The Golden Fellow program was introduced by the Life Insurance Association in 2017 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Excellent Certified Planner certification. Planners who have been certified as Excellent Certified Planners for five consecutive years or more are selected based on a comprehensive evaluation of their years of service, policy retention rate, and the rate of incomplete sales. Thanks to the active participation and support of the life insurance industry and Excellent Certified Planners, the Golden Fellow qualification is now regarded as the most prestigious title for life insurance planners.
This year, the Life Insurance Association selected 1,000 individuals as the 9th Golden Fellows. This represents approximately 6.7% of the 14,818 Excellent Certified Planners in 2025, and about 0.96% of the total 104,504 life insurance planners.
The Golden Fellows selected this year have served an average of 24 years and 5 months at their respective life insurance companies, with an average annual income of 248.87 million won. Their policy retention rates are also notably high, at 98% for the 13th installment and 97.1% for the 25th installment, setting an example for their fellow life insurance planners. These achievements are the result of their consistent efforts to recommend suitable life insurance products to those who need them and to provide ongoing policy management.
