Reduction initiatives by Tokio Marine & Nichido
Tokio Marine & Nichido plans to accelerate the pace of reduction, aiming for a cumulative reduction of more than 600 billion yen over the 4 year period starting from fiscal year 2023. In fiscal year 2023, it achieved a reduction of 218.7 billion yen, a level exceeding the target. This led to the reduction of 2.7 trillion yen in cumulative total since our foundation year 2002 (on market value at the time of sale), and as of the end of March 2024, the book value of domestic equities held for business-relationship (hereinafter referred to as "Domestic Business-Relationship Equities") decreased to 28% compared to the end of March 2002.
In response to the recent business improvement order, as part of its efforts to improve the environment for proper competition, Tokio Marine & Nichido has decided to eliminate its holdings of Domestic Business- Relationship Equities by the end of fiscal year 2029 other than unlisted shares and equity investments, etc. made through capital and business alliances. For its achievement it will halve the balance of Domestic Business-Relationship Equities over 3 years during the Mid-Term Business Plan period beginning in fiscal year 2024. The ratio of Domestic Business-Relationship Equities to the Company's consolidated net assets based on IFRS standards is expected to be around 20% by the end of March 2027. We will continue to engage in attentive dialogue with investees and move forward with initiatives for still greater reductions.
