Current report
Our results of operations depend, in part, on the performance of our investment portfolio. We seek to hold a portfolio of investments in accordance with our investment policy, which is routinely reviewed by our Investment Committee.
Current report
Historically, our investment portfolio was primarily invested in cash and cash equivalents and fixed maturity securities. However, during the second quarter of 2024, we diversified our investment portfolio by opening positions in higher-yield fixed maturity securities and, to a lesser extent, equity securities. Our investments in marketable equity securities are carried on our balance sheet at fair market value and are subject to potential losses and declines in market value.
Current report
In recent years, interest rates were at or near historic lows; however, interest rates steadily rose throughout 2023 and into 2024. If interests rates decline, a low interest rate environment would place pressure on our net investment income, particularly as it relates to our equity securities and short-term investments, which, in turn, may adversely affect our operating results. Recent and future increases in interest rates could cause the values of our fixed income securities portfolios to decline, with the magnitude of the decline depending on the duration of securities included in our portfolio and the amount by which interest rates increase.
Current report
The value of our investment portfolio is subject to the risk that certain investments may default or become impaired due to deterioration in the financial condition of one or more issuers of the securities we hold, or due to deterioration in the financial condition of an insurer that guarantees an issuer's payments on such investments. Downgrades in the credit ratings of fixed maturity securities also have a significant negative effect on the market value of such securities.
Current report
Each of the foregoing factors could reduce our net investment income and result in realized investment losses. Risks for all types of securities are managed through the application of our investment policy, which establishes investment parameters that include, but are not limited to, maximum percentages of investment in certain types of securities and minimum levels of credit quality. We cannot be certain that our investment objectives will be achieved, and results may vary substantially over time. In addition, although we seek to employ investment strategies that are not correlated with our insurance and reinsurance exposures, losses in our investment portfolio may occur at the same time as underwriting losses and, therefore, exacerbate the adverse effect of the losses on us.
