As of September 30, 2023, we had a two-year swap equivalent SOFR futures contract long notional position of $1.1 billion, with a net carrying value of $(25) million. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $171 million and $215 million, respectively, notional value of centrally cleared credit default swaps ("CDS") outstanding that reference the Markit CDX Investment Grade or High Yield Grade Index, maturing in June 2028 and June 2027, respectively. Under the terms of our CDS, we pay fixed periodic payments equal to 1% per annum of the notional value and we are entitled to receive payments for qualified credit events. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the CDS had a market value of $(2) million and $(2) million, respectively, and a net carrying value of zero dollars, net of variation margin settlements. Pursuant to rules governing central clearing activities, we recognize variation margin settlements as a direct reduction of the carrying value of the CDS asset or liability.
