(1) Includes $(798) million relating to the sale of a non-strategic portfolio of insurance contracts for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2025.
(2) The liabilities for incurred claims relating to insurance contracts in our creditor and reinsurance business were $103 million as at July 31, 2026 and $105 million as at July 31, 2025.

Contractual service margin (CSM) from contracts issued was $32 million and $115 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026, respectively ($18 million and $49 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2025, respectively). Total CSM for insurance contracts issued and reinsurance contract held was $1,687 million and $338 million, respectively, as at July 31, 2026 ($1,528 million and $312 million, respectively, as at October 31, 2025). Onerous contract losses for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025 were not material.
We use the following rates for discounting fulfilment cash flows for our insurance contract liabilities, which are based on a risk-free yield adjusted for an illiquidity premium that reflects the liquidity characteristics of the liabilities:
