| Outstanding Exposure | Outstanding Exposure The Company sells credit protection primarily in financial guaranty insurance form. Until 2009, the Company also sold credit protection by issuing policies that guaranteed payment obligations under credit derivatives, primarily credit default swaps (CDS). The Company's contracts accounted for as credit derivatives are generally structured such that the circumstances giving rise to the Company’s obligation to make loss payments are similar to those for its financial guaranty insurance contracts. The Company has not entered into any new CDS in order to sell credit protection in the U.S. since the beginning of 2009, when regulatory guidelines were issued that limited the terms under which such protection could be sold. The capital and margin requirements applicable under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act also contributed to the Company not entering into such new CDS in the U.S. since 2009. The Company has, however, acquired or reinsured portfolios both before and since 2009 that include financial guaranty contracts in credit derivative form. The Company also writes specialty insurance and reinsurance that is consistent with its risk profile and benefits from its underwriting experience. The Company seeks to limit its exposure to losses by underwriting obligations that it views to be investment grade at inception, although on occasion it may underwrite new issuances that it views to be below-investment-grade (BIG), typically as part of its loss mitigation strategy for existing troubled exposures. The Company also seeks to acquire portfolios of insurance from financial guarantors that are no longer writing new business by acquiring such companies, providing reinsurance on a portfolio of insurance or reassuming a portfolio of reinsurance it had previously ceded; in such instances, it evaluates the risk characteristics of the target portfolio, which may include some BIG exposures, as a whole in the context of the proposed transaction. The Company diversifies its insured portfolio across sector and geography and, in the structured finance portfolio, typically requires subordination or collateral to protect it from loss. Reinsurance may be used in order to reduce net exposure to certain insured transactions. Public finance obligations insured by the Company primarily consist of general obligation bonds supported by the taxing powers of U.S. state or municipal governmental authorities, as well as tax-supported bonds, revenue bonds and other obligations supported by covenants from state or municipal governmental authorities or other municipal obligors to impose and collect fees and charges for public services or specific infrastructure projects. The Company includes within public finance obligations those obligations backed by the cash flow from leases or other revenues from projects serving substantial public purposes, including utilities, toll roads, healthcare facilities and government office buildings. The Company also includes within public finance obligations similar obligations issued by territorial and non-U.S. sovereign and sub-sovereign issuers and governmental authorities. Structured finance obligations insured by the Company are generally issued by special purpose entities, including VIEs, and backed by pools of assets having an ascertainable cash flow or market value or other specialized financial obligations. Some of these VIEs are consolidated as described in Note 9, Variable Interest Entities. Unless otherwise specified, the outstanding par and principal and interest (debt service) amounts presented in this note include outstanding exposures on these VIEs whether or not they are consolidated. Debt service is a measure of the estimated maximum potential exposure to insured obligations before considering the Company’s various legal rights to the underlying collateral and other remedies available to it under its financial guaranty contract. The Company also provides specialty insurance and reinsurance on transactions without special purpose entities but with risk profiles similar to those of its structured finance exposures written in financial guaranty form. Surveillance Categories The Company segregates its insured portfolio into investment grade and BIG surveillance categories to facilitate the appropriate allocation of resources to monitoring and loss mitigation efforts and to aid in establishing the appropriate cycle for periodic review of each exposure. BIG exposures include all exposures with internal credit ratings below BBB-. The Company’s internal credit ratings are based on internal assessments of the likelihood of default and loss severity in the event of default. Internal credit ratings are expressed on a ratings scale similar to that used by the rating agencies and generally reflect an approach similar to that employed by the rating agencies, except that the Company's internal credit ratings focus on future performance rather than lifetime performance. The Company classifies those portions of risks benefiting from reimbursement obligations collateralized by eligible assets held in trust in acceptable reimbursement structures as being the higher of 'AA' or their current internal rating. Unless otherwise noted, ratings disclosed herein on the Company's insured portfolio reflect its internal ratings. The Company monitors its insured portfolio and refreshes its internal credit ratings on individual exposures in quarterly, semi-annual or annual cycles based on the Company’s view of the exposure’s credit quality, loss potential, volatility and sector. Ratings on exposures in sectors identified as under the most stress or with the most potential volatility are reviewed every quarter, although the Company may also review a rating in response to developments impacting a credit when a ratings review is not scheduled. For assumed exposures, the Company may use the ceding company’s credit ratings of transactions where it is impractical for it to assign its own rating. Exposures identified as BIG are subjected to further review to determine the probability of a loss. See Note 4, Expected Loss to be Paid (Recovered), for additional information. Surveillance personnel then assign each BIG transaction to the appropriate BIG surveillance category based upon whether a future loss is expected and whether a claim has been paid. The Company uses a tax-equivalent yield to calculate the present value of projected payments and recoveries and determine whether a future loss is expected in order to assign the appropriate BIG surveillance category to a transaction. For financial statement measurement purposes, the Company uses risk-free rates, which are determined each quarter, to calculate the expected loss. More extensive monitoring and intervention are employed for all BIG surveillance categories, with internal credit ratings reviewed quarterly. For purposes of determining the appropriate surveillance category, the Company expects “future losses” on a transaction when the Company believes there is at least a 50% chance that, on a present value basis, it will in the future pay claims on that transaction that will not be fully reimbursed. The three BIG categories are: • BIG Category 1: Below-investment-grade transactions showing sufficient deterioration to make future losses possible, but for which none are currently expected. • BIG Category 2: Below-investment-grade transactions for which future losses are expected but for which no claims (other than liquidity claims, which are claims that the Company expects to be reimbursed within one year) have yet been paid. • BIG Category 3: Below-investment-grade transactions for which future losses are expected and on which claims (other than liquidity claims) have been paid. Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic The coronavirus disease known as COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in early 2020 and continues to spread throughout the world. Several vaccines have been developed and approved by governments, and distribution of vaccines is proceeding unevenly across the globe. The emergence of COVID-19 and reactions to it, including various closures and capacity and travel restrictions, have had a profound effect on the global economy and financial markets. While the COVID-19 pandemic has been impacting the global economy and the Company for over a year now, its ultimate size, depth, course and duration, and the effectiveness, acceptance and distribution of vaccines for it, remain unknown, and the governmental and private responses to the pandemic continue to evolve. Consequently, and due to the nature of the Company's business, all of the direct and indirect consequences of COVID-19 on the Company are not yet fully known to the Company, and still may not emerge for some time. For information about how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the Company's loss projections, see Note 4, Expected Loss to be Paid (Recovered). From shortly after the pandemic reached the U.S. through early 2021 the Company's surveillance department conducted supplemental periodic surveillance procedures to monitor the impact on its insured portfolio of COVID-19 and governmental and private responses to COVID-19, with emphasis on state and local governments and entities that were already experiencing significant budget deficits and pension funding and revenue shortfalls, as well as obligations supported by revenue streams most impacted by various closures and capacity and travel restrictions or an economic downturn. Given significant federal funding in 2021 and the performance it observed, the Company's surveillance department has reduced these supplemental procedures, but is still monitoring those sectors it identified as most at risk for any developments related to COVID-19 that may impact the ability of issuers to make upcoming debt service payments. The Company's internal ratings and loss projections reflect its supplemental COVID-19 surveillance activity. Through August 5, 2021, the Company has paid only relatively small first-time insurance claims it believes are due at least in part to credit stress arising specifically from COVID-19. The Company currently projects nearly full reimbursement of these relatively small claims. Financial Guaranty Exposure The Company measures its financial guaranty exposure in terms of (a) gross and net par outstanding and (b) gross and net debt service. The Company typically guarantees the payment of debt service when due. Since most of these payments are due in the future, the Company generally uses gross and net par outstanding as a proxy for its financial guaranty exposure. Gross par outstanding generally represents the principal amount of the insured obligation at a point in time. Net par outstanding equals gross par outstanding net of any reinsurance. The Company includes in its par outstanding calculation the impact of any consumer price index inflator to the reporting date as well as, in the case of accreting (zero-coupon) obligations, accretion to the reporting date. The Company purchases securities that it has insured, and for which it has expected losses to be paid, in order to mitigate the economic effect of insured losses (loss mitigation securities). The Company excludes amounts attributable to loss mitigation securities from par and debt service outstanding, and instead includes such amounts in the investment portfolio, because the Company manages such securities as investments and not insurance exposure. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company excluded from net par $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively, attributable to loss mitigation securities. Gross debt service outstanding represents the sum of all estimated future debt service payments on the insured obligations, on an undiscounted basis. Net debt service outstanding equals gross debt service outstanding net of any reinsurance. Future debt service payments include the impact of any consumer price index inflator after the reporting date, as well as, in the case of accreting (zero-coupon) obligations, accretion after the reporting date. The Company calculates its debt service outstanding as follows: • for insured obligations that are not supported by homogeneous pools of assets (which category includes most of the Company's public finance transactions), as the total estimated contractual future debt service due through maturity, regardless of whether the obligations may be called and regardless of whether, in the case of obligations where principal payments are due when an underlying asset makes a principal payment, the Company believes the obligations will be repaid prior to contractual maturity; and • for insured obligations that are supported by homogeneous pools of assets that are contractually permitted to prepay principal (which category includes, for example, residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) and CLOs), as the total estimated expected future debt service due on insured obligations through their respective expected terms, which includes the Company's expectations as to whether the obligations may be called and, in the case of obligations where principal payments are due when an underlying asset makes a principal payment, when the Company expects principal payments to be made prior to contractual maturity. The calculation of debt service requires the use of estimates, which the Company updates periodically, including estimates for the expected remaining term of insured obligations supported by homogeneous pools of assets, updated interest rates for floating and variable rate insured obligations, behavior of consumer price indices for obligations with consumer price index inflators, foreign exchange rates and other assumptions based on the characteristics of each insured obligation. The anticipated sunset of LIBOR after June, 30, 2023 has introduced another variable into the Company's calculation of future debt service. Debt service is a measure of the estimated maximum potential exposure to insured obligations before considering the Company’s various legal rights to the underlying collateral and other remedies available to it under its financial guaranty contract. Actual debt service may differ from estimated debt service due to refundings, terminations, negotiated restructurings, prepayments, changes in interest rates on variable rate insured obligations, consumer price index behavior differing from that projected, changes in foreign exchange rates on non-U.S. dollar denominated insured obligations and other factors.

Exposure to Puerto Rico The Company had insured exposure to general obligation bonds of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico or the Commonwealth) and various obligations of its related authorities and public corporations aggregating $3.7 billion net par as of June 30, 2021, all of which was rated BIG. Beginning on January 1, 2016, a number of Puerto Rico exposures have defaulted on bond payments, and the Company has now paid claims on all of its outstanding Puerto Rico exposures except the Municipal Finance Agency (MFA), the Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority (PRASA), and the University of Puerto Rico (U of PR). On June 30, 2016, the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (PROMESA) was signed into law. PROMESA established a seven-member financial oversight and management board (FOMB) with authority to require that balanced budgets and fiscal plans be adopted and implemented by Puerto Rico. Title III of PROMESA provides for a process analogous to a voluntary bankruptcy process under chapter 9 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (Bankruptcy Code). On February 22, 2021, AGM and AGC entered into a revised Puerto Rico General Obligation (GO) and Public Buildings Authority (PBA) plan support agreement (PSA) (GO/PBA PSA) with certain other stakeholders, the Commonwealth, and the FOMB. Then, on May 5, 2021, AGM and AGC entered into a PSA (HTA/CCDA PSA) with certain other stakeholders, the Commonwealth, and the FOMB with respect to the Puerto Rico Highways and Transportation Authority (PRHTA) and the Puerto Rico Convention Center District Authority (PRCCDA). More recently, on July 28, 2021, AGC joined the PSA (PRIFA PSA) signed on July 27, 2021 by certain other stakeholders, the Commonwealth, and the FOMB with respect to the Puerto Rico Infrastructure Financing Authority (PRIFA). Previously, on May 3, 2019, AGM and AGC entered into a restructuring support agreement (PREPA RSA; together with the GO/PBA PSA, HTA/CCDA PSA, and PRIFA PSA, the Support Agreements) with the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA) and other stakeholders, including a group of uninsured PREPA bondholders, the Commonwealth and FOMB, that is intended to, among other things, provide a framework for the consensual resolution of the treatment of the Company’s insured PREPA revenue bonds. With AGM and AGC agreeing to the HTA/CCDA PSA, GO/PBA PSA, and PRIFA PSA, $3,500 million, or 94% of the Company’s insured net par outstanding of Puerto Rico exposures, is covered by a Support Agreement. Each Support Agreement includes a number of conditions and the related debtor’s plan of adjustment must be approved by the Title III court, so there can be no assurance that the consensual resolutions embodied in the Support Agreements will be achieved in their current form, or at all. Even if the consensual resolutions embodied in the Support Agreements are approved and documented as contemplated, they may be subject to further legal challenge or the parties to the legal documents may not live up to their obligations. Both economic and political developments, including those related to the COVID-19 pandemic, may impact implementation of the consensual resolutions contemplated by the Support Agreements and the amount the Company realizes under the Support Agreements and related debtors’ plans of adjustment, as well as the performance or resolution of the Puerto Rico exposures not subject to a Support Agreement. The impact of developments relating to Puerto Rico during any quarter or year could be material to the Company's results of operations and shareholders' equity. Support Agreements GO/PBA PSA. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $1,246 million of insured net par outstanding that is now covered by the GO/PBA PSA: $1,112 million insured net par outstanding of GOs and $134 million insured net par outstanding of PBA bonds. The GO bonds are supported by the good faith, credit and taxing power of the Commonwealth, while the PBA bonds are supported by a pledge of the rents due under leases of government facilities to departments, agencies, instrumentalities and municipalities of the Commonwealth, and that benefit from a Commonwealth guaranty supported by a pledge of the Commonwealth’s good faith, credit and taxing power. The Commonwealth and the PBA defaulted on their debt service payments due on July 1, 2016, and the Company has been making claim payments on these bonds since that date. The FOMB has filed a petition under Title III of PROMESA with respect to both the Commonwealth and the PBA. On February 22, 2021, the FOMB entered into the GO/PBA PSA with certain GO and PBA bondholders and insurers (including AGM and AGC) representing approximately $11.7 billion, or approximately 62% of the aggregate amount of general obligation and PBA bond claims. In general, the GO/PBA PSA provides for lower Commonwealth debt service payments per annum and provides for the distribution to creditors of new recovery bonds, cash, and additional consideration in the form of a contingent value instrument (CVI). This CVI is intended to provide creditors with additional returns tied to outperformance of the Puerto Rico 5.5% Sales and Use Tax receipts against May 2020 certified fiscal plan projections, subject to annual and lifetime caps. The GO/PBA PSA provides for different recoveries based on the bonds’ vintage issuance date, with GO and PBA bonds issued before 2011 (Vintage) receiving higher recoveries than GO and PBA bonds issued in 2011 and thereafter (except that, for purposes of the GO PSA, Series 2011A GO bonds would be treated as Vintage bonds). On July 27, 2021, the FOMB filed with the Title III court a Sixth Amended Title III Joint Plan of Adjustment of the Commonwealth (Amended POA) that seeks to restructure approximately $35 billion of debt (including the GO bonds) and other claims against the government of Puerto Rico and certain entities and $50 billion in pension obligations consistent with the terms of the settlements embodied in the GO/PBA PSA and the HTA/CCDA PSA. On July 29, 2021, the Title III court approved the form of disclosure statement for the Amended POA. The Title III court has indicated that voting on the Amended POA will occur by early October 2021 and that a confirmation hearing on the Amended POA will occur in early November 2021. HTA/CCDA PSA. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $1,462 million of insured net par outstanding that is now covered by the HTA/CCDA PSA: $817 million insured net par outstanding of PRHTA (transportation revenue) bonds; $493 million insured net par outstanding of PRHTA (highway revenue) bonds; and $152 million insured net par outstanding of PRCCDA bonds. The transportation revenue bonds are secured by a subordinate gross lien on gasoline and gas oil and diesel oil taxes, motor vehicle license fees and certain tolls, plus a first lien on up to $120 million annually of taxes on crude oil, unfinished oil and derivative products. The highway revenue bonds are secured by a gross lien on gasoline and gas oil and diesel oil taxes, motor vehicle license fees and certain tolls. The PRCCDA bonds are secured by certain hotel tax revenues. The PRHTA defaulted on the full July 1, 2017 insured debt service payment, and the Company has been making claim payments on these bonds since that date. The FOMB has filed a petition under Title III of PROMESA with respect to PRHTA. The PRCCDA defaulted on a portion of its July 1, 2017 debt service payments, and the Company has been making claim payments on these bonds since that date. The HTA/CCDA PSA provides for payments to AGM and AGC consisting of (i) cash, (ii) in the case of PRHTA, new bonds expected to be backed by toll revenue (Toll Bonds); and (iii) a CVI. Under the HTA/CCDA PSA, bondholders and bond insurers of PRHTA will receive, in the aggregate, $389 million of cash; $1,245 million in Toll Bonds; and the CVI. Under the HTA/CCDA PSA, bondholders and bond insurers of PRCCDA will receive, in the aggregate, $112 million in cash and the CVI. On May 27, 2021 the FOMB certified a revised fiscal plan for PRHTA. The revised certified PRHTA fiscal plan will need to be further revised to be consistent with the HTA/CCDA PSA. PREPA RSA. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $776 million insured net par outstanding of PREPA obligations subject to the PREPA RSA. The PREPA obligations are secured by a lien on the revenues of the electric system. The Company has been making claim payments on these bonds since July 1, 2017. On July 2, 2017, the FOMB commenced proceedings for PREPA under Title III of PROMESA. The PREPA RSA contemplates the exchange of PREPA’s existing revenue bonds for new securitization bonds issued by a special purpose corporation and secured by a segregated transition charge assessed on electricity bills. Under the PREPA RSA, the Company has the option to guarantee its allocated share of the securitization exchange bonds, which may then be offered and sold in the capital markets. The Company believes that the additive value created by attaching its guarantee to the securitization exchange bonds would materially improve its overall recovery under the transaction, as well as generate new insurance premiums; and therefore that its economic results could differ from those reflected in the PREPA RSA. On May 27, 2021, the FOMB certified a revised fiscal plan for PREPA. The revised certified PREPA fiscal plan will need to be further revised to be consistent with the PREPA RSA. PRIFA PSA. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $16 million insured net par outstanding of PRIFA bonds, which are secured primarily by the return to PRIFA and its bondholders of a portion of federal excise taxes paid on rum. The Company has been making claim payments on the PRIFA bonds since January 2016. The PRIFA PSA provides for payments to AGC consisting of (i) cash, (ii) CVI, and (iii) a contingent value instrument based on potential outperformance of Puerto Rico’s general fund rum tax collections relative to projections in the 2021 certified fiscal plan (Rum Tax CVI). Under the PRIFA PSA, bondholders and bond insurers of PRIFA will receive, in the aggregate, $204 million in cash, the CVI, and the Rum Tax CVI. Other Puerto Rico Exposures MFA. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $223 million net par outstanding of bonds issued by MFA secured by a lien on local property tax revenues. The MFA bond accounts contained sufficient funds to make the MFA bond payments due through the date of this filing that were guaranteed by the Company, and those payments were made in full. U of PR. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $1 million insured net par outstanding of U of PR bonds, which are general obligations of the university and are secured by a subordinate lien on the proceeds, profits and other income of the university, subject to a senior pledge and lien for the benefit of outstanding university system revenue bonds. As of the date of this filing, all debt service payments on U of PR bonds insured by the Company have been made. PRASA. In the fourth quarter of 2020, $372 million of PRASA obligations insured by the Company were refunded, reducing the Company's exposure to such bonds. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $1 million of insured net par outstanding of PRASA obligations. The Company's insured PRASA obligations are secured by a lien on the gross revenues of the water and sewer system. As of the date of this filing, all debt service payments on PRASA bonds insured by the Company have been made. Puerto Rico Litigation The Company has disagreed with a number of the actions taken by the Commonwealth, the FOMB and others with respect to obligations the Company insures, and has taken legal action, and may take additional legal action in the future, to enforce its rights with respect to these matters. In addition, the Commonwealth, the FOMB and others have taken legal action naming the Company as party. Currently, there are numerous legal actions relating to the default by the Commonwealth and certain of its entities on debt service payments, and related matters, and the Company is a party to a number of them. On July 24, 2019, Judge Laura Taylor Swain of the United States District Court for the District of Puerto Rico (Federal District Court for Puerto Rico) held an omnibus hearing on litigation matters relating to the Commonwealth. At that hearing, she imposed a stay through November 30, 2019 on a series of adversary proceedings and contested matters amongst the stakeholders and imposed mandatory mediation on all parties through that date. On October 28, 2019, Judge Swain extended the stay until December 31, 2019, and has since stayed the proceedings pending the Court's determination on the Commonwealth's plan of adjustment. The Company expects that the issues that remain relevant that were raised in several of the stayed proceedings commenced by the Company or the FOMB, either prior to or following the filing of petitions under Title III of PROMESA, will be addressed either in other subsequently filed adversary proceedings described below or in the proceedings to confirm the plans of adjustment for the Commonwealth, PRHTA or other instrumentalities of the Commonwealth. Issues that the Company believes remain relevant from these earlier proceedings include (i) whether the clawback of certain excise taxes and revenues pledged to secure payment of bonds issued by PRHTA, PRCCDA and PRIFA should be invalidated, (ii) whether administrative rent claims of the PBA against the Commonwealth should be disallowed, (iii) whether certain later vintage Commonwealth general obligation bonds should be invalidated as having been issued in violation of the Puerto Rico constitutional debt limit, (iv) whether Commonwealth general obligation bonds are secured by consensual or statutory liens, and (v) the validity, enforceability and extent of security interests in PRHTA revenues securing PRHTA bonds. One of the stayed proceedings concerns a PREPA RSA entered in 2015 that is no longer relevant in light of the |
