"Finance" is a support to protect future life and gain peace of mind. Ginza Sony Park says that now that anxiety, loneliness, and loneliness are pushed to the forefront of everyday life and we continue to run in tunnels that never escape, we need "poetry" that illuminates the darkness and stays close to life. Thought.

Finance is poetry.

When you are uneasy, when you are lonely, when you are lonely.
A word from someone who eased them.
The gently spoken word is
Like a star shining in the night sky
It will be a guide to illuminate the darkness.

For Sony Life Insurance
Designing (planning) people's lives,
There is a professional called a "life planner".
So that they can guide people's lives
Face each and every era,
I have spoken gently to each and every one of them.

Its appearance is like a warm poem.
Ginza Sony Park thought so,
I looked at "life" and "living" through poetry.

You may also come across poems that guide your life.

It seems wonderful that it is made without interruption. We continue our activities, believing that music also creates a [margin] in people's hearts.
