Four MUFG companies, including Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities, Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking, and MUFG Bank, are planning to conduct Japanese government bond repo transactions on the Canton Network as part of a proof-of-concept (PoC) initiative. The goal is to improve operational efficiency by automating transaction lifecycle, enable real-time intraday settlement 24/7, and enhance funding and capital efficiency.
The PoC is aligned with Japan’s Financial Services Agency’s Payment Innovation Project pilot launched in February 2026.
