Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Schedule of segment profit (loss), and segment assets
The tabular information that follows shows the segment revenue, profit or loss, for each of the operating segments for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 and total assets as of September 30, 2013 and December 30, 2012.
Revenue is derived from the main income components of each segment. For Insurance and Insurance Services, the main drivers of revenue are fees on separate account assets, and administration service fees. For Specialty Finance, the main sources of revenue are investment interest, dividend income, and realized and unrealized gains/losses on investment securities. For Asset Management, revenue is derived from management fees based on assets under management and, in some cases, incentive fees based on the profits generated. For Real Estate, revenue includes rental income and investment interest.
Intersegment revenues refers to those items of revenue which will be eliminated upon consolidation. Included in revenue, expense, interest revenue, interest expense, segment profit/(loss), and segment assets are items which are eliminated upon consolidation as well as adjustments for discontinued operations, reclassifications, consolidated CLOS and non-controlling interest. These items are classified as corporate eliminations and other in the tables below. In addition, interest revenue and interest expense are presented as a component of revenue and expense, respectively, in the tables below.
