Summary of reportable segments

MHFG has introduced an in-house company system based on the group’s diverse customer segments. The aim of this system is to leverage MHFG’s strengths and competitive advantage, which is the seamless integration of MHFG’s banking, trust and securities functions under a holding company structure, to speedily provide high-quality financial services that closely match customer needs.

Specifically, the company system is classified into the following five in-house companies, each based on a customer segment: the Retail & Business Banking Company (RBC), the Corporate & Investment Banking Company (CIBC), the Global Corporate & Investment Banking Company (GCIBC), the Global Markets Company (GMC), and the Asset Management Company (AMC).

The services that each in-house company is in charge of are as follows:

RBC:

Services for individual customers, small and medium-sized enterprises and middle market firms in Japan

CIBC:

Services for large corporations, financial institutions and public corporations in Japan

GCIBC:

Services for Japanese overseas affiliated corporate customers and non-Japanese corporate customers, etc.

GMC:

Investment services with respect to interest rates, equities and credits, etc. and other services

AMC:

Development of products and provision of services that match the asset management needs of its wide range of customers from individuals to institutional investors

The reportable segments information, set forth below, is derived from the internal management reporting systems used by management to measure the performance of the Group’s operating segments. Management measures the performance of each of the operating segments in accordance with internal managerial accounting rules and practices.
