Reinsurance Disclosures [Abstract] |
F&G Reinsurance | F&G Reinsurance The Company reinsures portions of its policy risks with other insurance companies. The use of indemnity reinsurance does not discharge an insurer from liability on the insurance ceded. The insurer is required to pay in full the amount of its insurance liability regardless of whether it is entitled to or able to receive payment from the reinsurer. The portion of risks exceeding the Company's retention limit is reinsured. The Company primarily seeks reinsurance coverage in order to manage loss exposures, to enhance our capital position, to diversify risks and earnings, and to manage new business volume. The Company follows reinsurance accounting when the treaty adequately transfers insurance risk. Otherwise, the Company follows deposit accounting if there is inadequate transfer of insurance risk or if the underlying policy for which risk is being transferred is an investment contract that does not contain insurance risk. Refer to Note A - Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for more information over our accounting policy for reinsurance agreements. The effects of reinsurance on net premiums earned and net benefits incurred (benefits paid and reserve changes) for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 respectively, were as follows (in millions):

Amounts payable or recoverable for reinsurance on paid and unpaid claims are not subject to periodic or maximum limits. No policies issued by the Company have been reinsured with any foreign company, which is controlled, either directly or indirectly, by a party not primarily engaged in the business of insurance. The Company has not entered into any reinsurance agreements in which the reinsurer may unilaterally cancel any reinsurance for reasons other than non-payment of premiums or other similar credit issues. The following summarizes our reinsurance recoverable (in millions):
Parent Company/ Principal Reinsurers |  | Reinsurance Recoverable (a) |  | Agreement Type |  | Products Covered |  | Accounting

Reinsurance recoverable, net of allowance for credit losses |  | $ | 8,960 |  |  | $ | 5,417 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
(a) Reinsurance recoverables do not include unearned ceded premiums that would be recovered in the event of early termination of certain traditional life policies.
(b) As of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the combined quota share flow reinsurance amongst all reinsurers was 90% and 75%, respectively.
(c) Also includes certain FGL Insurance life insurance policies that are subject to redundant reserves, reported on a statutory basis, under Regulation XXX and Guideline AXXX.
(d) Reinsurance recoverable is collateralized by assets placed in a statutory comfort trust by the reinsurer and maintained for our sole benefit.
(e) Represents all other reinsurers, with no single reinsurer having a carrying value in excess of 5% of total reinsurance recoverable.
The Company incurred risk charge fees of $39 million, $36 million, and $28 million during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, in relation to reinsurance agreements. Credit Losses The Company estimates expected credit losses on reinsurance recoverables using a probability of default/loss given default model. Significant inputs to the model include the reinsurer's credit risk, expected timing of recovery, industry-wide historical default experience, senior unsecured bond recovery rates, and credit enhancement features. The expected credit loss reserves were as follows (in millions):
| Years ended

Balance at Beginning of Period | $ | (10) |  |  | $ | (20) |  |  |
Provision for losses | (11) |  |  | 10 |  |  |
Charge offs | — |  |  | — |  |  |
Balance at End of Period | $ | (21) |  |  | $ | (10) |  |  |
Concentration of Reinsurance Risk As indicated above, the Company has a significant concentration of reinsurance risk with third party reinsurers, Aspida Re, Wilton Reinsurance (“Wilton Re”), Somerset and Everlake Life Insurance Company (“Everlake”) that could have a material impact on our financial position in the event that any of these reinsurers fails to perform its obligations under the various reinsurance treaties. We monitor the financial condition and financial strength of individual reinsurers using public ratings (refer to table below) and ratings reports of individual reinsurers to attempt to reduce the risk of default by such reinsurers. In addition, the risk of non-performance is further mitigated with various forms of collateral or collateral arrangements, including secured trusts, funds withheld accounts and irrevocable letters of credit. We believe that all amounts due from Aspida Re, Wilton Re, Somerset and Everlake for periodic treaty settlements, net of any applicable credit loss reserves, are collectible as of December 31, 2023. The following table presents financial strength ratings as of December 31, 2023:
Parent Company/Principal Reinsurers |  | Financial Strength Rating
|  | AM Best |  | S&P |  | Fitch |  | Moody's
Aspida Life Re Ltd |  | A- |  | not rated |  | not rated |  | not rated
