Reinsurance Disclosures [Abstract]  
Reinsurance )    REINSURANCEOur reinsurance program is designed, utilizing our risk management methodology, to address our exposure to catastrophes. Our program provides reinsurance protection for catastrophes, including hurricanes and tropical storms. These reinsurance agreements are part of our catastrophe management strategy, which is intended to provide our stockholders an acceptable return on the risks assumed in our property business, and to reduce variability of earnings, while providing protection to our policyholders. Although reinsurance agreements contractually obligate our reinsurers to reimburse us for the agreed-upon portion of our gross paid losses, they do not discharge our primary liability.
Our program includes excess of loss and quota share treaties. Our AmCoastal catastrophe reinsurance program, in effect from June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2024, provides coverage for catastrophe losses from named or numbered windstorms and earthquakes up to an exhaustion point of approximately $1,300,000,000 in the aggregate. Under our core catastrophe excess of loss treaty, retention on a first and second event is $10,000,000 each. The exhaustion point of IIC's catastrophe reinsurance program is approximately $82,000,000 in the aggregate, with a retention of $3,000,000 per occurrence, covering all perils.

During the third quarter of 2022, the Company's core catastrophe reinsurance program was impacted by Hurricane Ian. As a result, the Company has approximately $508 million of occurrence limit remaining for Hurricane Ian all of which is attributable to AmCoastal only. After reinstatement premiums of approximately $15.4 million, the Company, with its former subsidiary UPC has approximately $980 million of aggregate limit remaining after Hurricane Ian, based on our estimated ultimate net loss subject to the core catastrophe reinsurance program.

Effective January 1, 2023, we renewed our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement. The agreement provides protection from catastrophe loss events other than named windstorms and earthquakes up to $101,000,000.

During the third quarter of 2022, one of our private reinsurers who held a 100% share of the $15,000,000 in excess of $15,000,000 layer on our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement notified us of their intent to terminate the agreement due to the contractual provision regarding the change in our former subsidiary UPC's statutory surplus being greater than 25%. We agreed to a termination and commutation date of August 22, 2022 for this contract. This change resulted in approximately $1,300,000 of ceded premium savings that would have otherwise been due in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the Company retaining all the risk for any non-hurricane catastrophe losses up to $30,000,000, excluding any quota share recoveries.

The table below outlines our quota share agreements in effect for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The impacts of these quota share agreements on our former subsidiary, UPC's financial statements are included in discontinued operations.
