Huge Inefficiencies

Reasons for having no intention of making insurance contract

Cannot afford to pay premiums

Don’t feel the need

Age limit and health condition

◼ While the ratio of households with policies is roughly 90%, nearly 70% of survey respondents indicated that they have “insufficient knowledge” of life insurance, showing a clear asymmetry in the information possessed by the insurance company selling insurance and the customer buying it.

◼ Moreover, the No. 1 reason for not taking out life insurance among all age levels is that they “cannot afford to pay premiums”, so the industry is not meeting the needs of customers in terms of insurance premiums.

Huge Changes

(trillion yen)

Source: Strategic Directions and Priorities (published in 2015 through 2017) by Japan Financial Services Agency, E-Commerce Market Survey by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry

◼ The publication of Customer-Oriented Business Conduct Principles by the Financial Services Agency amongst other efforts have led to the promotion of the policy of “visualizing” financial institution conduct and the products sold to customers. Customer behavior and needs have changed along with changes in digital devices. These factors are changing the environment surrounding insurance companies.

Promoting Strict Observance of Fiduciary Duty

Each financial institution is required to manage their business in a customer-oriented manner to ensure market fairness and transparency.

Key Points in Financial Administration (Excerpt)

• The JFSA published the Customer-Oriented Business Conduct Principles and demands that on each financial institution, etc. that adopted the general principles publicly share information on their initiatives.

• Encourage disclosure of commissions.

• Better explain the existence of product risk, etc. (through materials).

• Encourage disclosure of customer-oriented initiatives.

Targeted Vision of Financial Administration

• Provide high quality financial products and services to customers.

• Build a framework that makes it easy for customers to compare financial products.

Changes in Purchasing Methods Due to the Proliferation of Smartphones

Purchases via smartphones are increasing as the size of the e-commerce market expands.

Trend in the Size of the B to C E-Commerce Market (Selling Goods)

Approximately 40% of purchases are made via smartphones.

◼ The number of people who prefer to enroll in life insurance through the Internet channel is increasing gradually.However, we think there is still substantial room for growth because there is a large gap between the percentage of actual enrollments and the percentage of those inclined to purchase online.

1. EEV is one of the calculation metrology of EV. The EEV Principles and related guidance were published in May 2004 by the CFO Forum, an organization comprising the chief financial officers of Europe's leading life insurers, in order to improve consistency and transparency in EV reporting.

2. Adjusted incremental EV consisted of components accurately reflecting our business growth.

◼ Based on the new management policy, we have adopted European Embedded Value (EEV) as an important management indicator to evaluate corporate value, and have established measurements for growth, profitability, and financial soundness that will support sustained growth in EEV.

Marketing expenses

Long-term profitability must be considered.

◼ Typically, large expenses are incurred when life insurance policies are acquired (1). However, because the profit is earned over a long period of time, there is a time lag between the recognition of costs and revenue. (2)

◼ In other words, the greater the growth in new business, the greater the negative impact on current period profits (3), thus necessary to look at embedded value (EV) to evaluate the corporate value of a life insurance company as it is an indicator of long-term profitability.

Insurance premiums are revenue that is

recognized over a long period of time (2)

The expenses incurred to acquire new business are mostly recognized in the initial fiscal year. The greater the growth in new business, the greater the increase in costs (1)

1. The ordinary profit (loss) before amortization of deferred assets under Article 113 of the Insurance Business Act from fiscal 2012 to fiscal 2016

◼ In fiscal 2015 – our year with the lowest number of new business – Lifenet was profitable under current statutory accounting ordinary profit and loss. In 2018 when we achieved a record high in new business, ordinary loss was 1.7 billion yen.

◼ There is a time lag between the recognition of costs and revenue, as marketing expenses are recognized at the time of acquisition. Moreover, Lifenet’s total in-force business is relatively small in proportion to its new business, and accordingly, the more new business grows, the more ordinary profit decreases.

Structure of Embedded Value

◼ Embedded value is the indicator of long-term profitability, and is the sum of adjusted net worth and value of in-force business.

◼ The value of in-force business is the future profit stream that will likely be derived from current policies, discounted to present value.

◼ Profit/loss for the current fiscal year is reflected in end-of-period net assets. In general, an increase in new business contributes to the increase in the value of in-force business in the period.
