Founded in 1902 as Japan's first mutual life insurance company, Dai-ichi Life has grown into a global financial services group. The company's mission is "By your side, for life," focusing on providing peace of mind through life insurance, pensions, and asset management services. After demutualizing and listing on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 2010, it established Dai-ichi Life Holdings, Inc. in 2016 to oversee its expanding domestic and international operations, which include significant presences in the Asia-Pacific region and North America.
