Market Risk Reduction and ESR

  • ESR increased compared to the end of FY2022, due to progress in risk reduction and positive market factors such as higher stock prices, rising yen interest rates, and the depreciation of the yen.
  • Market sensitivity has changed, showing a decline in ESR with rising yen interest rates due to increased mass surrender risk. DLHD will continue to reduce equity risk as outlined in the medium-term management plan and aim to lower sensitivity by addressing surrender risk.

(Reference) Definition of each surrender risk

  1. Normal surrender risk: Amount of decrease in net assets when a certain level of stress is applied to the surrender rate over the contract period in the measurement model (J-ICS compliant).
  2. Mass surrender risk: Decrease in net assets in the event of sudden stress on the surrender rate (J-ICS compliant)
  3. Dynamic surrender risk: Risk of losses incurred due to fluctuations in surrender rates for savings products, such as single-payment whole life insurance, due to switching to other financial products in response to changes in market interest rates, etc.

6

Outlook for Group Risk Profile Transformation

  • While interest rate risk has steadily decreased, equity risk has increased compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due to the rise in domestic stock prices, leading to an increase in required capital.
  • Surrender risk has increased, driven by a rise in mass surrender risk associated with higher interest rates, exceeding the usual surrender risk.

New Business Results (Group Value of New Business)

  • Group VNB decreased by 30% YoY, with DFL performing steadily under the new standards, while DL saw declines, excluding the increase in the group annuity business. PLC's VNB for some products turned negative, and at DLVN, sales slumped due to a decline in sales momentum.
  • With the recovery in DL's sales and an increase in new contracts in TAL, the forecast for FY2024 is expected to be approximately ¥105bn.

Economic Value (Group EV)

  • Group EV increased thanks to higher domestic interest rates and an increase of valuation in domestic stocks as stock prices increased, which contributed mainly to DL's EV.
  • Sensitivity of Group EV to interest rates continued to decline while DL's sensitivity to equities increased from the end of Mar. 2023, but through domestic stock sales, DL's sensitivity to equities is expected to decline.
