Bitcoin Hits the Insurance Mainstream: BlackRock & Delaware Life Lead the Way 🏦
A massive milestone for institutional adoption: Delaware Life has become the first U.S. insurer to integrate Bitcoin into its Fixed Index Annuity (FIA) portfolio.
Through the BlackRock U.S. Equity Bitcoin Balanced Risk 12% Index, retirees can now gain exposure to Bitcoin’s upside without the traditional "crypto-anxiety."
Key Highlights:
• The Structure: The index balances S&P 500 exposure with BlackRock’s IBIT (Bitcoin ETF).
• Risk Management: It utilizes a 12% volatility target, automatically adjusting allocations to protect the principal investment—a must for conservative insurance products.
• Institutional Scale: Delaware Life (part of Group 1001) manages over $76B in assets, signaling that this is a major strategic shift, not just a pilot program.
This move effectively bridges the gap between digital assets and long-term, regulated savings.
