1. | Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation |
References to “the Company” refer to Global Indemnity Group, LLC and its subsidiaries. If prior to August 28, 2020, references to the Company refer to Global Indemnity Limited and its subsidiaries.
Global Indemnity Group, LLC (“Global Indemnity” or “the Company”), a Delaware limited liability company formed on June 23, 2020, replaced Global Indemnity Limited, incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability, as the ultimate parent company of the Global Indemnity group of companies as a result of a redomestication transaction completed on August 28, 2020. Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s class A common shares are publicly traded on the NASDAQ Global Select MarketNew York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol GBLI. Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s predecessors have been publicly traded since 2003. See Note 2 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 Part II of the Company’s 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding the redomestication.
On October 26, 2021, the Company sold the renewal rights related to its manufactured and dwelling homes products which was part of the Specialty Property segment. The Company previously decided to cease writing certain Property Brokerage business which was part of the Commercial Specialty segment, as well as exit certain property and catastrophe lines within the Reinsurance Operations segment. Based on the decisions to exit these lines of business, the Company changed the way it manages and analyzes its operating results. The chief operating decision makers, the Chief Executive as well as the Chief Operating Officer, decided they will be reviewing the specific results of the exited lines separately. The chief operating decision makers also determined that the small amount of specialty property business that remained from the Specialty Property segment would be included as programs in the Commercial Specialty segment for purpose of reviewing results and allocating resources. The Reinsurance Operations segment will continue to write casualty and professional treaties as well as individual excess policies. The Farm, Ranch & Stable segment was not impacted by these decisions and will continue to be reported as a segment. Accordingly, the Company will have four reportable segments: Commercial Specialty, Reinsurance Operations, Farm, Ranch & Stable, and Exited Lines. Management believes these segments will allow users of the Company’s financial statements to better understand the Company's performance, better assess prospects for future net cash flows and to make more informed judgments about the Company as a whole. The segment results for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 have been revised to reflect these changes. See Note 13 for additional information regarding segments.

The Company regularly performs various analytical valuation procedures with respect to its investments, including reviewing each available for sale debt security in an unrealized loss position to assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost basis has resulted from a credit loss or other factors. In assessing whether a credit loss exists, the Company compares the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis of the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for expected credit losses is recorded. Subsequent changes in the allowances are recorded in the period of change as either credit loss expense or reversal of credit loss expense. Any impairments related to factors other than credit losses and the intent to sell are recorded through other comprehensive income, net of taxes.

GLOBAL INDEMNITY GROUP, LLC
For fixed maturities, the factors considered in reaching the conclusion that a credit loss exists include, among others, whether:
| (1) | the extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis; |
| (2) | the issuer is in financial distress; |
| (3) | the investment is secured; |
| (4) | a significant credit rating action occurred; |
| (5) | scheduled interest payments were delayed or missed; |
| (6) | changes in laws or regulations have affected an issuer or industry; |
| (7) | the investment has an unrealized loss and was identified by the Company’s investment manager as an investment to be sold before recovery or maturity; |
| (8) | the investment failed cash flow projection testing to determine if anticipated principal and interest payments will be realized; and |
| (9) | changes in US Treasury rates and/or credit spreads since original purchase to identify whether the unrealized loss is simply due to interest rate movement. |
According to accounting guidance for debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company is required to assess whether it has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before the anticipated recovery. If either of these conditions is met, any allowance for expected credit losses is written off and the amortized cost basis is written down to the fair value of the fixed maturity security with any incremental impairment reported in earnings. That new amortized cost basis shall not be adjusted for subsequent recoveries in fair value.
The Company elected the practical expedient to exclude accrued interest from both the fair value and the amortized cost basis of the available for sale debt securities for the purposes of identifying and measuring an impairment and to not measure an allowance for expected credit losses for accrued interest receivables. Accrued interest receivable is written off through net realized investment gains (losses) at the time the issuer of the bond defaults or is expected to default on payment. The Company made an accounting policy election to present the accrued interest receivable balance with other assets on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position. Accrued interest receivable related to fixed maturities was $5.5 million and $5.7$5.2 million as of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.
The following is a description, by asset type, of the methodology and significant inputs that the Company used to measure the amount of credit loss recognized in earnings, if any:
U.S. treasuries – As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, gross unrealized losses related to U.S. treasuries were $1.632$1.490 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, macroeconomic and market analysis is conducted in evaluating these securities. Consideration is given to the interest rate environment, duration and yield curve management of the portfolio, sector allocation and security selection. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on U.S. treasuries during the period.
Agency obligations – As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, gross unrealized losses related to agency obligations were $0.151less than $0.001 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, macroeconomic and market analysis is conducted in evaluating these securities. Consideration is given to the interest rate environment, duration and yield curve management of the portfolio, sector allocation and security selection. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on agency obligations during the period.
Obligations of states and political subdivisions – As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, gross unrealized losses related to obligations of states and political subdivisions were $0.163$0.588 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, elements that may influence the performance of the municipal bond market are considered in evaluating these securities such as investor expectations, supply and demand patterns, and current versus historical yield and spread relationships. The analysis relies on the output of fixed income credit analysts, as well as dedicated municipal bond analysts who perform extensive in-house fundamental analysis on each issuer, regardless of their rating by the major agencies. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on obligations of states and political subdivisions during the period.

Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) – As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, gross unrealized losses related to mortgage-backed securities were $1.417$1.279 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, mortgage-backed securities are modeled to project principal losses under downside, base, and upside scenarios for the economy and home prices. The primary assumption that drives the security and loan level modeling is the Home Price Index (“HPI”) projection. These forecasts incorporate not just national macro-economic trends, but also regional impacts to arrive at the most granular and accurate projections. These assumptions are incorporated into the model as a basis to generate delinquency probabilities, default curves, loss severity curves, and voluntary prepayment curves at the loan level within each deal. The model utilizes HPI-adjusted current loan to value, payment history, loan terms, loan modification history, and borrower characteristics as inputs to generate expected cash flows and principal loss for each bond under various scenarios. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on mortgage-backed securities during the period.
Asset backed securities (“ABS”) - As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, gross unrealized losses related to asset backed securities were $0.436$3.385 million. The weighted average credit enhancement for the Company’s asset backed portfolio is 32.4.33.3. This represents the percentage of pool losses that can occur before an asset backed security will incur its first dollar of principal losses. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, every ABS transaction is analyzed on a stand-alone basis. This analysis involves a thorough review of the collateral, prepayment, and structural risk in each transaction. Additionally, the analysis includes an in-depth credit analysis of the originator and servicer of the collateral. The analysis projects an expected loss for a deal given a set of assumptions specific to the asset type. These assumptions are used to calculate at what level of losses the deal will incur its first dollar of principal loss. The major assumptions used to calculate this ratio are loss severities, recovery lags, and no advances on principal and interest. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on asset backed securities during the period.
Commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) - As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, gross unrealized losses related to the CMBS portfolio were $0.266$2.074 million. The weighted average credit enhancement for the Company’s CMBS portfolio is 39.4.41.1. This represents the percentage of pool losses that can occur before a commercial mortgage-backed security will incur its first dollar of principal loss. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, a loan level analysis is utilized where every underlying CMBS loan is re-underwritten based on a set of assumptions reflecting expectations for the future path of the economy. Each loan is analyzed over time using a series of tests to determine if a credit event will occur during the life of the loan. Inherent in this process are several economic scenarios and their corresponding rent/vacancy and capital market states. The five primary credit events that frame the analysis include loan modifications, term default, balloon default, extension, and ability to pay off at balloon. The resulting output is the expected loss adjusted cash flows for each bond under the base case and distressed scenarios. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on commercial mortgage-backed securities during the period.
Corporate bonds - As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, gross unrealized losses related to corporate bonds were $1.249$6.118 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, analysis for this asset class includes maintaining detailed financial models that include a projection of each issuer’s future financial performance, including prospective debt servicing capabilities, capital structure composition, and the value of the collateral. The analysis incorporates the macroeconomic environment, industry conditions in which the issuer operates, the issuer’s current competitive position, its vulnerability to changes in the competitive and regulatory environment, issuer liquidity, issuer commitment to bondholders, issuer creditworthiness, and asset protection. Part of the process also includes running downside scenarios to evaluate the expected likelihood of default as well as potential losses in the event of default. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on corporate bonds during the period.
Foreign bonds – As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, gross unrealized losses related to foreign bonds were $0.342$3.197 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, detailed financial models are maintained that include a projection of each issuer’s future financial performance, including prospective debt servicing capabilities, capital structure composition, and the value of the collateral. The analysis incorporates the macroeconomic environment, industry conditions in which the issuer operates, the issuer’s current competitive position, its vulnerability to changes in the competitive and regulatory environment, issuer liquidity, issuer commitment to bondholders, issuer creditworthiness, and asset protection. Part of the process also includes running downside scenarios to evaluate the expected likelihood of default as well as potential losses in the event of default. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on foreign bonds during the period.

In response to a rising interest rate environment, the Company took action early in April 2022 to shorten the duration of its fixed maturities portfolio. The Company identified fixed maturities securities with a weighted average life of five years or greater as having an intent to sell. These securities had a fair market value of $365.3 million and a book value of $390.8 million at March 31, 2022 prior to impairment. Most of the proceeds from the sale of these securities will be reinvested into fixed income investments with maturities of two years and less.

Variable Interest Entities
A Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) refers to an investment in which an investor holds a controlling interest that is not based on the majority of voting rights. Under the VIE model, the party that has the power to exercise significant management influence and maintain a controlling financial interest in the entity’s economics is said to be the primary beneficiary, and is required to consolidate the entity within their results. Other entities that participate in a VIE, for which their financial interests fluctuate with changes in the fair value of the investment entity’s net assets but do not have significant management influence and the ability to direct the VIE’s significant economic activities are said to have a variable interest in the VIE but do not consolidate the VIE in their financial results.
The Company has variable interests in 4 VIE’s for which it is not the primary beneficiary. These investments are accounted for under the equity method of accounting as their ownership interest exceeds 3% of their respective investments.
The carrying value of one of the Company’s VIE’s, which invests in distressed securities and assets, was $9.3$6.4 million and $10.8$8.6 million as of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

| Fair Value Measurements |
The accounting standards related to fair value measurements define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, outline a fair value hierarchy based on inputs used to measure fair value, and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. These standards do not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. The Company has determined that its fair value measurements are in accordance with the requirements of these accounting standards.
1918
GLOBAL INDEMNITY GROUP, LLC
The Company’s invested assets and derivative instruments are carried at their fair value and are categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy:
| • | Level 1 – inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. |
| • | Level 2 – inputs utilize other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for similar assets, either directly or indirectly. |
| • | Level 3 – inputs are unobservable for the asset, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset. |
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset.
The following table presents information about the Company’s invested assets and derivative instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value.

The securities classified as Level 1 in the above table consist of U.S. treasuries and equity securities actively traded on an exchange.
The securities classified as Level 2 in the above table consist primarily of fixed maturitymaturities, equity securities, and derivative instruments. Based on the typical trading volumes and the lack of quoted market prices for fixed maturities, security prices are derived through recent reported trades for identical or similar securities making adjustments through the reporting date based upon available market observable information. If there are no recent reported trades, matrix or model processes are used to develop a security price where future cash flow expectations are developed based upon collateral performance and discounted at an estimated market rate. Included in the pricing of asset-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and mortgage-backed securities are estimates of the rate of future prepayments of principal over the remaining life of the securities. Such estimates are derived based on the characteristics of the underlying structure and prepayment speeds previously experienced at the interest rate levels projected for the underlying collateral. The estimated fair value of the derivative instruments, consisting of interest rate swaps, is obtained from a third party financial institution that utilizes observable inputs such as the forward interest rate curve.
The investments classified as Level 3 in the above table consist of fixed maturities and equity securities with unobservable inputs. The Company does not have access to daily valuations; therefore, market trades, performance of the underlying assets, and key risks are considered in order to estimate fair values of these debt instruments.

Limited Liability Companies and Limited Partnerships with ownership interest exceeding 3%
The Company uses the equity method to account for investments in limited liability companies and limited partnerships where its ownership interest exceeds 3%. The equity method of accounting for an investment in limited liability companies and limited partnerships requires that its cost basis be updated to account for the income or loss earned on the investment. In the Fair Value of Alternative Investments table above, all of the investments, except for the Credit Fund, LLC, are booked on a one quarter lag due to non-availability of data at the time the financial statements are prepared. Information for the Credit Fund, LLC is received on a timely basis and is included in current results. The investment income (loss) associated with the limited liability companies and limited partnerships whose ownership interest exceeds 3% is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the amounts of $2.6$(0.1) million and $3.5$3.0 million for the quarters ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively, and $9.3 million and ($8.0) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Pricing
The Company’s pricing vendors provide prices for all investment categories except for investments in limited liability companies and limited partnerships. Two primary vendors are utilized to provide prices for equity and fixed maturity securities.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used by the Company’s pricing vendors for investment securities carried at fair value:
| • | Equity security prices are received from primary and secondary exchanges. |
| • | Corporate and agency bonds are evaluated by utilizing a spread to a benchmark curve. Bonds with similar characteristics are grouped into specific sectors. Inputs for both asset classes consist of trade prices, broker quotes, the new issue market, and prices on comparable securities. |
| • | Data from commercial vendors is aggregated with market information, then converted into an option adjusted spread (“OAS”) matrix and prepayment model used for collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMO”). CMOs are categorized with mortgage-backed securities in the tables listed above. For asset-backed securities, spread data is derived from trade prices, dealer quotations, and research reports. For both asset classes, evaluations utilize standard inputs plus new issue data, and collateral performance. The evaluated pricing models incorporate cash flows, broker quotes, market trades, historical prepayment speeds, and dealer projected speeds. |
| • | For obligations of state and political subdivisions, an attribute-based modeling system is used. The pricing model incorporates trades, market clearing yields, market color, and fundamental credit research. |
| • | U.S. treasuries are evaluated by obtaining feeds from a number of live data sources including primary and secondary dealers as well as inter-dealer brokers. |
| • | For mortgage-backed securities, various external analytical products are utilized and purchased from commercial vendors. |
22
GLOBAL INDEMNITY GROUP, LLC
The Company performs certain procedures to validate whether the pricing information received from the pricing vendors is reasonable, to ensure that the fair value determination is consistent with accounting guidance, and to ensure that its assets are properly classified in the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s procedures include, but are not limited to:
| • | Reviewing periodic reports provided by the Investment Manager that provides information regarding rating changes and securities placed on watch. This procedure allows the Company to understand why a particular security’s market value may have changed or may potentially change. |
| • | Understanding and periodically evaluating the various pricing methods and procedures used by the Company’s pricing vendors to ensure that investments are properly classified within the fair value hierarchy. |
| • | On a quarterly basis, the Company corroborates investment security prices received from its pricing vendors by obtaining pricing from a second pricing vendor for a sample of securities. |
During the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, the Company has not adjusted quotes or prices obtained from the pricing vendors.
| Allowance for Expected Credit Losses - Premium Receivables and Reinsurance Receivables |
For premium receivables, the allowance is based upon the Company’s ongoing review of key aspects of amounts outstanding, including but not limited to, length of collection periods, direct placement with collection agencies, solvency of insured or agent, terminated agents, and other relevant factors.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. For leases with a term of greater than 12 months, lease right-of-use assets (“ROU”) and lease liabilities are included on the consolidated balance sheets.
Lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The ROU assets are calculated using the initial lease liability amount, plus any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, minus any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred.
The Company’s lease agreements may contain both lease and non-lease components which are accounted separately. The Company elected the practical expedient on not separating lease components from non-lease components for its equipment leases.

The Company leases office space and equipment under various operating lease arrangements. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 3 months to 9 years. Some building leases have options to extend, terminate, or retract the leased area. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company exercised the contraction clause of 1 of its leases. The Company incurred a $0.3 million contraction fee in conjunction with exercising the contraction clause. The related ROU asset and lease liability were revalued when the Company exercised the contraction clause. The Company did not factor in any other term extension, terminations, or space retractions into the lease terms used to calculate the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities since it was uncertain as to whether these options would be executed.
Lease expenses for minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Any resulting volatility in the global financial markets may negatively impact the market value of the Company’s investment portfolio and may result in net realized investment losses as well as a decline in the liquidity of the investment portfolio. All of these factors may have far reaching impacts on the Company’s business, operations, and financial results and conditions, directly and indirectly, including without limitation impacts on the health of the Company’s management and employees, distribution, marketing, customers and agents, and on the overall economy. The scope and nature of these impacts, most of which are beyond the Company’s control, continue to evolve and such effects could exist for an extended period of time even after the pandemic ends.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which require it to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

GLOBAL INDEMNITY GROUP, LLC
The most critical accounting policies involve significant estimates and include those used in determining the liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, recoverability of reinsurance receivables, investments, fair value measurements, goodwill and intangible assets, deferred acquisition costs, and taxation. For a detailed discussion on each of these policies, please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021. There have been no significant changes to any of these policies or underlying methodologies during the current year except for the following:year.
The receipt of results for investments in limited partnerships and limited liability companies may vary. If results are received on a timely basis, they are included in current results. If they are not received on a timely basis, they are recorded on a one quarter lag. The recording of such results is applied consistently for each investment once the timing of receiving the results has been established.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and ratios
The table below reconciles the non-GAAP measures or ratios, which excludes the impact of prior accident year adjustments, to its most directly comparable GAAP measure or ratio. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures or ratios are useful to investors when evaluating the Company's underwriting performance as trends within Commercial Specialty may be obscured by prior accident year adjustments. These non-GAAP measures or ratios should not be considered as a substitute for its most directly comparable GAAP measure or ratio and does not reflect the overall underwriting profitability of the Company.

COVID-19
COVID-19’s lasting impacts could result in declines in business, non-payment of premiums, and increases in claims that could adversely affect Commercial Specialty’s business, financial condition, and results of operation.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and ratios
The table belowabove reconciles the non-GAAP measures or ratios, which excludes the impact of prior accident year adjustments, to its most directly comparable GAAP measure or ratio. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures or ratios are useful to investors when evaluating the Company's underwriting performance as trends within Specialty PropertyReinsurance Operations may be obscured by prior accident year adjustments. These non-GAAP measures or ratios should not be considered as a substitute for its most directly comparable GAAP measure or ratio and does not reflect the overall underwriting profitability of the Company.

Expense Ratios
The expense ratio for the Company’s Farm, Ranch & Stable Segment increased by 3.20.1 points from 37.3%38.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 to 40.5%38.6% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and increased 0.4 points from 39.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to 39.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in the expense ratio is primarily due to a reduction in earned premiums partially offset by a reduction in the commission rate partially driven by a change in agent distribution.March 31, 2022.
COVID-19
There is continued risk that legislation could be passed or there could be a court ruling which would require the Company to cover business interruption claims regardless of terms, exclusions including the virus exclusions contained within the Company’s Farm, Ranch & Stable policies, or other conditions included in these policies that would otherwise preclude coverage.
COVID-19’s lasting impacts could result in declines in business, non-payment of premiums, and increases in claims that could adversely affect Farm, Ranch & Stable’s business, financial condition, and results of operation.

In addition, the liquidity of the Company’s investment portfolio could be negatively impacted by disruption experienced in global financial markets.

For the quarter ending September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, global equities fell approximately 1.0%5.0% with U.S. equities outperforming, returninglosing approximately 0.6%4.6%. Most assets experienced elevated volatility over the quarter as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent imposition of financial sanctions added stress to already fragile global supply chains and raised concerns over commodity supplies. This amplified inflationary fears and contributed to more hawkish stances from central banks, higher global yields and flattening curves. U.S. fixed income returnedlost approximately 0.1%5.9% with the average spread nearly unchanged while 10 year treasury rates declined to startmoving wider during the quarter before retracing all ofquarter. In the decline by quarter end. As market participants gain confidence aroundU.S., yields rose and the curve inverted along several key tenors as the Federal Reserve’s plans to taper asset purchasesReserve hiked interest rates by approximately 25 basis points and signaled larger hikes going forward. Unemployment remains at very low levels and the endconsumer balance sheet is strong, two factors that should help mitigate the stresses of the year, the focus begins to shift toward tightening, and with that a renewed emphasis on data dependency, particularly regarding potentially elevated levels ofhigher inflation and unemployment metrics. In termsrising rates.
During the 1st quarter of fiscal policy, democrats struggle to work with their thin majorities in both houses to pass an infrastructure and social spending plan as well as an extension of the debt ceiling.

While we have seen heightened market volatility of late, spreads remain at tight levels.
