(1)    Includes Level 3 mortgage loans that are recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Excludes $23 million and $19 million of equity method investments measured at fair value under the FVO using the NAV as a practical expedient as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
