Delaware Life Supports Cabrera Capital Markets

Group 1001 believes in supporting and engaging with the communities where we live and work, including by supporting minority-owned businesses.

In line with this belief, Delaware Life Insurance Company, a Group 1001 company, has maintained an investment of between $50 million and $175 million in the Cabrera Capital Markets Class money market funds (CAHXX and CCMXX, the “MMF”) over the past several months.

Cabrera Capital Markets LLC is a leading Latino-owned investment bank and full-service institutional brokerage firm founded in 2001 whose clients include municipal, corporate, and advisory clients. They have issued over $330 billion in municipal debt and $400 billion in corporate debt and equities, and their trading desks transact over $1 billion in securities daily.

Delaware Life plans to use the Cabrera Capital Markets Class of the MMF for cash management activities.

"Cabrera Capital Markets is a strong financial services company and shares our philosophy of giving back to the communities they serve. Their partnerships with the Chicago public schools, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and the American Red Cross Honoring Our Heroes events, among others, make them a fitting partner for Delaware Life and aligns with our broader mission," said Jack Miceli, Life and Annuity Treasurer.

“Cabrera is committed to the communities we serve. From program sponsorships to employee volunteer opportunities, our goal is to make a positive impact within local communities and on individual lives,” said CEO and founder, Martin Cabrera.

Group 1001’s investment is expected to boost Cabrera's profile and potentially lead to increased opportunities for minority-owned businesses in the financial sector.

“I look forward to more opportunities for Group 1001 to collaborate with minority-owned businesses and invest in their growth and success,’’ Miceli said. “Together, we can foster an ecosystem that champions diversity, fosters equality, and sets a benchmark for excellence.’’
