The life insurance industry’s strength and long-term vision have endured since the publication of the first Fact Book in 1946. Our mission has remained consistent — delivering guarantees to people when they need them most. In 2024, life insurers paid $110 billion in annuity benefits, the most ever. Let’s celebrate this milestone and look forward to the next 80 years of innovation and growth in the industry.
The ACLI Life Insurers Fact Book provides statistics and information on trends in the life insurance industry. Specific topics covered include assets, liabilities, income, expenditures, reinsurance, life insurance, and annuities.
