Total pay is as the Summary Compensation Table states it; actually paid revalues the year’s share awards
at its end, as the SEC’s pay-versus-performance rule asks. $100 invested is what $100 in the company’s
shares at the start of the earliest year shown was worth at each year’s end.
Ownership is the proxy’s own table: the directors and officers as a group, and every holder of 5% or more.

Enact Holdings is a private mortgage insurer serving the US housing finance market. It sells coverage primarily to lenders that originate residential mortgages, operating nationwide and in the District of Columbia. Rohit Gupta is president and chief executive officer.
Its insurance is generally used on loans where the borrower makes a low down payment. If the borrower does not pay, the policy protects the lender or investor against a portion of the resulting loss. The lender typically chooses the insurer when it originates the loan; the borrower usually pays the premium as part of the mortgage payment.
