As of September 30, 2021, the Company had a total of 359 AFS debt securities in a gross unrealized loss position with no credit impairment, consisting primarily of 150 U.S. government agency and U.S. government-sponsored enterprise mortgage-backed securities, 48 U.S. government agency and U.S. government-sponsored enterprise debt securities, and 22 corporate debt securities. In comparison, as of December 31, 2020, the Company had a total of 104 AFS debt securities in a gross unrealized loss position with no credit impairment, consisting primarily of 46 U.S. government agency and U.S. government-sponsored enterprise mortgage-backed securities and 17 corporate debt securities.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Each reporting period, the Company assesses each AFS debt security that is in an unrealized loss position to determine whether the decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis resulted from a credit loss or other factors. For a discussion of the factors and criteria the Company uses in analyzing securities for impairment related to credit losses, see Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Significant Accounting Policies — Allowance for Credit Losses on Available-for-Sale Debt Securities to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K.

The gross unrealized losses presented in the above tables were primarily attributable to interest rate movement and widened liquidity spreads. Securities that were in unrealized loss positions as of September 30, 2021 were mainly comprised of the following:
U.S. government agency and U.S. government-sponsored enterprise mortgage-backed securities — The market value decline as of September 30, 2021 was primarily due to interest rate movement. These securities (issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac) are guaranteed or sponsored by agencies of the U.S. government, and the credit profiles are strong (rated Aaa, AA+ and AAA by Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), Standard and Poor's (“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”), respectively). The Company expects to receive all contractual cash flows on time and believes the risk of credit losses on these securities is remote.
U.S. government agency and U.S. government-sponsored enterprise debt securities — The market value decline as of September 30, 2021 was primarily due to interest rate movement. The securities consisted of the debt securities issued by:
Federal Farm Credit Bank, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (rated Aaa, AA+ and AAA by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, respectively).
FHLB (rated Aaa and AA+ by Moody’s and S&P, respectively).
These securities are guaranteed or issued by entities sponsored by the U.S. government and the credit profiles are strong. The Company expects to receive all contractual cash flows on time and believes the risk of credit losses on these securities is remote.
Corporate debt securities The market value decline as of September 30, 2021 was primarily due to interest rate movement and spread widening. Since credit profiles of these securities are strong (rated BBB- or higher by Moody’s, S&P, Fitch, and Kroll Bond Rating Agency), and the contractual payments from these securities have been and are expected to be received on time, the Company believes that the risk of credit losses on these securities is remote.

The impact of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic has been greatly mitigated by the government’s aggressive monetary policy and economic stimulus plans, including benchmark rate cuts, and various relief measures that contributed to the gradual and steady recovery of the market to pre-pandemic levels. Overall, the Company believes that the credit support levels of the AFS debt securities are strong and, based on current assessments and macroeconomic forecasts, expects that full contractual cash flows will be received, even if near-term credit performance could suffer from future unpredictable impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including new and more contagious variants.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had the intent to hold the AFS debt securities with unrealized losses through the anticipated recovery period and it was more-likely-than-not that the Company will not have to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost. The issuers of these securities have not, to the Company’s knowledge, established any cause for default on these securities. As a result, the Company expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities. Accordingly, there was no allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 provided against these securities. In addition, there was no provision for credit losses recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.
