The net loss of $35 million is comprised of a $59 million loss on the fixed maturity securities supporting the funds withheld liability to recognize unrealized losses which had been included in AOCI since the inception of the coinsurance agreement, partially offset by a $24 million gain on the associated embedded derivative. Taken together, this net loss is the final recognition of changes in the valuation of the funds held assets and offsets previously recognized investment gains on the associated embedded derivative. The components of available-for-sale impairment losses (gains) recognized in earnings by asset type are presented in the following table. The table includes losses (gains) on securities with an intention to sell and changes in the allowance for credit losses on securities since acquisition date: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 (In millions) Fixed maturity securities available-for-sale: Corporate and other bonds $ 24 $ 53 $ 5 Asset-backed 1 $ 11 2 11 Impairment losses (gains) recognized in earnings $ 25 $ 11 $ 55 $ 16 There were $8 million of losses on mortgage loans recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to changes in expected credit losses.

When presented in AOCI, these amounts are net of tax and noncontrolling interests and any required Shadow Adjustments. To the extent there are unrealized gains on fixed income securities supporting the reserves of certain products within the Life & Group business that would result in a premium deficiency, or would impact the reserve balance if realized, a related increase in Insurance reserves is recorded as a reduction of net unrealized gains (losses), net of tax and noncontrolling interests, through Other comprehensive income (loss) (“Shadow Adjustments”). As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the net unrealized gains and losses on investments included in AOCI were correspondingly reduced by Shadow Adjustments of $41 million and $2.2 billion (after tax and noncontrolling interests).

In reaching this determination, the recent volatility in risk-free rates and credit spreads, as well as the fact that the unrealized losses are concentrated in investment grade issuers, were considered. Additionally, there is no current intent to sell securities with unrealized losses, nor is it more likely than not that sale will be required prior to recovery of amortized cost; accordingly, it was determined that there are no additional impairment losses to be recorded at September 30, 2022. The following tables present the activity related to the allowance on available-for-sale securities with credit impairments and purchased credit-deteriorated (“PCD”) assets. Accrued interest receivables on available-for-sale fixed maturity securities totaled $401 million, $369 million and $387 million as of September 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021 and are excluded from the estimate of expected credit losses and the amortized cost basis in the tables within this Note.

Securities not due at a single date are allocated based on weighted average life. Mortgage Loans The following table presents the amortized cost basis of mortgage loans for each credit quality indicator by year of origination. The primary credit quality indicators utilized are debt service coverage ratios (“DSCR”) and loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratios. Mortgage Loans Amortized Cost Basis by Origination Year (a) As of September 30, 2022 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 Prior Total (In millions) DSCR ≥1.6x LTV less than 55% $ 9 $ 13 $ 112 $ 29 $ 54 $ 275 $ 492 LTV 55% to 65% — LTV greater than 65% 18 11 29 DSCR 1.2x - 1.6x LTV less than 55% 5 49 18 56 10 42 180 LTV 55% to 65% 87 20 8 115 LTV greater than 65% — DSCR ≤1.2x LTV less than 55% 57 57 LTV 55% to 65% 21 44 65 LTV greater than 65% 10 22 7 39 Total $ 129 $ 94 $ 150 $ 208 $ 64 $ 332 $ 977 (a) The values in the table above reflect DSCR on a standardized amortization period and LTV ratios based on the most recent appraised values trended forward using changes in a commercial real estate price index. Derivative Financial Instruments A summary of the aggregate contractual or notional amounts and gross estimated fair values related to derivative financial instruments follows. The contractual or notional amounts for derivatives are used to calculate the exchange of contractual payments under related agreements and may not be representative of the potential for gain or loss on these instruments. Gross estimated fair values of derivative positions are currently presented in Equity securities, Receivables and Payable to brokers on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

These investments are recorded once funded, and the related commitments may include future capital calls from various third-party limited partnerships, signed and accepted mortgage loan applications and obligations related to private placement securities. As of September 30, 2022, commitments to purchase or fund were approximately $1.6 billion and to sell were approximately $100 million under the terms of these investments. |
