NOTE ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd. contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. In particular, statements using words such as “may,” “should,” “estimate,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential,” or words of similar import generally involve forward-looking statements. For example, we may include certain forward-looking statements in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” with regard to trends in results, prices, volumes, operations, investment results, margins, combined ratios, fees, reserves, market conditions, risk management and exchange rates; the impact of the Validus Acquisition on our business; the consequences of our strategic decisions; the performance of our underwriting portfolio, Capital Partners unit, and investment portfolio; and the impact of general economic conditions such as changes in inflation and interest rates on our results of operations. This Form 10-Q also contains forward-looking statements with respect to our business and industry, such as those relating to our strategy and management objectives, plans and expectations regarding our response and ability to adapt to changing economic conditions, market standing and product volumes, competition and new entrants in our industry, industry capital, insured losses from loss events, government initiatives and regulatory matters affecting the (re)insurance industries, and our integration of, and realization of benefits from, the Validus Acquisition (as hereinafter defined).
The inclusion of forward-looking statements in this report should not be considered as a representation by us or any other person that our current objectives or plans will be achieved. Numerous factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those addressed by the forward-looking statements, including the following:
our exposure to natural and non-natural catastrophic events and circumstances and the variance they may cause in our financial results;
the effect of climate change on our business, including the trend towards increasingly frequent and severe climate events;
the effectiveness of our claims and claim expense reserving process;
the effect of emerging claims and coverage issues;
the performance of our investment portfolio and financial market volatility;
the effects of inflation;
the ability of our ceding companies and delegated authority counterparties to accurately assess the risks they underwrite;
our ability to maintain our financial strength ratings;
our reliance on a small number of brokers;
the highly competitive nature of our industry;
the historically cyclical nature of the (re)insurance industries;
collection on claimed retrocessional coverage, and new retrocessional reinsurance being available on acceptable terms or at all;
our ability to attract and retain key executives and employees;
our ability to successfully implement our business, strategies and initiatives;
difficulties in integrating the Validus Business;
our exposure to credit loss from counterparties;
our need to make many estimates and judgments in the preparation of our financial statements;
our exposure to risks associated with our management of capital on behalf of investors in joint ventures or other entities we manage;
changes to the accounting rules and regulatory systems applicable to our business, including changes in Bermuda and U.S. laws or regulations;
the effect of current or future macroeconomic or geopolitical events or trends, including the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, and Israel and Hamas;
other political, regulatory or industry initiatives adversely impacting us;
our ability to comply with covenants in our debt agreements;
5


the effect of adverse economic factors, including changes in the prevailing interest rates;
the impact of cybersecurity risks, including technology breaches or failure;
a contention by the IRS that any of our Bermuda subsidiaries are subject to taxation in the U.S.;
the effects of new or possible future tax reform legislation and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including recent changes in Bermuda tax law;
our ability to determine any impairments taken on our investments;
our ability to raise capital on acceptable terms, including through debt instruments, the capital markets, and third party investments in our joint ventures and managed fund partners;
our ability to comply with applicable sanctions and foreign corrupt practices laws; and
our dependence on capital distributions from our operating subsidiaries.
As a consequence, our future financial condition and results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us. The factors listed above, which are discussed in more detail in our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2024, and Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, should not be construed as exhaustive. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to revise or update forward-looking statements to reflect new information, events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

RENAISSANCERE HOLDINGS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2024
(unless otherwise noted, amounts in tables expressed in thousands of United States (“U.S.”) dollars,
except shares, per share amounts and percentages) (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION
This report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with RenaissanceRe’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (“Form 10-K”). RenaissanceRe was formed under the laws of Bermuda on June 7, 1993. Through its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, joint ventures and managed funds, the Company provides property, casualty and specialty reinsurance and certain insurance solutions to its customers.
These consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company, its subsidiaries, and all variable interest entities in which the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, except as described below.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position and results of operations as at the end of and for the periods presented. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated from these statements.
Certain comparative information has been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Because of the seasonality of the Company’s business, the results of operations and cash flows for any interim period will not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations and cash flows for the full fiscal year or subsequent quarters.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported and disclosed amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The major estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the reserve for claims and claim expenses; reinsurance recoverable and premiums receivable, including provisions for reinsurance recoverable and premiums receivable to reflect expected credit losses; estimates of written and earned premiums; fair value, including the fair value of investments, financial instruments and derivatives; impairment charges; deferred acquisition costs, the value of business acquired (“VOBA”) and the fair value of other assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions; and the Company’s deferred tax valuation allowance.

NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The use of fair value to measure certain assets and liabilities with resulting unrealized gains or losses is pervasive within the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Fair value is defined under accounting guidance currently applicable to the Company as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between open market participants at the measurement date. The Company recognizes the change in unrealized gains or losses arising from changes in fair value in its consolidated statements of operations.
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, prescribes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to the respective valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to valuation techniques that use at least one significant input that is unobservable (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices obtained from active markets for identical assets or liabilities for which the Company has access at the measurement date. The fair value is determined by multiplying the quoted price by the quantity held by the Company;
Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals, broker quotes and certain pricing indices; and
Level 3 inputs are based all or in part on significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In these cases, significant management assumptions can be used to establish management’s best estimate of the assumptions used by other market participants in determining the fair value of the asset or liability.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and the Company considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
In order to determine if a market is active or inactive for a security, the Company considers a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the spread between what a seller is asking for a security and what a buyer is bidding for the same security, the volume of trading activity for the security in question, the price of the security compared to its par value (for fixed maturity investments), and other factors that may be indicative of market activity. 
There have been no material changes in the Company’s valuation techniques, nor have there been any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, or Level 2 and Level 3 during the period represented by these consolidated financial statements.

Level 1 and Level 2 Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
Fixed Maturity Investments
Fixed maturity investments included in Level 1 consist of the Company’s investments in U.S. treasuries. Fixed maturity investments included in Level 2 are agencies, corporate (including non-U.S. government-backed corporate), non-U.S. government, residential mortgage-backed, commercial mortgage-backed and asset-backed.


18


The Company’s fixed maturity investments are primarily priced using pricing services, such as index providers and pricing vendors, as well as broker quotations. In general, the pricing vendors provide pricing for a high volume of liquid securities that are actively traded. For securities that do not trade on an exchange, the pricing services generally utilize market data and other observable inputs in matrix pricing models to determine month end prices. Observable inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, bids, offers, reference data and industry and economic events. Index pricing generally relies on market traders as the primary source for pricing; however, models are also utilized to provide prices for all index eligible securities. The models use a variety of observable inputs such as benchmark yields, transactional data, dealer runs, broker-dealer quotes and corporate actions. Prices are generally verified using third-party data. Securities which are priced by an index provider are generally included in the index.
In general, broker-dealers value securities through their trading desks based on observable inputs. The methodologies include mapping securities based on trade data, bids or offers, observed spreads, and performance on newly issued securities. Broker-dealers also determine valuations by observing secondary trading of similar securities. Prices obtained from broker quotations are considered non-binding, however they are based on observable inputs and by observing secondary trading of similar securities obtained from active and non-distressed markets.
The Company considers these broker quotations to be Level 2 inputs as they are corroborated with other market observable inputs. The techniques generally used to determine the fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity investments are detailed below by asset class.
U.S. Treasuries
Level 1 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s U.S. treasuries fixed maturity investments are primarily priced by pricing services and had a weighted average yield to maturity of 4.4% and a weighted average credit quality of AA (December 31, 2023 - 4.1% and AA, respectively). When pricing these securities, the pricing services utilize daily data from many real time market sources, including active broker-dealers. Certain data sources are regularly reviewed for accuracy to attempt to ensure the most reliable price source is used for each issue and maturity date.
Corporate
Level 2 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s corporate fixed maturity investments principally consist of U.S. and international corporations and non-U.S. government-backed corporations and had a weighted average yield to maturity of 5.8% and a weighted average credit quality of BBB (December 31, 2023 - 5.7% and BBB, respectively).
The Company’s corporate fixed maturity investments, other than non-U.S. government-backed corporations, are primarily priced by pricing services. When evaluating these securities, the pricing services gather information from market sources regarding the issuer of the security and obtain credit data, as well as other observations, from markets and sector news. Evaluations are updated by obtaining broker-dealer quotes and other market information including actual trade volumes, when available. The pricing services also consider the specific terms and conditions of the securities, including any specific features which may influence risk. In certain instances, securities are individually evaluated using a spread which is added to the U.S. treasury curve or a security specific swap curve as appropriate.
Non-U.S. government-backed corporate fixed maturity investments are primarily priced by pricing services that employ proprietary discounted cash flow models to value the securities. Key quantitative inputs for these models are daily observed benchmark curves for treasury, swap and high quality credits. The pricing services then apply a credit spread to the respective curve for each security which is developed by in-depth and real time market analysis. For securities in which trade volume is low, the pricing services utilize data from more frequently traded securities with similar attributes. These models may also be supplemented by daily market and credit research for international markets.


19


Agencies
Level 2 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s agency fixed maturity investments had a weighted average yield to maturity of 5.0% and a weighted average credit quality of AA (December 31, 2023 - 4.6% and AA, respectively). The issuers of the Company’s agency fixed maturity investments primarily consist of the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation and other agencies. Fixed maturity investments included in agencies are primarily priced by pricing services. When evaluating these securities, the pricing services gather information from market sources and integrate other observations from markets and sector news. Evaluations are updated by obtaining broker-dealer quotes and other market information including actual trade volumes, when available. The fair value of each security is individually computed using analytical models which incorporate option adjusted spreads and other daily interest rate data.
Non-U.S. Government
Level 2 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s non-U.S. government fixed maturity investments had a weighted average yield to maturity of 4.7% and a weighted average credit quality of AA (December 31, 2023 - 4.4% and AA, respectively). The issuers of securities in this sector are non-U.S. governments and their respective agencies as well as supranational organizations. Securities held in these sectors are primarily priced by pricing services that employ proprietary discounted cash flow models to value the securities. Key quantitative inputs for these models are daily observed benchmark curves for treasury, swap and high issuance credits. The pricing services then apply a credit spread for each security which is developed by in-depth and real time market analysis. For securities in which trade volume is low, the pricing services utilize data from more frequently traded securities with similar attributes. These models may also be supplemented by daily market and credit research for international markets.
Residential Mortgage-backed
Level 2 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s residential mortgage-backed fixed maturity investments had a weighted average yield of maturity of 5.3%, a weighted average credit quality of AA, and a weighted average life of 7.7 years (December 31, 2023 - 5.1%, AA and 7.7 years, respectively). Residential mortgage-backed securities include both agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities. The Company’s agency mortgage-backed fixed maturity investments are primarily priced by pricing services using a mortgage pool specific model which utilizes daily inputs from the active to-be-announced market which is very liquid, as well as the U.S. treasury market. The model also utilizes additional information, such as the weighted average maturity, weighted average coupon and other available pool level data which is provided by the sponsoring agency. Valuations are also corroborated with active market quotes.
Non-agency mortgage-based securities are primarily priced by pricing services using an option adjusted spread model or other relevant models, which principally utilize inputs including benchmark yields, available trade information or broker quotes, and issuer spreads. The pricing services also review collateral prepayment speeds, loss severity and delinquencies among other collateral performance indicators for the securities valuation, when applicable.
Commercial Mortgage-backed
Level 2 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s commercial mortgage-backed fixed maturity investments had a weighted average yield to maturity of 6.9%, a weighted average credit quality of AAA, and a weighted average life of 2.6 years (December 31, 2023 - 8.8%, AAA and 2.2 years, respectively). Securities held in these sectors are primarily priced by pricing services. The pricing services apply dealer quotes and other available trade information such as bids and offers, prepayment speeds which may be adjusted for the underlying collateral or current price data, the U.S. treasury curve and swap curve as well as cash settlement. The pricing services discount the expected cash flows for each security held in this sector using a spread adjusted benchmark yield based on the characteristics of the security.



20


Asset-backed
Level 2 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s asset-backed fixed maturity investments had a weighted average yield to maturity of 6.9%, a weighted average credit quality of AA and a weighted average life of 4.3 years (December 31, 2023 - 7.0%, AA and 3.9 years, respectively). The underlying collateral for the Company’s asset-backed fixed maturity investments primarily consists of collateralized loan obligations and other receivables. Securities held in these sectors are primarily priced by pricing services. The pricing services apply dealer quotes and other available trade information such as bids and offers, prepayment speeds which may be adjusted for the underlying collateral or current price data, the U.S. treasury curve and swap curve as well as cash settlement. The pricing services determine the expected cash flows for each security held in this sector using historical prepayment and default projections for the underlying collateral and current market data. In addition, a spread is applied to the relevant benchmark and used to discount the cash flows noted above to determine the fair value of the securities held in this sector.
Short Term Investments
Level 1 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s short term investments in U.S. treasuries are primarily priced by pricing services and had a weighted average yield to maturity of 5.1% and a weighted average credit quality of AA (December 31, 2023 - 5.3% and AAA). When pricing these securities, the pricing services utilize daily data from many real time market sources, including active broker-dealers. Certain data sources are regularly reviewed for accuracy to attempt to ensure the most reliable price source is used for each issue and maturity date.
Level 2 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s other short term investments had a weighted average yield to maturity of 5.1% and a weighted average credit quality of AAA (December 31, 2023 - 5.3% and AAA, respectively). Amortized cost approximates fair value for the majority of the remainder of the Company’s short term investments portfolio and, in certain cases, fair value is determined in a manner similar to the Company’s fixed maturity investments noted above.
Equity Investments
Level 1 - The fair value of the Company’s portfolio of equity investments are primarily priced by pricing services, reflecting the closing price quoted for the final trading day of the period. When pricing these securities, the pricing services utilize daily data from many real time market sources, including applicable securities exchanges. All data sources are regularly reviewed for accuracy to attempt to ensure the most reliable price source was used for each security.
Other Investments
Catastrophe Bonds
Level 2 - The Company’s other investments include investments in catastrophe bonds which are recorded at fair value based on broker or underwriter bid indications.
Other Assets and Liabilities
Derivatives
Level 1 and Level 2 - Other assets and liabilities include certain derivatives entered into by the Company. The fair value of these transactions includes certain exchange traded futures and options contracts which are considered Level 1, and foreign currency contracts and certain credit derivatives, determined using standard industry valuation models and considered Level 2, as the inputs to the valuation model are based on observable market inputs. For credit derivatives, these inputs include credit spreads, credit ratings of the underlying referenced security, the risk-free rate and the contract term. For foreign currency contracts, these inputs include spot rates and interest rate curves.

Other Investments
Direct Private Equity Investments
Level 3 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s other investments included $60.0 million (December 31, 2023 - $59.9 million) of direct private equity investments which are recorded at fair value, with the fair value obtained through the use of internal valuation models. The Company measured the fair value of these investments using multiples of net tangible book value of the underlying entities. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of these investments are liquidity discount rates applied to each of the net tangible book value multiples used in the internal valuation models, and discount rates applied to the expected cash flows of the underlying entities in various scenarios. These unobservable inputs in isolation can cause significant increases or decreases in fair value. Generally, an increase in the liquidity discount rate or discount rates would result in a decrease in the fair value of these private equity investments.
23


Term Loans
Level 3 - At March 31, 2024, the Company’s other investments included a $97.4 million (December 31, 2023 - $97.7 million) investment in a term loan which is recorded at fair value, with the fair value obtained through the use of a discounted cash flow model. The significant unobservable inputs used in the discounted cash flow model are the cash flow projection of the associated term loan, and the discount rate. The discount rate used is based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which is then adjusted for credit risk and a risk premium. These adjustments may be impacted by market movements implied by transactions of similar or related assets, loan-to-value, tenor, liquidity, credit risk adjustment or other risk factors. Assumptions used in the valuation process may significantly impact the resulting fair value.
Other Assets and Liabilities
Assumed and Ceded (Re)insurance Contracts
Level 3 - At March 31, 2024, the Company had a $0.5 million net liability (December 31, 2023 - $0.5 million net liability) related to assumed and ceded (re)insurance contracts accounted for at fair value, with the fair value obtained through the use of an internal valuation model. The inputs to the internal valuation model are principally based on proprietary data as observable market inputs are generally not available. The most significant unobservable inputs include the assumed and ceded expected net cash flows related to the contracts, including the expected premium, acquisition expenses and losses; the expected loss ratio and the relevant discount rate used to present value the net cash flows. The contract period and acquisition expense ratio are considered an observable input as each is defined in the contract. Generally, an increase in the net expected cash flows and expected term of the contract and a decrease in the discount rate, expected loss ratio or acquisition expense ratio, would result in an increase in the expected profit and ultimate fair value of these assumed and ceded (re)insurance contracts.
Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, at Fair Value
The Company uses various financial instruments in the normal course of its business. The Company’s (re)insurance contracts are excluded from the fair value of financial instruments accounting guidance, unless the Company elects the fair value option, and therefore, are not included in the amounts discussed herein. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accrued investment income, receivables for investments sold, certain other assets, payables for investments purchased, certain other liabilities, and other financial instruments not included herein approximated their fair values.
Debt
Included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2024 were debt obligations of $1.9 billion (December 31, 2023 - $2.0 billion). At March 31, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s debt obligations was $1.9 billion (December 31, 2023 – $1.9 billion).
The fair value of the Company’s debt obligations is determined using indicative market pricing obtained from third-party service providers, which the Company considers Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. There have been no changes during the period in the Company’s valuation technique used to determine the fair value of the Company’s debt obligations. Refer to “Note 7. Debt and Credit Facilities” for additional information related to the Company’s debt obligations.

The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
The Company has elected to account for certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value using the guidance under FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, as the Company believes it represents the most meaningful measurement basis for these assets and liabilities. Below is a summary of the balances the Company has elected to account for at fair value:
March 31,
2024
December 31,
2023
Other investments$3,468,281 $3,515,566 
Other assets$1,306 $2,227 
Other liabilities$1,823 $2,742 
The change in fair value of other investments resulted in net unrealized gains on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2024 of $26.0 million (March 31, 2023 – net unrealized gains of $30.2 million).

Private Credit Funds
The Company’s investments in private credit funds include limited partnership or similar interests that invest in certain private credit asset classes, including U.S. direct lending funds, secondaries, mezzanine investments, distressed securities and senior secured bank loan funds. The Company generally has no right to redeem its interest in any of these private credit funds in advance of dissolution of the applicable limited partnerships. Instead, distributions are received by the Company in connection with the liquidation or maturity of the underlying private credit assets of the fund. It is estimated that the majority of the underlying assets of the limited partnerships would liquidate over 5 to 10 years from inception of the limited partnership.

Private Equity Funds
The Company’s investments in private equity funds include limited partnership or similar interests that invest in certain private equity asset classes including U.S. and global leveraged buyouts. The Company generally has no right to redeem its interest in any of these private equity funds in advance of dissolution of the applicable limited partnerships. Instead, distributions are received by the Company in connection with the exit from the underlying private equity investments of the fund. It is estimated that the majority of the underlying assets of the limited partnerships would liquidate over 5 to 10 years from inception of the limited partnership.
Limited Partnerships Entities
The Company’s fund investments, included within other investments, represent variable interests in limited partnerships entities with unaffiliated fund managers in the normal course of business. The Company determined that certain of these limited partnership interests represent investments in variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and that it is not required to consolidate these investments because it is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss with respect to these VIEs is limited to the carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and any unfunded commitment.
The following table summarizes the aggregate carrying amount of the unconsolidated fund investments in VIEs, as well as our maximum exposure to loss associated with these VIEs:

NOTE 5. REINSURANCE
The Company purchases reinsurance and other protection to manage its risk portfolio and to reduce its exposure to large losses. The Company currently has in place contracts that provide for recovery of a portion of certain claims and claim expenses, generally in excess of various retentions or on a proportional basis. In addition to loss recoveries, certain of the Company’s ceded reinsurance contracts provide for payments of additional premiums, for reinstatement premiums and for lost no-claims bonuses, which are incurred when losses are ceded to the respective reinsurance contracts. The Company remains liable to the extent that any reinsurer fails to meet its obligations.
The following table sets forth the effect of reinsurance and retrocessional activity on premiums written and earned and on net claims and claim expenses incurred:

In assessing an allowance for reinsurance assets, which includes premiums receivable and reinsurance recoverable, the Company considers historical information, financial strength of reinsurers, collateralization amounts, and counterparty credit ratings to determine the appropriateness of the allowance. In assessing future default for reinsurance assets, the Company evaluates the provision for current expected credit losses under the probability of default and loss given default method. The Company utilizes its internal capital and risk models, which use counterparty ratings from major rating agencies, and assesses the current market conditions for the likelihood of default. The Company updates its internal capital and risk models for counterparty credit ratings and current market conditions on a periodic basis. Historically, the Company has not experienced material credit losses from reinsurance assets.
Premiums receivable reflect premiums written based on contract and policy terms and include estimates based on information received from both insureds and ceding companies, supplemented by our own judgement, including our estimates of premiums that are written but not reported. Due to the nature of reinsurance, ceding companies routinely report and remit premiums to us subsequent to the contract coverage period, although the time lag involved in the process of reporting and collecting premiums is typically shorter than the lag in reporting losses.




27


At March 31, 2024, the Company’s premiums receivable balance was $8.4 billion (December 31, 2023 - $7.3 billion). Of the Company’s premiums receivable balance as of March 31, 2024, the majority are receivable from highly rated counterparties. The provision for current expected credit losses on the Company’s premiums receivable was $5.0 million at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $3.5 million). The following table provides a roll forward of the provision for current expected credit losses of the Company’s premiums receivable:

Provision for (release of) allowance1,450 (1,235)
Ending balance$4,964 $3,371 
Reinsurance recoverable reflects amounts due from reinsurers based on the claim liabilities associated with the reinsurance policy. The Company accrues amounts that are due from reinsurers based on estimated ultimate losses applicable to the contracts.
At March 31, 2024, the Company’s reinsurance recoverable balance was $5.0 billion (December 31, 2023 - $5.3 billion). Of the Company’s reinsurance recoverable balance at March 31, 2024, 57.8% is fully collateralized by our reinsurers, 41.0% is recoverable from reinsurers rated A- or higher by major rating agencies and 1.2% is recoverable from reinsurers rated lower than A- by major rating agencies (December 31, 2023 - 60.6%, 38.5% and 0.9%, respectively). The reinsurers with the three largest balances accounted for 15.5%, 13.3% and 9.0%, respectively, of the Company’s reinsurance recoverable balance at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - 17.6%, 14.3% and 8.7%, respectively). The provision for current expected credit losses was $12.0 million at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $13.3 million). The three largest company-specific components of the provision for current expected credit losses represented 14.1%, 10.5% and 5.8%, respectively, of the Company’s total provision for current expected credit losses at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - 10.9%, 10.7% and 8.1%, respectively).

NOTE 6. RESERVE FOR CLAIMS AND CLAIM EXPENSES
The Company believes the most significant accounting judgment made by management is its estimate of claims and claim expense reserves. Claims and claim expense reserves represent estimates, including actuarial and statistical projections at a given point in time, of the ultimate settlement and administration costs for unpaid claims and claim expenses arising from the insurance and reinsurance contracts the Company sells. The Company’s reserve for claims and claim expenses are a combination of case reserves, additional case reserves (“ACR”) and incurred but not reported losses and incurred but not enough reported losses (collectively referred to as “IBNR”). Case reserves are losses reported to the Company by insureds and ceding companies, but which have not yet been paid. If deemed necessary and in certain situations, the Company establishes ACR which represents the Company’s estimate for claims related to specific contracts which the Company believes may not be adequately estimated by the client as of that date or within the IBNR. The Company establishes IBNR using actuarial techniques and expert judgement to represent the anticipated cost of claims which have not been reported to the Company yet, or where the Company anticipates increased reporting. The Company’s reserving committee, which includes members of the Company’s senior management, reviews, discusses, and assesses the reasonableness and adequacy of the reserving estimates included in our unaudited consolidated financial statements.
The following table summarizes the Company’s reserve for claims and claim expenses by segment, allocated between case reserves, additional case reserves and IBNR:

Prior Year Development of the Reserve for Net Claims and Claim Expenses
The Company’s estimates of claims and claim expense reserves are not precise in that, among other things, they are based on predictions of future developments and estimates of future trends and other variable factors. Some, but not all, of the Company’s reserves are further subject to the uncertainty inherent in actuarial methodologies and estimates. Because a reserve estimate is simply an insurer’s estimate at a point in time of its ultimate liability, and because there are numerous factors that affect reserves and claims payments that cannot be determined with certainty in advance, the Company’s ultimate payments will vary, perhaps materially, from its estimates of reserves. If the Company determines in a subsequent period that adjustments to its previously established reserves are appropriate, such adjustments are recorded in the period in which they are identified. On a net basis, the Company’s cumulative favorable or unfavorable development is generally reduced by offsetting changes in its reinsurance recoverable, as well as changes to loss related premiums such as reinstatement premiums and redeemable noncontrolling interest, all of which generally move in the opposite direction to changes in the Company’s ultimate claims and claim expenses.
The following table details the Company’s prior year net development by segment of its net claims and claim expenses:

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest – DaVinci
DaVinci is a managed joint venture formed by RenaissanceRe principally to write property catastrophe reinsurance and certain casualty and specialty reinsurance lines of business on a global basis through its wholly-owned subsidiary, DaVinci Reinsurance. RenaissanceRe owns a noncontrolling economic interest in DaVinci; however, because RenaissanceRe controls a majority of DaVinci’s outstanding voting rights, the Company consolidates DaVinci and all significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The portion of DaVinci’s earnings owned by third parties is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests. The Company’s noncontrolling economic ownership in DaVinci was 23.9% at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - 27.8%).
DaVinci shareholders are party to a shareholders agreement which provides DaVinci shareholders, excluding RenaissanceRe, with certain redemption rights that enable each shareholder to notify DaVinci of such shareholder’s desire for DaVinci to repurchase up to half of such shareholder’s initial aggregate number of shares held, subject to certain limitations, such as limiting the aggregate of all share repurchase requests to 25% of DaVinci’s capital in any given year and satisfying all applicable regulatory requirements. If total shareholder requests exceed 25% of DaVinci’s capital, the number of shares repurchased will be reduced among the requesting shareholders pro-rata, based on the amounts desired to be repurchased. Shareholders desiring to have DaVinci repurchase their shares must notify DaVinci before March 1 of each year. The repurchase price will be based on GAAP book value as of the end of the year in which the shareholder notice is given, and the repurchase will be effective as of December 31 of that year. The repurchase price can be subject to a holdback and true-up for potential development on outstanding loss reserves. Similarly, when shares are issued by DaVinci and sold to DaVinci shareholders, the sale price is based on GAAP book value as of the end of the period preceding the sale and can be subject to a true-up for potential development on outstanding loss reserves.
2024
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, RenaissanceRe sold an aggregate of $300.0 million of its shares in DaVinci to third-party investors and purchased an aggregate of $175.0 million of shares from other third-party investors. In addition, DaVinci distributed $355.6 million to third-party investors and

RenaissanceRe indirectly owns a portion of the participating non-voting preference shares of three of the existing segregated accounts of Upsilon RFO (Upsilon RFO Diversified I, II and III) and all of Upsilon RFO’s voting Class A shares. The shareholders (other than the voting Class A shareholder) participate in all of the profits or losses of Upsilon RFO while their shares remain outstanding. The shareholders (other than the voting Class A shareholder) indemnify Upsilon RFO against losses relating to insurance risk, and therefore, these shares have been accounted for as prospective reinsurance under FASB ASC Topic 944, Financial Services - Insurance.
Upsilon RFO is considered a VIE as it has insufficient equity capital to finance its activities without additional financial support. The Company is the primary beneficiary of Upsilon RFO Diversified I, II and III as it has
37


the power over the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of those segregated accounts and has the obligation to absorb expected losses and the right to receive expected benefits that could be significant to those segregated accounts, in accordance with the accounting guidance. As a result, the Company consolidates Upsilon RFO Diversified I, II and III and all significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated.
The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of Upsilon RFO Diversified IV, as it does not have the obligation to absorb expected losses and the right to receive expected benefits that could be significant to that segregated account, in accordance with the accounting guidance. As a result, the Company does not consolidate the financial position or results of operations of Upsilon RFO Diversified IV. The Company does not have, has not previously had, and does not expect to have, a material investment in Upsilon RFO Diversified IV. In addition, the Company expects its absolute and relative ownership in Upsilon RFO Diversified IV to remain minimal.

NOTE 12. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company’s reportable segments are defined as follows: (1) Property, which is comprised of catastrophe and other property (re)insurance written on behalf of the Company’s consolidated operating subsidiaries, joint ventures and managed funds, and (2) Casualty and Specialty, which is comprised of casualty and specialty (re)insurance written on behalf of the Company’s consolidated operating subsidiaries, joint ventures and managed funds. In addition to its reportable segments, the Company has an Other category, which primarily includes its investments unit, strategic investments, corporate expenses, capital servicing costs, noncontrolling interests and certain expenses related to acquisitions and dispositions.
The Company does not manage its assets by segment; accordingly, net investment income and total assets are not allocated to the segments.
A summary of the significant components of the Company’s revenues and expenses by segment is as follows:

NOTE 13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
From time to time, the Company may enter into derivative instruments such as futures, options, swaps, forward contracts and other derivative contracts primarily to manage its foreign currency exposure, obtain exposure to a particular financial market, for yield enhancement, or for trading and to assume or hedge risk. The Company’s derivative instruments can be exchange traded or over-the-counter, with over-the-counter derivatives generally traded under International Swaps and Derivatives Association master agreements, which establish the terms of the transactions entered into with the Company’s derivative counterparties. In the event a party becomes insolvent or otherwise defaults on its obligations, a master agreement generally permits the non-defaulting party to accelerate and terminate all outstanding transactions and net the transactions’ marked-to-market values so that a single sum in a single currency will be owed by, or owed to, the non-defaulting party. Effectively, this contractual close-out netting reduces credit exposure from gross to net exposure. Where the Company has entered into master netting agreements with counterparties, or the Company has the legal and contractual right to offset positions, the derivative positions are generally netted by counterparty and are reported accordingly in other assets and other liabilities.
The Company is not aware of the existence of any credit-risk related contingent features that it believes would be triggered in its derivative instruments that are in a net liability position at March 31, 2024.

Derivative Instruments Not Designated as Hedges
Interest Rate Derivatives
The Company uses interest rate futures and swaps within its portfolio of fixed maturity investments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk, which may result in increasing or decreasing its exposure to this risk.
Interest Rate Futures
The fair value of interest rate futures is determined using exchange traded prices. At March 31, 2024, the Company had $5.2 billion of notional long positions and $2.7 billion of notional short positions of primarily U.S. treasury and Eurozone government bond futures contracts (December 31, 2023 - $5.9 billion and $2.7 billion, respectively, of primarily U.S. treasury and Eurozone government bond futures contracts).
Foreign Currency Derivatives
The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. The Company writes a portion of its business in currencies other than U.S. dollars and may, from time to time, experience foreign exchange gains and losses in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The impact of changes in exchange rates on the Company’s assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, excluding non-monetary assets and liabilities, are recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
48


Underwriting and Non-investments Operations Related Foreign Currency Contracts
The Company’s foreign currency policy with regard to its underwriting operations is generally to enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts for notional values that approximate the foreign currency liabilities, including claims and claim expense reserves and reinsurance balances payable, net of any cash, investments and receivables held in the respective foreign currency. The Company’s use of foreign currency forward and option contracts is intended to minimize the effect of fluctuating foreign currencies on the value of non-U.S. dollar denominated assets and liabilities associated with its underwriting operations. The Company may determine not to match a portion of its projected underwriting related assets or liabilities with underlying foreign currency exposure with investments in the same currencies, which would increase its exposure to foreign currency fluctuations and potentially increase the impact and volatility of foreign exchange gains and losses on its results of operations. The fair value of the Company’s underwriting operations related foreign currency contracts is determined using indicative pricing obtained from counterparties or broker quotes. At March 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding underwriting related foreign currency contracts of $379.8 million in notional long positions and $384.4 million in notional short positions, denominated in U.S. dollars (December 31, 2023 - $805.2 million and $496.4 million, respectively).
Investment Portfolio Related Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
The Company’s investment operations are exposed to currency fluctuations through its investments in non-U.S. dollar fixed maturity investments, short term investments and other investments. From time to time, the Company may employ foreign currency forward contracts in its investment portfolio to either assume foreign currency risk or to economically hedge its exposure to currency fluctuations from these investments. The fair value of the Company’s investment portfolio related foreign currency forward contracts is determined using an interpolated rate based on closing forward market rates. At March 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding investment portfolio related foreign currency contracts of $297.7 million in notional long positions and $100.2 million in notional short positions, denominated in U.S. dollars (December 31, 2023 - $420.7 million and $130.0 million, respectively).
Credit Derivatives
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is primarily due to its fixed maturity investments, short term investments, premiums receivable and reinsurance recoverable. From time to time, the Company may purchase credit derivatives to manage its exposures in the insurance industry, and to assist in managing the credit risk associated with ceded reinsurance. The Company also employs credit derivatives in its investment portfolio to either assume credit risk or manage its credit exposure.
Credit Default Swaps
The fair value of the Company’s credit default swaps is determined using industry valuation models, broker bid indications or internal pricing valuation techniques. The fair value of these credit default swaps can change based on a variety of factors including changes in credit spreads, default rates and recovery rates, the correlation of credit risk between the referenced credit and the counterparty, and market rate inputs such as interest rates. At March 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding credit default swaps of $1.5 billion in notional positions to hedge credit risk and $12.5 million in notional positions to assume credit risk, denominated in U.S. dollars (December 31, 2023 - $1.5 billion and $22.1 million, respectively).
Equity Derivatives
Equity Futures
From time to time, the Company uses equity derivatives in its investment portfolio to either assume equity risk or hedge its equity exposure. The fair value of the Company’s equity futures is determined using market-based prices from pricing vendors. At March 31, 2024, the Company had no notional positions of equity futures, denominated in U.S. dollars (December 31, 2023 - no notional position).
49


Commodity Derivatives
The Company uses commodity derivatives within its investments portfolio of fixed maturity investments to manage its exposures in the insurance industry, and to assist in managing the market risk associated with ceded reinsurance. Commodity derivatives expose the Company to potentially unfavorable price changes to the underlying commodities.
Commodity Futures
The fair value of the Company’s commodity futures is determined using market-based prices from pricing vendors. At March 31, 2024, the Company had a $374.0 million notional long position of commodity futures, denominated in U.S. dollars (December 31, 2023 - $255.2 million notional long position).
Commodity Options
An option contract provides its owner the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell specified amounts of a commodity at a contracted price during a specified period or on a specified date. The maximum risk of loss to the Company is the fair value of the contracts and the premiums paid to purchase its open options. The fair value of these derivatives is determined using market-based prices from pricing vendors. At March 31, 2024, the Company had $44.0 thousand of notional long positions and $nil of notional short positions of exchange traded commodity option contracts (December 31, 2023 - $0.4 million and $nil, respectively).
Derivative Instruments Designated as Hedges of Net Investments in Foreign Operations
Foreign Currency Derivatives
Hedges of Net Investments in Foreign Operations
One of the Company’s subsidiaries currently uses a non-U.S. dollar functional currency. The Company, from time to time, enters into foreign exchange forwards to hedge non-U.S. dollar functional currencies, on an after-tax basis, from changes in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and these currencies.
As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, this included the Australian dollar net investment in a foreign operation. These foreign exchange forward contracts were formally designated as hedges of its investment in subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies and there was no ineffectiveness in these transactions.
The table below provides a summary of derivative instruments designated as hedges of net investments in a foreign operation, including the weighted average U.S. dollar equivalent of foreign denominated net (liabilities) assets that were hedged and the resulting derivative gains (losses) that are recorded in foreign currency translation adjustments, net of tax, within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Company’s consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity:

NOTE 14. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER ITEMS
There are no material changes from the commitments, contingencies and other items previously disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Legal Proceedings
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to lawsuits and regulatory actions in the normal course of business that do not arise from or directly relate to claims on reinsurance treaties or contracts or direct surplus lines insurance policies. In the Company’s industry, business litigation may involve allegations of underwriting or claims-handling errors or misconduct, disputes relating to the scope of, or compliance with, the terms of delegated underwriting agreements, employment claims, regulatory actions or disputes arising from the Company’s business ventures. The Company’s operating subsidiaries are subject to claims litigation involving, among other things, disputed interpretations of policy coverages. Generally, the Company’s direct surplus lines insurance operations are subject to greater frequency and diversity of claims and claims-related litigation than its reinsurance operations and, in some jurisdictions, may be subject to direct actions by allegedly injured persons or entities seeking damages from policyholders. These lawsuits, involving or arising out of claims on policies issued by the Company’s subsidiaries which are typical to the insurance industry in general and in the normal course of business, are considered in its loss and loss expense reserves. In addition, the Company may from time to time engage in litigation or arbitration related to its claims for payment in respect of ceded reinsurance, including disputes that challenge the Company’s ability to enforce its underwriting intent. Such matters could result, directly or indirectly, in providers of protection not meeting their obligations to the Company or not doing so on a timely basis. The Company may also be subject to other disputes from time to time, relating to operational or other matters distinct from insurance or reinsurance claims. Any litigation or arbitration, or regulatory process contains an element of uncertainty, and the value of an exposure or a gain contingency related to a dispute is difficult to estimate. The Company believes that no individual litigation or arbitration to which it is presently a party is likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, business or operations.

INDEX TO MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW
RenaissanceRe is a global provider of reinsurance and insurance that specializes in matching desirable risk with efficient capital. We provide property, casualty and specialty reinsurance and certain insurance solutions to customers, principally through intermediaries. Established in 1993, we have offices in Bermuda, Australia, Canada, Ireland, Singapore, Switzerland, the U.K., and the U.S. We are one of the world’s leading providers of property, casualty and specialty reinsurance solutions.
Our mission is to match desirable risk with efficient capital to achieve our vision of being the best underwriter. We believe that this will allow us to produce superior returns for our shareholders over the long term, and to enable our purpose of protecting communities and enabling prosperity. We seek to accomplish these goals by (i) being a trusted, long-term partner to our customers for assessing and managing risk, (ii) delivering responsive and innovative solutions, (iii) leveraging our core capabilities of risk assessment and information management, (iv) investing in these core capabilities in order to serve our customers across market cycles, and (v) keeping our promises.
Our core products include property, casualty and specialty reinsurance, and certain insurance products, principally distributed through intermediaries with whom we have cultivated strong long-term relationships. Our business consists of the following reportable segments: (1) Property, which is comprised of catastrophe and other property (re)insurance, and (2) Casualty and Specialty, which is comprised of general casualty, professional liability, credit and other specialty (re)insurance. The underwriting results of our consolidated operating subsidiaries and underwriting platforms are included in our Property and Casualty and Specialty segment results as appropriate.
Our strategy focuses on operating as an integrated system of three competitive advantages: superior risk selection, superior customer relationships and superior capital management. We provide value to our customers and partners in the form of financial security, innovative products, and responsive service. We are known as a leader in paying valid claims promptly.
We have three principal drivers of profit that generate diversified earnings streams for our business - underwriting income, fee income, and investment income. Underwriting income is the income that we earn from our core underwriting business. By accepting the volatility that this business brings, we believe that we can generate superior long-term returns and achieve our vision. Fee income is the income that we earn primarily from managing third-party capital in our Capital Partners unit and is composed of management fee income and performance fee income. Investment income is income derived from the investment portfolio that we maintain to support our business. We take a disciplined approach in building a relatively conservative, well-structured investment portfolio with a focus on fixed income investments. Compared to underwriting income, we view fee income, in particular management fee income, and investment income, as relatively stable, less volatile, and capital efficient sources of income.
We principally measure our financial success through long-term growth in tangible book value per common share plus the change in accumulated dividends. We believe this metric is the most appropriate measure of our financial performance, and in respect of which we believe we have delivered superior performance over time.
Our current business strategy focuses predominantly on writing reinsurance. We also write excess and surplus lines insurance through delegated authority arrangements, and typically underwrite insurance risks in portfolio form. Additionally, we pursue a number of other opportunities, such as creating and managing our joint ventures and managed funds, executing customized reinsurance transactions to assume or cede risk, and managing certain strategic investments. We continually explore appropriate and efficient ways to address the risk management needs of our clients and the impact of various regulatory and legislative changes on our operations. From time to time we consider diversification into new ventures, either through organic growth, the formation of new joint ventures or managed funds, or the acquisition of, or the investment in, other companies or books of business of other companies.


54



Revenues and Expenses
Our revenues are principally derived from three sources: (1) net premiums earned from the reinsurance and insurance policies we sell; (2) net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains from the investment of our capital funds and the investment of the cash we receive on the policies which we sell; and (3) fees received from our joint ventures, managed funds and structured reinsurance products, which are primarily reflected in redeemable noncontrolling interest or as an offset to acquisition or operational expenses.
Our expenses primarily consist of: (1) net claims and claim expenses incurred on the policies of reinsurance and insurance we sell; (2) acquisition costs, which typically represent a percentage of the premiums we write; (3) operational expenses, which primarily consist of personnel expenses, rent and other expenses; (4) corporate expenses, which include certain executive, legal and consulting expenses, costs for research and development, transaction and integration-related expenses, and other miscellaneous costs, including those associated with operating as a publicly traded company; and (5) interest and dividends related to our debt and preference shares. We are also subject to taxes in certain jurisdictions in which we operate. Historically, the majority of our income has been earned in Bermuda, which did not have a corporate income tax, so the tax impact to our operations has been minimal. However, on December 27, 2023, the Government of Bermuda announced the implementation of a 15% corporate income tax effective January 1, 2025. We expect that this development, along with the implementation of the OECD’s Pillar Two regime in the jurisdictions in which we operate, will increase our income taxes in the future. We believe that the flexible global operating model that we have utilized will continue to prove resilient.
The underwriting results of an insurance or reinsurance company are discussed frequently by reference to its net claims and claim expense ratio, underwriting expense ratio, and combined ratio. The net claims and claim expense ratio is calculated by dividing net claims and claim expenses incurred by net premiums earned. The underwriting expense ratio is calculated by dividing underwriting expenses (acquisition expenses and operational expenses) by net premiums earned. The combined ratio is the sum of the net claims and claim expense ratio and the underwriting expense ratio. A combined ratio below 100% indicates profitable underwriting prior to the consideration of investment income. A combined ratio over 100% indicates unprofitable underwriting prior to the consideration of investment income. We also discuss our net claims and claim expense ratio on a current accident year basis and a prior accident years basis. The current accident year net claims and claim expense ratio is calculated by taking current accident year net claims and claim expenses incurred, divided by net premiums earned. The prior accident years net claims and claim expense ratio is calculated by taking prior accident years net claims and claim expenses incurred, divided by net premiums earned.
We manage DaVinci, Fontana, Medici, and Vermeer, and own all, or a majority, of the voting interests, but own no, or a minority, economic interest of each. As a result of our controlling voting interests, we fully consolidate these entities in our financial statements, even though we do not retain the full value of the economic outcomes generated by these entities. The portions of the economic outcomes that are not retained by us are ultimately allocated to the third-party investors who hold the noncontrolling interests in these entities. The economic outcomes may include underwriting results, investments results, and foreign exchange impacts, among other items. For example, if one of these entities were to generate underwriting losses due to a natural catastrophe, the full amount would be reflected in net income (loss) on our consolidated statements of operations, but ultimately we would only retain a portion of that amount in our net income (loss) attributable to RenaissanceRe. In the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations, the portion of these items attributable to third parties is reflected in “Net (income) loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests” line item. Refer to “Note 8. Noncontrolling Interests” in our “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our redeemable noncontrolling interests and how this accounting treatment impacts the Company’s financial results.
Effects of Inflation
General economic inflation has increased over the past few years compared to recent historical norms, and there is a risk of inflation remaining elevated for an extended period, which could cause claims and claims related expenses to increase, impact the performance of our investment portfolio, or have other adverse
55


effects. This risk may be exacerbated by geopolitical factors and global supply chain issues, among other factors, from time to time. Many central banks have raised interest rates, which could act as a countervailing force against some of these inflationary pressures, but this could be partially offset if some central banks begin to cut rates too soon. The actual effects of the current and potential future increase in inflation on our results cannot be accurately known until, among other items, claims are ultimately settled. The duration and severity of an inflationary period cannot be estimated with precision. We consider the anticipated effects of inflation on us in our catastrophe loss models and on our investment portfolio. Our estimates of the potential effects of inflation are also considered in pricing and in estimating reserves for unpaid claims and claim expenses. The potential exists, after a catastrophe loss, for the development of inflationary pressures in a local economy.

The most significant items affecting our financial performance during the first quarter of 2024, on a comparative basis to the first quarter of 2023, include:
Underwriting Results - we generated underwriting income of $540.7 million and had a combined ratio of 77.9% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to underwriting income of $369.6 million and a combined ratio of 78.0% in the first quarter of 2023. Our underwriting income in the first quarter of 2024 was comprised of our Property segment, which generated underwriting income of $534.4 million and had a combined ratio of 42.9%, and our Casualty and Specialty segment, which generated underwriting income of $6.3 million and had a combined ratio of 99.6%. In comparison, our underwriting income in the first quarter of 2023 was comprised of our Property segment, which generated underwriting income of $298.7 million and had a combined ratio of 56.6%, and our Casualty and Specialty segment, which generated underwriting income of $70.9 million and had a combined ratio of 92.9%;
Notwithstanding our strong results in the first quarter of 2024, our underwriting results in the first quarter of 2024 were impacted by the Baltimore Bridge Collapse, which resulted in a net negative impact on the underwriting result of $79.9 million and added 3.3 percentage points to the consolidated combined ratio, primarily within the Casualty and Specialty segment. This compares to the first quarter of 2023, which was impacted by the Q1 2023 Large Loss Events, which resulted in a net negative impact on the underwriting result of $79.1 million and added 4.7 percentage points to the consolidated combined ratio, all in the Property segment;
Gross Premiums Written - our gross premiums written increased by $1.2 billion, or 43.0%, to $4.0 billion, in the first quarter of 2024, compared to the first quarter of 2023. This was comprised of an increase of $614.7 million in our Casualty and Specialty segment and $585.7 million in our Property segment, both primarily driven by the renewal of business acquired in the Validus Acquisition, in conjunction with the retention of legacy lines;
Investment Results - our total investment result, which includes net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments, was income of $177.1 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $533.8 million in the first quarter of 2023, a decrease of $356.7 million. The primary drivers of the lower total investment result were net realized and unrealized losses on investments in the first quarter of 2024, compared to net realized and unrealized gains in the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by an increase in net investment income. Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments reduced $493.1 million as a result of net realized and unrealized losses on fixed maturity investments, primarily driven by increases in interest rates in the first quarter of 2024, compared to net realized and unrealized gains in the first quarter of 2023 due to decreases in interest rates during the period. Net investment income increased by $136.4 million due to a combination of higher average invested assets, primarily resulting from the Validus Acquisition, and higher yielding assets;
Net Income Attributable to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests - our net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests was $244.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $267.4 million in the first quarter of 2023. The higher net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by improved underwriting results generated by DaVinci and Vermeer, and higher net investment income resulting from higher interest rates and yields within the investment portfolios of our joint ventures and managed funds; and
Impact of Large Loss Events - we had a net negative impact on net income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders of $54.5 million resulting from the Baltimore Bridge Collapse. This compares to a net negative impact on net loss attributable to RenaissanceRe common shareholders of $53.5 million resulting from the Q1 2023 Large Loss Events.
58


Net Negative Impact
Net negative impact on underwriting result includes the sum of (1) net claims and claim expenses incurred, (2) assumed and ceded reinstatement premiums earned and (3) earned and lost profit commissions. Net negative impact on net income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders is the sum of (1) net negative impact on underwriting result and (2) redeemable noncontrolling interest, both before consideration of any related income tax benefit (expense).
Our estimates of net negative impact are based on a review of our potential exposures, preliminary discussions with certain counterparties and actuarial modeling techniques. Our actual net negative impact, both individually and in the aggregate, may vary from these estimates, perhaps materially. Changes in these estimates will be recorded in the period in which they occur.
Meaningful uncertainty remains regarding the estimates and the nature and extent of the losses from these catastrophe events, driven by the magnitude and recent nature of each event, the geographic areas impacted by the events, relatively limited claims data received to date, the contingent nature of business interruption and other exposures, potential uncertainties relating to reinsurance recoveries and other factors inherent in loss estimation, among other things.

Property Gross Premiums Written
In the first quarter of 2024, our Property segment gross premiums written increased by $585.7 million, or 44.9%, to $1.9 billion, compared to the first quarter of 2023.
Gross premiums written in the catastrophe class of business were $1.3 billion in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $412.5 million, or 44.4%, compared to the first quarter of 2023. This increase was principally driven by the renewal of business acquired in the Validus Acquisition, in conjunction with the retention of legacy lines, at the January 1, 2024 renewal.
Gross premiums written in the other property class of business were $548.7 million in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $173.1 million, or 46.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2023. The increase in gross premiums written in the other property class of business was principally due to the renewal of business acquired in the Validus Acquisition, in conjunction with the retention of legacy lines, and growth in our catastrophe exposed quota share programs owing to continued attractive market conditions.

Property Ceded Premiums Written
Three months ended March 31,20242023Change
(in thousands)
Ceded premiums written $492,263 $284,370 $207,893 
Due to the potential volatility of the reinsurance contracts which we sell, we purchase reinsurance to reduce our exposure to large losses and to help manage our risk portfolio. To the extent that appropriately priced coverage is available, we anticipate continued use of retrocessional reinsurance to reduce the impact of large losses on our financial results and to manage our portfolio of risk; however, the buying of ceded reinsurance in our Property segment is based on market opportunities and is not based on placing a specific reinsurance program each year. In addition, we may utilize insurance-linked securities for purchases of retrocessional reinsurance if we find the pricing and terms of such coverages attractive.
Ceded premiums written in our Property segment were $492.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $207.9 million, or 73.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2023, reflecting an increase in ceded purchases as part of the Company’s gross-to-net strategy.

(in thousands)
Net premiums written$1,397,618 $1,019,829 $377,789 
Net premiums written in our Property segment were $1.4 billion in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $377.8 million, or 37.0%, compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily driven by the renewal of business acquired in the Validus Acquisition, in conjunction with the retention of legacy lines, at the January 1, 2024 renewal, across both the catastrophe and other property classes of business.
Property Underwriting Results
Our Property segment generated underwriting income of $534.4 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $298.7 million in the first quarter of 2023. In the first quarter of 2024, our Property segment generated a net claims and claim expense ratio of 16.5%, an underwriting expense ratio of 26.4% and a combined ratio of 42.9%, compared to 27.3%, 29.3% and 56.6%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2023.
Impacting the underwriting result and combined ratio in the first quarter of 2024 was the Baltimore Bridge Collapse, which resulted in a net negative impact on the Property segment underwriting result of $19.1 million and added 2.0 percentage points to the Property segment combined ratio, all within the other property class of business. Impacting the underwriting result and combined ratio in the first quarter of 2023 were the Q1 2023 Large Loss Events, which resulted in a net negative impact on the Property segment underwriting result of $79.1 million and added 11.8 percentage points to the Property segment combined ratio, reflecting impacts in both the catastrophe and other property classes of business.
The net claims and claim expense ratio in the first quarter of 2024 of 16.5% is comprised of a current accident year net claims and claim expense ratio of 26.6% and 10.1 percentage points of net favorable development of prior accident years. In comparison, the first quarter of 2023 had a net claims and claim expense ratio of 27.3%, comprised of a current accident year net claims and claim expense ratio of 39.2% and 11.9 percentage points of net favorable development of prior accident years. The decrease of 12.6 percentage points in the current accident year net claims and claim expense ratio is primarily as a result of a lower impact from the Baltimore Bridge Collapse , which contributed 2.0 percentage points to the current accident year net claims and claim expense ratio in the first quarter of 2024, compared to the Q1 2023 Large Loss Events, which contributed 11.7 percentage points in the first quarter of 2023.
See “Note 6. Reserve for Claims and Claim Expenses” in our “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information related to the prior year development of net claims and claim expenses.
62


The underwriting expense ratio decreased 2.9 percentage points, largely driven by an increase in net earned premiums as well as continued relative growth in the catastrophe class of business, which has a lower acquisition expense ratio than the other property class of business, partially offset by the increase in acquisition expenses from purchase accounting adjustments relating to the Validus Acquisition.

Casualty and Specialty Gross Premiums Written
In the first quarter of 2024, our Casualty and Specialty segment gross premiums increased by $614.7 million, or 41.4%, to $2.1 billion, compared to the first quarter of 2023. This increase was principally due to the renewal of Validus business, in conjunction with the retention of legacy lines. In particular, the other specialty line of business grew by $392.4 million compared to the first quarter of 2023.
Our relative mix of business between proportional business and excess of loss business has fluctuated in the past and will likely continue to do so in the future. Proportional business, which represents the majority of our Casualty and Specialty segment business, typically has a higher expense ratio and tends to be exposed to more attritional and frequent losses, while being subject to less expected severity compared to traditional excess of loss business.

Casualty and Specialty Ceded Premiums Written
Three months ended March 31,20242023Change
(in thousands)
Ceded premiums written$298,848 $242,188 $56,660 
We purchase reinsurance to reduce our exposure to large losses and to help manage our risk portfolio. To the extent that appropriately priced coverage is available, we anticipate continued use of retrocessional reinsurance to reduce the impact of large losses on our financial results and to manage our portfolio of risk. As in our Property segment, the buying of ceded reinsurance in our Casualty and Specialty segment is based on market opportunities and is not based on placing a specific reinsurance program each year.
Ceded premiums written in our Casualty and Specialty segment increased by $56.7 million, to $298.8 million, in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $242.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, driven by the increase in gross premiums written subject to our retrocessional reinsurance programs, and partially offset by a decrease in amount of quota share retrocessional coverage purchased.

(in thousands)
Net premiums written$1,801,955 $1,243,874 $558,081 
Net premiums written in our Casualty and Specialty segment increased by $558.1 million, or 44.9%, to $1.8 billion, in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $1.2 billion in the first quarter of 2023, consistent with the changes in gross premiums written and quota share retrocessional coverage purchased as discussed above.
Casualty and Specialty Underwriting Results
Our Casualty and Specialty segment generated underwriting income of $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $70.9 million in the first quarter of 2023. In the first quarter of 2024, our Casualty and Specialty segment generated a net claims and claim expense ratio of 67.1%, an underwriting expense ratio of 32.5% and a combined ratio of 99.6%, compared to 61.8%, 31.1% and 92.9%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2023.
The increase in the Casualty and Specialty segment combined ratio in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by the increase of 5.3 percentage points in the net claims and claims expense ratio, mainly as a result of losses related to the Baltimore Bridge Collapse, which contributed approximately 4.2 percentage points to the current accident year net claims and claim expense ratio. In addition, the impact of purchase accounting adjustments relating to the Validus Acquisition added 2.5 percentage points to the combined ratio.
The underwriting expense ratio increased 1.4 percentage points, consisting of a 0.8 percentage point increase in the operating expense ratio due to a reduction in the benefit from override fees from a decrease in retrocessional reinsurance coverage purchased, and a 0.6 percentage point increase in the acquisition expense ratio, driven by the impact of purchase accounting adjustments related to the Validus Acquisition.

The table above shows total fee income earned through third-party capital management activities, including various joint ventures, managed funds and certain structured retrocession agreements to which we are a party. Performance fees are based on the performance of the individual vehicles or products, and may be zero or negative in a particular period if, for example, large losses occur, which can potentially result in no performance fees or the reversal of previously accrued performance fees. Joint ventures include DaVinci, Top Layer, Vermeer, and Fontana. Managed funds includes Upsilon Fund and Medici, as well as fee income earned by AlphaCat Managers, which was acquired as part of the Validus Acquisition. Structured reinsurance products and other includes certain reinsurance contracts and certain other vehicles through which we transfer risk to third-party capital.
In the first quarter of 2024, total fee income earned through third-party capital management activities increased $38.8 million, to $83.6 million, compared to $44.8 million in the first quarter of 2023, due to higher management and performance fee income in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023. Management fee income increased $15.1 million compared to the first quarter of 2023, driven by increased capital managed at DaVinci, Fontana and Medici, as well as the addition of fees earned by AlphaCat Managers. Performance fee income increased $23.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2023, driven by current underwriting year results and favorable development on prior year events, primarily in DaVinci.
The fees earned through third-party capital management activities are principally recorded through redeemable noncontrolling interest, or as an increase to underwriting income through a decrease in operational expenses or acquisition expenses. Below is a summary of the impact of fee income on the applicable financial statement line items.

(1)Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investment-related derivatives includes fixed maturity investments related derivatives (interest rate futures, interest rate swaps, and credit default swaps), equity investments related derivatives (equity futures) and commodity investments related derivatives (commodity futures and commodity options). See “Note 13. Derivative Instruments” in our “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information.
We structure our investment portfolio to emphasize the preservation of capital and the availability of liquidity to meet our claims obligations, to be well diversified across market sectors, and to generate relatively attractive returns on a risk-adjusted basis over time. A large majority of our investments are invested in the fixed income markets and, therefore, our realized and unrealized holding gains and losses on investments are highly correlated to fluctuations in interest rates. As interest rates decline, we will tend to have realized and unrealized gains from our investment portfolio, and as interest rates rise, we will tend to have realized and unrealized losses from our investment portfolio.
Net realized and unrealized losses on investments were $213.7 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to net realized and unrealized gains of $279.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. Principally impacting our net realized and unrealized losses on investments in the first quarter of 2024 were:
net realized and unrealized losses on fixed maturity investments trading of $202.2 million in the first quarter of 2024 driven by interest rate increases in the current quarter, compared to net realized and unrealized gains of $207.3 million in the first quarter of 2023 due to decreases in interest rates during the comparative period; and
net realized and unrealized losses on investment-related derivatives of $57.8 million, compared to net realized and unrealized gains of $12.2 million in the first quarter of 2023. Current quarter losses were primarily driven by long interest rate future positions being negatively impacted by interest rate increases, while in the first quarter of 2023 long interest rate future positions benefited from declining interest rates.

Net foreign exchange gains (losses)$(35,683)$(14,503)$(21,180)
In the first quarter of 2024, net foreign exchange losses were $35.7 million compared to $14.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. The net foreign exchange losses in the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 were primarily driven by losses attributable to third-party investors in Medici which are allocated through net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest.
Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. We routinely write a portion of our business in currencies other than U.S. dollars and invest a portion of our cash and investment portfolio in those currencies. We are primarily impacted by foreign currency exposures associated with our underwriting operations and our investment portfolio, and may, from time to time, enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts to minimize the effect of fluctuating foreign currencies on the value of non-U.S. dollar denominated assets and liabilities.
Refer to “Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for additional information related to our exposure to foreign currency risk and “Note 13. Derivative Instruments” in our “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information related to foreign currency forward and option contracts we have entered into.

Other4,412 (101)4,513 
Total equity in earnings (losses) of other ventures$14,127 $9,530 $4,597 
Equity in earnings of other ventures represents our pro-rata share of the net income from our investments in the Tower Hill Companies, Top Layer, and our equity investments in a select group of insurance and insurance-related companies, which are included in Other. Except for Top Layer, which is recorded on a current quarter basis, equity in earnings of other ventures is recorded one quarter in arrears. The carrying value of these investments on our consolidated balance sheets, individually or in the aggregate, may differ from the realized value we may ultimately attain, perhaps significantly so.
Earnings from our investments in other ventures were $14.1 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $9.5 million in the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $4.6 million. The increase was principally driven by increased profitability of our equity investments during the first quarter of 2024, primarily driven by certain insurance and insurance-related companies included in Other, which reported higher net income in the first quarter of 2024 as compared to the first quarter of 2023 as a result of negative fair value movements within the underlying portfolios of strategic investments in the prior period.
Corporate Expenses

Corporate expenses
$39,252 $12,843 $26,409 
Corporate expenses include certain executive, director, legal and consulting expenses, costs for research and development, and other miscellaneous costs, including those associated with operating as a publicly traded company, as well as costs incurred in connection with the Validus Acquisition. From time to time, we may revise the allocation of certain expenses between corporate and operational expenses to better reflect the characteristic of the underlying expense.
68


Corporate expenses were $39.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $12.8 million in the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $26.4 million which was primarily driven by $20.3 million of expenses associated with the Validus Acquisition. We expect to incur additional costs and expenses associated with the Validus Acquisition. These additional non-recurring costs may be significant, and it is possible that our ultimate costs will exceed our current estimates.

We recognized an income tax expense of $15.4 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $28.9 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily driven by investment losses in the first quarter of 2024 compared to investment gains in the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by increased underwriting and net investment income in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023.

Our net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests was $244.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $267.4 million in the first quarter of 2023, a change of $22.6 million. This decrease was primarily due to the following:
DaVinci, which had a decrease in net income in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily resulting from an increase in net realized and unrealized losses on its investments, partially offset by an increase in underwriting income; and
Fontana, which had a net loss in the first quarter of 2024 compared to net income in the first quarter of 2023, primarily resulting from an increase in net realized and unrealized losses on its investments; partially offset by
Vermeer, which had an increase in net income in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily resulting from an increase in net investment income due to higher interest rates, as well as an increase in underwriting income;
Medici, which had an increase in net income in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily resulting from an increase in net investment income due to higher interest rates, as well as net realized and unrealized gains on catastrophe bonds, partially offset by net foreign exchange losses.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Financial Condition
As a Bermuda-domiciled holding company, RenaissanceRe has limited operations of its own. Its assets consist primarily of investments in subsidiaries and cash and securities in amounts which fluctuate over time. We therefore rely on dividends and distributions (and other statutorily permissible payments) from our subsidiaries, investment income and fee income to meet our liquidity requirements, which primarily include making principal and interest payments on our debt and dividend payments to our preference and common shareholders.
The payment of dividends by our subsidiaries is, under certain circumstances, limited by the applicable laws and regulations in the various jurisdictions in which our subsidiaries operate. In addition, insurance laws require our insurance subsidiaries to maintain certain measures of solvency and liquidity. We believe that each of our insurance subsidiaries and branches exceeded the minimum solvency, capital and surplus requirements in their applicable jurisdictions at March 31, 2024. Certain of our subsidiaries and branches are required to file FCRs with their regulators, which provide details on solvency and financial performance. Where required, these FCRs will be posted on our website. The regulations governing our and our principal operating subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends and to maintain certain measures of solvency and liquidity, and requirements to file FCRs are discussed in detail in “Part I, Item 1. Business, Regulation” and “Note 18. Statutory Requirements” in our “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Liquidity and Cash Flows
Holding Company Liquidity
RenaissanceRe’s principal uses of liquidity are: (1) common share related transactions including dividend payments to our common shareholders and common share repurchases, (2) preference share related transactions including dividend payments to our preference shareholders and preference share redemptions, (3) interest and principal payments on debt, (4) capital investments in our subsidiaries, (5) acquisition of, or investments in, new or existing companies or books of business of other companies, such as the Validus Acquisition, and (6) certain corporate and operational expenses.
We attempt to structure our organization in a way that facilitates efficient capital movements between RenaissanceRe and our operating subsidiaries and to ensure that adequate liquidity is available when required, giving consideration to applicable laws and regulations, and the domiciliary location of sources of liquidity and related obligations. For example, our internal investment structures and cash pooling arrangements among the Company and certain of our subsidiaries help to efficiently facilitate capital and liquidity movements.
In the aggregate, our principal operating subsidiaries have historically produced sufficient cash flows to meet their expected claims payments and operational expenses and to provide dividend payments to us. In addition, our subsidiaries maintain a concentration of investments in high quality liquid securities, which management believes will provide additional liquidity for extraordinary claims payments should the need arise. However, in some circumstances, RenaissanceRe may determine it is necessary or advisable to contribute capital to our subsidiaries, or may be contractually required to contribute capital to our joint ventures or managed funds. For example, in 2023, RenaissanceRe contributed capital to RenaissanceRe Specialty U.S. to support growth in premiums. In addition, from time to time we invest in new managed joint ventures or managed funds, increase our investments in certain of our managed joint ventures or managed funds and contribute cash to investment subsidiaries, such as the launch of Fontana in 2022, an innovative joint venture dedicated to writing Casualty and Specialty risks. In certain instances, we may be required to make capital contributions to our subsidiaries or joint ventures or managed funds, for example, we have net worth maintenance agreements with certain operating subsidiaries, and Renaissance Reinsurance is obligated to make a mandatory capital contribution of up to $50.0 million in the event that a loss reduces Top Layer’s capital below a specified level.
70


Sources of Liquidity
Historically, cash receipts from operations, consisting primarily of premiums, investment income and fee income, have provided sufficient funds to pay the losses and operational expenses incurred by our subsidiaries and to fund dividends and distributions to RenaissanceRe. Other potential sources of liquidity include borrowings under our credit facilities and issuances of securities.
The premiums received by our operating subsidiaries are generally received months or even years before losses are paid under the policies related to such premiums. Premiums and acquisition expenses generally are received within the first two years of inception of a contract, while operational expenses are generally paid within a year of being incurred. It generally takes much longer for net claims and claims expenses incurred to be reported and ultimately settled, requiring the establishment of reserves for claims and claim expenses and losses recoverable. Therefore, the amount of net claims paid in any one year is not necessarily related to the amount of net claims and claims expenses incurred in that year, as reported in the consolidated statement of operations.
We expect that our liquidity needs for the next 12 months will be met by our cash receipts from operations. However, as a result of a combination of market conditions, turnover of our investment portfolios and changes in investment yields, and the nature of our business where a large portion of the coverages we provide can produce losses of high severity and low frequency, future cash flows from operating activities cannot be accurately predicted and may fluctuate significantly between individual quarters and years. In addition, due to the magnitude and complexity of certain large loss events, meaningful uncertainty remains regarding losses from these events and our actual ultimate net losses from these events may vary materially from preliminary estimates, which would impact our cash flows from operations.
Our “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act allows for the public offering of various types of securities, including common shares, preference shares and debt securities, which provides a source of liquidity. Because we are a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined by the rules promulgated under the Securities Act, we are also eligible to file additional automatically effective registration statements on Form S-3 in the future for the potential offering and sale of additional debt and equity securities.
From time to time, we raise capital through public offerings pursuant to our registration statements. For example, in 2023, we completed an offering of common shares and an issuance of senior notes, for total net proceeds of approximately $2.1 billion to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Validus Acquisition, to pay related costs and expenses, and for general corporate purposes.

71


Credit Facilities, Trusts and Other Collateral Arrangements
We also maintain various other arrangements that allow us to access liquidity and satisfy collateral requirements, including revolving credit facilities, letter of credit facilities, and regulatory trusts, as well as other types of trust and collateral arrangements. Regulatory and other requirements to post collateral to support our reinsurance obligations could impact our liquidity. For example, many jurisdictions in the U.S. do not permit insurance companies to take credit for reinsurance obtained from unlicensed or non-admitted insurers on their statutory financial statements unless security is posted, so our contracts generally require us to post a letter of credit or provide other security (such as through a multi-beneficiary reinsurance trust). However, certain of our subsidiaries qualify as certified reinsurers or reciprocal reinsurers in one or more U.S. states, which has, and may continue to, reduce the amount of collateral that we are required to post. In addition, if we were to fail to comply with certain covenants in our debt agreements, we may have to pledge additional collateral.
Letter of Credit and Revolving Credit Facilities
We and certain of our subsidiaries, joint ventures, and managed funds maintain secured and unsecured revolving credit facilities and letter of credit facilities that provide liquidity and allow us to satisfy certain collateral requirements.

Cash flows provided by operating activities.
Cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $683.5 million, compared to $435.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were primarily the result of certain adjustments to reconcile our net income of $618.5 million to net cash provided by operating activities, including:
an increase in unearned premiums of $1.1 billion due to gross premiums written across both our Property and Casualty and Specialty segments;
a decrease in reinsurance recoverable of $350.6 million due to the decrease in recoverables associated with weather related large losses from 2020 through 2022;
an increase in reinsurance balances payable of $167.7 million, principally driven by the timing of payments related to underwriting activity; and
net realized and unrealized losses on investments of $155.8 million, primarily driven by interest rate increases; partially offset by
an increase in premiums receivable of $1.2 billion due to the timing of receipts and an increase in our gross premiums written; and
an increase in prepaid reinsurance premiums of $358.1 million due to the January 1, 2024 renewal of our ceded book, which drove growth in our ceded premiums written and unearned ceded premiums.
Cash flows used in investing activities.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, our cash flows used in investing activities were $304.5 million, principally reflecting net purchases of fixed maturity investments trading of $384.7 million and short term investments of $13.9 million, partially offset by cash flows from net sales of other investments of $94.9 million. The net purchases of fixed maturity investments trading and short term investments was primarily funded by cash flows provided by operating activities, as described above.
Cash flows used in financing activities.
Our cash flows used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $644.6 million, and were principally the result of:
net outflows of $518.9 million primarily related to net third-party redeemable noncontrolling interest share transactions in DaVinci, Medici and Vermeer; and
repayment of debt of $75.0 million related to the Medici Revolving Credit Facility.

Cash flows provided by operating activities.
Cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $435.7 million, compared to $168.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were primarily the result of certain adjustments to reconcile our net income of $840.3 million to net cash provided by operating activities, including:
an increase in unearned premiums of $691.5 million due to the growth in gross premiums written across both our Property and Casualty and Specialty segments;
an increase in reserve for claims and claim expenses of $104.3 million primarily resulting from an increase in reserves within our Casualty and Specialty segment largely driven by additional attritional reserves as a result of the application of our reserving loss ratios to the earned premium in the three months ended March 31, 2023, partially offset by a decrease in reserves in our Property segment due to prior year favorable development and paid losses during the three months ended March 31, 2023;
an increase in reinsurance balances payable of $61.4 million principally driven by the issuance of non-voting preference shares to investors in Upsilon RFO, which are accounted for as prospective reinsurance and included in reinsurance balances payable on our consolidated balance sheet. See “Note 9. Variable Interest Entities” in our “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information related to Upsilon RFO’s non-voting preference shares; partially offset by
an increase in premiums receivable of $794.2 million due to the timing of receipts and increase in our gross premiums written;
net realized and unrealized gains on investments of $267.3 million primarily driven by unrealized mark-to-market gains resulting from the decrease in interest rates; and
an increase of $109.4 million in our prepaid reinsurance premiums due to the January 1, 2023 renewal of our ceded book, which drove growth in both our ceded premiums written and unearned ceded premiums.
Cash flows used in investing activities.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, our cash flows used in investing activities were $684.7 million, principally reflecting net purchases of fixed maturity investments trading of $139.5 million, short term investments of $480.4 million, and other investments of $159.5 million, partially offset by cash flows from net sales of equity investments trading of $104.1 million. The net purchases of fixed maturity investments trading was primarily funded by cash flows provided by operating activities, as described above, whereas the net purchase of other investments during the three months ended March 31, 2023, was primarily driven by an increased allocation to catastrophe bonds and fund investments.
Cash flows provided by financing activities.
Our cash flows provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $116.3 million, and were principally the result of:
net inflows of $190.6 million primarily related to net third-party redeemable noncontrolling interest share transactions in Medici and DaVinci; partially offset by
repayment of debt of $30.0 million related to the Medici Revolving Credit Facility; and
dividends paid on our common and preference shares of $16.6 million and $9.0 million, respectively.

Capital Resources
We monitor our capital adequacy on a regular basis and seek to adjust our capital according to the needs of our business. In particular, we require capital sufficient to meet or exceed the capital adequacy ratios established by rating agencies for maintenance of appropriate financial strength ratings, the capital adequacy tests performed by regulatory authorities and the capital requirements under our credit facilities. From time to time, rating agencies may make changes in their capital models and rating methodologies, which could increase the amount of capital required to support our ratings. We may seek to raise additional capital or return capital to our shareholders through common share repurchases and cash dividends (or a combination of such methods). In the normal course of our operations, we may from time to time evaluate additional share or debt issuances given prevailing market conditions and capital management strategies, including for our operating subsidiaries, joint ventures and managed funds. In addition, as noted above, we enter into agreements with financial institutions to obtain letter of credit facilities for the benefit of our operating subsidiaries and certain of our joint ventures and managed funds in their reinsurance and insurance business.

(1)RenaissanceRe owns a noncontrolling economic interest in its joint venture DaVinci. Because RenaissanceRe controls a majority of DaVinci’s issued voting shares, the consolidated financial statements of DaVinci are included in the consolidated financial statements of RenaissanceRe. However, RenaissanceRe does not guarantee or provide credit support for DaVinci and RenaissanceRe’s financial exposure to DaVinci is limited to its investment in DaVinci’s shares and counterparty credit risk arising from reinsurance transactions.
(2)RenaissanceRe owns a noncontrolling economic interest in Medici. Because RenaissanceRe controls all of Medici’s issued voting shares, the financial statements of Medici are included in RenaissanceRe’s consolidated financial statements. However, RenaissanceRe does not guarantee or provide credit support for Medici, and RenaissanceRe’s financial exposure to Medici is limited to its investment in Medici’s shares and counterparty credit risk arising from reinsurance transactions. At March 31, 2024, no amounts were issued or drawn under this facility.
Our shareholders’ equity attributable to RenaissanceRe increased $337.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 principally as a result of:
our comprehensive income attributable to RenaissanceRe of $374.1 million; partially offset by
$20.5 million and $8.8 million of dividends on our common and preference shares, respectively.
Our total debt decreased by $74.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 principally resulting from the repayment of $75.0 million that was previously drawn under the Medici Revolving Credit Facility.

Reserve for Claims and Claim Expenses
We believe the most significant accounting judgment made by management is our estimate of claims and claim expense reserves. Claims and claim expense reserves represent estimates, including actuarial and statistical projections at a given point in time, of the ultimate settlement and administration costs for unpaid claims and claim expenses arising from the insurance and reinsurance contracts we sell. Our actual net claims and claim expenses paid will differ, perhaps materially, from the estimates reflected in our financial statements, which may adversely impact our financial condition, liquidity and capital resources.
Refer to “Note 6. Reserve for Claims and Claim Expenses” included herein and “Note 8. Reserve for Claims and Claim Expenses” in our “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for more information on the risks we insure and reinsure, the reserving techniques, assumptions and processes we follow to estimate our claims and claim expense reserves, prior year development of the reserve for claims and claim expenses, analysis of our incurred and paid claims development and claims duration information for each of our Property and Casualty and Specialty segments. In addition, refer to “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Summary of Critical Accounting Estimates, Claims and Claim Expense Reserves” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for more information on the reserving techniques, assumptions and processes we follow to estimate our claims and claim expense reserves, our current estimates versus our initial estimates of our claims reserves, and sensitivity analysis for each of our Property and Casualty and Specialty segments.

We structure our investment portfolio to emphasize the preservation of capital and the availability of liquidity to meet our claims obligations, to be well diversified across market sectors, and to generate relatively attractive returns on a risk-adjusted basis over time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our investments are subject to market-wide risks and fluctuations, as well as to risks inherent in particular securities. For additional information regarding our investments and the fair value measurement of our investments refer to “Note 3. Investments” and “Note 4. Fair Value Measurements” in our “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.”
As the reinsurance coverages we sell include substantial protection for damages resulting from natural and man-made catastrophes, as well as for potentially large casualty and specialty exposures, we expect, from time to time, to become liable for substantial claim payments on short notice. Accordingly, our investment portfolio as a whole is structured to seek to preserve capital and provide a high level of liquidity, which means that the large majority of our investments are highly rated fixed income securities, including U.S. treasuries, agencies, highly rated sovereign and supranational securities, high-grade corporate securities and mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. We also have an allocation to publicly traded equities reflected on our consolidated balance sheet as equity investments and an allocation to other investments (including catastrophe bonds, fund investments, term loans and direct private equity investments).

We account for our other investments at fair value in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments. The fair value of our fund investments, which include private equity funds, private credit funds and hedge funds, is recorded on our consolidated balance sheet in other investments, and is generally established on the basis of the net asset value per share (or its equivalent), determined by the managers of these investments in accordance with the applicable governing documents. Many of our fund investments are subject to restrictions on redemptions and sales which limit our ability to liquidate these investments in the short term.
Our fund managers and their fund administrators are generally unable to provide final fund valuations as of our current reporting date. We typically experience a reporting lag to receive a final net asset value report of one month for our hedge funds and three months for both private equity funds and private credit funds, although we have occasionally experienced delays of up to six months, particularly at year end. In circumstances where there is a reporting lag, we estimate the fair value of these funds by starting with the prior month or quarter-end fund valuation, adjusting these valuations for actual capital calls, redemptions or distributions, as well as the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and then estimating the return for the current period. This principally includes using preliminary estimates reported to us by our fund managers where available, and estimating returns based on the performance of broad market indices, or other valuation methods. Actual final fund valuations may differ, perhaps materially, from our estimates and these differences are recorded in our consolidated statement of operations in the period in which they are reported to us as a change in estimate. Due to the lag in reporting discussed above, we recorded a net loss of $12.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 ($1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023), representing the difference between our estimate recorded at year end and the actual amount reported in the final net asset values provided by our fund managers in the current period.
Our estimate of the fair value of catastrophe bonds is based on quoted market prices, or when such prices are not available, by reference to broker or underwriter bid indications. Refer to “Note 4. Fair Value Measurements” in our “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding the fair value measurement of our investments.
We have committed capital to direct private equity investments, fund investments, term loans and investments in other ventures of $3.6 billion, of which $2.0 billion has been contributed at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $3.6 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively). Our remaining commitments to these investments at March 31, 2024 totaled $1.6 billion (December 31, 2023 - $1.6 billion). In the future, we may enter into additional commitments in respect of these investments or individual portfolio company investment opportunities.

Ratings
Financial strength ratings are important to the competitive position of reinsurance and insurance companies. We have received high financial strength ratings from A.M. Best, S&P, Moody’s and Fitch. These ratings represent independent opinions of an insurer’s financial strength, operating performance and ability to meet policyholder obligations, and are not an evaluation directed toward the protection of investors or a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any of our securities. Certain of our entities and the senior notes and preference shares issued by them also have issuer credit ratings. Rating organizations continually review the financial positions of our principal operating subsidiaries and joint ventures and ratings may be revised or revoked by the agencies which issue them. Additionally, rating organizations may change their rating methodology, which could have a material impact on our financial strength ratings.
In addition, S&P and A.M. Best assess companies’ ERM practices, which is an opinion on the many critical dimensions of risk that determine overall creditworthiness. RenaissanceRe has been assigned an ERM score of “Very Strong” from each of these agencies, which is the highest ERM score assigned.

CURRENT OUTLOOK
Over the last 10 years, we have made key strategic decisions to build the capabilities and scale that we believe will allow us to generate superior returns in an evolving marketplace. We have diversified our sources of capital through various owned and managed balance sheets as well as equity, debt and insurance-linked securities markets. We believe that the prior planning initiatives we implemented provide the flexibility to manage large loss events and efficiently distribute capital across balance sheets. We are unique among our peers in that we have both owned and managed, and rated and fronted, vehicles across the risks that we write. This has afforded us significant flexibility to react when the world changes.
In 2023, we accomplished several strategic milestones, including (i) achieving a step change in reinsurance pricing, and (ii) completing the Validus Acquisition, which will help us accelerate our growth in a favorable market. In 2024, our focus is on execution in order to realize the benefits of the strategic successes we accomplished in 2023.
Validus Acquisition
On November 1, 2023, we completed the Validus Acquisition, accelerating our strategy at a critical juncture in the reinsurance cycle. The Validus Acquisition has several significant strategic benefits for us and advances our position as a global property and casualty reinsurer, providing additional scale and diversification, and increasing our importance with customers and brokers. Through the Validus Acquisition, we gained access to a large book of attractive reinsurance business that is closely aligned with our existing business mix. The Validus Acquisition was immediately accretive to our shareholders across our three drivers of profit.
We have been focusing our efforts on the integration of Validus, including employees and systems, and achieving synergies without disrupting customer relationships. We believe that we have been making strong progress towards these goals, with capital fully deployed on day one, and integration into our risk management system soon afterwards, diminishing execution risk. The first quarter of 2024 was the first full quarter reflecting the impact of the Validus Acquisition, and it was a significant driver of our results of operations.
Reinsurance Market Trends and Developments
Over the course of 2023, we saw a shift in the reinsurance market environment that we think inured to our benefit. We believe we have created significant opportunities to source attractive risk in the lines of business that we write, and that such opportunities will result in superior returns for our shareholders. Overall, the shift in the reinsurance market environment has resulted in an increase in rates across certain lines of business.
At the January 1, 2024 renewals, our objective was to retain our legacy lines while renewing the Validus business that we chose to keep. Providing consistency to customers and brokers across market cycles is a critical component of our value proposition, and when coupled with our position as the incumbent on many lines of business across the RenaissanceRe and Validus portfolios, contributed to our successful January 1 renewals.
The January 1 renewals should benefit many of our stakeholders: our customers benefit from access to our highly rated and well capitalized balance sheets; our brokers benefit from access to an expanded and more influential market; our capital partners benefit from increased access to desirable risk; and our shareholders benefit from improvements to each of our three drivers of profit. We think that the momentum that we witnessed in 2023 will persist into 2024.
We believe that our understanding of volatility places us in a preferred position to accept risk, and we continue to see strong opportunities for growth across our portfolio. We have a strategic commitment to reinsurance that we think enhances our value proposition to customers because our reinsurance participation is consistent and broad, and our focus on reinsurance minimizes potential channel conflict with our customers. This commitment was only reinforced by the Validus Acquisition.
We are uniquely positioned to write a variety of risks, leveraging the enhancements we have made over the last several years to our risk and capital management technology and underwriting expertise to cover additional lines of business. In particular, we have invested heavily to understand the influence of climate change on the weather and its impact on the risks that we take. We believe that the RenaissanceRe Risk
84


Sciences team gives us an advantage in properly reflecting the evolving phenomenon of climate change in our models as compared to commercially available models.
Many are forecasting a particularly active hurricane season this year, largely focused on the impact of elevated sea surface temperatures and the El Niño-Southern Oscillation cycle. However, we believe that these are just two important variables in a complex system that can be affected by a number of different inputs. Our scientists and underwriters have consistently adjusted our global views of risk to consider our present and future expectations of hazard and loss drivers from all sources including, but not limited to climate change, inflation and other factors.
Our strategy focuses on operating as an integrated system of three competitive advantages: superior risk selection, superior customer relationships and superior capital management. We leverage our strengths in risk selection and capital management to build portfolios designed to be resilient against a spectrum of tail-risk scenarios, including elevated hurricane seasons. This allows us to price our products accordingly and to maintain our important position as a consistent incumbent for our customers.
We plan to continue to seek to take advantage of additional available opportunities and think that the strategic decisions we have made in prior periods have laid the foundation for these initiatives. Our clients value our ability to be a long-term partner who brings access to multiple forms of capital and innovative, large-scale solutions.
General Economic Conditions
We think that the stresses in the global economy will continue and that this may result in increased market volatility. Global events and geopolitical instability have contributed to widespread economic inflation. We consider the anticipated effects of inflation, including social, economic, and event-driven, in our loss models, on our investment portfolio, and generally in the running of our business, and actively monitor trends in these areas.
Many central banks have been raising interest rates, which could act as a countervailing force against some inflationary pressures. The effects of interest rate trends on our reinsurance and insurance business could be magnified for longer-tail business lines that are more inflation-sensitive, particularly in our Casualty and Specialty segment, and in our other property class of business within our Property segment.
The risk of a global recession is a continuing concern. However, we think that our business model is well positioned to be less sensitive to an inflationary or recessionary environment. Notwithstanding the many uncertainties and challenges that lie ahead, we believe that our track record of responding to industry events, differentiated risk management and client service capabilities, coupled with access to diverse sources of both capital and risk position us favorably in the current environment.
Tax Updates
On December 27, 2023, the Government of Bermuda enacted the Corporate Income Tax Act 2023, which will apply a 15% corporate income tax to certain Bermuda businesses in fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. The act includes a provision referred to as the economic transition adjustment, which is intended to provide a fair and equitable transition into the tax regime, and results in a deferred tax benefit for the Company. Pursuant to this legislation, the Company recorded a net deferred tax asset in the fourth quarter of 2023, expected to be utilized predominantly over a 10-year period. The Company expects to incur and pay increased taxes in Bermuda beginning in 2025. We believe that the flexible global operating model that we have utilized will continue to prove resilient.
Three Drivers of Profit
We have built a strong foundation across all three drivers of profit, and we had strong overall performance in the first quarter of 2024, reflecting solid contributions from each of our three drivers of profit. This performance was a reflection of our strategy of generating diversified earnings streams for our business across underwriting income, fee income and investment income. Having three distinct sources of income makes us more resilient to catastrophe activity, and should reward our shareholders with superior returns.
Underwriting Income
Through disciplined underwriting, we aim to manage the cycle and allocate our capital to the business that will generate the best returns. Over the course of 2023, we were focused on managing the cycle to shape
85


our underwriting portfolio to favor attractive lines. We believe that we have constructed a large and profitable underwriting portfolio that was bolstered by our ability to participate broadly across our clients’ portfolios.
In 2024, we are focused on continuing to deliver the combined RenaissanceRe and Validus portfolio, moving from the successful January 1 renewals where we retained the combined portfolio at attractive rates and terms and conditions, to the upcoming mid-year renewals.
Property
With the global impact of climate change, we expect the frequency and severity of perils such as drought, flood, rain, hail and wildfire to continue at the elevated levels we have seen in recent years. We believe that the underwriting changes that we recently made, including requiring higher rates and attachment points, have positioned us so that this catastrophe activity will have a smaller impact on our financial results than it otherwise may have.
At the January 1 and April 1 renewals, we improved on what we think was an already strong Property segment portfolio. Rates in the property catastrophe market remained strong and the markets remained disciplined. The other property market continued to experience rate increases, and we will continue to monitor rate adequacy in this area for potential growth opportunities.
We remain focused on delivering the combined Validus and RenaissanceRe portfolio at the upcoming mid-year renewals. We have seen additional demand in the property reinsurance market, particularly in Florida. Although we believe that the Florida market has improved, we remain cautious.
Casualty and Specialty
The January 1 renewal in our Casualty and Specialty segment was also successful. The trends we witnessed at the January 1 renewal for the casualty and specialty market have generally continued. The Validus Acquisition provided us with significant access to additional casualty and specialty business and provided us with an even more influential position in the market. We continued to manage the cycle, focusing growth in the specialty and general casualty lines of business, while reducing in the professional liability line of business. The shift in premiums in the quarter displays our agility in maintaining underwriting discipline.
In March 2024, the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapsed following a collision with a cargo ship. We have not seen significant additional reinsurance capacity flow into the specialty market following this event, and expect that, along with recent aviation incidents, that it will further drive specialty market dislocation and an attractive rate environment.
Our prior work building strong relationships with key customers has allowed us to gain superior access to desirable business. We have focused our growth in attractive areas while reducing on deals that do not meet our return hurdles. We believe that we have a prudent reserving process for our casualty and specialty business and remain confident in our reserves.
Fee Income
We take a differentiated approach to our Capital Partners unit, with a focus on first sourcing the risks that we intend to write, and then matching it with the appropriate third-party capital. Our Capital Partners unit continues to grow into an attractive market and benefited from increased access to desirable risk as a result of the Validus Acquisition. We view this as a growing and sustainable driver of profit that we expect will continue to generate an increase in low-volatility management fee income. For the first quarter of 2024, increased fees were driven by underlying portfolio growth and strong performance.
Investment Income
We are benefiting from higher interest rates and growth in this driver of profit as a result of our proactive rotation of the portfolio into higher yielding securities as we saw historic increases in interest rates. However, we continue to maintain a relatively conservative position for our investment portfolio. The Validus Acquisition contributed a relatively large investment portfolio that should contribute to our investment income in future periods.
See the “Risk Factors” section in our Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2024, and Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional information on factors that could cause our actual results

ITEM 3.        QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are principally exposed to five types of market risk: interest rate risk; foreign currency risk; credit risk; equity price risk and commodity price risk. Our investment guidelines permit, subject to approval, investments in derivative instruments such as futures, options, foreign currency forward contracts and swap agreements, which may be used to assume risks or for hedging purposes.
There were no material changes to these market risks, as disclosed in “Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, during the three months ended March 31, 2024. See “Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for a discussion of our exposure to these risks.


ITEM 4.        CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based upon that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, at March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, which were identified in connection with our evaluation required pursuant to Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In the future, we may authorize additional purchase activities under the currently authorized share repurchase program, increase the amount authorized under the share repurchase program, or adopt additional trading plans.
