Current year incurred losses were $1.8 billion and $1.7 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Gross and net reserves increased for the three months ended March 31, 2022, reflecting an increase in underlying exposure due to premium growth, partially offset by a reduction of $155.0 million in current year catastrophe losses.
