NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Unaudited)
Chubb Limited and Subsidiaries
1. General and significant accounting policies
a) Basis of presentation
Chubb Limited is a holding company incorporated in Zurich, Switzerland. Chubb Limited, through its subsidiaries, provides a broad range of insurance and reinsurance products to insureds worldwide. Our results are reported through the following business segments: North America Commercial P&C Insurance, North America Personal P&C Insurance, North America Agricultural Insurance, Overseas General Insurance, Global Reinsurance, and Life Insurance. Refer to Note 18 for additional information.
The interim unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Chubb Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, Chubb, we, us, or our), over which Chubb exercises control, including Huatai Group, our majority-owned subsidiary, and minority-owned entities such as variable interest entities (VIEs) in which Chubb is considered the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests on the Consolidated Financial Statements represent the portion of majority-owned subsidiaries and VIEs in which we do not have direct equity ownership. These interim unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results and financial position for such periods. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The results of operations and cash flows for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in our 2024 Form 10-K.
b) New Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting guidance not yet adopted
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance that requires expanded income tax disclosures, including the disaggregation of existing disclosures related to the tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for our 2025 annual reporting. Prospective application is required, with retrospective application permitted. We are evaluating the impact of this disclosure-only requirement.
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance that requires disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements. The guidance is effective for our 2027 annual reporting, and interim reporting periods beginning in 2028. Prospective application is required, with retrospective application permitted. We are evaluating the impact of this disclosure-only requirement.
2. Acquisitions
Liberty Mutual's P&C Insurance Businesses in Thailand and Vietnam
On March 3, 2025, we entered into agreements to acquire the insurance businesses of Liberty Mutual in Thailand and Vietnam. The two companies, LMG Insurance in Thailand and Liberty Insurance in Vietnam, offer a range of consumer and commercial P&C products.
On April 1, 2025, we completed the acquisition of LMG Insurance in Thailand for $321 million, and recognized goodwill of $183 million and intangible assets of $57 million. This acquisition expands our presence and advances our long-term growth opportunity in the region. The results of operations for LMG Insurance in Thailand are reported in our Overseas General Insurance segment, and they are not material to Chubb's financial results.
We expect to complete the acquisition of Liberty Insurance in Vietnam by early 2026, subject to required regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.
Huatai Group
In the second quarter of 2025, we closed on incremental ownership interests of approximately 1.6 percent. Our aggregate ownership interest in Huatai Group was approximately 87.2 percent as of September 30, 2025.

Expected maturities could differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations, with or without call or prepayment penalties.
b) Gross unrealized loss
Fixed maturities in an unrealized loss position comprised both investment grade and below investment grade securities for which fair value declined, principally due to rising interest rates since the date of purchase. Refer to Note 1 f) in the 2024 Form 10-K for further information on factors considered in the evaluation of expected credit losses.

At September 30, 2025, the tax benefit on certain unrealized losses in our investment portfolio was reduced by a valuation allowance of $189 million necessary due to limitations on the utilization of these losses for tax purposes. As part of evaluating whether it was more likely than not that we could record a tax benefit on these losses, we considered realized gains, carryback capacity and available tax planning strategies.

Included in all categories in the above table, except for Investment funds, are investments for which Chubb will never have the contractual option to redeem but receives distributions based on the liquidation of the underlying assets. Further, for all categories except for Investment funds, Chubb does not have the ability to sell or transfer the investments without the consent from the general partner of individual funds.
Investment Category:
Consists of investments in private equity funds:
Financial
targeting financial services companies, such as financial institutions and insurance services worldwide
Real assets
targeting investments related to hard physical assets, such as real estate, infrastructure, and natural resources
Distressed
targeting distressed corporate debt/credit and equity opportunities in the U.S.
Private credit
targeting privately originated corporate debt investments, including senior secured loans and subordinated bonds
Traditional
employing traditional private equity investment strategies, such as buyout and growth equity globally
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – continued (Unaudited)
Chubb Limited and Subsidiaries
Investment funds employ various investment strategies, such as long/short equity and arbitrage/distressed. Included in this category are investments for which Chubb has the option to redeem at agreed upon value as described in each investment fund’s subscription agreement. Depending on the terms of the various subscription agreements, investment fund investments may be redeemed monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. If Chubb wishes to redeem an investment fund investment, it must first determine if the investment fund is still in a lock-up period (a time when Chubb cannot redeem its investment so that the investment fund manager has time to build the portfolio). If the investment fund is no longer in its lock-up period, Chubb must then notify the investment fund manager of its intention to redeem by the notification date prescribed by the subscription agreement. Subsequent to notification, the investment fund can redeem Chubb’s investment within several months of the notification. Notice periods for redemption of the investment funds are up to 270 days. Chubb can redeem its investment funds without consent from the investment fund managers.
e) Restricted assets
Chubb is required to maintain assets on deposit with various regulatory authorities to support its insurance and reinsurance operations. These requirements are generally promulgated in the statutory regulations of the individual jurisdictions. The assets on deposit are available to settle insurance and reinsurance liabilities. Chubb is also required to restrict assets pledged under repurchase agreements, which represent Chubb's agreement to sell securities and repurchase them at a future date for a predetermined price. We use trust funds in certain large reinsurance transactions where the trust funds are set up for the benefit of the ceding companies and generally take the place of letter of credit (LOC) requirements. We have investments in segregated portfolios primarily to provide collateral or guarantees for LOC and derivative transactions. Included in restricted assets at September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, are investments, primarily fixed maturities, totaling $19,094 million and $17,945 million, respectively, and cash of $213 million and $261 million, respectively.

f) Variable interest entities (VIEs)
Consolidated VIEs
Certain subsidiaries of Huatai Group are the investment manager of, and maintain investments in, sponsored investment products that are considered VIEs. We have determined that we are the primary beneficiary and consolidate these investment products if we hold at least 10 percent ownership. Refer to Note 1 g) of our 2024 Form 10-K for further information on our consolidation criteria. The assets of these VIEs are not available to our creditors, and the investors in these VIEs have no recourse to Chubb in excess of the assets contained within the VIEs. Our economic exposures are limited to our investments based on our ownership interest in these VIEs. Our total exposure to these consolidated investment products represents the value of our economic ownership interest.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – continued (Unaudited)
Chubb Limited and Subsidiaries
Unconsolidated VIEs
We recorded an investment in a reserved alternative investment fund (Fund) sponsored and managed by a third-party investment fund manager. The Fund is a variable interest entity; however, Chubb is not the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate the Fund because Chubb does not receive substantially all the risks and returns of the Fund. The carrying value of this investment at September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, was $5.1 billion and $5.0 billion, respectively, which approximates our maximum risk of loss. We have elected to account for this investment using the fair value option, classified as Equity securities on the Consolidated balance sheets. We elected the fair value option so that changes in fair value of the Fund are recorded in Net realized gains (losses) and dividends from the Fund are recorded as Net investment income when declared on the Consolidated statements of operations.
We also do not consolidate sponsored investment products where we have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary. The carrying value of these investments at September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, was $159 million and $97 million, respectively, and our maximum risk of loss approximates the carrying amount. These investments are classified within Equity securities and Private equities on the Consolidated balance sheets.
4. Fair value measurements
a) Fair value hierarchy
Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities is estimated based on the framework established in the fair value accounting guidance. The guidance defines fair value as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy based on the reliability of the inputs. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data.
The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:
•Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
•Level 2 – Includes, among other items, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as
interest rates and yield curves, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and
•Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable and reflect management’s judgments about assumptions that market participants
would use in pricing an asset or liability.
We categorize financial instruments within the valuation hierarchy at the balance sheet date based upon the lowest level of inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.
We use pricing services to obtain fair value measurements for the majority of our investment securities. Based on management’s understanding of the methodologies used, these pricing services only produce an estimate of fair value if there is observable market information that would allow them to make a fair value estimate. Based on our understanding of the market inputs used by the pricing services, all applicable investments have been valued in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We do not adjust prices obtained from pricing services. Refer to Note 4 a) of our 2024 Form 10-K for further information on the valuation and leveling of assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Net unpaid losses and loss expenses increased $3,748 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, principally reflecting underlying exposure growth, the unfavorable impact of foreign currency movement, and net catastrophe losses, partially offset by the impact of favorable prior period development. The increase in net unpaid losses also reflected seasonality in our crop insurance business.

Prior Period Development
Prior period development (PPD) arises from changes to loss estimates recognized in the current year that relate to loss events that occurred in previous calendar years and excludes the effect of losses from the development of earned premium from previous accident years. Long-tail lines include lines such as workers' compensation, general liability, and financial lines; while short-tail lines include lines such as most property lines, energy, personal accident, and agriculture. The following table summarizes (favorable) and adverse PPD by segment:

Significant prior period movements by segment, principally driven by reserve reviews completed during each respective period, are discussed in more detail below. The remaining net development for long-tail lines and short-tail business for each segment and Corporate comprises numerous favorable and adverse movements across a number of lines and accident years, none of which is significant individually or in the aggregate.
North America Commercial P&C Insurance.Net favorable development for the three months ended September 30, 2025, included $130 million from short-tail lines, primarily from property lines, due to lower-than-expected loss development on catastrophe and non-catastrophe losses. This favorable development was partially offset by net adverse development of $104 million from long-tail lines, primarily from general casualty partially offset by favorable development in workers' compensation. Net favorable development for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, included $323 million of favorable development from short-tail lines, primarily from property and surety, due to lower-than-expected loss development. Net adverse development for long-tail lines of $77 million was the result of adverse development in general casualty lines partially offset by favorable development in workers' compensation.
Net favorable development for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, included $164 million and $310 million, respectively, from short-tail lines, primarily property and marine, driven by lower-than-expected loss development in the most recent accident years. The nine months ended September 30, 2024, also included favorable development from surety lines, due to lower-than-expected loss development. Long-tail lines experienced adverse development of $125 million and $79 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, which was the net of adverse development in casualty lines, predominantly commercial excess and umbrella and commercial auto liability, due to higher-than-expected loss development, partially offset by favorable development in workers' compensation due to lower-than-expected loss experience and our annual assessment of multi-claimant events, including industrial accidents.
North America Personal P&C Insurance.Net favorable development for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, was predominantly in homeowners, mainly due to lower-than-expected loss experience in the most recent accident years.

Overseas General Insurance.Net favorable development for the three months ended September 30, 2025, included $66 million from long-tail lines. Net favorable development for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, included $252 million from short-tail lines primarily due to favorable loss emergence across multiple accident years.
Net favorable development for the three months ended September 30, 2024, included $61 million from long-tail lines, primarily due to favorable loss emergence in accident years 2019 and 2020. Net favorable development for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, included $184 million from short-tail lines.
Corporate. Net adverse development for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, included adverse development resulting from our annual review of environmental liabilities. Net adverse development for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, also included adverse development for molestation-related claims development.

Separate accounts
Separate account assets represent segregated funds where investment risks are borne by the customers, except to the extent of certain guarantees made by Chubb. The assets that support variable contracts are measured at fair value and are reported as Separate account assets and corresponding liabilities are reported within Separate account liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets. Policy charges assessed against the policyholders for mortality, administration, and other services are included in Net premiums earned on the Consolidated statements of operations.

(1) Market movements are predominantly driven by changes in equities.
(2) The net amount at risk is defined as the present value of future claim payments assuming policy account values and guaranteed values are fixed at the valuation date, and reinsurance coverage ends at the earlier of the maturity of the underlying variable annuity policy or the reinsurance treaty. No withdrawals, lapses, and mortality improvements are assumed in the projection. GLB-related risks contain conservative mortality and annuitization assumptions.
Excluded from the table above are MRB losses of $197 million and $258 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, reported in the Consolidated statements of operations, relating to the market risk benefits' economic hedge and other net cash flows. There is no reinsurance recoverable associated with our liability for MRB.
In the third quarter of 2025 and 2024, we completed a review of policyholder behavior related to annuitizations, partial withdrawals, lapses, and mortality for our variable annuity reinsurance business. These refinements resulted in a net increase of approximately $101 million and $87 million to the MRB fair value, respectively, recognized as a Market risk benefits loss.
•We refreshed our partial withdrawal assumptions to include an additional year of experience and refined the withdrawal rates for policies with guaranteed values far in excess of their account values.
•We updated the annuitization assumptions to include an additional year of experience, refreshing treaty-based and age-based behavior assumptions.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – continued (Unaudited)
Chubb Limited and Subsidiaries
•We updated the mortality and lapse assumptions to include an additional year of experience.
For MRB, Chubb estimates fair value using an internal valuation model which includes a number of factors including interest rates, equity markets, credit risk, current account value, market volatility, expected annuitization rates and other policyholder behavior, and changes in policyholder mortality. All reinsurance treaties contain claim limits, which are also factored into the valuation model.

(1)The weighted-average lapse and annuitization rates are determined by weighting each treaty's rates by the MRB contract's fair value.
The most significant policyholder behavior assumptions include lapse rates for MRBs, and GLB annuitization rates. Assumptions regarding lapse rates and GLB annuitization rates differ by treaty, but the underlying methodologies to determine rates applied to each treaty are comparable.
A lapse rate is the percentage of in-force policies surrendered in a given calendar year. All else equal, as lapse rates increase, ultimate claim payments will decrease.
The GLB annuitization rate is the percentage of policies for which the policyholder will elect to annuitize using the guaranteed benefit provided under the GLB. All else equal, as GLB annuitization rates increase, ultimate claim payments will increase, subject to treaty claim limits.
The effect of changes in key market factors on assumed lapse and annuitization rates reflect emerging trends using data available from cedants. For treaties with limited experience, rates are established by blending the experience with data received from other ceding companies. The model and related assumptions are regularly re-evaluated by management and enhanced, as appropriate, based upon additional experience obtained related to policyholder behavior and availability of updated information such as market conditions, market participant assumptions, and demographics of in-force annuities. For detailed information on our lapse and annuitization rate assumptions, refer to Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2024 Form 10-K.
12. Debt
a) Chubb INA senior notes
On August 6, 2025, Chubb INA issued $1.25 billion of 4.90 percent senior notes due August 2035.
These senior unsecured notes are guaranteed on a senior basis by Chubb Limited and they rank equally with all of Chubb INA's other senior obligations. They also contain customary limitations on lien provisions as well as customary events of default provisions which, if breached, could result in the accelerated maturity of such senior debt. These senior notes are redeemable at any time at Chubb INA's option subject to a “make-whole” premium (the present value of the remaining principal and interest discounted at the applicable comparable government bond rate plus 0.15 percent). The notes are also redeemable at par plus accrued and unpaid interest in the event of certain changes in tax law. These notes do not have the benefit of any sinking fund.
Chubb INA's $800 million of 3.15 percent senior notes due March 2025 were paid upon maturity.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – continued (Unaudited)
Chubb Limited and Subsidiaries
b) Foreign denominated debt
(i) Chubb INA CNY bonds
On August 6, 2025, Chubb INA issued a series of bonds denominated in Chinese yuan renminbi (CNY), guaranteed by Chubb Limited. The issuance comprises:
•1.0 billion CNY (approximately $139 million based on the foreign exchange rate at the date of issuance) aggregate principal amount of 2.50 percent bonds due 2030;
•1.5 billion CNY (approximately $209 million based on the foreign exchange rate at the date of issuance) aggregate principal amount of 2.75 percent bonds due 2035; and,
•2.0 billion CNY (approximately $279 million based on the foreign exchange rate at the date of issuance) aggregate principal amount of 3.05 percent bonds due 2055.
(ii) Chubb INA term loans
In April 2025, Chubb INA entered into a 1.8 billion Chinese yuan renminbi term loan (approximately $249 million based on the foreign exchange rate at the date of issuance) at 2.85 percent, due April 2028.
In July 2025, Chubb INA entered into a 2.1 billion Chinese yuan renminbi term loan (approximately $299 million based on the foreign exchange rate on the date of issuance) at 2.75 percent, due July 2028.
These term loans are guaranteed by Chubb Limited.
c) Commercial paper program
In the second quarter of 2025, Chubb established a commercial paper program, under which Chubb INA may issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper notes (commercial paper) on a private placement basis. Payment of the commercial paper is guaranteed on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis by Chubb Limited, and the commercial paper and guarantee rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.
We have the ability to borrow a total of $2.0 billion, supported by our $3.0 billion group syndicated credit facility which expires in October 2027. Commercial paper is recorded in Short-term debt in the Consolidated balance sheets.
As of September 30, 2025, there was no commercial paper outstanding.
13. Commitments, contingencies, and guarantees
a)Derivative instruments
Chubb maintains positions in derivative instruments such as futures, options, swaps, and foreign currency forward contracts for which the primary purposes are to manage duration and foreign currency exposure, yield enhancement, or to obtain an exposure to a particular financial market. Chubb also maintains positions in convertible securities that contain embedded derivatives, and exchange-traded equity futures contracts on equity market indices to limit equity exposure in the market risk benefit (MRB) book of business. Derivative instruments are principally recorded in either Other assets (OA) or Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities (AP) in the Consolidated balance sheets. Convertible securities are recorded in either Fixed maturities available-for-sale (FM AFS) or Equity securities (ES), depending on the underlying investment. These are the most numerous and frequent derivative transactions. In addition, Chubb, from time to time, purchases to be announced mortgage-backed securities (TBAs) as part of its investing activities.
As a global company, Chubb entities transact business in multiple currencies. Our policy is to generally match assets, liabilities, and required capital for each individual jurisdiction in local currency, which would include the use of derivatives discussed below. Some of Chubb's derivatives satisfy hedge accounting requirements, as discussed below. We also consider economic hedging for planned cross border transactions.

b) Hedge accounting
We designate certain derivatives as fair value hedges and net investment hedges for accounting purposes to hedge foreign currency exposure associated with portions of our euro denominated debt and the net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries, respectively. These derivatives comprise cross-currency swaps, which are agreements under which two counterparties exchange interest payments and principal denominated in different currencies at a future date. These hedges have been and are expected to be highly effective.
(i) Fair value hedges
Cross-currency swaps
Chubb holds certain cross-currency swaps designated as fair value hedges. The objective of these cross-currency swaps is to hedge the foreign currency risk on €1.7 billion, or approximately $2.0 billion at September 30, 2025, of euro denominated debt by converting cash flows back into the U.S. dollar.
These hedges are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in Other comprehensive income (OCI). The gains or losses on the fair value hedges offsetting the foreign currency remeasurement on the hedged euro denominated senior notes are reclassified from OCI into Net realized gains (losses), and an additional portion is reclassified into Interest expense as follows:

(ii) Net investment hedges
Cross-currency swaps
Chubb holds certain cross-currency swaps designated as net investment hedges. The objective of these cross-currency swaps is to hedge the foreign currency exposure in the net investments of certain foreign subsidiaries by converting cash flows from U.S. dollar to the British pound sterling, Japanese yen, Swiss franc, and Chinese yuan renminbi. The hedged risk is designated as the foreign currency exposure arising between the functional currency of the foreign subsidiary and the functional currency of its parent entity.
These net investment hedges are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in Cumulative translation adjustments (CTA) within OCI, and a portion reclassified to Interest expense. The mark-to-market adjustments for foreign currency changes will remain in CTA until the underlying hedge subsidiary is deconsolidated or hedge accounting is discontinued.
Foreign denominated debt
Chubb designated its foreign denominated Chinese yuan renminbi bonds and term loans issued in 2025 as non-derivative net investment hedges to mitigate the foreign currency exposure in the net investments of certain foreign subsidiaries. Changes in the carrying value of the debt attributable to foreign currency revaluation are recorded in CTA within OCI. These adjustments will remain in CTA until the underlying hedge subsidiary is deconsolidated or hedge accounting is discontinued. The carrying amount of non-derivative debt instruments designated as net investment hedges was $1.2 billion at September 30, 2025. Refer to Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

(i) Foreign currency exposure management
A foreign currency forward contract (forward) is an agreement between participants to exchange specific currencies at a future date. Chubb uses forwards to minimize the effect of fluctuating foreign currencies as discussed above.
(ii) Duration management and market exposure
Futures
Futures contracts give the holder the right and obligation to participate in market movements, determined by the index or underlying security on which the futures contract is based. Settlement is made daily in cash by an amount equal to the change in value of the futures contract times a multiplier that scales the size of the contract. Exchange-traded futures contracts on money market instruments, notes and bonds are used in fixed maturity portfolios to more efficiently manage duration, as substitutes for ownership of the money market instruments, bonds, and notes without significantly increasing the risk in the portfolio. Investments in futures contracts may be made only to the extent that there are assets under management not otherwise committed.
Exchange-traded equity futures contracts are used to limit exposure to a severe equity market decline, which would cause an increase in expected claims and, therefore, an increase in market risk benefit reserves.
Forwards
A fixed income forward contract (forward) is an agreement between participants to exchange a specific instrument at a fixed price at a future date. Chubb uses forwards to mitigate reinvestment risk of future written premiums.
Options
An option contract conveys to the holder the right, but not the obligation, to purchase or sell a specified amount or value of an underlying security at a fixed price. Option contracts are used in our investment portfolio as protection against unexpected shifts in interest rates, which would affect the duration of the fixed maturity portfolio. By using options in the portfolio, the overall interest rate sensitivity of the portfolio can be reduced. Option contracts may also be used as an alternative to futures contracts in the synthetic strategy as described above.
The price of an option is influenced by the underlying security, level of interest rates, expected volatility, time to expiration, and supply and demand.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – continued (Unaudited)
Chubb Limited and Subsidiaries
The credit risk associated with the above derivative financial instruments relates to the potential for non-performance by counterparties. Although non-performance is not anticipated, in order to minimize the risk of loss, management monitors the creditworthiness of its counterparties and obtains collateral. The performance of exchange-traded instruments is guaranteed by the exchange on which they trade. For non-exchange-traded instruments, the counterparties are principally banks which must meet certain criteria according to our investment guidelines.
Other
Included within Other are derivatives intended to reduce potential losses which may arise from certain exposures in our insurance business. The economic benefit provided by these derivatives is similar to purchased reinsurance. For example, Chubb may, from time to time, enter into crop derivative contracts to protect underwriting results in the event of a significant decline in commodity prices.
(iii) Convertible security investments
A convertible security is a debt instrument or preferred stock that can be converted into a predetermined amount of the issuer’s equity. The convertible option is an embedded derivative within the host instruments which are classified in the investment portfolio as either available-for-sale or as an equity security. Chubb purchases convertible securities for their total return and not specifically for the conversion feature.
(iv) TBA
By acquiring to be announced mortgage-backed securities (TBAs), we make a commitment to purchase a future issuance of mortgage-backed securities. For the period between purchase of the TBAs and issuance of the underlying security, we account for our position as a derivative in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Chubb purchases TBAs, from time to time, both for their total return and for the flexibility they provide related to our mortgage-backed security strategy.
(v) Futures contracts on equities
Under the MRB program, as the assuming entity, Chubb is obligated to provide coverage until the expiration or maturity of the underlying deferred annuity contracts or the expiry of the reinsurance treaty. We may recognize a loss for changes in fair value due to adverse changes in the capital markets (e.g., declining interest rates and/or declining U.S. and/or international equity markets). To mitigate adverse changes in the capital markets, we maintain positions in exchange-traded equity futures contracts, as noted under section "(ii) Futures" above. These futures increase in fair value when the S&P 500 index decreases (and decrease in fair value when the S&P 500 index increases). The net impact of gains or losses related to changes in fair value of the MRB liability and the exchange-traded equity futures are included in Market risk benefits gains (losses) in the Consolidated statements of operations.
d) Securities lending and secured borrowings
Chubb participates in a securities lending program operated by a third-party banking institution whereby certain assets are loaned to qualified borrowers and from which we earn an incremental return. The securities lending collateral can only be drawn down by Chubb in the event that the institution borrowing the securities is in default under the lending agreement. An indemnification agreement with the lending agent protects us in the event a borrower becomes insolvent or fails to return any of the securities on loan. The collateral is recorded in Securities lending collateral and the liability is recorded in Securities lending payable in the Consolidated balance sheets.

(1)Per the repurchase agreements, the amount of collateral posted is required to exceed the amount of gross liability.
Potential risks exist in our secured borrowing transactions due to market conditions and counterparty exposure. With collateral that we pledge, there is a risk that the collateral may not be returned at the expiration of the agreement. If the counterparty fails to return the collateral, Chubb will have free use of the borrowed funds until our collateral is returned. In addition, we may encounter the risk that Chubb may not be able to renew outstanding borrowings with a new term or with an existing counterparty due to market conditions including a decrease in demand as well as more restrictive terms from banks due to increased regulatory and capital constraints. Should this condition occur, Chubb may seek alternative borrowing sources or reduce borrowings. Additionally, increased margins and collateral requirements due to market conditions would increase our restricted assets as we are required to provide additional collateral to support the transaction.

e) Fixed maturities
At September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, commitments to purchase fixed income securities over the next several years were $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively.
f) Private equities
Private equities in the Consolidated balance sheets are investments in limited partnerships and partially-owned investment companies. At September 30, 2025, private equities with a carrying value of $16.4 billion had commitments that could require funding of up to $6.4 billion over the next several years. At December 31, 2024, these investments had a carrying value of $14.5 billion with commitments of up to $6.4 billion. The remaining private equities had no funding commitments.
g) Income taxes
At September 30, 2025, $76 million of unrecognized tax benefits remain outstanding. It is reasonably possible that, over the next twelve months, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits may change resulting from the re-evaluation of unrecognized tax benefits arising from examinations by taxing authorities, settlements, and the lapses of statutes of limitations. With few exceptions, Chubb is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years before 2012.
h) Legal proceedings
Our insurance subsidiaries are subject to claims litigation involving disputed interpretations of policy coverages and, in some jurisdictions, direct actions by allegedly-injured persons seeking damages from policyholders. These lawsuits, involving claims on policies issued by our subsidiaries which are typical to the insurance industry in general and in the normal course of business, are considered in our loss and loss expense reserves. In addition to claims litigation, we are subject to lawsuits and regulatory actions in the normal course of business that do not arise from or directly relate to claims on insurance policies. This category of business litigation typically involves, among other things, allegations of underwriting errors or misconduct, employment claims, regulatory activity, or disputes arising from our business ventures. In the opinion of management, our ultimate liability for these matters could be, but we believe is not likely to be, material to our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
i) Lease commitments
At September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the right-of-use asset was $1,044 million and $824 million, respectively, recorded within Other assets, and the lease liability was $1,183 million and $942 million, respectively, recorded within Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets. These leases consist principally of real estate operating leases that are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, which expire at various dates.
14. Shareholders’ equity
All of Chubb’s Common Shares are authorized under Swiss corporate law. Though the par value of Common Shares is stated in Swiss francs, Chubb continues to use U.S. dollars as its reporting currency for preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements. Under Swiss corporate law, dividends, including distributions from legal reserves or through a reduction in par value (par value reduction), must be stated in Swiss francs though dividend payments are made by Chubb in U.S. dollars. At September 30, 2025, our Common Shares had a par value of CHF 0.50 per share.
At our May 2025 annual general meeting, our shareholders approved an annual dividend for the following year of up to $3.88 per share, expected to be paid in four quarterly installments of $0.97 per share after the general meeting by way of distribution from capital contribution reserves, transferred to free reserves for payment. The Board of Directors (Board) will determine the record and payment dates at which the annual dividend may be paid until the date of 2026 annual general meeting, and is authorized to abstain from distributing a dividend at its discretion.
At our May 2024 and 2023 annual general meetings, our shareholders approved annual dividends for the following year of up to $3.64 per share and $3.44 per share, respectively, which were paid in four quarterly installments of $0.91 and $0.86 per share, respectively, at dates determined by the Board after the annual general meetings by way of a distribution from capital contribution reserves, transferred to free reserves for payment.

Increases in Common Shares in treasury are due to open market repurchases of Common Shares and the surrender of Common Shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock and the forfeiture of unvested restricted stock. Decreases in Common Shares in treasury are principally due to grants of restricted stock, exercises of stock options, purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), and share cancellations. At our May 2024 annual general meeting, held on May 16, 2024, our shareholders approved the cancellation of 11,825,600 shares purchased under our share repurchase programs during 2023. The capital reduction was subject to publication requirements and became effective in accordance with Swiss law on May 21, 2024. On March 7, 2025, Chubb completed a share capital reduction by means of cancellation of 7,518,565 Common Shares purchased under our share repurchase program during 2024. The capital reduction was completed in accordance with the capital band provision for authorized share capital increases and reductions by the Board set forth in the Articles of Association. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, 8,121,824 shares were repurchased, 7,518,565 shares were canceled, and 1,742,599 net shares were issued under employee share-based compensation plans. At September 30, 2025, 17,782,983 Common Shares remain in treasury.
In June 2023, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $5.0 billion of Chubb Common Shares, effective July 1, 2023, with no expiration date. In May 2025, the Board determined to terminate the June 2023 authorization as of June 30, 2025 and concurrently authorized a new repurchase amount of up to $5.0 billion of Chubb Common Shares, effective July 1, 2025, with no expiration date.

15. Share-based compensation
The Chubb Limited 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the Amended 2016 LTIP), permits grants of both incentive and non-qualified stock options principally at an option price per share equal to the grant date fair value of Chubb's Common Shares. Stock options are generally granted with a 3-year vesting period and a 10-year term. Stock options typically vest in equal annual installments over the respective vesting period, which is also the requisite service period. On March 3, 2025, Chubb granted 1,253,605 stock options with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $74.75 each. The fair value of the options issued is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The Amended 2016 LTIP also permits grants of service-based restricted stock and restricted stock units as well as performance shares and performance stock units. Under the Chubb Deferred Stock Unit Plan, a sub-plan of the Amended 2016 LTIP, eligible participants may defer vested performance stock units and restricted stock units to the extent such awards are U.S.-allocated compensation.
Chubb generally grants service-based restricted stock and restricted stock units with a 4-year vesting period, based on a graded vesting schedule. Performance shares and performance stock units granted comprise both target and premium awards that cliff vest at the end of a 3-year performance period based on tangible book value (Chubb shareholders' equity less goodwill and intangible assets attributable to Chubb, net of tax) per share growth and P&C combined ratio compared to a defined group of peer companies. Premium awards are subject to an additional vesting provision based on total shareholder return compared to the peer group. Stock and unit awards are principally granted at market close price on the grant date. On March 3, 2025, Chubb granted 619,298 service-based restricted stock, 287,268 service-based restricted stock units, 103,285 performance shares, and 289,620 performance stock units to employees and officers with a grant date fair value of $289.69 each. Each service-based restricted stock unit and performance stock unit represents our obligation to deliver to the holder one Common Share upon vesting (or the end of the deferral period, if the unit is under the Chubb Deferred Stock Unit Plan).

Equity in net income of partially-owned entities includes our share of net income or loss, both underlying operating income and mark-to-market movement, related to partially-owned investment companies (private equity) where we own more than three percent, and partially-owned insurance companies. This line item includes mark-to-market gains (losses) on private equities of
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – continued (Unaudited)
Chubb Limited and Subsidiaries
$(84) million and $429 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $211 million and $318 million, respectively, for the prior year periods.
Also included in Other income and expense are gains (losses) from fair value changes in separate account assets that do not qualify for separate account treatment under U.S. GAAP. The offsetting movement in the separate account liabilities is included in Policy benefits in the Consolidated statements of operations.
Asset management and performance fee revenue and expense primarily relate to the management of third-party assets by Huatai's asset management business, which is unrelated to Huatai Group's core insurance operations. These revenues and expenses are recognized in the period in which the services are performed and, for certain asset performance fees, to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur.
Certain federal excise and capital taxes incurred as a result of capital management initiatives are included in Other income and expense as these are considered capital transactions and are excluded from underwriting results. Bad debt expense for uncollectible premiums is also included in Other income and expense.
18. Segment information
Chubb operates through six business segments: North America Commercial P&C Insurance, North America Personal P&C Insurance, North America Agricultural Insurance, Overseas General Insurance, Global Reinsurance, and Life Insurance. These segments distribute their products through various forms of brokers, agencies, and direct marketing programs. All business segments have established relationships with reinsurance intermediaries.
Segment performance is reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer of Chubb Ltd, our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The CODM is ultimately responsible for evaluating the performance of our six business segments, making strategic operating decisions, and allocating resources. The financial results of our operations are reported in a manner consistent with results reviewed by the CODM in reviewing and assessing the performance of our six business segments. Excluding our Life Insurance segment, the CODM uses Underwriting income (loss) as a basis for segment performance. Chubb calculates Underwriting income (loss) by subtracting Losses and loss expenses, Policy benefits, Policy acquisition costs, and Administrative expenses from Net premiums earned. For both our P&C and Life Insurance segments, another measure of segment performance is Segment income (loss). Segment income (loss) includes Underwriting income (loss), Net investment income (loss), amortization of purchased intangibles acquired by the segment, and other operating income and expense items such as each segment's share of the operating income (loss) related to partially-owned entities, and miscellaneous income and expense items for which the segments are held accountable. We determined that this definition of Segment income (loss) is appropriate and aligns with how the business is managed. We continue to evaluate our segments as our business continues to evolve and may further refine our segments and Segment income (loss) measures.
Revenue and expenses managed at the corporate level, including Net realized gains (losses), Market risk benefits gains (losses), Interest expense, Integration expenses, Income tax expense, and Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests are reported within Corporate. Integration expenses are one-time costs that are directly attributable to third-party consulting fees, employee-related retention costs, and other professional and legal fees primarily related to the acquisition of Cigna's business in Asia. These items are not allocated to the segment level as they are one-time in nature and are not related to the ongoing business activities of the segment. The CODM does not manage segment results or allocate resources to segments when considering these costs, and therefore Integration expenses are excluded from our definition of Segment income (loss).
Certain items are presented in a different manner for segment reporting purposes than in the Consolidated Financial Statements, including:
•Losses and loss expenses include realized gains and losses on crop derivatives. These derivatives were purchased to provide economic benefit, in a manner similar to reinsurance protection, in the event that a significant decline in commodity pricing impacts underwriting results. We view gains and losses on these derivatives as part of the results of our underwriting operations, and therefore, realized gains (losses) from these derivatives are reclassified to losses and loss expenses.
•Policy benefits include fair value changes on separate accounts that do not qualify for separate accounting under U.S. GAAP. These gains and losses have been reclassified from Other (income) expense to Policy benefits. Policy benefits also include the impact of realized gains and losses on investment portfolios supporting certain participating policies. These realized gains and losses have been reclassified from net realized gains (losses) to policy benefits. This presentation better reflects the gains and losses from fair value changes in separate account assets and liabilities, and
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – continued (Unaudited)
Chubb Limited and Subsidiaries
the economics of the participating policies by connecting the investment performance that is shared with policyholders to the liability.
•Net investment income includes investment income reclassified from Other (income) expense related to partially-owned investment companies (private equity partnerships) where our ownership interest is in excess of three percent. We view investment income from these equity-method private equity partnerships as Net investment income for segment reporting purposes.

•actual amount of new and renewal business, premium rates, underwriting margins, market acceptance of our products, and risks associated with the introduction of new products and services and entering new markets; the competitive environment in which we operate, including trends in pricing or in policy terms and conditions, which may differ from our projections, and changes in market conditions that could render our business strategies ineffective or obsolete;
•losses arising out of natural or man-made catastrophes; actual loss experience from insured or reinsured events and the timing of claim payments; the uncertainties of the loss-reserving and claims-settlement processes, including the difficulties associated with assessing environmental damage and asbestos-related latent injuries, the impact of aggregate-policy-coverage limits, the impact of bankruptcy protection sought by various asbestos producers and other related businesses, and the timing of loss payments;
•changes in the distribution or placement of risks due to increased consolidation of insurance and reinsurance brokers; material differences between actual and expected assessments for guaranty funds and mandatory pooling arrangements; the ability to collect reinsurance recoverable, credit developments of reinsurers, and any delays with respect thereto and changes in the cost, quality, or availability of reinsurance;

•actions that rating agencies may take from time to time, such as financial strength or credit ratings downgrades or placing these ratings on credit watch negative or the equivalent;
•the effects of public company bankruptcies and accounting restatements, as well as disclosures by and investigations of public companies relating to possible accounting irregularities, and other corporate governance issues;
•acquisitions made performing differently than expected, our failure to realize anticipated expense-related efficiencies or growth from acquisitions, and the impact of acquisitions on our pre-existing organization;
•risks associated with being a Swiss corporation, including reduced flexibility with respect to certain aspects of capital management and the potential for additional regulatory burdens; share repurchase plans and share cancellations;
•loss of the services of any of our executive officers without suitable replacements being recruited in a reasonable time frame;
•the ability of our technology resources, including information systems and security, to perform as anticipated such as with respect to preventing material information technology failures or third-party infiltrations or hacking resulting in consequences adverse to Chubb or its customers or partners; the ability of our company to increase use of data analytics and technology as part of our business strategy and adapt to new technologies; and

Financial Highlights for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025
•Net income attributable to Chubb was $2.8 billion compared with $2.3 billion in the prior year period. Net income in the current year quarter was primarily driven by double-digit growth in both P&C underwriting income and Life segment income and higher net investment income.
•Consolidated net premiums written were $14.87 billion, up 7.5 percent, or 6.8 percent in constant dollars.
•P&C net premiums written were $12.93 billion, up 5.3 percent, or 4.7 percent in constant dollars, with commercial insurance up 2.9 percent and consumer insurance up 10.1 percent in constant dollars. Overall growth in commercial lines reflects strong new business and retention highlighted by middle market and small commercial P&C, excess and surplus (E&S), crop insurance, large account casualty, and financial lines. Consumer insurance growth reflects strong new business and retention, including positive rate and exposure increases. The increase in P&C net premiums was partially offset by two non-recurring items that benefited the prior year quarter in the North America commercial P&C segment, which unfavorably impacted growth by 1.5 percentage points.
•Life Insurance net premiums written were $1.9 billion, up 24.6 percent, or 23.5 percent in constant dollars, due to growth in international life of 25.1 percent in constant dollars, predominantly in North Asia, and Combined North America of 18.1 percent, primarily driven by worksite business. Growth includes $126 million from a one-
time large transaction in New Zealand. Life Insurance segment income was $324 million, up 14.2 percent, or 13.9 percent in constant dollars.
•Pre-tax net investment income was $1.65 billion, up 9.3 percent compared to $1.5 billion in the prior year period, primarily due to higher average invested assets.
•Operating cash flow was $3.6 billion.

For additional information on net premiums written, refer to the segment operating results discussions.
We generally define catastrophe loss events consistent with the definition of the Property Claims Service (PCS) for events in the U.S. and Canada. PCS defines a catastrophe as an event that causes damage of $25 million or more in insured losses and affects a significant number of insureds. For events outside of the U.S. and Canada, we generally use a similar definition. Catastrophe losses are net of reinsurance and include reinstatement premiums, which are additional premiums paid on certain reinsurance agreements in order to reinstate coverage that had been exhausted by loss occurrences. The reinstatement premium amount is typically a pro rata portion of the original ceded premium paid based on how much of the reinsurance limit had been exhausted.
Prior period development (PPD) arises from changes to loss estimates recognized in the current year that relate to loss events that occurred in previous calendar years and excludes the effect of losses from the development of earned premium from previous accident years. PPD includes adjustments relating to either profit commission reserves or policyholder dividend reserves based on actual claim experience that develops after the policy period ends. The expense adjustments correlate to the prior period loss development on these same policies.
Refer to the Non-GAAP Reconciliation section for further information on reinstatement premiums on catastrophe losses and adjustments to prior period development.

Catastrophe losses through September 30, 2025 and 2024, were primarily from the following events:
•2025: California wildfire losses of $1.47 billion; flooding in the U.S., hail, tornadoes, wind events; global earthquakes, principally in Thailand; and winter storm losses.
◦Total North America P&C Insurance catastrophe losses were $237 million and $2.1 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.
◦Total Overseas General catastrophe losses were $42 million and $349 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.
•2024: Severe weather-related events in the U.S. and internationally.
◦Total North America P&C Insurance catastrophe losses were $599 million and $1.4 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.
◦Total Overseas General catastrophe losses were $103 million and $286 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.
Pre-tax net favorable PPD for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was $422 million in our active companies, including net favorable development of $460 million in short-tail lines and net unfavorable development of $38 million in long-tail lines. Net favorable development for short-tail lines is driven by property lines. Net unfavorable development for long-tail lines primarily relates to casualty lines, partially offset by favorable development in workers' compensation. Our corporate run-off portfolio had adverse development of $61 million, primarily driven by adverse development for environmental-related claims.
Pre-tax net favorable PPD for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $1.0 billion in our active companies, including net favorable development of $1.05 billion in short-tail lines and net adverse development of $42 million in long-tail lines. Net favorable development for short-tail lines primarily includes surety, property, and marine lines. Net adverse development for long-tail lines reflects favorable development primarily in workers' compensation offset by adverse development in general casualty lines. Our corporate run-off portfolio had adverse development of $144 million, primarily driven by adverse development for environmental and molestation-related claims.
Pre-tax net favorable PPD for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $299 million in our active companies, including net favorable development of $358 million in short-tail lines and net adverse development of $59 million in long-tail lines. Net favorable development for short-tail lines primarily includes property and marine lines. Net adverse development for long-tail lines reflects favorable development primarily in workers' compensation offset by adverse development in general casualty lines. Our corporate run-off portfolio had adverse development of $55 million, primarily driven by adverse development for environmental-related claims.
Pre-tax net favorable PPD for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $800 million in our active companies, principally in short-tail property and marine lines. Our corporate run-off portfolio had adverse development of $157 million, primarily driven by adverse development for environmental and molestation-related claims.
Refer to the prior period development discussion in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
P&C Combined Ratio
In evaluating our segments, excluding Life Insurance financial performance, we use the P&C combined ratio, the loss and loss expense ratio, the policy acquisition cost ratio, and the administrative expense ratio. We calculate these ratios by dividing the respective expense amounts by net premiums earned. We do not calculate these ratios for the Life Insurance segment as we do not use these measures to monitor or manage the business in that segment. The P&C combined ratio is determined by adding the loss and loss expense ratio, the policy acquisition cost ratio, and the administrative expense ratio. A P&C combined ratio under 100 percent indicates underwriting income, and a combined ratio exceeding 100 percent indicates underwriting loss. P&C CAY combined ratio excluding catastrophe losses (CATs) excludes CATs and prior period development (PPD) from the P&C combined ratio.

The P&C combined ratio decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting lower catastrophe losses and higher favorable prior period development, and the impact of a large structured transaction that had an unfavorable impact to the ratio in the prior year period. The P&C combined ratio increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting California wildfire losses of $1.47 billion, including the unfavorable impact of $37 million of net ceded reinstatement premiums on the expense ratio (i.e., lower premium resulting in a higher expense ratio). The increase was partially offset by higher favorable prior period development.
The P&C CAY combined ratio excluding catastrophe losses decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting lower losses, partially offset by an increase in the policy acquisition cost ratio from changes in mix of business.

Premiums
Net premiums written increased $163 million, or 2.9 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and includes a 3.4 percentage point unfavorable impact of two non-recurring items that benefited the prior year quarter. Middle market and small commercial grew 3.6 percent, including a 3.3 percentage point unfavorable impact of lower workers’ compensation annual payroll-related audit premium adjustments, which are made in the third quarter every year. Major accounts and specialty were up 2.5 percent, and includes a 3.4 percent unfavorable impact from a one-off structured transaction which occurred in 2024, with E&S up 6.6 percent.
Net premiums written increased $483 million, or 3.1 percent, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, which includes P&C lines growth of 2.9 percent and financial lines growth of 3.9 percent. Middle market and small commercial grew 6.5 percent, with P&C lines up 8.1 percent and financial lines up 0.7 percent. Major accounts retail and specialty grew 0.9 percent, with property and other short-tail lines down 3.1 percent, casualty up 4.9 percent, and financial lines up 7.7 percent.
The increase in premiums was across a number of lines, most notably in primary and excess casualty and in our small and mid-market commercial E&S, reflecting new business and rate increases. The increases were partially offset by rate decreases in our Large Risk and E&S brokerage property lines.
Net premiums earned decreased $30 million, or 0.6 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and increased $355 million, or 2.4 percent, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, both reflecting the growth in net premiums written described above. The growth for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was unfavorably impacted by the one-off structured transaction described above and lower workers' compensation annual payroll-related audit premium adjustments that were fully earned when written.
Combined Ratio
The combined ratio decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting lower catastrophe losses. The CAY combined ratio excluding catastrophe losses was relatively flat for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting a change in the mix of business and earned rate exceeding loss trends in certain lines, partially offset by higher loss trends relative to earned rate growth in financial lines, and an increase in the expense ratio reflecting one-off benefits in the prior year. The ratio was also favorably impacted from lower year-over-year large structured transactions as described above.
The North America Personal P&C Insurance segment comprises operations that provide high net worth personal lines products, including homeowners and complementary products such as valuable articles, excess liability, automobile, and recreational marine insurance and services in the U.S. and Canada.

Premiums
Net premiums written increased $135 million, or 8.1 percent, and $393 million, or 8.0 percent, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, driven by strong new business and retention, including positive rate and exposure increases in all lines. The growth in premiums for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was partially offset by $50 million of ceded reinstatement premiums related to the California wildfires.
Net premiums earned increased$164 million, or 10.5 percent, and $436 million, or 9.6 percent, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, reflecting the growth in net premiums written described above.
The combined ratio decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting higher favorable prior period development and a lower impact from catastrophe losses. The combined ratio increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting the California wildfire catastrophe losses, including the unfavorable impact of the ceded reinstatement premiums on the expense ratio, which are fully earned and carry no expenses.
The CAY combined ratio excluding catastrophe losses decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to an improvement in homeowners and auto from lower underlying losses and a lower administrative expense ratio resulting from the impact of higher net premiums earned and expense management.

Premiums
Net premiums written decreased $48 million and $30 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as growth in casualty lines was more than offset by decreases in property, financial, and specialty lines and by the impact of a large treaty in the prior year with a coverage term through 2026. The decrease in net premiums written for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, also includes the impact of a large one-off structured transaction in the second quarter of 2024.
Net premiums earned were relatively flat for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and increased $71 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting the changes in net premiums written described above. Net premiums earned also includes the impact of new business written in the prior year for which premiums are earned in the current year.
The combined ratio decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to lower catastrophe losses. The combined ratio increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily reflecting higher catastrophe losses and lower favorable prior period development.
The CAY combined ratio excluding catastrophe losses for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was relatively flat as lower loss expectations in property and casualty lines was mostly offset by a lower proportion of net premiums earned from property lines which carry a lower loss and expense ratio. The CAY combined ratio excluding catastrophe losses decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to lower loss expectations in property and casualty lines.

Premiums
Net premiums written increased $380 million and $689 million, or $367 million and $794 million on a constant-dollar basis, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.
For our international life operations, net premiums written increased 26.5 percent and 14.4 percent, or 25.1 percent and 17.3 percent on a constant-dollar basis, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Underlying growth was primarily driven by strong new business in North Asia, notably in Huatai, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Korea. Growth for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, includes $126 million from a one-time large transaction in New Zealand.
Net premiums written in our Combined Insurance business increased 18.1 percent and 17.6 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, or 18.1 percent and 18.3 percent on a constant-dollar basis, respectively, due to 29.8 percent and 33.6 percent growth in worksite business.

Deposits collected on universal life and investment contracts (life deposits) are not reflected as revenues in our Consolidated statements of operations in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, new life deposits are an important component of production, as we earn income from both net investment spreads on account balances and fees for management and administrative services. Life deposits collected decreased $90 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, reflecting a shift towards insurance products in Taiwan and market volatility, and increased $36 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily from investment linked product sales through the Taiwan broker channel.
Life Insurance segment income
Life Insurance segment income increased $40 million, or 14.2 percent, and $92 million, or 11.1 percent, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, reflecting the growth in premiums described above, expense leverage and higher net investment income from asset growth.
Corporate
Corporate results primarily include the results of our non-insurance companies, income and expenses not attributable to reportable segments, loss and loss expenses of asbestos and environmental (A&E) liabilities, certain other non-A&E run-off exposures including molestation, and Huatai Group's non-insurance operations results, comprising real estate and holding company activity.

Integration expenses principally comprised legal and professional fees and all other costs primarily related to acquisitions. These expenses are one-time in nature and are not related to the on-going business activities of the segments. The Chief Executive Officer does not manage segment results or allocate resources to segments when considering these costs and they are therefore excluded from our definition of segment income.
Refer to the respective sections that follow for a discussion of Net realized gains (losses), Net investment income (loss), and Income tax expense (benefit). Refer to Notes 11 and 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on Market risk benefits gains (losses) and Other (income) expense, respectively.
Net Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses)
We take a long-term view with our investment strategy, and our investment managers manage our investment portfolio to maximize total return within specific guidelines designed to minimize risk. The majority of our investment portfolio is available-for-sale and reported at fair value.
The effect of market movements on our fixed maturities available-for-sale portfolio impacts Net income (through Net realized gains (losses)) when securities are sold, when we write down an asset, or when we record a change to the valuation allowance for expected credit losses. For a further discussion related to how we assess the valuation allowance for expected credit losses and the related impact on Net income, refer to Note 1 f) to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2024 Form 10-K. The effect of market movements on fixed maturities related to consolidated investment products and investments supporting certain participating products in the Huatai portfolio impact Net realized gains (losses). Additionally, Net income is impacted through the reporting of changes in the fair value of public and private equity securities and derivatives, including financial futures, options, and swaps. Changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation on available-for-sale securities, resulting from the revaluation of securities held, changes in cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment, changes in current discount rate on future policy benefits, changes in instrument-specific credit risk on market risk benefits, unrealized postretirement benefit obligations liability adjustment, and cross-currency swaps designated as hedges for accounting purposes are reported as separate components of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in Shareholders’ equity in the Consolidated balance sheets.

Pre-tax net unrealized gains of $868 million and $2,755 million in our investment portfolio for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, were primarily driven by lower interest rates.
Pre-tax net realized gains of $283 million and $327 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, were primarily driven by mark-to-market gains on equity securities, partially offset by foreign exchange losses.
Effective Income Tax Rate
Our effective tax rate (ETR) reflects a mix of income or losses in jurisdictions with a wide range of tax rates, permanent differences between U.S. GAAP and local tax laws, and the impact of discrete items. A change in the geographic mix of earnings could impact our ETR.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, our ETR was 20.2 percent and 19.7 percent, respectively, compared to an ETR of 16.8 percent and 16.0 percent, respectively, in the prior year. The ETR for each period was impacted by our mix of earnings among various jurisdictions and by discrete tax items. The ETR for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, included an incremental deferred tax benefit of $55 million related to the Bermuda tax law enacted in December 2023.
Non-GAAP Reconciliation
In presenting our results, we included and discussed certain non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures, which may be defined differently by other companies, are important for an understanding of our overall results of operations and financial condition. However, they should not be viewed as a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP.
We provide financial measures, including net premiums written, net premiums earned, segment income, and underwriting income on a constant-dollar basis. We believe it is useful to evaluate the trends in our results exclusive of the effect of fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which our international business is transacted, as these exchange rates could fluctuate significantly between periods and distort the analysis of trends. The impact is determined by assuming constant foreign exchange rates between periods by translating prior period results using the same local currency exchange rates as the comparable current period.
P&C performance metrics comprise consolidated operating results (including Corporate) and exclude the operating results of the Life Insurance segment. We believe that these measures are useful and meaningful to investors as they are used by management to assess the company’s P&C operations which are the most economically similar. We exclude the Life Insurance segment because the results of this business do not always correlate with the results of our P&C operations.
P&C combined ratio is the sum of the loss and loss expense ratio, policy acquisition cost ratio and the administrative expense ratio excluding the life business and including the realized gains and losses on the crop derivatives. These derivatives were purchased to provide economic benefit, in a manner similar to reinsurance protection, in the event that a significant decline in commodity pricing impacts underwriting results. We view gains and losses on these derivatives as part of the results of our underwriting operations.
CAY P&C combined ratio excluding catastrophe losses (CATs) excludes CATs and prior period development (PPD) from the P&C combined ratio. We exclude CATs as they are not predictable as to timing and amount and PPD as these unexpected loss developments on historical reserves are not indicative of our current underwriting performance. The combined ratio numerator is adjusted to exclude CATs, PPD, and expense adjustments on PPD, and the denominator is adjusted to exclude net premiums earned adjustments on PPD and reinstatement premiums on CATs and PPD. In periods where there are adjustments on loss sensitive policies, these adjustments are excluded from PPD and net premiums earned when calculating the ratios. We believe this measure provides a better evaluation of our underwriting performance and enhances the understanding of the trends in our P&C business that may be obscured by these items. This measure is commonly reported among our peer companies and allows for a better comparison.
Reinstatement premiums are additional premiums paid on certain reinsurance agreements in order to reinstate coverage that had been exhausted by loss occurrences. The reinstatement premium amount is typically a pro rata portion of the original ceded premium paid based on how much of the reinsurance limit had been exhausted.
Net premiums earned adjustments within PPD are adjustments to the initial premium earned on retrospectively rated policies based on actual claim experience that develops after the policy period ends. The premium adjustments correlate to the prior period loss development on these same policies and are fully earned in the period the adjustments are recorded.
Prior period expense adjustments typically relate to adjustable commission reserves or policyholder dividend reserves based on actual claim experience that develops after the policy period ends. The expense adjustments correlate to the prior period loss development on these same policies.

Net investment income is influenced by a number of factors including the amounts and timing of inward and outward cash flows, the level of interest rates, and changes in overall asset allocation. Net investment income increased 9.3 percent and 9.4 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, primarily due to higher average invested assets. Income from equity securities increased due to dividends from an investment fund that holds investment grade fixed income securities.
For private equities where we own less than three percent, investment income is included within Net investment income in the table above. For private equities where we own more than three percent, investment income is included within Other (income) expense in the Consolidated statements of operations. Excluded from Net investment income is the mark-to-market movement for private equities, which is recorded within either Other (income) expense or Net realized gains (losses) based on our percentage of ownership. The total mark-to-market movement for private equities excluded from Net investment income was as follows:

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $559 million comprising $575 million related to fixed expense on existing debt obligations and variable expense, and a $16 million benefit relating to the amortization of the fair value of debt assumed in the Chubb Corp acquisition. The variable expenses relate to fees from the usage of certain facilities, including letters of credit, and interest on held collateral and repurchase agreements. Based on projected variable expenses and our existing debt obligations, including recent issuances of Chinese yuan renminbi term loans, bonds, and U.S. dollar senior notes, we expect pre-tax interest expense to be approximately $210 million for the remainder of 2025, or $785 million for the full year. We also expect a $5 million benefit related to the amortization of the fair value of debt assumed in the Chubb Corp acquisition for the remainder of 2025. For more information on our debt obligations, refer to Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements herein, and Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, under Item 8 in our 2024 Form 10-K.
Investments
Our investment portfolio is invested primarily in publicly traded, investment grade, fixed income securities with an average credit quality of A/A as rated by the independent investment rating services Standard and Poor’s (S&P)/Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) at September 30, 2025. The portfolio is primarily managed externally by independent, professional investment managers and is broadly diversified across geographies, sectors, and issuers. We hold no collateralized debt obligations in our
investment portfolio, and we provide no credit default protection. We have long-standing global credit limits for our entire portfolio across the organization. Exposures are aggregated, monitored, and actively managed by our Global Credit Committee, comprising senior executives, including our Chief Financial Officer, our Chief Risk Officer, our Chief Investment Officer, and our Treasurer. We also have well-established, strict contractual investment rules requiring managers to maintain highly diversified exposures to individual issuers and closely monitor investment manager compliance with portfolio guidelines.

Corporate and asset-backed securities
The following table presents our 10 largest global exposures to corporate bonds by fair value at September 30, 2025:
Chubb’s local currency investment portfolios have strict contractual investment guidelines requiring managers to maintain a high quality and diversified portfolio to both sector and individual issuers. Investment portfolios are monitored daily to ensure investment manager compliance with portfolio guidelines.
Our non-U.S. investment grade fixed income portfolios are currency-matched with the insurance liabilities of our non-U.S. operations. The average credit quality of our non-U.S. fixed income securities is A/A and 41 percent of our holdings are rated AAA or guaranteed by governments or quasi-government agencies. Within the context of these investment portfolios, our government and corporate bond holdings are highly diversified across industries and geographies. Issuer limits are based on credit rating (AA—two percent, A—one percent, BBB—0.5 percent of the total portfolio) and are monitored daily via an internal compliance system. We manage our indirect exposure using the same credit rating-based investment approach. Accordingly, we do not believe our indirect exposure is material.

Below-investment grade corporate fixed income portfolio
Below-investment grade securities have different characteristics than investment grade corporate debt securities. Risk of loss from default by the borrower is greater with below-investment grade securities. Below-investment grade securities are generally unsecured and are often subordinated to other creditors of the issuer. Also, issuers of below-investment grade securities usually have higher levels of debt and are more sensitive to adverse economic conditions, such as recession or increasing interest rates, than investment grade issuers. At September 30, 2025, our corporate fixed income investment portfolio included below-investment grade and non-rated securities which, in total, comprised approximately 15 percent of our fixed income portfolio. Our below-investment grade and non-rated portfolio includes over 1,600 issuers, with the greatest single exposure being $204 million.
We manage high-yield bonds as a distinct and separate asset class from investment grade bonds. The allocation to high-yield bonds is explicitly set by internal management and is targeted to securities in the upper tier of credit quality (BB/B). Our minimum rating for initial purchase is BB/B. Fifteen external investment managers are responsible for high-yield security selection and portfolio construction. Our high-yield managers have a conservative approach to credit selection and very low historical default experience. Holdings are highly diversified across industries and generally subject to a 1.5 percent issuer limit
as a percentage of high-yield allocation. We monitor position limits daily through an internal compliance system. Derivative and structured securities (e.g., credit default swaps and collateralized debt obligations) are not permitted in the high-yield portfolio.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Refer to Item 7 in our 2024 Form 10-K for a description of our critical accounting estimates. Except as shown in the table below, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates since December 31, 2024.
Unpaid losses and loss expenses
As an insurance and reinsurance company, we are required by applicable laws and regulations and U.S. GAAP to establish loss and loss expense reserves for the estimated unpaid portion of the ultimate liability for losses and loss expenses under the terms of our policies and agreements with our insured and reinsured customers. With the exception of certain structured settlements, for which the timing and amount of future claim payments are reliably determinable, and certain reserves for unsettled claims, our loss reserves are not discounted for the time value of money.

The estimate of the liabilities includes provisions for claims that have been reported but are unpaid at the balance sheet date (case reserves) and for obligations on claims that have been incurred but not reported (IBNR) at the balance sheet date. IBNR may also include provisions to account for the possibility that reported claims may settle for amounts that differ from the established case reserves. Loss reserves also include an estimate of expenses associated with processing and settling unpaid claims (loss expenses).
Refer to Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion on the changes in the loss reserves.
We actively monitor and manage our catastrophe risk accumulation around the world from natural perils, which includes setting risk limits based on probable maximum loss (PML) and purchasing catastrophe reinsurance to ensure sufficient liquidity and capital to meet the expectations of regulators, rating agencies, and policyholders, and to provide shareholders with an appropriate risk-adjusted return. Chubb uses internal and external data together with sophisticated, analytical catastrophe loss and risk modeling techniques to ensure an appropriate understanding of risk, including diversification and correlation effects, across different product lines and territories. The table below presents our modeled pre-tax estimates of natural catastrophe PML, net of reinsurance, at September 30, 2025, and does not represent our expected catastrophe losses for any one year.

(1) Worldwide aggregate includes modeled losses arising from tropical cyclones, convective storms, earthquakes, wildfires, and inland floods, and excludes "non-modeled" perils such as man-made and other catastrophe risks including pandemic.
(2) U.S. hurricane modeled losses include losses from wind, storm-surge, and related precipitation-induced flooding.
(3) California earthquake modeled losses include the fire-following sub-peril.
The PML for worldwide and key U.S. peril regions are based on our in-force portfolio at July 1, 2025, and reflect the April 1, 2025, reinsurance program, as well as inuring reinsurance protection coverage. Refer to the Global Property Catastrophe Reinsurance section for more information. These estimates assume that reinsurance recoverable is fully collectible.
According to the model, for the 1-in-100 return period scenario, there is a one percent chance that our pre-tax annual aggregate losses incurred in any year from U.S. hurricane events could be in excess of $3,904 million (or 5.4 percent of total Chubb shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2025).
The above estimates of Chubb’s loss profile are inherently uncertain for many reasons, including the following:
•While the use of third-party modeling packages to simulate potential catastrophe losses is prevalent within the insurance industry, the models are reliant upon significant meteorology, seismology, and engineering assumptions to estimate catastrophe losses. In particular, modeled catastrophe events are not always a representation of actual events and ensuing additional loss potential;
•There is no universal standard in the preparation of insured data for use in the models, the running of the modeling software, and interpretation of loss output. These loss estimates do not represent our potential maximum exposures and it is highly likely that our actual incurred losses would vary materially from the modeled estimates;
•The potential effects of climate change add to modeling complexity; and
•Changing climate conditions could impact our exposure to natural catastrophe risks. Published studies by leading government, academic, and professional organizations combined with extensive research by Chubb climate scientists reveal the potential for increases in the frequency and severity of key natural perils such as tropical cyclones, inland flood, and wildfire. To understand the potential impacts on the Chubb portfolio, we have conducted stress tests on our peak exposure zone, namely in the U.S., using parameters outlined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Climate Change 2021 report. These parameters consider the impacts of climate change and the resulting climate peril impacts over a timescale relevant to our business. The tests are conducted by adjusting our baseline view of risk for the perils of hurricane, inland flood, and wildfire in the U.S. to reflect increases in frequency and severity across the modeled domains for each of these perils. Based on these tests against the Chubb portfolio we do not expect material impacts to our baseline PMLs from climate change through December 31, 2025. These tests reflect current exposures only and exclude potentially mitigating factors such as changes to building codes, public or private risk mitigation, regulation, and public policy.
Refer to Item 7 in our 2024 Form 10-K for more information on man-made and other catastrophes.
Chubb’s core property catastrophe reinsurance program provides protection against natural catastrophes impacting its primary property operations (i.e., excluding our Global Reinsurance and Life Insurance segments).
We regularly review our reinsurance protection and corresponding property catastrophe exposures. This may or may not lead to the purchase of additional reinsurance prior to a program’s renewal date. In addition, prior to each renewal date, we consider how much, if any, coverage we intend to buy and we may make material changes to the current structure in light of various factors, including modeled PML assessment at various return periods, reinsurance pricing, our risk tolerance and exposures, and various other structuring considerations.
Chubb renewed its Global Property Catastrophe Reinsurance Program for our North American and International operations effective April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2026. The program consists of three layers in excess of losses retained by Chubb on a per occurrence basis. Chubb renewed its terrorism coverage (excluding nuclear, biological, chemical and radiation coverage, with an inclusion of coverage for biological and chemical coverage for personal lines) for the United States from April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2026, with the same limits, retention, and percentage placed except that the terrorism coverage is on an aggregate basis above our retentions without a reinstatement.

Chubb INA Holdings LLC (Chubb INA) completed the following debt transactions in 2025:
•March 2025: Repaid $800 million of 3.15 percent senior notes upon maturity.
•April 2025: Entered into a 1.8 billion Chinese yuan (CNY) term loan (approximately $249 million at the time of issuance) at 2.85 percent, due April 10, 2028.
•July 2025: Entered into a 2.1 billion CNY term loan (approximately $299 million at the time of issuance) at 2.75 percent, due July 25, 2028.
•August 2025: Issued 4.5 billion CNY bonds (approximately $627 million at the time of issuance) in 5-year, 10-year, and 30-year tranches, with interest rates ranging from 2.50 percent to 3.05 percent.
•August 2025: Issued $1.25 billion of 4.90 percent senior notes due August 2035.
Refer to Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we repurchased $2.3 billion of Common Shares in a series of open market transactions under the Board of Directors (Board) share repurchase authorization. At September 30, 2025, there were 17,782,983 Common Shares in treasury with a weighted-average cost of $207.06 per share. In May 2025, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $5.0 billion of Chubb's Common Shares effective July 1, 2025 with no expiration date. For the period October 1, 2025, through October 24, 2025, we repurchased 1,000,000 Common Shares for a total of $282 million in a series of open market transactions under the share repurchase authorization. At October 27, 2025, $3.5 billion in share repurchase authorization remained.
We generally maintain the ability to issue certain classes of debt and equity securities via a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) shelf registration statement which is renewed every three years. This allows us capital market access for refinancing as well as for unforeseen or opportunistic capital needs.
Dividends
We have paid dividends each quarter since we became a public company in 1993. Under Swiss law, dividends must be stated in Swiss francs though dividend payments are made by Chubb in U.S. dollars. Refer to Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of our dividend methodology.
At our May 2025 annual general meeting, our shareholders approved an annual dividend for the following year of up to $3.88 per share, or CHF 3.24 per share, calculated using the USD/CHF exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on May 15, 2025, expected to be paid in four quarterly installments of $0.97 per share after the general meeting by way of a distribution from capital contribution reserves, transferred to free reserves for payment. The Board determines the record and payment dates at which the annual dividend may be paid until the date of the 2026 annual general meeting and is authorized to abstain from distributing a dividend at its discretion. The annual dividend approved in May 2025 represented a $0.24 per share increase ($0.06 per quarter) over the prior year dividend.

Liquidity
We anticipate that positive cash flows from operations (underwriting activities and investment income) should be sufficient to cover cash outflows under most loss scenarios for the near term. In addition to cash from operations, routine sales of investments, and financing arrangements, we have agreements with a third-party bank provider which implemented two international multi-currency notional cash pooling programs to enhance cash management efficiency during periods of short-term timing mismatches between expected inflows and outflows of cash by currency. The programs allow us to optimize investment income by avoiding portfolio disruption. Should the need arise, we generally have access to the long-term capital markets, credit facilities, and commercial paper.
Our group syndicated credit facility has capacity of $3.0 billion and expires in October 2027. Our total letter of credit capacity is $4.1 billion, $3.0 billion of which can be used for revolving credit. At September 30, 2025, our usage under these facilities was $944 million in letters of credit. Our access to credit under these facilities is dependent on the ability of the bank counterparties to meet their funding commitments. The facilities require that we maintain certain financial covenants, all of which we met at September 30, 2025. Should the existing credit providers on these facilities experience financial difficulty, we may be required to replace credit sources, possibly in a difficult market. If we cannot obtain adequate capital or sources of credit on favorable terms, on a timely basis, or at all, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected. To date, we have not experienced difficulty accessing our credit facility or establishing additional facilities when needed.
We have the ability to borrow a total of $2.0 billion in commercial paper, supported by the $3.0 billion group syndicated credit facility. At September 30, 2025, there were no commercial paper borrowings outstanding.
The payment of dividends or other statutorily permissible distributions from our operating companies are subject to the laws and regulations applicable to each jurisdiction, as well as the need to maintain capital levels adequate to support the insurance and reinsurance operations, including financial strength ratings issued by independent rating agencies. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we were able to meet all our obligations, including the payments of dividends on our Common Shares, with our net cash flows.
We assess which subsidiaries to draw dividends from based on a number of factors. Considerations such as regulatory and legal restrictions as well as the subsidiary’s financial condition are paramount to the dividend decision. Chubb Limited received dividends of $1.3 billion and $1.0 billion from its Bermuda subsidiaries during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Chubb Limited received dividends of $207 million and $91 million from its other international subsidiaries during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Chubb Limited received $2.25 billion from Chubb INA for the redemption of a portion of its ownership interest in Chubb INA, in accordance with the plan of liquidation and conversion of Chubb INA to a limited liability company. Chubb INA is expected to fully redeem, by the end of 2027, Chubb Limited's 20 percent ownership interest in Chubb INA.
The U.S. insurance subsidiaries of Chubb INA may pay dividends, without prior regulatory approval, subject to restrictions set out in state law of the subsidiary’s domicile (or, if applicable, commercial domicile). Chubb INA’s international subsidiaries are
also subject to insurance laws and regulations particular to the countries in which the subsidiaries operate. These laws and regulations sometimes include restrictions that limit the amount of dividends payable without prior approval of regulatory insurance authorities. Chubb Limited received no dividends from Chubb INA during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024. Debt issued by Chubb INA is serviced by statutorily permissible distributions by Chubb INA’s insurance subsidiaries to Chubb INA as well as other group resources. Chubb INA received dividends of $1.8 billion from its subsidiaries during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024.
Cash Flows
Our sources of liquidity include cash from operations, routine sales of investments, and financing arrangements. The following is a discussion of our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
Operating cash flows were $8.8 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $11.6 billion in the prior year period, primarily due to higher net losses and income taxes paid, partially offset by higher premiums collected and higher net investment income.
Cash used for investing was $8.9 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $11.4 billion in the prior year period, a decrease of $2.5 billion, primarily due to lower net purchases of fixed maturities, equity, and short-term securities of $3.4 billion. This activity was partially offset by the impact of net private equity contributions of $1.1 billion in the current year compared to net private equity distributions of $311 million received in the prior year period.
Cash used for financing was $189 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $62 million in the prior year period, an increase of $127 million. This was primarily due to higher common share repurchases of $1.2 billion, lower net policyholder deposits of $65 million, and lower proceeds from employee share-based compensation plans of $92 million, partially offset by higher net third-party capital invested into consolidated investment products of $757 million and higher repurchase agreement borrowings of $469 million.
We use repurchase agreements as a low-cost alternative source of liquidity within our operating subsidiaries. At September 30, 2025, there were $3.4 billion in repurchase agreements outstanding with various maturities over the next eight months.
Both internal and external forces influence our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Claim settlements, premium levels, and investment returns may be impacted by changing rates of inflation and other economic conditions. In many cases, significant periods of time, ranging up to several years or more, may lapse between the occurrence of an insured loss, the reporting of the loss to us, and the settlement of the liability for that loss.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Foreign currency management
As a global company, Chubb entities transact business in multiple currencies. Our policy is to generally match assets, liabilities and required capital for each individual jurisdiction in local currency, which would include the use of derivatives. We occasionally engage in hedging activity for planned cross border transactions. For an estimated impact of foreign currency movement on our net assets denominated in non-U.S. currencies, refer to Item 7A in our 2024 Form 10-K. This information will be updated and disclosed in interim filings if our net assets in non-U.S. currencies change materially from the December 31, 2024, balances disclosed in the 2024 Form 10-K.
Reinsurance of market risk benefits
Chubb views its MRB reinsurance business as having a similar risk profile to that of catastrophe reinsurance, with the probability of long-term economic loss relatively small at the time of pricing. Adverse changes in market factors and policyholder behavior will have an impact on both MRB gains (losses) and net income. When evaluating these risks, we expect to be compensated for taking both the risk of a cumulative long-term economic net loss, as well as the short-term accounting variations caused by these market movements. Therefore, we evaluate this business in terms of its long-term economic risk and reward.
The tables below are estimates of the sensitivities to instantaneous changes in economic inputs (e.g., equity shock, interest rate shock etc.) at September 30, 2025, for both the fair value of the MRB liability (FVL) and the fair value of specific derivative instruments held (hedge value) to partially offset the risk in the MRB reinsurance portfolio. The following assumptions should be considered when using the below tables:
•Equity shocks impact all global equity markets equally
•Our liabilities are sensitive to global equity markets in the following proportions: 80 percent—90 percent U.S. equity, and 10 percent—20 percent international equity.
•Our current hedge portfolio is sensitive only to U.S. equity markets.
•We would suggest using the S&P 500 index as a proxy for U.S. equity, and the MSCI EAFE index as a proxy for international equity.
•Interest rate shocks assume a parallel shift in the U.S. yield curve
•Our liabilities are also sensitive to global interest rates at various points on the yield curve, mainly the U.S. Treasury curve in the following proportions: up to 15 percent short-term rates (maturing in less than 5 years), 10 percent—30 percent medium-term rates (maturing between 5 years and 10 years, inclusive), and 65 percent—85 percent long-term rates (maturing beyond 10 years).
•A change in AA-rated credit spreads impacts the rate used to discount cash flows in the fair value model. AA-rated credit spreads are a proxy for both our own credit spreads and the credit spreads of the ceding insurers.
•The hedge sensitivity is from September 30, 2025, market levels and only applicable to the equity and interest rate sensitivities table below.
•The sensitivities do not scale linearly and may be proportionally greater for larger movements in the market factors. Actual sensitivity of our net income may differ from those disclosed in the tables below due to fluctuations in short-term market movements.

Market Risk Benefits Net Amount at Risk
All our MRB reinsurance treaties include annual or aggregate claim limits and many include an aggregate deductible which limit the net amount at risk under these programs. The tables below present the net amount at risk at September 30, 2025, following an immediate change in equity market levels, assuming all global equity markets are impacted equally.

The treaty limits function as a ceiling as equity markets fall. As the shocks in the table above become incrementally more negative, the impacts begin to drop due to the specific nature of these claim limits, many of which are annual claim limits calculated as a percentage of the reinsured account value. There is also an impact due to a portion of the book under which claims are positively correlated to equity markets (claims decrease as equity markets fall).
b) Reinsurance covering the GLB risk only
