⁽¹⁾ Variable Portfolio – Loomis Sayles Growth Fund II (Class 1) merged into Variable Portfolio – Loomis Sayles Growth Fund (Class 1) on April 29, 2016.

⁽²⁾  For the period April 29, 2016 (commencement of operations) to Dec. 31, 2016.

The assets of each division of the Account are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of the business conducted by any other segregated asset account or by RiverSource Life of NY.

RiverSource Life of NY serves as issuer of the contract.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investments in the Funds

Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the shares are purchased and sold. Realized gains and losses on the sales of investments are computed using the average cost method. Income from dividends and gains from realized capital gain distributions are reinvested in additional shares of the Funds and are recorded as income by the divisions on the ex-dividend date.

RIVERSOURCE ENDEAVOR SELECT VARIABLE ANNUITY – 2016 ANNUAL REPORT 53

Unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments in the accompanying financial statements represents the division’s share of the Funds’ undistributed net investment income, undistributed realized gain or loss and the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on their investment securities.

The Account categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used by the Account to value investment securities. A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Prices or valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The Funds in the Accounts have been measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient and are not categorized in the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between levels in the period ended Dec. 31, 2016.

Variable Payout

Net assets allocated to contracts in the payout period are periodically compared to a computation which uses the Annuity 2000 Basic Mortality Table and which assumes future mortality improvement. The assumed investment return is 3.5% or 5% based on the annuitant’s election, or as regulated by the laws of the respective states. The mortality risk is fully borne by RiverSource Life of NY and may result in additional amounts being transferred into the variable annuity account by RiverSource Life of NY to cover greater longevity of annuitants than expected. Conversely, if amounts allocated exceed amounts required, transfers may be made to the insurance company.

Federal Income Taxes

RiverSource Life of NY is taxed as a life insurance company. The Account is treated as part of RiverSource Life of NY for federal income tax purposes. Under existing federal income tax law, no income taxes are payable with respect to any investment income of the Account to the extent the earnings are credited under the contracts. Based on this, no charge is being made currently to the Account for federal income taxes. RiverSource Life of NY will review periodically the status of this policy. In the event of changes in the tax law, a charge may be made in future years for any federal income taxes that would be attributable to the contracts.

Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated Account related events and transactions that occurred during the period from the date of the Statements of Assets and Liabilities through April 21, 2017. There were no events or transactions that occurred during the period that materially impacted the amounts or disclosures in the Account’s financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)

In May 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). ASU No. 2015-07 changes the disclosure requirements for investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual periods beginning after Dec. 15, 2015 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Account adopted the standard on Jan. 1, 2016. There was no impact of the standard to the Account’s financial condition or results of operations.

3.  VARIABLE ACCOUNT EXPENSES

For Endeavor Select contracts, RiverSource Life of NY deducts a daily mortality and expense risk fee equal, on an annual basis to a range from 0.90% to 1.55% of the average daily net assets of each subaccount depending on the contract and death benefit option selected.

54 RIVERSOURCE ENDEAVOR SELECT VARIABLE ANNUITY – 2016 ANNUAL REPORT

For Endeavor Select contracts, RiverSource Life of NY also deducts a daily charge equal, on an annual basis, to 0.15% of the average daily net assets of each subaccount as an administrative charge. This charge covers certain administrative and operating expenses of the subaccounts incurred by RiverSource Life of NY such as accounting, legal and data processing fees, and expenses involved in the preparation and distribution of reports and prospectuses.

⁽¹⁾  The accumulation unit values and total returns are based on the variable annuity contracts with the lowest and highest expense ratios.

⁽²⁾  These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the division from the underlying fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude variable account expenses that result in direct reductions in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the division is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the division invests. These ratios are annualized for periods less than one year.

⁽³⁾  These ratios represent the annualized contract expenses of the separate account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense charges, for each period indicated. The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying fund are excluded.

⁽⁴⁾  These amounts represent the total return for the periods indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying fund, and reflect deductions for all items included in the expense ratio. The total return does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. Investment options with a date notation indicate the effective date of that investment option in the variable account. The total return is calculated for the period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period. Although the total return is presented as a range of minimum to maximum values, based on the subaccounts representing the minimum and maximum expense ratio amounts, some individual subaccount total returns are not within the ranges presented due to the introduction of new subaccounts during the year and other market factors.

⁽⁵⁾  New subaccount operations commenced on April 27, 2012.

⁽⁶⁾  New subaccount operations commenced on Nov. 18, 2013.

⁽⁷⁾  New subaccount operations commenced on April 29, 2016.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York (the “Company”) is a stock life insurance company which is domiciled and holds a Certificate of Authority in the State of New York. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of RiverSource Life Insurance Company (“RiverSource Life”), which is domiciled in Minnesota. RiverSource Life is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (“Ameriprise Financial”). The Company issues insurance and annuity products to customers in the State of New York.

In 2016, the Company corrected the accrual of commission expense for periods prior to 2013 for certain insurance and annuity products. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 has been revised to reflect the immaterial impact of the correction which increased deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) by $245 thousand, other assets by $772 thousand, other liabilities by $2.5 million, and decreased retained earnings by $1.4 million. The impact to prior period financial statements was not material.

In 2016, the Company recorded a $1.2 million increase to long term care (“LTC”) reserves for an out-of-period correction related to its claim utilization assumption. The impact to prior period financial statements was not material.

The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) which vary in certain respects from reporting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York State Department of Financial Services (“New York Department”) (the Company’s primary regulator) as described in Note 14.

The Company evaluated events or transactions that may have occurred after the balance sheet date for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. No subsequent events or transactions were identified.

The Company’s principal products are variable deferred annuities, universal life (“UL”) insurance, including indexed universal life (“IUL”), and variable universal life (“VUL”) insurance which are issued primarily to individuals. Waiver of premium and accidental death benefit riders are generally available with the universal life products, in addition to other benefit riders. Variable annuity contract purchasers can choose to add optional benefit riders to their contracts, such as guaranteed minimum death benefit (“GMDB”), guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit (“GMWB”) and guaranteed minimum accumulation benefit (“GMAB”) riders.

The Company also offers immediate annuities, fixed deferred annuities, and traditional life and disability income (“DI”) insurance. The Company issues only non-participating life insurance policies which do not pay dividends to policyholders and contractholders.

A majority of the Company’s business is sold through the retail distribution channel of Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc. (“AFSI”), a subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial. RiverSource Distributors, Inc., a subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, serves as the principal underwriter and distributor of variable annuity and life insurance products issued by the Company.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Amounts Based on Estimates and Assumptions

Accounting estimates are an integral part of the Financial Statements. In part, they are based upon assumptions concerning future events. Among the more significant are those that relate to investment securities valuation and recognition of other-than-temporary impairments, DAC and the corresponding recognition of DAC amortization, valuation of derivative instruments and hedging activities, claims reserves and income taxes and the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. These accounting estimates reflect the best judgment of management and actual results could differ.

Investments

Available-for-Sale Securities

Available-for-Sale securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains (losses) recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of impacts to DAC, deferred sales inducement costs (“DSIC”), unearned revenue, benefit reserves, reinsurance recoverables and income taxes. Gains and losses are recognized on a trade date basis in the Statements of Income upon disposition of the securities.

When the fair value of an investment is less than its amortized cost, the Company assesses whether or not: (i) it has the intent to sell the security (made a decision to sell) or (ii) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. If either of these conditions exist, an other-than-temporary impairment is considered to have occurred and the Company recognizes an other-than-temporary impairment for the difference between the investment’s amortized cost and its fair value through earnings. For securities that do not meet the above criteria and the Company does not expect to recover a security’s amortized cost, the security is also considered other-than-temporarily impaired. For these securities, the Company separates the total impairment into the credit loss component and the amount of the loss related to other factors. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to credit loss is recognized in earnings.

The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of impacts to DAC, DSIC, unearned revenue, benefit reserves, reinsurance recoverables and income taxes. For Available-for-Sale securities that have recognized an other-than-temporary impairment through earnings, the difference between the amortized

F-7

cost and the cash flows expected to be collected is accreted as interest income if through subsequent evaluation there is a sustained increase in the cash flow expected. Subsequent increases and decreases in the fair value of Available-for-Sale securities are included in other comprehensive income.

The Company provides a supplemental disclosure on the face of its Statements of Income that presents: (i) total other-than-temporary impairment losses recognized during the period and (ii) the portion of other-than-temporary impairment losses recognized in other comprehensive income. The sum of these amounts represents the credit-related portion of other-than-temporary impairments that were recognized in earnings during the period. The portion of other-than-temporary losses recognized in other comprehensive income includes: (i) the portion of other-than-temporary impairment losses related to factors other than credit recognized during the period and (ii) reclassifications of other-than-temporary impairment losses previously determined to be related to factors other than credit that are determined to be credit-related in the current period. The amount presented on the Statements of Income as the portion of other-than-temporary losses recognized in other comprehensive income excludes subsequent increases and decreases in the fair value of these securities.

For all securities that are considered temporarily impaired, the Company does not intend to sell these securities (has not made a decision to sell) and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. The Company believes that it will collect all principal and interest due on all investments that have amortized cost in excess of fair value that are considered only temporarily impaired.

Factors the Company considers in determining whether declines in the fair value of fixed maturity securities are other-than-temporary include: (i) the extent to which the market value is below amortized cost; (ii) the duration of time in which there has been a significant decline in value; (iii) fundamental analysis of the liquidity, business prospects and overall financial condition of the issuer; and (iv) market events that could impact credit ratings, economic and business climate, litigation and government actions, and similar external business factors. In order to determine the amount of the credit loss component for corporate debt securities considered other-than-temporarily impaired, a best estimate of the present value of cash flows expected to be collected discounted at the security’s effective interest rate is compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. The significant inputs to cash flow projections consider potential debt restructuring terms, projected cash flows available to pay creditors and the Company’s position in the debtor’s overall capital structure.

For structured investments (e.g., residential mortgage backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities and asset backed securities), the Company also considers factors such as overall deal structure and its position within the structure, quality of underlying collateral, delinquencies and defaults, loss severities, recoveries, prepayments and cumulative loss projections in assessing potential other-than-temporary impairments of these investments. Based upon these factors, securities that have indicators of potential other-than-temporary impairment are subject to detailed review by management. Securities for which declines are considered temporary continue to be monitored by management until management determines there is no current risk of an other-than-temporary impairment.

Commercial Mortgage Loans, net

Commercial mortgage loans, net reflect the Company’s interest in commercial mortgage loans, less the related allowance for loan losses.

Policy Loans

Policy loans include life insurance policy and annuity loans and are reported at the unpaid principal balance, plus accrued interest.

Financing Receivables

Commercial Mortgage Loans

Commercial mortgage loans are stated at amortized cost, net of allowances for loan losses.

Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balances of the loans as earned.

Policy Loans

When originated, policy loan balances do not exceed the cash surrender value of the underlying products. As there is minimal risk of loss related to these loans, the Company does not record an allowance for loan losses for policy loans.

Nonaccrual Loans

Generally, loans are evaluated for or placed on nonaccrual status when either the collection of interest or principal has become 90 days past due or is otherwise considered doubtful of collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest payments received on loans on nonaccrual status are generally applied to principal unless the remaining principal balance has been determined to be fully collectible.

Commercial mortgage loans are evaluated for impairment when the loan is considered for nonaccrual status, restructured or foreclosure proceedings are initiated on the property. If it is determined that the fair value is less than the current loan balance, it is written down to fair value less estimated selling costs. Foreclosed property is recorded as real estate owned in other investments.

  F-8

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

Allowance for Loan Losses

Management determines the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on the overall loan portfolio composition, recent and historical loss experience, and other pertinent factors, including when applicable, internal risk ratings, loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratios and occupancy rates, along with economic and market conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates, which may be susceptible to significant change.

The Company determines the amount of the allowance based on management’s assessment of relative risk characteristics of the loan portfolio. The allowance is recorded for homogeneous loan categories on a pool basis, based on an analysis of product mix and risk characteristics of the portfolio, including geographic concentration, bankruptcy experiences, and historical losses, adjusted for current trends and market conditions.

While the Company attributes portions of the allowance to specific loan pools as part of the allowance estimation process, the entire allowance is available to absorb losses inherent in the total loan portfolio. The allowance is increased through provisions charged to net realized investment gains (losses) and reduced/increased by net charge-offs/recoveries.

Impaired Loans

The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due (both interest and principal) according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans may also include loans that have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as a concession to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. Management evaluates for impairment all restructured loans and loans with higher impairment risk factors. Factors used by the Company to determine whether all amounts due on commercial mortgage loans will be collected, include but are not limited to, the financial condition of the borrower, performance of the underlying properties, collateral and/or guarantees on the loan, and the borrower’s estimated future ability to pay based on property type and geographic location. The impairment recognized is measured as the excess of the loan’s recorded investment over: (i) the present value of its expected principal and interest payments discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (ii) the fair value of collateral; or (iii) the loan’s observable market price.

Restructured Loans

A loan is classified as a restructured loan when the Company makes certain concessionary modifications to contractual terms for borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. When the interest rate, minimum payments and/or due dates have been modified in an attempt to make the loan more affordable to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties, the modification is considered a troubled debt restructuring. Generally, performance prior to the restructuring or significant events that coincide with the restructuring are considered in assessing whether the borrower can meet the new terms which may result in the loan being returned to accrual status at the time of the restructuring or after a performance period. If the borrower’s ability to meet the revised payment schedule is not reasonably assured, the loan remains on nonaccrual status.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less.

Reinsurance

The Company cedes insurance risk to other insurers under reinsurance agreements. The Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers prior to entering into new reinsurance contracts and on a periodic basis during the contract term.

Reinsurance premiums paid and benefits received are accounted for consistently with the basis used in accounting for the policies from which risk is reinsured and consistently with the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Reinsurance premiums for traditional life, LTC and DI, net of the change in any prepaid reinsurance asset, are reported as a reduction of premiums. UL and VUL reinsurance premiums are reported as a reduction of policy and contract charges. In addition, for UL and VUL insurance policies, the net cost of reinsurance ceded, which represents the discounted amount of the expected cash flows between the reinsurer and the Company, is classified as an asset or contra asset and amortized over the estimated life of the policies in proportion to the estimated gross profits and is subject to retrospective adjustment in a manner similar to retrospective adjustment of DAC. The assumptions used to project the expected cash flows are consistent with those used for DAC valuation for the same contracts. Changes in the net cost of reinsurance are reflected as a component of policy and contract charges. Reinsurance recoveries are reported as components of benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses.

Insurance liabilities are reported before the effects of reinsurance. Policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims recoverable under reinsurance contracts are recorded as reinsurance recoverables.

The Company also assumes life insurance and fixed annuity risk from other insurers in limited circumstances. Reinsurance premiums received and benefits paid are accounted for consistently with the basis used in accounting for the policies from which risk is reinsured and consistently with the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Liabilities for assumed business are recorded within policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims.

See Note 8 for additional information on reinsurance.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Freestanding derivative instruments are recorded at fair value and are reflected in other assets or other liabilities. The Company’s policy is to not offset fair value amounts recognized for derivatives and collateral arrangements executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting arrangement. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on its intended use and the resulting hedge designation, if any. The Company primarily uses derivatives as economic hedges that are not designated as accounting hedges or do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

Derivative instruments that are entered into for hedging purposes are designated as such at the time the Company enters into the contract. For all derivative instruments that are designated for hedging activities, the Company documents all of the hedging relationships between the hedge instruments and the hedged items at the inception of the relationships. Management also documents its risk management objectives and strategies for entering into the hedge transactions. The Company assesses, at inception and on a quarterly basis, whether derivatives designated as hedges are highly effective in offsetting the fair value or cash flows of hedged items. If it is determined that a derivative is no longer highly effective as a hedge, the Company will discontinue the application of hedge accounting.

For derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting or are not designated as accounting hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in current period earnings. Changes in fair value of derivatives are presented in the Statements of Income based on the nature and use of the instrument. Changes in fair value of derivatives used as economic hedges are presented in the Statements of Income with the corresponding change in the hedged asset or liability.

The equity component of IUL obligations is considered an embedded derivative. Additionally, certain annuities contain GMAB and GMWB provisions. The GMAB and the non-life contingent benefits associated with GMWB provisions are also considered embedded derivatives.

See Note 12 for information regarding the Company’s fair value measurement of derivative instruments and Note 15 for the impact of derivatives on the Statements of Income.

Deferred Acquisition Costs

The Company incurs costs in connection with acquiring new and renewal insurance and annuity businesses. The portion of these costs which are incremental and direct to the acquisition of a new or renewal insurance policy or annuity contract are deferred. Significant costs capitalized include sales based compensation related to the acquisition of new and renewal insurance policies and annuity contracts, medical inspection costs for successful sales, and a portion of employee compensation and benefit costs based upon the amount of time spent on successful sales. Sales based compensation paid to AFSI advisors and employees and third-party distributors is capitalized. Employee compensation and benefits costs which are capitalized relate primarily to sales efforts, underwriting and processing. All other costs which are not incremental direct costs of acquiring an insurance policy or annuity contract are expensed as incurred. The DAC associated with insurance policies or annuity contracts that are significantly modified or internally replaced with another contract are accounted for as contract terminations. These transactions are anticipated in establishing amortization periods and other valuation assumptions.

The Company monitors other principal DAC amortization assumptions, such as persistency, mortality, morbidity, interest margin, variable annuity benefit utilization and maintenance expense levels each quarter and, when assessed independently, each could impact the Company’s DAC balances.

The analysis of DAC balances and the corresponding amortization is a dynamic process that considers all relevant factors and assumptions described previously. Unless the Company’s management identifies a significant deviation over the course of the quarterly monitoring, management reviews and updates these DAC amortization assumptions annually in the third quarter of each year.

Non-Traditional Long-Duration Products

For non-traditional long-duration products (including variable and fixed annuity contracts, UL and VUL insurance products), DAC are amortized based on projections of estimated gross profits (“EGPs”) over amortization periods equal to the approximate life of the business.

EGPs vary based on persistency rates (assumptions at which contractholders and policyholders are expected to surrender, make withdrawals from and make deposits to their contracts), mortality levels, client asset value growth rates (based on equity and bond market performance), variable annuity benefit utilization and interest margins (the spread between earned rates on invested assets and rates credited to contractholder and policyholder accounts) and are management’s best estimates. Management regularly monitors financial market conditions and actual contractholder and policyholder behavior experience and compares them to its assumptions. These assumptions are updated whenever it appears that earlier estimates should be revised. When assumptions are changed, the percentage of EGPs used to amortize DAC might also change. A change in the required amortization percentage is applied retrospectively; an increase in amortization percentage will result in a decrease in the DAC balance and an increase in DAC amortization expense, while a decrease in amortization percentage will result in an increase in the DAC balance and a decrease in DAC amortization expense. The impact on results of operations of changing assumptions can be either positive or negative in any particular period and is reflected in the period in which such changes are made.

  F-10

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

The client asset value growth rates are the rates at which variable annuity and VUL insurance contract values invested in separate accounts are assumed to appreciate in the future. The rates used vary by equity and fixed income investments. Management reviews and, where appropriate, adjusts its assumptions with respect to client asset value growth rates on a regular basis. The Company typically uses a five-year mean reversion process as a guideline in setting near-term equity fund growth rates based on a long-term view of financial market performance as well as recent actual performance. The suggested near-term equity fund growth rate is reviewed quarterly to ensure consistency with management’s assessment of anticipated equity market performance. DAC amortization expense recorded in a period when client asset value growth rates exceed management’s near-term estimate will typically be less than in a period when growth rates fall short of management’s near-term estimate.

Traditional Long-Duration Products

For traditional long-duration products (including traditional life and DI insurance products), DAC are generally amortized as a percentage of premiums over amortization periods equal to the premium paying period. LTC DAC was impaired in prior years as a result of loss recognition. The assumptions made in calculating the DAC balance and DAC amortization expense are consistent with those used in determining the liabilities.

For traditional life and DI insurance products, the assumptions provide for adverse deviations in experience and are revised only if management concludes experience will be so adverse that DAC are not recoverable. If management concludes that DAC are not recoverable, DAC are reduced to the amount that is recoverable based on best estimate assumptions and there is a corresponding expense recorded in the Statements of Income.

Deferred Sales Inducement Costs

Sales inducement costs consist of bonus interest credits and premium credits added to certain annuity contract and insurance policy values. These benefits are capitalized to the extent they are incremental to amounts that would be credited on similar contracts without the applicable feature. The amounts capitalized are amortized using the same methodology and assumptions used to amortize DAC. DSIC is recorded in other assets and amortization of DSIC is recorded in benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses.

Separate Account Assets and Liabilities

Separate account assets and liabilities are primarily funds held for the benefit of variable annuity contractholders and variable life insurance policyholders, who have a contractual right to receive the benefits of their contract or policy and bear the related investment risk. Gains and losses on separate account assets accrue directly to the contractholder or policyholder and are not reported in the Company’s Statements of Income. Separate account assets are recorded at fair value. Changes in the fair value of separate account assets are offset by changes in the related separate account liabilities.

Policyholder Account Balances, Future Policy Benefits and Claims

The Company establishes reserves to cover the risks associated with non-traditional and traditional long-duration products. Reserves for non-traditional long-duration products include the liabilities related to guaranteed benefit provisions added to variable annuity contracts, variable and fixed annuity contracts and UL and VUL policies and the embedded derivatives related to variable annuity contracts and IUL insurance. Reserves for traditional long-duration products are established to provide adequately for future benefits and expenses for term life, whole life, DI and LTC insurance products.

The establishment of reserves is an estimation process using a variety of methods, assumptions and data elements. If actual experience is better than or equal to the results of the estimation process, then reserves should be adequate to provide for future benefits and expenses. If actual experience is worse than the results of the estimation process, additional reserves may be required.

Changes in future policy benefits and claims are reflected in earnings in the period adjustments are made. Where applicable, benefit amounts expected to be recoverable from reinsurance companies who share in the risk are separately recorded as reinsurance recoverable within receivables.

Non-Traditional Long-Duration Products

The liabilities for non-traditional long-duration products include fixed account values on variable and fixed annuities and UL and VUL policies, liabilities for guaranteed benefits associated with variable annuities and embedded derivatives for variable annuities and IUL products.

Liabilities for fixed account values on variable and fixed deferred annuities and UL and VUL policies are equal to accumulation values, which are the cumulative gross deposits and credited interest less withdrawals and various charges.

A portion of the Company’s UL and VUL policies have product features that result in profits followed by losses from the insurance component of the contract. These profits followed by losses can be generated by the cost structure of the product or secondary guarantees in the contract. The secondary guarantee ensures that, subject to specified conditions, the policy will not terminate and will continue to provide a death benefit even if there is insufficient policy value to cover the monthly deductions and charges. The liability for these future losses is determined by estimating the death benefits in excess of account value and

F-11  

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

recognizing the excess over the estimated life based on expected assessments (e.g. cost of insurance charges, contractual administrative charges, similar fees and investment margin). See Note 10 for information regarding the liability for contracts with secondary guarantees.

Liabilities for indexed accounts of IUL products are equal to the accumulation of host contract values covering guaranteed benefits and the fair value of embedded equity options.

The majority of the variable annuity contracts offered by the Company contain GMDB provisions. When market values of the customer’s accounts decline, the death benefit payable on a contract with a GMDB may exceed the contract accumulation value. The Company also offers contracts containing GMWB and GMAB provisions, and until May 2007, the Company offered contracts containing guaranteed minimum income benefit (“GMIB”) provisions. See Note 10 for information regarding the variable annuity guarantees.

The GMDB liability is determined by estimating the expected value of death benefits in excess of the projected contract accumulation value and recognizing the excess over the estimated life based on expected assessments (e.g., mortality and expense fees, contractual administrative charges and similar fees).

If elected by the contract owner and after a stipulated waiting period from contract issuance, a GMIB guarantees a minimum lifetime annuity based on a specified rate of contract accumulation value growth and predetermined annuity purchase rates. The GMIB liability is determined each period by estimating the expected value of annuitization benefits in excess of the projected contract accumulation value at the date of annuitization and recognizing the excess over the estimated life based on expected assessments.

The liability for the life contingent benefits associated with GMWB provisions is determined by estimating the expected value of benefits that are contingent upon survival after the account value is equal to zero and recognizing the benefits over the estimated life based on expected assessments (e.g., mortality and expense fees, contractual administrative charges and similar fees).

In determining the liabilities for GMDB, GMIB and the life contingent benefits associated with GMWB, the Company projects these benefits and contract assessments using actuarial models to simulate various equity market scenarios. Significant assumptions made in projecting future benefits and assessments relate to customer asset value growth rates, mortality, persistency, benefit utilization and investment margins and are consistent with those used for DAC valuation for the same contracts. As with DAC, management reviews and, where appropriate, adjusts its assumptions each quarter. Unless management identifies a material deviation over the course of quarterly monitoring, management reviews and updates these assumptions annually in the third quarter of each year.

The fair value of embedded derivatives related to GMAB and the non-life contingent benefits associated with GMWB provisions fluctuates based on equity, interest rate and credit markets and the estimate of the Company’s current nonperformance risk, which can cause these embedded derivatives to be either an asset or a liability. See Note 12 for information regarding the fair value measurement of embedded derivatives.

Liabilities for fixed annuities in a benefit or payout status are based on future estimated payments using established industry mortality tables and interest rates.

Traditional Long-Duration Products

The liabilities for traditional long-duration products include liabilities for unpaid amounts on reported claims, estimates of benefits payable on claims incurred but not yet reported and estimates of benefits that will become payable on term life, whole life, DI and LTC policies as claims are incurred in the future.

Liabilities for unpaid amounts on reported life insurance claims are equal to the death benefits payable under the policies.

Liabilities for unpaid amounts on reported DI and LTC claims include any periodic or other benefit amounts due and accrued, along with estimates of the present value of obligations for continuing benefit payments. These unpaid amounts are calculated using anticipated claim continuance rates based on established industry tables, adjusted as appropriate for the Company’s experience. The discount rates used to calculate present values are based on average interest rates earned on assets supporting the liability for unpaid amounts.

Liabilities for estimated benefits payable on claims that have been incurred but not yet reported are based on periodic analysis of the actual time lag between when a claim occurs and when it is reported.

Liabilities for estimates of benefits that will become payable on future claims on term life, whole life, DI and LTC insurance policies are based on the net level premium method, using anticipated premium payments, mortality and morbidity rates, policy persistency and interest rates earned on assets supporting the liability. Anticipated mortality and morbidity rates are based on established industry mortality and morbidity tables, with modifications based on the Company’s experience. Anticipated premium payments and persistency rates vary by policy form, issue age, policy duration and certain other pricing factors.

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

For term life, whole life, DI and LTC policies, the Company utilizes best estimate assumptions as of the date the policy is issued with provisions for the risk of adverse deviation, as appropriate. After the liabilities are initially established, management performs premium deficiency tests using best estimate assumptions without provisions for adverse deviation annually in the third quarter of each year unless management identifies a material deviation over the course of quarterly monitoring. If the liabilities determined based on these best estimate assumptions are greater than the net reserves (i.e., GAAP reserves net of any DAC balance), the existing net reserves are adjusted by first reducing the DAC balance by the amount of the deficiency or to zero through a charge to current period earnings. If the deficiency is more than the DAC balance, then the net reserves are increased by the excess through a charge to current period earnings. If a premium deficiency is recognized, the assumptions as of the date of the loss recognition are locked in and used in subsequent periods. The assumptions for LTC insurance products are management’s best estimate as of the date of loss recognition and thus no longer provide for adverse deviations in experience.

See Note 9 for information regarding the liabilities for traditional long-duration products.

Unearned Revenue Liability

The Company’s UL and VUL policies require payment of fees or other policyholder assessments in advance for services to be provided in future periods. These charges are deferred as unearned revenue and amortized using estimated gross profits, similar to DAC. The unearned revenue liability is recorded in other liabilities and the amortization is recorded in policy and contract charges.

Income Taxes

The Company qualifies as a life insurance company for federal income tax purposes. As such, the Company is subject to the Internal Revenue Code provisions applicable to life insurance companies.

The taxable income of the Company and its parent, RiverSource Life, is included in the consolidated federal income tax return of Ameriprise Financial. Ameriprise Financial provides for income taxes on a separate return basis, except that, under an agreement between Ameriprise Financial and the Company, tax benefits are recognized for losses to the extent they can be used in the consolidated return. It is the policy of Ameriprise Financial that it will reimburse its subsidiaries for any tax benefits recorded.

The Company’s provision for income taxes represents the net amount of income taxes that the Company expects to pay or to receive from various taxing jurisdictions in connection with its operations. The Company provides for income taxes based on amounts that the Company believes it will ultimately owe taking into account the recognition and measurement for uncertain tax positions. Inherent in the provision for income taxes are estimates and judgments regarding the tax treatment of certain items.

In connection with the provision for income taxes, the Financial Statements reflect certain amounts related to deferred tax assets and liabilities, which result from temporary differences between the assets and liabilities measured for financial statement purposes versus the assets and liabilities measured for tax return purposes.

The Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for any portion of its deferred tax assets that management believes will not be realized. Significant judgment is required in determining if a valuation allowance should be established and the amount of such allowance if required. Factors used in making this determination include estimates relating to the performance of the business. Consideration is given to, among other things in making this determination: (i) future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards; (ii) future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences; (iii) taxable income in prior carryback years; and (iv) tax planning strategies. Management may need to identify and implement appropriate planning strategies to ensure its ability to realize deferred tax assets and reduce the likelihood of the establishment of a valuation allowance with respect to such assets. See Note 18 for additional information on the Company’s valuation allowance determination.

Revenue Recognition

Premiums on traditional life, DI and LTC insurance products and immediate annuities with a life contingent feature are net of reinsurance ceded and are recognized as revenue when due.

Interest income is accrued as earned using the effective interest method, which makes an adjustment of the yield for security premiums and discounts on all performing fixed maturity securities classified as Available-for-Sale so that the related security or loan recognizes a constant rate of return on the outstanding balance throughout its term.

Mortality and expense risk fees are generated directly and indirectly based on a percentage of the fair value of assets held in the Company’s separate accounts and recognized when assessed. Variable annuity guaranteed benefit rider charges, cost of insurance charges on UL and VUL insurance and contract charges (net of reinsurance premiums and cost of reinsurance for universal life insurance products) and surrender charges on annuities and UL and VUL insurance are recognized as revenue when assessed.

Realized gains and losses on the sale of securities are recognized using the specific identification method, on a trade date basis.

Fees received under marketing support and distribution services arrangements are recognized as revenue when earned.

3.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Fair Value Measurement — Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)

In May 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated the accounting standards related to fair value measurement. The update applies to investments that are measured at net asset value (“NAV”). The standard eliminates the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the NAV per share as a practical expedient. In addition, the update limits disclosures about the nature and risks of the investments to investments for which the entity elected to measure the fair value using the practical expedient rather than all investments that are eligible for the NAV practical expedient. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2016 on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. There was no impact of the standard to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Future Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Income Taxes — Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory

In October 2016, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to the recognition of income tax impacts on intra-entity transfers. The update requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers, other than inventory, upon the transfer of the asset. The update requires the selling entity to recognize a current tax expense or benefit and the purchasing entity to recognize a deferred tax asset or liability when the transfer occurs. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its financial condition and results of operations.

Statement of Cash Flows — Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments

In August 2016, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments on the statement of cash flows. The update includes amendments to address diversity in practice for the classification of eight specific cash flow activities. The specific amendments the Company is evaluating include the classification of debt prepayment and extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments, proceeds from insurance settlements and corporate owned life insurance settlements, distributions from equity method investees and the application of the predominance principle to separately identifiable cash flows. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted and all amendments must be adopted during the same period. The Company will early adopt the standard for the annual period ending December 31, 2017 on a retrospective basis. The adoption of the standard will not have a material impact on the Company’s cash flows.

Financial Instruments — Measurement of Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to accounting for credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. The update replaces the current incurred loss model for estimating credit losses with a new model that requires an entity to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of the asset. Generally, the initial estimate of the expected credit losses and subsequent changes in the estimate will be reported in current period earnings and recorded through an allowance for credit losses on the balance sheet. The current credit loss model for Available-for-Sale debt securities does not change; however, the credit loss calculation and subsequent recoveries are required to be recorded through an allowance. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption will be permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. A modified retrospective cumulative adjustment to retained earnings should be recorded as of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective for loans, receivables, and other financial instruments subject to the new expected credit loss model. Prospective adoption is required for establishing an allowance related to Available-for-Sale debt securities, certain beneficial interests, and financial assets purchased with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its financial condition and results of operations.

Leases — Recognition of Lease Assets and Liabilities on Balance Sheet

In February 2016, the FASB updated the accounting standards for leases. The update was issued to increase transparency and comparability for the accounting of lease transactions. The standard will require most lease transactions for lessees to be recorded on the balance sheet as lease assets and lease liabilities and both quantitative and qualitative disclosures about leasing arrangements. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The update should be applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its financial condition and results of operations.

Financial Instruments — Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In January 2016, the FASB updated the accounting standards on the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The update requires entities to carry marketable equity securities, excluding investments in securities that qualify for the equity

  F-14

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

method of accounting, at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in net income each reporting period. The update affects other aspects of accounting for equity instruments, as well as the accounting for financial liabilities utilizing the fair value option. The update eliminates the requirement to disclose the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial assets or liabilities held at cost on the balance sheet and requires entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for certain provisions. Generally, the update should be applied using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity at the beginning of the period of adoption. The update is not expected to have a material impact on the financial condition and results of operations.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB updated the accounting standards for revenue from contracts with customers. The update provides a five step revenue recognition model for all revenue arising from contracts with customers and affects all entities that enter into contracts to provide goods or services to their customers (unless the contracts are in the scope of other standards). The standard also updates the accounting for certain costs associated with obtaining and fulfilling a customer contract and requires disclosure of quantitative and qualitative information that enables users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Subsequent related updates provide clarification on certain revenue recognition guidance in the new standard. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The standard may be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or retrospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment at the date of adoption. The Company plans to adopt the revenue recognition guidance in 2018. The update does not apply to revenue associated with the manufacturing of insurance and annuity products or financial instruments as these revenues are in the scope of other standards. Therefore, the Company does not expect the update to have an impact on these revenues. The Company’s implementation efforts include the identification of revenue within the guidance and review of the customer contracts to determine the Company’s performance obligation and the associated timing of each performance obligation. The Company is reviewing certain payments received to determine whether they should be presented as revenue or as a reduction of expense. The Company does not expect a material impact to the timing of revenue recognition; however, the Company’s implementation effort to assess the impact of the standard on its financial condition, results of operations, and disclosure is still in process.

4.  VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

The Company invests in structured investments which are considered variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which it is not the sponsor. These structured investments typically invest in fixed income instruments and are managed by third parties and include asset backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities and residential mortgage backed securities. The Company classifies these investments as Available-for-Sale securities. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of these structures due to the size of the Company’s investment in the entities and position in the capital structure of these entities. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investment in these structured investments is limited to its carrying value. The carrying value is included in Available-for-Sale fixed maturities on the Balance Sheets. The Company has no obligation to provide financial or other support to the structured investments beyond its investment nor has the Company provided any support to the structured investments. See Note 5 for additional information on these structured investments.

Amount includes unrealized gains and losses on impaired securities subsequent to the initial impairment measurement date. These amounts are included in gross unrealized gains and losses as of the end of the period.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, investment securities with a fair value of $55.3 million and $61.0 million, respectively, were pledged to meet contractual obligations under derivative contracts, of which $12.6 million and $24.4 million, respectively, may be sold, pledged or rehypothecated by the counterparty.

As of both December 31, 2016 and 2015, fixed maturity securities comprised approximately 91% of the Company’s total investments. Rating agency designations are based on the availability of ratings from Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (“NRSROs”), including Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings Ltd. (“Fitch”). The Company uses the median of available ratings from Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, or if fewer than three ratings are available, the lower rating is used. When ratings from Moody’s, S&P and Fitch are unavailable, the Company may utilize ratings from other NRSROs or rate the securities internally. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, approximately $124.5 million and $132.7 million, respectively, of securities were internally rated by Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (“CMIA”), an affiliate of the Company, using criteria similar to those used by NRSROs.

A summary of fixed maturity securities by rating was as follows:

6.  FINANCING RECEIVABLES

The Company’s financing receivables include commercial mortgage loans and policy loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Policy loans do not exceed the cash surrender value of the policy at origination. As there is minimal risk of loss related to policy loans, the Company does not record an allowance for loan losses for policy loans.

The following table presents a rollforward of the allowance for loan losses for commercial mortgage loans for the years ended and the ending balance of the allowance for loan losses by impairment method:

Collectively evaluated for impairment	$	133,771	$	137,490

As of both December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had no recorded investment in financing receivables that were individually evaluated for impairment.

Credit Quality Information

Nonperforming loans, which are generally loans 90 days or more past due, were nil as of both December 31, 2016 and 2015. All loans were considered to be performing.

Commercial Mortgage Loans

The Company reviews the credit worthiness of the borrower and the performance of the underlying properties in order to determine the risk of loss on commercial mortgage loans. Based on this review, the commercial mortgage loans are assigned an internal risk rating, which management updates as necessary. There were no commercial mortgage loans which management has assigned its highest risk rating at both December 31, 2016 and 2015. Loans with the highest risk rating represent distressed loans which the Company has identified as impaired or expects to become delinquent or enter into foreclosure within the next six months. In addition, the Company reviews the concentrations of credit risk by region and property type.

7.  DEFERRED ACQUISITION COSTS AND DEFERRED SALES INDUCEMENT COSTS

In the third quarter of the year, management conducts its annual review of insurance and annuity valuation assumptions relative to current experience and management expectations. To the extent that expectations change as a result of this review, management updates valuation assumptions. The impact of unlocking for the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily reflected continued low interest rates that more than offset benefits from persistency on annuity contracts without living benefits. In addition, the Company’s review of its closed LTC business resulted in loss recognition due to continued low interest rates and higher morbidity. The impact of unlocking for the year ended December 31, 2015 primarily reflected the difference between the Company’s previously assumed interest rates versus the low interest rate environment partially offset by improved persistency. The impact of unlocking for the year ended December 31, 2014 primarily reflected lower than previously assumed interest rates partially offset by improved persistency and mortality experience and a benefit from updating the Company’s variable annuity living benefit withdrawal utilization assumption.

8.  REINSURANCE

The Company reinsures a portion of the insurance risks associated with its traditional life, DI and LTC insurance products through reinsurance agreements with unaffiliated reinsurance companies. Reinsurance contracts do not relieve the Company from its primary obligation to policyholders.

The Company generally reinsures 90% of the death benefit liability for new term life insurance policies beginning in 2002 and new individual UL and VUL insurance policies beginning in 2003. Policies issued prior to these dates are not subject to these same reinsurance levels.

However, for IUL policies issued after September 1, 2013 and VUL policies issued after January 1, 2014, the Company generally reinsures 50% of the death benefit liability.

The maximum amount of life insurance risk the Company will retain is $10 million on a single life and $10 million on any flexible premium survivorship life policy; however, reinsurance agreements are in place such that retaining more than $1.5 million of insurance risk on a single life or a flexible premium survivorship life policy is very unusual. Risk on UL and VUL policies is reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis. Risk on most term life policies starting in 2002 is reinsured on a coinsurance basis, a type of reinsurance in which the reinsurer participates proportionally in all material risks and premiums associated with a policy.

The Company also has life insurance and fixed annuity risk previously assumed under reinsurance arrangements with an unaffiliated insurance company.

As of December 31, 2002, the Company discontinued underwriting LTC insurance. For existing LTC policies, the Company has continued ceding 50% of the risk on a coinsurance basis to Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York (“Genworth”) and retains the remaining risk. This reinsurance arrangement applies for 1996 and later issues only.

Generally, the Company retains at most $5,000 per month of risk per life on DI policies sold on policy forms introduced in 2010 and reinsures the remainder of the risk on a coinsurance basis with unaffiliated reinsurance companies. The Company retains all risk for new claims on DI contracts sold on other policy forms introduced prior to 2010. The Company also retains all risk on accidental death benefit claims and substantially all risk associated with waiver of premium provisions.

As of both December 31, 2016 and 2015, traditional life and UL insurance in force aggregated $11.4 billion, of which $7.9 billion and $8.0 billion, respectively, were reinsured at the respective year ends.

The effect of reinsurance on premiums for traditional long-duration products was as follows:

	Years Ended December 31,
(in thousands)	2016			2015			2014
Direct premiums	$	33,414		$	34,840		$	36,205
Reinsurance ceded		(11,503	)		(11,749	)		(11,721	)
Net premiums	$	21,911		$	23,091		$	24,484

Policy and contract charges are presented on the Statements of Income net of $6.2 million, $5.7 million and $5.0 million of reinsurance ceded for non-traditional long-duration products for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Reinsurance recovered on all contracts was $16.0 million, $13.6 million and $11.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Reinsurance recoverables include approximately $101.0 million and $95.0 million related to LTC risk ceded to Genworth as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims include $2.3 million and $2.5 million related to previously assumed reinsurance arrangements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

⁽¹⁾ Includes the fair value of GMAB embedded derivatives that was a net asset at both December 31, 2016 and 2015 reported as a contra liability.

Fixed Annuities

Fixed annuities include both deferred and payout contracts. Deferred contracts offer a guaranteed minimum rate of interest and security of the principal invested. Payout contracts guarantee a fixed income payment for life or the term of the contract. Liabilities for fixed annuities in a benefit or payout status are based on future estimated payments using established industry mortality tables and interest rates, ranging from 2.71% to 9.38% at December 31, 2016, depending on year of issue, with an average rate of approximately 4.47%. The Company generally invests the proceeds from the annuity contracts in fixed rate securities.

Variable Annuities

Purchasers of variable annuities can select from a variety of investment options and can elect to allocate a portion to a fixed account. A vast majority of the premiums received for variable annuity contracts are held in separate accounts where the assets are held for the exclusive benefit of those contractholders.

Most of the variable annuity contracts currently issued by the Company contain one or more guaranteed benefits, including GMWB, GMAB and GMDB provisions. The Company previously offered contracts with GMIB provisions. See Note 2 and Note 10 for additional information regarding the Company’s variable annuity guarantees. The Company does not currently hedge its risk under the GMDB and GMIB provisions. See Note 12 and Note 16 for additional information regarding the Company’s derivative instruments used to hedge risks related to GMWB and GMAB provisions.

Insurance Liabilities

VUL/UL is the largest group of insurance policies written by the Company. Purchasers of VUL can select from a variety of investment options and can elect to allocate a portion to a fixed account or a separate account. A vast majority of the premiums received for VUL policies are held in separate accounts where the assets are held for the exclusive benefit of those policyholders.

IUL is a universal life policy that includes an equity indexed account. The rate of credited interest above the minimum guarantee for funds allocated to the indexed account is linked to the performance of the specific index for the indexed account (subject to a cap and floor). The Company offers an S&P 500^® Index account option and a blended multi-index account option comprised of the S&P 500 Index, the MSCI^® EAFE Index and the MSCI EM Index. Both options offer two crediting durations, one-year and two-year. The policyholder may allocate all or a portion of the policy value to a fixed or any available indexed account. The portion of the policy allocated to the indexed account is accounted for as an embedded derivative at fair value. The Company currently hedges the risk related to the equity indexed account with derivative instruments. See Note 16 for additional information regarding the Company’s derivative instruments used to hedge the risk related to IUL.

The Company also offers term life insurance as well as DI products. The Company no longer offers standalone LTC products and whole life insurance but has in force policies from prior years.

Insurance liabilities include accumulation values, unpaid reported claims, incurred but not reported claims and obligations for anticipated future claims.

F-21  

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

The liability for estimates of benefits that will become payable on future claims on term life, whole life, DI and LTC policies is based on the net level premium and includes the anticipated interest rates earned on assets supporting the liability. Anticipated interest rates for term and whole life ranged from 3% to 10% at December 31, 2016. Anticipated interest rates for DI policies ranged from 3% to 7.5% at December 31, 2016. For LTC policies, the anticipated interest rate was 5.6% at December 31, 2016.

The liability for unpaid reported claims on DI and LTC policies includes an estimate of the present value of obligations for continuing benefit payments. The discount rates used to calculate present values are based on average interest rates earned on assets supporting the liability for unpaid amounts and were 4.75% and 6.25% for DI and LTC claims, respectively, at December 31, 2016.

Portions of the Company’s UL and VUL policies have product features that result in profits followed by losses from the insurance component of the policy. These profits followed by losses can be generated by the cost structure of the product or secondary guarantees in the policy. The secondary guarantee ensures that, subject to specified conditions, the policy will not terminate and will continue to provide a death benefit even if there is insufficient policy value to cover the monthly deductions and charges.

Separate Account Liabilities

Separate account liabilities consisted of the following:

	December 31,
(in thousands)	2016		2015
Variable annuity	$	4,004,582	$	3,979,524
VUL insurance		392,181		387,205
Other insurance		680		793
Total	$	4,397,443	$	4,367,522

10.  VARIABLE ANNUITY AND INSURANCE GUARANTEES

The majority of the variable annuity contracts offered by the Company contain GMDB provisions. The Company also offers variable annuities with GMWB and GMAB provisions. The Company previously offered contracts containing GMIB provisions. See Note 2 and Note 9 for additional information regarding the Company’s variable annuity guarantees.

The GMDB provisions provide a specified minimum return upon death of the contractholder. The death benefit payable is the greater of (i) the contract value less any purchase payment credits subject to recapture less a pro-rata portion of any rider fees, or (ii) the GMDB provisions specified in the contract. The Company has the following primary GMDB provisions:

• Return of premium — provides purchase payments minus adjusted partial surrenders.

• Reset — provides that the value resets to the account value every sixth contract anniversary minus adjusted partial surrenders. This provision was often provided in combination with the return of premium provision and is no longer offered.

• Ratchet — provides that the value ratchets up to the maximum account value at specified anniversary intervals, plus subsequent purchase payments less adjusted partial surrenders.

The variable annuity contracts with GMWB riders typically have account values that are based on an underlying portfolio of mutual funds, the values of which fluctuate based on fund performance. At issue, the guaranteed amount is equal to the amount deposited but the guarantee may be increased annually to the account value (a “step-up”) in the case of favorable market performance or by a benefit credit if the contract includes this provision.

The Company has GMWB riders in force, which contain one or more of the following provisions:

• Withdrawals at a specified rate per year until the amount withdrawn is equal to the guaranteed amount.

• Withdrawals at a specified rate per year for the life of the contractholder (“GMWB for life”).

• Withdrawals at a specified rate per year for joint contractholders while either is alive.

• Withdrawals based on performance of the contract.

• Withdrawals based on the age withdrawals begin.

• Credits are applied annually for a specified number of years to increase the guaranteed amount as long as withdrawals have not been taken.

Variable annuity contractholders age 79 or younger at contract issue can also obtain a principal-back guarantee by purchasing the optional GMAB rider for an additional charge. The GMAB rider guarantees that, regardless of market performance at the end of the 10-year waiting period, the contract value will be no less than the original investment or a specified percentage of the highest anniversary value, adjusted for withdrawals. If the contract value is less than the guarantee at the end of the 10-year period, a lump sum will be added to the contract value to make the contract value equal to the guarantee value.

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

Variable annuity and insurance products offer separate account investment options. In addition, many of these products offer a fixed account option that is part of the Company’s “general account”. Under the separate account options, contractholders and policyholders bear the investment risk. The Company’s Portfolio Navigator (traditional asset allocation) funds are separate account investment options available under the Company’s variable universal life insurance products and its variable annuities, but as of April 2012, are no longer available for sale with any living benefit rider. Portfolio Navigator funds allow clients to allocate their contract value to one of five funds of funds, each of which invests in various underlying funds. Portfolio Navigator funds are designed to allow a contract purchaser to select investment options based on the purchaser’s investment time horizon, risk tolerance and investment goals and tailor the performance of annuities and life insurance policies to their specific needs and keep investment allocations on track over time.

As of April 2012, clients who purchase a GMWB or GMAB rider are invested in one or more of the Portfolio Stabilizer (managed volatility) funds of funds within the separate accounts that are designed to pursue total return while seeking to mitigate exposure to market volatility and allow a contract purchaser to select investment options based on the purchaser’s investment risk tolerance.

Certain UL policies offered by the Company provide secondary guarantee benefits. The secondary guarantee ensures that, subject to specified conditions, the policy will not terminate and will continue to provide a death benefit even if there is insufficient policy value to cover the monthly deductions and charges.

The following table provides information related to variable annuity guarantees for which the Company has established additional liabilities:

⁽¹⁾  Individual variable annuity contracts may have more than one guarantee and therefore may be included in more than one benefit type. Variable annuity contracts for which the death benefit equals the account value are not shown in this table.

The net amount at risk for GMDB and GMAB guarantees is defined as the current guaranteed benefit amount in excess of the current contract value. The net amount at risk for GMIB and GMWB guarantees is defined as the greater of the present value of the minimum guaranteed withdrawal payments less the current contract value or zero. The present value is calculated using a discount rate that is consistent with assumptions embedded in the Company’s annuity pricing models.

The following table provides information related to insurance guarantees for which the Company has established additional liabilities:

UL secondary guarantees	$	427		64	$	418		63

The net amount at risk for UL secondary guarantees is defined as the current guaranteed death benefit amount in excess of the current policyholder account balance.

No gains or losses were recognized on assets transferred to separate accounts for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014.

11.  LINE OF CREDIT

The Company, as the borrower, has a revolving credit agreement with Ameriprise Financial as the lender. The aggregate amount outstanding under the line of credit may not exceed the lesser of $25 million or 3% of the Company’s statutory admitted assets (excluding separate accounts) as of the prior year end. The interest rate for any borrowing is established by reference to LIBOR for U.S. dollar deposits with maturities comparable to the relevant interest period. Amounts borrowed may be repaid at any time with no prepayment penalty. There were no amounts outstanding on this line of credit as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

12.  FAIR VALUES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; that is, an exit price. The exit price assumes the asset or liability is not exchanged subject to a forced liquidation or distressed sale.

Valuation Hierarchy

The Company categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used by the Company’s valuation techniques. A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2 Prices or valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 3 Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The increase to pretax income of the Company’s adjustment for nonperformance risk on the fair value of its embedded derivatives was $4.5 million, $3.9 million and $7.0 million, net of DAC, DSIC, unearned revenue amortization and the reinsurance accrual, for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Securities transferred from Level 3 primarily represent securities with fair values that are now obtained from a third-party pricing service with observable inputs. Securities transferred to Level 3 represent securities with fair values that are now based on a single non-binding broker quote. The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of the quarter in which each transfer occurred. For assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting periods that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2.

The following tables provide a summary of the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements developed by the Company or reasonably available to the Company of Level 3 assets and liabilities:

				Market volatility(3)		5.4	%	–	21.5	%
				Nonperformance risk(1)		68			bps

⁽¹⁾ The nonperformance risk is the spread added to the observable interest rates used in the valuation of the embedded derivatives.

⁽²⁾  The utilization of guaranteed withdrawals represents the percentage of contractholders that will begin withdrawing in any given year.

⁽³⁾  Market volatility is implied volatility of fund of funds and managed volatility funds.

Level 3 measurements not included in the table above are obtained from non-binding broker quotes where unobservable inputs utilized in the fair value calculation are not reasonably available to the Company.

Sensitivity of Fair Value Measurements to Changes in Unobservable Inputs

Significant increases (decreases) in the yield/spread to U.S. Treasuries used in the fair value measurement of Level 3 corporate debt securities in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.

Significant increases (decreases) in nonperformance risk used in the fair value measurement of the IUL embedded derivatives in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.

Significant increases (decreases) in utilization and volatility used in the fair value measurement of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) liability value. Significant increases (decreases) in nonperformance risk and surrender rate used in the fair value measurement of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) liability value. Utilization of guaranteed withdrawals and surrender rates vary with the type of rider, the duration of the policy, the age of the contractholder, the distribution channel and whether the value of the guaranteed benefit exceeds the contract accumulation value.

Determination of Fair Value

The Company uses valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The Company’s market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The Company’s income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future projected cash flows to a single discounted present value amount. When applying either approach, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs.

The following is a description of the valuation techniques used to measure fair value and the general classification of these instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy.

Assets

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Cash equivalents are classified as Level 2 and measured at amortized cost, which is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short time between the purchase of the instrument and its expected realization.

Available-for-Sale Securities

When available, the fair value of securities is based on quoted prices in active markets. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are obtained from third-party pricing services, non-binding broker quotes, or other model-based valuation techniques.

  F-28

Level 1 securities primarily include U.S. Treasuries. Level 2 securities primarily include corporate bonds, residential mortgage backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities, state and municipal obligations, asset backed securities and U.S. agency and foreign government securities. The fair value of these Level 2 securities is based on a market approach with prices obtained from third-party pricing services. Observable inputs used to value these securities can include, but are not limited to, reported trades, benchmark yields, issuer spreads and non-binding broker quotes. Level 3 securities primarily include certain corporate bonds, non-agency residential mortgage backed securities and asset backed securities. The fair value of corporate bonds, non-agency residential mortgage backed securities and certain asset backed securities classified as Level 3 is typically based on a single non-binding broker quote. The underlying inputs used for some of the non-binding broker quotes are not readily available to the Company. The Company’s privately placed corporate bonds are typically based on a single non-binding broker quote. In addition to the general pricing controls, the Company reviews the broker prices to ensure that the broker quotes are reasonable and, when available, compares prices of privately issued securities to public issues from the same issuer to ensure that the implicit illiquidity premium applied to the privately placed investment is reasonable considering investment characteristics, maturity, and average life of the investment.

In consideration of the above, management is responsible for the fair values recorded on the financial statements. Prices received from third-party pricing services are subjected to exception reporting that identifies investments with significant daily price movements as well as no movements. The Company reviews the exception reporting and resolves the exceptions through reaffirmation of the price or recording an appropriate fair value estimate. The Company also performs subsequent transaction testing. The Company performs annual due diligence of third-party pricing services. The Company’s due diligence procedures include assessing the vendor’s valuation qualifications, control environment, analysis of asset-class specific valuation methodologies, and understanding of sources of market observable assumptions and unobservable assumptions, if any, employed in the valuation methodology. The Company also considers the results of its exception reporting controls and any resulting price challenges that arise.

Separate Account Assets

The fair value of assets held by separate accounts is determined by the NAV of the funds in which those separate accounts are invested. The NAV is used as a practical expedient for fair value and represents the exit price for the separate account. Separate account assets are excluded from classification in the fair value hierarchy.

Other Assets

Derivatives that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, such as derivatives that are exchange-traded, are classified as Level 1 measurements. The variation margin on futures contracts is also classified as Level 1. The fair value of derivatives that are traded in less active over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets is generally measured using pricing models with market observable inputs such as interest rates and equity index levels. These measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and include swaps and the majority of options. The fair value of certain derivatives measured using pricing models which include significant unobservable inputs are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The counterparties’ nonperformance risk associated with uncollateralized derivative assets was immaterial at December 31, 2016 and 2015. See Note 15 and Note 16 for further information on the credit risk of derivative instruments and related collateral.

Liabilities

Policyholder Account Balances, Future Policy Benefits and Claims

The Company values the embedded derivatives attributable to the provisions of certain variable annuity riders using internal valuation models. These models calculate fair value by discounting expected cash flows from benefits plus margins for profit, risk and expenses less embedded derivative fees. The projected cash flows used by these models include observable capital market assumptions and incorporate significant unobservable inputs related to contractholder behavior assumptions, implied volatility, and margins for risk, profit and expenses that the Company believes an exit market participant would expect. The fair value also reflects a current estimate of the Company’s nonperformance risk specific to these embedded derivatives. Given the significant unobservable inputs to this valuation, these measurements are classified as Level 3. The embedded derivatives attributable to these provisions are recorded in policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims.

The Company uses various Black-Scholes calculations to determine the fair value of the embedded derivatives associated with the provisions of its IUL products. The fair value of the IUL embedded derivatives includes significant observable interest rates, volatilities and equity index levels and the significant unobservable estimate of the Company’s nonperformance risk. Given the significance of the nonperformance risk assumption to the fair value, the IUL embedded derivatives are classified as Level 3. The embedded derivatives attributable to these provisions are recorded in policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims.

The Company’s Corporate Actuarial Department calculates the fair value of the embedded derivatives on a monthly basis. During this process, control checks are performed to validate the completeness of the data. Actuarial management approves various components of the valuation along with the final results. The change in the fair value of the embedded derivatives is reviewed

monthly with senior management. The Level 3 inputs into the valuation are consistent with the pricing assumptions and updated as experience develops. Significant unobservable inputs that reflect policyholder behavior are reviewed quarterly along with other valuation assumptions.

Other Liabilities

Derivatives that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, such as derivatives that are exchange-traded, are classified as Level 1 measurements. The variation margin on futures contracts is also classified as Level 1. The fair value of derivatives that are traded in less active OTC markets is generally measured using pricing models with market observable inputs such as interest rates and equity index levels. These measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and include swaps and the majority of options. The Company’s nonperformance risk associated with uncollateralized derivative liabilities was immaterial at December 31, 2016 and 2015. See Note 15 and Note 16 for further information on the credit risk of derivative instruments and related collateral.

During the reporting periods, there were no material assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

The following tables provide the carrying value and the estimated fair value of financial instruments that are not reported at fair value.

⁽¹⁾ Amounts are comprised of certain investments that are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient and have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. See Note 3 for further information.

Commercial Mortgage Loans, Net

The fair value of commercial mortgage loans, except those with significant credit deterioration, is determined by discounting contractual cash flows using discount rates that reflect current pricing for loans with similar remaining maturities, liquidity and characteristics including LTV ratio, occupancy rate, refinance risk, debt-service coverage, location, and property condition. For commercial mortgage loans with significant credit deterioration, fair value is determined using the same adjustments as above with an additional adjustment for the Company’s estimate of the amount recoverable on the loan. Given the significant unobservable inputs to this valuation, these measurements are classified as Level 3.

Policy Loans

Policy loans represent loans made against the cash surrender value of the underlying life insurance or annuity product. These loans and the related interest are usually realized at death of the policyholder or contractholder or at surrender of the contract and are not transferable without the underlying insurance or annuity contract. The fair value of policy loans is determined by estimating expected cash flows discounted at rates based on the U.S. Treasury curve. Policy loans are classified as Level 3 as the discount rate used may be adjusted for the underlying performance of individual policies.

Policyholder Account Balances, Future Policy Benefits and Claims

The fair value of fixed annuities in deferral status is determined by discounting cash flows using a risk neutral discount rate with adjustments for profit margin, expense margin, early policy surrender behavior, a margin for adverse deviation from estimated early policy surrender behavior and the Company’s nonperformance risk specific to these liabilities. The fair value of non-life contingent fixed annuities in payout status and the fixed portion of a small number of variable annuity contracts classified as investment contracts is determined in a similar manner. Given the use of significant unobservable inputs to these valuations, the measurements are classified as Level 3.

Separate Account Liabilities

Certain separate account liabilities are classified as investment contracts and are carried at an amount equal to the related separate account assets. The NAV of the related separate account assets is used as a practical expedient for fair value and represents the exit price for the separate account liabilities. Separate account liabilities are excluded from classification in the fair value hierarchy.

13.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

14.  STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND REQUIREMENTS

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) defines Risk-Based Capital (“RBC”) requirements for insurance companies. The RBC requirements are used by the NAIC and state insurance regulators to identify companies that merit regulatory actions designed to protect policyholders. These requirements apply to the Company. The Company has met its minimum RBC requirements.

State insurance statutes generally require insurance companies to provide notice to state regulators prior to payment of dividends and those dividends exceeding prescribed limitations are subject to potential disapproval. For the Company, dividends in a calendar year which exceed the greater of (i) 10% of statutory surplus as of the immediately preceding year-end, or (ii) statutory net gain from operations for the immediately preceding calendar year, not to exceed 30% of statutory surplus as of the immediately preceding year-end would require pre-notification to the New York Department and are subject to potential disapproval. Statutory net gain from operations was $64.2 million, $60.6 million and $52.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Insurance companies are required to prepare statutory financial statements in accordance with the accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the insurance departments of their respective states of domicile, which vary materially from GAAP. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include publications of the NAIC, as well as state laws, regulations and general administrative rules. The more significant differences from GAAP include charging policy acquisition costs to expense as incurred, establishing annuity and insurance reserves using different actuarial methods and assumptions, valuing investments on a different basis and excluding certain assets from the balance sheet by charging them directly to surplus, such as a portion of the net deferred income tax assets.

15.  OFFSETTING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Certain financial instruments and derivative instruments are eligible for offset in the Balance Sheets. The Company’s derivative instruments are subject to master netting arrangements and collateral arrangements and qualify for offset. A master netting arrangement with a counterparty creates a right of offset for amounts due to and from that same counterparty that is enforceable in the event of a default or bankruptcy. The Company’s policy is to recognize amounts subject to master netting arrangements on a gross basis in the Balance Sheets.

The following tables present the gross and net information about the Company’s assets subject to master netting arrangements:

	December 31, 2016
	Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets		Gross Amounts Offset in the Balance Sheets		Amounts of Assets Presented in the Balance Sheets		Gross Amounts Not Offset in the Balance Sheets									Net Amount

⁽¹⁾  Represents the amount of liabilities that could be offset by assets with the same counterparty under master netting or similar arrangements that management elects not to offset on the Balance Sheets.

In the tables above, the amounts of assets or liabilities presented in the Balance Sheets are offset first by financial instruments that have the right of offset under master netting or similar arrangements, then any remaining amount is reduced by the amount of cash and securities collateral. The actual collateral may be greater than amounts presented in the tables.

When the fair value of collateral accepted by the Company is less than the amount due to the Company, there is a risk of loss if the counterparty fails to perform or provide additional collateral. To mitigate this risk, the Company monitors collateral values regularly and requires additional collateral when necessary. When the value of collateral pledged by the Company declines, it may be required to post additional collateral.

The Company’s freestanding derivative instruments are reflected in other assets and other liabilities. Cash collateral accepted by the Company is reflected in other liabilities. See Note 16 for additional disclosures related to the Company’s derivative instruments.

16.  DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Derivative instruments enable the Company to manage its exposure to various market risks. The value of such instruments is derived from an underlying variable or multiple variables, including equity and interest rate indices or prices. The Company primarily enters into derivative agreements for risk management purposes related to the Company’s products and operations.

The Company’s freestanding derivative instruments are all subject to master netting arrangements. The Company’s policy on the recognition of derivatives on the Balance Sheets is to not offset fair value amounts recognized for derivatives and collateral arrangements executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting arrangement. See Note 15 for additional information regarding the estimated fair value of the Company’s freestanding derivatives after considering the effect of master netting arrangements and collateral.

⁽²⁾ The fair value of freestanding derivative liabilities is included in Other liabilities on the Balance Sheets. The fair value of GMWB and GMAB and IUL embedded derivatives is included in Policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims on the Balance Sheets.

⁽³⁾ The fair value of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives at December 31, 2016 included $42.9 million of individual contracts in a liability position and $17.0 million of individual contracts in an asset position. The fair value of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives at December 31, 2015 included $50.4 million of individual contracts in a liability position and $10.1 million of individual contracts in an asset position.

See Note 12 for additional information regarding the Company’s fair value measurement of derivative instruments.

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, investment securities with a fair value of $9.8 million and $16.8 million, respectively, were received as collateral to meet contractual obligations under derivative contracts, of which $0.6 million and $8.6 million, respectively, may be sold, pledged or rehypothecated by the Company. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had not sold, pledged, or rehypothecated any securities that were accepted as collateral. In addition, at December 31, 2016 and 2015, non-cash collateral accepted was held in separate custodial accounts and was not included in the Company’s Balance Sheets.

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

The Company holds derivative instruments that either do not qualify or are not designated for hedge accounting treatment. These derivative instruments are used as economic hedges of equity, interest rate, credit and foreign currency exchange rate risk related to various products and transactions of the Company.

Certain annuity contracts contain GMWB or GMAB provisions, which guarantee the right to make limited partial withdrawals each contract year regardless of the volatility inherent in the underlying investments or guarantee a minimum accumulation value of consideration received at the beginning of the contract period, after a specified holding period, respectively. The GMAB and non-life contingent GMWB provisions are considered embedded derivatives, which are bifurcated from their host contracts for valuation purposes and reported on the Balance Sheets at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. The Company economically hedges the exposure related to GMAB and non-life contingent GMWB provisions primarily using futures, options, interest rate swaptions and interest rate swaps.

The deferred premium associated with certain of the above options is paid or received semi-annually over the life of the option contract or at maturity. The following is a summary of the payments the Company is scheduled to make and receive for these options as of December 31, 2016:

(in thousands)	Premiums Payable		Premiums Receivable
2017	$	9,902	$	—
2018		8,624		5,390
2019		17,349		—
2020		7,549		—
2021		16,879		—
2022-2025		2,395		—
Total	$	62,698	$	5,390

Actual timing and payment amounts may differ due to future contract settlements, modifications or exercises of options prior to the full premium being paid or received.

IUL products have returns tied to the performance of equity markets. As a result of fluctuations in equity markets, the obligation incurred by the Company related to IUL products will positively or negatively impact earnings over the life of these products. The equity component of the IUL product obligations are considered embedded derivatives, which are bifurcated from their host contracts for valuation purposes and reported on the Balance Sheets at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. As a means of economically hedging its obligations under the provisions of this product, the Company enters into index options.

Credit Risk

Credit risk associated with the Company’s derivatives is the risk that a derivative counterparty will not perform in accordance with the terms of the applicable derivative contract. To mitigate such risk, the Company has established guidelines and oversight of credit risk through a comprehensive enterprise risk management program that includes members of senior management. Key components of this program are to require preapproval of counterparties and the use of master netting arrangements and collateral arrangements whenever practical. See Note 15 for additional information on the Company’s credit exposure related to derivative assets.

Certain of the Company’s derivative contracts contain provisions that adjust the level of collateral the Company is required to post based on the Company’s financial strength rating (or based on the debt rating of RiverSource Life’s parent, Ameriprise Financial). Additionally, certain of the Company’s derivative contracts contain provisions that allow the counterparty to terminate the contract if the Company does not maintain a specific financial strength rating or Ameriprise Financial’s debt does not maintain a specific credit rating (generally an investment grade rating). If these termination provisions were to be triggered, the Company’s counterparty could require immediate settlement of any net liability position. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts in a net liability position containing such credit contingent provisions was $11.3 million and $17.7 million, respectively. The aggregate fair value of assets posted as collateral for such instruments as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $11.3 million and $17.7 million, respectively. If the credit contingent provisions of derivative contracts in a net liability position at both December 31, 2016 and 2015 were triggered, the aggregate fair value of additional assets that would be required to be posted as collateral or needed to settle the instruments immediately would have been nil.

17.  SHAREHOLDER’S EQUITY

Other comprehensive income (loss) related to net unrealized securities gains (losses) includes three components: (i) unrealized gains (losses) that arose from changes in the market value of securities that were held during the period; (ii) (gains) losses that were previously unrealized, but have been recognized in current period net income due to sales of Available-for-Sale securities and due to the reclassification of noncredit other-than-temporary impairment losses to credit losses; and (iii) other adjustments primarily consisting of changes in insurance and annuity asset and liability balances, such as DAC, DSIC, unearned revenue, benefit reserves and reinsurance recoverables, to reflect the expected impact on their carrying values had the unrealized gains (losses) been realized as of the respective balance sheet dates.

F-35  

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

The following table presents the amounts related to each component of unrealized securities gains (losses) in other comprehensive income (loss) and AOCI:

(in thousands)	Pretax			Income Tax Benefit (Expense)			Net of Tax
Balance of AOCI at January 1, 2014							$	43,379
Net unrealized securities gains (losses):
Net unrealized securities gains arising during the period(1)	$	32,568		$	(11,398	)		21,170

Total other comprehensive income	$	8,004		$	(2,802	)		5,202
Balance of AOCI at December 31, 2016							$	34,079	(3)

⁽¹⁾  Includes other-than-temporary impairment losses on Available-for-Sale securities related to factors other than credit that were recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) during the period.

⁽²⁾  Reclassification amounts are recorded in net realized investment gains (losses).

⁽³⁾  Includes $238 thousand, $293 thousand and $94 thousand, respectively, of noncredit related impairments on securities and net unrealized securities losses on previously impaired securities at December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

18.  INCOME TAXES

The components of income tax provision were as follows:

	Years Ended December 31,
(in thousands)	2016			2015			2014
Current income tax
Federal	$	15,083		$	17,686		$	2,086
State		180			135			9
Total current income tax		15,263			17,821			2,095
Deferred federal income tax		(4,851	)		(3,557	)		13,346
Total income tax provision	$	10,412		$	14,264		$	15,441

In December 2014, the Company received Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) approval for a change in accounting method related to variable annuity hedging. Accordingly, the Company began using the approved method of accounting in the fourth quarter of 2014. The change to the approved method increased deferred tax expense and current tax receivables with a corresponding decrease to current tax expense and deferred tax assets of approximately $15.0 million in 2014.

The principal reasons that the aggregate income tax provision is different from that computed by using the U.S. statutory rate of 35% are as follows:

	Years Ended December 31,
	2016			2015			2014
Tax at U.S. statutory rate		35.0	%		35.0	%		35.0	%
Changes in taxes resulting from:
Dividends received deduction		(14.4	)		(11.6	)		(10.6	)
Foreign tax credit		(3.0	)		—			—
Other		1.4			(1.1	)		(1.6	)
Income tax provision		19.0	%		22.3	%		22.8	%

  F-36

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

The effective tax rates are lower than the statutory rate as a result of tax preferred items including the dividends received deduction. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to 2015 was primarily due to lower pretax income in relation to preferred items including the dividends received deduction.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities result from temporary differences between the assets and liabilities measured for GAAP reporting versus income tax return purposes. The significant components of the Company’s deferred income tax assets and liabilities, which are included net within other assets or other liabilities on the Balance Sheets, were as follows:

	December 31,
(in thousands)	2016		2015
Deferred income tax assets
Liabilities for policyholder account balances, future policy benefits and claims	$	61,291	$	66,410
Investment related		10,666		—
Other		50		89
Gross deferred income tax assets		72,007		66,499
Deferred income tax liabilities
Deferred acquisition costs		42,935		41,699
Net unrealized gains on Available-for Sale securities		18,350		15,549
Investment related		—		6
DSIC		5,446		5,911
Other		108		130
Gross deferred income tax liabilities		66,839		63,295
Net deferred income tax assets	$	5,168	$	3,204

Based on analysis of the Company’s tax position, management believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations and implementation of tax planning strategies will generate sufficient taxable income to enable the Company to utilize all of its deferred tax assets. Accordingly, no valuation allowance has been established as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits was as follows:

(in thousands)	2016			2015			2014
Balance at January 1	$	4,325		$	7,249		$	7,562
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year		197			410			524
Additions for tax positions of prior years		1,973			2,026			59
Reductions for tax positions of prior years		(3,447	)		(5,360	)		(896	)
Balance at December 31	$	3,048		$	4,325		$	7,249

If recognized, approximately $116 thousand, $117 thousand and $67 thousand, net of federal tax benefits, of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively, would affect the effective tax rate.

It is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next 12 months. It is estimated that the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by approximately $2.0 million to $3.0 million in the next 12 months primarily due to resolution of IRS examinations.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the income tax provision. The Company recognized a net decrease of $2.2 million, and a net increase of $216 thousand and $119 thousand in interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had a payable of $431 thousand and $2.6 million, respectively, related to accrued interest and penalties.

The Company files income tax returns as part of its inclusion in the consolidated federal income tax returns of Ameriprise Financial in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. In 2016, Ameriprise Financial received a settlement as final resolution to the 1997 through 2005 IRS audit. The IRS has completed its examination of the 2006 through 2011 tax returns and these years are effectively settled; however, the statutes of limitation, except for 2007, remain open for certain carryover adjustments. The IRS is currently auditing Ameriprise Financial’s U.S. income tax returns for 2012 and 2013. The Company’s state income tax returns remain open for all years after 2012.

19.  COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company’s funding commitments for commercial mortgage loan commitments was $6.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Guarantees

The Company’s annuity and life products all have minimum interest rate guarantees in their fixed accounts. As of December 31, 2016, these guarantees range from 1% to 5%.

F-37  

RiverSource Life Insurance Co. of New York

Contingencies

The Company is required by law to be a member of the guaranty fund association in the State of New York. In the event of insolvency of one or more unaffiliated insurance companies, the Company could be adversely affected by the requirement to pay assessments to the guaranty fund association.

The Company projects its cost of future guaranty fund assessments based on estimates of insurance company insolvencies provided by the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations (“NOLHGA”) and the amount of its premiums written relative to the industry-wide premium in the State of New York. The Company accrues the estimated cost of future guaranty fund assessments when it is considered probable that an assessment will be imposed, the event obligating the Company to pay the assessment has occurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.

The Company has a liability for estimated guaranty fund assessments and a related premium tax asset associated with Executive Life Insurance Company of New York. At both December 31, 2016 and 2015, the estimated liability was $1.1 million and the related premium tax asset was $893 thousand. The expected period over which guaranty fund assessments will be made and the related tax credits recovered is not known.

Insurance companies have been the subject of increasing regulatory, legislative and judicial scrutiny. Numerous state and federal regulatory agencies have commenced examinations and other inquiries of insurance companies regarding sales and marketing practices (including sales to older consumers and disclosure practices), claims handling, and unclaimed property and escheatment practices and procedures. The Company has cooperated and will continue to cooperate with the applicable regulators.

The Company is involved in the normal course of business in a number of other legal and arbitration proceedings concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its business activities. The Company believes that it is not a party to, nor are any of its properties the subject of, any pending legal, arbitration or regulatory investigation, examination or proceeding that is likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is possible that the outcome of any current or future legal, arbitration or regulatory proceeding could have a material impact on results of operations in any particular reporting period as the proceedings are resolved.

Uncertain economic conditions, heightened and sustained volatility in the financial markets and significant financial reform legislation may increase the likelihood that clients and other persons or regulators may present or threaten legal claims or that regulators increase the scope or frequency of examinations of the Company or the insurance industry generally.
