The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The Insurance Clinic business benefited from an increase in store visits and completed contracts driven by web-based customer acquisition, an increase in the number of stores, and the effects of business acquisitions. The FA business performed well as a result of measures including new recruitment initiatives and became profitable. In the Solutions business, upfront investment to comply with amendments to the Insurance Business Act and to develop systems for the non-life insurance sector, along with higher selling expenses, weighed on profit.
