Corebridge | First Quarter 2025 Form 10-Q 73
Previous report
For example, on March 6, 2024, the SEC adopted final rules that require registrants, including Corebridge, to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. Numerous legal challenges were filed after the rule’s adoption, which lawsuits have been consolidated in the Eighth Circuit. On April 4, 2024, the SEC exercised its discretion to stay the final rules pending completion of judicial review in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. Corebridge is evaluating the potential impacts of these new requirements. On March 27, 2025, the SEC voted to end its defense of the final rules. However, if these requirements are implemented following completion of judicial review or otherwise, they may increase the complexity of Corebridge’s periodic reporting as a U.S. public company and are expected to result in additional compliance and reporting costs.

Previous wording
Our net income experiences ongoing volatility as a result of the reinsurance agreements, which, as described above, give rise to a funds withheld payable that contains an embedded derivative. However, this net income volatility is almost entirely offset with a corresponding change in OCI, which reflects the fair value change from the investment portfolio supporting the funds withheld payable, which is primarily available-for-sale securities, resulting in minimal impact to our comprehensive income (loss) and equity attributable to Corebridge. The Company has also elected the fair value option on the acquisition of certain new fixed maturity securities, helping reduce the mismatch over time. VALIC’s modco agreement with Fortitude Re was recaptured effective January 1, 2025, resulting in a $45 million charge to pre-tax earnings. As of March 31, 2025, $24.6 billion of reserves had been ceded to Fortitude Re.

In addition, on April 25, 2024, the Department of Labor (“DOL”) published a final rule in the Federal Register updating the definition for when a person is an “investment advice fiduciary” for purposes of transactions with ERISA qualified plans, related plan participants and IRAs. The DOL also published changes with respect to existing prohibited transactions exemptions (“PTEs”) relating to such advice, including PTE 84-24 and PTE 2020-02. Orders staying the rule’s September 23, 2024 effective date were issued by the U.S. District Courts for the Eastern District of Texas and the Northern District of Texas on July 25, 2024 and July 26, 2024, respectively, in connection with separate lawsuits challenging the rule. On December 20, 2024, DOL filed a consolidated opening brief, appealing these two orders to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Since filing this appeal, DOL has asked the Fifth Circuit to hold the case in abeyance on two occasions. The matter is currently stayed until June 16, 2025. We are actively monitoring the progress of the litigation while continuing to evaluate potential impact of the DOL rule to our business.

Previous wording
In March 2025, the NAIC exposed for comment proposed updates to actuarial guidelines intended to enhance asset adequacy analysis for asset-intensive, life insurance and annuity reinsurance treaties above certain thresholds. Specifically, the proposal would require the use of cash flow testing methodology in evaluating the adequacy of assets supporting ceded reserves. The updated actuarial guidelines will initially be designed as a testing and disclosure regime, but such disclosure could be used by regulators in their supervision of insurance companies. If approved, certain disclosure requirements are expected to be in effect for year-end 2025. In addition, the NAIC plans to review the disclosures following adoption of the guidelines to identify concerns with insurers’ approaches to asset adequacy testing, with the possibility of making additional changes that could lead to higher reserves for certain reinsurance agreements. We are actively monitoring developments associated with this NAIC initiative, which may be applicable to certain transactions that involve our life insurance subsidiaries acting as cedants.
Current wording
In March 2025, the NAIC exposed for comment and in June 2025 the Life Actuarial Task Force adopted updates to actuarial guidelines intended to enhance asset adequacy analysis for asset-intensive, life insurance and annuity reinsurance treaties above certain thresholds. The updated guidelines are still subject to vote by additional NAIC committees before being sent to the states for adoption. The updated guidelines require the use of cash flow testing methodology in evaluating the adequacy of assets supporting ceded reserves. The updated guidelines are designed as a testing and disclosure regime, but such disclosure could be used by regulators in their supervision of insurance companies. The Life Actuarial Task Force expects the first reinsurance asset testing reports to be due in April 2026. In addition, the NAIC plans to review the disclosures following adoption of the guidelines to identify concerns with insurers’ approaches to asset adequacy testing, with the possibility of making additional changes that could lead to higher reserves for certain reinsurance agreements.
