Net investment gains (losses) for the year ended December 31, 2022 in the table above included an $18 million net gain related to the novation of a coinsurance agreement on the Company’s legacy annuity business, which was transacted on a funds withheld basis and gave rise to an embedded derivative. The net gain of $18 million was comprised of a $62 million gain on the associated embedded derivative partially offset by a $44 million loss on fixed maturity securities supporting the funds withheld liability, transferred with the novation, to recognize unrealized losses which had been included in AOCI since the inception of the coinsurance agreement. Taken together, this net gain was the final recognition of changes in the valuation of the funds held assets and offset previously recognized net investment losses on the associated embedded derivative. The coinsurance agreement was novated in the fourth quarter of 2022.
The available-for-sale impairment losses (gains) recognized in earnings by asset type are presented in the following table. The table includes losses (gains) on securities with an intention to sell and changes in the allowance for credit losses on securities since acquisition date.

Based on current facts and circumstances, the Company believes the unrealized losses presented in the December 31, 2023 securities in a gross unrealized loss position tables above are not indicative of the ultimate collectability of the current amortized cost of the securities, but rather are primarily attributable to changes in risk-free interest rates. In reaching this determination, the Company considered the volatility in risk-free rates and credit spreads as well as the fact that its unrealized losses are concentrated in investment grade issuers. Additionally, the Company has no current intent to sell securities with unrealized losses, nor is it more likely than not that it will be required to sell prior to recovery of amortized cost; accordingly, the Company has determined that there are no additional impairment losses to be recorded as of December 31, 2023.
The following tables present the activity related to the allowance on available-for-sale securities with credit impairments and purchased credit-deteriorated (PCD) assets. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale fixed maturity securities totaled $435 million and $394 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and is excluded from the estimate of expected credit losses and the amortized cost basis in the table included within this Note.

Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because certain securities may be called or prepaid. Securities not due at a single date are allocated based on weighted average life.
Limited Partnerships
The carrying value of limited partnerships as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $2,174 million and $1,926 million, which includes net undistributed earnings of $250 million and $176 million. Limited partnerships comprising 17% of the total carrying value are reported on a current basis through December 31, 2023 with no reporting lag, 4% are reported on a one month lag and the remainder are reported on more than a one month lag. The number of limited partnerships held and the strategies employed provide diversification to the limited partnership portfolio and the overall invested asset portfolio.
Limited partnerships comprising 85% and 76% of the carrying value as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were invested in private debt and equity. Limited partnerships comprising 15% and 24% of the carrying value as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 employ hedge fund strategies. Private debt and equity funds cover a broad range of investment strategies including buyout, co-investment, private credit, growth capital, distressed investing and real estate. Hedge fund strategies include both long and short positions in fixed income, equity and derivative instruments.
The ten largest limited partnership positions held totaled $622 million and $633 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. Based on the most recent information available regarding the Company’s percentage ownership of the individual limited partnerships, the carrying value reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets represents approximately 1% of the aggregate partnership equity as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related income reflected on the Consolidated Statements of Operations represents approximately 1%, 2% and 2% of the changes in aggregate partnership equity for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.
There are risks inherent in limited partnership investments which may result in losses due to short-selling, derivatives or other speculative investment practices. The use of leverage increases volatility generated by the underlying investment strategies.
The Company’s private debt, private equity and other non-hedge fund limited partnership investments generally do not permit voluntary withdrawals. The Company’s hedge fund limited partnership investments contain withdrawal provisions that generally limit liquidity for a period of thirty days up to one year or longer. Typically, hedge fund withdrawals require advance written notice of up to 90 days.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company may use derivatives in the normal course of business, primarily in an attempt to reduce its exposure to market risk (principally interest rate risk and foreign currency risk) stemming from various assets and liabilities. The Company's principal objective under such strategies is to achieve the desired reduction in economic risk, even if the position does not receive hedge accounting treatment.
The Company may enter into interest rate swaps, futures and forward commitments to purchase securities to manage interest rate risk. The Company may use foreign currency forward contracts to manage foreign currency risk.
Credit exposure associated with non-performance by the counterparties to derivative instruments is generally limited to the uncollateralized fair value of the asset related to the instruments recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company generally requires that all over-the-counter derivative contracts be governed by an International Swaps and Derivatives Association Master Agreement, and exchanges collateral under the terms of these agreements with its derivative investment counterparties depending on the amount of the exposure and the credit rating of the counterparty. Gross estimated fair values of derivative positions are presented in Other invested assets and Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company does not offset derivative positions against the fair value of collateral provided or positions subject to netting arrangements. There would be no significant difference in the balance included in such accounts if the estimated fair values were presented net as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
There was less than $1 million of cash collateral provided by the Company and no cash collateral received from counterparties as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company held an embedded derivative on a funds withheld liability related to a coinsurance agreement on its legacy annuity business. The Company novated the coinsurance agreement during 2022 resulting in the transfer of $224 million of fixed maturity securities, $4 million of short-term investments and $2 million of accrued investment income in settlement of the $216 million funds withheld liability and associated $14 million embedded derivative.
Investment Commitments
As part of its overall investment strategy, the Company invests in various assets which require future purchase, sale or funding commitments. These investments are recorded once funded, and the related commitments may include future capital calls from various third-party limited partnerships, signed and accepted mortgage loan applications, and obligations related to private placement securities. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had commitments to purchase or fund approximately $1,555 million and sell approximately $35 million under the terms of these investments.
Investments on Deposit
Cash and securities with carrying values of approximately $3.1 billion and $2.8 billion were deposited by the Company’s insurance subsidiaries under requirements of regulatory authorities and others as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Cash and securities with carrying values of approximately $0.9 billion were deposited with financial institutions in trust accounts or as collateral for letters of credit to secure obligations with various third parties as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Mortgage Loans
The following table presents the amortized cost basis of mortgage loans for each credit quality indicator by year of origination. The primary credit quality indicators utilized are debt service coverage ratios (DSCR) and loan-to-value ratios (LTV).
