MANULIFE TO BUY DAIHYAKU INSURANCE BUSINESS
Date: 10 February 1999
By Bloomberg News
Bloomberg News
The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of Canada said it would pay 80 billion yen, or $703.8 million (United States), for the business of the Daihyaku Life Insurance Company of Japan, becoming the second foreign insurer to buy into the world's largest life insurance market. Daihyaku will transfer most of its sales and support staff of 6,800 to a joint venture with Manulife, Canada's largest mutual life insurer. Manulife will own 75 percent of the venture, and Daihyaku will own the rest. Deregulation and Japan's weakening economy are providing opportunities for foreign companies to enter the Japanese insurance market, which, with annual premiums of $500 billion, is about twice the size of its counterpart in the United States. GE Capital Services, a unit of the General Electric Company, is already active there.
