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 appropriate matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts. Information regarding the three-level fair value 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 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. 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, 2024 and 2023, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. As of March 31, 2024, Level 3 invested assets comprised 9.2% of the Company’s total investment portfolio at fair value.

(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, 2024 and 2023 were related to changes in the primary pricing source and changes in observability of external information used in determining fair value. 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. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had a $0.1 million net investment gain on Level 3 financial assets that was included in net income and was attributable to the change in fair value. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had no net investment losses on Level 3 financial assets. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, a net investment loss of $1.3 million and $0.2 million , respectively, were included in net income that were attributable to changes in the fair value of Level 3 financial liabilities.

(1) Represents embedded derivatives related to fixed indexed annuity and indexed universal life products reported in Future policy benefit reserves and Other policyholder funds as well as net MRBs reported in Policyholders' account balances in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. External pricing sources for securities represent prices from prior transactions or unadjusted third-party pricing information where pricing inputs are not readily available. 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 with Level 3.

|  | Fair Value as of March 31, 2024 |  | Valuation Technique(s) |  | Unobservable Inputs |  | Range (Weighted Average) and Single Point Best Estimate(1) |  | Impact of Increase in Input on Fair Value

Net MRBs |  | $ | (6.3) |  |  | discounted cash flow |  | lapse rate |  | 5.9% |  | decrease
|  |  |  |  |  | mortality multiplier(2) |  | 69.4% |  | increase
(1) When a range of unobservable inputs is not readily available, the Company uses a single point best estimate. (2) Mortality multiplier is applied to the Annuity 2000 table. (3) 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 processes as described in Part II - Item 8, Note 3 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Generally, valuation techniques for corporate bonds include using discounted cash flow techniques where the unobservable input is the yield. The yield used for the valuation of these fixed maturity securities is less observable than securities classified as Level 2. 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 3 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The following table presents the carrying amount and fair value of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities not carried at fair value and the level within the fair value hierarchy at which such financial assets and liabilities are categorized.
