Greetings

Thank you for continuing to support The Master Trust Bank of Japan, Ltd.
Established in May 2000 as the first trust bank in Japan dedicated exclusively to asset administration business, we are honored to celebrate our 25th anniversary this year.
Beyond the framework of business conditions and financial groups, we provide comprehensive Asset administration services of the best quality by leveraging the investments that we have received from the Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation, Nippon Life Insurance Company, Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company, and The Norinchukin Trust & Banking Co., Ltd., the strong business foundation of each company, and the know-how accumulated over many years.
In FY2024, MTBJ saw an increase in assets under our management mainly due to an increase in pension and securities trust assets and outsourced operational services entrusted to us by our cusomters. As a result, "the balance of assets under our management" as of the end of March 2025 increased by approximately 67 trillion yen compared to the previous year to 770 trillion yen.
For FY2024, we have set our objective to, "Committed to empowering a brighter future for society and the environment" Further, we have enacted our vision to "As a leading Investor Services bank in Japan, steer our clients toward the next exciting chapter" to realize our objective.
To achieve this vision, we are committed to enhancing the overall efficiency of entire asset management industry. As a responsible stakeholder in "Asset Management Nation Realization Plan", we provide an operational environment that enables our clients to concentrate on core investment activities.
To ensure robust governance aligned with our expanding business scale, we have initiated a fundamental reform of our corporate governance framework starting in fiscal year 2025.
Through these initiatives, we aim to continue being a bank that earns the confidence and support of our clients, by serving as a social foundation that supports Japan’s economy and protects the assets of its people.
