Fund Portrait

The Absolute Return Fund IV is a closed-end investment fund managed by Carlisle Management Company S.C.A., operating under the Abacus Global Management brand. The fund targets a net annualized return of 15%+ by investing in the U.S. secondary life insurance, policies sold by seniors who no longer need or can afford them.
Leveraging over 80 years of combined team experience and a proprietary direct-to-consumer sourcing platform, the fund builds diversified portfolios optimized through rigorous actuarial underwriting and stress testing. With low correlation to traditional financial markets, high credit quality, and predictable, self-liquidating cash flows, the fund offers institutional investors a socially responsible and capital-efficient alternative asset class. The fund is structured to deliver quarterly distributions and aims to fully deploy committed capital within 10–12 months.
