SINGAPORE, HONG KONG and TOKYO, May 11, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — InvestCloud, an award winning global FinTech firm serving some of the largest banks, wealth managers and asset managers in the world, today announced the deployment of its Wealth Adviser Platform by Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG), Japan’s largest bank and one of the world’s largest banks by total assets.
