The Company writes business with loss experience generally characterized as low frequency and high severity in nature, which can result in volatility in its financial results. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized catastrophe and weather-related losses, net of reinstatement premiums, of $70 million (2022: $127 million). Estimates for Significant Catastrophe Events At June 30, 2023, net reserves for losses and loss expenses included estimated amounts for numerous catastrophe events. The magnitude and complexity of losses arising from certain of these events inherently increase the level of uncertainty and, therefore, the level of management judgment involved in arriving at estimated net reserves for losses and loss expenses. These events include New Zealand floods and Cyclone Gabrielle in 2023, Hurricane Ian, Winter Storm Elliot, June European Convective Storms, the Russia-Ukraine war and COVID-19 in 2022, Hurricane Ida, U.S. Winter Storms Uri and Viola and July European Floods in 2021, and the COVID-19 pandemic, Hurricanes Laura, Sally, Zeta and Delta, the Midwest derecho and wildfires across the West Coast of the United States in 2020. As a result, actual losses for these events may ultimately differ materially from current estimates. Prior Year Reserve Development The Company's net favorable prior year reserve development arises from changes to estimates of losses and loss expenses related to loss events that occurred in previous calendar years. The following table presents net prior year reserve development by segment:
|  | Three months ended June 30, |  | Six months ended June 30,
|  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |
|  | Favorable (Adverse) |  | Favorable (Adverse) |  | Favorable (Adverse) |  | Favorable (Adverse) |
| Insurance | $ | 2,784 |  |  | $ | 2,773 |  |  | $ | 3,825 |  |  | $ | 9,838 |  |
| Reinsurance | 3,535 |  |  | 1,167 |  |  | 6,532 |  |  | 3,059 |  |
| Total | $ | 6,319 |  |  | $ | 3,940 |  |  | $ | 10,357 |  |  | $ | 12,897 |  |
