Brookfield Wealth Solutions Secures Major Japanese Reinsurance Deal

Brookfield Wealth Solutions has inked a substantial reinsurance pact with Dai-ichi Frontier Life, a prominent Japanese insurer. This arrangement, slated to kick off in October 2025, enables Dai-ichi Frontier Life to reinsure liabilities with Brookfield's U.S.-based subsidiary, American National Insurance Company, on a flow basis. This move further bolsters Brookfield's expanding presence in Japan.

Brookfield Wealth Solutions' foray into Japan commenced in 2015 with the appointment of Tomohide Yokooka as a Managing Director in its Tokyo office. Since then, the company has beefed up its local team and allied with hundreds of Japan's leading institutional and wealth investors. This latest agreement underscores the company's strategic significance in the region, given Japan's vast life insurance market and favorable macroeconomic trends.

The agreement facilitates the exchange of each class A exchangeable limited voting share of Brookfield Wealth Solutions on a one-for-one basis with a class A limited voting share of Brookfield Corporation. This marks a significant stride in Brookfield's commitment to its Japanese operations.

Brookfield Wealth Solutions, a leading purveyor of retirement services, wealth protection products, and customized capital solutions, continues to grow its business in Japan. The reinsurance agreement with Dai-ichi Frontier Life, set to commence in 2025, is anticipated to significantly broaden Brookfield's business in this market. The company remains dedicated to securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through its comprehensive suite of services.
