Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation	Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with these notes and those included in the Company's 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K incorporated herein by reference. Pertinent accounting and disclosure pronouncements issued from time to time by the FASB are adopted by the Company as they become effective. In 2016, the Company adopted FASB guidance requiring additional disclosures about short-duration insurance contracts which provide additional information about insurance liabilities including the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of future cash flows related to those liabilities. The related interim disclosure requirements outlined in the guidance have been included in the pertinent note herein. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted new FASB guidance on accounting for share-based payment award transactions. The Company's adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued a comprehensive revenue recognition standard which will be effective in 2018 and applies to all entities that have contracts with customers, except for those that fall within the scope of other standards, such as insurance contracts. In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance on the recognition and measurement of financial instruments which will be effective in 2018. Among other changes, the standard will require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of income. In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance on lease accounting which will be effective in 2019 and requires balance sheet recognition of all leases with a term of greater than 12 months. Most recently, in June 2016, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for credit losses on financial instruments which will be effective in 2020. The guidance will require immediate recognition of expected credit losses for certain financial instruments and also modifies the impairment model for available for sale debt securities. The Company is currently evaluating the foregoing guidance to determine the potential impact of its adoption on its consolidated financial statements. The financial accounting and reporting process relies on estimates and on the exercise of judgment. In the opinion of management all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the results have been recorded for the interim periods. Amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements and applicable notes are stated (except as otherwise indicated and as to share data) in millions, which amounts may not add to totals shown due to truncation. Necessary reclassifications are made in prior periods' financial statements whenever appropriate to conform to the most current presentation.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Common Share Data	Common Share Data: Earnings Per Share - Consolidated basic earnings per share excludes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares actually outstanding for the quarterly and year-to-date periods. Diluted earnings per share are similarly calculated with the inclusion of dilutive common stock equivalents. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income and the number of shares used in basic and diluted earnings per share calculations. Quarters Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Numerator: Net income $ 113.1 $ 122.9 Numerator for basic earnings per share - income available to common stockholders 113.1 122.9 Adjustment for interest expense incurred on assumed conversion of convertible notes 3.6 3.6 Numerator for diluted earnings per share - income available to common stockholders after assumed conversion of convertible notes $ 116.7 $ 126.6 Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted-average shares (a) 260,784,905 258,657,939 Effect of dilutive securities - stock based compensation awards 1,703,231 1,230,909 Effect of dilutive securities - convertible senior notes 35,751,213 35,654,960 Denominator for diluted earnings per share - adjusted weighted-average shares and assumed conversion of convertible notes (a) 298,239,349 295,543,808 Earnings per share: Basic $ .43 $ .48 Diluted $ .39 $ .43 Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents excluded from earning per share computations: Stock based compensation awards — 3,765,001 Convertible senior notes — — Total — 3,765,001 __________ (a) In calculating earnings per share, pertinent accounting rules require that common shares owned by the Company's Employee Savings and Stock Ownership Plan that are not yet allocated to participants in the plan be excluded from the calculation. Such shares are issued and outstanding and have the same voting and other rights applicable to all other common shares.

Investments [Abstract]
Investments	Investments: The Company may classify its invested assets in terms of those assets relative to which it either (1) has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity, (2) has available for sale or (3) has the intention of trading. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the majority of the Company's invested assets were classified as "available for sale." Fixed maturity securities and other preferred and common stocks (equity securities) classified as "available for sale" are included at fair value with changes in such values, net of deferred income taxes, reflected directly in shareholders' equity while fixed maturity securities classified as "held to maturity" are carried at amortized cost. Fair values for fixed maturity securities and equity securities are based on quoted market prices or estimates using values obtained from independent pricing services as applicable. The Company reviews the status and fair value changes of each of its investments on at least a quarterly basis during the year, and estimates of other-than-temporary impairments ("OTTI") in the portfolio's value are evaluated and established at each quarterly balance sheet date. In reviewing investments for OTTI, the Company, in addition to a security's market price history, considers the totality of such factors as the issuer's operating results, financial condition and liquidity, its ability to access capital markets, credit rating trends, most current audit opinion, industry and securities markets conditions, and analyst expectations to reach its conclusions. Sudden fair value declines caused by such adverse developments as newly emerged or imminent bankruptcy filings, issuer default on significant obligations, or reports of financial accounting developments that bring into question the validity of the issuer's previously reported earnings or financial condition, are recognized as realized losses as soon as credible publicly available information emerges to confirm such developments. Absent issuer-specific circumstances that would result in a contrary conclusion, any equity security with an unrealized investment loss amounting to a 20% or greater decline consecutively during a six month period is considered OTTI. In the event the Company's estimate of OTTI is insufficient at any point in time, future periods' net income (loss) would be adversely affected by the recognition of additional realized or impairment losses, but its financial position would not necessarily be affected adversely inasmuch as such losses, or a portion of them, could have been recognized previously as unrealized losses in shareholders' equity. The Company recognized no OTTI adjustments for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 . The amortized cost and estimated fair values by type and contractual maturity of fixed maturity securities are shown in the following tables. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities since borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

At December 31, 2016 , the Company held 718 fixed maturity and 8 equity securities in an unrealized loss position, representing 37.0% (as to fixed maturities) and 7.7% (as to equity securities) of the total number of such issues it held. Of the securities in an unrealized loss position, 42 and 46 fixed maturity securities and 2 and 2 equity securities, had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. The unrealized losses on these securities are primarily deemed to reflect changes in the interest rate environment and changes in fair values of fixed income and equity securities issued by participants in the extractive industries in particular. As part of its assessment of other-than-temporary impairments, the Company considers its intent to continue to hold, and the likelihood that it will not be required to sell investment securities in an unrealized loss position until cost recovery, principally on the basis of its asset and liability maturity matching procedures. Fair Value Measurements - Fair value is defined as the estimated price that is likely to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (an exit price) at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy is established that prioritizes the sources ("inputs") used to measure fair value into three broad levels: inputs based on quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1); observable inputs based on corroboration with available market data (Level 2); and unobservable inputs based on uncorroborated market data or a reporting entity's own assumptions (Level 3). Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and general classification used for financial instruments measured at fair value. The Company uses quoted values and other data provided by a nationally recognized independent pricing source as inputs into its quarterly process for determining fair values of its fixed maturity and equity securities. To validate the techniques or models used by pricing sources, the Company's review process includes, but is not limited to: (i) initial and ongoing evaluation of methodologies used by outside parties to calculate fair value; and (ii) comparing other sources including the fair value estimates to its knowledge of the current market and to independent fair value estimates provided by the investment custodian. The independent pricing source obtains market quotations and actual transaction prices for securities that have quoted prices in active markets and uses its own proprietary method for determining the fair value of securities that are not actively traded. In general, these methods involve the use of "matrix pricing" in which the independent pricing source uses observable market inputs including, but not limited to, investment yields, credit risks and spreads, benchmarking of like securities, broker-dealer quotes, reported trades and sector groupings to determine a reasonable fair value. Level 1 securities include U.S. and Canadian Treasury notes, publicly traded common stocks, the quoted net asset value ("NAV") mutual funds, and most short-term investments in highly liquid money market instruments. Level 2 securities generally include corporate bonds, municipal bonds, and certain U.S. and Canadian government agency securities. Securities classified within Level 3 include non-publicly traded bonds and equity securities. There were no significant changes in the fair value of assets measured with the use of significant unobservable inputs as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . The following tables show a summary of the fair value of financial assets segregated among the various input levels described above: Fair Value Measurements As of March 31, 2017: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Available for sale: Fixed maturity securities: U.S. & Canadian Governments $ 774.3 $ 678.5 $ — $ 1,452.8 Corporate — 6,672.4 10.5 6,682.9 Equity securities 3,011.1 — 1.0 3,012.2 Short-term investments 654.1 — — 654.1 Held to maturity: Fixed maturity securities: Tax-exempt $ — $ 1,040.5 $ — $ 1,040.5 As of December 31, 2016: Available for sale: Fixed maturity securities: U.S. & Canadian Governments $ 772.1 $ 654.7 $ — $ 1,426.8 Corporate — 6,733.6 10.5 6,744.1 Equity securities 2,895.2 — .9 2,896.1 Short-term investments 681.6 — — 681.6 Held to maturity: Fixed maturity securities: Tax-exempt $ — $ 947.4 $ — $ 947.4 There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 . Investment income is reported net of allocated expenses and includes appropriate adjustments for amortization of premium and accretion of discount on fixed maturity securities acquired at other than par value. Dividends on equity securities are credited to income on the ex-dividend date. Realized investment gains and losses, which result from sales or write-downs of securities, are reflected as revenues in the income statement and are determined on the basis of amortized value at date of sale for fixed maturity securities, and cost in regard to equity securities; such bases apply to the specific securities sold. Unrealized investment gains and losses, net of any deferred income taxes, are recorded directly as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders' equity.

Insurance [Abstract]
Losses, Claims and Settlement Expenses	Losses, Claims and Settlement Expenses: The establishment of claim reserves by the Company's insurance subsidiaries is a reasonably complex and dynamic process influenced by a large variety of factors. These factors principally include past experience applicable to the anticipated costs of various types of claims, continually evolving and changing legal theories emanating from the judicial system, recurring accounting, statistical, and actuarial studies, the professional experience and expertise of the Company's claim departments' personnel or attorneys and independent claim adjusters, ongoing changes in claim frequency or severity patterns such as those caused by natural disasters, illnesses, accidents, work‑related injuries, and changes in general and industry-specific economic conditions. Consequently, the reserves established are a reflection of the opinions of a large number of persons, of the application and interpretation of historical precedent and trends, of expectations as to future developments, and of management's judgment in interpreting all such factors. At any point in time, the Company is exposed to the risk of possibly higher or lower than anticipated claim costs due to all of these factors, and to the evolution, interpretation, and expansion of tort law, as well as the effects of unexpected jury verdicts. All reserves are therefore based on estimates which are periodically reviewed and evaluated in the light of emerging claim experience and changing circumstances. The resulting changes in estimates are recorded in operations of the periods during which they are made. Return and additional premiums and policyholders' dividends, all of which tend to be affected by development of claims in future years, may offset, in whole or in part, developed claim redundancies or deficiencies for certain coverages such as workers' compensation, portions of which are written under loss sensitive programs that provide for such adjustments. The Company believes that its overall reserving practices have been consistently applied over many years, and that its aggregate net reserves have generally resulted in reasonable approximations of the ultimate net costs of claims incurred. However, no representation is made nor is any guaranty given that ultimate net claim and related costs will not develop in future years to be greater or lower than currently established reserve estimates. The Company’s accounting policy regarding the establishment of claim reserve estimates is described in Note 1(h) to the consolidated financial statements included in Old Republic’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following table shows an analysis of changes in aggregate reserves for the Company's losses, claims and settlement expenses for each of the periods shown. Quarters Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Gross reserves at beginning of period $ 9,206.0 $ 9,120.2 Less: reinsurance losses recoverable 2,766.1 2,732.5 Net reserves at beginning of period: General Insurance 5,249.9 5,053.1 Title Insurance 602.0 580.8 RFIG Run-off 574.0 736.7 Other 13.8 16.9 Sub-total 6,439.8 6,387.6 Incurred claims and claim adjustment expenses: Provisions for insured events of the current year: General Insurance 513.3 518.7 Title Insurance 21.3 24.4 RFIG Run-off (a) 32.8 40.6 Other 7.0 6.0 Sub-total 574.6 589.7 Change in provision for insured events of prior years: General Insurance 10.1 1.9 Title Insurance (10.3 ) — RFIG Run-off (a) (13.0 ) (20.4 ) Other (1.8 ) (.9 ) Sub-total (15.1 ) (19.4 ) Total incurred claims and claim adjustment expenses (a) 559.5 570.3 Payments: Claims and claim adjustment expenses attributable to insured events of the current year: General Insurance 94.1 93.5 Title Insurance .2 .1 RFIG Run-off (b) .2 — Other 2.5 2.5 Sub-total 97.1 96.3 Claims and claim adjustment expenses attributable to insured events of prior years: General Insurance 367.5 379.3 Title Insurance 14.7 17.4 RFIG Run-off (b) 53.4 59.4 Other 2.2 4.9 Sub-total 437.8 461.1 Total payments (b) 535.0 557.5 Amount of reserves for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses at the end of each period, net of reinsurance losses recoverable: (c) General Insurance 5,311.7 5,100.8 Title Insurance 598.1 587.6 RFIG Run-off 540.2 697.3 Other 14.2 14.5 Sub-total 6,464.3 6,400.4 Reinsurance losses recoverable 2,766.9 2,667.1 Gross reserves at end of period $ 9,231.3 $ 9,067.5 __________ (a) In common with all other insurance lines, RFIG Run-off mortgage guaranty settled and incurred claim and claim adjustment expenses include only those costs actually or expected to be paid by the Company. Changes in mortgage guaranty aggregate case, IBNR, and loss adjustment expense reserves shown below and entering into the determination of incurred claim costs, take into account, among a large number of variables, claim cost reductions for anticipated coverage rescissions and claims denials. The RFIG Run-off mortgage guaranty provision for insured events of the current year was reduced by estimated coverage rescissions and claims denials of $1.7 and $2.9 for the year-to-date periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The provision for insured events of prior years for the periods shown in the table was (increased) reduced by estimated coverage rescissions and claims denials of $(1.6) and $(.4) , respectively. Prior year development was also affected in varying degrees by differences between actual claim settlements relative to expected experience, by reinstatement of previously rescinded or denied claims, and by subsequent revisions of assumptions in regards to claim frequency, severity or levels of associated claim settlement costs which result from consideration of underlying trends and expectations. Changes in aggregate claim and loss adjustment expense reserves estimates are shown in the following table: Quarters Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Net reserve increase(decrease): General Insurance $ 61.8 $ 47.7 Title Insurance (3.9 ) 6.8 RFIG Run-off (33.7 ) (39.3 ) Other .3 (2.3 ) Total $ 24.4 $ 12.7 (b) Rescissions reduced the Company's paid losses by an estimated $(3.0) and $(6.4) for the year-to-date periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. (c) Net reserves for claims that have been incurred but are not yet reported ("IBNR") carried in each segment were as follows: March 31, March 31, December 31, 2017 2016 2016 General Insurance $ 2,515.3 $ 2,406.7 $ 2,431.2 Title Insurance 521.5 516.5 517.5 RFIG Run-off 208.6 192.1 206.3 Other 5.0 4.8 5.4 Total $ 3,250.6 $ 3,120.3 $ 3,160.5

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Information About Segments of Business	Information About Segments of Business: Old Republic is engaged in the single business of insurance underwriting and related services. The Company conducts its operations through a number of regulated insurance company subsidiaries organized into three major segments, namely its General Insurance Group (property and liability insurance), Title Insurance Group, and the Republic Financial Indemnity Group ("RFIG") Run-off Business. The results of a small life & accident insurance business are included with those of the holding company parent and minor corporate services operations. Each of the Company's segments underwrites and services only those insurance coverages which may be written by it pursuant to state insurance regulations and corporate charter provisions. Segment results exclude net realized investment gains or losses and other-than-temporary impairments as these are aggregated in the consolidated totals. The contributions of Old Republic's insurance industry segments to consolidated totals are shown in the following table. Quarters Ended March 31, 2017 2016 General Insurance: Net premiums earned $ 742.8 $ 718.9 Net investment income and other income 106.2 105.7 Total revenues before realized gains or losses $ 849.0 $ 824.6 Income before taxes (credits) and realized investment gains or losses (a) $ 93.7 $ 87.0 Income tax expense (credits) on above $ 28.0 $ 26.8 Title Insurance: Net premiums earned $ 418.3 $ 379.3 Title, escrow and other fees 99.7 94.8 Sub-total 518.0 474.1 Net investment income and other income 9.7 9.4 Total revenues before realized gains or losses $ 527.8 $ 483.6 Income before taxes (credits) and realized investment gains or losses (a) $ 40.4 $ 21.4 Income tax expense (credits) on above $ 13.8 $ 7.5 RFIG Run-off Business: Net premiums earned $ 35.5 $ 47.8 Net investment income and other income 5.5 5.9 Total revenues before realized gains or losses $ 41.1 $ 53.7 Income before taxes (credits) and realized investment gains or losses $ 14.5 $ 27.7 Income tax expense (credits) on above $ 5.2 $ 9.6 Consolidated Revenues: Total revenues of above Company segments $ 1,418.0 $ 1,362.0 Other sources (b) 41.9 28.3 Consolidated net realized investment gains (losses) 14.8 44.1 Consolidation elimination adjustments (29.9 ) (21.0 ) Consolidated revenues $ 1,444.8 $ 1,413.5 Consolidated Income Before Taxes (Credits): Total income before income taxes (credits) and realized investment gains or losses of above Company segments $ 148.7 $ 136.2 Other sources - net (b) 1.1 1.9 Consolidated net realized investment gains (losses) 14.8 44.1 Consolidated income before income taxes (credits) $ 164.7 $ 182.3 Consolidated Income Tax Expense (Credits): Total income tax expense (credits) for above Company segments $ 47.1 $ 44.0 Other sources - net (b) (.7 ) (.1 ) Income tax expense (credits) on consolidated net realized investment gains (losses) 5.1 15.4 Consolidated income tax expense (credits) $ 51.6 $ 59.3 March 31, December 31, 2017 2016 Consolidated Assets: General Insurance $ 15,546.1 $ 15,305.7 Title Insurance 1,438.9 1,423.0 RFIG Run-off Business 887.7 904.8 Total assets for the above company segments 17,872.8 17,633.6 Other assets (b) 1,353.1 1,301.8 Consolidation elimination adjustments (320.5 ) (343.9 ) Consolidated assets $ 18,905.4 $ 18,591.6 __________ (a) Income before taxes (credits) is reported net of interest charges on intercompany financing arrangements with Old Republic's holding company parent for the following segments: General - $14.1 and $12.1 for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and Title - $2.1 for both quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 . (b) Represents amounts for Old Republic's holding company parent, minor corporate services subsidiaries, and a small life and accident insurance operation. The material increases in mortgage guaranty insurance claims and loss payments that began in 2007 gradually depleted Republic Mortgage Insurance Company's ("RMIC") statutory capital base and forced it to discontinue writing new business in 2011. The insurance laws of 16 jurisdictions, including RMIC's and its affiliate company, Republic Mortgage Insurance Company of North Carolina's ("RMICNC") domiciliary state of North Carolina, require a mortgage insurer to maintain a minimum amount of statutory capital relative to risk in force (or a similar measure) in order to continue to write new business. The formulations currently allow for a maximum risk-to-capital ratio of 25 to 1 , or alternatively stated, a "minimum policyholder position" ("MPP") of one-twenty-fifth of the total risk in force. The failure to maintain the prescribed minimum capital level in a particular state generally requires a mortgage insurer to immediately stop writing new business until it reestablishes the required level of capital or receives a waiver of the requirement from a state's insurance regulatory authority. RMIC breached the minimum capital requirement during the third quarter of 2010. RMIC had previously requested and, subsequently received waivers or forbearance of the minimum policyholder position requirements from the regulatory authorities in substantially all affected states. Following several brief extensions, the waiver from its domiciliary state of North Carolina expired on August 31, 2011, and RMIC and its sister company, RMICNC, discontinued writing new business in all states and limited themselves to servicing the run-off of their existing business. They were placed under administrative supervision by the North Carolina Department of Insurance ("NCDOI") the following year and ultimately ordered to defer the payment of 40% of all settled claims as a deferred payment obligation ("DPO"). On July 1, 2014, the NCDOI issued a Final Order approving an Amended and Restated Corrective Plan (the "Amended Plan") submitted jointly on April 16, 2014, by RMIC and RMICNC. Under the Amended Plan, RMIC and RMICNC were authorized to pay 100% of their DPOs accrued as of June 30, 2014 and to settle all subsequent valid claims entirely in cash, without establishing any DPOs. In anticipation of receiving this Final Order, ORI invested $125.0 of cash and securities in RMIC during June 2014. In mid-July 2014, in furtherance of the Final Order, RMIC and RMICNC processed payments of their accumulated DPO balances of approximately $657.0 relating to fully settled claims charged to periods extending between January 19, 2012 and June 30, 2014. Both subsidiaries remain under the supervision of the NCDOI as they continue to operate in run-off mode. The approval of the Amended Plan notwithstanding, the NCDOI retains its regulatory supervisory powers to review and amend the terms of the Amended Plan in the future as circumstances may warrant.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities	Commitments and Contingent Liabilities: Legal proceedings against the Company and its subsidiaries routinely arise in the normal course of business and usually pertain to claim matters related to insurance policies and contracts issued by its insurance subsidiaries. Other, non-routine legal proceedings which may prove to be material to the Company or a subsidiary are discussed below. On December 19, 2008, Old Republic Insurance Company and Republic Insured Credit Services, Inc., ("Old Republic") filed suit against Countrywide Bank FSB, Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. ("Countrywide") and Bank of New York Mellon, BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware ("BNYM") in the Circuit Court, Cook County, Illinois ( Old Republic Insurance Company, et al. v. Countrywide Bank FSB, et al. ) seeking rescission of various credit indemnity policies issued to insure home equity loans and home equity lines of credit which Countrywide had securitized or held for its own account, a declaratory judgment and money damages based upon systemic material misrepresentations and fraud by Countrywide as to the credit characteristics of the loans or by the borrowers in their loan applications. Countrywide filed a counterclaim alleging a breach of contract, bad faith and seeking a declaratory judgment challenging the factual and procedural bases that Old Republic had relied upon to deny or rescind coverage for individual defaulted loans under those policies, as well as unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. The Court ruled that Countrywide does not have standing to counterclaim with respect to the policies insuring the securitized loans because those policies were issued to BNYM. In response, Countrywide and BNYM jointly filed a motion asking the Court to allow an amended counterclaim in which BNYM would raise substantially similar allegations as those raised by Countrywide and make substantially similar requests but with respect to the policies issued to BNYM. The Court dismissed their motion, with leave to re-plead the counterclaim. BNYM's subsequent attempt to re-plead was granted by the Court and BNYM has re-pleaded its counterclaim. Pursuant to a revised case management order, a multi-phase trial is set to begin September 25, 2017. On December 30, 2011 and on January 4, 2013, purported class action suits alleging RESPA violations were filed in the Federal District Court, for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania targeting RMIC, other mortgage guaranty insurance companies, PNC Financial Services Group (as successor to National City Bank) and HSBC Bank USA, N.A., and their wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiaries. ( White, Hightower, et al. v. PNC Financial Services Group (as successor to National City Bank) et al. ), ( Ba, Chip, et al. v. HSBC Bank USA, N.A., et al. ). The lawsuits are two of twelve against various lenders, their captive reinsurers and the mortgage insurers, filed by the same law firms. All of these lawsuits were substantially identical in alleging that the mortgage guaranty insurers had reinsurance arrangements with the defendant banks' captive insurance subsidiaries under which payments were made in violation of the anti-kickback and fee splitting prohibitions of Sections 8(a) and 8(b) of RESPA. Ten of the twelve suits have been dismissed. A class has not been certified in either remaining suit. Those two remaining suits seeking unspecified damages, costs, fees and the return of the allegedly improper payments were settled with an agreement to make nominal payments. Ba has been dismissed with prejudice and White is awaiting the Court's dismissal. On October 9, 2014, Intellectual Ventures I LLC and Intellectual Ventures II LLC (collectively, "IV") served a complaint naming as defendants Old Republic National Title Insurance Company, Old Republic Title Insurance Group, Inc., Old Republic Insurance Company and Old Republic General Insurance Group, Inc. (collectively, "Old Republic")( Intellectual Ventures I LLC et al. v. Old Republic General Insurance Group, Inc. et al .). The lawsuit was brought in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. IV alleged that Old Republic has infringed three patents and sought damages, costs, expenses, and pre-judgment and post-judgment interest for the alleged infringement, in addition to injunctive relief. On October 14, 2014, Old Republic filed a motion to dismiss each count of the complaint on the grounds that the patents fail to meet the patentability test established by the United States Supreme Court in Alice Corp. Pty. Ltd. v. CLS Bank , 134 S.Ct. 2347 (2014). The District Court granted Old Republic’s motion to dismiss on all three patents on September 25, 2015. Concurrently, Old Republic filed inter partes review petitions challenging validity of the patents before the United States Patent & Trademark Office ("USPTO") in late September and early October, 2015. In late October, 2015, IV filed notice of its appeal of the District Court’s dismissal of its claims. On March 7, 2017, the United States Court of Appeal for the Federal Circuit affirmed the District Court's dismissal. Subsequently, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board ("PTAB") of the USPTO issued a series of orders finding in favor of Old Republic's challenges to the three patents. On January 20, 2015, Intellectual Ventures II LLC filed two complaints in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas naming as defendants Great West Casualty Company and BITCO General Insurance Corporation and BITCO National Insurance Company. ( Intellectual Ventures II LLC v. Great West Casualty Company ) and ( Intellectual Ventures II LLC v. BITCO General Insurance Corporation et al. ) The plaintiff alleges a single patent infringement and seeks damages, costs, expenses, and pre-judgment and post-judgment interest in addition to injunctive relief. On April 9, 2015, plaintiff amended each complaint to allege a second patent infringement claim. The District Court set a trial date in September, 2016. In August and September, 2015, Great West and BITCO filed inter partes review petitions challenging the validity of claims under the patents before the PTAB. Both petitions were accepted for review. On May 11, 2016, the parties filed a stipulation of dismissal on one of the patent infringement claims in the District Court. On June 29, 2016, IV disclaimed all claims it asserted against Great West and BITCO on that patent and, accordingly, the inter partes review was terminated by the PTAB. With respect to the remaining single patent infringement claim, on May 12, 2016, the District Court issued a stay on the suit until such time as the PTAB issues its ruling on the inter partes review. On January 17, 2017, the PTAB issued its ruling, finding all but one claim under the patent to be unpatentable. IV appealed the ruling on March 20, 2017, to the United States Court of Appeal for the Federal Circuit. Further, on February 6, 2017, noting that a separate inter partes review for all claims under the patent, including the single claim remaining in the BITCO and Great West lawsuits, is ongoing between IV and another party, the District Court extended the stay until January 20, 2018. On July 5, 2016, Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC and Homeward Residential, Inc. (collectively, "Ocwen") filed an amendment to an initial complaint against Republic Mortgage Insurance Company and Republic Mortgage Insurance Company of North Carolina (collectively, "RMIC"). The suit, which is captioned Ocwen et al. v. RMIC et al., is pending in the General Court of Justice, Superior Court Division for Forsyth County, North Carolina. The amendment for the first time identifies specific mortgage insurance certificates as to which Ocwen alleges breaches of contract, bad faith and violations of certain fair claims settlement practices laws and seeks declaratory relief in regard to certain claims handling practices on future claims. RMIC believes the suit is without merit and intends to defend vigorously. Under GAAP, an estimated loss is accrued only if the loss is probable and reasonably estimable. The Company and its subsidiaries have defended and intend to continue defending vigorously against each of the aforementioned actions. The Company does not believe it probable that any of these actions will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, though there can be no assurance in those regards. The Company has made an estimate of its potential liability under certain of these lawsuits and the counterclaim, all of which seek unquantified damages, attorneys' fees, and expenses. Because of the uncertainty of the ultimate outcomes of the aforementioned disputes, additional costs may arise in future periods beyond the Company's current reserves. It is also unclear what effect, if any, the run-off operations of RMIC and its limited capital will have in the actions against it.

The notes bear interest at a rate of 3.875% per year and mature on August 26, 2026 . On September 23, 2014 , the Company completed a public offering of $400.0 aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes. The notes bear interest at a rate of 4.875% per year and mature on October 1, 2024 . The Company completed a public offering of $550.0 aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes in early March, 2011. The notes bear interest at a rate of 3.75% per year, mature on March 15, 2018 , and are convertible at any time prior to maturity by the holder into 64.3407 shares (subject to periodic adjustment under certain circumstances) of common stock per one thousand dollar note. The Company's 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes, 4.875% Senior Notes, and 3.875% Senior Notes ("the Notes") contain provisions defining certain events of default, among them a court ordered proceeding due to the insolvency of a Significant Subsidiary. The Notes define Significant Subsidiary in accordance with the paragraph (w) of Rule 1-02 of the SEC's Regulation S-X. The Company's flagship mortgage guaranty insurance carrier, RMIC, qualifies as a Significant Subsidiary for purposes of the Notes. If RMIC were to become statutorily impaired, its insolvency could trigger a receivership proceeding which, in turn could ultimately result in an event of default. If this were to occur, the outstanding principal of the Notes could become immediately due and payable. Management believes the Final Order by the North Carolina Department of Insurance to RMIC has precluded such an event of default from occurring in the foreseeable future. Moreover, RMIC was statutorily solvent at March 31, 2017 and management has every expectation that its solvent state is likely to prevail. RMIC is expected to be an increasingly less significant subsidiary over time as its in force business declines. Fair Value Measurements - The Company utilizes indicative market prices, which incorporate recent actual market transactions and current bid/ask quotations to estimate the fair value of outstanding debt securities that are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as presented below. The Company uses an internally generated interest yield market matrix table, which incorporates maturity, coupon rate, credit quality, structure and current market conditions to estimate the fair value of its outstanding debt securities that are classified within Level 3. The following table shows a summary of the carrying value and fair value of financial liabilities segregated among the various input levels described in Note 3 above: Carrying Fair Value Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Financial Liabilities: Debt: March 31, 2017 $ 1,525.5 $ 1,741.3 $ — $ 1,704.6 $ 36.7 December 31, 2016 $ 1,528.7 $ 1,679.7 $ — $ 1,639.0 $ 40.6

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes: Tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by the Company are recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. To the best of management's knowledge, there are no tax uncertainties that are expected to result in significant increases or decreases to unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve month period. The Company views its income tax exposures as primarily consisting of timing differences whereby the ultimate deductibility of a taxable amount is highly certain but the timing of its deductibility is uncertain. Such differences relate principally to the timing of deductions for loss and premium reserves. As in prior examinations, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") could assert that claim reserve deductions were overstated thereby reducing the Company's statutory taxable income in any particular year. The Company believes that it establishes its reserves fairly and consistently at each balance sheet date, and that it would succeed in defending its tax position in these regards. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, the possible accelerated payment of tax to the IRS would not necessarily affect the annual effective tax rate. The Company classifies interest and penalties as income tax expense in the consolidated statement of income. The IRS has audited the Company's consolidated Federal income tax returns through year-end 2013 and no significant adjustments ultimately resulted.

The provision for insured events of prior years for the periods shown in the table was (increased) reduced by estimated coverage rescissions and claims denials of $(1.6) and $(.4) , respectively. Prior year development was also affected in varying degrees by differences between actual claim settlements relative to expected experience, by reinstatement of previously rescinded or denied claims, and by subsequent revisions of assumptions in regards to claim frequency, severity or levels of associated claim settlement costs which result from consideration of underlying trends and expectations.
