Shareholders Equity And Dividend Restrictions [Abstract]  
Shareholders' Equity And Dividend Restrictions
Shareholders’ Equity and Dividend Restrictions
Declared cash dividends per share were $2.30, $1.76 and $1.655 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Our insurance subsidiary declared dividends to the parent company of $447 million in 2015, $400 million in 2014 and $375 million in 2013. State regulatory requirements restrict the dividends insurance subsidiaries can pay. Dividends must be paid within 30 days of declaration. Generally, the most our insurance subsidiary can pay without prior regulatory approval is the greater of 10 percent of statutory capital and surplus or 100 percent of statutory net income for the prior calendar year. Dividends exceeding these limitations may be paid only with approval of the insurance department of the domiciliary state. During 2016, the total that our insurance subsidiary, which is the parent of all other insurance subsidiaries, may declare in dividends is approximately $534 million.
