NIPPONKOA Insurance Co., Ltd. was established in April 2001 through a merger of The Nippon Fire & Marine Insurance Co., Ltd. （founded in 1892）and The Koa Fire & Marine Insurance Co., Ltd.（founded in 1918）. Japan’s third-oldest non-life insurance provider, the Company commands more than 9% of Japan’s non-life insurance market, which ranks as one of the largest in the world, together with those of United States, Germany and England.

In December 2008 NIPPONKOA revised its “Car BOX” and other voluntary automobile insurance products to make them easier for customers to understand, and we also revised them with a more reasonable premium structure. We believe in providing socially responsible automobile insurance products, and this latest revision introduced a carbon-offset system to reinforce our efforts to combat global warming.

NIPPONKOA is working to promote the concept of Eco-Safe Driving as a means of contributing to environmental protection, reducing fuel consumption, and lowering accident rates.

“Eco-Safe Driving Contest”
NIPPONKOA sponsors a contest for corporate automobile users（fleets） to promote　“Eco-Safe Driving”.

“Eco-Drive Instructor Qualification System”
As another means of promoting the concept of “Eco-Safe Driving”, NIPPONKOA has developed its own “Eco-Drive Instructor Qualification System” under which its agencies or employees offer concrete eco-driving advice to customers.
