| Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Derivatives | Derivatives The Company uses derivatives as part of its financial risk management programs to mitigate price risk related to certain insurance contracts exposed to commodity price risk due to fluctuations in relevant market prices, including cattle and milk. To mitigate revenue volatility and support financial stability, the Company employs a hedging strategy that utilizes derivatives, specifically put options, as part of its risk management framework. The primary objective of holding these derivative instruments is to manage exposure to adverse price movements.

The Company does not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes. All derivative positions are intended to support the overall risk transfer objectives of the business. The Company has not elected hedge accounting for these derivatives.
