________________
(1)Net loss and LAE expenses disposed of $1,840.1 million represent the net loss reserves as at May 20, 2022 (“Closing Date”) for losses in relation to 2019 and prior accident years, in addition to the $770.0 million of ceded reserves under the previous ADC agreement, recognizing a total recoverable of $2,610.1 million. These reserves were rolled forward from the initial effective date of September 30, 2021, at which time the net losses reserves were $3,120.0 million.
As at December 31, 2022 the total amount recoverable from Enstar under the LPT was $2,132.0 million (As at December 31, 2021 recoverable from Enstar on the ADC was — $838.1 million) which includes claims paid and reserve development since the Closing Date.
Net loss and LAE expenses disposed in 2020 includes the transfer of reserves under the ADC agreement providing $770.0 million of cover and the loss portfolio transfer transactions for our surety insurance book of $42.0 million and our U.S. accident and health book of $6.5 million.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, there was an increase of $28.1 million in the Company’s estimate of the ultimate claims to be paid in respect of prior accident years compared to an increase of $45.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.
Overall, prior year reserve strengthening totaled $28.1 million in 2022, compared with net unfavorable development of $45.1 million in 2021. Prior year reserve strengthening excludes the full economic benefit of the recoveries from the ADC of $58.3 million which is currently within reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses.
Reinsurance. Net reserve releases of $58.8 million in 2022 were mainly due to releases on prior year development on post-LPT years of $24.6 million and the favorable impact of the LPT of $34.2 million.
Insurance. Net unfavorable reserve development of $86.9 million in 2022 included adverse prior year development on post-LPT years of $37.6 million and the unfavorable movement of $49.3 million due to the impact of the LPT, mainly reflecting the one-off costs in relation to the LPT recognized in 2022 and the change from ADC on a fixed allocation basis to the LPT.
The following tables show an analysis of incurred claims and allocated loss adjustment expenses, net of reinsurance and cumulative paid claims and allocated claim adjustment expenses, net of reinsurance as at December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014 and 2013. Under the LPT agreement, the Company has reinsured net losses incurred on all accident years 2019 and prior. This has resulted in total incurred claims, IBNR and loss adjustment expenses in the loss development triangles for 2019 and prior to be Nil. The loss development triangles are derived from all business written by the Company as although a limited number of contracts are written which have durations of greater than one year the contracts do not meet the definition of a long duration contract. All amounts included in the following tables related to transactions denominated in a foreign currency have been translated into U.S. Dollars using the exchange rates in effect at December 31, 2022.
The Company has chosen to disaggregate the business in its Insurance segment, for the purposes of these loss development triangles as: Property; Casualty; Marine Aviation and Energy; and Financial and Professional insurance lines. The Company considers that this presentation of its Insurance lines loss development triangles more precisely reflects meaningful trending information. The Company presents its loss development triangles for the Reinsurance segment in line with the reportable reinsurance lines: Property Catastrophe and Other Property; Casualty; and Specialty.

These reserves were rolled forward from the initial effective date of September 30, 2021, at which time the net losses reserves were $3,120.0 million.
As at June 30, 2023 the total amount recoverable from Enstar under the LPT was $1,877.3 million (As at December 31, 2022 — $2,132.0 million) which includes claims paid and reserve development since the Closing Date.
