(1)Asset-backed securities ("ABS") include debt tranched securities collateralized primarily by collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs").

At March 31, 2025, fixed maturities, held to maturity of $390 million (2024: $443 million) were presented net of an allowance for expected credit losses of $nil (2024: $nil).

The Company's ABS, held to maturity consist of CLO debt tranched securities ("CLO Debt"). The Company uses a scenario-based approach to review its CLO debt portfolio and reviews subordination levels of these securities to determine their ability to absorb credit losses of the underlying collateral. If losses are forecast to be below the subordination level for a tranche held by the Company, the security is determined not to have a credit loss. At March 31, 2025, the allowance for credit losses expected to be recognized over the life of the Company's ABS, held to maturity was $nil.

To estimate expected credit losses for corporate debt securities, held to maturity, the Company's projected cash flows are primarily driven by assumptions regarding the severity of loss, which is a function of the probability of default and projected recovery rates. The Company's default and recovery rates are based on credit ratings, credit analysis and macroeconomic forecasts. At March 31, 2025, the allowance for credit losses expected to be recognized over the life of the Company's corporate debt, held to maturity was $nil.
Contractual Maturities
Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. ABS classified as held to maturity had a net carrying value of $261 million (2024: $321 million).
Corporate debt classified as held to maturity with a net carrying value of $28 million (2024: $28 million) is due between 1 year and 3 years. Corporate debt classified as held to maturity with a net carrying value of $98 million (2024: $95 million) is due between 3 years and 10 years. Corporate debt classified as held to maturity with a net carrying value of $3 million (2024: $nil) is due after 10 years.

The primary credit quality indicators for commercial mortgage loans are the debt service coverage ratio which compares a property’s net operating income to amounts needed to service the principal and interest due under the loan, (generally, the lower the debt service coverage ratio, the higher the risk of experiencing a credit loss) and the loan-to-value ratio which compares the unpaid principal balance of the loan to the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral (generally, the higher the loan-to-value ratio, the higher the risk of experiencing a credit loss). The debt service coverage ratio and loan-to-value ratio, as well as the values utilized in calculating these ratios, are updated quarterly.

The Company has a high quality commercial mortgage loan portfolio with a weighted average debt service coverage ratio of 1.7x (2024: 1.7x) and a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 78% (2024: 78%).

At March 31, 2025, there was one commercial mortgage loan with past due amounts where the Company is assessing exit strategies. At March 31, 2024, there were no past due amounts associated with the commercial mortgage loans held by the Company.
On a quarterly basis, the Company's exposure to commercial mortgage loans in the office sector, that represents 47% (2024: 43%) of the total mortgage loan portfolio, is evaluated for credit losses based on inputs unique to this sector. This assessment utilizes historical credit loss experience adjusted to reflect current conditions and management forecasts. Further, collateral dependent commercial mortgage loans (e.g., when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, including when foreclosure is reasonably possible or probable) are evaluated individually for credit losses. The allowance for expected credit losses for a collateral dependent loan is established as the excess of amortized cost over the estimated fair value of the loan's underlying collateral, less selling cost when foreclosure is probable.

Accordingly, any change in estimated credit losses are recognized as a change in the allowance for expected credit losses and is recorded in net investment gains (losses).

At March 31, 2025, the Company's mortgage loan portfolio had an allowance for expected credit losses of $26 million (2024: $23 million).

(3) Applies to one fund with a fair value of $22 million (2024: $21 million).
Two common redemption restrictions which may impact the Company's ability to redeem multi-strategy funds are gates and lockups. A gate is a suspension of redemptions which may be implemented by the general partner or investment manager of the fund in order to defer, in whole or in part, the redemption request in the event the aggregate amount of redemption requests exceeds a predetermined percentage of the fund's net assets which may otherwise hinder the general partner or investment manager's ability to liquidate holdings in an orderly fashion in order to generate the cash necessary to fund extraordinarily large redemption payouts. A lockup period is the initial amount of time an investor is contractually required to hold the security before having the ability to redeem.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, neither of these restrictions impacted the Company's redemption requests. At March 31, 2025, there were no multi-strategy fund holdings (2024: nil) where the Company is still within the lockup period. 

At March 31, 2025, the Company had $28 million (2024: $28 million) of unfunded commitments as a limited partner in multi-strategy funds. Once the full amount of committed capital has been called by the General Partner of each of these funds, the assets will not be fully returned until after the completion of the funds' investment term. These funds have investment terms ranging from two years to the dissolution of the underlying fund.

At March 31, 2025, the Company had $175 million (2024: $170 million) of unfunded commitments as a limited partner in direct lending funds. Once the full amount of committed capital has been called by the General Partner of each of these funds, the assets will not be fully returned until the completion of the fund's investment term. These funds have investment terms ranging from three to ten years and the General Partners of certain funds have the option to extend the term by up to three years.

At March 31, 2025, the Company had $198 million (2024: $215 million) of unfunded commitments as a limited partner in private equity funds. The life of the funds is subject to the dissolution of the underlying funds. The Company expects the overall holding period to be over six years.
At March 31, 2025, the Company had $90 million (2024: $91 million) of unfunded commitments as a limited partner in real estate funds. These funds include an open-ended fund and funds with investment terms ranging from two years to the dissolution of the underlying fund.
At March 31, 2025, the Company had $16 million (2024: $21 million) of unfunded commitments as a limited partner in three private company investment funds focusing on financial services technology companies with an emphasis on insurance technology companies ("private company investment funds"). Two of these funds have investment terms of five years and one fund has an investment term of ten years.

f)     Equity Method Investments

During 2023, the Company paid $22 million to acquire 18% of the common equity of Monarch Point Re (ISAC) Ltd. and Monarch Point Re (ISA 2023) Ltd., a collateralized reinsurance company formed under the laws of Bermuda as an incorporated segregated accounts company under the Incorporated Segregated Accounts Companies Act 2019, as amended (the "ISAC Act"). During 2024, the Company paid $14 million to acquire 18% of the common equity of Monarch Point Re (ISA 2024) Ltd. During 2025, the Company paid $5 million to acquire 18% of the common equity of Monarch Point Re (ISA 2025) Ltd., (Monarch Point Re (ISAC) Ltd., Monarch Point Re (ISA 2023) Ltd., Monarch Point Re (ISA 2024) Ltd. and Monarch Point Re (ISA 2025) Ltd., individually or collectively "Monarch Point Re").

The Company retrocedes a diversified portfolio of casualty reinsurance business to Monarch Point Re and Stone Point Credit Adviser LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Stone Point Capital, LLC ("Stone Point" refer to Note 14 'Related Party Transactions') serves as its investment manager. As an investor, the Company expects to benefit from underwriting fees generated by Monarch Point Re and the income and capital appreciation Stone Point seeks to deliver through its investment management services.

Monarch Point Re is not a Variable Interest Entity ("VIE") that is required to be included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for its ownership interest in Monarch Point Re under the equity method of accounting.
During 2016, the Company paid $108 million including direct transaction costs to acquire 19% of the common equity of Harrington Reinsurance Holdings Limited ("Harrington"), the parent company of Harrington Re Ltd. ("Harrington Re"), an independent reinsurance company jointly sponsored by the Company and The Blackstone Group L.P. ("Blackstone"). Following share tender offers in 2024 and 2023, the Company's ownership interest in Harrington increased to 22% and 20%, respectively.

Through long-term service agreements, the Company serves as Harrington Re's reinsurance underwriting manager and Blackstone serves as exclusive investment management service provider. As an investor, the Company expects to benefit from underwriting profit generated by Harrington Re and the income and capital appreciation Blackstone seeks to deliver through its investment management services. In addition, the Company has entered into an arrangement with Blackstone under which underwriting and investment related fees will be shared equally.

The Company accounts for its ownership interest in Harrington under the equity method of accounting. The Company's proportionate share of the underlying equity in net assets resulted in a basis difference of $5 million which represents initial transactions costs.

g)     Variable Interest Entities

In the normal course of investing activities, the Company actively manages allocations to non-controlling tranches of structured securities which are variable interests issued by VIEs. These structured securities include RMBS, CMBS and ABS.

The Company also invests in limited partnerships which represent 74% of the Company's other investments. The investments in limited partnerships include multi-strategy funds, direct lending funds, private equity funds and real estate funds that are variable interests issued by VIEs (refer to Note 3(e) 'Other Investments').

The Company does not have the power to direct the activities that are most significant to the economic performance of these VIEs. Therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. The maximum exposure to loss on these interests is limited to the amount of commitment made by the Company. The Company has not provided financial or other support to these structured securities other than the original investment.
