Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract] |
Investments | Investments The majority of the investment portfolio comprises investment grade fixed-maturity securities managed by three outside managers.

The remainder of the investment portfolio primarily consists of (i) Loss Mitigation Securities; (ii) New Recovery Bonds and CVIs received in connection with the consummation of the 2022 Puerto Rico Resolutions; (iii) other investments including certain fixed-maturity and short-term securities, and (iv) equity method investments. Equity method investments primarily consist of generally less liquid alternative investments including an investment in renewable and clean energy and private equity funds.

___________________ (1) The number of securities does not add across because lots consisting of the same securities have been purchased at different times and appear in both categories above (i.e., less than 12 months and 12 months or more). If a security appears in both categories, it is counted only once in the total column. The Company considered the credit quality, cash flows, interest rate movements, ability to hold a security to recovery and intent to sell a security in determining whether a security had a credit loss. The Company has determined that the unrealized losses recorded as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were related to higher interest rates rather than credit quality. As of June 30, 2023, the Company did not intend to and was not required to sell investments in an unrealized loss position prior to expected recovery in value. As of June 30, 2023, of the securities in an unrealized loss position for which an allowance for credit loss was not recorded, 508 securities had unrealized losses in excess of 10% of their carrying value, whereas as of December 31, 2022, 567 securities had unrealized losses in excess of 10% of their carrying value. The total unrealized loss for these securities was $269 million as of June 30, 2023 and $329 million as of December 31, 2022. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities by contractual maturity as of June 30, 2023 are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Income from Investments Net investment income is a function of the yield that the Company earns on available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities and short-term investments, and the size of such portfolio. The investment yield is a function of market interest rates at the time of investment as well as the type, credit quality and maturity of the securities in this portfolio. Puerto Rico CVIs in the investment portfolio are classified as trading securities.
