The proceeds from the issuance of the Series 2014-1 Notes, the Series 2014-2 Notes and the Series 2015-1 Notes are held in reinsurance trust throughout the duration of the applicable reinsurance agreements and invested solely in US government money market funds with a rating of at least “AAAm” by Standard & Poor’s.
RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS Fluctuations in the financial markets could result in investment losses.
Prolonged and severe disruptions in the overall public debt and equity markets, such as occurred during 2008, could result in significant realized and unrealized losses in our investment portfolio.
Although financial markets have significantly improved since 2008, they could deteriorate in the future.
There could also be disruption in individual market sectors, such as occurred in the energy sector in recent years.
Such declines in the financial markets could result in significant realized and unrealized losses on investments and could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, equity, business and insurer financial strength and debt ratings.
Our results could be adversely affected by catastrophic events.
We are exposed to unpredictable catastrophic events, including weather-related and other natural catastrophes, as well as acts of terrorism.
Any material reduction in our operating results caused by the occurrence of one or more catastrophes could inhibit our ability to pay dividends or to meet our interest and principal payment obligations.
By way of illustration, during the past five calendar years, pre-tax catastrophe losses, net of contract specific reinsurance but before cessions under corporate reinsurance programs, were as follows:
## Table 1 ##
Our losses from future catastrophic events could exceed our projections.
We use projections of possible losses from future catastrophic events of varying types and magnitudes as a strategic underwriting tool.
We use these loss projections to estimate our potential catastrophe losses in certain geographic areas and decide on the placement of retrocessional coverage or other actions to limit the extent of potential losses in a given geographic area.
These loss projections are approximations, reliant on a mix of quantitative and qualitative processes, and actual losses may exceed the projections by a material amount, resulting in a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
The following discusses the underwriting results for each of our segments for the periods indicated.
U. S.  Reinsurance.
The following table presents the underwriting results and ratios for the U. S.  Reinsurance segment for the periods indicated.

Premiums.
Gross written premiums decreased by 1.0% to $2,125.8 million in 2016 from $2,147.9 million in 2015, primarily due to a decrease in treaty property business, partially offset by an increase in treaty casualty business.
Net written premiums increased by 6.2% to $1,970.6 million in 2016 compared to $1,855.9 million in 2015.
The difference between the change in gross written premiums compared to the change in net written premiums is primarily due to the assumption of the crop business due to the sale of Heartland and a concurrent new crop reinsurance contract.
Premiums earned increased 6.1% to $2,072.2 million in 2016, compared to $1,952.7 million in 2015.
The change in premiums earned relative to net written premiums is primarily the result of timing; premiums are earned ratably over the coverage period whereas written premiums are recorded at the initiation of the coverage period.
Gross written premiums decreased by 0.3% to $2,147.9 million in 2015 from $2,154.5 million in 2014, primarily due to a decrease in treaty casualty business resulting from the cancellation of some contracts.
Net written premiums decreased by 6.4% to $1,855.9 million in 2015 compared to $1,983.8 million in 2014.
The difference between the change in gross written premiums compared to the change in net written premiums was due to a higher utilization of reinsurance.
Premiums earned decreased 1.7% to $1,952.7 million in 2015 compared to $1,986.8 million in 2014.
The change in premiums earned relative to net written premiums is primarily the result of timing; premiums are earned ratably over the coverage period whereas written premiums are recorded at the initiation of the coverage period.
