Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block] | 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES A. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS ICC Holdings, Inc. is a Pennsylvania corporation that was organized in 2016. March 2017, We are a specialty insurance carrier primarily underwriting commercial multi-peril, liquor liability, workers’ compensation, and umbrella liability coverages for the food and beverage industry through our subsidiary insurance company, ICC. ICC writes business in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Utah, and Wisconsin and markets through independent agents. Approximately 23.1% and 22.6% of the premium was written in Illinois for the years ended December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 B. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), which differ in some respects from those followed in reports to insurance regulatory authorities. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet, revenues and expenses for the periods then ended, and the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. The most significant of these amounts is the liability for unpaid losses and settlement expenses. Other estimates include investment valuation and current expected credit loss (CECL) allowances, reinsurance recoverables and the collectability of reinsurance balances, recoverability of deferred tax assets, and deferred policy acquisition costs. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Although recorded estimates are supported by actuarial computations and other supportive data, the estimates are ultimately based on expectations of future events. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods. C. INVESTMENTS AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES Debt securities are classified as available-for-sale (AFS) and reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are excluded from net earnings but are recorded as a separate component of comprehensive earnings and shareholders’ equity, net of deferred income taxes. EQUITY SECURITIES Equity securities include common stock, mutual funds, and non-redeemable preferred stock. Equity securities are carried at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in net earnings. CURRENT EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES Effective with the adoption of ASU 2016 13, January 1, 2023, not • the extent to which the fair value is less than cost; • adverse conditions related to the security, an industry, geographic area such as changes in the financial condition of the issuer of the security, changes in the technology, or discontinuation of a segment of the business that may • the payment structure of the debt security and the likelihood of the issuer being able to make future payments; • failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments; and • any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency. In addition, we no January 1, 2023, December 31, 2023 no Quantitative and qualitative criteria are considered to varying degrees depending on the sector in which the analysis is being performed. The sectors are as follows: Corporates The Company performs a qualitative evaluation of holdings that fall below a price threshold and above a spread threshold. The analysis begins with an opinion of industry and competitive position. This includes an assessment of factors that enable the profit structure of the business (e.g., reserve profile for exploration and production companies), competitive advantage (e.g., distribution system), management strategy, and an analysis of trends in return on invested capital. Analysts may Municipals The Company performs a qualitative evaluation of holdings that fall below a price threshold and above a spread threshold. This analysis includes an assessment of the factors that may Structured Securities The "stated assumptions" analytic approach relies on actual 6 third no INVESTMENT INCOME Interest on fixed maturities and short-term investments is credited to earnings on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the lives of the related fixed maturities. Dividends on equity securities are credited to earnings on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on disposition of investments are based on specific identification of the investments sold on the settlement date, which does not D. OTHER INVESTED ASSETS Other invested assets include notes receivable, stock, a limited partnership, a SAFE investment, Funds at Lloyd's, and membership in the FHLBC. Notes receivable are carried at outstanding balance plus accrued interest, which management believes reflects fair value. Stock is at fair value when available. The limited partnership is accounted for under the equity method, which is considered a related party. The SAFE investment and the membership in FHLBC are carried at cost. E. PROPERTY HELD FOR INVESTMENT Property held for investment purposes is initially recorded at the purchase price, which is generally fair value, and is subsequently reported at cost less accumulated depreciation. Buildings are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the building, which we estimate to be 39 years. Income from property held for investment is reported as net investment income. F. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash consists of uninvested balances in bank accounts. Cash equivalents consist of investments with original maturities of 90 not G. REINSURANCE Ceded unearned premiums and reinsurance balances recoverable on paid and unpaid losses and settlement expenses are reported separately as assets instead of being netted with the related liabilities, since reinsurance does not Annually, the Company monitors the financial condition of its reinsurers. The Company’s monitoring efforts include, but are not may H. POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS The Company defers commissions, premium taxes, and certain other costs that are incrementally or directly related to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts. Acquisition-related costs may I. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are presented at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and are depreciated using accelerated methods for financial statement purposes for a period based on their economic life.

UNPAID LOSSES AND SETTLEMENT EXPENSES The liability for unpaid losses and settlement expenses represents estimates of both reported and unreported claims and related expenses. The estimates are based on various actuarial reserving methodologies and other assumptions related to the ultimate cost to settle such claims. The reserving methodologies used are Loss Development for paid and incurred loss and settlement expense, Expected Loss Ratio for ultimate loss and settlement expense, Bornhuetter-Ferguson (B-F) for paid and incurred loss, and A&OE (also known as the "Wendy Johnson Method") for unpaid adjusting and other expense. The assumptions used are subject to occasional changes due to evolving economic, social, and political conditions. There were no December 31, 2023 All estimates are periodically reviewed and, as experience develops and new information becomes known, the reserves are adjusted, as necessary. Such adjustments are reflected in the results of operations in the period in which they are determined.

PREMIUMS Premiums are recognized ratably over the term of the contracts, net of ceded reinsurance. Unearned premiums represent the portion of premiums written relative to the unexpired terms of coverage. Unearned premiums are calculated on a daily pro rata basis. A premium deficiency reserve should be recognized if the sum of expected claim costs and claim adjustment expenses, expected dividends to policyholders, unamortized acquisition costs, and maintenance costs exceed related unearned premiums.

INCOME TAXES The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return. Federal income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method under which deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of "temporary differences" by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities, operating losses, and tax credit carry forwards. The effect on deferred taxes for a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not not The Company considers uncertainties in income taxes and recognizes those in its consolidated financial statements as required. As it relates to uncertainties in income taxes, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalty accruals, are not no 12 ICC is subject to minimal state income tax liabilities. On a state basis, since the majority of income is from insurance operations, the Company pays premium taxes in lieu of state income tax. Premium taxes are a component of policy acquisition costs and calculated as a percentage of gross premiums written. N. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN The Company recognizes employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) compensation expense ratably during each year for the shares committed to be allocated to participants that year. This expense is determined by the fair market value of our stock at the time the commitment to allocate the shares is accrued and recognized. For purposes of balance sheet disclosures of shares outstanding, the Company includes only the number of ESOP shares that have been committed to be released for the period. For purposes of calculating earnings per share, the Company includes the weighted average ESOP shares committed to be released for the period. The ESOP covers all employees who have worked a minimum of 500 O. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock or common stock equivalents were exercised or converted into common stock. When inclusion of these items increases the earnings per share or reduces the loss per share, the effect on earnings is anti-dilutive. Under these circumstances, the diluted net earnings or net loss per share is computed excluding these items. P. COMPREHENSIVE EARNINGS Comprehensive earnings include net earnings plus unrealized gains (losses) on AFS investment securities, net of tax. In reporting the components of comprehensive earnings on a net basis in the consolidated statement of earnings, the Company used a 21% tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2023 2022 2023 2022 The following table presents changes in accumulated other comprehensive earnings for unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale fixed maturity securities: Year Ended December 31, 2023 2022 Beginning balance $ (8,841,517 ) $ 2,920,027 Other comprehensive earnings (loss) before reclassification 2,173,761 (11,770,084 ) Amount reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive earnings 46,420 8,540 Net current period other comprehensive earnings (loss) 2,220,181 (11,761,544 ) Ending balance $ (6,621,336 ) $ (8,841,517 ) Amounts Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss Twelve-Month Periods Ended Details about Accumulated Other December 31, Affected Line Item in the Statement Comprehensive Earnings Component 2023 2022 where Net Earnings is Presented Unrealized losses on AFS investments: $ 58,760 $ 10,810 Net realized investment losses (12,340 ) (2,270 ) Income tax (benefit) Total exclusion, net of tax $ 46,420 $ 8,540 Q.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent to day-to-day operations and to the process of preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The more significant risks and uncertainties, as well as the Company’s attempt to mitigate, quantify, and minimize such risks, are presented below and throughout the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Catastrophe Exposures The Company’s insurance coverages include exposure to catastrophic events. All catastrophe exposures are monitored by quantifying exposed policy limits in each region and by using computer-assisted modeling techniques. Additionally, the Company limits its risk to such catastrophes through restraining the total policy limits written in each region and by purchasing reinsurance. The Company’s major catastrophe exposure is to losses caused by tornado/hail and freeze to commercial properties throughout the Midwest. The Company had protection of $14.0 million in excess of $1.0 million for both the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 January 1, 2024. Reinsurance Reinsurance does not $0 December 31, 2023, 2022 Note 6 Reinsurance Investment Risk The investment portfolio is subject to market, credit, and interest rate risks. The equity portfolio will fluctuate with movements in the overall stock market. While the equity portfolio has been constructed to have lower downside risk than the market, the portfolio is sensitive to movements in the market. The bond portfolio is affected by interest rate changes and movement in credit spreads. The Company attempts to mitigate its interest rate and credit risks by constructing a well-diversified portfolio with high-quality securities with varied maturities. Downturns in the financial markets could have a negative effect on the portfolio. However, the Company attempts to manage this risk through asset allocation, duration, and security selection. Liquidity Risk Liquidity is essential to the Company’s business and a key component of the concept of asset-liability matching. The Company’s liquidity may may may third The Company’s A.M. Best rating is important to its liquidity. A reduction in credit ratings could adversely affect the Company’s liquidity and competitive position by increasing borrowing costs or limiting access to the capital markets. External Factors The Company is highly regulated by the state of Illinois and by the states in which it underwrites business. Such regulations, among other things, limit the amount of dividends, impose restrictions on the amount and types of investments, and regulate rates insurers may T. INTANGIBLES Intangible assets are reported within Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets are presented in the following table. 2023 2022 Inception date Economic Useful Life Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Finite-lived intangible assets: Guild customer/broker relationships and name recognition 10/2/2023 15 years $ 1,005,783 $ 16,763 $ — $ — Katkin customer/supplier relationships, certifications, and system 10/1/2021 3 years 47,500 35,625 47,500 19,792 Total intangible assets $ 1,053,283 $ 52,388 $ 47,500 $ 19,792 The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has developed Property/Casualty Risk-Based Capital (RBC) standards that relate an insurer’s reported statutory surplus to the risks inherent in its overall operations. The RBC formula uses the statutory annual statement to calculate the minimum indicated capital level to support asset (investment and credit) risk and underwriting (loss reserves, premiums written, and unearned premium) risk. The NAIC model law calls for various levels of regulatory action based on the magnitude of an indicated RBC capital deficiency, if any. As of December 31, 2023 Note 10 Statutory Information and Dividend Restrictions In addition, ratings are a critical factor in establishing the competitive position of insurance companies. The Company is rated by A.M. Best. This rating reflects their opinion of the insurance company’s financial strength, operating performance, strategic position, and ability to meet its obligations to policyholders. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | 3. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES Fair value is defined as the price in the principal market that would be received for an asset to facilitate an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. We determined the fair value of certain financial instruments based on their underlying characteristics and relevant transactions in the marketplace. GAAP guidance requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance also describes three may The following are the levels of the fair value hierarchy and a brief description of the type of valuation inputs that are used to establish each level: ● Level 1 ● Level 2 ● Level 3 one As a part of the process to determine fair value, management utilizes widely recognized, third third Corporate, Agencies, and Municipal Bonds two 2. 2.

Reinsurance [Text Block] | 6. REINSURANCE In the ordinary course of business, the Company assumes and cedes premiums and selected insured risks with other insurance companies, known as reinsurance. A large portion of the reinsurance is put into effect under contracts known as treaties and, in some instances, by negotiation on each individual risk (known as facultative reinsurance). In addition, there are several types of treaties including quota share, excess of loss, and catastrophe reinsurance contracts that protect against losses over stipulated amounts arising from any one Through the purchase of reinsurance, the Company also generally limits its net loss on any individual risk to a maximum of $1,000,000 for casualty and workers’ compensation business and $1,000,000 for property, although certain treaties contain an annual aggregate deductible before reinsurance applies.

The recognition of the changes in initial reserve estimates occurred over time as claims were reported, initial case reserves were established, initial reserves were reviewed in light of additional information, and ultimate payments were made on the collective set of claims incurred as of that evaluation date. The new information on the ultimate settlement value of claims is updated until all claims in a defined set are settled. As a small specialty insurer with a niche product portfolio, the Company’s experience will ordinarily exhibit fluctuations from period to period. While management attempts to identify and react to systematic changes in the loss environment, it must also consider the volume of experience directly available to the Company and interpret any particular period’s indications with a realistic technical understanding of the reliability of those observations.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | B. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), which differ in some respects from those followed in reports to insurance regulatory authorities. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet, revenues and expenses for the periods then ended, and the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. The most significant of these amounts is the liability for unpaid losses and settlement expenses. Other estimates include investment valuation and current expected credit loss (CECL) allowances, reinsurance recoverables and the collectability of reinsurance balances, recoverability of deferred tax assets, and deferred policy acquisition costs. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Although recorded estimates are supported by actuarial computations and other supportive data, the estimates are ultimately based on expectations of future events. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods. |
Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | C. INVESTMENTS AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES Debt securities are classified as available-for-sale (AFS) and reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are excluded from net earnings but are recorded as a separate component of comprehensive earnings and shareholders’ equity, net of deferred income taxes. EQUITY SECURITIES Equity securities include common stock, mutual funds, and non-redeemable preferred stock. Equity securities are carried at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in net earnings. CURRENT EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES Effective with the adoption of ASU 2016 13, January 1, 2023, not • the extent to which the fair value is less than cost; • adverse conditions related to the security, an industry, geographic area such as changes in the financial condition of the issuer of the security, changes in the technology, or discontinuation of a segment of the business that may • the payment structure of the debt security and the likelihood of the issuer being able to make future payments; • failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments; and • any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency. In addition, we no January 1, 2023, December 31, 2023 no Quantitative and qualitative criteria are considered to varying degrees depending on the sector in which the analysis is being performed. The sectors are as follows: Corporates The Company performs a qualitative evaluation of holdings that fall below a price threshold and above a spread threshold. The analysis begins with an opinion of industry and competitive position. This includes an assessment of factors that enable the profit structure of the business (e.g., reserve profile for exploration and production companies), competitive advantage (e.g., distribution system), management strategy, and an analysis of trends in return on invested capital.

Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the lives of the related fixed maturities. Dividends on equity securities are credited to earnings on the ex-dividend date.

Other Invested Assets [Policy Text Block] | D. OTHER INVESTED ASSETS Other invested assets include notes receivable, stock, a limited partnership, a SAFE investment, Funds at Lloyd's, and membership in the FHLBC. Notes receivable are carried at outstanding balance plus accrued interest, which management believes reflects fair value. Stock is at fair value when available. The limited partnership is accounted for under the equity method, which is considered a related party. The SAFE investment and the membership in FHLBC are carried at cost. |
Investment, Property Held For Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | E. PROPERTY HELD FOR INVESTMENT Property held for investment purposes is initially recorded at the purchase price, which is generally fair value, and is subsequently reported at cost less accumulated depreciation. Buildings are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the building, which we estimate to be 39 years. Income from property held for investment is reported as net investment income. |

Unpaid Policy Claims and Claims Adjustment Expense, Policy [Policy Text Block] | J. UNPAID LOSSES AND SETTLEMENT EXPENSES The liability for unpaid losses and settlement expenses represents estimates of both reported and unreported claims and related expenses. The estimates are based on various actuarial reserving methodologies and other assumptions related to the ultimate cost to settle such claims. The reserving methodologies used are Loss Development for paid and incurred loss and settlement expense, Expected Loss Ratio for ultimate loss and settlement expense, Bornhuetter-Ferguson (B-F) for paid and incurred loss, and A&OE (also known as the "Wendy Johnson Method") for unpaid adjusting and other expense. The assumptions used are subject to occasional changes due to evolving economic, social, and political conditions. There were no December 31, 2023 All estimates are periodically reviewed and, as experience develops and new information becomes known, the reserves are adjusted, as necessary.

Unearned premiums represent the portion of premiums written relative to the unexpired terms of coverage. Unearned premiums are calculated on a daily pro rata basis. A premium deficiency reserve should be recognized if the sum of expected claim costs and claim adjustment expenses, expected dividends to policyholders, unamortized acquisition costs, and maintenance costs exceed related unearned premiums.

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | M. INCOME TAXES The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return. Federal income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method under which deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of "temporary differences" by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities, operating losses, and tax credit carry forwards. The effect on deferred taxes for a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not not The Company considers uncertainties in income taxes and recognizes those in its consolidated financial statements as required. As it relates to uncertainties in income taxes, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalty accruals, are not no 12 ICC is subject to minimal state income tax liabilities. On a state basis, since the majority of income is from insurance operations, the Company pays premium taxes in lieu of state income tax. Premium taxes are a component of policy acquisition costs and calculated as a percentage of gross premiums written. |
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), Policy [Policy Text Block] | N. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN The Company recognizes employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) compensation expense ratably during each year for the shares committed to be allocated to participants that year. This expense is determined by the fair market value of our stock at the time the commitment to allocate the shares is accrued and recognized. For purposes of balance sheet disclosures of shares outstanding, the Company includes only the number of ESOP shares that have been committed to be released for the period. For purposes of calculating earnings per share, the Company includes the weighted average ESOP shares committed to be released for the period. The ESOP covers all employees who have worked a minimum of 500 |
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | O. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock or common stock equivalents were exercised or converted into common stock. When inclusion of these items increases the earnings per share or reduces the loss per share, the effect on earnings is anti-dilutive. Under these circumstances, the diluted net earnings or net loss per share is computed excluding these items. |
Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block] | P. COMPREHENSIVE EARNINGS Comprehensive earnings include net earnings plus unrealized gains (losses) on AFS investment securities, net of tax. In reporting the components of comprehensive earnings on a net basis in the consolidated statement of earnings, the Company used a 21% tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2023 2022 2023 2022 The following table presents changes in accumulated other comprehensive earnings for unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale fixed maturity securities: Year Ended December 31, 2023 2022 Beginning balance $ (8,841,517 ) $ 2,920,027 Other comprehensive earnings (loss) before reclassification 2,173,761 (11,770,084 ) Amount reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive earnings 46,420 8,540 Net current period other comprehensive earnings (loss) 2,220,181 (11,761,544 ) Ending balance $ (6,621,336 ) $ (8,841,517 ) Amounts Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss Twelve-Month Periods Ended Details about Accumulated Other December 31, Affected Line Item in the Statement Comprehensive Earnings Component 2023 2022 where Net Earnings is Presented Unrealized losses on AFS investments: $ 58,760 $ 10,810 Net realized investment losses (12,340 ) (2,270 ) Income tax (benefit) Total exclusion, net of tax $ 46,420 $ 8,540 |

Risk And Uncertainties [Policy Text Block] | S. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent to day-to-day operations and to the process of preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The more significant risks and uncertainties, as well as the Company’s attempt to mitigate, quantify, and minimize such risks, are presented below and throughout the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Catastrophe Exposures The Company’s insurance coverages include exposure to catastrophic events. All catastrophe exposures are monitored by quantifying exposed policy limits in each region and by using computer-assisted modeling techniques. Additionally, the Company limits its risk to such catastrophes through restraining the total policy limits written in each region and by purchasing reinsurance. The Company’s major catastrophe exposure is to losses caused by tornado/hail and freeze to commercial properties throughout the Midwest. The Company had protection of $14.0 million in excess of $1.0 million for both the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 January 1, 2024. Reinsurance Reinsurance does not $0 December 31, 2023, 2022 Note 6 Reinsurance Investment Risk The investment portfolio is subject to market, credit, and interest rate risks. The equity portfolio will fluctuate with movements in the overall stock market. While the equity portfolio has been constructed to have lower downside risk than the market, the portfolio is sensitive to movements in the market. The bond portfolio is affected by interest rate changes and movement in credit spreads. The Company attempts to mitigate its interest rate and credit risks by constructing a well-diversified portfolio with high-quality securities with varied maturities. Downturns in the financial markets could have a negative effect on the portfolio. However, the Company attempts to manage this risk through asset allocation, duration, and security selection. Liquidity Risk Liquidity is essential to the Company’s business and a key component of the concept of asset-liability matching. The Company’s liquidity may may may third The Company’s A.M. Best rating is important to its liquidity. A reduction in credit ratings could adversely affect the Company’s liquidity and competitive position by increasing borrowing costs or limiting access to the capital markets. External Factors The Company is highly regulated by the state of Illinois and by the states in which it underwrites business. Such regulations, among other things, limit the amount of dividends, impose restrictions on the amount and types of investments, and regulate rates insurers may |
Intangible Assets, Finite-Lived, Policy [Policy Text Block] | T. INTANGIBLES Intangible assets are reported within Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets are presented in the following table. 2023 2022 Inception date Economic Useful Life Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Finite-lived intangible assets: Guild customer/broker relationships and name recognition 10/2/2023 15 years $ 1,005,783 $ 16,763 $ — $ — Katkin customer/supplier relationships, certifications, and system 10/1/2021 3 years 47,500 35,625 47,500 19,792 Total intangible assets $ 1,053,283 $ 52,388 $ 47,500 $ 19,792 The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has developed Property/Casualty Risk-Based Capital (RBC) standards that relate an insurer’s reported statutory surplus to the risks inherent in its overall operations. The RBC formula uses the statutory annual statement to calculate the minimum indicated capital level to support asset (investment and credit) risk and underwriting (loss reserves, premiums written, and unearned premium) risk. The NAIC model law calls for various levels of regulatory action based on the magnitude of an indicated RBC capital deficiency, if any. As of December 31, 2023 Note 10 Statutory Information and Dividend Restrictions In addition, ratings are a critical factor in establishing the competitive position of insurance companies. The Company is rated by A.M. Best. This rating reflects their opinion of the insurance company’s financial strength, operating performance, strategic position, and ability to meet its obligations to policyholders. |
