1 Reconciling items primarily include embedded derivatives in indexed annuities, unaccreted host contract adjustments on indexed annuities, negative VOBA, sales inducement liabilities, and wholly ceded universal life insurance contracts.
The following is a reconciliation of future policy benefits to the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

Future policy benefits$45,166 $49,006 
1 Reconciling items primarily include the deferred profit liability and negative VOBA associated with the liability for future policy benefits. Additionally, it includes term life reserves, fully ceded whole life reserves, and reserves for immaterial lines of business including accident and health and disability, as well as other insurance benefit reserves for no-lapse guarantees with universal life contracts, all of which are fully ceded.
Policyholder Account Balance, Guaranteed Minimum Crediting Rate
The following represents policyholder account balances by range of guaranteed minimum crediting rates (GMCR), as well as the related range of the difference between rates being credited to policyholders and the respective guaranteed minimums. Our funding agreements and other investment-type products provide us with little to no discretionary ability to change the rates of interest payable to the respective policyholder or institution and, as a result, those policyholder account balances are excluded from the following tables.
