It is outlined in the MUFG Environmental and Social Policy Framework not to provide financing to new coal-fired power generation projects in principle. MUFG have set a target of reducing the balance of financing to coal-fired power generation projects by 50% from FY2019 by FY2030, and reducing it to zero by FY2040.
Credit Amounts Related to Coal -Fired Power Generation -Project Finance-
  1. Projects that contribute to the transition toward a decarbonized society are exceptional following the MUFG Environmental and Social Policy Framework.

Approx. 80 billion yen (as of the end of FY2022)

In April 2022, we set a target to reduce to zero the balance of financing to coal-fired power generation projects by FY2040.

We will continue to promote investments and loans for green, transition, and innovation through engagement (dialogue) aimed to help customers decarbonize who are operating coal-fired thermal power generation.

Measurement of Financed Emission (FE) by Sector in TCFD Recommendations for Disclosure

FE measurement was conducted for corporate and project finance, using the PCAF methodology, by sectors recommended for disclosure in the TCFD (based on March 31, 2022). Going forward, FE measurement results may change significantly as the availability and accuracy of data improves due to expanded disclosure by customers and advances in estimation methodologies.

In FE measurement, we perform estimation using the emission factors in the IEA World Energy Outlook and the emission intensity (emissions per unit of revenue and per amount of loans) published in the PCAF database, in addition to customers' disclosed data. See details on assumptions and measurement methods, see here(PDF / 341KB).

Status of Carbon-Related Assets (Credit Amount)

Metric

Carbon-Related Assets (Credit Amount)

Based on the TCFD's recommendations, the status of credit balance (note1,2) for carbon-related assets is disclosed in order to quantify the risks related to climate change.

The total amount at the end of FY2022 was 60.2 trillion yen (note3) (Energy: 8.2 trillion yen; Utilities: 9.2 trillion yen; Transportation: 12.0 trillion yen; Materials and Buildings: 26.8 trillion yen; Agriculture, Food and Forest Products: 4.1 trillion yen).

Status of Carbon-Related Assets (Credit Amount)
  1. Total of loans, trade finance, letter of credit & guarantees and undrawn commitment facility, etc.
  2. Excluding interbank transactions, credit to government agencies and central banks, etc.
  3. Based on the revision of the TCFD Recommendations in October 2021, the scope has included energy and utilities transportation, materials and buildings, and agriculture, food, and forest products. Credit to renewable power generation is excluded from credit amount related to the utility sector.
    The total includes partner banks (Krungsri (Bank of Ayudhya), and Bank Danamon). Sector classification based on the primary business (largest sales) of the borrower.
