Business Environment
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 prices.
COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted global economic conditions and the environment in which we operate our businesses and is expected to continue to affect economic growth to varying and fluctuating degrees depending on the region and the industry. We intend to continue to closely monitor, and endeavor to effectively deal with, further developments relating to the pandemic. For more information, see "Item 3.D. Key Information―Risk Factors" and "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" as well as "Forward-Looking Statements" in our most recent annual report on Form 20-F.
General Economic Conditions
The global economy in the first half of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 gradually started to recover from the significant downturn experienced in the previous fiscal year as public health restrictions were relaxed and economic activity began to resume following progress in coronavirus vaccinations. However, the global economy still remains uncertain due to concerns over further deterioration in the pandemic, including increases in infection rates with mutant virus strains and low vaccination coverage rates especially in emerging countries.
Japan’s economy showed a mixture of positive and negative trends during the six-month period ended September 30, 2021. Japan’s real gross domestic product, or GDP, improved by 0.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, and contracted by 0.9% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, on a quarter-on-quarter basis. These fluctuations mainly reflected the gradual resumption of economic activity followed by decreases in durable goods consumption and exports due to a shortage of semiconductors resulting in reductions in production of automobiles and other goods. On a year-on-year
basis, Japan’s real GDP improved by 7.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and by 1.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. Japan’s Consumer Price Index, or CPI, fluctuated between negative 0.8% and positive 0.4% on a month-on-month basis and between negative 1.1% and positive 0.2% on a year-over-year basis during the six months ended September 30, 2021. The unemployment rate in Japan remained low while slightly increasing to 3.1% in May 2021 and subsequently decreasing to 2.8% in September 2021. According to Teikoku Databank, a Japanese research institution, the number of companies that filed for legal bankruptcy in Japan between April 2021 and September 2021 was 2,938, a 25.7% decrease from the same period of the previous fiscal year. The total liabilities of companies that filed for legal bankruptcy during the six months ended September 30, 2021 were ¥578 billion, a decrease of 3.8% from the same period of the previous fiscal year. The Japanese economy remains subject to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, continuing deflationary pressure, increasing public debt, intensifying trade conflicts and global competition, declining domestic population, downward pressure on private consumption, and various other factors that could adversely affect economic conditions in Japan.
The U.S. economy continued on a recovering trend during the six months ended September 30, 2021, with U.S. real GDP improving by 6.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and by 2.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, on a quarter-on-quarter annualized basis. On a year-on-year basis, U.S. real GDP improved by 12.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and by 4.9% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The unemployment rate improved to 4.8% in September 2021 but still remained relatively high, particularly compared to 3.5% in February 2020 immediately before the onset of the pandemic. The long-term prospects of the U.S. economy remain uncertain in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in the political leadership and the government’s economic, monetary, trade and foreign relations policies, and various other factors.
The Eurozone economy also exhibited signs of recovery during the six months ended September 30, 2021, with Eurozone real GDP improving by 2.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and by 2.2% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, on a quarter-on-quarter basis. On a year-over-year basis, Eurozone real GDP improved by 14.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and by 3.7% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The unemployment rate in the Eurozone improved to 7.4% in September 2021 compared to 8.6% in September 2020. The Eurozone economy remains subject to various uncertainties, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the process and ramifications of the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union, concerns over Italy’s fiscal policy and health, and other factors.
In Asia excluding Japan, economic conditions in ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) and NIEs (Newly Industrializing Economies) generally improved but the economic improvement remained relatively modest during the six months ended September 30, 2021. The economic conditions of these regions remain subject to various uncertainties, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and fluctuations in the global and local economies as well as geopolitical developments.
Interest Rates
Interest rates remained at historical low levels in Japan under the Bank of Japan’s monetary policy. The yield on 10-year Japanese government bonds fluctuated between 0.006% and 0.126% during the six months ended September 30, 2021. In March 2020, the Bank of Japan introduced a package of COVID-19 emergency measures, including those designed to facilitate corporate financing through lending up to ¥8.0 trillion yen against corporate debt collateral at a 0% interest rate with maturities up to one year and to increase the limit on purchases of commercial paper and corporate bonds by ¥2.0 trillion to ¥7.4 trillion. In April 2020, the Bank of Japan expanded the emergency measure package by raising the lending limit to ¥23.0 trillion while adding household debt as eligible collateral, increasing the limit on purchases of commercial paper and corporate bonds by ¥13.0 trillion to ¥20.4 trillion, and eliminating the limit on purchases of Japanese government bonds. In December 2021, the Bank of Japan announced plans to scale down the emergency measure package by terminating the corporate and household financing program for large corporate and household debt at the end of March 2022, while extending the program for small and medium-sized enterprise debt until the end of September 2022, and gradually reducing the commercial paper and corporate bond purchase limit to ¥5.4 trillion after the end of March 2022.
In the United States, the Federal Open Market Committee decided in December 2021 to maintain the federal funds rate at the current near-zero level while the Committee announced that the current median projection by FRB members for the federal funds rate at the end of calendar year 2022 is 0.9%. In addition, the Committee decided to reduce the monthly pace of its net asset purchase by $20 billion for Treasury securities and $10 billion for agency mortgage-backed securities, and also announced that similar reductions in the pace of net asset purchase would likely be appropriate each month. The 10-year U.S. Treasury bond yield decreased from 1.742% at the end of March 2021 to 1.488% at the end of September 2021, while fluctuating between 1.173% and 1.742% during the period. The yield currently fluctuates around 1.5%.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
The Japanese yen depreciated against the U.S. dollar from ¥110.71 to the U.S. dollar as of March 31, 2021 to ¥111.92 to the U.S. dollar as of September 30, 2021. The Japanese yen has been fluctuating around ¥114 to the U.S. dollar since October 2021.
The Japanese yen was on a generally depreciating trend against the euro during the six months ended September 30, 2021, with the exchange rate being ¥129.86 to the euro as of September 30, 2021 compared to ¥129.80 to the euro as of March 31, 2021. The Japanese yen has been fluctuating around ¥130 to the euro since October 2021.
The Japanese yen was on a generally appreciating trend against the Thai baht during the six months ended September 30, 2021, with the exchange rate being ¥3.30 to the Thai baht as of September 30, 2021 compared to ¥3.54 to the Thai baht as of March 31, 2021. The Japanese yen has been fluctuating around ¥3.50 to the Thai baht since October 2021.
Stock Prices
The closing price of the Nikkei Stock Average, which is the average of 225 blue chip stocks listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, increased from ¥29,178.80 on March 31, 2021 to ¥29,452.66 on September 30, 2021. The closing price of the Nikkei Stock Average reached ¥30,467.75, the highest closing price since August 1990, on February 16, 2021. The closing price of the Nikkei Stock Average has been fluctuating around ¥29,000 since October 2021.
Recent Developments
During the current six-month period, we continued to engage in transactions to ensure adequate capital base and structure, while pursuing strategies to improve our capital management and streamline our group companies. Japan faces some challenges such as a declining birth rate, an aging society and a shrinking population, while low growth has become normalized throughout the world. The environment we operate in has been affected by issues including the COVID-19 pandemic, growing awareness of environmental and social issues, and advances in digital technologies that enable the entry of new competitors in the financial sector. These developments are changing the business environment in significant ways and with unprecedented speed. MUFG seeks to meet these changes with clear visions and to make the most of these challenges as opportunities for growth. Under our medium-term business plan for the three years starting in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022, we aim to leverage our financial and digital strengths to provide value to our stakeholders around the world.
Implementation of Share Repurchase Program and Cancellation of Purchased Shares
We resolved at a meeting of Board of Directors held on November 15, 2021 to repurchase up to the lesser of 300,000,000 shares of our common stock and ¥150.0 billion from November 16, 2021 to March 31, 2022. Under this share repurchase program, we repurchased 35,600,900 shares of our common stock for ¥22,604,804,687 in November 2021. Based on the Japanese GAAP information used to calculate our capital ratios as of September 30, 2021, we estimate that, assuming we repurchase shares of our common stock for ¥150.0 billion pursuant to this program, each of our Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio, our Tier 1 capital ratio and our total capital ratio would decline by approximately 0.1 percentage point. Also, we cancelled 300,000,000 shares of treasury stock on November 30, 2021.
We intend to agilely engage in repurchases of shares of our own stock as a means to return profits to shareholders and improve capital efficiency, taking into account our business performance and capital position, opportunities for growth investments, and market conditions including stock prices. As a general policy, we intend to cancel treasury shares to the extent that such shares exceed approximately 5% of our total issued shares (including treasury shares).
Issuances and Repurchases of TLAC Eligible Senior Debt Securities
During the six months ended September 30, 2021 we issued €0.5 billion, or ¥64.9 billion, and $6.0 billion, or ¥671.5 billion, aggregate principal amount of external TLAC eligible senior debt securities. In October 2021, we issued $3.0 billion, or ¥332.7 billion aggregate principal amount of external TLAC eligible senior debt securities. In November 2021, we issued, in a public offering in Japan, ¥100.0 billion aggregate principal amount of external TLAC eligible senior debt securities.
As of September 30, 2021, our external TLAC ratios were 20.03% on a risk-weighted assets basis and 9.22% on a leverage exposure basis. We are required to maintain external TLAC ratios of 16% on a risk-weighted assets basis and 6% on a leverage exposure basis as of September 30, 2021 and 18% on a risk-weighted assets basis and 6.75% on a leverage exposure basis from March 31, 2022. See “Capital Adequacy” below and “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan—Total loss-absorbing capacity” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
Issuances of Basel III-Compliant Domestic Subordinated Bonds
In October 2021, we issued, in a public offering in Japan, ¥40.0 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured perpetual subordinated Additional Tier 1 notes. These notes are subject to our discretion to cease interest 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.
Agreement to Sell MUFG Union Bank and Invest in Shares of U.S. Bancorp
In September 2021, we agreed to the sale of all shares in MUFG Union Bank, N.A., our wholly-owned primary operating subsidiary in the United States, to U.S. Bancorp. The businesses of MUFG Union Bank that we will transfer to U.S. Bancorp exclude the Global Corporate & Investment Banking (GCIB) business, the Global Markets business to the extent related to the GCIB business and certain assets and liabilities etc. that are part of shared middle and back office functions etc. The transaction value is expected to be approximately $17.6 billion consisting of $8.0 billion of consideration to be paid by U.S. Bancorp in the form of $5.5 billion in cash and 44,374,155 shares of U.S. Bancorp and $9.6 billion of capital to be distributed through a dividend or share repurchase by MUFG Union Bank prior to the closing of the transaction. We expect to own approximately 2.9% of U.S. Bancorp’s outstanding shares immediately after the transaction. The closing of the transaction is expected to occur in the first half of calendar year 2022, subject to certain conditions, including the approval from relevant regulators. Through this transaction, we aim to maximize shareholder value by improving our capital efficiency.
For financial information relating to MUFG Union Bank, see Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS System Integration Plan
In April 2021, Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS announced a plan to integrate its credit card settlement systems that have been maintained separately for various credit card brands. Based on a fundamental review of its system integration plan in March 2019, Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS plans to integrate the systems currently used for the DC credit card brand and the NICOS credit card brand into the system currently used for the MUFG card brand. The plan has an estimated budget of approximately ¥140.0 billion through the end of calendar year 2030. The plan may be modified to flexibly respond to changes in the business environment.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with 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 to understanding our operating and financial review and prospects. Critical accounting estimates include our allowance for credit losses, allowance for repayment of excess interest, impairment on goodwill, and valuation of financial instruments. For a further discussion of our critical accounting estimates, see our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021

Net income attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group | ¥ | 776.9 | | | ¥ | 737.6 | | | (5.1) | % |
Net income attributable to Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group decreased 5.1% mainly due to a decrease in non-interest income reflecting smaller net gains from marketable equity securities because the increases in Japanese stock prices were smaller during the current six-month period compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.
Net interest income decreased 4.9% mainly because U.S. and Japanese interest rates were lower during the current six-month period compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year as the central banks of major economies, including the FRB, maintained their near-zero interest rate policies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The average interest rate on total interest-earning assets declined 0.20 percentage points. On foreign interest-earning assets, in particular, the average interest rate declined 0.44 percentage points. In addition, the average balance of foreign interest-earning assets decreased 1.0%.
Reversal of credit losses was recorded for the current six-month period mainly due to improvements in economic trends in Japan and the United States having a positive impact on the corporate loan portfolios of MUFG Bank and MUFG Union Bank.
Non-interest income decreased 18.8% primarily due to the decrease in net gains on marketable equity securities discussed above and a decrease in trading account profits reflecting net losses on interest rate and other derivatives contracts, while non-interest expense decreased 5.5%.

Net interest income as a percentage of total interest-earning assets | | | | | 0.77 | % | | | | | | 0.71 | % | | | | | | (0.06) | |
Net interest income decreased 4.9% primarily due to lower average interest rates on foreign interest-earning assets. Our average interest rate spread (which is the average interest rate on interest-earning assets less the average interest rate on interest-bearing liabilities) decreased 0.04 percentage points.
As the central banks of major economies, including the FRB, maintained their near-zero interest rate policies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, U.S. and Japanese interest rates were lower during the current six-month period compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. As a result, the average interest rate on foreign interest-earning assets decreased 0.44 percentage points, and foreign interest income decreased 21.7%. Foreign interest expense decreased 51.7% primarily as a result of a 0.48 percentage point decrease in the average interest rate on foreign interest-bearing liabilities. However, the impact of the interest rate decrease on foreign interest income was larger than the impact of the interest rate decrease on foreign interest expense because the average balance of foreign interest-earning assets was approximately 1.5 times the average balance of foreign interest-bearing liabilities. The average balance of foreign interest-bearing liabilities increased 3.7%, while the average balance of foreign interest-earning assets decreased 1.0% mainly due to lower volumes of loans.
Domestic interest income decreased 0.9% due to the lower average interest rate, despite a 4.7% increase in the average balance of domestic interest-earning assets, including investment securities, in particular short-term Japanese government bonds. Domestic interest expense decreased 19.2% mainly due to lower interest expenses on call money, funds purchased, and payables under repurchase agreements.
Provision for (reversal of) credit losses
We recorded ¥10.8 billion of reversal of credit losses for the current six-month period, compared to ¥209.8 billion of provision for credit losses for the same period of the prior fiscal year. Reversal of credit losses of ¥36.4 billion and ¥38.6 billion was recorded in the Commercial segment and in the MUFG Americas Holdings segment, respectively, while ¥42.8 billion of provision for credit losses was recorded in the Krungsri segment. Improving economic trends particularly in Japan and the United States had a positive impact on the Commercial segment and the MUAH segment, while worsening economic trends due to the resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand had a negative impact on the Krungsri segment. The Commercial segment was positively affected by improvements in the financial performance of large borrowers in the automobile-related industries as sales of automobiles began to recover. The MUFG Americas Holdings segment was positively affected by recent improvements in U.S. macroeconomic trends, which had a significantly positive impact on our wholesale loan portfolio. However, the Krungsri segment was negatively affected by the negative impact of the COVID-19 on our small and medium-sized enterprise loan portfolio and retail, including automobile and mortgage, loan portfolio although such negative impact was mitigated by the positive impact of government financial support measures and loan rescheduling pursuant to extended government guidance.

Non-interest income decreased mainly due to decreases in net investment securities gains and net trading account profits partially offset by increases in fees and commissions income and net equity in earnings of equity method investees.
Fees and commissions income
Fees and commissions income increased primarily due to an increase in fees and commissions on administration and management services for investment funds. The increase was mainly attributable to higher performance fees reflecting strong investment returns of First Sentier Investors as well as an increase in fund administration revenue at the trust banking subsidiaries.

Total | ¥ | 69.4 | | | ¥ | 5.4 | | | (92.2) | % |
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.
•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 reporting period. 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. See Note 18 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Net foreign gains for the current six-month period decreased mainly due to net foreign exchange losses on other than derivative contracts reflecting the net negative impact of fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rates on the Japanese yen translated amounts of assets and liabilities of our commercial banking subsidiaries as the Japanese yen depreciated against other major currencies on a spot rate basis between March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021. The decrease in net foreign exchange losses on other than derivative contracts were substantially offset by an increase in net foreign exchange gains related to the fair value option applied to foreign currency-denominated trading account securities such as U.S. Treasury bonds as the Japanese yen depreciated against the U.S. dollar from ¥110.71 to the U.S. dollar as of March 31, 2021 to ¥111.92 to the U.S. dollar as of September 30, 2021, while the Japanese yen appreciated against the U.S. dollar during the same period of the previous fiscal year, resulting in net foreign exchange losses on U.S. dollar-denominated trading account securities under the fair value option for the same period.

Total | ¥ | 244.3 | | | ¥ | 59.2 | | | (75.8) | % |
Trading account assets and liabilities are carried at fair value and changes in the value of trading account assets 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 of certain accounting rules.
Of the two categories, trading account assets relating to the application of certain accounting rules represent a larger portion of our trading account profits for the current six-month period.
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 a customer, a dealer offers a price which includes certain transaction fees, often referred to as the “margin” to the market price. The margin is determined by considering factors such as administrative costs, transaction amount and liquidity of the applicable financial product. Once the customer agrees to the offered price, the deal is completed, 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 the market. 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 price fluctuations of stocks held in connection with customer transactions; 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 than for 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 in accordance 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.
The decrease in net trading account profits for the current six-month period mainly reflected an increase in net losses on equity contracts due to losses on equity option transactions with customers and a decrease in net profits on interest rate contracts due to losses on interest rate swaps at our securities subsidiaries. These negative impacts were partially offset by an increase in net profits on trading account securities reflecting profits on U.S. equity and fixed income trading at our securities subsidiaries.
Net investment securities gains (losses)
Net investment securities gains (losses) include net gains (losses) on sales of available-for-sale debt securities, impairment losses on available-for-sale debt securities, and net gains (losses) from marketable equity securities. Impairment loss on an available-for-sale debt security is recognized as part of investment securities losses if the fair value of such security is below its amortized cost basis and (1) such debt security is held by us with the intent to sell or (2) it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell such debt security before recovering its amortized cost basis. In other circumstances where the fair value of available-for-sale debt securities is less than the amortized cost basis, we recognize the credit component of the impairment loss as part of investment securities losses, and record an allowance for credit losses to the same extent, while recording the noncredit component of the impairment loss in accumulated other comprehensive losses. Net gains (losses) from marketable equity securities include net gains (losses) on sales of marketable equity securities as well as unrealized gains (losses) on such securities.
Net investment securities gains were ¥335.3 billion for the current six-month period, compared to ¥683.7 billion for the same period of the prior fiscal year. This was mainly because stock prices in Japan and the United States increased to smaller degrees during the current six-month period, compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.
Net equity in earnings of equity method investees
Net equity in earnings of equity method investees for the current six-month period was ¥216.1 billion, compared to ¥140.4 billion for the same period of the prior fiscal year, reflecting higher earnings of our equity method investees of our banking subsidiaries and higher earnings of Morgan Stanley.

Non-interest expense decreased 5.5% mainly due to decreases in impairment of goodwill and other non-interest expenses.
Impairment of goodwill
We recognized ¥106.5 billion of impairment loss on goodwill relating to MUFG Americas Holdings for the six months ended September 30, 2020. Due to negative changes in the economic environment triggered by COVID-19, our previous cash flow forecasts for certain segments were revised downward. For the current six-month period, we did not recognize any impairment of goodwill.
Given the three-month difference between our consolidated reporting period and the reporting period of some of our subsidiaries, including MUFG Americas Holdings, our fair value assessment with respect to such subsidiaries after June 30 of each period is reflected in our consolidated financial statements for a period ending after September 30 of each period. See Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
Other non-interest expenses
Other non-interest expenses decreased ¥54.5 billion to ¥122.9 billion for the current six-month period compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease was due to the absence of the impairment losses on operating lease assets recorded at foreign branches of MUFG Bank for the six-month period of the prior fiscal year.

Effective income tax rate | 31.9 | % | | 28.0 | % | | — | |
Combined normal effective statutory tax rate | 30.6 | % | | 30.6 | % | | — | |
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 30.6% for the six months
ended September 30, 2020 and 2021. Foreign subsidiaries are subject to income taxes of the jurisdictions in which they operate. These taxes are reflected in the effective income tax rate.
For the six months ended September 30, 2021, the effective income tax rate was 28.0%, which was 2.6 percentage points lower than the combined normal effective statutory tax rate of 30.6%. This lower effective income tax rate was partly due to lower tax rates applicable to income of subsidiaries, which resulted in a decrease of ¥15.0 billion in income tax expense and a decrease of 1.4 percentage points in the effective income tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2021. Another factor contributing the lower effective income tax rate was foreign tax credit, which resulted in a decrease of ¥13.8 billion in income tax expense and a decrease of 1.3 percentage points in the effective income tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2021.
For the six months ended September 30, 2020, the effective income tax rate was 31.9%, which was 1.3 percentage points higher than the combined normal effective statutory tax rate of 30.6%. This higher effective income tax rate was primarily due to foreign tax payments, which resulted in an increase of ¥31.5 billion in income tax expense and an increase of 2.8 percentage points in the effective income tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2020. Another factor causing the higher effective income tax rate was the recognition of goodwill impairment losses discussed above, which had the effect of decreasing our income before income tax expense under U.S. GAAP by ¥27.9 billion and resulted in an increase of 2.4 percentage points in the effective income tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2020, since such losses were not deductible in computing our taxable income under Japanese tax law. These impacts were partially offset by a decrease of 1.4 percentage points in the effective income tax rate resulting from our receipt of nontaxable dividends, which resulted in a decrease of ¥15.9 billion in income tax expense for the six months ended September 30, 2020. Under Japanese tax law, a certain percentage of dividends received is considered nontaxable and excluded from gross revenue in computing 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.
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 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 unaudited condensed 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 for (reversal of) credit losses (primarily equivalent to the formula allowance under U.S. GAAP), foreign exchange gains (losses) and investment securities gains (losses). For a reconciliation of operating profit under the internal management reporting system to income before income tax expense shown on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income, see Note 17 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We do not use information on the segments’ total assets to allocate our resources and assess performance. Accordingly, business segment information on total assets is not presented.
We have reorganized our business groups (previously consisting of Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group, Japanese Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group, Global Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group, Global Commercial Banking Business Group, Asset Management & Investor Services Business Group, Global Markets Business Group and Other) under our three-year medium-term business plan commencing on April 1, 2021, in light of changes in the business environment, including the digital shift in society. A new Digital Service Business Group was established on April 1, 2021 under the medium-term business plan mainly by separating the digital-based businesses that previously belonged to the Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group in an effort to better integrate the expertise and capabilities of our subsidiaries to respond to the needs of our customers more effectively and efficiently, and we changed our reporting segments to the current segmentation based on the reorganized business groups. We have changed the method of allocation of net revenue and operating expenses among reporting segments mainly in connection with the establishment of the Digital Service Business Group.
In addition. we made modifications to our internal management accounting rules and practices, effective April 1, 2021, including adjustments relating to the interest rate on core deposits in the Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group under the medium-term business plan. The adjustments resulted in a decrease in net revenue in the Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group and a corresponding, offsetting increase of the same amount in net revenue in Other.
These changes had the following impact on our previously reported business segment information for the six months ended September 30, 2020:
•increasing the operating profits of Other, the Global Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group, the Global Commercial Banking Business Group and the Global Markets Business Group by ¥6.5 billion, ¥2.4 billion, ¥0.9 billion and ¥0.9 billion, respectively, and
•reducing the operating profits of the Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group, the Asset Management & Investor Services Business Group and the Japanese Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group by ¥104.6 billion, ¥1.3 billion and ¥0.6 billion, respectively.
Prior period business segment information has been restated to enable comparison between the relevant amounts for the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021.

Note:
(1)“BK and TB” is a sum of MUFG Bank on a stand-alone basis and Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking on a stand-alone basis.
Digital Service Business Group—Covers digital-based non-face-to-face businesses servicing “mass-segment” customers, or retail customers and small and medium-sized enterprise customers, of Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS, other consumer finance companies, and MUFG Bank in Japan. Its net revenue mainly consists of interest income from lending and deposit-taking operations and fees relating to credit card settlement and consumer financing products and services.
Net revenue decreased mainly due to decreases in consumer finance business and credit card revenue which were adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, foreign exchange fees decreased since foreign exchange demand weakened in the COVID-19 environment. Money transfer revenue also decreased since customers shifted to
internet banking where money transfer fees are lower than those for money transfers through branches or ATMs. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to implementation of the sales channel reform as part of our digital transformation strategy for efficiency.
Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group—Covers the domestic retail and commercial banking businesses. This business group mainly offers retail customers (with a strategic focus on high net-worth individuals) and small and medium-sized enterprise customers in Japan an extensive array of commercial banking, trust banking and securities products and services. Its net revenue mainly consists of interest income from lending and deposit-taking operations and fees relating to domestic and foreign exchange settlement services and wealth management solutions, including asset management, asset and business succession transfer and real estate services.
Net revenue increased mainly due to an increase in investment product sales as well as strong performance of our real estate business, derivative solutions business and primary capital markets business. In addition, our domestic small and medium-sized enterprise lending spread improved slightly. Operating expenses remained steady despite higher revenue-related expenses.
Japanese Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group—Covers the large Japanese corporate businesses. This business group offers large Japanese corporations advanced financial solutions designed to respond to their diversified and globalized needs and to contribute to their business and financial strategies through the global network of our group companies. Its net revenue mainly consists of interest income from lending and deposit-taking operations and fees relating to financing, investment banking, real estate and stock transfer services for large Japanese corporate customers.
Net revenue increased mainly due to an increase in loan interest income reflecting an improvement in our lending spread as well as an increase in income from primary market securities transactions, while the solutions business was stagnant. The increase in operating expenses primarily resulted from the impact of foreign exchange translation on overseas expenses.
Global Commercial Banking Business Group—Covers the retail and commercial banking businesses of MUFG Union Bank, Krungsri and, PT Bank Danamon Indonesia, Tbk. This business group offers a comprehensive array of financial products and services such as loans, deposits, fund transfers, investments and asset management services for local retail, small and medium-sized enterprise, and corporate customers across the Asia-Pacific region. Its revenue mainly consists of interest income from lending and deposit-taking operations and fees from remittances and transfers, consumer finance and wealth-related services for individual and small to medium-sized corporate customers of MUFG Union Bank, Krungsri and Bank Danamon.
Net revenue decreased mainly due to the lower net interest income in MUFG Union Bank and Krungsri reflecting declines in the policy interest rates in the United States and Thailand as well as a decrease in the automobile loan balance of Bank Danamon. The increase in operating expenses primarily resulted from expenditures for system development and regulatory compliance.
Asset Management & Investor Services Business Group—Covers the asset management and asset administration businesses of Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking, MUFG Bank and First Sentier Investors. By integrating the trust banking expertise of Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking and the global strengths of MUFG Bank, the business group offers a full range of asset management and administration services for corporations and pension funds, including pension fund management and administration, advice on pension structures, and payments to beneficiaries, and also offers investment trusts for retail customers. Its net revenue mainly consists of fees from asset management and administration services for products, such as pension trusts and mutual funds.
Net revenue increased primarily due to an increase in performance fees reflecting strong investment returns as well as an increase in fund administration revenue from bundled services to global investors. The increase in operating expenses primarily resulted from additional personnel expenses to support increased business, especially overseas investor services.
Global Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group—Covers the global corporate, investment and transaction banking businesses of MUFG Bank and Mitsubishi UFJ Securities Holdings. Through a global network of offices and branches, this business group provides non-Japanese large corporate and financial institution customers outside Japan with a comprehensive set of solutions that meet their increasingly diverse and sophisticated financing needs. Its net revenue mainly consists of interest income from lending and deposit-taking operations, and fees and commissions from investment banking services and foreign exchange and derivatives services.
Net revenue increased mainly due to higher interest income from lending and deposit-taking operations reflecting an improvement in our lending spread as well as higher commissions reflecting an increase in project finance deals. The increase in operating expense was mainly due to implementation of recruitment and other operations enhancement projects which were planned for the previous fiscal year but were deferred to the current fiscal year.
Global Markets Business Group—Covers the customer business and the treasury operations of MUFG Bank, Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking and Mitsubishi UFJ Securities Holdings. The customer business includes sales and trading in fixed income instruments, currencies, equities and other investment products as well as origination and distribution of financial products. The treasury operations include asset and liability management as well as global investments for the MUFG Group.
Net revenue decreased mainly due to the absence of net gains on debt securities earned when interest rates declined in the previous fiscal year, a decrease in flow transactions in the customer business, and net losses on overseas securities. The increase in operating expense reflected the launch of a new long-term, diversified portfolio management strategy, partially offset by the impact of our cost reduction measures, including overseas personnel cost reductions.
Other—Consists mainly of the corporate centers of MUFG, MUFG Bank, Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking and Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities. The elimination of duplicated amounts of net revenues among business segments is also reflected in Other.
Financial Condition
Total Assets
Our total assets as of September 30, 2021 were ¥353,793.1 billion, a decrease of ¥31.5 billion from ¥353,824.6 billion as of March 31, 2021, mainly due to a ¥9,191.5 billion decrease in net loans and a ¥1,509.8 billion decrease in call loans, funds sold, and receivables under resale agreements. These decreases were substantially offset by a ¥10,107.4 billion increase in assets classified as Other assets on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The assets of MUFG Union Bank which will be transferred to U.S. Bancorp were reclassified as assets held for sale and included in Other assets on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021. Such assets were ¥11,708.5 billion consisting of ¥6,359.7 billion of loans, net of allowance for credit losses, ¥3,127.2 billion of investment securities, ¥1,288.5 billion of interest-bearing deposits in other banks and ¥933.1 billion of other assets.

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.

(3)The above table includes loans held for sale of ¥353.1 billion and ¥325.9 billion as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively, which are carried at the lower of cost or fair value.
Our total loan balance as of September 30, 2021 decreased 8.1% compared to March 31, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, our total loans accounted for 30.1% of total assets, compared to 32.7% of total assets as of March 31, 2021. Our domestic loan balances decreased mainly due to repayments of loans which had temporarily increased due to the increased funding needs of customers who were negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The foreign loan balance decreased due to repayments by customers and a decrease in loan originations because of improvements in the economic environment, mainly in the United States. In addition, the loans of MUFG Union Bank to be transferred to U.S. Bancorp were reclassified as assets held for sale and included in Other assets on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021. As a percentage of total loans before unearned income, net unamortized premiums and net deferred loan fees, between March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, domestic loans decreased from 58.9% to 58.8%, while foreign loans increased from 41.1% to 41.2%.
We classify our loan portfolio into the following portfolio segments—Commercial, Residential, Card, MUFG Americas Holdings, Krungsri, and Other based on the grouping to determine the allowance for credit losses. The Other segment consists primarily of Bank Danamon. We further classify the Commercial segment into Domestic and Foreign classes based on initial measurement attributes, risk characteristics, and method of monitoring and assessing credit risk.

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, we evaluate 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, 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 (internal borrower 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 and financial condition, including business problems requiring long-term solutions, or the borrower’s loans are troubled debt restructurings (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 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, 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” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
The accrual status is a primary credit quality indicator for loans within the Residential segment, the Card segment and the Other segment as well as consumer loans within the MUFG Americas Holdings segment. The accrual status of these loans is determined based on the number of delinquent payments.
Commercial loans within the MUFG Americas Holdings segment are categorized as either pass or criticized based on the internal credit rating assigned to each borrower. Criticized credits are those that are internally risk graded as Special 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 in a 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 satisfaction of the debt. A credit classified as Doubtful has critical weaknesses that make full collection improbable on the basis of currently existing facts and conditions.
Loans within the Krungsri segment are categorized as Performing, Under-Performing or Non-Performing based on their delinquency status. Loans categorized as Under-Performing generally represent those that have significant increases in credit risk since origination, including loans that are contractually past due 30 days or more. Loans categorized as Non-Performing generally represent those that have been impaired, including loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more.
For the Commercial, Residential and Card segments, credit quality indicators as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021 are based on information as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021 respectively. For the MUFG Americas Holdings, Krungsri and Other segments, credit quality indicators as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021 are generally based on information as of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

We recorded ¥10.8 billion of reversal of credit losses for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared to ¥209.8 billion of provision for credit losses for the same period of the previous fiscal year. Our total allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2021 was ¥1,171.5 billion, a decrease of ¥176.9 billion from ¥1,348.4 billion as of March 31, 2021. The total allowance for credit losses represented 1.10% of the total loan balance as of September 30, 2021, compared to 1.17% as of March 31, 2021.
Between March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, the balance of allowance for credit losses decreased in all of the segments except Krungsri. Improving economic trends particularly in Japan and the United States had a positive impact on the Commercial segment and the MUAH segment, while worsening economic trends due to the resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand had a negative impact on the Krungsri segment. In addition, the balance of allowance for credit losses in the MUAH segment decreased ¥72.1 billion representing the amount of allowance for credit losses relating to the loans of MUFG Union Bank to be transferred to U.S. Bancorp, which were reclassified as assets held for sale and included in Other assets on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2021. Significant trends in our portfolio segments are discussed below.
Commercial segment—We recorded ¥36.4 billion of reversal of credit losses for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared to ¥37.2 billion of provision for credit losses for the same period of the previous fiscal year. This positive change was mainly due to improvements in the financial performance of large borrowers in the automobile-related industries as sales of automobiles began to recover. The ratio of loans classified as Close Watch to total loans decreased to 2.86% as of September 30, 2021 from 3.02% as of March 31, 2021. The ratio of loans classified as Likely to become Bankrupt or Legally/Virtually Bankrupt to total loans in the segment decreased to 0.57% as of September 30, 2021 from 0.58% as of March 31, 2021. The ratio of allowance for credit losses to the total loan balance in this segment decreased to 0.81% as of September 30, 2021 from 0.85% as of March 31, 2021.
MUFG Americas Holdings segment—We recorded ¥38.6 billion of reversal of credit losses for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared to ¥89.8 billion of provision for credit losses for the same period of the previous fiscal year. This positive change mainly reflected recent improvements in U.S. macroeconomic indicators. Such improvements in economic trends had a significantly positive impact on our wholesale loan portfolio. The ratio of loans classified as Special Mention or below and Nonaccrual to total loans in the segment decreased to 4.03% as of September 30, 2021 from 5.03% as of March 31, 2021. The ratio of allowance for credit losses to the total loan balance in this segment
decreased to 0.98% as of September 30, 2021 from 1.55% as of March 31, 2021. These ratios reflect the reclassification of the loans of MUFG Union Bank as of September 30, 2021, discussed above.
Krungsri segment—We recorded ¥42.8 billion of provision for credit losses for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared to ¥47.5 billion of provision for credit losses for the same period of the previous fiscal year. The provision recorded for the current six-month period reflected the negative impact of the resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand. Such negative impact on our small and medium-sized enterprise loan portfolio and retail, including automobile and mortgage, loan portfolio was mitigated by the positive impact of government financial support measures and loan rescheduling pursuant to extended government guidance. The ratio of loans classified as Under-Performing or below to total loans in the segment increased to 10.97% as of September 30, 2021 from 10.07% as of March 31, 2021. The ratio of allowance for credit losses to the total loan balance in this segment increased to 4.59% as of September 30, 2021 from 4.44% as of March 31, 2021.
We adopted the new guidance on measurement of credit losses on financial instruments on April 1, 2020. The new guidance replaces the incurred losses impairment methodology applied under the previous standard with a current expected credit loss model where adjustments are made to our allowance for credit losses based on management’s current estimate of expected credit losses on loans by considering a broader range of reasonable and supportable information, including macroeconomic variables such as GDP growth and unemployment rates, to estimate credit losses. In the immediately above tables, the “effect of adopting the new guidance on measurement of credit losses on financial instruments” represents the effect of application of the new guidance to our loan portfolio as of April 1, 2020, and the “provision for (reversal of) credit losses” for the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021 represents the amount of provision for, or reversal of, credit losses recorded under the new guidance for each period. Provision for, and reversal of, credit losses for the current six-month period mainly reflected management’s consideration of, among other information, expected changes in the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our loan portfolio as well as the impact of extensions of measurement periods used in our loss-forecasting models under the new guidance. For more information on the new guidance, see Note 1 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. See also “—Business Environment—Covid-19 Pandemic.”
When there is an improvement in asset quality, reversal of credit losses is recorded in our consolidated statements of income to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level management deems appropriate. Although we reversed allowance for credit losses for certain loan portfolio segments in recent periods, we have historically provided for credit losses, and in future periods we may need to recognize a provision for credit losses. See “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Credit Risk—We may suffer additional credit-related losses in the future if our borrowers are unable to repay their loans as expected or if the measures we take in reaction to, or in anticipation of, our borrowers’ deteriorating repayment abilities prove inappropriate or insufficient.” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021."
Allowance policy
We apply the current expected credit loss model that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information under Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, to estimate credit losses. For more information on the current expected credit loss model, see Note 1 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
We maintain an allowance for credit losses to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. We have divided our allowance for credit losses into six portfolio segments—Commercial, Residential, Card, MUFG Americas Holdings, Krungsri and Other. Our allowance policy for the major portfolio segments—Commercial, Residential, Card, MUFG Americas Holdings and Krungsri—is summarized below.
For all portfolio segments, key elements relating to the policies and discipline used in determining the allowance for credit losses are our credit classification and related borrower categorization process, which are closely linked to the risk grading standards set by the Japanese regulatory authorities for asset evaluation and assessment, 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” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
For the Commercial, MUFG Americas Holdings and Krungsri segments, our allowance for credit losses primarily consists of allocated 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 MUFG Americas Holdings 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 allocated allowance. For the Residential and Card segments, the loans are smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are pooled 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 in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 and “—Critical Accounting Estimates—Allowance for Credit Losses” above.
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 in determining the allowance for credit losses on loans.
Nonaccrual loans
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). Loans are also placed in nonaccrual status 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 more with respect to loans within the Card, MUFG Americas Holdings, Krungsri and Other segments, and six months or more with respect to loans within the Residential segment.
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” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.

(2)The above table does not include loans held for sale of ¥8.6 billion and ¥14.8 billion as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively, and includes loans in transferred business of MUFG Union Bank of ¥55.0 billion at September 30, 2021. See Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.
Total nonaccrual loans decreased ¥42.3 billion between March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, due to a decrease in the Commercial segment. The decrease in the Commercial segment was mainly due to improvements in the financial performance of large borrowers in the automobile-related industries as sales of automobiles began to recover.
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 debt securities. Our investment in Japanese government bonds is a part of our asset and liability management policy with respect to investing the amount of Japanese yen-denominated funds exceeding our net loans. The percentage of our holding of available-for-sale Japanese government bonds to the total investment securities was 63.9% as of September 30, 2021, compared to 61.6% as of March 31, 2021 primarily due to an increase in the holding of short-term Japanese government bonds at MUFG Bank. We also hold Japanese government bonds that are classified as held-to-maturity debt securities, which accounted for 1.9% of the total investment securities as of September 30, 2021. Our total investment securities as of September 30, 2021 were ¥56,684.2 billion, a decrease of ¥560.3 billion as of March 31, 2021. The decrease was mainly because of the reclassification of held-to-maturity debt securities of ¥858.0 billion held by MUFG Union Bank as assets held for sale, which are included in Other assets.
Historically, we have held equity securities of some of our customers primarily for strategic purposes, in particular to maintain long-term relationships with these customers. We continue to focus on reducing our investment 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, 2021 and September 30, 2021, the aggregate book value of our marketable equity securities under Japanese GAAP satisfied the requirements of the legislation prohibiting banks from holding equity securities in excess of their Tier 1 capital. In May 2021, we announced that we would aim to reduce the balance of equity securities held for strategic purposes valued under Japanese GAAP by approximately ¥300.0 billion within three years. During the current six-month period, we sold down ¥460.0 billion of equity securities held in our strategic equity investment portfolio valued under Japanese GAAP. Various factors, including market conditions, may affect the amount of equity securities we should sell and our ability to achieve the target as planned.

See Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.
Net unrealized gains on available-for-sale debt securities decreased 15.4% primarily due to a decrease in net unrealized gains on foreign government and official institution bonds. Net unrealized gains on foreign government and official institution bonds decreased reflecting unrealized losses in MUFG Americas Holdings since U.S. long-term interest rates increased at the end of June 2021 compared to the end of December 2020. Net unrealized gains on mortgage-backed securities in MUFG Americas Holdings decreased also for the same reason.
The total amortized cost of available-for-sale debt securities increased 4.9% reflecting the increases in all categories of available-for-sale debt securities other than corporate bonds. The amortized cost of Japanese government and Japanese government agency bonds increased 2.7% mainly because of purchases of such bonds by our banking subsidiaries.

(1)These securities are mainly issued by public companies, including preferred stocks issued by Morgan Stanley, and other unlisted preferred securities issued by several companies. Those securities are primarily carried at cost.
(2)These securities are equity securities issued by unlisted companies other than unlisted preferred securities. Those securities are primarily carried at cost.
(3)These investment securities are held by certain subsidiaries subject to specialized industry accounting principles for investment companies and brokers and dealers, and are measured at fair value.
(4)This table includes equity securities relating to transferred business of MUFG Union Bank, such as Marketable equity securities of ¥2.7 billion, which are included in Other assets on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2021. See Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.
Equity securities increased 1.5% mainly because marketable equity securities increased slightly as the stock prices in Japan increased towards September 30, 2021. Marketable equity securities largely consist of listed equity securities in Japan. The decrease in unlisted preferred securities was primarily attributable to the reclassification of certain securities at MUFG Bank.
Cash and Due from Banks, and Interest-earning Deposits in Other Banks
Cash and due from banks increased ¥492.4 billion to ¥50,469.9 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥49,977.5 billion as of March 31, 2021. This increase was primarily because of an increase in deposits with the Bank of Japan.
Interest-earning deposits in other banks decreased ¥205.6 billion to ¥53,141.1 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥53,346.7 billion as of March 31, 2021. This decrease was mainly because of a decrease in deposits with other overseas banks due to the reclassification of such deposits held by MUFG Union Bank subject to the transfer described above as assets held for sale, which are included in Other assets.
Receivables under Resale Agreements
Receivables under resale agreements decreased ¥1,709.3 billion to ¥12,070.5 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥13,779.8 billion as of March 31, 2021. This decrease was mainly because of a decrease in short-term funding transactions following the temporary significant increase in funding needs in the market caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Trading Account Assets
Trading account assets increased ¥893.0 billion to ¥45,337.4 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥44,444.4 billion as of March 31, 2021. Trading account assets consist of trading account securities and trading derivative assets. Trading account securities increased ¥3,042.5 billion to ¥35,505.5 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥32,463.0 billion as of March 31, 2021 mainly due to an increase in our trading securities portfolio denominated in foreign currencies primarily reflecting the foreign exchange translation impact. Trading derivative assets decreased ¥2,149.5 billion to ¥9,831.9 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥11,981.4 billion as of March 31, 2021 mainly due to long-term interest rate fluctuations in Japan.
Total Liabilities
As of September 30, 2021, total liabilities were ¥336,692.3 billion, a decrease of ¥887.8 billion from ¥337,580.1 billion as of March 31, 2021. This was primarily due to a decrease of ¥9,263.8 billion in total deposits and a decrease of ¥2,490.5 billion in trading account liabilities. These decreases were substantially offset by an increase of ¥11,380.6 billion in liabilities classified as Other liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The liabilities of MUFG Union Bank which will be transferred to U.S. Bancorp were reclassified as liabilities held for sale and included in Other liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021. Such liabilities were ¥10,874.6 billion consisting of ¥9,933.0 billion of deposits and ¥941.6 billion of other liabilities.
Deposits
Deposits are our primary source of funds. The balance of deposits decreased ¥9,263.8 billion to ¥219,943.1 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥229,206.9 billion as of March 31, 2021. The decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in foreign deposits due to the reclassification of the deposits of MUFG Union Bank as of September 30, 2021 described above.
The total average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased ¥13,293.6 billion to ¥192,523.2 billion for the six months ended September 30, 2021 from ¥179,229.6 billion for the same period of the previous fiscal year, mainly due to an increase in domestic deposits. The average balance includes the deposits relating to the business of MUFG Union Bank to be transferred to U.S. Bancorp.
Payables under Repurchase Agreements
Payables under repurchase agreements increased ¥921.4 billion to ¥25,489.3 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥24,567.9 billion as of March 31, 2021. This increase was mainly because of a slight increase in our short-term funding needs.
Other Short-Term Borrowings
Other short-term borrowings decreased ¥223.5 billion to ¥13,964.2 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥14,187.7 billion as of March 31, 2021. This decrease was mainly due to repayment of borrowings from the Bank of Japan by MUFG Bank.
Trading Account Liabilities
Trading account liabilities decreased ¥2,490.5 billion to ¥9,527.1 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥12,017.6 billion as of March 31, 2021. This decrease was mainly due to a decrease in foreign exchange derivatives caused by the depreciation of the Japanese yen against other major foreign currencies.
Long-term Debt
Long-term debt decreased ¥1,675.5 billion to ¥33,482.2 billion as of September 30, 2021 from ¥35,157.7 billion as of March 31, 2021. This decrease was mainly due to redemption of long-term debt by MUFG Bank. The average balance of long-term debt for the six months ended September 30, 2021 was ¥34,859.9 billion, an increase of ¥6,794.9 billion from ¥28,065.0 billion for the same period of the previous fiscal year. The average balance includes the long-term debt relating to the business of MUFG Union Bank to be transferred to U.S. Bancorp.
Sources of Funding and Liquidity
Our primary source of liquidity is from a large balance of deposits, mainly ordinary deposits, certificates of deposit and time deposits. Time deposits have historically shown a high rollover rate among our corporate customers and individual depositors. The average deposit balance, including MUFG Union Bank, increased to ¥231,239.5 billion for the current six-month period from ¥213,742.2 billion for the same period of the prior fiscal year. These deposits provide us with a sizable source of stable and low-cost funds. Our average deposits, including MUFG Union Bank, combined with our average total equity of ¥16,296.5 billion, funded 66.8% of our average total assets of ¥370,358.5 billion during the current six-month period. Our deposits exceeded our loans before allowance for credit losses by ¥113,592.6 billion as of September 30, 2021 compared to ¥113,488.0 billion as of March 31, 2021. 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 and subordinated debt. Short-term borrowings consist of call money, funds purchased, payables under repurchase agreements, payables under securities lending transactions, due to trust account, and other short-term borrowings. From time to time, we have issued long-term instruments, including various fixed and floating interest rate senior and subordinated bonds with and without maturities. The average balance of short-term borrowings, including MUFG Union Bank, for the current six-month period was ¥45,331.1 billion. The average balance of long-term debt, including MUFG Union Bank, for the current six-month period was ¥34,859.9 billion. Liquidity may also be provided by the sale of financial assets, including available-for-sale debt securities, marketable equity securities, trading account securities and loans. Additional liquidity may be provided by the maturity of loans.
Any downgrade of the credit ratings assigned to us or our major subsidiaries could increase the cost, or decrease the availability, of our funding, particularly in U.S. dollars and other foreign currencies. See “Item 3.D. Key Information—Risk Factors—Funding Liquidity Risk—A downgrade of our credit ratings could adversely affect our ability to access and maintain liquidity” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
We manage our group-wide liquidity on a consolidated basis based on the tests and analyses conducted at the subsidiary level. Our major banking subsidiaries, MUFG Bank and Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking, 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). They 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, they regularly perform liquidity stress testing designed to evaluate the impact of systemic market stress conditions and institution-specific stress events, including credit rating downgrades, on their liquidity positions.
We collect and evaluate the results of the stress tests individually performed by our major subsidiaries to ensure 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. We also regard deposits with the Bank of Japan as buffer assets. In addition, our commercial banking subsidiaries manage their funding sources through liquidity-supplying products such as commitment lines and through a liquidity gap, or the excess of cash inflows over cash outflows.
Liquidity Requirements for Banking Institutions in Japan
We are required to calculate and disclose our LCR calculated in accordance with the methodology prescribed in the FSA guidance that has been adopted to implement the relevant Basel III standard. Starting in the calendar year 2019, we are required to maintain a minimum LCR of 100%. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan—Liquidity Coverage Ratio” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 and "Capital Adequacy—Liquidity Coverage Ratios of MUFG and Major Banking Subsidiaries in Japan" below.
Stable Funding Requirements for Banking Institutions in Japan
We are required to calculate and disclose our NSFR calculated in accordance with the methodology prescribed in the FSA guidance that has been adopted to implement the relevant Basel III standard. Starting in September 2021, we are required to maintain a minimum NSFR of 100%. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan—Net Stable Funding Ratio” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 and “Capital Adequacy—Net Stable Funding Ratios of MUFG and Major Banking Subsidiaries in Japan” below.

Capital Adequacy
We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements promulgated by the regulatory authorities of the countries 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 Ability to Meet Regulatory Capital Requirements—We may not be able to maintain our capital ratios and other regulatory ratios above minimum required levels, which could result in various regulatory actions, including the suspension of some or all of our operations.” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
We continually monitor our risk-adjusted capital ratios, leverage ratio and TLAC ratios closely, and manage our operations in consideration of the capital requirements. Factors that affect some or all of these ratios include fluctuations in the value of our assets, including our credit risk assets such as loans and equity securities, the risk weights of which depend on the borrowers’ or issuers’ internal ratings, and marketable securities, and fluctuations in the value of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies, as well as general price levels of Japanese 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 capital components 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.
As of September 30, 2021, we were required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, a G-SIB surcharge of 1.5% and a countercyclical buffer of 0.01% in addition to the 4.5% minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan—Capital adequacy” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
We have been granted approval by the FSA to exclude the majority of our investment in Morgan Stanley from being subject to double gearing adjustments. The approval was granted for a 10-year period, but the approval amount will be phased out by 20% each year starting from March 31, 2019. As of September 30, 2021, a full 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 0.5 percentage points.
For a more detailed discussion of the applicable capital ratio requirements, see “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. For information on the issuances of Additional Tier 1 securities, see also “Recent Developments—Issuances of Basel III-Compliant Domestic Subordinated Bonds.”
Leverage Requirements for Banking Institutions in Japan
Our consolidated leverage ratio is 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 is expressed as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to total balance sheet assets adjusted in accordance with the FSA guidance. As of September 30, 2021, we were required to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 3.00%. A G-SIB leverage ratio buffer equal to 50% of the applicable G-SIB capital surcharge is expected to be applied to us in 2023. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan—Leverage Ratio” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
TLAC Requirements for Banking Institutions in Japan
Our external TLAC ratios are calculated in accordance with the methodology prescribed in the FSA guidance that has been adopted to implement the TLAC Principle published by the FSB in November 2015. External TLAC ratios are expressed as the ratio of external TLAC amount to risk-weighted assets or leverage exposure in accordance with the FSA guidance. We are required to maintain external TLAC ratios of 16% on a risk-weighted assets basis and 6% on a leverage exposure basis from March 31, 2019 and 18% on a risk-weighted assets basis and 6.75% on a leverage exposure basis from March 31, 2022. See “Item 4.B. Information on the Company—Business Overview—Supervision and Regulation—Japan—Total loss-absorbing capacity” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. For information on the issuances of TLAC-qualified securities, see also “Recent Developments—Issuances of Senior Debt Securities for TLAC Purposes.”

Notes:
(1)The minimum capital ratios required as of March 31, 2021 include a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, a G-SIB surcharge of 1.5% and a nil countercyclical buffer. The minimum capital ratios required as of September 30, 2021 include a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, a G-SIB surcharge of 1.5% and a countercyclical buffer of 0.01%.
(2)Deposits with the Bank of Japan are excluded from the leverage exposure based on notification issued by the FSA.
(3)The TLAC ratio on a risk-weighted assets basis and the required minimum ratios as of March 31, 2021 do not include the regulatory capital buffers consisting of a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, a G-SIB surcharge of 1.5% and a nil countercyclical buffer. The TLAC ratio on a risk-weighted assets basis and the required minimum ratios as of September 30, 2021 do not include the regulatory capital buffers consisting of a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, a G-SIB surcharge of 1.5% and a countercyclical buffer of 0.01%.
Management believes that, as of September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all capital adequacy requirements to which we were subject.
Our Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio as of September 30, 2021 was higher compared to the ratio as of March 31, 2021 due to increases in retained earnings and other comprehensive income in addition to a decrease in risk-weighted assets. The decrease in risk-weighted assets mainly reflected smaller floor adjustments, which were adjustments made in accordance with prescribed formulae for the differences in exposures calculated under Basel I and Basel III.

Capital Requirements for Banking Institutions in the United States
In the United States, MUFG Americas Holdings and MUFG Union Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by 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 a material effect on MUFG Americas Holdings’ 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” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. See also Note 21 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
In addition, as foreign banking organizations that have U.S. branches and agencies and also as entities that are controlled by MUFG, MUFG Bank and Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking are subject to the FRB’s requirements.
Capital Ratios of Banking Subsidiaries in the United States

For further information, see Note 21 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
Capital Requirements for Securities Firms in Japan and Overseas
We have securities subsidiaries in Japan and overseas, which are also subject to regulatory capital requirements. 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 operational risks. Specific guidelines are issued as a ministerial ordinance which 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 of less 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 or jurisdictions in which they operate.
Capital Ratio of Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities
As of September 30, 2021, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities’ capital accounts less certain fixed assets of ¥486.7 billion represented 273.1% of the total amounts equivalent to market, counterparty credit and operational risks. As of March 31, 2021, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities’ capital accounts less certain fixed assets of ¥ 475.3 billion represented 275.4% of the total amounts equivalent to market, counterparty credit and operational risks. These figures are calculated in accordance with Japanese GAAP, pursuant to the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan.
For further information, see Note 21 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, we engage in several types of off-balance sheet arrangements to meet the financing needs of customers, including various types of guarantees, credit commitments and commercial letters of credit. 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. See Note 13 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the details of the contractual or notional amounts of such commitments.
Some of our off-balance sheet arrangements are related to activities of special purpose entities, most of which are VIEs. See Note 15 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the details of the maximum exposures to non-consolidated VIEs.
Market Risk
To measure market risks, we use the VaR method which estimates changes in the market value of portfolios within a certain period by statistically analyzing past market data. The principal model used for these activities is a historical simulation, or HS, model. 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.
VaR for Trading Activities. The VaR for our total trading activities in the six months ended September 30, 2021 measured using an HS-VaR model (holding period, one business day; confidence interval, 95%; and observation period, 250 business days) is presented in the table below. Expressed in terms of VaR, our market risk exposure as of September 30, 2021 was ¥1.15 billion, a ¥0.24 billion decrease compared to March 31, 2021 primarily due to a decrease in each risk category. Our average daily VaR for the six months ended September 30, 2021 was ¥1.39 billion.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Note:
(1)The maximum and minimum VaR overall and for various risk categories were taken from different days. A simple summation of VaR by risk category is not equal to total VaR due to the effect of diversification.
The average daily VaR by quarter in the six months ended September 30, 2021 was as follows:
| | | | | |
Quarter | Average daily VaR |
| (in billions) |
April–June 2021 | ¥ | 1.38 | |
July–September 2021 | 1.39 | |
Quantitative market risks fluctuated throughout the six months period, reflecting the reaction of trading activities to market volatility. Market conditions were often volatile during the current six-month period, with positive trading-related revenue recorded for 126 of 131 trading days during the period. The amount of trading-related revenue per day was kept within a stable range, with 49 days of positive revenue and no day of negative revenue exceeding ¥1 billion.
VaR for Non-Trading Activities. The VaR for our total non-trading activities as of September 30, 2021, excluding market risks related to our strategic equity portfolio and measured using an HS-VaR model (holding period, 10 business days; confidence interval, 99%; and observation period, 701 business days), is presented in the table below. The aggregate VaR as of September 30, 2021 was ¥548.7 billion, a ¥65.3 billion decrease from March 31, 2021 primarily due to a decrease in risk related to equities excluding our strategic equity portfolio.
For information on our strategic equity portfolio risk management, see “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Credit, Market and Other Risk—Risk Management of Strategic Equity Portfolio” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
Based on a simple sum of figures across market risk categories, interest rate risk accounted for approximately 67% of our total non-trading activity market risks as of September 30, 2021. In the six months ended September 30, 2021, the average daily interest rate VaR totaled ¥443.3 billion, with the highest recorded VaR being ¥484.8 billion and the lowest being ¥397.6 billion.

Notes:
(1)The maximum and minimum VaR overall and for various risk categories were taken from different days. A simple summation of VaR by risk category is not equal to total VaR due to the effect of diversification.
(2)The equities-related risk figures do not include market risk exposure from our strategic equity portfolio.
The average daily interest rate VaR by quarter in the six months ended September 30, 2021 was as follows:
| | | | | |
Quarter | Average daily VaR |
| (in billions) |
April–June 2021 | ¥ | 466.95 | |
July–September 2021 | 420.05 | |
Comparing the proportion of each currency’s interest rate VaR to the total interest rate VaR as of September 30, 2021 against that as of March 31, 2021, there was a three percentage point decrease in the Japanese yen from 35% to 32%, a one percentage point increase in the euro from 5% to 6%, and a two percentage point increase in the U.S. dollar from 60% to 62%.
Backtesting. We conduct backtesting in which VaR is compared with hypothetical profits and losses on a daily basis to verify the accuracy of our VaR measurement models for our trading activities and non-trading activities relating to foreign exchange and commodities. In the 250 trading days ended September 30, 2021, there were no exceptions in which the measured hypothetical losses exceeded VaR. We also conduct additional backtesting using other methods, 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.
Stress Testing. Actual losses may exceed the value at risk obtained by the application of an HS-VaR model in the event, for example, that the market fluctuates to a degree not accounted for in 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. 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 as appropriate, on our HS-VaR model for our non-trading activities by applying various stress scenarios, including those which take into account estimates regarding future market volatility, in order to better identify risks and manage our portfolio in a more stable and appropriate manner. In addition, MUFG and its major subsidiaries measure stressed VaR for their trading activities and non-trading activities relating to foreign exchange and commodities on an aggregate basis based on a one-year observation period with the highest VaR at least in the immediately preceding ten years.

See Note 17 for more information by business segment.
Basis of Financial Statements
The accompanying semiannual condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Japanese yen, the currency of the country in which MUFG is incorporated and principally operates. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MUFG, its subsidiaries and certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”) (together, the “MUFG Group”), and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. Certain information that would be included in annual financial statements but is not required for semiannual reporting purposes under U.S. GAAP has been omitted or condensed.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed 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 of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS
Agreement to Sell MUFG Union Bank and Invest in Shares of U.S. Bancorp
In September 2021, the MUFG Group agreed to the sale of all shares in MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (”MUFG Union Bank"), the wholly-owned primary operating subsidiary in the United States, to U.S. Bancorp. The businesses of MUFG Union Bank that the MUFG group will transfer to U.S. Bancorp exclude the Global Corporate & Investment Banking ("GCIB") business, the Global Markets business to the extent related to the GCIB business and certain assets and liabilities etc. that are part of shared middle and back office functions etc. Under a legal agreement, the assets and liabilities of these operations will be transferred to other entities within MUFG before it sells the shares of MUFG Union Bank. The transaction value is expected to be approximately $17.6 billion consisting of $8.0 billion of consideration to be paid by U.S. Bancorp in the form of $5.5 billion in cash and 44,374,155 shares of U.S. Bancorp and $9.6 billion of capital to be distributed through a dividend or share repurchase by MUFG Union Bank prior to the closing of the transaction. The MUFG group expects to own approximately 2.9% of U.S. Bancorp’s outstanding shares immediately after the transaction. The closing of the transaction is expected to occur in the first half of calendar year 2022, subject to certain conditions, including the approval from relevant regulators. Through this transaction, the MUFG group aims to maximize shareholder value by improving the capital efficiency.
The assets and liabilities of MUFG Union Bank, which will be transferred to U.S. Bancorp, were reclassified as held for sale, and included in Other assets and Other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2021.

Evaluating Available-for-sale Debt Securities for Impairment Losses
The following describes the nature of the MUFG Group’s Available-for-sale debt securities and the conclusions reached in determining whether impairment losses exist.
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
Japanese national government and Japanese government agency bonds, Foreign government and official institution bonds
As of September 30, 2021, unrealized losses associated with these securities were deemed to be attributable to changes 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, no credit loss was identified as of September 30, 2021 and no impairment loss has been recorded.
Corporate bonds
As of September 30, 2021, 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 the bonds as estimated using the MUFG Group’s cash flow projections. The key assumptions include probability of default based on credit ratings of the bond issuers and loss given default.
Residential mortgage-backed securities
As of September 30, 2021, unrealized losses on these securities were primarily driven by securities guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or a government-sponsored agency which are collateralized by residential mortgage loans. Unrealized losses mainly resulted from changes in interest rates and not from changes in credit quality. The MUFG Group determined through analysis that no credit loss was identified on such securities as of September 30, 2021 because the strength of the issuers’ guarantees through direct obligations or support from the U.S. government is expected to be sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.
Asset-backed securities
As of September 30, 2021, 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 fund managers. When the fair value of a security is lower than its amortized cost or when any security is subject to a deterioration in credit rating, the MUFG Group undertakes a cash flow analysis of the underlying collateral to estimate the credit loss and confirms the intent and ability to hold these securities until recovery. Based on the analysis performed, no credit loss was identified as of September 30, 2021 and no impairment loss has been recorded.
Other debt securities
As of September 30, 2021, unrealized losses on other debt securities result from a higher return on capital expected by the secondary market compared with the return on capital required at the time of origination when the bonds were purchased. The MUFG Group estimates loss projections for each security by assessing the underlying collateral of each security. The MUFG Group estimates the portion of loss attributable to 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 an estimate of credit loss, which is performed when the fair value of a security is lower than its amortized cost and potential impairment is identified. Based on the analysis, no credit loss was identified as of September 30, 2021.

See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 for further information.
Nonaccrual Loans
Originated loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when substantial doubt exists as to the full and timely collection of either principal or interest, 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 more with respect to loans within the Card, MUFG Americas Holdings, and Krungsri segments, and six months or more with respect to loans within the Residential segment. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 for further information.

Notes: | (1)TDRs for the Commercial and Residential segments include accruing loans, and do not include nonaccrual loans. |
| (2)TDRs for the Card, MUFG Americas Holdings, Krungsri and Other segments include accrual and nonaccrual loans. |
| (3)For the six months ended September 30, 2020, extension of the stated maturity date of loans was the primary concession type in the Commercial, Residential and Krungsri segments, reduction in the stated rate was the primary concession type in the Card and Other segments and forbearance was the primary concession type in the MUFG Americas Holdings segment. For the six months ended September 30, 2021, extension of the stated maturity date of loans was the primary concession type in the Commercial, Residential and Krungsri segments, reduction in the stated rate was the primary concession type in the Card segment and forbearance was the primary concession type in the MUFG Americas Holdings segment. |
| (4) The above table includes the loans in transferred business of MUFG Union Bank at September 30, 2021. See Note 2 for more information. |
A modification of terms of a loan under a TDR mainly involves: (i) a reduction in the stated interest rate applicable to the loan, (ii) an extension of the stated maturity date of the loan, (iii) a partial forgiveness of the principal of the loan, or (iv) a combination of all of these. The amount of pre-modification outstanding recorded investment and post-modification outstanding recorded investment may differ due to write-offs made as part of the concession. The impact of write-offs associated with TDRs on the MUFG Group’s results of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021 was not material.
TDRs for the Commercial and Residential segments in the above tables include accruing loans, and do not include 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 the borrower. Therefore, even if a nonaccrual loan is modified, the loan continues to be classified as a nonaccrual loan. 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 is immaterial, 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 or more within the Residential segment, and those accruing loans reclassified to nonaccrual loans due to financial 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.
In regards to the Card, MUFG Americas Holdings, Krungsri and Other segments, the TDRs in the above tables represent nonaccrual and accruing loans, and the defaulted loans in the above table represent non-accruing and accruing loans that became past due one month or more within the Card segment, 60 days or more within the MUFG Americas Holdings segment, and six months or more within the Krungsri segment.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
Historical payment defaults are one of the factors considered when projecting future cash flows in determining the allowance for credit losses for each segment.
In the MUFG Americas Holdings segment, TDR accounting was suspended for loan modifications, where COVID-19 related modifications were granted to loans that were current as of December 31, 2019, based on the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or where COVID-19 related short-term modifications (i.e., six months or less) were granted to loans that were current as of the loan modification date, based on interagency statements issued by the U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies. These loan modifications were primarily payment deferrals, and the related borrowers’ past due and nonaccrual status will not be impacted during the deferral period. Interest income will continue to be recognized over the contractual life of the loan.
In the Krungsri segment, TDR accounting was suspended for loan modifications, where COVID-19 related short-term modifications (i.e., six months or less) were granted to loans that were current as of the loan modification date, based on interagency statements issued by the U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies. These loan modifications included payment deferrals and reductions in stated rate, and the related borrowers’ past due and nonaccrual status will not be impacted during the deferral period. Interest income will continue to be recognized over the contractual life of the loan.

The MUFG Group sold ¥613 billion and ¥850 billion of loans within the Commercial segment during the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021, respectively.
The MUFG Group sold ¥519 billion of loans within the MUFG Americas Holdings segment during the six months ended September 30, 2021.
Collateral Dependent Loans
The MUFG Group uses, as a practical expedient, the fair value of the collateral when recording the net carrying amounts of loans and determining the allowance for credit losses of such loans, for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the assessment as of the reporting date.
As of September 30, 2021, for the Commercial, MUFG Americas Holdings, Krungsri and Other segments, collateral relating to these loans comprised primarily of real estate, and to a lesser extent, exchange traded equity securities and deposits, etc. For the Residential segment, collateral on these loans was mainly real estate.
Other Financial Receivable
Accounts receivable-Other, which is included in Other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, amounted to ¥1,162,424 million and ¥1,040,049 million as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively, and were primarily comprised of receivables relating to card business. The provision or reversal of the allowance for credit losses relating to the receivables was included in Non-interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The receivables relating to card business included ¥4,980 million of past due receivables (1-3 months past due receivables of ¥2,252 million and greater than 3 months past due receivables of ¥2,728 million) as of March 31, 2021, and ¥5,172 million of past due receivables (1-3 months past due receivables of ¥2,279 million and greater than 3 months past due receivables of ¥2,893 million) as of September 30, 2021, respectively. The credit quality for these receivables is primarily evaluated based on the extent of past due.
The outstanding balance of these account receivables are presented on a net basis after allowance for credit losses. The change of allowance for credit losses during the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021 is primarily due to provision or reversal of the allowance for the receivables.
There are de minimis or zero expected credit losses, for example, for lending and financing transactions, such as Interest-earning deposits in other banks, Call loans and funds sold, Receivables under resale agreements and Receivables under securities borrowing transactions because the term is short and the credit quality of the borrowers is normal.
Accrued interest receivable totaled ¥259,336 million and ¥223,222 million as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively, and is included in Other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
The impairment losses on goodwill for the six months ended September 30, 2020 were ¥106,479 million and relating to the MUAH reporting unit. Due to the economic environment triggered by COVID-19, cash flow projections for reporting units were lowered. This economic environment led management to believe that the fair values of a certain reporting unit was below carrying value. As a result, the fair value of the reporting unit was measured on June 30, 2020 for the quantitative goodwill impairment test, and led to impairment of goodwill with the fair value fallen below the carrying amount of the reporting unit. The MUFG Group estimated the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of the income and the market approaches. This goodwill impairment includes the impact of an intervening event due to the economic environment triggered by COVID-19 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. See Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 for further information.

10. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND SECURITIES LENDING TRANSACTIONS ACCOUNTED FOR AS SECURED BORROWINGS
The 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, 2021 and September 30, 2021. Potential risks associated with these arrangements 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 lending transactions on a daily basis and monitors the value of the underlying securities, consisting of primarily high-quality securities such as Japanese national government and Japanese government agency bonds, and foreign government and official institution 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 to ensure the adequate level of liquidity is maintained in the event of a decline in the fair value of any collateral pledged.

12. 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. See Note 23 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 for a further discussion of the MUFG Group’s use of derivative instruments. During the six months ended September 30, 2021, there was no change in the MUFG Group’s use of derivative instruments that had a material impact on the MUFG Group’s financial position and results of operations.
Derivatives Designated as Hedges
The MUFG Group adopts hedging strategies and applies hedge accounting to certain derivative transactions entered mainly by MUFG Americas Holdings whose fiscal period ends on December 31.
Cash Flow Hedges
From time to time, MUFG Americas Holdings uses interest rate derivatives to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in the designated interest rate on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) indexed loans, and to a lesser extent, to hedge interest rate risk on rollover debt.
MUFG Americas Holdings used interest rate derivatives with an aggregate notional amount of ¥1,105.8 billion at June 30, 2021, which included those relating to transferred business of MUFG Union Bank, to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in the designated interest rates from variable rate loans. At June 30, 2021, the weighted average remaining life of the active cash flow hedges was 2.4 years.
For cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of the hedging instruments are reported as a component of OCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows are recognized in net interest income. At June 30, 2021, MUFG Americas Holdings expects to reclassify approximately ¥11.4 billion of income from Accumulated OCI as an increase to net interest income during the twelve months ending June 30, 2022. This amount could differ from amounts actually realized due to changes in interest rates, hedge terminations and the addition of other hedges subsequent to June 30, 2021.
Notional Amounts of Derivative Contracts

Credit Derivatives
The MUFG Group enters into credit derivatives to manage its credit risk exposure, to facilitate client transactions, 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. See Note 23 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 for a more detailed explanation and discussion of credit derivatives.

Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
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 derivative instruments held by the MUFG Group 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 the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request payments on early termination or demand immediate and ongoing full overnight collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position at March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021 was approximately ¥0.7 trillion and ¥0.6 trillion, respectively, for which the MUFG Group has posted collateral of approximately ¥227 billion and ¥145 billion, respectively, in the normal course of business. The amount of additional collateral and early termination amount which could be requested if the MUFG Group’s debt falls below investment grade was ¥63 billion and ¥92 billion, respectively, as of March 31, 2021 and ¥56 billion and ¥76 billion, respectively, as of September 30, 2021.

Total | ¥ | 56,443 | | | ¥ | 58,465 | |
| | | | | |
Notes: | (1)Credit derivatives sold by the MUFG Group are excluded from this presentation. |
| (2)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. |
| (3) The above table includes the credit instruments in transferred business of MUFG Union Bank at September 30.2021. See Note 2 for more informatioion. |
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 is consistent 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.
Presented in the tables below is the maximum potential amount of future payments classified based upon internal credit ratings as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021. The determination of the maximum potential future payments is based on the notional amount of the guarantees without consideration of possible recoveries under recourse provisions or from collateral held or pledged. Such amounts do not represent the anticipated losses, if any, on these guarantees.

14. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Repayment of Excess Interest
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 probable losses, 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 excess interest established by MUFG’s consumer finance subsidiaries, which was included in Other liabilities, was ¥24,943 million and ¥22,616 million as of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively. Provision (reversal) related to the allowance for the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021 were not material.
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 their occurrence and the probable loss amount can be reasonably estimated. Based upon current knowledge and consultation with counsel, management believes the eventual outcome of such litigation and regulatory matters, where losses are probable and the probable loss amounts can be reasonably estimated, would not have a material adverse effect on the MUFG Group’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 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.
15. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
In 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.
See Note 25 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 for further information about the MUFG Group’s involvements with VIEs.

In general, the creditors or beneficial interest holders of consolidated VIEs have recourse not only to the assets of those VIEs of which they are creditors or beneficial interest holders, but also to other assets of the MUFG Group, since the MUFG Group is also contractually required to provide credit enhancement or program-wide liquidity to these VIEs.

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, the maximum 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.

The following is an explanation of the relationship with revenue information disclosed for each reportable segment.
These revenues from contracts with customers are related to various reportable segments disclosed in Note 17. The business segment information 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 with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan as adjusted in accordance with internal management accounting rules and practices. Further, the format and information as disclosed in Note 17 are not consistent with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements prepared on the basis of U.S. GAAP. For example, management does not use information on segments’ gross revenue to allocate resources and assess performance.
The majority of fees and commissions on deposits are attributable to Digital Service Business Group (“DS”) and Global Commercial Banking Business Group (“GCB”) with no significant concentration in any particular segments.
The business activities relevant to fees and commissions on remittances and transfers are attributable to DS, Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group (“R&C”), Japanese Corporate Investment Banking Business Group (“JCIB”), Global Corporate Investment Banking Business Group (“GCIB”), and GCB with no significant concentration in any particular segments.
The business activities relevant to fees and commissions on foreign trading business are attributable to DS, R&C, JCIB, GCIB, and GCB with no significant concentration in any particular segments.
The business activities relevant to fees and commissions on credit card business are substantially attributable to DS.
The majority of fees and commissions on security-related services are from the business activities relevant to R&C, with JCIB and GCIB providing a smaller impact.
The business activities relevant to fees and commissions on administration and management services for investment funds are substantially attributable to Asset Management & Investor Service Business Group (“AM/IS”).
The business activities relevant to trust fees are attributable to R&C, JCIB, and AM/IS with no significant concentration in any particular segments.

The reportable segments of the MUFG Group are subject to the periodical review by the Executive Committee, which represents the MUFG Group’s chief operating decision maker, to determine the allocation of management resources and assess performance. The MUFG Group has established its business units according to the characteristics of customers and the nature of the underlying business. Each business unit engages in business activities based on comprehensive strategies developed for and aimed at respective targeted customers and businesses. The business segment information is primarily based on the financial information prepared in accordance with accounting 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 the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements prepared on the basis of U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation is provided for the total amounts of segments’ operating profit with income before income tax expense under U.S. GAAP.
The MUFG Group integrated the operations of its consolidated subsidiaries into seven business segments.—Digital Service, Retail & Commercial Banking, Japanese Corporate & Investment Banking, Global Commercial Banking, Asset Management & Investor Services, Global Corporate & Investment Banking, and Global Markets.
The following is a brief explanation of the MUFG Group’s business segments:
Digital Service Business Group—Covers digital-based non-face-to-face businesses servicing "mass-segment" customers, or retail customers and small and medium-sized enterprise customers, of Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS, other consumer financing company and MUFG Bank in Japan.
Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group—Covers the domestic retail and commercial banking businesses. This business group mainly offers retail customers (with a strategic focus on high net-worth individual) and small and medium-sized enterprise customers in Japan an extensive array of commercial banking, trust banking and securities products and services.
Japanese Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group—Covers the large Japanese corporate businesses. This business group offers large Japanese corporations advanced financial solutions designed to respond to their diversified and globalized needs and to contribute to their business and financial strategies through the global network of the MUFG group companies.
Global Commercial Banking Business Group—Covers the retail and commercial banking businesses of MUFG Union Bank, Krungsri and Bank Danamon. This business group offers a comprehensive array of financial products and services such as loans, deposits, fund transfers, investments and asset management services for local retail, small and medium-sized enterprise, and corporate customers across the Asia-Pacific region.
Asset Management & Investor Services Business Group—Covers the asset management and asset administration businesses of Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking, MUFG Bank and First Sentier Investors. By integrating the trust banking expertise of Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking and the global strengths of MUFG Bank, the business group offers a full range of asset management and administration services for corporations and pension funds, including pension fund management and administration, advice on pension structures, and payments to beneficiaries, and also offer investment trusts for retail customers.
Global Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group—Covers the global corporate, investment and transaction banking businesses of MUFG Bank and Mitsubishi UFJ Securities Holdings. Through a global network of offices and branches, this business group provides non-Japanese large corporate and financial institution customers outside Japan with a comprehensive set of solutions that meet their increasingly diverse and sophisticated financing needs.
Global Markets Business Group—Covers the customer business and the treasury operations of MUFG Bank, Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking and Mitsubishi UFJ Securities Holdings. The customer business includes sales and trading in fixed income instruments, currencies, equities and other investment products as well as origination and distribution of financial products. The treasury operations include asset and liability management as well as global investments for the MUFG Group.
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
Other—Consists mainly of the corporate centers of MUFG, MUFG Bank, Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking and Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities. The elimination of 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.
The MUFG Group has reorganized its business groups (previously consisting of Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group, Japanese Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group, Global Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group, Global Commercial Banking Business Group, Asset Management & Investor Services Business Group, Global Markets Business Group and Other) under its three-year medium-term business plan commencing on April 1, 2021, in light of changes in the business environment, including the digital shift in society. A new Digital Service Business Group was established on April 1, 2021 under the medium-term business plan mainly by separating the digital-based businesses that previsously belonged to the Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group in an effort to better integrate the expertise and capabilities of its subsidiaries to respond to the need of its customers more effectively and efficiently, and the MUFG Group changed its reporting segments to the current segmentation based on the reorganized business groups. The MUFG Group has changed the method of allocation of net revenue and operating expenses among reporting segments mainly in connection with the establishment of the Digital Service Business Group.
In addition, the MUFG Group made modifications to its internal management accounting rules and practices, effective April 1, 2021, including adjustments relating to the interest rate on core deposits in the Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group under the medium-term business plan. The adjustments resulted in a decrease in net revenue in the Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group and a corresponding, offsetting increase of the same amount in net revenue in Other.
These changes had the following impact on its previously reported business segment information for the six months ended September 30, 2020:
•increasing the operating profits of Other, the Global Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group, the Global Commercial Banking Business Group and the Global Markets Business Group by ¥6.5 billion, ¥2.4 billion, ¥0.9 billion and ¥0.9 billion, respectively, and
•reducing the operating profits of the Retail & Commercial Banking Business Group, the Asset Management & Investor Services Business Group and the Japanese Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group by ¥104.6 billion, ¥1.3 billion and ¥0.6 billion, respectively.
Prior period business segment information has been restated to enable comparison between the relevant amounts for six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021.

Changes in Level 3 Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The following tables present a reconciliation of the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021. The determination to classify a financial instrument within Level 3 is based upon the significance of the unobservable inputs to overall fair value measurement. However, Level 3 financial instruments typically include, in addition to the unobservable or Level 3 input, observable inputs (inputs that are actively quoted and can be validated to external sources). Accordingly, the gains and losses in the tables below include changes in fair value due in part to observable inputs used in the valuation techniques.

| (5)For the six months ended September 30, 2020, transfers out of Level 3 for Corporate bonds were due to changes in the impact of unobservable credit worthiness inputs to the entire fair value measurement of the private placement bonds issued by Japanese non-public companies. Unobservable credit worthiness inputs include probability of default based on credit ratings of the bond issuers and loss given default. |
| (6)Transfers into (out of) Level 3 for long-term debt in Other were mainly caused by the decrease (increase) in the observability of the key inputs to the valuation models and a corresponding increase (decrease) in the significance of the unobservable inputs. |

Changes in and range of unobservable inputs
For a discussion of the impact on fair value of changes in unobservable inputs and the relationships between unobservable inputs as well as a description of attributes of the underlying instruments and external market factors that affect the range of inputs used in the valuation of the MUFG Group’s Level 3 financial instruments, see Note 31 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Certain assets and liabilities may be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial recognition. These assets are subject to fair value adjustments that result from the application of the lower of cost or fair value accounting, write-downs of individual assets or the measurement alternative for nonmarketable equity securities. See Note 31 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 for further information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Repurchase and Cancellation of own shares
At the meeting of the Board of Directors of MUFG held on November 15, 2021, it was resolved to repurchase up to 300,000,000 shares of MUFG’s common stock by market purchases based on the discretionary dealing contract regarding repurchase of own shares for approximately ¥150 billion, in aggregate, from November 16, 2021 to March 31, 2022.
