various financial instruments and other market interest rates in Japan,
including the yield on Japanese government bonds, declined to negative levels. Many financial institutions andmoney management funds reduced their investments in the money markets to avoid the impact of negativeinterest rates on their investments and their account amounts at the Bank of Japan. As a result, corporate
customers moved their money invested in the money markets to deposit accounts. The increase in domestic longterm debt was mainly due to the issuances by MUFG of senior bonds to comply with the TLAC requirements andto maintain larger balances of foreign currency loans in the banking subsidiaries. The average foreign interestbearing liabilities increased ¥3,721.3 billion to ¥61,823.8 billion mainly due to larger deposit balances.
Provision (credit) for credit losses
Provision (credit) for credit losses is charged to operations to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level
deemed appropriate by management. For more information on our provision (credit) for credit losses and a
description of the approach and methodology used to establish the allowance for credit losses, see “—B. Liquidity
and Capital Resources—Financial Condition—Loan Portfolio—Allowance policy.”Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016
We recorded ¥253.7 billion of provision for credit losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017,
compared to ¥231.9 billion for the previous fiscal year. By segment, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017,¥177.3 billion, ¥12.2 billion, ¥13.3 billion and ¥51.0 billion of provision for credit losses were recorded in theCommercial, Residential, Card and Krungsri segments, respectively, while ¥0.1 billion of credit for credit losses
was recorded in the MUAH segment. For the previous fiscal year, ¥117.1 billion, ¥0.9 billion, ¥47.4 billion and¥76.0 billion of provision for credit losses were recorded in the Commercial, Card, MUAH and Krungsri
segments, respectively, while ¥9.5 billion of credit for credit losses was recorded in the Residential segment.
The provision recorded in the Commercial segment for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 mainlyreflected the deterioration in the business and financial performance of a large borrower in the domestic
electronics manufacturing industry and a large foreign borrower in the trading industry. The provision for credit
losses in the Residential segment for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 primarily resulted from updates to our
future forecast of credit losses with respect to certain individual borrowers reflecting information relating to more
recent transactions with such borrowers. The provision for credit losses in the Krungsri segment for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017 mainly reflected the negative impact of the stagnant economic conditions in Thailand
on the credit quality of the small and medium-sized enterprise portfolio and the retail and consumer financeportfolio.
The credit for credit losses in the MUAH segment for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 compared to theprovision of the previous fiscal year was primarily due to the stabilization of the credit quality of borrowers in
the oil and gas sector in MUAH’s loan portfolio, particularly those that are engaged in the petroleum explorationand production businesses. Recovering oil and gas prices positively affected those businesses.

88

We recorded ¥163.2 billion of provision for credit losses for our domestic loan portfolio for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017, compared to credit for credit losses of ¥5.3 billion for the previous fiscal year. This
reflected the deteriorated credit quality of the large domestic borrower in the Commercial segment and theprovisions recorded for certain individual borrowers in the Residential segment. We recorded ¥90.5 billion ofprovision for credit losses for our foreign portfolio for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, compared toprovision for credit losses of ¥237.2 billion for the previous fiscal year. This smaller provision was primarily
attributable to improvements in the credit quality of foreign subsidiaries of a large Japanese electronics
manufacturer in the Commercial segment and the stabilization of the credit quality of oil and gas borrowers in the
MUAH segment.
For more information, see “—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Financial Condition—Loan Portfolio.”
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2015
We recorded ¥231.9 billion of provision for credit losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016,
compared to ¥87.0 billion for the previous fiscal year. By segment, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016,¥117.1 billion, ¥0.9 billion, ¥47.4 billion and ¥76.0 billion of provision for credit losses were recorded in theCommercial, Card, MUAH and Krungsri segments, respectively, while ¥9.5 billion of credit for credit losses wasrecorded in the Residential segment. For the previous fiscal year, ¥22.6 billion, ¥2.6 billion and ¥94.6 billion ofprovision for credit losses were recorded in the Commercial, Card and Krungsri segments, respectively, while¥30.9 billion and ¥1.9 billion of credit for credit losses were recorded in the Residential and MUAH segments,
respectively.
The provision recorded in the Commercial segment for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 mainlyreflected further deterioration in the business and financial performance of a large borrower in the domestic
electronics manufacturing industry, and deterioration in the credit conditions of borrowers in the energy sector,
which were adversely affected by declining oil and other commodity prices. The provision for credit losses in the
MUAH segment for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 primarily reflected the deteriorated credit quality ofborrowers in the oil and gas sector in MUAH’s loan portfolio, particularly those that are engaged in the
petroleum exploration and production business. The provision for credit losses in the Krungsri segment for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 mainly reflected the negative impact of the stagnant economic conditions inThailand on the credit quality of the small and medium-sized enterprise portfolio and the retail and consumer
finance portfolio.
The decrease in provision for credit losses in the Card segment for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016
compared to the previous fiscal year was primarily due to an overall improvement in the credit quality of theportfolio as we continued to apply refined borrower screening, which we had originally implemented in June2010 under regulatory reforms in the consumer finance industry, and the stable corporate environment in recent
periods has contributed to higher income for borrowers in the segment. The credit for credit losses in the
Residential segment reflected an overall improvement in the credit quality of the portfolio as the stable corporate
environment in recent periods has contributed to higher income for borrowers in the segment.
We recorded ¥5.3 billion of credit for credit losses for our domestic loan portfolio for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016, compared to credit for credit losses of ¥17.5 billion for the previous fiscal year. This reflected
the improved credit quality of the Residential segment. We recorded ¥237.2 billion of provision for credit losses
for our foreign portfolio for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, compared to provision for credit losses of¥104.5 billion for the previous fiscal year. This increase was primarily attributable to the deteriorated credit
conditions of overseas borrowers in the energy sector.

Net foreign exchange gains (losses)
Net foreign exchange gains (losses) consist of the following:‰

Net foreign exchange gains (losses) on derivative contracts are net gains (losses) primarily on currency
derivative instruments entered into for trading purposes. For more information on our derivative
contracts, see Note 24 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual
Report.

‰Net foreign exchange gains (losses) on other than derivative contracts include foreign exchange trading
gains (losses) as well as transaction gains (losses) on the translation into Japanese yen of monetary
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. The transaction gains (losses) on the translation
into Japanese yen fluctuate from period to period depending upon the spot rates at the end of each fiscal
year. In principle, all transaction gains (losses) on translation of monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are included in current earnings.

‰

Net foreign exchange gains (losses) related to the fair value option include transaction gains (losses) on
the translation into Japanese yen of securities under the fair value option. For more information on thefair value option, see Note 32 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual
Report.

Net trading account profits (losses)
Trading account assets and liabilities are carried at fair value and changes in the value of trading accountassets and liabilities are recorded in net trading account profits (losses). Activities reported in our net trading
account profits (losses) can generally be classified into two categories:‰

trading purpose activities, which are conducted mainly for the purpose of generating profits either
through transaction fees or arbitrage gains and involve frequent and short-term selling and buying of
securities, commodities or others; and‰trading account assets relating to the application of certain accounting rules, which are generally not
related to trading purpose activities, but simply classified as trading accounts due to the application ofcertain accounting rules.
91

Of the two categories, trading account assets relating to the application of certain accounting rules represent
a larger portion of our trading account losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
We generally do not separate, for financial reporting purposes, customer originated trading activities from
non-customer related, proprietary trading activities. When an order for a financial product is placed by acustomer, a dealer offers a price which includes certain transaction fees, often referred to as the “margin” to themarket price. The margin is determined by considering factors such as administrative costs, transaction amountand liquidity of the applicable financial product. Once the customer agrees to the offered price, the deal iscompleted and the position is recorded in our ledger as a single entry without any separation of components. To
manage the risk relating to the customer side position, we often enter into an offsetting transaction with themarket. Unrealized gains and losses as of the period-end for both the customer side position and the market side
position are recorded within the same trading account profits and losses.
Net trading account profits (losses) consist of net profits (losses) on interest rate and other derivative
contracts and net profits (losses) on trading account securities, excluding derivatives.
Net profits (losses) on interest rate and other derivative contracts are reported for net profits (losses) on
derivative instruments which primarily relate to trading purpose activities and include:‰

Interest rate contracts: Interest rate contracts are mainly utilized to manage interest rate risks which
could arise from mismatches between assets and liabilities resulting from customer originated trading
activities;‰

Equity contracts: Equity contracts are mainly utilized to manage the risk that would arise from pricefluctuations of stocks held in connection with customer transactions;‰

Commodity contracts: Commodity contracts are mainly utilized to meet customers’ demand for hedging
the risks relating to their transactions, and to diversify our portfolio; and‰Credit derivatives: Credit derivatives are mainly utilized as a part of our credit portfolio risk
management.

Derivative instruments for trading purposes also include those used as hedges of net exposures rather thanfor specifically identified assets or liabilities, which do not meet the specific criteria for hedge accounting.
Net profits (losses) on trading account securities, excluding derivatives, consist of:‰

Net profits (losses) on trading account securities, which primarily consist of gains and losses on trading
and valuation of trading securities which relate to trading purpose activities. Net profits (losses) on
investment securities held by certain consolidated variable interest entities, or VIEs, are included inaccordance with the applicable accounting rules.

‰

Net profits (losses) on trading account securities under the fair value option, which are classified into
trading accounts profits (losses) in accordance with certain accounting rules. For more information on
the fair value option, see Note 32 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in thisAnnual Report.

Net investment securities gains (losses)
Net investment securities gains (losses) primarily include net gains (losses) on sales of marketablesecurities, particularly debt securities and marketable equity securities that are classified as available-for-salesecurities. In addition, impairment losses are recognized and offset net investment securities gains whenmanagement concludes that declines in the fair value of investment securities are other than temporary.

92

Net equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees
Net equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees includes our equity interest in the earnings of ourequity method investees and impairment losses on our investments in equity method investees.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016
Non-interest income decreased ¥1,211.0 billion to ¥1,196.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017from ¥2,407.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This decrease was mainly attributable to a¥915.9 billion decrease in net trading account profits, reflecting fluctuations in interest rates and equity prices inJapan and the United States, and a ¥327.0 billion decrease in net gains on foreign exchange.
Fees and commissions income
Fees and commissions income decreased ¥61.0 billion to ¥1,414.9 billion for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2017 from ¥1,475.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This decrease was primarily due
to a decrease in fees and commissions on security-related services due to weaker customer demand in response touncertain market conditions between April 2016 and mid-November 2016. The decrease in fees and commissions
income was also attributable to lower insurance commissions since the sales of certain types of single premium
insurance products were suspended in April 2016 after Japanese government bonds began trading on negative
yields.

Net foreign exchange losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 were ¥134.9 billion, compared to net
gains of ¥192.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This was mainly due to larger transaction losses
on foreign exchange derivative contracts. This was primarily due to lower mark to market valuation on currency
swaps entered in connection with our U.S. dollar funding, reflecting the fluctuations in the exchange rate between
the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar and the wider gap in interest rates between Japan and the United States. In
addition, our net foreign exchange gains on other than derivative contracts decreased primarily due to thenegative impact of foreign currency exchange rates on the Japanese yen translated amounts of our monetary
assets denominated in foreign currencies as the Japanese yen appreciated against other major currencies between
December 30, 2015 and 2016 on a spot rate basis. These losses were partially offset by smaller net foreignexchange losses on foreign currency-denominated investment securities under the fair value option, particularly
U.S. Treasury bonds.

¥ 276.7¥(639.2)

We recorded net trading account losses of ¥639.2 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017,
compared to net trading account profits of ¥276.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This decrease
was mainly due to ¥325.0 billion of net losses on interest rate and other derivative contracts for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017, compared to ¥434.4 billion of net profits on such derivative contracts for the previous
fiscal year. This resulted mainly from increases in long-term interest rates in Japan and the United States andincreases in equity prices in Japan. The yields of 10-year Japanese government bonds rose from negative rates toaround 0.05% between mid-November 2016 and March 2017. The yields of 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds alsorose from around 1.7% between April 2016 and mid-November 2016 to around 2.4% between mid-November
2016 and March 2017. The Nikkei Stock Average rose from around ¥16,500 between April 2016 andmid-November 2016 to around ¥19,000 between mid-November 2016 and March 2017. We also recorded larger
net losses on trading account securities, excluding derivatives, due to the lower values of trading accountsecurities under the fair value option, particularly U.S. Treasury bonds, as interest rates rose in the United States.
The losses were partially offset by larger net profits on trading account securities in the securities subsidiaries as
equity prices increased in Japan towards the end of the calendar year 2016.
Net investment securities gains (losses)
Net investment securities gains increased ¥48.9 billion to ¥281.2 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31,2017 from ¥232.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This increase was mainly due to an increaseof ¥32.0 billion in net gains on sales of available-for-sale marketable equity securities as we continued to sell
down our equity holdings in an effort to reduce the risk of stock price fluctuations. In addition, net gains on salesof available-for-sale debt securities increased ¥8.0 billion, reflecting a higher volume of sales of Japanese
government bonds to reduce our holdings of such bonds as part of our asset and liability management and interest
rate risk management measures. These increases were partially offset by larger impairment losses onavailable-for-sale equity securities, mainly reflecting decreases in the prices of equity securities held by ourcommercial banking subsidiaries as the Nikkei Stock Average declined during the first half of the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017.

Net equity in earnings of equity method investees
Net equity in earnings of equity method investees for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was¥197.8 billion, compared to ¥176.9 billion for the previous fiscal year, reflecting higher earnings of our equity
method investees, including Morgan Stanley.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2015
Non-interest income decreased ¥437.4 billion to ¥2,407.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016
from ¥2,845.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. This decrease was mainly attributable to a
¥1,343.8 billion decrease in net profits on trading account securities, excluding derivatives. This decrease waspartially offset by a ¥471.8 billion increase in net profits on interest rate and other derivative contracts.
Fees and commissions income
Fees and commissions income increased ¥74.9 billion to ¥1,475.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2016 from ¥1,401.0 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. This increase was primarily due to anincrease in fees and commissions on foreign trading business in domestic and overseas branches. Fees andcommissions on credit card business also increased primarily due to an increased number of consumer financeclients and an increased volume of transactions achieved through improved cooperation between BTMU and
Krungsri.

Net foreign exchange gains for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 were ¥192.1 billion, compared to¥113.1 billion of net foreign exchange losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. This was mainly due to anincrease of ¥1,738.0 billion in net foreign exchange gains on other than derivative contracts. As the Japanese yen
appreciated against other major currencies during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, net foreign exchange
gains on other than derivative contracts increased primarily due to the foreign exchange translation impact on thevalue of monetary liabilities denominated in foreign currencies in our commercial banking subsidiaries. Net
foreign exchange gains on derivative contracts increased ¥591.8 billion, mainly reflecting higher trading gains on
currency options and currency swaps in the banking subsidiaries. These increases were partially offset by larger
losses on securities transactions due to the foreign exchange translation impact.

0.1(157.8)We recorded net trading account profits of ¥276.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016,
compared to ¥1,148.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. This decrease was mainly due to¥157.8 billion of net losses on trading account securities under the fair value option for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016, compared to ¥689.4 billion of net gains on such securities for the previous fiscal year. This
resulted mainly from lower prices of U.S. Treasury securities as interest rates in the United States increased. In
addition, net profits on trading account securities decreased ¥496.6 billion because lower trading volumes in, andsmaller price increases of, Japanese government bonds. The volume of trading in Japanese government bonds inthe market decreased in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 compared to the previous fiscal year. These
decreases were partially offset by an improvement of ¥471.8 billion in net profits on interest rate and otherderivative contracts, mainly reflecting higher fair values of, and larger trading profits on, equity contracts.
Net investment securities gains
Net investment securities gains increased ¥77.6 billion to ¥232.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2016 from ¥154.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. This increase was mainly due to an increaseof ¥83.2 billion in net gains on sales of available-for-sale marketable equity securities as we continued to sell
down our equity holdings in an effort to reduce the risk of stock price fluctuations. In addition, net gains on salesof available-for-sale debt securities increased ¥39.7 billion, reflecting the higher volume of sales of Japanese
government bonds to reduce our holdings of such bonds as part of our asset and liability management and interest
rate risk management measures. These increases were partially offset by larger impairment losses onavailable-for-sale equity securities, mainly reflecting the generally declining trend in stock prices in Japan.
Net equity in earnings of equity method investees
Net equity in earnings of equity method investees for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 was¥176.9 billion, compared to ¥172.9 billion for the previous fiscal year, reflecting higher earnings of our equity
method investees, including Morgan Stanley.

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016
Non-interest expense decreased ¥382.9 billion to ¥2,891.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017from ¥3,274.5 billion for the previous fiscal year. Major factors affecting this decrease are discussed below.
Salaries and employee benefits
The decrease of ¥62.1 billion in salaries and employee benefits was mainly due to headcount reductions in
our subsidiaries in the Americas.
Impairment of intangible assets
Impairment of intangible assets as of March 31, 2017 was ¥5.8 billion, compared to ¥117.7 billion as ofMarch 31, 2016. This was primarily attributable to a smaller impairment of the core deposit intangible assets heldby BTMU.
Impairment of goodwill
Impairment of goodwill as of March 31, 2017 was ¥6.6 billion, compared to ¥333.7 billion as of March 31,
2016. This was primarily attributable to a smaller impairment of goodwill recognized relating to reporting units
within the Global Business Group segment.
Provision (credit) for off-balance sheet credit instruments
We recorded ¥106.6 billion of provision for off-balance sheet credit instruments for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2017 primarily relating to commitments and guarantees extended to large borrowers in the domestic
electronic manufacturing industry in financial difficulty.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2015
Non-interest expense increased ¥547.6 billion to ¥3,274.5 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016
from ¥2,726.9 billion for the previous fiscal year. Major factors affecting this increase are discussed below.
Salaries and employee benefits
Salaries and employee benefits for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 were ¥1,158.9 billion, an increaseof ¥61.4 billion from ¥1,097.5 billion for the previous fiscal year. This increase was primarily due to an increasein salaries largely in MUAH to increase the headcount of qualified personnel to facilitate the process for its
preparation for compliance with U.S. enhanced prudential standards rules, which became applicable on July 1,
2016.
Impairment of goodwill
Impairment of goodwill for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 was ¥333.7 billion, an increase of¥330.3 billion from ¥3.4 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, we recognized ¥4.3 billion in impairment of goodwill relating to areporting unit within the Trust Assets Business Group segment. We readjusted the future cash flow projection of
the reporting unit in this segment, considering the relevant subsidiaries’ recent business performance. In light ofthis situation, the fair value of the reporting unit, which was based on its projected discounted future cash flow,
fell below the carrying amount of the reporting unit. As a result of the required goodwill impairment test, thecarrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeded the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill,
and the impairment loss was recognized on the related goodwill.
98

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, we recognized ¥151.7 billion in impairment of goodwill relating
to the reporting unit other than MUAH and Krungsri within the Global Business Group segment. The Bank ofJapan announced implementation of the “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with negative interest
rates” policy in January 2016, and the benchmark yield turned and stayed negative through to the end of the
fiscal year. Japanese stock prices have fallen, and the Japanese yen has appreciated against other major
currencies since the start of the calendar year 2016, reflecting investors’ heightened risk aversion around theglobe. As a result, MUFG’s stock price declined from ¥743.7 on March 31, 2015 to ¥521.5 on March 31, 2016.
Since the fair value of the reporting unit other than MUAH and Krungsri within the Global Business Groupsegment was estimated based on MUFG’s stock price, this decline led to a decrease in MUFG’s market
capitalization and negatively affected the fair value of the reporting unit. In light of this situation, the fair valueof the reporting unit fell below the carrying amount of the reporting unit. As a result of the required goodwill
impairment test, the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeded the implied fair value of thereporting unit’s goodwill, and the impairment loss was recognized on the related goodwill.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, we recognized ¥177.8 billion in impairment of goodwill relating
to the Krungsri reporting unit within the Global Business Group segment. The economy in China continued toslow down due to weaker investment activity, while decreasing exports adversely affected other Asian
economies, including Thailand. As a result of the slowdown in Thailand’s economic growth, Krungsri’s stock
price declined from THB44.75 on December 31, 2014 to THB29.75 on December 31, 2015. Since the fair valueof the Krungsri reporting unit was estimated based on Krungsri’s stock price, this decline led to a decrease inKrungsri’s market capitalization and negatively affected the fair value of the reporting unit. In light of thissituation, the fair value of the reporting unit fell below the carrying amount of the reporting unit. As a result of
the required goodwill impairment test, the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeded the impliedfair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, and the impairment loss was recognized on the related goodwill.
Impairment of intangible assets
Impairment of intangible assets for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 was ¥117.7 billion, compared to¥0.7 billion for the previous fiscal year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in impairment on the core
deposit intangible held by BTMU. The “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with negative interest rates”
policy of the Bank of Japan led to a decrease in the spread between the interest rate on BTMU’s core deposit
funding and alternative interest rates on BTMU’s funding in the market. As a result, we reevaluated our core
deposit intangible and recognized an impairment loss on BTMU’s core deposit intangible. See Note 6 to ourconsolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Provision for repayment of excess interest
Provision for repayment of excess interest for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 was ¥31.0 billion,
compared to nil for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. The provision was recognized as we began to receive
more claims from borrowers than we had anticipated during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The
provision is included in other non-interest expenses in our consolidated statements of income.

Income taxes applicable to us in Japan are imposed by the national, prefectural and municipal governments,
and the aggregate of these taxes resulted in a combined normal effective statutory tax rate of 35.6%, 33.9% and31.5% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017. Foreign subsidiaries are subject to income taxesof the jurisdictions in which they operate. These taxes are reflected in the effective income tax rate.
The effective income tax rate for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was 34.7%, 3.2 percentage points
higher than the combined normal effective statutory rate of 31.5%. This higher effective income tax rate
primarily reflected an increase in the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets which accounted for 25.4%of the difference between the combined normal effective statutory tax rate and the effective income tax rate. The
valuation allowance increased ¥60.2 billion to ¥268.5 billion at March 31, 2017 from ¥208.3 billion at March 31,
2016, as a result of an additional valuation allowance related to operating loss carryforwards by a consumer
finance subsidiary that we no longer deemed more likely than not to be realized, considering various factors,
including the existence of significant amounts of operating loss carryforwards and the operating results over theprior several years of the subsidiary as well as the outlook regarding the subsidiary’s prospective operating
performance.
This was partially offset by our receipt of nontaxable dividends, which resulted in a decrease of¥34.2 billion, or 12.5%, in income tax expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. Under Japanese tax law,a certain percentage of dividends received is considered nontaxable and excluded from gross revenue incomputing taxable income. This creates a permanent difference between our taxable income for Japanese tax
purposes and our income before income tax expense reported under U.S. GAAP. Another factor lowering theeffective income tax rate was the revisions of domestic tax laws. In June 2016, the Tokyo Metropolitan
Government Bureau of Taxation promulgated revisions to the local tax law. The revisions will reduce the
combined normal effective statutory tax rate from approximately 31.5% as of March 31, 2016 to approximately
30.6% starting in a corporation’s fiscal year that begins on or after April 1, 2017. The revisions resulted in a
release of net deferred tax liabilities, which had the effect of reducing our income tax expense for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017 by ¥26.8 billion, or 9.8%.
The effective income tax rate for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 was 31.8%, 2.1 percentage points
lower than the combined normal effective statutory rate of 33.9%. The lower effective income tax rate wasattributable to the effect of changes in tax law, resulting in a 4.3 percentage point decrease in the effective
income tax rate. Under the “2016 Tax Reform” enacted by the Japanese Diet on March 29, 2016, the effective
statutory rate of corporate income tax will be reduced from approximately 33.9% to 31.5% starting in a100

corporation’s fiscal year that begins on or after April 1, 2016. The tax reform legislation also includes changes in
the limitation on the use of net operating loss carryforwards from 65% to 60% of taxable income for the period
between April 1, 2016 and March 31, 2017, and from 50% to 55% for the period between April 1, 2017 andMarch 31, 2018, respectively, and a one-year reduction in the carryforward period of certain net operating loss
carryforwards from ten years to nine years for the period between April 1, 2017 and March 31, 2018. Thechanges in tax laws resulted in a decrease of ¥50,081 million in income tax expense for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016.
This lower effective income tax rate also reflected a valuation allowance release of ¥65.7 billion, which
reduced our valuation allowance to ¥208.3 billion as of March 31, 2016 and resulted in a 4.0 percentage point
reduction in the effective income tax rate. Generally, we reduce our valuation allowance to the extent that it ismore likely than not that the deferred tax assets would be realized. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, werecorded the valuation allowance release primarily because the profitability of a subsidiary improved.
Management considered various factors, including the subsidiary’s improved operating performance andcumulative operating results over the prior several years as well as the outlook regarding the subsidiary’s
prospective operating performance, and determined that sufficient positive evidence existed as of March 31, 2016
to conclude that it was more likely than not that a portion of the subsidiary’s operating loss carryforwards
reflected in our deferred tax assets would be realizable. As a result, our valuation allowance was reduced to theextent of that portion as of March 31, 2016.
The foregoing factors were offset by a 9.7 percentage point increase as a result of our recording an
impairment of goodwill under U.S. GAAP, decreasing our income from continuing operations before income tax
expense to ¥1,162.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. Under Japanese tax law, such impairment
was not deductible in computing our taxable income.
The effective income tax rate for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 was 29.4%, 6.2 percentage points
lower than the combined normal effective statutory rate of 35.6%. This was partly due to our receipt ofnontaxable dividends. Another factor contributing to the lower effective income tax rate was a reduction in
valuation allowances to the extent that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would be realized
mainly because certain subsidiaries were expected to remain profitable in future periods, considering the current
business environment.
In addition, the lower effective income tax rate was also attributable to the effect of changes in tax law.
Under the “2015 Tax Reform” enacted by the Japanese Diet on March 31, 2015, the effective statutory rate ofcorporate income tax was reduced from approximately 35.6% to 33.9% starting in a corporation’s fiscal year thatbegins on or after April 1, 2015. The tax reform legislation also includes changes in the limitation on the use of
net operating loss carryforwards from 80% to 65% of taxable income for the two-year period between April 1,2015 and March 31, 2017, and from 65% to 50% for the fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2017,
respectively, and a one-year increase in the carryforward period of certain net operating loss carryforwards fromnine years to ten years for the fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2017. The changes in tax laws resulted ina decrease of ¥39,966 million in income tax expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. Furthermore, theTokyo Metropolitan Government Bureau of Taxation promulgated revisions to the local tax law in July 2015.
The revisions reduced the combined normal effective statutory tax rate from approximately 33.9% as ofMarch 31, 2015 to approximately 32.3% starting in a corporation’s fiscal year that begins on or after April 1,
2016.
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016
We recorded net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of ¥24.6 billion for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2017, compared to net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of ¥9.1 billion for the previous
fiscal year. The larger losses mainly reflected net losses of Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS.
101

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2015
We recorded net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of ¥9.1 billion for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016, compared to net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of ¥65.5 billion for the previous
fiscal year. This decrease was mainly due to impairment of goodwill attributable to noncontrolling interests
relating to Krungsri.
Business Segment Analysis
We measure the performance of each of our business segments primarily in terms of “operating profit.”
Operating profit and other segment information in this Annual Report are based on the financial information
prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP as adjusted in accordance with internal management accounting
rules and practices. Accordingly, the format and information are not consistent with our consolidated financial
statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For example, operating profit does not reflect items such as
a component of the provision (credit) for credit losses (primarily equivalent to the formula allowance under
U.S. GAAP), foreign exchange gains (losses) and investment securities gains (losses). For a reconciliation ofoperating profit under the internal management reporting system to income before income tax expense shown on
the consolidated statements of income, see Note 30 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewherein this Annual Report. We do not use information on the segments’ total assets to allocate our resources andassess performance. Accordingly, business segment information on total assets is not presented.
Our internal management accounting rules and practices are based on a matrix framework management uses
to manage the operations of our group companies. The framework consists of an integrated business groupsystem and an operating entity system. The integrated business group system integrates the operations of ourgroup companies into five business groups—Retail Banking, Corporate Banking, Global, Trust Assets andGlobal Markets. Under the operating entity system, our group companies are grouped under the major operating
subsidiaries as follows: BTMU, MUTB, MUMSS (through MUSHD), Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS and othersubsidiaries. Our reporting segments are based on the integrated business group system as it reflects
management’s view that the operating entities provide financial services and products under unified strategies foreach of the integrated business groups as well as on an MUFG group-wide basis. Accordingly, our reporting
segments consist of the five core business groups described above, which serve as the core sources of ourrevenue, as well as “Other,” which represents the operations that are not covered under the five core businessgroups and the elimination of duplicated amounts of net revenues among business segments as further described
below.
The following is a brief explanation of our business segments for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017:
Retail Banking Business Group—Covers all retail businesses, including commercial banking, trust banking
and securities businesses, in Japan. This business group integrates the retail businesses of BTMU, MUTB,
MUSHD, Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS and other subsidiaries as well as retail product development, promotion andmarketing in a single management structure. At the same time, this business group has developed andimplemented MUFG Plaza, a one-stop, comprehensive financial services concept that provides integratedbanking, trust and securities services.
Corporate Banking Business Group—Covers all Japanese corporate businesses, including commercial
banking, investment banking, trust banking and securities businesses, in and outside Japan. Through the
integration of these business lines, diverse financial products and services are provided to our corporate clients.
This business group has strategic domains, sales channels and methods to match the different growth stages andfinancial needs of our corporate clients.
Global Business Group—Covers the businesses of BTMU and MUSHD outside Japan, includingcommercial banking, such as loans, deposits and cash management services, investment banking, retail banking,trust assets, and securities businesses (with the retail banking and trust assets businesses being conducted through102

MUFG Union Bank, or MUB, and Krungsri), through a global network of nearly 1,200 offices outside Japan toprovide customers with financial products and services that meet their increasingly diverse and sophisticatedfinancing needs.
Trust Assets Business Group—Covers asset management and administration services for products such aspension trusts and security trusts by integrating the trust banking expertise of MUTB and the global network of
BTMU. This business group provides a full range of services to corporate and other pension funds, including
stable and secure pension fund management and administration, advice on pension schemes and payment ofbenefits to scheme members.
Global Markets Business Group—Covers asset and liability management and strategic investments of
BTMU and MUTB, and sales and trading of financial products of BTMU, MUTB and MUSHD.
Other—Consists mainly of the corporate centers of MUFG, BTMU, MUTB and MUMSS. The eliminationof duplicated amounts of net revenues among business segments is also reflected in Other.
Effective April 1, 2016, we made modifications to our internal management accounting rules and practices
for MUAH and Krungsri to eliminate the presentation of operating profits for MUAH and Krungsri as
sub-categories of the Global Business Group. In prior fiscal years, the presentation of the Global BusinessGroup’s operating profit was broken down into the operating profit attributable to each of MUAH, Krungsri andOther than MUAH/Krungsri. However, management no longer considers the breakdown to reflect the
responsibility for profits among MUAH, Krungsri and Other than MUAH/Krungsri, particularly in light of therecent changes to the group company structure in the United States to comply with U.S. Enhanced Prudential
Standards.
Effective April 1, 2016, we also made modifications to our internal management accounting rules andpractices to clarify the responsibility for profits of each business segment. Net revenues, operating expenses andoperating profits (losses) relating to the overseas Japanese corporate business are recorded in both the Corporate
Banking Business Group and the Global Business Group. The double-counting of these amounts is eliminated inaggregating the amounts of net revenues, operating expenses and operating profits (losses) of the Retail Banking
Business Group, the Corporate Banking Business Group, the Global Business Group and the Trust Assets
Business Group, which amounts are shown in the Total of Customer Business column in the tables below. Net
revenues, operating expenses and operating profits (losses) relating to the overseas Japanese corporate businesswere previously recorded only in the Global Business Group. This modification reflected management’s
determination that, given the operations of the Corporate Banking Business Group servicing Japanese corporateclients, the Corporate Banking Business Group’s responsibility should be clarified to extend beyond thebusinesses with Japanese corporate clients in Japan to the businesses with Japanese corporate clients in overseas
markets. Effective October 1, 2016, we made additional modifications to refine the definition of the overseas
Japanese corporate business. These modifications had the impact of increasing the operating profit of the
Corporate Banking Business Group for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 by ¥53.8 billion and¥26.0 billion, respectively.
We made other modifications to our internal management accounting rules and practices to clarify the
responsibility for profits of each business segment, effective April 1, 2016, and made additional modifications for
similar purposes, effective October 1, 2016. These modifications had the following impact:‰

for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, increasing the operating profits of the Global Markets
Business Group and Other by ¥1.0 billion and ¥2.5 billion, respectively, and reducing the operating
profit of the Global Business Group by ¥3.5 billion; and‰for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, increasing the operating profits of the Global Markets
Business Group and Other by ¥0.8 billion and ¥5.4 billion, respectively, and reducing the operating
profit of the Global Business Group by ¥6.2 billion.

Prior period business segment information has been restated to enable comparison between the relevant
amounts for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017.

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016
Retail Banking Business GroupNet revenue of the Retail Banking Business Group decreased ¥60.9 billion to ¥1,198.3 billion for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥1,259.2 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. Net revenue of the
Retail Banking Business Group mainly consists of domestic revenues from commercial banking operations, suchas deposits and lending operations, and fees related to sales of investment products to retail customers, as well as
fees received by subsidiaries within the Retail Banking Business Group. The decrease in net revenue was mainly
attributable to a decrease in fees and commissions on sales of securities primarily due to weaker customer
demand in response to uncertain market conditions as well as a decrease in insurance commissions since the salesof certain types of single premium insurance products were suspended in April 2016 after Japanese government
bonds began trading on negative yields. The decrease in net revenue was also attributable to lower net revenue
related to operations funded by deposits due to tighter interest rate spreads in the near-zero interest rateenvironment in Japan.
Operating expenses of the Retail Banking Business Group increased ¥0.4 billion to ¥973.0 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥972.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This increase
was mainly attributable to investments in a system integration project in our consumer finance subsidiary toestablish an efficient and effective business platform for cashless payment and credit card services. The system
integration project started in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 and is expected to be completed during the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, for an estimated aggregate budget of ¥157.2 billion.
Operating profit of the Retail Banking Business Group decreased ¥61.3 billion to ¥225.3 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥286.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Corporate Banking Business GroupNet revenue of the Corporate Banking Business Group decreased ¥48.5 billion to ¥1,041.6 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥1,090.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. Net revenue of
the Corporate Banking Business Group mainly consists of domestic revenues from corporate lending and othercommercial banking operations, investment banking and trust banking businesses in relation to corporate clients,
as well as fees received by subsidiaries within the Corporate Banking Business Group. The lower net revenue
mainly reflected decreases in net revenue related to operations funded by deposits and net revenue from loans tocorporate clients due to tighter interest rate spreads in the near-zero interest rate environment in Japan, as well as105

a decrease in fee income from the sales of derivative instruments. These decreases were offset in part by anincrease in fees and commissions from hybrid financing transactions, including syndicated loans to large
corporations and small and medium-sized enterprises.
Operating expenses of the Corporate Banking Business Group decreased ¥5.4 billion to ¥598.4 billion for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥603.8 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Operating profit of the Corporate Banking Business Group decreased ¥43.1 billion to ¥443.2 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥486.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Global Business GroupNet revenue of the Global Business Group increased ¥30.6 billion to ¥1,303.7 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017 from ¥1,273.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. Net revenue of the Global
Business Group mainly consists of revenues from commercial banking businesses outside of Japan, includingloans, deposits and cash management, investment banking, retail banking, trust assets and securities businesses.
The higher net revenue was mainly due to the positive impact of improvements in the event-driven financing
business in Asia and Oceania, EMEA and the Americas, as well as larger volumes of automobile purchasefinancing and consumer loans in Krungsri. The positive impact was partially offset by the appreciation of theJapanese yen against other major currencies. Net revenue was also adversely affected by tighter interest rate
spreads in China, reflecting intensified competition among lending institutions, and lower volumes of U.S.
dollar-denominated lending in China as the Renminbi depreciated against the U.S. dollar.
Operating expenses of the Global Business Group increased ¥6.1 billion to ¥821.2 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017 from ¥815.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, reflecting an increase in
expenses in Krungsri primarily due to the larger volumes of business and an increase in expenses for global
financial regulatory compliance purposes. These increases were partially mitigated by our cost management
measures, particularly in the Americas.
Operating profit of the Global Business Group increased ¥24.5 billion to ¥482.5 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017 from ¥458.0 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Trust Assets Business GroupNet revenue of the Trust Assets Business Group increased ¥0.9 billion to ¥173.1 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017 from ¥172.2 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. Net revenue of the Trust
Assets Business Group mainly consists of fees from asset management and administration services for products
such as pension trusts and investment trusts. Net revenue of the Trust Assets Business Group increased mainly
due to an increase in income from the fund administration and custody services globally, which was largely
offset by a decrease in net revenue attributable to the lower market values of pension funds and investment
products, reflecting weaker equity prices in Japan between April 2016 and the U.S. presidential election in
November 2016.
Operating expenses of the Trust Assets Business Group increased ¥10.2 billion to ¥112.2 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥102.0 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This was mainly
due to the expansion of our fund administration and custody services globally.
Operating profit of the Trust Assets Business Group decreased ¥9.3 billion to ¥60.9 billion for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥70.2 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Global Markets Business GroupNet revenue of the Global Markets Business Group decreased ¥54.1 billion to ¥582.0 billion for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥636.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This was mainly due toa decrease in profits on sales of foreign currency-denominated bonds as we reduced the balance of our foreign
government bond portfolio in anticipation of, and reaction to, rising interest rates in the United States.
106

Operating expenses of the Global Markets Business Group increased ¥4.3 billion to ¥212.9 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥208.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, reflecting higher
costs for a system integration project to enhance coordination and collaboration in the sales and trading businessbetween our commercial banking subsidiaries and our securities subsidiaries as well as higher expenses forfinancial regulatory compliance purposes.
Operating profit of the Global Markets Business Group decreased ¥58.4 billion to ¥369.1 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥427.5 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2015
Retail Banking Business GroupNet revenue of the Retail Banking Business Group decreased ¥40.2 billion to ¥1,259.2 billion for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥1,299.4 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. Net revenue of the
Retail Banking Business Group mainly consists of domestic revenues from commercial banking operations, suchas deposits and lending operations, and fees related to sales of investment products to retail customers, as well as
fees received by subsidiaries within the Retail Banking Business Group. The decrease in net revenue was mainly
attributable to lower net interest income from loans, such as residential loans, as both interest rate spreads andlending volumes decreased in Japan where interest rates continued to decline and the competition in the housing
loan market continued to intensify. Fee income also decreased, particularly in the commercial banking andsecurities subsidiaries, primarily because of lower sales in investment financial instruments such as mutual funds.
Operating expenses of the Retail Banking Business Group increased ¥13.8 billion to ¥972.6 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥958.8 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
Operating profit of the Retail Banking Business Group decreased ¥54.0 billion to ¥286.6 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥340.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
Corporate Banking Business GroupNet revenue of the Corporate Banking Business Group decreased ¥58.4 billion to ¥1,090.1 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥1,148.5 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. Net revenue of
the Corporate Banking Business Group mainly consists of domestic revenues from corporate lending and othercommercial banking operations, investment banking and trust banking businesses in relation to corporate clients,
as well as fees received by subsidiaries within the Corporate Banking Business Group. The lower net revenue
was mainly due to a decrease in net interest income relating to corporate lending due to reduced interest rate
spreads reflecting lower market interest rates, as well as a decrease in fee income from the investment banking
businesses such as structured financing in our banking subsidiaries. These decreases were offset in part byincreased fee income from the primary business, such as underwriting of equity and debt securities, in our
securities subsidiaries.
Operating expenses of the Corporate Banking Business Group increased ¥3.9 billion to ¥603.8 billion for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥599.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. This increase
was mainly due to the higher expenses relating to the overseas Japanese corporate business, reflecting an increasein costs related to regulatory compliance, partially offset by a decrease in expenses resulting from the reduced
headcount in domestic branches and a decrease in administrative costs through the implementation of a new
system designed to improve the efficiency of daily administrative operations through enhanced collaboration
among group companies.
Operating profit of the Corporate Banking Business Group decreased ¥62.3 billion to ¥486.3 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥548.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
Global Business GroupNet revenue of the Global Business Group decreased ¥16.7 billion to ¥1,273.1 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2016 from ¥1,289.8 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. Net revenue of the Global
107

Business Group mainly consists of revenues from commercial banking businesses outside of Japan, includingloans, deposits and cash management, investment banking, retail banking, trust banking and securities
businesses. Net revenue of the Global Business Group was adversely affected by decreases in revenues in China,
where economic growth decelerated, in ASEAN, where economic conditions were negatively impacted by the
economic slowdown in China and declining oil and other commodity prices. Net revenue of the Global BusinessGroup was also negatively affected by the appreciation of the Japanese yen against other major currencies. These
negative effects were partially offset by increased fees from our investment banking and advisory services
relating to M&A transactions in the United States and EMEA. Krungsri’s net revenue also increased mainly due
to the expanded scope and volume of its business as a result of its integration with BTMU’s Bangkok branch andlower market interest rates that enabled Krungsri to reduce its funding costs.
Operating expenses of the Global Business Group increased ¥21.4 billion to ¥815.1 billion for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥793.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, mainly due to anincrease in salaries in foreign branches of our commercial banking and securities subsidiaries for global financial
regulatory compliance purposes, as well as higher costs for enhancing our global financial regulatory compliancesystem.
Operating profit of the Global Business Group decreased ¥38.1 billion to ¥458.0 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2016 from ¥496.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
Trust Assets Business GroupNet revenue of the Trust Assets Business Group increased ¥0.7 billion to ¥172.2 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2016 from ¥171.5 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. Net revenue of the Trust
Assets Business Group mainly consists of fees from asset management and administration services for products
such as pension trusts and investment trusts. Net revenue of the Trust Assets Business Group increased mainly
due to an increase in income from the fund administration and custody services globally.
Operating expenses of the Trust Assets Business Group decreased ¥1.2 billion to ¥102.0 billion for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥103.2 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
Operating profit of the Trust Assets Business Group increased ¥1.9 billion to ¥70.2 billion for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2016 from ¥68.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
Global Markets Business GroupNet revenue of the Global Markets Business Group decreased ¥28.2 billion to ¥636.1 billion for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥664.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. This decrease wasmainly attributable to higher costs of hedging our exposures relating to our foreign currency denominated bondinvestment portfolio.
Operating expenses of the Global Markets Business Group increased ¥2.6 billion to ¥208.6 billion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥206.0 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016
Domestic net income (loss) attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group decreased ¥551.1 billion to¥365.7 billion of net loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥185.4 billion of net income for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This was mainly because our domestic commercial banking subsidiaries
reported ¥309.9 billion of trading account losses and ¥144.4 billion of foreign exchange losses mainly on
securities and derivative contracts for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. Domestic interest income also
decreased largely due to lower lending volumes.

109Foreign net income attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group decreased ¥48.5 billion to ¥568.4 billion
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥616.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. The
decrease in foreign net income was mainly due to lower net income in Asia mainly resulting from decreases ininterest income and fees on loans in Thailand and China. The decrease in Thailand was mainly attributable to theappreciation of the Japanese yen against the Thai baht during the calendar year 2016 compared to the previous
calendar year as well as lower lending volumes to small and medium-sized enterprises and consumers, whichwere adversely affected by stagnant economic conditions in Thailand. The decrease in China was mainly
attributable to tighter interest rate spreads, reflecting intensified competition among lending institutions in China,
and lower volumes of U.S. dollar-denominated lending in China as the Renminbi depreciated against the U.S.
dollar.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2015
Domestic net income attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group decreased ¥225.3 billion to¥185.4 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥410.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2015. This was mainly due to the impairment losses on goodwill relating to the Krungsri reporting unit and thereporting unit other than MUAH and Krungsri within the Global Business Group segment and a portion of theimpairment loss on goodwill relating to a reporting unit within the Trust Assets Business Group segment, as well
as lower interest income from the domestic loan business, and an increase in provision for credit losses during
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Foreign net income attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group decreased ¥503.5 billion to¥616.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 from ¥1,120.4 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2015. The decrease in foreign net income was due to lower net income in Europe, Asia and other areas excluding
the United States. The decrease in EMEA was mainly due to lower net trading profits from foreign bonds
accounted for under the fair value option and interest rate derivatives, mainly reflecting the rapid increases ininterest rates in Europe in May and June 2015. The decrease in Asia reflected the decelerated economic growth inChina, and the stagnant economic conditions in ASEAN which were negatively impacted by the economic
slowdown in China and declining oil and other commodity prices. The appreciation of the Japanese yen against
the U.S. dollar and other major currencies also resulted in a decrease in the translated Japanese yen amount of net
income. These decreases were partially offset by higher net income in the United States due to larger profits fromthe project finance business.
Effect of Change in Exchange Rates on Foreign Currency Translation
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016
The average exchange rate for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was ¥108.38 per U.S.$1.00, comparedto the average exchange rate of ¥120.14 per U.S.$1.00 for the previous fiscal year. The average exchange rate forthe conversion of the U.S. dollar financial statements of some of our foreign subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2016 was ¥108.84 per U.S.$1.00, compared to the average exchange rate for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2015 of ¥121.05 per U.S.$1.00.
The change in the average exchange rate of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar and other foreign
currencies had the effect of decreasing total revenue by ¥305.1 billion, net interest income by ¥195.7 billion andincome before income tax expense by ¥97.6 billion, respectively, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2015
The average exchange rate for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 was ¥120.14 per U.S.$1.00, comparedto the average exchange rate of ¥109.93 per U.S.$1.00 for the previous fiscal year. The average exchange rate for110the conversion of the U.S. dollar financial statements of some of our foreign subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended

We have allocated a substantial portion of our assets to international activities. As a result, reported amounts
are affected by changes in the exchange rates of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar and other foreign
currencies. Foreign assets are denominated primarily in the U.S. dollar. The Japanese yen amount of foreign
currency-denominated assets decreased as the relevant foreign exchange rates depreciated against the Japaneseyen. For example, as of March 31, 2017, the exchange rate was ¥112.19 per U.S.$1.00, as compared with
¥112.68 as of March 31, 2016. This appreciation of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar and other foreign
currencies between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017 resulted in a ¥30.2 billion decrease in the Japanese yenamount of our total assets as of March 31, 2017.

Notes:(1) Loans to so-called “non-bank finance companies” are generally included in the “Banks and other financial institutions” category.
Non-bank finance companies are primarily engaged in consumer lending, factoring and credit card businesses.
(2) The above table includes loans held for sale of ¥100.9 billion and ¥185.9 billion as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively, which arecarried at the lower of cost or fair value.

Loans are one of our main uses of funds. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the average balance ofloans was ¥117.29 trillion, accounting for 49.0% of the average total interest-earning assets, compared to¥121.08 trillion, representing 47.9% of the average total interest-earning assets, for the previous fiscal year. As of
March 31, 2017, our total loans were ¥118.21 trillion, accounting for 39.8% of total assets, compared to¥122.79 trillion, accounting for 42.0% of total assets as of March 31, 2016. As a percentage of total loans before
unearned income, net unamortized premiums and net deferred loan fees, between March 31, 2016 and March 31,
2017, domestic loans decreased from 58.8% to 56.5%, while foreign loans increased from 41.2% to 43.5%.
Our domestic loan balance decreased ¥5.43 trillion, or 7.5%, between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017.
This was mainly due to a decrease in loans to national government institutions, which are included in the otherindustries category, since their funding needs declined as their cash flows improved.
Our foreign loan balance increased ¥0.85 trillion, or 1.7%, between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017.
This was mainly due to increased lending activity in the Americas, particularly in the United States, where
economic conditions continued to improve at a moderate pace and lending volumes increased generally across all
private industry sectors.

Notes:(1) Total loans in the above table do not include loans held for sale, and represent balances without adjustments in relation to unearned
income, unamortized premiums and deferred loan fees.
(2) Total loans of MUAH do not include FDIC covered loans and small business loans which are not individually rated totaling ¥43.0 billionand ¥40.5 billion as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. We will be reimbursed for a substantial portion of any future losses on
FDIC covered loans under the terms of the FDIC loss share agreements.

We classify loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service
their debt, including, but not limited to, historical and current financial information, historical and current
payment experience, credit documentation, public and non-public information about borrowers and current
economic trends as deemed appropriate to each segment.
The primary credit quality indicator for loans within all classes of the Commercial segment is the internal
credit rating assigned to each borrower based on our internal borrower ratings of 1 through 15 with the rating of
1 assigned to a borrower with the highest quality of credit. When assigning a credit rating to a borrower, weevaluate the borrower’s expected debt-service capability based on various information, including financial andoperating information of the borrower as well as information on the industry in which the borrower operates, andthe borrower’s business profile, management and compliance system. In evaluating a borrower’s debt-service
114

capability, we also conduct an assessment of the level of earnings and an analysis of the borrower’s net worth.
Based on the internal borrower rating, loans within the Commercial segment are categorized as Normal (internalborrower ratings of 1 through 9), Close Watch (internal borrower ratings of 10 through 12), and Likely to
become Bankrupt or Legally/Virtually Bankrupt (internal borrower ratings of 13 through 15).
Loans to borrowers categorized as Normal represent those that are not deemed to have collectability issues.
Loans to borrowers categorized as Close Watch represent those that require close monitoring as the borrower has
begun to exhibit elements of potential concern with respect to its business performance and financial condition,
the borrower has begun to exhibit elements of serious concern with respect to its business performance andfinancial condition, including business problems requiring long-term solutions, or the borrower’s loans are TDRs
or loans contractually past due 90 days or more for special reasons. Loans to borrowers categorized as Likely to
become Bankrupt or Legally/Virtually Bankrupt represent those that have a higher probability of default thanthose categorized as Close Watch due to serious debt repayment problems with poor progress in achieving
restructuring plans, the borrower being considered virtually bankrupt with no prospects for an improvement inbusiness operations, or the borrower being legally bankrupt with no prospects for continued business operations
because of non-payment, suspension of business, voluntary liquidation or filing for legal liquidation.
For more information on our credit and borrower ratings, see “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk—Credit Risk Management.”
The accrual status is a primary credit quality indicator for loans within the Residential segment, the Card
segment, and consumer loans within the MUAH segment. The accrual status of these loans is determined basedon the number of delinquent payments.
Commercial loans within the MUAH segment are categorized as either pass or criticized based on theinternal credit rating assigned to each borrower. Criticized credits are those that are internally risk graded asSpecial Mention, Substandard or Doubtful. Special Mention credits are potentially weak, as the borrower has
begun to exhibit deteriorating trends, which, if not corrected, may jeopardize repayment of the loan and result ina further downgrade. Classified credits are those that are internally risk graded as Substandard or Doubtful.
Substandard credits have well-defined weaknesses, which, if not corrected, could jeopardize the full satisfactionof the debt. A credit classified as Doubtful has critical weaknesses that make full collection improbable on thebasis of currently existing facts and conditions.
Loans within the Krungsri segment are categorized as Normal, Special Mention, and Substandard, which isfurther divided into Substandard, Doubtful and Doubtful of Loss, primarily based on their delinquency status.
Loans categorized as Special Mention generally represent those that have overdue principal or interest payments
for a cumulative period exceeding one month commencing from the contractual due date. Loans categorized as
Substandard, Doubtful or Doubtful of Loss generally represent those that have overdue principal or interest
payments for a cumulative period exceeding three months, commencing from the contractual due date.
For the Commercial, Residential and Card segments, credit quality indicators are based on information as ofMarch 31. For the MUAH and Krungsri segments, credit quality indicators are generally based on information asof December 31.

Note:
(1) Total loans in the above table do not include loans held for sale, and represent balances without adjustments in relation to unearned
income, unamortized premiums and deferred loan fees.

We recorded ¥253.7 billion of provision for credit losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017,
compared to ¥231.9 billion for the previous fiscal year. Our total allowance for credit losses as of March 31,2017 was ¥1,182.2 billion, an increase of ¥71.1 billion from ¥1,111.1 billion as of March 31, 2016. The total
allowance for credit losses represented 1.00% of the total loan balance as of March 31, 2017, compared to 0.90%
as of March 31, 2016. Significant trends in each portfolio segment are discussed below.
117

Commercial segment—A large borrower in the domestic electronics manufacturing industry experienced
deterioration in its business and financial performance, resulting in the transfer of the loans to the borrower fromthe Normal category to the Close Watch category. A large borrower in the trading industry also experienced
deterioration in its business and financial performance, resulting in the transfer of the loans to the borrower,
which are included in the foreign excluding MUAH and Krungsri category within the segment, from the Normal
category to the Likely to become Bankrupt category. These negative factors more than offset the impact ofpositive factors, including improvements in the credit quality of many borrowers in the energy sector, where oiland other commodity prices were on a recovering trend. In addition, a large borrower in the domestic electronics
manufacturing industry and its overseas subsidiaries improved their business and financial performance, resulting
in the transfer of the loans to the borrower from the Likely to become Bankrupt category to the Close Watch
category. As a result, the ratio of loans classified as Likely to become Bankrupt and Legally/Virtually Bankrupt
to total loans decreased to 0.6% as of March 31, 2017 from 1.0% as of March 31, 2016, while the ratio of loansclassified as Close Watch to total loans increased to 3.5% as of March 31, 2017 from 3.4% as of March 31, 2016.
In light of these and other factors, we recorded a larger provision for credit losses for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2017, compared to the previous fiscal year. The total allowance for credit losses for this segment
represented 1.01% of the segment’s total loan balance as of Mach 31, 2017, compared to 0.87% as of March 31,
2016.
Residential segment—We recorded a provision for credit losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017,
compared to a credit for credit losses for the previous fiscal year. We updated our future forecast of credit losses
with respect to certain individual borrowers by reflecting information relating to more recent transactions withsuch borrowers. Although the stable corporate environment in recent periods has generally contributed to higher
income for borrowers, resulting in an overall improvement in the credit quality of this segment, we recorded
provisions for credit losses for some of these individual borrowers. The ratio of loans classified as Nonaccrual tototal loans in the segment was 0.5% as of March 31, 2017, compared to 0.6% as of March 31, 2016. The ratio of
total allowance for credit losses to the total loan balance in this segment increased to 0.47% as of March 31, 2017from 0.41% as of March 31, 2016.
Card segment—The stable corporate environment in recent periods has generally contributed to higher income
for borrowers but has also begun to have varying degrees of impact on them, resulting in some borrowers becoming
delinquent on their interest payments. In light of this and other factors, we recorded a larger provision for credit
losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, compared to the previous fiscal year. In addition, the financial
condition of some borrowers in delinquency deteriorated further, resulting in an increase in charge-offs. During the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, we continued to apply our refined borrower screening, which we had originallyimplemented in June 2010 under regulatory reforms in the consumer finance industry. As a result of these factors
and treatments, the ratio of loans classified as Nonaccrual to total loans in the segment decreased to 10.4% as ofMarch 31, 2017 from 10.6% as of March 31, 2016. The ratio of total allowance for credit losses to the total loanbalance in this segment as of March 31, 2017 was 5.09%, compared to 5.25% as of March 31, 2016.
MUAH segment—We recorded a credit for credit losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, compared
to a provision for credit losses for the previous fiscal year. Recovering oil and gas prices helped stabilize thecredit quality of many borrowers in the oil and gas sector of MUAH’s loan portfolio, particularly those which areengaged in the petroleum exploration and production business. In the meanwhile, the credit quality of someborrowers in the same sector further deteriorated. In addition, we charged off, or transferred to the loans held forsale category, the loans to some borrowers in the oil and gas industry that were unable to improve their
repayment ability. As a result, the ratio of loans classified as Special Mention or below and Nonaccrual to totalloans in the segment decreased to 3.4% as of March 31, 2017 from 3.5% as of March 31, 2016. The ratio of total
allowance for credit losses to the total loan balance in this segment decreased to 0.81% as of March 31, 2017,
compared to 1.15% as of March 31, 2016.
Krungsri segment—Stagnant economic conditions in Thailand negatively impacted the credit quality of thesmall and medium-sized enterprise portfolio and the retail and consumer finance portfolio. The ratio of loans118

classified as Special Mention or below to total loans in the segment increased 0.5 percentage points to 5.9% as ofMarch 31, 2017 from 5.4% as of March 31, 2016. In light of these and other factors, we recorded an additional
provision for credit losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. As a result, the ratio of total allowance for
credit losses to the total loan balance in this segment increased to 2.22% as of March 31, 2017 from 2.06% as ofMarch 31, 2016.
Allowance policy
We maintain an allowance for credit losses to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. We havedivided our allowance for loan losses into five portfolio segments—Commercial, Residential, Card, MUAH and
Krungsri.
For all portfolio segments, key elements relating to the policies and discipline used in determining theallowance for credit losses are our credit classification and related borrower categorization process, which areclosely linked to the risk grading standards set by the Japanese regulatory authorities for asset evaluation andassessment, and are used as a basis for establishing the allowance for credit losses and charge-offs. The
categorization is based on conditions that may affect the ability of borrowers to service their debt, such as current
financial condition and results of operations, historical payment experience, credit documentation, other public
information and current trends.
For more information on our credit and borrower ratings, see “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk—Credit Risk Management.”
For the Commercial, MUAH and Krungsri segments, our allowance for credit losses primarily consists ofallocated allowances. The allocated allowances consist of (1) an allowance for loans individually evaluated for
impairment, (2) an allowance for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, and (3) a formula
allowance. The allocated allowance within the Commercial segment also includes an allowance for country risk
exposure. The allowance for credit losses within the MUAH segment also includes an unallocated allowance
which captures losses that are attributable to economic events in various industry or geographic sectors whose
impact on our loan portfolios in these segments have occurred but have yet to be recognized in the allocatedallowance. For the Residential and Card segments, the loans are smaller-balance homogeneous loans that arepooled by the risk ratings based on the number of delinquencies.
For more information on our methodologies used to estimate the allowance for each portfolio segment, see“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included
elsewhere in this Annual Report and “—Critical Accounting Estimates—Allowance for Credit Losses” above.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, we did not make any significant changes to the methodologies
and policies used to determine our allowance for credit losses.
Allowance for off-balance sheet credit instruments
We maintain an allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit instruments, including commitments
to extend credit, guarantees, standby letters of credit and other financial instruments. The allowance is included
in other liabilities. We have adopted for such instruments the same methodology as that which is used indetermining the allowance for credit losses on loans.
The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit instruments was ¥178.1 billion as of March 31,
2017, an increase of ¥105.5 billion from ¥72.6 billion as of March 31, 2016. This increase primarily related tocommitments and guarantees extended to large borrowers in the domestic electronic manufacturing industry infinancial difficulty.
119

Nonaccrual loans and troubled debt restructurings
We consider a loan to be a nonaccrual loan when substantial doubt exists as to the full and timely payment
of interest on, or repayment of, the principal of the loan, which is a borrower condition that generally
corresponds to borrowers in categories 13 and below in our internal rating system (which corresponds to “Likely
to become Bankrupt,” “Virtually Bankrupt” and “Bankrupt or de facto Bankrupt” status under Japanese banking
regulations). Substantially all nonaccrual loans are also impaired loans. Loans are also placed in nonaccrual
status when principal or interest is contractually past due one month or more with respect to loans within allclasses of the Commercial segment, three months or more with respect to loans within the Card, MUAH and
Krungsri segments, and six months or more with respect to loans within the Residential segment.
We modify certain loans in conjunction with our loss-mitigation activities. Through these modifications,concessions are granted to a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty, generally in order to minimize
economic loss, to avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral, and to ultimately maximize payments received
from the borrower. The concessions granted vary by portfolio segment, by program, and by borrower-specificcharacteristics, and may include interest rate reductions, term extensions, payment deferrals, and partial principal
forgiveness. Loan modifications that represent concessions made to borrowers who are experiencing financial
difficulties are identified as troubled debt restructurings, or TDRs. TDRs are also considered impaired loans, andan allowance for credit losses is separately established for each loan.
Generally, accruing loans that are modified in a TDR remain as accruing loans subsequent to themodification, and nonaccrual loans remain as nonaccrual. However, if a nonaccrual loan has been modified as a
TDR and the borrower is not delinquent under the modified terms, and demonstrates that its financial condition
has improved, we may reclassify the loan to accrual status. This determination is generally performed at least
once a year through a detailed internal credit rating review process. Although we have not defined any minimum
period to qualify for an upgrade, it is not common for a borrower to be able to demonstrate that its businessproblems have been resolved or can soon be resolved within a short period of time following a restructuring. If
the borrower is upgraded to category 12 or higher in our internal rating system (which corresponds to “Normal”
and “Close Watch” status under the Japanese banking regulations), a TDR would be reclassified to accrual status.
Once a nonaccrual loan is deemed to be a TDR, we will continue to designate the loan as a TDR even if the loan
is reclassified to accrual status.
A loan that has been modified into a TDR is considered to be impaired until it matures, is repaid, or isotherwise liquidated, regardless of whether the borrower performs under the modified terms.
For more information on our credit and borrower ratings, see “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk—Credit Risk Management.”
For more information on our TDRs, see Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewherein this Annual Report.

¥1,187.0¥976.9Note:(1) The above table does not include loans held for sale of ¥0.4 billion and nil as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively, and loans
acquired with deteriorated credit quality of ¥12.8 billion and ¥9.7 billion as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

Total nonaccrual loans decreased ¥210.1 billion between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017. Significant
trends in each portfolio segment are discussed below.
Commercial segment—Nonaccrual loans in the domestic commercial category decreased ¥231.8 billion
between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily attributable to an upgrade of theinternal borrower rating assigned to a large borrower in the domestic electronics manufacturing industry in lightof the improvements made in the business and financial performance of the borrower and its overseas
subsidiaries, resulting in the transfer of the loans to the borrower from nonaccrual status to accrual status.
Nonaccrual loans in the foreign excluding MUAH and Krungsri category increased ¥2.1 billion due to thetransfer from accrual status to nonaccrual status of the loans to a large borrower in the trading industry.
Residential segment—Nonaccrual loans in the segment decreased ¥4.4 billion between March 31, 2016 andMarch 31, 2017 primarily due to the transfer from nonaccrual status to accrual status of loans to borrowers who
became current with their payments as the stable corporate environment in recent periods has contributed tohigher income for borrowers in the segment.
Card segment—Nonaccrual loans in the segment decreased ¥1.2 billion between March 31, 2016 andMarch 31, 2017, as a substantial number of borrowers became current with their payments. The continued
application of our refined borrower screening and higher income for borrowers in the stable corporate
environment had a positive effect on the credit quality of our card loan portfolio.
MUAH segment—Nonaccrual loans in the segment increased ¥15.6 billion between March 31, 2016 andMarch 31, 2017 primarily as a result of the transfer from the pass and special mention categories to the classified
121

category of loans to certain borrowers in the oil and gas sector, which was negatively impacted by the declines inoil and other commodity prices during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Krungsri segment—Nonaccrual loans in the segment increased ¥9.6 billion between March 31, 2016 andMarch 31, 2017 primarily because the credit quality of the small and medium-sized enterprise loan portfolio andthe retail and consumer finance loan portfolio was adversely affected by the stagnant economic conditions inThailand.

¥722.4¥927.8Notes:(1) TDRs for the Commercial and Residential segments include accruing loans with concessions granted, and do not include nonaccrualloans with concessions granted.
(2) TDRs for the Card, MUAH and Krungsri segments include accrual and nonaccrual loans. Included in the outstanding recorded
investment balances as of March 31, 2016 and 2017 are nonaccrual TDRs as follows: ¥41.4 billion and ¥39.7 billion—Card;¥49.2 billion and ¥45.1 billion—MUAH; and ¥13.8 billion and ¥19.0 billion—Krungsri, respectively.

Total TDRs increased ¥205.4 billion between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017. Significant trends ineach portfolio segment are discussed below.
Commercial segment—TDRs in the domestic commercial category increased ¥239.0 billion between
March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, we granted a concession infavor of a large borrower in the domestic electronics manufacturing industry on the loans outstanding to theborrower, which had previously been classified as Normal loans, as its business and financial performance
deteriorated. We also granted a concession in favor of another large borrower in the domestic electronics
manufacturing industry on the loans outstanding to the borrower, which had previously been classified as
nonaccrual loans. Later during the same fiscal year, the borrower’s repayment ability improved and, as a result,the loans were reclassified as accrual TDRs.
122

Residential segment—TDRs in the segment decreased ¥10.4 billion between March 31, 2016 and March 31,2017 primarily as a result of repayments of loans classified as TDRs.
Card segment—TDRs in the segment decreased ¥7.0 billion between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017
mainly due to repayments of loans classified as TDRs pursuant to their respective restructured terms.
MUAH segment—TDRs in the segment decreased ¥29.1 billion between March 31, 2016 and March 31,
2017. The decrease was primarily as a result of repayments of loans classified as accrual TDRs as well as chargeoffs or transfers of TDR loans to borrowers in the oil and gas sector to the loans held for sale category.
Krungsri segment—TDRs in the segment increased ¥20.3 billion between March 31, 2016 and March 31,
2017. The increase was primarily because we provided concessions to some borrowers in the small andmedium-sized enterprise loan portfolio and the retail and consumer finance loan portfolio, which were adversely
affected by the stagnant economic conditions in Thailand.
In the above table, TDRs for the Commercial and Residential segments include accruing loans withconcessions granted, and do not include nonaccrual loans with concessions granted, whereas TDRs for the Card,
MUAH and Krungsri segments include accrual and nonaccrual loans. In the Commercial and Residential
segments, once a loan is classified as a nonaccrual loan, a modification would have little likelihood of resulting
in the recovery of the loan in view of the severity of the financial difficulty of the borrower. Therefore, even if a
nonaccrual loan is modified, the loan continues to be classified as a nonaccrual loan. The vast majority ofmodifications to nonaccrual loans are temporary extensions of the maturity dates, typically for periods up to
90 days, and continually made as the borrower is unable to repay or refinance the loan at the extended maturity.
Accordingly, the impact of such TDRs on the outstanding recorded investment is immaterial, and the vast
majority of nonaccrual TDRs have subsequently defaulted.
The primary type of concessions we granted to loans in the Commercial and Card segments during the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017 were reductions in the stated rates. During the same fiscal year, extensions of thestated maturity dates were the primary type of concessions we granted to loans in the Residential segment, andpayment deferrals were the primary type of concessions we granted to loans in the MUAH and Krungsri
segments.
Impaired loans and impairment allowance
Impaired loans primarily include nonaccrual loans and TDRs. We consider a loan to be impaired when,based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all of the scheduled
payments of interest on, and repayment of, the principal of the loan when due according to the contractual termsof the loan agreement.

Notes:(1) These loans do not require an allowance for credit losses because the recorded investments in the loans equal, or do not exceed, thepresent value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans’ effective interest rate, loans’ observable market price, or the fairvalue of the collateral if the loan is a collateral-dependent loan.
(2) Included in impaired loans as of March 31, 2016 and 2017 are accrual TDRs as follows: ¥457.2 billion and ¥688.8 billion—Commercial;¥60.6 billion and ¥50.2 billion—Residential; ¥37.9 billion and ¥32.6 billion—Card; ¥49.6 billion and ¥24.7 billion—MUAH; and¥8.5 billion and ¥23.6 billion—Krungsri, respectively.
(3) In addition to impaired loans presented in the above table, there were loans held for sale that were impaired of ¥0.4 billion and¥9.9 billion as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

While we originate various types of loans to corporate and individual borrowers in Japan and overseas in thenormal course of business, we dispose of nonperforming loans in order to improve our loan quality. Most ofthese nonperforming loans are disposed of by sales to third parties without any continuing involvement.
Through the sale of nonperforming loans to third parties, gains or losses may arise from factors such as achange in the credit quality of the borrowers or the value of the underlying collateral subsequent to the priorreporting date, and the risk appetite and investment policy of the purchasers.
128

The principal amount of non-performing loans sold in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 increased
compared to the previous fiscal year mainly due to the increased sales by MUAH of nonperforming loans
outstanding to borrowers in the oil and gas sector.
In connection with the sale of loans, including performing loans, we recorded net gains of ¥12.1 billion and¥19.4 billion for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively.
Investment Portfolio
Our investment securities primarily consist of Japanese government bonds and marketable equity securities.
Japanese government bonds are mostly classified as available-for-sale securities. Our investment in Japanese
government bonds is a part of our asset and liability management policy with respect to investing the amount ofJapanese yen-denominated funds exceeding our net loans. The percentage of our holding of available-for-sale
Japanese government bonds to the total investment securities decreased to 59.7% as of March 31, 2017 from
63.8% as of March 31, 2016. We also hold Japanese government bonds that are classified as held-to-maturity
securities, which accounted for 2.6% of the total investment securities as of March 31, 2017.
Historically, we have held equity securities of some of our customers primarily for strategic purposes, inparticular to maintain long-term relationships with these customers. We continue to focus on reducing ourinvestment in equity securities for such purposes in order to reduce the price fluctuation risk in our equity
portfolio from a risk management perspective and to respond to applicable regulatory requirements as well as
increasing market expectations for us to reduce our equity portfolio. As of March 31, 2016 and 2017, theaggregate book value of our marketable equity securities under Japanese GAAP satisfied the requirements of thelegislation prohibiting banks from holding equity securities in excess of their Tier 1 capital. In November 2015,
we announced that we would aim to reduce the balance of equity securities held for strategic purposes toapproximately 10% of our Tier 1 capital over a five year period. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, wesold down ¥150 billion of equity securities held in our strategic equity investment portfolio. As of March 31,
2017, the balance of such securities represented 16.6% of our Tier 1 capital. However, various factors, including
market conditions and changes in our Tier 1 capital ratio, may affect the amount of equity securities we should
sell and our ability to achieve the target as planned.
Investment securities decreased ¥2.42 trillion to ¥43.23 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥45.65 trillion asof March 31, 2016, primarily due to a decrease in our holding of Japanese government bonds primarily inresponse to the Bank of Japan’s monetary policy and measure to purchase such bonds in the market to stimulate
the economy by increasing liquidity and also as part of our asset and liability management and interest rate risk
management measures.
Investment securities other than available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities, which are nonmarketable
equity securities presented on our consolidated balance sheets as other investment securities, were primarily
carried at cost of ¥0.56 trillion as of March 31, 2017 and ¥0.55 trillion as of March 31, 2016, respectively,
because their fair values were not readily determinable.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, losses resulting from impairment of investment securities were
¥33.8 billion, a decrease of ¥3.4 billion compared to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. The decrease wasmainly due to a smaller impairment losses on nonmarketable equity securities.

Net unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities increased ¥82.7 billion to ¥3,794.2 billion as ofMarch 31, 2017, from ¥3,711.5 billion as of March 31, 2016. The increase primarily consisted of a ¥441.8 billion
increase in net unrealized gains on marketable equity securities, reflecting higher equity prices as of March 31,2017 compared to March 31, 2016. The increase was offset in part by a ¥309.9 billion decrease in net unrealized
gains on Japanese government and Japanese government agency bonds, reflecting a reduction in our holdings ofJapanese government bonds to manage the risk of losses resulting from declines in the values of Japanese
government bonds in a rising interest rate environment. We also recorded ¥13.0 billion of net unrealized losses
on foreign governments and official institutions bonds, particularly U.S. Treasury bonds, compared to ¥27.3
billion of net unrealized gains as of March 31, 2016 as interest rates rose in the United States.
The amortized cost of held-to-maturity securities decreased ¥279.4 billion between March 31, 2016 andMarch 31, 2017. The decrease was mainly due to early redemption of foreign asset-backed securities. Net
unrealized gains on held-to-maturity decreased ¥14.0 billion between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017,reflecting lower values of Japanese government bonds.

Cash and Due from Banks
Cash and due from banks increased ¥17.02 trillion to ¥25.68 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from¥8.66 trillion as of March 31, 2016. This increase was mainly because our commercial banking subsidiaries
deposited with the Bank of Japan a larger amount of cash received on sales and redemptions of Japanese
government bonds as the subsidiaries continued to reduce their holdings of such bonds. Customer deposits in ourcommercial banking subsidiaries increased mainly due to near-zero interest rates in Japan resulting in a shift ininvestor preference from investments in money markets to deposits. Cash and due from banks fluctuatessignificantly from day to day depending upon financial market conditions.
Interest-earning Deposits in Other Banks
Interest-earning deposits in other banks decreased ¥2.69 trillion to ¥38.33 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from
¥41.02 trillion as of March 31, 2016. This decrease was mainly due to a decrease in interest-earning deposits with
the Bank of Japan by our trust banking subsidiaries to reduce the adverse impact of negative interest rates onsuch deposits. Interest-earning deposits in other banks fluctuate significantly from day to day depending uponfinancial market conditions.
Trading Account Assets
Trading account assets decreased ¥9.51 trillion to ¥41.32 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥50.83 trillion
as of March 31, 2016. Trading account assets consist of trading account securities and trading derivative assets.
Trading account securities decreased ¥6.84 trillion to ¥22.49 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥29.33 trillion asof March 31, 2016. This decrease was mainly due to a reduction in the volume of U.S. Treasury bonds held byour commercial banking subsidiaries, particularly towards the end of the fiscal year, to manage the risk of losses
resulting from declines in the values of U.S. Treasury bonds in a rising interest rate environment in the UnitedStates. Trading derivative assets decreased ¥2.67 trillion to ¥18.83 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥21.50
trillion as of March 31, 2016. This decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in the fair values of interest rate
derivatives in our commercial banking subsidiaries, reflecting the rise in the yields of 10-year Japanese
government bonds from negative rates to around 0.05% after the U.S. presidential election in November 2016.
131

Investment Securities
Total investment securities decreased ¥2.42 trillion to ¥43.23 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥45.65
trillion as of March 31, 2016. This was mainly due to a reduction in our holding of Japanese government bonds
to manage the risk of losses resulting from declines in the values of Japanese government bonds in a risinginterest rate environment. Net unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities as of March 31, 2017 were ¥3.79
trillion, an increase of ¥0.08 trillion from ¥3.71 trillion as of March 31, 2016, mainly due to higher equity prices
as of March 31, 2017 compared to March 31, 2016. This increase was partially offset by a ¥0.31 trillion decreasein net unrealized gains on Japanese government bonds reflecting the increases in the yields on 10-year Japanese
government bonds from negative rates to around 0.05% after the U.S. presidential election in November 2016.
Deferred Tax Assets and Deferred Tax Liabilities
Deferred tax assets decreased ¥0.08 trillion to ¥0.08 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥0.16 trillion as ofMarch 31, 2016. Deferred tax assets decreased primarily due to recording of additional valuation allowance.
Deferred tax liabilities decreased ¥0.23 trillion to ¥0.41 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥0.64 trillion as ofMarch 31, 2016. This was primarily due to a decrease in net unrealized gains on trading securities and investment
securities as well as the impact of a release of deferred tax liabilities resulting from the expected reduction in thelocal tax rate for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018.
For more information, see “—A. Operating Results—Results of Operations—Income Tax Expense” andNote 7 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Total Liabilities
As of March 31, 2017, total liabilities were ¥282.42 trillion, an increase of ¥4.71 trillion from¥277.71 trillion as of March 31, 2016. This was primarily due to an increase of ¥8.96 trillion in deposits and anincrease of ¥5.78 trillion in long-term debt, partially offset by a decrease of ¥9.00 trillion in short-termborrowings.
Deposits
Deposits are our primary source of funds. The balance of domestic deposits increased ¥9.36 trillion to¥144.84 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥135.48 trillion as of March 31, 2016, while the balance of foreigndeposits decreased ¥0.40 trillion to ¥45.56 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥45.96 trillion as of March 31,
2016. The increase in domestic deposits was mainly due to near-zero interest rates in Japan resulting in a shift ininvestor preference from investments in money markets to deposits, particularly among corporate investors. The
decrease in foreign deposits was primarily due to a decrease in the Japanese yen amount of foreign currencydenominated deposits, reflecting the appreciation of the Japanese yen against the relevant foreign currencies.
The total average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased ¥4.10 trillion to ¥155.57 trillion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 from ¥151.46 trillion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
Short-term Borrowings
We use short-term borrowings as a funding source and in our management of interest rate risk. For
management of interest rate risk, short-term borrowings are used in asset and liability management operations tomatch interest rate risk exposure resulting from loans and other interest-earning assets and to manage funding
costs of various financial instruments at an appropriate level, based on our forecast of future interest rate levels.
Short-term borrowings consist of call money, funds purchased, payables under repurchase agreements, payables
under securities lending transactions, due to trust accounts and other short-term borrowings.
132

Short-term borrowings decreased ¥9.00 trillion to ¥34.91 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥43.91 trillion
as of March 31, 2016. This decrease was primarily attributable to a ¥6.03 trillion decrease in payables under
repurchase agreements as investor preference shifted from investments in money markets to deposits in the nearzero interest rate environment in Japan. This decrease was also attributable to a ¥3.00 trillion decrease in due totrust account, as a larger portion of the excess cash funds in MUTB’s trust account, which had temporarily been
lent to MUTB’s proprietary account after the Bank of Japan introduced its “quantitative and qualitative monetaryeasing with negative interest rates” policy in February 2016, was instead invested in the call money market.
Long-term Debt
Long-term debt increased ¥5.78 trillion to ¥27.74 trillion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥21.96 trillion as ofMarch 31, 2016. This increase was due to additional issuances of bonds by us to meet TLAC and other Basel III
requirements and an increase in long-term borrowings by our banking subsidiaries to diversify their funding
sources.
The average balance of long-term debt for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was ¥24.37 trillion, an
increase of ¥4.01 trillion from ¥20.36 trillion for the previous fiscal year.
The senior notes and subordinated bonds that MUFG issued for TLAC and other Basel III compliancepurposes are included in long-term debt. See “Recent Developments.”
Sources of Funding and Liquidity
Our primary source of liquidity is from a large balance of deposits, mainly ordinary deposits, certificates ofdeposit and time deposits. Time deposits have historically shown a high rollover rate among our corporate
customers and individual depositors. The average deposit balance increased from ¥173.94 trillion for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 to ¥181.24 trillion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. These deposits
provide us with a sizable source of stable and low-cost funds. Our average deposits, combined with our average
total equity of ¥15.01 trillion, funded 63.7% of our average total assets of ¥307.94 trillion during the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017. Our deposits exceeded our loans before allowance for credit losses by ¥72.19 trillion asof March 31, 2017 compared to ¥58.65 trillion as of March 31, 2016. As part of our asset and liability
management policy, a significant portion of the amount of Japanese yen-denominated funds exceeding our loans
has been deposited with the Bank of Japan or invested in Japanese government bonds in recent periods.
The remaining funding was primarily provided by short-term borrowings and long-term senior andsubordinated debt. Short-term borrowings consist of call money and funds purchased, payables under repurchaseagreements, payables under securities lending transactions, due to trust account, and other short-term borrowings.
From time to time, we have issued long-term instruments such as straight bonds with maturities between 4 to
10 years. The balance of our short-term borrowings as of March 31, 2017 was ¥34.91 trillion, and the averagebalance of short-term borrowings for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was ¥41.03 trillion. The balance of
our long-term debt as of March 31, 2017 was ¥27.74 trillion, and the average balance of long-term debt for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was ¥24.37 trillion. Liquidity may also be provided by the sale of financial
assets, including available-for-sale securities, trading account securities and loans. Additional liquidity may beprovided by the maturity of loans.

133We manage liquidity separately at certain of our foreign and domestic non-bank and banking subsidiaries
because they are subject to separate regulatory requirements, pursue different business models and havedistinctive liquidity risk profiles. We manage our group-wide liquidity on a consolidated basis based on the tests
and analyses conducted at the subsidiary level. Liquidity risk management measures at the subsidiary level
include the following:‰

Domestic banking subsidiaries—Our major domestic banking subsidiaries, BTMU and MUTB, set
liquidity and funding limits designed to maintain their respective requirements for funding from market
sources below pre-determined levels for certain periods (e.g., one-day, two-week and one-month). The
major domestic banking subsidiaries also monitor the balance of buffer assets they respectively hold,including Japanese government bonds and U.S. Treasury bonds, which can be used for cash funding
even in periods of stress. In addition, the major domestic banking subsidiaries regularly perform
liquidity stress testing designed to evaluate the impact of systemic market stress conditions andinstitution-specific stress events, including credit rating downgrades, on their liquidity positions;‰

Foreign banking subsidiaries—Our major foreign banking subsidiaries, MUAH and Krungsri, monitors
various liquidity metrics, including total available liquidity, the net non-core funding dependence ratio,
and minimum liquidity assets, as a tool to maintain a sufficient amount of liquidity and diversity offunding sources to allow the major foreign banking subsidiaries to meet expected obligations in both
stable and adverse conditions. In addition, the major foreign banking subsidiaries regularly conduct
stress testing, which incorporates both bank-specific and systemic market scenarios that would
adversely affect its liquidity position, to facilitate the identification of appropriate remedial measures tohelp ensure that it maintains adequate liquidity in adverse conditions;‰

Securities subsidiaries—Our securities subsidiaries implement liquidity and funding limits designed tomaintain their requirements for funding from market sources below pre-determined levels for specified
periods. In addition, the securities subsidiaries regularly conduct analyses designed to assess the period
for which they can continue to meet their respective liquidity requirements by selling or pledging assets
they respectively hold under scenarios where they are unable to access any additional sources offinancing in the market; and‰Non-bank subsidiaries—Our non-bank subsidiaries, including Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS, regularly
conduct cash flow analyses designed to assess their ability to generate sufficient liquidity for specified
periods, considering the cash and cash equivalents as well as deposits they respectively hold, and theirrespective operating income and expenses under scenarios where they are no longer able to obtainfunding from markets through issuance of commercial paper, bonds or other instruments. The non-banksubsidiaries also conduct analyses to ensure sufficient liquidity and funding are available from our banksubsidiaries and other financial institutions outside of our group of companies.

We collect and evaluate the results of the stress tests individually performed by our major subsidiaries toensure our ability to meet our liquidity requirements on a consolidated basis in stress scenarios.
We manage our funding sources by setting limits on, or targets for, our holdings of buffer assets, primarily
Japanese government bonds. As of March 31, 2017, we held ¥25.83 trillion of Japanese government bonds andgovernment agency bonds as available-for-sale securities. We also regard deposits with the Bank of Japan as
buffer assets. Our commercial banking subsidiaries manage their funding sources through liquidity-supplying
products such as commitment lines. In addition, our commercial banking subsidiaries manage their funding
sources through a liquidity gap, or the excess of cash inflows over cash outflows.
In December 2014, Moody’s downgraded the long-term credit ratings of BTMU and MUTB by one-notchfrom Aa3 to A1, the long-term credit rating of MUSHD by one-notch from A2 to A3, and the short-term credit
rating of MUSHD by one-notch from P-1 to P-2. These downgrades followed the downgrade of the rating
assigned to the Government of Japan from Aa3 to A1. In November 2015, Standard and Poor’s changed thecredit rating outlook for MUFG, BTMU and MUTB from stable to negative, following S&P’s revision of its
134view on the economic risk trend in Japan’s banking sector from stable to negative. In addition, in June 2016,
Fitch changed the credit rating outlook of MUFG, BTMU and MUTB from stable to negative, following Fitch’schange in the credit rating outlook for the Government of Japan from stable to negative. Although these credit
rating and outlook changes have not resulted, and are not currently expected to result, in a material adverse
impact on us, a further downgrade of the credit ratings assigned to us or our major subsidiaries could result inhigher funding costs and other adverse consequences. See “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks
Related to Our Business—A downgrade of our credit ratings could adversely affect our ability to access andmaintain liquidity.
Liquidity Requirements for Banking Institutions in Japan
Starting in June 2015, banks and bank holding companies in Japan are required to disclose their LCRs
calculated in accordance with the methodology prescribed in the FSA guidance that has been adopted to
implement the relevant Basel III standard. A minimum LCR of 80% is required in the calendar year 2017, andthe required minimum ratio is expected to be raised annually by 10 percentage points to 100% by the calendar
year 2019. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—
Japan—Liquidity Coverage Ratio.”

Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group shareholders’ equity decreased ¥285.1 billion to ¥13,985.5 billion as ofMarch 31, 2017 from ¥14,270.6 billion as of March 31, 2016.
Capital surplus decreased ¥2.3 billion to ¥5,956.6 billion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥5,958.9 billion as ofMarch 31, 2016. This decrease was mainly due to our acquisition of shares of certain subsidiaries from
non-controlling interests.
Retained earnings decreased ¥48.7 billion to ¥4,171.2 billion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥4,219.9 billion asof March 31, 2016, reflecting the lower net income of our banking and securities subsidiaries for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017. We decided to pay our year-end dividend of ¥9 per share of common stock for the six
months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in an annual dividend of ¥18 per share of common stock for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2017.

Net unrealized gains on investment securities, net of taxes, increased ¥37.5 billion to ¥2,032.8 billion as ofMarch 31, 2017 from ¥1,995.3 billion as of March 31, 2016. The increase was mainly due to higher in equity
prices as of March 31, 2017 compared to March 31, 2016.
Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes, other than net unrealized gains on investment
securities decreased ¥57.3 billion to ¥248.6 billion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥305.9 billion as of March 31,
2016. The decrease was mainly due to ¥137.3 billion of negative net change in the balance of foreign currencytranslation adjustments, reflecting the appreciation of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar and other major
currencies.
Treasury stock increased ¥214.3 billion to ¥514.0 billion as of March 31, 2017 from ¥299.7 billion as ofMarch 31, 2016, mostly as a result of repurchases made under our stock repurchase programs. See “Recent
Developments—Implementation of Share Repurchase Programs.”
As a result of the foregoing, total equity decreased ¥83.6 billion to ¥14,764.7 billion as of March 31, 2017from ¥14,848.3 billion as of March 31, 2016. The ratio of total equity to total assets decreased 0.11 percentage
points to 4.97% as of March 31, 2017 from 5.08% as of March 31, 2016.
Due to our holdings of a large amount of marketable equity securities and the volatility of the equity
markets in Japan, changes in the fair value of marketable equity securities, which are classified asavailable-for-sale investment securities, have significantly affected our total equity in recent years. The following
table presents information relating to the accumulated net unrealized gains, net of taxes, in respect ofavailable-for-sale investment securities as of March 31, 2016 and 2017:

Capital Adequacy
We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements promulgated by the regulatory authorities of thecountries in which we operate. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in mandatory actions
being taken by regulators that could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Moreover, if our capital ratios are perceived to be low, our counterparties may avoid entering into transactions
with us, which in turn could negatively affect our business and operations. For further information, see“Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—We may not be able to maintainour capital ratios above minimum required levels, which could result in the suspension of some or all of ouroperations.”
We continually monitor our risk-adjusted capital ratio and leverage ratio closely, and manage our operations
in consideration of the capital requirements. These ratios are affected not only by fluctuations in the value of ourassets, including our credit risk assets such as loans and equity securities, the risk weights of which depend on
the borrowers’ or issuers’ internal ratings, marketable securities and deferred tax assets, but also by fluctuationsin the value of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies and by general price levels ofJapanese equity securities.
Capital Requirements for Banking Institutions in Japan
Under Japanese regulatory capital requirements, our consolidated capital components, including Common
Equity Tier 1, Tier 1, and Tier 2 capital and risk-weighted assets, are calculated based on our consolidated
financial statements prepared under Japanese GAAP. Each of the consolidated and stand-alone capitalcomponents and risk-weighted assets of our banking subsidiaries in Japan is also calculated based on
consolidated and non-consolidated financial statements prepared under Japanese GAAP.

Certain Basel III provisions were adopted by the FSA with transitional measures and became effective
March 31, 2013. Various Basel III measures are being phased in from the calendar year 2013, including those
designed to raise the level of minimum capital requirements and to establish an internationally harmonized
leverage ratio and a global minimum liquidity standard.
Effective March 31, 2016, the FSA’s capital conservation buffer, global systematically important bank, or
G-SIB, surcharge, and countercyclical buffer requirements became applicable to Japanese banking institutions
with international operations conducted through foreign offices. The requirements are currently being phased inand, as of March 31, 2017, we are required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of 1.25% and a G-SIB
surcharge of 0.75% in addition to the 4.50% minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio. As of the same date,no countercyclical buffer is applicable to us. When fully implemented on March 31, 2019, we will be required tomaintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, a G-SIB surcharge of 1.5%, and a countercyclical buffer of up to
2.5%, assuming we will be in Bucket 2 of the G-SIB list. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business
Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan—Capital adequacy.”
We have been granted approval by the FSA to exclude the majority of our investment in Morgan Stanleyfrom being subject to double gearing adjustments. The approval was granted for a 10-year period, but theapproval amount will be phased out by 20% each year starting from March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2017, afull application of double gearing adjustments with respect to our investment in Morgan Stanley would have
reduced our Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio by approximately 0.8%.
Leverage Requirements for Banking Institutions in JapanWe are required to disclose our consolidated leverage ratio calculated in accordance with the methodology
prescribed in the FSA guidance that has been adopted to implement the relevant Basel III standard. The leverage
ratio is designed for monitoring and preventing the build-up of excessive leverage in the banking sector and isexpressed as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to total balance sheet assets adjusted in accordance with the FSA
guidance. The details of the leverage ratio requirements are currently under discussion by global standard-settingorganizations, including the Group of Central Bank Governors and Heads of Supervision and the BaselCommittee of Banking Supervision. The final leverage ratio requirements, including the currently expected
minimum leverage ratio of 3% and any additional requirements for G-SIBs, are expected to be implemented in
the calendar year 2018. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision andRegulation—Japan—Capital adequacy.”137

Note:
(1) Effective March 31, 2016, the FSA’s capital conservation buffer, G-SIB surcharge and countercyclical buffer requirements became
applicable to Japanese banking institutions with international operations conducted through foreign offices. As of March 31, 2016, theminimum capital ratios required included a capital conservation buffer of 0.625% and a G-SIB surcharge of 0.375%. As of the same date,no countercyclical buffer was required. As of March 31, 2017, the minimum capital ratios required included a capital conservation bufferof 1.25% and a G-SIB surcharge of 0.75%. As of the same date, no countercyclical buffer was required.

Management believes that, as of March 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all capital adequacy
requirements to which we were subject.
Our Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio as of March 31, 2017 was higher compared to the ratio as ofMarch 31, 2016 due to an increase in our Common Equity Tier 1 capital, more than offsetting the impact ofhigher risk-weighted assets. The increase in our Common Equity Tier 1 capital was mainly due to an increase inretained earnings and an increase in the amount of other comprehensive income used for the calculation ofcapital. The higher risk-weighted assets mainly reflected an increase in credit risk caused by the higher loanbalance and the higher stock values.

Capital Requirements for Banking Institutions in the United States
In the United States, MUAH and MUB are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administeredby the U.S. Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet the applicable minimum capital requirements can initiate
certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have amaterial effect on MUAH’s consolidated financial statements.
For a more detailed discussion of the applicable capital requirements, see “Item 4.B. Information on the
Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—United States.” See also Note 22 to ourconsolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
In addition, as foreign banking organizations that have U.S. branches and agencies and also as entities thatare controlled by MUFG, BTMU and MUTB are subject to the FRB’s requirements.

Management believes that, as of December 31, 2016, MUAH and MUB were in compliance with all capital
adequacy requirements to which they were subject.
As of December 31, 2015 and 2016, the OCC categorized MUB as “well-capitalized.” To be categorized as“well-capitalized,” MUB must maintain minimum ratios of Total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets and ofTier I capital to quarterly average assets (leverage ratio) as set forth in the table. There have been no conditions
or events since December 31, 2016 that would cause management to believe that MUB’s category has changed.
For further information, see Note 22 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in thisAnnual Report.
Capital Requirements for Securities Firms in Japan and Overseas
We have securities subsidiaries in Japan and overseas, which are also subject to regulatory capitalrequirements. In Japan, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan and related ordinances require
financial instruments firms to maintain a minimum capital ratio of 120% calculated as a percentage of capital
accounts less certain fixed assets, as determined in accordance with Japanese GAAP, against amounts equivalent
to market, counterparty credit and operations risks. Specific guidelines are issued as a ministerial ordinancewhich details the definition of essential components of the capital ratios, including capital, deductible fixed asset
items and risks, and related measures. Failure to maintain a minimum capital ratio will trigger mandatory
regulatory actions. A capital ratio of less than 140% will call for additional regulatory reporting, a capital ratio ofless than 120% may result in an order to change the method of business, and a capital ratio of less than 100%
may lead to a suspension of all or part of the business for a period of time and cancellation of a registration.
Overseas securities subsidiaries are subject to the relevant regulatory capital requirements of the countries orjurisdictions in which they operate.
Capital Ratio of MUMSSAs of March 31, 2017, MUMSS’ capital accounts less certain fixed assets of ¥426.1 billion on a stand-alone
basis represented 323.0% of the total amounts equivalent to market, counterparty credit and operations risks. Asof the same date, MUMSS’ capital accounts less certain fixed assets of ¥451.2 billion on a consolidated basis
represented 324.7% of the total amounts equivalent to market, counterparty credit and operations risks. As of
March 31, 2016, MUMSS’ capital accounts less certain fixed assets of ¥416.1 billion on a stand-alone basis
represented 278.1% of the total amounts equivalent to market, counterparty credit and operations risks. As of thesame date, MUMSS’ capital accounts less certain fixed assets of ¥441.1 billion on a consolidated basis
represented 279.3% of the total amounts equivalent to market, counterparty credit and operations risks. Thesefigures are calculated in accordance with Japanese GAAP, pursuant to the Financial Instruments and Exchange
Act of Japan.

Non-exchange Traded Contracts Accounted for at Fair Value
The use of non-exchange traded or over-the-counter contracts provides us with the ability to adapt to thevaried requirements of a wide customer base while mitigating market risks. Non-exchange traded contracts areaccounted for at fair value, which is generally based on pricing models or quoted prices for instruments withsimilar characteristics. Gains or losses on non-exchange traded contracts are included in “Trading account profits(losses)—net” in our consolidated statements of income included elsewhere in this Annual Report. The following
table summarizes the changes in the fair value of non-exchange traded contracts for the fiscal years ended
March 31, 2016 and 2017:

See Note 25 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report for a
description of the nature of our guarantees and other off-balance sheet instruments.
The contractual amounts of these guarantees and other off-balance sheet instruments represent the amounts
at risk if the contracts were to be fully drawn upon as a result of a subsequent default by our customer and a
decline in the value of the underlying collateral. Since many of these commitments expire without being drawn
upon, the total contractual or notional amounts of these commitments do not necessarily represent our future cash
requirements. As of March 31, 2017, approximately 58% of these commitments have an expiration date within
one year, 34% have an expiration date from one year to five years, and 8% have an expiration date after five
years. Risks relating to off-balance sheet instruments are monitored and managed as a part of our risk
management system as set forth in “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Credit, Market andOther Risk.” We evaluate off-balance sheet arrangements in the manner described in Note 1 to our consolidated
financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
The fees generated specifically from off-balance sheet arrangements are not a dominant source of ouroverall fees and commissions.
Some of our off-balance sheet arrangements are related to activities of special purpose entities, most ofwhich are VIEs. For further information, see Note 26 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewherein this Annual Report.

Notes:(1) Contractual obligations related to estimated interest expense on time deposit obligations are calculated by applying the March 31, 2017weighted-average interest rate on outstanding time deposits.
(2) The total amount of expected future pension payments is not included in the above table or the total amount of commitments outstanding
as of March 31, 2017. We expect to contribute approximately ¥90.5 billion for pension and other benefits for our employees for the fiscal
year ending March 31, 2018. For further information, see Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in thisAnnual Report.
(3) The above table does not include unrecognized tax benefits and interest and penalties related to income tax associated with the guidanceon accounting for uncertainty in income taxes as we cannot estimate reasonably the timing of cash settlement of the liabilities forunrecognized tax benefits. The total amount of the liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits is ¥7.9 billion as of March 31, 2017. Amongthe liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by an amount notexceeding ¥1.0 billion during the next twelve months. For further information, see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements
included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Purchase obligations include any legally binding contractual obligations that require us to spend more than¥100 million annually under the contract. Purchase obligations in the table primarily include commitments tomake investments into corporate recovery or private equity investment funds.

Annual Base Salary
Annual base salaries were paid to our directors (including outside directors) and corporate executive officers
in the form of monthly cash installment payments. The aggregate annual base salary paid to our directors(excluding outside directors) and corporate executive officers for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was¥1,237 million. The aggregate annual base salary paid to our outside directors for the same period was¥125 million.
Performance-based Stock Compensation Plans
Under our performance-based stock compensation plans, qualified directors (excluding outside directors anddirectors serving as audit committee members), corporate executive officers and others of MUFG and its majordomestic subsidiaries are assigned, on a monthly basis, (1) points based on their job responsibilities, or
non-adjustable points, and (2) additional points based on their job responsibilities which are adjusted at the endof each fiscal year and at the end of each plan period to reflect the extent to which a financial performance target
determined by the compensation committee is attained, or adjustable points. Each plan period corresponds to theperiod covered by the three-year medium-term business plan of MUFG. Each accumulated point represents aright to receive one share of MUFG common stock from a trust established in Japan to administer the plan grants
as determined by the compensation committee.
The right to receive shares of MUFG common stock in exchange for non-adjustable points becomes vested
and nonforfeitable, and the shares are delivered, upon the grantee’s departure from his or her job responsibilities
as a director or officer. The right to receive shares of MUFG common stock in exchange for adjustable points
becomes vested and nonforfeitable, and the shares are delivered, at the end of each plan period. The vesting ineither case is subject to conditions imposed by the compensation committee, including non-engagement inmisconduct. A portion of the shares subject to a grantee’s vested right may be delivered in cash.
The grantees are entitled to “dividend equivalent credits” on their granted but unvested rights under the plan
when MUFG pays dividends to its shareholders. The credit is equal to the dividends that the grantees would havereceived on the shares had the shares been issued to the grantees in exchange for their granted but unvested rights
under the plan, less expenses relating to the administration of the plan. Accumulated dividend equivalents arepaid to grantees at the time of the delivery of the shares.
The shares to be delivered to grantees are purchased on the open market by the trustee of the trust pursuant
to a trust agreement among MUFG, the trustee and the independent caretaker of the trust. Each plan is funded in
cash up to a maximum aggregate amount determined by our compensation committee, which is currently¥25.4 billion.
The initial performance-based stock compensation plan commenced on July 1, 2016. The plan is tied to
MUFG’s current medium-term business plan for the three-year period ending March 31, 2018. The plan was
funded with ¥9.8 billion in cash, and 18,785,400 shares of MUFG common stock were purchased by the trusteeof the trust for the plan in May 2016. The plan was adopted after our compensation committee decided in May
2016 to cease to provide any additional stock acquisition rights under our previous stock-based compensation
structure and to introduce the performance-based stock compensation plan.
The second performance-based stock compensation plan commenced on December 1, 2016. The plan was
funded with 8.8 billion in cash, and an aggregate of 13,004,300 shares of MUFG common stock were purchasedby the trustee of the trust for the plan in November 2016 and May 2017. The plan was adopted to replace theoutstanding stock acquisition rights under our previous stock-based compensation structure. Upon the adoptionof the plan, the stock acquisition rights that had been allotted to grantees but remained unexercised under thethen-outstanding stock-based compensation plans were exchanged for points under the performance-based stockcompensation plan, and the rights to receive shares of MUFG common stock represented by these points werevested.

financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. See also “Item 16E. Purchases of Equity
Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers.”
Stock-based Compensation Plans
We have issued stock acquisition rights to further motivate our directors (excluding outside directors) andcertain of our officers to contribute to the improvement of our stock prices and profits. The number of stockacquisition rights granted to each director and officer was determined by comprehensively taking into accounteach grantee’s seniority of the position held at MUFG or its subsidiaries, experience and contribution to our
performance throughout the period of the grantee’s service. On June 27, 2013, our shareholders approved
modifications to the previous shareholder authorization for granting stock acquisition rights to our directors,
corporate auditors and certain of our officers so that no outside directors or corporate auditors (including outside
corporate auditors) would be eligible for any stock-based compensation plan adopted by the board of directors on
or after that date.
In June 2015, our previous governance framework with the board of directors and a separate board ofcorporate auditors was replaced with our current governance framework with the board of directors and board
committees. Under our previous governance framework, the maximum aggregate amount of each type ofcompensation for our directors and corporate auditors was approved at a general meeting of our shareholders.
The amount and allocation of compensation for each director were then proposed to, and voted upon by, theboard of directors. The amount and allocation of compensation for each corporate auditor were determinedthrough discussions and agreement among the corporate auditors. The nomination and compensation committee
deliberated and made proposals to the board of directors regarding matters relating to, among other things, thecompensation of our directors. For information regarding our governance framework, see “—C. Board
Practices.”
As part of our compensation structure, on June 28, 2007, our shareholders approved the creation of a stockbased compensation plan for our directors, corporate auditors and certain of our officers. On November 21, 2007,

Bonuses
We from time to time paid cash bonuses to our directors and corporate executive officers to further motivatethem to contribute to the improvement of our stock prices and profits if such bonuses were deemed appropriate
based on a balanced scorecard approach taking into account the results of operations of the MUFG Group andeach director’s individual performance of his or her duties as a director in light of both quantitative andqualitative criteria, including our medium-term strategy for improving our corporate value. None of the outside
directors is eligible to receive a cash bonus. The compensation committee determines the cash bonus for eachdirector and officer based on our financial results and his or her job performance for the preceding fiscal year aswell as his or her seniority and experience. The aggregate cash bonus paid to our directors and corporate
executive officers for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was ¥307 million.
Retirement Allowances
Prior to June 28, 2007, in accordance with customary Japanese practice, when a director or corporate auditor
retired, a proposal to pay a retirement allowance was submitted at the annual ordinary general meeting ofshareholders for approval. The retirement allowance consisted of a one-time payment of a portion of theallowance paid at the time of retirement and periodic payments of the remaining amount for a prescribed numberof years. After the shareholders’ approval was obtained, the retirement allowance for a director or corporate
auditor was fixed by the board of directors or by consultation among the corporate auditors in accordance with
our internal regulations and practice and generally reflected the position of the director or corporate auditor at thetime of retirement, the length of his service as a director or corporate auditor and his contribution to our
performance. Historically, MUFG did not set aside reserves for any retirement payments for directors andcorporate auditors made under this practice.
Pursuant to a one-time shareholders’ approval in June 2007, retirement allowances are paid in cash to thedirectors and corporate auditors who were elected prior to that date at the time of their retirement. A reserve inthe total amount of such retirement allowances was set aside as of September 30, 2007. No retirement allowance
was paid in cash by MUFG and its subsidiaries pursuant to the one-time shareholder approval during the fiscal158

year ended March 31, 2017 to our directors (including outside directors) and corporate auditors (including
outside corporate auditors) who have retired from their respective positions held at MUFG or, if such directors
and corporate auditors concurrently held positions at MUFG’s subsidiaries, who have retired from such positions.
MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation Stock Bonus Plan
Upon the integration of the U.S. branch banking operations of BTMU with MUB’s operations on July 1,
2014, MUAH assumed the obligations under the BTMU Headquarters for the Americas, or HQA, Stock Bonus
Plan described below. Effective June 8, 2015, MUAH amended and restated the BTMU HQA Stock Bonus Plan
as the MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation Stock Bonus Plan, or the MUAH Stock Bonus Plan.
Under the MUAH Stock Bonus Plan, qualified key employees of MUAH are granted Restricted Share Units,
or RSUs, representing a right to receive American Depositary Receipts, or ADRs, evidencing ADSs, eachexchangeable for one share of MUFG common stock, from an independent trust established to administer theplan grants, upon the satisfaction of vesting conditions, to be determined pursuant to the plan as well as a
Restricted Share Unit Agreement between MUAH and the grantees.
Unless otherwise provided in the relevant Restricted Share Unit Agreement, RSUs become vested andnonforfeitable as follows: one-third (33 1/3%) of a grantee’s RSUs vests on each one year anniversary of the dateof the grant such that all of the RSUs become fully vested after three years from the grant date so long as the
grantee satisfies the specified continuous service requirements and any other conditions under the applicable plan
documents, subject to certain clawback and notice period provisions.
Under the MUAH Stock Bonus Plan, the grantees are entitled to “dividend equivalent credits” on their
granted but unvested RSUs when MUFG pays dividends to its shareholders. The credit is equal to the dividends
that the grantees would have received on the shares had the shares been issued to the grantees in exchange for
their granted but unvested RSUs. Accumulated dividend equivalents are paid to grantees in whole shares on anannual basis. Any fractional share will be paid to the participants in cash.
Grants made under the MUAH Stock Bonus Plan are not entitled to any dividend rights, voting rights, orother stockholder rights unless and until RSUs are vested and ADSs are delivered to grantees.
The ADSs to be delivered to grantees will be purchased on the open market by the trustee of the
independent trust pursuant to a trust agreement between MUAH and the trustee. As of July 10, 2017, 44,051,308
RSUs have been granted under the MUAH Stock Bonus Plan, of which 30,806,644 RSUs were outstanding as ofJuly 10, 2017.
For more information on the MUAH Stock Bonus Plan, see Note 33 to our consolidated financial statements

BTMU Headquarters for the Americas Stock Bonus Plan
As described above, the BTMU HQA Stock Bonus Plan was amended and restated as the MUAH Stock
Bonus Plan as of June 8, 2015.
Under the BTMU HQA Stock Bonus Plan, qualified key employees of BTMU HQA were granted RSUs,
representing a right to receive ADRs, evidencing ADSs, each exchangeable for one share of MUFG common
stock, from an independent trust established to administer the plan grants, upon the satisfaction of vesting
conditions. The RSUs vest pro-rata on each anniversary of the grant date and become fully vested three years
from the grant date so long as the grantee satisfies the specified continuous service requirements and any otherconditions under the plan documents as well as a Restricted Share Unit Agreement between BTMU HQA and the
grantees.
159

Grants previously made under the BTMU HQA Plan were not entitled to any dividend rights, voting rights,
or other stockholder rights unless and until RSUs are vested and ADSs are delivered to grantees.
The ADSs to be delivered to grantees are purchased on the open market by the trustee of the independent
trust pursuant to a trust agreement between BTMU HQA and the trustee. Through June 7, 2015, 5,367,466 RSUs
were granted under the previous BTMU HQA Plan, of which 18,686 RSUs were outstanding as of July 10, 2017.

subsidiaries were paid some or a portion of annual bonuses in the form of RSUs representing a right to receive
ADRs, evidencing ADSs, each exchangeable for one share of MUFG common stock, from an independent trust
established to administer the plan grants upon the satisfaction of vesting conditions as determined pursuant to theplan as well as a Restricted Share Unit Agreement between UNBC and the grantees.
Unless otherwise provided in the relevant Restricted Share Unit Agreement, RSUs become vested andnonforfeitable as follows: one-third (331/3%) of a grantee’s RSUs vests on each one year anniversary of the dateof the grant such that all of the RSUs become fully vested after three years from the grant date so long as the
grantee remains an employee of UNBC or its subsidiaries.
Under the UNBC Plan, the grantees were not entitled to any dividend rights, voting rights, or otherstockholder rights unless and until RSUs are vested and ADSs are delivered to grantees.
The ADSs to be delivered to grantees are purchased on the open market by the trustee of the independent
trust pursuant to a trust agreement between UNBC and the trustee. As of July 10, 2017, 26,734,407 RSUs havebeen granted under the plan, of which no RSUs were outstanding. No further RSUs will be granted under the

Board Practices

Our articles of incorporation provide for a board of directors with statutorily mandated nominating andgovernance committee, audit committee and compensation committee, each consisting of members of the boardof directors. We have also elected, though not statutorily mandated under the Companies Act of Japan, toestablish a risk committee consisting of directors and outside professionals. In May 2016, we established a
U.S. risk committee pursuant to the U.S. enhanced prudential standards for foreign banking organizations. Our
corporate executive officers are responsible for executing and managing our business operations based on adelegation of authority by the board of directors, and our directors set our key management policies and oversee
the execution of duties by these corporate executive officers.
In June 2015, our shareholders approved an amendment to our articles of incorporation to adopt our current
governance framework with a board of directors and board committees. We previously had a governanceframework with a board of directors and a board of corporate auditors. The Companies Act permits three types ofgovernance system for large companies such as MUFG: (1) a company with a nominating committee, an audit
committee and a compensation committee, (2) a company with a board of corporate auditors, and (3) a company
with an audit and supervisory committee. Our previous governance framework was based on the second system,and our newly adopted governance system is based on the first system.
With respect to companies adopting the first system, including MUFG, each of the nominating, audit andcompensation committees must consist of members of the board of directors, and the majority of each committee
must be outside directors as defined by the Companies Act. In addition, the board of directors must appoint
corporate executive officers (shikkoyaku) to execute and manage the business operations of the company under
the authority delegated by the board of directors. Based on this system, our current governance framework is
designed to facilitate more flexible and swifter decision-making and increase transparency in our management
processes.

161

An “outside director” is defined by the Companies Act as a person who meets all of the following
conditions:‰the person is not currently, and has not been in the ten years prior to his or her assumption of office as
outside director, an executive director, who is a director concurrently performing an executive role(gyomu shikko torishimariyaku), a corporate executive officer, a manager (shihainin), or any other typeof employee of the company or any of its subsidiaries;‰

if the person has been a non-executive director, a corporate auditor, or an accounting adviser (kaikei
sanyo) of the company or any of its subsidiaries within the ten years prior to his or her assumption of
office as outside director, the person was not an executive director, a corporate executive officer, amanager or any other type of employee of the company or any of its subsidiary in the ten years prior tohis or her assumption of office as such;‰the person is not a director, a corporate executive officer, a manager or any other type of employee ofthe company’s parent company, or a person who controls the company;‰

the person is not an executive director, a corporate executive officer, a manager or any other type of
employee of another subsidiary of the company’s parent company; and‰the person is not the spouse or a family member within the second degree of kinship of a director, acorporate executive officer, a manager, or any other type of important employee of the company or aperson who controls the company.

Board of Directors
Our board of directors consists of directors who are elected at a general meeting of shareholders. Under our
articles of incorporation, the number of directors may not exceed 20. We currently have 18 directors, eight ofwhom are outside directors and two of whom are internal non-executive directors.
The regular term of office of a director is one year from the date of election, and directors may serve theirterms until the close of the annual general meeting of shareholders held for the following year after their election.
Directors may serve any number of consecutive terms.
Under the Companies Act, the board of directors has the authority to determine our basic management
policy, make decisions on the execution and management of our business operations, and oversee the execution
by the corporate executive officers of their duties. The board of directors may delegate, to the extent permitted by
the Companies Act, the authority to make decisions on the execution and management of our business
operations. Our board of directors has delegated most of this authority to the corporate executive officers.
The board of directors elects the Chairman and the Deputy Chairman from among its members and appoints
key management members based on recommendations submitted to it by the nominating committee.
Under the Companies Act, a resolution of the board of directors is required if any director wishes to engage
in any business that is in competition with us or any transaction with us. Additionally, no director may vote on a
proposal, arrangement or contract in which that director is deemed to be particularly interested.
Neither the Companies Act nor our articles of incorporation contain special provisions as to the borrowing
power exercisable by a director, the retirement age of our directors, or a requirement of our directors to hold any
shares of our capital stock.
Under the Companies Act and our articles of incorporation, we may exempt, by resolution of the board of
directors, our directors from liabilities to MUFG arising in connection with their failure to execute their duties ingood faith and without gross negligence within the limits stipulated by applicable laws and regulations. In
162

addition, we have entered into a liability limitation agreement with each outside director and non-executive
director which limits the maximum amount of their liability to MUFG arising in connection with a failure to
execute their duties in good faith and without gross negligence to the greater of either ¥10 million or theaggregate sum of the amounts prescribed in Paragraph 1 of Article 425 of the Companies Act and Articles 113
and 114 of the Companies Act Enforcement Regulations.
None of our directors is party to a service contract with MUFG or any of its subsidiaries that provides forbenefits upon end of their director term.
Nominating Committee
Our nominating committee, which we call the nominating and governance committee, determines thecontents of proposals regarding the election and removal of director candidates to be submitted to general

Financial Information.

Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information

The information required by this item is set forth in our consolidated financial statements starting on
page F-1 of this Annual Report and in “Selected Statistical Data” starting on page A-1 of this Annual Report.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are involved in various litigation matters and other legal proceedings, including
regulatory actions. Although the final resolution of any such matters and proceedings could have a material effecton our consolidated operating results for a particular reporting period, based on our current knowledge andconsultation with legal counsel, we believe the current litigation matters and other legal proceedings, whenultimately determined, will not materially affect our results of operations or financial position. For more
information, see “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—We may become
subject to regulatory actions or other legal proceedings relating to our transactions or other aspects of ouroperations, which could result in significant financial losses, restrictions on our operations and damage to our
reputation.” and Note 27 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Distributions
Our board of directors submits a recommendation for a year-end dividend for our shareholders’ approval at
the ordinary general meeting of shareholders customarily held in June of each year. The year-end dividend is168

usually distributed immediately following shareholders’ approval to holders of record at the end of the preceding
fiscal year. In addition to year-end dividends, we may make cash distributions by way of interim dividends toshareholders of record as of September 30 of each year as distribution of surplus by resolution of our board of
directors. Year-end dividends in the amount of ¥9 per share of our common stock (in addition to interim
dividends of ¥9 per share of our common stock) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 were approved byshareholders at the ordinary general meeting of shareholders held on June 29, 2017.
See “Item 10.B. Additional Information—Memorandum and Articles of Association” for additional
information on our dividends policy.
Under the Japanese foreign exchange regulations currently in effect, dividends paid on shares held by
non-residents of Japan may be converted into any foreign currency and repatriated abroad. Under the terms of thedeposit agreement pursuant to which ADSs are issued, the depositary is required, to the extent that in its
judgment it can convert Japanese yen on a reasonable basis into U.S. dollars and transfer the resulting
U.S. dollars to the United States, to convert all cash dividends that it receives in respect of deposited shares into
U.S. dollars and to distribute the amount received, after deduction of any applicable withholding taxes, to theholders of ADSs. See “Item 10.D. Additional Information—Exchange Controls” and “Item 12.D. Description of
Securities Other than Equity Securities—American Depositary Shares.”

Memorandum and Articles of Association

Our Corporate Purpose
Article 2 of our Articles of Incorporation provides that our corporate purpose is to carry on the following
businesses:‰

administration of management of banks, trust banks, specialized securities companies, insurancecompanies or other companies which we may own as our subsidiaries under the Banking Law;‰any businesses incidental to the foregoing businesses mentioned in the preceding item; and‰any other businesses in which bank holding companies are permitted to engage under the Banking Law
in addition to the foregoing businesses mentioned in the preceding two items.

Board of Directors
For discussion of the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation as they apply to our directors, see“Item 6.C. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—Board Practices.”
Common Stock
We summarize below the material provisions of our Articles of Incorporation, our share handlingregulations and the Companies Act as they relate to a type of joint stock company known as kabushiki kaisha,within which we fall. Because it is a summary, this discussion should be read together with our Articles ofIncorporation and share handling regulations, which have been filed as exhibits to this Annual Report.
170

GeneralA joint stock company is a legal entity incorporated under the Companies Act. The investment and rights ofthe shareholders of a joint stock company are represented by shares of stock in the company and shareholders’liability is limited to the amount of the subscription for the shares.
As of June 29, 2017, our authorized common share capital was comprised of 33,000,000,000 shares ofcommon stock with no par value.
As of March 31, 2017, a total of 14,168,853,820 shares of common stock (including 380,944,204 shares ofcommon stock held by us and our consolidated subsidiaries as treasury stock) had been issued. Each of the sharesissued and outstanding was fully paid and non-assessable.
As of June 29, 2017, we were authorized to issue 800,000,000 shares of preferred stock, including
400,000,000 shares of each of the second to fourth series of class 5 preferred stock (provided the aggregate
number of shares authorized to be issued with respect to the four series of class 5 preferred stock does not exceed
400,000,000 shares), 200,000,000 shares of each of the first to fourth series of class 6 preferred stock (provided
the aggregate number of shares authorized to be issued with respect to the four series of class 6 preferred stock
does not exceed 200,000,000 shares), 200,000,000 shares of each of the first to fourth series of class 7 preferredstock (provided the aggregate number of shares authorized to be issued with respect to the four series of class 7
preferred stock does not exceed 200,000,000 shares).
We may issue shares from our authorized but unissued share capital following a resolution to that effect byour board of directors. An increase in our authorized share capital is only possible by amendment of our Articles
of Incorporation, which generally requires shareholders’ special approval.
In order to assert shareholder rights against us, a shareholder must have its name and address registered on
our register of shareholders, in accordance with the Companies Act and our share handling regulations. The
registered holder of deposited shares underlying the ADSs is the depositary for the ADSs, or its nominee.
Accordingly, holders of ADSs will not be able to assert shareholder rights other than as provided in theagreement among us, the depositary and the holders of the ADSs.
Under the Act on Book-Entry Transfer of Company Bonds, Shares, etc., the shares of all Japanesecompanies listed on any Japanese stock exchange, including our shares, are traded without share certificatesthrough entry in the books maintained under a central clearing system.
Dividends
Dividends are distributed in proportion to the number of shares owned by each shareholder on the record
date for the dividend. Dividends for each financial period may be distributed following shareholders’ approval ata general meeting of shareholders.
Payment of dividends on common stock is subject to the preferential dividend rights of holders of preferredstock.
Under the Banking Law and our Articles of Incorporation, our financial accounts are closed on March 31 ofeach year, and dividends, if any, are paid to shareholders of record as of March 31 following shareholders’approval at a general meeting of shareholders. In addition to year-end dividends, our board of directors may by
resolution declare an interim cash dividend to shareholders of record as of September 30 of each year. Under theCompanies Act, distribution of dividends will take the form of distribution of surplus (as defined below). We will
be permitted to make distributions of surplus to our shareholders any number of times per fiscal year pursuant toresolutions of our general meetings of shareholders, subject to certain limitations described below. Distributions
171

of surplus are in principle required to be authorized by a resolution of a general meeting of shareholders.
Distributions of surplus would, however, be permitted to be made pursuant to a resolution of our board of
directors if:(a) our Articles of Incorporation so provide (our Articles of Incorporation currently contain no suchprovisions);(b) the normal term of office of our directors is one year; and(c) certain conditions concerning our non-consolidated annual financial statements and certain documents
for the latest fiscal year as required by an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice are satisfied.
In an exception to the above rule, even if the requirements described in (a) through (c) are not met, we are
permitted to make distributions of surplus in cash to our shareholders by resolutions of the board of directors
once per fiscal year as mentioned above concerning interim cash dividend.
Under the Companies Act, distributions of surplus may be made in cash or in kind in proportion to thenumber of shares of common stock held by each shareholder. A resolution of a general meeting of shareholders
or our board of directors authorizing a distribution of surplus must specify the kind and aggregate book value ofthe assets to be distributed, the manner of allocation of such assets to shareholders, and the effective date of the
distribution. If a distribution of surplus is to be made in kind, we may, pursuant to a resolution of a general
meeting of shareholders or (as the case may be) our board of directors, grant to our shareholders the right torequire us to make such distribution in cash instead of in kind. If no such right is granted to shareholders, therelevant distribution of surplus must be approved by a special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders.
See “—B. Memorandum and Articles of Association—Common Stock—Voting Rights.”
Under the Companies Act, we may make distributions of surplus to the extent that the aggregate book valueof the assets to be distributed to shareholders does not exceed the distributable amount (as defined below) as ofthe effective date of such distributions of surplus. The amount of surplus (the “surplus”) at any given time shallbe the amount of our assets and the book value of our treasury stock after subtracting the amounts of items (1)through (5) below as they appear on our non-consolidated balance sheet as of the end of our last fiscal year, andafter reflecting the changes in our surplus after the end of our last fiscal year, by adding the amounts of items (6),(7) and (8) below and/or subtracting the amounts of items (9), (10) and (11) below:(1) our liabilities;(2) our stated capital;(3) our additional paid-in capital;(4) our accumulated legal reserve;(5) other amounts as are set out in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice;(6) (if we transferred our treasury stock after the end of the last fiscal year) the transfer price of ourtreasury stock after subtracting the book value thereof;(7) (if we decreased our stated capital after the end of the last fiscal year) the amount of decrease in ourstated capital (excluding the amount transferred to additional paid-in capital or legal reserve);(8) (if we decreased our additional paid-in capital or legal reserve after the end of the last fiscal year) theamount of decrease in our additional paid-in capital or legal reserve (excluding the amount transferred
to stated capital);(9) (if we cancelled our treasury stock after the end of the last fiscal year) the book value of the cancelledtreasury stock;(10) (if we distributed surplus to shareholders after the end of the last fiscal year) the amount of the assets
distributed to shareholders by way of such distribution of surplus; and(11) other amounts as are set out in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice.
172

A distributable amount (the “distributable amount”) at any given time shall be the aggregate amount of(a) the surplus, (b) the amount of profit as recorded for the period after the end of our last fiscal year until thedate of an extraordinary settlement of account (if any) as is set out in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice and(c) the transfer price of our treasury stock in the same period, after subtracting the amounts of the following
items:(1) the book value of our treasury stock;(2) (if we transferred our treasury stock after the end of the last fiscal year) the transfer price of ourtreasury stock;(3) the losses recorded for the period after the end of our last fiscal year until the date of an extraordinary
settlement of account (if any) as set out in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice; and(4) other amounts as set out in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice.
In Japan, the “ex-dividend” date and the record date for any dividends precede the date of determination of
the amount of the dividend to be paid. The market price of shares generally becomes ex-dividend on the third
business day prior to the record date. Under our Articles of Incorporation, we are not obligated to pay any
dividends which are left unclaimed for a period of five years after the date on which they first became payable.
Capital and Reserves
Under the Companies Act, we may reduce our additional paid-in capital or legal reserve (without limitation
as to the amount of such reduction) as mentioned previously, generally by resolution of a general meeting ofshareholders and, if so resolved in the same resolution, may account for the whole or any part of the amount ofsuch reduction as stated capital. We may also reduce our stated capital generally by special resolution of ageneral meeting of shareholders and, if so resolved in the same resolution, such reduction may account for thewhole or any part of the amount of such reduction as additional paid-in capital or legal reserve. Conversely, we
may reduce our surplus and increase either (i) stated capital or (ii) additional paid-in capital and/or legal reserveby the same amount, in either case by resolution of a general meeting of shareholders.
Stock Splits
Stock splits of our outstanding stock may be effected at any time by resolution of the board of directors.
When a stock split is to be effected, we may increase the authorized share capital to cover the number of shares
to be increased by the stock split by amending our Articles of Incorporation by resolution of the board of
directors without approval by special resolution of the general meeting of shareholders, unless more than one
class of stock is issued and outstanding. We must give public notice of the stock split, specifying a record date atleast two weeks prior to the record date.
We conducted a stock split pursuant to which each of our shares of common and preferred stock were split
into 1,000 shares of the respective classes of securities, effective as of September 30, 2007. Our Articles ofIncorporation were amended to increase the authorized share capital to cover the number of shares increased by
the stock split, which amendment became effective simultaneously with the effectiveness of the stock split.
Unit Share (tan-gen kabu) System
We have adopted a unit share system, where 100 shares of either common or preferred stock shall eachconstitute a unit, as the amendment of our Articles of Incorporation to provide for such system was approved at
the shareholders’ meetings on June 27 and 28, 2007.
Under the unit share system, each unit is entitled to one voting right. A holder of less than one unit has no
voting right. Our Articles of Incorporation provide that the holders of shares constituting less than a full unit will
173not have shareholder rights except for those specified in the Companies Act or an ordinance of the Ministry ofJustice, including rights (i) to receive dividends, (ii) to receive cash or other assets in case of consolidation or
split of shares, stock-for-stock exchange or stock-for-stock transfer, corporate split or merger or (iii) to be
allotted rights to subscribe for free for new shares and stock acquisition rights when such rights are granted toshareholders. Shareholders may require us to purchase shares constituting less than a unit at the current market
price. In addition, holders of shares constituting less than a unit may require us to sell them such number ofshares, which, when combined with the number of shares already held by such holder, shall constitute a wholeunit of share; provided that we will be obliged to comply with such request only when we own a sufficientnumber of shares to accommodate the desired sale and purchase. The board of directors may reduce the numberof shares constituting a unit or cease to use the unit share system by amendments to the Articles of Incorporation
without shareholders’ approval even though amendments to the Articles of Incorporation generally require a
special resolution of the general meeting of shareholders.
General Meeting of Shareholders
The ordinary general meeting of our shareholders is usually held in June of each year in Tokyo. In addition,
we may hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders whenever necessary by giving at least two weeks’advance notice to shareholders who are entitled to vote at the relevant general meeting of shareholders. The
record date for ordinary general meetings of our shareholders is March 31.
Any shareholder holding at least 300 voting rights or 1% of the total number of voting rights for six
consecutive months or longer may propose a matter to be considered at a general meeting of shareholders bysubmitting a written request to a director at least eight weeks prior to the date of the meeting. The number ofminimum voting rights, minimum percentage and time period necessary for exercising the minority shareholder
rights described above may be decreased or shortened if our Articles of Incorporation so provide. Our Articles ofIncorporation currently contain no such provisions.
Voting Rights
A holder of shares of our common stock is generally entitled to one voting right for each unit of common
stock held. The following shares of common stock are not entitled to voting rights even when such sharesconstitute a whole unit, and such shares of common stock are not considered when determining whether aquorum exists for a shareholders’ meeting:‰treasury stock;‰shares held by a company in which we and/or our subsidiaries own 25% or more of the total voting
rights; and‰shares issued after the record date as a result of conversion of convertible stock, exercise of stockacquisition rights, and fractional shareholders becoming a shareholder of a whole unit share.

On the other hand, holders of certain class of preferred stock shall be entitled to a voting right for each unitof preferred stock held under certain conditions provided for by relevant laws or regulations and our Articles ofIncorporation, for example, when a proposal to pay the full amount of preferential dividends on any class ofpreferred stock in compliance with the terms of such preferred stock is not included in the agenda of the relevant
shareholders meeting. See “—Preferred Stock.”
Under our Articles of Incorporation, except as otherwise provided by law or by other provisions of our
Articles of Incorporation, a resolution can be adopted at a shareholders’ meeting by the holders of a majority ofthe voting rights represented at the meeting. The Companies Act and our Articles of Incorporation require aquorum of not less than one-third of the total number of voting rights for election of our directors and corporate
auditors.
174

The Companies Act and our Articles of Incorporation provide that a quorum of not less than one-third ofoutstanding voting rights, excluding those owned by our subsidiaries and affiliates of which we own, directly or
indirectly, 25 percent or more, must be present at a shareholders’ meeting to approve specified corporate actions,such as:‰the amendment of our Articles of Incorporation, except in some limited cases;‰

the repurchase of our own stock from a specific shareholder other than our subsidiary;‰

the consolidation of shares;‰

the offering to persons other than shareholders of stock at a specially favorable price, or of stockacquisition rights or bonds or notes with stock acquisition rights with specially favorable conditions;‰the removal of a corporate auditor;‰

the exemption from liability of a director or corporate auditor, with certain exceptions;‰a reduction in stated capital with certain exceptions in which a shareholders’ resolution is not required;‰a distribution of in-kind dividends which meets certain requirements;‰

the transfer of the whole or an important part of our business, except in some limited circumstances;‰

the acquisition of the whole business of another company, except in some limited circumstances;‰a dissolution, merger or consolidation, except for certain types of mergers;‰a stock-for-stock exchange (kabushiki-kokan) or stock-for-stock transfer (kabushiki-iten), except insome limited circumstances; and‰a corporate split, except in some limited circumstances.

A special resolution representing at least two-thirds of the voting rights represented at the meeting isrequired to approve these actions.
Our Articles of Incorporation do not include any provision that grants shareholders cumulative voting rights
at elections of directors or corporate auditors.
Subscription Rights
Holders of our shares have no preemptive rights under our Articles of Incorporation. Under the Companies
Act, however, our board of directors may determine that shareholders be given subscription rights in connection
with a particular issue of new shares. In this case, these subscription rights must be given on uniform terms to allshareholders, and if a specified record date is set, it must be announced in a public notice at least two weeks prior
to the record date. A notification to each individual shareholder must also be given at least two weeks prior to thesubscription date.
Under the Companies Act, rights to subscribe for new shares may not be transferred; however, we may allot
stock acquisition rights to shareholders without consideration, and such rights will be transferable.
Stock Acquisition Rights
We may issue stock acquisition rights (shinkabu yoyakuken), which in the United States are often in theform of warrants, or bonds with stock acquisition rights that cannot be detached (shinkabu yoyakuken-tsuki
shasai), which in the United States are often in the form of convertible bonds or bonds with non-detachable
warrants. Except where the issuance would be on “specially favorable” conditions, the issuance of stockacquisition rights or bonds with stock acquisition rights may be authorized by a resolution of our board of175

directors. Upon exercise of the stock acquisition rights, the holder of such rights may acquire shares by paying
the applicable exercise price or, if so determined by a resolution of our board of directors, by making a substitute
payment, such as having the convertible bonds redeemed for no cash in lieu of the exercise price.
Liquidation Rights
Upon our liquidation, the assets remaining after payment of all debts, liquidation expenses, taxes andpreferred distributions to holders of shares of our preferred stock will be distributed among the holders of sharesof our common stock in proportion to the number of shares they own.
Transfer Agent
MUTB is the transfer agent for our common stock. The office of MUTB for this purpose is located at 4-5,
Marunouchi 1-chome, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 100-8212, Japan. MUTB maintains our register of shareholders.
Reports to Shareholders
We furnish to our shareholders notices, in Japanese, of shareholders’ meetings, annual business reports,
including our financial statements, and notices of resolutions adopted at our shareholders’ meetings.
Record Dates
As stated above, March 31 is the record date for the payment of annual dividends (if any), the determinationof shareholders entitled to vote at ordinary general meetings of our shareholders, and the determination of classshareholders entitled to vote at meetings of our class shareholders if any matter to be resolved at an ordinary
general meeting of our shareholders requires a resolution by our class shareholders in addition to a resolution by
our shareholders. September 30 is the record date for the payment of interim dividends, if any. In addition, by aresolution of our board of directors and after giving at least two weeks’ prior public notice, we may at any time
set a record date in order to determine the shareholders who are entitled to the rights pertaining to our shares.
Repurchase of Our Shares
We may repurchase our own shares:‰

through the Tokyo Stock Exchange or other stock exchanges on which our shares are listed, if
authorized by a resolution of a general meeting of shareholders or our board of directors;‰

by way of a tender offer, if authorized by a resolution of a general meeting of shareholders or our boardof directors;‰

from a specific party, if authorized by a special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders and wegive notice thereof to shareholders prior to such general meeting, in general;‰from all shareholders of a specific class of shares offering to sell their shares, if authorized by aresolution of a general meeting of shareholders or our board of directors and we give a public notice ornotice thereof to all of the shareholders (if we repurchase any class of preferred stock, notices to allshareholders of the relevant class of preferred stock); or‰from our subsidiaries, if authorized by a resolution of the board of directors.

When the repurchase is made by us from a specific party, as authorized by a special resolution of a general
meeting of shareholders, any shareholder may make a demand to a director, five days or more prior to therelevant shareholders’ meeting, that we also repurchase the shares held by that shareholder. However, no suchright will be available if the shares have a market price, and if the purchase price does not exceed the then market
price calculated in a manner set forth in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice.
176

Repurchase of our own shares described above must satisfy various specified requirements. In general, thesame restrictions on the distributable amount as described in the seventh paragraph under “—Common Stock—
Dividends.” are applicable to the repurchase of our own shares, so the total amount of the repurchase price may
not exceed the distributable amount.
We may hold our own shares so repurchased without restrictions. In addition, we may cancel or dispose of
our repurchased shares by a resolution of our board of directors. As of March 31, 2017, we (excluding our
subsidiaries) owned 378,088,933 shares of treasury stock.
Preferred Stock
The following is a summary of information concerning the shares of our preferred stock, including briefsummaries of the relevant provisions of our Articles of Incorporation, the share handling regulations and theCompanies Act as currently in effect. The detailed rights of our preferred stock are set out in our Articles ofIncorporation and the resolutions of our board of directors relating to the issuance of the relevant stock.
General
As of June 29, 2017, we were authorized under our Articles of Incorporation to issue four classes ofpreferred stock totaling 800,000,000 shares of preferred stock, including 400,000,000 shares of each of thesecond to fourth series of class 5 preferred stock (provided the aggregate number of shares authorized to beissued with respect to the three series of class 5 preferred stock does not exceed 400,000,000 shares),200,000,000 shares of each of the first to fourth series of class 6 preferred stock (provided the aggregate numberof shares authorized to be issued with respect to the four series of class 6 preferred stock does not exceed
200,000,000 shares), and 200,000,000 shares of each of the first to fourth series of class 7 preferred stock(provided the aggregate number of shares authorized to be issued with respect to the four series of class 7
preferred stock does not exceed 200,000,000 shares) Our preferred stock has equal preference over our shares ofcommon stock with respect to dividend entitlements and distribution of assets upon our liquidation. However,holders of shares of our preferred stock are not entitled to vote at general meetings of shareholders, subject to the
exceptions provided under our Articles of Incorporation.
We may acquire shares of second to fourth series of class 5 and first to fourth series of class 6 preferredstock at our discretion pursuant to the terms and conditions provided by our Articles of Incorporation and theresolution of our board of directors. The provisions for acquisition of shares of second to fourth series of class 5
and first to fourth series of class 6 preferred stock will be determined by the board of directors at the time ofissuance of such preferred stock. When issued, any holder of shares of first to fourth series of class 6 preferredstock or first to fourth series of class 7 preferred stock may request acquisition of shares of such preferred stockin exchange for shares of our common stock during the period determined by resolution of the board of directors
adopted at the time of issuance of such shares of preferred stock. Any shares of first to fourth series of class 6
preferred stock or first to fourth series of class 7 preferred stock for which no request for acquisition in exchange
for shares of our common stock is made during such period will be mandatorily acquired on the day immediately
following the last day of such period (the “Mandatory Acquisition Date”) in the number obtained by dividing anamount equivalent to the subscription price per each relevant share of preferred stock by the average daily
closing price of our common stock as reported by the Tokyo Stock Exchange for the 30 trading days
commencing on the 45th trading day prior to the Mandatory Acquisition Date.
Additionally, in order to enable the relevant preferred stock to meet the criteria for Additional Tier 1 capital
under Basel III requirements as adopted by the FSA and became effective on March 31, 2013, the terms of thesecond to fourth series of class 5 as well as all the series of class 6 and class 7 preferred stock were amended inJune 2013 to have mandatory acquisition provisions. When newly issuing these preferred stock, the board of
directors will determine events that will require us to acquire the relevant preferred stock pursuant to the capital
adequacy requirements applicable to us. Upon the occurrence of such events, we will acquire all the relevant177preferred stock on an acquisition date, which is a date determined by the board of directors either at the time of
the issuance or after the occurrence of such event. We shall acquire the relevant preferred stock in exchange forcommon stock or for no consideration as determined by the board of directors at the time of the issuance,
considering certain factors including the market conditions. The formula to be used in exchanging the preferredstock for common stock will also be determined by the board of directors at the time of the issuance. For more
information, see “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—
Japan—Capital adequacy.”
Preferred Dividends
In priority to the payment of dividends to holders of our common stock, the amount of preferred dividends
payable each fiscal year for each class of our preferred stock is set forth below:‰

second to fourth series of class 5 preferred stock: to be set by resolution of our board of directors at thetime of issuance, up to a maximum of ¥250.00 per share;‰first to fourth series of class 6 preferred stock: to be set by resolution of our board of directors at thetime of issuance, up to a maximum of ¥125.00 per share; and‰first to fourth series of class 7 preferred stock: to be set by resolution of our board of directors at thetime of issuance, up to a maximum of ¥125.00 per share.

In the event that our board of directors decides to pay an interim dividend to holders of record of ourcommon stock as of September 30 of any year, we will, in priority to the payment of that interim dividend, pay a
preferred interim dividend in the amount specified in our Articles of Incorporation to holders of record of ourpreferred stock as of September 30 of the same year. The amount of any preferred interim dividend will be
deducted from the preferred dividend payable on the relevant class of our preferred stock for the same fiscal year.
No preferred dividend will be paid on any of our preferred stock converted into our common stock for theperiod from the date following the record date for the preferred dividend or preferred interim dividend last
preceding the relevant conversion date to the relevant conversion date, but the common stock issued upon
conversion will be entitled to receive any dividend payable to holders of record of common stock upon the next
succeeding record date for common stock dividends.
No payment of dividends on our preferred stock or any other shares can be made unless we have a sufficient
distributable amount and a resolution to distribute such distributable amount is obtained at the relevant ordinary
general meeting of shareholders, in the case of annual preferred dividends, or at the board of directors, in the caseof preferred interim dividends.
Dividends on our preferred stock are non-cumulative. If the full amount of any dividend is not declared on
our preferred stock in respect of any fiscal year, holders of our preferred stock do not have any right to receive
dividends in respect of the deficiency in any subsequent fiscal year, and we will have no obligation to pay the
deficiency or to pay any interest regardless of whether or not dividends are paid in respect of any subsequentfiscal year. The holders of our preferred stock are not entitled to any further dividends or other participation in or
distribution of our profits.
Liquidation Rights
In the event of our voluntary or involuntary liquidation, record holders of our preferred stock are entitled,equally in rank as among themselves, to receive before any distribution out of our residual assets is made toholders of our common stock, a distribution out of our residual assets of:‰¥2,500 per share of second to fourth series of class 5 preferred stock;‰¥2,500 per share of first to fourth series of class 6 preferred stock; and‰¥2,500 per share of first to fourth series of class 7 preferred stock.
178

The holders of our preferred stock are not entitled to any further dividends or other participation in or
distribution of our residual assets upon our liquidation.
Voting Rights
No holder of our preferred stock has the right to receive notice of, or to vote at, a general meeting ofshareholders, except as otherwise specifically provided under our Articles of Incorporation or other applicablelaw. Under our Articles of Incorporation, holders of our preferred stock will be entitled to receive notice of, andhave one voting right per unit of preferred stock at, our general meetings of shareholders:‰from the commencement of our ordinary general meeting of shareholders if an agenda for approval todeclare a preferred dividend is not submitted to such meeting; or‰from the close of any ordinary general meeting of shareholders if a proposed resolution to declare apreferred dividend is not approved at such meeting.

In each case, holders of our preferred stock will be entitled to receive notice of and vote at the relevant
general meetings of shareholders unless and until such time as a resolution of an ordinary general meeting ofshareholders declaring a preferred dividend is passed.
American Depositary Shares
The Bank of New York Mellon will issue ADRs. Each ADR will represent ownership interests in ADSs.
Each ADS represents one share of our common stock. Each ADS is held by BTMU, acting as custodian, at its
principal office in Tokyo, on behalf of The Bank of New York Mellon, acting as depositary. Each ADS will also
represent securities, cash or other property deposited with The Bank of New York Mellon but not distributed to
ADS holders. The Bank of New York Mellon’s corporate trust office is located at 101 Barclay Street, New York,New York 10286 and its principal executive office is located at One Wall Street, New York, New York 10286.
You may hold ADSs either directly or indirectly through your broker or other financial institution. If you
hold ADSs directly, you are an ADS holder. This description assumes you hold your ADSs directly. If you holdthe ADSs indirectly, you must rely on the procedures of your broker or other financial institution to assert therights of ADS holders described in this section. You should consult with your broker or financial institution tofind out what those procedures are.
The Bank of New York Mellon will actually be the registered holder of the common stock, so you will haveto rely on it to exercise your rights as a shareholder. Our obligations and the obligations of The Bank of
New York Mellon are set out in a deposit agreement among us, The Bank of New York Mellon and you, as an
ADS holder. The deposit agreement and the ADSs are governed by New York law.
The following is a summary of the material terms of the deposit agreement. Because it is a summary, it does
not contain all the information that may be important to you. For more complete information, you should read theentire deposit agreement and the form of ADR.
Share Dividends and Other Distributions
The Bank of New York Mellon has agreed to pay to you the cash dividends or other distributions it or thecustodian receives on shares of common stock or other deposited securities, after deducting its fees and expenses.
You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of shares your ADSs represent.
Cash. The Bank of New York Mellon will convert any cash dividend or other cash distribution we pay on
our common stock into U.S. dollars, if it can do so on a reasonable basis and can transfer the U.S. dollars to theUnited States. If that is not possible or if any approval from the Japanese government is needed and cannot be179obtained, the deposit agreement allows The Bank of New York Mellon to distribute the Japanese yen only tothose ADS holders to whom it is possible to do so. The Bank of New York Mellon will hold the Japanese yen it
cannot convert for the account of the ADS holders who have not been paid. It will not invest the Japanese yen
and it will not be liable for any interest.
Before making a distribution, any withholding taxes that must be paid under Japanese law will be deducted.
See “—E. Taxation—Japanese Taxation.” The Bank of New York Mellon will distribute only whole U.S. dollars
and cents and will round fractional cents to the nearest whole cent. If the relevant exchange rates fluctuate during
a time when The Bank of New York Mellon cannot convert the Japanese currency, you may lose some or all of
the value of the distribution.
Shares. The Bank of New York Mellon may distribute new ADSs representing any shares we may
distribute as a dividend or free distribution, if we furnish The Bank of New York Mellon promptly withsatisfactory evidence that it is legal to do so. The Bank of New York Mellon will only distribute whole ADSs. It
will sell shares which would require it to issue a fractional ADS and distribute the net proceeds in the same way
as it distributes cash dividends. If The Bank of New York Mellon does not distribute additional ADSs, each ADS
will also represent the new shares.
Rights to receive additional shares. If we offer holders of our common stock any rights to subscribe for
additional shares of common stock or any other rights, The Bank of New York Mellon may, after consultation
with us, make those rights available to you. We must first instruct The Bank of New York Mellon to do so andfurnish it with satisfactory evidence that it is legal to do so. If we do not furnish this evidence and/or do not givethese instructions, and The Bank of New York Mellon decides that it is practical to sell the rights, The Bank of
New York Mellon will sell the rights and distribute the proceeds in the same way as it distributes cash dividends.
The Bank of New York Mellon may allow rights that are not distributed or sold to lapse. In that case, you will
receive no value for them.
If The Bank of New York Mellon makes rights available to you, upon instruction from you it will exercise
the rights and purchase the shares on your behalf. The Bank of New York Mellon will then deposit the shares andissue ADSs to you. It will only exercise the rights if you pay it the exercise price and any other charges the rights
require you to pay.
U.S. securities laws may restrict the sale, deposit, cancellation and transfer of the ADSs issued after the
exercise of the rights. For example, you may not be able to trade the ADSs freely in the United States. In thiscase, The Bank of New York Mellon may issue the ADSs under a separate restricted deposit agreement which
will contain the same provisions as the deposit agreement, except for changes needed to put the restrictions inplace. The Bank of New York Mellon will not offer you rights unless those rights and the securities to which therights relate are either exempt from registration or have been registered under the U.S. Securities Act withrespect to a distribution to you. We will have no obligation to register under the Securities Act those rights or the
securities to which they relate.
Other distributions. The Bank of New York Mellon will send to you anything else we distribute on
deposited securities by any means it thinks is legal, fair and practical. If it cannot make the distribution in thatway, The Bank of New York Mellon has a choice. It may decide to sell what we distributed and distribute the net
proceeds, in the same way as it does with cash. Or, it may decide to hold what we distributed, in which case
ADSs will also represent the newly distributed property.
The Bank of New York Mellon is not responsible if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to make a
distribution available to any ADS holders. We have no obligation to register ADSs, shares, rights or othersecurities under the Securities Act. We also have no obligation to take any other action to permit the distributionof ADSs, shares, rights or anything else to ADS holders. This means that you may not receive the distributions
we make on our shares or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical for us or The Bank of New York
Mellon to make them available to you.
180

Deposit, Withdrawal and Cancellation
The Bank of New York Mellon will issue ADSs if you or your broker deposits shares or evidence of rights
to receive shares with the custodian. Upon payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as
stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees, The Bank of New York Mellon will register the appropriate number of
ADSs in the names you request and will deliver the ADSs at its corporate trust office to the persons you request.
In certain circumstances, subject to the provisions of the deposit agreement, The Bank of New York Mellon
may issue ADSs before the deposit of the underlying shares. This is called a pre-release of ADSs. A pre-releaseis closed out as soon as the underlying shares are delivered to the depositary. The depositary may receive ADSs
instead of the shares to close out a pre-release. The depositary may pre-release ADSs only under the following
conditions:‰

Before or at the time of the pre-release, the person to whom the pre-release is made must represent to
the depositary in writing that it or its customer, as the case may be, owns the shares to be deposited;‰

The pre-release must be fully collateralized with cash or collateral that the depositary considers
appropriate; and‰The depositary must be able to close out the pre-release on not more than five business days’ notice.

The pre-release will be subject to whatever indemnities and credit regulations that the depositary considers
appropriate. In addition, the depositary will limit the number of ADSs that may be outstanding at any time as aresult of a pre-release.
You may turn in your ADSs at the Corporate Trust Office of The Bank of New York Mellon’s office. Upon
payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees,
The Bank of New York Mellon will deliver (1) the underlying shares to an account designated by you and(2) any other deposited securities underlying the ADS at the office of the custodian. Or, at your request, risk andexpense, The Bank of New York Mellon will deliver the deposited securities at its Corporate Trust Office.
The ADSs may only be presented for cancellation and release of the underlying shares of common stock orother deposited securities in multiples of 100 ADSs. Holders of ADRs evidencing less than 100 ADSs are notentitled to delivery of any underlying shares or other deposited securities unless ADRs, together with other ADRs
presented by the same holder at the same time, represent in the aggregate at least 100 ADSs. If any ADSs are
surrendered but not cancelled pursuant to the preceding sentence, The Bank of New York Mellon will executeand deliver an ADR or ADRs evidencing the balance of ADSs not so cancelled to the person or persons
surrendering the same.
Voting Rights
If you are an ADS holder on a record date fixed by The Bank of New York Mellon, you may instruct The
Bank of New York Mellon to vote the shares underlying your ADSs at a meeting of our shareholders inaccordance with the procedures set forth in the deposit agreement.
The Bank of New York Mellon will notify you of the upcoming meeting and arrange to deliver our voting
materials to you. The notice shall contain (a) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting, (b) astatement that as of the close of business on a specified record date you will be entitled, subject to any applicableprovision of Japanese law and our Articles of Incorporation, to instruct The Bank of New York Mellon as to theexercise of the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the amount of shares or other deposited securities represented
by your ADSs, and (c) a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given, including an
express indication that instructions may be given to The Bank of New York Mellon to give a discretionary proxy
to a person designated by us. Upon your written request, received on or before the date established by The Bankof New York Mellon for such purpose, The Bank of New York Mellon shall endeavor in so far as practicable to181vote or cause to be voted the amount of shares or other deposited securities represented by your ADSs inaccordance with the instructions set forth in your request. So long as Japanese law provides that votes may only
be cast with respect to one or more whole shares or other deposited securities, The Bank of New York Mellon
will aggregate voting instructions to the extent such instructions are the same and vote such whole shares or otherdeposited securities in accordance with your instructions. If, after aggregation of all instructions to vote received
by The Bank of New York Mellon, any portion of the aggregated instructions constitutes instructions withrespect to less than a whole share or other deposited securities, The Bank of New York Mellon will not vote orcause to be voted the shares or other deposited securities to which such portion of the instructions apply. The
Bank of New York Mellon will not vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote that attaches to the shares or otherdeposited securities, other than in accordance with the instructions of the ADS holders. If no instructions arereceived by The Bank of New York Mellon from you with respect to any of the deposited securities represented
by your ADSs on or before the date established by The Bank of New York Mellon for such purpose, The Bank of
New York Mellon shall deem you to have instructed The Bank of New York Mellon to give a discretionary
proxy to a person designated by us with respect to such deposited securities and The Bank of New York Mellon
shall give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by us to vote such deposited securities, provided that nosuch instruction shall be given with respect to any matter as to which we inform The Bank of New York Mellon(and we have agreed to provide such information as promptly as practicable in writing) that (1) we do not wish
such proxy given, (2) substantial opposition exists or (3) such matter materially and adversely affects the rights
of holders of shares.
We cannot assure you that you will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that you can instruct The
Bank of New York Mellon to vote your shares. In addition, The Bank of New York Mellon is not responsible for
failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions as long as it has acted
in good faith. This means that you may not be able to exercise your right to vote and there may be nothing you
can do if your shares are not voted as you requested.
Fees and Expenses
See “Item 12.D. Description of Securities Other than Equity Securities—American Depositary Shares.”
Payment of Taxes
You will be responsible for any taxes or other governmental charges payable on your ADSs or on thedeposited securities underlying your ADSs. The Bank of New York Mellon may refuse to transfer your ADSs or
allow you to withdraw the deposited securities underlying your ADSs until those taxes or other charges are paid.
It may apply payments owed to you or sell deposited securities underlying your ADSs to pay any taxes owed andyou will remain liable for any deficiency. If it sells deposited securities, it will, if appropriate, reduce the numberof ADSs to reflect the sale and pay to you any property remaining after it has paid the taxes.
Reclassifications, Recapitalizations and Mergers
If we:‰

reclassify, split up or consolidate any of our shares or the deposited securities;‰

recapitalize, reorganize, merge, liquidate, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of our assets or takeany similar action; or‰

distribute securities on the shares that are not distributed to you, then,(1) the cash, shares or other securities received by The Bank of New York Mellon will become deposited
securities and each ADS will automatically represent its equal share of the new deposited securities
unless additional ADSs are issued; and182

(2) The Bank of New York Mellon may, and will if we request, issue new ADSs or ask you to surrender
your outstanding ADSs in exchange for new ADSs, identifying the new deposited securities.
Amendment and Termination
We may agree with The Bank of New York Mellon to amend the deposit agreement and the ADSs without
your consent for any reason. If the amendment adds or increases fees or charges, except for taxes and othergovernmental charges, registration fees, cable, telex or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such
expenses, or prejudices an important right of ADS holders, it will only become effective three months after The
Bank of New York Mellon notifies you of the amendment. At the time an amendment becomes effective, you areconsidered, by continuing to hold your ADS, to agree to the amendment and to be bound by the ADSs and thedeposit agreement as amended. However, no amendment will impair your right to receive the deposited securities
in exchange for your ADSs.
The Bank of New York Mellon will terminate the deposit agreement if we ask it to do so, in which case it
must notify you at least 30 days before termination. The Bank of New York Mellon may also terminate thedeposit agreement if The Bank of New York Mellon has told us that it would like to resign and we have notappointed a new depositary bank within 60 days.
If any ADSs remain outstanding after termination, The Bank of New York Mellon will stop registering thetransfers of ADSs, will stop distributing dividends to ADS holders and will not give any further notices or doanything else under the deposit agreement other than:(1) collect dividends and distributions on the deposited securities;(2) sell rights and other property offered to holders of deposited securities; and(3) deliver shares and other deposited securities in exchange for ADSs surrendered to The Bank of
New York Mellon.
At any time after one year following termination, The Bank of New York Mellon may sell any remaining
deposited securities. After that, The Bank of New York Mellon will hold the money it received on the sale, as
well as any other cash it is holding under the deposit agreement for the pro rata benefit of the ADS holders thathave not surrendered their ADSs. It will not invest the money and has no liability for interest. The Bank of
New York Mellon’s only obligations will be to account for the money and other cash and with respect toindemnification and to retain depositary documents. After termination, our only obligations will be with respect
to indemnification and to pay certain amounts to The Bank of New York Mellon.
Limitations on Obligations and Liability to ADS Holders
The deposit agreement expressly limits our obligations and the obligations of The Bank of New York
Mellon. It also limits our liability and the liability of The Bank of New York Mellon. We and The Bank of
New York Mellon:‰

are only obligated to take the actions specifically set forth in the deposit agreement without negligenceor bad faith;‰

are not liable if either is prevented or delayed by law, any provision of our Articles of Incorporation or
circumstances beyond their control from performing their obligations under the deposit agreement;‰

are not liable if either exercises or fails to exercise discretion permitted under the deposit agreement;‰

have no obligation to become involved in a lawsuit or other proceeding related to the ADSs or thedeposit agreement on your behalf or on behalf of any other party unless indemnified to their satisfaction;
and
183

‰

may rely upon any advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person depositing
shares, any ADS holder or any other person believed in good faith to be competent to give them that
advice or information.

In the deposit agreement, we and The Bank of New York Mellon agree to indemnify each other for
liabilities arising out of acts performed or omitted by the other party in accordance with the deposit agreement.

Exchange Controls

Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Law
The Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Law of Japan and the cabinet orders and ministerial ordinances
incidental thereto, collectively known as the Foreign Exchange Law, set forth, among other matters, regulations
relating to the receipt by non-residents of Japan of payment with respect to shares to be issued by us and theacquisition and holding of shares by non-residents of Japan and foreign investors, both as defined below. It also
applies in some cases to the acquisition and holding of ADSs representing such shares acquired and held by
non-residents of Japan and by foreign investors. Generally, the Foreign Exchange Law currently in effect does
not affect the right of a non-resident of Japan to purchase or sell an ADS outside Japan for non-Japanesecurrency.
“Non-residents of Japan” are defined as individuals who are not resident in Japan and corporations whose
principal offices are located outside Japan. Generally, the branches and offices of non-resident corporations
which are located in Japan are regarded as residents of Japan while the branches and offices of Japanese
corporations located outside Japan are regarded as non-residents of Japan.
“Foreign investors” are defined as:‰

non resident individuals;‰

corporations which are organized under the laws of foreign countries or whose principal offices arelocated outside Japan;‰

corporations of which 50% or more of the shares are directly or indirectly held by individuals notresident of Japan and corporations which are organized under the laws of foreign countries or whose
principal offices are located outside Japan; and‰corporations, a majority of officers (or a majority of officers having the power of representation) of
which are non-resident individuals.

Dividends and Proceeds of Sales
Under the Foreign Exchange Law, dividends paid on, and the proceeds of sales in Japan of, shares held by
non-residents of Japan may in general be converted into any foreign currency and repatriated abroad. The
acquisition of our shares by non-residents by way of a stock split is not subject to any notification or reporting
requirements.
Acquisition of Shares
In general, a non-resident who acquires shares from a resident of Japan is not subject to any prior filing
requirement, although the Foreign Exchange Law empowers the Minister of Finance of Japan to require a priorapproval for any such acquisition in certain limited circumstances.
If a foreign investor acquires our shares, and, together with parties who have a special relationship with that
foreign investor, holds 10% or more of our issued shares as a result of such acquisition, the foreign investor mustfile a report of such acquisition with the Minister of Finance and any other competent Minister by the fifteenth
day of the month immediately following the month to which the date of such acquisition belongs. In certain
limited circumstances, however, a prior notification of such acquisition must be filed with the Minister ofFinance and any other competent Minister, who may modify or prohibit the proposed acquisition.
185

Deposit and Withdrawal under American Depositary Facility
The deposit of shares with us, in our capacity as custodian and agent for the depositary, in Tokyo, theissuance of ADSs by the depositary to a non-resident of Japan in respect of the deposit and the withdrawal of theunderlying shares upon the surrender of the ADSs are not subject to any of the formalities or restrictions referred
to above. However, where as a result of a deposit or withdrawal the aggregate number of shares held by thedepositary, including shares deposited with us as custodian for the depositary, or the holder surrendering ADSs,
as the case may be, would be 10% or more of the total outstanding shares, a report will be required, and inspecified circumstances, a prior notification may be required, as noted above.
Reporting of Substantial Shareholdings
The Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan requires any person who has become, beneficiallyand solely or jointly, a holder of more than 5% of the total issued shares of capital stock of a company listed on
any Japanese financial instruments exchange or whose shares are traded on the over-the-counter market in Japanto file with the director of a competent finance bureau within 5 business days a report concerning suchshareholdings.
A similar report must also be filed in respect of any subsequent change of 1% or more in any such holding
ratio or any change in material matters set out in reports previously filed, with certain exceptions. For thispurpose, shares issuable to such person upon exchange of exchangeable securities, conversion of convertible
securities or exercise of share subscription warrants or stock acquisition rights (including those incorporated inbonds with stock acquisition rights) are taken into account in determining both the number of shares held by suchholder and the issuer’s total issued shares of capital stock. Copies of such report must also be furnished to theissuer of such shares and all Japanese financial instruments exchanges on which the shares are listed or (in thecase of shares traded over-the-counter) the Japan Securities Dealers Association.

Taxation

Japanese Taxation
The following sets forth the material Japanese tax consequences to owners of shares of our common stock or
ADSs who are non-resident individuals or non-Japanese corporations without a permanent establishment in Japanto which the relevant income is attributable, which we refer to as “non-resident holders” in this section. The
statements regarding Japanese tax laws below are based on the laws in force and as interpreted by the Japanesetaxation authorities as at the date of this Annual Report and are subject to changes in the applicable Japaneselaws, double taxation treaties, conventions or agreements or interpretations thereof occurring after that date. Thissummary is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations that may apply to a particular investor, and potential
investors are advised to satisfy themselves as to the overall tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership anddisposition of shares of our common stock or ADSs, including specifically the tax consequences under Japaneselaw, the laws of the jurisdiction of which they are resident and any tax treaty between Japan and their country ofresidence, by consulting their own tax advisers.
For the purpose of Japanese tax law and the Convention between the Government of the United States ofAmerica and Japan for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect toTaxes on Income, or the Tax Convention, a U.S. holder of ADSs will be treated as the owner of the shares of ourcommon stock underlying the ADSs evidenced by the ADRs.
Generally, a non-resident holder of shares of our common stock or ADSs is subject to Japanese withholding
tax on dividends paid by us. In the absence of any applicable tax treaty, convention or agreement reducing therate of withholding tax, the rate of Japanese withholding tax applicable to dividends paid by us to non-resident
holders is (i) 15.315% for dividends to be paid on or before December 31, 2037 and (ii) 15% for dividends to be
paid thereafter, except for dividends paid to any individual non-resident holder who holds 3% or more of ourissued shares for which the applicable rate is (a) 20.42% for dividends to be paid on or before December 31,
2037 and (b) 20% for dividends to be paid thereafter, pursuant to Japanese tax law.
186

The Tax Convention establishes the maximum rate of Japanese withholding tax which may be imposed on
dividends paid to a U.S. resident not having a permanent establishment in Japan. Under the Tax Convention, themaximum withholding rate for U.S. holders (as defined below) is generally set at 10% of the gross amount
distributed. However, the maximum rate is 5% of the gross amount distributed if the recipient is a corporationand owns directly or indirectly, on the date on which entitlement to the dividends is determined, at least 10% of
the voting shares of the paying corporation. Furthermore, the amount distributed shall not be taxed if therecipient is (i) a pension fund which is a U.S. resident, provided that such dividends are not derived from thecarrying on of a business, directly or indirectly, by such pension fund or (ii) a parent company with a controllinginterest in the paying company and satisfies certain other requirements. U.S. holders (as defined below) are urged
to consult their own tax advisors with respect to their eligibility for benefits under the Tax Convention.
Japanese tax law provides in general that if the Japanese statutory rate is lower than the maximum rateapplicable under tax treaties, conventions or agreements, the Japanese statutory rate as stated above shall beapplicable.
Non-resident holders of shares who are entitled to a reduced rate of Japanese withholding tax on paymentsof dividends on the shares of our common stock or ADSs by us are required to submit an Application Form for
the Income Tax Convention regarding Relief from Japanese Income Tax on Dividends, or an Application Formfor the Income Tax Convention, in advance through a paying handling agent to the relevant tax authority before
the payment of dividends. A standing proxy for non-resident holders may provide this application service for thenon-resident holders. In this regard, a certain simplified special filing procedure is available for non-resident
holders to claim treaty benefits of exemption from or reduction of Japanese withholding tax with respect todividends to be paid on or after January 1, 2014, by submitting a Special Application Form for Income Tax
Convention regarding Relief from Japanese Income Tax and Special Income Tax for Reconstruction on
Dividends of Listed Stocks (together with any other required forms and documents). With respect to ADSs, thisreduced rate or exemption will be applicable to non-resident holders of ADSs if the depositary or its agent
submits two Application Forms (one before payment of dividends and the other within eight months after therecord date concerning such payment of dividends), together with certain other documents. To claim this reduced
rate or exemption, non-resident holders of ADSs will be required to file a proof of taxpayer status, residence andbeneficial ownership, as applicable, and to provide other information or documents as may be required by thedepositary. Non-resident holders who are entitled, under any applicable tax treaty, to a reduced rate of Japanese
withholding tax below the rate otherwise applicable under Japanese tax law, or exemption therefrom, as the casemay be, but fail to submit the required application in advance may nevertheless be entitled to claim a refund fromthe relevant Japanese tax authority of withholding taxes withheld in excess of the rate under an applicable tax
treaty (if such non-resident holders are entitled to a reduced treaty rate under the applicable tax treaty) or the fullamount of tax withheld (if such non-resident holders are entitled to an exemption under the applicable tax treaty),as the case may be, by complying with a certain subsequent filing procedure. We do not assume any
responsibility to ensure withholding at the reduced rate, or exemption therefrom, for non-resident holders who
would be so eligible under an applicable tax treaty but where the required procedures as stated above are notfollowed.
Gains derived from the sale or other disposition of shares of our common stock or ADSs by a non-resident
holder are not, in general, subject to Japanese income or corporation taxes or other Japanese taxes.
Any deposits or withdrawals of shares of our common stock by a non-resident holder in exchange for ADSs
are not subject to Japanese income or corporation tax.
Japanese inheritance and gift taxes, at progressive rates, may be payable by an individual who has acquired
shares of our common stock or ADSs as legatee, heir or donee, even if none of the individual, the decedent or thedonor is a Japanese resident.

U.S. Taxation
The following sets forth the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership of shares and
ADSs by a U.S. holder, as defined below. This summary is based on U.S. federal income tax laws, including the
U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or the Code, its legislative history, existing and proposed Treasury
regulations thereunder, published rulings and court decisions, and the Tax Convention (as defined above), all ofwhich are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect.
The following summary is not a complete analysis or description of all potential U.S. federal income tax
consequences to a particular U.S. holder. It does not address all U.S. federal income tax considerations that may
be relevant to all categories of potential purchasers, certain of which (such as banks or other financial
institutions, insurance companies, dealers in securities, tax-exempt entities, non-U.S. persons, persons holding ashare or an ADS as part of a “straddle,” “hedge,” conversion or integrated transaction, holders whose “functional
currency” is not the U.S. dollar, holders liable for alternative minimum tax and holders of 10% or more of ourvoting shares) are subject to special tax treatment. This summary does not address any foreign, state, local orother tax consequences of investments in our shares or ADSs.
This summary addresses only shares or ADSs that are held as capital assets within the meaning ofSection 1221 of the Code.
As used herein, a “U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of shares or ADSs, as the case may be, that is:‰a citizen or resident of the United States as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes;‰a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized under the laws of the UnitedStates, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;‰

an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or‰a trust‰the administration of which is subject to (1) the supervision of a court within the United States and(2) the control of one or more U.S. persons as described in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code; or‰that has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S.
person.

If a partnership holds shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of
the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding shares or ADSs, you
should consult your tax advisor.

We urge U.S. holders to consult their own tax advisors concerning the U.S. federal, state and local andother tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of shares or ADSs.
This summary is based in part on the assumption that each obligation under the deposit agreement and any
related agreement will be performed in accordance with its respective terms. Subject to the discussion in the next
paragraph, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holders of ADSs will be treated as the owners of the shares
represented by the ADSs. Accordingly, withdrawals or deposits of shares in exchange for ADSs generally will
not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.
The U.S. Treasury has expressed concerns that intermediaries in the chain of ownership between the holder
of an ADS and the issuer of the security underlying the ADS may be taking actions that are inconsistent with thebeneficial ownership of the underlying shares (for example, pre-releasing ADSs to persons who do not have188

beneficial ownership of the securities underlying the ADSs). Accordingly, the discussion on the creditability ofJapanese taxes and the availability of the reduced rate of tax for dividends received by certain non-corporate
U.S. holders, each as described below, could be affected by actions taken by intermediaries in the chain ofownership between the holder of ADSs and us if, as a result of such actions, the holders of ADSs are not properly
treated as beneficial owners of the underlying shares. We are not aware of any intention to take any such actions,and accordingly, the remainder of this discussion assumes that holders of ADSs will be properly treated as
beneficial owners of the underlying shares.
Special adverse U.S. federal income tax rules apply if a U.S. holder holds shares or ADSs of a company thatis treated as a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”) for any taxable year during which the
U.S. holder held shares or ADSs, as discussed in more detail below. U.S. holders should consult their own tax
advisors as to the potential application of the PFIC rules to their ownership and disposition of shares or ADSs.
Taxation of Dividends
Subject to the application of the PFIC rules discussed below, U.S. holders will include the gross amount ofany distribution received with respect to shares or ADSs (before reduction for Japanese withholding taxes), to theextent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax
purposes), as ordinary income in their gross income. As discussed below, for certain U.S. holders, dividends may
be eligible for a reduced rate of taxation. The amount of distribution of property other than cash will be the fairmarket value of such property on the date of the distribution. Dividends received by a U.S. holder will not be
eligible for the “dividends-received deduction” allowed to U.S. corporations in respect of dividends received
from other U.S. corporations. To the extent that an amount received by a U.S. holder exceeds such holder’sallocable share of our current earnings and profits, such excess will be applied first to reduce such holder’s tax
basis in its shares or ADSs, thereby increasing the amount of gain or decreasing the amount of loss recognized ona subsequent disposition of the shares or ADSs. Then, to the extent such distribution exceeds such U.S. holder’stax basis, such excess will be treated as capital gain. However, we do not maintain calculations of our earnings
and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and U.S. holders should therefore assume thatany distribution by us with respect to shares or ADSs will constitute ordinary dividend income. The amount of
the dividend will be the U.S. dollar value of the Japanese yen payments received. This value will be determinedat the spot Japanese yen/U.S. dollar rate on the date the dividend is received by the depositary in the case of
U.S. holders of ADSs, or by the shareholder in the case of U.S. holders of shares, regardless of whether thedividend payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars at that time. If the Japanese yen received as a dividend are
not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. holder will have basis in such Japanese yen equal totheir U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt, and any foreign currency gains or losses resulting from theconversion of the Japanese yen will generally be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss. If the Japanese
yen received as a dividend are converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. holder will generally not
be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income.
If a U.S. holder is eligible for benefits under the Tax Convention, the holder may be able to claim a reduced
rate of Japanese withholding tax. All U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors about their eligibility for
reduction of Japanese withholding tax. A U.S. holder may claim a deduction or a foreign tax credit, subject toother applicable limitations, only for tax withheld at the appropriate rate. A U.S. holder would be allowed aforeign tax credit for withholding tax for any portion of the tax that could have been avoided by claiming benefits
under the Tax Convention. For foreign tax credit limitation purposes, the dividend will be income from sources
outside the United States. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect
to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends we pay will constitute “passive income” or, in the caseof certain U.S. holders, “financial services income.” The rules governing U.S. foreign tax credits are very
complex and U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of foreign tax credits under
their particular circumstances.
Subject to applicable exceptions with respect to short-term and hedged positions, qualified dividends
received by non-corporate U.S. holders from a qualified corporation may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation.
189

Qualified corporations include those foreign corporations eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax
treaty with the United States that the U.S. Treasury Department determines to be satisfactory for these purposes
and that includes an exchange of information provision. The Tax Convention meets these requirements. Subject
to the PFIC discussion below, we believe that we are a qualified foreign corporation and that dividends received
by U.S. investors with respect to our shares or ADSs will be qualified dividends. Dividends received by U.S.
investors from a foreign corporation that was a PFIC in either the taxable year of the distribution or the preceding
taxable year are not qualified dividends.
Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations
Special adverse U.S. federal income tax rules apply if a U.S. holder holds shares or ADSs of a company thatis treated as a PFIC, for any taxable year during which the U.S. holder held shares or ADSs. A foreign
corporation will be considered a PFIC for any taxable year in which (i) 75% or more of its gross income ispassive income (the “income test”), or (ii) 50% or more of the average fair market value of its assets (determined
quarterly) is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income (the “asset test”).
For this purpose, passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents and certain gains from thesale of stock and securities. If a foreign corporation owns at least 25% (by value) of the stock of anothercorporation, the corporation will be treated, for purposes of the PFIC tests, as owning a proportionate share of theother corporation’s assets and receiving its proportionate share of the other corporation’s income. The
determination of whether a foreign corporation is a PFIC is made annually.
Proposed Treasury regulations convert what would otherwise be passive income into non-passive income
when such income is banking income earned by an active bank. Based upon these proposed Treasury regulations,and upon certain management estimates and assumptions, we do not believe that we were a PFIC for the year
ended March 31, 2017 because we did not meet either the income test or the asset test. Until recently, temporary
IRS guidance treated certain qualifying government bonds as assets that generate active banking income for these
purposes; however, such guidance has expired for taxable years beginning after 2016. We do not believe that wewould have been a PFIC for the year ended March 31, 2017 even in the absence of such guidance. The
determination of whether we are a PFIC must be made annually and involves a fact-intensive analysis based
upon, among other things, the composition of our income and assets and the value of our assets from time totime. It is possible that we may become a PFIC in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 or any future taxable
year due to changes in our income or asset composition and the expiration of the temporary IRS guidancedescribed above. In addition, a decrease in the price of our shares may also result in our becoming a PFIC.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the above-described proposed Treasury regulations will be finalized
in their current form. Moreover, the application of the proposed Treasury regulations is not clear. If we wereclassified as a PFIC in any year during which a U.S. holder owns shares or ADSs and the U.S. holder does notmake a “mark-to-market” election, as discussed below, we generally would continue to be treated as a PFIC as tosuch U.S. holder in all succeeding years, regardless of whether we continue to meet the income or asset test
discussed above. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences tothem if we were to become a PFIC for any taxable year in which they own our shares or ADSs.
If we were classified as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. holder holds our shares or ADSs,
the U.S. holder would generally not receive capital gains treatment upon the sale of the shares or ADSs andwould be subject to increased tax liability (generally including an interest charge) upon the sale or otherdisposition of the shares or ADSs or upon the receipt of certain distributions treated as “excess distributions,”
unless the U.S. holder makes the mark-to-market election described below. An excess distribution generally
would be any distribution to a U.S. holder with respect to shares or ADSs during a single taxable year that isgreater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by a U.S. holder with respect to shares or ADSs
during the three preceding taxable years or, if shorter, during the U.S. holder’s holding period for the shares or
ADSs.
Mark-to-Market Election. If the shares or ADSs are regularly traded on a registered national securities
exchange or certain other exchanges or markets, then such shares or ADSs would constitute “marketable stock”
for purposes of the PFIC rules, and a U.S. holder would not be subject to the foregoing PFIC rules if such holder
190made a mark-to-market election. After making such an election, the U.S. holder generally would include as
ordinary income each year during which the election is in effect and during which we are a PFIC the excess, ifany, of the fair market value of our shares or ADSs at the end of the taxable year over such holder’s adjusted
basis in such shares or ADSs. These amounts of ordinary income would not be eligible for the favorable tax rates
applicable to qualified dividend income or long-term capital gains. A U.S. holder also would be allowed to takean ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the holder’s adjusted basis in our shares or ADSs over theirfair market value at the end of the taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of income that waspreviously included as a result of the mark-to-market election). A U.S. holder’s tax basis in our shares or ADSs
would be adjusted to reflect any income or loss amounts resulting from a mark-to-market election. If made, amark-to-market election would be effective for the taxable year for which the election was made and for all
subsequent taxable years unless the shares or ADSs cease to qualify as “marketable stock” for purposes of the
PFIC rules or the IRS consented to the revocation of the election. In the event that we are classified as a PFIC,
U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the mark-to-market election, andwhether the election would be advisable in the holder’s particular circumstances.
QEF Election. The PFIC rules outlined above also would not apply to a U.S. holder if such holder
alternatively elected to treat us as a “qualified electing fund” or “QEF.” An election to treat us as a QEF will not
be available, however, if we do not provide the information necessary to make such an election. We will notprovide U.S. holders with the information necessary to make a QEF election, and thus, the QEF election will not
be available with respect to our shares.
Notwithstanding any election made with respect to our shares, dividends received with respect to our shares
will not constitute “qualified dividend income” if we are a PFIC in either the year of the distribution or thepreceding taxable year. Dividends that do not constitute qualified dividend income are not eligible for taxation at
the reduced tax rate described above in “—Taxation of Dividends.” Instead, such dividends would be subject totax at ordinary income rates.
If a U.S. holder owns shares or ADSs during any year in which we are a PFIC, the U.S. holder must also file
IRS Form 8621 regarding distributions received on the shares or ADSs, any gain realized on the shares or ADSs,
and any “reportable election” in accordance with the instructions to such form. In addition, each U.S. holder isrequired to file a separate IRS Form 8621 if such U.S. holder owns shares or ADSs during any year in which weare a PFIC whether or not such U.S. holder received distributions on the shares or ADSs, realized a gain on theshares or ADSs or made a “reportable election” during such year. U.S. holders are urged to consult their own tax
advisors concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of holding shares or ADSs if the Company wereconsidered a PFIC in any taxable year.
Taxation of Capital Gains
Subject to the application of the PFIC rules discussed above, upon a sale or other disposition of shares or
ADSs, a U.S. holder will recognize a gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar
value of the amount realized and the U.S. holder’s tax basis, determined in U.S. dollars, in such shares or ADSs.
Such gains or losses will be capital gains or losses and will be long-term capital gains or losses if the U.S.
holder’s holding period for such shares or ADSs exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate
U.S. holders (including individuals) are generally eligible for reduced rates of taxation. A U.S. holder’s adjusted
tax basis in its shares or ADSs will generally be the cost to the holder of such shares or ADSs. Any such gains orlosses realized by a U.S. holder upon disposal of the shares or ADSs will generally be income or loss fromsources within the United States for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. The deductibility of capital losses issubject to limitations under the Code.

191

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
Dividends paid on shares or ADSs to a U.S. holder, or proceeds from a U.S. holder’s sale or otherdisposition of shares or ADSs, may be subject to information reporting requirements. Those dividends orproceeds from sale or disposition may also be subject to backup withholding unless the U.S. holder:‰

is a corporation or other exempt recipient, and, when required, demonstrates this fact; or‰provides a correct taxpayer identification number on a properly completed U.S. IRS Form W-9 or otherappropriate form which certifies that the U.S. holder is not subject to backup withholding and otherwise
complies with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amount withheld under these rules will be creditableagainst the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability or refundable to the extent that it exceeds such liability
if the U.S. holder provides the required information to the IRS. If a U.S. holder is required to and does notprovide a correct taxpayer identification number, the U.S. holder may be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS.
All holders should consult their tax advisors as to their qualification for the exemption from backup withholding
and the procedure for obtaining an exemption.
In addition, certain U.S. holders who are individuals that hold certain foreign financial assets (which may
include our shares or ADSs) are required to report information relating to such assets, subject to certain
exceptions. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this requirement on theirownership and disposition of our shares and ADSs.
Additional Tax on Investment Income
U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts and whose income exceeds certain thresholds will be
subject to an additional 3.8% tax on unearned income, including, among other things, dividends on, and capitalgains from the sale or other taxable disposition of, shares or ADSs, subject to certain limitations and exceptions.

Subsidiary Information
Please refer to discussion under “Item 4.C. Information on the Company—Organizational Structure.”

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk.
In the current market and regulatory environment, financial groups such as us are expected to ensure
increasingly more sophisticated and comprehensive risk management. Risk management plays an increasingly
important role in our operations as a financial group operating globally through various subsidiaries.
192

We identify various risks arising from businesses based on uniform criteria, and implement integrated risk
management to ensure a stronger financial condition and to maximize shareholder value. Based on this approach,
we identify, measure, control and monitor a wide variety of risks so as to achieve a stable balance between
earnings and risks. We undertake risk management to create an appropriate capital structure and to achieve
optimal allocation of resources.
Risk Classification
At the holding company level, we broadly classify and define risk categories faced by the Group, including
those that are summarized below. Group companies perform more detailed risk management based on theirrespective operations.
Type of Risk

Definition

Credit Risk

The risk of financial loss in credit assets (including off-balance sheet
instruments) caused by deterioration in the credit conditions of counterparties.
This category includes country risk.
The risk of financial loss where the value of our assets and liabilities could be
adversely affected by changes in market variables such as interest rates,
securities prices and foreign exchange rates. Market liquidity risk is the risk offinancial loss caused by the inability to secure market transactions at therequired volume or price levels as a result of market turbulence or lack of
trading liquidity.
The risk of incurring loss if a poor financial position at a group company
hampers the ability to meet funding requirements or necessitates fundprocurement at interest rates markedly higher than normal.
The risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people
or systems, or from external events.
The risk of incurring loss that might be caused by negligence of correct
operational processing, or by incidents or misconduct by either officers or
staff, as well as other similar risks.
The risk of loss caused by loss, alteration, falsification or leakage of
information, or by destruction, disruption, errors or misuse of information
systems, as well as other similar risks.
The risk of loss due to damage to tangible assets or deterioration in theoperational environment caused by disasters or inadequate asset maintenance,
as well as risks similar to this risk.
The risk of loss due to an outflow or loss of human resources or deteriorationin employee morale, as well as risks similar to this risk.
The risk of loss due to failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations,adequately evaluate contractual rights and obligations, or appropriately deal
with disputes, as well as other similar risks.
The risk of loss due to deterioration in reputation as a consequence of the spreadof rumors among customers or in the market, or as a consequence of inadequate
response to a particular circumstance by MUFG, as well as other similar risks.
The risk of loss due to decision-making based on the information provided byan inaccurate model or the misuse of a model.

Risk Management System
We have adopted an integrated risk management system to promote close cooperation among the holding
company and group companies. The holding company and the major subsidiaries (which include BTMU, MUTB
193

and MUSHD) each appoint a chief risk officer and establish an independent risk management division. The boardof directors of the holding company determines risk management policies for various types of risks based on thediscussions at, and reports and recommendations from, committees established specially for risk management
purposes. The holding company has established committees to assist management in managing risks relevant to
the Group. Following the fundamental risk management policies determined by the board of directors, eachgroup company establishes its own systems and procedures for identifying, analyzing and managing various
types of risks from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives. The holding company seeks to enhance groupwide risk identification, to integrate and improve the Group’s risk management system and related methods, tomaintain asset quality, and to eliminate concentrations of specific risks.

Crisis Management Framework
In order to have a clear critical response rationale and associated decision-making criteria, we havedeveloped systems designed to ensure that our operations are not interrupted or can be restored to normal quickly
in the event of a natural disaster or system failure so as to minimize any disruption to customers and markets. A
crisis management team within the holding company is the central coordinating body in the event of any
emergency. Based on information collected from crisis management personnel at the major subsidiaries, thiscentral body would assess the overall impact of a crisis on the Group’s business and establish task forces that
could implement all countermeasures to restore full operations. We have business continuity plans to maintaincontinuous operational viability in the event of natural disasters, system failures and other types of emergencies.
Regular training drills are conducted to upgrade the practical effectiveness of these systems.
Recognizing that our operations, particularly in Japan, are subject to the risk of earthquakes and othernatural disasters as well as accidents resulting from such disasters, including a sudden massive blackout in major
metropolitan areas in Japan, and that our contingency plans may not address all eventualities that may occur inthe event of a material disruption to our operations, we conduct a comprehensive review of our existing business
continuity plan to more effectively respond to such extreme scenarios, and contemplate and implement measures
to augment our current business continuity management framework, including enhancing our off-site back-up
data storage and other information technology systems.
Implementation of Basel Standards
In determining capital ratios under the FSA guidelines implementing Basel III, we and our banking
subsidiaries used the Advanced Internal Ratings-Based approach, or the AIRB approach, to calculate capitalrequirements for credit risk as of March 31, 2017. The Standardized Approach is used for some subsidiaries thatare considered to be immaterial to the overall MUFG capital requirements, and MUAH has adopted a phased
rollout of the Internal Ratings-Based Approach. We reflect market risk in our risk-weighted assets by applying
the Internal Models Approach to calculate general market risk and the Standardized Measurement Method to
calculate specific risk. Under the Internal Models Approach, we principally use a historical simulation model tocalculate value-at-risk, or VaR, amounts by estimating the profit and loss on our portfolio by applying actualfluctuations in historical market rates and prices over a fixed period. Under the FSA guidelines implementing
Basel III, we reflect operational risk in our risk-weighted assets by using the Standardized Approach and theAdvanced Measurement Approach. The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has issued proposals to revise
the current market risk framework, including stricter measures applicable to some of our investment securities
portfolio. For more information, see “—Operational Risk Management.”
Based on the Basel III framework, the Japanese capital ratio framework has been revised to implement themore stringent requirements, which are being implemented in phases beginning on March 31, 2013. Likewise,
local banking regulators outside of Japan, such as those in the United States, have begun, or are expected, torevise the capital and liquidity requirements imposed on our subsidiaries and operations in those countries toimplement the more stringent requirements of Basel III as adopted in those countries. We intend to carefully
monitor further developments with an aim to enhance our corporate value and maximize shareholder value by
integrating the various strengths within the MUFG Group. For more information on the Basel regulatory
framework and requirements, see “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision
and Regulation.”
Credit Risk Management
Credit risk is the risk of losses due to deterioration in the financial condition of a borrower. We haveestablished risk management systems to maintain asset quality, manage credit risk exposure and achieve earnings
commensurate with risk.
Our major banking subsidiaries (which include BTMU and MUTB) apply a uniform credit rating system for
asset evaluation and assessment, loan pricing, and quantitative measurement of credit risk. This system also195

underpins the calculation of capital requirements and management of credit portfolios. We continually seek to
upgrade credit portfolio management, or CPM, expertise to achieve an improved risk-adjusted return based on
the Group’s credit portfolio status and flexible response capability to economic and other external changes.
Credit Risk Management System
The credit portfolios of our major banking subsidiaries are monitored and assessed on a regular basis by theholding company to maintain and improve asset quality. A uniform credit rating and asset evaluation andassessment system is used to ensure timely and proper evaluation of all credit risks.
Under our credit risk management system, each of our subsidiaries in the banking, securities, consumer
finance, and leasing businesses, manages its respective credit risk on a consolidated basis based on the attributesof the risk, while the holding company oversees and manages credit risk on an overall group-wide basis. The
holding company also convenes regular committee meetings to monitor credit risk management at banking
subsidiaries and to issue guidance where necessary.
Each major banking subsidiary has in place a system of checks and balances in which a credit administration
section that is independent of the business promotion sections screens individual transactions and manages theextension of credit. At the management level, regular meetings of the Credit & Investment Management
Committee and related deliberative bodies ensure full discussion of important matters related to credit risk
management. Besides such checks and balances and internal oversight systems, credit examination sections also
undertake credit testing and evaluation to ensure appropriate credit risk management.
The following diagram summarizes the credit risk management framework for our major banking
subsidiaries:

Credit Rating System
MUFG and its major banking subsidiaries use an integrated credit rating system to evaluate credit risk. The
credit rating system consists primarily of borrower rating, facility risk rating, structured finance rating and asset
securitization rating.
Country risk is also rated on a uniform group-wide basis. Our country risk rating is reviewed periodically totake into account relevant political and economic factors, including foreign currency availability.
Risk exposure for small retail loans, such as residential mortgage loans, is managed by grouping loans into
various pools and assigning ratings at the pool level.
196

Borrower rating
Our borrower rating classifies borrowers into 15 grades based on evaluations of their expected debt-service
capability over the next three to five years.
The following table sets forth our borrower grades:
Definition of MUFG Borrower Rating
MUFG
Borrower
Rating

MUFG Borrower Rating Definition

1

The capacity to meet financial commitments is extremely certain, and the borrower has the highest levelof creditworthiness.

2

The capacity to meet financial commitments is highly certain, but there are some elements that may
result in lower creditworthiness in the future.

3

The capacity to meet financial commitments is sufficiently certain, but there is the possibility thatcreditworthiness may fall in the long run.

4

There are no problems concerning the capacity to meet financial commitments, but there is thepossibility that creditworthiness may fall in the long run.

5

There are no problems concerning the capacity to meet financial commitments, and creditworthiness isin the middle range.

6

There are no problems concerning the capacity to meet financial commitments presently, but there are
elements that require attention if the situation changes.

7

There are no problems concerning the capacity to meet financial commitments presently, but long-term
stability is poor.

8

There are no problems concerning the capacity to meet financial commitments presently, but long-term
stability is poor, and creditworthiness is relatively low.

9

The capacity to meet financial commitments is somewhat poor, and creditworthiness is the lowest
among “Normal” customers.
Borrowers who must be closely monitored because of the following business performance and financial
conditions:10 through 12(1) Borrowers who have problematic business performance, such as virtually delinquent principal
repayment or interest payment;(2) Borrowers whose business performance is unsteady, or who have unfavorable financial conditions;(3) Borrowers who have problems with loan conditions, for whom interest rates have been reduced or
shelved.

10

Although business problems are not serious or their improvement is seen to be remarkable, there are
elements of potential concern with respect to the borrower’s management, and close monitoring is required.

11

Business problems are serious, or require long-term solutions. Serious elements concerning businessadministration of the borrower have emerged, and subsequent debt repayment needs to be monitored closely.

12

Borrowers who fall under the criteria of Rating 10 or 11 and have a loan concession granted. Borrowers
who have “Loans contractually past due 90 days or more.” (As a rule, delinquent borrowers are
categorized as “Likely to Become Bankrupt,” but the definition here applies to borrowers delinquent for
90 days or more because of inheritance and other special reasons.)

13

Borrowers who pose a serious risk with respect to debt repayment, loss is likely to occur in the courseof transactions. While still not bankrupt, these borrowers are in financial difficulty, with poor progressin achieving restructuring plans, and are likely to become bankrupt in the future.

14

While not legally bankrupt, borrowers who are considered to be virtually bankrupt because they are inserious financial difficulty and have no prospects for an improvement in their business operations.

15

Borrowers who are legally bankrupt (i.e., who have no prospects for continued business operations
because of non-payment, suspension of business, voluntary liquidation, or filing for legal liquidation).

The Japanese regulatory authorities require Japanese banks to categorize borrowers as follows:‰

Normal borrowers (generally corresponding to borrowers in categories 1 through 9 in our ratings),
which are borrowers that are performing well, with no significant financial concerns,
197

‰

Borrowers requiring close watch (generally corresponding to borrowers in categories 10 through 12 inour ratings), which include loans that have been amended to allow for delays or forgiveness of interest
payments, borrowers experiencing difficulty in complying with loan terms and conditions and borrowersthat are recording losses or performing badly,‰

Borrowers likely to become bankrupt (generally corresponding to borrowers in category 13 in ourratings), which relate to borrowers who pose a serious risk with respect to debt repayment, loss is likely
to occur in the course of transactions. While still not bankrupt, these borrowers are in financial
difficulty, with poor progress in achieving restructuring plans, and are likely to become bankrupt in the
future,‰Virtually bankrupt borrowers (generally corresponding to borrowers in category 14 in our ratings),
which are not legally bankrupt, but borrowers who are considered to be virtually bankrupt because they
are in serious financial difficulty and have no prospects for an improvement in their business operations,and‰Bankrupt borrowers or de facto bankrupt borrowers (generally corresponding to borrowers in
category 15 in our ratings), which are borrowers who are legally bankrupt (i.e., who have no prospects
for continued business operations because of non-payment, suspension of business, voluntaryliquidation, or filing for legal liquidation) proceedings.

The primary data utilized in our assessment of borrowers include the borrower’s financial statements andnotes thereto as well as other public disclosure made by the borrower. In addition, when appropriate and possible,
we obtain non-public financial and operating information from borrowers, such as the borrower’s business plan,borrower’s self-evaluation of its operating assets and other borrower information about its business and products.
Based on the borrower and industry information, we assign borrower ratings mainly by applying financial
scoring models—either developed internally or by third party vendors, depending on the borrower’s attributes,
whether the borrower is domestic or foreign, whether the borrower is a large corporation or a small andmedium-sized corporation, and whether the borrower is a corporate entity or another type of legal entity (such asa school, hospital or fund).
For example, for domestic small and medium-sized corporations, which constitute the largest borrower
attribute in our current loan portfolio in terms of number of borrowers, we have adopted an internally developed
financial scoring model, exclusively designed and developed for such attribute. We have selected various
financial ratios that we believe to be useful and meaningful to quantitatively measure and assess the borrowers’
financial standing and repayment capability. Such financial ratios represent, among other things, borrowers’
growth, profitability, stability, cash flow, company size and capital efficiency. The model is periodically tested
against historical results. The following is an illustration of some of the financial ratios we utilize as part of our
financial scoring model:‰

To measure growth: Sales growth, and growth in total assets,‰

To measure profitability: Current profit to sales, and profit before tax to sales, and‰To measure stability: Equity ratio and current ratio.

The financial score obtained through the models is reviewed and, when necessary, adjusted downward toreflect our qualitative assessment of the borrower’s financial strength and other factors that could affect theborrower’s ability to service the debt. For example, we take into account: capability of turning around thebusiness (in case of borrowers with losses) or recovering positive net worth (in case of borrowers with negative
net worth), industry risk, management risk, legal risk, as well as our assessment of the probability of receiving
support from parent companies (if the borrower is a subsidiary of a large listed company).
When adjusting the results of primary financial scoring assigned to borrowers with losses, we consider theseverity of losses and the possibility of improving operating results. We analyze and assess whether the loss is198

temporary, the trend in operating results is improving, or the loss is expected to continue for an extended period.
When adjusting the results of primary financial scoring assigned to borrowers with losses or borrowers withnegative net worth, we also analyze whether the borrower can return to a positive net worth, and the time period
needed to achieve such recovery (one to two years, three to five years, or five years or more).
In addition, adjustments based on industry risk are based on future prospects, applicable laws andregulations, and other factors surrounding the industry. Adjustments for management risk reflect our assessmentof management’s track record, the composition of the management team including the board of directors, any
management succession plan as well as the risk management and compliance framework of the borrower.
Adjustments for legal risk are made when the borrower is facing a lawsuit and when there is a possibility of asignificant claim payment related to product liability, intellectual property, environmental problems, building
standard law, and other legal issues.
When assessing the probability of receiving support from parent companies, various factors are examined,
such as the parent company’s credit standings, whether key management personnel are sent by the parent,
whether the borrower is consolidated by the parent, and the proportion of the borrower in consolidated sales andprofits of the parent.
In addition, we consider outside ratings, and our internal borrower ratings may be adjusted when deemed
appropriate.
Facility risk rating
Facility risk rating is used to evaluate and classify the quality of individual credit facilities, including
guarantees and collateral. Ratings are assigned by quantitatively measuring the estimated loss rate of a facility inthe event of a default.
Structured finance rating and asset securitization rating
Structured finance rating and asset securitization rating are used to evaluate and classify the quality of
individual credit facilities, including guarantees and collateral, and focus on the structure, including theapplicable credit period, of each credit facility. In evaluating the debt service potential of a credit facility, we
scrutinize its underlying structure to determine the likelihood of the planned future cash flows being achieved.
Pool assignment
Each major banking subsidiary has its own system for pooling and rating small retail loans designed toreflect the risk profile of its loan portfolios.
Asset evaluation and assessment system
The asset evaluation and assessment system is used to classify assets held by us according to the probabilityof collection and the risk of any impairment in value based on borrower classifications consistent with theborrower ratings and the status of collateral, guarantees, and other factors.
The system is used to conduct write-offs and allocate allowances against credit risk in a timely and adequate
manner.
Quantitative Analysis of Credit Risk
MUFG and its major banking subsidiaries manage credit risk by monitoring credit amount and expected
losses, and run simulations based on internal models to estimate the maximum amount of credit risk. Thesemodels are used for internal management purposes, including loan pricing and measuring economic capital.
199

When quantifying credit risk amounts using the internal models, MUFG and its major banking subsidiaries
consider various parameters, including probability of default, loss given default, and exposure at default used intheir borrower ratings, facility risk ratings and pool assignments as well as any credit concentration risk inparticular borrower groups or industry sectors. MUFG and its major banking subsidiaries also share credit
portfolio data in appropriate cases.
Loan Portfolio Management
We aim to achieve and maintain levels of earnings commensurate with credit risk exposure. Products are
priced to take into account expected losses, based on the internal credit ratings.
We assess and monitor loan amounts and credit exposure by credit rating, industry and region. Portfolios aremanaged to limit concentrations of risk in specific categories in accordance with our Large Credit Guidelines.
To manage country risk, we have established specific credit ceilings by country. These ceilings are reviewed
when there is a material change in a country’s credit standing, in addition to being subject to a regular periodic
review.
Continuous CPM Improvement
With the prevalence of securitized products and credit derivatives in global markets, we seek to supplement
conventional CPM techniques with advanced methods based on the use of such market-based instruments.
Through credit risk quantification and portfolio management, we aim to improve the risk return profile of
the Group’s credit portfolio, using financial markets to rebalance credit portfolios in a dynamic and active
manner based on an accurate assessment of credit risk. The following diagram summarizes our CPM framework:

Risk Management of Strategic Equity Portfolio
Strategic equity investment risk is the risk of loss caused by a decline in the prices of our equity
investments.
We hold shares of various corporate clients for strategic purposes, in particular to maintain long-term
relationships with these clients. These investments have the potential to increase business revenue and appreciate
in value. At the same time, we are exposed to the risk of price fluctuation in the Japanese stock market. For that200

reason, in recent years, it has been a high priority for us to reduce our equity portfolio to limit the risks associatedwith holding a large equity portfolio, but also to respond to applicable regulatory requirements as well as
increasing market expectations and demands for us to reduce our equity portfolio. We are required to comply
with a regulatory framework that prohibits Japanese banks from holding an amount of shares in excess of theiradjusted Tier 1 capital.
We use quantitative analysis to manage the risks associated with the portfolio of equities held for strategic
purposes. According to internal calculations, the market value of our strategically held (Tokyo Stock Exchangelisted) stocks (excluding foreign stock exchange-listed stocks) as of March 31, 2017 was subject to a variation of
approximately ¥3.41 billion when TOPIX index moves one point in either direction.
We seek to manage and reduce strategic equity portfolio risk based on quantitative analysis such as thesensitivity analysis described above. The aim is to keep this risk at appropriate levels compared with Tier 1
capital while generating returns commensurate with the degree of risk exposure.
Market Risk Management
Market risk is the risk that the value of our assets and liabilities could be adversely affected by changes inmarket variables such as interest rates, securities prices, or foreign exchange rates.
Management of market risk at MUFG aims to control related risk exposure across the Group while ensuringthat earnings are commensurate with levels of risk.
Market Risk Management System
We have adopted an integrated system to manage market risk from our trading and non-trading activities.
The holding company monitors group-wide market risk, while each of the major subsidiaries manages its market
risks on a consolidated and global basis.
At each of the major subsidiaries, checks and balances are maintained through a system in which back andmiddle offices operate independently from front offices. In addition, separate Asset-Liability Management, or
ALM, Committee and Risk Management Meetings are held at each of the major subsidiaries every month todeliberate important matters related to market risk and control.
The holding company and the major subsidiaries allocate economic capital commensurate with levels ofmarket risk and determined within the scope of their capital bases. The major subsidiaries have establishedquantitative limits relating to market risk based on their allocated economic capital. In addition, in order to keep
losses within predetermined limits, the major subsidiaries have also set limits for the maximum amount of losses
arising from market activities. The following diagram summarizes the market risk management system of eachmajor subsidiary:Market Risk Management System of Our Major Subsidiaries

Market Risk Management and Control
At the holding company and the major subsidiaries, market risk exposure is reported to the Chief Risk
Management Officers on a daily basis. At the holding company, the Chief Risk Management Officer monitors
market risk exposure across the Group as well as the major subsidiaries’ control over their quantitative limits formarket risk and losses. Meanwhile, the Chief Risk Management Officers at the major subsidiaries monitor theirown market risk exposure and their control over their quantitative limits for market risk and losses. In addition,
various analyses on risk profiles, including stress testing, are conducted and reported to the Executive
Committees and the Corporate Risk Management Committees on a regular basis. At the business unit levels in
the major subsidiaries, the market risks on their marketable assets and liabilities, such as interest rate risk andforeign exchange rate risk, are controlled by entering into various hedging transactions using marketablesecurities and derivatives.
As part of our market risk management activities, we use certain derivative financial instruments to manage
our interest rate and currency exposures. We maintain an overall interest rate risk management strategy thatincorporates the use of interest rate contracts to minimize significant unplanned fluctuations in earnings that arecaused by interest rate volatility. We enter into interest rate swaps and other contracts as part of our interest raterisk management strategy primarily to alter the interest rate sensitivity of our loans, investment securities anddeposit liabilities. Our principal objectives in risk management include asset and liability management. Asset andliability management is viewed as one of the methods for us to manage our interest rate exposures on interestearning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest rate contracts, which are generally non-leveraged genericinterest rate and basis swaps, options and futures, allow us to effectively manage our interest rate risk position.
Option contracts primarily consist of caps, floors, swaptions and options on index futures. Futures contracts used
for asset and liability management activities are primarily index futures providing for cash payments based upon
the movement of an underlying rate index. We enter into forward exchange contracts, currency swaps and othercontracts in response to currency exposures resulting from on-balance sheet assets and liabilities denominated inforeign currencies in order to limit the net foreign exchange position by currency to an appropriate level.
These market risk management activities are performed in accordance with the predetermined rules andprocedures. The internal auditors regularly verify the appropriateness of the management controls over these
activities and the risk evaluation models adopted.
Market Risk Measurement Model
Market risks consist of general risks and specific risks. General market risks result from changes in entire
markets, while specific risks relate to changes in the prices of individual stocks and bonds which are independentof the overall direction of the market.
To measure market risks, MUFG uses the VaR method which estimates changes in the market value of
portfolios within a certain period by statistically analyzing past market data. Since the daily variation in market
risk is significantly greater than that in other types of risk, MUFG measures and manages market risk using VaR
on a daily basis.
Market risk for trading and non-trading activities is measured using a uniform market risk measurement
model. The principal model used for these activities is a historical simulation, or HS, model (holding period,
10 business days; confidence interval, 99%; and observation period, 701 business days). The HS model
calculates VaR amounts by estimating the profit and loss on the current portfolio by applying actual fluctuations
in market rates and prices over a fixed period in the past. This method is designed to capture certain statisticallyinfrequent movements, such as a fat tail, and accounts for the characteristics of financial instruments with
non-linear behavior. The holding company and banking subsidiaries also use the HS model as part of thecalculation of their Basel III regulatory capital adequacy ratios.
In calculating VaR using the HS method, we have implemented an integrated market risk measurement
system throughout the Group. Our major subsidiaries calculate their VaR based on the risk and market data202

prepared by the information systems of their front offices and other departments. The major subsidiaries provide
this risk data to the holding company, which calculates overall VaR, taking into account the diversification effectamong all portfolios of the major subsidiaries.
For the purpose of internally evaluating capital adequacy on an economic capital basis in terms of market
risk, we use this market risk measurement model to calculate risk amounts based on a holding period of one year
and a confidence interval of 99.9%.
Monitoring and managing our sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations is the key to managing market risk in
MUFG’s non-trading activities. The major banking subsidiaries take the following approach to measuring risks
concerning core deposits, loan prepayments and early deposit withdrawals.
To measure interest rate risk relating to deposits without contract-based fixed maturities, the amount of“core deposits” is calculated through a statistical analysis based on deposit balance trend data and the outlook forinterest rates on deposits, business decisions, and other factors. The amount of “core deposit” is categorized into
various groups of maturity terms of up to ten years to recognize interest rate risk. The calculation assumptions
and methods to determine the amount of core deposits and maturity term categorization are regularly reviewed.
Meanwhile, deposits and loans with contract-based maturities are sometimes cancelled or repaid before theirmaturity dates. To measure interest rate risk for these deposits and loans, we reflect these early termination
events mainly by applying early termination rates calculated based on a statistical analysis of historical
repayment and cancellation data together with historical market interest rate data.
Summaries of Market Risks (Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017)
Trading activities
The aggregate VaR for our total trading activities as of March 31, 2017was ¥15.87 billion, comprisinginterest rate risk exposure of ¥15.21 billion, foreign exchange risk exposure of ¥6.14 billion, and equity-related
risk exposure of ¥1.89 billion. Compared with the VaR as of March 31, 2016, we experienced a decrease inmarket risk during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, primarily due to a decrease in foreign exchange risk andinterest rate risk.
Our average daily VaR for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was ¥17.52 billion. Based on a simple sumof figures across market risk categories, interest rate risk accounted for approximately 63%, foreign exchange
risk for approximately 30% and equity-related risk for approximately 7%, of our total trading activity market
risks.
Due to the nature of trading operations which involves frequent changes in trading positions, market risk
varied substantially during the fiscal year, depending on our trading positions.
The following tables set forth the VaR related to our trading activities by risk category for the periods

The quantitative market risk figures from trading activities tend to fluctuate widely due to the market
sensitive nature of the trading business. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the revenue from our
trading activities has been relatively stable, keeping positive numbers in 247 days out of 261 trading days in the
period. During the same period, there were 123 days with positive revenue exceeding ¥1 billion and 6 days withnegative revenue exceeding minus ¥1 billion.
Non-trading Activities
The aggregate VaR for our total non-trading activities as of March 31, 2017, excluding market risks related
to our strategic equity portfolio and measured using the same standards as trading activities, was ¥372.0 billion.
Market risk related to interest rates equaled ¥273.1 billion and equities-related risk equaled ¥259.3 billion.
Compared with the VaR as of March 31, 2016, we experienced a decrease in market risk during the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017, primarily due to a decrease in interest rate risk. For a description of our strategic equity
investment risk management, see “-Risk Management of Strategic Equity Portfolio.”
Based on a simple sum of figures across market risk categories, interest rate risks accounted forapproximately 51% of our total non-trading activity market risks. Looking at a breakdown of interest rate related
risk by currency, as of March 31, 2017, the yen accounted for approximately 61% while the U.S. dollar
accounted for approximately 31%, and the euro approximately 8%.

Comparing the proportion of each currency’s interest rate VaR to the total interest rate VaR as of March 31,2017 against that as of March 31, 2016, there was a 15 percentage point increase in the Japanese yen from 46%
to 61%, a 7 percentage point decrease in the U.S. dollar from 38% to 31%, and a 8 percentage point decrease in
the euro from 16% to 8%.
Backtesting
We conduct backtesting in which a VaR is compared with hypothetical profits and losses on a daily basis toverify the accuracy of our VaR measurement model. We also conduct additional backtesting using othermethods, including testing VaR against actual realized and unrealized losses and testing VaR by various
changing parameters such as confidence intervals and observation periods used in the model.
Hypothetical losses never exceeded VaR in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. This means that our VaR
model provided reasonably accurate measurements of market risk during the fiscal year.

The following graph shows daily VaR of trading activities and the distribution of corresponding
hypothetical profits and losses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017:

The following graph shows VaR of trading activities and hypothetical profits and losses on a daily basis forthe fiscal year ended March 31, 2017:

Stress Testing
We use an HS-VaR model, which calculates potential changes in the market value of our portfolio as astatistically possible amount of losses that could be incurred due to market fluctuations within a certain period (orholding period, of 10 business days) based on historical market volatility for a certain period (or observation
period, of 701 business days, or approximately three years). Actual losses may exceed the value at risk obtainedby the application of the model in the event, for example, that the market fluctuates to a degree not accounted forin the observation period, or that the correlations among various risk factors, including interest rates and foreign
currency exchange rates, deviate from those assumed in the model.
206

In order to complement these weaknesses of the HS-VaR model and measure potential losses that the model
is not designed to capture, we conduct stress testing. For example, we measure on a quarterly basis potential
losses that could be incurred in our portfolio by applying various stress scenarios, including the 10-year mostextreme movement in each of the risk factors as well as actual past market movement observed beyond the
10 year historical observation period. Through daily stress testing, we estimate maximum potential losses in eachmarket on the current trading portfolio based on the worst ten-day historical volatility recorded during the VaR
observation period of 701 days. As of March 31, 2017, we held a total trading activity position subject toestimated maximum potential losses of ¥10.8 billion as compared to ¥21.6 billion as of March 31, 2016. In
addition, the holding company and major subsidiaries conduct stress testing, as appropriate, by applying various
stress scenarios, including those which take into account estimates regarding future market volatility, in order tobetter identify risks and manage our portfolio in a more stable and appropriate manner. The holding company andmajor subsidiaries also measure stressed VaR relating to their trading activities based on a one-year observation
period with the highest VaR at least in the immediately preceding ten years.
Liquidity Risk Management
Liquidity risk is the risk of incurring losses if a poor financial position hampers the ability to meet funding
requirements, or necessitates fund procurement at interest rates markedly higher than normal.
Our major subsidiaries maintain appropriate liquidity in both Japanese yen and foreign currencies bymanaging their funding sources and mechanisms, such as liquidity gap, liquidity-supplying products such ascommitment lines, and buffer assets.
We have established a group-wide system for managing liquidity risk by categorizing the risk in thefollowing three stages: normal, concern and crisis. The front offices and risk management offices of the major
subsidiaries and the holding company exchange information and data on liquidity risk even at the normal stage.
At higher alert stages, we centralize information about liquidity risk and discuss issues relating to group-wide
liquidity control actions among group companies, if necessary. We have also established a system for liaison andconsultation on funding in preparation for contingency, such as natural disasters, wars and terrorist attacks. The
holding company and the major subsidiaries conduct group-wide contingency preparedness drills on a regularbasis to ensure smooth implementation in the event of an emergency.
In addition, we have established a group-wide system for ensuring compliance with the minimum regulatory
liquidity coverage ratio requirements by categorizing the risk in the following three stages: sufficient, concern
and insufficient. The holding company and the major subsidiaries exchange information and data on LCR even at
the sufficient stage. At higher alert stages, we hold group-wide LCR liaison meetings to discuss issues relating to
LCR and, based on the discussion as well as the information and data that have been shared, takecountermeasures to improve LCR as necessary.
For more information, see “Item 5.B. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital
Resources—Financial Condition—Sources of Funding and Liquidity.”
Operational Risk Management
Operational risk refers to the risk of loss caused by either internal control issues such as inadequate
operational processes or misconduct, system failures, or external factors such as serious political instability,
major terrorist activity, health epidemics or natural disasters. The term includes a broad range of risks that could
lead to losses, including operations risk, information asset risk, tangible asset risk, personnel risk, legal risk andreputation risk. These risks that comprise operational risk are referred to as sub-category risks.
The holding company has established, based on its Executive Committee’s determination, the MUFG
Operational Risk Management Policy as a group-wide policy for managing operational risk. This policy sets
forth the core principles regarding operational risk management, including the definition of operational risk, andthe risk management system and processes. The policy also requires the board of directors and the Executive
Committee to formulate fundamental principles of operational risk management and establish and maintain an
207

appropriate risk management system. The Chief Risk Management Officer is responsible for recognizing,evaluating, and appropriately managing operational risk in accordance with the fundamental principles
formulated by the board of directors and the Executive Committee. A division in charge of operational risk
management has been established that is independent of business promotion sections to manage overall
operational risk in a comprehensive manner. These fundamental principles have also been approved by theboards of directors of the major subsidiaries, providing a consistent framework for operational risk managementof the Group. The diagram below sets forth the operational risk management system of each major banking
subsidiary:

As set forth in the following diagram, we have established a risk management framework for loss datacollection, control self assessment, and measurement of operational risk in order to appropriately identify,
recognize, evaluate, measure, control, monitor and report operational risk.
We have also established group-wide reporting guidelines with respect to loss data collection and its
monitoring. We focus our efforts on ensuring accurate assessment of the status of operational risk losses and theimplementation of appropriate countermeasures, while maintaining databases of internal and external loss events.

Operations Risk Management
Operations risk refers to the risk of loss that is attributable to the actions of executives or employees,
whether accidental or the result of neglect or deliberate misconduct. The Group companies offer a wide range offinancial services, ranging from commercial banking products such as deposits, exchange services and loans totrust and related services covering pensions, securities, real estate and securitization, as well as transfer agent
services. Cognizant of the potentially significant impact that operations risk-related events could have in terms ofboth economic losses and damage to our reputation, our banking subsidiaries continue to work on improving
their management systems to create and apply appropriate operations risk-related controls.
Specific ongoing measures to reduce operations risk include the development of databases to manage,
analyze and prevent the recurrence of related loss events; efforts to tighten controls over administrative
procedures and related operating authority, while striving to improve human resources management; investments
in systems to improve the efficiency of administrative operations; and programs to expand and upgrade internal
auditing and operational guidance systems.
Senior management receives regular reports on the status of our businesses from an operations risk
management perspective. We work to promote the sharing within the Group of information and expertise
concerning any operational incidents and the measures implemented to prevent any recurrence.
Efforts to upgrade the management of operations risk continue with the aim of providing our customers witha variety of high-quality services.
Information Asset Risk Management
Information asset risk refers to the risk of loss caused by loss, alteration, falsification or leakage of
information, or by destruction, disruption, errors or misuse of information systems, as well as risks similar to this209

risk. In order to ensure proper handling of information and prevent loss or leakage of information, our majorbanking subsidiaries strive to better manage and reduce such risks through the appointment of managers withspecific responsibilities for information security issues, the establishment of internal procedures, training courses
designed for all staff, and the implementation of measures to ensure stable IT systems control. We have also
formulated the Personal Information Protection Policy as the basis for ongoing programs to protect theconfidentiality of personal information.
Systems planning, development and operations include appropriate design and extensive testing phases toensure that systems are designed to help prevent failures while providing sufficient safeguards for the security of
personal information. The status of the development of any mission-critical IT systems is reported regularly tosenior management. We have developed disaster countermeasures systems and have also been investing in
duplication of the Group’s IT infrastructure to minimize damage in the event of any system failure. Emergency
drills are conducted to help increase staff preparedness.
With the aim of preventing any recurrence, we also work to promote sharing of information within theGroup related to the causes of any loss or leakage of information, or system failure.
In addition, management recognizes the threat of increasingly sophisticated cyber-attacks as a significant
risk, and continues to work to strengthen measures designed to address and mitigate the risk, including theestablishment of a Computer Emergency Response Team, or MUFG-CERT, implementation of multi-layered
defense and detection measures, enhancement of monitoring systems through the Security Operation Centersestablished in Japan, the United States, Europe and Asia, and cooperation with domestic and overseasorganizations with relevant expertise. Management regularly examines and updates its assessment of the risk andthe measures.
Under our information asset risk management framework, a team of cyber security personnel in MUFGCERT are charged with the responsibility of taking, coordinating and managing prompt action in response to
cyber security incidents to mitigate their impact.
Tangible Asset Risk Management
Tangible asset risk refers to the risk of loss due to damage to tangible assets or deterioration in theoperational environment caused by disasters or inadequate asset maintenance, as well as risks similar to this risk.
Tangible assets include movable physical properties and immovable properties, owned or leased, such as land,buildings, equipment attached to buildings, fixtures and furniture. We recognize the potentially significant impact
tangible asset risk-related events can have on the management and execution of the Group’s businesses, which inturn can result in economic losses to, or diminished market confidence in, the Group. Accordingly, we continue
to improve our risk control framework designed to appropriately manage such risk.
Personnel Risk Management
Personnel risk refers to the risk of loss due to an outflow or loss of human resources or deterioration in
employee morale, as well as risks similar to this risk. We recognize the potentially significant impact personnel
risk-related events can have on the management and execution of the Group’s businesses, which in turn can
result in economic losses to, or diminished market confidence in, the Group. Accordingly, we continue to workon improving our risk control framework designed to appropriately manage such risk.
Legal Risk Management
Legal risk refers to the risk of loss due to failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations, adequately
evaluate contractual rights and obligations, or appropriately deal with disputes, as well as other similar risks. We
recognize the potentially significant impact legal risk-related events can have on the management and execution
210

of the Group’s businesses, which in turn can result in economic, reputation and other losses to, or diminishedmarket confidence in, the Group. Accordingly, we continue to work on improving our risk control framework
designed to appropriately manage such risk.
Specifically, in order to promote compliance, we have established our Principles of Ethics and Conduct as
the basic legal compliance policy for the Group’s directors and employees. In addition, a compliancemanagement division has been established at each of the holding company and the major subsidiaries. See“—Compliance” below. Moreover, the legal division at each of the holding company and the major subsidiaries
centrally and uniformly evaluates legal issues prior to entering into contracts, deals with disputes and manages
other legal matters. Through these and other measures, we endeavor to effectively manage our legal risk.
Reputation Risk Management
Reputation risk refers to the risk of loss due to deterioration in reputation as a consequence of the spread ofrumors among customers or in the market, or as a consequence of our inadequate response to particularsituations, as well as risks similar to this risk. We recognize the potentially significant impact reputation riskrelated events can have on the management and execution of the Group’s businesses, which in turn can result in
economic losses to, or diminished market confidence in, the Group. Accordingly, we continue to work on
improving our risk control framework designed to appropriately manage such risk.
Specifically, in order to manage our reputation risk effectively on a group-wide basis, we have established arisk management system designed to ensure mutual consultation and reporting if a reputation risk-related event
occurs or is anticipated and, through this system, share relevant information within the Group.
Through the risk control framework and risk management system, we seek to minimize damage to thereputation and credibility of, and the market confidence in, the Group by promptly obtaining an accurate
understanding of relevant facts relating to reputation risk-related events and disclosing information concerning
the events and the measures we take in response to such events in an appropriate and timely manner.
Regulatory Capital Requirements for Operational Risk
(1) Adoption of the Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA)
We have employed the AMA since March 31, 2012, in place of the Standardized Approach that we had beenusing previously, for calculation of the operational risk equivalent amount in connection with measuring capital
adequacy ratios based on the Basel Standards. On the other hand, we use the Basic Indicator Approach, or BIA,
for entities that are deemed to be less important in the calculation of the operational risk equivalent amount andfor entities that are still preparing to implement the AMA.
(2) Outline of AMA
We have established a measurement model designed to account for four data elements—internal loss data,
external loss data, scenario analysis, and business environment and internal control factors, or BEICFs—andcalculate the operational risk equivalent amount by estimating the maximum loss using a 99.9th percentile
one-tailed confidence interval and a one-year holding period.
In calculating the operational risk equivalent amount, we exclude expected losses relating to the amount ofallowance for repayment of excess interest associated with the consumer finance business of a subsidiary. We do
not exclude any other expected losses and do not reflect the risk mitigating impact of insurance. In addition, we
take into account credit risk-related events that are not reflected in the measurement of the credit risk equivalentamount.
211

(3) Outline of Measurement Model
Our operational risk equivalent amount measured under the AMA is a simple sum of the amounts calculated
separately for (1) BTMU on a consolidated basis, (2) MUTB on a consolidated basis, and (3) the holding
company and other principal consolidated subsidiaries, in accordance with applicable FSA rules. For each of
BTMU and MUTB on a consolidated basis, the operational risk equivalent amount is a simple sum of theamounts calculated based on the seven loss event types defined by the Basel Standards. For other Group
companies, the operational risk equivalent amount is a simple sum of the amounts calculated based on eight loss
event types consisting of the seven loss event types defined by the Basel Standards and an additional loss event
type representing losses relating to repayment of excess interest associated with the consumer finance business ofa subsidiary. We do not reflect the correlation effects among the loss event types in the calculation of ouroperational risk equivalent amount.

Risk Equivalent AmountThe risk equivalent amount for each loss event type represents the amount of maximum loss estimated witha 99.9th percentile one-tailed confidence interval and a one-year holding period based on the distribution oflosses arising from all relevant risk events for a one-year period (Loss Distribution). A Loss Distribution
combines a Frequency Distribution (through which the frequency of occurrence of risk events is expressed) and a
Loss Severity Distribution (through which the amounts of losses resulting from risk events are expressed)
through Monte Carlo simulations. The data used for this purpose include internal loss data and scenario data.
Scenario data are generated through a scenario analysis. External data and BEICFs are taken into account in the
scenario analysis and reflected in scenario data. The Frequency Distribution is derived from the occurrence
frequency information in internal loss data and scenario data expressed through a Poisson Distribution. The Loss
Severity Distribution is derived from the amount information in internal loss data and scenario data expressed ina non-parametric manner (where no underlying distribution is assumed).
With respect to the risk of losses relating to repayment of excess interest associated with the consumer
finance business of a subsidiary, the risk equivalent amount represents the amount of maximum loss estimatedwith a 99.9th percentile one–tailed confidence interval and a one-year holding period based on a normal
distribution assumed by applying data on losses that arose in a given period, excluding any related expected
losses.
We confirm the appropriateness of the measurement models by periodic verification and back testing.
(4) Outline of Scenario Analysis
As an initial step of our scenario analysis, we identify potential severe loss events that we have notexperienced but may potentially experience in the future. In this identification process, we seek to ensure212

exhaustive coverage of potential severe loss events by comprehensively examining our experience relating to loss
events and legal proceedings, external loss data, the control self-assessment results and other relevant
information.
In the next step, we prepare scenario data for each identified severe loss event by quantifying the values
depending on its occurrence frequency and loss severity, taking into account relevant transaction amounts andrestructuring costs as well as BEICFs. In preparing scenario data, we apply an analysis method we deem
appropriate for the type and nature of the operational risk involved.
In order to obtain an operational risk equivalent amount that is commensurate with, and appropriate for, ourrisk profile, we assess the need for an additional scenario or modification to our existing scenarios semi-annually.
We then reflect, as necessary, new risks arising as a result of changes in the business environment and theresults of the implementation of measures to enhance our internal controls in response to newly identified risks inour scenario data.
Model Risk Management
Model risk refers to the risk of loss due to decision-making based on information provided by an inaccurate
model or the misuse of a model. We recognize the potentially significant impact model risk-related events canhave on the management and execution of the Group’s businesses, which in turn can result in economic losses to,or diminished market confidence in, the Group. Models are used for increasingly wider and more important
purposes, including valuing exposures, instruments and positions, measuring risks, and determining capital
adequacy. Accordingly, we continue to work on improving our risk control framework.
Compliance
Basic Policy
We have clarified our mission, our vision and our values in the Corporate Vision and have expressed ourcommitment to meeting the expectations of customers and society as a whole. Furthermore, we have establishedPrinciples of Ethics and Conduct as the guidelines for how the Group’s directors and employees act to realize the
Corporate Vision, in which we have expressed our commitment to complying with laws and regulations, toacting with honesty and integrity, and to behaving in a manner that supports and strengthens the trust andconfidence of society.
In addition, as we expand the geographic scope of our business globally, we are committed to keeping
abreast with developments in laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate including anti-money
laundering and anti-bribery, as well as paying attention to trends in financial crimes.

Compliance Framework
Management and coordination of compliance-related matters are the responsibility of separate compliancemanagement divisions established at the holding company and the major subsidiaries. Each compliancemanagement division formulates compliance programs and organizes training courses to promote compliance,and regularly reports to each company’s board of directors and Executive Committee on the status of complianceactivities.
The holding company has established a Group Compliance Committee and each major subsidiary has
established a Compliance Committee for deliberating key issues related to compliance. Additionally, the holding
company has a Group Chief Compliance Officer, or CCO, Committee, which consists of the CCO of the holding
company acting as committee chairman and the CCOs of the major subsidiaries. The Group CCO Committee
deliberates important matters related to compliance and compliance-related issues for which the Group shouldshare a common understanding.

Internal Audit
Role of Internal Audit
Internal audit functions within MUFG seek to verify the adequacy and effectiveness of internal control
systems from a standpoint independent of the operating functions. This includes monitoring the status of risk
management and compliance systems, which are critical to the maintenance of sound and appropriate business
operations. Internal audit results are reported to senior management. An additional role of internal audit is tomake suggestions to help improve or rectify any issues or specific problems that are identified.
Group Internal Audit Framework
The holding company has instituted MUFG’s internal audit policy to define the policy, function andorganizational position of internal audits. Separate internal audit divisions have been created within the holding
company and certain subsidiaries. Through close cooperation and collaboration among the internal audit
divisions of the holding company and these subsidiaries, these internal audit divisions provide coverage for theGroup and also support the board of directors of the holding company in monitoring and overseeing all MUFG
operations.
In addition to having primary responsibility for initiating and preparing plans and proposals related tointernal audits of the Group, the internal audit division at the holding company monitors and, as necessary,guides, advises and administers the internal audit divisions of subsidiaries and affiliated companies. The internal
audit divisions within the major subsidiaries conduct audits of the respective head office and branch operations ofthese companies. In addition, each of these internal audit divisions undertakes direct audits of their respective
subsidiaries, and monitors and oversees the separate internal audit functions established within them. This helps
to evaluate and verify the adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls within MUFG on a consolidated basis.
Implementing Effective and Efficient Internal Audits
To ensure that internal audit processes use available resources with optimal effectiveness and efficiency, theinternal audit divisions implement risk-focused internal audits in which the nature and magnitude of theassociated risks are considered in determining audit priorities and the frequency and depth of internal audit
activities. The internal audit divisions ensure that audit personnel attend key meetings, collect important internal
control documents and access databases to facilitate efficient off-site monitoring.
217

Reports to the Audit Committee
The holding company has an audit committee within its board of directors as required by the Companies Act
of Japan, and each of the major subsidiaries has established an audit and supervisory committee or an internal
audit and compliance committee. Within each of the holding company and the major subsidiaries, the internal
audit division reports to the committee on important matters, including the results of the internal audits and basic
policies for planning internal audits.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including the Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and the Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, of the effectiveness ofour disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of1934, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report.
Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures wereeffective as of March 31, 2017.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control overfinancial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, MUFG’s principal executive andprincipal financial officers, and effected by MUFG’s board of directors, management, and other personnel, toprovide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:(i)pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect thetransactions and dispositions of the assets of MUFG,(ii)

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation offinancial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts andexpenditures of MUFG are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management anddirectors of MUFG, and(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use
or disposition of MUFG’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, may
not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree ofcompliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31,2017 based on the criteria established in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by theCommittee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the evaluation, management
has concluded that MUFG maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2017.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2017 has been audited by
Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu LLC, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in its report,
presented on page 222.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc.
(Kabushiki Kaisha Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group)
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc.
(Kabushiki Kaisha Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group) (“MUFG”) and subsidiaries (together, the “MUFG Group”)
as of March 31, 2017, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The MUFG Group’s management is
responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of theeffectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
MUFG Group’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our
audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that amaterial weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control basedon the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of,
the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, andeffected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes inaccordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting
includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonableassurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordancewith generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being madeonly in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonableassurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of thecompany’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility ofcollusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal
control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the MUFG Group maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control overfinancial reporting as of March 31, 2017, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated
Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board(United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2017 of the
MUFG Group and our report dated July 14, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated
financial statements.

Review of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu LLC’s Independence
On April 14, 2017, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu LLC (“Tohmatsu”) advised MUFG’s Audit Committee that it
had recently identified a violation of SEC independence rules. SEC rules prohibit, among other things, certain
audit firm personnel and their immediate family members from holding deposit accounts with audit clients with abalance in excess of deposit insurance limits. The violation that was reported by Tohmatsu involved a foreign
currency deposit account at BTMU, which was not protected by deposit insurance in Japan. This account washeld by the spouse of a partner who at the time was the Lead Audit Partner with respect to the Japanese GAAP
audits on the financial statements of BOT Lease Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of MUFG, and who also at the time
served in an engagement quality control reviewer role for the Japanese GAAP audits on the financial statementsof MUSHD, MUMSS and Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS. Tohmatsu reported that the foreign currency deposit accounthad a maximum outstanding balance of U.S.$10,292.00 during the fiscal years covered by the audited financial
statements included in this Annual Report through March 2017. Tohmatsu also advised that the account had beenclosed, and the partner had been removed from the audit engagement team.
On June 28, 2017, Tohmatsu advised MUFG’s Audit Committee that it had identified an additional violationof SEC independence rules. The violation involved a Japanese yen deposit account at BTMU and a securities
brokerage account at kabu.com Securities held by the spouse of a professional who was involved for four days
between February 27, 2017 and March 3, 2017 in the Japanese GAAP audit and the U.S. GAAP audit on thefinancial statements of MUTB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. Tohmatsu reported that, between
April 27, 2017 and June 1, 2017, the Japanese yen deposit account at BTMU had a maximum outstanding224

balance of ¥34,490,884, which exceeded the deposit insurance limit of ¥10 million for interest-accruing accounts
in Japan, and the securities brokerage account at kabu.com Securities had a maximum balance of ¥19,569,759,
which exceed the Japan Investor Protection Fund compensation limit of ¥10 million. Tohmatsu also advised thatthe professional had been removed from the audit engagement team.
Tohmatsu reported the violations to MUFG’s Audit Committee and stated in communications to the Audit
Committee, as required by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Rule 3526, that Tohmatsu had:(a) conducted internal investigations of the relevant facts and circumstances, and (b) concluded that Tohmatsu’s
objectivity, impartiality and integrity with respect to its audit on MUFG’s financial statements were unaffectedby the violations. Among other things, Tohmatsu reported and represented to MUFG’s Audit Committee that:(1) in the case of the holding of the foreign currency deposit by the spouse of the partner,‰

the partner was not in a position to influence the U.S. GAAP audits on the relevant subsidiaries, as
his involvement was limited to Japanese GAAP audits and the U.S. audit work performed on therelevant subsidiaries was reviewed by a separate partner; and‰the partner was not aware of the spouse’s holding of the foreign currency deposit at the time of theaudit of MUFG Group under Japanese GAAP; and(2) in the case of the holding of Japanese yen deposit account and securities brokerage account by the
spouse of the professional,‰

the audit work performed by the professional on MUTB was reviewed by her supervisors,
including a senior manager and a partner who had no knowledge of the violation at the time of
their review;‰a special review of the audit work performed by the professional on MUTB was conducted by anaudit partner on the audit engagement team to confirm that her audit work in question did notaffect the objectivity, impartiality or integrity of the audit of MUTB; and‰the professional was involved in the audits on MUTB for only four days, and the violation
occurred in a period subsequent to the four days.

Further, Tohmatsu reported to the Audit Committee that corrective action to address the violation was taken,
and that there are no other violations. Tohmatsu also reported that it had reported all identified violations, andrepresented its good faith belief that there should not be any unidentified violations.
The Audit Committee engaged counsel to review the circumstances relating to the violation reported by
Tohmatsu. Based on discussions with Tohmatsu following Tohmatsu’s report, and after undertaking its own
work to review the situation, the Audit Committee concluded that Tohmatsu’s ability to exercise objective andimpartial judgment on issues within the scope of its audit of MUFG’s U.S. GAAP financial statements has notbeen impaired. Based on this determination, the Audit Committee concluded that the audited financial statements
may be included in MUFG’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
In addition to the above violation of SEC independence rules, as disclosed in our Annual Reports on Form
20-F for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and 2016, Tohmatsu previously reported other violations relating
to the fiscal years covered by the audited financial statements included in this Annual Report. In July 2015,
Tohmatsu advised MUFG’s Audit Committee that a senior partner who at the time served in an executive
management role at Tohmatsu and was in the Chain of Command of Tohmatsu’s audit engagement of MUFG’s
financial statements had a savings account balance at BTMU that was not in compliance with SEC independence
rules. Tohmatsu also informed MUFG’s Audit Committee in July 2015 that three partners and five staff members
on Tohmatsu’s audit team for MUFG’s subsidiaries or affiliates had bank account balances in excess of theJapanese deposit insurance limits. In connection with its remedial efforts, Tohmatsu identified additional
225violations of SEC independence rules, including violations by a partner in the Chain of Command, partners andother members of Tohmatsu’s audit engagement teams for MUFG and its subsidiaries and affiliates, otherpersons covered by SEC independence rules, and their spouses. From July 2015 through July 2016, there were 70
such additional violations involving 62 individuals. In addition to violations resulting from bank accounts thatwere not protected by (or with balances in excess of) deposit insurance limits—which comprised the substantial
majority of violations—other violations were outstanding credit card balances in excess of the SEC’s permitted
balance amount, bonds and loans prohibited by the SEC rules, and mutual fund, money fund, or money trust
account holdings managed by MUFG’s subsidiaries and affiliates prohibited by the SEC rules.
Prior to the filing of MUFG’s previous Annual Reports on Form 20-F, the Audit Committee had concluded
that Tohmatsu’s ability to exercise objective and impartial judgment on issues within the scope of its audit of
MUFG’s U.S. GAAP financial statements had not been impaired. Based on this determination, the Audit
Committee also concluded that the audited financial statements may be included in MUFG’s previous Annual
Reports on Form 20-F for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and 2016.
The Audit Committee is continuing its discussions with Tohmatsu about the remedial measures Tohmatsu
has taken, and will take in the future, to further enhance its policies and procedures to prevent violations of SEC
independence rules by Tohmatsu personnel, in addition to the corrective measures it has implemented in responseto the violations previously discovered.

Item 16F. Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
None.
Item 16G. Corporate Governance.
The NYSE allows NYSE-listed companies that are foreign private issuers, such as MUFG, with certain
exceptions, to follow home-country practices in lieu of the corporate governance practices followed by
U.S. companies pursuant to the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual. The following is a summary of the significant
differences between MUFG’s corporate governance practices and those followed by U.S. listed companies under
the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual.
1. A NYSE-listed U.S. company must have a majority of directors that meet the independence
requirements under Section 303A of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual.
As of the date of this Annual Report, we have eight outside directors as members of our board of directors,
which consists of a total of eighteen members. Under our governance system, we are required to have a majorityof outside directors on each of our nominating, audit and compensation committees. For a description of an
outside director, see “Item 6.C. Directors and Senior Management—Board Practices.”
The Tokyo Stock Exchange rules require listed companies, including us, to identify at least one individual
who the company believes is unlikely to have a conflict of interest with general shareholders and have suchindividual serve as an independent director or outside corporate auditor.
Further, a listed company with fewer than two outside directors who are considered independent based onsuch internal standards as the company establishes pursuant to the Tokyo Stock Exchange requirements must
publicly disclose the reason for not having at least two such directors on its board of directors. In addition, if alisted company determines that at least one-third of the members of its board of directors should be independent
outside directors, the listed company must disclose its policy relating to the determination. We have adopted and227made public our corporate governance policy providing, among other things, that, in general cases, at least
one-third of the members of our board of directors will be independent outside directors, and that, in generalcases, the majority of the members of our board of directors will be non-executive directors.
2. A NYSE-listed U.S. company must have an audit committee composed entirely of independent
directors.
Under the Companies Act, we are required to have an audit committee consisting of at least three
non-executive directors, and the majority of its members must be outside directors. Currently, our audit
committee consists of three outside directors and two non-executive directors. Our audit committee satisfies therequirements of Rule 10A-3 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including the independence
requirements thereunder.
3. A NYSE-listed U.S. company must have a compensation committee composed entirely of independent
directors.
Under the Companies Act, we are required to have a compensation committee consisting of at least three
directors, and the majority of its members must be outside directors. Currently, our compensation committee
consists of five directors, four of whom are outside directors.
4. A NYSE-listed U.S. company must have a nominating or corporate governance committee composed
entirely of independent directors.
Under the Companies Act, we are required to have a nominating committee consisting of at least three
directors, and the majority of its members must be outside directors. Currently, our nominating committee, which
we call the nominating and governance committee, consists of five directors, four of whom are outside directors.
5. A NYSE-listed U.S. company must obtain shareholder approval with respect to any equity
compensation plan.
Under the Companies Act, an equity compensation plan for directors and corporate executive officers isdeemed to be compensation for the services performed by the company’s directors and corporate executive
officers. Our compensation committee establishes the policy with respect to the determination of the individualcompensation of our directors and corporate executive officers, including equity compensation in the form of
performance-based stock compensation plan, and determines individual compensation in accordance with thepolicy. Under the Companies Act, a public company with board audit, compensation and nominating committees
seeking to introduce a performance-based stock compensation plan must obtain the approval of its compensationcommittee, not its shareholders.
6. A NYSE-listed U.S. company must adopt and disclose Corporate Governance Guidelines and a Code ofBusiness Conduct and Ethics, and it must also disclose any exemptions granted to directors or executives.
Our corporate governance policies, which are called the “MUFG Corporate Governance Policies,” are basedon applicable home-country rules, particularly the Tokyo Stock Exchange rules, which require listed companies,
such as us, to adopt a corporate governance code setting forth fundamental principles designed to establish aneffective corporate governance system or explain in their corporate governance reports the reasons for not
adopting such a code. We disclose these policies on our website.
We have adopted a code of ethics, compliance rules and a compliance manual, which meet the definition of“code of ethics” in “Item 16B. Code of Ethics.”

228

7. A NYSE-listed U.S. company must hold regularly scheduled executive sessions where participants arelimited to non-management directors.
Under the Companies Act, Japanese corporations are not obliged to hold executive sessions whereparticipants are limited to non-management directors. Such executive sessions are also not required under ourinternal corporate governance rules.
Item 16H. Mine Safety Disclosure.
Not Applicable.

SELECTED STATISTICAL DATA
Due to close integration of our foreign and domestic activities, it is difficult to make a precise determinationof the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of our foreign operations. The foreign operations as presented
include the business conducted by overseas subsidiaries and branches, and the international business principally
conducted by the international banking-related divisions headquartered in Japan. Our management believes thatthe results appropriately represent our domestic and foreign activities.

Notes:(1) Tax-exempt income of tax-exempt investment securities has not been calculated on a tax equivalent basis because the effect of suchcalculation would not be material.
(2) Average balances on loans outstanding include all nonaccrual and restructured loans. See “III. Loan Portfolio.” The amortized portion of
net loan origination fees (costs) is included in interest income on loans, which accounts for an insignificant amount of an adjustment to
the yields.

Nonaccrual, Past Due and Restructured Loans
We generally discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when substantial doubt exists as to the fulland timely collection of either principal or interest, when principal or interest is contractually past due one monthor more with respect to loans within all classes of the Commercial segment, three months or more with respect toloans within the Card, MUAH, and Krungsri segments, and six months or more with respect to loans within the
Residential segment.
Generally, accruing loans that are modified in a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) remain as accruingloans subsequent to the modification, and nonaccrual loans remain as nonaccrual. However, if a nonaccrual loan
has been restructured as a TDR, the borrower is not delinquent under the restructured terms, and demonstrates
that its financial condition has improved, we may reclassify the loan to accrual status. This determination is
generally performed at least once a year through a detailed internal credit rating review process. Once a
nonaccrual loan is deemed to be a TDR, we will continue to designate the loan as a TDR even if the loan isreclassified to accrual status.

Notes:(1) Foreign accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more do not include ¥10,736 million, ¥13,068 million, ¥5,666 million,¥1,930 million and ¥1,514 million of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) covered loans held by MUAH which are subject
to the guidance on loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality at March 31, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017,
respectively.
(2) The sum of nonaccrual loans, restructured loans and accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more includes large groups ofsmaller-balance homogenous loans that have not been modified and are collectively evaluated for impairment, and accruing loans
contractually past due 90 days or more. However, these loans are excluded from the impaired loan balances of ¥1,725,150 million and¥1,715,850 million, at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively, disclosed in Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements included
elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Gross interest income which would have been accrued at the original terms on domestic nonaccrual andrestructured loans outstanding during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was approximately ¥45.0 billion, of
which ¥19.0 billion was included in the results of operations for the fiscal year. Gross interest income which
would have been accrued at the original terms on foreign nonaccrual and restructured loans outstanding for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 was approximately ¥28.5 billion, of which ¥13.0 billion was included in the
results of operations for the fiscal year.
A-10

Potential Problem Loans
We do not have potential problem loans where known information about possible credit problems ofborrowers causes management to have serious doubts as to the borrowers’ ability to comply with the present loan
repayment terms that are not disclosed as nonaccrual loans, restructured loans and accruing loans past due
90 days or more.
Foreign Loans Outstanding
We had no cross-border outstandings to borrowers domiciled in a foreign country which in total exceeded
0.75% of our consolidated total assets at March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017. Cross-border outstandings are defined,
for this purpose, as loans (including accrued interest), acceptances, interest-earning deposits with other banks,
other interest-earning investments and any other monetary assets denominated in Japanese yen or other non-local
currencies. Material local currency loans outstanding which are neither hedged nor funded by local currency
borrowings are included in cross-border outstandings.
Guarantees of outstandings to borrowers domiciled in other countries are considered to be outstandings ofthe guarantor. Loans made to, or deposits placed with, a branch of a foreign bank located outside the foreignbank’s home country are considered to be loans to, or deposits with, the foreign bank. Outstandings of a country
do not include principal or interest amounts which are supported by written, legally enforceable guarantees by
guarantors of other countries or the amounts of outstandings to the extent that they are secured by tangible, liquid
collateral held and realizable by BTMU, MUTB and their subsidiaries outside the country in which they operate.
In addition to credit risk, cross-border outstandings are subject to country risk that as a result of political or
economic conditions in a country, borrowers may be unable or unwilling to pay principal and interest according
to contractual terms. Other risks related to cross-border outstandings include the possibility of insufficientforeign exchange and restrictions on its availability.
In order to manage country risk, we establish various risk management measures internally. Among otherthings, we regularly monitor economic conditions and other factors globally and assess country risk in eachcountry where we have cross-border exposure. For the purposes of monitoring and controlling the amount ofcredit exposed to country risk, we set a country limit, the maximum amount of credit exposure for an individual
country, in consideration of the level of country risk and our ability to bear such potential risk. We also
determine our credit policy for each country in accordance with our country risk level and our business plan withregard to the country. The assessment of country risk, establishment of country limits, and determination ofcountry credit policies are subject to review and approval by our senior management and are updated
periodically.
Loan Concentrations
At March 31, 2017, there were no concentrations of loans to a single industry group of borrowers, as definedby the Bank of Japan industry segment loan classifications, which exceeded 10% of our consolidated total loans,
except for loans in a category disclosed in the table of loans outstanding above.
Credit Risk Management
We have a credit rating system, under which borrowers and transactions are graded on a worldwide basis.
We calculate probability of default by statistical means and manage our credit portfolio based on this credit
rating system. For a detailed description of this system and other elements of our risk management structure, see“Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk—Credit Risk
Management.”

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc.
(Kabushiki Kaisha Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group)
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc.
(Kabushiki Kaisha Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group) (“MUFG”) and subsidiaries (together, the “MUFG Group”)
as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income,equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2017 (all expressed in Japanese
Yen). These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the MUFG Group’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of MUFG and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, and the results of their operations and their
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board(United States), the MUFG Group’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2017, based on thecriteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated July 14, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion
on the MUFG Group’s internal control over financial reporting.

BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTINGPOLICIES

Description of Business
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (“MUFG”) is a holding company for The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi
UFJ, Ltd. (“BTMU”), Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation (“MUTB”), Mitsubishi UFJ Securities
Holdings Co., Ltd. (“MUSHD”), Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS Co., Ltd. (“Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS”), and othersubsidiaries. MUSHD is an intermediate holding company for Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities
Co., Ltd. (“MUMSS”). Through its subsidiaries and affiliated companies, MUFG engages in a broad range offinancial operations, including commercial banking, investment banking, trust banking and asset management
services, securities businesses, and credit card businesses, and it provides related services to individual andcorporate customers. See Note 30 for more information by business segment.
Basis of Financial Statements
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in Japanese yen, the currency of thecountry in which MUFG is incorporated and principally operates. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica (“U.S. GAAP”). In certain respects, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect
adjustments which are not included in the consolidated financial statements issued by MUFG and certain of its
subsidiaries in accordance with applicable statutory requirements and accounting practices in their respective
countries of incorporation. The major adjustments include those relating to (1) investment securities,(2) derivative financial instruments, (3) allowance for credit losses, (4) income taxes, (5) consolidation,(6) premises and equipment, (7) transfer of financial assets, (8) accrued severance indemnities and pension
liabilities, (9) goodwill and other intangible assets and (10) lease transactions.
Fiscal years of certain subsidiaries, which end on December 31, and MUFG’s fiscal year, which ends on
March 31, have been treated as coterminous. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, theeffect of recording intervening events for the three-month periods ended March 31 on MUFG’s proportionate
equity in net income of subsidiaries with fiscal years ended on December 31, would have resulted in an increaseof ¥6.15 billion, an increase of ¥1.34 billion, and an increase of ¥10.22 billion to net income attributable to
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, respectively. No intervening events occurred during each of the three-month
periods ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 which, if recorded, would have had material effects on
consolidated total assets, loans, total liabilities, deposits or total equity as of March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts ofrevenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material
estimates that are particularly susceptible to management judgment primarily relate to the allowance for credit
losses, the valuation of deferred tax assets, the valuation of financial instruments, the accounting for goodwill
and intangible assets, impairment of investment securities, the allowances for repayment of excess interest andaccrued severance indemnities and pension liabilities.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Significant accounting policies applied in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are
summarized below:
Consolidation—The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MUFG, its
subsidiaries and certain variable interest entities (“VIE”s) (together, the “MUFG Group”). In situations in which
the MUFG Group has a controlling financial interest in other entities, including certain VIEs, such entities areconsolidated and noncontrolling interests, if any, are recorded in Total equity. Intercompany transactions andbalances have been eliminated. Investments in affiliated companies (companies over which the MUFG Group has
the ability to exercise significant influence) are accounted for by the equity method of accounting and arereported in Other assets. The MUFG Group’s equity interest in the earnings of these equity investees and otherthan-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) are reported in Equity in earnings of equity method investees-net. The
MUFG Group recognizes an impairment loss on investments in equity method investees that is other-thantemporary. The MUFG Group determines whether loss on investments is other-than-temporary, throughconsideration of various factors, such as inability to recover the carrying amount of the investment, the inabilityof the investee to sustain an earnings capacity that would justify the carrying amount of the investment, thelength of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term
prospects of the investees, and the intent and ability to retain its investment in the investees for a period of time
sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the fair value. The MUFG Group also evaluates additional
factors, such as the condition and trend of the economic cycle, and trends in the general market.
The MUFG Group consolidates VIEs if it has the power to direct the activities of a VIE which mostsignificantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right toreceive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. To assess whether a VIE should be consolidated
or not, the MUFG Group considers all factors, such as the purpose and design of the VIE, contractual
arrangements, and the MUFG Group’s involvement in both the establishment of the VIE and day-to-day
activities of the VIE. The MUFG Group considers a right to make the most significant decisions affecting a VIE
to determine whether it is deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the VIE. Furthermore, the MUFG
Group considers its economic interests in the VIE, including investments in debt or equity instruments issued by
the VIE, liquidity and credit enhancement, and guarantees to determine whether such interests are potentiallysignificant to the VIE or not.
Assets that the MUFG Group holds in an agency, fiduciary or trust capacity are not assets of the MUFG
Group and, accordingly, are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Cash Flows—For the purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as thoseamounts included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets under the caption Cash and due from bankswith original maturities of 90 days or less. Cash flows from qualified hedging activities are classified in the same
category as the items being hedged.
Translation of Foreign Currency Financial Statements and Foreign Currency Transactions—Financial
statements of overseas entities are translated into Japanese yen using the respective fiscal year-end exchange
rates for assets and liabilities. Income and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange for therespective fiscal years.
Foreign currency translation gains and losses related to the financial statements of overseas entities of the
MUFG Group, net of related income tax effects, are credited or charged directly to Foreign currency translation
adjustments, a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (“Accumulated OCI”). Tax effects of
F-14

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
gains and losses on foreign currency translation of the financial statements of overseas entities are not recognized
unless it is apparent that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future.
Foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities are translated into the functional currencies of theindividual entities included in consolidation at the respective fiscal year-end foreign exchange rates. Foreign
currency-denominated income and expenses are translated using average rates of exchange for the respective
fiscal years. Gains and losses from such translation are included in Foreign exchange gains (losses)—net, as
appropriate.
Repurchase Agreements, Securities Lending and Other Secured Financing Transactions—Securities soldwith agreements to repurchase (“repurchase agreements”), securities purchased with agreements to resell (“resaleagreements”) and securities lending and borrowing transactions are accounted for as secured financing or lendingtransactions, if the transferor has not surrendered control over the securities. Repurchase agreements and resaleagreements are generally carried at the amounts at which the securities will be subsequently sold or repurchased,
and securities lending and borrowing transactions are generally carried at the amount of cash collateral advanced
or received. If they meet the relevant conditions for the surrender of control, they are accounted for as sales of
securities with related off-balance sheet forward repurchase commitments or purchases of securities with related
off-balance sheet forward resale commitments. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, there
were no such transactions accounted for as sales or purchases.
Collateral—For secured lending transactions, including resale agreements, securities borrowing
transactions, commercial lending and derivative transactions, the MUFG Group, as a secured party, generally has
the right to require the counterparties to provide collateral, including letters of credit, cash, securities and otherfinancial assets. For most secured lending transactions, the MUFG Group maintains strict levels of
collateralization governed by a daily mark-to-market analysis. Financial assets pledged as collateral are generally
negotiable financial instruments and are permitted to be sold or repledged by secured parties. If the
MUFG Group sells these financial assets received as collateral, it recognizes the proceeds from the sale and its
obligation to return the collateral. For secured borrowing transactions, principally repurchase agreements andsecurities lending transactions and derivative transactions, where the secured party has the right to sell or
repledge financial assets pledged as collateral, the MUFG Group separately discloses those financial assets
pledged as collateral in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Trading Account Securities—Securities and money market instruments held in anticipation of short-term
market movements and for resale to customers are included in Trading account assets, and short trading positionsof these instruments are included in Trading account liabilities. Trading positions are carried at fair value in theaccompanying consolidated balance sheets and recorded on a trade date basis. Changes in the fair value of
trading positions are recognized in Trading account profits (losses). The MUFG Group has elected the fair value
option for certain foreign securities. See Note 32 for a further discussion of fair value option.
Investment Securities—Debt securities for which the MUFG Group has both the ability and positive intent tohold to maturity are classified as Held-to-maturity securities and are carried at amortized cost. Debt securities
that the MUFG Group may not hold to maturity and marketable equity securities, other than those classified as
Trading account securities, are classified as Available-for-sale securities, and are carried at their fair values, withunrealized gains and losses reported on a net-of-tax basis within Accumulated OCI, net of taxes, which is acomponent of equity. Other investment securities include nonmarketable equity securities carried at theiracquisition cost and investment securities held by subsidiaries that are investment companies or brokers anddealers. Such securities held by those subsidiaries are subject to the specialized industry accounting principles forinvestment companies and brokers and dealers applicable for those subsidiaries. Securities of those subsidiaries
are carried at their fair values.
F-15

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
For marketable equity securities, an OTTI is recognized in earnings when a decline in fair value below thecost is deemed other-than-temporary. For debt securities, an OTTI is recognized in earnings for a security if the
MUFG Group has intent to sell such a debt security or if it is more likely than not the MUFG Group will be
required to sell such a debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If not, the credit component of an
OTTI is recognized in earnings, but the noncredit component is recognized in Accumulated OCI. In determining
other-than-temporary declines in fair value to be recognized as an impairment loss on investment securities, the
MUFG Group generally considers factors such as the ability and positive intent to hold the investments for aperiod of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in fair value, the financial condition of the issuer, theextent of decline in fair value, and the length of time that the decline in fair value below cost has existed. Interestand dividends on investment securities are reported in Interest income. Dividends are recognized when theshareholder right to receive the dividend is established. Gains and losses on disposition of investment securities
are computed using the average cost method and are recognized on the trade date.
Derivative Financial Instruments—The MUFG Group engages in derivative activities involving swaps,
forwards, futures, options, and other types of derivative contracts. Derivatives are used in trading activities togenerate trading revenues and fee income for its own account and to respond to customers’ financial needs.
Derivatives are also used to manage counterparty credit risk and market risk exposures to fluctuations in interestand foreign exchange rates, equity and commodity prices.
Derivatives entered into for trading purposes are carried at fair value and are reported as Trading accountassets or Trading account liabilities, as appropriate. The fair values of derivative contracts executed with thesame counterparty under legally enforceable master netting agreements are presented on a gross basis. Changes
in the fair value of such contracts are recognized currently in Foreign exchange gains (losses)—net with respect
to foreign exchange contracts and in Trading account profits (losses)—net with respect to interest rate contracts
and other types of contracts.
Embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contracts and meet the definition ofderivatives are separated from the host contracts and measured at fair value unless the contracts embedding thederivatives are measured at fair value in their entirety.
Derivatives are also used to manage exposures to fluctuations in interest and foreign exchange rates arisingfrom mismatches of asset and liability positions. Certain of those derivatives are designated as hedging
instruments and qualify for hedge accounting. The MUFG Group designates a derivative as a hedging instrument
at the inception of each such hedge relationship, and it documents, for such individual hedging relationships, therisk management objective and strategy, including the item being hedged, the specific risk being hedged and themethod used to assess the hedge effectiveness. In order for a hedging relationship to qualify for hedge
accounting, the changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments must be highly effective in achieving
offsetting changes in fair values or variable cash flows of the hedged items attributable to the risk being hedged.
Any ineffectiveness, which arises during the hedging relationship, is recognized in Non-interest income or
expense in the period in which it arises. All qualifying hedging derivatives are valued at fair value and includedin Other assets or Other liabilities, as appropriate. For cash flow hedges, the unrealized changes in fair value tothe extent effective are recognized in Accumulated OCI. Amounts realized on cash flow hedges related tovariable rate loans are recognized in Net interest income in the period when the cash flow from the hedged item
is realized. The fair value of cash flow hedges related to forecasted transactions, if any, is recognized in
Non-interest income or expense in the period when the forecasted transaction occurs. Any difference that arises
from gains or losses on hedging derivatives offsetting corresponding gains or losses on the hedged items, andgains and losses on derivatives attributable to the risks excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness arerecognized in Non-interest income or expense.

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Loans—Loans originated by the MUFG Group (“originated loans”) are carried at the principal amountoutstanding, adjusted for unearned income and deferred net nonrefundable loan fees and costs. Originated loans
held and intended for dispositions or sale in secondary markets are transferred to the held-for-sale classificationand carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value generally on an individual loan basis. Loan origination
fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized over the contractual life of the loan as an
adjustment to yield using a method that approximates the interest method. Interest income on loans that are not
impaired is accrued and credited to interest income as it is earned. Unearned income and discounts or premiums
on purchased loans are deferred and recognized over the remaining contractual terms of the loans using a methodthat approximates the interest method when such purchased loans are outside the scope of the guidance on loans
and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality as described below.
The MUFG Group classifies its loan portfolio into the following portfolio segments—Commercial,
Residential, Card, MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation (“MUAH”), and Bank of Ayudhya Public Company
Limited (“Krungsri”) based on the grouping used by the MUFG Group to determine the allowance for credit
losses. The MUFG Group further classifies the Commercial segment into classes based on initial measurement
attributes, risk characteristics, and its method of monitoring and assessing credit risk.
Originated loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that
the MUFG Group will be unable to collect all the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due
according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Past due status is determined based on the contractual
terms of the loan and the actual number of days since the last payment date, and is considered in determining
impairment. Originated loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are
not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on
a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower,
including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amountof the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is generally evaluated on a loan-by-loanbasis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, theloan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Originated loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when substantial doubt exists as to the full andtimely collection of either principal or interest, specifically when principal or interest is contractually past due
one month or more with respect to loans within all classes of the Commercial segment, three months or morewith respect to loans within the Card, MUAH, and Krungsri segments, and six months or more with respect toloans within the Residential segment. A nonaccrual loan may be restored to an accrual status when interest andprincipal payments become current and management expects that the borrower will make future contractual
payments as scheduled. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, interest accrued but not received is generally
reversed against interest income. Cash receipts on nonaccrual loans, for which the ultimate collectibility ofprincipal is uncertain, are applied as principal reductions; otherwise, such collections are credited to income.
The MUFG Group modifies certain loans in conjunction with its loss-mitigation activities. Through thesemodifications, concessions are granted to a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty, generally in orderto minimize economic loss, to avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral, and to ultimately maximize
payments received from the borrower. The concessions granted vary by portfolio segment, by program, and byborrower-specific characteristics, and may include interest rate reductions, term extensions, payment deferrals,
and partial principal forgiveness. Loan modifications that represent concessions made to borrowers who areexperiencing financial difficulties are identified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”).
Generally, accruing loans that are modified in a TDR remain as accruing loans subsequent to themodification, and nonaccrual loans remain as nonaccrual. However, if a nonaccrual loan has been modified as a
F-17

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
TDR, the borrower is not delinquent under the modified terms, and demonstrates that its financial condition has
improved, the MUFG Group may reclassify the loan to accrual status. This determination is generally performedat least once a year through a detailed internal credit rating review process. Once a nonaccrual loan is deemed to
be a TDR, the MUFG Group will continue to designate the loan as a TDR even if the loan is reclassified to
accrual status.
A loan that has been modified into a TDR is considered to be impaired until it matures, is repaid, or isotherwise liquidated, regardless of whether the borrower performs under the modified terms. Because loans
modified in TDRs are considered to be impaired, these loans are measured for impairment using the MUFG
Group’s established asset-specific allowance methodology, which considers the expected default rates for themodified loans. See “Allowance for Credit Losses” for a discussion for each portfolio segment.
In accordance with the guidance on loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality,
impaired loans acquired for which it is probable that the MUFG Group will be unable to collect all contractual
receivables are initially recorded at the present value of amounts expected to be received. For these impairedloans, the related valuation allowances are not carried over or created initially. Accretable yield is limited to theexcess of the investor’s estimate of undiscounted cash flows over the investor’s initial investment in the loan.
Subsequent increases in cash flows expected to be collected are recognized prospectively through adjustment of
the loan’s yield over its remaining life after reduction of any remaining allowance for credit losses for the loanestablished after its acquisition, if any, while any decrease in such cash flows below those initially expected atacquisition plus additional cash flows expected to be collected arising from changes in estimate after acquisition
is recognized as an impairment.
Loan Securitization—The MUFG Group securitizes and services commercial, industrial, and residential
loans in the normal course of business. The MUFG Group accounts for a transfer of loans in a securitizationtransaction as a sale if it meets relevant conditions for the surrender of control. Otherwise, the transfer isaccounted for as a collateralized borrowing transaction. When a securitization is accounted for as a sale, theproceeds from a sale of financial assets consist of the cash and any other assets obtained, including beneficial
interests and separately recognized servicing assets, in the transfer less any liabilities incurred, including
separately recognized servicing liabilities. All proceeds and reductions of proceeds from a sale shall be initiallymeasured at fair value.
Allowance for Credit Losses—The MUFG Group maintains an allowance for credit losses to absorb
probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Actual credit losses (amounts deemed uncollectible, in whole or inpart), net of recoveries, are generally determined based on detailed loan reviews and a credit assessment bymanagement at each balance sheet date, and are deducted from the allowance for credit losses as net charge-offs.
The MUFG Group generally applies its charge-off policy to all loans in its portfolio regardless of the type ofborrower. Management believes that the provision for credit losses is adequate and the allowance is at theappropriate amount to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. During the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2017, the MUFG Group did not make any significant changes to the methodologies or policies used todetermine its allowance for credit losses.
Key elements relating to the policies and discipline used in determining the allowance for credit losses are
credit classification and the related borrower categorization process. The categorization is based on conditions
that may affect the ability of borrowers to service their debt, taking into consideration current financial
information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, analyses of relevant
industry segments or existing economic conditions. In determining the appropriate level of the allowance, the
MUFG Group evaluates the probable loss by collateral value, historical loss experience, probability of insolvency
F-18

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
and category of loan based on its type and characteristics. The MUFG Group calculates the allowance for credit
losses over the loss emergence period that is a time between a loss occurring event and the subsequentconfirmation of a loss. The MUFG Group updates these conditions and probable loss on a regular basis and upon
the occurrence of unexpected change in the economic environment.
The methodologies used to estimate the allowance and the charge-off policy for each portfolio segment are
as follows:
Commercial segment
In the Commercial segment, the methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance consists ofseveral key elements, which include the allocated allowance for loans individually evaluated for impairment, theformula allowance, and the allocated allowance for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans.
The allocated allowance for loans individually evaluated for impairment represents the impairment
allowance determined in accordance with the guidance on accounting by creditors for the impairment of a loan.
The factors considered by management in determining impairment are the internal credit rating assigned to eachborrower which represents the borrower’s creditworthiness determined based on payment status, the number ofdelinquencies, and the probability of collecting principal and interest payments when due. The impairment of aloan is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective
interest rate, or the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateraldependent.
The formula allowance is applied to loans that are categorized as Normal or Close Watch, excluding loans
identified as a TDR, based on the internal credit rating and historical loss factors which are based on the loss
experience. See Note 4 for the information on loans to borrowers categorized based on the internal borrower
rating. Estimated losses inherent in the loans at the balance sheet date are calculated by multiplying the default
ratio by the nonrecoverable ratio (determined as a complement of the recovery ratio). The default ratio is
determined by each internal credit rating, taking into account the historical number of defaults of borrowers
within each internal credit rating divided by the total number of borrowers. The recovery ratio is mainly
determined by the historical experience of collections against loans in default. The default ratio, the recovery
ratio and other indicators are continually reviewed to determine the appropriate level of the allowance. Because
the evaluation of inherent loss for these loans involves an uncertainty, subjectivity and judgment, the estimationof the formula allowance is back-tested by comparing the allowance with the actual results subsequent to thebalance sheet date. The results of such back-testing are evaluated by management to determine whether themanner and level of the formula allowance needs to be changed in subsequent years.
The allocated allowance for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans is established through aprocess that begins with estimates of probable losses inherent in the portfolio. These estimates are based uponvarious analyses, including historical delinquency and historical loss experience.
Loans that have been modified into a TDR are treated as impaired loans. For nonaccrual TDRs, theallowance for credit losses is provided for these loans using the discounted cash flow method, or based on the fairvalue of the collateral. For TDRs accounted for as accruing loans, the allowance for credit losses is determinedby discounting the estimated future cash flows using the effective interest rate of the loans prior to modification.
In relation to loans categorized as Legally/Virtually Bankrupt, the carrying amount of loans less estimatedvalue of the collateral and guaranteed amount is generally considered uncollectible, and is charged off.
F-19

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Residential segment
In the Residential segment, the loans are comprised of smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are pooledby their internal credit ratings-based on the number of delinquencies. The loans in this segment are generally
secured by collateral. Collateral values are based on internal valuation sources, and the allowance is determined
for unsecured amounts. The allowance for the nondelinquent group of loans is determined based on historicalloss experience. For delinquent groups of loans, the MUFG Group determines the allowance based on theprobability of insolvency by the number of actual delinquencies and historical loss experience.
Loans that have been modified into a TDR are treated as impaired loans. For nonaccrual TDRs, theallowance for credit losses is provided for these loans using the discounted cash flow method, or based on the fairvalue of the collateral. For TDRs accounted for as accruing loans, the allowance for credit losses is determinedby discounting the estimated future cash flows using the effective interest rate of the loans prior to modification.
In relation to loans that are in past due status over a certain period of time and deemed uncollectible, thecarrying amount of loans less estimated value of the collateral and guaranteed amount is generally considered
uncollectible and charged off.
Card segment
In the Card segment, the loans are smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are pooled by their internal
credit rating based on the number of delinquencies. The allowance for loans in this segment is generally
determined based on the probability of insolvency by the number of actual delinquencies and historical loss
experience. For calculating the allocated allowance for loans specifically identified for evaluation, impaired loans
are aggregated for the purpose of measuring impairment using historical loss factors.
Loans that have been modified into a TDR are treated as impaired loans, and the allowance for credit losses
is determined using the discounted cash flow method whereby the estimated future cash flows are discounted
using the effective interest rate of the loans prior to modification.
In relation to loans that are in past due status over a certain period of time and deemed uncollectible, theamount of loans is generally fully charged off.
MUAH segment
In the MUAH segment, the methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance consists ofseveral key elements, which include the allocated allowance for loans individually evaluated for impairment, theformula allowance, the allocated allowance for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, and theunallocated allowance.
The allocated allowance for loans individually evaluated for impairment is established for loans whenmanagement determines that the MUFG Group will be unable to collect all amounts due according to thecontractual terms of the loan agreement, including interest payments. Impaired loans are carried at the lower ofthe recorded investment in the loan, the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s
effective rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateraldependent.
The formula allowance is calculated by applying historical loss factors to outstanding loans. Historical loss
factors are based on the historical loss experience and may be adjusted for significant factors that, inmanagement’s judgment, affect the collectibility of the portfolio as of the balance sheet date.
F-20

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
The allocated allowance for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans is established for consumer
loans as well as for smaller balance commercial loans. These loans are managed on a pool basis, and loss factors
are based on expected net charge-off ranges.
The unallocated allowance represents an estimate of additional losses inherent in the loan portfolio and iscomposed of attribution factors, which are based upon management’s evaluation of various conditions that are
not directly measured in the determination of the allocated allowance. The conditions used for consideration of
the unallocated allowance at each balance sheet date include factors, such as existing general economic andbusiness conditions affecting the key lending areas and products of the MUFG Group, credit quality trends andrisk identification, collateral values, loan volumes, underwriting standards and concentrations, specific industry
conditions, recent loss experience and the duration of the current business cycle. The MUFG Group reviews
these conditions and has an internal discussion with senior credit officers on a quarterly basis.
Loans that have been modified into a TDR are treated as impaired loans. For nonaccrual TDRs, theallowance for credit losses is provided for these loans using the discounted cash flow method, or based on the fairvalue of the collateral. For TDRs accounted for as accruing loans, the allowance for credit losses is determinedby using the discounted cash flow method whereby the estimated future cash flows are discounted using theeffective interest rate of the loans prior to modification.
Commercial loans are generally considered uncollectible based on an evaluation of the financial conditionof a borrower as well as the value of any collateral and, when considered to be uncollectible, loans are charged
off in whole or in part. Consumer loans are generally considered uncollectible based on past due status and thevalue of any collateral and, when considered to be uncollectible, loans are charged off in whole or in part.
Krungsri segment
In the Krungsri segment, the methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance consists ofseveral key elements, which include the allocated allowance for loans individually evaluated for impairment, theformula allowance, and the allocated allowance for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans.
The allocated allowance for loans individually evaluated for impairment is established for loans whenmanagement determines that the MUFG Group will be unable to collect all amounts due according to thecontractual terms of the loan agreement, including interest payments. Impaired loans are carried at the lower ofthe recorded investment in the loan, the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s
effective rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateraldependent.
The formula allowance is calculated by applying historical loss factors to outstanding loans. Historical loss
factors are based on the historical loss experience and may be adjusted for significant factors that, inmanagement’s judgment, affect the collectibility of the portfolio as of the balance sheet date.
The allocated allowance for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans is established for smaller
balance loans such as housing loans, credit card loans, and personal loans. These loans are managed on a poolbasis, and loss factors are based on expected net charge-off ranges.
Loans that have been modified into a TDR are treated as impaired loans. For nonaccrual TDRs, theallowance for credit losses is provided for these loans using the discounted cash flow method, or based on the fairvalue of the collateral. For TDRs accounted for as accruing loans, the allowance for credit losses is determinedby using the discounted cash flow method whereby the estimated future cash flows are discounted using theeffective interest rate of the loans prior to modification.

Loans to customers are charged off when they are determined to be uncollectible considering the financial
condition of a borrower.
Allowance for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Instruments—The MUFG Group maintains an allowance for credit
losses on off-balance sheet credit instruments, including commitments to extend credit, guarantees, standby
letters of credit and other financial instruments. The allowance is recorded as a liability in Other liabilities. The
MUFG Group adopts the same methodology used in determining the allowance for credit losses on loans.
Potential credit losses related to derivatives are considered in the fair value of the derivatives.
Premises and Equipment—Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation andamortization. Depreciation is charged to operations over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the terms of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives of
the improvements, whichever is shorter. MUFG, BTMU and MUTB apply the declining-balance method in
depreciating their premises and equipment, while other subsidiaries mainly apply the straight-line method, at
rates principally based on the following estimated useful lives:

Maintenance, repairs and minor improvements are charged to operations as incurred. Major improvements
are capitalized. Net gains or losses on dispositions of premises and equipment are included in Other non-interest
income or expense, as appropriate.
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate thatthe carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset to be held and used ismeasured by a comparison of the carrying amount to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated
by the asset. If an asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amountby which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value. For purposes of recognition and measurementof an impairment loss, a long-lived asset or assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest levelwith independent and identifiable cash flows. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of thecarrying amount or fair value less estimated cost to sell.
Asset retirement obligations related to restoration of certain leased properties upon lease termination arerecorded in Other liabilities with a corresponding increase in leasehold improvements. The amounts represent thepresent value of expected future cash flows associated with returning such leased properties to their original
condition. The difference between the gross and present value of expected future cash flows is accreted over thelife of the related leases as a non-interest expense.
Goodwill—The MUFG Group recognizes goodwill, as of the acquisition date, measured as the excess of thepurchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill related to investments in equity method
investees is included in Other assets as a part of the carrying amount of investments in equity method investees.
Goodwill arising from a business combination is not amortized but is tested at least annually for
impairment. Goodwill is recorded at a designated reporting unit level for the purpose of assessing impairment.
A reporting unit is an operating segment, or an identified business unit one level below an operating segment. An
impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value.

Intangible assets—Intangible assets consist of software, core deposit intangibles, customer relationships,
trade names and other intangible assets. These are amortized over their estimated useful lives unless they haveindefinite useful lives. Amortization of intangible assets is computed in a manner that best reflects the economic
benefits of the intangible assets as follows:

Intangible assets having indefinite useful lives are not amortized but are subject to annual impairment tests.
An impairment exists if the carrying value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value. For otherintangible assets subject to amortization, an impairment is recognized if the carrying amount is not recoverable
and the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset.
The MUFG Group capitalizes certain costs associated with the acquisition or development of internal-use
software. Costs subject to capitalization are salaries and employee benefits for employees who are directly
associated with and who devote time to the internal-use computer software project, to the extent of time spent
directly on the project. Once the software is ready for its intended use, the MUFG Group begins to amortize
capitalized costs on a straight-line basis.
Accrued Severance and Pension Liabilities—The MUFG Group has defined benefit pension plans and otherpostretirement benefit plans, including severance indemnities plans (“SIPs”). The liabilities related to these plans
are computed and recognized based on actuarial computations. Net actuarial gains and losses that arise fromdifferences between actual experience and assumptions are generally amortized over the average remaining
service period of participating employees if it exceeds the corridor, which is defined as the greater of 10% of plan
assets or the projected benefit obligation. Under the guidance related to employers’ accounting for defined
benefit pension and other postretirement plans, the MUFG Group recognizes a net liability or asset to report thefunded status of its defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans in the accompanying consolidatedbalance sheets and mainly recognizes changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension and otherpostretirement plans in the year in which the changes occur in Accumulated OCI. The costs of the plans, basedon actuarial computations of current and future employee benefits, are charged to Salaries and employee benefits.
The MUFG Group measures plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets.
Long-Term Debt—Premiums, discounts and issuance costs of long-term debt are amortized based on themethod that approximates the interest method over the term of the long-term debt.
Obligations under Guarantees—The MUFG Group provides customers with a variety of guarantees andsimilar arrangements, including standby letters of credit, financial and performance guarantees, credit protection,and liquidity facilities. The MUFG Group recognizes guarantee fee income over the guarantee period based on
the contractual terms of the guarantee contracts. It is the MUFG Group’s business practice to receive a guarantee
fee at the inception of the guarantee, which approximates market value of the guarantee and is initially recorded
as a liability, which is then recognized as guarantee fee income over the guarantee period.
Allowance for Repayment of Excess Interest—The MUFG Group maintains an allowance for repayment ofexcess interest based on an analysis of past experience of reimbursement of excess interest, borrowers’ profile,recent trend of borrowers’ claims for reimbursement, and management’s future forecasts. The allowance isrecorded as a liability in Other liabilities.
F-23

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Fees and Commissions—Revenue recognition of major components of fees and commissions is as follows:‰

Fees and commissions on deposits, fees and commissions on remittances and transfers, fees andcommissions on foreign trading business, fees and commissions on security-related services, fees andcommissions on administration and management service for investment funds, insurance commissions,
fees and commissions on real estate business and fees and commissions from other services are
generally recognized as revenue when the related services are performed or recognized over the periodthat the service is provided.

‰

Fees from trade-related financing services are recognized over the period of the financing.

‰

Trust fees are recognized on an accrual basis, generally based on the volume of trust assets undermanagement and/or the operating performance for the accounting period of each trust account. With
respect to the trust accounts with guarantee of trust principal, trust fees are determined based on the
profits earned by individual trust accounts during the trust accounting period, less deductions, including
provision for reserve, impairment for individual investments and dividends paid to beneficiary
certificate holders. The trust fees for these trust accounts are accrued based on the amounts expected tobe earned during the accounting period of each trust account.

‰

Annual fees and royalty and other service charges related to the credit card business are recorded on astraight-line basis as services are provided.

‰Interchange income from the credit card business is recognized as billed.

‰

Guarantee fees are generally recognized over the contractual periods of the respective guarantees.
Amounts initially recorded as a liability corresponding to the obligations at fair value are generally
recognized as revenue over the terms of the guarantees as the MUFG Group is deemed to be released
from the risk under guarantees.

Income Taxes—The MUFG Group accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which
requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities for the expected future tax consequencesof events that have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Under this method,deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial
statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which thedifferences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and deferred tax
liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The MUFG Group records net deferred tax assets to the extent these assets will more likely than not berealized. In making such determination, all available positive and negative evidence is considered, including
future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning
strategies and recent financial operations. In the event the MUFG Group were to determine that it would be able
to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the MUFG Group would makean adjustment to the valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.
Uncertain tax positions are recorded on the basis of a two-step process whereby (1) it is determined whether
it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on the basis of its technical merits, and (2) for
those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the MUFG Group recognizes thelargest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related
tax authority. The MUFG Group recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within
income tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties are included within Other liabilities.
Free Distributions of Common Shares—As permitted by the Companies Act of Japan (the “CompaniesAct”), Japanese companies, upon approval by the Board of Directors, may make a free distribution of shares, in
F-24

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
the form of a “stock split” as defined, to shareholders. In accordance with generally accepted accounting practicein Japan, such distribution does not give rise to any change in capital stock or capital surplus accounts. Commonshares distributed are recorded as shares issued on the distribution date. See Note 18 for further information.
Earnings per Common Share—Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) excludes dilutive effects of potential
common shares and is computed by dividing earnings applicable to common stock shareholders by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the period, while diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive
potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. See Note 23 for the computation of basic anddiluted EPS.
Treasury Stock—The MUFG Group presents its treasury stock, including shares of MUFG owned by its
subsidiaries and affiliated companies, as a reduction of equity on the accompanying consolidated balance sheetsat cost and accounts for treasury stock transactions under an average cost method. Gains (losses) on sales oftreasury stock are charged to capital surplus and unappropriated retained earnings.
Comprehensive Income—Comprehensive income includes net income before attribution to noncontrollinginterests and other comprehensive income (“OCI”). All changes in unrealized gains and losses on investment
securities, unrealized gains and losses on derivatives qualifying for cash flow hedges, defined benefit plans andforeign currency translation adjustments constitute OCI and are presented, with related income tax effects, in theaccompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income. OCI also includes changes in the instrumentspecific credit risk on financial liabilities (“debt valuation adjustments” or “DVA”) accounted for under the fairvalue option of a foreign affiliated company. See Note 14 for information about the DVA.
Stock-Based Compensation—MUFG and certain of its subsidiaries have a stock compensation-type stock
option plan (“Stock Option Plan”) for directors (excluding outside directors and directors serving as audit
committee members), corporate executive officers, executive officers and senior fellows (collectively,“officers”). Compensation costs under the Stock Option Plan are recognized based on the grant date fair value ofthe stock option (“Stock Acquisition Rights”) over the period during officers are required to provide service inaccordance with the terms of the plan. MUFG and certain of its subsidiaries also have performance-based stockcompensation plan (“the Board Incentive Plan”). The awards granted under the Board Incentive Plan areclassified as either liability for the part of award which are provided to officers in cash or equity for the part ofaward which are provided to officers in the common shares of MUFG. Compensation costs are recognized over
the requisite service period for the entire awards. For awards classified as liability, compensation costs aremeasured based on the fair value calculated by the quoted price of common shares of MUFG at the date of fiscal
year-end and remeasured at the end of each reporting period. Changes in quoted prices of common shares of
MUFG between the date of grant and the settlement of awards are recognized in the period which the changes
occur. For awards classified as equity, compensation costs are measured based on the grant date fair value by thequoted price of the common shares of MUFG for employees or the fair value as of earlier of the date theperformance commitment is reached or the date of completion of officers’ performance for nonemployees. See
Note 33 for further discussion of stock-based compensation plans.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications and format changes have been made to the consolidated financial statements for the
fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and 2016 to conform to the presentation for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2017. These reclassifications and format changes include the presentation of “Provision (credit) for off-balance
sheet credit instruments” as a separate line item which had previously been presented as “Other non-interest
expenses” in the consolidated statements of income for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and 2016. These
reclassifications and format changes did not result in a change to previously reported financial positions, resultsof operations and cash flows.

Accounting Changes
Measuring the Financial Assets and the Financial Liabilities of a Consolidated Collateralized Financing
Entity—In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance that clarifies
the measurement of the financial assets and financial liabilities of a consolidated collateralized financing entity.
A reporting entity that consolidates a collateralized financing entity within the scope of this guidance may electto measure the financial assets and the financial liabilities of that collateralized financing entity using either themeasurement alternative included in this guidance or existing guidance on fair value measurement. When areporting entity elects the measurement alternative included in this guidance for a collateralized financing entity,
the reporting entity should measure both the financial assets and the financial liabilities of that collateralized
financing entity in its consolidated financial statements using the more observable of the fair value of thefinancial assets and the fair value of the financial liabilities. This guidance is effective for annual periods, andinterim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption of this guidanceis permitted as of the beginning of an annual period. The MUFG Group adopted this guidance on April 1, 2016,
and there was no material impact on its financial position and results of operations.
Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is
More Akin to Debt or to Equity—In November 2014, the FASB issued new guidance which clarifies that anentity should consider all relevant terms and features including the embedded derivative feature being evaluatedfor bifurcation when evaluating the nature of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in theform of a share, and no single term or feature would necessarily determine the economic characteristics and risksof the host contract. The guidance also clarifies that, in evaluating the nature of a host contract, an entity should
assess the substance of the relevant terms and features (that is, the relative strength of the debt-like or equity-liketerms and features given the facts and circumstances) when considering how to weight those terms and features.
This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after
December 15, 2015. The MUFG Group adopted this guidance on April 1, 2016, and there was no material impact
on its financial position and results of operations.
Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis—In February 2015, the FASB issued new guidance whichamends the consolidation analysis under the current consolidation guidance. The amendments change the
VIE analysis for limited partnerships and similar legal entities, the criteria for evaluating whether fees paid to adecision maker or a service provider are a variable interest, the effect of fee arrangements and related parties on
the primary beneficiary determination, and rescind the indefinite deferral provision that affects the consolidation
evaluation for certain investment funds. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods withinthose fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this new
accounting guidance on April 1, 2016 resulted in the consolidation and deconsolidation of certain investment
funds. The net increase in the MUFG Group’s consolidated assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests were¥628 billion, ¥32 billion and ¥596 billion, respectively, as of April 1, 2016. See Note 26 for further information.
Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs—In April 2015, the FASB issued new guidance whichsimplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt
liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability,
consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affectedby the amendments. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. In August 2015, the
FASB issued further guidance which permits an entity to defer and present debt issuance costs related to aline-of-credit arrangement as an asset and subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over theterm of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on theline-of-credit arrangement. The MUFG Group adopted all of the guidance above including retrospective application
on April 1, 2016, and there was no material impact on its financial position and results of operations.
F-26

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement—In April 2015, the FASB issued
new guidance which simplifies the accounting for cloud computing arrangements by requiring that, if a cloudcomputing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license
element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing
arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service
contract. This guidance does not change customer’s accounting for service contracts. This guidance is effective
for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015.
Early adoption of this guidance is permitted. The MUFG Group adopted this guidance on April 1, 2016, andthere was no material impact on its financial position and results of operations.
Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its
Equivalent)—In May 2015, the FASB issued new guidance which removes the requirement to categorize within
the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per sharepractical expedient. Instead, a reporting entity is required to provide the amount measured using that practical
expedient to permit reconciliation of the fair value of investments included in the fair value hierarchy to the line
items presented in the balance sheet. The amendments also remove the requirement to make certain disclosures
for all investments that are eligible to be measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical
expedient. Rather, those disclosures are limited to investments for which the entity has elected to measure the fairvalue using that practical expedient. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and required to be applied retrospectively. Early applicationis permitted. The MUFG Group adopted the above guidance including retrospective application on April 1,
2016. This guidance affected the MUFG Group’s fair value hierarchy disclosures, and did not affect its financial
position and results of operations. See Notes 13 and 32 for further information.
Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments—In September 2015, the FASB issued
new guidance which requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified
during the measurement period, including the related prior period impact on depreciation, amortization, and otherincome statement items, in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. This guidance
also requires an entity to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes the
portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous
reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date.
This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods withinthose fiscal years. Early application is permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. The MUFG
Group adopted this guidance on April 1, 2016, and there was no material impact on its financial position andresults of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Revenue from Contracts with Customers—In May 2014, the FASB issued new guidance which supersedes
the current revenue recognition requirements, including most industry-specific guidance. The core principle of
the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services tocustomers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange forthose goods or services. The guidance also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing anduncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including significant judgments andchanges in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This guidanceis effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within thatreporting period. In August 2015, the FASB issued new guidance which defers the effective date of the newrevenue standard by one year. Early adoption is permitted, but not before the original effective date. In
March 2016, the FASB issued further guidance related to the principal-versus-agent assessment which requires
F-27

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
an entity to determine the nature of the promise to the customer by identifying each specified good or service tobe provided and assessing whether an entity controls each specified good or service before that good or service istransferred to the customer. In addition, in April 2016, the FASB issued guidance clarifying certain aspects ofidentification of promised goods or services and provides implementation guidance on licensing of intellectual
property. Furthermore, in May 2016, the FASB issued guidance which amends the guidance on assessing
collectibility, presentation of sales taxes, noncash consideration, and contract modifications and completed
contracts at transition, and on disclosure around transition. In December 2016, the FASB issued additional
guidance which amends the new revenue standard to clarify certain aspects, including the scope and disclosure
requirements. The effective date and early adoption of this guidance will be the same as the effective date andearly adoption of the new revenue standard, which is not yet effective. The MUFG Group will adopt the guidanceon April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. Since the guidance does not apply to revenue relating
to financial instruments, including trading account assets, investment securities, and loans that are accounted forin accordance with other applicable guidance, the MUFG Group does not expect the new revenue guidance tohave a material impact on the elements of its results of operations most closely associated with financial
instruments, including net trading account profits, net investment securities gains, and interest income. Based on
the preliminary analysis, the MUFG Group has not yet identified any material changes in the timing or amount ofrevenue recognition related to other revenue streams within the scope. The MUFG Group will continue toevaluate the effect that this guidance will have on its financial statements and related disclosures. The MUFG
Group’s implementation efforts include the identification of revenue within the scope of the new revenue
recognition guidance, as well as the evaluation of revenue contracts.
Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—In January 2016, the FASB
issued new guidance which requires equity investments, except those accounted for under the equity method of
accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee, to be measured at fair value with changes in fairvalue recognized in net income. However, for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fairvalues, the fair value may be measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting fromobservable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, andthe impairment assessment is simplified by performing a qualitative assessment to identify impairments. For
financial liabilities which were elected to measure at fair value in accordance with the fair value option, thisguidance also requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the position of the changes
in the fair value of financial liabilities resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk. In addition,
this guidance eliminates the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate thefair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost, and clarifies, for disclosure purposes, therequirement for the use of an exit price notion in the determination of the fair value of financial instruments
measured at amortized cost. This guidance also clarifies that an entity must evaluate the need for a valuation
allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s otherdeferred tax assets. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017,
including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted except for the amendments
related to the accounting for financial liabilities under the fair value option. The MUFG Group is currently
evaluating what effect this guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.
Leases—In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which requires that lessees recognize in thestatement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset
representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The accounting applied by lessors is largely
unchanged, but the accounting model for leveraged leases is not retained for leases that commence after theeffective date of this guidance. This guidance also requires entities to provide qualitative and quantitative
disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early
application is permitted. The MUFG Group is currently evaluating what effect this guidance will have on its
F-28

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
financial position and results of operations. The MUFG Group expects a gross-up on its consolidated balance
sheet as a result of the adoption of this guidance, recognizing lease liabilities and right-of-use assets, though theextent of such gross-up is under evaluation. The MUFG Group’ implementation efforts include reviewing its
existing lease contracts and service contracts that may include embedded leases.
Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products—In March 2016, the FASB issued new
guidance which clarifies that liabilities related to the sale of certain prepaid stored-value products are financial
liabilities. The guidance also provides a narrow scope exception to the guidance on extinguishments of liabilities
to require that breakage for those liabilities be accounted for consistent with the breakage model required by theguidance on revenue from contracts with customers for non-financial liabilities. This guidance is effective forfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early
application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The MUFG Group is currently evaluating what
effect this guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.
Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships—In March 2016, the
FASB issued new guidance which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has
been designated as the hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedging
relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. This guidance is effective forfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early
adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The MUFG Group does not expect that the
adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations.
Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments—In March 2016, the FASB issued new guidance
which clarifies the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate thepayment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. An entity performing
the assessment under this guidance is required to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordancewith the four-step decision sequence, and does not have to assess whether the event that triggers the ability to
exercise a call (put) option is related to interest rates or credit risks. This guidance is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption ispermitted, including adoption in an interim period. The MUFG Group is currently evaluating what effect thisguidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.
Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting—In March 2016, the FASB issued new
guidance which eliminates the requirement for retrospective application of the equity method and instead
requires investors to apply the equity method prospectively from the date on which significant influence isobtained. This guidance also requires the equity method investor to add the cost of acquiring the additional
interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest, and recognize throughearnings the unrealized holding gain or loss of an available-for-sale equity security at the date on which that
equity security becomes qualified for use of the equity method, if applicable. This guidance is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application ispermitted. The MUFG Group does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its
financial position and results of operations.
Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting—In March 2016, the FASB issued new
guidance which amends several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including theincome tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on thestatement of cash flows. Under this guidance, an entity can make an entity-wide accounting policy election toeither estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures when they occur. This
guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those
F-29

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period. The MUFG Group is currently
evaluating what effect this guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments—In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance
which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects
expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information toestimate credit losses. Under this guidance, the measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant
information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable andsupportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount of the financial asset (or a group offinancial assets) measured at amortized cost basis. For available-for-sale debt securities, a credit loss is recorded
through an allowance for credit losses and the amount of the allowance is limited to the amount by which fairvalue is below amortized cost. For purchased financial assets with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit
deterioration since origination that are measured at amortized cost basis, the initial allowance for credit losses is
added to the purchase price rather than being reported as a credit loss expense, only subsequent changes in theallowance are recorded as a credit loss expense, and interest income is recognized based on the effective interest
rate, excluding the discount embedded in the purchase price that is attributable to the acquirer’s assessment ofcredit losses at acquisition. This guidance also expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s
assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance, and requires the entity to disclose the amortizedcost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination.
This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods withinthose fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, includinginterim periods within those fiscal years. The MUFG Group is currently evaluating what effect all of theguidance above will have on its financial position and results of operations. The MUFG Group’ implementation
efforts include identifying key interpretive issues and assessing existing credit forecasting models and processes
against this guidance to determine what modifications may be required.
Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments—In August 2016, the FASB issued new
guidance which provides specific guidance on eight cash flow classification issues to reduce diversity in practice.
This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods withinthose fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The MUFG Group is currently evaluating what effect thisguidance will have on its statement of cash flows.
Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory—In October 2016, the FASB issued new guidance
which simplifies the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other thaninventory. Under current U.S. GAAP, the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity
asset transfer is prohibited until the asset has been sold to an outside party. This guidance eliminates thisexception for all intra-entity sales of assets other than inventory. This guidance is effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods.
Early adoption is permitted. The MUFG Group does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have amaterial impact on its financial position and results of operations.
Restricted Cash—In November 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which requires that a statement ofcash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally
described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash andrestricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the
beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This guidance also
requires an entity to disclose how the statement of cash flows reconciles to the balance sheet when cash, cash
equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents are presented in
more than one line item within the balance sheet, and information about the nature of the restrictions on its cash,
F-30

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This guidanceis effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal
years. Early adoption is permitted. The MUFG Group is currently evaluating what effect this guidance will haveon its statement of cash flows and related disclosures.
Clarifying the Definition of a Business—In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which clarifies thedefinition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether
transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This guidance requiresthat when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single
identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, an integrated set of assets and activities is not abusiness. This guidance also requires that to be considered a business, an integrated set of assets and activities
must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability
to create outputs, provides a framework to evaluate whether both an input and a substantive process are present,
and removes the current requirement to assess if a market participant could replace any missing elements.
Furthermore, this guidance narrows the definition of outputs so that the term is consistent with how outputs aredescribed in the new revenue standard. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. Early application is permitted fortransactions that occur in a period for which financial statements have not been issued. The MUFG Group is
currently evaluating what effect the guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.
Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment—In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance whichsimplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill
impairment test. Under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedure to determine the fair value at the impairment
testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure thatwould be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a businesscombination. This guidance eliminates this procedure and instead requires an entity to perform its goodwill
impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. This guidance also
eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform aqualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, andinstead requires the disclosure of the amount of goodwill allocated to each reporting unit with a zero or negative
carrying amount of net assets. This guidance is effective for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests
in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill
impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The MUFG Group is currently evaluating
what effect the guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.
Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial
Assets—In February 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which clarifies the scope of the guidance onderecognition of nonfinancial assets and provides guidance on the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial
assets. This guidance defines an in substance nonfinancial asset, unifies guidance related to partial sales of
nonfinancial assets, eliminates rules specifically addressing sales of real estate, removes exceptions to thefinancial asset derecognition model, and clarifies the accounting for contributions of nonfinancial assets to joint
venture. The effective date and early adoption of this guidance will be the same as the effective date and early
adoption of the new revenue standard, which is not yet effective. The MUFG Group is currently evaluating what
effect all of the guidance above will have on its financial position and results of operations.
Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost—In
March 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which requires that an employer report the service cost component
in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent
employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income
F-31

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
statement separately outside of operations. This guidance also allows only the service cost component to beeligible for capitalization when applicable. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the
beginning of an annual period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued. The
MUFG Group is currently evaluating what effect the guidance will have on its financial position and results ofoperations.
Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities—In March 2017, the FASB issued new
guidance which shortens the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium,specifically requiring the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. This guidance does not require an
accounting change for securities held at a discount, and the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. This
guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15,
2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The MUFG Group is currently
evaluating what effect the guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.
Scope of Modification Accounting—In May 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which clarifies when toaccount for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under thisguidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of
the award changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. This guidance is effective for annual periods,
and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted,
including adoption in any interim period, for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The MUFG
Group is currently evaluating what effect the guidance will have on its financial position and results ofoperations.

Other Securities
Investment securities other than Available-for-sale securities or Held-to-maturity securities(i.e., nonmarketable equity securities presented in Other investment securities) were primarily carried at cost of¥530,026 million and ¥529,869 million at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively, because their fair values were
not readily determinable.
The remaining balances were investment securities held by certain subsidiaries subject to specialized
industry accounting principles for investment companies and broker-dealers and carried at fair valueof ¥24,689 million and ¥26,292 million at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. See Note 32 for the valuation
techniques and inputs used to estimate the fair values.
F-35

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
With respect to cost-method investments of ¥97,774 million and ¥97,774 million at March 31, 2016 and2017, respectively, the MUFG Group estimated a fair value using commonly accepted valuation techniques todetermine whether the investments were impaired in each reporting period. See Note 32 for the details of thesecommonly accepted valuation techniques. If the fair value of the investment is less than the cost of theinvestment, the MUFG Group proceeds to evaluate whether the impairment is other-than-temporary.
With respect to cost-method investments of ¥432,252 million and ¥432,095 million at March 31, 2016 and2017, respectively, the MUFG Group performed a test to determine whether any impairment indicators existed
for each investment in each reporting period. If an impairment indicator exists, the MUFG Group estimates thefair value of the cost-method investment. If the fair value of the investment is less than the cost of the investment,
the MUFG Group performs an evaluation of whether the impairment is other-than-temporary. The primarymethod the MUFG Group uses to identify impairment indicators is a comparison of the MUFG Group’s share of
an investee’s net assets to the cost of the MUFG Group’s investment in the investee. The MUFG Group also
considers whether significant adverse changes in the regulatory, economic or technological environment haveoccurred with respect to the investee. The MUFG Group periodically monitors the status of each investee
including the credit rating, which is generally updated once a year based on the annual financial statements of theissuer. In addition, if an event that could impact the credit rating of an investee occurs, the MUFG Groupreassesses the appropriateness of the credit rating assigned to the issuer in order to maintain an updated credit
rating. The MUFG Group did not estimate the fair value of cost-method investments, which had aggregated costsof ¥431,705 million and ¥429,313 million at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively, since it was not practicaland the MUFG Group identified no impairment indicators.
Based on the procedures described above, the MUFG Group recognized OTTI losses on the cost-method
investments of ¥1,821 million, ¥14,242 million and ¥1,044 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015,2016 and 2017, respectively. The OTTI losses of ¥14,242 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 wasderived from a limited number of companies categorized in the manufacturing industry. Each impairment loss
was recognized based on the specific circumstances of each individual company.

Available-for-sale debt securities at March 31, 2017 by contractual maturity are shown below. Expectedmaturities may be shorter than contractual maturities because issuers of debt securities may have the right to callor prepay obligations with or without penalties.

Evaluating Investment Securities for Other-than-temporary Impairments
The following describes the nature of the MUFG Group’s investments and the conclusions reached indetermining whether the unrealized losses were temporary or other-than-temporary.
Japanese national government and Japanese government agency bonds, Foreign governments and official
institutions bonds, and Residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities
As of March 31, 2017, unrealized losses associated with these securities were deemed to be attributable tochanges in market interest rates rather than a deterioration in the creditworthiness of the underlying obligor.
Based on a consideration of factors, including cash flow analysis, the MUFG Group expects to recover the entire
amortized cost basis of these securities. Accordingly, such changes are considered to be temporary and no
impairment loss has been recorded.
Asset-backed securities
As of March 31, 2017, unrealized losses on these securities were primarily driven by certain collateralized
loan obligations (“CLOs”), highly illiquid securities for which fair values are difficult to determine. Unrealized
losses arise from widening credit spreads, deterioration of the credit quality of the underlying collateral,
uncertainty regarding the valuation of such securities and the market’s view of the performance of the fundmanagers. When the fair value of a security is lower than its amortized cost or when any security is subject to a

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
deterioration in credit rating, the MUFG Group undertakes a cash flow analysis of the underlying collateral toestimate the OTTI and confirms the intent and ability to hold these securities until recovery. Based on theanalysis performed, no OTTI was identified as of March 31, 2017 and no impairment loss has been recorded.
Corporate bonds
As of March 31, 2017, unrealized losses associated with corporate bonds were primarily related to private
placement bonds issued by Japanese non-public companies. The credit loss component recognized in earnings is
identified as the amount of principal cash flows not expected to be received over the remaining terms of thebonds as estimated using the MUFG Group’s cash flow projections. The key assumptions include probability ofdefault based on credit ratings of the bond issuers and loss given default.
The following table presents a roll-forward of the credit loss component recognized in earnings. The balanceat the beginning of each fiscal year represents the credit loss component for which OTTI occurred on debt
securities in prior periods. The additions represent the first time a debt security was credit impaired or whensubsequent credit impairment has occurred. The credit loss component is reduced when the corporate bonds
mature or are sold.

(7,255) (3,086) (3,307)¥ 8,814 ¥ 6,691 ¥ 4,125

The cumulative declines in fair value of the credit impaired debt securities, which were mainly corporate
bonds, held at March 31, 2016 and 2017 were ¥4,098 million and ¥3,450 million, respectively. Of which, thecredit loss components recognized in earnings were ¥6,691 million and ¥4,125 million, and the remaining
amounts related to all other factors recognized in Accumulated OCI before taxes were ¥2,593 million and¥675 million at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively.
Other debt securities
As of March 31, 2017, other debt securities primarily consist of private placement debt conduit bonds,
which are not rated by external credit rating agencies. The unrealized losses on these bonds result from a higher
return on capital expected by the secondary market compared with the return on capital required at the time oforigination when the bonds were purchased. The MUFG Group estimates loss projections for each security byassessing the underlying collateral of each security. The MUFG Group estimates the portion of loss attributableto credit based on the expected cash flows of the underlying collateral using estimates of current key assumptions
such as probability of default and loss severity. Cash flow analysis of the underlying collateral provides anestimate of OTTI, which is performed when the fair value of a security is lower than its amortized cost andpotential impairment is identified. Based on the analysis, no OTTI losses were recorded in the accompanying
consolidated statements of income.

F-40

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Marketable equity securities
The MUFG Group determines whether unrealized losses on marketable equity securities are temporary
based on its ability and positive intent to hold the investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for any
anticipated recovery and the results of its review conducted to identify and evaluate investments that haveindications of possible impairment. Impairment is evaluated considering various factors, and their relative
significance varies from case to case. The MUFG Group’s review includes, but is not limited to, consideration of
the following factors:
The length of time that the fair value of the investment has been below cost—The MUFG Group generally
deems a continued decline of fair value below cost for six months or more to be other-than-temporary.
The extent to which the fair value of investments has been below cost as of the end of the reporting period—
The MUFG Group’s investment portfolio is exposed to volatile equity prices affected by many factors including
investors’ perspectives as to future economic prospects and the issuers’ performance. The MUFG Groupgenerally deems the decline in fair value below cost of 20% or more as an indicator of an other-than-temporary
decline in fair value.
The financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer—The MUFG Group considers the financial
condition and near-term prospects of the issuer primarily based on the credit standing of the issuers as
determined by its credit rating system.
At March 31, 2017, unrealized losses on marketable equity securities which have been in a continuous loss
position are considered temporary based on the evaluation as described above.

¥722,427¥927,751

Notes:(1) TDRs for the Commercial and Residential segments include accruing loans, and do not include nonaccrual loans.
(2) TDRs for the Card, MUAH and Krungsri segments include accrual and nonaccrual loans. Included in the outstanding recorded
investment balances as of March 31, 2016 and 2017 are nonaccrual TDRs as follows: ¥41,413 million and ¥39,747 million—Card;¥49,242 million and ¥45,122 million—MUAH; and ¥13,756 million and ¥18,998 million—Krungsri, respectively.

A modification of terms of a loan under a TDR mainly involves: (i) a reduction in the stated interest rateapplicable to the loan, (ii) an extension of the stated maturity date of the loan, (iii) a partial forgiveness of theprincipal of the loan, or (iv) a combination of all of these. Those loans are also considered impaired loans, andhence the allowance for credit losses is separately established for each loan. As a result, the amount of allowancefor credit losses increases in many cases upon classification as a TDR loan. The amount of pre-modification
outstanding recorded investment and post-modification outstanding recorded investment may differ due to writeoffs made as part of the concession. The impact of write-offs associated with TDRs on the MUFG Group’s
results of operations for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 was not material.
TDRs for the Commercial and Residential segments in the above tables include accruing loans, and do notinclude nonaccrual loans. Once a loan is classified as a nonaccrual loan, a modification would have little
likelihood of resulting in the recovery of the loan in view of the severity of the financial difficulty of theborrower. Therefore, even if a nonaccrual loan is modified, the loan continues to be classified as a nonaccrualloan. The vast majority of modifications to nonaccrual loans are temporary extensions of the maturity dates,
typically for periods up to 90 days, and continually made as the borrower is unable to repay or refinance the loan
at the extended maturity. Accordingly, the impact of such TDRs on the outstanding recorded investment isimmaterial, and the vast majority of nonaccrual TDRs have subsequently defaulted.
TDRs that subsequently defaulted in the Commercial and Residential segments in the above tables include
those accruing loans that became past due one month or more within the Commercial segment and six months ormore within the Residential segment, and those accruing loans reclassified to nonaccrual loans due to financial
F-49

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
difficulties even without delinquencies. This is because classification as a nonaccrual loan is regarded as default
under the MUFG Group’s credit policy. Also, the MUFG Group defines default as payment default for the
purpose of the disclosure.
Regarding the Card, MUAH and Krungsri segments, the TDRs in the above tables represent nonaccrual andaccruing loans, and the defaulted loans in the above table represent nonaccruing and accruing loans that became
past due one month or more within the Card segment, 60 days or more within the MUAH segment, and six
months or more within the Krungsri segment.
Historical payment defaults are one of the factors considered when projecting future cash flows indetermining the allowance for credit losses for each segment.
The MUFG Group provided commitments to extend credit to customers with TDRs. The amounts of suchcommitments were ¥31,302 million and ¥168,840 million at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. See Note 25
for further discussion of commitments to extend credit.

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)(2) Total loans of MUAH do not include FDIC covered loans and small business loans which are not individually rated totaling¥43,037 million and ¥40,534 million as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. The MUFG Group will be reimbursed for a
substantial portion of any future losses on FDIC covered loans under the terms of the FDIC loss share agreements.

The MUFG Group classifies loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability ofborrowers to service their debt, including, but not limited to, historical and current financial information,
historical and current payment experience, credit documentation, public and non-public information aboutborrowers and current economic trends as deemed appropriate to each segment.
The primary credit quality indicator for loans within all classes of the Commercial segment is the internal
credit rating assigned to each borrower based on the MUFG Group’s internal borrower ratings of 1 through 15,
with the rating of 1 assigned to a borrower with the highest quality of credit. When assigning a credit rating to aborrower, the MUFG Group evaluates the borrower’s expected debt-service capability based on various
information, including financial and operating information of the borrower as well as information on the industry
in which the borrower operates, and the borrower’s business profile, management and compliance system. In
evaluating a borrower’s debt-service capability, the MUFG Group also conducts an assessment of the level of
earnings and an analysis of the borrower’s net worth. Based on the internal borrower rating, loans within theCommercial segment are categorized as Normal (internal borrower ratings of 1 through 9), Close Watch (internalborrower ratings of 10 through 12), and Likely to become Bankrupt or Legally/Virtually Bankrupt (internalborrower ratings of 13 through 15).
Loans to borrowers categorized as Normal represent those that are not deemed to have collectibility issues.
Loans to borrowers categorized as Close Watch represent those that require close monitoring as theborrower has begun to exhibit elements of potential concern with respect to its business performance andfinancial condition, the borrower has begun to exhibit elements of serious concern with respect to its businessperformance and financial condition, including business problems requiring long-term solutions, or the
borrower’s loans are TDRs or loans contractually past due 90 days or more for special reasons.
Loans to borrowers categorized as Likely to become Bankrupt or Legally/Virtually Bankrupt represent thosethat have a higher probability of default than those categorized as Close Watch due to serious debt repayment
problems with poor progress in achieving restructuring plans, the borrower being considered virtually bankrupt
with no prospects for an improvement in business operations, or the borrower being legally bankrupt with noprospects for continued business operations because of non-payment, suspension of business, voluntaryliquidation or filing for legal liquidation.
The accrual status is a primary credit quality indicator for loans within the Residential segment, the Card
segment and consumer loans within the MUAH segment. The accrual status of these loans is determined basedon the number of delinquent payments. See Note 1 for further details of categorization of Accrual andNonaccrual.
Commercial loans within the MUAH segment are categorized as either pass or criticized based on theinternal credit rating assigned to each borrower. Criticized credits are those that are internally risk graded asSpecial Mention, Substandard or Doubtful. Special Mention credits are potentially weak, as the borrower has
begun to exhibit deteriorating trends, which, if not corrected, may jeopardize repayment of the loan and result infurther downgrade. Classified credits are those that are internally risk graded as Substandard or Doubtful.
Substandard credits have well-defined weaknesses, which, if not corrected, could jeopardize the full satisfactionof the debt. A credit classified as Doubtful has critical weaknesses that make full collection improbable on thebasis of currently existing facts and conditions.
F-52

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Loans within the Krungsri segment are categorized as Normal, Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful, andDoubtful of Loss primarily based on their delinquency status. Loans categorized as Special Mention generally
represent those that have the overdue principal or interest payments for a cumulative period exceeding one monthcommencing from the contractual due date. Loans categorized as Substandard, Doubtful or Doubtful of Loss
generally represent those that have the overdue principal or interest payments for a cumulative period exceeding
three months commencing from the contractual due date.
For the Commercial, Residential and Card segments, credit quality indicators are based on information as ofMarch 31. For the MUAH and Krungsri segments, credit quality indicators are generally based on information asof December 31.

Sales of Loans
The MUFG Group originates various types of loans to corporate and individual borrowers in Japan andoverseas in the normal course of business. In order to improve its loan quality, BTMU and MUTB actively
disposed of nonperforming loans. Most of the nonperforming loans were disposed of by sales to third parties
without any continuing involvement. Management of BTMU and MUTB generally approves disposals after
significant sales terms, including prices, are negotiated. As such, loans are disposed of by sales shortly after theloans are transferred to the held-for-sale classification. The net gains on the sales of loans were ¥15,257 million,¥12,094 million and ¥19,466 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

Premises and equipment include capitalized leases, principally related to data processing equipment, whichamounted to ¥34,365 million and ¥26,871 million at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. Accumulated
depreciation on such capitalized leases at March 31, 2016 and 2017 amounted to ¥23,874 million and¥14,750 million, respectively.
BTMU has entered into sales agreements to sell its buildings and land and, under separate agreements,
leased those properties back for its business operations, including bank branches. BTMU either provided
nonrecourse financing to the buyers for the sales proceeds or invested in the equity or common stock of thebuyers. As a result, BTMU was considered to have continuing involvement with the properties. For accounting
and reporting purposes, these transactions were accounted for under the financing method with the sales proceeds
recognized as a financing obligation. The properties were reported on the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets and depreciated. The financing obligation at March 31, 2016 and 2017 was ¥44,152 million and ¥43,031
million, respectively.
For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, the MUFG Group recognized ¥6,057 million,¥7,016 million and ¥5,964 million, respectively, of impairment losses for long-lived assets, primarily real estate
which was either formerly used for its banking operations and is no longer used or real estate that is being used
where recovery of the carrying amount is doubtful. In addition, ¥176 million, ¥541 million and ¥901 million of
impairment losses were recognized for real estate held for sale for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016
and 2017, respectively. These losses are included in Other non-interest expenses. In computing the amount of
impairment losses, fair value was determined primarily based on market prices, if available, or the estimatedprice based on an appraisal.

Notes:(1) See Note 30 for the business segment information of the MUFG Group.
(2) See Note 2 for the goodwill acquired in connection with acquisition.

U.S. GAAP requires to test goodwill for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events orchanges in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired, using a two-step process that begins with anestimation of the fair value of a reporting unit, which is to be compared with the carrying amount of the reporting
unit including goodwill, to identify potential impairment of goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit
including goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed
to measure the amount of impairment loss recorded in the consolidated statements of income. This test requires
comparison of the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of its goodwill.

For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, the MUFG Group recognized ¥3,432 million,¥4,298 million and ¥6,638 million, respectively, in impairment of goodwill relating to reporting units within the
Trust Assets Business Group segment. The MUFG Group readjusted its future cash flow projection of thereporting units in this segment, considering the subsidiaries’ recent business performance. Due to the situation,
the fair value of the reporting units, which were based on discounted future cash flows, fell below the carrying
amounts of the reporting units. Accordingly, the second step of the goodwill impairment test was performed forthe reporting units. As a result, the carrying amounts of the reporting units’ goodwill exceeded the implied fairvalue of the reporting units’ goodwill, and the impairment losses were recognized on the related goodwill.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, the MUFG Group recognized total of ¥329,421 million in
impairment of goodwill relating to reporting unit Other than MUAH/Krungsri and Krungsri reporting unit, bothof which were within the Global Business Group segment.
The MUFG Group recognized ¥151,671 million in impairment of goodwill relating to reporting unit Other
than MUAH/Krungsri within the Global Business Group segment. The Bank of Japan introduced Quantitativeand Qualitative Monetary Easing with Negative Interest Rates in January, 2016, and the benchmark yield turnedand stayed negative through to the end of the fiscal year. Share prices have fallen and the Japanese yen
appreciated since the start of the calendar year as a reflection of heightened risk aversion around the globe. It led
MUFG’s stock price to decline from ¥743.7 at March 31, 2015 to ¥521.5 at March 31, 2016. Since the fair valueof reporting unit Other than MUAH/Krungsri within the Global Business Group segment was estimated based on
MUFG’s stock price, this decline led to decrease in the market capitalization and negatively affected the fairvalue of the reporting unit. Due to the situation, the fair value of the reporting unit fell below the carrying amountof the reporting unit. Accordingly, the second step of the goodwill impairment test was performed for thisreporting unit. As a result, the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeded the implied fair value ofthe reporting unit’s goodwill, and the impairment loss was recognized on the related goodwill.
The MUFG Group recognized ¥177,750 million in impairment of goodwill relating to Krungsri reporting
unit within the Global Business Group segment. The economy in China continued to slow down due to the
suppressed investment environment, while weak exports weighed on other Asian economies. It led to a slow
down in economic growth in Thailand and Krungsri’s stock price to decline from Thai baht 44.75 at
December 31, 2014 to Thai baht 29.75 at December 31, 2015. Since the fair value of Krungsri reporting unit
within the Global Business Group segment was estimated based on Krungsri’s stock price, this decline led todecrease in the market capitalization and negatively affected the fair value of the reporting unit. Due to thesituation, the fair value of the reporting unit fell below the carrying amount of the reporting unit. Accordingly,
the second step of the goodwill impairment test was performed for this reporting unit. As a result, the carrying
amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeded the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, and the
impairment loss was recognized on the related goodwill.

Intangible assets subject to amortization acquired during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 amounted to¥231,602 million, which primarily consisted of ¥223,809 million of software and ¥6,479 million of customer
relationships. The weighted average amortization periods for these assets are 6 years and 22 years, respectively.
There is no significant residual value estimated for these assets. Intangible assets not subject to amortizationacquired during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 amounted to ¥389 million.
Intangible assets subject to amortization acquired during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 amounted to¥254,064 million, which primarily consisted of ¥234,882 million of software and ¥19,086 million of customer
relationships. The weighted average amortization periods for these assets are 5 years and 20 years, respectively.
There is no significant residual value estimated for these assets. Intangible assets not subject to amortizationacquired during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 amounted to ¥1 million.
For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, the MUFG Group recognized ¥677 million,¥117,726 million and ¥5,803 million, respectively, of impairment losses for intangible assets whose carrying
amounts exceeded their fair value. In computing the amount of impairment losses, fair value was determinedprimarily based on the present value of expected future cash flows, the estimated value based on appraisals, ormarket prices.
The impairment loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 included a loss of ¥8,043 million relating tocustomer relationship under Trust Asset Business Group segment. The fair value of the customer relationshipwas calculated based on the present value of expected future cash flows, which could be affected by the amountof the assets under management and fluctuation of the markets. Estimated future cash flows of the above
customer relationship were readjusted downwards due to instability of bond markets and large fluctuations offoreign exchange markets. Accordingly, the MUFG Group reevaluated the fair value of the customer relationshipand recognized an impairment loss. Also, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, the MUFG Group recognized
an impairment loss of ¥8,923 million related to software for internal use.

The impairment loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 included a loss of ¥99,981 million relating tocore deposit intangible acquired in connection with the merger with UFJ Holdings. The fair value of this core
deposit intangible was calculated based on the present value of expected future cash flows in 2005. As a result ofnegative interest rate policy by the Bank of Japan, estimated future cost saving became negative due to thedecrease of the spread between the interest rate of the core deposit funding and the decreased alternative interest
rate of the market funding, and the estimated future cash flows were revised downwards. Accordingly, the
MUFG Group reevaluated core deposit intangible and recognized impairment loss.

The MUFG Group has changed to filing on a consolidated basis for corporate income taxes within Japan
beginning with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. A consolidated basis for corporate income taxes results in
the reporting of taxable income or loss based upon the combined profits or losses of the parent company and its
wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries.
On March 31, 2015, the Japanese Diet enacted the “2015 Tax Reform” which includes changes in thelimitation on the use of net operating loss carryforwards from 80% to 65% of taxable income for the two-year
period between April 1, 2015 and March 31, 2017, and from 65% to 50% for the fiscal years beginning on orafter April 1, 2017, respectively, and one-year increase in the carryforward period of certain net operating loss
carryforwards from nine-year period to ten-year period for the fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2017, as
well as reduction in the effective statutory rate of corporate income tax from approximately 35.6% to 33.9% for
the fiscal year beginning on or after April 1, 2015. The change in tax law resulted in a decrease of¥39,966 million in income tax expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
On March 29, 2016, the Japanese Diet enacted the “2016 Tax Reform” which reduces in the effective
statutory rate of corporate income tax from approximately 33.9% to 31.5% for the fiscal year beginning on orafter April 1, 2016. In addition, this “2016 Tax Reform” partially amends the articles in the “2015 Tax Reform”
relating to the limitation on the use of net operating loss carryforwards and the carryforward period of certain net
operating loss carryforwards in order to equalize the tax burden of companies. That is, changes in the limitationon the use of net operating loss carryforwards from 65% to 60% of taxable income for the period between
April 1, 2016 and March 31, 2017, and from 50% to 55% for the period between April 1, 2017 and March 31,

2018, respectively, and one-year decrease in the carryforward period of certain net operating loss carryforwards
from ten-year period to nine-year period for the period between April 1, 2017 and March 31, 2018. The change intax law resulted in a decrease of ¥50,081 million in income tax expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.
In June 2016, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Bureau of Taxation promulgated revisions to the local
tax law. The revision reduces the effective statutory rate of corporate income tax from approximately 31.5% as ofMarch 31, 2016 to 30.6% for the fiscal year beginning on or after April 1, 2017. The revision resulted in adecrease of ¥26,820 million in income tax expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
Reconciliation of Effective Income Tax Rate
Income taxes in Japan applicable to the MUFG Group are imposed by the national, prefectural andmunicipal governments, and in the aggregate resulted in a normal effective statutory rate of approximately
35.6%, 33.9%, and 31.5% for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. Foreignsubsidiaries are subject to income taxes of the countries in which they operate.

The valuation allowance was provided primarily against deferred tax assets recorded at MUFG and its
subsidiaries with operating loss carryforwards. The valuation allowance is determined to reduce the measurementof deferred tax assets not expected to be realized. Management considers all available evidence, both positive andnegative, to determine whether the valuation allowance is necessary based on the weight of that evidence.
Management determines the amount of the valuation allowance based on future reversals of existing taxable
temporary differences and future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences. Future taxable
income is developed from forecasted operating results, based on recent historical trends and approved businessplans, the eligible carryforward periods and other relevant factors.
For certain subsidiaries where strong negative evidence exists, such as the existence of significant amountsof operating loss carryforwards, cumulative losses and the expiration of unused operating loss carryforwards inrecent years, a valuation allowance was recognized against the deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2016 and 2017
to the extent that it is more likely than not that they will not be realized.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, the MUFG Group recorded a valuation allowance release of¥65,728 million which was mainly due to the profitability improvement of a certain subsidiary. Management
considered various factors, including the improved operating performance and cumulative operating results overthe prior several years of the subsidiary as well as the outlook regarding prospective operating performance ofthe subsidiary, and determined that sufficient positive evidence exists as of March 31, 2016, to conclude that it ismore likely than not that additional deferred tax assets would be realizable. As a result, a valuation allowance
provided against deferred tax assets with operating loss carryforwards not expected to be realized as ofMarch 31, 2015 was partially reduced as of March 31, 2016.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the MUFG Group recorded an additional valuation allowance of¥60,208 million. This was mainly due to a decline in estimated future taxable income of a certain subsidiary
resulting from the downturn in the consumer finance business. Management considered various factors, including
the existence of significant amounts of operating loss carryforwards and cumulative operating results over theprior several years of the subsidiary as well as the outlook regarding prospective operating performance of thesubsidiary, and determined that sufficient negative evidence exists as of March 31, 2017, to conclude that it ismore likely than not that deferred tax assets would not be realizable.
Income taxes are not provided on undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that are considered
to be indefinitely reinvested in the operations of such subsidiaries. At March 31, 2016 and 2017, theundistributed earnings of such foreign subsidiaries amounted to approximately ¥29,250 million and¥28,338 million, respectively. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities with respect
to these undistributed earnings is not practicable because of the complexity associated with its hypothetical
calculation including foreign withholding taxes and foreign tax credits. MUFG has neither plans nor the intention
to dispose of investments in such foreign subsidiaries and, accordingly, does not expect to record capital gains orlosses, or otherwise monetize the undistributed earnings of such foreign subsidiaries.
Furthermore, under the Japanese tax law, 95% of a dividend received from a foreign company in which adomestic company has held generally at least 25% of the outstanding shares for a continuous period of six
months or more ending on the date on which the dividend is declared can be excluded from the domestic
company’s taxable income. Therefore, if undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries are repatriatedthrough dividends, only 5% of the amount of dividends will be included in the taxable income.
Operating Loss and Tax Credit Carryforwards
At March 31, 2017, the MUFG Group had operating loss carryforwards for corporate tax of¥516,139 million and tax credit carryforwards of ¥18,679 million for tax purposes. Such carryforwards, if not
utilized, are scheduled to expire as follows:

The MUFG Group is currently under continuous examinations by the tax authorities in various domestic andforeign jurisdictions and many of these examinations are resolved every year. The unrecognized tax benefits will
decrease since resolved items will be removed from the balance regardless of whether their resolution results inpayment or recognition. It is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by an amountnot exceeding ¥1 billion during the next twelve months.

¥33,696,968

At March 31, 2017, certain investment securities, principally Japanese national government and Japanese
government agency bonds, loans, and other assets aggregating to ¥14,656,766 million were pledged as collateral
for acting as a collection agent of public funds, for settlement of exchange at the Bank of Japan and the Tokyo
Bankers Association, for derivative transactions and for certain other purposes.
The MUFG Group engages in on-balance sheet securitizations. These securitizations of mortgage andapartment loans, which do not qualify for sales treatment, are accounted for as secured borrowings. The amountof loans in the table above represents the carrying amount of these transactions with the carrying amount of theassociated liabilities included in Other short-term borrowings and Long-term debt.
Under Japanese law, Japanese banks are required to maintain certain reserves on deposit with the Bank of Japan
based on the amount of deposit balances and certain other factors. There are similar reserve deposit requirements forforeign offices and subsidiaries engaged in banking businesses in foreign countries. At March 31, 2016 and 2017 thereserve funds required to be maintained by the MUFG Group, which are included in Cash and due from banks andInterest-earning deposits in other banks, were ¥2,958,326 million and ¥2,765,966 million, respectively.
Collateral
The MUFG Group accepts and provides financial assets as collateral for transactions, principallycommercial loans, repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions, call money, and derivatives.
Financial assets eligible for such collateral include, among others, marketable equity securities, trade and notes
receivable and CDs.
Secured parties, including creditors and counterparties to certain transactions with the MUFG Group, may
sell or repledge financial assets provided as collateral. Certain contracts, however, may not be specific about the
secured party’s right to sell or repledge collateral under the applicable statutes and, therefore, whether or not the
F-69

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
secured party is permitted to sell or repledge collateral would differ depending on the interpretations of specificprovisions of the existing statutes, contract or certain market practices. If the MUFG Group determines, based on
available information, that a financial asset provided as collateral might not be sold or repledged by the secured
parties, such collateral is not separately reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. If a secured
party is permitted to sell or repledge financial assets provided as collateral by contract or custom under the
existing statutes, the MUFG Group reports such pledged financial assets separately on the face of theaccompanying consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2017, the MUFG Group pledged ¥29,545 billion ofassets that may not be sold or repledged by the secured parties.
Certain banking subsidiaries accept collateral for commercial loans and certain banking transactions under astandardized agreement with customers, which provides that these banking subsidiaries may require thecustomers to provide collateral or guarantees with respect to the loans and other banking transactions. Financial
assets pledged as collateral are generally negotiable and transferable instruments, and such negotiability andtransferability are authorized by applicable legislation. In principle, Japanese legislation permits these banking
subsidiaries to repledge financial assets accepted as collateral unless otherwise prohibited by contract or relevant
statutes. Nevertheless, the MUFG Group did not sell or repledge nor does it plan to sell or repledge suchcollateral accepted in connection with commercial loans before a debtor’s default or other credit events specified
in the agreements as it is not customary within the banking industry in Japan to dispose of collateral before adebtor’s default and other specified credit events. Derivative agreements commonly used in the marketplace do
not prohibit a secured party’s disposition of financial assets received as collateral, and in resale agreements andsecurities borrowing transactions, securities accepted as collateral may be sold or repledged by the secured
parties. At March 31, 2016 and 2017, the fair value of the collateral accepted by the MUFG Group that ispermitted to be sold or repledged was ¥19,366 billion and ¥26,850 billion, respectively, of which ¥13,959 billionand ¥18,420 billion, respectively, was sold or repledged.
At March 31, 2016 and 2017, the cash collateral pledged for derivative transactions, which is included in Other
assets, was ¥1,510,689 million and ¥1,663,945 million, respectively, and the cash collateral received for derivativetransactions, which is included in Other liabilities, was ¥1,265,041 million and ¥1,080,929 million, respectively.

However, excess cash funds of individual trust accounts are often placed with MUTB which manages thefunds together with its own funds in its proprietary account. Due to trust account reflects a temporary placementof the excess funds from individual trust accounts and, in view of the MUFG Group’s funding, due to trust
account is similar to short-term funding, including demand deposits and other overnight funds purchased. Thebalance changes in response to the day-to-day changes in the excess funds placed by the trust accounts. A

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
The MUFG Group also offers qualified and nonqualified defined benefit pension plans in foreign offices
and subsidiaries for their employees. The qualified plans are non-contributory defined pension plans, which
provide benefits upon retirement based on years of service and average compensation and cover substantially allof the employees of such foreign offices and subsidiaries. With respect to the offices and subsidiaries in the
United States of America, the qualified plans are funded on a current basis in compliance with the requirement of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of the United States of America. The nonqualified plans are
non-contributory defined benefit pension plans, under which certain employees earn pay and interest credits oncompensation amounts above the maximum stipulated by applicable laws under the qualified plans.
Severance Indemnities Plans
The MUFG Group has SIPs under which their employees in Japan, other than those who are directors, areentitled, under most circumstances, upon mandatory retirement at normal retirement age or earlier termination of
employment, to lump-sum severance indemnities based on eligible compensation at the time of severance, rank,
years of service and other factors. Under SIPs, benefit payments in the form of a lump-sum cash payment with nooption to receive annuity payments, upon mandatory retirement at normal retirement age or earlier termination of
employment, are provided. When a benefit is paid in a single payment to a benefit payee under the plans, thepayment represents final relief of the obligation.
Other Postretirement Plans
The MUFG Group’s foreign offices and subsidiaries, primarily in the United States of America, provide
their employees with certain postretirement medical and life insurance benefits (“other benefits”).

¥ 6,826¥ 6,949¥(1,210)Investment policies
MUFG’s investment policy for plan assets is based on an asset liability matching strategy which is intended
to maintain adequate liquidity for benefit payments and to achieve a stable increase in the plan assets in themedium and long-term through proper risk control and return maximization. As a general rule, investment
policies for plan assets are reviewed periodically for some plans and in the following situations for all plans:(1) large fluctuations in pension plan liabilities caused by modifications to pension plans, or (2) changes in themarket environment. The plan assets allocation strategies are the principal determinant in achieving expected
investment returns on the plan assets. Actual asset allocations may fluctuate within acceptable ranges due tomarket value variability. Plan assets are managed by a combination of internal and external asset managementcompanies and are rebalanced when market fluctuations cause an asset category to fall outside of its strategic
asset allocation range. Performance of each plan asset category is compared against established indices andsimilar plan asset groups to evaluate whether the risk associated with the portfolio is appropriate for the level ofreturn.
The weighted-average target asset allocation of plan assets for the pension benefits and other benefits at
March 31, 2017 was as follows:

Basis and procedure for estimating long-term return of each asset category
MUFG’s expected long-term rate of return on plan assets for domestic defined benefit pension plans and
SIPs is based on a building-block methodology, which calculates the total long-term rate of return of the plan
assets by aggregating the weighted rate of return derived from both long-term historical performance andforward-looking return expectations from each asset category.
F-80

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
MUFG has determined the expected long-term rate of return for each asset category as follows:‰

Japanese equity securities: the rate for Japanese debt securities plus a premium for the risk associatedwith Japanese equity securities‰

Japanese debt securities: economic growth rate of Japan‰

Non-Japanese equity securities: the rate for non-Japanese debt securities plus a premium for the risk
associated with non-Japanese equity securities‰

Non-Japanese debt securities: global economic growth rate

Foreign offices and subsidiaries periodically reconsider the expected long-term rate of return for their plan
assets. They evaluate the investment return volatility of different asset categories and compare the liability
structure of their pension and other benefits to those of other companies, while considering their funding policy
to maintain a funded status sufficient to meet participants’ benefit obligations, and reduce long-term funding
requirements and pension costs. Based on this information, foreign offices and subsidiaries update the expectedlong-term rate of return.
Cash flows
The MUFG Group expects to contribute to the plan assets for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 based
upon its current funded status and expected asset return assumptions as follows:

When quoted prices are available in an active market, the MUFG Group adopts the quoted prices to measure
the fair value of securities and such securities are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Level 1
securities include Japanese government bonds, most non-Japanese government bonds and certain corporate
bonds. When quoted prices are available but not traded actively, such securities are classified in Level 2 of thefair value hierarchy. When quoted prices are not available, the MUFG Group generally estimates fair values byusing non-binding prices obtained from independent pricing vendors. Such securities are generally classified in
Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Level 2 securities include certain non-Japanese government bonds, official
institutions bonds and corporate bonds. When there is lack of liquidity for securities or significant inputs adopted
to the fair value measurements are unobservable, such securities are classified in Level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy. Such Level 3 securities mainly consist of non-Japanese corporate bonds.
Marketable equity securities
When quoted prices are available in an active market, the MUFG Group adopts the quoted prices to measure
the fair value of marketable equity securities and such securities are classified in Level 1 of the fair value
hierarchy. When quoted prices are available but not traded actively, such securities are classified in Level 2 ofthe fair value hierarchy.
Japanese pooled funds
Japanese pooled funds are investment fund vehicles designed for Japanese pension plan investments underJapanese pension trust fund regulations. Based upon the nature of the funds’ investments, Japanese pooled funds
are categorized into four major fund types: Japanese marketable equity securities type, Japanese debt securities
type, Non-Japanese marketable equity securities type and Non-Japanese debt securities type. The other types offunds invest in short-term financial instruments or loans receivable. Japanese pooled funds are generally readily
redeemable at their net asset values. The fair values of Japanese pooled funds are measured at their net asset
values per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient.
Other investment funds
Other investment funds include mutual funds, private investments funds, common collective funds, private
equity funds and real estate funds. The listed investment funds or mutual funds are valued at quoted prices andclassified in Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. When there is no available market quotation, the fairvalues are generally determined at net asset values per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient. Other
investment funds classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy consist of certain real estate funds whose fairvalues are not measured at their net asset values but by using significant unobservable inputs and there is inherent
lack of the funds’ liquidity.
Japanese general accounts of life insurance companies
These instruments are contracts with life insurance companies that guarantee return of a certain level of
fixed income, which are mainly invested in assets with low market risk such as Japanese debt securities. They aremeasured at conversion value and classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

deposits with banks and short-term investments. These instruments are generally classified in Level 1 or Level 2of the fair value hierarchy depending on observability of the inputs to measure their fair values.

15. OFFSETTING OF DERIVATIVES, REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS, AND SECURITIESLENDING TRANSACTIONS
The following tables present, as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, the gross and net amounts of the derivatives,
resale and repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and lending transactions, including the related grossamounts subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement not offset in the consolidatedbalance sheets. The MUFG Group primarily enters into International Swaps and Derivatives Association masternetting agreements, master repurchase agreements and master securities lending agreements or similar
agreements for derivative contracts, resale and repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and lendingtransactions. In the event of default on or termination of any one contract, these agreements provide thecontracting parties with the right to net a counterparty’s rights and obligations and to liquidate and setoff
collateral against any net amount owed by the counterparty. Generally, as the MUFG Group has elected topresent such amounts on a gross basis, the amounts subject to these agreements are included in “Gross amounts
not offset in the consolidated balance sheet” column in the tabular disclosure below. For certain transactions
where a legal opinion with respect to the enforceability of netting has not been sought or obtained, the related
amounts are not subject to enforceable master netting agreements and not included in “Gross amounts not offset
in the consolidated balance sheet” column in the tabular disclosure below.

16. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS, AND SECURITIES LENDING TRANSACTIONS ACCOUNTED
FOR AS SECURED BORROWINGSThe following tables present gross obligations for payables under repurchase agreements, payables under
securities lending transactions and obligations to return securities received as collateral by remaining contractual
maturity and class of collateral pledged at March 31, 2016 and 2017. Potential risks associated with thesearrangements primarily relate to market and liquidity risks. To manage risks associated with market exposure, the
MUFG Group generally revalues the collateral underlying its repurchase agreements and securities lendingtransactions on a daily basis and monitors the value of the underlying securities, consisting of primarily highquality securities such as Japanese national government and Japanese government agency bonds, and foreign
governments and official institutions bonds. In the event the market value of such securities falls below the
related agreements at contract amounts plus accrued interest, the MUFG Group may be required to deposit
additional collateral when appropriate. To address liquidity risks, the MUFG Group conducts stress tests toensure the adequate level of liquidity is maintained in the event of a decline in the fair value of any collateralpledged.

Under the Companies Act, issuances of common stock, including conversions of bonds and notes, arerequired to be credited to the common stock account for at least 50% of the proceeds and to the legal capitalsurplus account (“legal capital surplus”) for the remaining amounts.
The Companies Act permits Japanese companies, upon approval by the Board of Directors, to issue sharesin the form of a “stock split,” as defined in the Companies Act. Also, prior to April 1, 1991, Japanese companies
were permitted to issue free share distributions. BTMU and MUTB from time to time made free share
distributions. These free distributions usually ranged from 5% to 10% of outstanding common stock andpublicly-owned corporations in the United States issuing shares in similar transactions would be required toaccount for them as stock dividends as of the shareholders’ record date by reducing retained earnings andincreasing the appropriate capital accounts by an amount equal to the fair value of the shares issued. The
application of such U.S. accounting practices to the cumulative free distributions made by BTMU and MUTB at
March 31, 2017, would have increased capital accounts by ¥1,910,106 million with a corresponding decrease inunappropriated retained earnings.
The Companies Act permits that common stock, legal reserve, additional paid-in capital, and other capitalsurplus and retained earnings can be transferred among these accounts under certain conditions upon the approvalof a shareholders’ meeting. The Companies Act limits the increase of paid-in capital in case disposition oftreasury stock and issuance of common stock are performed at the same time.
As for Capital surplus, the fee retained by MUFG’s subsidiary as underwriting compensation, net of stock
issuance expense, was included in the total Capital surplus balance.
Treasury Stock
The Companies Act permits Japanese companies to effect purchases of their own shares pursuant to a
resolution by the shareholders at an annual general meeting until the conclusion of the following ordinary general
F-93

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
meeting of shareholders, and to hold such shares as their treasury stock indefinitely regardless of purpose.
However, the Companies Act requires the amount of treasury stock purchased should be within the amount ofretained earnings available for dividends. Disposition of treasury stock is subject to the approval of the Board of
Directors and is to follow the procedures similar to a public offering of shares for subscription.

In addition to the Companies Act, Japanese banks, including BTMU and MUTB, are required to comply
with the Banking Law of Japan (the “Banking Law”).
Legal Reserve Set Aside as Appropriation of Retained Earnings and Legal Capital Surplus
Under the Companies Act
The Companies Act provides that an amount at least equal to 10% of the aggregate amount of cash
dividends and certain appropriations of retained earnings associated with cash outlays applicable to each period
shall be appropriated and set aside as a legal reserve until the aggregate amount of legal reserve set aside as an
appropriation of retained earnings and the legal capital surplus equals 25% of stated capital as defined in the
Companies Act.
Under the Banking Law
The Banking Law provides that an amount at least equal to 20% of the aggregate amount of cash dividends
and certain appropriations of retained earnings associated with cash outlays applicable to each fiscal year shall beappropriated and set aside as a legal reserve until the aggregate amount of legal reserve set aside as appropriationof retained earnings and the legal capital surplus equals 100% of stated capital as defined in the Companies Act.
Transfer of Legal Reserve
Under the Companies Act
Under the Companies Act, Japanese companies, including MUFG, were permitted, pursuant to a resolution
by the shareholders at a general meeting, to make legal reserve set aside as appropriation of retained earnings andlegal capital surplus available for dividends until the aggregate amount of the legal reserve and legal capitalsurplus equals 25% of stated capital as defined in the Companies Act.
Under the Companies Act, Japanese companies, including MUFG, BTMU and MUTB, are permitted,
primarily pursuant to a resolution by the shareholders at a general meeting, to transfer legal capital surplus andlegal reserve to stated capital and/or retained earnings without limitations of thresholds, thereby effectively
removing the thresholds provided for in the Companies Act and Banking Law at the company’s discretion.
Under the Banking Law
Under the Banking Law, Japanese banks, including BTMU and MUTB, were permitted, pursuant to a
resolution by the shareholders at a general meeting, to set aside a legal reserve as an appropriation of retained
earnings and legal capital surplus available for dividends until the aggregate amount of the legal reserve and legal
capital surplus equals 100% of stated capital as defined in the Companies Act.

Unappropriated Retained Earnings and Dividends
In addition to the provision that requires an appropriation for legal reserve as described above, theCompanies Act and the Banking Law impose certain limitations on the amount available for dividends.
Under the Companies Act, the amount available for dividends is based on the amount recorded in MUFG’s
general books of account maintained in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan(“Japanese GAAP”). The adjustments included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements but notrecorded in MUFG’s general books of account, as explained in Note 1, have no effect on the determination ofretained earnings available for dividends under the Companies Act. Under the Banking Law, MUFG, BTMU and
MUTB have to meet the minimum capital adequacy requirements and distributions of retained earnings of
MUFG, BTMU and MUTB, which are otherwise distributable to shareholders, are restricted in order to maintainthe minimum capital requirements.
MUFG, formerly known as Mitsubishi Tokyo Financial Group, was established on April 2, 2001 with
common stock of ¥924,400 million, preferred stock of ¥222,100 million, legal capital surplus of¥2,838,693 million and no retained earnings in accordance with the Commercial Code of Japan (“the Code”),
which was replaced by the Companies Act, and Japanese GAAP.
On October 1, 2005, MUFG started with common stock and preferred stock of ¥1,383,052 million, a legal
capital surplus of ¥3,577,570 million and retained earnings of ¥757,458 million in accordance with the Code andJapanese GAAP.
MUFG’s amount available for dividends, at March 31, 2017, was ¥4,413,610 million, which is based on theamount recorded in MUFG’s general books of account under Japanese GAAP.
Annual dividends, including those for preferred stock, are approved by the shareholders at an annual general
meeting held subsequent to the fiscal year to which the dividends are applicable. In addition, a semi-annualinterim dividend payment may be made by resolution of the Board of Directors, subject to limitations imposed by
the Companies Act and the Banking Law.
In the accompanying consolidated statements of equity, dividends and appropriations to legal reserve shownfor each fiscal year represent dividends approved and paid during the fiscal year and the related appropriation tolegal reserve.

22. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTSJapan
MUFG, BTMU, MUTB and MUSHD are subject to various regulatory capital requirements promulgated by
the regulatory authorities of the countries in which they operate. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements
will initiate certain mandatory actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on
MUFG’s consolidated financial statements.
In Japan, MUFG, BTMU, and MUTB are subject to regulatory capital requirements promulgated by the
Financial Services Agency of Japan (“FSA”) in accordance with the provisions of the Banking Law and related
regulations. A banking institution is subject to the minimum capital requirements both on a consolidated basis
and a stand-alone basis, and is required to maintain the minimum capital irrespective of whether it operates
independently or as a subsidiary under the control of another company. When a bank holding company manages
operations of its banking subsidiaries, it is required to maintain the minimum capital adequacy ratio on aconsolidated basis in the same manner as its subsidiary banks. The FSA provides two sets of capital adequacy
guidelines. One is a set of guidelines applicable to Japanese banks and bank holding companies with their foreign
offices conducting international operations, as defined, and the other is applicable to Japanese banks and bankholding companies that are not engaged in international operations conducted by their foreign offices.
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“BCBS”) of the Bank for International Settlements(“BIS”) sets capital adequacy standards for all internationally active banks to ensure minimum levels of capital.
The Basel Committee revised the 1988 Accord (“Basel I”) in June 2004 and released “International
Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework” (“Basel II”). In addition,
the Group of Central Bank Governors and Heads of Supervision reached an agreement on the new global
regulatory framework, which has been referred to as “Basel III,” in July and September 2010. In December 2010,
the Basel Committee agreed on the details of the Basel III rules. Effective as of March 31, 2013, Basel III was
adopted by the FSA with transitional measures for Japanese banking institutions with international operations
conducted by their foreign offices. MUFG calculated capital ratios as of March 31, 2016 and 2017 in accordancewith Basel III.
Capital Ratios
Basel III, the same as Basel II, is based on “three pillars”: (1) minimum capital requirements, (2) the selfregulation of financial institutions based on supervisory review process, and (3) market discipline through thedisclosure of information. The framework of the 1988 Accord, Basel I is improved and expanded to be included
in “minimum capital requirements” as the first pillar of Basel II and Basel III.
As for the denominator of the capital ratio, the Basel framework provides the following risk-based
approaches and a range of options for determining risk-weighted assets.
“Credit Risk”
The Basel framework provides options for determining the risk-weighted assets for credit risk to allowbanks to select approaches that are most appropriate for their level of risk assessment. Banks choose one ofthree approaches: “Standardized Approach,” “Foundation Internal Ratings-Based Approach” or “Advanced
Internal Ratings-Based Approach (“AIRB”).”

F-102

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)“Market Risk”
In the “Amendment to the Capital Accord to incorporate market risks” of the year 1996, a choice between
two methodologies “the Standardized Measurement Method” and “Internal Models Approach” is permitted.
“Combination of Internal Models Approach and the Standardized Measurement Method” is also allowed
under certain conditions. This is unchanged in Basel III.
“Operational Risk”
Operational risk, which is defined as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes,
people and systems or from external events, is newly added in Basel II. The Basel framework presents threemethods for calculating operational risk capital charges: (i) the Basic Indicator Approach; (ii) the
Standardized Approach; or (iii) Advanced Measurement Approaches (“AMA”). Banks adopt one of thethree approaches to determine the risk-weighted assets for operational risk.
Banks need to obtain approval from their supervisors prior to adopting the following approaches to calculate
capital requirements for each risk:‰

the Advanced Internal Ratings-Based Approach for credit risk‰

the Internal Models Approach for market risk‰

the Standardized Approach and AMA for operational risk

With approval from FSA, MUFG and most of its major subsidiaries adopt AIRB to calculate capitalrequirements for credit risk, adopt the AMA to calculate capital requirements for operational risk, as for market
risk, adopt the Internal Models Approach mainly to calculate general market risk and adopt the Standardized
Measurement Method to calculate specific risk.
The MUFG Group’s proprietary assets do not include trust assets under management and administration in acapacity of agent or fiduciary and, accordingly trust account assets are generally not included in the capital
measure. However, guarantees for trust principal are counted as off-balance sheet items requiring a capital chargein accordance with the capital adequacy guidelines.
Under Basel III, as adopted by the FSA, MUFG’s risk-weighted assets increased, largely reflecting the newcapital charge of the credit valuation adjustment (CVA), the credit-risk-related to asset value correlation
multiplier for large financial institutions, and the 250% risk-weighted threshold items not deducted from
Common Equity Tier 1 capital, as well as the conversion of certain Basel II capital deductions to risk-weighted
assets, such as securitizations.
On the other hand, as for the numerator of the capital ratio, there are three primary regulatory capital ratios
used to assess capital adequacy, Common Equity Tier 1, Tier 1 and Total capital ratios, which are determined by
dividing applicable capital components by risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital is redefined, and consists ofCommon Equity Tier 1 capital and Additional Tier 1 capital. Common Equity Tier 1 capital is a new category ofcapital primarily consisting of common stock, capital surplus, retained earnings, and Accumulated OCI.
Regulatory adjustments including certain intangible fixed assets, such as goodwill, and defined-benefit pension
fund assets will be deducted from Common Equity Tier 1. The amount of adjustments to be deducted will
increase progressively over time. Additional Tier 1 capital generally consists of Basel III compliant preferred
securities, other capital that meets Tier I requirements under Basel II standards, and net of regulatory
adjustments. Subject to transitional measures, adjustments are made to Additional Tier 1 capital for items
F-103

including intangible fixed assets, such as goodwill, and foreign currency translation adjustments, with theamounts of such adjustments to Additional Tier 1 capital progressively decreasing over time. Tier 2 capital
generally consists of Basel III compliant deferred obligations, such as subordinated debts, capital that meet
Tier II requirements under Basel II standards, certain allowances for credit losses and noncontrolling interests in
subsidiaries’ Tier 2 instruments. Subject to transitional measures, certain items including 45% of unrealized
profit on Available-for-sale securities and revaluation of land are deducted from Tier 2 capital with the deduction
amounts progressively decreasing over time. Total capital is defined as the sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital.
Basel III will be adopted in accordance with transition arrangements. Examples of these transition
arrangements include initially lower capital adequacy ratios that will increase progressively up to the Basel III
adequacy levels as issued by BCBS. In addition, individual elements of capital will be phased out progressively
over the same period of time to arrive at a capital base that is consistent with that defined by BCBS in Basel III.
Effective March 31, 2016, the FSA’s capital conservation buffer, countercyclical buffer and the Global
Systematically Important Bank (“G-SIB”), as designated by the FSB, surcharge requirements became applicable
to Japanese banking institutions with international operations conducted through foreign offices. The
requirements are currently being phased in and, as of March 31, 2017, MUFG is required to maintain a capitalconservation buffer of 1.25% and a G-SIB surcharge of 0.75% in addition to the 4.50% minimum Common
Equity Tier 1 capital ratio. As of the same date, no countercyclical buffer is applicable to MUFG. When fully
implemented on March 31, 2019, MUFG will be required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, acountercyclical buffer of up to 2.5%, and a G-SIB surcharge of 1.5%, assuming MUFG will be in Bucket 2 of the
G-SIB list.

Note:
(1) Effective March 31, 2016, the FSA’s capital conservation buffer, countercyclical buffer and G-SIB surcharge requirements became
applicable to Japanese banking institutions with international operations conducted through foreign offices. As a result, in addition to the
4.50% minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio, MUFG is required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of 0.625% and a

F-105

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
G-SIB surcharge of 0.375% as of March 31, 2016 and a capital conservation buffer of 1.25% and a G-SIB surcharge of 0.75% as ofMarch 31, 2017. As of the same date, the countercyclical buffer applicable to MUFG is nil.

MUMSS and other securities subsidiaries in Japan and overseas are also subject to regulatory capitalrequirements of the countries or jurisdictions in which they operate. In Japan, the Financial Instruments andExchange Act and related ordinance require financial instruments firms to maintain a minimum capital ratio of
120% calculated as a percentage of capital accounts less certain fixed assets, as determined in accordance withJapanese GAAP, against amounts equivalent to market, counterparty credit and operations risks. Specificguidelines are issued as a ministerial ordinance which details the definition of essential components of the capitalratios, including capital, deductible fixed asset items and risks, and related measures. Failure to maintain aminimum capital ratio will trigger mandatory regulatory actions. A capital ratio of less than 140% will call for
regulatory reporting and a capital ratio of less than 100% may lead to a suspension of all or part of the businessfor a period of time and cancellation of a registration.
At March 31, 2016, MUMSS’s capital accounts less certain fixed assets of ¥416,123 million on a standalone basis and ¥441,101 million on a consolidated basis, were 278.1% and 279.3% of the total amounts
equivalent to market, counterparty credit and operations risks, respectively. At March 31, 2017, its capital
accounts less certain fixed assets of ¥426,133 million on a stand-alone basis and ¥451,285 million on aconsolidated basis, were 323.0% and 324.7% of the total amounts equivalent to market, counterparty credit andoperations risks, respectively.
Management believes, as of March 31, 2017, that MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUMSS and other regulated
securities subsidiaries met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
United States of America
In the United States of America, MUAH and its banking subsidiary MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (“MUB”),
BTMU’s largest subsidiaries operating outside Japan, are subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the U. S. Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate
certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have amaterial effect on MUAH’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and theregulatory framework for prompt corrective action, MUAH and MUB must meet specific capital guidelines thatinvolve quantitative measures of MUAH’s and MUB’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as
calculated under regulatory accounting practices. MUAH’s capital amounts and MUB’s prompt corrective action
classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings andother factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies such as MUAH.
MUB is subject to laws and regulations that limit the amount of dividends MUB can pay to MUAH.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to help ensure capital adequacy require MUAH and MUB
to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the tables below) of Total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in
the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to quarterly average assets(as defined).
In July 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the other U.S. Federal banking
agencies adopted final rules making significant changes to the U.S. regulatory capital framework for
U.S. banking organizations (U.S. Basel III). The final rules are intended to conform this framework to the BCBS’current international regulatory capital accord (Basel III). These rules replace the U.S. Federal banking agencies’
general risk-based capital rules (commonly known as “Basel I”), advanced approaches rules (commonly known
as “Basel II”) that are applicable to certain large banking organizations (including MUB), and leverage rules, andare subject to certain transition provisions. Among other requirements, the U.S. Basel III rules revise thedefinition of capital, increase minimum capital ratios, and introduce a minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital
F-106

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
ratio of 4.5% and a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% (for a total minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of
7.0%) and a potential countercyclical buffer of up to 2.5%, which would be imposed by regulators at their discretion
if it is determined that a period of excessive credit growth is contributing to an increase in financial institution
systemic risk; mandate a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% and introduce, for large and internationally active bank holding
companies, a Tier 1 Supplementary Leverage Ratio that is currently set at 3% and which incorporates off-balance
sheet exposures; revise Basel I rules for calculating risk-weighted assets under a standardized approach; modify theexisting Basel II advanced approaches rules for calculating risk-weighted assets under U.S. Basel III; and eliminate,
for advanced approaches institutions, over a four-year phase-in period beginning on January 1, 2014, theAccumulated OCI or loss exclusion that had applied under Basel I and Basel II rules.
As a result of the Federal Reserve’s approval of MUAH’s request to opt out of the advanced approaches
methodology in the fourth quarter of 2014, MUAH calculated its regulatory capital ratios under U.S. Basel I rules
at December 31, 2014 and became subject to the U.S. Basel III standardized approach on January 1, 2015, withcertain provisions subject to phase-in periods. As permitted for institutions not subject to the advanced
approaches methodology, MUAH made a one-time permanent election in the first quarter of 2015 to exclude
certain components of the Accumulated OCI from its regulatory capital calculations. MUB continues to be
subject to the advanced approaches rules. Advanced approaches institutions were required to apply U.S. Basel III
rules beginning on January 1, 2014. The U.S. Basel III rules are scheduled to be substantially phased in by
January 1, 2019. Effective June 30, 2015, MUAH updated the methodologies applied to the calculation of its
regulatory capital ratios due to recent regulatory guidance, which clarified the treatment of certain off-balance
sheet credit exposures. These methodologies were applied to MUAH’s capital ratios and increased the ratios byapproximately 50 basis points. This change did not affect MUB’s ratios as the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of
the Currency (“OCC”) had previously adopted this guidance.
As required under U.S. Basel III rules, the 2.5% capital conservation buffer is being implemented on aphased-in basis in equal increments of 0.625% per year over a four-year period that commenced on January 1,
2016. MUAH and MUB would satisfy the minimum capital requirements including the capital conservationbuffer on a fully phased-in basis if those requirements were effective as of September 30, 2016.
The figures on the table below are calculated according to U.S. Basel III as of December 31, 2015 and 2016.

Management believes, as of December 31, 2016, that MUAH and MUB met all capital adequacy
requirements to which they are subject.
As of December 31, 2015 and 2016, the notification from the OCC categorized MUB as “well capitalized”
under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well capitalized,” MUB must
maintain a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 10% as of December 31, 2015 and 2016, a Tier I risk-based
capital ratio of 8% as of December 31, 2015 and 2016, a Tier I capital to quarterly average assets of 5% as ofDecember 31, 2015 and 2016, and Common Equity Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 6.5% as of December 31,
2015 and 2016, as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management
believes have changed MUB’s category.

24. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The MUFG Group uses various derivative financial instruments both for trading purposes and for purposes
other than trading (primarily risk management purposes) in the normal course of business to meet the financial
needs of its customers, as a source of revenue and to manage its exposures to a variety of risks.
Market risk is the possibility that future changes in market indices make the financial instruments lessvaluable. The MUFG Group is a party to derivative financial instruments, including swaps, forwards, options andother types of derivatives, dealing primarily with market risk associated with interest rates, foreign currencies,
equity and commodity prices, and credit risk associated with counterparty’s nonperformance of transactions.
Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may result from a counterparty’s failure to perform according to theterms and conditions of the contract, which may exceed the value of underlying collateral. To reduce credit risk,
the MUFG Group may require collateral or guarantees based on a case-by-case assessment of creditworthiness ofeach customer and evaluation of the instrument. The MUFG Group also uses master netting agreements in orderto mitigate overall counterparty credit risk.
Trading Activities
The MUFG Group’s trading activities include dealing and customer accommodation activities. As part of its
trading activities, the MUFG Group offers a variety of derivative financial instruments for managing interest rate
and foreign exchange risk to its domestic and foreign corporate and financial institution customers. The MUFG
Group also enters into other types of derivative transactions, including equity and credit-related contracts, for its
own account.
Risk Management Activities
As part of the MUFG Group’s risk management activities, asset and liability management is viewed as oneof the methods for the MUFG Group to manage its interest rate exposures on interest-bearing assets andliabilities. The MUFG Group uses certain derivative financial instruments in order to minimize significant
unplanned fluctuations in earnings that are caused by interest rate volatility. For example, an increase or adecrease in interest income and interest expense on hedged variable rate assets and liabilities as a result ofinterest rate fluctuations are expected to substantially offset the variability in earnings by gains and losses on thederivative instruments that are linked to these hedged assets and liabilities.
The MUFG Group enters into interest rate swaps and other contracts primarily to manage the interest raterisk of its loans, investment securities and deposit liabilities. Interest rate contracts, which are generally
non-leveraged generic interest rate and basis swaps, options and futures, allow the MUFG Group to effectively
manage its interest rate risk position. Option contracts primarily consist of caps, floors, swaptions and options on
index futures. Futures contracts used for asset and liability management activities are primarily index futures
providing for cash payments based upon the movement of an underlying rate index.
The MUFG Group enters into forward exchange contracts, currency swaps and other contracts in response
to currency exposures resulting from on-balance sheet assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies inorder to limit the net foreign exchange position by currency to an appropriate level.
Derivatives Designated as Hedges
The MUFG Group adopts hedging strategies and applies hedge accounting to certain derivative transactions
entered by MUAH whose fiscal period ends on December 31.
F-110

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Cash Flow Hedges
MUAH uses interest rate swaps to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in thedesignated benchmark interest rate on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) indexed loans, and to alesser extent, to hedge interest rate risk on rollover debt.
MUAH used interest rate swaps with a notional amount of ¥1,764.8 billion at December 31, 2016 to hedge
the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rate on LIBOR
indexed loans. To the extent effective, payments received (or paid) under the swap contract offset fluctuations ininterest income on loans caused by changes in the relevant LIBOR index. MUAH used interest rate swaps with anotional amount of ¥36 billion at December 31, 2016 to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows attributable tochanges in the designated benchmark interest rate on LIBOR indexed short-term borrowings. At December 31,
2016, the weighted average remaining life of the active cash flow hedges was 3.67 years.
For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instruments is reported as acomponent of OCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash
flows are recognized in net interest income. Gains and losses representing hedge ineffectiveness are recognized
in non-interest expense in the period in which they arise. At December 31, 2016, MUAH expects to reclassify
approximately ¥9.8 billion of income from Accumulated OCI to net interest income during the year ending
December 31, 2017. This amount could differ from amounts actually realized due to changes in interest rates,
hedge terminations and the addition of other hedges subsequent to December 31, 2016.
Fair Value Hedges
MUAH engages in an interest rate hedging strategy in which one or more interest rate swaps are associatedwith a specified interest-bearing liability, in order to convert the liability from a fixed rate to a floating rate
instrument. This strategy mitigates the changes in fair value of the hedged liability caused by changes in thedesignated benchmark interest rate, U.S. dollar LIBOR.
For fair value hedges, any ineffectiveness is recognized in non-interest expense in the period in which itarises. The change in the fair value of the hedged item and the hedging instrument, to the extent completely
effective, offsets with no impact on earnings. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, MUAH
recorded gains on the hedging instruments and losses on the hedged liability, both of which were less than
¥1 billion.

Features embedded in other non-derivative hybrid contracts are separated from the host contracts andmeasured at fair value when they are not clearly and closely related to the host contracts and meet the definitionof a derivative. The change in the fair value of such an embedded derivative is recognized currently in earnings,
unless it qualifies as a hedge. The fair value of the embedded derivative is presented in the accompanying

Credit Derivatives
The MUFG Group enters into credit derivatives to manage its credit risk exposure, to facilitate clienttransactions, and for proprietary trading purposes, under which they provide the counterparty protection against
the risk of default on a set of debt obligations issued by a specified reference entity or entities. Types of suchcredit derivatives primarily include single name credit default swaps, index and basket credit default swaps. The
MUFG Group will have to perform under a credit derivative if a credit event as defined under the contract
occurs. Such credit events include bankruptcy, dissolution or insolvency of the referenced entity, default andrestructuring of the obligations of the referenced entity. The MUFG Group’s counterparties are banks, brokerdealers, insurance and other financial institutions. The contractual or notional amounts of these credit derivatives
represent the maximum potential amounts of future payments without consideration of possible recoveries underrecourse provisions or from collateral held or pledged.

Notes:(1) Fair value amounts are shown on a gross basis prior to cash collateral or counterparty netting.
(2) The MUFG Group considers ratings of Baa3/BBB- or higher to meet the definition of investment grade.
(3) Other credit derivatives primarily consist of total return swaps.

Single name credit default swaps—A credit default swap protects the buyer against the loss of principal on abond or loan in case of a default by the issuer. The protection buyer pays a premium to the MUFG Group and isprotected for the period of the credit default swap. As the seller of protection, the MUFG Group in turn will haveto perform under a credit default swap if a credit event as defined under the contracts occurs. In order to provide
an indication of the current payment/performance risk of the credit default swaps, the external credit ratings,
primarily those provided by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”), of the underlying reference entity of thecredit default swaps are disclosed.
Index and basket credit default swaps—Index and basket credit default swaps are credit default swaps thatreference multiple names through underlying baskets or portfolios of single name credit default swaps. Typically,in the event of a default on one of the underlying names, the MUFG Group, as the seller of protection, will haveto pay a pro-rata portion of the total notional amount of the credit default index or basket contract. In order toprovide an indication of the current payment/performance risk of these credit default swaps, BTMU and MUSHD
rating scale based upon the entity’s internal ratings, which generally correspond to ratings defined by primarily
Moody’s and S&P, of the underlying reference entities comprising the basket or index were calculated anddisclosed.

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
The MUFG Group may economically hedge its exposure to credit derivatives by entering into offsetting
derivative contracts. The carrying value and notional amounts of credit protection sold in which the MUFG
Group held purchased protection with identical underlying referenced entities were approximately ¥22 billionand ¥2,612 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2016, and approximately ¥33 billion and ¥2,327 billion,
respectively, at March 31, 2017.
Collateral is held by the MUFG Group in relation to these instruments. Collateral requirements are
determined at the counterparty level and cover numerous transactions and products as opposed to individual
contracts.
Credit Risk, Liquidity Risk and Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
Certain of the MUFG Group’s derivative instruments contain provisions that require the MUFG Group’s
debt to maintain an investment grade credit rating from each of the major credit rating agencies. If the MUFG
Group’s debt were to fall below investment grade, it would be in violation of these provisions, and thecounterparties to the derivative instruments could request payments on early termination or demand immediateand ongoing full overnight collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The aggregate fairvalue of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position atMarch 31, 2016 and 2017 was approximately ¥2.0 trillion and ¥1.0 trillion, respectively, for which the MUFG
Group has posted collateral of approximately ¥370 billion and ¥251 billion, respectively, in the normal course ofbusiness. The amount of additional collateral and early termination amount which could be requested if the
MUFG Group’s debt falls below investment grade was ¥156 billion and ¥85 billion, respectively, as of March 31,
2016 and ¥81 billion and ¥79 billion, respectively, as of March 31, 2017.
25. OBLIGATIONS UNDER GUARANTEES AND OTHER OFF-BALANCE SHEET INSTRUMENTS
Obligations under Guarantees
The MUFG Group provides customers with a variety of guarantees and similar arrangements, including
standby letters of credit, financial and performance guarantees, credit protection, liquidity facilities, otheroff-balance sheet credit-related support and similar instruments, in order to meet the customers’ financial andbusiness needs. The tables below present the contractual or notional amounts of such guarantees at March 31,
2016 and 2017. The contractual or notional amounts of these instruments represent the maximum potential
amounts of future payments without consideration of possible recoveries under recourse provisions or fromcollateral held or pledged.
For certain types of derivatives, such as written interest rate options and written currency options, themaximum potential future payments are unlimited. Accordingly, it is impracticable to estimate the maximum
potential amount of future payments. As such, the notional amounts of the related contracts, other than the
maximum potential payments, are included in the table.
The MUFG Group mitigates its credit risk exposure resulting from guarantees by utilizing various
techniques, including collateralization in the form of cash, securities, and real estate properties based on
management’s credit assessment of the guaranteed parties and the related credit profile. In order to manage thecredit risk exposure, the MUFG Group also enters into sub-participation contracts with third parties who willfund a portion of the credit facility and bear its share of the loss to be incurred in the event that the customer fails
to fulfill its obligations. The following table includes guarantees of ¥378.2 billion and ¥390.4 billion atMarch 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively, which are syndicated out to third parties. The contractual or notionalamounts summarized in the following table do not necessarily bear any direct relationship to the future actual

Note:(1) Credit derivatives sold by the MUFG Group are excluded from this presentation.

Nature of Guarantee Contracts
Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees generally include an obligation of an issuer or a designatedthird-party to guarantee the performance of the customer to the beneficiary under the terms of contracts such as
lending contracts and other similar financial transactions. The MUFG Group is required to make payments to theguaranteed parties in the event that the customers fail to fulfill the obligations under the contracts. The guarantees
whose contractual maturities are over 5 years are mainly comprised of guarantees of housing loans.
Performance guarantees are contracts that contingently require the MUFG Group to make payments to theguaranteed party based on another party’s failure to perform under an obligating agreement, except financial
obligation. For example, performance guarantees include guarantees of completion of construction projects.
Derivative instruments that are deemed to be included within the definition of guarantees as prescribed in
the guidance on guarantees include certain written options and credit default swaps. In order for the MUFG
Group to determine if those derivative instruments meet the definition of guarantees as prescribed in the guidanceon guarantees, the MUFG Group has to track whether the counterparties are actually exposed to losses that will
result from the adverse change in the underlyings. Accordingly, the MUFG Group has disclosed information on
all credit default swaps and certain written options for which there is a possibility of meeting the definition ofguarantees as prescribed in the guidance on guarantees, regardless of whether the counterparties have assets or
liabilities related to the underlyings of the derivatives. However, credit derivatives sold by the MUFG Group at
March 31, 2016 and 2017 are excluded from this presentation, as they are disclosed in Note 24.

F-117

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Liabilities of trust accounts represent the trustee’s potential responsibility for temporary payments tocreditors of liabilities of trust accounts making use of funds of the MUFG Group, unless there are certain
agreements with trust creditors that have provisions limiting the MUFG Group’s exposure as a trustee to the trust
account assets. A trust may incur external liabilities to obtain certain services during the terms of the trust
arrangement. While, in principle, any liabilities of a trust are payable by the trust account and its beneficiaries, atrustee’s responsibility may be interpreted to encompass temporary payments for the trust account liabilities
when the trust account does not maintain sufficient liquidity available for such liabilities unless the agreementwith trust creditors limits the trustee’s exposure to the trust account assets. At March 31, 2016 and 2017, there
were liabilities of ¥8,636 billion and ¥9,561 billion, respectively, in the segregated records of trust accounts
including the amounts related to liabilities with provisions limiting trustee responsibility. Liabilities of trust
accounts principally included obligations to return collateral under security lending transactions. The MUFG
Group has experienced no significant losses on such responsibilities and its exposure to the risk associated withthe temporary payments is judged to be remote because trust account liabilities are generally covered by thecorresponding trust account assets; the MUFG Group continuously monitors the liabilities of trust accounts andassesses the trust account’s ability to perform its obligations to prevent any unfavorable outcomes; and the
MUFG Group claims its recourse for its temporary payments against the trust account assets and thebeneficiaries.
Carrying AmountAt March 31, 2016 and 2017, the carrying amounts of the liabilities related to guarantees and similar
instruments set forth above were ¥1,650,043 million and ¥1,329,475 million, respectively, which are included in
Other liabilities and Trading account liabilities. The guarantees and similar instruments comprising the largest
components of the total were options sold in the amount of ¥1,606,885 million and ¥1,290,563 million as ofMarch 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. Credit derivatives sold by the MUFG Group at March 31, 2016 and 2017
are excluded from this presentation, as they are disclosed in Note 24. In addition, Other liabilities also include anallowance for off-balance sheet instruments of ¥36,466 million and ¥79,803 million at March 31, 2016 and 2017,
respectively, related to these transactions.
Performance Risk
The MUFG Group monitors performance risk of its guarantees using the same credit rating system utilized
for estimating probabilities of default with its loan portfolio. The MUFG Group’s credit rating system isconsistent with both the method of evaluating credit risk under Basel III and those of third-party credit rating
agencies. On certain underlying referenced credits or entities, ratings are not available. Such referenced credits
are included in the “Not rated” category in the following tables.

F-118

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Presented in the tables below is the maximum potential amount of future payments classified based uponinternal credit ratings as of March 31, 2016 and 2017. The determination of the maximum potential future
payments is based on the notional amount of the guarantees without consideration of possible recoveries underrecourse provisions or from collateral held or pledged. Such amounts do not represent the anticipated losses, ifany, on these guarantees.

Notes:(1) Borrowers classified as Close Watch represent those that require close monitoring as the borrower has begun to exhibit elements ofpotential concern with respect to its business performance and financial condition, the borrower has begun to exhibit elements of serious
concern with respect to its business performance and financial condition, including business problems requiring long-term solutions, orthe borrower’s loans are TDRs or loans contractually past due 90 days or more for special reasons.
(2) Borrowers classified as Likely to become Bankrupt or Legally/Virtually Bankrupt represent those that have a higher probability ofdefault than those categorized as Close Watch due to serious debt repayment problems with poor progress in achieving restructuring
plans, the borrower being considered virtually bankrupt with no prospects for an improvement in business operations, or the borrower
being legally bankrupt with no prospects for continued business operations because of non-payment, suspension of business, voluntaryliquidation or filing for legal liquidation.

The guarantees the MUFG Group does not classify based upon internal credit ratings are as follows.
The MUFG Group records all derivative contracts at fair value. Aggregate market risk limits have been
established, and market risk measures are routinely monitored against these limits. The MUFG Group also
manages its exposure to these derivative contracts through a variety of risk mitigation strategies, including, but
not limited to, offsetting economic hedge positions. The MUFG Group expects the risk of loss to be remote andbelieves that the notional amounts of the derivative contracts generally exceed its exposure.
Liabilities of trust accounts represent the trustee’s potential responsibility for temporary payments tocreditors of liabilities of trust accounts using funds of the MUFG Group. The MUFG Group has experienced nosignificant losses on such responsibilities and its exposure to the risk associated with the temporary payments isjudged to be remote because trust account liabilities are generally covered by the corresponding trust accountassets.
F-119

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
The MUFG Group conducts securities lending transactions for institutional customers as a fully disclosed
agent. At times, securities lending indemnifications are issued to guarantee that a security lending customer will
be made whole in the event the borrower does not return the security subject to the lending agreement andcollateral held is insufficient to cover the market value of the security. All lending transactions are collateralized,
primarily by cash. At March 31, 2017, the MUFG Group had no exposure that would require it to pay under thissecurities lending indemnification, since the collateral market value exceeds the fair value of securities lent.
Other Off-balance Sheet Instruments
In addition to obligations under guarantees and similar arrangements set forth above, the MUFG Groupissues other off-balance sheet instruments to meet the financial needs of its customers and for purposes other than
trading. Such off-balance sheet instruments consist of lending-related commitments, including commitments toextend credit and commercial letters of credit that the MUFG Group provides to meet the financing needs of its
customers. Once the MUFG Group issues these off-balance sheet instruments, the MUFG Group is required toextend credit to or make certain payments to the customers or beneficiaries specified pursuant to the underlying
contracts unless otherwise provided in the contracts. Since many of these commitments expire without being
drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. At March 31,
2017, approximately 66% of these commitments will expire within one year, 31% from one year to five years
and 3% after five years. The table below presents the contractual amounts with regard to such instruments at
March 31, 2016 and 2017:

Commitments to extend credit, which generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses, arelegally binding agreements to lend to customers. Commitments are different from guarantees in that thecommitments are generally revocable or have provisions that enable the MUFG Group to avoid payments in theevent of violations of any conditions of the contracts and certain deterioration of the potential borrowers’
financial condition.
Commercial letters of credit, generally used for trade transactions, are typically secured by the underlying
goods. The MUFG Group continually monitors the type and amount of collateral and other securities, andrequires counterparties to provide additional collateral or guarantors as necessary.
Commitments to make investments are legally binding contracts to make additional contributions tocorporate recovery or private equity investment funds in accordance with limited partnership agreements. Someof these funds, in which the MUFG Group has significant variable interests, are described in Note 26.
26. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIESIn the normal course of business, the MUFG Group has financial interests and other contractual obligations
in various entities which may be deemed to be VIEs such as asset-backed conduits, various investment funds,
special purpose entities created for structured financing, repackaged instruments, entities created for the
securitization of the MUFG Group’s assets, and trust arrangements.

Notes:(1) The total assets of investment funds decreased by ¥1,120,091 million and total liabilities increased by ¥3,327 million on April 1, 2016
due to the adoption of the new consolidation guidance. The adoption of the new guidance resulted in changes to the classification ofcertain investment funds that were previously classified as consolidated VIEs and are now classified as consolidated voting interest
entities as well as changes to the consolidation status of certain investment funds. The amounts of decreased assets and increased
liabilities disclosed above have been restated from ¥1,141,181 million and ¥1,381 million, respectively, that were disclosed within thecondensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended September 30, 2016. This revision did not impact the consolidatedbalance sheets or consolidated statements of income.

Maximum exposure to loss on each type of entity is determined based on the carrying amount of any
on-balance sheet assets and any off-balance sheet liabilities held, net of any recourse liabilities. Therefore, themaximum exposure to loss represents the maximum loss the MUFG Group could possibly incur at each balance
sheet date and does not reflect the likelihood of such a loss being incurred. The difference between the amount of
on-balance sheet assets and the maximum exposure to loss primarily comprises the remaining undrawn
commitments.
In February 2015, the FASB issued new guidance which amends the consolidation analysis under thecurrent consolidation guidance. The amendments change the VIE analysis for limited partnerships and similar
legal entities, the criteria for evaluating whether fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider are a variableinterest, the effect of fee arrangements and related parties on the primary beneficiary determination, and rescind
the indefinite deferral provision that affects the consolidation evaluation for certain investment funds. The
MUFG group adopted this new accounting guidance on April 1, 2016, which resulted in the consolidation anddeconsolidation of certain investment funds. The net increase in the MUFG Group’s consolidated assets,
liabilities and Noncontrolling interests, were ¥628,236 million, ¥32,254 million and ¥595,982 million,
respectively, as of April 1, 2016. The cumulative effect on retained earnings was a decrease of ¥3,873 million
upon the adoption.
Analysis of Each Transaction Category
Asset-Backed Conduits
This category primarily comprises the following:Multi-Seller Conduits (MUFG-sponsored Asset-Backed Commercial Paper (“ABCP”) Conduits and OtherABCP Conduits)
The MUFG Group administers several conduits under asset-backed financing programs under which theconduits purchase financial assets, primarily trade accounts receivable, from the MUFG Group’s customers by
issuing short-term financing instruments, primarily commercial paper, to third-party investors. Under the assetbacked financing programs, the MUFG Group acts as an agent for the conduits, which enter into agreements with
the MUFG Group’s customers where the customers transfer financial assets to the conduits in exchange formonetary consideration. The MUFG Group also underwrites commercial paper for the conduits that is secured by
the assets held by them and provides program-wide liquidity and credit enhancement facilities to the conduits.
The MUFG Group receives fees related to the services it provides to the conduits and the program-wide liquidity
and credit enhancement. The MUFG Group considers itself to be the primary beneficiary of the multi-seller
conduits because, as an agent and sponsor, the MUFG Group has the power to direct activities of the conduitsthat most significantly impact the conduits’ economic performance and also has the obligation to absorb losses of
the conduits that could potentially be significant to the conduits through the program-wide liquidity and credit
enhancement. Consequently, the MUFG Group consolidates the conduits.
In addition to the entities described above, the MUFG Group participates as a provider of financing toseveral conduits that are administered by third parties. Most of these conduits are established under a multi-seller
asset-backed financing program and the MUFG Group provides financing along with other financial institutions.
With respect to these conduits, the MUFG Group is not considered as the primary beneficiary because the
MUFG Group’s participation in the conduits is only to provide financing along with other third-party financial
institutions and it does not have the power to direct the activities of the conduits. Consequently, the
MUFG Group does not consolidate the conduits.

F-124

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Asset-Backed Conduits (MUFG-sponsored Asset-Backed Loan (“ABL”) Programs and Other Programs)
The MUFG Group administers several conduits under asset-backed financing programs where the MUFG
Group provides financing to fund the conduits’ purchases of financial assets, comprising primarily trade accounts
receivable, from its customers. The MUFG Group acts as an agent and sponsor for the conduits, which enter into
agreements with the MUFG Group’s customers where the customers transfer assets to the conduits in exchange
for monetary consideration. In most cases the MUFG Group is the sole provider of financing that is secured by
the assets held by the conduits. The MUFG Group considers itself to be the primary beneficiary of the conduits
because, as an agent and sponsor for the conduits, the MUFG Group has the power to direct activities of the
conduits, such as selection of the assets to be purchased and condition for purchases, and debt collection from theoriginal obligors, that most significantly impact the conduits’ economic performance, and also has the obligation
to absorb losses of the conduits that could potentially be significant to the conduits through financing it provides.
Consequently, the MUFG Group consolidates the conduits.
In addition, the MUFG Group is involved with entities, which take in most cases the form of a trust, where
originators of financial assets, which primarily comprise lease receivables, entrust the assets with trust banks andreceive beneficial certificates of trusts in exchange. The originators then transfer the beneficiary certificates tothe MUFG Group in exchange for cash. The originators of the financial assets entrusted continue to be involvedin the assets as servicers. Because the originators are deemed to have the power to direct activities of the entities
that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance through their role as a servicer, the MUFG
Group is not considered as the primary beneficiary of these entities. Consequently, the MUFG Group does notconsolidate these entities.
The MUFG Group also participates as a provider of financing to the ABL programs that are managed bythird parties. The MUFG Group is not considered as the primary beneficiary of the entities used in these
programs as the MUFG Group’s participation in the entities is only to provide financing along with other third
parties and it does not have the power to direct the activities of the entities. Consequently, the MUFG Group does
not consolidate the entities used in these programs.
Investment Funds
This category primarily comprises the following:
Corporate Recovery Funds
These entities are established by fund managers, which are unrelated to the MUFG Group, for the purposeof investing in debt or equity instruments issued by distressed companies. After investment, the fund managers
work closely with the management of the entities and attempt to enhance corporate value by various means
including corporate restructuring and reorganization. Their exit strategies include, among others, sales to others
and initial public offerings.
Typically, these entities take the form of a limited partnership which is entirely funded by general andlimited partner interests. These partnerships are considered as VIEs unless the limited partners hold substantive
kick-out rights or participating rights.
The MUFG Group mostly serves as a limited partner in corporate recovery funds that are considered as
VIEs, and does not have the power to direct the activities of these funds that most significantly impact theeconomic performance of these funds. Therefore, the MUFG Group does not consider itself to be the primary
beneficiary of these funds and does not consolidate them.
F-125

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Private Equity Funds
The MUFG Group is involved in venture capital funds that are established by either the MUFG Group’s
entities or fund managers unrelated to the MUFG Group. These entities have specific investment objectives inconnection with their acquisition of equity interests, such as providing financing and other support to start-up
businesses, medium and small entities in a particular geographical area, and to companies with certain
technology or companies in a high-growth industry.
These entities typically take the form of a limited partnership and usually are entirely funded by general andlimited partner interests. These partnerships are considered as VIEs unless the limited partners hold substantive
kick-out rights or participating rights.
The MUFG Group participates in these partnerships as a general partner or limited partner. The MUFG
Group consolidates these funds, which are considered as VIEs, if the MUFG Group has the power to direct theactivities of these funds that most significantly impact the economic performance of these funds, and also has theobligation to absorb losses of these funds that could potentially be significant to these funds or the right toreceive benefits from these funds that could potentially be significant to these funds.
Investment Trusts
The MUFG Group invests in investment trusts that are professionally managed collective investment
schemes which pool money from many investors and invest in, among others, equity and debt securities. Most ofthese funds take the form of a trust where there is a separation in investment decisions, which is assumed by aninvestment manager who has no investment in a trust, and ownership through beneficiary interests issued by atrust are owned by investors. Therefore, these investment trusts are considered as VIEs. The MUFG Group
consolidates these funds if the MUFG Group has the power to direct the activities of these funds that mostsignificantly impact the economic performance of these funds, and also has the obligation to absorb losses ofthese funds that could potentially be significant to these funds or the right to receive benefits from these funds
that could potentially be significant to these funds.
Buy-out Financing Vehicles
The MUFG Group provides financing to buy-out vehicles. The buy-out vehicles are established by equity
investments from, among others, private equity funds or the management of target companies for the purpose ofpurchasing the equity shares of target companies. Along with other financial institutions, the MUFG Group
provides financing to the buy-out vehicles in the form of loans. While the buy-out vehicles’ equity is normally
substantive in its amount and the rights and obligations associated with it, in some cases, the vehicles have equity
that is insufficient to absorb expected variability primarily because the amount provided by equity investors isnominal in nature. These vehicles engage in non-investment activities, and are considered as VIEs. In most cases,
the MUFG Group’s participation in these vehicles is only to provide financing to the vehicles, and the power todirect the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the vehicles is held by the
management of target companies. As a result, the MUFG Group is not considered as the primary beneficiary ofthese vehicles and does not consolidate them.
Other Investment Funds
The MUFG Group’s investments in VIEs through MUAH primarily consist of equity investments in
low-income housing credit (“LIHC”) structures, designed to generate a return primarily through the realization offederal tax credits. MUAH considers itself as the primary beneficiary of certain types of LIHC investments.
F-126

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
LIHC Unguaranteed Syndicated Investment Funds
MUAH creates the investment funds, serves as the managing investor member, and sells limited investor
member interests to third parties. MUAH receives benefits through income from the structuring of these funds,
servicing fees for managing the funds and, as an investor member, tax benefits and tax credits to reduce the
MUAH tax liability. MUAH considers itself to be the primary beneficiary and consolidates them upon adoptionof the current guidance because, as a sponsor and managing member of the funds, it has the power to direct
activities that most significantly impact the funds’ economic performance and also has the obligation to absorb
losses of the funds that could potentially be significant to the funds.
LIHC Guaranteed Syndicated Investment Funds
MUAH also forms limited liability companies, which in turn invest in LIHC operating partnerships, tocreate LIHC guaranteed syndicated investment funds. Interests in these funds are sold to third parties who pay a
premium for a guaranteed return. MUAH earns structuring fees from the sale of these funds and asset
management fees. MUAH serves as the funds’ sponsor and non-member asset manager, and also guarantees aminimum rate of return throughout the investment term, therefore, it directs the activities that most significantly
impact the funds’ economic performance and also has an obligation to absorb losses pertaining to its minimum
rate of return guarantee to investors. Therefore, the MUFG Group is considered as the primary beneficiary ofthese funds and consolidates them.
Special Purpose Entities Created for Structured Financing
This category primarily comprises the following:
Leveraged Leasing Vehicles
These entities are established to raise funds to purchase or build equipment and machinery including, among
others, commercial vessels, passenger and cargo aircraft, and production equipment for the purpose of leasing
them to lessees who use the equipment and machinery as part of their business operations. These entities
typically take the form of a limited partnership or a special purpose company where they fund their purchases ofequipment and machinery via senior and subordinate financing. When entities take the form of a limited
partnership, these entities are considered as VIEs unless limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights orparticipating rights. The entities considered as VIEs are typically funded only by senior financing or there is aguarantee provided to the senior financing by parties unrelated to those providing the senior financing. In mostcases, the MUFG Group participates in the senior financing and does not participate in the subordinate financing
or provide guarantees. Generally, because the MUFG Group’s participation in these entities is only to provide
financing, it does not have the power to direct the activities of the entities that most significantly impact theeconomic performance of the entities. Therefore, the MUFG Group does not consider itself to be the primary
beneficiary of these entities and does not consolidate them, except for limited circumstances where the MUFG
Group is directly involved with the structuring of the transaction and has the power to direct the activities of theentities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entities.
Project Financing Vehicles
These entities are established to raise funds in connection with, among others, production of natural
resources, construction and development of urban infrastructure (including power plants and grids, highways andports), and the development of real estate properties or complexes. These projects typically involve special
purpose companies which issue senior and subordinate financing to raise funds in connection with the various
projects. The subordinate financing is usually provided by parties that will ultimately make use of the assets
F-127

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
constructed or developed. By contrast, the senior financing is typically provided by financial institutions,
including the MUFG Group. Because the MUFG Group’s participation in these entities is only to provide
financing, it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic
performance of these entities. Therefore, the MUFG Group is not considered as the primary beneficiary of these
entities and does not consolidate them.
Sale-and-Leaseback Vehicles
The MUFG Group is involved with vehicles that acquire assets, primarily real estate, from the MUFG
Group’s customers and other unrelated parties where the sellers of the assets continue to use the assets throughleaseback agreements. These vehicles typically take the form of a limited partnership, and considered as VIEs
unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. The subordinated financing ofthese vehicles considered as VIEs is usually provided by the sellers of the assets, with the MUFG Group
providing senior financing for the vehicles. Because the MUFG Group’s participation in these vehicles is only toprovide senior financing, it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact theeconomic performance of these vehicles. Therefore, the MUFG Group is not considered as the primary
beneficiary and does not consolidate them.
Securitization of Client Real Estate Properties
These entities are established for the purpose of securitizing real estate properties held by the MUFG
Group’s customers. In most cases, these entities take the form of a limited partnership or a special purpose
company. When entities take the form of a limited partnership, these entities are considered as VIEs unless thelimited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. The entities considered as VIEs are
typically funded by senior and subordinated financing where the original owners of the real estate properties
provide the subordinated financing, primarily in the form of partnership interests or subordinated notes, andfinancial institutions, including the MUFG Group, provide senior financing in the form of senior loans. Because
the MUFG Group’s participation in these vehicles is only to provide a portion of senior financing, it does nothave the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these entities.
Therefore, the MUFG Group is not considered as the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate these entities.
Repackaged Instruments
This category primarily comprises the following:
Investments in Financially-Engineered Products
The MUFG Group is involved in special purpose entities that have been established to issue financial
products through the engineering and repackaging of existing financial instruments such as collateralized debt
obligations (“CDOs”) and synthetic CDOs. These entities are considered as VIEs because the holders of theequity investment at risk do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact theireconomic performance. These entities are generally arranged and managed by parties that are not related to the
MUFG Group. The MUFG Group’s involvement with the entities arranged and managed by third parties is forinvestment purposes. In these cases, the MUFG Group participates as one of many other investors and the MUFG
Group typically holds investments in senior tranches or tranches with high credit ratings. Therefore, the MUFG
Group does not have the power to direct activities of the entities that most significantly impact the entities’
economic performance, and thus is not considered as the primary beneficiary of these entities and does notconsolidate these entities.
In certain instances, special purpose entities have been established and are managed by the MUFG Group.
The MUFG Group’s involvement includes establishing and arranging the transaction and underwriting securities
F-128

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
issued by the entities to general investors. For these entities, the MUFG Group has the power to direct activities
that most significantly impact the economic performance and it has the obligation to absorb losses or receive
benefits that could potentially be significant to the entities. As such, the MUFG Group considers itself as theprimary beneficiary of these entities and consolidates them.
Investments in Securitized Financial Instruments
The MUFG Group holds investments in special purpose entities that issue securitized financial products.
The assets held by the entities include credit card receivables and residential mortgage loans. These entities are
established and managed by parties that are unrelated to the MUFG Group and the MUFG Group’s involvementwith these entities is for its own investment purposes. In all cases, the MUFG Group participates as one of manyother investors and the MUFG Group does not have the power to direct activities of the entities that mostsignificantly impact the entities’ economic performance. Therefore, the MUFG Group is not considered as theprimary beneficiary of these entities and does not consolidate them.
Securitization of the MUFG Group’s Assets
This category primarily comprises the following:
Securitization for issuing interests or financing
The MUFG Group establishes entities to securitize its own financial assets that include, among others,
corporate and retail loans and lease receivables. The entities used for securitization, which typically take the formof a special purpose company or a trust, are established by the MUFG Group and, in most cases, issue senior andsubordinate interests or financing. After securitization, the MUFG Group typically continues to service
securitized assets as a servicer. The MUFG Group may also retain subordinate interests or financing or otherinterests. The MUFG Group is considered as the primary beneficiary and consolidates the entities used for
securitization since it has the obligation to absorb losses through subordinate interests, and also has the power for
determining and implementing policies as servicer that give it the ability to manage the entities’ assets that
become delinquent or are in default in order to improve the economic performance of the entities.
Eligible beneficiary interests in housing loan trusts
The MUFG Group establishes trusts, which acquire the MUFG Group’s housing loans and in turn issue
beneficiary interests to the MUFG Group, to pledge these beneficiary interests as collateral for borrowings fromthe Bank of Japan, as a result of the decision by the Bank of Japan on June 30, 2016 to accept these beneficial
interests as collateral in the same way as it does for Japanese national government bonds. The MUFG Group is
considered as the primary beneficiary and consolidates the trusts since it has the obligation to absorb losses
through beneficiary interests, and also has the power for determining and implementing policies as servicer thatgive it the ability to manage housing loans owned by the trusts that become delinquent or are in default in orderto improve the economic performance of the trusts.
Trust Arrangements
The MUFG Group offers, primarily through MUTB, a variety of trust products and services including
securities investment trusts, pension trusts and trusts used as securitization vehicles. In a typical trust
arrangement, however, the MUFG Group manages and administers assets on behalf of the customers in an
agency, fiduciary and trust capacity and does not assume risks associated with the entrusted assets. The trusts are
generally considered as VIEs because the trust beneficiaries, who provide all of the equity at risk, usually do nothave power to direct the activities that most significantly impact its economic performance in the arrangements.
The MUFG Group, however, is not considered as the primary beneficiary, except for the case mentioned below,
F-129

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
because it merely receives fees for compensation for its services on terms that are customary for these activities
and the fees are insignificant relative to the total amount of the trusts’ economic performance and variability.
Therefore, the MUFG Group does not consolidate these entities.
With respect to the jointly operated designated money in trusts, MUTB pools money from investors anddetermines how best to invest it. In addition, certain investors, such as money reserve funds and investment
funds, place excess funds in the jointly operated designated money trusts. MUTB typically invests in high-quality
financial assets, including government bonds, corporate bonds and corporate loans including loans to MUTB andreceives fees as compensation for services. In this role as a sponsor of these trusts’ MUTB provides guarantees
under which it is required to compensate a loss on the stated principal of the trust beneficial interests. MUTB is
considered as the primary beneficiary of these trusts’ because it is exposed to a potentially significant amount oflosses and also has the power to direct activities of these trusts’ that most significantly impact their economic
performance. Upon consolidation of the trusts, the certificates issued to the investors are accounted for as deposit
liabilities as the products are structured and marketed to customers similar to MUTB’s term deposit products.
MUTB considers the likelihood of incurring losses on the stated principal guarantee to be highly remote. In
the trusts’ operational history that extends over decades, the stated principal guarantee has never been called
upon. The variability in fair value of the net assets of the trusts has been primarily affected by the fluctuations ininterest rates, and the majority of such variability has been absorbed by investors or trust beneficiaries.
OthersThis category primarily comprises the following:
Financing Vehicles of the MUFG Group’s Customers
The MUFG Group is involved with several entities that are established by the MUFG Group’s customers.
These entities borrow funds from financial institutions and extend loans to their group entities. These entities
effectively work as fund-raising vehicles for their respective group entities and enable the groups to achieve
efficient financing by integrating their financing activities into a single entity. In all cases the MUFG Group is
not considered as the primary beneficiary because the MUFG Group’s participation in these entities is only toprovide financing, and the customers effectively hold the power to direct activities of these entities that mostsignificantly impact the economic performance of the entities. Consequently, the MUFG Group does notconsolidate these entities.
Funding Vehicles
The MUFG Group has established several wholly-owned off-shore vehicles which issue securities, typically
preferred stock that is fully guaranteed by the MUFG Group, to investors unrelated to the MUFG Group to fundpurchases of debt instruments issued by the MUFG Group. These entities are considered as VIEs because the
MUFG Group’s investment in the vehicles’ equity is not considered at risk and substantive as the entire amountraised by the vehicles was used to purchase debt instruments issued by the MUFG Group. Because the MUFG
Group does not have variable interests in these vehicles, the MUFG Group does not consolidate these entities.
Troubled Borrowers
During the normal course of business, the borrowers from the MUFG Group may experience financial
difficulties and sometimes enter into certain transactions that require the MUFG Group to assess whether theywould be considered as VIEs due to their difficult financial position. While in most cases such borrowers are notconsidered as VIEs when the transactions take place, in limited circumstances they are considered as VIEs due to
F-130

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
insufficient equity investment at risk. In all cases the MUFG Group is not considered as the primary beneficiary
because the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the troubled
borrowers resides with the management of the troubled borrowers, and the MUFG Group, as a lender, does nothave power over or assume any role in management. Therefore, the MUFG Group does not consolidate thesetroubled borrowers.
27. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Repayment of Excess Interest
The Japanese government implemented regulatory reforms affecting the consumer lending industry. In
December 2006, the Diet passed legislation to reduce the maximum permissible interest rate under the Act
Regulating the Receipt of Contributions, the Receipt of Deposits, and Interest Rates from 29.2% per annum to
20% per annum. The reduction in interest rates was implemented in June 2010. The regulatory reforms also
included amendments to the Money Lending Business Act which, effective June 18, 2010, abolished theso-called “gray-zone interest.” Gray-zone interest refers to interest rates exceeding the limits stipulated by theInterest Rate Restriction Act (between 15% per annum to 20% per annum depending on the amount of principal).
Under the regulatory reforms, all interest rates for loans originated after this reform are subject to the lower limits
imposed by the Interest Rate Restriction Act. Furthermore, the new regulations require stringent review
procedures for consumer finance companies before lending, and with the exception of certain provisions, one ofthose new regulations introduces a limit on aggregate credit extensions to one-third of the borrower’s annual
income.
Formerly, consumer finance companies were able to charge interest rates exceeding the limits stipulated by
the Interest Rate Restriction Act so long as the payment was made voluntarily by the borrowers, and the lendercomplied with various notice and other requirements. Accordingly, MUFG’s consumer finance subsidiaries and
F-131

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
equity method investees offered loans at interest rates above the Interest Rate Restriction Act. Upon theimplementation of the regulatory reforms in June 2010, they lowered the interest rates for loans originated after
this reform to below the Interest Rate Restriction Act.
In 2006, the Supreme Court of Japan passed decisions in a manner more favorable to borrowers requiring
reimbursement of previously paid interest exceeding the limits stipulated by the Interest Rate Restriction Act incertain circumstances. Borrowers’ claims for reimbursement of excess interest arose after such decisions andother regulatory changes. The MUFG Group maintains an allowance for repayment of excess interest based on an
analysis of past experience of reimbursement of excess interest, borrowers’ profile, recent trend of borrowers’
claims for reimbursement, and management future forecasts. Management believes that the provision for
repayment of excess interest is adequate and the allowance is at the appropriate amount to absorb probablelosses, so that the impact of future claims for reimbursement of excess interest will not have a material adverse
effect on the MUFG Group’s financial position and results of operations. The allowance for repayment of excessinterest established by MUFG’s consumer finance subsidiaries, which was included in Other liabilities, was¥47,211 million and ¥39,414 million as of March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. Provision (reversal) related tothe allowance is included in Other non-interest expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, there was a negative impact of ¥19,743 million,¥22,426 million and ¥56,911 million, respectively, on Equity in earnings of equity method investees—net in theaccompanying consolidated statements of income.
Litigation
In the ordinary course of business, the MUFG Group is subject to various litigation and regulatory matters.
In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the MUFG Group establishes an accrued liability for loss
contingencies arising from litigation and regulatory matters when they are determined to be probable in theiroccurrence and the probable loss amount can be reasonably estimated. Based upon current knowledge andconsultation 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 the MUFG Group’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As part of thisconclusion, the MUFG Group have considered the regulatory investigations regarding the MUFG Group’s
foreign operations disclosed in Note 27 to the consolidated financial statements included in MUFG’s annual
report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. With respect to these matters, the MUFG Groupeither resolved the matter or recorded a provision based on a reasonably estimable probable loss amount during
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. Additionally, management believes the amount of loss that is reasonably
possible, but not probable, from various litigation and regulatory matters is not material to the MUFG Group’s
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

30. BUSINESS SEGMENTS
The business segment information, set forth below, is derived from the internal management reporting
system used by management to measure the performance of the MUFG Group’s business segments. In addition,
the business segment information is primarily based on the financial information prepared in accordance withaccounting principles generally accepted in Japan as adjusted in accordance with internal management
accounting rules and practices. Accordingly, the format and information are not consistent with theaccompanying consolidated financial statements prepared on the basis of U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation isprovided for the total amounts of segments’ operating profit with income before income tax expense under
U.S. GAAP.
See Note 31 for financial information relating to the MUFG Group’s operations by geographic area. The
geographic financial information is consistent with the basis of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.
The following is a brief explanation of the MUFG Group’s business segments:
Retail Banking Business Group—Covers all domestic retail businesses, including commercial banking, trust
banking and securities businesses in Japan. This business group integrates the retail businesses of BTMU,
MUTB, MUSHD, Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS and other subsidiaries as well as retail product development,
promotion and marketing in a single management structure. At the same time, this business group has developedand implemented MUFG Plaza, a one-stop, comprehensive financial services concept that provides integratedbanking, trust and securities services.
Corporate Banking Business Group—Covers all domestic corporate businesses, including commercial
banking, investment banking, trust banking and securities businesses, in and outside Japan. Through the
integration of these business lines, diverse financial products and services are provided to the MUFG Group’s
corporate clients. This business group has strategic domains, sales channels and methods to match the different
growth stages and financial needs of the MUFG Group’s corporate clients.
F-134

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Global Business Group—Covers the businesses of BTMU and MUSHD outside Japan, includingcommercial banking such as loans, deposits and cash management services, investment banking, retail banking,trust assets and securities businesses (with the retail banking and trust assets businesses being conducted throughMUB and Krungsri), through a global network of nearly 1,200 offices outside Japan to provide customers withfinancial products and services that meet their increasingly diverse and sophisticated financing needs.
Trust Assets Business Group—Covers asset management and administration services for products such aspension trusts and security trusts by integrating the trust banking expertise of MUTB and the global network of
BTMU. This business group provides a full range of services to corporate and other pension funds, including
stable and secure pension fund management and administration, advice on pension schemes and payment ofbenefits to scheme members.
Global Markets Business Group—Covers asset and liability management and strategic investments of
BTMU and MUTB, and sales and trading of financial products of BTMU, MUTB and MUSHD.
Other—Consists mainly of the corporate centers of MUFG, BTMU, MUTB and MUMSS. The eliminationof duplicated amounts of net revenues among business segments is also reflected in Other.
Management does not use information on segments’ total assets to allocate resources and assess
performance. Accordingly, business segment information on total assets is not presented.
Effective April 1, 2016, the MUFG Group made modifications to internal management accounting rules andpractices to clarify the responsibility for profits of each business segment. Net revenues, operating expenses andoperating profits (losses) relating to the overseas Japanese corporate business are recorded in both the Corporate
Banking Business Group and the Global Business Group. The double-counting of these amounts is eliminated inaggregating the amounts of net revenues, operating expenses and operating profits (losses) of the Retail Banking
Business Group, the Corporate Banking Business Group, the Global Business Group and the Trust Assets
Business Group, which amounts are shown in the Total of Customer Business column in the tables below. Net
revenues, operating expenses and operating profits (losses) relating to the overseas Japanese corporate businesswere previously recorded only in the Global Business Group. This modification reflected management’s
determination that, given the operations of the Corporate Banking Business Group servicing Japanese corporateclients, the Corporate Banking Business Group’s responsibility should be clarified to extend beyond thebusinesses with Japanese corporate clients in Japan to the businesses with Japanese corporate clients in overseas
markets. This modification had the impact of increasing the operating profit of the Corporate Banking BusinessGroup for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and 2016 by ¥53.8 billion and ¥26.0 billion, respectively. In
addition, other modifications had the impact of increasing the operating profits of the Global Markets BusinessGroup and Other for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 by ¥1.0 billion and ¥2.5 billion, respectively, andreducing the operating profit of the Global Business Group by ¥3.5 billion. Also, other modifications had theimpact of increasing the operating profits of the Global Markets Business Group and Other for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2016 by ¥0.8 billion and ¥5.4 billion, respectively, and reducing the operating profit of the
Global Business Group by ¥6.2 billion. Prior period business segment information has been restated to enable
comparisons between the relevant amounts for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017.
Effective April 1, 2016, the MUFG Group also made modifications to internal management accounting rules
and practices for MUAH and Krungsri to eliminate the presentation of operating profits for MUAH and Krungsri
as sub-categories of the Global Business Group. In prior periods, the presentation of the Global Business Group’s
operating profit was broken down into the operating profit attributable to each of MUAH, Krungsri and Other
than MUAH/Krungsri. However, management no longer considers the breakdown to reflect the responsibility forprofits among MUAH, Krungsri and Other than MUAH/Krungsri, particularly in light of the recent changes to
the group company structure in the United States to comply with U.S. Enhanced Prudential Standards.

31. FOREIGN ACTIVITIESForeign operations include the business conducted by overseas offices, as well as international businessconducted from domestic offices, principally several international banking-related divisions of BTMU’s and
MUTB’s head office in Tokyo, and involve various transactions with debtors and customers residing outside
Japan. Close integration of the MUFG Group’s foreign and domestic activities makes precise estimates of theamounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses attributable to foreign operations difficult and necessarily
subjective. Assets, income and expenses attributable to foreign operations are allocated to geographical areas
based on the domicile of the debtors and customers.

F-137

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Generally, interest rates with respect to funds borrowed and loaned between domestic and foreign operations
are based on prevailing money market rates appropriate for the transactions. In general, the MUFG Group has
allocated all direct expenses and a proportionate share of general and administrative expenses to income derived
from foreign loans and other transactions by the MUFG Group’s foreign operations. The following table sets
forth estimated total assets at March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, and estimated total revenue, total expense, income(loss) before income tax expense (benefit) and net income (loss) attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Groupfor the respective fiscal years then ended:

32. FAIR VALUE
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in anorderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance on fair value
measurements also specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used tomeasure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in
active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs, for example, the reporting entity’s own data. Basedon the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the following three-level hierarchy is specified
by the guidance:‰

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

‰

Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices for substantially the full term of the instruments,
such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar
instruments in markets that are not active; other inputs that are observable; or market-corroborated
inputs.

‰Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant
to the fair value of the instruments.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of
input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The MUFG Group has an established and documented process for determining fair values in accordancewith the guidance. When available, quoted prices are used to determine fair value. If quoted prices are not
F-139

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
available, fair value is based upon valuation techniques that use observable or unobservable inputs. The fairvalues of liabilities are determined by discounting future cash flows at a rate which incorporates the MUFG
Group’s own creditworthiness. In addition, valuation adjustments may be made to ensure the financial
instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments include, but are not limited to, amounts that reflect
counterparty credit quality, liquidity risk and model risk.
The following section describes the valuation techniques used by the MUFG Group to measure fair valuesof certain financial instruments. The discussion includes the general classification of such financial instrumentsin accordance with the fair value hierarchy, a brief explanation of the valuation techniques, the significant inputs
to those valuation techniques, and any additional significant assumptions.
Interest-earning Deposits in Other Banks
Cash flows are estimated based on the terms of the contracts and discounted using the market interest rates
applicable to the maturity of the contracts, which are adjusted to reflect credit risks on counterparties. As the
inputs into the valuation techniques are readily observable, these deposits are classified in Level 2 of the fairvalue hierarchy.
Receivables Under Resale Agreements
Cash flows are estimated based on the terms of the contracts and discounted using the market interest rates
applicable to the maturity of the contracts, which are adjusted to reflect credit risks on counterparties. These
receivables are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Trading Account Assets and Liabilities—Trading Account Securities
When quoted prices are available in an active market, the MUFG Group uses quoted prices to measure thefair values of securities and such securities are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Examples ofLevel 1 securities include certain Japanese and foreign government bonds, and marketable equity securities.
When quoted prices are available but the securities are not traded in active markets, such securities areclassified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. These securities include certain Japanese government agency
bonds, Japanese prefectural and municipal bonds, foreign governments and official institutions bonds, corporate
bonds, residential mortgage-backed securities and equity securities.
As for quoted prices provided by third-party vendors, independent price verification is performed by the
MUFG group to determine the quality and reliability of the data for fair value measurement purposes. As part of its
independent price verification procedures, the MUFG group obtains a sufficient understanding of the vendors’
pricing sources and valuation processes. Further, the MUFG group performs internal price verification procedures
to ensure that the quoted prices provided from the third-party vendors are reasonable. Such verification procedures
include comparison of pricing sources and analysis of variances beyond certain thresholds.
When quoted prices are not available, the MUFG Group estimates fair values by using an internal model,
quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or non-binding prices obtained from independent third
parties. Such securities include certain commercial paper, corporate bonds, asset-backed securities and residential
mortgage-backed securities. For commercial paper, the MUFG Group estimates fair value using discounted cash
flows. The cash flows are estimated in accordance with the terms of contracts and discounted using a discount
F-140

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
rate based on the yield curve estimated from market interest rates appropriate to the securities. Commercial paper
is generally classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. For corporate bonds, the MUFG Group estimates fairvalue using discounted cash flows. The cash flows are estimated in accordance with the terms of contracts anddiscounted using discount rates applicable to the maturity of the bonds, which are adjusted to reflect credit risk ofissuers. Credit risk of issuers is reflected in the future cash flows being discounted by the interest rate applicableto the maturity of the bonds. Corporate bonds are classified in either Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy, depending primarily on the significance of the adjustments to the unobservable input of credit
worthiness. For residential mortgage-backed securities, the MUFG Group estimates fair value using non-binding
prices obtained from independent third parties. Residential mortgage-backed securities are classified as level 2
unless otherwise significant unobservable input is used for the valuation.
When there is less liquidity for securities or significant inputs used in the fair value measurements areunobservable, such securities are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Examples of such Level 3
securities include CLOs backed by general corporate loans, which are classified in asset-backed securities. The
fair value of CLOs is measured by weighing the estimated fair value amounts from the internal model and thenon-binding quotes from the independent broker-dealers. The weight of the quotes from independent brokerdealers is determined based on the result of inquiries with the broker-dealers to understand their basis of fairvalue calculation with consideration given to transaction volume. Key inputs to the internal model include
projected cash flows through an analysis of underlying loans, probability of default which incorporates market
indices such as LCDX (which is an index of loan credit default swaps), prepayment rates and discount rates
reflecting liquidity premiums based on historical market data.
Trading Account Assets and Liabilities—Derivatives
Exchange-traded derivatives valued using quoted prices are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Examples of Level 1 derivatives include stock futures index and interest rate futures. However, the majority ofthe derivative contracts entered into by the MUFG Group are traded over-the-counter and valued using valuation
techniques as there are no quoted prices for such derivatives. The valuation techniques and inputs vary dependingon the types and contractual terms of the derivatives. The principal valuation techniques used to value derivatives
include discounted cash flows, the Black-Scholes model and the Hull-White model. The key inputs include
interest rate yield curve, foreign currency exchange rate, volatility, credit quality of the counterparty or the
MUFG Group and spot price of the underlying. These models are commonly accepted in the financial industry
and key inputs to the models are generally readily observable in an active market. Derivatives valued using suchvaluation techniques and inputs are generally classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Examples of such
Level 2 derivatives include plain-vanilla interest rate swaps, foreign currency forward contracts and currency
option contracts.
Derivatives that are valued using valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs are classified in
Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Examples of Level 3 derivatives include long-term interest rate or currency
swaps and certain credit derivatives, where significant inputs such as volatility, credit curves and correlation ofsuch inputs are unobservable.
Investment Securities
Investment securities include Available-for-sale debt and equity securities, whose fair values are measured
using the same valuation techniques as the trading account securities described above. Investment securities also
include investments in nonmarketable equity securities which are subject to specialized industry accounting
principles. The valuation of such nonmarketable equity securities involves significant management judgment due
F-141

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
to the absence of quoted prices, lack of liquidity and the long term nature of these investments. Further, there
may be restriction on transfers of nonmarketable equity securities. The MUFG Group values such securities
initially at transaction price and subsequently adjusts such valuations, considering evidence such as current sales
transactions of similar securities, initial public offerings, recent equity issuances and change in financial
condition of the investee company. Nonmarketable equity securities are included in Level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy.
Other Assets
Other assets measured at fair value mainly consist of securities received as collateral that may be sold or
repledged under securities lending transactions, money in trust for segregating cash deposited by customers on
security transactions and derivatives designated as hedging instruments. The securities received as collateral
under lending transactions mainly consist of certain Japanese and foreign government bonds which are valued
using the valuation techniques previously described in the section entitled “Trading Accounts Assets andLiabilities—Trading Account Securities” above.
Money in trust for segregating cash deposited by customers on security transactions mainly consists ofcertain Japanese government bonds which are valued using the valuation techniques described in the “Trading
Account Assets and Liabilities—Trading Account Securities” above and is included in Level 1 or Level 2 of thefair value hierarchy depending on the component assets.
The fair values of derivatives designated as hedging instruments are measured using the valuation
techniques described in the “Trading Account Assets and Liabilities—Derivatives” above.
Obligations to Return Securities Received as Collateral
Obligations to return securities received as collateral under securities lending transactions are measured at
the fair values of the securities received as collateral. The securities received as collateral consist primarily ofcertain Japanese and foreign government bonds, whose fair values are measured using the valuation techniques
described in the “Trading Account Assets and Liabilities—Trading Account Securities” above.
Other Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt
Certain short-term borrowings and long-term debt are measured at fair value due to the election of the fairvalue option. The fair value of these instruments are measured principally based on the discounted cash flows.
Where the inputs into the valuation techniques are mainly based on observable inputs, these instruments areclassified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Where significant inputs are unobservable, they are classified in
Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Market Valuation Adjustments
Counterparty credit risk adjustments are made to certain financial assets such as over-the-counter
derivatives to factor in counterparty credit exposure. As not all counterparties have the same credit risk, it isnecessary, in calculating credit risk adjustments, to take into account probability of a default event occurring foreach counterparty which is primarily derived from observed or estimated spreads on credit default swaps. In
addition, the counterparty credit risk adjustment takes into account the effect of credit risk mitigation such aspledged collateral and the legal right of offset with the counterparty.

F-142

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
For own credit risk adjustments, the MUFG Group takes into consideration all the facts and circumstances,including its own credit rating, the difference between its funding rate and market interest rate, and the existenceof collateralization or netting agreements. As a result of these analyses, the MUFG Group considered that own
credit risk adjustments for financial liabilities were not material.
Liquidity adjustments are applied mainly to the instruments classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy
when recent observable prices of such instruments are not available or such instruments are traded in inactive or
less active markets. The liquidity adjustments are based on the facts and circumstances of the markets including
the availability of external quotes and the time since the latest available quote.
Model valuation adjustments such as unobservable parameter valuation adjustments may be provided when
the fair values of instruments are determined based on internally developed valuation techniques. Examples ofsuch adjustments include adjustments to the model price of certain derivatives where parameters such ascorrelation are unobservable. Unobservable parameter valuation adjustments are applied to mitigate theuncertainty inherent in the resulting valuation estimate.
Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share
The MUFG Group has interests in investment funds mainly hedge funds, private equity funds, and realestate funds that are measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis.
Hedge funds are primarily multi-disciplinary hedge funds that employ a fundamental bottom-up investment
approach across various asset classes and strategies. The MUFG Group’s investments in hedge funds are
generally redeemable on a quarterly basis with 15 days advance notice.
Private equity funds have specific investment objectives in connection with their acquisition of equity
interests, such as providing financing and other support to start-up businesses, medium and small entities in aparticular geographical area, and to companies with certain technology or companies in a high-growth industry.
Generally, these investments cannot be redeemed with the funds, and the return of invested capital and its gains
are derived from distributions received upon the liquidation of the underlying assets of the fund. It is estimatedthat the underlying assets of the fund would be liquidated within a ten-year period.
Real estate funds invest globally and primarily in real estate companies, debt recapitalizations and direct
property. These investments are generally not redeemable with the funds. Distributions from each fund will bereceived as the underlying investments of the funds are liquidated. It is estimated that the underlying assets of thefunds would be liquidated within a four-year period.

Changes in Level 3 Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The following tables present a reconciliation of the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on arecurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2016 and2017. The determination to classify a financial instrument within Level 3 is based upon the significance of theunobservable inputs to overall fair value measurement. However, Level 3 financial instruments typically include,in addition to the unobservable or Level 3 input, observable inputs (that is, inputs that are actively quoted and canbe validated to external sources). Accordingly, the gains and losses in the tables below include changes in fairvalue due in part to observable inputs used in the valuation techniques.

Notes:(1) The fair value as of March 31, 2016 and 2017 excludes the fair value of investments valued using vendor prices.
(2) Weighted averages are calculated by weighing each input by the relative fair value of the respective financial instruments.
(3) See “Probability of default” in “Sensitivity to and range of unobservable inputs.”(4) For further detail of Internal model, refer to the last paragraph of “Trading Account Assets and Liabilities—Trading Account Securities.”

Sensitivity to and range of unobservable inputs
Probability of default—Probability of default is an estimate of the likelihood that the default event will
occur and the MUFG Group will be unable to collect the contractual amounts. A significant increase (decrease)in the default rate would result in a significant decrease (increase) in a fair value through a decrease (increase) inthe estimated cash flows. Probability of default used in internal model of Residential mortgage-backed securities,
Commercial mortgage-backed securities and Asset-backed securities represents that of underlying assets,
whereas probability of default used in other valuation techniques represents the counterparty default risks,determined through the MUFG Group’s credit rating system.
The wide range of probability of default used in internal model of Residential mortgage-backed securities,
Commercial mortgage-backed securities and Asset-backed securities is mainly caused by Asset-backed
securities. Asset-backed securities have a large number of underlying loans, mainly corporate loans, in several
industries. The MUFG Group primarily makes investments in the senior tranches of such securities, with noinvestments in the equity portion. Thus, the MUFG Group’s investments have higher priority of payments thanmezzanine and equity and even if some of underlying loans become default, the MUFG Group may still be able
to receive the full contractual payments.
For derivative contracts, the MUFG Group holds positions with a large number of counterparties withvarious credit quality, which results in wider range of probability of default. However, the majority ofcounterparties have higher ratings, categorized as “Normal” in the internal credit rating system, the inputs used toestimate fair value of derivative contracts are concentrated in the lower end of the range.
Discount factor and Liquidity premium—Discount factor and liquidity premium are adjustments todiscount rates to reflect uncertainty of cash flows and liquidity of the instruments. When recent prices of similar
instruments are unobservable in inactive or less active markets, discount rates are adjusted based on the facts andcircumstances of the markets including the availability of quotes and the time since the latest available quotes.
A significant increase (decrease) in discount rate would result in a significant decrease (increase) in a fair value.
Recovery rate and Prepayment rate—Recovery rate is the proportion of the total outstanding balance of abond or loan that is expected to be collected in a liquidation scenario. For many debt securities (such as assetF-151

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
backed securities), there is no directly observable market input for recovery, but indications of recovery levels
are available from third-party pricing services. The assumed recovery of a security may differ from its actual
recovery that will be observable in the future. Prepayment rate represents the proportion of principal that is
expected to be paid prematurely in each period on a security or pool of securities. Prepayment rates change thefuture cash flows for the investor and thereby change the fair value of the security. Recovery rate and prepayment
rate would affect estimation of future cash flows to a certain extent and changes in these inputs could result in asignificant increase or decrease in fair value.
Volatility—Volatility is a measure of the speed and severity of market price changes and is a key factor in
pricing. Typically, instruments can become more expensive if volatility increases. A significant increase(decrease) in volatility would cause a significant increase (decrease) in the value of an option resulting in thesignificant increase (decrease) in fair value.
The level of volatility generally depends on the tenor of the underlying instrument and the strike price orlevel defined in the contract. Volatilities for certain combinations of tenor and strike price are not observable.
The volatility inputs used to estimate fair value of interest rate contracts are distributed throughout the range.
Correlation—Correlation is a measure of the relationship between the movements of two variables (i.e. how
the change in one variable influences a change in the other variables). A variety of correlation-related
assumptions are required for a wide range of instruments including foreign governments and official institutions
bonds, asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, derivatives and certain other instruments. In most cases,
correlations used are not observable in the market and must be estimated using historical information. Changes incorrelation inputs can have a major impact, favorable or unfavorable, on the value of an instrument, depending
on its nature. In addition, the wide range of correlation inputs are primarily due to the complex and unique natureof these instruments. There are many different types of correlation inputs, including cross-asset correlation (suchas correlation between interest rate and equity), and same-asset correlation (such as correlation between interest
rates). Correlation levels are highly dependent on market conditions and could have a relatively wide range oflevels within or across asset classes.
For interest rate contracts and foreign exchange contracts, the diversity in the portfolio held by the MUFG
Group is reflected in wide ranges of correlation, as the fair values of transactions with a variety of currencies andtenors are determined using several foreign exchange and interest rate curves. For equity derivative contracts, thewide range of correlation between interest rate and equity is primarily due to the large number of correlation
pairs with different maturities of contracts. For credit derivative contracts, the wide range of correlation between
underlying assets is primarily due to factors such as reference assets with different maturities, capital structure
subordinations, and credit quality.
Term of litigation—Term of litigation is the estimated period until the resolution of a certain litigation
matter that relates to an issuer’s restricted shares (“Covered Litigation”) that the MUFG Group purchased, whichis referenced in certain swap transactions.
These swaps are valued using a discounted cash flow methodology and are dependent upon the final
resolution of the Covered Litigation. The settlement timing of the Covered Litigation is not observable in themarket, therefore the estimated term is classified as a level 3 input.
The restricted shares which the MUFG Group purchased will be convertible to listed shares of the issuer atthe end of the Covered Litigation. The restricted shares will be diluted dependent upon the settlement amount of
the Covered Litigation and the dilution of the restricted shares is accomplished through an adjustment to the
F-152

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
conversion rate of the restricted shares. In order to hedge the reduction of the conversion rate, the MUFG Group
entered into certain swaps with the seller which references the conversion rate. The value generated by these
trades is subject to the ultimate term of the issuer’s litigation, subject to a minimum term referenced within the
trade contracts.
Market-required return on capital—Market-required return on capital is the return on capital expected by
the secondary market. A significant increase (decrease) in the market-required return on capital would result in asignificant decrease (increase) in a fair value of a financial asset.
Valuation Process for Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
The MUFG Group establishes valuation policies and procedures for measuring fair value, for which the risk
management departments ensure that the valuation techniques used are logical, appropriate and consistent withmarket information. The financial accounting offices ensure that the valuation techniques are consistent with theaccounting policies.
In accordance with the valuation policies and procedures, fair value is determined by the risk management
departments or similar sections that are independent of the front offices in order to ensure objectivity and validityof measuring fair value. An analysis performed on the determined fair value is periodically reported to the
management.
When valuation techniques are used to measure fair value, the valuation techniques are required to bepre-approved by the risk management departments. If the risk management departments determine that thetechniques are not consistent with market practice, the valuation techniques are modified as necessary.
Fair value measurements are verified for reasonableness by the risk management departments which areresponsible to perform an analytical review of the fair value measurements which includes a comparison withmarket trends and information.
For non-binding prices obtained from independent third parties, internal price verification procedures are
performed by the risk management departments. Such verification procedures include comparison of pricing
sources and analysis of variances beyond certain thresholds.
Unobservable inputs used in a Level 3 fair value measurement are internally estimated by the risk
management departments based upon the market information such as observable inputs. The reasonableness of
the inputs is validated by other risk management departments by a comparison analysis between the market valueof financial instruments using such Level 3 inputs and the internally estimated fair value, to the extent necessary.

Investment securities primarily include impaired cost-method investments which were written down to fairvalue during the period. The fair values of nonmarketable equity securities are mainly determined by the
Trinomial Tree Method in which the present value of dividend cash flows and option prices are used. These
impaired investment securities are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of investments
in funds are mainly measured using the net asset value per share.
Loans include loans held for sale and collateral dependent loans. Loans held for sale are recorded at thelower of cost or estimated fair value. The fair value of the loans held for sale is based on secondary market
prices, recent transactions or discounted cash flows. These loans are principally classified in Level 3 of the fairvalue hierarchy, and when quoted prices are available but not traded actively, such loans held for sale areclassified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Collateral dependent loans are measured at fair value of theunderlying collateral. Collateral is comprised mainly of real estate and exchange-traded equity securities. The
MUFG Group maintains an established process for internally determining the fair value of real estate, using thefollowing valuation techniques and assumptions. Collateral dependent loans that are measured based onunderlying real estate collateral are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
‰

Replacement cost approach. The replacement cost approach is primarily used for buildings and the land
they are built on. This approach calculates the fair value of the collateral using the replacement cost of
the property as of the valuation date. Replacement cost tables and useful life tables used for thisapproach are developed by subsidiaries of MUFG.

‰

Sales comparison approach. The sales comparison approach is mainly used for land. The fair value ofthe collateral located in Japan is based on Japanese government official land prices and standard land
prices, considering the results of comparison analysis between the official roadside value which is used
for tax purposes and the related government official land and standard land prices.

‰

Income approach. The income approach is, as a general rule, applied to all rental properties based on thehighest and best use concept. This approach calculates the fair value of the collateral using expected
future cash flows. In this approach, the expected annual net operating income is discounted using therelated capitalization yield. The significant assumptions within the income approach are the expectedannual net operating income and capitalization yield. The expected annual net operating income isestimated based on rental income of the property. The capitalization yield is determined based on thelocation and use of the property by subsidiaries of MUFG. The capitalization yield may be adjusted toreflect the trends in locations, occupancy rates and rent level and other factors.

Premises and equipment consist of those assets which were written down to fair value. The fair values are
determined based on prices obtained from an appraiser or discounted cash flows. These impaired premises andequipment are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Intangible assets consist of those assets which were written down to fair value. The fair values are
determined based on discounted cash flows. These impaired intangible assets are classified as Level 3 of the fairvalue hierarchy.
Other assets mainly consist of investments in equity method investees which were written down to fair value
due to impairment. When investments in equity method investees are marketable equity securities, the fair values
are determined based on quoted prices. Impaired investments in equity method investees which are marketable
equity securities are classified in either Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. When investments inequity method investees are nonmarketable equity securities, the fair values are determined using the same
methodologies as those for impaired nonmarketable equity securities described above. Impaired investments inequity method investees which are nonmarketable equity securities are classified in Level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy.

Fair Value Option
The MUFG Group elected the fair value option for foreign currency-denominated debt securities and equity
securities held by BTMU and MUTB. The election was made to mitigate accounting mismatches related tofluctuations of foreign exchange rates by allowing the gains and losses on translation of these securities to be
included in current earnings. Had the fair value option not been elected, the gains and losses on translation ofthese securities would have been reflected in OCI, while the gains and losses on translation of foreign currencydenominated financial liabilities would have been included in current earnings.
The MUFG Group also elected the fair value option for certain financial instruments held by MUSHD’s
foreign subsidiaries because those financial instruments are managed on a fair value basis, and these exposures
are considered to be trading-related positions. These financial assets are included in Other assets. These financial
liabilities are mainly included in Other short-term borrowings and Long-term debt. Unrealized gains and losses
on such financial instruments are recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
The following table presents the gains or losses recorded for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016
and 2017 related to the eligible instruments for which the MUFG Group elected the fair value option:

Notes:(1) Includes impaired securities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Refer to “Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a
Nonrecurring Basis” for the details of the level classification.
(2) Excludes cost-method investments of ¥432 billion and ¥429 billion at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively, of which the MUFG
Group did not estimate the fair value since it was not practical and no impairment indicators were identified. See Note 3 for the details ofthese cost-method investments.
(3) Includes loans held for sale and collateral dependent loans measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Refer to “Assets and Liabilities
Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis” for the details of the level classification.
(4) Excludes investments in equity method investees of ¥1,918 billion and ¥2,200 billion at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

The following section describes the valuation techniques adopted by the MUFG Group to estimate fairvalues of financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets.
Cash and due from banks, Interest-earning deposits in other banks, Call loans and funds sold,Receivables under resale agreements and Receivable under securities borrowing transactions—For cash anddue from banks, interest-earning deposits in other banks, call loans and funds sold, receivables under resaleagreements and receivable under securities borrowing transactions, the carrying amounts are a reasonableestimate of the fair values because of their short-term nature and limited credit risk.
Investment securities—The fair values of investment securities other than those classified as
Available-for-sale or Held-to-maturity (i.e., nonmarketable equity securities) are not readily determinable as they
do not have readily available quoted prices or secondary market prices. The fair values of certain nonmarketable
equity securities, such as preferred stock convertible to marketable common stock issued by public companies,
are determined by utilizing commonly accepted valuation techniques to derive a fair value using the present
F-158

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
value of dividend cash flows and option prices. For option prices, the Trinomial Tree Method determines
possible paths of future stock prices using a forward rate for a common stock, and the price is calculated bymultiplying the possible paths of future stock prices by the expected cash flows generated from the probability of
exercising options or upon exercising of the options. Inputs used in the valuation include but are not limited tostock price, volatility and credit spread. The valuation is performed on a quarterly basis. At the time of any sale,
the MUFG Group generally separately calculates a valuation to be used in sales price negotiations with thecounterparty. The price agreed between the MUFG Group and a counterparty is also used as a reference forvalidating the appropriateness of previous valuations of the investment. The MUFG Group performs periodic
validation of the valuation techniques. Specifically, the sensitivity and appropriateness of the inputs are verified
by using different valuation techniques employed by the MUFG Group. It is not practicable for the MUFG Groupto estimate the fair value of other nonmarketable securities issued by non-public companies for which a quoted
price is not available. For these securities, the MUFG Group is unable to estimate fair value without incurring
undue cost because they comprise investments in numerous non-public companies and each investment
represents an insignificant percentage relative to each company. Therefore, the above summary does not include
the carrying amounts of such investment securities. The carrying amounts not included in the above summary are¥432 billion and ¥429 billion at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively.
Loans—The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows based on types ofloans, internal ratings and possibility of prepayment using the discount rates which include adjustments to reflect
the expectations about possible variations to the current market rates. For certain residential loans with variableinterest rates provided to individual home owners, the carrying amount is presented as the fair value since suchcarrying amount approximates the fair value, unless the creditworthiness of the borrower has changed
significantly since the loan origination. Where quoted prices or estimated fair values are available, primarily forloans to refinancing countries, loans held for sales and certain other foreign loans, the fair values are based onsuch quoted prices and estimated fair values, including secondary market prices. For receivables from bankrupt,
virtually bankrupt, and likely to become bankrupt borrowers, fair value is estimated based mainly on the
expected amount to be collected from collateral and guarantees. The carrying amount is presented as the fairvalue since the fair value approximates such carrying amount.
Other financial assets—The estimated fair values of other financial assets, which primarily include accrued
interest receivable, customers’ acceptance liabilities and accounts receivable, approximate their carrying
amounts. The above summary does not include the carrying amounts of investments in equity method investees
amounting to ¥1,918 billion and ¥2,200 billion at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively.
Non-interest-bearing deposits, Call money and funds purchased, Payables under repurchase agreements
and Payable under securities lending transactions—For non-interest-bearing deposits, the amount payable on
demand as of the consolidated balance sheet date (i.e., the carrying amount) is considered to be the fair value. For
call money and funds purchased, payables under repurchase agreements and payable under securities lendingtransactions, the carrying amounts are reasonable estimate of the fair value because of their short-term nature andlimited credit risk.
Interest-bearing deposits—For variable rate time deposits, the carrying amount is presented as the fairvalue because the market interest rate is reflected in such deposits within a short time period. Fixed rate time
deposits are grouped by certain maturity lengths. The fair value of such deposits is estimated by discounting
expected future cash flows using the discount rates that would be applied to newly accepted deposits.
Due to trust account—Since these are cash deposits with no maturity, the carrying amount is presented as
the fair value as the fair value approximates such carrying amount.
F-159

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Other short-term borrowings—For most other short-term borrowings, the carrying amount is presented as
the fair value since such carrying amount approximates the fair value because of their short-term nature andlimited credit risk.
Long-term debt—The fair value of corporate bonds issued by the MUFG Group is determined based onquoted prices of those corporate bonds. The fair value of fixed rate corporate bonds without quoted prices is thepresent value of expected future cash flows from these borrowings, which is discounted at an interest rate
generally applicable to similar fixed rate corporate bonds reflecting premium applicable to the MUFG Group. For
variable rate corporate bonds without quoted prices, the carrying amount of such bonds is presented as the fairvalue since such carrying amount approximates the fair value. This is on the basis that the market interest rate isreflected in the fair value of such corporate bonds because such bond terms were set within a short time period
and that there has been no significant impact on the fair value of those bonds.
Other financial liabilities—The estimated fair values of other financial liabilities, which primarily include
accrued interest payable, bank acceptances, accounts payable and obligations under standby letters of credit andguarantees, approximate their carrying amounts. The fair values of obligations under standby letters of credit andguarantees are based on fees received or receivable by the MUFG Group.
The fair values of certain off-balance sheet financial instruments held for purposes other than trading,including commitments to extend credit and commercial letters of credit, are estimated using the fees currently
charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and thecredit quality. The aggregate fair value of such instruments at March 31, 2016 and 2017 was not material.
33. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The following describes the stock-based compensation plans of MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD, MUMSS
and MUAH.
MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD and MUMSSOn May 16, 2016, MUFG introduced the Board Incentive Plan as a new incentive plan for officers of
MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD and MUMSS. On November 14, 2016, MUFG expanded the Board Incentive
Plan to officers who hold unexercised Stock Acquisition Rights granted under the Stock Option Plan. As a resultof this transaction, the Stock Option Plan remains available to officers who are on overseas assignment as of thetransition date and hold unexercised Stock Acquisition Rights. This transition which consists of the exchange of
unexercised Stock Acquisition Rights for common share of MUFG under the Board Incentive Plan was treated as
modification of the Stock Option Plan for accounting purpose and incremental compensation cost resulting fromthe modification was ¥2,028 million.
Stock Option Plan
MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD and MUMSS have the Stock Option Plan.
The Stock Acquisition Rights under the Stock Option Plan were normally issued and granted to officers
once a year until the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. They were normally issued and granted to officers except
for outside directors and corporate auditors once a year from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.
The class of shares to be issued or transferred upon exercise of the Stock Acquisition Rights is commonshares of MUFG. The number of shares to be issued or transferred upon exercise of each Stock Acquisition Right(“number of granted shares”) is 100 common shares of MUFG. In the event of a stock split or reverse stock split
F-160

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)of common shares of MUFG, the number of granted shares shall be adjusted in accordance with the ratio of thestock split or reverse stock split. If any events occur that require the adjustment to the number of granted shares(e.g., mergers, consolidations, corporate separations or capital reductions of MUFG), MUFG shall appropriately
adjust the number of granted shares to a reasonable extent.
The contractual term of the Stock Acquisition Rights is approximately 30 years from the date of grant. Someof the Stock Acquisition Rights vest on the date of grant and the rest of the Stock Acquisition Rights granted vest
depending on the holders’ service periods as officers.
The Stock Acquisition Rights are only exercisable after the date on which the following conditions are met:
(1) holder as a director, a corporate executive officer or an executive officer is no longer a director, a corporate
executive officer and an executive officer, and (2) holder as a corporate auditor is no longer a corporate auditor,and (3) holder as a senior fellow is no longer a senior fellow. The exercise price is ¥1 per share.

Note:
(1) All shares transitioned to the Board Incentive Plan were granted and vested. See the explanation of the following item, The Board
Incentive Plan, for more information.

The fair value of the Stock Acquisition Rights is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model that uses the assumptions described in the following table. The risk-free interest rate isbased on the Japanese government bonds yield curve in effect at the date of grant based on the expected term.
The expected volatility is based on the historical data from traded common shares of MUFG. The expected termis based on the average service period of officers of MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD and MUMSS, which
represents the expected outstanding period of the Stock Acquisition Rights granted. The expected dividend yieldis based on the dividend rate of common share of MUFG at the date of grant.

The weighted-average grant date fair value of the Stock Acquisition Rights granted for the fiscal years
ended March 31, 2015 and 2016 was ¥53,900 and ¥80,200 per 100 shares, respectively.
The MUFG Group recognized ¥1,594 million, ¥1,647 million and ¥252 million of compensation costs
related to the Stock Acquisition Rights with ¥540 million, ¥518 million and ¥77 million of the corresponding tax
benefit for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.
Cash received from the exercise of the Stock Acquisition Rights for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015,2016 and 2017 was ¥5 million, ¥4 million and ¥4 million, respectively. The actual tax benefit realized for the tax
deductions from exercise of the Stock Acquisition Rights for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015, 2016 and2017 was ¥728 million, ¥538 million and ¥651 million, respectively.
The Board Incentive PlanOn May 16, 2016, MUFG’s compensation committee approved the introduction of a Board Incentive Plan
as a new incentive plan for officers and covers the fiscal years corresponding to the medium-term business planof MUFG under which common shares of MUFG and cash equivalent to the liquidation value of the commonshares of MUFG together with dividends attributable to the common shares of MUFG are delivered and/or
provided as compensation. The Board Incentive Plan uses the trust structure called a Board Incentive Plan Trust(“the BIP Trust”), and was authorized to purchase up to ¥15,800 million common shares of MUFG in the open
market. The BIP Trust initially consists of the BIP Trust I and the BIP Trust II started on May 17, 2016, and willend on August 31, 2018. These trusts period may be extended through the modification of the trust agreement
and additional contributions to the trust.
On November 14, 2016, MUFG’s compensation committee also approved the introduction of the BIP Trust
III, using the same structure as above for officers to implement the transition from the Stock Option Plan underwhich Stock Acquisition Rights had previously been granted but have not been exercised by officers to the Board
Incentive Plan. The BIP Trust III was authorized to purchase up to ¥8,100 million common shares of MUFG in
the open market. The BIP Trust III started on November 15, 2016 and will end on November 30, 2019. If any
beneficiary under the BIP Trust III remains as active officers at the initial expiration date, the trust period will be
extended for additional three years. The extension of the trust period will be made in the same manner up to 30
years.
MUFG funded and established the BIP Trust, and from time to time, make contributions to the BIP Trust
whose beneficiaries are officers of MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD and MUMSS within the limit approved by
MUFG’s compensation committee. BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD and MUMSS also reimburse MUFG for its
contributions to the BIP Trust. The trustee of the BIP Trusts, MUTB, acquires common shares of MUFG in the
open market in accordance with the instructions from the trust administrator, who is a third party that does nothave any interest in MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD and MUMSS.
During the period of the BIP Trust, certain points are awarded to officers. The number of the points will be
determined based on each rank of officers, promotions to a higher rank in the BIP Trust I and, based on singleyear financial results and the degree to which the medium-term business plan has been achieved in the BIP Trust
II. At December 1, 2016, certain points were awarded to officers who have exchanged their unexercised stockacquisition rights at the transition from the Stock Option Plan to the BIP Trust III.
One point corresponds to one common share of MUFG, and if the number of common share of MUFG
owned by the BIP Trusts has increased or decreased due to a stock split, gratis allotment of shares, reverse stock
split, etc., the number of common share of MUFG to be delivered and/or provided for one point will be adjusted
accordingly.
F-162

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Officers will receive common shares of MUFG in the number corresponding to a certain percentage of thesepoints and cash equivalent to the liquidation value of the common shares of MUFG corresponding to theremaining points after they are liquidated within the BIP Trusts. As to the BIP Trust I and the BIP Trust III,
common shares of MUFG and cash will be delivered and/or provided upon resignation of the officers. As to the
BIP Trust II, common shares of MUFG and cash will be delivered and/or provided immediately following thelast day of the fiscal years corresponding to the medium-term business plan of MUFG. Dividends arising from
common share of MUFG will also be distributed to officers based on the number of the points or the beneficial
interest of officers.
The following is a roll-forward of common share of MUFG under the BIP Trust I and the BIP Trust II of
MUFG, BTMU, MUTB, MUSHD and MUMSS for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. For the BIP Trust III,

MUAH
In April 2010, MUAH adopted the UnionBanCal Plan (“UNBC Plan”). Under the UNBC Plan, MUAH
grants restricted stock units settled in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) representing common shares of
MUFG, to key employees at the discretion of the Human Capital Committee of the Board of Directors (“theCommittee”). The Committee determines the number of shares, vesting requirements and other features andconditions of the restricted stock units. Under the UNBC Plan, MUFG ADRs are purchased in the open market
upon the vesting of the restricted stock units, through a revocable trust. There is no amount authorized to beissued under the UNBC Plan since all shares are purchased in the open market. These awards generally vest
pro-rata on each anniversary of the grant date and generally become fully vested three years from the grant date,
F-163

MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
provided that the employee has completed the specified continuous service requirement. Generally, the grants
vest earlier if the employee dies, is permanently and totally disabled, retires under certain grant, age and service
conditions, or terminates employment under certain conditions.
Under the UNBC Plan, the restricted stock unit participants do not have dividend rights, voting rights orother stockholder rights. The grant date fair value of these awards is equal to the closing price of the MUFG
ADRs on date of grant.
Effective July 1, 2014, the U.S. branch banking operations of BTMU were integrated under MUB’s
operations and MUAH assumed the obligations of the stock bonus plan established by BTMU Headquarters for
the Americas (“HQA Plan”). The HQA Plan is substantially similar to the UNBC Plan; however, participants in
the HQA Plan are entitled to “dividend equivalent credits” on their unvested restricted stock units when MUFG
pays dividends to its shareholders. The credit is equal to the dividends that the participants would have received
on the shares had the shares been issued to the participants when the restricted stock units were granted.
Accumulated dividend equivalents are paid to participants in cash on an annual basis.
Effective June 8, 2015, MUAH amended and restated the HQA Plan as the MUAH Plan. The MUAH Plan issubstantially similar to the UNBC and HQA Plans. MUAH’s future grants will be made under the MUAH Plan
only. “Dividend equivalent credits” arising from grants under the MUAH Plan are paid to participants in shareson an annual basis.
The following table is a summary of the UNBC Plan, the HQA Plan and MUAH Plan, which together arepresented as the “Stock Bonus Plans”:

up to ¥9,600 million from ¥8,100 million. The purpose of the acquisition is to increase the total number ofcommon shares of MUFG to be provided to officers since the number of these common shares of MUFG is now
expected to fall short of necessary number of common shares of MUFG due to factors including the fluctuationin the price of common shares of MUFG subsequent to the introduction of the BIP Trust III. See Note 33 forfurther information on the BIP Trust III.

Acting with Honesty and Integrity

The work of each employee of MUFG is directly or indirectly related to MUFG customers. We always place
our diverse customers at the center of all activities, act with honesty and integrity, and support customers from along-term perspective.
②

Safeguarding Customer Assets

Customers rely upon us to be stewards of their financial assets and investments. The privacy of theinformation that customers also entrust to us is as valuable to them as their financial assets, and for that reason,
maintaining customer confidentiality at all times is critical. The loss, misuse, leakage, or improper transfer ofcustomer information not only can damage customer interests but also can seriously undermine the trust andconfidence that MUFG has earned over many years.
2

③

Protecting Customer Interests

We act with honesty and integrity, and strive at all times not to damage the interests of our customers.
MUFG is an integrated financial group comprising a wide variety of businesses. When conducting business withcustomers, we must be sensitive to the possibility of conflicts of interest that may exist between customers ofdifferent MUFG companies and between a customer and an MUFG company. In all cases, we act appropriately
and with integrity, good judgment, and discretion in accordance with our policies on conflicts of interest.
1-2. Controlling Quality①

Products and Services that Match Customer Needs

Our customers place great faith in us when they entrust us with their business. To earn their trust and tobuild strong and lasting business relationships, it is important to maintain strong quality control practices at allstages, from planning, development, and proposal, to the delivery of our products and services. Quality control
means that we improve our processes to help provide products and services that match customer needs, and carryout accurate and secure transactions. To this end, we always keep in mind the following principles:②a.

When developing products and services, we clearly define our customers and their needs as known tous.

b.

The structure and profile of products and services must be developed and described in a clear andunderstandable manner.

c.

Products and services proposed and provided to customers match their purposes, needs, knowledge,
experience, financial capabilities, and other conditions as known to us.

d.

We equip ourselves with the knowledge and skills needed to propose, provide, and manage our
products and services.

e.

We provide our customers with clear and accurate explanations of products and services so that they
understand the risks associated with them, accept the risks, and are fully informed when they agree toretain our products and services.

While MUFG consists of many diverse business entities, customers view us as a single, integrated company
and have high expectations for our comprehensive capabilities. Our strength does not come from individual star
performers, but from the collective contributions of the team. We continually strive to provide customers with abroad set of high-quality products and services by bringing our capabilities together and acting as a seamless andunified group.

development of society, or have a severe negative impact on our reputation. These areas include:①

Explanation of Differences between U.S. GAAP and Japanese GAAP
Major factors which explain the differences shown in the above table are as follows:
1. Investment securities
The cost basis of certain securities is different under U.S. GAAP and Japanese GAAP due primarily to thefollowing:‰

On October 1, 2005, Mitsubishi Tokyo Financial Group, Inc. (“MTFG”) merged with UFJ Holdings,
Inc. (“UFJ Holdings”), with MTFG being the surviving entity, and was renamed “Mitsubishi UFJ
Financial Group, Inc.” Under U.S. GAAP, in accordance with the guidance on accounting for businesscombinations, the assets and liabilities of companies acquired in purchase transactions are recorded atfair value at the date of acquisition. Therefore, the new cost basis of investment securities, including
available-for-sale and other investment securities, of UFJ Holdings was established and they wererecognized at fair value as of October 1, 2005. Under Japanese GAAP, which was effective as of
October 1, 2005, the new cost basis was not established for such investment securities and they werecarried over at their historical cost basis.

‰

Under U.S. GAAP, other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in earnings for a debt security if anentity has intent to sell such a debt security or if it is more likely than not that the entity will be required
to sell such a debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If not, the credit component ofother-than-temporary impairment on the debt security is recognized in earnings, but the noncredit
component is recognized in other comprehensive income. For marketable equity securities, other-thantemporary impairment is recognized in earnings when a decline in fair value below cost is deemed otherthan temporary. In determining whether a decline in fair value below cost is other-than-temporary, in
addition to the ability and positive intent to hold the investments for a period sufficient to allow for any
anticipated recovery in fair value, factors such as the extent of decline in fair value below cost and thelength of time that the decline has continued are considered. If a decline in fair value below cost exceeds
20% or a decline in fair value below cost has continued for six months or more, such decline is
generally deemed as other-than-temporary. The financial condition and near-term prospects of issuers
are also considered, primarily based on the credit standing of the issuers as determined by the credit
rating system. Under Japanese GAAP, significant declines in the fair value of securities below cost arerecorded in earnings for both debt security and marketable equity security. In determining a significant
decline, the extent of the decline in fair value below cost and credit standing of the issuers are
considered and a decline in the fair value of a security of 50% or more of its cost is considered a strong
indicator of significant decline. Thus, generally, the criteria for recognition of impairment losses oninvestment securities in earnings under U.S. GAAP are stricter than those of Japanese GAAP.

‰

U.S. GAAP requires accounting for the transactions at fair value when investments in acquiredcompanies are exchanged for investments in the surviving companies in accordance with the guidanceon accounting for nonmonetary exchange of cost-method investments, while these transactions havebeen accounted for at cost under Japanese GAAP.

‰

Under U.S. GAAP, changes in the fair value of foreign securities held by BTMU and MUTB arerecognized in earnings since the fair value option was elected for these foreign securities in accordancewith the guidance on accounting for fair value options for financial assets and financial liabilities. Under
Japanese GAAP, only the changes attributable to movements in foreign currency exchange rates arerecognized in earnings and the other changes in the fair value are recognized in other comprehensive
income.

2. Loans
Under U.S. GAAP, loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized
as income over the contractual life of the loans, while under Japanese GAAP, they are primarily recognized inearnings at the time of origination.

3. Allowance for credit losses
Under U.S. GAAP, the credit loss allowance for impaired loans is calculated primarily based on the present
value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market
price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, in accordance with the guidance on
accounting by creditors for the impairment of a loan. Under Japanese GAAP, an allowance is provided for certain
types of impaired loans based on historical loss experience. This difference between U.S. GAAP and Japanese
GAAP generally results in a larger amount of allowance for credit losses under U.S. GAAP.
4. Fixed assets
The differences between Japanese GAAP and U.S. GAAP principally consist of (1) Premises andequipment, and (2) Land revaluation.
(1) Premises and equipment
Under U.S. GAAP, a nonmonetary asset acquired in exchange for another nonmonetary asset is generally
recorded at the fair value of the asset surrendered or that of the asset received, and a gain or loss is recognized on
the exchange. Under Japanese GAAP, the asset received is recorded at the cost of the asset surrendered in
relevant types of exchange transactions, resulting in no gain or loss.
(2) Land revaluation
U.S. GAAP does not allow revaluation of operating assets and requires land to be recorded at cost. Under
Japanese GAAP, land used for business operations of domestic subsidiaries was revalued as of March 31, 1998
for Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, as of March 31, 2002 for The Mitsubishi Trust and Banking Corporation and as ofDecember 31, 2001 for other domestic subsidiaries of MTFG with the corresponding impact recorded directly inequity as well as related deferred tax assets/liabilities, pursuant to the Law concerning Revaluation of Land.
Accordingly, land held on the revaluation dates are recorded at different values.
5. Pension liability
Under both U.S. GAAP and Japanese GAAP, the funded status of defined benefit plans is recognized asassets or liabilities in a consolidated balance sheet, and actuarial gains or losses and prior service costs or benefits
that have not yet been recognized through earnings as net periodic benefit cost are recognized in othercomprehensive income, net of tax, until they are amortized as a component of net periodic benefit cost. Actuarial
gains or losses are amortized based on corridor approach under U.S. GAAP, while they are amortized over a
specified number of years under Japanese GAAP.
6. Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
MUFG utilizes derivatives to manage its exposures to fluctuations in market factors such as interest rates
and foreign exchange rates arising from mismatches in the risk profiles of assets and liabilities. Under U.S.
GAAP, most derivatives used by MUFG are accounted for as trading assets or liabilities because they do not
qualify for hedge accounting under the criteria prescribed in the guidance on accounting for derivative
instruments and hedging activities. Japanese GAAP permits hedge accounting for certain derivative hedging
activities, including portfolio hedges, using less restrictive hedging criteria.
In addition, bifurcation requirements are different between U.S. GAAP and Japanese GAAP. Under
U.S. GAAP, if the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivatives are deemed “clearly andclosely related” to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contracts, the embedded derivatives are notbifurcated from their host contracts. Under Japanese GAAP, the embedded derivatives may be bifurcated fromtheir host contracts if the risk of the embedded derivatives and host contracts are managed separately.

7. Compensated absences
Under U.S. GAAP, in accordance with the guidance on accounting for compensated absences, an employer
is required to accrue a liability for employees’ rights to receive compensation for future absences such as unused
vacations and holidays when certain conditions are met (for example, unexpired vacation benefits that employees
have earned but have not yet taken). Under Japanese GAAP, employers are not required to recognize liabilities
and accordingly, no liabilities are recognized for such short-term employee benefits.
8. Long-term debt
Under U.S. GAAP, in accordance with the guidance on accounting for business combinations, the new costbasis of long-term debt of UFJ Holdings was established and it was recognized at fair value as of October 1,
2005. Under Japanese GAAP, which was effective as of October 1, 2005, the new cost basis was not establishedand the long-term debt was recorded at its historical cost basis.
9. Consolidation
The scope of consolidation is different under U.S. GAAP and Japanese GAAP primarily because, under
U.S. GAAP, the primary beneficiary must consolidate variable interest entities based on variable interests, which
resulted in additional consolidation of certain variable interest entities. Japanese GAAP does not have a conceptof variable interest entities.
On the other hand, certain variable interest entities including funding vehicles, which are consolidated underJapanese GAAP due to the majority ownership of the voting rights, are not consolidated under U.S. GAAP
because MUFG and its consolidated subsidiaries are not their primary beneficiaries.
The breakdown of the impact of the difference on total equity is as follows.

10. Goodwill
Under U.S. GAAP, in accordance with the guidance on accounting for business combinations, identifiable
assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquired company are recorded at fairvalue at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is the excess of the fair value of noncontrolling interest andconsideration transferred, over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is
not amortized, but is subject to an annual impairment test at the reporting unit level, and also reviewed more
frequently if events or changes in circumstance indicate that the goodwill might be impaired. Under Japanese
GAAP, goodwill is the difference between the purchase price consideration and the acquirer’s share of fair valueof the net assets acquired. Goodwill is amortized by straight-line method over the estimated period not exceeding
20 years, and an impairment test is required only if an indication of impairment is identified.
In addition, the acquisition of UFJ Holdings has been accounted for by a method similar topooling-of-interests, and consequently goodwill has not been recognized in accordance with Japanese GAAP,
which was effective as of October 1, 2005.
11. Intangible assets
Under U.S. GAAP, in accordance with the guidance on accounting for business combinations, allidentifiable intangible assets acquired in purchase transactions are recorded at fair value at the date ofacquisition. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful life and reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that their carrying amount may not berecoverable. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment at least annually, and also
reviewed more frequently if events or changes in circumstance indicate that the assets might be impaired. Under
Japanese GAAP, which was effective as of October 1, 2005, intangible assets have not been recognized inconnection with the acquisition of UFJ Holdings.
12. Investments in equity method investees
Under U.S. GAAP, a portion of a difference between the cost of an investment and the amount ofunderlying equity in net assets of an investee is not amortized. A loss in the value of an investment that is otherthan a temporary decline is recognized as an impairment loss. Under Japanese GAAP, goodwill which isincluded in investments in equity method investees is amortized by straight-line method. If a decline in themarket value below the cost is substantial, based on the extent of decline in market value and the credit standingof the issuers, an impairment loss is recognized within the limit of the amount of unamortized goodwill.
