The Company has identified the following estimates as critical in that they involve a higher degree of judgment and are subject to a significant degree of variability: property and casualty reserves, net of reinsurance; life estimated gross profits used in the valuation and amortization of assets and liabilities associated with variable annuity and other universal life-type contracts; living benefits required to be fair valued; valuation of investments and derivative instruments; evaluation of other-than-temporary impairments on available-for-sale securities; pension and other postretirement benefit obligations; contingencies relating to corporate litigation and regulatory matters; and goodwill impairment. In developing these estimates management makes subjective and complex judgments that are inherently uncertain and subject to material change as facts and circumstances develop. Although variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts provided are appropriate based upon the facts available upon compilation of the financial statements.

Average liabilities for insurance products, net of reinsurance ceded were $12.1 billion in 2010, up 5.5 percent from 2009, and $11.5 billion in 2009, up 8.9 percent from 2008. The increase in such liabilities was primarily due to increases in annuity and health reserves resulting from new sales of these products.

Changes in our premium volume within our Specialty P&C segment are driven by four primary factors: (1) the amount of new business, (2) our retention of existing business, (3) the premium charged for business that is renewed, which is affected by rates charged and by the amount and type of coverage an insured chooses to purchase, and (4) the timing of premium written through multi-period policies. In addition, premium volume may periodically be affected by shifts in the timing of renewals between periods. The healthcare professional liability market, which accounts for a majority of the revenues in this segment, remains challenging as physicians continue joining hospitals or larger group practices and are thus no longer purchasing insurance in the standard market. In addition, some competitors have chosen to compete primarily on price; both factors impact our ability to write new business and retain existing business.

In the annuity business, where profitability is largely dependent on earning a spread between invested assets and annuity liabilities, the duration of investments is generally maintained close to that of liabilities. In a rising interest rate environment, significant protection from withdrawals exists in the form of temporary and permanent surrender charges on AFG’s annuity products. With declining rates, AFG receives some protection (from spread compression) due to the ability to lower crediting rates, subject to contractually guaranteed minimum interest rates (“GMIRs”). AFG began selling policies with GMIRs below 2% in 2003; almost all new business since late 2010 has been issued with a 1% GMIR. At December 31, 2016, AFG could reduce the average crediting rate on approximately $22 billion of traditional fixed and fixed-indexed annuities without guaranteed withdrawal benefits by approximately 80 basis points (on a weighted average basis). Annuity policies are subject to GMIRs at policy issuance. The table below shows the breakdown of annuity reserves by GMIR. The current interest crediting rates on substantially all of AFG’s annuities with a GMIR of 3% or higher are at their minimum.

The Company derives the majority of its business from four United States based primary financial guaranty insurance companies namely Financial Security Assurance Inc., MBIA Insurance Corp., Ambac Assurance Corp. and Financial Guaranty Insurance Co. The four primary insurers accounted for 30%, 22%, 25%, and 12% in 2006, for 31%, 31%, 27%, and 7% in 2005, and for 38%, 39%, 20%, and 1% in 2004 of gross premiums written. This customer concentration results from the small number of primary insurance companies that are licensed to write financial guaranty insurance. The majority of the Company’s gross premiums written are derived from treaty agreements that are renewed on an annual basis. One of the four United States based primary financial guaranty insurance companies identified above is also related parties. Description of the relationship is discussed in Note 18 “Related party transactions.”

- - in our income statement for 2001, we recorded a $669,000 dividend received from Jungfraubahn in investment income, and $241,000 of income in the line "Equity Share of Investees' Net Income" for the portion of the year when the equity method was applied; and - - in our balance sheet, we now record the investment at market value. At December 31, 2001, this was approximately $7.4 million less than our previous carrying value because the share price of Jungfraubahn is less than that company's book value per share (i.e., net assets). This caused a net reduction in shareholders' equity of approximately $6.8 million, or $0.55 per PICO share. This is a change in accounting treatment only, and does not reflect any change in the potential value of our investment in Jungfraubahn. See "Significant Accounting Policies" later in this section.

Credit risk continued Early problem identification and problem debt management continued Recoveries Once a loan has been identified as impaired it is managed by divisional recoveries functions. Their goal is to collect the total outstanding and reduce the Group’s loss by maximising cash recovery while treating customers fairly. Where an acceptable repayment arrangement cannot be agreed with the customer, litigation may be considered. In UK Retail and Northern Ireland, no repossession procedures are initiated until at least six months following the emergence of arrears. In the Republic of Ireland, new regulations prohibit taking legal action for an extended period. Additionally, certain forbearance options are made available to customers managed by the recoveries function.

The acquisition of BIG was funded with (a) senior debt financing in the amount of $110.0 million and (b) equity financing in the amount of $200.1 million. The senior debt financing was obtained pursuant to the terms of a Credit Agreement dated as of December 10, 1998, among SNIG, Chase, as administrative agent, and various lending institutions. In addition, we obtained a working capital credit facility under the terms of the Credit Agreement, and had $15.0 million in unused availability as of December 31, 1998. Prior to incurring the indebtedness, we obtained the consent of holders of the outstanding Trust Preferred Securities of the Trust, a subsidiary of SNIG, authorizing the Preferred Trustee of the Trust to waive a provision of the covenant limiting the incurrence of indebtedness set forth in the Senior Subordinated Indenture dated as of December 3, 1997 between SNIG, as issuer, and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee. This waiver was effected pursuant to the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 17, 1998, between SNIG and the Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee.

In reinsurance, measurement is carried out partly individually for each risk and partly collectively for reinsured portfolios, using biometric actuarial assumptions based on the tables of the national actuarial associations. These are adjusted for the respect­ ive reinsured portfolio, in line with the probabilities observed for the occurrence of an insured event. Discount rates are chosen that reflect the best estimate of expected investment income, less a safety margin. For the major part of the portfolio, these assumptions are fixed at the beginning of the contract and not changed over its duration.

DAC related to traditional life insurance is amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies in proportion to the estimated revenues on such business. Significant assumptions relating to estimated premiums, investment returns, which include investment income and realized capital gains and losses, as well as mortality, persistency and expenses to administer the business are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not revised during the life of the policy. The assumptions for determining DAC amortization are consistent with the assumptions used to calculate the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits. Any deviations from projected business in force resulting from actual policy terminations differing from expected levels and any estimated premium deficiencies may result in a change to the rate of amortization in the period such events occur. Generally, the amortization periods for these policies approximates the estimated lives of the policies. The recovery of DAC is dependent upon the future profitability of this business. We periodically review the adequacy of reserves and recoverability of DAC for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. We aggregate all products accounted for pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 60, "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises" ("SFAS No. 60"), in the analysis. In the event actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions, any remaining unamortized DAC balance must be expensed to the extent not recoverable and a premium deficiency reserve may be required if the remaining DAC

Due to our determination that we may not be able to fully realize the benefits of the net operating loss ("NOL") acquired in the purchase of American Indemnity Financial Corporation, which are only available to offset the future taxable income of our property and casualty insurance operations and are further limited as to the amount that can be utilized in any given year, we have recorded a valuation allowance against these NOLs. Based on a yearly review, we determine whether the benefit of the NOLs can be realized, and, if so, the decrease in the valuation allowance is recorded as a reduction to current federal income tax expense. If NOLs expire during the year, the decrease in the valuation allowance is offset with a corresponding decrease to the deferred income tax asset. The valuation allowance was reduced by $0.7 million in 2018 due to the realization of $3.1 million in NOLs. During 2018, the remaining NOL from the purchase of American Indemnity Financial Corporation was fully realized.

At December 31, 2008, the Company had unrealized losses of $137.9 million in investments in available-for-sale fixed income and equity securities of which $22.5 million was attributed to fixed income securities and $115.4 million was attributed to equity securities. The majority of the gross unrealized losses in the fixed income portfolio are attributable to municipal securities, substantially all of which are fully insured by Berkshire Hathaway Assurance Corp. for the payment of interest and principal in the event of issuer default. Gross unrealized losses of $115.4 million in the equity portfolio are attributable to 14 securities in an unrealized loss position, 13 of which have been in a loss position for less than six consecutive months. The decline in the fair value of the fixed income and equity securities is primarily due to an increase in credit spreads and a decline in equity markets resulting from the continuing financial market disruption. With respect to securities that were not impaired, the Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities in an unrealized loss position for a period of time sufficient to allow a market recovery, or to maturity if necessary.

We determined that, as of December 31, 2006, $650 of deferred tax assets did not satisfy the recognition criteria set forth in SFAS No. 109. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded for this amount. This valuation allowance primarily relates to the uncertainty of realizing certain state net operating loss carryforwards. In the future, if we determine that the realization of the net operating losses is more likely than not, the reversal of the related valuation allowance will reduce the provision for income taxes.

Derivative Assets and Derivative Liabilities - Level 1 measurement includes assets and liabilities comprised of exchange-traded derivatives. Valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are readily and regularly available. Level 2 measurement includes all types of derivative instruments utilized by the Company with the exception of exchange-traded derivatives. These derivatives are principally valued using an income approach. Valuations of interest rate contracts, non-option-based, are based on present value techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, LIBOR basis curves, and repurchase rates. Valuations of foreign currency contracts, non-option-based, are based on present value techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, LIBOR basis curves, currency spot rates, and cross currency basis curves. Valuations of credit contracts, non-option-based, are based on present value techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, credit curves, and recovery rates. Valuations of equity market contracts, non-option-based, are based on present value techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, spot equity index levels, and dividend yield curves. Valuations of equity market contracts, option-based, are based on option pricing models, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, spot equity index levels, dividend yield curves, and equity volatility.

As quantified in the table above, since the inception of the Company in 1993, while we have experienced adverse development from time to time, on a cumulative basis we have experienced $822.3 million of net favorable development on the run-off of our gross reserves within our catastrophe unit. This represents 16.6% of our initial estimated gross claims and claim expenses for accident years 2010 and prior of $5.0 billion and is calculated based on our estimates of claims and claim expense reserves as of December 31, 2011, compared to our initial estimates of ultimate claims and claim expenses, as of the end of each accident year. As described above, given the complexity in reserving for claims and claims expenses associated with catastrophe losses for property catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts, we have experienced development, both favorable and unfavorable, in any given accident year. For example, our 2005 accident year developed favorably by $201.5 million, which is 13.7% better than our initial estimates of claims and claim expenses for the 2005 accident year as estimated as of December 31, 2005, while our 2004 accident year developed unfavorably by $53.4 million, or negative 7.0%. In addition, our 2007 and 2008 accident years have developed favorably by $107.6 million and $117.6 million, respectively, or 43.7% and 19.6%, respectively. On a net basis our cumulative favorable or unfavorable development is generally reduced by offsetting changes in our reinsurance recoverables, as well as changes to loss related premiums such as reinstatement premiums, and redeemable noncontrolling interest for changes in claims and claim expenses that impact DaVinciRe, all of which generally move in the opposite direction to changes in our ultimate claims and claim expenses.

The Company’s goal is to ensure that its total reserves for property and casualty insurance losses and LAE are adequate to cover all costs, while sustaining minimal variation from the time reserves for losses and LAE are initially estimated until losses and LAE are fully paid. Changes in the Company’s estimates of these losses and LAE over time, also referred to as “development,” will occur and may be material. Favorable development is recognized and reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements when the Company decreases its previous estimate of ultimate losses and LAE and results in an increase in net income in the period recognized, whereas adverse development is recognized and reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements when the Company increases its previous estimate of ultimate losses and LAE and results in a decrease in net income.

For credit risks related to loans and advances to customers and banks, provisions are formed in the amount of expected loss according to homogeneous Group-wide standards. Risk of loss is deemed to exist if the discounted projected repayment amounts and interest payments are below the carrying value of the loan – taking collateral into account. Portfolio-based impairments are calculated using valuation models that estimate expected future cash flows for the loans in the respective loan portfolio based on loss experience history.

For our U.S. primary mortgage operations, reported delinquencies were 4.19% at December 31, 2020, compared to 4.69% at September 30, 2020. Delinquencies continue to be better than our expectations at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, delinquency rates remain at elevated levels, reflecting the impact of the recession and forbearance programs under the CARES Act (including any extensions) to borrowers experiencing a hardship during COVID-19. Forbearance allows for mortgage payments to be suspended for up to 18 months along with a suspension of foreclosures and evictions. See “Results of Operations-Mortgage Segment” for further details on our mortgage operations.

The potential impact of the loss reserve variability on net income can be illustrated using the range end points and carried reserve amounts listed above. For example, if ultimate losses reach a level corresponding to the high point of the range, $1,063.7 million, the reserve increase of $37.6 million corresponds to an after-tax decrease of $29.7 million in net income, assuming a tax rate of 21%. Likewise, should ultimate losses decline to a level corresponding to the low point of the range, $919.3 million, the $106.8 million reserve decrease would add $84.4 million of after-tax net income. The loss reserve range noted above represents a range of reasonably likely reserves, not a range of all possible reserves. Therefore, the ultimate losses could reach levels corresponding to reserve amounts outside the range provided.
