Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract]  
Investment Securities Investment SecuritiesAt March 31, 2019, the Company had $1.08 billion and $472.0 million in available for sale debt securities and held to maturity debt securities, respectively. Many factors, including lack of liquidity in the secondary market for certain securities, variations in pricing information, regulatory actions, changes in the business environment or any changes in the competitive marketplace could have an adverse effect on the Company’s investment portfolio which could result in other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") in future periods. The total number of available for sale and held to maturity debt securities in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2019, totaled 260, compared with 509 at December 31, 2018. All securities with unrealized losses at
March 31, 2019 were analyzed for OTTI. Based upon this analysis, the Company believes that, as of March 31, 2019, such securities with unrealized losses do not represent impairments that are other-than-temporary.

Mortgage-backed securities totaling $1.06 billion at amortized cost and $1.05 billion at fair value are excluded from the table above as their expected lives are likely to be shorter than the contractual maturity date due to principal prepayments.

The following tables present the fair values and gross unrealized losses for available for sale debt securities with temporary impairment at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in thousands):

The number of available for sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2019 totaled 130, compared with 175 at December 31, 2018. The decrease in the number of securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2019 was due to lower current market interest rates compared to rates at December 31, 2018. All temporarily impaired securities were investment grade at March 31, 2019. At March 31, 2019, there was one private label mortgage-backed security in an unrealized loss position, with an amortized cost of $24,000 and an unrealized loss of $2,000. This private label mortgage-backed security was investment grade at March 31, 2019.
Based on its detailed review of the available for sale debt securities portfolio, the Company believes that as of March 31, 2019, securities with unrealized loss positions shown above do not represent impairments that are other-than-temporary. The Company does not have the intent to sell securities in a temporary loss position at March 31, 2019, nor is it more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before the anticipated recovery.
