損保ジャパンに業務改善命令へ　月内に、ビッグモーター問題―金融庁

　中古車販売大手ビッグモーター（東京）による保険金不正請求問題で、金融庁が損害保険ジャパンに対し、今月下旬にも保険業法に基づく業務改善命令を出す方針を固めたことが１５日、分かった。ビッグモーターの不正行為を認識しながら取引再開を急ぐなど内部管理体制などに問題があると判断。改善計画の策定・実行と経営陣を含めた責任の所在の明確化を求める。

Japan's Financial Services Agency plans to issue a business improvement order to Sompo Japan Insurance Inc. as early as this month over insurance fraud at used car dealer Bigmotor Co., sources said Monday.
   The regulatory watchdog has judged that there was a problem with the nonlife insurer's internal management system, given that it resumed transactions with Bigmotor although it was aware of the company's misconduct.
   Under the insurance business law, the FSA is expected to order Sompo Japan to create and implement an improvement plan and identify who are responsible.
   The agency also plans to issue a business improvement order to Sompo Japan's parent, Sompo Holdings Inc., urging it to review its supervisory system as it failed to prevent the problem.
   The FSA began its on-site inspections of Sompo Japan in September 2023. It investigated the insurer's close relationship with Bigmotor, which accepted many Sompo Japan employees sent on loan.
