MUFG Bank (Europe) N.V. confirms, in its annual report for the year ending 31 March 2026, that it has delivered steady and sustainable growth. This builds on the streamlined operations and integrated European platform at the core of its business plan.

The Bank's growth in recent years has been delivered by three key elements: diversified income, cost control and strategic focus. This transformation has led to the Bank being able to announce its intention to create a universal banking platform in the EU.

Growth in areas such as lending and FX has helped the Bank generate a diversified revenue base. This, combined with maintaining disciplined cost control, led to a 13% increase in the result for the year compared to the previous financial year.

Harm Bots, Chief Executive Officer, MUFG Bank (Europe) N.V. said:

"Our performance this year reflects the strength of our strategy and the dedication of our people. The progress we have made through our streamlined operations and integrated European platform has positioned us strongly for the future and gives us confidence as we move forward with our ambition to create a universal banking platform in the EU."

Wietze Reehoorn, Chair of the Supervisory Board, MUFG Bank (Europe) N.V. commented:

"Against a backdrop of geopolitical uncertainty, lower interest rates and evolving regulatory expectations, the Bank has remained profitable, resilient and strategically focused. This reflects the sustained commitment of our employees and management, and the disciplined execution of the Bank's strategy across the EU."
