Performance and Operational Review

As a strategic company of the T&D Life Group which specializes in selling insurance products through independent insurance agents, T&D Financial Life is working to expand the presence of the T&D Life Group.

T&D Financial Life specializes in providing insurance products through independent insurance agents including banks, securities firms and insurance shop agents which handle products from multiple insurers. The new policy amount for T&D Financial Life in fiscal 2015 was ¥236.2 billion, down 26.8% year on year. The new policy amount for single premium products was ¥152.4 billion, while the new policy amount for level premium products was ¥83.8 billion. The policy amount in force for products sold through independent insurance agents was up 6.0% from the previous fiscal year-end to ¥1,156.5 billion, mainly due to an increase in the new policy amount, which outweighed decreases due to the lump-sum payment of annuities upon the maturity of variable individual annuities.

MCEV was ¥93.4 billion as of March 31, 2016, a decrease of ¥2.3 billion from the previous fiscal year-end. However, the value of new business was ¥3.5 billion, an increase of ¥1.1 billion from the previous fiscal year-end mainly due to the higher new policy amount of Shogai Premium World 3, a foreign currency-linked single premium whole life insurance product.
