are many other Japanese citizens who both need and want our products. We are
striving to simultaneously reach them while serving our current policyholders with
compassion and dedication.
As consumers contend with ongoing challenges related to Japan’s strained
financial system, growing medical expenses and an aging population, it is likely
the national health care system will face additional financial pressure. This means
Japanese citizens will bear even more of the health care burden. We believe these
additional costs will continue to drive consumers to pursue financial solutions to help
manage financial costs related to the increasing health care burden. Aflac Japan will
be there to provide relevant solutions that can help.
As we look to the future, we believe Aflac products will continue to provide
valuable insurance options for consumers. As we plan upcoming product and distri-
bution activities, we believe consumers will continue to benefit from our policy offerings
in the future and we will continue the solid legacy we’ve built over the last 40 years.
