As of March 31, 2020, the average risk rating of the commercial mortgage loan portfolio was 2.9 (Moderate Risk), weighted by investment carrying value, with 78.7% of commercial loans held-for-investment rated 3 (Moderate Risk) or better by the Company's Manager.

As of December 31, 2019, the average risk rating of the commercial mortgage loan portfolio was 2.8 (Moderate Risk), weighted by investment carrying value, with 91.9% of commercial loans held-for-invested rated 3 (Moderate Risk) or better by the Company's Manager.

The increase in the average risk rating during 2020 is primarily the result of downgrade of several non multi-family loans to a risk rating of "4" to reflect higher risk in loans collateralized by retail and office properties that are particularly negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Concentration of Credit Risk: The following tables present the geographic and property types of collateral underlying the Company's commercial mortgage loans as a percentage of the loans' carrying value as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
