Dai-ichi Life Suspected Fraud Sales Representative Headquarters Directly Supervises New Organization Establishment November 7, 4:33

A 89-year-old former employee of Dai-ichi Life is said to have illegally collected about 1.9 billion yen from customers, and the company has added a new report to the Financial Services Agency to prevent recurrence. The policy is to include the establishment of an organization.

At Dai-ichi Life, a former 89-year-old female employee who was based in Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, offered a fictitious deal to a customer last month and illegally collected about 1.9 billion yen from at least 21 people. It became clear that there was suspicion.



In response to this problem, the Financial Services Agency has issued a "report request order" requesting that detailed circumstances and causes be reported based on the law, and Dai-ichi Life will submit a report at the beginning of the week.



According to people familiar with the matter, the report will include a new organization within the fiscal year in which the head office directly supervises sales representatives suspected of being fraudulent in order to prevent recurrence.



The company also knew that the former employee was given the title of "special investigator" even after the age of 85, when the contract was not renewed because of the excellent sales performance of the insurance, and he continued to work. After submitting a report to the Financial Services Agency, we will announce the contents.
