Basic Strategy

The Asset Management Business is highly capital-efficient, and we believe that the growth of this business will contribute to enhancing the corporate value of the entire Group. We provide optimal asset management solutions that leverage the strengths of each Group company, serving a wide range of customers-from institutional investors such as corporate pension funds to individual households. In addition, by utilizing the advanced investment capabilities of our asset management companies in Japan and overseas, we strengthen the asset management functions of our global life insurance operations and further improve the Group's overall profitability.

Individual initiatives

Expanding capital-light fee-based revenue and generating synergies with our insurance business

In addition to promoting the organic growth of our existing subsidiaries and affiliates, we aim to drive profit growth in our capital-light asset management business by leveraging inorganic opportunities, including strategic investments and partnerships. At the same time, we will enhance the competitiveness and differentiation of our insurance business by strengthening our investment capabilities and improving investment returns, while generating synergies by curbing fees paid to external managers. Looking ahead, we will proactively pursue partnerships and M&As with external companies to further enhance corporate value and expand our business.

Strengthening and Expanding Our Real Estate Asset Management Business

Japan's real estate asset management market continues to grow, and we are steadily advancing strategic initiatives to expand our real estate business. These include the integration of our real estate operations with Marubeni, as well as making &Do Holdings and Wealth Management, Inc. affiliated companies of the Group.
Under Daiichi Life Marubeni Real Estate, we have established a comprehensive real estate value chain encompassing development and property management, with real estate asset management as its core. By building a portfolio of high-quality assets that meet the needs of institutional investors, we aim to drive business growth and expand our assets under management (AUM).
