Basis of Presentation [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation Loews Corporation is a holding company. Its subsidiaries are engaged in the following lines of business: commercial property and casualty insurance (CNA Financial Corporation (“CNA”), an owned subsidiary); transportation and storage of natural gas and natural gas liquids (Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP (“Boardwalk Pipelines”), a wholly owned subsidiary); and the operation of a chain of hotels (Loews Hotels Holding Corporation (“Loews Hotels & Co”), a wholly owned subsidiary). Unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Company” as used herein means Loews Corporation including its subsidiaries, the term “Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation” as used herein means Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation shareholders On April 1, 2021, Loews Corporation sold 47% of its interest in Altium Packaging, previously a 99% owned subsidiary. See Note 2 for further discussion. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and changes in shareholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Net income (loss) for the second quarter and first half of each of the years is not necessarily indicative of net income (loss) for that entire year. These Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company presents basic and diluted net income (loss) per share on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. Basic net income (loss) per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 there were no shares attributable to employee stock-based compensation awards excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding amounts because the effect would have been antidilutive. Recently issued ASUs – In August of 2018 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-12 “Financial Services – Insurance (Topic 944 : Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts.” The updated accounting guidance requires changes to the measurement and disclosure of long-duration contracts. The guidance requires entities to update annually cash flow assumptions, including morbidity and persistency, and update quarterly discount rate assumptions using an upper-medium grade fixed-income instrument yield. The effect of changes in cash flow assumptions will be recorded in Net income and the effect of changes in discount rate assumptions will be recorded in Other comprehensive income (“OCI”). |

Significant Transactions [Abstract] | |
Significant Transactions | 2. Significant Transactions Altium Packaging On April 1, 2021, Loews Corporation sold 47% of its interest in Altium Packaging to GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund for $420 million in cash consideration. Loews Corporation will share certain participating rights with GIC related to capital allocation and other decisions by Altium Packaging. Therefore, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, “Consolidation,” Altium Packaging was deconsolidated from Loews Corporation’s consolidated financial statements effective as of April 1, 2021. Effective April 1, 2021, Loews Corporation’s investment in Altium Packaging is accounted for under the equity method of accounting, with the investment reported in Other assets on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets and equity income (loss) reported in Operating expenses and other on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. The transaction resulted in a gain of $555 million ($438 million after tax) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, which is recorded in Investment gains (losses) on the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations. Loews Corporation’s retained investment in Altium Packaging was recorded at an estimated fair value of $473 million. The difference between the fair value of Loews Corporation’s investment in Altium Packaging and Loews Corporation’s 53% share of the carrying value of Altium Packaging’s net assets was attributed to definite lived intangible assets and goodwill. The amortization of the amounts attributed to definite lived intangible assets will be recognized as a component of equity income (loss) reported in Operating expenses and other on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. The assets and liabilities deconsolidated from the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets were property, plant and equipment of $490 million, goodwill of $436 million, intangible assets of $488 million, other assets of approximately $370 million, long term debt of $1.1 billion and other liabilities of approximately $380 million. Diamond Offshore As a result of the April 26, 2020 (“the Filing Date”) bankruptcy filing of Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc. (“Diamond Offshore”) and certain of its subsidiaries and applicable accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), Diamond Offshore was deconsolidated from Loews Corporation’s consolidated financial statements in the second quarter of 2020. Through the Filing Date, Diamond Offshore’s results were included in Loews Corporation’s consolidated financial statements and Loews Corporation recognized in its earnings its proportionate share of Diamond Offshore’s losses through such date. The deconsolidation resulted in the recognition of a loss of $1.2 billion ($957 million after tax) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, which is reported within Investment gains (losses) on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. During the first quarter of 2020, Diamond Offshore recorded an aggregate asset impairment charge of $774 million ($408 million after tax and noncontrolling interests), which is reported within Operating expenses and other on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. For additional information regarding the deconsolidation of Diamond Offshore and the Diamond Offshore asset impairments, see Notes 2 and 6 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. |

When presented in AOCI, these amounts are net of tax and noncontrolling interests and any required Shadow Adjustments. To the extent that unrealized gains on fixed income securities supporting long term care products and structured settlements not funded by annuities would result in a premium deficiency if those gains were realized, a related increase in Insurance reserves is recorded, net of tax and noncontrolling interests, as a reduction of net unrealized gains through Other comprehensive income (loss) (“Shadow Adjustments”). As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the net unrealized gains on investments included in AOCI were correspondingly reduced by Shadow Adjustments of $2.4 billion and $2.5 billion (after tax and noncontrolling interests). The available-for-sale securities in a gross unrealized loss position for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded are as follows: Less than 12 Months 12 Months or Longer Total June 30 2021 Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses (In millions) Fixed maturity securities: Corporate and other bonds $ 1,190 $ 33 $ 61 $ 2 $ 1,251 $ 35 States, municipalities and political subdivisions 128 2 128 2 Asset-backed: Residential mortgage-backed 932 10 10 942 10 Commercial mortgage-backed 153 2 206 12 359 14 Other asset-backed 255 2 74 1 329 3 Total asset-backed 1,340 14 290 13 1,630 27 U.S. Treasury and obligations of government-sponsored enterprises 80 5 80 5 Foreign government 48 1 48 1 Total fixed maturity securities $ 2,786 $ 55 $ 351 $ 15 $ 3,137 $ 70 December 31 2020 Fixed maturity securities: Corporate and other bonds $ 609 $ 21 $ 12 $ 1 $ 621 $ 22 States, municipalities and political subdivisions 33 33 Asset-backed: Residential mortgage-backed 71 1 11 82 1 Commercial mortgage-backed 533 40 28 2 561 42 Other asset-backed 344 9 13 357 9 Total asset-backed 948 50 52 2 1,000 52 U.S. Treasury and obligations of government-sponsored enterprises 63 3 63 3 Foreign government 13 13 Total fixed maturity securities $ 1,666 $ 74 $ 64 $ 3 $ 1,730 $ 77 Based on current facts and circumstances, the Company believes the unrealized losses presented in the June 30, 2021 securities in a gross unrealized loss position table above are not indicative of the ultimate collectability of the current amortized cost of the securities, but rather are attributable to changes in interest rates, credit spreads and other factors. There is no current intent to sell securities with unrealized losses, nor is it more likely than not that sale will be required prior to recovery of amortized cost; accordingly, it was determined that there are additional impairment losses to be recorded at Contractual Maturity The following table presents available-for-sale fixed maturity securities by contractual maturity.

Securities not due at a single date are allocated based on weighted average life. Mortgage Loans The following table presents the amortized cost basis of mortgage loans for each credit quality indicator by year of origination. The primary credit quality indicators utilized are debt service coverage ratios (“DSCR”) and loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratios. Mortgage Loans Amortized Cost Basis by Origination Year (a) As of June 30 2021 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 Prior Total (In millions) DSCR ≥1.6x LTV less than 55% $ 89 $ 33 $ 50 $ 113 $ 183 $ 468 LTV 55% to 65% 19 9 4 32 LTV greater than 65% $ 5 6 24 35 DSCR 1.2x - 1.6x LTV less than 55% 16 5 71 92 LTV 55% to 65% 10 38 39 42 27 156 LTV greater than 65% 34 44 8 12 98 DSCR ≤1.2x LTV less than 55% 50 8 10 68 LTV 55% to 65% 47 47 LTV greater than 65% 29 7 36 Total $ 15 $ 161 $ 283 $ 92 $ 170 $ 311 $ 1,032 (a) The values in the table above reflect DSCR on a standardized amortization period and LTV ratios based on the most recent appraised values trended forward using changes in a commercial real estate price index. Derivative Financial Instruments A summary of the aggregate contractual or notional amounts and gross estimated fair values related to derivative financial instruments follows. The contractual or notional amounts for derivatives are used to calculate the exchange of contractual payments under related agreements and may not be representative of the potential for gain or loss on these instruments. Gross estimated fair values of derivative positions are currently presented in Equity securities, Receivables and Payable to brokers on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

Fair Value [Abstract] | |
Fair Value | 4. Fair Value Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy is used in selecting inputs, with the highest priority given to Level 1, as these are the most transparent or reliable: ● Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. ● Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. ● Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are not observable. Prices Control procedures are performed over information obtained from pricing services and brokers to ensure prices received represent a reasonable estimate of fair value and to confirm representations regarding whether inputs are observable or unobservable. Procedures may include: (i) the review of pricing service methodologies or broker pricing qualifications, (ii) back-testing, where past fair value estimates are compared to actual transactions executed in the market on similar dates, (iii) exception reporting, where period-over-period changes in price are reviewed and challenged with the pricing service or broker based on exception criteria and (iv) detailed analysis, where an independent analysis of the inputs and assumptions used to price individual securities is performed .

The availability of observable market information and quoted prices varies based on market conditions and trading volume. Valuation Methodologies and Inputs The following section describes the valuation methodologies and relevant inputs used to measure different financial instruments at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the instruments are generally classified. Fixed Maturity Securities Level 1 securities include highly liquid government securities and exchange traded bonds valued using quoted market prices. Level 2 securities include most other fixed maturity securities as the significant inputs are observable in the marketplace. All classes of Level 2 fixed maturity securities are valued using a methodology based on information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, a discounted cash flow methodology or a combination of both when necessary. Common inputs for all classes of fixed maturity securities include prices from recently executed transactions of similar securities, marketplace quotes, benchmark yields, spreads off benchmark yields, interest rates and U.S. Treasury or swap curves. Specifically for asset-backed securities, key inputs include prepayment and default projections based on past performance of the underlying collateral and current market data. Fixed maturity securities are primarily assigned to Level 3 in cases where broker/dealer quotes are significant inputs to the valuation, and there is a lack of transparency as to whether these quotes are based on information that is observable in the marketplace. Level 3 securities also include private placement debt securities whose fair value is determined using internal models with some inputs that are not market observable. Equity Securities Level 1 securities include publicly traded securities valued using quoted market prices. Level 2 securities are primarily valued using pricing for similar securities, recently executed transactions and other pricing models utilizing market observable inputs. Level 3 securities are primarily priced using broker/dealer quotes and internal models with some inputs that are not market observable. Derivative Financial Instruments Equity options are valued using quoted market prices and are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter derivatives, principally interest rate swaps, currency forwards, total return swaps, commodity swaps, equity warrants and options, are valued using inputs including broker/dealer quotes and are classified within Level 2 or Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy, depending on the amount of transparency as to whether these quotes are based on information that is observable in the marketplace. Short Term and Other Invested Assets Securities that are actively traded or have quoted prices are classified as Level 1. These securities include money market funds, treasury bills and exchange traded open-end funds valued using quoted market prices. Level 2 primarily includes commercial paper, for which all inputs are market observable. Fixed maturity securities purchased within one year of maturity are classified consistent with fixed maturity securities discussed above. Short term investments as presented in the tables above differ from the amounts presented in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets because certain short term investments, such as time deposits, are not measured at fair value. Significant Unobservable Inputs The following tables present quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs utilized in the fair value measurement of Level 3 assets. Valuations for assets and liabilities not presented in the tables below are primarily based on broker/dealer quotes for which there is a lack of transparency as to inputs used to develop the valuations. The quantitative detail of unobservable inputs from these broker quotes is neither provided nor reasonably available. The weighted average rate is calculated based on fair value. June 30 2021 Estimated Fair Value Valuation Techniques Unobservable Inputs Range (Weighted Average) (In millions) Fixed maturity securities $ 1,067 Discounted cash flow Credit spread 1% – 8% (2 %) December 31 2020 Fixed maturity securities $ 966 Discounted cash flow Credit spread 1% – 8% (3 %) For fixed maturity securities, an increase to the credit spread assumptions would result in a lower fair value measurement. Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value The carrying amount, estimated fair value and the level of the fair value hierarchy of the financial assets and liabilities which are not measured at fair value on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets are presented in the following tables. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of short term debt and long term debt exclude finance lease obligations. The carrying amounts reported on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets for cash and short term investments not carried at fair value and certain other assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to the short term nature of these items.

Claim and Claim Adjustment Expense Reserves [Abstract] | |
Claim and Claim Adjustment Expense Reserves | 5. Claim and Claim Adjustment Expense Reserves Property and casualty insurance claim and claim adjustment expense reserves represent the estimated amounts necessary to resolve all outstanding claims, including incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims as of the reporting date. Reserve projections are based primarily on detailed analysis of the facts in each case, experience with similar cases and various historical development patterns. Consideration is given to historical patterns such as claim reserving trends and settlement practices, loss payments, pending levels of unpaid claims and product mix, as well as court decisions and economic conditions, including inflation and public attitudes. All of these factors can affect the estimation of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves. Establishing claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, including claim and claim adjustment expense reserves for catastrophic events that have occurred, is an estimation process. Many factors can ultimately affect the final settlement of a claim and, therefore, the necessary reserve. Changes in the law, results of litigation, medical costs, the cost of repair materials and labor rates can affect ultimate claim costs. In addition, time can be a critical part of reserving determinations since the longer the span between the incidence of a loss and the payment or settlement of the claim, the more variable the ultimate settlement amount can be. Accordingly, short-tail claims, such as property damage claims, tend to be more reasonably estimable than long-tail claims, such as workers’ compensation, general liability and professional liability claims. Adjustments to prior year reserve estimates, if necessary, are reflected in the results of operations in the period that the need for such adjustments is determined. There can be no assurance that the ultimate cost for insurance losses will not exceed current estimates. Catastrophes are an inherent risk of the property and casualty insurance business and have contributed to material period-to-period fluctuations in the Company’s results of operations and/or equity. The Company reported catastrophe losses, net of reinsurance, of $54 million and $301 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and $179 million and $376 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Net catastrophe losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were related primarily to severe weather-related events. Net catastrophe losses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 included $182 million related to the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, $61 million related to civil unrest and $58 million related primarily to severe weather-related events. Net catastrophe losses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 included $195 million related to the COVID-19 pandemic, $61 million related to civil unrest and $120 million related primarily to severe weather-related events. Liability for Unpaid Claim and Claim Adjustment Expenses The following table presents a reconciliation between beginning and ending claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, including claim and claim adjustment expense reserves of other insurance operations. Six Months Ended June 30 2021 2020 (In millions) Reserves, beginning of year: Gross $ 22,706 $ 21,720 Ceded 4,005 3,835 Net reserves, beginning of year 18,701 17,885 Reduction of net reserves due to the excess workers’ compensation loss portfolio transfer (632 ) Net incurred claim and claim adjustment expenses: Provision for insured events of current year 2,930 2,899 Increase (decrease) in provision for insured events of prior years (78 ) 19 Amortization of discount 95 98 Total net incurred (a) 2,947 3,016 Net payments attributable to: Current year events (317 ) (256 ) Prior year events (1,949 ) (2,342 ) Total net payments (2,266 ) (2,598 ) Foreign currency translation adjustment and other (5 ) (35 ) Net reserves, end of period 18,745 18,268 Ceded reserves, end of period 4,735 4,002 Gross reserves, end of period $ 23,480 $ 22,270 (a) Total net incurred above does not agree to Insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits as reflected on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations due to amounts related to retroactive reinsurance deferred gain accounting, the loss on the excess workers’ compensation loss portfolio transfer, uncollectible reinsurance and benefit expenses related to future policy benefits, which are not reflected in the table above . Net Prior Year Development Changes in estimates of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves net of reinsurance, for prior years are defined as net prior year loss reserve development. These changes can be favorable or unfavorable. Favorable net prior year loss reserve development of $11 million and $28 million was recorded for commercial property and casualty operations (“Property & Casualty Operations”) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and favorable net prior year loss reserve development of $26 million and $43 million was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development of $40 million and $50 million was recorded for CNA’s operations outside of Property & Casualty Operations (“Other Insurance Operations”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The following table and discussion present details of the net prior year loss reserve development in Property & Casualty Operations and Other Insurance Operations: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 (In millions) Medical professional liability $ 8 $ 10 Other professional liability and management liability $ 10 $ (9 ) 10 (6 ) Surety (23 ) (38 ) (30 ) Commercial auto 30 15 30 24 Workers’ compensation (42 ) (61 ) (42 ) (74 ) Property and other 14 27 6 33 Other insurance operations 40 50 40 50 Total pretax (favorable) unfavorable development $ 29 $ 22 $ 14 $ 7 Three Months 2021 Favorable development in surety was primarily due to lower than expected frequency and lack of systemic activity in recent accident years. Unfavorable development in commercial auto was due to higher than expected claim severity in CNA’s construction and middle market businesses in recent accident years. Favorable development in workers’ compensation was due to favorable medical trends driving lower than expected severity in multiple accident years. Unfavorable development in other insurance operations was due to higher than expected emergence in mass tort exposures in older accident years primarily related to abuse. 2020 Unfavorable development in commercial auto was due to unfavorable claim severity in CNA’s middle market and construction businesses in accident years 2017 through 2019. Favorable development in workers’ compensation was due to favorable medical trends driving lower than expected severity in multiple accident years. Unfavorable development in property and other was primarily due to higher than expected large loss activity in CNA’s middle market, national accounts and marine business units in accident year 2019. Unfavorable development in other insurance operations was due to higher than expected emergence in mass tort exposures in older accident years primarily related to abuse. Six Months 2021 Favorable development in surety was primarily due to lower than expected frequency and lack of systemic activity in recent accident years.

Favorable development in workers’ compensation was due to favorable medical trends driving lower than expected severity in multiple accident years. Unfavorable development in property and other was primarily due to higher than expected large loss activity in CNA’s middle market, national accounts and marine business units in accident year 2019. Unfavorable development in other insurance operations was due to higher than expected emergence in mass tort exposures in older accident years primarily related to abuse. Asbestos & Environmental Pollution (“A&EP”) Reserves In 2010, Continental Casualty Company (“CCC”) together with several insurance subsidiaries completed a transaction with National Indemnity Company (“NICO”), a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., under which substantially all of their legacy A&EP liabilities were ceded to NICO through a loss portfolio transfer (“LPT”). At the effective date of the transaction, approximately $1.6 billion of net A&EP claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserves were ceded to NICO under a retroactive reinsurance agreement with an aggregate limit of $4.0 billion. The $1.6 billion of claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserves ceded to NICO was net of $1.2 billion of ceded claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserves under existing third party reinsurance contracts. The NICO LPT aggregate reinsurance limit also covers credit risk on the existing third party reinsurance related to these liabilities. NICO was paid a reinsurance premium of $2.0 billion and billed third party reinsurance receivables related to A&EP claims with a net book value of $215 million were transferred to NICO, resulting in total consideration of $2.2 billion. In years subsequent to the effective date of the LPT, adverse prior year development on A&EP reserves was recognized resulting in additional amounts ceded under the LPT. As a result, the cumulative amounts ceded under the LPT have exceeded the $2.2 billion consideration paid, resulting in the NICO LPT moving into a gain position, requiring retroactive reinsurance accounting. Under retroactive reinsurance accounting, this gain is deferred and only recognized in earnings in proportion to actual paid recoveries under the LPT. Over the life of the contract, there is no economic impact as long as any additional losses incurred are within the limit of the LPT. In a period in which a change in the estimate of A&EP reserves is recognized that increases or decreases the amounts ceded under the LPT, the proportion of actual paid recoveries to total ceded losses is affected and the change in the deferred gain is recognized in earnings as if the revised estimate of ceded losses was available at the effective date of the LPT. The effect of the deferred retroactive reinsurance benefit is recorded in Insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. The impact of the LPT on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations was the recognition of a retroactive reinsurance benefit of and for the months ended June and As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the cumulative amounts ceded under the LPT were $ billion. The unrecognized deferred retroactive reinsurance benefit was $ million and $ million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and is included within Other liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. NICO established a collateral trust account as security for its obligations under the LPT. The fair value of the collateral trust account was $ billion as of June 30, 2021 In addition, Berkshire Hathaway Inc. guaranteed the payment obligations of NICO up to the aggregate reinsurance limit as well as certain of NICO’s performance obligations under the trust agreement. NICO is responsible for claims handling and billing and collection from third-party reinsurers related to the majority of the A&EP claims. Excess Workers’ Compensation LPT On February 5, 2021, CNA completed a transaction with Cavello Bay Reinsurance Limited (“Cavello”), a subsidiary of Enstar Group Limited, under which certain legacy excess workers’ compensation (“EWC”) liabilities were ceded to Cavello. Under the terms of the transaction, based on reserves in place as of January 1, 2020, approximately $ million of net EWC claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserves were ceded to Cavello under a loss portfolio transfer (“EWC LPT”) with an aggregate limit of $ billion. Cavello was paid a reinsurance premium of $ million, less claims paid between January 1, 2020 and the closing date of the agreement of $ million. As of June 30, 2021, the cumulative amounts ceded under the EWC LPT were $690 million and the remaining amount available under the $1.0 billion aggregate limit was $310 million. Cavello established a collateral trust account as security for its obligations, which will be maintained at 105% of outstanding reserves. Credit Risk for Ceded Reserves The majority of CNA’s outstanding voluntary reinsurance receivables are due from reinsurers with financial strength ratings of A- or higher. Receivables due from reinsurers with lower financial strength ratings are primarily due from captive reinsurers and are backed by collateral arrangements. |

Legal Proceedings | 9. Legal Proceedings On May 25, 2018, plaintiffs Tsemach Mishal and Paul Berger (on behalf of themselves and the purported class, “Plaintiffs”) initiated a purported class action in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court”) against the following defendants: Boardwalk Pipelines, Boardwalk GP, LP (“General Partner”), Boardwalk GP, LLC and Boardwalk Pipelines Holding Corp. (“BPHC”) (together, “Defendants”), regarding the potential exercise by the General Partner of its right to purchase all of the issued and outstanding common units representing limited partnership interests in Boardwalk Pipelines not already owned by the General Partner or its affiliates. On June 25, 2018, Plaintiffs and Defendants entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Compromise and Settlement, subject to the approval of the Court (the “Proposed Settlement”). Under the terms of the Proposed Settlement, the lawsuit would be dismissed, and related claims against the Defendants would be released by the Plaintiffs, if BPHC, the sole member of the General Partner, elected to cause the General Partner to exercise its right to purchase the issued and outstanding common units of Boardwalk Pipelines pursuant to Boardwalk Pipelines’ Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended (“Limited Partnership Agreement”), within a period specified by the Proposed Settlement. On June 29, 2018, the General Partner elected to exercise its right to purchase all of the issued and outstanding common units representing limited partnership interests in Boardwalk Pipelines not already owned by the General Partner or its affiliates pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement within the period specified by the Proposed Settlement. The transaction was completed on July 18, 2018. On September 28, 2018, the Court denied approval of the Proposed Settlement. On February 11, 2019, a substitute verified class action complaint was filed in this proceeding. The Defendants filed a motion to dismiss, which was heard by the Court in July of 2019. In October of 2019, the Court ruled on the motion and granted a partial dismissal, with certain aspects of the case proceeding to trial. A trial was held the week of February 22, 2021 and post-trial oral arguments were held on July 14, 2021 The Company is from time to time party to other litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While it is difficult to predict the outcome or effect of any litigation, management does not believe that the outcome of any pending litigation, including the Boardwalk Pipelines matter described above, will materially affect the Company’s results of operations or equity. |

Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | 10. Commitments and Contingencies CNA Data Breach-related Contingency As previously disclosed, CNA sustained a sophisticated cybersecurity attack in March of 2021 involving ransomware. CNA’s investigation revealed that an unauthorized third party copied some personal information relating to certain current and former employees, contractor workers and their dependents and certain other persons, including some policyholders. In July of 2021, CNA provided notifications to the impacted individuals and to regulators, in accordance with applicable law. CNA may be subject to subsequent investigations, fines or penalties, as well as other legal claims and actions, related to the foregoing. The likelihood is reasonably possible, but the amount of such fines, penalties or costs, if any, cannot be estimated at this time. Based on the information currently known, CNA does not believe that the March 2021 cybersecurity attack will have a material impact on its business, results of operations or financial condition, but no assurances can be given as it continues to assess the full impact from the incident, including costs, expenses and insurance coverage. CNA CNA has provided guarantees, if the primary obligor fails to perform, to holders of structured settlement annuities issued by a previously owned subsidiary. As of June 30, 2021, the potential amount of future payments CNA could be required to pay under these guarantees was approximately $1.6 billion, which will be paid over the lifetime of the annuitants. CNA does not believe any payment is likely under these guarantees, as CNA is the beneficiary of a trust that must be maintained at a level that approximates the discounted reserves for these annuities. |

Basis of Presentation [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Loews Corporation is a holding company. Its subsidiaries are engaged in the following lines of business: commercial property and casualty insurance (CNA Financial Corporation (“CNA”), an owned subsidiary); transportation and storage of natural gas and natural gas liquids (Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP (“Boardwalk Pipelines”), a wholly owned subsidiary); and the operation of a chain of hotels (Loews Hotels Holding Corporation (“Loews Hotels & Co”), a wholly owned subsidiary). Unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Company” as used herein means Loews Corporation including its subsidiaries, the term “Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation” as used herein means Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation shareholders On April 1, 2021, Loews Corporation sold 47% of its interest in Altium Packaging, previously a 99% owned subsidiary. See Note 2 for further discussion. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and changes in shareholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Net income (loss) for the second quarter and first half of each of the years is not necessarily indicative of net income (loss) for that entire year. These Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. |
Income (Loss) per Share | The Company presents basic and diluted net income (loss) per share on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. Basic net income (loss) per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 there were no shares attributable to employee stock-based compensation awards excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding amounts because the effect would have been antidilutive. |
Recently Issued ASUs | Recently issued ASUs – In August of 2018 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-12 “Financial Services – Insurance (Topic 944 : Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts.” The updated accounting guidance requires changes to the measurement and disclosure of long-duration contracts. The guidance requires entities to update annually cash flow assumptions, including morbidity and persistency, and update quarterly discount rate assumptions using an upper-medium grade fixed-income instrument yield. The effect of changes in cash flow assumptions will be recorded in Net income and the effect of changes in discount rate assumptions will be recorded in Other comprehensive income (“OCI”). |
