Providing these types of solutions in Japan is a key part of our core business strategy. Through the transfer of Anshin Life’s risk to Pacific Life Re, their organization is able to more efficiently manage and optimise their product portfolio, helping to achieve broader business objectives.”
The transaction was supported by global professional services firms Aon and Eversheds Sutherland, who provided advisory and legal services.
This agreement highlights Pacific Life Re’s ongoing commitment to offering customized risk management solutions in Japan’s insurance market.
