Insurance

We offer world-class solutions for insurance businesses in Japan in this era of accelerating globalization.

Liberalization of the Japanese insurance market has resulted in diversification of industry players, including the entry of foreign insurers and increased M&A activity. As Japan’s population continues to decline and the market matures, major domestic insurers are focusing on incorporating overseas market growth into their strategies.

Mori Hamada’s insurance practice provides both traditional services, such as insurance litigation and regulatory compliance, as well as advanced solutions, such as reinsurance and captives, assistance with licenses and permits, domestic and international M&A transactions, financing transactions, and group governance development. We also address international financial sanctions and the structuring of products and services to align with the changing times, covering areas like wellbeing, cybersecurity, disaster prevention and decarbonization. Our approach emphasizes a holistic perspective, considering trends among regulatory authorities in Japan and other markets.
