TL;DR
Meiji Yasuda Trust Life Insurance Co., Ltd. is a life-insurance operating company of the Meiji Yasuda group that holds a life-insurance company license under the Insurance Business Act and is listed in the FSA’s life-insurance company license list. Its predecessors were Allianz Life → Aeon Allianz Life, and in 2025 年 7 月 1 日 Meiji Yasuda Life acquired about 85% of its shares and made it a subsidiary, and in 2025 年 10 月 1 日 it changed its name to “Meiji Yasuda Trust Life Insurance.” Because the former Aeon Allianz Life had a history of specializing in group credit life insurance (団信), and it carries a name-change / group-transfer boundary, it is placed as a standalone page.

2. Operating model
Meiji Yasuda Trust Life is a subsidiary life insurer of the Meiji Yasuda group that runs the standard life-insurance model — premium underwriting, policy-reserve accumulation, long-term ALM, and claims payment. In its former Aeon Allianz Life era it underwrote specialized lines such as group credit life insurance (団信), and after joining the Meiji Yasuda group it continues the in-force management and servicing of those policies. Its business form and channel are separate from its parent Meiji Yasuda, a major mutual company centered on a face-to-face sales-representative channel. For the structural difference between mutual-company and stock-company types, see mutual vs stock life insurer.
