This marks the first time in Japan that a banking app integrates life insurance management. Customers can now check policies, premiums, and contract details directly from the app without accessing insurance company websites or physical documents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The app, which links to over 20 insurers and 70 products, requires only user agreement to access the feature. This innovation aims to improve convenience for users managing their finances and reviewing insurance plans. The bank is considering additional features, such as maturity notifications, to further enhance functionality. <\/span><b>Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbank.co.jp\/assets\/a5d6dd906a3c43e5bbf96d8adc3d2a13\/a0917168e79e41ab84585edafdf23fd0\/250122-02.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nishinippon City Bank<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-168484\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/fnn_ncb-app-insurance_2025_WEB.jpeg?resize=1400%2C1214&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Nishinippon City Bank Launches First-in-Japan Life Insurance Management via Banking App\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/fnn_ncb-app-insurance_2025_WEB.jpeg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/fnn_ncb-app-insurance_2025_WEB.jpeg?resize=300%2C260&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/fnn_ncb-app-insurance_2025_WEB.jpeg?resize=1024%2C888&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/fnn_ncb-app-insurance_2025_WEB.jpeg?resize=768%2C666&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
