Derivatives | 8. Derivatives The Company holds derivatives for both risk management and investment purposes. Foreign currency exchange rate derivatives The Company executes foreign currency forwards, swaps, and futures to manage foreign currency exposure. The foreign currency exchange rate derivatives are not designated or accounted for under hedge accounting. The fair value of the swaps and forwards are estimated using a single broker quote, and accordingly, are classified as a Level 3 measurement. The fair value of the futures is widely available and have quoted prices in active markets, and accordingly, were classified as a Level 1 measurement. As of June 30, 2025, the Company pledged no securities collateral associated with the foreign currency derivatives (December 31, 2024 - none). Securities pledged as collateral are included in debt securities, available for sale, in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Weather derivatives The Company holds assets and assumes liabilities related to weather and weather contingent risk management products. Weather and weather contingent derivative contracts are entered into with the objective of generating profits in normal climatic conditions. Accordingly, the Company’s weather and weather contingent derivatives are not designed to meet the criteria for hedge accounting under U.S. GAAP. The Company receives payment of premium at the contract inception in exchange for bearing the risk of variations in a quantifiable weather index. Management uses available market data and internal pricing models based upon consistent statistical methodologies to estimate the fair value. Because of the significance of the unobservable inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company's weather risk contracts, the fair value measurements of the contracts are deemed to be Level 3 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. The Company does not provide or hold any collateral associated with the weather derivatives. Credit default swap Credit default swaps protect the buyer against the loss of principal on one or more underlying bonds, loans, or mortgages in the event the issuer suffers a credit event. The Company provides its client with protection against financial non-performance of a subsidiary. The fair value of the swap is estimated using a single broker quote, and accordingly, is classified as a Level 3 measurement. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has $11.5 million pledged in securities collateral associated with the credit default swap (December 31, 2024 - $9.9 million). Securities pledged as collateral are included in debt securities, available for sale, in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
