Overview
Abacus Global Management, Inc. is an American alternative asset manager that has built its business around lifespan-based financial products, most notably life settlements. Founded in 2004, the company began by purchasing life insurance policies from consumers seeking liquidity and has since grown into a vertically integrated platform that originates, manages, and securitizes longevity-linked assets. It is the only publicly traded life settlement company in the United States, listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol ABX. The company reports having purchased over $10 billion in face value of life insurance policies since its founding and manages approximately $3.6 billion in assets under management. The firm operates through four main verticals: Abacus Life Solutions, which originates life settlement assets at scale; Abacus Intel, which provides proprietary data and technology for underwriting and portfolio management; Abacus Asset Group, which manages longevity-based funds and ETFs; and Abacus Wealth Advisors, which distributes data-driven financial strategies to advisors and clients. This structure allows Abacus to serve both consumers looking to monetize insurance policies and institutional investors seeking uncorrelated alternative assets. Abacus positions itself as a pioneer in redefining wealth management and financial planning through actuarial technology and proprietary longevity data. Its business model spans policy origination, asset management, and technology-driven investment strategies, giving it a distinct advantage as both originator and market maker in a highly regulated insurance marketplace. The company is led by CEO Jay Jackson and has been featured in financial media such as Barron's. It continues to expand its platform through strategic acquisitions and the development of new investment products.
