154、0%of the guaranteed cash value.E.Market Risk BenefitsLiabilities for market risk benefits consist of variable annuity reinsurance contracts in Other Operations.These liabilities arise under annuities and riders toannuities written by ceding companies that guarantee the benefit received at death and,
155、for a subset of policies,also provide contractholders the option,within 30days of a policy anniversary after the appropriate waiting period,to elect minimum income payments.The Companys capital market risk exposure on variableannuity reinsurance contracts arises when the reinsured guaranteed minimum
156、 benefit exceeds the contractholders account value in the related underlying mutualfunds at the time the insurance benefit is payable under the respective contract.The Company receives and pays premium periodically based on the terms of thereinsurance agreements.Market risk benefits activity was as

162、nd to permit recovery of aportion of incurred losses.Reinsurance is ceded primarily in acquisition and disposition transactions when the underwriting company is not being acquired.Reinsurance does not relieve the originating insurer of liability.Therefore,reinsured liabilities must continue to be re
163、ported along with the related reinsurancerecoverables.The Company regularly evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentrations of its credit risk.A.Reinsurance RecoverablesThe majority of the Companys reinsurance recoverables resulted from acquisition and disposition tra

172、reinsurance business via a reinsurance transaction in 2013.Variableannuity contracts are accounted for as assumed and ceded reinsurance and categorized as market risk benefits as discussed in Note 9 to the Consolidated FinancialStatements.Berkshire reinsured 100%of the Companys future cash flows in

206、nt Gains and LossesNet realized investment losses,before income taxes were$1,836 million for the three months ended March 31,2024 and$56 million for the three months endedMarch 31,2023.This increase was primarily driven by the impairment of equity securities in 2024.These amounts exclude realized ga
207、ins and losses attributed tothe Companys separate accounts because those gains and losses generally accrue directly to separate account policyholders.Note 12 Fair Value MeasurementsThe Company carries certain financial instruments at fair value in the financial statements including debt securities,c
208、ertain equity securities,short-term investmentsand derivatives.Other financial instruments are measured at fair value only under certain conditions,such as when impaired or when there are observable pricechanges for equity securities with no readily determinable fair value.Fair value is defined as t
209、he price at which an asset could be exchanged in an orderly transaction between market participants at the balance sheet date.A liabilitysfair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a market participant,not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability
210、 with thecreditor.The Companys financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value have been classified based upon a hierarchy defined by GAAP.The hierarchy gives the highestranking to fair values determined using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities(Lev
211、el 1)and the lowest ranking to fair valuesdetermined using methodologies and models with unobservable inputs(Level 3).An assets or a liabilitys classification is based on the lowest level of input that issignificant to its measurement.For example,a financial asset or liability carried at fair value
212、would be classified in Level 3 if unobservable inputs were significantto the instruments fair value,even though the measurement may be derived using inputs that are both observable(Levels 1 and 2)and unobservable(Level 3).23For a description of the policies,methods and assumptions that are used to e
213、stimate fair value and determine the fair value hierarchy for each class of financialinstruments,see Note 13 in the Companys 2023 Form 10-K.A.Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Carried at Fair ValueThe following table provides information about the Companys financial assets and liabilities c

263、sinesses held for sale and a decrease related to the release of tax reserves following a favorable state audit resolution.The368.4%effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31,2024 was higher than the 18.4%rate for the three months ended March 31,2023.As of March 31,2024,we had approximate
264、ly$664 million in deferred tax assets(DTAs)associated with the impairment of equity securities,as well as unrealizedinvestment losses that are partially recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss.A valuation allowance of$427 million,which drove the higher effective taxrate,was established in t
265、he three months ended March 31,2024,almost entirely related to the impairment of equity securities.For the remainder of the DTAs,wehave determined that a valuation allowance is not currently required based on the Companys ability to carry back losses and our ability and intent to hold certainsecurit
266、ies until recovery.We continue to monitor and evaluate the need for any additional valuation allowance.28Note 16 Contingencies and Other MattersThe Company,through its subsidiaries,is contingently liable for various guarantees provided in the ordinary course of business.A.Financial Guarantees:Retire
267、e and Life Insurance BenefitsThe Company guarantees that separate account assets will be sufficient to pay certain life insurance or retiree benefits.For the majority of these benefits,thesponsoring employers are primarily responsible for ensuring that assets are sufficient to pay these benefits and
268、 are required to maintain assets that exceed a certainpercentage of benefit obligations.If employers fail to do so,the Company or an affiliate of the buyer of the retirement benefits business has the right to redirect themanagement of the related assets to provide for benefit payments.As of March 31
269、,2024,employers maintained assets that generally exceeded the benefitobligations under these arrangements of approximately$410 million.An additional liability is established if management believes that the Company will berequired to make payments under the guarantees;there were no additional liabili
270、ties required for these guarantees,net of reinsurance,as of March 31,2024.Separate account assets supporting these guarantees are classified in Levels 1 and 2 of the GAAP fair value hierarchy.The Company does not expect that these financial guarantees will have a material effect on the Companys cons
271、olidated results of operations,liquidity or financialcondition.B.Certain Other GuaranteesThe Company had indemnification obligations as of March 31,2024 in connection with acquisition and disposition transactions.These indemnification obligationsare triggered by the breach of representations or cove
272、nants provided by the Company,such as representations for the presentation of financial statements,filing oftax returns,compliance with laws or regulations or identification of outstanding litigation.These obligations are typically subject to various time limitations,defined by the contract or by op
273、eration of law,such as statutes of limitation.In some cases,the maximum potential amount due is subject to contractual limitationsbased on a stated dollar amount or a percentage of the transaction purchase price,while in other cases limitations are not specified or applicable.The Company doesnot bel
274、ieve that it is possible to determine the maximum potential amount due under these obligations because not all amounts due under these indemnificationobligations are subject to limitation.There were no recorded liabilities for these indemnification obligations as of March 31,2024.C.Guaranty Fund Ass
275、essmentsThe Company operates in a regulatory environment that may require its participation in assessments under state insurance guaranty association laws.TheCompanys exposure to assessments for certain obligations of insolvent insurance companies to policyholders and claimants is based on its share
276、 of business writtenin the relevant jurisdictions.There were no material charges or credits resulting from existing or new guaranty fund assessments for the three months ended March 31,2024.D.Legal and Regulatory MattersThe Company is routinely involved in numerous claims,lawsuits,regulatory inquiri
277、es and audits,government investigations,including under the federal FalseClaims Act and state false claims acts initiated by a government investigating body or by a qui tam relators filing of a complaint under court seal,and other legalmatters arising,for the most part,in the ordinary course of mana
