HSCM Ventures, the technology and venture investing arm of insurance, reinsurance, ILS and transportation focused investment firm Hudson Structured Capital Management Ltd., has led an $8 million Series B fundraising round for life insurtech Inclined Technologies.Inclined Technologies has created a platform to help policyholders maximise the living benefit of the cash value in their whole life insurance policies.The Inclined platform enables policyholders to connect with a broad range of financial institutions through a marketplace that helps to maximise efficiency, lowers barriers to access, enhance the customer experience, and foster a competitive rate environment for those looking to access value from their life insurance.HSCM Ventures, being part of the Hudson Structured family of companies, brings with it deep expertise in life insurance linked investments, with the firm allocating to life insurance and reinsurance opportunities over the years, in ILS and other formats.

HSCM Ventures had previously led Inclined’s Series A round, a $15 million tranche of investment back in 2022.Inclined said this Series B now values it at a premium to the Series A valuation, reflecting its continued growth and scale in what it sees as the “$5 trillion+ whole life insurance market.” Which drives home the size of the opportunity to assist policyholders in making their life policies work more appropriately for them, allowing value to be unlocked.Accessing the cash value of life insurance policies has always been a feature, but it’s never been simple to understand or easy to access, which Inclined aims to help policyholders with.

“We have thousands of whole life insurance advisors actively using the Inclined platform to serve their clients effectively, and that number is growing every day,” explained Joshua Wyss, CEO and co-founder of Inclined.“This funding will allow us to deliver additional product features and value to Northwestern Mutual and other leading whole life insurance carriers to help them unlock the $1.1 trillion currently invested in whole life insurance policies.” Hudson Structured, through its HSCM Bermuda and HSCM Ventures arms, offers a range of insurance-linked securities, reinsurance and insurtech investment opportunities and funds, often blending strategies using a wider range of asset types than is typically seen in the ILS sector..All of our Artemis Live insurance-linked securities (ILS), catastrophe bonds and reinsurance can be accessed online.
