We exhibit an operational connection between mutually unbiased bases and symmetric infomationally complete positive operator-valued measures. Assuming that the latter exists, we show that there is a strong link between these two structures in all prime power dimensions. We also demonstrate that a similar link cannot exists in dimension 6.
