Japanese insurance industry performance and recruitment

Overview

Reports from September 2026 highlight various performance rankings within the Japanese insurance sector. Initial data from comparison platforms identified top-performing products, including SBI Life’s ‘Click Term Neo!’ for life insurance and Medicare Life’s ‘New Medifit A Light Plan (25)’ for medical insurance. Hanasaku Life Insurance also showed strength in cancer and female-specific medical insurance categories.

Subsequent reporting focused on corporate recruitment effectiveness among new graduates. Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company maintained its position as the top-ranked company for the fourth consecutive year. The rankings indicated that life insurance firms held the three highest overall positions, with students prioritizing high-quality information design and polite communication during the selection process. This trend was reaffirmed in the 20th annual new graduate recruitment ranking, where Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance secured the top spot once again, reflecting high student satisfaction with the recruitment processes of life insurance companies.
