TL;DR
プルデンシャル ジブラルタ ファイナンシャル生命保険株式会社 (PGF生命) is a life-insurance operating company in the US Prudential Financial group (the Japanese Prudential group) that holds a life-insurance company license under the Insurance Business Act and appears on the FSA’s list of licensed life-insurance companies. It changed to its current trade name in 2010 年 4 月 1 日, and has used “PGF生命” as its abbreviation since 2013 年 4 月. With bancassurance (bank-counter sales) as its main business, it provides single-premium savings-type products such as USD-denominated single-premium whole life insurance through partner financial institutions, which separates it in channel and product from Prudential Gibraltar Financial (Prudential Japan) and Gibraltar Life Insurance, which are centered on face-to-face consultants.

2. Operating model
PGF生命 runs the standard life-insurer model—underwriting premiums, building policy reserves, long-term ALM, paying out claims—with a specialization in the financial-institution agency channel and single-premium savings-type products. Because it sells foreign-currency products centered on USD-denominated single-premium whole life insurance through bank and securities counters, it has a liability profile with high sensitivity to the FX and interest-rate environment. This is clearly different from Prudential Gibraltar Financial (Prudential Japan)・Gibraltar Life Insurance, which are centered on the Prudential-group face-to-face life-planner / consultant channel. Ms Primary Life and Daiichi Frontier Life Insurance, which share the same FI-channel・single-premium model, are direct comparison targets. For the revenue structure of bancassurance, see bancassurance economics in Japan.
