Stockholders' Equity Note Disclosure [Text Block] | Capital Stock Share Repurchase Program On August 14, 2019, Radian Group’s board of directors approved a share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to spend up to $200 million, excluding commissions, to repurchase Radian Group common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, based on market and business conditions, stock price and other factors. Radian operates this program pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, which permits the Company to purchase shares, at pre-determined price targets, when it may otherwise be precluded from doing so. On February 13, 2020, Radian Group’s board of directors authorized a $275 million increase in this program, bringing the total authorization to repurchase shares up to $475 million, excluding commissions, and extended the expiration of this program extension from July 31, 2020 to August 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company purchased 11,036,248 shares at an average price of $20.51, including commissions. As of March 31, 2020, purchase authority of up to $198.9 million remained available under this program. Effective March 19, 2020, the Company suspended its share repurchase program and canceled its current 10b5-1 plan. Radian may initiate a new 10b5-1 plan at its discretion in the future, during an open trading window and in accordance with SEC rules. The expiration date of the current share repurchase authorization remains August 31, 2021. Other Purchases We may purchase shares on the open market to settle stock options exercised by employees and purchases under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In addition, upon the vesting of certain restricted stock awards under our equity compensation plans, we may withhold from such vested awards shares of our common stock to satisfy the tax liability of the award recipients. Dividends and Dividend Equivalents In each of the quarters during 2019 we declared quarterly cash dividends on our common stock equal to $0.0025 per share. On February 13, 2020, Radian Group’s board of directors authorized an increase to the Company’s quarterly cash dividend from $0.0025 to $0.125 per share, beginning with the dividend declared in the first quarter of 2020. In February 2020, the Compensation and Human Capital Management Committee of Radian Group’s board of directors approved the amendment of outstanding performance-based restricted stock unit awards and time-based restricted stock unit awards held by eligible employees (including former employees) and directors of the Company to add certain dividend equivalent rights to such equity awards. Therefore, beginning in the first quarter of 2020, dividend equivalents are accrued on these awards when dividends are declared on the Company’s common stock.
