Overseas-M&A-led growth strategy

  • Building the “4 major U.S. platforms” (Philadelphia / Delphi / HCC / Pure):
    • Niche optimization for the U.S. market across the 4 domains of mid-sized P&C (Philadelphia), disability (Delphi), specialty (HCC), and high-net-worth P&C (Pure)
    • Cumulative acquisition amount of over approx. 2 兆円 over the 12 years from 2008 to 2020
  • Overseas ratio of over 50% (net-income basis): the No.1 overseas ratio domestically in the non-life industry, higher than ms-ad / sompo-hd
  • Earnings-diversification effect: diversifying domestic natural-disaster concentration risk across the U.S., Europe, and Asia

Domestic strategy

  • Tokio Marine & Nichido: top-tier domestic automobile-insurance share, strength in corporate insurance (marine, fire, liability)
  • Anshin Life: focus on the third sector (medical, cancer), leveraging the bank over-the-counter sales channel
  • Agency network: approx. 5 万 stores nationwide; regional banks / automobile dealers / travel agencies, etc.

ESG / climate change

  • Industry ESG leader: a key member of TCFD / NZIA
  • Natural-disaster risk response: advancing reinsurance schemes for typhoons / torrential rain / earthquakes
  • 2050 net zero commitment (both own operations and underwriting portfolio)
  • Biodiversity / TNFD early response

Digital / innovation

  • InsurTech investment: corporate-venture investment in U.S. and UK InsurTech
  • AI assessment: AI utilization in automobile-insurance accident assessment
  • Data business: corporate risk advisory leveraging insurance data

4. Regulation & policy

  • Supervisor: Financial Services Agency (FSA)
  • Insurance Business Act: Article 271 -18 , etc. (insurance-holding-company regulation)
  • Overseas regulation: NAIC / state insurance commissioners (U.S.), PRA / FCA (UK), MAS (Singapore), OIC (Thailand), etc.
  • IFRS 17: response to the international insurance-accounting standard from 2023
  • Recent policy issues:
    • From 2023 — the Big Motor fraudulent-claims problem: in the non-life industry (with related reporting on Tokio Marine & Nichido as well), agency governance and non-life-cartel suspicions became issues, with FSA and JFTC investigations
    • From 2024 — pressure to reduce policy-holding stocks: the FSA strongly requested the 3 non-life megagroups to unwind policy-holding stocks (cross-shareholdings in corporations)
    • From 2024 — corporate fire-insurance cartel suspicions: JFTC on-site inspections over suspicions of premium coordination on large-scale properties
  • ms-ad · sompo-hd ── the 3 domestic non-life megagroups
  • mufg · smfg · mizuho-fg ── bank-affiliated FGs (a separate category from non-life, but cooperating / competing in corporate finance)
