Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation RiverSource Life Insurance Company is a stock life insurance company with two wholly owned subsidiaries, RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York and RiverSource Tax Advantaged Investments, Inc. (“RTA”). RiverSource Life Insurance Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (“Ameriprise Financial”). The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of RiverSource Life Insurance Company and companies in which it directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim financial information in this report has not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim periods have been made. All adjustments made were of a normal recurring nature. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. These Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2015. The Company evaluated events or transactions that may have occurred after the balance sheet date for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. |

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adoption of New Accounting Standards Transfers and Servicing In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated the accounting standards related to transfers and servicing. The update requires repurchase-to-maturity transactions and linked repurchase financings to be accounted for as secured borrowings consistent with the accounting for other repurchase agreements. The standard requires disclosures related to transfers of financial assets accounted for as sales in transactions that are similar to repurchase agreements. The standard also requires disclosures on the remaining contractual maturity of the agreements, disaggregation of the gross obligation by class of collateral pledged and potential risks associated with the agreements and the related collateral pledged in repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, except for the disclosure requirements for repurchase agreements, security lending transactions and repurchase-to-maturity transactions accounted for as secured borrowings which are effective for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. The standard requires entities to present changes in accounting for transactions outstanding at the effective date as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The adoption of the standard did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations. See Note 9 and Note 11 for the required disclosures. Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructuring by Creditors In January 2014, the FASB updated the accounting standard related to recognizing residential real estate obtained through a repossession or foreclosure from a troubled debtor. The update clarifies the criteria for derecognition of the loan receivable and recognition of the real estate property. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and can be applied under a modified retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method. The adoption of the standard did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations. Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures In January 2014, the FASB updated the accounting standard related to investments in qualified affordable housing projects. The update allows for an accounting policy election to account for investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, the investment in a qualified affordable housing project is amortized in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received. The net investment performance is recognized as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company did not elect the proportional amortization method. Future Adoption of New Accounting Standards Fair Value Measurement – Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) In May 2015, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to fair value measurement. The update applies to investments that are measured at net asset value (“NAV”). The standard eliminates the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the NAV per share as a practical expedient. In addition, the update limits disclosures to investments for which the entity elected to measure the fair value using the practical expedient rather than all eligible investments. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The standard should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented and early adoption is permitted. There will be no impact of the standard to the Company’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations. Consolidation In February 2015, the FASB updated the accounting standard for consolidation. The update changes the accounting for the consolidation model for limited partnerships and a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and excludes certain money market funds out of the consolidation analysis. Specific to the consolidation analysis of a VIE, the update clarifies consideration of fees paid to a decision maker and amends the related party guidance. The standard is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The standard may be applied using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity at the beginning of the period of adoption or applied retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial condition and results of operations. Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern In August 2014, the FASB updated the accounting standard related to an entity’s assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern. The standard requires that management evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. In situations where there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosure should be made so that a reader can understand the conditions that raise substantial doubt, management’s assessment of those conditions and any plan management has to mitigate those conditions. The standard is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations. Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB updated the accounting standards for revenue from contracts with customers. The update provides a five step revenue recognition model for all revenue arising from contracts with customers and affects all entities that enter into contracts to provide goods or services to their customers (unless the contracts are in the scope of other standards). The standard also updates the accounting for certain costs associated with obtaining and fulfilling a customer contract. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of quantitative and qualitative information that enables users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is prohibited. The standard may be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or retrospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment at the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial condition and results of operations. |

Variable Interest Entity, Consolidated, Carrying Amount, Assets and Liabilities, Net [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entities [Text Block] | Variable Interest Entities The Company has variable interests in affordable housing partnerships for which it is not the primary beneficiary and therefore does not consolidate. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investments in affordable housing partnerships is limited to the carrying value of these investments. The carrying value is reflected in other investments and was $494 million and $504 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The Company has no obligation to provide financial or other support to the affordable housing partnerships in addition to liabilities already recorded for future funding commitments nor has it provided any additional support to the affordable housing partnerships. The Company invests in structured investments which are considered VIEs for which it is not the sponsor. These structured investments typically invest in fixed income instruments and are managed by third parties and include asset backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities and residential mortgage backed securities. The Company classifies these investments as Available-for-Sale securities. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of these structures due to the size of the Company’s investment in the entities and position in the capital structure of these entities. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investment in these structured investments is limited to its carrying value. The carrying value is included in Available-for-Sale fixed maturities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has no obligation to provide financial or other support to the structured investments beyond its investment nor has the Company provided any support to the structured investments. See Note 4 for additional information about these structured investments. |

Amount includes unrealized gains and losses on impaired securities subsequent to the initial impairment measurement date. These amounts are included in gross unrealized gains and losses as of the end of the period. As of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , investment securities with a fair value of $1.2 billion were pledged to meet contractual obligations under derivative contracts and short-term borrowings. As of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , fixed maturity securities comprised approximately 82% of the Company’s total investments. Rating agency designations are based on the availability of ratings from Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (“NRSROs”), including Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings Ltd. (“Fitch”). The Company uses the median of available ratings from Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, or if fewer than three ratings are available, the lower rating is used. When ratings from Moody’s, S&P and Fitch are unavailable, the Company may utilize ratings from other NRSROs or rate the securities internally. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , approximately $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion , respectively, of securities were internally rated by Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC, an affiliate of the Company, using criteria similar to those used by NRSROs. A summary of fixed maturity securities by rating was as follows: June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 Ratings Amortized Fair Percent of Amortized Fair Percent of (in millions, except percentages) AAA $ 4,850 $ 5,030 22 % $ 5,111 $ 5,374 23 % AA 953 1,104 5 967 1,158 5 A 4,076 4,537 20 4,452 5,062 22 BBB 9,628 10,300 46 9,328 10,165 44 Below investment grade 1,516 1,507 7 1,496 1,484 6 Total fixed maturities $ 21,023 $ 22,478 100 % $ 21,354 $ 23,243 100 % At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , approximately 47% and 46% , respectively, of the securities rated AAA were GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC mortgage backed securities.

Receivables [Abstract] | |
Financing Receivables [Text Block] | Financing Receivables The Company’s financing receivables include commercial and residential mortgage loans, syndicated loans and policy loans. Syndicated loans are reflected in other investments. Allowance for Loan Losses Policy loans do not exceed the cash surrender value of the policy at origination. As there is minimal risk of loss related to policy loans, the Company does not record an allowance for loan losses for policy loans. The Company does not currently have an allowance for loan losses for residential mortgage loans. The following table presents a rollforward of the allowance for loan losses for commercial mortgage loans and syndicated loans for the six months ended and the ending balance of the allowance for loan losses by impairment method: June 30, 2015 2014 (in millions) Beginning balance $ 28 $ 28 Charge-offs (2 ) (2 ) Provisions 1 — Ending balance $ 27 $ 26 Individually evaluated for impairment $ 6 $ 8 Collectively evaluated for impairment 21 18 The recorded investment in commercial and residential mortgage loans and syndicated loans by impairment method was as follows: June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 (in millions) Individually evaluated for impairment $ 33 $ 32 Collectively evaluated for impairment 3,661 3,740 Total $ 3,694 $ 3,772 As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company’s recorded investment in financing receivables individually evaluated for impairment for which there was no related allowance for loan losses was $13 million and $4 million , respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , the Company purchased $24 million and $25 million , respectively, and sold $1 million and $6 million , respectively, of syndicated loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , the Company purchased $36 million and $90 million , respectively, and sold $7 million and $10 million , respectively, consisting primarily of syndicated loans. Credit Quality Information Nonperforming loans, which are generally loans 90 days or more past due, were $8 million and $10 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. All other loans were considered to be performing. Commercial Mortgage Loans The Company reviews the credit worthiness of the borrower and the performance of the underlying properties in order to determine the risk of loss on commercial mortgage loans. Based on this review, the commercial mortgage loans are assigned an internal risk rating, which management updates as necessary. Commercial mortgage loans which management has assigned its highest risk rating were 1% of total commercial mortgage loans at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . Loans with the highest risk rating represent distressed loans which the Company has identified as impaired or expects to become delinquent or enter into foreclosure within the next six months. In addition, the Company reviews the concentrations of credit risk by region and property type. Concentrations of credit risk of commercial mortgage loans by U.S. region were as follows: Loans Percentage June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 (in millions) Pacific $ 712 $ 673 27 % 26 % South Atlantic 707 710 27 27 Mountain 245 236 9 9 West North Central 224 223 9 8 East North Central 207 237 8 9 Middle Atlantic 196 210 7 8 West South Central 145 151 6 6 New England 121 130 5 5 East South Central 59 62 2 2 2,616 2,632 100 % 100 % Less: allowance for loan losses 21 23 Total $ 2,595 $ 2,609 Concentrations of credit risk of commercial mortgage loans by property type were as follows: Loans Percentage June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 (in millions) Retail $ 929 $ 956 35 % 36 % Office 517 535 20 20 Apartments 473 473 18 18 Industrial 442 447 17 17 Mixed use 45 46 2 2 Hotel 37 32 1 1 Other 173 143 7 6 2,616 2,632 100 % 100 % Less: allowance for loan losses 21 23 Total $ 2,595 $ 2,609 Residential Mortgage Loans The recorded investment in residential mortgage loans at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $638 million and $689 million , respectively. The Company considers the credit worthiness of borrowers (FICO score), collateral characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) and geographic concentration to determine when an amount for an allowance for loan losses for residential mortgage loans is appropriate. At a minimum, management updates FICO scores and LTV ratios semiannually. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , no allowance for loan losses was recorded. Residential mortgage loans are presented net of unamortized discount of $27 million and $34 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. As of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , approximately 5% of residential mortgage loans had FICO scores below 640 . As of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , approximately 1% of the Company’s residential mortgage loans had LTV ratios greater than 90% . The Company’s most significant geographic concentration for residential mortgage loans is in California representing 37% of the portfolio as of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . No other state represents more than 10% of the total residential mortgage loan portfolio. Syndicated Loans The recorded investment in syndicated loans at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $440 million and $451 million , respectively. The Company’s syndicated loan portfolio is diversified across industries and issuers. The primary credit indicator for syndicated loans is whether the loans are performing in accordance with the contractual terms of the syndication. Total nonperforming syndicated loans at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $3 million . Troubled Debt Restructurings The recorded investment in restructured loans was not material as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . The troubled debt restructurings did not have a material impact to the Company’s allowance for loan losses or income recognized for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . There are no material commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loans have been restructured. |

Insurance [Abstract] | |
Variable Annuity and Insurance Guarantees | Variable Annuity and Insurance Guarantees The majority of the variable annuity contracts offered by the Company contain guaranteed minimum death benefit (“GMDB”) provisions. The Company also offers variable annuities with death benefit provisions that gross up the amount payable by a certain percentage of contract earnings, which are referred to as gain gross-up (“GGU”) benefits. In addition, the Company offers contracts with GMWB and GMAB provisions. The Company previously offered contracts containing guaranteed minimum income benefit (“GMIB”) provisions. Certain UL policies offered by the Company provide secondary guarantee benefits. The secondary guarantee ensures that, subject to specified conditions, the policy will not terminate and will continue to provide a death benefit even if there is insufficient policy value to cover the monthly deductions and charges. The following table provides information related to variable annuity guarantees for which the Company has established additional liabilities: June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 Variable Annuity Guarantees by Benefit Type (1) Total Contract Net Weighted Average Attained Age Total Contract Net Weighted Average Attained Age (in millions, except age) GMDB: Return of premium $ 56,176 $ 54,345 $ 47 64 $ 55,378 $ 53,565 $ 24 64 Five/six-year reset 10,008 7,462 31 65 10,360 7,821 28 64 One-year ratchet 7,223 6,846 69 67 7,392 7,006 39 66 Five-year ratchet 1,734 1,677 4 63 1,773 1,717 2 63 Other 926 909 45 70 959 941 38 70 Total — GMDB $ 76,067 $ 71,239 $ 196 64 $ 75,862 $ 71,050 $ 131 64 GGU death benefit $ 1,097 $ 1,045 $ 123 67 $ 1,072 $ 1,019 $ 123 67 GMIB $ 310 $ 288 $ 10 67 $ 343 $ 321 $ 9 67 GMWB: GMWB $ 3,478 $ 3,467 $ 1 68 $ 3,671 $ 3,659 $ 1 68 GMWB for life 37,753 37,629 137 66 36,843 36,735 95 65 Total — GMWB $ 41,231 $ 41,096 $ 138 66 $ 40,514 $ 40,394 $ 96 65 GMAB $ 4,246 $ 4,229 $ 5 58 $ 4,247 $ 4,234 $ 2 58 (1) Individual variable annuity contracts may have more than one guarantee and therefore may be included in more than one benefit type. Variable annuity contracts for which the death benefit equals the account value are not shown in this table. The net amount at risk for GMDB, GGU and GMAB guarantees is defined as the current guaranteed benefit amount in excess of the current contract value. The net amount at risk for GMIB and GMWB guarantees is defined as the greater of the present value of the minimum guaranteed withdrawal payments less the current contract value or zero. The present value is calculated using a discount rate that is consistent with assumptions embedded in the Company’s annuity pricing models.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities [Table Text Block] | Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; that is, an exit price. The exit price assumes the asset or liability is not exchanged subject to a forced liquidation or distressed sale. Valuation Hierarchy The Company categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used by the Company’s valuation techniques. A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows: Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date. Level 2 Prices or valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 3 Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. The following tables present the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis: June 30, 2015 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in millions) Assets Available-for-Sale securities: Fixed maturities: Corporate debt securities $ — $ 13,513 $ 1,339 $ 14,852 Residential mortgage backed securities — 3,288 8 3,296 Commercial mortgage backed securities — 2,161 34 2,195 State and municipal obligations — 1,049 — 1,049 Asset backed securities — 690 118 808 Foreign government bonds and obligations — 239 — 239 U.S. government and agencies obligations 4 35 — 39 Total Available-for-Sale securities: Fixed maturities 4 20,975 1,499 22,478 Common stocks 3 4 — 7 Cash equivalents 50 163 — 213 Other assets: Interest rate derivative contracts — 1,574 — 1,574 Equity derivative contracts 226 1,836 — 2,062 Credit derivative contracts — 9 — 9 Foreign exchange derivative contracts — 42 — 42 Other derivative contracts — 15 — 15 Total other assets 226 3,476 — 3,702 Separate account assets — 79,326 — 79,326 Total assets at fair value $ 283 $ 103,944 $ 1,499 $ 105,726 Liabilities Policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims: EIA embedded derivatives $ — $ 6 $ — $ 6 IUL embedded derivatives — — 292 292 GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives — — 235 235 (1) Total policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims — 6 527 533 (2) Other liabilities: Interest rate derivative contracts — 1,021 — 1,021 Equity derivative contracts 307 2,273 — 2,580 Foreign exchange derivative contracts — 5 — 5 Other derivative contracts — 13 — 13 Total other liabilities 307 3,312 — 3,619 Total liabilities at fair value $ 307 $ 3,318 $ 527 $ 4,152 (1) The fair value of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives included $541 million of individual contracts in a liability position and $306 million of individual contracts in an asset position.

The decrease to pretax income of the Company’s adjustment for nonperformance risk on the fair value of its embedded derivatives was $45 million and $6 million , net of DAC, DSIC, unearned revenue amortization and the reinsurance accrual for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The increase (decrease) to pretax income of the Company’s adjustment for nonperformance risk on the fair value of its embedded derivatives was $(8) million and $9 million , net of DAC, DSIC, unearned revenue amortization and the reinsurance accrual for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. Securities transferred from Level 3 primarily represent securities with fair values that are now obtained from a third party pricing service with observable inputs. Securities transferred to Level 3 represent securities with fair values that are now based on a single non-binding broker quote. The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of the quarter in which each transfer occurred. For assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting periods that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. The following tables provide a summary of the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements developed by the Company or reasonably available to the Company of Level 3 assets and liabilities: June 30, 2015 Fair Value Valuation Technique Unobservable Input Range Weighted Average (in millions) Corporate debt securities (private placements) $ 1,324 Discounted cash flow Yield/spread to U.S. Treasuries 1.1 % - 3.5% 1.5% IUL embedded derivatives $ 292 Discounted cash flow Nonperformance risk (1) 67 bps GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives $ 235 Discounted cash flow Utilization of guaranteed withdrawals (2) 0.0 % - 51.1% Surrender rate 0.0 % - 59.1% Market volatility (3) 5.3 % - 21.0% Nonperformance risk (1) 67 bps Elective contractholder strategy allocations (4) 0.0 % - 3.0% December 31, 2014 Fair Value Valuation Technique Unobservable Input Range Weighted Average (in millions) Corporate debt securities (private placements) $ 1,311 Discounted cash flow Yield/spread to U.S. Treasuries 1.0 % - 3.9% 1.5% IUL embedded derivatives $ 242 Discounted cash flow Nonperformance risk (1) 65 bps GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives $ 479 Discounted cash flow Utilization of guaranteed withdrawals (2) 0.0 % - 51.1% Surrender rate 0.0 % - 59.1% Market volatility (3) 5.2 % - 20.9% Nonperformance risk (1) 65 bps Elective contractholder strategy allocations (4) 0.0 % - 3.0% . (1) The nonperformance risk is the spread added to the observable interest rates used in the valuation of the embedded derivatives. (2) The utilization of guaranteed withdrawals represents the percentage of contractholders that will begin withdrawing in any given year. (3) Market volatility is implied volatility of fund of funds and managed volatility funds. (4) The elective allocation represents the percentage of contractholders that are assumed to electively switch their investment allocation to a different allocation model. Level 3 measurements not included in the table above are obtained from non-binding broker quotes where unobservable inputs are not reasonably available to the Company. Sensitivity of Fair Value Measurements to Changes in Unobservable Inputs Significant increases (decreases) in the yield/spread to U.S. Treasuries used in the fair value measurement of Level 3 corporate debt securities in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Significant increases (decreases) in nonperformance risk used in the fair value measurement of the IUL embedded derivatives in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Significant increases (decreases) in utilization and volatility used in the fair value measurement of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) liability value. Significant increases (decreases) in nonperformance risk, surrender rate and elective investment allocation model used in the fair value measurement of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) liability value. Utilization of guaranteed withdrawals and surrender rates vary with the type of rider, the duration of the policy, the age of the contractholder, the distribution system and whether the value of the guaranteed benefit exceeds the contract accumulation value. Determination of Fair Value The Company uses valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The Company’s market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The Company’s income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future projected cash flows to a single discounted present value amount. When applying either approach, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The following is a description of the valuation techniques used to measure fair value and the general classification of these instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy. Assets Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Actively traded money market funds are measured at their NAV and classified as Level 1. The Company’s remaining cash equivalents are classified as Level 2 and measured at amortized cost, which is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short time between the purchase of the instrument and its expected realization. Available-for-Sale Securities When available, the fair value of securities is based on quoted prices in active markets. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are obtained from third party pricing services, non-binding broker quotes, or other model-based valuation techniques. Level 1 securities primarily include U.S. Treasuries. Level 2 securities primarily include corporate bonds, residential mortgage backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities, state and municipal obligations, asset backed securities and U.S. agency and foreign government securities. The fair value of these Level 2 securities is based on a market approach with prices obtained from third party pricing services. Observable inputs used to value these securities can include, but are not limited to, reported trades, benchmark yields, issuer spreads and non-binding broker quotes. Level 3 securities primarily include certain corporate bonds, non-agency residential mortgage backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities and asset backed securities. The fair value of corporate bonds, non-agency residential mortgage backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities and certain asset backed securities classified as Level 3 is typically based on a single non-binding broker quote. The underlying inputs used for some of the non-binding broker quotes are not readily available to the Company. The Company’s privately placed corporate bonds are typically based on a single non-binding broker quote. In addition to the general pricing controls, the Company reviews the broker prices to ensure that the broker quotes are reasonable and, when available, compares prices of privately issued securities to public issues from the same issuer to ensure that the implicit illiquidity premium applied to the privately placed investment is reasonable considering investment characteristics, maturity, and average life of the investment. In consideration of the above, management is responsible for the fair values recorded on the financial statements. Prices received from third party pricing services are subjected to exception reporting that identifies investments with significant daily price movements as well as no movements. The Company reviews the exception reporting and resolves the exceptions through reaffirmation of the price or recording an appropriate fair value estimate. The Company also performs subsequent transaction testing. The Company performs annual due diligence of third party pricing services. The Company’s due diligence procedures include assessing the vendor’s valuation qualifications, control environment, analysis of asset-class specific valuation methodologies, and understanding of sources of market observable assumptions and unobservable assumptions, if any, employed in the valuation methodology. The Company also considers the results of its exception reporting controls and any resulting price challenges that arise. Separate Account Assets The fair value of assets held by separate accounts is determined by the NAV of the funds in which those separate accounts are invested. The NAV represents the exit price for the separate account. Separate account assets are classified as Level 2 as they are traded in principal-to-principal markets with little publicly released pricing information. Other Assets Derivatives that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, such as derivatives that are exchange-traded, are classified as Level 1 measurements. The fair value of derivatives that are traded in less active over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets is generally measured using pricing models with market observable inputs such as interest rates and equity index levels. These measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and include swaps and options. Other derivative contracts consist of the Company's macro hedge program. See Note 12 for further information on the macro hedge program. The counterparties’ nonperformance risk associated with uncollateralized derivative assets was immaterial at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . See Note 11 and Note 12 for further information on the credit risk of derivative instruments and related collateral. Liabilities Policyholder Account Balances, Future Policy Benefits and Claims The Company values the embedded derivatives attributable to the provisions of certain variable annuity riders using internal valuation models. These models calculate fair value by discounting expected cash flows from benefits plus margins for profit, risk and expenses less embedded derivative fees. The projected cash flows used by these models include observable capital market assumptions and incorporate significant unobservable inputs related to contractholder behavior assumptions, implied volatility, and margins for risk, profit and expenses that the Company believes an exit market participant would expect. The fair value also reflects a current estimate of the Company’s nonperformance risk specific to these embedded derivatives. Given the significant unobservable inputs to this valuation, these measurements are classified as Level 3. The embedded derivatives attributable to these provisions are recorded in policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims. The Company uses various Black-Scholes calculations to determine the fair value of the embedded derivatives associated with the provisions of its EIA and IUL products. Significant inputs to the EIA calculation include observable interest rates, volatilities and equity index levels and, therefore, are classified as Level 2. The fair value of the IUL embedded derivatives includes significant observable interest rates, volatilities and equity index levels and the significant unobservable estimate of the Company’s nonperformance risk. Given the significance of the nonperformance risk assumption to the fair value, the IUL embedded derivatives are classified as Level 3. The embedded derivatives attributable to these provisions are recorded in policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims. The Company’s Corporate Actuarial Department calculates the fair value of the embedded derivatives on a monthly basis. During this process, control checks are performed to validate the completeness of the data. Actuarial management approves various components of the valuation along with the final results. The change in the fair value of the embedded derivatives is reviewed monthly with senior management. The Level 3 inputs into the valuation are consistent with the pricing assumptions and updated as experience develops. Significant unobservable inputs that reflect policyholder behavior are reviewed quarterly along with other valuation assumptions. Other Liabilities Derivatives that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, such as derivatives that are exchange-traded, are classified as Level 1 measurements. The fair value of derivatives that are traded in less active OTC markets are generally measured using pricing models with market observable inputs such as interest rates and equity index levels. These measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and include swaps and the majority of options. Other derivative contracts consist of the Company’s macro hedge program. See Note 12 for further information on the macro hedge program. The Company’s nonperformance risk associated with uncollateralized derivative liabilities was immaterial at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . See Note 11 and Note 12 for further information on the credit risk of derivative instruments and related collateral. During the reporting periods, there were no material assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The following tables provide the carrying value and the estimated fair value of financial instruments that are not reported at fair value. All other financial instruments that are reported at fair value have been included above in the tables with balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. June 30, 2015 Carrying Fair Value Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in millions) Financial Assets Mortgage loans, net $ 3,233 $ — $ — $ 3,315 $ 3,315 Policy loans 816 — — 802 802 Other investments 450 — 413 38 451 Financial Liabilities Policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims $ 12,016 $ — $ — $ 12,803 $ 12,803 Short-term borrowings 200 — 200 — 200 Other liabilities 108 — — 104 104 Separate account liabilities 389 — 389 — 389 December 31, 2014 Carrying Fair Value Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in millions) Financial Assets Mortgage loans, net $ 3,298 $ — $ — $ 3,413 $ 3,413 Policy loans 805 — — 793 793 Other investments 463 — 403 55 458 Financial Liabilities Policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims $ 12,979 $ — $ — $ 13,996 $ 13,996 Short-term borrowings 200 — 200 — 200 Other liabilities 124 — — 121 121 Separate account liabilities 400 — 400 — 400 Mortgage Loans, Net The fair value of commercial mortgage loans, except those with significant credit deterioration, is determined by discounting contractual cash flows using discount rates that reflect current pricing for loans with similar remaining maturities, liquidity and characteristics including LTV ratio, occupancy rate, refinance risk, debt service coverage, location, and property condition. For commercial mortgage loans with significant credit deterioration, fair value is determined using the same adjustments as above with an additional adjustment for the Company’s estimate of the amount recoverable on the loan. The fair value of residential mortgage loans is determined by discounting estimated cash flows and incorporating adjustments for prepayment, administration expenses, loss severity and credit loss estimates, with discount rates based on the Company’s estimate of current market conditions. Given the significant unobservable inputs to the valuation of mortgage loans, these measurements are classified as Level 3. Policy Loans Policy loans represent loans made against the cash surrender value of the underlying life insurance or annuity product. These loans and the related interest are usually realized at death of the policyholder or contractholder or at surrender of the contract and are not transferable without the underlying insurance or annuity contract. The fair value of policy loans is determined by estimating expected cash flows discounted at rates based on the U.S. Treasury curve. Policy loans are classified as Level 3 as the discount rate used may be adjusted for the underlying performance of individual policies. Other Investments Other investments primarily consist of syndicated loans and an investment in FHLB. The fair value of syndicated loans is obtained from a third party pricing service or non-binding broker quotes. Syndicated loans that are priced using a market approach with observable inputs are classified as Level 2 and syndicated loans priced using a single non-binding broker quote are classified as Level 3. The fair value of the investment in FHLB is approximated by the carrying value and classified as Level 3 due to restrictions on transfer and lack of liquidity in the primary market for this asset. Policyholder Account Balances, Future Policy Benefits and Claims The fair value of fixed annuities in deferral status is determined by discounting cash flows using a risk neutral discount rate with adjustments for profit margin, expense margin, early policy surrender behavior, a margin for adverse deviation from estimated early policy surrender behavior and the Company’s nonperformance risk specific to these liabilities. The fair value of non-life contingent fixed annuities in payout status, EIA host contracts and the fixed portion of a small number of variable annuity contracts classified as investment contracts is determined in a similar manner. Given the use of significant unobservable inputs to these valuations, the measurements are classified as Level 3. Short-term Borrowings The fair value of short-term borrowings is obtained from a third party pricing service. A nonperformance adjustment is not included as collateral requirements for these borrowings minimize the nonperformance risk. The fair value of short-term borrowings is classified as Level 2. Other Liabilities Other liabilities consist of future funding commitments to affordable housing partnerships. The fair value of these future funding commitments is determined by discounting cash flows. The fair value of these commitments includes an adjustment for the Company’s nonperformance risk and is classified as Level 3 due to the use of the significant unobservable input. Separate Account Liabilities Certain separate account liabilities are classified as investment contracts and are carried at an amount equal to the related separate account assets. The NAV of the related separate account assets represents the exit price for the separate account liabilities. Separate account liabilities are classified as Level 2 as they are traded in principal-to-principal markets with little publicly released pricing information. A nonperformance adjustment is not included as the related separate account assets act as collateral for these liabilities and minimize nonperformance risk. |

Offsetting [Abstract] | |
Offsetting Assets and Liabilities [Text Block] | Offsetting Assets and Liabilities Certain financial instruments and derivative instruments are eligible for offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s derivative instruments and repurchase agreements are subject to master netting arrangements and collateral arrangements and qualify for offset. A master netting arrangement with a counterparty creates a right of offset for amounts due to and from that same counterparty that is enforceable in the event of a default or bankruptcy. The Company’s policy is to recognize amounts subject to master netting arrangements on a gross basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following tables present the gross and net information about the Company’s assets subject to master netting arrangements: June 30, 2015 Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amounts of Assets Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Gross Amounts Not Offset Financial Instruments (1) Cash Collateral Securities Collateral Net Amount (in millions) Derivatives: OTC $ 3,305 $ — $ 3,305 $ (2,747 ) $ (254 ) $ (215 ) $ 89 OTC cleared 321 — 321 (241 ) (80 ) — — Exchange-traded 76 — 76 — — — 76 Total derivatives $ 3,702 $ — $ 3,702 $ (2,988 ) $ (334 ) $ (215 ) $ 165 December 31, 2014 Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amounts of Assets Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Gross Amounts Not Offset Financial Instruments (1) Cash Collateral Securities Collateral Net Amount (in millions) Derivatives: OTC $ 3,612 $ — $ 3,612 $ (2,934 ) $ (228 ) $ (418 ) $ 32 OTC cleared 304 — 304 (222 ) (82 ) — — Exchange-traded 61 — 61 — — — 61 Total derivatives $ 3,977 $ — $ 3,977 $ (3,156 ) $ (310 ) $ (418 ) $ 93 (1) Represents the amount of assets that could be offset by liabilities with the same counterparty under master netting or similar arrangements that management elects not to offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following tables present the gross and net information about the Company’s liabilities subject to master netting arrangements: June 30, 2015 Gross Amounts of Recognized Liabilities Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amounts of Liabilities Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Gross Amounts Not Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Financial Instruments (1) Cash Collateral Securities Collateral Net Amount (in millions) Derivatives: OTC $ 3,378 $ — $ 3,378 $ (2,747 ) $ — $ (631 ) $ — OTC cleared 241 — 241 (241 ) — — — Total derivatives 3,619 — 3,619 (2,988 ) — (631 ) — Repurchase agreements 50 — 50 — — (50 ) — Total $ 3,669 $ — $ 3,669 $ (2,988 ) $ — $ (681 ) $ — December 31, 2014 Gross Amounts of Recognized Liabilities Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amounts of Liabilities Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Gross Amounts Not Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Financial Instruments (1) Cash Collateral Securities Collateral Net Amount (in millions) Derivatives: OTC $ 3,589 $ — $ 3,589 $ (2,934 ) $ — $ (655 ) $ — OTC cleared 222 — 222 (222 ) — — — Total derivatives 3,811 — 3,811 (3,156 ) — (655 ) — Repurchase agreements 50 — 50 — — (50 ) — Total $ 3,861 $ — $ 3,861 $ (3,156 ) $ — $ (705 ) $ — (1) Represents the amount of liabilities that could be offset by assets with the same counterparty under master netting or similar arrangements that management elects not to offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In the tables above, the amounts of assets or liabilities presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are offset first by financial instruments that have the right of offset under master netting or similar arrangements, then any remaining amount is reduced by the amount of cash and securities collateral. The actual collateral may be greater than amounts presented in the tables. When the fair value of collateral accepted by the Company is less than the amount due to the Company, there is a risk of loss if the counterparty fails to perform or provide additional collateral. To mitigate this risk, the Company monitors collateral values regularly and requires additional collateral when necessary. When the value of collateral pledged by the Company declines, it may be required to post additional collateral. The Company’s freestanding derivative instruments are reflected in other assets and other liabilities. Repurchase agreements are reflected in short-term borrowings. See Note 12 for additional disclosures related to the Company’s derivative instruments and Note 9 for additional disclosures related to the Company’s repurchase agreements. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivatives and Hedging Activities [Text Block] | Derivatives and Hedging Activities Derivative instruments enable the Company to manage its exposure to various market risks. The value of such instruments is derived from an underlying variable or multiple variables, including equity and interest rate indices or prices. The Company primarily enters into derivative agreements for risk management purposes related to the Company’s products and operations. The Company’s freestanding derivatives are recorded at fair value and are reflected in other assets or other liabilities. The Company’s freestanding derivative instruments are all subject to master netting arrangements. The Company’s policy on the recognition of derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheets is to not offset fair value amounts recognized for derivatives and collateral arrangements executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting arrangement. See Note 11 for additional information regarding the estimated fair value of the Company’s freestanding derivatives after considering the effect of master netting arrangements and collateral. The Company currently uses derivatives as economic hedges and accounting hedges.

The Company holds derivative instruments that either do not qualify or are not designated for hedge accounting treatment. These derivative instruments are used as economic hedges of equity, interest rate, credit and foreign currency exchange rate risk related to various products and transactions of the Company. Certain annuity contracts contain GMWB or GMAB provisions, which guarantee the right to make limited partial withdrawals each contract year regardless of the volatility inherent in the underlying investments or guarantee a minimum accumulation value of consideration received at the beginning of the contract period, after a specified holding period, respectively. The Company economically hedges the exposure related to non-life contingent GMWB and GMAB provisions primarily using various futures, options, interest rate swaptions, interest rate swaps, total return swaps and variance swaps. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the gross notional amount of derivative contracts for the Company’s GMWB and GMAB provisions was $137.9 billion and $132.0 billion , respectively. The deferred premium associated with certain of the above options is paid or received semi-annually over the life of the option contract or at maturity. The following is a summary of the payments the Company is scheduled to make and receive for these options: Premiums Payable Premiums Receivable (in millions) 2015 (1) $ 185 $ 37 2016 326 75 2017 257 75 2018 196 124 2019 241 85 2020-2026 525 204 Total $ 1,730 $ 600 (1) 2015 amounts represent the amounts payable and receivable for the period from July 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015 . Actual timing and payment amounts may differ due to future contract settlements, modifications or exercises of options prior to the full premium being paid or received. The Company has a macro hedge program to provide protection against the statutory tail scenario risk arising from variable annuity reserves on its statutory surplus and to cover some of the residual risks not covered by other hedging activities. As a means of economically hedging these risks, the Company uses a combination of options, interest rate swaptions and/or swaps. Certain of the macro hedge derivatives used contain settlement provisions linked to both equity returns and interest rates; the remaining are interest rate contracts or equity contracts. The gross notional amount of these derivative contracts was $3.3 billion and $1.2 billion at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. EIA and IUL products have returns tied to the performance of equity markets. As a result of fluctuations in equity markets, the obligation incurred by the Company related to EIA and IUL products will positively or negatively impact earnings over the life of these products. As a means of economically hedging its obligations under the provisions of these products, the Company enters into index options and futures contracts. The gross notional amount of these derivative contracts was $1.2 billion and $953 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Embedded Derivatives Certain annuities contain GMAB and non-life contingent GMWB provisions, which are considered embedded derivatives. In addition, the equity component of the EIA and IUL product obligations are also considered embedded derivatives. These embedded derivatives are bifurcated from their host contracts for valuation purposes and reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. As discussed above, the Company uses derivatives to mitigate the financial statement impact of these embedded derivatives. Cash Flow Hedges The Company has amounts classified in AOCI related to gains and losses associated with the effective portion of previously designated cash flow hedges. The Company reclassifies these amounts into income as the forecasted transactions impact earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company held no derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges. At June 30, 2015 , the Company expects to reclassify $6 million of deferred loss on derivative instruments from AOCI to earnings during the next 12 months that will be recorded in net investment income. These were originally losses on derivative instruments related to interest rate swaptions. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , no hedge relationships were discontinued due to forecasted transactions no longer being expected to occur according to the original hedge strategy. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , amounts recognized in earnings on derivative transactions that were ineffective were not material. The following table presents a rollforward of unrealized derivative losses related to cash flow hedges included in AOCI: 2015 2014 (in millions) Net unrealized derivative losses at January 1 $ (12 ) $ (17 ) Reclassification of realized losses (1) 3 3 Income tax provision (1 ) (1 ) Net unrealized derivative losses at June 30 $ (10 ) $ (15 ) (1) Loss reclassified from AOCI to net investment income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Currently, the longest period of time over which the Company is hedging exposure to the variability in future cash flows is four years and relates to interest credited on forecasted fixed premium product sales. Credit Risk Credit risk associated with the Company’s derivatives is the risk that a derivative counterparty will not perform in accordance with the terms of the applicable derivative contract. To mitigate such risk, the Company has established guidelines and oversight of credit risk through a comprehensive enterprise risk management program that includes members of senior management. Key components of this program are to require preapproval of counterparties and the use of master netting arrangements and collateral arrangements whenever practical. See Note 11 for additional information on the Company’s credit exposure related to derivative assets. Certain of the Company’s derivative contracts contain provisions that adjust the level of collateral the Company is required to post based on the Company’s financial strength rating (or based on the debt rating of the Company’s parent, Ameriprise Financial). Additionally, certain of the Company’s derivative contracts contain provisions that allow the counterparty to terminate the contract if the Company does not maintain a specific financial strength rating or Ameriprise Financial’s debt does not maintain a specific credit rating (generally an investment grade rating). If these termination provisions were to be triggered, the Company’s counterparty could require immediate settlement of any net liability position. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts in a net liability position containing such credit contingent provisions was $418 million and $367 million , respectively. The aggregate fair value of assets posted as collateral for such instruments as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $418 million and $367 million , respectively. If the credit contingent provisions of derivative contracts in a net liability position at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were triggered, the aggregate fair value of additional assets that would be required to be posted as collateral or needed to settle the instruments immediately would have been nil for both periods. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate was 17.9% and 16.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was 18.2% and 13.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The effective tax rates are lower than the statutory rate as a result of tax preferred items including the dividends received deduction and low income housing tax credits. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the prior year period was the result of an $18 million benefit in the first quarter of 2014 related to the completion of an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) audit. Included in the Company’s deferred income tax assets are tax benefits related to state net operating losses of $7 million which will expire beginning December 31, 2015. The Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for any portion of the deferred tax assets that management believes will not be realized. Included in deferred tax assets is a significant deferred tax asset relating to capital losses that have been recognized for financial statement purposes but not yet for tax return purposes as well as future deductible capital losses realized for tax return purposes. Under current U.S. federal income tax law, capital losses generally must be used against capital gain income within five years of the year in which the capital losses are recognized for tax purposes. Significant judgment is required in determining if a valuation allowance should be established, and the amount of such allowance if required. Factors used in making this determination include estimates relating to the performance of the business. Consideration is given to, among other things in making this determination, (i) future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards, (ii) future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, (iii) taxable income in prior carryback years, and (iv) tax planning strategies. Based on analysis of the Company’s tax position, management believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations and implementation of tax planning strategies will not allow the Company to realize certain state deferred tax assets and state net operating losses. The valuation allowance for state deferred tax assets and state net operating losses was $8 million at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . As of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had $160 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits. If recognized, approximately $7 million , net of federal tax benefits, of unrecognized tax benefits at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 would affect the effective tax rate. It is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next 12 months. Based on the current audit position of the Company, it is estimated that the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by $150 million to $160 million in the next 12 months due to resolution of IRS examinations. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the income tax provision. The Company recognized a net increase of $1 million and $2 million in interest and penalties for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively.The Company recognized a net increase of $1 million in interest and penalties for both the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had a payable of $41 million and $40 million , respectively, related to accrued interest and penalties. The Company or one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns as part of its inclusion in the consolidated federal income tax returns of Ameriprise Financial in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. The IRS has completed its field examination of the 1997 through 2011 tax returns. However, for federal income tax purposes, these years, except for 2007, continue to remain open as a consequence of certain unagreed-upon issues. The IRS is currently auditing the Company’s U.S. income tax returns for 2012 and 2013. The Company’s or certain of its subsidiaries’ state income tax returns are currently under examination by various jurisdictions for years ranging from 1997 through 2012 and remain open for all years after 2012. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Guarantees and Contingencies | Guarantees and Contingencies Guarantees The Company is required by law to be a member of the guaranty fund association in every state where it is licensed to do business. In the event of insolvency of one or more unaffiliated insurance companies, the Company could be adversely affected by the requirement to pay assessments to the guaranty fund associations. The Company projects its cost of future guaranty fund assessments based on estimates of insurance company insolvencies provided by the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations (“NOLHGA”) and the amount of its premiums written relative to the industry-wide premium in each state. The Company accrues the estimated cost of future guaranty fund assessments when it is considered probable that an assessment will be imposed, the event obligating the Company to pay the assessment has occurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. The Company has a liability for estimated guaranty fund assessments and a related premium tax asset. At both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the estimated liability was $14 million and the related premium tax asset was $12 million . The expected period over which guaranty fund assessments will be made and the related tax credits recovered is not known. Contingencies Insurance companies have been the subject of increasing regulatory, legislative and judicial scrutiny. Numerous state and federal regulatory agencies have commenced examinations and other inquiries of insurance companies regarding sales and marketing practices (including sales to older consumers and disclosure practices), claims handling, and unclaimed property and escheatment practices and procedures. With regard to an industry-wide investigation of unclaimed property and escheatment practices and procedures, the Company is responding to regulatory audits, market conduct examinations and other inquiries (including a multistate insurance department examination and a market conduct examination by the State of Minnesota). The Company has cooperated and will continue to cooperate with the applicable regulators. The Company is involved in the normal course of business in a number of other legal and arbitration proceedings concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its business activities. The Company believes that it is not a party to, nor are any of its properties the subject of, any pending legal, arbitration or regulatory investigation, examination or proceeding that is likely to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is possible that the outcome of any current or future legal, arbitration or regulatory proceeding could have a material impact on results of operations in any particular reporting period as the proceedings are resolved. Uncertain economic conditions, heightened and sustained volatility in the financial markets and significant financial reform legislation may increase the likelihood that clients and other persons or regulators may present or threaten legal claims or that regulators increase the scope or frequency of examinations of the Company or the insurance industry generally. |
