Abacus Global to Tokenize Entire Balance-Sheet Portfolio by Year-End 2026
ABX•Abacus Global has tokenized over 100 in-force policies and will put its full balance-sheet portfolio on-chain by end-2026. The program unlocks a $224 billion secondary segment of the $14 trillion U.S. life insurance market and shifts Abacus toward recurring-fee asset management with faster, more transparent trades.
1. Tokenization Initiative
Abacus Global has built an on-chain ledger for its secondary life insurance portfolio, already tokenizing over 100 in-force policies. By recording title, liens, and cash-flow rights on an immutable blockchain, the company aims to eliminate manual reconciliation and enable faster institutional trading.
2. Market Opportunity and Scale
The U.S. life insurance asset class holds $14 trillion in in-force policies, with a $224 billion secondary market. Tokenization seeks to unlock this segment by providing a single auditable source of truth, reducing operational barriers for domestic and international investors.
3. Business Model Transformation
This program shifts Abacus from an origination-driven model toward recurring-fee asset management by year-end 2026. Enhanced transparency, efficient settlement, and broadened investor access are expected to drive predictable cash flows and support fee-based revenue growth.
