VALIC Company I is an affiliated investment company. The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company (VALIC), an affiliate of USL, serves as the investment advisor to VALIC Company I. VALIC Retirement Services Company, a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of VALIC, serves as the transfer agent and accounting services agent to VALIC Company I. SunAmerica, an affiliate of USL, serves as the administrator to each series of VALIC Company I and as the investment sub-advisor to certain series of VALIC Company I.

In addition to the sub-accounts above, a contract owner may allocate contract funds to a fixed account, which is part of USL’s General Account and not included in these financial statements. Contract owners should refer to the product prospectus for the available Funds and fixed account.

The assets of each of the sub-accounts of the Separate Account are registered in the name of USL. Under applicable insurance law, the assets and liabilities of the Separate Account are clearly identified and distinguished from USL’s other assets and liabilities. The Separate Account assets are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business USL may conduct. Net premiums from the contracts are allocated to the sub-accounts and invested in the Funds in accordance with contract owner instructions and are recorded as contract transactions in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

We are continually assessing the impact on our business, operations and investments and separate account assets of COVID-19 and the resulting ongoing economic and societal disruption. These impacts initially included a global economic contraction, disruptions in financial markets, increased market volatility and declines in certain equity and other asset prices that had negative effects on our investments, our access to liquidity, our ability to generate new sales and the costs associated with claims. Further, significant legislative and regulatory activity has occurred at both the U.S. federal and state levels, as well as globally. We cannot predict what form future legal and regulatory responses to concerns about COVID-19 and related public health issues will take, or how such responses will impact our business.

 

2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policy

The financial statements of the Separate Account have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The Separate Account is an Investment Company and follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Separate Account in the preparation of its financial statements.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment. These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. To the extent actual experience differs from assumptions used, the financial statements of the Separate Account could be materially affected.

Investments: Investments in mutual funds are valued at their closing net asset value per share as determined by the respective mutual funds, which generally value their securities at fair value. Purchases and sales of shares of the Funds are made at the net asset values of such Funds. Transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on the sales of investments are recognized at the date of sale and are determined on a first-in, first-out basis.

Dividends and capital gain distributions from the Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date and reinvested upon receipt.

Reserves for Annuity Contracts in Payout: Net assets allocated to contracts in the payout period are based on industry standard mortality tables depending on the calendar year of annuitization as well as other assumptions, including provisions for the risk of adverse deviation from assumptions.

An assumed interest rate of 3.50 percent is used in determining annuity payments except for ICAP contracts which have an assumed interest rate of 5.00 percent.

At each reporting period, the assumptions must be evaluated based on current experience, and the reserves must be adjusted accordingly. To the extent additional reserves are established due to mortality risk experience, USL makes payments to the Separate Account. If there are excess reserves remaining at the time annuity payments cease, the assets supporting those reserves are transferred from the Separate Account to the General Account. Transfers between the General Account and the Separate Account, if any, are disclosed as adjustments to net assets allocated to contracts in payout period in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets. Annuity benefit payments are recorded as payments for contract benefits or terminations in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

 

Accumulation Unit: This is the basic valuation unit used to calculate the contract owner’s interest. Such units are valued daily to reflect investment performance and the prorated daily deduction for expense charges.

Income Taxes: The operations of the Separate Account are included in the federal income tax return of USL, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code). Under the current provisions of the Code, USL does not expect to incur federal income taxes on the earnings of the Separate Account to the extent that the earnings are credited under the contracts. As a result, no charge is currently made to the Separate Account for federal income taxes. The Separate Account is not treated as a regulated investment company under the Code. USL will periodically review changes in the tax law. USL retains the right to charge for any federal income tax incurred which is applicable to the Separate Account if the law is changed.

 

3.

Fair Value Measurements

Assets recorded at fair value in the Separate Account’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities are measured and classified in a hierarchy for disclosure purposes consisting of three “levels” based on the observability of valuation inputs:

 

 

Level 1— Fair value measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that the Separate Account has the ability to access for identical assets or liabilities. Market price data generally is obtained from exchange or dealer markets. The Separate Account does not adjust the quoted price for such instruments.

 

 

Level 2— Fair value measurements based on 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, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, 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.

 

 

Level 3— Fair value measurements based on valuation techniques that use significant inputs that are unobservable. Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value positions in Level 3. The circumstances in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Therefore, the Separate Account makes certain assumptions about the inputs a hypothetical market participant would use to value that 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 is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The Separate Account assets measured at fair value as of December 31, 2022 consist of investments in registered mutual funds that generally trade daily and are measured at fair value using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, which are classified as Level 1 throughout the year. As such, no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels occurred during the year. See the Schedule of Portfolio Investments for the table presenting information about assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2022, and respective hierarchy levels.

 

4.

Expenses

Expense charges are applied against the current value of the Separate Account and are paid to USL as follows:

Separate Account Annual Charges: Deductions for the mortality and expense risk charges and distribution charges are calculated daily, at an annual rate, on the actual prior day’s net asset value of the underlying Funds comprising the sub-accounts attributable to the contract owners and are paid to USL. The mortality risk charge represents compensation to USL for the mortality risks assumed under the contract, which is the obligation to provide payments during the payout period for the life of the contract and to provide the standard death benefit. The expense risk charge represents compensation to USL for assuming the risk that the current contract administration charges will be insufficient to cover the cost of administering the contract in the future. The distribution expense charge covers all expenses associated with the distribution of the contract. These charges are included on the mortality and expense risk and administrative charges line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

The distribution charge is deducted at an annual rate of 0.15 percent of the net asset value of each portfolio and is included in the respective separate account annual charge rate.

Contract Maintenance Charge: During the accumulation phase, an annual contract maintenance charge is assessed by USL on the contract anniversary. In the event of a full surrender, a contract maintenance charge is assessed at the date of surrender and deducted from the withdrawal proceeds. The contract maintenance charge represents a reimbursement of administrative expenses incurred by USL related to the establishment and maintenance of the record keeping function for the sub-accounts. These charges are included as part of the contract maintenance charges line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

The contract maintenance charge ranges from $30 to $50 for certain contracts. No contract maintenance charge is assessed under the FSA Advisor contract.

Withdrawal Charge: A withdrawal charge is applicable to certain contract withdrawals pursuant to the contract and is payable to USL. The withdrawal charges are included as part of the payments for contract benefits or terminations line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

The maximum withdrawal charge of 5 percent is assessed on amount withdrawn in excess of free withdrawals for the ICAP II variable annuity and the maximum withdrawal charge of 6% is assessed on amounts withdrawn in excess of free withdrawal amounts for the Vista Capital Advantage variable annuity. For all other products, the maximum withdrawal charge of 9 percent is assessed on amount withdrawn in excess of free withdrawals. There are no withdrawal charges under the FSA Advisor variable annuity.

Transfer Fee: A transfer fee may be assessed on each transfer of funds in excess of the maximum transactions allowed within a contract year depending on the contract provision. The transfer fee is included as part of the payments for contract benefits or terminations line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

Depending on the contract provisions, a transfer fee of $25 ($10 in Pennsylvania and Texas) is assessed on each transfer in excess of the maximum transactions allowed for the product.

Premium Based Charge: For certain products, an up-front sales charge is applied against the gross purchase payments made on the contract. The sales charge is calculated as a percentage of the gross purchase payment invested, depending on the investment amount and the year of receipt, and is deducted from the contract value on a quarterly basis over a period of seven years. The premium based charge is paid to USL by redemption of units outstanding and included as part of the payments for contract benefits or terminations line of the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

The premium based charge ranges from 0.50 percent to 5.75 percent and is assessed on the Polaris II A-Class Platinum Series and Polaris Platinum O-Series contract.

Premium Tax Charge: Certain states charge taxes on purchase payments up to a maximum of 3.50 percent. Some states assess premium taxes at the time of purchase payments, while some other states assess premium taxes when annuity payments begin or upon surrender. There are certain states that do not assess premium taxes. If the law of the state requires premium taxes to be paid when purchase payments are made, USL will deduct the tax from such payments prior to depositing the payments into the Separate Account. Otherwise, such tax will be deducted from the account value when annuity payments begin. Premium taxes are included as part of the payments received from contract owners line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

USL currently deducts premium taxes upon annuitization; however, it reserves the right to deduct premium taxes upon receipt of a purchase payment or upon surrender of the contract.

Annuity Charge: There may be an annuity charge in the event that the contract is switched to the payout phase. Option 1 for payouts provides a life income with installments guaranteed, Option 2 provides a joint and survivor life payout, and Option 3 provides income for a specified period. No annuity charge is assessed if Option 1 or Option 2 is elected. If Option 3 is elected, an annuity charge equal to the withdrawal charge if the contract were surrendered may apply. No annuity charged will be assessed if Option 3 is elected by a beneficiary under the death benefit. The annuity charge is included as part of the payments for contract benefits or terminations line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

Capital Protector Fee: This optional feature provides a guaranteed minimum contract value at the end of an applicable waiting period. The annual fee is calculated as a percentage of the contract value minus purchase payments received after the 90th day from the date of contract issuance and deducted quarterly from the contract value during the waiting period. This optional feature is included as part of the payments for contract benefits or terminations line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

The annual fee for the Capital Protector Program ranges from 0.25 percent to 0.65 percent. This optional feature is offered under Polaris Advantage, Polaris Choice, Polaris Choice III, Polaris II, Polaris Preferred Solution, and WM Diversified Strategies III contracts.

MarketLock, Marketlock for Two, MarketLock for Life Plus, MarketLock Income Plus and MarketLock for Life: These optional features provide a guaranteed withdrawal stream by locking in market gains during an applicable evaluation period.

 

   

MarketLock, MarketLock for Two and Income Rewards

The annual fee is calculated as a percentage of the maximum anniversary value benefit base and deducted quarterly from the contract value. The maximum anniversary value benefit base is calculated as the greater of eligible purchase payments received during the first two years, adjusted for withdrawals, or the maximum anniversary date contract value occurring in the first ten contract years, adjusted for withdrawals. The annual fee is included as part of the payments for contract benefits or terminations line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

 

   

MarketLock for Life, MarketLock for Life Plus and MarketLock Income Plus

The annual fee is calculated as a percentage of the income base and deducted quarterly from the contract value. The income base is calculated as the greater of purchase payments made in the first contract year and purchase payments made in contract years 2-5, capped at 100 percent of purchase payments made in the first year plus a bonus, if eligible, or the highest anniversary date contract value less purchase payments made in years 2-5 greater than the purchase payments received in the first year. The annual fee is included as part of the payments for contract benefits or terminations line in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

(a)

Because the unit values are presented as a range of lowest to highest, based on the product grouping representing the minimum and maximum expense ratio amounts, some individual contract unit values are not within the ranges presented.

 

(b)

These amounts represent the net asset value before adjustments allocated to the contracts in payout period.

 

(c)

These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the sub-account from the Funds, net of management fees assessed by the portfolio manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that are assessed against contract owner accounts either through reductions in the unit values or the redemption of units. The recognition of investment income by the sub-account is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the Funds in which the sub-account invests. The average net assets are calculated using the net asset balances at the beginning and end of the year.

 

(d)

These amounts represent the annualized contract expenses of the sub-account, consisting of distribution, mortality and expense charges, for each period indicated. The ratios include only those expenses that result in direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to the contract owners account through the redemption of units and expenses of the Funds have been excluded. For additional information on charges and deductions, see Note 4.

 

(e)

These amounts represent the total return for the periods indicated, including changes in the value of the Funds, and expenses assessed through the reduction of unit values. These ratios do not include any expenses assessed through redemption of units. Investment options with a date notation indicate the effective date of that investment option in the variable account. The total return is calculated for each of the periods indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period. Because the total return is presented as a range of minimum and maximum values, based on the product grouping representing the minimum and maximum expense ratios, some individual contract total returns are not within the ranges presented.

 

(f)

A blank in the lowest unit value, lowest expense ratio and lowest total return columns indicates that the lowest value is the same as the highest value.

Report of Independent Auditors

To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying statutory financial statements of The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York (the “Company”), which comprise the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related statutory statements of operations, of changes in capital and surplus, and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).

Unmodified Opinion on Statutory Basis of Accounting

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York State Department of Financial Services described in Note 2.

Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

In our opinion, because of the significance of the matter discussed in the Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles section of our report, the accompanying financial statements do not present fairly, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022.

Basis for Opinions

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the financial statements are prepared by the Company on the basis of the accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York State Department of Financial Services, which is a basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

LOGO


Table of Contents

The effects on the financial statements of the variances between the statutory basis of accounting described in Note 2 and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, although not reasonably determinable, are presumed to be material.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York State Department of Financial Services. Management is also responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the financial statements are available to be issued.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with US GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with US GAAS, we:

 

   

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

   

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

   

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

   

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.

   

Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

Supplemental Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets and liabilities, investment risk interrogatories, summary investment schedule, and schedule of reinsurance disclosures (collectively referred to as the “supplemental schedules”) of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and for the year then ended are presented to comply with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ Annual Statement Instructions and Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual and for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements. The supplemental schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves and other additional procedures, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the supplemental schedules are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

THE UNITED STATES LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK

NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

 

The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York (USL or the Company), is a wholly owned subsidiary of AGC Life Insurance Company (AGC Life or the Parent), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of AIG Life Holding, Inc. (AIG Life Holding). AIG Life Holding is wholly owned by Corebridge Financial Inc. (Corebridge), which is a direct subsidiary of American International Group, Inc. (AIG). AIG is a holding company, which through its subsidiaries provides a wide range of property casualty insurance, life insurance, retirement products and other financial services to commercial and individual customers in approximately 70 countries and jurisdictions. The term “AIG” means American International Group, Inc. and not any of AIG’s consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company is a stock life insurance company domiciled and licensed under the laws of the State of New York and is subject to regulation by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). The Company is also subject to regulation by the states in which it is authorized to transact business. The Company is licensed to sell life and accident and health insurance in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The Company is also licensed in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

The Company’s fixed annuity products include single premium fixed annuities, immediate annuities and deferred income annuities. The Company’s variable annuity products include variable annuities that offer a combination of growth potential, death benefit features and income protection features. The Company’s fixed index annuities include products that provide growth potential based in part on the performance of a market index, and certain of the Company’s fixed index annuity products offer optional income protection features. The Company’s distribution channels include banks, wirehouses, broker dealers, independent marketing organizations and independent insurance agents.

The Company’s individual life insurance products are primarily term life and universal life insurance, distributed through independent marketing organizations, independent insurance agents, financial advisors and direct marketing.

The operations of the Company are influenced by many factors, including general economic conditions, financial condition of AIG, monetary and fiscal policies of the United States federal government and policies of state and other regulatory authorities. The level of sales of the Company’s insurance and financial products is influenced by many factors, including general market rates of interest, the strength, weakness and volatility of equity markets and terms and conditions of competing products. The Company is exposed to the risks normally associated with a portfolio of fixed income securities, which include interest rate, option, liquidity and credit risks. The Company controls its exposure to these risks by, among other things, closely monitoring and managing the duration and cash flows of its assets and liabilities, monitoring and limiting prepayments and extension risk in its portfolio, maintaining a large percentage of the Company’s portfolio in highly liquid securities, engaging in a disciplined process of underwriting, and reviewing and monitoring credit risk.

The Company is also exposed to market risk, policyholder behavior risk and mortality/longevity risk. Market volatility and other equity market conditions may affect the Company’s exposure to risks related to guaranteed death benefits and guaranteed living benefits on variable annuity products, and may reduce fee income on variable product assets held in separate accounts. Such guaranteed benefits are sensitive to equity and interest rate market conditions.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

 

Basis of Presentation

 

 

The financial statements of the Company are presented on the basis of accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the NYDFS. These accounting practices vary in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), as described herein.

NYDFS recognizes only statutory accounting practices (SAP) prescribed or permitted by the State of New York for determining and reporting the financial condition and results of operations of an insurance company and for determining its solvency under New York Insurance Law. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ (NAIC) Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual (NAIC SAP) has been adopted as a component of prescribed or permitted practices by the State of New York. The State of New York has the right to permit other specific practices that deviate from prescribed practices.

The Company does not employ any prescribed or permitted accounting practices that differ from the NAIC SAP.

Use of Estimates

 

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the NYDFS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the statutory financial statements and the accompanying notes. It also requires disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the statutory financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the period. The areas of significant judgments and estimates include the following:

 

application of other-than-temporary impairments (OTTI);

 

 

estimates with respect to income taxes, including recoverability of deferred tax assets (DTA);

 

 

fair value measurements of certain financial assets; and

 

 

policy reserves for life, annuity and accident and health insurance contracts, including guarantees.

These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. To the extent actual experience differs from the assumptions used, the Company’s Statutory Statements of Admitted Assets, Liabilities and Capital and Surplus, Statutory Statements of Operations and Statutory Statements of Cash Flows could be materially affected.

Significant Accounting Policies

 

 

Bonds not backed by other loans are carried at amortized cost except for those with a NAIC designation of “6” or “6*”. Bonds with a NAIC 6 designation are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value, with unrealized losses charged directly to unassigned surplus. Bonds that have not been filed and have not received a designation in over one year from the NAIC’s Investment Analysis Office (IAO) receive a “6*” designation and are carried at zero, with the unrealized loss charged directly to unassigned surplus. Bonds filed with the IAO which receive a “6*” designation may carry a value greater than zero. Securities are assigned a NAIC 5* designation if the Company certifies that (1) the documentation necessary to permit a full credit analysis does not exist, (2) the issuer or obligor is current on all contracted interest and principal payments and (3) the Company has an actual expectation of ultimate repayment of all contracted interest and principal. Securities with NAIC 5* designations are deemed to possess the credit characteristics of securities assigned a NAIC 5 designation. The discount or premium on bonds is amortized using the effective yield method.

Loan-backed and structured securities (LBaSS) include residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), asset-backed securities (ABS), pass-thru securities, lease-backed securities, equipment trust certificates, loan-backed securities issued by special purpose corporations or trusts, and securities where there is not direct recourse to the issuer. LBaSS are carried on a basis consistent with that of bonds not backed by loans. Income recognition for LBaSS is determined using the effective yield method and estimated cash flows. Prepayment assumptions for single-class and multi-class mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and ABS were obtained from an outside vendor or internal estimates. The Company uses independent pricing services and broker quotes in determining the fair value of its LBaSS. The Company uses the retrospective adjustment method to account for the effect of unscheduled payments affecting high credit quality securities, while securities with less than high credit quality

and securities for which the collection of all contractual cash flows is not probable are both accounted for using the prospective adjustment method.

Reference to “non-rated residual tranches or interests” intends to capture securitization tranches, beneficial interests, interests of structured finance investments, as well as other structures that reflect loss layers without contractual interest or principal payments. Payments to holders of these investments occur after contractual interest and principal payments have been made to other tranches or interests and are based on the remaining available funds. Although payments to holders can occur throughout an investment’s duration (and not just at maturity), such instances still reflect the residual amount permitted to be distributed after other holders have received contractual interest and principal payments.

RBC charges for LBaSS are based on the final NAIC designations, which are determined with a multi-step approach. The initial designation is used to determine the carrying value of the security. The final NAIC designation is used for reporting and affects RBC. The final NAIC designation is determined in one of three ways. NAIC designations are determined through a financial modeling process conducted by BlackRock, direct analysis via the NAIC’s IAO or other protocols prescribed by the NAIC including internal assignment of Z, 5GI or 6*. Residual tranches, as defined in Statement of Statutory Accounting Principle (SSAP) 43-Revised “Loan-Backed and Structured Securities”, are reported as NAIC 6*.

Short sale is the sale of a security which is not owned by the company at the time of sale. Short sales are normally settled by the delivery of a security borrowed by or on behalf of seller. A short sale as defined in SSAP No. 103 “Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities” is reported as a contra-asset (negative asset) initially reported at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized as unrealized gains and losses.

Redeemable preferred stocks with NAIC designations of “1” through “3” are carried at amortized cost. All other redeemable preferred stocks are stated at the lower of cost, amortized cost or fair value, with unrealized capital losses charged directly to unassigned surplus. Perpetual preferred stocks shall be valued at fair value, not to exceed any currently effective call price. Provisions made for impairment are recorded as realized capital losses when declines in fair value are determined to be other than temporary.

Unaffiliated common stocks are carried at fair value, with unrealized capital gains and losses credited or charged directly to unassigned surplus. Provisions made for impairment are recorded as realized capital losses when declines in fair value are determined to be other than temporary. For Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) capital stock, which is only redeemable at par, the fair value shall be presumed to be par, unless considered other-than-temporarily impaired.

The Company has no investments in insurance subsidiary, controlled, and affiliated (SCA) entities. Investments in non-insurance SCA entities are recorded based on the equity of the investee per audited financial statements prepared pursuant to U.S. GAAP, which is adjusted to a statutory basis of accounting, if applicable. All investments in non-insurance SCA entities for which audited U.S. GAAP financial statements are not available, are non-admitted as assets. Undistributed equity in earnings of affiliates is included in unassigned surplus as a component of unrealized capital gains or losses. Dividends received from such affiliates are recorded as investment income when declared.

Mortgage and mezzanine real estate loans are carried at unpaid principal balances less allowances for credit losses and plus or minus adjustments for the accretion or amortization of discount or premium. Interest income on performing loans is accrued as earned.

Mortgage and mezzanine real estate loans are considered impaired when collection of all amounts due under contractual terms is not probable. Impairment is measured using either i) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, ii) the loan’s observable market price, if available, or iii) the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. An allowance is typically established for the difference between the impaired value of the loan and its current carrying amount. Additional allowance is established for incurred but not specifically identified impairments, based on statistical models primarily driven by past due status, debt service coverage, loan-to-value ratio, property occupancy, profile of the borrower and of the major property tenants, and economic trends in the market where the property is located. When all or a portion of a loan is deemed uncollectible, the uncollectible portion of the carrying amount of the loan is charged off against the allowance.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments include cash on hand and amounts due from banks and highly liquid debt instruments that have original maturities of three months or less and are carried at amortized cost. Short-

term investments include interest-bearing money market funds, investment pools and other investments with original maturities within one year from the date of purchase.

Contract loans are carried at unpaid balances, which include unpaid principal plus accrued interest, including 90 days or more past due. All loan amounts in excess of the contract cash surrender value are considered non-admitted assets.

Starting in 2022 the company designated, under SSAP 86, certain foreign exchange derivatives as effective hedges of certain invested assets. Hedge accounting was not used for any derivative instruments in 2021.

Other invested assets principally consist of investments in limited partnerships and limited liability companies. Investments in these assets, except for joint ventures, partnerships and limited liability companies with a minor ownership interest, are reported using the equity method. Under SAP, such investments are generally reported based on audited U.S. GAAP equity of the investee, with subsequent adjustment to a statutory basis of accounting, if applicable.

Joint ventures, partnerships and limited liability companies in which the Company has a minor ownership interest (i.e., less than 10 percent) or lacks control, are generally recorded based on the underlying audited U.S. GAAP equity of the investee, with some prescribed exceptions. SAP allows the use of (a) the U.S. GAAP equity as set forth in the footnote reconciliation of foreign GAAP equity and income to U.S. GAAP within audited foreign GAAP financial statements or (b) the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) basis equity in audited IFRS financial statements as an acceptable basis for the valuation of minor/non-controlled investments. The audited U.S. tax basis equity may also be used in certain circumstances.

All other investments in entities for which audited U.S. GAAP financial statements, or another acceptable audited basis of accounting as described above were not available have been non-admitted as assets. Undistributed accumulated earnings of such entities are included in unassigned surplus as a component of unrealized capital gains or losses. Distributions received that are not in excess of the undistributed accumulated earnings are recognized as investment income. Impairments that are determined to be other than temporary are recognized as realized capital losses.

Securities lending and repurchase agreements: The Company has a securities lending program, which was approved by its Board of Directors and lends securities from its investment portfolio to supplement liquidity or for other uses as deemed appropriate by management. Under the program, securities are lent to financial institutions, and in return the Company receives cash as collateral equal to 102 percent of the fair value of the loaned securities. The cash collateral received is invested in short-term investments that may be sold or repledged or partially used for short-term liquidity purposes based on conservative cash flow forecasts. Securities lent by the Company under these transactions may be sold or repledged by the counterparties. The liability for cash collateral received is reported in payable for securities lending in the Statutory Statements of Admitted Assets, Liabilities and Capital and Surplus. The Company monitors the fair value of securities loaned and obtains additional collateral as necessary. At the termination of the transactions, the Company and its counterparties are obligated to return the collateral provided and the securities lent, respectively. These transactions are treated as secured financing arrangements.

In addition, the Company is a party to secured financing transactions involving securities sold under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements), in which the Company transfers securities in exchange for cash, with an agreement by the Company to repurchase the same or substantially similar securities on agreed upon dates specified in the agreements.

Investment income due and accrued is non-admitted from investment income for bonds and other invested assets when collection of interest is overdue by more than 90 days, or is uncertain, and for mortgage loans when loans are foreclosed, or delinquent in payment for greater than 90 days, or when collection of interest is uncertain.

Net realized capital gains and losses, which are determined by using the specific identification method, are reflected in income net of applicable federal income taxes and transfers to the interest maintenance reserve.

The Company regularly evaluates its investments for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) in value. The determination that a security has incurred an OTTI in value and the amount of any loss recognition requires the judgment of the Company’s management and a continual review of its investments.

For bonds, other than LBaSS, an OTTI shall be considered to have occurred if it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due under the contractual terms in effect at the acquisition date of the debt security. If it is

NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

determined an OTTI has occurred, the cost basis of bonds are written down to fair value and the amount of the write-down is recognized as a realized capital loss.

For LBaSS, a non-interest related OTTI resulting from a decline in value due to fundamental credit problems of the issuer is recognized when the projected discounted cash flows for a particular security are less than its amortized cost. When a non-interest related OTTI occurs, the LBaSS is written down to the present value of future cash flows expected to be collected. An OTTI is also deemed to have occurred if the Company intends to sell the LBaSS or does not have the intent and ability to retain the LBaSS until recovery. If the decline is interest-related, the LBaSS is written down to fair value.

In periods subsequent to the recognition of an OTTI loss, the Company generally accretes the difference between the new cost basis and the future cash flows expected to be collected, if applicable, as interest income over the remaining life of the security based on the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows.

Non-admitted assets are excluded from admitted assets and the change in the aggregate amount of such assets is reflected as a separate component of unassigned surplus. Non-admitted assets include all assets specifically designated as non-admitted and assets not designated as admitted, such as a net asset IMR, a certain portion of DTAs, prepaid expenses, electronic data processing (EDP) equipment assets, agents’ balances or other receivables over 90 days. Non-admitted assets amounted to $679 million and $588 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Interest maintenance reserve (IMR) is calculated based on methods prescribed by the NAIC and was established to prevent large fluctuations in interest-related investment gains and losses resulting from sales (net of taxes) and interest-related OTTI (net of taxes). An OTTI occurs when the Company, at the reporting date, has the intent to sell an investment or does not have the intent and ability to hold the security before recovery of the cost of the investment. For LBaSS, if the Company recognizes an interest-related OTTI, the non-interest-related OTTI is recorded to the asset valuation reserve, and the interest-related portion to IMR. Such gains and losses are deferred into the IMR and amortized into income using the grouped method over the remaining contractual lives of the securities sold.

Asset valuation reserve (AVR) is used to stabilize surplus from fluctuations in the market value of bonds, stocks, mortgage loans, real estate, limited partnerships and other investments. Changes in the AVR are recorded as direct increases or decreases in surplus.

Separate account assets and liabilities generally represent funds for which the contract holder, rather than the Company, bears the investment risk. Separate account contract holders have no claim against the assets of the general account of the Company, except for certain guaranteed products. Separate account assets are generally reported at fair value. In addition, certain products with fixed guarantees and market-value-adjusted (MVA) fixed annuity contracts in which the assets are generally carried at amortized cost are required by certain states to be carried in a separate account. The operations of the separate accounts are excluded from the Statutory Statements of Operations and Statutory Statements of Cash Flows of the Company. The Company receives fees for assuming mortality and certain expense risks. Such fees are included in separate account fees in the Statutory Statements of Operations. Reserves for variable annuity contracts are provided in accordance with the Variable Annuity Commissioners’ Annuity Reserve Valuation Method (VACARVM) under subsection 21 of the Valuation Manual (“VM-21”) for 2020 and subsequent years, and under Actuarial Guideline 43 (AG 43) for prior years. Reserves for variable universal life accounts are provided in accordance subsection 20 of the Valuation Manual (“VM-20”) for new business issued in 2020 and subsequent years, and in accordance with the Commissioners’ Reserve Valuation Method (CRVM) for policies issued prior to 2020.

Policy reserves are established according to different methods.

Life, annuity, and health reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are generally determined based on published tables using specified interest rates, mortality or morbidity assumptions, and valuation methods prescribed or permitted by statutes that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum or guaranteed policy cash values or the amounts required by the NYDFS.

Principle-based reserving (“PBR”) is designed to tailor the reserving process to more closely reflect the risks of specific products, rather than the previous prescribed approach. Reserve requirements for the companies life insurance policies issued after January 1, 2020 are contained in subsection 20 of the Valuation Manual (“VM-20”), “Requirements for Principle-Based Reserves for Life Products”, policies issued prior to that date are reserved for using the Commissioners

Reserve Valuation Method (CRVM). Under VM-20, these reserves are generally more sensitive to changes in actuarial assumptions.

The Company waives the deduction of deferred fractional premiums on the death of the life and annuity policy insured and for traditional life insurance returns any portion of the final premium for periods beyond the date of death. The Company reported additional reserves for surrender values in excess of the corresponding policy reserves.

The Company performs annual cash flow testing in accordance with the Actuarial Opinion and Memorandum Regulation to ensure adequacy of the reserves. Additional reserves are established where the results of cash flow testing under various interest rate scenarios indicate the need for such reserves or where the net premiums exceed the gross premiums on any insurance in force. Total cash flow testing reserves were $1.4 billion at December 31, 2022.

A majority of the Company’s variable annuity products are issued with a guaranteed minimum death benefit (GMDB) which provides that, upon the death of a contractholder, the contractholder’s beneficiary will receive the greater of (1) the contractholder’s account value, or (2) a GMDB that varies by product. Depending on the product, the GMDB may equal the principal invested, adjusted for withdrawals; or the greatest contract value, adjusted for withdrawals, at the specified contract anniversaries; or the principal invested, adjusted for withdrawals, accumulated at the specified rate per annum. These benefits have issue age and other restrictions to reduce mortality risk exposure. The Company bears the risk that death claims following a decline in the financial markets may exceed contract holder account balances, and that the fees collected under the contract are insufficient to cover the costs of the benefit to be provided. Death benefits on GMDB policies generally reduce on a proportional basis or on a dollar-for-dollar basis when a partial withdrawal occurs.

Reserves for GMDB benefits are included in the VACARVM reserve. Variable Annuity (“VA”) reserving requirements for 2020 and subsequent years are contained in subsection 21 of the Valuation Manual (“VM-21”), “Reserves for Variable Requirements for Principle-Based Annuities”, and replace the previous Actuarial Guideline XLVIII (“AG 43”) requirements, which also employed a principle-based approach. The Company fully applied VM-21 requirements to reserving for both new and existing VA contracts effective January 1, 2020. Prior to 2020, AG 43 required the Company to perform a stochastic valuation analysis of the total reserves held for all variable annuity contracts with GMDB. These reserves were derived by using the 70 percent Conditional Tail Expectation of the modeled reserves and were based on prudent estimate assumptions. In addition, a deterministic valuation was also performed using assumptions prescribed in AG 43. The greater of these two reserve balances was the AG 43 reserve. However, the Company was previously holding reserves at the C3 Phase II Total Asset Requirement level, which was higher than the AG 43 amount.

Life policies underwritten as substandard are charged extra premiums. Reserves are computed for a substandard policy by adding the reserve for an otherwise identical non-substandard policy plus a factor times the extra premium charge for the year. The factor varies by duration, type of plan, and underwriting. In addition, an extra mortality reserve is reported for ordinary life insurance policies classified as group conversions. Substandard structured settlement annuity reserves are determined by making a constant addition to the mortality rate of the applicable valuation mortality table so that the life expectancy on the adjusted table is equal to the life expectancy determined by the Company’s underwriters at issue.

The liabilities related to policyholder funds left on deposit with the Company generally are equal to fund balances less applicable surrender charges.

In addition, an extra mortality reserve is held for ordinary life insurance policies classified as group conversions, equal to the excess, if any, of a substandard reserve over a standard reserve based on mortality rates appropriately increased over the standard class mortality rates.

Tabular interest, tabular less actual reserves released, and tabular cost have been determined by formula, except for universal life insurance and deferred annuity reserves, which include fund accumulations for which tabular interest has been determined from basic data. For the determination of tabular interest on funds not involving life contingencies, the actual credited interest is used.

For long-term disability products, disabled life reserves were established using the 1964 Commissioner’s Disability Table for claims incurred prior to January 1, 1989, and the 1987 Commissioner’s Group Disability Table for claims

incurred January 1, 1989 and later, at an interest rate equal to the Single Premium Immediate Annuity rate (based on year incurred) less 1 percent.

Liabilities for deposit-type contracts, which include supplementary contracts without life contingencies and annuities certain, are based on the discounting of future payments at an annual statutory effective rate. Tabular interest on other funds not involving life contingencies is based on the interest rate at which the liability accrues.

Policy and contract claims represent the ultimate net cost of all reported and unreported claims incurred during the year. Reserves for unpaid claims are estimated using individual case-basis valuations and statistical analyses. Those estimates are subject to the effects of trends in claim severity and frequency. The estimates are continually reviewed and adjusted as necessary, as experience develops or new information becomes known; such adjustments are included in current operations.

Reserves for future policy benefits to be paid on life and accident and health policies, incurred in the statement period, but not yet reported, were established using historical data from claim lag experience. The data is aggregated from product specific studies performed on the Company’s business.

Premiums and annuity considerations and related expenses are recognized over different periods. Life premiums are recognized as revenue over the premium paying periods of the related policies. Annuity considerations are recognized as revenue when received. Premiums for deposit-type products are credited directly to the respective reserves and are not recorded in the Statutory Statement of Operations. Acquisition costs such as commissions and other expenses related to the production of new business are charged to the Statutory Statements of Operations as incurred.

Reinsurance premiums and benefits paid or provided are accounted for on a basis consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts.

Annuity and deposit-type contract surrender benefits are reported on a cash basis, and include annuity benefits, payments under supplementary contracts with life contingencies, surrenders and withdrawals. Withdrawals from deposit-type contracts directly reduce the liability for deposit-type contracts and are not reported in the Statutory Statements of Operations.

General insurance expenses include allocated expenses pursuant to a cost allocation agreement. The Company purchases administrative, accounting, marketing and data processing services from AIG or its subsidiaries and is charged based on estimated levels of usage, transactions or time incurred in providing the respective services. The allocation of costs for investment management services purchased from AIG or its subsidiaries and third-party managers is based on the level of assets under management.

Federal income tax expense (benefit) is recognized and computed on a separate company basis pursuant to a tax sharing agreement, because the Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return of its ultimate parent company filing group. To the extent that benefits for net operating losses, foreign tax credits or net capital losses are utilized on a consolidated basis, the Company would recognize tax benefits based upon the amount of those deductions and credits utilized in the consolidated federal income tax return. The federal income tax expense or benefit reflected in the Statutory Statements of Operations represents income taxes provided on income that is currently taxable, but excludes tax on the net realized capital gains or losses.

Income taxes on capital gains or losses reflect differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses on a statutory accounting basis versus a tax accounting basis. The most significant of such differences involve impairments of investments, which are recorded as realized losses in the Statutory Statements of Operations but are not recognized for tax purposes, and the deferral of net capital gains and losses into the IMR for statutory income but not for taxable income. Capital gains and losses on certain related-party transactions are recognized for statutory financial reporting purposes but are deferred for income tax reporting purposes until the security is sold to an outside party.

A deferred tax asset (DTA) or deferred tax liability (DTL) is included in the Statutory Statements of Admitted Assets, Liabilities and Capital and Surplus, which reflects the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the statement values of assets and liabilities for statutory financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes. The change in the net DTA or DTL is reflected in a separate component of unassigned surplus. Net DTA are limited in their admissibility.

Accounting Changes

 

 

 

Substantive changes were made to SSAP 32R, Preferred Stocks effective January 1, 2021, that required all perpetual preferred stocks to be reported at fair value. Prior to this change, perpetual preferred stocks with NAIC designations of “1” through “3” were carried at amortized cost. All other perpetual preferred stocks were stated at the lower of cost, amortized cost or fair value, with unrealized capital losses charged directly to unassigned surplus.

Actuarial Change / Reserve PBR (VM-20 and VM-21)

Principle-based reserving (“PBR”) is designed to tailor the reserving process to more closely reflect the risks of specific products, rather than the previous prescribed approach. Reserve requirements for Corebridge’s life insurance policies issued after January 1, 2020 are contained in subsection 20 of the Valuation Manual (“VM-20”),Requirements for Principle-Based Reserves for Life Products”, policies issued prior to that date are reserved for using the Commissioners Reserve Valuation Method (CRVM). Under VM-20, these reserves are generally more sensitive to changes in actuarial assumptions.

PBR is designed to tailor the reserving process to more closely reflect the risks of specific products, rather than the factor-based approach typically employed historically. Variable Annuity (“VA”) reserving requirements are contained in subsection 21 of the Valuation Manual (“VM-21”),Requirements for Principle-Based Reserves for Variable Annuities”, and replace the previous Actuarial Guideline XLVIII (“AG 43”) requirements, which also employed a principle-based approach. The Company fully applied VM-21 requirements to reserving for both new and existing VA contracts effective January 1, 2020. Under VM-21, these reserves are generally more sensitive to changes in interest rates. The impact of the implementation of New York Rule 213 (NY’s version of VM-21) was $(20) million.

There were no other new accounting standards that were effective during the periods covered by this statement that had a material impact on the operations of the Company.

Correction of Errors

 

 

SAP requires that corrections of errors related to prior periods be reported as adjustments to unassigned surplus to the extent that they are not material to prior periods.

In 2022, three out-of-period errors, the largest due to separate account rider fees, were identified and corrected, which increased unassigned surplus by $7 million. The Company’s management does not believe these corrections to be material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flow for the Company’s previously filed annual statement.

In 2021, one out-of-period error due to an understated model of economic hedge targeting was identified and corrected, which decreased unassigned surplus by $5 million. The Company’s management does not believe these corrections to be material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flow for the Company’s previously filed annual statement.

In 2020, two out-of-period errors were identified and corrected, which decreased unassigned surplus by $2 million. The Company’s management does not believe these corrections to be material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flow for the Company’s previously filed annual statement.

Differences in Statutory Accounting and U.S. GAAP Accounting

 

 

The accompanying statutory financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the NYDFS. These accounting practices vary in certain respects from U.S. GAAP. The primary differences between NAIC SAP and U.S. GAAP are as follows.

The objectives of U.S. GAAP differ from the objectives of SAP. U.S. GAAP is designed to measure the entity as a going concern and to produce general purpose financial statements to meet the varying needs of the different users of financial statements. SAP is designed to address the accounting requirements of regulators, who are the primary users of statutory-basis financial statements and whose primary objective is to measure solvency. As a result, U.S. GAAP stresses measurement of earnings and financial condition of a business from period to period, while SAP stresses measurement of the ability of the insurer to pay claims in the future.

Investments. Under SAP, investments in bonds and redeemable preferred stocks are generally reported at amortized cost. However, if bonds are designated category “6” and redeemable preferred stocks are designated categories “4 – 6” by the NAIC, these investments are reported at the lesser of amortized cost or fair value with a credit or charge to unrealized investment gains or losses. For U.S. GAAP, such fixed-maturity investments are designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading, or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity fixed-maturity investments are reported at amortized cost, and the remaining fixed-maturity investments are reported at fair value, with unrealized capital gains and losses reported in operations for those designated as trading and as a component of other comprehensive income for those designated as available-for-sale.

Under SAP, all single- and multi-class MBS or other ABS (e.g., Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMO) are adjusted for the effects of changes in prepayment assumptions on the related accretion of discount or amortization of premium with respect to such securities using either the retrospective or prospective method. For LBaSS subsequent to July 1, 2009, if it is determined that a decline in fair value is other than temporary the cost basis of the security is written down to the discounted estimated future cash flows. Bonds, other than LBaSS, that are other-than-temporarily impaired are written down to fair value. For U.S. GAAP purposes, all securities, purchased or retained, that represent beneficial interests in securitized assets (e.g., CMO, MBS and ABS securities), other than high credit quality securities, would be adjusted using the prospective method when there is a change in estimated future cash flows. If high-credit quality securities must be adjusted, the retrospective method would be used. For all bonds, if it is determined that a decline in fair value is other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the security would be written down to the discounted estimated future cash flows, while the non-credit portion of the impairment would be recorded as an unrealized loss in other comprehensive income.

Under SAP, when it is probable that the insurer will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the mortgage agreement, valuation allowances are established for temporarily-impaired mortgage loans based on the difference between the unpaid loan balance and the estimated fair value of the underlying real estate, less estimated costs to obtain and sell. The initial valuation allowance and subsequent changes in the allowance for mortgage loans are charged or credited directly to unassigned surplus rather than as a component of earnings as would be required under U.S. GAAP. If the impairment is other-than-temporary, a direct write down is recognized as a realized loss, and a new cost basis is established. Under U.S. GAAP, effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the new accounting standard for current expected credit losses (CECL). This standard requires an allowance for credit losses based on the expectation of lifetime credit losses. Prior to the adoption of CECL, valuation allowances would be established when the insurer determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect principal and interest due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Such U.S. GAAP allowances would be based on the difference between the unpaid loan balance and the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate or, if foreclosure is probable, on the estimated fair value of the underlying real estate.

Under SAP, joint ventures, partnerships and limited liability companies in which the insurer has a minor ownership interest (i.e., less than 10 percent) or lacks control are generally recorded based on the underlying audited U.S. GAAP basis equity of the investee. Under U.S. GAAP, joint ventures, partnerships and limited liability companies in which the insurer has a significant ownership interest or is deemed to have control are accounted for under the equity method, where that is not the case, such investments are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings for equity securities previously designated as available-for-sale and for equity securities measured at fair value at the Company’s election.

Real Estate. Under SAP, investments in real estate are reported net of related obligations; under U.S. GAAP, investments in real estate are reported on a gross basis. Under SAP, real estate owned and occupied by the insurer is included in investments; under U.S. GAAP, real estate owned and occupied by the insurer is reported as an operating asset, and operating income and expenses include rent for the insurer’s occupancy of those properties.

Derivatives. Under SAP, derivative instruments used in hedging transactions that do not meet or no longer meet the criteria of an effective hedge are accounted for at fair value with the changes in fair value recorded as unrealized capital gains or losses. Under U.S. GAAP, such derivative instruments are accounted for at fair value with the changes in fair value recorded as realized capital gains or losses. Under U.S. GAAP, fair value measurement for free standing derivatives incorporate either counterparty’s credit risk for derivative assets or the insurer’s credit risk for derivative liabilities by determining the explicit cost to protect against credit exposure. This credit exposure evaluation takes into

consideration observable credit default swap rates. Under SAP, non-performance risk (own credit-risk) is not reflected in the fair value calculations for derivative liabilities. Under U.S. GAAP, index features in certain indexed universal life and fixed index annuity contracts and certain guaranteed features of variable and fixed index annuities are bifurcated and accounted for separately as embedded policy derivatives. Under SAP, embedded derivatives are not bifurcated or accounted for separately from the host contract.

Interest Maintenance Reserve. Under SAP, the insurer is required to maintain an IMR. IMR is calculated based on methods prescribed by the NAIC and was established to prevent large fluctuations in interest-related capital gains and losses realized through sales or OTTI. IMR applies to all types of fixed maturity investments, including bonds, preferred stocks, MBS, ABS and mortgage loans. After-tax capital gains or losses realized upon the sale or impairment of such investments resulting from changes in the overall level of interest rates are excluded from current period net income and transferred to the IMR. The transferred after-tax net realized capital gains or losses are then amortized into income over the remaining period to maturity of the divested asset. Realized capital gains and losses are reported net of tax and transfers to the IMR, after net gain from operations. Any net asset IMR balance is treated as non-admitted asset. This reserve is not required under U.S. GAAP and pre-tax realized capital gains and losses are reported as component of total revenues, with related taxes included in taxes from operations.

Asset Valuation Reserve. Under SAP, the insurer is required to maintain an AVR, which is computed in accordance with a prescribed formula and represents a provision for possible fluctuations in the value of bonds, equity securities, mortgage loans, real estate, and other invested assets. The level of AVR is based on both the type of investment and its credit rating. Under SAP, AVR is included in total adjusted capital for RBC analysis purposes. Changes to AVR are charged or credited directly to unassigned surplus. This reserve is not required under U.S. GAAP.

Subsidiaries. Under SAP, investments in insurance subsidiaries are recorded based upon the underlying audited statutory equity of a subsidiary with all undistributed earnings or losses shown as an unrealized capital gain or loss in unassigned surplus. Dividends received by the parent company from its subsidiaries are recorded through net investment income. Under U.S. GAAP, subsidiaries’ financial statements are combined with the parent company’s financial statements through consolidation. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated under U.S. GAAP. Dividends received by the parent company from its subsidiaries reduce the parent company’s investment in the subsidiaries.

Policy Acquisition Costs and Sales Inducements. Under SAP, policy acquisition costs are expensed when incurred. Under U.S. GAAP, acquisition costs that are incremental and directly related to the successful acquisition of new and renewal of existing insurance and investment-type contracts, are deferred and amortized, generally in proportion to the present value of expected future gross profit margins. For all other insurance contracts, to the extent recoverable from future policy revenues, deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC) are amortized, with interest, over the premium-paying period of the related contracts, using assumptions that are consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves. Under SAP, sales inducements are expensed when incurred. Under U.S. GAAP, certain sales inducements on interest-sensitive life insurance contracts and deferred annuities are deferred and amortized over the life of the contract using the same methodology and assumptions used to amortize DAC.

Deferred Premiums. Under SAP, when deferred premiums exist, statutory deferred premiums are held as a statutory asset, while under U.S. GAAP, deferred premiums are held as a contra-liability in the future policy benefits liability.

Non-admitted Assets. Certain assets designated as “non-admitted,” principally any net asset IMR, agents’ balances or unsecured loans or advances to agents, certain DTAs, furniture, equipment and computer software, receivables over 90 days and prepaid expenses, as well as other assets not specifically identified as admitted assets within the NAIC SAP, are excluded from the Statutory Statements of Admitted Assets, Liabilities, Capital and Surplus and are charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under U.S. GAAP, such assets are included in the balance sheet.

Universal Life and Annuity Policies. Under SAP, revenues for universal life and annuity policies containing mortality or morbidity risk considerations consist of the entire premium received, and benefits incurred consist of the total of death benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. Payments received on contracts that do not incorporate any mortality or morbidity risk considerations (deposit-type contracts) are credited directly to an appropriate liability for deposit-type contract account without recognizing premium income. Interest credited to deposit-type contracts is recorded as an expense in the Statutory Statements of Operations as incurred. Payments that represent a return of policyholder balances are recorded as a direct reduction of the liability for deposit-type contracts, rather than a benefit

expense. Under U.S. GAAP, premiums received in excess of policy charges are not recognized as premium revenue, and benefits represent the excess of benefits paid over the policy account value and interest credited to the account values.

Benefit Reserves. Under SAP, loading is the difference between the gross and valuation net premium. Valuation net premium is calculated using valuation assumptions which are different for statutory and U.S. GAAP. Statutory valuation assumptions are set by the insurer within limits as defined by statutory law. U.S. GAAP valuation assumptions are set by the insurer based on management’s estimates and judgment.

Policyholder funds not involving life contingencies use different valuation assumptions for SAP and U.S. GAAP. Under SAP, prescribed rates of interest related to payout annuities are used in the discounting of expected benefit payments, while under U.S. GAAP, the insurer’s best estimates of interest rates are used.

Under SAP, the Commissioners’ Reserve Valuation Method is used for the majority of individual insurance reserves. Under U.S. GAAP, individual insurance policyholder liabilities for traditional forms of insurance are generally established using the net level premium method. For interest-sensitive policies, a liability for policyholder account balances is established under U.S. GAAP based on the contract value that has accrued to the benefit of the policyholder. Policy assumptions used in the estimation of policyholder liabilities are generally prescribed under SAP. Under U.S. GAAP, policy assumptions are based upon best estimates as of the date the policy was issued, with provisions for the risk of adverse deviation.

Under SAP, the CARVM is used for the majority of individual deferred annuity reserves, while under U.S. GAAP, individual deferred annuity policyholder liabilities are generally equal to the contract value that has accrued to the benefit of the policyholder, together with liabilities for certain contractual guarantees, if applicable.

Under SAP, reserves for fixed rate deposit-type contracts are based upon their accumulated values, discounted at an annual statutory effective rate, while under U.S. GAAP, reserves for deposit-type contracts are recorded at their accumulated values.

Reinsurance. Under SAP, policy and contract liabilities ceded to reinsurers are reported as reductions of the related reserves rather than as assets as required under U.S. GAAP. Under SAP, a liability for reinsurance balances has been provided for unsecured policy reserves, unearned premiums, and unpaid losses ceded to reinsurers not licensed to assume such business. Changes to these amounts are credited or charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under U.S. GAAP, an allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings. Under SAP, the criteria used to demonstrate risk transfer varies from U.S. GAAP, which may result in transactions that are accounted for as reinsurance for SAP and deposit accounting for U.S. GAAP. Under SAP, the reserve credit permitted for unauthorized reinsurers is less than or equal to the amount of letter of credit or funds held in trust by the reinsurer. Under U.S. GAAP, assumed and ceded reinsurance is reflected on a gross basis in the balance sheet, and certain commissions allowed by reinsurers on ceded business are deferred and amortized on a basis consistent with DAC.

Policyholder Dividend Liabilities. Under SAP, policyholder dividends are recognized when declared. Under U.S. GAAP, policyholder dividends are recognized over the term of the related policies.

Separate Accounts. Under SAP, separate account surplus created through the use of the CRVM, the VACARVM or other reserving methods is reported by the general account as an unsettled transfer from the separate account. The net change on such transfers is included as a part of the net gain from operations in the general account. This is not required under U.S. GAAP.

Separate accounts include certain non-unitized assets which primarily represent MVA fixed options of variable annuity contracts issued in various states. Under SAP, these contracts are accounted for in the separate account financial statements, while under U.S. GAAP, they are accounted for in the general account.

Deferred Income Taxes. Under SAP, statutory DTAs that are more likely than not to be realized are limited to: 1) the amount of federal income taxes paid in prior years that can be recovered through loss carrybacks for existing temporary differences that reverse by the end of the subsequent calendar year, plus 2) the lesser of the remaining gross DTA expected to be realized within a maximum three years of the reporting date or a maximum 15 percent of the capital and surplus excluding any net DTA, EDP equipment and operating software and any net positive goodwill, plus 3) the amount of the remaining gross DTA that can be offset against existing gross DTLs. The remaining DTAs are non-admitted. Deferred taxes do not include amounts for state taxes. Under U.S. GAAP, state taxes are included in the

computation of deferred taxes, all DTAs are recorded and a valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that some portion of the DTA will not be realized. Under SAP, income tax expense is based upon taxes currently payable. Changes in deferred taxes are reported in surplus and subject to admissibility limits. Under U.S. GAAP, changes in deferred taxes are recorded in income tax expense.

Offsetting of Assets and Liabilities. Under SAP, offsetting of assets and liabilities is not permitted when there are master netting agreements unless four requirements for valid right of offset are met. The requirements include 1) each of the two parties owes the other determinable amounts, 2) the reporting party has the right to set off the amount owed with the amount owed by the other party, 3) the reporting party intends to set off, and 4) the right of setoff is enforceable. The prohibition against offsetting extends to derivatives and collateral posted against derivative positions, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and lending transactions. Under U.S. GAAP, these amounts under master netting arrangements may be offset and presented on a net basis.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the number of bonds and equity securities in an unrealized loss position was 3,721 and 1,178, respectively. Bonds comprised 3,716 of the total of which 282 were in a continuous loss position greater than 12 months at December 31, 2022. Bonds comprised 1,175 of the total of which 290 were in a continuous loss position greater than 12 months at December 31, 2021.

The Company did not recognize the unrealized losses in earnings on these fixed maturity securities at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, because the Company neither intends to sell the securities nor does the Company believe that it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis. For fixed maturity securities with significant declines, the Company performed fundamental credit analyses on a security-by-security basis, which included consideration of credit enhancements, expected defaults on underlying collateral, review of relevant industry analyst reports and forecasts and other available market data.

Bonds in or near default as to payment of principal or interest had a statement value of $29 million and $106 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which is the fair value. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no income excluded from due and accrued for bonds.

At December 31, 2022, the Company’s bond portfolio included bonds totaling $1.0 billion not rated investment grade by the NAIC designations (categories 3-6). These bonds accounted for 3 percent of the Company’s total assets and 4 percent of invested assets. These below investment grade securities, excluding structured securities, span across 13 industries. At December 31, 2021, the Company’s bond portfolio included bonds totaling $1.0 billion not rated investment grade by the NAIC designations (categories 3-6). These bonds accounted for 4 percent of the Company’s total assets and 5 percent of invested assets. These below investment grade securities, excluding structured securities, span across 12 industries.

LBaSS

 

 

The Company determines fair value of LBaSS based on the amount at which a security could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The majority of the Company’s ABS, RMBS, CMBS, and collateralized debt obligations (CDO) are priced by approved independent third-party valuation service providers and broker dealer quotations. Small portions of the LBaSS that are not traded in active markets are priced by market standard internal valuation methodologies, which include discounted cash flow methodologies and matrix pricing. The estimated fair values are based on available market information and management’s judgments.

At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had exposure to a variety of LBaSS. These securities could have significant concentrations of credit risk by country, geographical region, property type, servicer or other characteristics. As part of the quarterly surveillance process, the Company takes into account many of these characteristics in making the OTTI assessment.

At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any LBaSS with a recognized OTTI due to the intent to sell or an inability or lack of intent to retain the security for a period of time sufficient to recover the amortized cost basis.

During 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized total OTTI of $20 million, $1 million and $14 million, respectively, on LBaSS that were still held by the Company. In addition, at December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company held loan-backed impaired securities (fair value is less than cost or amortized cost) for which an OTTI had not been recognized in earnings as a realized loss. Such impairments include securities with a recognized OTTI for non-interest (credit) related declines that were recognized in earnings, but for which an associated interest-related decline has not been recognized in earnings as a realized capital loss.

The following table summarizes the fair value and aggregate amount of unrealized losses on LBaSS and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position:

In its OTTI assessment, the Company considers all information relevant to the collectability of the security, including past history, current conditions and reasonable forecasts when developing an estimate of future cash flows. Relevant analyst reports and forecasts for the asset class also receive appropriate consideration. The Company also considers how credit enhancements affect the expected performance of the security. In addition, the Company generally considers its cash and working capital requirements and expected cash flows in relation to its business plans and how such forecasts affect the intent and ability to hold such securities to recovery of their amortized cost.

The Company does not have any LBaSS for which it is not practicable to estimate fair values.

During 2022, the Company did not derecognize any mortgage loans and did not recognize any real estate collateral as a result of foreclosure.

The mortgage loan portfolio has been originated by the Company under strict underwriting standards. Commercial mortgage loans on properties such as offices, hotels and shopping centers generally represent a higher level of risk than do mortgage loans secured by multi-family residences. This greater risk is due to several factors, including the larger size of such loans and the more immediate effects of general economic conditions on these commercial property types. However, due to the Company’s strict underwriting standards, the Company believes that it has prudently managed the risk attributable to its mortgage loan portfolio while maintaining attractive yields.

7. SUBPRIME MORTGAGE RISK EXPOSURE

 

 

The following features are commonly recognized characteristics of subprime mortgage loans:

 

An interest rate above prime to borrowers who do not qualify for prime rate loans;

 

Borrowers with low credit ratings (FICO scores);

 

Interest-only or negative amortizing loans;

 

Unconventionally high initial loan-to-value ratios;

 

Low initial payments based on a fixed introductory rate that expires after a short initial period, then adjusts to a variable index rate plus a margin for the remaining term of the loan;

 

Borrowers with less than conventional documentation of their income and/or net assets;

 

Very high or no limits on how much the payment amount or the interest rate may increase at reset periods, potentially causing a substantial increase in the monthly payment amount; and/or,

 

Substantial prepayment penalties and/or prepayment penalties that extend beyond the initial interest rate adjustment period.

Non-agency RMBS can belong to one of several different categories depending on the characteristics of the borrower, the property and the loan used to finance the property. Categorization is a function of FICO score, the type of loan, loan-to-value ratio, and property type and loan documentation.

Generally, subprime loans are made to borrowers with low FICO scores, low levels of equity and reduced income/asset documentation. Due to these characteristics, subprime borrowers pay a substantially higher interest rate than prime borrowers. In addition, they often utilize mortgage products that reduce their monthly payments in the near-term. These include adjustable-rate mortgages with low initial rates or interest-only loans. Borrowers in products like this often experience significant “payment shock” when the teaser payment resets upwards after the initial fixed period.

The primary classification mechanism the Company uses for subprime loans is FICO score. Specifically, a pool with an average FICO at origination less than 650 is considered to be subprime. However, the Company may subjectively adjust this classification based on an assessment of the other parameters mentioned above.

To monitor subprime securities, the Company uses a model with vintage-specific assumptions for delinquency roll rates, loss severities and the timing of losses. As and when needed, these vintage-based assumptions are supplemented with deal-specific information including, but not limited to, geographic distribution, realized loss severities, trigger status and scenario analysis.

The Company has no direct exposure through investments in subprime mortgage loans. The Company’s exposure is through other investments, primarily in RMBS, as described above.

The Company has no underwriting exposure to subprime mortgage risk through mortgage guaranty or financial guaranty insurance coverage.

8. DERIVATIVES

 

 

The Company has taken positions in certain derivative financial instruments to mitigate or hedge the impact of changes in interest rates, foreign currencies, equity markets, swap spreads, volatility, correlations and yield curve risk on cash flows from investment income, policyholder liabilities and equity. Financial instruments used by the Company for such purposes include interest rate swaps, interest rate swaptions, cross-currency swaps, futures and futures options on equity indices, and futures and futures options on government securities. The Company does not engage in the use of derivative instruments for speculative purposes and is neither a dealer nor trader in derivative instruments.

All derivative instruments are recognized in the financial statements. As a result, derivatives are accounted for at fair value and the changes in the fair value recorded in surplus as unrealized gains or losses, net of deferred taxes. The value of the Company’s exchange traded futures contracts relates to the one day lag in the net cash settlement of these contracts.

The Company recognized a net unrealized capital loss of $95 million in 2022, an unrealized capital gain of $63 million in 2021 and an unrealized capital gain of 11 million in 2020, related to derivatives that did not qualify for hedge accounting.

Net cash collateral received for derivative transactions increased in the year ended 2022, as a result of increases in fair values of derivatives covered by ISDA Master Agreements and Credit Support Annex provisions. At December 31, 2022, the Company held $78 million of collateral for derivatives, which is invested in cash, cash equivalents and/or short-term investments.

Refer to Note 3 for disclosures related to net realized capital gains (losses).

Swaps, Options, and Futures

 

 

Interest rate or cross-currency swap agreements are agreements to exchange with a counterparty, at specified intervals, payments of differing character (for example, variable-rate payments exchanged for fixed-rate payments) or in different currencies, based on an underlying principal balance, notional amount. Generally no cash is exchanged at the outset of the contract and no principal payments are made by either party. A single net payment is usually made by one counterparty at each contractual payment due date, and this net payment is included in the Statutory Statement of Operations.

Options are contracts that grant the purchaser, for a premium payment, the right, but not the obligation, either to purchase or sell a financial instrument at a specified price within a specified period of time. The Company purchases call options on the S&P 500 Index to offset the risk of certain guarantees of specific equity-index annuity and universal life policy values. The Company also purchases put options on the S&P 500 Index to offset volatility risk arising from

minimum guarantees embedded in variable annuities. The options are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in unrealized investment gains and losses.

Financial futures are contracts between two parties that commit one party to purchase and the other to sell a particular commodity or financial instrument at a price determined on the final settlement day of the contract. Futures contracts detail the quality and quantity of the underlying asset; they are standardized to facilitate trading on a futures exchange. Some futures contracts may call for physical delivery of the asset, while others are settled in cash. The Company uses futures contracts on Euro dollar deposits, U.S. Treasury Notes, U.S. Treasury Bonds, the S&P 500 Index, MidCap 400, Russell 2000, MSCI EAFE, foreign government debt securities, and foreign denominated equity indices to offset the risk of certain guarantees on annuity policy values.

Interest Rate Risk

 

 

Interest rate derivatives are used to manage interest rate risk associated with certain guarantees of variable annuities and equity indexed annuities and certain bonds. The Company’s interest rate hedging derivative instruments include (1) interest rate swaps and swaptions; (2) listed futures on government securities; and (3) listed futures options on government securities; and (4) unlisted swaps and swaptions in U.S. Dollar Secured Overnight Financing Rate.

Currency Risk

 

 

Foreign exchange contracts used by the Company include cross-currency swaps, which are used to reduce risks from changes in currency exchange rates with respect to investments denominated in foreign currencies that the Company holds.

Equity Risk

 

 

Equity derivatives are used to mitigate financial risk embedded in certain insurance liabilities.

Credit Risk

 

 

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments, but it does not expect any counterparties to fail to meet their obligations given their high credit ratings. For over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives, the Company’s net credit exposure is determined based on master netting agreements, which take into consideration all derivative positions with the counterparty, as well as collateral posted by the counterparty at the balance sheet date. The Company is exposed to credit risk when the net position with a particular counterparty results in an asset that exceeds collateral pledged by that counterparty.

For OTC contracts, the Company generally uses an International Swaps and Derivative Association Master Agreement (ISDA Master Agreement) and Credit Support Annexes with bilateral collateral provisions to reduce counterparty credit exposures. An ISDA Master Agreement is an agreement between two counterparties, which may cover multiple derivative transactions and such ISDA Master Agreement generally provides for the net settlement of all or a specified group of these derivative transactions, as well as transferred collateral, through a single payment, in a single currency, in the event of a default affecting any one derivative transaction or a termination event affecting all or a specified group of the transactions. The Company minimizes the risk that counterparties might be unable to fulfill their contractual obligations by monitoring counterparty credit exposure and collateral value and may require additional collateral to be posted upon the occurrence of certain events or circumstances. In the unlikely event of a failure to perform by any of the counterparties to these derivative transactions, there would not be a material effect on the Company’s admitted assets, liabilities or capital and surplus.

The Company has also entered into exchange-traded options and futures contracts. Under exchange-traded futures contracts, the Company agrees to purchase a specified number of contracts with other parties and to post or receive variation margin on a daily basis in an amount equal to the difference in the daily market values of those contracts. The parties with whom the Company enters into exchange-traded futures are regulated futures commission merchants who are members of a trading exchange. The credit risk of exchange-traded futures is partially mitigated because variation margin is settled daily in cash. Exchange-traded option contracts are not subject to daily margin settlements and amounts due to the Company based upon favorable movements in the underlying securities or indices are owed upon exercise.

10. FAIR VALUE INSTRUMENTS

 

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

 

The Company carries certain financial instruments at fair value. The Company defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company is responsible for the determination of the value of the investments carried at fair value and the supporting methodologies and assumptions.

The degree of judgment used in measuring the fair value of financial instruments generally inversely correlates with the level of observable valuation inputs. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets generally have more pricing observability and less judgment is used in measuring fair value. Conversely, financial instruments for which no quoted prices are available have less observability and are measured at fair value using valuation models or other pricing techniques that require more judgment. Pricing observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of financial instrument, whether the financial instrument is new to the market and not yet established, the characteristics specific to the transaction, liquidity and general market conditions

Fair Value Hierarchy

 

 

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured and classified in accordance with a fair value hierarchy consisting of three “levels” based on the observability of valuation inputs:

 

Level 1: Fair value measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that the Company has the ability to access for identical assets or liabilities. Market price data generally is obtained from exchange or dealer markets. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for such instruments.

 

Level 2: Fair value measurements based on 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, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, 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.

 

Level 3: Fair value measurements based on valuation techniques that use significant inputs that are unobservable. Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair values of positions classified in Level 3. The circumstances for using these measurements include those in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Therefore, the Company must make certain assumptions as to the inputs a hypothetical market participant would use to value that asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

Bonds: Fair value is based principally on value from independent third-party valuation service providers, broker quotes and other independent information.

Preferred stocks: Fair value of unaffiliated preferred stocks is based principally on value from independent third-party service providers, broker quotes and other independent information.

Cash, cash equivalents and short term investments: Carrying amount approximate fair value because of the relatively short period of time between origination and expected realization and their limited exposure to credit risk.

Mortgage loans: Fair values are primarily determined by discounting future cash flows to the present at current market rates, using expected prepayment rates.

Contract loans: Carrying amounts, which approximate fair value, are generally equal to unpaid principal amount as of each reporting date. No consideration is given to credit risk because contract loans are effectively collateralized by the cash surrender value of the policies.

NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

Securities lending reinvested collateral assets: Securities lending assets are generally invested in short-term investments and thus carrying amounts approximate fair values because of the relatively short period of time between origination and expected realizations.

Separate account assets: Variable annuity and variable universal life assets are carried at the market value of the underlying securities. Certain separate account assets related to market value adjustment fixed annuity contracts are carried at book value. Fair value is based principally on the value from independent third-party valuation service providers, broker quotes and other independent information.

Policy reserves and contractual liabilities: Fair value for investment contracts (those without significant mortality risk) not accounted for at fair value were estimated for disclosure purposes using discounted cash flow calculations based upon interest rates currently being offered for similar contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining for the contracts being valued. When no similar contracts are being offered, the discount rate is the appropriate swap rates (if available) or current risk-free interest rates consistent with the currency in which cash flows are denominated.

Payable for securities lending: Cash collateral received from the securities lending program is invested in short-term investments and the offsetting liability is included in payable for securities lending. The carrying amount of this liability approximates fair value because of the relatively short period between origination of the liability and expected settlement.

Receivables/payables for securities: Such amounts represent transactions of a short-term nature for which the statement value is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Valuation Methodologies of Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

 

 

Bonds

 

 

Bonds with NAIC 6 or 6* designations and redeemable preferred stocks with NAIC 4, 5 or 6 designations are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Perpetual preferred stock are carried at fair value, not to exceed any currently effective call rate. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Whenever available, the Company obtains quoted prices in active markets for identical assets at the balance sheet date to measure bonds at fair value. Market price data generally is obtained from exchange or dealer markets.

The Company estimates the fair value of securities not traded in active markets, by referring to traded securities with similar attributes, using dealer quotations, a matrix pricing methodology, discounted cash flow analyses or internal valuation models. This methodology considers such factors as the issuer’s industry, the security’s rating and tenor, its coupon rate, its position in the capital structure of the issuer, yield curves, credit curves, prepayment rates and other relevant factors. For bonds that are not traded in active markets or that are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations are adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, and such adjustments generally are based on available market evidence. In the absence of such evidence, management’s best estimate is used.

Fair values for bonds and preferred stocks based on observable market prices for identical or similar instruments implicitly include the incorporation of counterparty credit risk. Fair values for bonds and preferred stocks based on internal models incorporate counterparty credit risk by using discount rates that take into consideration cash issuance spreads for similar instruments or other observable information.

Common Stocks (Unaffiliated)

 

 

 

Whenever available, the Company obtains quoted prices in active markets for identical assets at the balance sheet date to measure equity securities at fair value. Market price data is generally obtained from exchanges or dealer markets.

Freestanding Derivatives

 

 

Derivative assets and liabilities can be exchange-traded or traded OTC. The Company generally values exchange-traded derivatives, such as futures and options, using quoted prices in active markets for identical derivatives at the balance sheet date.

OTC derivatives are valued using market transactions and other observable market evidence whenever possible, including market-based inputs to models, model calibration to market clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. When models are used, the selection of a particular model to value an OTC derivative depends on the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. The Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Valuation models can require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices and rates, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, prepayment rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC derivatives that trade in liquid markets, such as generic forwards, swaps and options, model inputs can generally be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means, and model selection does not involve significant management judgment.

Certain OTC derivatives trade in less liquid markets with limited pricing information, and the determination of fair value for these derivatives is inherently more difficult. When the Company does not have corroborating market evidence to support significant model inputs and cannot verify the model using market transactions, the transaction price is initially used as the best estimate of fair value. Accordingly, when a pricing model is used to value such an instrument, the model is adjusted so the model value at inception equals the transaction price. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Company updates valuation inputs when corroborated by evidence such as similar market transactions, independent third-party valuation services and/or broker or dealer quotations, or other empirical market data. When appropriate, valuations are adjusted for various factors such as liquidity, bid/offer spreads and credit considerations. Such adjustments are generally based on available market evidence. In the absence of such evidence, management’s best estimate is used.

Assets are transferred out of Level 3 when circumstances change such that significant inputs can be corroborated with market observable data or when the asset is no longer carried at fair value. This may be due to a significant increase in market activity for the asset, a specific event, one or more significant inputs becoming observable or when a long-term interest rate significant to a valuation becomes short-term and thus observable. Transfers out of level 3 can also occur due to favorable credit migration resulting in a higher NAIC designation. Securities are generally transferred into Level 3 due to a decrease in market transparency, downward credit migration and an overall increase in price disparity for certain individual security types. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and out at the end of the reporting period, consistent with the date of the determination of fair value.

In both 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 securities.

Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair values of positions classified in Level 3 in the tables above. As a result, the unrealized capital gains (losses) on instruments held at December 31, 2022 and 2021 may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable inputs (e.g., changes in unobservable long-dated volatilities).

Quantitative Information About Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

 

 

The Company had no quantitative information about level 3 fair value measurements to report at December 31, 2022.

12. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS

 

 

Separate Accounts

 

 

The separate accounts held by the Company consist primarily of variable life insurance policies and variable annuities. These contracts generally are non-guaranteed in nature such that the benefit is determined by the performance and/or market value of the investments held in the separate accounts. The net investment experience of the separate accounts is credited directly to the policyholder and can be positive or negative.

The separate accounts also include a funding agreement, which provides a stable value protection feature on the assets held within the account.

The Company does not engage in securities lending transactions within the separate accounts.

The legal insulation of the separate account assets prevents such assets from being generally available to satisfy claims resulting from the general account.

Some separate account liabilities are guaranteed by the general account. To compensate the general account for the risks taken, the separate accounts pay risk charges to the general account.

If claims were filed on all contracts, the current total maximum guarantee the general account would provide to the separate account as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 is $246 million and $49 million, respectively.

13. RESERVES FOR GUARANTEED POLICY BENEFITS AND ENHANCEMENTS

 

 

Variable annuity contracts may include certain contractually guaranteed benefits to the contract holder. These guaranteed features include GMDB that are payable in the event of death, and living benefits that are payable in the event of annuitization, or, in other instances, at specified dates during the accumulation period. Living benefits include guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (GMWB) and, to a lesser extent, guaranteed minimum accumulation benefits (GMAB), which are no longer offered. A variable annuity contract may include more than one type of guaranteed benefit feature; for example, it may have both a GMDB and a GMWB. However, a policyholder generally can only receive payout from one guaranteed feature on a contract containing a death benefit and a living benefit, i.e. the features are mutually exclusive. A policyholder cannot purchase more than one living benefit on one contract. The net amount at risk for each feature is calculated irrespective of the existence of other features; as a result, the net amount at risk for each feature is not additive to that of other features.

Reserves for GMDB and GMWB were included in the VACARVM reserves. Total reserves in excess of basic reserves were $124 million and $138 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

GMDB

 

 

Depending on the product, the GMDB feature may provide a death benefit of either (a) total deposits made to the contract less any partial withdrawals plus a minimum return or (b) the highest contract value attained, typically on any anniversary date minus any subsequent withdrawals following the contract anniversary.

The net amount at risk, which represents the guaranteed benefit exposure in excess of the current account value if death claims were filed on all contracts related to GMDB, was $227 million and $7 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

GMWB

 

 

Certain of the Company’s variable annuity contracts offer optional GMWB. With a GMWB, the contract holder can monetize the excess of the guaranteed amount over the account value of the contract only through a series of withdrawals that do not exceed a specific percentage per year of the guaranteed amount. If, after the series of withdrawals, the account value is exhausted, the contract holder will receive a series of annuity payments equal to the remaining guaranteed amount, and, for lifetime GMWB products, the annuity payments continue as long as the covered person(s) are living.

The net amount at risk for GMWB represents the present value of minimum guaranteed withdrawal payments, in accordance with contract terms, in excess of account value. The net amount at risk related to these guarantees was $10 million and $32 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company uses derivative instruments and other financial instruments to mitigate a portion of the exposure that arises from GMWB.

14. PARTICIPATING POLICY CONTRACTS

 

 

Participating policy contracts entitle a policyholder to share in earnings through dividend payments. These contracts represented 7.0 percent and 10.8 percent of gross insurance in-force at December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Policyholder dividends for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 were immaterial.

16. REINSURANCE

 

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company utilizes internal and third-party reinsurance relationships to manage insurance risks and to facilitate capital management strategies. Long-duration reinsurance is effected principally under yearly renewable term treaties. Pools of highly-rated third party reinsurers are utilized to manage net amounts at risk in excess of retention limits. Reinsurance agreements do not relieve the Company of its direct obligations from its beneficiaries. Thus, a credit exposure exists with respect to reinsurance ceded to the extent that any reinsurer fails to meet the obligations assumed under any reinsurance agreement. In addition, the Company assumes reinsurance from other insurance companies.

Reinsurance premiums assumed and reserves on reinsurance assumed were not significant in 2022, 2021 or 2020. Reinsurance premiums ceded in 2022, 2021 and 2020 were $133 million, $205 million and $210 million, respectively. The reserve credit taken on reinsurance ceded was $213 million and $270 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amounts payable or recoverable for reinsurance on policy and contract liabilities are not subject to periodic or maximum limits. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s reinsurance recoverables were $49 million and $69 million, respectively.

The NAIC Model Regulation “Valuation of Life Insurance Policies” (Regulation XXX) requires U.S. life insurers to establish additional statutory reserves for term life insurance policies with long-term premium guarantees and universal life policies with secondary guarantees (ULSGs). In addition, NAIC Actuarial Guideline 38 (Guideline AXXX) clarifies the application of Regulation XXX as to these guarantees, including certain ULSGs.

The Company manages the capital impact of statutory reserve requirements under Regulation XXX through intercompany reinsurance. The Company has a coinsurance/modified coinsurance agreement (the Co/Modco Agreement) with AIG Life of Bermuda, Ltd. (AIGB), an affiliated offshore life insurer. Under the Co/Modco Agreement, AIGB reinsures a 90 percent quota share of the Company’s net liability on term life contracts issued by the Company with issue dates on or after March 1, 2002 through August 1, 2009. AIGB is a Bermuda licensed insurer but is not licensed to transact insurance or reinsurance, nor is accredited as a reinsurer in the State of New York. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not report any liabilities for unauthorized reinsurance, as the coinsurance reserves ($116 million and $158 million, respectively) ceded to AIGB were fully secured by letters of credit. These letters of credit, secured by AIGB for the benefit of the Company, contain applicable provisions required by NAIC SAP and are subject to reimbursement by AIG in the event of a drawdown. In addition, there are certain terms and conditions regarding events of default, which if triggered by future AIG events, would require the Company to pursue a variety of remedies to preserve the amount of the reserve credit. Pursuant to the modified coinsurance portion of the Co/Modco Agreement, the Company does not record a reserve credit since it retains, controls, and owns all assets held in relation to the modified coinsurance reserve.

NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

The Co/Modco Agreement decreased the Company’s pre-tax earnings by $78 million, $68 million and $47 million in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The agreement is unlimited in duration, but was amended to terminate for new business issued on and after August 1, 2009.

In both 2022 and 2021, the Company commuted reinsurance treaties with non-affiliated reinsurers, which resulted in increases in the Company’s pre-tax earnings of less than $1 million. No treaties with non-affiliated reinsurers were commuted in 2020.

17. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

 

 

Recent U.S. Tax Law Changes

 

 

On November 15, 2021, the U.S. enacted the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to improve infrastructure in the U.S. The tax provisions for the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act have not had and are currently not expected to have a material impact on our U.S. federal tax liabilities.

On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which finances climate and energy provisions and an extension of enhanced subsidies under the Affordable Care Act with a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) on adjusted financial statement income for corporations with profits over $1 billion, a 1% stock buyback tax, increased IRS enforcement funding, and Medicare’s new ability to negotiate prescription drug prices. The Company has not determined as of the reporting date if it will be subject to the CAMT in 2023. The 2022 financial statements do not include the estimated impact of the CAMT, because a reasonable estimate cannot be made.

The following table presents the components of the net deferred tax assets and liabilities:

In general, realization of DTAs depends on a company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character within the carryforward periods in the jurisdictions in which the net operating losses and deductible temporary differences were incurred. In accordance with the requirements established in SSAP 101, the Company assessed its ability to realize DTAs of $876 million and concluded that $29 million valuation allowance was required at December 31, 2022. The Company had concluded that no valuation allowance was required on the DTAs of $759 million at December 31, 2021.

The Company had no deposits admitted under Internal Revenue Code Section 6603.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the total amounts of gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties:

At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective tax rate were less than 1 million, for both years.

Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in income tax expenses. At both December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had accrued less than $1 million for the payment of interest (net of federal benefit) and penalties. In 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized an expense of less than $1 million, net of federal benefit, and penalties.

The Company regularly evaluates proposed adjustments by taxing authorities. At December 31, 2022, such proposed adjustments would not have resulted in a material change to the Company’s financial condition, although it is possible that the effect could be material to the Company’s results of operations for an individual reporting period. Although it is reasonably possible that a change in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months, based on the information currently available, the Company does not expect any change to be material to its financial condition.

The Company is currently under Internal Revenue Service (IRS) examinations for the taxable years and engaging in the IRS Appeals process in regard to years 2011-2019. Although the final outcome of possible issues raised in any future examination are uncertain, the Company believes that the ultimate liability, including interest, will not materially exceed amounts recorded in the financial statements. The Company’s taxable years 2007-2021 remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.

The Company is not subject to the repatriation transition tax for the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the period prior to the tax deconsolidation of Corebridge from AIG, the Company will join in the filing of a consolidated federal income tax return with AIG.

For the period following the tax deconsolidation of Corebridge from AIG, the Company will join with AGC Life, AGL, AIGB, and VALIC, in filing a consolidated life company federal income tax return.

The Company has written agreements with both parent entities, AIG and AGC Life under which each subsidiary agrees to pay the parent company an amount equal to the consolidated federal income tax expense multiplied by the ratio that the subsidiary’s separate return tax liability bears to the consolidated tax liability, plus one hundred percent of the excess of the subsidiary’s separate return tax liability over the allocated consolidated tax liability. Both, AIG and AGC Life, agree to pay each subsidiary for the tax benefits, if any, of net operating losses, net capital losses and tax credits which are not usable by the subsidiary but which are used by other members of the consolidated group.

18. CAPITAL AND SURPLUS

 

 

RBC standards are designed to measure the adequacy of an insurer’s statutory capital and surplus in relation to the risks inherent in its business. The RBC standards consist of formulas that establish capital requirements relating to asset, insurance, business and interest rate risks. The standards are intended to help identify companies that are under-capitalized, and require specific regulatory actions in the event an insurer’s RBC is deficient. The RBC formula develops a risk-adjusted target level of adjusted statutory capital and surplus by applying certain factors to various asset, premium and reserve items. Higher factors are applied to more risky items and lower factors are applied to less risky items. Thus, the target level of statutory surplus varies not only because of the insurer’s size, but also on the risk profile of the insurer’s operations. At December 31, 2022, the Company exceeded RBC requirements that would require any regulatory action.

The Company is subject to New York State Business Corporation Law, which imposes restrictions on shareholder dividends. The maximum amount of dividends that can be paid by the Company without prior approval of the NYDFS in a calendar year is set forth in New York Insurance Law. With respect to 2023, the maximum amount of dividends that can be paid by us to the Parent without prior approval of the NYDFS is the lesser of: (1) 10 percent of the Company’s statutory surplus as regards policyholders as of the immediately preceding calendar year; or (2) statutory net gain from

operations for the immediately preceding calendar year, not including realized capital gains. Subject to the foregoing limitations discussed above, no dividends can be paid to the Parent in the year 2023 without consent of the NYDFS.

Dividends are paid as determined by the Board of Directors and are noncumulative. The following table presents the dividends paid by the Company during 2022, 2021 and 2020:

19. RETIREMENT AND SHARE-BASED AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION

 

 

The Company does not directly sponsor any defined benefit or defined contribution plans and does not participate in any multi-employer plans.

Employee Retirement Plan

 

 

Certain Corebridge employees participate in various AIG sponsored defined benefit pension and postretirement plans. AIG, as sponsor, is ultimately responsible for the maintenance of these plans in compliance with applicable laws. The Company is not directly liable for obligations under these plans; its obligation results from an allocation of the Company’s share of expenses from the plans based on participants’ earnings for the pension plans and on estimated claims less contributions from participants for the postretirement plans.

The following table presents information about employee-related costs (expense credits) allocated to the Company:

Defined Contribution Plan

 

 

Prior to August 22, 2022, Corebridge employees participated in AIG’s qualified defined contribution plan that provided for contributions by employees, as well as an employer contribution. On August 22, 2022, participants’ accounts in the AIG plan were transferred to the Corebridge Financial Inc. Retirement Savings 401(k) Plan.

The 401(k) plan provides pre-tax salary reduction contributions by its U.S. employees. Employer matching contributions of 100 percent were made on of the first six percent of participant contributions, subject to IRS-imposed limitations, and an additional fully vested, non-elective, non-discretionary employer contribution equal to three percent of the participant’s annual base compensation for the plan year, paid each pay period regardless of whether the participant currently contributes to the plan, and subject to the IRS-imposed limitations.

The Company’s pre-tax expense associated with this plan was $3 million, $3 million and $3 million in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Share-based and Deferred Compensation Plans

 

 

Prior to the IPO, certain Corebridge employees received grants of equity awards under the AIG Long Term Incentive Plan (as amended) and its predecessor plan, the AIG 2013 Long Term Incentive Plan (each as applicable, the “LTIP”), which are governed by the AIG 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Omnibus Plan”). The value of AIG equity awards are linked to the performance of AIG’s common stock. AIG granted equity awards to our employees primarily in the form of

 

 
57


Table of Contents

THE UNITED STATES LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK

NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

AIG restricted stock units (“RSUs”) but also granted AIG performance share units (“PSUs”) and AIG stock options to certain executives.

AIG RSUs and AIG stock options granted to Corebridge employees by AIG will be earned based solely on continued service by the participant while AIG PSUs will be earned based on both continued service and AIG achieving specified performance goals at the end of a three year performance period. These performance goals were pre-established by AIG’s Compensation and Management Resources Committee (“CMRC”) for each annual grant. The actual number of PSUs earned can vary from zero to 200% of the amount granted.vesting occurs on January 1 of the year immediately following the end of the three-year performance period.

Prior to 2021, LTI awards accrued dividend equivalent units (“DEUs”) in the form of additional PSUs and/or RSUs whenever a cash dividend is declared on shares of AIG Common Stock; the DEUs were subject to the same vesting terms and conditions as the underlying unit. Beginning in 2021, PSUs and RSUs granted via the annual 2021 LTI award (as of the date of grant), and those existing from the 2020 LTI awards (as of the third quarter) accrue dividend equivalent rights (DERs) as AIG’s dividends are declared. These DERs will be settled in cash only if the underlying units’ vesting conditions are met; previously accrued DEUs were not impacted by this change.

The fair value of AIG RSUs and AIG PSUs that are earned solely based on certain AIG-specific metrics was based on the closing price of AIG Common Stock on the grant date; while the fair value of AIG PSUs that are earned based on AIG’s relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) was determined on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value of AIG stock options was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes model.

On September 6, 2022, Corebridge adopted the Corebridge Financial, Inc. 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”) and the Corebridge Financial, Inc. Long-term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP,” together with the 2022 Plan, the “Corebridge Plans”). Following the IPO, equity awards may be granted under the Corebridge Plans to current employees or directors of the Company or, solely with respect to their final year of service, former employees.

Equity awards under the Corebridge Plans are linked to Corebridge common stock (“CRBG Stock”). A total of 40,000,000 shares of CRBG Stock are authorized for delivery pursuant to awards granted or assumed under the Plans. Delivered shares may be newly-issued shares or shares held in treasury.

All AIG RSUs that were held by active Corebridge employees on September 14, 2022 (the pricing date for the IPO) were converted into RSUs linked to the performance of CRBG Stock (“Corebridge RSUs”), on terms and conditions that are substantially the same as the corresponding AIG RSUs, with the number of AIG RSUs adjusted in a manner intended to preserve their intrinsic value as of immediately before and immediately following the conversion (subject to rounding). Specifically, the AIG RSUs were converted to Corebridge RSUs based on a conversion factor of 2.580952. The conversion factor was determined by the AIG closing stock price on September 14 ($54.20) divided by the public offering price for CRBG Stock in the IPO ($21.00).

The Company receives an allocation for these expenses. The Company recognized compensation expenses of $3 million, $3 million and $2 million for the years ending December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, on the date of grant of which all was recharged to related parties.

20. DEBT

 

 

The Company is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Dallas.

Membership with the FHLB provides the Company with collateralized borrowing opportunities, primarily as an additional source of liquidity or for other uses deemed appropriate by management. The Company’s ownership in the FHLB stock is reported as common stock. Pursuant to the membership terms, the Company elected to pledge such stock to the FHLB as collateral for the Company’s obligations under agreements entered into with the FHLB.

Cash advances obtained from the FHLB are reported in and accounted for as borrowed money. The Company may periodically obtain cash advances on a same-day basis, up to a limit determined by management and applicable laws. The Company is required to pledge certain mortgage-backed securities, government and agency securities and other qualifying assets to secure advances obtained from the FHLB. To provide adequate collateral for potential advances, the Company has pledged securities to the FHLB in excess of outstanding borrowings. Upon any event of default by the Company, the recovery by the FHLB would generally be limited to the amount of the Company’s liability under advances borrowed.

Commitments

 

 

The Company had commitments to provide funding to various limited partnerships totaling $669 million and $627 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The commitments to invest in limited partnerships and other funds may be called at the discretion of each fund, as needed and subject to the provisions of such fund’s governing documents, for funding new investments, follow-on investments and/or fees and other expenses of the fund. Of the total commitments at December 31, 2022, $245 million are currently expected to expire in 2023, and the remainder by 2027

 

 
59

NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

based on the expected life cycle of the related funds and the Company’s historical funding trends for such commitments.

At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had $612 million and $391 million, respectively, of outstanding commitments related to various funding obligations associated with its investments in commercial mortgage loans. Of the total current commitments, $97 million are expected to expire in 2023 and the remainder by 2036, based on the expected life cycle of the related loans and the Company’s historical funding trends for such commitments.

The Company has various leases, substantially all of which are for office space and facilities. Rentals under financing leases, contingent rentals, future minimum rental commitments, and rental expense under operating leases are not material.

Contingencies

 

 

Legal Matters

 

 

Various lawsuits against the Company have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes it is unlikely that contingent liabilities arising from such lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Regulatory Matters

 

 

All fifty states and the District of Columbia have laws requiring solvent life insurance companies, through participation in guaranty associations, to pay assessments to protect the interests of policyholders of insolvent life insurance companies. These state insurance guaranty associations generally levy assessments, up to prescribed limits, on member insurers in a particular state based on the proportionate share of the premiums written by member insurers in the lines of business in which the impaired, insolvent or failed insurer is engaged. Such assessments are used to pay certain contractual insurance benefits owed pursuant to insurance policies issued by impaired, insolvent or failed insurers. Some states permit member insurers to recover assessments paid through full or partial premium tax offsets. The Company accrues liabilities for guaranty fund assessments when an assessment is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company estimates the liability using the latest information available from the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations. While the Company cannot predict the amount and timing of any future guaranty fund assessments, the Company has established reserves it believes are adequate for assessments relating to insurance companies that are currently subject to insolvency proceedings.

The Company accrued $2 million at both December 31, 2022 and 2021, for these guarantee fund assessments. The Company has recorded receivables of $476 thousand and $1 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, for expected recoveries against the payment of future premium taxes.

During 2022 and 2021, the Company wrote accident and health insurance premiums that were subject to the risk-sharing provisions of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). However, the Company had no balances for the risk corridors program due to exclusion from the program. There was no financial impact of risk-sharing provisions on assets, liabilities or operations, related to the Permanent ACA Risk Adjustment Program. In addition, there was no financial impact of risk-sharing provisions on assets and liabilities related to the Transitional ACA Reinsurance Program. Under this program, the Company has recorded an insignificant amount in reinsurance recoveries due to ACA Reinsurance payments.

Various federal, state or other regulatory agencies may from time to time review, examine or inquire into the operations, practices and procedures of the Company, such as through financial examinations, subpoenas, investigations, market conduct exams or other regulatory inquiries. Based on the current status of pending regulatory examinations, investigations, and inquiries involving the Company, the Company believes it is not likely that these regulatory examinations or inquiries will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Standard of Care Development

 

 

The Company provides products and services to certain employee benefit plans that are subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Code. Plans subject to ERISA include certain pension and profit-sharing plans and welfare plans, including health, life and disability plans. As a result, our activities are subject to the restrictions imposed by ERISA and the Code, including the requirement under ERISA that fiduciaries must perform their duties solely in the interests of ERISA plan participants and beneficiaries, and that fiduciaries may not cause a covered plan to engage in certain prohibited transactions. The applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code are subject to enforcement by the DOL, the IRS and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.

The Company and our distributors are subject to laws and regulations regarding the standard of care applicable to sales of our products and the provision of advice to our customers. In recent years, many of these laws and regulations have been revised or reexamined while others have been newly adopted. We closely monitor these legislative and regulatory activities and evaluate the impact of these requirements on us and our customers, distribution partners and financial advisers. Where needed, we have made significant investments to implement and enhance our tools, processes and procedures, to comply with the final rules and interpretations. These efforts and enhancements have resulted in increased compliance costs and may impact sales results and increase regulatory and litigation risk. Additional changes in standard of care requirements or new standards issued by governmental authorities, such as the DOL, the SEC, the NAIC or state regulators and/or legislators, have impacted, and may impact our businesses, results of operations and financial condition.

22. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

 

Events Related to AIG and Corebridge

 

 

Separation of Life and Retirement Business and Relationship with Blackstone

On September 19, 2022, Corebridge completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) in which AIG sold 80 million shares of Corebridge common stock to the public. As of December 31, 2022, AIG owns 77.7% of the outstanding common stock of Corebridge. AIG is a publicly-traded entity, listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE:AIG). The term “AIG” means AIG and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context refers to AIG only.

On November 2, 2021, Argon Holdco LLC (“Argon”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blackstone, Inc. (“Blackstone”), acquired a 9.9% equity stake in Corebridge and Corebridge entered into a long-term asset management relationship with Blackstone. Pursuant to the partnership, Corebridge initially transferred $50 billion of assets in their investment portfolio to Blackstone. As of December 31, 2022, the book value of the assets transferred to Blackstone was $48.9 billion. Further beginning in the fourth quarter of 2022, Corebridge transferred $2.1 billion to Blackstone and will transfer $2.1 billion each quarter for an aggregate of $92.5 billion by the third quarter of 2027.

Pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement that Corebridge entered into with AIG and Argon at the time of acquisition of Argon’s Corebridge equity stake, Argon may not sell its ownership interest in Corebridge subject to exceptions permitting Argon to sell 25%, 67% and 75% of its shares after the first, second and third anniversaries, respectively, of the IPO, with the transfer restrictions terminating in full on the fifth anniversary of the IPO. Also, until Argon no longer owns at least 50% of its initial investment in Corebridge, it will have the right to designate for nomination for election one member of the Corebridge board of directors.

Prior to the IPO, Corebridge and certain U.S. subsidiaries were included in the consolidated federal income tax return of AIG as well as certain state tax returns where AIG files on a combined or unitary basis. The provision for income taxes is calculated on a separate return basis. Following the IPO, AIG owns a less than 80% interest in Corebridge, resulting in tax deconsolidation of Corebridge from the AIG Consolidated Tax Group and in a small minority of state jurisdictions which follow federal consolidation rules, the most significant being Florida. In addition, under the applicable law, AGC and its directly owned life insurance subsidiaries (the “AGC Group”) will not be permitted to join in the filing of a U.S. consolidated federal income tax return with our other subsidiaries (collectively, the “Non-Life Group”) for the five-year waiting period. Instead, the AGC Group is expected to file separately as members of the AGC consolidated U.S. federal income tax return during the five-year waiting period. Following the five-year waiting period, the AGC Group is expected to join the U.S. consolidated federal income tax return with the Non-Life Group.

NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

On November 1, 2021, Corebridge declared a dividend payable to AIG in the amount of $8.3 billion. In connection with such dividend, Corebridge issued a promissory note to AIG in the amount of $8.3 billion. As of September 30, 2022, the promissory note to AIG has been paid in full.

On December 15, 2021, Corebridge and Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust (“BREIT”), a long-term, perpetual capital vehicle affiliated with Blackstone, completed the acquisition by BREIT of the Company’s interests in a U.S. affordable housing portfolio for $4.9 billion.

Investment Management Agreements with BlackRock

Under the BlackRock Agreements, Corebridge completed the transfer of the management of approximately $82.4 billion in book value of liquid fixed income and certain private placement assets in the aggregate to BlackRock as of December 31, 2022. In addition, liquid fixed income assets associated with Fortitude Re portfolio were separately transferred to BlackRock. The BlackRock Agreements provide Corebridge with access to market-leading capabilities, including portfolio management, research and tactical strategies in addition to a larger pool of investment professionals. Corebridge believes BlackRock’s scale and fee structure make BlackRock an excellent outsourcing partner for certain asset classes and will allow us to further optimize our investment management operating model while improving overall performance. The fees, terms and conditions of the BlackRock Agreements were extensively negotiated, and Corebridge believes them to be highly competitive with those available from other leading investment managers for a fixed income portfolio of comparable size. Further, BlackRock is responsible for its own overhead and operating expenses under the BlackRock Agreements, with the insurance company subsidiaries reimbursing reasonable and documented out-of-pocket third-party expenses.

With respect to other potential liabilities under the BlackRock Agreements, the insurance company subsidiaries have agreed to indemnify BlackRock for certain losses incurred in connection with the services provided by BlackRock pursuant to the BlackRock Agreements or resulting from the insurance company subsidiaries’ breach of the investment management agreements.

The investment management agreements contain detailed investment guidelines and reporting requirements. These agreements also contain reasonable and customary representations and warranties, standard of care, confidentiality and other provisions. The investment management agreements will continue unless terminated by either party on 45 days’ notice or by us immediately for cause. Corebridge will continue to be responsible for the overall investment portfolio, including decisions surrounding asset allocation, risk composition and investment strategy.

Fortitude Re

Fortitude Re was established during the first quarter of 2018 in a series of reinsurance transactions related to AIG’s run-off operations. Those reinsurance transactions were designed to consolidate most of AIG’s Insurance run-off lines into a single legal entity. As of December 31, 2022, approximately $29.0 billion of reserves from Corebridge Run-Off Lines and approximately $3.2 billion of reserves from AIG’s General Insurance Run-Off Lines related to business written by multiple wholly-owned AIG subsidiaries, had been ceded to Fortitude Re under these reinsurance transactions.

Of the Fortitude Re reinsurance agreements, the largest is the Amended and Restated Combination Coinsurance and Modified Coinsurance Agreement by and between Corebridge’s subsidiary, AGL and Fortitude Re. Under this treaty, approximately $22.1 billion of AGL reserves as of December 31, 2022 were ceded to Fortitude Re representing a mix of life and annuity risks. Fortitude Re provides 100 percent reinsurance of the ceded risks. AGL retains the risk of collection of any third party reinsurance covering the ceded business. At effectiveness of the treaty, an amount equal to the aggregate ceded reserves was deposited by AGL into a modified coinsurance account of AGL to secure the obligations of Fortitude Re. Fortitude Re receives or makes quarterly payments that represent the net gain or loss under the treaty for the relevant quarter, including any net investment gain or loss on the assets in the modified coinsurance account. In December 2022, the management of most of the public fixed income securities in the modified coinsurance account was transitioned to BlackRock. In accordance with the terms of the treaty, following the third anniversary of the June 2, 2020 closing of the sale of our majority interest in Fortitude Group Holdings, L.L.C., Fortitude Re has increased rights to direct the appointment of investment managers to manage the assets in the modified coinsurance account.

Following receipt of all regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other conditions, effective as of January 1, 2022, AIG sold to an affiliate of Fortitude Re all of the outstanding capital stock of two servicing companies that administer the Life and Retirement and General Insurance ceded business, and the ceding insurers entered into administrative services agreements pursuant to which AIG transferred administration of certain Life and Retirement and General Insurance ceded business to such companies.

Transfer of AIG Technologies, Inc and Eastgreen Inc.

In connection with the Reorganization, Corebridge and AIG entered into agreements under which Corebridge purchased AIG Technologies, Inc. (“AIGT”) and Eastgreen, Inc. (“Eastgreen”) from AIG affiliates on February 28, 2022 for total consideration of $107 million. AIGT provides data processing, technology and infrastructure services to Corebridge and AIG entities in the United States, including management of AIG hardware and networks. AIGT utilizes two data centers to provide its services. The real estate related to the two data centers is owned by Eastgreen. To the extent needed, AIGT will continue to provide services to AIG for a transition period.

COVID-19

We are continually assessing the impact on our business, operations and investments of COVID-19 and the resulting ongoing economic and societal disruption. These impacts initially included a global economic contraction, disruptions in financial markets, increased market volatility and declines in certain equity and other asset prices that had negative effects on our investments, our access to liquidity, our ability to generate new sales and the costs associated with claims. Further, significant legislative and regulatory activity has occurred at both the U.S. federal and state levels, as well as globally. We cannot predict what form future legal and regulatory responses to concerns about COVID-19 and related public health issues will take, or how such responses will impact our business.

The most significant impacts relating to COVID-19 have been the impact of interest rate, credit spreads and equity market levels on spread and fee income, and increased mortality. We are actively monitoring the mortality rates and the potential direct and indirect impacts that COVID-19 may have across our businesses. The last two quarters saw the fewest national fatalities since the start of the pandemic. Actual data related to cause of death is not always available for all claims paid, and such cause of death data does not always capture the existence of comorbid conditions. The regulatory approach to the pandemic and impact on the insurance industry is continuing to evolve and its ultimate impact remains uncertain.

We have a diverse investment portfolio with material exposures to various forms of credit risk. To date, there has been minimal impact on the value of the portfolio. At this point in time, uncertainty surrounding the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic makes the long-term financial impact difficult to quantify.

COVID-19 continued to have an impact in 2022. Circumstances resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to an increase in claims, may also impact utilization of benefits, lapses or surrenders of policies and payments of insurance premiums, all of which have impacted and could further impact the revenues and expenses associated with our products.

Affiliate Transactions

 

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company purchased $1.7 billion and sold $910 million of securities, at fair market value, from or to one or more of its affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

Operating Agreements

 

 

The Company has investments in a Liquidity Pool in which funds are managed by an affiliate, AIG Capital Management Corporation, in the amount of $62 million and $97 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These funds were reclassified in 2020 to cash equivalents from short-term investments per NAIC guidelines.

Pursuant to service and expense agreements, AIG, Corebridge and certain affiliates provide, or cause to be provided, services such as administrative, marketing, investment management, accounting, occupancy, and data processing services to the Company. The allocation of costs for services is based generally on estimated levels of usage, transactions or time incurred in providing the respective services. Generally, these agreements provide for the allocation of costs upon either the specific identification basis or a proportional cost allocation basis which management believes to be reasonable. In all cases, billed amounts pursuant to these agreements do not exceed the cost to AIG or the affiliate providing the service. The Company was charged $108 million, $103 million and $112 million under such agreements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and 2020, respectively.
