Privately Placed Debt on Life Insurers’ Balance Sheets: Part 1—A Primer
Meisenzahl, Ralf R.; Polacek, Andy; Fournier, Anne (2024-05)
Life insurers buy long-term assets to match their long-term liabilities and hence are among the largest investors in corporate bonds.1 Over the past decade, insurance companies have shifted their corporate bond investments toward privately placed bonds (private placements). A private placement is an unregistered security that is sold to a limited pool of investors, primarily institutional investors, such as investment banks, pension funds, and insurers. While privately placed bonds accounted for 13% of life insurers’ bond investments in 2004, they accounted for over 20% in 2022 (figure 1).
