Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of State Auto Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries (“State Auto Financial” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 . The balance sheet at December 31, 2015 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (the “ 2015 Form 10-K”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the 2015 Form 10-K. Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs The amendments in this guidance simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring them to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related recognized debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The Company adopted this guidance at January 1, 2016 on a retrospective basis and it resulted in a $0.3 million decrease to notes payable and accrued investment income and other assets at December 31, 2015. Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) The amendments in this guidance remove the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient. The amendments also remove the requirement to make certain disclosures for all investments that are eligible to be measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical expedient. Rather, those disclosures are limited to investments for which the entity has elected to measure the fair value using that practical expedient. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years and should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company adopted this guidance at January 1, 2016 and it did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following table sets forth the realized losses related to other-than-temporary impairments on the Company’s investment portfolio recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 : ($ millions) Three months ended September 30 Nine months ended September 30 2016 2015 2016 2015 Equity securities: Large-cap securities $ — $ — $ (0.2 ) $ — Small-cap securities (1.1 ) (3.5 ) (2.9 ) (4.8 ) Fixed maturities: — — (2.3 ) — Total other-than-temporary impairments $ (1.1 ) $ (3.5 ) $ (5.4 ) $ (4.8 ) The Company regularly monitors its investments that have fair values less than cost or amortized cost for signs of other-than-temporary impairment, an assessment that requires significant management judgment regarding the evidence known. Such judgments could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could negatively impact the amounts reported. Among the factors that management considers for fixed maturity securities are the financial condition of the issuer including receipt of scheduled principal and interest cash flows, and intent to sell, including if it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery. When a fixed maturity has been determined to have an other-than-temporary impairment, the impairment charge is separated into an amount representing the credit loss, which is recognized in earnings as a realized loss, and the amount related to non-credit factors, which is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. Future increases or decreases in fair value, if not other-than-temporary, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income. Among the factors that management considers for equity securities and other invested assets are the length of time and/or the significance of decline below cost, the Company’s ability and intent to hold these securities through their recovery periods, the current financial condition of the issuer and its future business prospects, and the ability of the market value to recover to cost in the near term. When an equity security or other invested asset has been determined to have a decline in fair value that is other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the security is adjusted to fair value. This results in a charge to earnings as a realized loss, which is not reversed for subsequent recoveries in fair value. Future increases or decreases in fair value, if not other-than-temporary, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income. The following table sets forth the amortized cost and fair value of available-for-sale fixed maturities by contractual maturity at September 30, 2016 : ($ millions) Amortized cost Fair value Due in 1 year or less $ 67.1 $ 68.1 Due after 1 year through 5 years 564.0 579.4 Due after 5 years through 10 years 275.3 286.1 Due after 10 years 584.9 618.8 U.S. government agencies mortgage-backed securities 569.7 590.9 Total $ 2,061.0 $ 2,143.3 Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay the obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. At September 30, 2016 , State Auto P&C had U.S. government agencies mortgage-backed fixed maturity securities, with a carrying value of approximately $106.5 million , that were pledged as collateral for the FHLB Loans (as defined in Note 3). In accordance with the terms of the FHLB Loans, State Auto P&C retains all rights regarding these pledged securities. Fixed maturities with fair values of $9.2 million and $8.8 million were on deposit with insurance regulators as required by law at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively. The Company retains all rights regarding these securities.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments Below is the fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value: • Level 1 includes observable inputs which reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date. • Level 2 includes observable inputs for assets or liabilities other than quoted prices included in Level 1, and it includes valuation techniques which use prices for similar assets and liabilities. • Level 3 includes unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk). The Company utilizes one nationally recognized pricing service to estimate the majority of its available-for-sale investment portfolio’s fair value. The Company obtains one price per security and the processes and control procedures employed by the Company are designed to ensure the value is accurately recorded on an unadjusted basis. Through discussions with the pricing service, the Company gains an understanding of the methodologies used to price the different types of securities, that the data and the valuation methods utilized are appropriate and consistently applied, and that the assumptions are reasonable and representative of fair value. To validate the reasonableness of the valuations obtained from the pricing service, the Company compares to other fair value pricing information gathered from other independent pricing sources. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company did not adjust any of the prices received from the pricing service. Transfers between level categorizations may occur due to changes in the availability of market observable inputs. Transfers in and out of level categorizations are reported as having occurred at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfer occurred. There were no transfers between level categorizations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 . The following sections describe the valuation methods used by the Company for each type of financial instrument it holds that are carried at fair value. Fixed Maturities The Company utilizes a third party pricing service to estimate fair value measurements for the majority of its fixed maturities. The fair value estimate of the Company’s fixed maturity investments are determined by evaluations that are based on observable market information rather than market quotes. Inputs to the evaluations include, but are not limited to, market prices from recently completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities, interest rate yield curves, credit spreads, and other market-observable information. The fixed maturity portfolio pricing obtained from the pricing service is reviewed for reasonableness. The Company regularly selects a random sample of security prices which are compared to one or more alternative pricing sources for reasonableness. Any discrepancies with the pricing are returned to the pricing service for further explanation and, if necessary, adjustments are made. To date, the Company has not identified any significant discrepancies in the pricing provided by its third party pricing service. Investments valued using these inputs include U.S. treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government agencies, obligations of states and political subdivisions, corporate securities (except for a security discussed below), and U.S. government agencies mortgage-backed securities. All unadjusted estimates of fair value for fixed maturities priced by the pricing service are included in the amounts disclosed in Level 2 of the hierarchy. If market inputs are unavailable, then no fair value is provided by the pricing service. For these securities, fair value is determined either by requesting brokers who are knowledgeable about these securities to provide a quote; or the Company internally determines the fair values by employing widely accepted pricing valuation models, and depending on the level of observable market inputs, renders the fair value estimate as Level 2 or Level 3. The Company holds one corporate fixed maturity security included in Level 3 and estimates its fair value using the present value of the future cash flows. Due to the limited amount of observable market information for this security, the Company includes the fair value estimate in Level 3. Equities The fair value of each equity security is based on an observable market price for an identical asset in an active market and is priced by the same pricing service discussed above. All equity securities are recorded using unadjusted market prices and have been disclosed in Level 1. Other Invested Assets Included in other invested assets are two international funds (“the funds”) that invest in equity securities of foreign issuers and are managed by third party investment managers. The funds had a fair value of $80.7 million and $77.0 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively, which was determined using each fund’s net asset value. The Company employs procedures to assess the reasonableness of the fair value of the funds including obtaining and reviewing each fund’s audited financial statements. There are no unfunded commitments related to the funds. The Company may not sell its investment in the funds; however, the Company may redeem all or a portion of its investment in the funds at net asset value per share with the appropriate prior written notice. In accordance with Accounting Standard Codification 820-10, these investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. Fair values presented here are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The remainder of the Company’s other invested assets consist primarily of holdings in publicly-traded mutual funds. The Company believes that its prices for these publicly-traded mutual funds based on an observable market price for an identical asset in an active market reflect their fair values and consequently these securities have been disclosed in Level 1. The following tables set forth the Company’s available-for-sale investments within the fair value hierarchy at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 : ($ millions) Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 September 30, 2016 Fixed maturities: U.S. treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government agencies $ 330.9 $ — $ 330.9 $ — Obligations of states and political subdivisions 698.6 — 698.6 — Corporate securities 522.9 — 519.4 3.5 U.S. government agencies mortgage-backed securities 590.9 — 590.9 — Total fixed maturities 2,143.3 — 2,139.8 3.5 Equity securities: Large-cap securities 225.6 225.6 — — Small-cap securities 71.9 71.9 — — Total equity securities 297.5 297.5 — — Other invested assets 9.0 9.0 — — Total available-for-sale investments $ 2,449.8 $ 306.5 $ 2,139.8 $ 3.5 ($ millions) Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 December 31, 2015 Fixed maturities: U.S. treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government agencies $ 224.4 $ — $ 224.4 $ — Obligations of states and political subdivisions 824.8 — 824.8 — Corporate securities 494.4 — 491.1 3.3 U.S. government agencies mortgage-backed securities 457.1 — 457.1 — Total fixed maturities 2,000.7 — 1,997.4 3.3 Equity securities: Large-cap securities 241.0 241.0 — — Small-cap securities 69.6 69.6 — — Total equity securities 310.6 310.6 — — Other invested assets 8.1 8.1 — — Total available-for-sale investments $ 2,319.4 $ 318.7 $ 1,997.4 $ 3.3 For assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), the following tables set forth a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 , separately for each major category of assets: ($ millions) Fixed maturities Balance at January 1, 2016 $ 3.3 Total realized gains – included in earnings — Total unrealized losses – included in other comprehensive income — Purchases 0.1 Sales — Transfers into Level 3 — Transfers out of Level 3 — Balance at March 31, 2016 $ 3.4 Total realized gains – included in earnings — Total unrealized losses – included in other comprehensive income — Purchases — Sales — Transfers into Level 3 — Transfers out of Level 3 — Balance at June 30, 2016 $ 3.4 Total realized gains – included in earnings — Total unrealized gains – included in other comprehensive income — Purchases 0.1 Sales — Transfers into Level 3 — Transfers out of Level 3 — Balance at September 30, 2016 $ 3.5 ($ millions) Fixed maturities Balance at January 1, 2015 $ 9.4 Total realized gains – included in earnings — Total unrealized gains – included in other comprehensive income (0.2 ) Purchases — Sales (5.9 ) Transfers into Level 3 — Transfers out of Level 3 — Balance at December 31, 2015 $ 3.3 The following sections describe the valuation methods used by the Company for each type of financial instrument it holds that is not measured at fair value but for which fair value is disclosed: Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, At Fair Value Other Invested Assets Included in other invested assets are common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (the "FHLB") and the Trust Securities. The Trust Securities and FHLB common stock are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The fair value of the FHLB common stock at September 30, 2016 was $4.9 million and the fair value of the Trust Securities was $0.5 million . The investments have been placed in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Notes Receivable from Affiliate In May 2009, the Company entered into two separate credit agreements with State Automobile Mutual Insurance Company (“State Auto Mutual") pursuant to which it loaned State Auto Mutual a total of $70.0 million . The Company estimates the fair value of the notes receivable from affiliate using market quotations for U.S. treasury securities with similar maturity dates and applies an appropriate credit spread. Consequently this has been placed in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company estimates the fair value of the FHLB Loans by discounting cash flows using a borrowing rate currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms. The FHLB Loans have been placed in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information The Company has four reportable segments: personal insurance, business insurance, specialty insurance and investment operations. The reportable insurance segments are business units managed separately because of the differences in the type of customers they serve, the products they provide or services they offer. The insurance segments market a broad line of property and casualty insurance products throughout the United States through independent insurance agencies, which include retail agents and wholesale brokers. The personal insurance segment provides primarily personal automobile and homeowners to the personal insurance market. The business insurance segment provides primarily commercial automobile, commercial multi-peril, fire & allied, general liability, and workers' compensation insurance covering small-to-medium sized commercial exposures. The specialty insurance segment provides commercial coverages that require specialized product underwriting, claims handling or risk management services through a distribution channel of retail agents and wholesale brokers, which may include program administrators and other specialty sources. The investment operations segment, managed by Stateco, provides investment services. The Company evaluates the performance of its insurance segments using industry financial measurements based on Statutory Accounting Practices (“SAP”), which include loss and loss adjustment expense ratios, underwriting expense ratios, combined ratios, statutory underwriting gain (loss), net premiums earned and net written premiums. One of the most significant differences between SAP and GAAP is that SAP requires all underwriting expenses to be expensed immediately and not deferred and amortized over the same period the premium is earned. The investment operations segment is evaluated based on investment returns of assets managed by Stateco. Asset information by segment is not reported for the insurance segments because the Company does not produce such information internally. The following table sets forth financial information regarding the Company’s reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 : ($ millions) Three months ended September 30 Nine months ended September 30 2016 2015 2016 2015 Revenue from external sources: Insurance segments Personal insurance $ 145.5 $ 147.2 $ 436.3 $ 445.4 Business insurance 115.0 119.2 353.8 355.3 Specialty insurance 65.3 53.3 178.0 145.8 Total insurance segments 325.8 319.7 968.1 946.5 Investment operations segment Net investment income 17.6 18.7 54.1 53.9 Net realized capital gains 8.8 10.8 16.6 20.4 Total investment operations segment 26.4 29.5 70.7 74.3 All other 0.6 0.5 1.7 1.2 Total revenue from external sources 352.8 349.7 1,040.5 1,022.0 Intersegment revenue 1.5 1.4 4.4 4.2 Total revenue 354.3 351.1 1,044.9 1,026.2 Reconciling items: Eliminate intersegment revenues (1.5 ) (1.4 ) (4.4 ) (4.2 ) Total consolidated revenues $ 352.8 $ 349.7 $ 1,040.5 $ 1,022.0 Segment income before federal income tax: Insurance segments SAP underwriting income (loss) Personal insurance $ 2.6 $ 6.9 $ (18.6 ) $ 14.1 Business insurance (17.5 ) (6.2 ) (36.8 ) (19.3 ) Specialty insurance (4.1 ) 0.6 (28.3 ) (4.3 ) Total insurance segments (19.0 ) 1.3 (83.7 ) (9.5 ) Investment operations segment Net investment income 17.6 18.7 54.1 53.9 Net realized capital gains 8.8 10.8 16.6 20.4 Total investment operations segment 26.4 29.5 70.7 74.3 All other 0.1 0.1 0.3 (0.2 ) Total segment income (loss) before tax expense 7.5 30.9 (12.7 ) 64.6 Reconciling items: GAAP expense adjustments 2.4 0.9 5.8 8.6 Interest expense on corporate debt (1.4 ) (1.3 ) (4.1 ) (4.0 ) Corporate expenses (1.1 ) (0.6 ) (2.9 ) (2.7 ) Total reconciling items (0.1 ) (1.0 ) (1.2 ) 1.9 Total consolidated income (loss) before federal income tax expense $ 7.4 $ 29.9 $ (13.9 ) $ 66.5 Investable assets attributable to the Company’s investment operations segment totaled $2,675.4 million and $2,529.8 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 |

The Company reviews all litigation on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. For certain legal proceedings, the Company cannot reasonably estimate losses or a range of loss, if any, particularly for proceedings that are in their early stages of development or where the plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages. Various factors, including, but not limited to, the outcome of potentially lengthy discovery and the resolution of important factual questions, may need to be determined before probability can be established or before a loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. If the loss contingency in question is not both probable and reasonably estimable, the Company does not establish an accrual and the matter will continue to be monitored for any developments that would make the loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. Based on currently available information known to the Company, it believes that its reserves for litigation-related liabilities are reasonable. However, in the event that a legal proceeding results in a substantial judgment against, or settlement by, the Company, there can be no assurance that any resulting liability or financial commitment would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company is involved in lawsuits in the ordinary course of its business arising out of or otherwise related to its insurance policies. Additionally, from time to time the Company may be involved in lawsuits, including class actions, in the ordinary course of business but not arising out of or otherwise related to its insurance policies. These lawsuits are in various stages of development. The Company generally will contest these matters vigorously but may pursue settlement if appropriate. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe it is reasonably possible that any such lawsuit or related lawsuits will be material to its results of operations or have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |
