Segment Reporting, Measurement Disclosures [Abstract] |
Segment Reporting | SEGMENT REPORTING The Company’s reportable segments are defined as follows: (1) Property, which is comprised of catastrophe and other property (re)insurance written on behalf of the Company’s consolidated operating subsidiaries, joint ventures and managed funds, and (2) Casualty and Specialty, which is comprised of casualty and specialty (re)insurance written on behalf of the Company’s consolidated operating subsidiaries, joint ventures and managed funds. In addition to its reportable segments, the Company has an Other category, which primarily includes its investments unit, strategic investments, corporate expenses, capital servicing costs, noncontrolling interests and certain expenses related to acquisitions and dispositions. The Company does not manage its assets by segment; accordingly, net investment income and total assets are not allocated to the segments. A summary of the significant components of the Company’s revenues and expenses by segment is as follows:
