+29.0%Phase 1: Emergence of Online-only Insurance CompaniesOur first insurance project was the construction of a front desk system for LIFENET INSURANCE COMPANY, a pioneer in the online insurance industry. They highly evaluated the UI/UX capability that we had cultivated over many years in Financial Retail, which was key to securing the contract. This experience subsequently led to the expansion of the online sales channel of a comprehensive insurance company, and the number of clients has been growing since then.Phase 2: Establishment of a core systemThe deregulation of the life insurance industry has encouraged new entrants into the industry, and this has brought a turning point for Simplex. We received an order for a core system construction project from a company entering the life insurance industry from a different industry sector. Around the same time, in 2022, we won a contract from an online-only, non-life insurance company for a project to renew their core system to feature an overseas package. We also built a core system covering all tasks of insurance operations, with a focus on policy administration, which plays an important role in operations for any insurance company.Phase 3: For legacy system renewalTraditional Japanese insurance companies are undertaking important initiatives to revamp legacy systems. However, they are struggling to find effective solutions due to difficulties in migrating data and a shortage of human resources. Our goal under Vision1000, to be achieved in the early 2030s, is to be a company that can assist major insurance companies in legacy system renewal efforts. Currently, through various system construction projects, we are working to expand the library required for large-scale legacy system renewal.
