Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Schedule of Derivative Instruments
The table below provides a summary of the gross notional amount and fair value of derivative contracts by the primary underlying risks they are utilized to manage, excluding embedded derivatives. Many derivative instruments contain multiple underlying risks. The fair value amounts below represent the value of derivative contracts prior to taking into account the netting effects of master netting agreements and cash collateral. These netting impacts resulted in total derivative assets of $1,462 million and $1,671 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and total derivative liabilities of $6,401 million and $6,215 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, reflected in the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.
