IGP network expands Down Under

TAL Life Limited Australia (TAL) has joined the International Group Program (IGP) Network as IGP’s new partner in Australia.

According to the two firms, the partnership allows multinational companies operating in Australia to incorporate group life insurance plans with TAL—including Death, Total Permanent Disability (TPD), and Income Protection—into multinational pooling or captive reinsurance. 

TAL is an Australian life insurance specialist, protecting over 5 million1 Australians across group, retail, and direct channels. In FY2024/2025 alone, TAL paid AUD 4.7 billion in claims to more than 54,000 customers and their families2. With over 150 years of experience, TAL is also recognised as a Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) Employer of Choice for Gender Equality, ten years running.

As part of the Dai-ichi Life Group, TAL brings global scale, deep local expertise, and a strong commitment to innovation and holistic employee wellbeing.

TAL added that it recognises the growing importance of the corporate segment within the Australian market. This new partnership provides global brokers and multinational clients with greater flexibility in designing employee benefits that:

• align with global benefit strategies

• enhance the employee value proposition

• offer integrated health and wellbeing services

• support talent retention and workforce resilience

TAL also said that its participation in IGP reflects a shared ambition to support employers and their people with tailored, future-ready protection solutions in Australia.
