- Abacus Life, Inc. (Ticker: ABLLW), founded in 2004 and headquartered in Orlando, Florida, operates as a leading buyer of life insurance policies and a vertically integrated alternative asset manager specializing in specialty insurance products. The company’s core offerings include life settlements, whereby it purchases life insurance policies from consumers seeking liquidity, actively managing these policies to optimize their value. Abacus Life also provides advanced actuarial and longevity data-driven financial solutions via its Technology Services segment, including real-time mortality verification and policy servicing. Its product suite encompasses active management of policy portfolios, origination of insurance-linked assets, asset management, portfolio servicing, and technology-based services for the life insurance market. The company serves a wide geographic base primarily in the United States and has expanded globally through strategic acquisitions.
In recent major developments, Abacus Life rebranded to Abacus Global Management, Inc. in February 2025, reflecting its broader scope as a global asset manager. The company completed significant acquisitions including Carlisle Management Company SCA, a Luxembourg-based investment manager with approximately $2 billion in assets under management, and FCF Advisors, a New York-based asset manager with $600 million in assets under management. These acquisitions substantially enhance Abacus Life’s scale and capabilities in life insurance-linked investment management and institutional asset management. Additionally, Abacus Life has entered a national distribution partnership with AIMCOR to become a preferred partner for life settlement solutions. These strategic moves strengthen Abacus Life’s position as a pioneering provider of uncorrelated financial products and lifespan-based financial solutions, offering institutional and individual investors innovative access to alternative asset classes with stable, long-term returns.
Abacus Life operates across five segments: Active Management, Originations, Asset Management, Portfolio Servicing, and Technology Services. It offers products and services directly to consumers, through financial advisors, brokers, and traditional life settlement intermediaries. With over $10 billion in face value of policies purchased and over $3 billion in assets under management as part of its expanded global footprint, Abacus Life combines proprietary actuarial technology and longevity data to revolutionize life insurance settlement and investable asset classes, focusing on lifecycle and longevity risk solutions in the financial services sector. The company's comprehensive platform supports both individual policyholders seeking liquidity and institutional investors targeting specialty insurance-linked alternative investments.
Abacus Life, Inc. is positioned as a market leader in life settlements and insurance-linked asset management, leveraging technology and strategic acquisitions to expand its services and global presence. Its headquarters remain in Orlando, Florida, and it continues to prioritize innovation, transparency, and investor success in life insurance-based financial products. The company employs over 150 staff and has demonstrated rapid revenue growth and operational expansion through its recent acquisitions and partnerships in the 2024-2025 period.
