Fixed Maturity Securities
We evaluate our available-for-sale fixed maturity securities for declines based on qualitative and quantitative factors. The effects of the COVID-19 global health pandemic, or COVID-19, and other market related changes have impacted our fixed maturity securities. We have established an allowance for credit loss and recorded credit loss expense as a reflection of our expected impairment losses. We continue to review our investment portfolios under our impairment review policy. Given the inherent uncertainty of changes in market conditions and the significant judgments involved, there is a continuing risk that declines in fair value may occur and additional material impairment losses on investments may be recorded in future periods.
Our fixed maturity securities were in a net unrealized gain position of $713 and $673 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
A summary of current and long-term fixed maturity securities, available-for-sale, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is as follows:

Below are discussions by security type for unrealized losses and credit losses as of June 30, 2020:
Foreign government securities: An allowance for credit loss was established on foreign government security holdings of Republic of Ecuador. Notification of the request for delayed interest payments, a rating downgrade and significant decline in fair value were factors indicating a credit loss. No other foreign government securities had material unrealized losses or qualitative factors to indicate a credit loss. We do not intend to sell these investments and it is likely we will not be required to sell these investments prior to maturity or recovery of amortized cost.
Corporate securities: An allowance for credit losses on certain retail, travel and entertainment as well as energy sector fixed maturity corporate securities has been determined based on qualitative and quantitative factors including credit rating, decline in fair value and industry condition along with other available market data. With multiple risk factors present, these securities were reviewed for expected future cash flow to determine the portion of unrealized losses that were credit related and to record an allowance for credit losses. Unrealized losses on our other corporate securities were largely due to market conditions relating to the COVID-19 pandemic; however, qualitative factors did not indicate a credit loss as of June 30, 2020. We do not intend to sell these investments and it is likely we will not have to sell these investments prior to maturity or recovery of amortized cost.
As for the remaining securities shown in the table above, unrealized losses on these securities have not been recognized into income because we do not intend to sell these investments and it is likely that we will not be required to sell these investments prior to their anticipated recovery. The decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. We have evaluated these securities for any change in credit rating and have determined that no allowance is necessary. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach maturity.

In the ordinary course of business, we may sell securities at a loss for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to: (i) changes in the investment environment; (ii) expectation that the fair value could deteriorate further; (iii) desire to reduce exposure to an issuer or an industry; (iv) changes in credit quality; or (v) changes in expected cash flow.
All securities sold resulting in investment gains and losses are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are determined on the basis of the cost or amortized cost of the specific securities sold.

Other Invested Assets
Other invested assets include primarily our investments in limited partnerships, joint ventures and other non-controlled corporations, as well as the cash surrender value of corporate-owned life insurance policies. Investments in limited partnerships, joint ventures and other non-controlled corporations are carried at our share in the entities’ undistributed earnings, which approximates fair value. Financial information for certain of these investments are reported on a one or three month lag due to the timing of when we receive financial information from the companies. Given the recent market volatility, there is a risk that the value of some of these investments may decline in future periods.
Investment Income
At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, accrued investment income totaled $182 and $173, respectively. We recognize accrued investment income under the caption “Other receivables” on our consolidated balance sheets.
Securities Lending Programs
We participate in securities lending programs whereby marketable securities in our investment portfolio are transferred to independent brokers or dealers in exchange for cash and securities collateral. The fair value of the collateral received at the time of the transactions amounted to $1,114 and $351 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The value of the collateral represented 102% and 103% of the market value of the securities on loan at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. We recognize the collateral as an asset under the caption “Other current assets” in our consolidated balance sheets, and we recognize a corresponding liability for the obligation to return the collateral to the borrower under the caption “Other current liabilities.” The securities on loan are reported in the applicable investment category on our consolidated balance sheets.
The remaining contractual maturity of our securities lending agreements at June 30, 2020 is as follows:
