Chairman & CEO Jay Jackson joined The Big Biz Show to discuss Abacus Global Management’s position in the life settlement market and why the company views itself as a data-driven asset manager rather than an insurance company. The conversation highlighted Abacus’ role in providing liquidity to life insurance policyholders, managing longevity-based assets for institutions, and leveraging the data generated across its platform to inform smarter investment decisions.

The discussion also explored the growing momentum behind LifeARC™ and how personalized health and longevity data could change traditional retirement planning. Jackson explained why conventional actuarial models and one-size-fits-all assumptions can overlook meaningful differences between individuals, and how a more personalized understanding of lifespan can help investors avoid becoming overly conservative too early, improve retirement income, and make more informed long-term financial decisions.
