As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the gross unrealized losses on fixed maturity, available-for-sale securities without an allowance were $1,354 million and $1,634 million, respectively, related to “1” highest quality or “2” high quality securities based on the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) or equivalent rating and $85 million and $106 million, respectively, related to other than high or highest quality securities based on NAIC or equivalent rating. As of September 30, 2024, the $1,407 million of gross unrealized losses of twelve months or more were concentrated in the Company’s corporate securities within the finance, consumer non-cyclical and utility sectors. As of December 31, 2023, the $1,700 million of gross unrealized losses of twelve months or more were concentrated in the Company's corporate securities within the finance, consumer non-cyclical and utility sectors.

In accordance with its policy described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company concluded that an adjustment to earnings for credit losses related to these fixed maturity securities was not warranted at September 30, 2024. This conclusion was based on a detailed analysis of the underlying credit and cash flows for each security. Gross unrealized losses are primarily attributable to increases in interest rates, general credit spread widening and foreign currency exchange rate movements. As of September 30, 2024, the Company did not intend to sell these securities, and it was not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these securities before the anticipated recovery of the remaining amortized cost basis.

See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for additional information about the Company's methodology for developing our allowance and expected losses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the net increase in the allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities was primarily related to net additions within the consumer non-cyclical and technology sectors within corporate securities due to adverse projected cashflows. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the net decrease in the allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities was primarily related to net reductions within the utility sector within corporate securities due to an investment restructuring.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the net increase in the allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities was primarily related to net additions within the consumer non-cyclical, capital goods and technology sectors within corporate securities due to adverse projected cashflows. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the net decrease in the allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities was primarily related to net reductions within the capital goods and utility sectors within corporate securities due to investment restructurings, partially offset by net additions within the technology and finance sectors within corporate securities due to adverse projected cashflows.
The Company did not have any fixed maturity securities purchased with credit deterioration as of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Fixed Maturities, Trading
The net change in unrealized gains (losses) from fixed maturities, trading still held at period end, recorded within “Other income (loss),” was $149.0 million and $(221.6) million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $16.8 million and $(179.0) million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Equity Securities

The net change in unrealized gains (losses) from equity securities still held at period end, recorded within “Other income (loss),” was $37.6 million and $(10.9) million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $16.2 million and $(2.8) million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for additional information about the Company's methodology for developing our allowance and expected losses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the net increase in the allowance for credit losses on commercial mortgage and other loans was in the loan specific allowance within agricultural property loans and in the general allowance due to loan originations. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the net increase in the allowance for credit losses on commercial mortgage and other loans was due to an increase in the loan specific allowance in commercial mortgage loans within the office sector and an increase in the general allowance due to declining market conditions and loan originations.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the net increase in the allowance for credit losses on commercial mortgage and other loans was primarily related to an increase in the loan specific allowance in commercial mortgage loans within the office sector and within agricultural property loans and in the general allowance due to loan originations partially offset by loan payoffs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the net increase in the allowance for credit losses on commercial mortgage and other loans was primarily related to an increase in loan specific allowance in commercial mortgage loans within the office sector and an increase in the general allowance due to declining market conditions and loan originations.
