Of these securities in an unrealized loss position, there were 8 securities in our portfolio that have been in an unrealized loss position for twelve months or greater with a fair value of $32,916 and unrealized losses of $3,405. Other-than-temporarily impaired ("OTTI") The Company performs quarterly reviews of its fixed maturities in order to determine whether declines in fair value below the amortized cost basis were considered other-than-temporary in accordance with applicable guidance. At September 30, 2022, we determined that unrealized losses on fixed maturities were primarily due to changes in interest rates as well as the impact of foreign exchange rate changes on certain foreign currency denominated fixed maturities since their date of purchase. All fixed maturity securities continue to pay the expected coupon payments under the contractual terms of the securities. Any credit-related impairment related to fixed maturity securities that the Company does not intend to sell or is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell before its anticipated recovery of their amortized cost basis is recognized in net income, with the non-credit related impairment recognized in comprehensive income. Based on the Company's analysis, our fixed maturity portfolio is of high credit quality and we believe the amortized cost basis of the securities will ultimately be recovered. The Company continually monitors the credit quality of the fixed maturity investments to assess if it is probable that it will receive contractual or estimated cash flows in the form of principal and interest. There was no impairment recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. 4.

These restrictions may include lock-ups, redemption gates, restricted share classes, restrictions on the frequency of redemption and notice periods. A gate is the ability to deny or delay a redemption request. Certain other investments and equity method investments may not have any restrictions governing their sale, but there is no active market and no guarantee that we will be able to execute a sale in a timely manner. In addition, even if certain other investments and equity method investments are not eligible for redemption or sales are restricted, the Company may still receive income distributions from those investments.

The Company's publicly traded equity investments in common stocks trade on major exchanges. The Company's privately held equity investments in common and preferred stocks are direct investments in companies that the Company believes offer attractive risk adjusted returns or offer other strategic advantages.

The Company does not have the power to direct the activities that are most significant to the economic performance of these VIEs, therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. T he Company is deemed to have limited influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee and accordingly, these investments are reported under the equity method of accounting. In applying the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s proportionate share of the investee's net income or loss. Generally, the maximum exposure to loss on these interests is limited to the amount of commitment made by the Company as more fully described in "Note 11 - Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees" in these condensed consolidated financial statements. c) Net Investment Income Net investment income was derived from the following sources for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021: For the Three Months Ended September 30, For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Fixed maturities $ 2,259 $ 4,449 $ 7,074 $ 15,535 Income on funds withheld 2,616 2,708 8,753 7,928 Interest income from loan to related party 1,771 885 3,808 2,611 Cash and cash equivalents and other investments 930 377 2,292 613 7,576 8,419 21,927 26,687 Investment expenses (939) (942) (1,056) (2,091) Net investment income $ 6,637 $ 7,477 $ 20,871 $ 24,596 d) Net Realized and Unrealized Investment Gains (Losses) Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are determined on the basis of the first in first out cost method.
