Since its foundation, Dai-ichi Life Vietnam has achieved exceptional growth and maintained its position as one of the top performers in the life insurance market.

Group president Inagaki pointed out that Vietnam has achieved remarkable economic growth and its life insurance market has expanded.
“We see further market expansion supported by sustainable economic development and a population of approximately 96 million people. We already send staff to Dai-ichi Life Vietnam’s headquarters in Ho Chi Minh City and, in addition, we are establishing a representative office in Hanoi, and sending new staff to represent us,” said Inagaki.
The Hanoi representative office will not only conduct research and surveys on the insurance market and regulatory trends, but also work on building relationships with relevant local authorities and Japanese companies in Vietnam. Moving forward, Dai-ichi Life Group will continue creating sustainable values by fully utilising its global trilateral structure which includes Japan, North America, and Asia-Pacific.
