Long money expands long-term investment paths, and insurance funds actively participate in private equity funds.

Tianyan information shows that Tianjin Lanqin Equity Investment Partnership Enterprise was established recently, with Taikang Life and many other insurance companies appearing as partners. Since 2026, insurance funds have frequently participated in private equity fund investments, with head insurance companies such as China Life and New China Insurance unveiling new projects. Industry insiders say that against the backdrop of policies continuously encouraging long-term investments, insurance funds are accelerating their participation in national strategic emerging industries and industries that are synergistic with their core insurance business through layout of private equity funds and other means. Behind this phenomenon, there is also a more urgent need for insurance funds to match assets and liabilities: in a low interest rate environment, private equity investments can help insurance companies reduce duration gaps and increase long-term investment income sources.
