Shareholders Equity And Dividend Restrictions [Abstract]  
Shareholders' Equity And Dividend Restrictions Shareholders’ Equity and Dividend Restrictions
Declared cash dividends per share were $2.76, $2.52 and $2.40 for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Our lead insurance subsidiary, The Cincinnati Insurance Company, paid dividends to the parent company of $729 million, $583 million and $550 million in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. State regulatory requirements restrict the dividends insurance subsidiaries can pay. Generally, the most our lead insurance subsidiary can pay without prior regulatory approval is the greater of 10% of statutory capital and surplus or 100% 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 2023, the total that our lead insurance subsidiary may pay in dividends is approximately $651 million.

Dividend payments from Cincinnati Global to the parent company are subject to regulation by U.K. law. Cincinnati Global paid no dividends to the parent company in 2022, 2021 or 2020.
