- DefinitionLiabilities for insurance contracts that represent the present value of such benefits less the present value of future net premiums based on mortality, morbidity, interest and other assumptions at the time the policies were issued or acquired. Additionally, this represents liabilities for investment contracts and universal life policies, which equal the account value, that is, the amount that accrues to the benefit of the contract or policyholder including credited interest and assessments through the financial statement date. Finally, liabilities for unpaid claims and estimated claim settlement expenses represent our best estimate of the ultimate obligations for reported and incurred but not reported claims and the related estimated claim settlement expenses.
