Dai-ichi Life executive officer Shinichi Aizawa will become a director on the board of TAL, chair Rob Thomas has announced. 

Aizawa currently manages the Dai-ichi Life group’s overseas insurance business, having been with the life insurer since 1983, and has also gained experience from working in the US. 

Aizawa said the appointment would strengthen the relationship between both companies. 

“Since both TAL and Dai-ichi Life are life insurance specialists, Dai-ichi Life would like to enhance the partnership with TAL, help TAL continue to successfully grow and also explore the opportunity to share TAL’s practices and experiences with other group companies,” he said. 

Aizawa replaces Takayuki Kotani, who stepped down from the position at the end of March to take on a new leadership role within Dai-ichi Life. 

Thomas said TAL had been extremely successful during Kotani’s tenure. 

“We thank Mr Kotani for his collaboration and assistance in helping to ensure our success and wish him well in his new role,” he said.
