Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Business Overview, Recent Developments and Significant Accounting Policies Business Overview We are a diversified mortgage and real estate services business, providing both credit-related insurance coverage and other credit risk management solutions, as well as a broad array of mortgage and real estate services. We have two reportable business segments—Mortgage Insurance and Services. Mortgage Insurance Our Mortgage Insurance segment provides credit-related insurance coverage, principally through private mortgage insurance, as well as other credit risk management solutions, to mortgage lending institutions nationwide. We provide our mortgage insurance products and services mainly through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Radian Guaranty. Private mortgage insurance plays an important role in the U.S. housing finance system because it promotes affordable home ownership and helps protect mortgage lenders, investors and other beneficiaries by mitigating default-related losses on residential mortgage loans. Generally, these loans are made to home buyers who make down payments of less than 20% of the purchase price for their home or, in the case of refinancings, have less than 20% equity in their homes. Private mortgage insurance also facilitates the sale of these low down payment loans in the secondary mortgage market, most of which are sold to the GSEs. Our Mortgage Insurance segment currently offers primary mortgage insurance coverage on residential first-lien mortgage loans. Our total direct primary mortgage insurance RIF was $52.2 billion as of March 31, 2018 . The GSEs and state insurance regulators impose various capital and financial requirements on our insurance subsidiaries. These include Risk-to-capital, other risk-based capital measures and surplus requirements, as well as the PMIERs financial requirements discussed below. Failure to comply with these capital and financial requirements may limit the amount of insurance that our insurance subsidiaries may write or prohibit our insurance subsidiaries from writing insurance altogether. The GSEs and state insurance regulators also possess significant discretion with respect to our insurance subsidiaries and all aspects of their business. See Note 16 for additional regulatory information. PMIERs. In order to be eligible to insure loans purchased by the GSEs, mortgage insurers such as Radian Guaranty must meet the GSEs’ eligibility requirements, or PMIERs. At March 31, 2018 , Radian Guaranty is an approved mortgage insurer under the PMIERs and is in compliance with the PMIERs financial requirements. The PMIERs are comprehensive, covering virtually all aspects of the business and operations of a private mortgage insurer, including internal risk management and quality controls, the relationship between the GSEs and the approved insurer as well as the approved insurer’s financial condition. In addition, the GSEs have a broad range of consent rights under the PMIERs, and require private mortgage insurers to obtain the prior consent of the GSEs before taking certain actions, which may include paying dividends, entering into various intercompany agreements, and commuting or reinsuring risk, among others. If Radian Guaranty is unable to satisfy the requirements set forth in the PMIERs, the GSEs could restrict it from conducting certain types of business with them or take actions that may include not purchasing loans insured by Radian Guaranty. The PMIERs financial requirements require that a mortgage insurer’s Available Assets meet or exceed its Minimum Required Assets. The GSEs may amend the PMIERs at any time, and they have broad discretion to interpret the requirements, which could impact the calculation of Radian Guaranty’s Available Assets and/or Minimum Required Assets. Further, the PMIERs specifically provide that the factors applied to determine a mortgage insurer’s Minimum Required Assets may be updated every two years following a minimum of 180 days’ notice, or more frequently, as determined by the GSEs. As previously announced, Radian Guaranty received, on a confidential basis, proposed changes to the PMIERs. Based on this information, which has been subject to comment by the private mortgage insurance industry, Radian expects to be able to fully comply with the proposed PMIERs and to maintain an excess of Available Assets over Minimum Required Assets under the PMIERs as of their effective date, which is expected to be no earlier than the end of 2018. From time to time, we enter into reinsurance transactions as part of our strategy to manage our capital position and risk profile, which includes managing Radian Guaranty’s position under the PMIERs financial requirements. The credit that we receive under the PMIERs financial requirements for these transactions is subject to the periodic review of the GSEs. Services Our Services segment is primarily a fee-for-service business that offers a broad array of services to market participants across the mortgage and real estate value chain. These services comprise mortgage services, real estate services and title services that provide mortgage lenders, financial institutions, mortgage and real estate investors and government entities, among others, with information and other resources and services that are used to originate, evaluate, acquire, securitize, service and monitor residential real estate and loans secured by residential real estate. Our mortgage services include transaction management services such as loan review, RMBS securitization and distressed asset reviews, servicer and loan surveillance and underwriting. Our real estate services include: REO asset management; review and valuation services related to single family rental properties; real estate valuation services and real estate brokerage services. Our title services include title search, title insurance, settlement and closing services. 2018 Developments Capital and Liquidity Actions. On August 9, 2017, Radian Group’s board of directors renewed the Company’s share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $50 million of its common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we purchased 531,013 shares at an average price of $18.84 per share, including commissions. At March 31, 2018 , purchase authority of up to $40.0 million remained available under this program. Subsequent to March 31, 2018 , we have purchased additional shares under this program. See Note 14 for additional information. Restructuring and Other Exit Costs. Pretax restructuring charges of $0.6 million were recognized in the first quarter of 2018, including $0.5 million in cash expenses. These charges were a result of the Company’s 2017 plan to restructure the Services business. We expect to incur additional pretax charges of approximately $3.1 million under this plan, including approximately $2.5 million in cash payments. These remaining charges are expected to be recognized by December 31, 2018. The total estimated restructuring charges of approximately $3.7 million during 2018 are expected to consist of: (i) asset impairment charges of approximately $0.6 million ; (ii) employee severance and benefit costs of approximately $0.9 million ; (iii) facility and lease termination costs of approximately $1.6 million ; and (iv) contract termination and other restructuring costs of approximately $0.6 million . See Notes 1 and 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2017 Form 10-K for additional information, including the events that led to the restructuring decision. Developments subsequent to March 31, 2018 . For information on events that occurred subsequent to March 31, 2018 , including capital actions and the IRS Matter, see Notes 9 and 14 , respectively. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of Radian Group Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions, and intercompany profits and losses, have been eliminated. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP pursuant to the instructions set forth in Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. We refer to Radian Group Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries as “Radian,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our,” unless the context requires otherwise. We generally refer to Radian Group Inc. alone, without its consolidated subsidiaries, as “Radian Group.” Unless otherwise defined in this report, certain terms and acronyms used throughout this report are defined in the Glossary of Abbreviations and Acronyms included as part of this report. The financial information presented for interim periods is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2017 Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any other period. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. While the amounts included in our condensed consolidated financial statements include our best estimates and assumptions, actual results may vary materially. Other Significant Accounting Policies See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2017 Form 10-K for information regarding other significant accounting policies. There have been no significant changes in our significant accounting policies from those discussed in our 2017 Form 10-K, other than described below, including in “— Revenues ” and “— Recent Accounting Pronouncements—Accounting Standards Adopted during 2018.” Revenue Recognition—Services The FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding revenue recognition, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from our contracts with customers to provide services. We adopted this update effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. The principle of this update requires an entity to recognize revenue representing the transfer of services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those services, recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied. The majority of our revenue-generating transactions are not subject to the new standard as this update did not change revenue recognition principles related to our investments and insurance products, which together represented the majority of our total revenue for the three months ending March 31, 2018 and are subject to other GAAP guidance discussed elsewhere within our disclosures. This update is primarily applicable to revenues from our Services segment. See “—Business Overview— Services ” for information about the services we offer. The table below represents the disaggregation of Services revenues by revenue type: Three Months Ended (In thousands) 2018 2017 Services segment revenue Mortgage Services (1) $ 13,989 $ 18,371 Real Estate Services (1) 17,903 17,014 Title Services 2,274 4,704 Total (2) $ 34,166 $ 40,089 ______________________ (1) 2017 revenues include immaterial amounts of Services revenue related to services that we no longer offer as a result of restructuring our Services business. (2) Includes inter-segment revenues of $1.0 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. See Note 3 for segment information. Our Services segment revenues are recognized over time and measured each period based on the progress to date as services are performed and made available to customers. Our contracts with customers, including payment terms, are generally short-term in nature; therefore, any impact related to timing is immaterial. Revenue recognized related to services made available to customers and billed is reflected in accounts receivables. Revenue recognized related to services performed and not yet billed is recorded in unbilled receivables and reflected in other assets. We have no material bad-debt expense. The following represents balances related to Services contracts as of the dates indicated: (In thousands) March 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 Accounts Receivable - Services Contracts $ 13,236 $ 17,391 Unbilled Receivables - Services Contracts 20,949 22,257 Deferred Revenues - Services Contracts 3,481 3,235 Revenue expected to be recognized in any future period related to remaining performance obligations, such as contracts where revenue is recognized as invoiced and contracts with variable consideration related to undelivered performance obligations, is not material. Fee-for-Service Contracts Generally, our contracts with our clients do not include minimum volume commitments and can be terminated at any time by our clients. Although some of our contracts and assignments are recurring in nature, and include repetitive monthly assignments, a significant portion of our engagements are transactional in nature and may be performed in connection with securitizations, loan sales, loan purchases or other transactions. Due to the transactional nature of our business, our Services segment revenues may fluctuate from period to period as transactions are commenced or completed. We do not recognize revenue or expense related to amounts advanced by us and subsequently reimbursed by clients for maintenance or repairs because we do not take control of the service prior to the client taking control. We record an expense if an advance is made that is not in accordance with a client contract and the client is not obligated to reimburse us. Due to the nature of the services provided, our Services arrangements with customers may include any of the following three basic types of contracts: Fixed-Price Contracts. We use fixed-price contracts in our real estate valuation and component services, our loan review, underwriting and due diligence services as well as our title and closing services. We also use fixed-price contracts in our surveillance business for our servicer oversight services and RMBS surveillance services, and in our asset management business activities. Under fixed-price contracts we agree to perform the specified services and deliverables for a pre-determined per-unit or per-file price or day rate. Each service qualifies as a separate performance obligation and revenue is recognized as the service performed is made available to the client. Time-and-Expense Contracts. The Services segment also derives a portion of its revenue from professional service activities under time-and-expense contracts. In these types of contracts, we are paid a fixed hourly rate, and we are reimbursed for billable out-of-pocket expenses as work is performed. These contracts are used in our loan review, underwriting and due diligence services. Services revenue consisting of billed time fees and pass-through expenses is recorded over time and based on the progress to date as services are performed and made available to customers. Services revenue may also include expenses billed to clients, which includes travel and other out-of-pocket expenses, and other reimbursable expenses. Percentage-of-Sale Contracts. Under percentage-of-sale contracts, we are paid a contractual percentage of the sale proceeds upon the sale of each property. These contracts are only used for a portion of our REO management services and our real estate brokerage services. In addition, through the use of our proprietary technology, property leads are sent to select clients. Revenue attributable to services provided under a percentage-of-sale contract is recognized over time and measured based on the progress to date and typically coincides with the client’s successful closing on the property. The revenue recognized for these transactions is based on a percentage of the sale. In certain instances, fees are received at the time that an asset is assigned to Radian for management. These fees are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized over time based on progress to date and the availability to customers. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Adopted During 2018. In May 2014, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding revenue recognition. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date for this updated standard for public companies to interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and subsequently issued various clarifying updates. Our adoption of this standard, effective January 1, 2018, had no material impact on our financial statements. The disclosures required by this update are included above in “— Revenue Recognition—Services. ” In January 2016, the FASB issued an update that makes certain changes to the standard for the accounting of financial instruments. Among other things, the update requires: (i) equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (ii) the use of the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (iii) separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset; and (iv) separate presentation in other comprehensive income of the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The update also eliminates the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. This update is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. In February 2018, the FASB issued technical corrections related to this update, which addresses common questions regarding the application and adoption of the new guidance and the subsequent amendments. As a result of adopting these updates, equity securities are no longer classified as available for sale securities and changes in fair value are recognized through earnings. Consequently, we recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income representing unrealized losses related to equity securities in the amount of $0.2 million , net of tax. In addition, we elected to utilize net asset value as a practical expedient to measure certain other investments, which resulted in an increase to other invested assets with an offset to retained earnings in the amount of $2.3 million , net of tax . Our adoption of both these updates effective January 1, 2018 resulted in a net adjustment to retained earnings of $2.1 million . See Notes 4 and 5 for additional information. In February 2018, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding income statement reporting of comprehensive income and reclassification of certain tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments in this update allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the TCJA. The provisions of this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, for reporting periods for which financial statements have not been available for issuance. We elected to early adopt this update effective January 1, 2018. As a result we recorded a reclassification adjustment from other comprehensive income to retained earnings in the amount of $2.7 million . See Note 9 for additional information regarding the TCJA. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted. In February 2016, the FASB issued an update that replaces the existing accounting and disclosure requirements for leases of property, plant and equipment. The update requires lessees to recognize, as of the lease commencement date, assets and liabilities for all leases with lease terms of more than 12 months, which is a change from the current GAAP requirement to recognize only capital leases on the balance sheet. Pursuant to the new standard, the liability initially recognized for the lease obligation is equal to the present value of the lease payments not yet made, discounted over the lease term at the implicit interest rate of the lease, if available, or otherwise at the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. The lessee is also required to recognize an asset for its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, based on the liability subject to certain adjustments, such as for initial direct costs. Leases are required to be classified as either operating or finance, with expense on operating leases recorded as a single lease cost on a straight-line basis. For finance leases, interest expense on the lease liability is required to be recognized separately from the straight-line amortization of the right-of-use asset. Quantitative disclosures are required for certain items, including the cost of leases, the weighted-average remaining lease term, the weighted-average discount rate and a maturity analysis of lease liabilities. Additional qualitative disclosures are also required regarding the nature of the leases, such as basis, terms and conditions of: (i) variable interest payments; (ii) extension and termination options; and (iii) residual value guarantees. This update is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted by applying the new guidance as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, using a modified retrospective transition approach with certain optional practical expedients. We are currently evaluating the impact to our financial statements and future disclosures as a result of this update. See Note 13 of our 2017 Form 10-K for additional information about our leases. In June 2016, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. This update requires that financial assets measured at their amortized cost basis be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities are to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses, rather than a write-down of the asset, with the amount of the allowance limited to the amount by which fair value is less than amortized cost. This update is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. This update is not applicable to credit losses associated with our mortgage insurance policies. We are currently evaluating the impact to our financial statements and future disclosures as a result of this update. In March 2017, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding receivables. The new standard requires certain premiums on purchased callable debt securities to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amortization period for callable debt securities purchased at a discount will not be impacted. The provisions of this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. We are currently evaluating the impact to our financial statements and future disclosures as a result of this update. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Net Income Per Share | Net Income Per Share Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, while diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average number of dilutive potential common shares. Dilutive potential common shares relate to our share-based compensation arrangements and our outstanding convertible senior notes. The calculation of basic and diluted net income per share was as follows: Three Months Ended (In thousands, except per-share amounts) 2018 2017 Net income—basic $ 114,486 $ 76,472 Adjustment for dilutive Convertible Senior Notes due 2019, net of tax (1) — (215 ) Net income—diluted $ 114,486 $ 76,257 Average common shares outstanding—basic 215,967 214,925 Dilutive effect of Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 — 701 Dilutive effect of Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 — 1,854 Dilutive effect of share-based compensation arrangements (2) 3,916 4,017 Adjusted average common shares outstanding—diluted 219,883 221,497 Net income per share: Basic $ 0.53 $ 0.36 Diluted $ 0.52 $ 0.34 ______________________ (1) As applicable, includes coupon interest, amortization of discount and fees, and other changes in income that would result from the assumed conversion.

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Reporting | Segment Reporting We have two strategic business units that we manage separately—Mortgage Insurance and Services. Adjusted pretax operating income (loss) for each segment represents segment results on a standalone basis; therefore, inter-segment eliminations and reclassifications required for consolidated GAAP presentation have not been reflected. We allocate to our Mortgage Insurance segment: (i) corporate expenses based on its forecasted annual percentage of total revenue, which approximates the estimated percentage of time spent on the Mortgage Insurance segment; (ii) all interest expense except for interest expense related to an intercompany note with terms consistent with the original issued amount of $300 million from the Senior Notes due 2019 that were used to fund our purchase of Clayton; and (iii) all corporate cash and investments. We allocate to our Services segment: (i) corporate expenses based on its forecasted annual percentage of total revenue, which approximates the estimated percentage of time spent on the Services segment and (ii) as noted above, allocated interest expense. No material corporate cash or investments are allocated to the Services segment. Inter-segment activities are recorded at market rates for segment reporting and eliminated in consolidation. Contract underwriting activities are reported within our Services segment. We include underwriting-related expenses for mortgage insurance, based on a pro-rata volume of mortgage applications excluding third-party contract underwriting services, in our Mortgage Insurance segment’s other operating expenses before corporate allocations. We include underwriting-related expenses for third-party contract underwriting services, based on a pro-rata volume of mortgage applications, in our Services segment’s cost of services and other operating expenses before corporate allocations, as applicable. Adjusted Pretax Operating Income (Loss) Our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Radian’s chief operating decision maker), uses adjusted pretax operating income (loss) as our primary measure to evaluate the fundamental financial performance of each of Radian’s business segments and to allocate resources to the segments. Adjusted pretax operating income (loss) is defined as pretax income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the effects of net gains (losses) on investments and other financial instruments, loss on induced conversion and debt extinguishment, acquisition-related expenses, amortization or impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, and net impairment losses recognized in earnings and losses from the sale of lines of business. Although adjusted pretax operating income excludes certain items that have occurred in the past and are expected to occur in the future, the excluded items represent those that are: (i) not viewed as part of the operating performance of our primary activities or (ii) not expected to result in an economic impact equal to the amount reflected in pretax income. These adjustments, along with the reasons for their treatment, are described below. (1) Net gains (losses) on investments and other financial instruments. The recognition of realized investment gains or losses can vary significantly across periods as the activity is highly discretionary based on the timing of individual securities sales due to such factors as market opportunities, our tax and capital profile and overall market cycles. Unrealized investment gains and losses arise primarily from changes in the market value of our investments that are classified as trading or equity securities. These valuation adjustments may not necessarily result in realized economic gains or losses. Trends in the profitability of our fundamental operating activities can be more clearly identified without the fluctuations of these realized and unrealized gains or losses. We do not view them to be indicative of our fundamental operating activities. Therefore, these items are excluded from our calculation of adjusted pretax operating income (loss). (2) Loss on induced conversion and debt extinguishment. Gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt and losses incurred to purchase our convertible debt prior to maturity are discretionary activities that are undertaken in order to take advantage of market opportunities to strengthen our financial and capital positions; therefore, we do not view these activities as part of our operating performance. Such transactions do not reflect expected future operations and do not provide meaningful insight regarding our current or past operating trends. Therefore, these items are excluded from our calculation of adjusted pretax operating income (loss). (3) Acquisition-related expenses. Acquisition-related expenses represent the costs incurred to effect an acquisition of a business (i.e., a business combination). Because we pursue acquisitions on a strategic and selective basis and not in the ordinary course of our business, we do not view acquisition-related expenses as a consequence of a primary business activity. Therefore, we do not consider these expenses to be part of our operating performance and they are excluded from our calculation of adjusted pretax operating income (loss). (4) Amortization or impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets represents the periodic expense required to amortize the cost of intangible assets over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are also periodically reviewed for potential impairment, and impairment adjustments are made whenever appropriate. These charges are not viewed as part of the operating performance of our primary activities and therefore are excluded from our calculation of adjusted pretax operating income (loss). (5) Net impairment losses recognized in earnings and losses from the sale of lines of business . The recognition of net impairment losses on investments and the impairment of other long-lived assets does not result in a cash payment and can vary significantly in both amount and frequency, depending on market credit cycles and other factors. Losses from the sale of lines of business are highly discretionary as a result of strategic restructuring decisions, and generally do not occur in the normal course of our business. We do not view these losses to be indicative of our fundamental operating activities. Therefore, whenever these losses occur, we exclude them from our calculation of adjusted pretax operating income (loss). Summarized operating results for our segments for the periods indicated, are as follows: Three Months Ended (In thousands) 2018 2017 Mortgage Insurance Net premiums written—insurance (1) $ 237,980 $ 224,665 (Increase) decrease in unearned premiums 4,570 (2,865 ) Net premiums earned—insurance 242,550 221,800 Net investment income 33,956 31,032 Other income 807 746 Total (2) 277,313 253,578 Provision for losses 37,391 47,232 Policy acquisition costs 7,117 6,729 Other operating expenses before corporate allocations 31,888 39,289 Total (3) 76,396 93,250 Adjusted pretax operating income before corporate allocations 200,917 160,328 Allocation of corporate operating expenses 18,577 14,186 Allocation of interest expense 10,629 11,509 Adjusted pretax operating income $ 171,711 $ 134,633 ______________________ (1) Net of ceded premiums written under the QSR Transactions and the Single Premium QSR Transactions.

(2) Acquisition-related expenses represent expenses incurred to effect the acquisition of a business, net of adjustments to accruals previously recorded for acquisition expenses. (3) Included within restructuring and other exit costs. See Note 1. On a consolidated basis, “adjusted pretax operating income” is a measure not determined in accordance with GAAP. Total adjusted pretax operating income is not a measure of total profitability, and therefore should not be considered in isolation or viewed as a substitute for GAAP pretax income. Our definition of adjusted pretax operating income may not be comparable to similarly-named measures reported by other companies. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments Available for sale securities, trading securities, equity securities and certain other assets are recorded at fair value. All changes in the fair value of trading securities, equity securities and certain other assets are included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. All changes in the fair value of available for sale securities are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. As a result of our implementation of the update to the standard for the accounting of financial instruments, we elected to measure certain other investments using the net asset value as a practical expedient. See Note 1 “—Significant Accounting Policies— Recent Accounting Pronouncements — Accounting Standards Adopted During 2018 ” for additional information. There were no other changes to our fair value methodologies during the three months ended March 31, 2018 . In accordance with GAAP, we established a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level I measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level III measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined below: Level I — Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; Level II — Prices or valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; and Level III — Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Level III inputs are used to measure fair value only to the extent that observable inputs are not available. The level of market activity used to determine the fair value hierarchy is based on the availability of observable inputs market participants would use to price an asset or a liability, including market value price observations. We provide a qualitative description of the valuation techniques and inputs used for recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements in our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2017 Form 10-K. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2017 Form 10-K. The following is a list of assets that are measured at fair value by hierarchy level as of March 31, 2018 : (In thousands) Level I Level II Total Assets at Fair Value Investment Portfolio: U.S. government and agency securities $ 154,347 $ 7,890 $ 162,237 State and municipal obligations — 372,465 372,465 Money market instruments 144,207 — 144,207 Corporate bonds and notes — 2,298,885 2,298,885 RMBS — 254,124 254,124 CMBS — 520,468 520,468 Other ABS — 736,518 736,518 Foreign government and agency securities — 36,576 36,576 Equity securities 136,159 1,882 138,041 Other investments (1) — 45,774 45,774 Total Investments at Fair Value (2) 434,713 4,274,582 4,709,295 (3) Total Assets at Fair Value $ 434,713 $ 4,274,582 $ 4,709,295 (3) ______________________ (1) Comprising short-term certificates of deposit and commercial paper.

Other declines in fair value (for example, due to interest rate changes, sector credit rating changes or company-specific rating changes) that result in a conclusion that the present value of cash flows expected to be collected will not be sufficient to recover the amortized cost basis of the security also may serve as a basis to conclude that an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. To the extent we determine that a security is deemed to have had an other-than-temporary impairment, an impairment loss is recognized. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we recorded other-than-temporary impairment losses in earnings of $0.9 million due to our intent to sell certain corporate and state and municipal bonds at a loss. For the year ended December 31, 2017 , we recorded other-than-temporary impairment losses in earnings of $1.4 million . These losses comprised $0.4 million recorded due to our intent to sell certain corporate bonds at a loss and $1.0 million recorded due to credit deterioration, which included $0.5 million related to a convertible note of a non-public company issuer included in debt securities and $0.5 million related to a privately-placed equity security. There were no credit-related impairment losses recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) during the three months ended March 31, 2018 or year ended December 31, 2017 . Although we held securities in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2018 , we did not consider those securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of such date. For all investment categories, the unrealized losses of 12 months or greater duration as of March 31, 2018 were generally caused by interest rate or credit spread movements since the purchase date, and as such, we expect the present value of cash flows to be collected from these securities to be sufficient to recover the amortized cost basis of these securities. As of March 31, 2018 , we did not have the intent to sell any debt securities in an unrealized loss position, and we determined that it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of their cost basis, which may be at maturity; therefore, we did not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2018 . Trading Securities The trading securities within our investment portfolio, which are recorded at fair value, consisted of the following as of the dates indicated: (In thousands) March 31, December 31, Trading securities: State and municipal obligations $ 203,188 $ 214,841 Corporate bonds and notes 280,323 307,271 RMBS 26,084 29,520 CMBS 49,634 50,561 Foreign government and agency securities 4,180 4,241 Total (1) $ 563,409 $ 606,434 ______________________ (1) Includes a de minimis amount of loaned securities under securities lending agreements that are classified as other assets in our consolidated balance sheets, as further described below. For trading securities held at March 31, 2018 , we had net unrealized losses associated with those securities of $11.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 , compared to net unrealized gains of $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . For equity securities held at March 31, 2018 , we had net losses of $1.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 . Prior to the implementation of the update to the standard for the accounting of financial instruments effective January 1, 2018, the unrealized losses associated with equity securities were classified in accumulated other comprehensive income. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we did not transfer any securities from the available for sale or trading categories. Securities Lending Agreements During the third quarter of 2017, we commenced participation in a securities lending program whereby we loan certain securities in our investment portfolio to Borrowers for short periods of time. These securities lending agreements are collateralized financing arrangements whereby we transfer securities to third parties through an intermediary in exchange for cash or other securities. In all of our securities lending agreements, the securities we transfer to Borrowers (loaned securities) may be transferred or loaned by the Borrowers; however, we maintain effective control over all loaned securities, including: (i) retaining ownership of the securities; (ii) receiving the related investment or other income; and (iii) having the right to request the return of the loaned securities at any time. Although we report such securities at fair value within other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, the detailed information regarding investments provided in this Note includes these securities. Under our securities lending agreements, the Borrower is required to provide to us collateral, consisting of cash or securities, in amounts generally equal to or exceeding (i) 102% of the value of the loaned securities ( 105% in the case of foreign securities) or (ii) another agreed-upon percentage not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities. Any cash collateral we receive may be invested in liquid assets. The Borrower generally may return the loaned securities to us at any time, which would require us to return the collateral within the standard settlement period for the loaned securities on the principal exchange or market in which the securities are traded. We manage this liquidity risk associated with cash collateral by maintaining the cash collateral in a short-term money-market fund with daily availability. The credit risk under these programs is reduced by the amounts of collateral received. On a daily basis, the value of the underlying securities that we have loaned to the Borrowers is compared to the value of cash and securities collateral we received from the Borrowers, and additional cash or securities are requested or returned, as applicable. In addition, we are indemnified against counterparty credit risk by the intermediary. Key components of our securities lending agreements at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 consisted of the following: (In thousands) March 31, December 31, Loaned securities (1) : U.S. government and agency securities $ 975 $ — Corporate bonds and notes 15,508 13,862 Foreign government and agency securities 904 867 Equity securities 27,009 13,235 Total loaned securities, at fair value $ 44,396 $ 27,964 Total loaned securities, at amortized cost $ 45,266 $ 27,846 Securities collateral on deposit from Borrowers (2) 6,345 9,342 Reinvested cash collateral, at estimated fair value (3) 39,077 19,357 ______________________ (1) Our securities loaned under securities lending agreements are reported at fair value within other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. All of our securities lending agreements are classified as overnight and revolving. None of the amounts are subject to offsetting. (2) Securities collateral on deposit with us from Borrowers may not be transferred or re-pledged unless the Borrower is in default, and is therefore not reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements. (3) All cash collateral received has been reinvested in accordance with the securities lending agreements and is included in short-term investments in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts payable on the return of cash collateral under securities lending agreements are included within other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Net Gains (Losses) on Investments and Other Financial Instruments Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments and other financial instruments consisted of: Three Months Ended March 31, (In thousands) 2018 2017 Net realized gains (losses): Fixed-maturities available for sale $ (3,120 ) $ (2,509 ) Equity securities 142 — Trading securities (538 ) (5,694 ) Short-term investments — 6 Other invested assets 62 — Other gains (losses) 12 18 Net realized gains (losses) on investments (3,442 ) (8,179 ) Other-than-temporary impairment losses (844 ) — Unrealized gains (losses) on investment securities (1) (12,804 ) 5,226 Total net gains (losses) on investments (17,090 ) (2,953 ) Net gains (losses) on other financial instruments (1,797 ) 102 Net gains (losses) on investments and other financial instruments $ (18,887 ) $ (2,851 ) ______________________ (1) These amounts include unrealized gains (losses) on investment securities other than securities available for sale. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the amount excludes the net change in unrealized gains and losses on equity securities. Prior to the implementation of the update to the standard for the accounting of financial instruments effective January 1, 2018, the unrealized losses associated with equity securities were classified in accumulated other comprehensive income. Contractual Maturities The contractual maturities of fixed-maturity investments available for sale were as follows: March 31, 2018 Available for Sale (In thousands) Amortized Cost Fair Value Due in one year or less (1) $ 35,241 $ 35,146 Due after one year through five years (1) 745,894 735,622 Due after five years through 10 years (1) 1,016,043 989,756 Due after 10 years (1) 368,170 375,974 RMBS (2) 233,144 228,040 CMBS (2) 476,601 470,834 Other ABS (2) 736,967 736,518 Total (3) $ 3,612,060 $ 3,571,890 ______________________ (1) Actual maturities may differ as a result of calls before scheduled maturity. (2) RMBS, CMBS and Other ABS are shown separately, as they are not due at a single maturity date. (3) Includes securities loaned under securities lending agreements. Other At March 31, 2018 , Radian had an aggregate amount of $28.1 million of U.S. government and agency securities and RMBS, classified as fixed-maturities available for sale within our investment securities portfolio, serving as collateral for our FHLB advances. There were no FHLB advances outstanding at December 31, 2017 . See Note 12 for additional information. Securities on deposit with various state insurance commissioners amounted to $14.9 million and $11.8 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. |

Goodwill is deemed to have an indefinite useful life and is subject to review for impairment annually, or more frequently, whenever events and circumstances indicate potential impairment. For purposes of performing our goodwill impairment test, we have concluded that the Services segment constitutes one reporting unit to which all of our recorded goodwill is related. For additional information on our accounting policies for goodwill and other intangible assets, see Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2017 Form 10-K.

Single Premium QSR Transactions In the first quarter of 2016, Radian Guaranty entered into the 2016 Single Premium QSR Transaction with a panel of third-party reinsurers. Effective December 31, 2017, we amended the 2016 Single Premium QSR Transaction to increase the amount of ceded risk on performing loans under the agreement from 35% to 65% for the 2015 through 2017 vintages. As of the effective date, the result of this amendment increases the amount of risk ceded on Single Premium Policies, including for the purposes of calculating any future ceding commissions and profit commissions that Radian Guaranty will earn. It will also increase the future amounts of our ceded premiums and ceded losses. As of January 1, 2018, Radian Guaranty is no longer ceding NIW under this transaction. RIF ceded under the 2016 Single Premium QSR Transaction was $6.8 billion and $3.9 billion as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. In October 2017, we entered into the 2018 Single Premium QSR Transaction with a panel of third-party reinsurers. Under the 2018 Single Premium QSR Transaction, we expect to cede 65% of our Single Premium NIW beginning with the business written in January 2018, subject to certain conditions that may affect the amount ceded. RIF ceded under the 2018 Single Premium QSR Transaction was $0.4 billion as of March 31, 2018 . QSR Transactions In 2012, Radian Guaranty entered into the QSR Transactions with a third-party reinsurance provider. Radian Guaranty has ceded the maximum amount permitted under the QSR Transactions and is no longer ceding NIW under these transactions. RIF ceded under the QSR Transactions was $1.1 billion and $1.5 billion as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes For additional information on our income taxes, including our accounting policies and the TCJA, see Notes 1 and 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2017 Form 10-K. Because the TCJA was passed late in the fourth quarter of 2017 and ongoing guidance and accounting interpretation is expected throughout 2018, as of December 31, 2017, we made provisional estimates for the effects of the TCJA in accordance with SAB 118. These provisional estimates primarily related to NOLs, loss reserves, tax depreciation, share-based compensation and state taxes. We expect to complete our analysis of all deferred tax balances by December 2018. As of March 31, 2018, we have not recorded any measurement period adjustments in accordance with SAB 118 to change our provisional amounts that were recorded as of December 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2018 , for federal income tax purposes and before any consideration of the impact of our potential IRS Settlement, we have generated certain tax attributes, including approximately $8.4 million of federal NOL carryforwards. We currently expect to utilize the majority of our federal NOL carryforwards during 2018, and the remainder before their expiration. Approximately $2.3 million of our federal NOL carryforwards were received as part of the acquisition of EnTitle Direct and, as such, their annual utilization amount is limited. However, we still expect to fully utilize these NOLs prior to their expiration in tax years 2027 through 2037. We also have research and development tax credit carryforwards of $6.8 million that, if not utilized, will expire during tax years 2031 through 2038. Additionally, we had approximately $57.1 million of AMT credit carryforwards, which are expected to be fully utilized or refunded in the near term. We are required to establish a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. At each balance sheet date, we assess our need for a valuation allowance and our assessment is based on all available evidence, both positive and negative. This requires management to exercise judgment and make assumptions regarding whether our deferred tax assets will be realized in future periods. In making this assessment as of March 31, 2018 , we determined that certain of our subsidiaries within Radian may continue to generate taxable losses on a separate company basis in the near term and may not be able to fully utilize certain of their state and local NOLs on their state and local tax returns. As of March 31, 2018 , our valuation allowance is $64.4 million , which relates primarily to these separate company NOLs and other state tax timing adjustments. We are contesting adjustments resulting from the examination by the IRS of our 2000 through 2007 consolidated federal income tax returns. The IRS opposes the recognition of certain tax losses and deductions that were generated through our investment in a portfolio of non-economic REMIC residual interests and has proposed denying the associated tax benefits of these items. We appealed these proposed adjustments to the Internal Revenue Service Office of Appeals and made “qualified deposits” with the U.S. Treasury of $85 million in June 2008 relating to the 2000 through 2004 tax years and $4 million in May 2010 relating to the 2005 through 2007 tax years, in order to avoid the accrual of incremental above-market-rate interest with respect to the proposed adjustments. We attempted to reach a compromised settlement with the Internal Revenue Service Office of Appeals, but in September 2014 we received Notices of Deficiency covering the 2000 through 2007 tax years that assert unpaid taxes and penalties of $157 million . The Deficiency Amount has not been reduced to reflect our NOL carryback ability. On December 3, 2014, we petitioned the U.S. Tax Court to litigate the Deficiency Amount. On September 1, 2015, we received a notice that the case had been scheduled for trial. However, the parties jointly filed, and the U.S. Tax Court approved, motions for continuance in this matter to postpone the trial date. Also, in February 2016, the U.S. Tax Court approved a joint motion to consolidate for trial, briefing and opinion our case with a similar case involving MGIC Investment Corporation. During 2016, we held several meetings with the IRS in an attempt to reach a settlement on the issues presented in our dispute. In October 2017, the parties informed the U.S. Tax Court that they believed they had reached agreement in principle on all issues in the dispute. In November 2017, as required by law, the agreement was reported to the JCT for review. In April 2018, we were notified that the JCT had no objection to the terms of the settlement agreement and that the IRS is working toward finalizing the settlement, which we now expect to occur within the next several months. While the expected impact of the final settlement will reduce our available holding company liquidity by approximately $35 million, during the second quarter of 2018 we expect to recognize a net positive impact to tax expense of approximately $30 million. This estimated benefit is primarily related to the lower than expected interest accrued on the tax deficiency and the impact of the remeasurement of our deferred taxes due to the enactment of the TCJA during the fourth quarter of 2017. This estimated benefit amount does not include any potential related benefit from the impact on our state or local uncertain tax positions. However, over the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that we could record a material reduction to these liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits. We expect to complete the IRS settlement in the coming months. However, if the settlement is not completed, then the ongoing litigation could take several years to resolve and may result in substantial legal expenses. We can provide no assurance regarding the outcome of any such litigation or whether a settlement with the IRS will ultimately be reached. If we are unable to complete the settlement, or the ultimate resolution of this matter produces a result that differs materially from our current expectations, there could be a materially different impact than we currently expect on our effective tax rate, results of operations and cash flows. |

See Note 7 for additional information. (2) Related to underlying defaulted loans with a most recent default notice dated in the year indicated. For example, if a loan had defaulted in a prior year, but then subsequently cured and later re-defaulted in the current year, that default would be considered a current year default. Reserve Activity First Quarter 2018 Activity Our mortgage insurance loss reserves at March 31, 2018 declined as compared to December 31, 2017 , primarily as a result of the amount of paid claims continuing to outpace losses incurred related to new default notices reported in the current year. Reserves established for new default notices were the primary driver of our total incurred loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018 , and they were primarily impacted by the number of new primary default notices received in the period and our related gross Default to Claim Rate assumption applied to those new defaults, which, except as discussed below for FEMA Designated Areas associated with Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, was approximately 9% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . This assumed rate reflects seasonal patterns as well as a continuation of a general improvement in cure rates. Historically, new defaults reported in the first quarter have cured at higher rates than subsequent quarters, and we considered this pattern in developing the estimate for the quarter. The net effect of changes in reserve estimates for defaults reported in prior years was not material for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . During the third quarter of 2017, Hurricanes Harvey and Irma caused extensive property damage to areas of Texas, Florida and Georgia, as well as other general disruptions including power outages and flooding. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , our total primary mortgage insurance exposure to mortgages in counties affected by these storms and subsequently designated as FEMA Designated Areas was approximately $4.7 billion and $4.6 billion of RIF, respectively, on approximately $17.9 billion and $17.4 billion of IIF, respectively. This exposure represents approximately 9% of our primary RIF as of both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 . Although the mortgage insurance we write protects the lenders from a portion of losses resulting from loan defaults, it does not provide protection against property loss or physical damage. Our Master Policies contain an exclusion against physical damage, including damage caused by floods or other natural disasters. Depending on the policy form and circumstances, we may, among other things, deduct the cost to repair or remedy physical damage above a de minimis amount from a claim payment and/or, under certain circumstances, deny a claim where (i) the property underlying a mortgage in default is subject to unrestored physical damage or (ii) the physical damage is deemed to be the principal cause of default. While we observed an increase in new primary defaults from FEMA Designated Areas associated with Hurricanes Harvey and Irma following those two natural disasters, we expect most of these to cure by the end of 2018, and at higher cure rates than the rates of our general population of defaults. We therefore assigned a 3% Default to Claim Rate assumption to the new primary defaults from FEMA Designated Areas associated with Hurricanes Harvey and Irma that were reported subsequent to those two natural disasters and through February 2018. These incremental defaults did not have a material impact on our provision for losses as of March 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017 . However, the future reserve impact may be affected by various factors, including the pace of economic recovery in the FEMA Designated Areas. Total claims paid decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2018 , compared to the same period in 2017 , consistent with the ongoing decline in the outstanding default inventory. First Quarter 2017 Activity Our mortgage insurance loss reserves at March 31, 2017 declined as compared to December 31, 2016, primarily as a result of the amount of paid claims outpacing losses incurred related to new default notices reported in the current year. Reserves established for new default notices were the primary driver of our total incurred loss for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and they were primarily impacted by the number of new primary default notices received in the period and our related gross Default to Claim Rate assumption applied to those new defaults, which was 11.5% as of March 31, 2017. The provision for losses during the first three months of 2017 was positively impacted by favorable reserve development on prior year defaults, which was primarily driven by a reduction during the period in certain Default to Claim Rate assumptions for these prior year defaults compared to those used at December 31, 2016. The reductions in Default to Claim Rate assumptions primarily resulted from observed trends, including higher Cures than were previously estimated. The positive development in prior year defaults was partially offset by a decrease in estimated rates of future Loss Mitigation Activities compared to those used at December 31, 2016. Total claims paid decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, consistent with the ongoing decline in the outstanding default inventory. Reserve Assumptions Default to Claim Rate Our aggregate weighted-average Default to Claim Rate assumption (net of Claim Denials and Rescissions) used in estimating our primary reserve for losses was 33% at March 31, 2018 , compared to 31% at December 31, 2017 . The increase in our Default to Claim Rate in the first three months of 2018 primarily resulted from a decrease in the proportion of defaults that have missed three payments or less, which generally have a lower assumed net Default to Claim Rate. This decrease in the proportion of defaults that missed three payments or less was partially offset by: (i) the lower Default to Claim Rate of 3% on new primary defaults in FEMA Designated Areas associated with Hurricanes Harvey and Irma subsequent to those two natural disasters through February 2018 and (ii) a decrease in the assumed gross Default to Claim Rate for new primary defaults that were not located in FEMA Designated Areas associated with Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, from 10.0% at December 31, 2017 to approximately 9% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . As of March 31, 2018 , with the exception of new primary defaults in FEMA Designated Areas associated with Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, our gross Default to Claim Rate assumptions on our primary portfolio ranged from approximately 9% for new defaults, up to 68% for defaults not in foreclosure stage, and 75% for Foreclosure Stage Defaults. Our Default to Claim Rate estimates on defaulted loans are mainly developed based on the Stage of Default and Time in Default of the underlying defaulted loans grouped according to the period in which the default occurred, as measured by the progress toward foreclosure sale and the number of months in default. Our estimate of expected Rescissions and Claim Denials (net of expected Reinstatements) embedded in our estimated Default to Claim Rate is generally based on our recent experience. Consideration is also given to any differences in characteristics between those rescinded policies and denied claims and the loans remaining in our defaulted inventory, as well as the estimated impact of the BofA Settlement Agreement. Loss Mitigation Although our estimates of future Loss Mitigation Activities have been declining, they remain elevated compared to levels experienced before 2009. The elevated levels of our rate of Rescissions, Claim Denials and Claim Curtailments have significantly reduced our paid losses and have resulted in a reduction in our loss reserve. Our estimate of net future Loss Mitigation Activities reduced our loss reserves as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 by approximately $19 million and $21 million , respectively. The amount of estimated Loss Mitigation Activities incorporated into our reserve analysis at any point in time is affected by a number of factors, including not only our estimated rate of Rescissions, Claim Denials and Claim Curtailments on future claims, but also the volume and attributes of our defaulted insured loans, our estimated Default to Claim Rate and our estimated Claim Severity, among other assumptions. As our Legacy Portfolio has become a smaller percentage of our overall insured portfolio, we have undertaken a reduced amount of Loss Mitigation Activity with respect to the claims we receive, and we expect this trend to continue. As a result, our future Loss Mitigation Activity is not expected to mitigate our paid losses to the same extent as in recent years. Our reported Rescission, Claim Denial and Claim Curtailment activity in any given period is subject to challenge by our lender and servicer customers. We expect that a portion of previous Rescissions will be reinstated and previous Claim Denials will be resubmitted with the required documentation and ultimately paid; therefore, we have incorporated this expectation into our IBNR reserve estimate. Our IBNR reserve estimate of $9.1 million and $10.4 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively, includes reserves for this activity. We also accrue for the premiums that we expect to refund to our lender customers in connection with our estimated Rescissions. |

Other Liabilities Disclosure [Text Block] | Other Liabilities The following table shows the components of other liabilities as of the dates indicated: (In thousands) March 31, December 31, Current federal income taxes $ 133,500 $ 96,740 Deferred ceding commission 89,710 89,907 Amount payable on the return of cash collateral under securities lending agreements 39,077 19,357 Accrued compensation 32,069 67,687 FHLB advances 25,550 — Other 92,887 80,154 Total other liabilities $ 412,793 $ 353,845 FHLB Advances In August 2016, Radian Guaranty and Radian Reinsurance became members of the FHLB. As members, they may borrow from the FHLB, subject to certain conditions, which include the need to post collateral and the requirement to maintain a minimum investment in FHLB stock, in part depending on the level of their outstanding FHLB advances. These FHLB advances may be used to provide low-cost, supplemental liquidity for various purposes, including to fund incremental investments. As of March 31, 2018 , we had $25.6 million of fixed-rate advances outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 2.08% . Interest on the FHLB advances is payable quarterly, or at maturity if the term of the advance is less than 90 days. As of March 31, 2018 , $19.0 million of the FHLB advances mature in 2018 and $6.6 million mature in 2019. Principal is due at maturity. For obligations with maturities greater than or equal to 90 days, we may prepay the debt at any time, subject to a prepayment fee calculation. The FHLB advances are required to be collateralized by eligible assets whose market value must be maintained at a minimum of approximately 103% to 105% of the principal balance of the FHLB advances, based on the eligible collateral we have provided at March 31, 2018 , which consisted of an aggregate amount of $28.1 million in U.S. government and agency securities and RMBS from fixed-maturities available for sale within our investment securities portfolio. Amount Payable on the Return of Cash Collateral under Securities Lending Agreements We participate in a securities lending program whereby we loan certain securities in our investment portfolio to Borrowers for short periods of time. These securities lending agreements, whereby we transfer securities to third parties through an intermediary in exchange for cash or other securities, are considered collateralized financing arrangements. Amounts payable on the return of cash collateral under securities lending agreements are classified as other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 5 for additional information. Revolving Credit Facility On October 16, 2017, Radian Group entered into a three-year, $225 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of bank lenders. Terms of the credit facility include an option to increase the amount during the term of the agreement, subject to our obtaining the necessary increased commitments from the lenders, up to a total of $300 million . Borrowings under the credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, capital contributions to Radian Group’s insurance and reinsurance subsidiaries as well as growth initiatives. The credit facility contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions. Our ability to borrow under the credit facility is conditioned on the satisfaction of certain financial and other covenants, including covenants related to minimum net worth and statutory surplus, a maximum debt-to-capitalization level, limits on certain types of indebtedness and liens, minimum liquidity levels and Radian Guaranty’s eligibility as a private mortgage insurer with the GSEs. See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2017 Form 10-K. At March 31, 2018 , Radian Group was in compliance with all the covenants, although there were no amounts outstanding under this revolving credit facility. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2017 Form 10-K for information regarding our accounting policies for contingencies. We are routinely involved in a number of legal actions and proceedings, including litigation and other disputes arising in the ordinary course of our business. The legal and regulatory matters discussed below and in our 2017 Form 10-K could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, injunctions, restitutions or other relief that could require significant expenditures or have other effects on our business. Management believes, based on current knowledge and after consultation with counsel, that the outcome of such actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition. However, the outcome of litigation and other legal and regulatory matters and proceedings is inherently uncertain, and it is possible that one or more of the matters currently pending or threatened could have an unanticipated adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations for any particular period. As described in Note 9 , on September 4, 2014, we received formal Notices of Deficiency from the IRS related to certain tax losses and deductions resulting from our investment in a portfolio of non-economic REMIC residual interests. If the ultimate resolution of this matter produces a result that differs materially from our current expectations, there could be a materially different impact than we currently expect on our effective tax rate, results of operations and cash flows. Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC and Homeward Residential, Inc. (collectively, “Ocwen”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against Radian Guaranty (the “Complaint”) alleging breach of contract and bad faith claims and seeking monetary damages and declaratory relief. Ocwen has also initiated similar legal proceedings against several other mortgage insurers. On December 17, 2016, Ocwen separately filed a parallel arbitration petition against Radian Guaranty before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) asserting substantially the same allegations (the “Arbitration”). Ocwen’s filings together listed 9,420 mortgage insurance certificates issued under multiple insurance policies, including pool insurance policies, as subject to the dispute. On June 5, 2017, Ocwen filed an amended complaint and an amended petition (collectively, the “Amended Filings”) with both the court and the AAA, respectively, together listing 8,870 certificates as subject to the dispute. In December 2017 and January 2018, Ocwen and Radian Guaranty filed motions for partial summary judgment on a small number of bellwether certificates selected from the certificates subject to the court proceedings (“Bellwether Certificates”). On February 1, 2018, the trial judge issued an Order and Memorandum decision granting in part and denying in part both parties’ motions for partial summary judgment (subsequently clarified by Orders of March 5 and 29, 2018), and ordering the parties to proceed to trial on certain claims regarding a portion of the Bellwether Certificates. On April 11, 2018, the parties entered into a confidential agreement with respect to all certificates subject to the dispute. The confidential agreement resolved certain categories of claims involved in the dispute and, on April 12, 2018, the parties filed a stipulation of voluntary dismissal of the federal court proceeding and the trial judge issued an Order dismissing all claims and counterclaims subject to the parties’ agreement. Radian Guaranty was not required to make any payment in connection with this confidential agreement. Pursuant to the confidential agreement, the parties: (1) dismissed the federal court proceeding; (2) narrowed the scope of the dispute to Ocwen’s breach of contract claims seeking payment of insurance benefits on approximately 2,500 certificates that Ocwen was previously pursuing through the Amended Filings; and (3) agreed to resolve the remaining dispute through the Arbitration. Radian Guaranty believes that Ocwen’s allegations and claims in the legal proceedings described above are without merit and legally deficient, and plans to defend these claims vigorously. We are not able to estimate a reasonably possible loss, if any, or range of loss in this matter because of the preliminary stage of the Arbitration. We also are periodically subject to reviews and audits, as well as inquiries, information-gathering requests and investigations. In connection with these matters, from time to time we receive requests and subpoenas seeking information and documents related to aspects of our business. In March 2017, Green River Capital, a subsidiary of Clayton, received a letter from the staff of the SEC stating that it is conducting an investigation captioned, “In the Matter of Certain Single Family Rental Securitizations,” and that it is requesting information from market participants. The letter requested that Green River Capital provide information regarding broker price opinions that Green River Capital provided on properties included in SFR securitization transactions. Green River Capital is cooperating with the SEC. Our Master Policies establish the timeline within which any suit or action arising from any right of an insured under the policy generally must be commenced. In general, any suit or action arising from any right of an insured under the policy must be commenced within two years after such right first arose for primary insurance and within three years for certain other policies, including certain Pool Insurance policies. Although we believe that our Loss Mitigation Activities are justified under our policies, from time to time we face challenges from certain lender and servicer customers regarding our Loss Mitigation Activities, which have resulted in some reversals of our decisions regarding Rescissions, Claim Denials or Claim Curtailments. We are currently in discussions with these customers regarding our Loss Mitigation Activities and claim payment practices, which if not resolved, could result in arbitration or judicial proceedings and we may need to reassume the risk on, and increase loss reserves for, the associated policies or pay additional claims. See Note 10 for additional information. Further, there are loans in our total defaulted portfolio (in particular, our older defaulted portfolio) for which actions or proceedings (such as foreclosure, which provide the insured with title to the property) may not have been commenced within the outermost deadline in our Prior Master Policy. We are evaluating these loans regarding this potential violation and our corresponding rights under the Prior Master Policy. While we can provide no assurance regarding the ultimate resolution of these issues, it is possible that arbitration or legal proceedings could result. Other Securities regulations became effective in 2005 that impose enhanced disclosure requirements on issuers of ABS (including mortgage-backed securities). To allow our customers to comply with these regulations at that time, we typically were required, depending on the amount of credit enhancement we were providing, to provide: (i) audited financial statements for the insurance subsidiary participating in the transaction or (ii) a full and unconditional holding company-level guarantee for our insurance subsidiaries’ obligations in such transactions. Radian Group has guaranteed two structured transactions for Radian Guaranty involving $94.6 million of remaining credit exposure as of March 31, 2018 . |

Equity [Abstract] | |
Stockholders' Equity Note Disclosure [Text Block] | Capital Stock Share Repurchase Program On August 9, 2017, Radian Group’s board of directors renewed the Company’s share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $50 million of its common stock. The current authorization allows the Company to repurchase Radian Group common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, based on market and business conditions, stock price and other factors. Radian operates this program pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , 531,013 shares were purchased at an average price of $18.84 per share, including commissions. At March 31, 2018 , purchase authority of up to $40.0 million remained available under this program, which expires on July 31, 2018. During April 2018, the Company purchased 924,720 shares of its common stock under its share repurchase program at an average price of $16.24 per share, including commissions. At April 30, 2018, purchase authority of up to a maximum of $25 million remained available under this program, which, based on current market conditions, we expect to fully utilize before the program expires. Other Purchases We may purchase shares on the open market to settle stock options exercised by employees and purchases under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In addition, upon the vesting of certain restricted stock awards under our equity compensation plans, we may withhold from such vested awards shares of our common stock to satisfy the tax liability of the award recipients. |

Supplementary Insurance Information [Abstract] | |
Statutory Information | Statutory Information We prepare our statutory financial statements in accordance with the accounting practices required or permitted, if applicable, by the insurance departments of the respective states of domicile of our insurance subsidiaries. Required SAPP are established by a variety of NAIC publications, as well as state laws, regulations and general administrative rules. In addition, insurance departments have the right to permit other specific practices that may deviate from prescribed practices. As of March 31, 2018 , we did not have any prescribed or permitted statutory accounting practices that resulted in reported statutory surplus or risk-based capital being different from what would have been reported had NAIC statutory accounting practices been followed. State insurance regulations include various capital requirements and dividend restrictions based on our insurance subsidiaries’ statutory financial position and results of operations, as described below. Failure to maintain adequate levels of capital could lead to intervention by the various insurance regulatory authorities, which could materially and adversely affect our business, business prospects and financial condition. As of March 31, 2018 , the amount of restricted net assets held by our consolidated insurance subsidiaries (which represents our equity investment in those insurance subsidiaries) totaled $3.6 billion of our consolidated net assets. Under state insurance regulations, Radian Guaranty is required to maintain minimum surplus levels and, in certain states, a minimum ratio of statutory capital relative to the level of net RIF, or Risk-to-capital. There are 16 RBC States that currently impose a Statutory RBC Requirement. The most common Statutory RBC Requirement is that a mortgage insurer’s Risk-to-capital may not exceed 25 to 1. In certain of the RBC States, a mortgage insurer must satisfy a MPP Requirement. The statutory capital requirements for the non-RBC States are de minimis (ranging from $1 million to $5 million ); however, the insurance laws of these states generally grant broad supervisory powers to state agencies or officials to enforce rules or exercise discretion affecting almost every significant aspect of the insurance business, including the power to revoke or restrict an insurance company’s ability to write new business. Unless an RBC State grants a waiver or other form of relief, if a mortgage insurer, such as Radian Guaranty, is not in compliance with the Statutory RBC Requirement of that state, the mortgage insurer may be prohibited from writing new mortgage insurance business in that state. Radian Guaranty’s domiciliary state, Pennsylvania, is not one of the RBC States. Radian Guaranty was in compliance with the Statutory RBC Requirements or MPP Requirements, as applicable, in each of the RBC States as of March 31, 2018 . The NAIC is in the process of developing a new Model Act for mortgage insurers, which is expected to include, among other items, new capital adequacy requirements for mortgage insurers. In May 2016, a working group of state regulators released an exposure draft of a risk-based capital framework to establish capital requirements for mortgage insurers. While the outcome and timing of this process are uncertain, the new Model Act, if and when finalized by the NAIC, has the potential to increase capital requirements in those states that adopt the Model Act. However, we continue to believe the changes to the Model Act will not result in financial requirements that require greater capital than the level currently required under the PMIERs financial requirements. See Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2017 Form 10-K for information regarding the PMIERs, which set requirements for private mortgage insurers to remain eligible insurers of loans purchased by the GSEs. Radian Guaranty’s Risk-to-capital calculation appears in the table below. For purposes of the Risk-to-capital calculation, as well as the Risk-to-capital requirements imposed by certain states, statutory capital is defined as the sum of statutory policyholders’ surplus plus statutory contingency reserves. March 31, December 31, ($ in millions) RIF, net (1) $ 37,571.1 $ 36,793.5 Common stock and paid-in capital $ 1,866.0 $ 1,866.0 Surplus Note 100.0 100.0 Unassigned earnings (deficit) (758.8 ) (765.0 ) Statutory policyholders’ surplus 1,207.2 1,201.0 Contingency reserve 1,773.6 1,667.0 Statutory capital $ 2,980.8 $ 2,868.0 Risk-to-capital 12.6:1 12.8:1 ______________________ (1) Excludes risk ceded through reinsurance contracts (to third parties and affiliates) and RIF on defaulted loans. The net decrease in Radian Guaranty’s Risk-to-capital in the first three months of 2018 was primarily due to the increase in overall statutory capital, partially offset by an increase in RIF. Statutory capital increased by $112.8 million , primarily due to Radian Guaranty’s statutory net income of $111.9 million for the first three months of 2018 . The Risk-to-capital ratio for our combined mortgage insurance operations was 11.9 to 1 as of March 31, 2018 , compared to 12.1 to 1 as of December 31, 2017 . |

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. While the amounts included in our condensed consolidated financial statements include our best estimates and assumptions, actual results may vary materially. |
Securities Borrowed and Loaned Policy [Policy Text Block] | During the third quarter of 2017, we commenced participation in a securities lending program whereby we loan certain securities in our investment portfolio to Borrowers for short periods of time. These securities lending agreements are collateralized financing arrangements whereby we transfer securities to third parties through an intermediary in exchange for cash or other securities. In all of our securities lending agreements, the securities we transfer to Borrowers (loaned securities) may be transferred or loaned by the Borrowers; however, we maintain effective control over all loaned securities, including: (i) retaining ownership of the securities; (ii) receiving the related investment or other income; and (iii) having the right to request the return of the loaned securities at any time. Although we report such securities at fair value within other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, the detailed information regarding investments provided in this Note includes these securities. |
New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block] | Accounting Standards Adopted During 2018. In May 2014, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding revenue recognition. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date for this updated standard for public companies to interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and subsequently issued various clarifying updates. Our adoption of this standard, effective January 1, 2018, had no material impact on our financial statements. The disclosures required by this update are included above in “— Revenue Recognition—Services. ” In January 2016, the FASB issued an update that makes certain changes to the standard for the accounting of financial instruments. Among other things, the update requires: (i) equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (ii) the use of the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (iii) separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset; and (iv) separate presentation in other comprehensive income of the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The update also eliminates the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. This update is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. In February 2018, the FASB issued technical corrections related to this update, which addresses common questions regarding the application and adoption of the new guidance and the subsequent amendments. As a result of adopting these updates, equity securities are no longer classified as available for sale securities and changes in fair value are recognized through earnings. Consequently, we recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income representing unrealized losses related to equity securities in the amount of $0.2 million , net of tax. In addition, we elected to utilize net asset value as a practical expedient to measure certain other investments, which resulted in an increase to other invested assets with an offset to retained earnings in the amount of $2.3 million , net of tax . Our adoption of both these updates effective January 1, 2018 resulted in a net adjustment to retained earnings of $2.1 million . See Notes 4 and 5 for additional information. In February 2018, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding income statement reporting of comprehensive income and reclassification of certain tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments in this update allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the TCJA. The provisions of this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, for reporting periods for which financial statements have not been available for issuance. We elected to early adopt this update effective January 1, 2018. As a result we recorded a reclassification adjustment from other comprehensive income to retained earnings in the amount of $2.7 million . See Note 9 for additional information regarding the TCJA. |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted. In February 2016, the FASB issued an update that replaces the existing accounting and disclosure requirements for leases of property, plant and equipment. The update requires lessees to recognize, as of the lease commencement date, assets and liabilities for all leases with lease terms of more than 12 months, which is a change from the current GAAP requirement to recognize only capital leases on the balance sheet. Pursuant to the new standard, the liability initially recognized for the lease obligation is equal to the present value of the lease payments not yet made, discounted over the lease term at the implicit interest rate of the lease, if available, or otherwise at the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. The lessee is also required to recognize an asset for its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, based on the liability subject to certain adjustments, such as for initial direct costs. Leases are required to be classified as either operating or finance, with expense on operating leases recorded as a single lease cost on a straight-line basis. For finance leases, interest expense on the lease liability is required to be recognized separately from the straight-line amortization of the right-of-use asset. Quantitative disclosures are required for certain items, including the cost of leases, the weighted-average remaining lease term, the weighted-average discount rate and a maturity analysis of lease liabilities. Additional qualitative disclosures are also required regarding the nature of the leases, such as basis, terms and conditions of: (i) variable interest payments; (ii) extension and termination options; and (iii) residual value guarantees. This update is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted by applying the new guidance as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, using a modified retrospective transition approach with certain optional practical expedients. We are currently evaluating the impact to our financial statements and future disclosures as a result of this update. See Note 13 of our 2017 Form 10-K for additional information about our leases. In June 2016, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. This update requires that financial assets measured at their amortized cost basis be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities are to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses, rather than a write-down of the asset, with the amount of the allowance limited to the amount by which fair value is less than amortized cost. This update is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. This update is not applicable to credit losses associated with our mortgage insurance policies. We are currently evaluating the impact to our financial statements and future disclosures as a result of this update. In March 2017, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standard regarding receivables. The new standard requires certain premiums on purchased callable debt securities to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amortization period for callable debt securities purchased at a discount will not be impacted. The provisions of this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. We are currently evaluating the impact to our financial statements and future disclosures as a result of this update. |
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | We have two strategic business units that we manage separately—Mortgage Insurance and Services. Adjusted pretax operating income (loss) for each segment represents segment results on a standalone basis; therefore, inter-segment eliminations and reclassifications required for consolidated GAAP presentation have not been reflected. We allocate to our Mortgage Insurance segment: (i) corporate expenses based on its forecasted annual percentage of total revenue, which approximates the estimated percentage of time spent on the Mortgage Insurance segment; (ii) all interest expense except for interest expense related to an intercompany note with terms consistent with the original issued amount of $300 million from the Senior Notes due 2019 that were used to fund our purchase of Clayton; and (iii) all corporate cash and investments. We allocate to our Services segment: (i) corporate expenses based on its forecasted annual percentage of total revenue, which approximates the estimated percentage of time spent on the Services segment and (ii) as noted above, allocated interest expense. No material corporate cash or investments are allocated to the Services segment. Inter-segment activities are recorded at market rates for segment reporting and eliminated in consolidation. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block] | In accordance with GAAP, we established a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level I measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level III measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined below: Level I — Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; Level II — Prices or valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; and Level III — Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Level III inputs are used to measure fair value only to the extent that observable inputs are not available. The level of market activity used to determine the fair value hierarchy is based on the availability of observable inputs market participants would use to price an asset or a liability, including market value price observations. As a result of our implementation of the update to the standard for the accounting of financial instruments, we elected to measure certain other investments using the net asset value as a practical expedient. |
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | We are required to establish a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. At each balance sheet date, we assess our need for a valuation allowance and our assessment is based on all available evidence, both positive and negative. This requires management to exercise judgment and make assumptions regarding whether our deferred tax assets will be realized in future periods. |
Revenue Recognition, Deferred Revenue [Policy Text Block] | Our Services segment revenues are recognized over time and measured each period based on the progress to date as services are performed and made available to customers. Our contracts with customers, including payment terms, are generally short-term in nature; therefore, any impact related to timing is immaterial. Revenue recognized related to services made available to customers and billed is reflected in accounts receivables. Revenue recognized related to services performed and not yet billed is recorded in unbilled receivables and reflected in other assets. We have no material bad-debt expense. The following represents balances related to Services contracts as of the dates indicated: (In thousands) March 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 Accounts Receivable - Services Contracts $ 13,236 $ 17,391 Unbilled Receivables - Services Contracts 20,949 22,257 Deferred Revenues - Services Contracts 3,481 3,235 Revenue expected to be recognized in any future period related to remaining performance obligations, such as contracts where revenue is recognized as invoiced and contracts with variable consideration related to undelivered performance obligations, is not material. Fee-for-Service Contracts Generally, our contracts with our clients do not include minimum volume commitments and can be terminated at any time by our clients. Although some of our contracts and assignments are recurring in nature, and include repetitive monthly assignments, a significant portion of our engagements are transactional in nature and may be performed in connection with securitizations, loan sales, loan purchases or other transactions. Due to the transactional nature of our business, our Services segment revenues may fluctuate from period to period as transactions are commenced or completed. We do not recognize revenue or expense related to amounts advanced by us and subsequently reimbursed by clients for maintenance or repairs because we do not take control of the service prior to the client taking control. We record an expense if an advance is made that is not in accordance with a client contract and the client is not obligated to reimburse us. Due to the nature of the services provided, our Services arrangements with customers may include any of the following three basic types of contracts: Fixed-Price Contracts. We use fixed-price contracts in our real estate valuation and component services, our loan review, underwriting and due diligence services as well as our title and closing services. We also use fixed-price contracts in our surveillance business for our servicer oversight services and RMBS surveillance services, and in our asset management business activities. Under fixed-price contracts we agree to perform the specified services and deliverables for a pre-determined per-unit or per-file price or day rate. Each service qualifies as a separate performance obligation and revenue is recognized as the service performed is made available to the client. Time-and-Expense Contracts. The Services segment also derives a portion of its revenue from professional service activities under time-and-expense contracts. In these types of contracts, we are paid a fixed hourly rate, and we are reimbursed for billable out-of-pocket expenses as work is performed. These contracts are used in our loan review, underwriting and due diligence services. Services revenue consisting of billed time fees and pass-through expenses is recorded over time and based on the progress to date as services are performed and made available to customers. Services revenue may also include expenses billed to clients, which includes travel and other out-of-pocket expenses, and other reimbursable expenses. Percentage-of-Sale Contracts. Under percentage-of-sale contracts, we are paid a contractual percentage of the sale proceeds upon the sale of each property. These contracts are only used for a portion of our REO management services and our real estate brokerage services. In addition, through the use of our proprietary technology, property leads are sent to select clients. Revenue attributable to services provided under a percentage-of-sale contract is recognized over time and measured based on the progress to date and typically coincides with the client’s successful closing on the property. The revenue recognized for these transactions is based on a percentage of the sale. In certain instances, fees are received at the time that an asset is assigned to Radian for management. These fees are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized over time based on progress to date and the availability to customers. In certain instances, fees are received at the time that an asset is assigned to Radian for management. These fees are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized over time based on progress to date and the availability to customers. |

We manage this liquidity risk associated with cash collateral by maintaining the cash collateral in a short-term money-market fund with daily availability. The credit risk under these programs is reduced by the amounts of collateral received. On a daily basis, the value of the underlying securities that we have loaned to the Borrowers is compared to the value of cash and securities collateral we received from the Borrowers, and additional cash or securities are requested or returned, as applicable. In addition, we are indemnified against counterparty credit risk by the intermediary. | ||
