Note: 1. Annualized net premiums are calculated by multiplying the per-premium payments by a multiplier

that depends on the premium payment terms. For single-premium contracts, the amount is calculated by dividing the premium by the duration of the policy.

2. "Medical and survival benefits" include annualized net premiums related to medical benefits

(e.g. hospitalization and surgery benefits), survival benefits (e.g. specified illness and nursing care benefits), and premiums related to premium waiver benefits (e.g. excluding disability-related causes but including causes related to specified illness and nursing care).

2. Investment of General Account Assets

(1) Investment Environment

During the six months ended September 30, 2021, the global economy continued to recover. Developed countries in Europe and the United States, which had advanced vaccination, showed a rapid recovery. On the other hand, in emerging countries where vaccination was relatively delayed, recovery was delayed due to the spread of delta mutant infections.As for the Japanese economy, the recovery of the overseas economy led to a recovery in exports, while the declaration of a state of emergency in Tokyo and other areas limited the recovery of the economy. During most of the first half of the fiscal year, regulations on sales to the interpersonal service industry continued, resulting in a gap in the pace of economic recovery compared with the advanced economies of Europe and the United States.

Given the economic environment described above, the investment environment was as follows:

[Domestic interest rates]

As fot the yield on 10-year JGBs, the BOJ's Yield Curve Control continued. As the short-term interest rate was minus 0.1% and the 10-year interest rate target of 0% continued, the 10-year interest rate remained near 0%.

Yield on ten-year government bonds:

April 1, 2021

0.090%

September 30, 2021

0.065%

[U.S. Interest Rates and Foreign Currency]

The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note, while having increased to above 1.7% at the end of March due to expectations surrounding the reopening of the economy due to the additional economic stimulus packages and increasing COVID-19 vaccination rates, edged lower following the spread of delta mutant infections and unexpected disappointing job data. The US dollar against the Japanese yen hovered in a narrow band centered on USD/JPY110 from the end of March. However, the dollar appreciated against the yen to nearly USD/JPY112, as the September FOMC meeting favored QE tapering before the end of the year, and prospects for an early interest rate hike increased.

Yield on ten-year U.S. government bonds:

April 1, 2021

1.740%

September 30, 2021

1.487%

yen/U.S. dollar:

April 1, 2021

¥110.71

September 30, 2021

¥111.92

[Australian Interest Rates and Foreign Currency]

The ten-year Australian government bond yield fell amid worries over the economic slowdown following extended lockdowns in major cities after the spread of delta mutant infections. The Australian dollar fell against the Japanese yen, due to the impact of the lockdowns and the Reserve Bank of Australia's indication that it will retain its accommodative guidance, with no rate rises foreseen until 2024.

Yield on ten-year Australian government bonds:

April 1, 2021

1.781%

September 30, 2021

1.490%

yen/Australian dollar:

April 1, 2021

84.36

September 30, 2021

80.46

(2) Investment Policies

In view of the liability characteristics of life insurance policies, assets in the general account are invested in accordance with asset- liability management (ALM) principles with the primary objective of steadily paying annuities, insurance proceeds, and benefits over the long term. As to the yen- and foreign currency-denominated fixed products, those assets are primarily invested in yen-denominated bonds and foreign currency-denominated bonds.

Also, trades are to be carried out for the purposes such as mitigating the guaranteed minimum benefit risk on individual variable annuities.
