In applying the equity method, investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of the funds (which include changes in the fair value of the underlying securities in the funds). Such investments are generally recorded on a one to three month lag based on the availability of reports from the investment funds.
Equity in Net Income (Loss) of Investments Accounted For Using the Equity Method
The Company recorded equity in net income related to investments accounted for using the equity method of $278 million for 2023, compared to $115 million for 2022 and $366 million for 2021. In applying the equity method,
investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of the funds (which include changes in the market value of the underlying securities in the funds).
A summary of financial information for the Company’s investment funds and operating affiliates accounted for using the equity method is as follows:

Net income (loss)$592 $6,931 $8,547 
Certain of the Company’s other investments and investments accounted for using the equity method are in investment funds for which the Company has the option to redeem at agreed upon values as described in each investment fund’s subscription agreement. Depending on the terms of the various subscription agreements, investments in investment funds may be redeemed daily, monthly, quarterly or on other terms. Two common redemption restrictions which may impact the Company’s ability to redeem these investment funds are gates and lockups. A gate is a suspension of redemptions which may be implemented by the general partner or investment manager of the fund in order to defer, in whole or in part, the redemption request in the event the aggregate amount of redemption requests exceeds a predetermined percentage of the investment fund's net assets which may otherwise hinder the general partner or investment manager's ability to liquidate holdings in an orderly fashion in order to generate the cash necessary to fund extraordinarily large redemption payouts. A lockup period is the initial amount of time an investor is contractually required to hold the security before having the ability to redeem. If the investment funds are eligible to be redeemed, the time to redeem such fund can take weeks or months following the notification.
Limited Partnership Interests
In the normal course of its activities, the Company invests in limited partnerships as part of its overall investment strategy. Such amounts are included in ‘investments accounted for using the equity method’ and ‘investments accounted for using the fair value option.’ The Company determined that these limited partnership interests represented variable interests in the funds. The Company’s maximum exposure to
loss with respect to these investments is limited to the investment carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and any unfunded commitment.
The following table summarizes investments in limited partnership interests where the Company has a variable interest by balance sheet item:

(2)    Aggregate unfunded commitments were $32 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $17 million at December 31, 2022.

Investments in Operating Affiliates
Investments in which the Company has significant influence over the operating and financial policies are classified as ‘investments in operating affiliates’ on the Company’s balance sheets and are accounted for under the equity method. Such investments primarily include the Company’s investment in Coface SA (“Coface”), Greysbridge and Premia. Investments in Coface and Premia are generally recorded on a three month lag, while the Company’s investment in Greysbridge is not recorded on a lag.
In 2021, the Company completed the share purchase agreement with Natixis to purchase 29.5% of the common equity of Coface, a France-based leader in the global trade credit insurance market. The consideration paid was €9.95 per share, or an aggregate €453 million (approximately $546 million) including related fees. Income (loss) from operating affiliates reflected a one-time gain of $75 million realized from the acquisition. As a result of equity method accounting rules, approximately $36 million of additional gain was deferred and will generally be recognized over the next five years. As of December 31, 2023, the Company owned approximately 29.9% of the issued shares of Coface, or 30.1% excluding treasury shares, with a carrying value of $570 million, compared to $563 million at December 31, 2022.
In July 2021, the Company announced the completion of the previously disclosed acquisition of Somers by Greysbridge for a cash purchase price of $35.00 per common share.

Effective July 1, 2021, Somers is wholly owned by Greysbridge, and Greysbridge is owned 40% by the Company, 30% by certain investment funds managed by Kelso and 30% by certain investment funds managed by
Warburg. At December 31, 2023 the Company’s carrying value in Greysbridge was $430 million, compared to $306 million at December 31, 2022. The Company’s carrying value in Greysbridge reflected aggregate purchase price of $279 million along with income (loss) from operating affiliates, which included a one-time gain of $96 million recognized from the acquisition. See note 12, “Variable Interest Entity and Noncontrolling Interests.”
The Company recorded income from operating affiliates of $184 million for 2023, compared to $75 million for 2022 and $264 million for 2021.
