MUFG has hitherto disclosed the status of our sustainability efforts through Annual Reports and on our website. Now, in the new MUFG Sustainability Report 2020, we have disclosed for the first time the target balance of financing to coal-fired power generation [1] (P. 54) with the latest progress of our sustainability efforts and the following information in ever more detail: information based on the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) (P. 46), CO2 reduction effect in the renewable energy project financing (P. 34), human resource development (P. 60), diversity (P. 67), and social contribution activities (P. 91).
