Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Arch Capital Group Ltd.


Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Arch Capital Group Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2021, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, and changes in shareholders’ equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “interim financial statements”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2020, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 26, 2021, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.     i Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
General
Arch Capital Group Ltd. (“Arch Capital”) is a public listed Bermuda exempted company which provides insurance, reinsurance and mortgage insurance on a worldwide basis through its wholly-owned subsidiaries. As used herein, the “Company” means Arch Capital and its subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s consolidated financial statements included the results of Watford Holdings Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (“Watford”). Watford is a multi-line Bermuda reinsurance company. Watford’s own management and board of directors are responsible for its results and profitability. See note 11.
Basis of Presentation
 i The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  i The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normally recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of results on an interim basis. The results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year or any future periods.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted; however, management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (“2020 Form 10-K”), including the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes.
 i The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior year information to conform to the current presentation, including the correct presentation of ‘income (loss) from operating affiliates’ on its consolidated statements of income for all periods presented to reclass such item from ‘other income (loss)’. The Company also changed its presentation of ‘investment in operating affiliates’ on its consolidated
balance sheet for all periods presented to reclass such item from ‘other assets’. Such reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s net income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity or cash flows. Management views the impact of the prior period misclassification as not material to the financial statements on a quantitative and qualitative basis. See note 7. Tabular amounts are in U.S. Dollars in thousands, except share amounts, unless otherwise noted.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 i 
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Adopted
The Company adopted ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This ASU eliminates certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod tax allocations and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The ASU also clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
For information regarding additional accounting standards that the Company has not yet adopted, see note 3(r), “Significant Accounting Policies—Recent Accounting Pronouncements,” of the notes to consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K.
2.     i Share Transactions
Share Repurchases 
The board of directors of Arch Capital has authorized the investment in Arch Capital’s common shares through a share repurchase program. Since the inception of the share repurchase program, Arch Capital has repurchased  i 402.3 million common shares for an aggregate purchase price of $ i 4.54 billion. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, Arch Capital repurchased  i 13.1 million shares under the share repurchase program with an aggregate purchase price of $ i 485.3 million. Arch Capital repurchased  i 2.6 million shares under the share repurchase program with an aggregate purchase price of $ i 75.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020. At June 30, 2021, $ i 431.2 million of share repurchases were available under the program, which may be effected from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions through December 31, 2021. The timing and amount of the repurchase transactions under this program will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions and corporate and regulatory considerations.
Series G Preferred Shares
In June 2021, Arch Capital completed a $ i 500 million underwritten public offering of  i 20.0 million depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), each of which represents a
ARCH CAPITAL

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1/1,000th interest in a share of its  i 4.550% Non-Cumulative Preferred Shares, Series G, $ i 0.01 par value and $ i 25,000 liquidation preference per share (equivalent to $ i 25 liquidation preference per Depositary Share) (the “Series G Preferred Shares”). Each Depositary Share, evidenced by a depositary receipt, entitles the holder, through the depositary, to a proportional fractional interest in all rights and preferences of the Series G Preferred Shares represented thereby (including any dividend, liquidation, redemption and voting rights).
Holders of Series G Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive dividend payments only when, as and if declared by the Company’s board of directors or a duly authorized committee of the board. Any such dividends will be payable from, and including, the date of original issue on a non-cumulative basis, quarterly in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, at an annual rate of  i 4.550%. Dividends on the Series G Preferred Shares are not cumulative. The Company will be restricted from paying dividends on or repurchasing its common shares unless certain dividend payments are made on the Series G Preferred Shares. The Company may not declare or pay a dividend on the Series G Preferred Shares under certain circumstances, including if the Company is or, after giving effect to such payment, would be in breach of applicable individual or group solvency and liquidity requirements or applicable individual or group enhanced capital requirements ("ECR.") The Series G Preferred Shares may not be
redeemed at any time if the ECR would be breached immediately before or after giving effect to such redemption, unless the Company replaces the capital represented by preference shares to be redeemed with capital having equal or better capital treatment.
Except in specified circumstances relating to certain tax or corporate events, the Series G Preferred Shares are not redeemable prior to June 11, 2026. On and after that date, the Series G Preferred Shares will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price of $ i 25,000 per share of the Series G Preferred Shares (equivalent to $ i 25 per depositary share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends to, but excluding, the redemption date. The Depositary Shares will be redeemed if and to the extent the related Series G Preferred Shares are redeemed by the Company. Neither the Depositary Shares nor the Series G Preferred Shares have a stated maturity, nor will they be subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption. The Series G Preferred Shares are not convertible into any other securities. The Series G Preferred Shares do not have voting rights, except under limited circumstances.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of approximately $ i 485.8 million to redeem all or a portion of its issued and outstanding Series E Non-Cumulative Preferred Shares in September 2021, and to use any remaining amounts for general corporate purposes.

4.     i Segment Information
The Company classifies its businesses into  i three underwriting segments — insurance, reinsurance and mortgage — and  i two other operating segments — ‘other’ and corporate (non-underwriting). The Company determined its reportable segments using the management approach described in accounting guidance regarding disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those used for the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Intersegment business is allocated to the segment accountable for the underwriting results.
The Company’s insurance, reinsurance and mortgage segments each have managers who are responsible for the overall profitability of their respective segments and who are directly accountable to the Company’s chief operating decision makers, the Chief Executive Officer of Arch Capital, the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of Arch Capital and the President and Chief Underwriting Officer of Arch Capital. The chief operating decision makers do not assess performance, measure return on equity or make resource allocation decisions on a line of business basis. Management measures segment performance for its three underwriting segments based on underwriting income or loss. The Company does not manage its assets by underwriting segment, with the exception of goodwill and intangible assets, and, accordingly, investment income is not allocated to each underwriting segment.
The insurance segment consists of the Company’s insurance underwriting units which offer specialty product lines on a worldwide basis. Product lines include: construction and national accounts; excess and surplus casualty; lenders products; professional lines; programs; property, energy, marine and aviation; travel, accident and health; and other (consisting of alternative markets, excess workers' compensation and surety business).
The reinsurance segment consists of the Company’s reinsurance underwriting units which offer specialty product lines on a worldwide basis. Product lines include: casualty; marine and aviation; other specialty; property catastrophe; property excluding property catastrophe (losses on a single risk, both excess of loss and pro rata); and other (consisting of life reinsurance, casualty clash and other).
The mortgage segment includes the Company’s U.S. and international mortgage insurance and reinsurance operations as well as government sponsored enterprise (“GSE”) credit-risk sharing transactions. Arch Mortgage Insurance Company and United Guaranty Residential Insurance Company (combined “Arch MI U.S.”) are approved as eligible mortgage insurers by Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), each a GSE. Arch MI U.S. also includes Arch Mortgage Guaranty Company, which is not a GSE-approved entity.
The corporate (non-underwriting) segment results include net investment income, other income (loss), corporate expenses, transaction costs and other, interest expense, items related to the Company’s non-cumulative preferred shares, net realized gains or losses (which includes changes in the allowance for credit losses on financial assets and net impairment losses recognized in earnings), equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net foreign exchange gains or losses, income or loss from operating affiliates and income taxes. Such amounts exclude the results of the ‘other’ segment.
The ‘other’ segment includes the results of Watford (see note 11). For the ‘other’ segment, performance is measured based on net income or loss.

Securities Lending Agreements
The Company enters into securities lending agreements with financial institutions to enhance investment income whereby it loans certain of its securities to third parties, primarily major brokerage firms, for short periods of time through a lending agent. The Company maintains legal control over the securities it lends (shown as ‘Securities pledged under securities lending, at fair value’ on the Company’s balance sheet), retains the earnings and cash flows associated with the loaned securities and receives a fee from the borrower for the temporary use of the securities. An indemnification agreement with the lending agent protects the Company in the event a borrower becomes insolvent or fails to return any of the securities on loan from the Company.
The Company receives collateral (shown as ‘Collateral received under securities lending, at fair value’ on the Company’s balance sheet) in the form of cash or U.S. government and government agency securities. At June 30, 2021, the fair value of the cash collateral received on securities lending was $ i 0.8 million and the fair value of security collateral received was $ i 171.3 million. At December 31, 2020, the fair value of the cash collateral received on securities lending was  i nil, and the fair value of security collateral received was $ i 301.1 million.

terms of the various subscription agreements, investments in investment funds may be redeemed daily, monthly, quarterly or on other terms. Two common redemption restrictions which may impact the Company’s ability to redeem these investment funds are gates and lockups. A gate is a suspension of redemptions which may be implemented by the general partner or investment manager of the fund in order to defer, in whole or in part, the redemption request in the event the aggregate amount of redemption requests exceeds a predetermined percentage of the investment fund’s net assets which may otherwise hinder the general partner or investment manager’s ability to liquidate holdings in an orderly fashion in order to generate the cash necessary to fund extraordinarily large redemption payouts. A lockup period is the initial amount of time an investor is contractually required to hold the security before having the ability to redeem. If the investment funds are eligible to be redeemed, the time to redeem such fund can take weeks or months following the notification.
Limited Partnership Interests
In the normal course of its activities, the Company invests in limited partnerships as part of its overall investment strategy. Such amounts are included in ‘investments accounted for using the equity method’ and ‘investments accounted for using the fair value option.’ The Company has determined that it is not required to consolidate these investments because it is not the primary beneficiary of the funds. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss with respect to these investments is limited to the investment carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and any unfunded commitment.

Equity in Net Income (Loss) of Investment Funds Accounted for Using the Equity Method
The Company recorded $ i 122.2 million of equity in net income related to investment funds accounted for using the equity method in the 2021 second quarter, compared to loss of $ i 65.1 million for the 2020 second quarter, and an income of $ i 193.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a loss of $ i 69.3 million for six months ended June 30, 2020. In applying the equity method, investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of the funds (which include changes in the market value of the underlying securities in the funds). Such investments are generally recorded on a one to three month lag based on the availability of reports from the investment funds.

Investments in Operating Affiliates

Investments in which the Company has significant influence over the operating and financial policies are classified as ‘investments in operating affiliates’ on the Company’s balance sheets and are accounted for under the equity method. Such investments primarily include the Company’s investment in Coface and Premia Holdings Ltd. (“Premia”) and are generally recorded on a three month lag.

In 2021, the Company completed the share purchase agreement with Natixis to purchase  i 29.5% of the common equity of Coface, a France-based leader in the global trade credit insurance market. The consideration paid was € i 9.95 per share, or an aggregate € i 453 million (approximately $ i 546 million) including related fees. Income (loss) from operating affiliates reflected a one-time gain of $ i 74.5 million realized from the acquisition. As a result of equity method accounting rules, approximately $ i 36 million of additional gain was deferred and will generally be recognized over the next  i five years. At June 30, 2021 the Company’s carrying value in Coface was $ i 601.9 million.

Income from operating affiliates for the 2021 second quarter was $ i 24.5 million, compared to a loss of $ i 3.2 million, for the 2020 second quarter, and income of $ i 99.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $ i 5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The income from operating affiliates for the 2021 period, primarily related to the Company’s recent acquisition of a  i 29.5% stake in Coface.

8.     i Fair Value
Accounting guidance regarding fair value measurements addresses how companies should measure fair value when they are required to use a fair value measure for recognition or disclosure purposes under GAAP and provides a common definition of fair value to be used throughout GAAP. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly fashion between market participants at the measurement date. In addition, it establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for the disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The level in the hierarchy within which a given fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement (Level 1 being the highest priority and Level 3 being the lowest priority).
The levels in the hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1:
Inputs to the valuation methodology are observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets
Level 2:
Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument
Level 3:
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for securities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such securities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. The Company reviews its securities measured at fair value and discusses the proper classification of such investments with investment advisers and others.
The Company determines the existence of an active market based on its judgment as to whether transactions for the financial instrument occur in such market with sufficient frequency and volume to provide reliable pricing information. The independent pricing sources obtain market quotations and actual transaction prices for securities that have quoted prices in active markets. The Company uses quoted values and other data provided by nationally recognized independent pricing sources as inputs into its process for determining fair values of its fixed maturity investments. To validate the techniques or models used by pricing sources, the Company's review process includes, but
is not limited to: (i) quantitative analysis (e.g., comparing the quarterly return for each managed portfolio to its target benchmark, with significant differences identified and investigated); (ii) a review of the average number of prices obtained in the pricing process and the range of resulting fair values; (iii) initial and ongoing evaluation of methodologies used by outside parties to calculate fair value; (iv) a comparison of the fair value estimates to the Company’s knowledge of the current market; (v) a comparison of the pricing services' fair values to other pricing services' fair values for the same investments; and (vi) periodic back-testing, which includes randomly selecting purchased or sold securities and comparing the executed prices to the fair value estimates from the pricing service. A price source hierarchy was maintained in order to determine which price source would be used (i.e., a price obtained from a pricing service with more seniority in the hierarchy will be used over a less senior one in all cases). The hierarchy prioritizes pricing services based on availability and reliability and assigns the highest priority to index providers. Based on the above review, the Company will challenge any prices for a security or portfolio which are considered not to be representative of fair value. The Company did not adjust any of the prices obtained from the independent pricing sources at June 30, 2021.
In certain circumstances, when fair values are unavailable from these independent pricing sources, quotes are obtained directly from broker-dealers who are active in the corresponding markets. Such quotes are subject to the validation procedures noted above. Where quotes are unavailable, fair value is determined by the Investment Manager using quantitative and qualitative assessments such as internally modeled values. Of the $ i 26.5 billion of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value at June 30, 2021, approximately $ i 187.6 million, or  i 0.7%, were priced using non-binding broker-dealer quotes or modeled valuations. Of the $ i 26.5 billion of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value at December 31, 2020, approximately $ i 150.1 million, or  i 0.6%, were priced using non-binding broker-dealer quotes or modeled valuations.
Fixed maturities
The Company uses the market approach valuation technique to estimate the fair value of its fixed maturity securities, when possible. The market approach includes obtaining prices from independent pricing services, such as index providers and pricing vendors, as well as to a lesser extent quotes from broker-dealers. The independent pricing sources obtain market quotations and actual transaction prices for securities that have quoted prices in active markets. Each source has its own proprietary method for determining the fair value of securities that are not actively traded. In general, these methods involve the use of “matrix pricing” in which the independent pricing source uses observable market inputs

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
including, but not limited to, investment yields, credit risks and spreads, benchmarking of like securities, broker-dealer quotes, reported trades and sector groupings to determine a reasonable fair value.
The following describes the significant inputs generally used to determine the fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity securities by asset class:
U.S. government and government agencies — valuations provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing vendors. The Company determined that all U.S. Treasuries would be classified as Level 1 securities due to observed levels of trading activity, the high number of strongly correlated pricing quotes received on U.S. Treasuries and other factors. The fair values of U.S. government agency securities are generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve. As the yields for the risk-free yield curve and the spreads for these securities are observable market inputs, the fair values of U.S. government agency securities are classified within Level 2.
Corporate bonds — valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors with a small amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for corporate bonds are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. A small number of securities are included in Level 3 due to a low level of transparency on the inputs used in the pricing process.
Mortgage-backed securities — valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through pricing vendors and index providers with a small amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined through the use of pricing models (including Option Adjusted Spread) which use spreads to determine the expected average life of the securities. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market. The pricing services also review prepayment speeds and other indicators, when applicable. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for mortgage-backed securities are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. A small number of securities are included in Level 3 due to a low level of transparency on the inputs used in the pricing process.
Municipal bonds — valuations provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided
through index providers and pricing vendors. The fair values of these securities are generally determined using spreads obtained from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market, trade prices and the new issue market. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for municipal bonds are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2.
Commercial mortgage-backed securities — valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors with a small amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined through the use of pricing models which use spreads to determine the appropriate average life of the securities. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market. The pricing services also review prepayment speeds and other indicators, when applicable. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for commercial mortgage-backed securities are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2.
Non-U.S. government securities — valuations provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing vendors. The fair values of these securities are generally based on international indices or valuation models which include daily observed yield curves, cross-currency basis index spreads and country credit spreads. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for non-U.S. government securities are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2.
Asset-backed securities — valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors with a small amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined through the use of pricing models (including Option Adjusted Spread) which use spreads to determine the appropriate average life of the securities. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market. The pricing services also review prepayment speeds and other indicators, when applicable. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for asset-backed securities are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2. A small number of securities are included in Level 3 due to a low level of transparency on the inputs used in the pricing process.
Equity securities
The Company determined that exchange-traded equity securities would be included in Level 1 as their fair values are based on quoted market prices in active markets. Certain

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
equity securities are included in Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy as the significant inputs used in the pricing process for such securities are observable market inputs. Other equity securities are included in Level 3 due to the lack of an available independent price source for such securities. As the significant inputs used to price these securities are unobservable, the fair value of such securities are classified as Level 3.
Other investments
The Company’s other investments include term loan investments for which fair values are estimated by using quoted prices of term loan investments with similar characteristics, pricing models or matrix pricing. Such investments are generally classified within Level 2. The fair values for certain of the Company’s other investments are determined using net asset values as advised by external fund managers. The net asset value is based on the fund manager’s valuation of the underlying holdings in accordance with the fund’s governing documents. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. A small number of securities are included in Level 3 due to the lack of an available independent price source for such securities.
Derivative instruments
The Company’s futures contracts, foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and other derivatives trade in the over-the-counter derivative market. The Company uses the market approach valuation technique to estimate the fair value for these derivatives based on significant observable market inputs from third party pricing vendors, non-binding broker-dealer quotes and/or recent trading activity. As the significant inputs used in the pricing process for these derivative instruments are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2.

Short-term investments
The Company determined that certain of its short-term investments held in highly liquid money market-type funds, Treasury bills and commercial paper would be included in Level 1 as their fair values are based on quoted market prices in active markets. The fair values of other short-term investments are generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve and are classified within Level 2.
Residential mortgage loans
The Company’s residential mortgage loans (included in ‘other assets’ in the consolidated balance sheets) include amounts related to the Company’s whole mortgage loan purchase and sell program. Fair values of residential mortgage loans are generally determined based on market prices. As significant inputs used in pricing process for these residential mortgage loans are observable market inputs, the fair value of these securities are classified within Level 2.
Contingent consideration liabilities
Contingent consideration liabilities (included in ‘other liabilities’ in the consolidated balance sheets) include amounts related to various Company’s acquisitions. Such amounts are remeasured at fair value at each balance sheet date with changes in fair value recognized in ‘net realized gains (losses).’ To determine the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, the Company estimates future payments using an income approach based on modeled inputs which include a weighted average cost of capital. The Company determined that contingent consideration liabilities would be included within Level 3.

Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, At Fair Value
The Company uses various financial instruments in the normal course of its business. The carrying values of cash, accrued investment income, receivable for securities sold, certain other assets, payable for securities purchased and certain other liabilities approximated their fair values at June 30, 2021, due to their respective short maturities. As these financial instruments are not actively traded, their respective fair values are classified within Level 2.
At June 30, 2021, the Company’s senior notes were carried at their cost, net of debt issuance costs, of $ i 2.9 billion and had a fair value of $ i 3.5 billion. At December 31, 2020, the Company’s senior notes were carried at their cost, net of debt issuance costs, of $ i 2.9 billion and had a fair value of $ i 3.7 billion. The fair values of the senior notes were obtained from a third party pricing service and are based on observable market inputs. As such, the fair values of the senior notes are classified within Level 2.
9.     i Derivative Instruments
The Company’s investment strategy allows for the use of derivative instruments. The Company’s derivative instruments are recorded on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company utilizes exchange traded U.S. Treasury note, Eurodollar and other futures contracts and commodity futures to manage portfolio duration or replicate investment positions in its portfolios and the Company routinely utilizes foreign currency forward contracts, currency options, index futures contracts and other derivatives as part of its total return objective. In addition, certain of the Company’s investments are managed in portfolios which incorporate the use of foreign currency forward contracts which are intended to provide an economic hedge against foreign currency movements. 
In addition, the Company purchases to-be-announced mortgage backed securities (“TBAs”) as part of its investment strategy. TBAs represent commitments to purchase a future issuance of agency mortgage backed securities. For the period between purchase of a TBA and issuance of the underlying security, the Company’s position is accounted for as a derivative. The Company purchases TBAs in both long and short positions to enhance investment performance and as part of its overall investment strategy.

 / 

The Company did not hold any derivatives which were designated as hedging instruments at June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.
The Company’s derivative instruments can be traded under master netting agreements, which establish terms that apply to all derivative transactions with a counterparty. In the event of a bankruptcy or other stipulated event of default, such agreements provide that the non-defaulting party may elect to terminate all outstanding derivative transactions, in which case all individual derivative positions (loss or gain) with a counterparty are closed out and netted and replaced with a single amount, usually referred to as the termination amount, which is expressed in a single currency. The resulting single net amount, where positive, is payable to the party “in-the-money” regardless of whether or not it is the defaulting party, unless the parties have agreed that only the non-defaulting party is entitled to receive a termination payment where the net amount is positive and is in its favor. Contractual close-out netting reduces derivatives credit exposure from gross to net exposure.
At June 30, 2021, asset derivatives and liability derivatives of $ i 89.9 million and $ i 66.7 million, respectively, were subject to a master netting agreement, compared to $ i 138.8 million and $ i 93.0 million, respectively, at December 31, 2020. The remaining derivatives included in the preceding table were not subject to a master netting agreement.
 i Realized and unrealized contract gains and losses on the Company’s derivative instruments are reflected in ‘net realized gains (losses)’ in the consolidated statements of income, as summarized in the following table:

Interest Paid
Interest paid on the Company’s senior notes and other borrowings were $ i 74.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $ i 57.4 million for the 2020 period.

Watford
In March 2014, the Company invested $ i 100.0 million and acquired  i 2,500,000 common shares, approximately  i 11% of Watford’s outstanding common equity. As of June 30, 2021, the Company owned approximately  i 10.2% of Watford’s outstanding common equity. The Company also owns $ i 35.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Watford Holdings Ltd’s  i 6.5% senior notes, due July 2, 2029 and approximately  i 6.6% of Watford’s preference shares.
Watford is considered a VIE and the Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary of Watford, through June 30, 2021. As such, the results of Watford are included in the
Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2021.
The Company does not guarantee or provide credit support for Watford, and the Company’s financial exposure to Watford is limited to its investment in Watford’s senior notes, common and preferred shares and counterparty credit risk (mitigated by collateral) arising from reinsurance transactions.
In the 2020 fourth quarter, Arch Capital, Watford Holdings Ltd. and Greysbridge Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Arch Capital, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, Arch Capital agreed to acquire all of the common shares of Watford Holdings Ltd. not owned by Arch for a cash purchase price of $ i 35.00 per common share. Arch Capital assigned its rights under the Merger Agreement to Greysbridge Holdings Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Arch Capital (“Greysbridge”). The merger and the related Greysbridge equity financing closed on July 1, 2021. Effective July 1, 2021, Watford is wholly owned by Greysbridge and Greysbridge is owned  i 40% by Arch Re Bermuda,  i 30% by certain investment funds managed by Kelso & Company and  i 30% by certain investment funds managed by Warburg Pincus LLC.

Bellemeade Re
The Company has entered into various aggregate excess of loss mortgage reinsurance agreements with various special purpose reinsurance companies domiciled in Bermuda (the “Bellemeade Agreements”). At the time the Bellemeade Agreements were entered into, the applicability of the accounting guidance that addresses VIEs was evaluated. As a result of the evaluation of the Bellemeade Agreements, the Company concluded that these entities are VIEs. However, given that the ceding insurers do not have the unilateral power to direct those activities that are significant to their economic performance, the Company does not consolidate such entities in its consolidated financial statements.
 i The following table presents the total assets of the Bellemeade entities, as well as the Company’s maximum exposure to loss associated with these VIEs, calculated as the maximum historical observable spread between the benchmark index for each respective transaction and short term invested trust asset yields. The benchmark index for agreements effective prior to 2021 is based on one-month LIBOR, while the 2021 agreements benchmark index is based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). SOFR is a measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight, collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, and is based on directly observable U.S. Treasury-backed repurchase transactions.

13.     i Income Taxes
The Company’s income tax provision on income before income taxes, including income (loss) from operating affiliates, resulted in an effective tax rate of  i 7.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to  i 12.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
The Company’s effective tax rate, which is based upon the expected annual effective tax rate, may fluctuate from period to period based on the relative mix of income or loss reported by jurisdiction and the varying tax rates in each jurisdiction.
The Company had a net deferred tax asset of $ i 93.0 million at June 30, 2021, compared to a net deferred tax asset of $ i 15.7 million at December 31, 2020. The change is primarily a result of mortgage contingency reserves activity and market value fluctuations in the investment portfolio. In addition, the Company paid $ i 141.1 million and $ i 10.4 million of income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
14.     i Legal Proceedings
The Company, in common with the insurance industry in general, is subject to litigation and arbitration in the normal course of its business. As of June 30, 2021, the Company was not a party to any litigation or arbitration which is expected by management to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition and liquidity.

15.     i Transactions with Related Parties
In the 2021 first quarter, as part of the Company’s acquisition of Barbican, the Company entered into an agreement with Premia Managing Agency Limited for the reinsurance to close of Syndicate 1955’s 2018 underwriting year of account into Premia Syndicate 1884’s 2021 underwriting year of account. The reinsurance to close covers legacy business underwritten by Syndicate 1955 on the underwriting 2018 and prior years of account and under the agreement, approximately $ i 380 million of net liabilities was transferred to Syndicate 1884, with an effective date of January 1, 2021. Barbican recorded reinsurance recoverable on unpaid and paid losses and funds held liability of  i nil and $ i 9.9 million, respectively, at June 30, 2021, compared to $ i 199.8 million and $ i 149.6 million, respectively, at December 31, 2020.
Certain directors and executive officers of the Company own common and preference shares of Watford. See note 11, “Variable Interest Entity and Noncontrolling Interests,” for information about Watford.
16.     i Subsequent Event
In July 2021, the Company announced the completion of the previously disclosed acquisition of Watford by Greysbridge. Based on the governing documents of Greysbridge the Company has concluded that, while it will retain significant influence over Watford, Watford will no longer constitute a variable interest entity of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, effective July 1, 2021, Arch will no longer consolidate the results of Watford in its consolidated financial statements and footnotes. As a result of the closing of the transaction, we expect to report a net gain of approximately $ i 65 million in the third quarter.

This should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this report and also our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (“2020 Form 10-K”). In addition, readers should review “Risk Factors” set forth in Item 1A of Part I of our 2020 Form 10-K and “ITEM 1A—Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q. Tabular amounts are in U.S. Dollars in thousands, except share amounts, unless otherwise noted.
Arch Capital Group Ltd. (“Arch Capital” and, together with its subsidiaries, “Arch”, “we” or “us”) is a publicly listed Bermuda exempted company with approximately $16.7 billion in capital at June 30, 2021 and, through operations in Bermuda, the United States, Europe, Canada, Australia and Hong Kong, writes insurance, reinsurance and mortgage insurance on a worldwide basis.
CURRENT OUTLOOK
Our three primary areas of focus for 2021 are to continue our growth in the sectors where rates allow for returns that are substantially more than our cost of capital, to optimize our mortgage insurance book as it transitions from forbearance to recovery on its way back to normalcy in the next few quarters, and to actively manage our investments and capital to enhance our returns over the long run.
From an operating perspective, the 2021 second quarter reflected the benefits of attractive pricing in almost all of our insurance markets. As a result, we currently expect the next several quarters to continue to show improved underwriting margins, partially due to the compounding of rate-on-rate increases and the rebalancing of our mix of business. Importantly, the market is showing discipline in maintaining its momentum. We believe that this time-tested strategy of protecting capital through soft markets and writing business aggressively in hard markets gives us the best chance to generate superior risk adjusted returns over time. As long as rate increases support returns above our required thresholds, we expect to continue to grow our writings.
Consequently, these rate improvements have enabled us to continue to expand writings in our property casualty segments. We are now in the sixth consecutive quarter of rate increases with a weighted increase of approximately 10% this quarter, comfortably in excess of loss cost trends. Premiums increased across most lines of business and geographic areas
as pricing improvements spread and, while rate increases have tapered off from previous highs in some lines, our insurance segment is seeing increases in lines that had been resistant to meaningful change.
In reinsurance, strong growth was observed across most of our lines of business, but especially in our casualty and other specialty lines where strong rates increases and growth in new accounts helped increase the top line. Consistent with our insurance segment, we expect the ongoing rate improvements to be reflected in our underwriting results over the next several quarters.
For our U.S. primary mortgage operations, reported delinquencies were 3.11% at June 30, 2021, roughly 40% lower than it was at the end of the 2020 second quarter. Delinquencies continue to be better than our expectations at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic but delinquency rates remain at elevated levels, reflecting the impact of the recession and forbearance programs under the CARES Act to borrowers experiencing a hardship. Forbearance allows for mortgage payments to be suspended for up to 360 days or longer along with a suspension of foreclosures and evictions. See “Results of Operations—Mortgage Segment” for further details on our mortgage operations.
In the second quarter, our U.S. primary mortgage operations insurance in force remained steady at approximately $278 billion and $422 billion for the total mortgage segment. The refinancing boom that began last year has slowed and we expect improving persistency through remainder of the year.
Outside of the U.S., we increased our writings in Australia as the housing market remains strong there. We like the long-term opportunity in Australia as demonstrated by our announcement in March to acquire Westpac's LMI business. The agreement allows us to free up capital even as we build our Australian presence and diversify our earning streams at attractive risk-adjusted returns.
We remain committed to providing solutions across many offerings as the marketplace evolves, including the mortgage credit risk transfer programs initiated by government sponsored enterprises, or “GSEs.” In addition, we enter into aggregate excess of loss mortgage reinsurance agreements with various special purpose reinsurance companies domiciled in Bermuda and issue mortgage insurance linked notes, increasing our protection for mortgage tail risk. The Bellemeade structures provide approximately $4.7 billion of aggregate reinsurance coverage at June 30, 2021.

FINANCIAL MEASURES
Management uses the following three key financial indicators in evaluating our performance and measuring the overall growth in value generated for Arch Capital’s common shareholders:
Book Value per Share
Book value per share represents total common shareholders’ equity available to Arch divided by the number of common shares outstanding. Management uses growth in book value per share as a key measure of the value generated for our common shareholders each period and believes that book value per share is the key driver of Arch Capital’s share price over time. Book value per share is impacted by, among other factors, our underwriting results, investment returns and share repurchase activity, which has an accretive or dilutive impact on book value per share depending on the purchase price.
Book value per share was $32.02 at June 30, 2021, compared to $30.54 at March 31, 2021 and $27.62 at June 30, 2020. The 4.8% increase in book value per share for the 2021 second quarter and 15.9% increase in book value per share over the trailing twelve months reflected strong underwriting results and investment returns.
Operating Return on Average Common Equity
Operating return on average common equity (“Operating ROAE”) represents annualized after-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders divided by the average of beginning and ending common shareholders’ equity available to Arch during the period. After-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined in Regulation G, represents net income available to Arch common shareholders, excluding net realized gains or losses (which includes changes in the allowance for credit losses on financial assets and net impairment losses recognized in earnings) equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net foreign exchange gains or losses, transaction costs and other and income taxes. Management uses Operating ROAE as a key measure of the return generated to common shareholders. See “Comment on Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Our Operating ROAE was 13.0% for the 2021 second quarter, compared to 0.6% for the 2020 second quarter, and 10.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 3.8% for the 2020 period. The higher 2021 period results, reflected strong underwriting returns and a one-time gain of $74.5 million realized during the 2021 first quarter from our acquisition of 29.5% stake in Coface, while the 2020 period
reflected the impact of COVID-19 on the underwriting results.
Total Return on Investments
Total return on investments includes investment income, equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net realized gains and losses (excluding changes in the allowance for credit losses on non-investment related financial assets) and the change in unrealized gains and losses generated by Arch’s investment portfolio. Total return is calculated on a pre-tax basis and before investment expenses, excludes amounts reflected in the ‘other’ segment, and reflects the effect of financial market conditions along with foreign currency fluctuations. In addition, total return incorporates the timing of investment returns during the periods. The following table summarizes our total return compared to the benchmark return against which we measured our portfolio during the periods. See “Comment on Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Six Months Ended June 30, 20211.39 %1.28 %
Six Months Ended June 30, 20202.82 %1.23 %

Total return for the 2021 second quarter reflected movements in interest rates and credit spreads on our fixed income portfolio. We continue to maintain a short duration on our portfolio of 2.31 years at June 30, 2021.
The benchmark return index is a customized combination of indices intended to approximate a target portfolio by asset mix and average credit quality while also matching the approximate estimated duration and currency mix of our insurance and reinsurance liabilities. Although the estimated duration and average credit quality of this index will move as the duration and rating of its constituent securities change, generally we do not adjust the composition of the benchmark return index except to incorporate changes to the mix of liability currencies and durations noted above. The benchmark return index should not be interpreted as expressing a preference for or aversion to any particular sector or sector weight. The index is intended solely to provide, unlike many master indices that change based on the size of their constituent indices, a relatively stable basket of investable indices. At June 30, 2021, the benchmark return index had an average credit quality of “Aa2” by Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), and an estimated duration of 3.13 years.

COMMENT ON NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Throughout this filing, we present our operations in the way we believe will be the most meaningful and useful to investors, analysts, rating agencies and others who use our financial information in evaluating the performance of our company. This presentation includes the use of after-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders, which is defined as net income available to Arch common shareholders, excluding net realized gains or losses (which includes changes in the allowance for credit losses on financial assets and net impairment losses recognized in earnings), equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net foreign exchange gains or losses, transaction costs and other and income taxes, and the use of annualized operating return on average common equity. The presentation of after-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders and annualized operating return on average common equity are non-GAAP financial measures as defined in Regulation G. The reconciliation of such measures to net income available to Arch common shareholders and annualized return on average common equity (the most directly comparable
GAAP financial measures) in accordance with Regulation G is included under “Results of Operations” below.
We believe that net realized gains or losses, equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net foreign exchange gains or losses and transaction costs and other in any particular period are not indicative of the performance of, or trends in, our business. Although net realized gains or losses, equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method and net foreign exchange gains or losses are an integral part of our operations, the decision to realize investment gains or losses, the recognition of the change in the carrying value of investments accounted for using the fair value option in net realized gains or losses, the recognition of net impairment losses, the recognition of equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method and the recognition of foreign exchange gains or losses are independent of the insurance underwriting process and result, in large part, from general economic and financial market conditions. Furthermore, certain users of our financial information believe that, for many companies, the timing of the realization of investment gains or losses is largely opportunistic. In addition, changes in the allowance for credit losses and net impairment losses recognized in earnings on the Company’s investments represent other-than-temporary declines in expected recovery values on securities without actual realization. The use of the equity method on certain of our investments in certain funds that invest in fixed maturity securities is driven by the ownership structure of such funds (either limited partnerships or limited liability companies). In applying the equity method, these investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on our proportionate share of the net income or loss of the funds (which include changes in the market value of the underlying securities in the funds). This method of accounting is different from the way we account for our other fixed maturity securities and the timing of the recognition of equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method may differ from gains or losses in the future upon sale or maturity of such investments. Transaction costs and other include advisory, financing, legal, severance, incentive compensation and other transaction costs related to acquisitions. We believe that transaction costs and other, due to their non-recurring nature, are not indicative of the performance of, or trends in, our business performance. Due to these reasons, we exclude net realized gains or losses, equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net foreign exchange gains or losses and transaction costs and other from the calculation of after-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders.
We believe that showing net income available to Arch common shareholders exclusive of the items referred to above reflects the underlying fundamentals of our business

since we evaluate the performance of and manage our business to produce an underwriting profit. In addition to presenting net income available to Arch common shareholders, we believe that this presentation enables investors and other users of our financial information to analyze our performance in a manner similar to how management analyzes performance. We also believe that this measure follows industry practice and, therefore, allows the users of financial information to compare our performance with our industry peer group. We believe that the equity analysts and certain rating agencies which follow us and the insurance industry as a whole generally exclude these items from their analyses for the same reasons.
Our segment information includes the presentation of consolidated underwriting income or loss and a subtotal of underwriting income or loss before the contribution from the ‘other’ segment. Such measures represent the pre-tax profitability of our underwriting operations and include net premiums earned plus other underwriting income, less losses and loss adjustment expenses, acquisition expenses and other operating expenses. Other operating expenses include those operating expenses that are incremental and/or directly attributable to our individual underwriting operations. Underwriting income or loss does not incorporate items included in our corporate (non-underwriting) segment. While these measures are presented in note 4, “Segment Information,” of the notes accompanying our consolidated financial statements, they are considered non-GAAP financial measures when presented elsewhere on a consolidated basis. The reconciliations of underwriting income or loss to income before income taxes (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) on a consolidated basis and a subtotal before the contribution from the ‘other’ segment, in accordance with Regulation G, is shown in note 4, “Segment Information” to our consolidated financial statements.

We measure segment performance for our three underwriting segments based on underwriting income or loss. We do not manage our assets by underwriting segment, with the exception of goodwill and intangibles and, accordingly, investment income and other non-underwriting related items are not allocated to each underwriting segment. For the ‘other’ segment, performance is measured based on net income or loss.

Along with consolidated underwriting income, we provide a subtotal of underwriting income or loss before the contribution from the ‘other’ segment. Through June 30, 2021, the ‘other’ segment included the results of Watford Holdings Ltd. Watford Holdings Ltd. is the parent of Watford Re Ltd., a multi-line Bermuda reinsurance company (together with Watford Holdings Ltd., “Watford”). Pursuant to GAAP, Watford was considered a variable interest entity and we
concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of Watford. As such, we consolidated the results of Watford in our consolidated financial statements through June 30, 2021, although we only owned approximately 10% of Watford’s common equity. Watford’s own management and board of directors are responsible for its results and profitability. In addition, we do not guarantee or provide credit support for Watford. Since Watford is an independent company, the assets of Watford can be used only to settle obligations of Watford and Watford is solely responsible for its own liabilities and commitments. Our financial exposure to Watford is limited to our investment in Watford’s senior notes, common and preferred shares and counterparty credit risk (mitigated by collateral) arising from the reinsurance transactions. We believe that presenting certain information excluding the ‘other’ segment enables investors and other users of our financial information to analyze our performance in a manner similar to how our management analyzes performance. See note 11, “Variable Interest Entities and Noncontrolling Interests,” note 4, “Segment Information,” and Note 16, “Subsequent Event,” to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on Watford.

Our presentation of segment information includes the use of a current year loss ratio which excludes favorable or adverse development in prior year loss reserves. This ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined in Regulation G. The reconciliation of such measure to the loss ratio (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) in accordance with Regulation G is shown on the individual segment pages. Management utilizes the current year loss ratio in its analysis of the underwriting performance of each of our underwriting segments.
Total return on investments includes investment income, equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net realized gains and losses (excluding changes in the allowance for credit losses on non-investment related financial assets) and the change in unrealized gains and losses generated by Arch’s investment portfolio. Total return is calculated on a pre-tax basis and before investment expenses, excludes amounts reflected in the ‘other’ segment, and reflects the effect of financial market conditions along with foreign currency fluctuations. In addition, total return incorporates the timing of investment returns during the periods. There is no directly comparable GAAP financial measure for total return. Management uses total return on investments as a key measure of the return generated to Arch common shareholders, and compares the return generated by our investment portfolio against benchmark returns during the periods.

Segment Information
We classify our businesses into three underwriting segments — insurance, reinsurance and mortgage — and two other operating segments — corporate (non-underwriting) and ‘other.’ Our insurance, reinsurance and mortgage segments each have managers who are responsible for the overall profitability of their respective segments and who are directly accountable to our chief operating decision makers, the Chief Executive Officer of Arch Capital, the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of Arch Capital and the President and Chief Underwriting Officer of Arch Capital. The chief operating decision makers do not assess performance, measure return on equity or make resource allocation decisions on a line of business basis. Management measures segment performance for our three underwriting segments based on underwriting income or loss. We do not manage our assets by underwriting segment, with the exception of goodwill and intangible assets, and, accordingly, investment income is not allocated to each underwriting segment.
We determined our reportable segments using the management approach described in accounting guidance regarding disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those used for the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Intersegment business is allocated to the segment accountable for the underwriting results.

The 2021 second quarter loss ratio reflected 3.2 points of current year catastrophic activity, primarily from winter storms Uri and Viola, compared to 12.5 points of catastrophic activity for the 2020 second quarter, which included exposure to the COVID-19 global pandemic. The insurance segment’s current year loss ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 8.6 points lower than in the 2020 period and reflected 4.1 points of current year catastrophic activity, compared to 9.6 points in the 2020 period. The balance of the change in the 2021 loss ratios resulted, in part, from changes in mix of business and the level of large attritional losses.

The reinsurance segment consists of our reinsurance underwriting units which offer specialty product lines on a worldwide basis. Product lines include:
Casualty: provides coverage to ceding company clients on third party liability and workers’ compensation exposures from ceding company clients, primarily on a treaty basis. Exposures include, among others, executive assurance, professional liability, workers’ compensation, excess and umbrella liability, excess motor and healthcare business.
Marine and aviation: provides coverage for energy, hull, cargo, specie, liability and transit, and aviation business, including airline and general aviation risks. Business written may also include space business, which includes coverages for satellite assembly, launch and operation for commercial space programs.
Other specialty: provides coverage to ceding company clients for proportional motor and other lines, including surety, accident and health, workers’ compensation catastrophe, agriculture, trade credit and political risk.
Property catastrophe: provides protection for most catastrophic losses that are covered in the underlying policies written by reinsureds, including hurricane, earthquake, flood, tornado, hail and fire, and coverage for other perils on a case-by-case basis. Property catastrophe reinsurance provides coverage on an excess of loss basis when aggregate losses and loss adjustment expense from a single occurrence or aggregation of losses from a covered peril exceed the retention specified in the contract.
Property excluding property catastrophe: provides coverage for both personal lines and commercial property exposures and principally covers buildings, structures, equipment and contents. The primary perils in this business

include fire, explosion, collapse, riot, vandalism, wind, tornado, flood and earthquake. Business is assumed on both a proportional and excess of loss treaty basis and on a facultative basis. In addition, facultative business is written which focuses on commercial property risks on an excess of loss basis.
Other: includes life reinsurance business on both a proportional and non-proportional basis, casualty clash business and, in limited instances, non-traditional business which is intended to provide insurers with risk management solutions that complement traditional reinsurance.

Current Year Loss Ratio.
2021 Second Quarter versus 2020 Period. The reinsurance segment’s current year loss ratio in the 2021 second quarter was 22.5 points lower than in the 2020 second quarter. The 2021 second quarter loss ratio reflected 2.6 points of current year catastrophic activity, including winter storms Uri and Viola as well as other minor global events. The 2020 second quarter included 26.3 points of catastrophic activity, which included exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 versus 2020 period.The reinsurance segment’s current year loss ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 12.5 points lower than in the 2020 period and reflected 12.9 points of current year catastrophic activity, compared to 19.1 points in the 2020 period. The 2020 period loss ratio included exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Prior Period Reserve Development.
The reinsurance segment’s net favorable development was $20.5 million, or 2.8 points, for the 2021 second quarter, compared to $40.2 million, or 8.4 points, for the 2020 second quarter, and $47.3 million, or 3.4 points, for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $51.8 million, or 5.1 points, for the 2020 period. See note 5, “Reserve for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses,” to our consolidated financial statements for information about the reinsurance segment’s prior year reserve development.
Underwriting Expenses.
2021 Second Quarter versus 2020 Period. The underwriting expense ratio for the reinsurance segment was 24.2% in the 2021 second quarter, compared to 27.0% in the 2020 second quarter. Approximately 2.1 points of the difference is due to a lower level of acquisition expenses related to favorable prior year loss reserve development this quarter than in the 2020 second quarter. The remainder of the decrease in the underwriting expense ratio was primarily related to growth in net premiums earned.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 versus 2020 period. The underwriting expense ratio for the reinsurance segment was 25.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 24.8% for the 2020 period. The comparison of the underwriting expense ratios also reflected changes in the mix and type of business and a higher level of net premiums earned for the 2021 period.

2021 Second Quarter versus 2020 Period. Gross premiums written by the mortgage segment in the 2021 second quarter were 6.1% higher than in the 2020 second quarter, while net premiums written were 3.3% higher, primarily reflecting growth in Australian single premium mortgage insurance and the benefit of premiums received related to the exercise of early redemption options by GSEs for certain seasoned callable credit risk transfer contracts. This growth was partially offset by a lower level of U.S. primary mortgage insurance in force on monthly premium policies, which resulted from the continued high level of refinancing activity.

This growth was partially offset by a lower level of U.S. primary mortgage insurance in force on monthly premium policies, which resulted from the continued high level of refinancing activity.
The persistency rate, which represents the percentage of mortgage insurance in force at the beginning of a 12-month period that remains in force at the end of such period, was 54.8% for the Arch MI U.S. portfolio of mortgage insurance policies at June 30, 2021, reflecting the higher level of mortgage refinancing activity, compared to 58.7% at December 31, 2020.

Current Year Loss Ratio.
2021 Second Quarter versus 2020 Period. The mortgage segment’s current year loss ratio was 45.5 points lower in the 2021 second quarter than in the 2020 second quarter. The mortgage segment’s current year loss ratio was 22.8 points lower for the six months ended June 30, 2021 than for the 2020 period. The lower current year loss ratios for the 2021 period reflect decrease in loss assumptions related to COVID-19 pandemic.
For the 2020 periods, the increase in incurred losses was primarily due to, the financial stress related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Segregating estimated losses due to COVID-19 from the overall mortgage segment estimated losses would require the number of delinquencies specifically attributable to COVID-19. As this analysis cannot be performed accurately, the Company is not reporting COVID-19 provisions separately from its overall loss provisions.

(1)    Amounts include dividends and other distributions on investment funds, term loan investments, funds held balances, cash balances and other items.
(2)    Investment expenses were approximately 0.30% of average invested assets for the 2021 second quarter, compared to 0.28% for the 2020 second quarter, and 0.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 0.32% for the 2020 period.
The lower level of net investment income for the 2021 second quarter primarily related to lower yields available in the financial market. The pre-tax investment income yield, calculated based on amortized cost and on an annualized basis, was 1.47% for the 2021 second quarter, compared to 1.92% for the 2020 second quarter, and 1.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 2.08% for the 2020 period.
Corporate Expenses.
Corporate expenses were $17.2 million for the 2021 second quarter, compared to $16.9 million for the 2020 second quarter, and $40.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $35.1 million for the 2020 period. The increase in corporate expenses was primarily due to higher incentive compensation costs.
Transaction Costs and Other.
Transaction costs and other were a benefit of $1.4 million for the 2021 second quarter, compared to an expense of $1.0 million for the 2020 second quarter, and a benefit of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to an expense of $3.6 million for the 2020 period. Amounts in the 2021 and 2020 periods are primarily related to acquisitions activity for the respective period.
Amortization of Intangible Assets.
Amortization of intangible assets for the 2021 second quarter was $14.4 million, compared to $16.5 million for the 2020

Table of Contents
second quarter, and $28.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $33.1 million for the 2020 period. Amounts in 2021 and 2020 primarily related to amortization of finite-lived intangible assets. See the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2020 Form 10-K for disclosures on our amortization pattern.
Interest Expense.
Interest expense was $31.4 million for the 2021 second quarter, compared to the $25.1 million for the 2020 second quarter, and $65.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $50.4 million for the 2020 period.The higher level of interest expense mainly resulted from the issuance of $1.0 billion of 3.635% senior notes on June 30, 2020.
Net Realized Gains or Losses.
We recorded net realized gains of $163.4 million for the 2021 second quarter, compared to net realized gains of $385.1 million for the 2020 second quarter, and net realized gains of $264.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to net realized gains of $313.0 million for the 2020 period. Currently, our portfolio is actively managed to maximize total return within certain guidelines. The effect of financial market movements on the investment portfolio will directly impact net realized gains and losses as the portfolio is adjusted and rebalanced. Net realized gains or losses from the sale of fixed maturities primarily results from our decisions to reduce credit exposure, to change duration targets, to rebalance our portfolios or due to relative value determinations.
Net realized gains or losses also include realized and unrealized contract gains and losses on our derivative instruments, changes in the fair value of assets accounted for using the fair value option and in the fair value of equities, along with changes in the allowance for credit losses on financial assets and net impairment losses recognized in earnings. See note 7, “Investment Information—Net Realized Gains (Losses),” to our consolidated financial statements for additional information. See note 7, “Investment Information—Allowance for Credit Losses,” to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Equity in Net Income (Loss) of Investment Funds Accounted for Using the Equity Method.
We recorded $122.2 million of equity in net income related to investment funds accounted for using the equity method in the 2021 second quarter, compared to a loss of $65.1 million for the 2020 second quarter, and $193.9 million of income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a loss of $69.3 million for the 2020 period. Such investments are generally recorded on a one to three month lag based on the availability of reports from the investment funds. Investment
funds accounted for using the equity method totaled $2.5 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $2.0 billion at December 31, 2020. See note 7, “Investment Information—Investments Accounted For Using the Equity Method,” to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Net Foreign Exchange Gains or Losses.
Net foreign exchange losses for the 2021 second quarter were $17.9 million, compared to net foreign exchange losses for the 2020 second quarter of $42.4 million. Net foreign exchange gains for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $3.6 million, compared to net foreign exchange gains for the 2020 period of $20.9 million. Amounts in both periods were primarily unrealized and resulted from the effects of revaluing our net insurance liabilities required to be settled in foreign currencies at each balance sheet date.
Income Tax Expense.
Our income tax provision on income (loss) before income taxes, including income (loss) from operating affiliates, resulted in an expense of 7.1% for the 2021 second quarter, compared to 8.8% for the 2020 second quarter, and 7.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 10.7% for the 2020 period. Such amounts exclude the results of the ‘other’ segment. Our effective tax rate, which is based upon the expected annual effective tax rate, may fluctuate from period to period based on the relative mix of income or loss reported by jurisdiction and the varying tax rates in each jurisdiction.
Income (loss) from operating affiliates.
We recorded $24.5 million of net income from our operating affiliates in the 2021 second quarter, compared to a loss of $3.2 million for the 2020 second quarter, and $99.9 million of income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $5.3 million for the 2020 period. Results for the 2021 period, primarily reflected our acquisition of 29.5% of the common equity in Coface, which included a one-time gain of $74.5 million. As a result of equity method accounting rules, approximately $36 million of additional gain was deferred and will generally be recognized over the next five years.
Other Segment 
Through June 30, 2021, the ‘other’ segment included the results of Watford. Pursuant to GAAP, Watford was considered a variable interest entity and we concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of Watford. As such, we consolidated the results of Watford in our consolidated financial statements through June 30, 2021, although we only owned approximately 10% of Watford’s common equity.

Our investment strategy allows for the use of derivative instruments. We utilize various derivative instruments such as futures contracts to enhance investment performance, replicate investment positions or manage market exposures and duration risk that would be allowed under our investment guidelines if implemented in other ways. See note 9, “Derivative Instruments,” to our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures related to derivatives.
Accounting guidance regarding fair value measurements addresses how companies should measure fair value when they are required to use a fair value measure for recognition or disclosure purposes under GAAP and provides a common definition of fair value to be used throughout GAAP. See note 8, “Fair Value,” to our consolidated financial statements for a summary of our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value, segregated by level in the fair value hierarchy.

Bellemeade Re
We have entered into various aggregate excess of loss mortgage reinsurance agreements with various special purpose reinsurance companies domiciled in Bermuda (the “Bellemeade Agreements”). For the respective coverage periods, we will retain the first layer of the respective aggregate losses and the special purpose reinsurance companies will provide second layer coverage up to the outstanding coverage amount. We will then retain losses in excess of the outstanding coverage limit. The aggregate excess of loss reinsurance coverage generally decreases over a ten-year period as the underlying covered mortgages amortize, unless provisional call options embedded within certain of the Bellemeade Agreements are executed or if pre-defined delinquency triggering events occur.
The following table summarizes the respective coverages and retentions at June 30, 2021:

Reserve for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses 
We establish reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses (“Loss Reserves”) which represent estimates involving actuarial and statistical projections, at a given point in time, of our expectations of the ultimate settlement and administration costs of losses incurred. Estimating Loss Reserves is inherently difficult. We utilize actuarial models as well as available historical insurance industry loss ratio experience and loss development patterns to assist in the establishment of Loss Reserves. Actual losses and loss adjustment expenses paid will deviate, perhaps substantially, from the reserve estimates reflected in our financial statements.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our Loss Reserves, net of unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses recoverable, by type and by operating segment were as follows:

LIQUIDITY
This section does not include information specific to Watford. We do not guarantee or provide credit support for Watford, and our financial exposure to Watford is limited to our investment in Watford’s senior notes, common and preferred shares and counterparty credit risk (mitigated by collateral) arising from reinsurance transactions with Watford.
Liquidity is a measure of our ability to access sufficient cash flows to meet the short-term and long-term cash requirements of our business operations.

Arch Capital is a holding company whose assets primarily consist of the shares in its subsidiaries. Generally, Arch Capital depends on its available cash resources, liquid investments and dividends or other distributions from its subsidiaries to make payments, including the payment of debt service obligations and operating expenses it may incur and any dividends or liquidation amounts with respect to our preferred and common shares.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, Arch Capital received dividends of $563.7 million from Arch Re Bermuda, our Bermuda-based reinsurer and insurer, which can pay approximately $3.2 billion to Arch Capital during the remainder of 2021 without providing an affidavit to the Bermuda Monetary Authority (“BMA”).
In June 2021, Arch Capital completed a $500.0 million underwritten public offering of 20.0 million depositary shares, each of which represents a 1/1,000th interest in a share of its 4.550% Non-Cumulative Preferred Shares. See note 2, Share Transactions.

Arch MI U.S. is required to maintain compliance with the GSEs requirements, known as the Private Mortgage Insurer Eligibility Requirements or “PMIERs.” The financial requirements require an eligible mortgage insurer’s available assets, which generally include only the most liquid assets of an insurer, to meet or exceed “minimum required assets” as of each quarter end. Minimum required assets are calculated from PMIERs tables with several risk dimensions (including origination year, original loan-to-value and original credit score of performing loans, and the delinquency status of non-performing loans) and are subject to a minimum amount. Arch MI U.S. satisfied the PMIERs’ financial requirements as of June 30, 2021 with an estimated PMIER sufficiency ratio of 196%, compared to 173% at December 31, 2020.
Arch Capital, through its subsidiaries, provides financial support to certain of its insurance subsidiaries and affiliates, through certain reinsurance arrangements beneficial to the ratings of such subsidiaries. Historically, our insurance, reinsurance and mortgage insurance subsidiaries have entered into separate reinsurance arrangements with Arch Re Bermuda covering individual lines of business. The reinsurance agreements between our U.S.-based property casualty insurance and reinsurance subsidiaries and Arch Re Bermuda were canceled on a cutoff basis as of January 1,

SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
The board of directors of Arch Capital has authorized the investment in Arch Capital’s common shares through a share repurchase program. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, Arch Capital repurchased 13.1 million shares under the share repurchase program with an aggregate purchase price of $485.3 million. Since the inception of the share repurchase program through June 30, 2021, Arch Capital has repurchased 402.3 million common shares for an aggregate purchase price of $4.54 billion. At June 30, 2021, approximately $431.2 million of share repurchases were available under the program, which may be effected from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions through December 31, 2021. The timing and amount of the repurchase transactions under this program will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions and corporate and regulatory considerations.
CATASTROPHIC EVENTS AND SEVERE ECONOMIC EVENTS
We have large aggregate exposures to natural and man-made catastrophic events, pandemic events like COVID-19 and severe economic events. Natural catastrophes can be caused by various events, including hurricanes, floods, windstorms, earthquakes, hailstorms, tornadoes, explosions, severe winter weather, fires, droughts and other natural disasters. Man-made catastrophic events may include acts of war, acts of
terrorism and political instability. Catastrophes can also cause losses in non-property business such as mortgage insurance, workers’ compensation or general liability. In addition to the nature of property business, we believe that economic and geographic trends affecting insured property, including inflation, property value appreciation and geographic concentration, tend to generally increase the size of losses from catastrophic events over time.
Our models employ both proprietary and vendor-based systems and include cross-line correlations for property, marine, offshore energy, aviation, workers compensation and personal accident. We seek to limit the probable maximum pre-tax loss to a specific level for severe catastrophic events. Currently, we seek to limit our 1-in-250 year return period net probable maximum loss from a severe catastrophic event in any geographic zone to approximately 25% of tangible shareholders’ equity available to Arch (total shareholders’ equity available to Arch less goodwill and intangible assets). We reserve the right to change this threshold at any time.
Based on in-force exposure estimated as of July 1, 2021, our modeled peak zone catastrophe exposure was a windstorm affecting the Northeastern U.S., with a net probable maximum pre-tax loss of $676 million, followed by windstorms affecting the Florida Tri-County and the Gulf of Mexico regions with net probable maximum pre-tax losses of $669 and $662 million, respectively. Our exposures to other perils, such as U.S. earthquake and international events, were less than the exposures arising from U.S. windstorms and

hurricanes. As of July 1, 2021, our modeled peak zone earthquake exposure (San Francisco earthquake) represented approximately 75% of our peak zone catastrophe exposure, and our modeled peak zone international exposure (UK windstorm) was substantially less than both our peak zone windstorm and earthquake exposures.
Effective July 1, 2021, our insurance operations had in effect a reinsurance program which provided coverage for certain property-catastrophe related losses equal to $279 million in excess of various retentions per occurrence.
We also have significant exposure to losses due to mortgage defaults resulting from severe economic events in the future. For our U.S. mortgage insurance business, we have developed a proprietary risk model (“Realistic Disaster Scenario” or “RDS”) that simulates the maximum loss resulting from a severe economic downturn impacting the housing market. The RDS models the collective impact of adverse conditions for key economic indicators, the most significant of which is a decline in home prices. The RDS model projects paths of future home prices, unemployment rates, income levels and interest rates and assumes correlation across states and geographic regions. The resulting future performance of our in-force portfolio is then estimated under the economic stress scenario, reflecting loan and borrower information.
Currently, we seek to limit our modeled RDS loss from a severe economic event to approximately 25% of tangible shareholders’ equity available to Arch. We reserve the right to change this threshold at any time. Based on in-force exposure estimated as of July 1, 2021, our modeled RDS loss was approximately 6% of tangible shareholders’ equity available to Arch.
Net probable maximum loss estimates are net of expected reinsurance recoveries, before income tax and before excess reinsurance reinstatement premiums. RDS loss estimates are net of expected reinsurance recoveries and before income tax. Catastrophe loss estimates are reflective of the zone indicated and not the entire portfolio. Since hurricanes and windstorms can affect more than one zone and make multiple landfalls, our catastrophe loss estimates include clash estimates from other zones. Our catastrophe loss estimates and RDS loss estimates do not represent our maximum exposures and it is highly likely that our actual incurred losses would vary materially from the modeled estimates. There can be no assurances that we will not suffer pre-tax losses greater than 25% of our tangible shareholders’ equity from one or more catastrophic events or severe economic events due to several factors. These factors include the inherent uncertainties in estimating the frequency and severity of such events and the margin of error in making such determinations resulting from potential inaccuracies and inadequacies in the data provided by clients and brokers, the modeling techniques and the
application of such techniques or as a result of a decision to change the percentage of shareholders' equity exposed to a single catastrophic event or severe economic event. In addition, actual losses may increase if our reinsurers fail to meet their obligations to us or the reinsurance protections purchased by us are exhausted or are otherwise unavailable. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Industry” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Catastrophic Events and Severe Economic Events” in our 2020 Form 10-K.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Off-balance sheet arrangements are discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our 2020 Form 10-K.
MARKET SENSITIVE INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
In accordance with the SEC’s Financial Reporting Release No. 48, we performed a sensitivity analysis to determine the effects that market risk exposures could have on the future earnings, fair values or cash flows of our financial instruments as of June 30, 2021. Market risk represents the risk of changes in the fair value of a financial instrument and is comprised of several components, including liquidity, basis and price risks. We have not included Watford in the following analyses as we do not guarantee or provide credit support for Watford, and our financial exposure to Watford is limited to our investment in Watford’s senior notes, common and preferred shares and counterparty credit risk (mitigated by collateral) arising from reinsurance transactions.
An analysis of material changes in market risk exposures at June 30, 2021 that affect the quantitative and qualitative disclosures presented in our 2020 Form 10-K (see section captioned “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Market Sensitive Instruments and Risk Management”) were as follows: 
Investment Market Risk
Fixed Income Securities. We invest in interest rate sensitive securities, primarily debt securities. We consider the effect of interest rate movements on the fair value of our fixed maturities, fixed maturities pledged under securities lending agreements, short-term investments and certain of our other investments, equity securities and investment funds accounted for using the equity method which invest in fixed income securities (collectively, “Fixed Income Securities”) and the corresponding change in unrealized appreciation. As interest rates rise, the fair value of our Fixed Income

Securities falls, and the converse is also true. Based on historical observations, there is a low probability that all interest rate yield curves would shift in the same direction at the same time. Furthermore, at times interest rate movements in certain credit sectors exhibit a much lower correlation to changes in U.S. Treasury yields. Accordingly, the actual effect of interest rate movements may differ materially from the amounts set forth in the following tables.
The following table summarizes the effect that an immediate, parallel shift in the interest rate yield curve would have had on our Fixed Income Securities:

Change in unrealized value$0.75 $0.38 $(0.38)$(0.75)
In addition, we consider the effect of credit spread movements on the market value of our Fixed Income Securities and the corresponding change in unrealized value. As credit spreads widen, the fair value of our Fixed Income Securities falls, and the converse is also true. In periods where the spreads on our Fixed Income Securities are much higher than their historical average due to short-term market dislocations, a parallel shift in credit spread levels would result in a much more pronounced change in unrealized value.

Another method that attempts to measure portfolio risk is Value-at-Risk (“VaR”). VaR measures the worst expected
loss under normal market conditions over a specific time interval at a given confidence level. The 1-year 95th percentile parametric VaR reported herein estimates that 95% of the time, the portfolio loss in a one-year horizon would be less than or equal to the calculated number, stated as a percentage of the measured portfolio’s initial value. The VaR is a variance-covariance based estimate, based on linear sensitivities of a portfolio to a broad set of systematic market risk factors and idiosyncratic risk factors mapped to the portfolio exposures. The relationships between the risk factors are estimated using historical data, and the most recent data points are generally given more weight. As of June 30, 2021, our portfolio’s VaR was estimated to be 6.1% compared to an estimated 4.3% at December 31, 2020. In periods where the volatility of the risk factors mapped to our portfolio’s exposures is higher due to market conditions, the resulting VaR is higher than in other periods.
Equity Securities. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair value of our investments in equity securities (excluding securities included in Fixed Income Securities above) totaled $1.3 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively. These investments are exposed to price risk, which is the potential loss arising from decreases in fair value. An immediate hypothetical 10% decline in the value of each position would reduce the fair value of such investments by approximately $132.9 million and $109.5 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and would have decreased book value per share by approximately $0.33 and $0.27, respectively. An immediate hypothetical 10% increase in the value of each position would increase the fair value of such investments by approximately $132.9 million and $109.5 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and would have increased book value per share by approximately $0.33 and $0.27, respectively.
Investment-Related Derivatives. At June 30, 2021, the notional value of all derivative instruments (excluding to-be-announced mortgage backed securities which are included in the fixed income securities analysis above and foreign currency forward contracts which are included in the foreign currency exchange risk analysis below) was $7.5 billion, compared to $8.6 billion at December 31, 2020. If the underlying exposure of each investment-related derivative held at June 30, 2021 depreciated by 100 basis points, it would have resulted in a reduction in net income of approximately $75.0 million, and a decrease in book value per share of approximately $0.19 per share, compared to $85.7 million and $0.21 per share, respectively, on investment-related derivatives held at December 31, 2020. If the underlying exposure of each investment-related derivative held at June 30, 2021 appreciated by 100 basis points, it would have resulted in an increase in net income of approximately $75.0 million, and an increase in book value per share of approximately $0.19 per share, compared to $85.7 million and $0.21 per share, respectively, on

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Foreign currency rate risk is the potential change in value, income and cash flow arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Through our subsidiaries and branches located in various foreign countries, we conduct our insurance and reinsurance operations in a variety of local currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. We generally hold investments in foreign currencies which are intended to mitigate our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations in our net insurance liabilities. We may also utilize foreign currency forward contracts and currency options as part of our investment strategy. See note 9, “Derivative Instruments,” to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
The following table provides a summary of our net foreign currency exchange exposures, as well as foreign currency derivatives in place to manage these exposures:

(1)    Represents capital contributions held in the foreign currencies of our operating units.
(2)    Represents the net notional value of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts.
Although we generally attempt to match the currency of our projected liabilities with investments in the same currencies, from time to time we may elect to over or underweight one or more currencies, which could increase our exposure to
foreign currency fluctuations and increase the volatility of our shareholders’ equity. Historical observations indicate a low probability that all foreign currency exchange rates would shift against the U.S. Dollar in the same direction and at the same time and, accordingly, the actual effect of foreign currency rate movements may differ materially from the amounts set forth above. For further discussion on foreign exchange activity, please refer to “Results of Operations.”
Effects of Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, except insofar as inflation may affect our reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses and interest rates. The potential exists, after a catastrophe loss or pandemic events like COVID-19, for the development of inflationary pressures in a local economy. The anticipated effects of inflation on us are considered in our catastrophe loss models. The actual effects of inflation on our results cannot be accurately known until claims are ultimately settled.
OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 have been reviewed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the registrant's independent public accountants, whose report is included as an exhibit to this filing. The report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP states that they did not audit and they do not express an opinion on that unaudited financial information. Accordingly, the degree of reliance on their report on such information should be restricted in light of the limited nature of the review procedures applied. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 for their report on the unaudited financial information because that report is not a "report" or a "part" of the registration statement prepared or certified by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Securities Act of 1933.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the filing of this Form 10-Q, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to applicable Exchange Act Rules as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of and during the period covered by this report with respect to information being recorded, processed, summarized and reported within time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and with respect to timely communication to them and other members of management responsible for preparing periodic reports of all material information required to be disclosed in this report as it relates to Arch Capital and its consolidated subsidiaries.
We continue to enhance our operating procedures and internal controls to effectively support our business and our regulatory and reporting requirements. Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. As a result of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons or by collusion of two or more people. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. As a result of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatement due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that most of our employees are working remotely due to the COVID-19. We are continually monitoring and assessing COVID-19 situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.
PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We, in common with the insurance industry in general, are subject to litigation and arbitration in the normal course of our business. As of June 30, 2021, we were not a party to any litigation or arbitration which is expected by management to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition and liquidity.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There were no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
