Receivables [Abstract] |
Restriction on Distribution of Net Assets from Subsidiary | Note 11: Restriction on Distribution of Net Assets from Subsidiary WMMRC has net assets totaling $17.7 million and $33.8 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. These net assets are not immediately available for distribution to WMIH due to restrictions imposed by trust agreements, and the requirement that the Insurance Division of the State of Hawaii must approve dividends from WMMRC. Prior to September 29, 2017, when the Second Lien Notes were fully redeemed by the Company and October 2, 2017 when the Second Lien Indenture was satisfied and discharged, distributions from WMMRC to WMIH were further restricted by the terms of the Runoff Notes and Indentures described in Note 7: Notes Payable. As more fully described in Note 14: Subsequent Events, a distribution from WMMRC to WMIH of up to $10.7 million was approved by the Insurance Division of the State of Hawaii on September 13, 2017.
