Summary
MUFG Securities EMEA
enterprise finance legacy
MUFG Securities EMEA PLC (MUSI) — the European investment-banking arm of Japan's Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, based at Ropemaker Place in the City of London.
What it's used for
- The bank's own network. Its main holding is
162.11.0.0/16(netnameUKMFIL), a legacy class-B block registered directly to MUFG Securities EMEA at its London address, announced as a summary route over Colt and Lumen circuits. - It also originates
193.104.4.0/24, registered asBTMU-NETto the former Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ entity — a fossil of the group's pre-merger naming. - No customer or subscriber space anywhere: this is trading, settlement and corporate infrastructure for one financial institution.
Notable
- Roughly 65,000 addresses for a single bank is unremarkable for a legacy /16 holder. Financial institutions were early, well-funded internet adopters and many hold class-B space they will never fully route.
- The
LEGACYstatus on the inetnum means the block predates the RIPE NCC's allocation policies and is held under the legacy-resources arrangement rather than a normal LIR allocation.
Interesting
- The registry preserves the group's merger history better than its own website does.
MUSI,UKMFILandBTMU-NETare three different eras of naming for the same institution, all still live in RIPE objects.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
