# ライフネット生命保険 (LifeNet Insurance)

## Wiki route

This entry sits under [[life-insurers/INDEX|life-insurers INDEX]]. Read it against [[life-insurers/dai-ichi-life|第一ライフグループ / 旧 第一生命 HD]] for peer / contrast context and [[insurance/INDEX|insurance index]] for the broader system / regulatory boundary.

## TL;DR

ライフネット生命保険は、FSA の life-insurance-company list に掲載される国内生命保険会社で、IR site は同社を "Japan's leading online life insurer" と位置づける。^[source:fsa-life-list-2026][source:lifenet-ir-home-2026] Stock Information は証券コード **7157**、Tokyo Stock Exchange **Prime**、2026-03-31 時点の発行済株式数 80,340,768 株を示す。^[source:lifenet-stock-2026] 2026-06-18 には au Financial Holdings が保有していた 14,726,100 株が Japan Airlines に移転し、JAL が議決権 18.33% を持つ major shareholder になった。^[source:lifenet-jal-transfer-2026] そのため、このページでは同社を「ネット専業生保」だけでなく、**上場 online insurer + partner-embedded distribution platform** として読む。

## 1. Entity / licence boundary

| Item | Reading |
|---|---|
| Legal name | ライフネット生命保険株式会社 / LIFENET INSURANCE COMPANY。^[source:fsa-life-list-2026] |
| Listed security | TSE Prime, securities code 7157。^[source:lifenet-stock-2026] |
| Licence boundary | FSA English life-insurer list に LIFENET INSURANCE COMPANY として掲載。^[source:fsa-life-list-2026] |
| Business model boundary | IR home は customer-oriented, easy-to-understand, affordable, convenient life-insurance policies を掲げる online insurer と説明。^[source:lifenet-ir-home-2026] |
| Solvency regime | 2026-03-31 から Economic Value-based Solvency Framework が導入され、FY2025 financial results は regulatory ESR 333%、internal ESR 394% と説明。^[source:lifenet-fy2025-results-2026] |

## 2. Business model

### Direct online economics

ライフネットは、営業職員網や店舗網を前提にした大手生保とは違い、オンライン申込と partner embedded distribution を軸にする。IR site は「わかりやすく、安く、便利な」商品・サービスを mission 文脈で説明し、FY2025 presentation は annualized premiums of policies-in-force が YoY 8% 増、insurance service results が YoY 21% 増だったと示す。^[source:lifenet-ir-home-2026][source:lifenet-fy2025-presentation-2026]

| Lane | Reading |
|---|---|
| Individual online life | Core franchise is simple online life-insurance UX; old "internet-only" label is useful but no longer sufficient because partner channels are expanding. |
| Embedded / partner business | FY2025 presentation names JAL, KDDI Group and SMBC Group as ecosystems for partner-business expansion.^[source:lifenet-fy2025-presentation-2026] |
| Group credit life | FY2025 presentation notes GCL partnerships, including a second new bank, so housing-loan / bank-adjacent insurance should be analyzed separately from retail direct life.^[source:lifenet-fy2025-presentation-2026] |
| Capital-market positioning | Since the listing is TSE Prime as of the 2026 stock page, this is no longer just a Growth-market startup case. It is a listed insurer with growth-stock expectations and insurance-regulatory capital constraints.^[source:lifenet-stock-2026] |

## 3. Shareholder / channel relationship

| Date / state | Reading |
|---|---|
| 2026-03-31 stock page | au Financial Holdings was listed as largest shareholder with 14,726,100 shares / 18.32% of shares outstanding; the page notes all such shares were transferred to JAL on 2026-06-18.^[source:lifenet-stock-2026] |
| 2026-06-18 transfer | Lifenet announced JAL had obtained regulatory approval as a major shareholder of an insurance company on 2026-06-17 and completed the share transfer on 2026-06-18.^[source:lifenet-jal-transfer-2026] |
| 2026-06-22 governance update | Lifenet announced JAL became a major shareholder with 18.33% voting rights and an other associated company after the 2026-06-21 shareholder-meeting director appointment.^[source:lifenet-associated-company-2026] |
| KDDI / au relationship | KDDI / auFH ceased to be other associated companies, but the 2026-06-22 release says Lifenet's independent decision-making was ensured during the auFH / KDDI associated-company period.^[source:lifenet-associated-company-2026] |

This page therefore links to [[megabanks/au-fh]] for the historical telco-finance partnership, but the current 2026 channel map must also treat JAL as the new strategic airline ecosystem partner. FinWiki does not yet maintain a standalone JAL finance page, so JAL remains an external-source fact here rather than a wikilink target.

## 4. Solvency / insurer capital reading

The old solvency-margin ratio remains useful for legacy comparison, but Lifenet's latest FY2025 results explicitly shift the supervisory discussion to ESR from the March 2026 framework. The page should read insurer capital as a binding design constraint on growth:

- 2026-03-31 regulatory ESR: **333%**; internal ESR: **394%**, both described as preliminary in the FY2025 results release.^[source:lifenet-fy2025-results-2026]
- Growth metrics such as annualized premiums and insurance service results should be read together with capital adequacy, because online acquisition spending and embedded distribution can accelerate new business but still consumes insurance risk capital.^[source:lifenet-fy2025-presentation-2026]
- The JAL transaction required regulatory approval as a major shareholder of an insurance company, showing that strategic-distribution shareholding changes are also insurance-regulatory events, not only equity-market events.^[source:lifenet-jal-transfer-2026]

## 5. Competitive map

| Peer / category | Contrast |
|---|---|
| [[life-insurers/orix-life|ORIX Life]] | Hybrid insurer using agents, financial institutions, mail-order / online sales and Conserve Advisors, not a pure online-direct model. |
| [[megabanks/sbi-hd|SBI group insurance]] | Internet-finance ecosystem competitor, with banking / securities / insurance bundling logic. |
| [[megabanks/paypay-fg|PayPay / SoftBank insurance routes]] | Super-app / payment ecosystem insurance contrast. |
| Major traditional insurers | Large legacy agent / bancassurance / workplace channels; contrast with Lifenet's online-first and embedded-partner strategy. |
