NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA releases research on the trend of private equity investment in the life and annuity market.
The report discusses how the factors driving insurers to divest—as well as the motivations of private equity/alternative asset managers (PE/AAM) to buy—are long-term considerations that will drive this investment trend to continue in the medium term. These drivers include strategic considerations, company valuations, investment opportunities, accounting considerations, scale, and expertise. In terms of considerations and rationales, consistent themes have emerged across a wide range of transactions, while implications for creditors and policyholders are nuanced.
