Van Der Mandele Arar Fund Joost van der Mandele | “Our biggest position is meant to be a boring American life insurer trading at a P/E of 4. In the case of Jackson we have had some positive growth surprises in RILA sales in the past, and now they are also partnering with TPG. By partnering with a large global alternative asset manager, they can widen their product range and are expected to deliver better margins on their products. The stock has gone up over 20% on the back of this development. BSD Analysis: Jackson Financial has entered a landmark strategic partnership with TPG Inc. in early 2026, which includes a $500 million equity investment from TPG. This partnership allows Jackson to leverage TPG's private credit platform to support the "capital-efficient" growth of its fixed and fixed-indexed annuity sales. The company has also established Hickory Re, a new captive reinsurer, to optimize its spread-based business. For 2026, Jackson intends to utilize its increased capital generation to sustain its robust share repurchase program and dividend yield, which remains a core draw for value investors.” | BULL | Q4 2025 Feb 12, 2026 | View Pitch |
