A major bank is using its new mobile banking app, hosted in the cloud. It can safely access real-time account info from its mainframe using clear APIs.

That&rsquo;s where innovation thrives. This balanced way reduces risk. It also lets us try new things. Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group is a key example. It has launched a hybrid cloud strategy.
