The Company believes that such securities were temporarily impaired at December 31, 2022.

The contractual maturities of the Company’s fixed maturities are shown in the following table. Expected maturities, which are management’s best estimates, will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

In applying the equity method, investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of the funds (which include changes in the fair value of the underlying securities in the funds). Such investments are generally recorded on a one to three month lag based on the availability of reports from the investment funds.
Equity in Net Income (Loss) of Investments Accounted For Using the Equity Method
The Company recorded equity in net income related to investments accounted for using the equity method of $115.9 million for 2022, compared to $366.4 million for 2021 and $146.7 million for 2020. In applying the equity method, investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of the funds (which include changes in the market value of the underlying securities in the funds).
A summary of financial information for the Company’s investment funds and operating affiliates accounted for using the equity method is as follows:

Net income (loss)$6,931,035 $8,547,343 $4,106,069 
Certain of the Company’s other investments and investments accounted for using the equity method are in investment funds for which the Company has the option to redeem at agreed upon values as described in each investment fund’s subscription agreement. Depending on the terms of the various subscription agreements, investments in investment funds may be redeemed daily, monthly, quarterly or on other terms. Two common redemption restrictions which may impact the Company’s ability to redeem these investment funds are gates and lockups. A gate is a suspension of redemptions which may be implemented by the general partner or investment manager of the fund in order to defer, in whole or in part, the redemption request in the event the aggregate amount of redemption requests exceeds a predetermined percentage of the investment fund's net assets which may otherwise hinder the general partner or investment manager's ability to liquidate holdings in an orderly fashion in order to generate the cash necessary to fund extraordinarily large redemption payouts. A lockup period is the initial amount of time an investor is contractually required to hold the security before having the ability to redeem. If the investment funds are eligible to be redeemed, the time to redeem such fund can take weeks or months following the notification.
Limited Partnership Interests
In the normal course of its activities, the Company invests in limited partnerships as part of its overall investment strategy. Such amounts are included in ‘investments accounted for using the equity method’ and ‘investments accounted for using the fair value option.’ The Company determined that these limited partnership interests represented variable interests in the funds. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss with respect to these investments is limited to the investment carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and any unfunded commitment.
The following table summarizes investments in limited partnership interests where the Company has a variable interest by balance sheet item:

(2)    Aggregate unfunded commitments were $16.7 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $18.8 million at December 31, 2021.

Investments in Operating Affiliates
Investments in which the Company has significant influence over the operating and financial policies are classified as ‘investments in operating affiliates’ on the Company’s balance sheets and are accounted for under the equity method. Such investments primarily include the Company’s investment in Coface SA (“Coface”), Greysbridge and Premia. Investments in Coface and Premia are generally recorded on a three month lag, while the Company’s investment in Greysbridge is not recorded on a lag.
In 2021, the Company completed the share purchase agreement with Natixis to purchase 29.5% of the common
equity of Coface, a France-based leader in the global trade credit insurance market. The consideration paid was €9.95 per share, or an aggregate €453 million (approximately $546 million) including related fees. Income (loss) from operating affiliates reflected a one-time gain of $74.5 million realized from the acquisition. As a result of equity method accounting rules, approximately $36 million of additional gain was deferred and will generally be recognized over the next five years. As of December 31, 2022, the Company owned approximately 29.9% of the issued shares of Coface, or 30.1% excluding treasury shares, with a carrying value of $562.9 million, compared to $630.5 million at December 31, 2021.
In July 2021, the Company announced the completion of the previously disclosed acquisition of Somers by Greysbridge for a cash purchase price of $35.00 per common share.

Effective July 1, 2021, Somers is wholly owned by Greysbridge, and Greysbridge is owned 40% by the Company, 30% by certain investment funds managed by Kelso and 30% by certain investment funds managed by Warburg. At December 31, 2022 the Company’s carrying value in Greysbridge was $305.6 million, compared to $375.7 million at December 31, 2021. The Company’s carrying value in Greysbridge at December 31, 2021 reflected aggregate purchase price of $278.9 million along with income (loss) from operating affiliates, which included a one-time gain of $95.7 million recognized from the acquisition. In addition, the ‘net realized gains (losses)’ line on the Company’s consolidated statements of income included a $33.1 million loss as a result of deconsolidation of Somers in the Company’s financial statements following the close of the transaction. See note 12, “Variable Interest Entity and Noncontrolling Interests.”

The Company recorded income from operating affiliates of $73.9 million for 2022, compared to income of $264.7 million for 2021 and $16.8 million for 2020.
