The Company does not intend to sell these investments and has determined based upon available evidence that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell each security before the expected recovery of its amortized cost basis. As a result, the Company did not recognize an ACL on these investments as of either June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
The causes of the impairments listed in the tables above by category are as follows as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:
Government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities, U.S. Agency bonds and U.S. Treasury securities – The securities with unrealized losses in these portfolios have contractual terms that generally do not permit the issuer to settle the security at a price less than the current par value of the investment. The decline in market value of these securities is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality. Additionally, these securities are implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government or one of its agencies.
State and municipal bonds and obligations – The securities with unrealized losses in this portfolio have contractual terms that generally do not permit the issuer to settle the security at a price less than the current par value of the investment. The decline in market value of these securities is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality.
Other debt securities – As of December 31, 2022, there were two securities included in this portfolio in an unrealized loss position which consisted of of two foreign debt securities. Both securities were performing in accordance with the terms of their respective contractual agreements. The decline in market value of these securities was attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality.

As of June 30, 2023, securities with a carrying value of $2.5 billion were pledged as collateral through the Program.
