SEC filingCorebridge Financial elected Hirotaka Inoue as a director effective April 21, 2026, replacing Minoru Kimura as a Nippon Life designee following a Board waiver allowing Nippon Life to retain three seats.
The election of Hirotaka Inoue represents a planned transition of a Nippon Life designee seat on the Corebridge Board. Mr. Inoue brings significant expertise in global insurance regulation and financial risk oversight, currently serving as Executive Officer and Head of Regulatory and Market Intelligence at Nippon Life Insurance Company. His background includes senior leadership roles at the Bank of Japan and secondment to the Financial Stability Board Secretariat. The appointment follows a reduction in Board size from 13 to 11 members and a waiver granted to Nippon Life allowing it to maintain three designees rather than the two it would be entitled to under the strict terms of the Stockholder’s Agreement. Concurrently, AIG waived its right to designate Board members, reducing its presence to zero. Mr. Inoue was determined to be an independent director under NYSE standards and was nominated to stand for election at the 2026 annual meeting.
