Insurance Asset Management
The Madison Investments Insurance Solutions Team has been dedicated to serving the investment management needs of insurance entities for over 25 years.

With an average of over 30 years of experience in insurance company portfolio management, we understand the importance of Enterprise Risk Management and take a holistic approach to developing an investment strategy tailored to each company’s operational profile. We then develop a custom portfolio solution for our insurance partners through the expertise of Madison’s portfolio managers and analysts across our equity, fixed income, and multi-asset investment teams. Ultimately, our objective is to balance risk and return while effectively maximizing income generation and surplus growth opportunities for our insurance clients.
