• Delivers to insurers an integrated product innovation solution combining holistic balance sheet analytics, liability-driven investment differentiation, and access to permanent capital
• Powered by an AI-driven Asset Liability Management (ALM 3.0) platform

NEW YORK & MIAMI: Agam Capital, a global leader in insurance-related asset and liability analytics, and 1823 Partners (US) LLC, a differentiated asset management firm focused on insurance-first investment strategies, today announced that they have formed a long-term strategic partnership to serve global insurance companies. The partnership brings access to permanent capital through reinsurance to non-US insurers for in-force risk transfer or capital solutions and co-creation partnerships for new product design and flow reinsurance arrangements.

The partnership provides innovative design and management solutions for policyholder guarantees, enhanced asset capabilities in terms of sourcing, structuring and surveillance, and permanent equity capital to deliver sustained, alpha generation for insurance company partners and resilient outcomes for policyholders and other stakeholders.

The partnership draws on the complementary strengths of its founding members:

• 1823 Partners’ asset management capabilities across multiple sectors for long-term oriented investors, such as insurance companies, pension plans, and family offices; and
• Agam Capital’s deep expertise in insurance structuring and its proprietary balance sheet management technology platform.

Anant Bhalla, Co-Founder and CEO of 1823 Partners, said, “The Insurance industry value chain has splintered over the past 20+ years, resulting in fragmentation and a shift in value economics between liability distribution, balance sheet risk bearing capacity providers, and asset sourcing capability providers. Our unique end-to-end solution provides insurance companies with strong distribution access to the full stack of capabilities required to compete – product design, world-class ALM, access to long-dated capital and resilient, private asset sourcing, structuring, and ongoing surveillance. All of this is supported by ALM 3.0 infrastructure solutions that are required to thrive in a complex and ever-changing environment.”

Chak Raghunathan and Avi Katz, Co-Founders of Agam, said, “The fundamental challenge in insurance ALM has always been that the models in use were designed for a less fluid, simpler world. We have now designed and built a proprietary, AI-driven ALM platform from first principles to handle the complex realities of dynamic, turbulent global capital markets – integrating the full enterprise in real time, with AI agents that can price and manage risk dynamically. This partnership is how we put our combined capabilities to work for the benefit of global insurance companies.”

The Technology Foundation: pALM and LeadAii

Central to this partnership is pALM, Agam Capital’s proprietary asset-liability management platform. pALM is uniquely positioned as a platform that integrates actuarial modeling, asset management, accounting, risk management, and treasury management into a single unified ecosystem – providing a consistent version of truth across the enterprise.

Building on pALM’s foundation, Agam founders have developed LeadAii – a next-generation, multi-agent, AI-driven ALM platform. LeadAii deploys a network of autonomous agents capable of operating in real-time across the full complexity of insurance ALM challenges, from liability modeling and dynamic asset allocation to scenario analysis and stress-testing across interest rate, credit, and longevity risk factors.

LeadAii is built on proprietary large language models developed on open-source foundations and customized exclusively for life and retirement applications. The system operates within a fully isolated agentic framework – with no external data access and no data transfer outside the organization – addressing the hallucination and security risks that limit the deployment of general-purpose AI in regulated financial environments. Together, pALM and LeadAii deliver the turnkey ALM infrastructure that makes the partnership’s end-to-end model operationally viable at scale.

Initial Strategic Focus

The strategic partnership will target the Asian market with an initial focus on the Japanese insurance sector. Japan's life and retirement industry is undergoing significant regulatory and structural change, creating demand for precisely the integrated solutions offered by the partnership. The team will also pursue select opportunities in other markets where its integrated proposition – technology, access to assets and capital, and structuring expertise operating in concert – can deliver outcomes unavailable through traditional channels.
