Management Policy

Lifenet adopted a new Management Policy in FY2024 as a guide for continuing our strong business growth while enhancing our corporate value and addressing social issues.​

 

Our Mission, which is our management philosophy, is the LIFENET Manifesto. Our Vision is to build on our proud achievements under our previous Management Policy expanding the life insurance market as the leading online life insurer, and the new Management Policy renews our determination to be the company creating the future of life insurance.

Our Value is based on the fundamental idea that human resources are essential to realizing our Vision. With our growing business and expanding organization, we have renewed our commitment to the Manifesto and clarified the values that our executives and employees cherish, which we call the Lifenetter Values. We also remain dedicated to maintaining the customer’s perspective in how we conduct our business.​

Outcome goal

Following our management policy, we set an “outcome goal” for the society we want to achieve, which is “a society where next generations can be nurtured with confidence in the future.” We have set “market penetration rate of online life insurance,” “prospect for the future life ,” and “ease of raising children” as reference indicators for our progress toward our outcome goals.​

We believe the demand for life insurance is strong, but that both time and cost present significant barriers to acquiring a policy.​

Recognizing this situation, we created an online life insurance company that offers policies with the necessary coverage at appropriate prices and purchases and other transactions at times that are the most convenient for the customer. In accordance with our Manifesto, we focused our business particularly on younger generations who are at the age of raising children.​

​The Management Policy announced in May 2024 calls for directly addressing important social issues and for helping create a world where everyone can live their preferred lifestyle and take on new challenges, even when the future is unknown. Our outcome goal describes the society we want to help make. Japan is facing a declining birthrate, aging society, and other pressing social issues, and our goal is to help create a society where future generations can be raised with peace of mind.

Mid-term Business Plan

Value Creation Process

Through our corporate activities based on the LIFENET Manifesto of “Sincere, Easy-to-understand, Affordable and Convenient.” we aim to provide new value in life insurance, solve our customers' problems related to life insurance, and ultimately realize “a society where next generation can be nurtured with confidence in the future.”
