What do you think is MUFG's competitive edge?

MUFG’s global footprint, financial strength, and long-term relationships with our clients are our competitive edge. I also believe it is the people and their commitment to our clients to provide value through idea-generation. As an organization, we strive to contribute to the prosperity of our clients and the broader society.

What is your most rewarding experience at MUFG?

Working with diverse professionals as a project manager on multiple global and regional projects. In one of them, a spectrum of global stakeholders was involved and covered a broad range of themes. Overall project management proved to be extremely complex while providing professional excitement.

How would you describe people at MUFG?

People at MUFG are highly motivated professionals who share values of integrity and fairness. In Global CIB, diverse people in different locations across the globe work as a single team with a commitment to deliver best-in-class services and experiences to our clients.

How do you spend your free time?

I spend my free time mostly with my family. We regularly enjoy going to a park near our house. I also enjoy cooking during weekends. Lasagna with home-made meat sauces is one of my kids’ favorite recipes, which grown-ups also enjoy over a glass of wine.
