Mr Boyle has served as chief executive of Royal and Sun Alliance Insurance from 2002 to 2006 after 30 years in the insurance industry.
He has also been a non-executive director of QBE since 2006 and is a director of Clayton Utz lawyers and Stockland Trust Group.
Mr Kawahara is a group senior executive of Dai-ichi Life and has worked in the Dai-ichi Life group for 28 years.
Tal chair Rob Thomas welcomed both Mr Boyle and Mr Kawahara to the board and thanked Mr Yamamoto for his valuable service since 2012.
“As TAL has continued to grow its business in Australia, the new appointments help us renew the skillset on the board as TAL works hard to provide financial protection to even more Australians as the nation’s largest life insurer,” he said.
