The Insurance segment experienced a favorable claims reserve development of $41.2 million and an unfavorable claims reserve development of $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The reserve sufficiency is being driven by claim terminations and estimates for remaining benefits to be paid. Current experience has been favorable relative to the six months ended June 30, 2018. This favorable development is attributable to the result of normal volatility in claims activity from period to period.
