Selection

He became President in June 2013, succeeding Shuzo Sumi. In the fiscal year ended March 2013, the year before he took office, ordinary income was ¥3,857.7 billion, ordinary profit ¥207.5 billion and net income attributable to owners of the parent ¥129.5 billion, a recovery from net income of just ¥6.0 billion the year before. In overseas insurance, the acquisition of Delphi Financial Group of the US had only just been completed in May 2012.

Initiatives

In June 2015 he announced the acquisition of HCC Insurance Holdings of the US for $78 a share, or $7.53 billion (about ¥940.0 billion), completing it that October. It brought in a specialty insurance group operating in every US state, the UK, Spain and elsewhere, and in yen terms the price was among the largest ever for an overseas acquisition by a Japanese financial institution. In 2018 and 2019, before he stepped down, major natural disasters struck Japan two years in a row.
