Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company is required to disclose estimated fair values for certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. Fair values of the Company’s insurance contracts other than annuity contracts (which are investment contracts) and EMA limited partnership interests are not required to be disclosed. However, the estimated fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in the Company’s overall management of interest rate risk through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts. Information regarding the three-level hierarchy presented below and the valuation methodologies utilized by the Company to estimate fair values at each reporting date is included in Part II - Item 8, Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Financial Instruments Measured and Carried at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following table presents the Company's fair value hierarchy for financial assets and financial liabilities measured and carried at fair value on a recurring basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. At March 31, 2022, Level 3 invested assets comprised 5.9% of the Company’s total investment portfolio at fair value.

(1)Represents embedded derivatives, all related to the Company's fixed indexed annuity products, reported in Other policyholder funds in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. (2)Includes U.S. Government and federally sponsored agency obligations for mortgage-backed securities and other asset-backed securities. (3)Transfers into and out of Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were attributable to changes in the availability of observable market information for individual fixed maturity securities. The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and out of the levels as having occurred at the end of the reporting period in which the transfers were determined. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had net investment losses of $1.0 million and no net investment losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021, that were included in net income and were primarily attributable to credit loss impairments for Level 3 financial assets. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had net investment gains of $5.2 million that were included in net income and were attributable to changes in the fair value of Level 3 financial liabilities; for the three months ended March 31, 2021, the respective net investment losses were $4.3 million. Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements The following table provides quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs for recurring fair value measurements categorized within Level 3.

(1) When a range of unobservable inputs is not readily available, the Company uses a single point best estimate. (2) "N spread" is the interpolated weighted average life point on the swap curve. (3) "T spread" is a specific point on the OTR curve. (4) Mortality multiplier is applied to the Annuity 2000 table. (5) Determined as a percentage of the risk-free rate. The valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement for financial assets and financial liabilities classified as Level 3 are subject to the control processes as described in Part II - Item 8, Note 4 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Generally, valuation techniques for fixed maturity securities include spread pricing, matrix pricing and discounted cash flow methodologies; include inputs such as quoted prices for identical or similar securities that are less liquid; and are based on lower levels of trading activity than securities classified as Level 2. The valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement for equity securities classified as Level 3 use similar valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs as those used for fixed maturity securities. The sensitivity of the estimated fair values to changes in the significant unobservable inputs for fixed maturity and equity securities included in Level 3 include: benchmark yield, liquidity premium, estimated cash flows, prepayment and default speeds, spreads, weighted average life and credit rating. Significant spread widening in isolation will adversely impact the overall valuation, while significant tightening will lead to substantial valuation increases. Significant increases (decreases) in illiquidity premiums in isolation will result in substantially lower (higher) valuations. Significant increases (decreases) in expected default rates in isolation will result in substantially lower (higher) valuations. Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value The Company has various other financial assets and financial liabilities used in the normal course of business that are not carried at fair value, but for which fair value disclosure is required. These financial assets and financial liabilities are further described in Part II - Item 8, Note 4 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The following table presents the carrying amount, fair value and fair value hierarchy of these financial assets and financial liabilities.
