Insurance Weekly News
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Insurance Weekly News -- Ladder, the company reinventing life insurance to be instant, simple and smart for today's consumers, continues to gain momentum as a leader in the future of life insurance. The company has just raised a $10M strategic investment from two of the most renowned companies in the insurance industry: Allianz Life Ventures and Northwestern Mutual Future Ventures. This investment extends Ladder's Series B funding to a total of $40M and will be used to continue to fund growth -- specifically hiring of engineers, marketers, and product-focused teams.
"We've been increasingly impressed with the innovations Ladder is bringing to the market," said Emily Reitan, VP of strategy and business development for Allianz Life. "Life insurance is a critical component of any solid financial plan, and both Allianz Life and Ladder share the common goal of ensuring Americans have the proper protection in place to help meet their financial goals."
