The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ (BTMU) is the largest bank in Japan and the largest bank by asset size in the world. According to a recent report in the Nikkei, BTMU is the first Japanese bank to implement such an extensive transaction-monitoring system.

We are pleased to have been selected by one of the world’s most dynamic banking organizations as they take the lead in fighting financial crime, commented Robert Binney, vice chairman of Fortent. Not only does this represent a major step for Fortent as we start to establish ourselves in Japan, but it also continues to reaffirm our global leadership in the compliance market.

Fortent’s other customers include The Bank of New York, Barclays, JPMorgan Chase, Lloyds TSB, and Societe Generale.
