| Measure Name | Underwriting Profit | | |
| Non-GAAP Measure Description [Text Block] | Underwriting profit means the Company’s net premiums earned, less (a) losses and loss adjustment expenses, (b) policy acquisition costs, and (c) other operating expenses, each as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 14, 2023. | | |

| Pay vs Performance Disclosure [Table] | | | |
| Measure Name | Operating Income (1) | | |
| Non-GAAP Measure Description [Text Block] | Operating income is net income excluding realized investment gains and losses, net of tax. Operating income provides a valuable measure of the Company's ongoing performance that may be obscured by the effect of net realized investment gains and losses. Realized investment gains and losses may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by external economic developments such as capital market conditions. Accordingly, operating income highlights the results from ongoing operations and the underlying profitability of the Company's core insurance business. | | |
| Measure [Axis]: 3 | | | |
| Pay vs Performance Disclosure [Table] | | | |
| Measure Name | Combined Ratio (2) | | |

Loss ratio is calculated by dividing losses and loss adjustment expenses by net premiums earned, each as determined in accordance with GAAP. Expense ratio is calculated by dividing the sum of policy acquisition costs and other operating expenses by net premiums earned, each as determined in accordance with GAAP. | | |
