Allowance for Credit Losses of Available-for-Sale Fixed-Maturity Securities

The Company regularly reviews its individual investment securities for credit impairment. The Company considers various factors in determining whether a credit loss exists for each individual security, including-

the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events that may affect its operations or earnings;
the extent to which the market value of the security has been below its cost or amortized cost;
general market conditions and industry or sector specific factors and other qualitative factors;
nonpayment by the issuer of its contractually obligated interest and principal payments; and
the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of costs.

The table below summarizes the activity in the allowance for credit losses of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:
