a)    Concentrations of Credit RiskCredit Risk AggregationThe Company monitors and manages the aggregation of credit risk on a group-wide basis allowing it to consider exposure management strategies for individual companies, countries, regions, sectors and any other relevant inter-dependencies. The Company's credit exposures are aggregated based on the origin of risk. Credit risk aggregation is also managed through minimizing overlaps in underwriting, financing and investing activities. As part of its credit aggregation framework, the Company also assigns aggregate credit limits by country and by single counterparty (or parent of affiliated counterparties). These limits are based on and adjusted for a variety of factors including the prevailing economic environment and the nature of the underlying credit exposures.The Company's credit aggregation measurement and reporting process is facilitated by its credit risk exposure database, which contains relevant information on counterparty details and credit risk exposures. The database is accessible by management throughout the Company, therefore providing transparency to allow for the implementation of active exposure management strategies. The Company also licenses third-party tools to provide credit risk assessments. The Company monitors all its credit aggregations and, where appropriate, adjusts its internal risk limits and/or takes specific actions to reduce our risk exposures.The assets that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and investments, reinsurance recoverable
