The Company has evaluated these securities and has determined that, other than certain private residential collateralized mortgage obligations discussed below, the decline in their value is temporary. The unrealized losses are primarily due to increases in market interest rates and larger spreads in the market for mortgage-related products. The fair value of these securities is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date and/or as the pricing spreads narrow on mortgage-related securities. The Company has the ability and intent to hold the investments until recovery of the market value which may be the maturity date of the securities.
To analyze the unrealized losses, the Company estimated expected future cash flows of the private residential collateralized mortgage obligations by estimating the expected future cash flows of the underlying collateral and applying those collateral cash flows, together with any credit enhancements such as subordination interests owned by third parties, to the security. The expected future cash flows of the underlying collateral are determined using the remaining contractual cash flows adjusted for future expected credit losses (which considers current delinquencies and nonperforming assets, future expected default rates and collateral value by vintage and geographic region) and prepayments. The expected cash flows of the security are then discounted at the interest rate used to recognize interest income on the security to arrive at a present value amount. The average discount interest rate used in the valuations of the present value as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 was 9.4% and 6.4%, respectively, and the average prepayment rate for each period was 6.0%.
For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were four and eight, respectively, private residential collateralized mortgage obligations determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired. All unrealized losses for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were deemed to be credit related, and the Company recorded the impairment in earnings. No impairment for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was recorded through other comprehensive income (loss). For the year ended December 31, 2012, there were eight private residential collateralized mortgage obligations determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired. A portion of the impairment not related to credit losses was recorded through other comprehensive (loss) income for the year ended December 31, 2012.
The following table summarizes activity for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 related to the amount of impairments on held to maturity securities:
