Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
General | General Arch Capital Group Ltd. (“ACGL”) is a Bermuda public limited liability company which provides insurance and reinsurance on a worldwide basis through its wholly-owned subsidiaries. As used herein, the “Company” means ACGL and its subsidiaries. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the results of Watford Holdings Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. See Note 3 . On December 31, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of United Guaranty Corporation, a North Carolina corporation (“UGC”) pursuant to a stock purchase agreement with American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”). The acquisition of UGC (“UGC acquisition”) expanded the scale of Arch’s existing mortgage insurance businesses by combining UGC’s position as the market leader in the U.S. private mortgage insurance industry with Arch’s financial strength and history of innovation, further diversifying the Company’s business profile and customer base. The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normally recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of results on an interim basis. The results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year or any future periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted; however, management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (“2016 Form 10-K”), including the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes. The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior year information to conform to the current presentation, including the presentation of ‘amortization of intangible assets’ on its consolidated statements of income to split out such item (previously reflected in acquisition expenses and/or other operating expenses). Such reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s net income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity or cash flows. Tabular amounts are in U.S. Dollars in thousands, except share amounts, unless otherwise noted. |

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Accounting Standards Adopted The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” effective January 1, 2017 . This ASU was issued in the 2016 first quarter to improve and simplify the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions. This ASU provides simplifications with respect to income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows for these types of transactions. With respect to the forfeiture accounting policy election, the Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur, which did not result in a material cumulative effect adjustment. With respect to the change in presentation in the statement of cash flows related to excess tax benefits, the Company has applied the guidance prospectively and prior periods have not been adjusted. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” was issued in the 2014 second quarter and updated through various ASUs in 2016. This ASU (and as updated in 2016) creates a new comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will serve as a single source of revenue for all companies in all industries. The guidance applies to all companies that either enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of non-financial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards, such as insurance contracts or financial instruments. The core principle of this ASU is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under the current guidance. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. The ASU also requires enhanced disclosures about revenue. The ASU is effective in the 2018 first quarter and may be applied on a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently assessing the impact the implementation of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this ASU will not impact the Company's insurance premium revenues or revenues from its investment portfolio, which represent a substantial portion of consolidated revenues, but may have an impact on the Company's other revenues. ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10) - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, ” was issued in the 2016 first quarter to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments and to provide improved financial information to readers of the financial statements. Among other provisions focused on improving the recognition and measurement of financial instruments, the ASU requires that equity investments be measured at fair value on the balance sheet with changes in fair value reported in the income statement and that an exit price notion be used when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. The ASU is effective in the 2018 first quarter and, aside from limited situations, cannot be early adopted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the implementation of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, cash flows, or total comprehensive income, but will have a material impact on the Company's results of operations as changes in fair value of equity instruments will be presented in net income rather than other comprehensive income. ASU 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Restricted Cash " was issued in the 2016 fourth quarter. The ASU requires that restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included with cash and cash equivalents in the reconciliation of beginning and ending cash on the statements of cash flows. As a result, transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents will no longer be presented on the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective, with retrospective adoption, for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the implementation of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, comprehensive income or net cash provided from operating activities. ASU 2017-08, “Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities,” was issued in the 2017 first quarter. The ASU amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium by shortening the amortization period for the premium to the earliest call date. The ASU will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2019 and is required to be applied using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently assessing the impact the implementation of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows . ASU 2017-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Scope of Modification Accounting ” was issued in the 2017 second quarter. The ASU provides updated guidance to clarify when to account for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. The ASU is effective prospectively for all companies for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows . |

Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entity and Noncontrolling Interests | Variable Interest Entities and Noncontrolling Interests A variable interest entity (“VIE”) refers to an entity that has characteristics such as (i) insufficient equity at risk to allow the entity to finance its activities without additional financial support or (ii) instances where the equity investors, as a group, do not have characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is defined as the variable interest holder that is determined to have the controlling financial interest as a result of having both (i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If a company is determined to be the primary beneficiary, it is required to consolidate the VIE in its financial statements. Watford Holdings Ltd. In March 2014, the Company invested $100.0 million and acquired approximately 11% of Watford Holdings Ltd.’s common equity and a warrant to purchase additional common equity. Watford Holdings Ltd. is the parent of Watford Re Ltd., a multi-line Bermuda reinsurance company (together with Watford Holdings Ltd., “Watford Re”). Watford Re is considered a VIE and the Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary of Watford Re. As such, the results of Watford Re are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company does not guarantee or provide credit support for Watford Re, and the Company’s financial exposure to Watford Re is limited to its investment in Watford Re’s common and preferred shares and counterparty credit risk (mitigated by collateral) arising from reinsurance transactions. The following table provides the carrying amount and balance sheet caption in which the assets and liabilities of Watford Re are reported: June 30, December 31, 2017 2016 Assets Investments accounted for using the fair value option $ 2,129,436 $ 1,857,623 Cash 63,929 74,893 Accrued investment income 13,229 17,017 Premiums receivable 193,769 189,911 Reinsurance recoverable on unpaid and paid losses and LAE 28,267 24,420 Ceded unearned premiums 20,455 12,145 Deferred acquisition costs 91,183 86,379 Receivable for securities sold 32,618 1,326 Goodwill and intangible assets 7,650 7,650 Other assets 132,068 111,386 Total assets of consolidated VIE $ 2,712,604 $ 2,382,750 Liabilities Reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses $ 643,424 $ 510,809 Unearned premiums 314,446 293,480 Reinsurance balances payable 17,623 12,289 Revolving credit agreement borrowings 186,452 256,650 Payable for securities purchased 224,152 42,922 Other liabilities 119,928 88,976 Total liabilities of consolidated VIE $ 1,506,025 $ 1,205,126 Redeemable noncontrolling interests $ 220,436 $ 220,253 For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , Watford Re generated $134.4 million of cash provided by operating activities, $70.1 million of cash used for investing activities and $76.4 million of cash used for financing activities, compared to $131.6 million of cash provided by operating activities, $13.8 million of cash used for investing activities and $148.2 million of cash used for financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . Non-redeemable noncontrolling interests The Company accounts for the portion of Watford Re’s common equity attributable to third party investors in the shareholders’ equity section of its consolidated balance sheets. The noncontrolling ownership in Watford Re’s common shares was approximately 89% at June 30, 2017 . The portion of Watford Re’s income or loss attributable to third party investors is recorded in the consolidated statements of income in ‘net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.’ The following table sets forth activity in the non-redeemable noncontrolling interests: June 30, 2017 2016 Three Months Ended Balance, beginning of period $ 868,186 $ 754,915 Amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests 9,346 33,716 Foreign currency translation adjustments attributable to noncontrolling interests (76 ) (42 ) Balance, end of period $ 877,456 $ 788,589 Six Months Ended Balance, beginning of year $ 851,854 $ 738,831 Amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests 25,670 49,958 Foreign currency translation adjustments attributable to noncontrolling interests (68 ) (200 ) Balance, end of period $ 877,456 $ 788,589 Redeemable noncontrolling interests The Company accounts for redeemable noncontrolling interests in the mezzanine section of its consolidated balance sheets in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. Such redeemable noncontrolling interests relate to the 9,065,200 cumulative redeemable preference shares (“Watford Preference Shares”) issued in March 2014 with a par value of $0.01 per share and a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. Preferred dividends, including the accretion of the discount and issuance costs, are included in ‘net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests’ in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The following table sets forth activity in the redeemable non-controlling interests: June 30, 2017 2016 Three Months Ended Balance, beginning of period $ 205,644 $ 205,274 Accretion of preference share issuance costs 92 92 Balance, end of period $ 205,736 $ 205,366 Six Months Ended Balance, beginning of year $ 205,553 $ 205,182 Accretion of preference share issuance costs 183 184 Balance, end of period $ 205,736 $ 205,366 The portion of Watford Re’s income or loss attributable to third party investors, recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of income in ‘net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests,’ are summarized in the table below: June 30, 2017 2016 Three Months Ended Amounts attributable to non-redeemable noncontrolling interests $ (9,346 ) $ (33,716 ) Dividends attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests (4,586 ) (4,586 ) Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests $ (13,932 ) $ (38,302 ) Six Months Ended Amounts attributable to non-redeemable noncontrolling interests $ (25,670 ) $ (49,958 ) Dividends attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests (9,170 ) (9,173 ) Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests $ (34,840 ) $ (59,131 ) Bellemeade Re I and II Upon closing of the UGC acquisition, the Company acquired the rights and obligations related to aggregate excess of loss reinsurance agreements with Bellemeade Re I Ltd. (“Bellemeade I”), entered into in July 2015, and with Bellemeade Re II Ltd. (“Bellemeade II”), entered into in May 2016 (the “Bellemeade Agreements”). Bellemeade I and Bellemeade II are special purpose reinsurance companies domiciled in Bermuda, each of which provided for up to approximately $300 million of aggregate excess of loss reinsurance coverage at inception for new delinquencies on portfolios of in-force policies issued. As a result of the evaluation of the Bellemeade Agreements, the Company concluded that both Bellemeade I and Bellemeade II are VIEs. However, given that the ceding insurers do not have the unilateral power to direct those activities that are significant to the economic performance of Bellemeade I and Bellemeade II, the Company does not consolidate Bellemeade I and Bellemeade II in its consolidated financial statements. The following table presents total assets of Bellemeade I and Bellemeade II as well as the Company’s maximum exposure to loss associated with these VIEs: Maximum Exposure to Loss Total VIE Assets On-Balance Sheet Off-Balance Sheet Total Bellemeade I $ 129,475 $ 489 $ 1,165 $ 1,654 Bellemeade II 238,310 58 929 987 Total $ 367,785 $ 547 $ 2,094 $ 2,641 Irving Partners Limited Partnership Upon closing of the UGC acquisition, the Company acquired a limited partnership interest in Irving Partners Limited Partnership (“Irving Partners”), which owns and operates an office building in Greensboro, North Carolina in which the Company is the main tenant. The Company concluded that Irving Partners is a VIE but that it is not the primary beneficiary. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss is approximately $13.9 million at June 30, 2017 . |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information The Company classifies its businesses into three underwriting segments — insurance, reinsurance and mortgage — and two other operating segments — ‘other’ and corporate (non-underwriting). The Company determined its reportable segments using the management approach described in accounting guidance regarding disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those used for the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Intersegment business is allocated to the segment accountable for the underwriting results. The Company’s insurance, reinsurance and mortgage segments each have managers who are responsible for the overall profitability of their respective segments and who are directly accountable to the Company’s chief operating decision makers, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the President and Chief Operating Officer, and the Chief Financial Officer of ACGL. The chief operating decision makers do not assess performance, measure return on equity or make resource allocation decisions on a line of business basis. Management measures segment performance for its three underwriting segments based on underwriting income or loss. The Company does not manage its assets by underwriting segment, with the exception of goodwill and intangible assets, and, accordingly, investment income is not allocated to each underwriting segment. The insurance segment consists of the Company’s insurance underwriting units which offer specialty product lines on a worldwide basis. Product lines include: construction and national accounts; excess and surplus casualty; lenders products; professional lines; programs; property, energy, marine and aviation; travel, accident and health; and other (consisting of alternative markets, excess workers' compensation and surety business). The reinsurance segment consists of the Company’s reinsurance underwriting units which offer specialty product lines on a worldwide basis. Product lines include: casualty; marine and aviation; other specialty; property catastrophe; property excluding property catastrophe (losses on a single risk, both excess of loss and pro rata); and other (consisting of life reinsurance, casualty clash and other). The mortgage segment includes the Company’s U.S. and international mortgage insurance and reinsurance operations as well as government sponsored enterprise (“GSE”) credit-risk sharing transactions. Arch Mortgage Insurance Company, United Guaranty Residential Insurance Company and United Guaranty Mortgage Indemnity Company (combined “Arch MI U.S.”) are approved as eligible mortgage insurers by Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), each a GSE. The corporate (non-underwriting) segment results include net investment income, other income (loss), corporate expenses, UGC transaction costs and other, interest expense, dividends related to the Company’s non-cumulative preferred shares, net realized gains or losses, net impairment losses included in earnings, equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net foreign exchange gains or losses and income taxes. Such amounts exclude the results of the ‘other’ segment. The ‘other’ segment includes the results of Watford Re (see Note 3 ). Watford Re has its own management and board of directors that is responsible for the overall profitability of the ‘other’ segment. For the ‘other’ segment, performance is measured based on net income or loss. The following tables summarize the Company’s underwriting income or loss by segment, together with a reconciliation of underwriting income or loss to net income available to common shareholders: Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Insurance Reinsurance Mortgage Sub-Total Other Total Gross premiums written (1) $ 743,902 $ 453,186 $ 336,226 $ 1,533,142 $ 152,813 $ 1,609,659 Premiums ceded (247,446 ) (115,262 ) (62,314 ) (424,850 ) (12,410 ) (360,964 ) Net premiums written 496,456 337,924 273,912 1,108,292 140,403 1,248,695 Change in unearned premiums 21,118 (23,222 ) (16,068 ) (18,172 ) 10,351 (7,821 ) Net premiums earned 517,574 314,702 257,844 1,090,120 150,754 1,240,874 Other underwriting income (loss) — (279 ) 4,277 3,998 824 4,822 Losses and loss adjustment expenses (350,939 ) (207,606 ) (20,694 ) (579,239 ) (110,621 ) (689,860 ) Acquisition expenses (78,872 ) (51,151 ) (25,666 ) (155,689 ) (34,747 ) (190,436 ) Other operating expenses (92,267 ) (36,711 ) (32,150 ) (161,128 ) (8,853 ) (169,981 ) Underwriting income (loss) $ (4,504 ) $ 18,955 $ 183,611 198,062 (2,643 ) 195,419 Net investment income 92,520 18,604 111,124 Net realized gains (losses) 18,046 3,689 21,735 Net impairment losses recognized in earnings (1,730 ) — (1,730 ) Equity in net income (loss) of investment funds accounted for using the equity method 32,706 — 32,706 Other income (loss) (1,994 ) — (1,994 ) Corporate expenses (2) (22,201 ) — (22,201 ) UGC transaction costs and other (2) (2,675 ) — (2,675 ) Amortization of intangible assets (30,824 ) — (30,824 ) Interest expense (25,912 ) (2,837 ) (28,749 ) Net foreign exchange gains (losses) (37,821 ) (1,722 ) (39,543 ) Income (loss) before income taxes 218,177 15,091 233,268 Income tax expense (34,169 ) — (34,169 ) Net income (loss) 184,008 15,091 199,099 Dividends attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests — (4,586 ) (4,586 ) Amounts attributable to nonredeemable noncontrolling interests — (9,346 ) (9,346 ) Net income (loss) available to Arch 184,008 1,159 185,167 Preferred dividends (11,349 ) — (11,349 ) Net income (loss) available to Arch common shareholders $ 172,659 $ 1,159 $ 173,818 Underwriting Ratios Loss ratio 67.8 % 66.0 % 8.0 % 53.1 % 73.4 % 55.6 % Acquisition expense ratio 15.2 % 16.3 % 10.0 % 14.3 % 23.0 % 15.3 % Other operating expense ratio 17.8 % 11.7 % 12.5 % 14.8 % 5.9 % 13.7 % Combined ratio 100.8 % 94.0 % 30.5 % 82.2 % 102.3 % 84.6 % Goodwill and intangible assets $ 24,480 $ 609 $ 680,236 $ 705,325 $ 7,650 $ 712,975 (1) Certain amounts included in the gross premiums written of each segment are related to intersegment transactions.

The reinsurance segment’s net favorable development of $39.5 million , or 12.6 points, for the 2017 second quarter consisted of $28.1 million from short-tailed lines and $11.4 million from long-tailed and medium-tailed lines. Favorable development in short-tailed lines included $16.9 million from property catastrophe and property other than property catastrophe reserves, across most underwriting years ( i.e. , all premiums and losses attributable to contracts having an inception or renewal date within the given twelve-month period), reflecting lower levels of reported and paid claims activity than previously anticipated which led to decreases in certain loss ratio selections during the period. Favorable development in long-tailed and medium-tailed lines reflected reductions in casualty reserves of $9.0 million based on varying levels of reported and paid claims activity, primarily from the 2002 to 2004 underwriting years, and favorable development in marine reserves of $2.4 million across most underwriting years. The insurance segment’s net favorable development of $2.0 million , or 0.4 points, for the 2017 second quarter consisted of $5.3 million of net favorable development in short-tailed lines, partially offset by $3.3 million of net adverse development in long-tailed and medium-tailed lines. Net favorable development in short-tailed lines primarily resulted from property (including special risk other than marine) reserves from the 2012 to 2016 accident years ( i.e. , the year in which a loss occurred). Net adverse development in medium-tailed and long-tailed lines reflected $12.2 million of adverse development on programs, primarily on a small number of programs in the 2014 and 2015 accident years, and $8.9 million on construction reserves across various accident years. Such amounts were partially offset by net favorable development of $17.8 million in other medium-tailed lines, primarily in professional liability with $12.1 million of favorable development across most accident years, and surety with $3.6 million of favorable development. The mortgage segment’s net favorable development was $29.8 million , or 11.5 points, for the 2017 second quarter . The 2017 second quarter development was primarily driven by continued lower than expected claim emergence across most origination years and also reflected $4.9 million related to subrogation recoveries on second lien and other portfolios. 2016 Second Quarter During the 2016 second quarter , the Company recorded net favorable development on prior year loss reserves of $85.8 million , which consisted of $69.8 million from the reinsurance segment, $4.9 million from the insurance segment, $11.1 million from the mortgage segment and minimal activity from the ‘other’ segment. The reinsurance segment’s net favorable development of $69.8 million , or 24.0 points, for the 2016 second quarter consisted of $48.9 million from short-tailed lines and $20.9 million from long-tailed and medium-tailed lines. Favorable development in short-tailed lines included $39.5 million from property catastrophe and property other than property catastrophe reserves, across most underwriting years, reflecting lower levels of reported and paid claims activity than previously anticipated which led to decreases in certain loss ratio selections during the period. Favorable development in long-tailed lines reflected reductions in casualty reserves of $22.8 million based on varying levels of reported and paid claims activity, primarily from the 2002 to 2009 underwriting years and 2012 to 2013 underwriting years. The insurance segment’s net favorable development of $4.9 million , or 0.9 points, for the 2016 second quarter consisted of $8.1 million of net favorable development in long-tailed lines and $6.5 million of net favorable development in short-tailed lines, partially offset by $9.7 million of net adverse development in medium-tailed lines. Net favorable development in long-tailed lines reflected net reductions in executive assurance reserves from the 2008 to 2012 accident years ( i.e. , the year in which a loss occurred), and net reductions in casualty reserves from the 2004 to 2012 accident years, offset by a large energy casualty claim from the 2015 accident year. Net favorable development in short-tailed lines primarily resulted from reductions in property (including special risk other than marine) reserves from the 2012 to 2014 accident years and the 2008 accident year, primarily due to varying levels of reported claims activity. Such amount included $4.1 million of favorable development on the 2005 to 2015 named catastrophic events. Net adverse development in medium-tailed lines primarily resulted from an increase in programs of $16.4 million stemming in part from terminated programs, partially offset by favorable development of $6.7 million in other medium-tailed lines, primarily in professional liability and surety. The mortgage segment’s net favorable development was $11.1 million , or 16.6 points, for the 2016 second quarter . The 2016 second quarter development was primarily driven by lower than expected claim rates across most origination years. Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company recorded net favorable development on prior year loss reserves of $152.6 million , which consisted of $96.8 million from the reinsurance segment, $4.1 million from the insurance segment, $53.4 million from the mortgage segment and adverse development of $1.7 million from the ‘other’ segment. The reinsurance segment’s net favorable development of $96.8 million , or 17.3 points, for the 2017 period consisted of $68.9 million from short-tailed lines and $27.9 million from long-tailed and medium-tailed lines. Favorable development in short-tailed lines included $51.0 million from property catastrophe and property other than property catastrophe reserves, across most underwriting years, reflecting lower levels of reported and paid claims activity than previously anticipated which led to decreases in certain loss ratio selections during the period. Favorable development in long-tailed and medium-tailed lines reflected reductions in casualty reserves of $15.6 million based on varying levels of reported and paid claims activity, primarily from the 2002 to 2013 underwriting years, and favorable development in marine reserves of $12.3 million across most underwriting years. The insurance segment’s net favorable development of $4.1 million , or 0.4 points, for the 2017 period consisted of $7.2 million of net favorable development in short-tailed lines and $6.6 million of net favorable development in long-tailed lines, partially offset by $9.7 million of net adverse development in medium-tailed lines. Net favorable development in short-tailed lines primarily resulted from property (including special risk other than marine) reserves from the 2011 to 2016 accident years. Net favorable development in long-tailed lines reflected net reductions in executive assurance reserves from the 2008 to 2014 accident years and reductions in healthcare reserves across various accident years, partially offset by $13.4 million on construction reserves across various accident years. Net adverse development in medium-tailed lines primarily resulted from an increase in programs of $26.4 million stemming in part from development on a small number of programs in the 2013 to 2015 accident years, partially offset by net favorable development of $16.7 million in other medium-tailed lines, primarily in professional liability and surety. The mortgage segment’s net favorable development was $53.4 million , or 10.6 points, for the 2017 period. The development was primarily driven by continued lower than expected claim emergence across most origination years and also reflected $13.1 million related to subrogation recoveries on second lien and other portfolios. Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 During the six months ended June 30, 2016 , the Company recorded net favorable development on prior year loss reserves of $141.8 million , which consisted of $117.2 million from the reinsurance segment, $11.1 million from the insurance segment, $13.8 million from the mortgage segment and adverse development of $0.2 million from the ‘other’ segment. The reinsurance segment’s net favorable development of $117.2 million , or 21.2 points, for the 2016 period consisted of $85.4 million from short-tailed lines and $31.8 million from long-tailed and medium-tailed lines. Favorable development in short-tailed lines included $69.4 million from property catastrophe and property other than property catastrophe reserves, across most underwriting years. The net reduction of loss estimates for the reinsurance segment’s short-tailed lines primarily resulted from varying levels of reported and paid claims activity than previously anticipated which led to decreases in certain loss ratio selections during the period. Favorable development in long-tailed lines reflected reductions in casualty reserves of $37.0 million based on varying levels of reported and paid claims activity, primarily from the 2002 to 2013 underwriting years. Such amounts were partially offset by net adverse development on marine reserves of $3.9 million , primarily from the 2002 and 2015 underwriting years, partially offset by favorable development from most other underwriting years. The insurance segment’s net favorable development of $11.1 million , or 1.1 points, for the 2016 period consisted of $18.0 million of net favorable development in long-tailed lines and $10.2 million of net favorable development in short-tailed lines, partially offset by $17.1 million of net adverse development in medium-tailed lines. Net favorable development in long-tailed lines reflected net reductions in executive assurance reserves from the 2008 to 2012 accident years, and net reductions in casualty reserves from the 2004 to 2013 accident years, partially offset by a large energy casualty claim from the 2015 accident year. Net favorable development in short-tailed lines primarily resulted from reductions in property (including special risk other than marine) reserves from the 2012 to 2014 accident years, primarily due to varying levels of reported claims activity. Such amount included $7.3 million of favorable development on the 2005 to 2015 named catastrophic events. Net adverse development in medium-tailed lines primarily resulted from an increase in programs of $22.4 million stemming in part from terminated programs, partially offset by favorable development of $5.3 million in other medium-tailed lines, primarily in professional liability and surety. The mortgage segment’s net favorable development was $13.8 million , or 10.8 points, for the 2016 period. The development was primarily driven by lower than expected claim rates across most origination years. |

For purposes of this table, the Company has excluded the collateral received under securities lending, at fair value and included the securities pledged under securities lending, at fair value. See “—Securities Lending Agreements.” At June 30, 2017 , on a lot level basis, approximately 3,150 security lots out of a total of approximately 7,610 security lots were in an unrealized loss position and the largest single unrealized loss from a single lot in the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio was $2.5 million . At December 31, 2016 , on a lot level basis, approximately 3,540 security lots out of a total of approximately 7,240 security lots were in an unrealized loss position and the largest single unrealized loss from a single lot in the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio was $4.6 million . The contractual maturities of the Company’s fixed maturities are shown in the following table. Expected maturities, which are management’s best estimates, will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

For purposes of this table, the Company has excluded the collateral received under securities lending, at fair value and included the securities pledged under securities lending, at fair value. See “—Securities Lending Agreements.” Securities Lending Agreements The Company enters into securities lending agreements with financial institutions to enhance investment income whereby it loans certain of its securities to third parties, primarily major brokerage firms, for short periods of time through a lending agent. The Company maintains legal control over the securities it lends, retains the earnings and cash flows associated with the loaned securities and receives a fee from the borrower for the temporary use of the securities. An indemnification agreement with the lending agent protects the Company in the event a borrower becomes insolvent or fails to return any of the securities on loan from the Company. The Company receives collateral in the form of cash or securities. At June 30, 2017 , the fair value of the cash collateral received on securities lending was $36.7 million and the fair value of security collateral received was $591.1 million . At December 31, 2016 , the fair value of the cash collateral received on securities lending was $212.5 million , and the fair value of security collateral received was $550.1 million . Cash collateral is reinvested in short-term investments. The Company’s securities lending transactions were accounted for as secured borrowings with significant investment categories as follows: Remaining Contractual Maturity of the Agreements Overnight and Continuous Less than 30 Days 30-90 Days 90 Days or More Total June 30, 2017 U.S. government and government agencies $ 406,753 $ 10,175 $ 133,449 $ 29,984 $ 580,361 Corporate bonds 40,488 — — — 40,488 Equity securities 7,003 — — — 7,003 Total $ 454,244 $ 10,175 $ 133,449 $ 29,984 $ 627,852 Gross amount of recognized liabilities for securities lending in offsetting disclosure in Note 9 $ — Amounts related to securities lending not included in offsetting disclosure in Note 9 $ 627,852 December 31, 2016 U.S. government and government agencies $ 556,015 $ 31,244 $ 126,093 $ 5,140 $ 718,492 Corporate bonds 29,078 — — — 29,078 Equity securities 14,984 — — — 14,984 Total $ 600,077 $ 31,244 $ 126,093 $ 5,140 $ 762,554 Gross amount of recognized liabilities for securities lending in offsetting disclosure in Note 9 $ — Amounts related to securities lending not included in offsetting disclosure in Note 9 $ 762,554 Other Investments The following table summarizes the Company’s other investments, including available for sale and fair value option components: June 30, December 31, Available for sale: Asian and emerging markets $ 114,594 $ 84,778 Investment grade fixed income 52,266 33,923 Credit related funds 14,632 7,469 Other 67,169 41,800 Total available for sale 248,661 167,970 Fair value option: Term loan investments (par value: $1,367,178 and $1,208,537) 1,334,590 1,190,799 Mezzanine debt funds 141,066 127,943 Credit related funds 197,144 218,298 Investment grade fixed income 86,389 75,468 Asian and emerging markets 245,866 178,568 Other (1) 138,710 129,717 Total fair value option 2,143,765 1,920,793 Total $ 2,392,426 $ 2,088,763 (1) Includes fund investments with strategies in mortgage servicing rights, transportation, infrastructure and other. Certain of the Company’s other investments are in investment funds for which the Company has the option to redeem at agreed upon values as described in each investment fund’s subscription agreement. Depending on the terms of the various subscription agreements, investments in investment funds may be redeemed daily, monthly, quarterly or on other terms. Two common redemption restrictions which may impact the Company’s ability to redeem these investment funds are gates and lockups. A gate is a suspension of redemptions which may be implemented by the general partner or investment manager of the fund in order to defer, in whole or in part, the redemption request in the event the aggregate amount of redemption requests exceeds a predetermined percentage of the investment fund’s net assets which may otherwise hinder the general partner or investment manager’s ability to liquidate holdings in an orderly fashion in order to generate the cash necessary to fund extraordinarily large redemption payouts. A lockup period is the initial amount of time an investor is contractually required to hold the security before having the ability to redeem. If the investment funds are eligible to be redeemed, the time to redeem such fund can take weeks or months following the notification. Fair Value Option The following table summarizes the Company’s assets and liabilities which are accounted for using the fair value option: June 30, December 31, Fixed maturities $ 1,074,961 $ 1,099,116 Other investments 2,143,765 1,920,793 Short-term investments 527,384 373,669 Equity securities 81,298 27,642 Investments accounted for using the fair value option $ 3,827,408 $ 3,421,220 Limited partnership interests In the normal course of its activities, the Company invests in limited partnerships as part of its overall investment strategy. Such amounts are included in ‘investments accounted for using the equity method’ and ‘investments accounted for using the fair value option.’ The Company has determined that it is not required to consolidate these investments because it is not the primary beneficiary of the funds. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss with respect to these investments is limited to the investment carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and any unfunded commitment. The following table summarizes investments in limited partnership interests where the Company has a variable interest by balance sheet line item: June 30, December 31, Investments accounted for using the equity method (1) $ 948,856 $ 800,970 Investments accounted for using the fair value option (2) 86,888 90,804 Total $ 1,035,744 $ 891,774 (1) Aggregate unfunded commitments were $961.0 million at June 30, 2017 , compared to $776.6 million at December 31, 2016 . (2) Aggregate unfunded commitments were $67.7 million at June 30, 2017 , compared to $16.7 million at December 31, 2016 . Net Investment Income The components of net investment income were derived from the following sources: June 30, 2017 2016 Three Months Ended Fixed maturities $ 94,270 $ 77,994 Term loan investments 19,105 18,608 Equity securities (dividends) 3,654 3,663 Short-term investments 2,016 816 Other (1) 14,971 8,260 Gross investment income 134,016 109,341 Investment expenses (22,892 ) (21,003 ) Net investment income $ 111,124 $ 88,338 Six Months Ended Fixed maturities $ 188,663 $ 151,667 Term loan investments 40,275 38,620 Equity securities (dividends) 6,297 7,098 Short-term investments 3,775 1,312 Other (1) 33,381 22,003 Gross investment income 272,391 220,700 Investment expenses (43,393 ) (38,627 ) Net investment income $ 228,998 $ 182,073 (1) Includes income distributions from investment funds and other items. Net Realized Gains (Losses) Net realized gains (losses) were as follows, excluding other than-temporary impairment provision. June 30, 2017 2016 Three Months Ended Available for sale securities: Gross gains on investment sales $ 76,730 $ 74,695 Gross losses on investment sales (52,619 ) (43,293 ) Change in fair value of assets and liabilities accounted for using the fair value option: Fixed maturities 9,656 18,632 Other investments 637 13,136 Equity securities 2,829 401 Short-term investments 3,328 (621 ) Derivative instruments (1) (4,770 ) 20,334 Other (2) (14,056 ) (15,066 ) Net realized gains (losses) $ 21,735 $ 68,218 Six Months Ended Available for sale securities: Gross gains on investment sales $ 145,905 $ 182,514 Gross losses on investment sales (113,981 ) (106,424 ) Change in fair value of assets and liabilities accounted for using the fair value option: Fixed maturities 30,197 18,299 Other investments 17,885 (8,412 ) Equity securities 6,374 437 Short-term investments 3,332 (1,043 ) Derivative instruments (1) (13,951 ) 41,066 Other (2) (19,873 ) (20,895 ) Net realized gains (losses) $ 55,888 $ 105,542 (1) See Note 9 for information on the Company’s derivative instruments. (2) Includes the re-measurement of contingent consideration liability amounts. Equity in Net Income (Loss) of Investment Funds Accounted for Using the Equity Method The Company recorded $32.7 million of equity in net income related to investment funds accounted for using the equity method in the 2017 second quarter , compared to $8.7 million for the 2016 second quarter , and $80.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared to $15.4 million for the 2016 period. In applying the equity method, investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of the funds (which include changes in the market value of the underlying securities in the funds). Such investments are generally recorded on a one to three month lag based on the availability of reports from the investment funds. Other-Than-Temporary Impairments The Company performs quarterly reviews of its available for sale investments in order to determine whether declines in fair value below the amortized cost basis were considered other-than-temporary in accordance with applicable guidance. The following table details the net impairment losses recognized in earnings by asset class: June 30, 2017 2016 Three Months Ended Fixed maturities: Mortgage backed securities $ (92 ) $ (82 ) Corporate bonds (1,401 ) (775 ) Non-U.S. government securities — (51 ) Asset backed securities — (2,500 ) Municipal bonds (173 ) — Total (1,666 ) (3,408 ) Equity securities — (1,935 ) Other investments (64 ) — Net impairment losses recognized in earnings $ (1,730 ) $ (5,343 ) Six Months Ended Fixed maturities: Mortgage backed securities $ (1,411 ) $ (555 ) Corporate bonds (1,402 ) (5,655 ) Non-U.S. government securities (198 ) (232 ) Asset backed securities — (2,506 ) Municipal bonds (173 ) — Total (3,184 ) (8,948 ) Equity securities (186 ) (3,037 ) Other investments (167 ) (997 ) Net impairment losses recognized in earnings $ (3,537 ) $ (12,982 ) Net impairment losses recognized in earnings in the 2017 second quarter were primarily related to foreign currency fluctuations on corporate bonds. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , net impairment losses recognized in earnings reflected the Company’s decision to liquidate a portfolio of mortgage backed securities in April 2017. The Company recorded impairment losses on securities in such portfolio that were in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2017. The Company believes that the $3.6 million of OTTI included in accumulated other comprehensive income at June 30, 2017 on the securities which were considered by the Company to be impaired was due to market and sector-related factors ( i.e. , not credit losses). At June 30, 2017 , the Company did not intend to sell these securities, or any other securities which were in an unrealized loss position, and determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell such securities before recovery of their cost basis. The following table provides a roll forward of the amount related to credit losses recognized in earnings for which a portion of an OTTI was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income: June 30, 2017 2016 Three Months Ended Balance at start of period $ 12,537 $ 18,291 Credit loss impairments recognized on securities not previously impaired 31 287 Credit loss impairments recognized on securities previously impaired 172 — Reductions for increases in cash flows expected to be collected that are recognized over the remaining life of the security — — Reductions for securities sold during the period (8,303 ) (3,731 ) Balance at end of period $ 4,437 $ 14,847 Six Months Ended Balance at start of year $ 13,138 $ 26,875 Credit loss impairments recognized on securities not previously impaired 31 1,350 Credit loss impairments recognized on securities previously impaired 195 522 Reductions for increases in cash flows expected to be collected that are recognized over the remaining life of the security — — Reductions for securities sold during the period (8,927 ) (13,900 ) Balance at end of period $ 4,437 $ 14,847 Restricted Assets The Company is required to maintain assets on deposit, which primarily consist of fixed maturities, with various regulatory authorities to support its insurance and reinsurance operations. The Company’s insurance and reinsurance subsidiaries maintain assets in trust accounts as collateral for insurance and reinsurance transactions with affiliated companies and also have investments in segregated portfolios primarily to provide collateral or guarantees for letters of credit to third parties. See Note 10 for further details. The following table details the value of the Company’s restricted assets: June 30, December 31, Assets used for collateral or guarantees: Affiliated transactions $ 4,003,009 $ 3,871,971 Third party agreements 1,672,159 1,513,079 Deposits with U.S. regulatory authorities 618,448 472,890 Deposits with non-U.S. regulatory authorities 45,493 44,399 Total restricted assets $ 6,339,109 $ 5,902,339 |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value | Fair Value Accounting guidance regarding fair value measurements addresses how companies should measure fair value when they are required to use a fair value measure for recognition or disclosure purposes under GAAP and provides a common definition of fair value to be used throughout GAAP. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly fashion between market participants at the measurement date. In addition, it establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for the disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The level in the hierarchy within which a given fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement (Level 1 being the highest priority and Level 3 being the lowest priority). The levels in the hierarchy are defined as follows: Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for securities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such securities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. The Company reviews its securities measured at fair value and discusses the proper classification of such investments with investment advisers and others. The Company determines the existence of an active market based on its judgment as to whether transactions for the financial instrument occur in such market with sufficient frequency and volume to provide reliable pricing information. The independent pricing sources obtain market quotations and actual transaction prices for securities that have quoted prices in active markets. The Company uses quoted values and other data provided by nationally recognized independent pricing sources as inputs into its process for determining fair values of its fixed maturity investments. To validate the techniques or models used by pricing sources, the Company's review process includes, but is not limited to: (i) quantitative analysis (e.g., comparing the quarterly return for each managed portfolio to its target benchmark, with significant differences identified and investigated); (ii) a review of the average number of prices obtained in the pricing process and the range of resulting fair values; (iii) initial and ongoing evaluation of methodologies used by outside parties to calculate fair value; (iv) a comparison of the fair value estimates to the Company’s knowledge of the current market; (v) a comparison of the pricing services' fair values to other pricing services' fair values for the same investments; and (vi) periodic back-testing, which includes randomly selecting purchased or sold securities and comparing the executed prices to the fair value estimates from the pricing service. A price source hierarchy was maintained in order to determine which price source would be used (i.e. , a price obtained from a pricing service with more seniority in the hierarchy will be used over a less senior one in all cases). The hierarchy prioritizes pricing services based on availability and reliability and assigns the highest priority to index providers. Based on the above review, the Company will challenge any prices for a security or portfolio which are considered not to be representative of fair value. The Company did not adjust any of the prices obtained from the independent pricing sources at June 30, 2017 . In certain circumstances, when fair values are unavailable from these independent pricing sources, quotes are obtained directly from broker-dealers who are active in the corresponding markets. Such quotes are subject to the validation procedures noted above. Of the $19.92 billion of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value at June 30, 2017 , approximately $140.9 million , or 0.7% , were priced using non-binding broker-dealer quotes. Of the $19.10 billion of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value at December 31, 2016 , approximately $234.0 million , or 1.2% , were priced using non-binding broker-dealer quotes. Fixed maturities The Company uses the market approach valuation technique to estimate the fair value of its fixed maturity securities, when possible. The market approach includes obtaining prices from independent pricing services, such as index providers and pricing vendors, as well as to a lesser extent quotes from broker-dealers. The independent pricing sources obtain market quotations and actual transaction prices for securities that have quoted prices in active markets. Each source has its own proprietary method for determining the fair value of securities that are not actively traded. In general, these methods involve the use of “matrix pricing” in which the independent pricing source uses observable market inputs including, but not limited to, investment yields, credit risks and spreads, benchmarking of like securities, broker-dealer quotes, reported trades and sector groupings to determine a reasonable fair value. The following describes the significant inputs generally used to determine the fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity securities by asset class: • U.S. government and government agencies — valuations provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing vendors. The Company determined that all U.S. Treasuries would be classified as Level 1 securities due to observed levels of trading activity, the high number of strongly correlated pricing quotes received on U.S. Treasuries and other factors. The fair values of U.S. government agency securities are generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve. As the yields for the risk-free yield curve and the spreads for these securities are observable market inputs, the fair values of U.S. government agency securities are classified within Level 2. • Corporate bonds — valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors with a small amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for corporate bonds are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. Two securities are included in Level 3 due to a low level of transparency on the inputs used in the pricing process. • Mortgage-backed securities — valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through pricing vendors and index providers with a small amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined through the use of pricing models (including Option Adjusted Spread) which use spreads to determine the expected average life of the securities. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market. The pricing services also review prepayment speeds and other indicators, when applicable. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for mortgage-backed securities are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. • Municipal bonds — valuations provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing vendors. The fair values of these securities are generally determined using spreads obtained from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market, trade prices and the new issue market. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for municipal bonds are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. • Commercial mortgage-backed securities — valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors with a small amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined through the use of pricing models which use spreads to determine the appropriate average life of the securities. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market. The pricing services also review prepayment speeds and other indicators, when applicable. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for commercial mortgage-backed securities are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. • Non-U.S. government securities — valuations provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing vendors. The fair values of these securities are generally based on international indices or valuation models which include daily observed yield curves, cross-currency basis index spreads and country credit spreads. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for non-U.S. government securities are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. • Asset-backed securities — valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors with a small amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined through the use of pricing models (including Option Adjusted Spread) which use spreads to determine the appropriate average life of the securities. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market. The pricing services also review prepayment speeds and other indicators, when applicable. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for asset-backed securities are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. Equity securities The Company determined that exchange-traded equity securities would be included in Level 1 as their fair values are based on quoted market prices in active markets. Other equity securities are included in Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Other investments The Company determined that exchange-traded investments in mutual funds would be included in Level 1 as their fair values are based on quoted market prices in active markets. Other investments also include term loan investments for which fair values are estimated by using quoted prices of term loan investments with similar characteristics, pricing models or matrix pricing. Such investments are generally classified within Level 2. The fair values for certain of the Company’s other investments are determined using net asset values as advised by external fund managers. The net asset value is based on the fund manager’s valuation of the underlying holdings in accordance with the fund’s governing documents. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. One security is included in Level 3 due to the lack on available independent price source for such security. Derivative instruments The Company’s futures contracts, foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and other derivatives trade in the over-the-counter derivative market. The Company uses the market approach valuation technique to estimate the fair value for these derivatives based on significant observable market inputs from third party pricing vendors, non-binding broker-dealer quotes and/or recent trading activity. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for these derivative instruments are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. Short-term investments The Company determined that certain of its short-term investments held in highly liquid money market-type funds, Treasury bills and commercial paper would be included in Level 1 as their fair values are based on quoted market prices in active markets. The fair values of other short-term investments are generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve and are classified within Level 2. Contingent consideration liabilities Contingent consideration liabilities (included in ‘other liabilities’ in the consolidated balance sheets) include amounts related to the acquisition of CMG Mortgage Insurance Company and its affiliated mortgage insurance companies and other acquisitions. Such amounts are remeasured at fair value at each balance sheet date with changes in fair value recognized in ‘net realized gains (losses).’ To determine the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, the Company estimates future payments using an income approach based on modeled inputs which include a weighted average cost of capital. The Company determined that contingent consideration liabilities would be included within Level 3. The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level at June 30, 2017 : Estimated Fair Value Measurements Using: Estimated Fair Value Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets measured at fair value (1): Available for sale securities: Fixed maturities: Corporate bonds $ 4,262,411 $ — $ 4,250,841 $ 11,570 Mortgage backed securities 331,082 — 331,082 — Municipal bonds 2,618,827 — 2,618,827 — Commercial mortgage backed securities 521,272 — 521,272 — U.S. government and government agencies 3,425,196 3,360,752 64,444 — Non-U.S. government securities 1,375,796 — 1,375,796 — Asset backed securities 1,739,695 — 1,739,695 — Total 14,274,279 3,360,752 10,901,957 11,570 Equity securities 467,870 463,015 4,855 — Short-term investments 914,356 906,191 8,165 — Other investments 170,402 170,402 — — Other investments measured at net asset value (2) 78,259 Total other investments 248,661 170,402 — — Derivative instruments (4) 30,215 — 30,215 — Fair value option: Corporate bonds 749,399 — 749,399 — Non-U.S. government bonds 75,084 — 75,084 — Mortgage backed securities 19,812 — 19,812 — Asset backed securities 16,291 — 16,291 — U.S. government and government agencies 209,583 209,583 — — Short-term investments 527,384 524,167 3,217 — Equity securities 76,915 57,523 19,392 — Other investments 1,392,973 92,860 1,275,113 25,000 Other investments measured at net asset value (2) 750,792 Total 3,818,233 884,133 2,158,308 25,000 Total assets measured at fair value $ 19,753,614 $ 5,784,493 $ 13,103,500 $ 36,570 Liabilities measured at fair value: Contingent consideration liabilities $ (57,246 ) $ — $ — $ (57,246 ) Securities sold but not yet purchased (3) (69,273 ) — (69,273 ) — Derivative instruments (4) (35,004 ) — (35,004 ) — Total liabilities measured at fair value $ (161,523 ) $ — $ (104,277 ) $ (57,246 ) (1) In securities lending transactions, the Company receives collateral in excess of the fair value of the securities pledged.

Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, At Fair Value The Company uses various financial instruments in the normal course of its business. The carrying values of cash, accrued investment income, receivable for securities sold, certain other assets, payable for securities purchased and certain other liabilities approximated their fair values at June 30, 2017 , due to their respective short maturities. As these financial instruments are not actively traded, their respective fair values are classified within Level 2. At June 30, 2017 , the senior notes of ACGL were carried at their cost, net of debt issuance costs, of $297.0 million and had a fair value of $407.0 million , while the senior notes of Arch Capital Group (U.S.) Inc. (“Arch-U.S.”) were carried at their cost, net of debt issuance costs, of $494.6 million and had a fair value of $564.2 million . The senior notes of Arch Capital Finance LLC due in 2026 were carried at their cost, net of debt issuance costs, of $495.9 million and had a fair value of $518.2 million , while the senior notes due in 2046 were carried at their cost, net of debt issuance costs, of $445.1 million and had a fair value of $505.5 million . The fair values of the senior notes were obtained from a third party pricing service and are based on observable market inputs. As such, the fair values of the senior notes are classified within Level 2. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments | Derivative Instruments The Company’s investment strategy allows for the use of derivative instruments. The Company’s derivative instruments are recorded on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company utilizes exchange traded U.S. Treasury note, Eurodollar and other futures contracts and commodity futures to manage portfolio duration or replicate investment positions in its portfolios and the Company routinely utilizes foreign currency forward contracts, currency options, index futures contracts and other derivatives as part of its total return objective. In addition, certain of the Company’s investments are managed in portfolios which incorporate the use of foreign currency forward contracts which are intended to provide an economic hedge against foreign currency movements. In addition, the Company purchases to-be-announced mortgage backed securities (“TBAs”) as part of its investment strategy. TBAs represent commitments to purchase a future issuance of agency mortgage backed securities. For the period between purchase of a TBA and issuance of the underlying security, the Company’s position is accounted for as a derivative. The Company purchases TBAs in both long and short positions to enhance investment performance and as part of its overall investment strategy. The following table summarizes information on the fair values and notional values of the Company’s derivative instruments: Estimated Fair Value Asset Derivatives Liability Derivatives Notional Value (1) June 30, 2017 Futures contracts (2) $ 4,490 $ (9,988 ) $ 2,402,654 Foreign currency forward contracts (2) 13,854 (16,659 ) 1,068,430 TBAs (3) 4,970 — 4,978 Other (2) 11,871 (8,357 ) 1,747,025 Total $ 35,185 $ (35,004 ) December 31, 2016 Futures contracts (2) $ 360 $ (9,398 ) $ 1,655,530 Foreign currency forward contracts (2) 9,354 (12,941 ) 1,186,386 TBAs (3) — — — Other (2) 20,287 (3,710 ) 1,014,863 Total $ 30,001 $ (26,049 ) (1) Represents the absolute notional value of all outstanding contracts, consisting of long and short positions. (2) The fair value of asset derivatives are included in ‘other assets’ and the fair value of liability derivatives are included in ‘other liabilities.’ (3) The fair value of TBAs are included in ‘fixed maturities available for sale, at fair value.’ The Company did not hold any derivatives which were designated as hedging instruments at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016 . The Company’s derivative instruments can be traded under master netting agreements, which establish terms that apply to all derivative transactions with a counterparty. In the event of a bankruptcy or other stipulated event of default, such agreements provide that the non-defaulting party may elect to terminate all outstanding derivative transactions, in which case all individual derivative positions (loss or gain) with a counterparty are closed out and netted and replaced with a single amount, usually referred to as the termination amount, which is expressed in a single currency. The resulting single net amount, where positive, is payable to the party “in-the-money” regardless of whether or not it is the defaulting party, unless the parties have agreed that only the non-defaulting party is entitled to receive a termination payment where the net amount is positive and is in its favor. Contractual close-out netting reduces derivatives credit exposure from gross to net exposure. At June 30, 2017 , asset derivatives and liability derivatives of $33.1 million and $34.5 million , respectively, were subject to a master netting agreement, compared to $28.4 million and $26.0 million , respectively, at December 31, 2016 . The remaining derivatives included in the preceding table were not subject to a master netting agreement. All realized and unrealized contract gains and losses on the Company’s derivative instruments are reflected in net realized gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of income, as summarized in the following table: Derivatives not designated as June 30, hedging instruments: 2017 2016 Three Months Ended Net realized gains (losses): Futures contracts $ (5,310 ) $ 34,871 Foreign currency forward contracts (272 ) (13,782 ) TBAs 86 37 Other 726 (792 ) Total $ (4,770 ) $ 20,334 Six Months Ended Net realized gains (losses): Futures contracts $ 2,410 $ 61,322 Foreign currency forward contracts (12,038 ) (18,534 ) TBAs 21 334 Other (4,344 ) (2,056 ) Total $ (13,951 ) $ 41,066 |

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] | |
Share Transactions | Share Transactions Share-Based Compensation During the 2017 second quarter , the Company granted 492,466 stock options and 511,636 restricted shares and units to certain employees and directors with weighted average grant-date fair values of $24.66 and $96.28 , respectively. During the 2016 second quarter, the Company granted 427,379 stock options and 456,217 restricted shares and units to certain employees and directors with weighted average grant-date fair values of $17.46 and $71.61 , respectively. The stock options were valued at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Such values are being amortized over the respective substantive vesting period. For awards granted to retirement-eligible employees where no service is required for the employee to retain the award, the grant date fair value is immediately recognized as compensation expense at the grant date because the employee is able to retain the award without continuing to provide service. For employees near retirement eligibility, attribution of compensation cost is recognized over the period from the grant date to the retirement eligibility date. Share Repurchases The board of directors of ACGL has authorized the investment in ACGL’s common shares through a share repurchase program. Since the inception of the share repurchase program, ACGL has repurchased approximately 125.2 million common shares for an aggregate purchase price of $3.68 billion . For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company did not repurchase any shares under the share repurchase program, compared to 1.1 million common shares repurchased for the six months ended June 30, 2016 with an aggregate purchase price of $75.3 million (no repurchases in the 2016 second quarter ). At June 30, 2017 , $446.5 million of share repurchases were available under the program, which may be effected from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions through December 31, 2019. The timing and amount of the repurchase transactions under this program will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions and corporate and regulatory considerations. Conversion of Convertible Non-Voting Common Equivalent Preferred Shares On June 8, 2017, ACGL and AIG entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”) dated as of December 31, 2016 to amend the restrictions on transfers of the 1,276,282 shares of ACGL’s convertible non-voting common-equivalent preference shares owned by AIG (the “Convertible Preferred Shares”). The Convertible Preferred Shares were issued to AIG as part of the consideration in UGC acquisition. Pursuant to the certificate of designations for the Convertible Preferred Shares and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein, each Convertible Preferred Share is convertible into ten common shares of ACGL. Pursuant to the Amendment, ACGL permitted AIG to transfer: (i) 638,141 Convertible Preferred Shares from and after June 8, 2017, and up to an additional 95,721 of the Convertible Preferred Shares to the extent that the several underwriters exercise the option to purchase additional securities expected to be granted pursuant to an underwritten secondary offering of AGCL common shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Shares by AIG and (ii) any and all of the Convertible Preferred Shares from and after January 15, 2018, subject to certain exceptions, and in each case subject to the terms and conditions of the Investor Rights Agreement. All other terms of the Investor Rights Agreement remain in effect. In June 2017, ACGL completed an underwritten public secondary offering of 7,088,620 common shares by AIG following transfer of 708,862 Convertible Preferred Shares. Proceeds from the sale of common shares pursuant to the public offering were received by AIG. At June 30, 2017 , 567,420 Convertible Preferred Shares were outstanding. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company’s income tax provision on income before income taxes resulted in an expense of 11.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared to an expense of 6.7% for the 2016 period. The Company’s effective tax rate, which is based upon the expected annual effective tax rate, may fluctuate from period to period based on the relative mix of income or loss reported by jurisdiction and the varying tax rates in each jurisdiction. For interim reporting purposes, the Company has calculated its effective tax rate for the full year of 2017 by treating any excess tax benefits that arise from the accounting for stock based compensation as a discrete item. As such, this amount is not included when projecting the Company’s full year effective tax rate but rather is accounted for at the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35% after applying the projected full year effective tax rate to actual six-month results before the discrete item. The impact of the discrete item resulted in a benefit of 1.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . The Company had a net deferred tax asset of $221.1 million at June 30, 2017 , compared to $221.2 million at December 31, 2016 . In addition, the Company paid $3.9 million and $26.6 million of income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of presentation | The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of estimates | The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normally recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of results on an interim basis. The results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year or any future periods. |
