The majority of the Corporation's residential mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations are backed by a U.S. government agency (Government National Mortgage Association) or a government sponsored enterprise (Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation or Federal National Mortgage Association).
The Corporation had a $4.8 million preferred stock investment security, which was carried at cost, that was redeemed by the issuer during 2013 and resulted in the Corporation recognizing a gain of $0.3 million.

At December 31, 2013, the Corporation held $10.5 million of trust preferred investment securities that were recorded as held-to-maturity, with $10.0 million of these securities representing a 100% interest in a trust preferred investment security of a small non-public bank holding company in Michigan that has been assessed by the Corporation as financially strong. The remaining $0.5 million represents a 10% interest in another trust preferred investment security of a small non-public bank holding company located in Michigan that was considered well-capitalized under regulatory guidelines at December 31, 2013.
At December 31, 2013, it was the Corporation's opinion that the market for trust preferred investment securities was not active, and thus, in accordance with GAAP, when there is a significant decrease in the volume and activity for an asset or liability in relation to normal market activity, adjustments to transaction or quoted prices may be necessary or a change in valuation technique or multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. The Corporation obtained pricing information for its trust preferred investment securities from an independent third-party pricing source. The pricing information was based on both observable inputs and appropriate risk adjustments that market participants would make for possible nonperformance, illiquidity and issuer specifics such as size, leverage position and location. The observable inputs were based on the existing market and insight into appropriate rate of return adjustments that market participants would require for the additional risk associated with a single issue investment security of this nature. Based on the information obtained from the independent third-party pricing source, the Corporation calculated a fair value at December 31, 2013 of $6.0 million on its $10.0 million trust preferred investment security and $0.2 million on its $0.5 million trust preferred investment security, resulting in a combined unrealized loss of $4.3 million at that date. At December 31, 2013, the Corporation concluded that the $4.3 million of combined unrealized loss on the trust preferred investment securities was temporary in nature.
The following is a summary of the amortized cost and fair value of investment securities at December 31, 2013, by maturity, for both available-for-sale and held-to-maturity investment securities. The maturities of residential mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations are based on scheduled principal payments. The maturities of all other debt securities are based on final contractual maturity.

An assessment is performed quarterly by the Corporation to determine whether unrealized losses in its investment securities portfolio are temporary or other-than-temporary by carefully considering all available information. The Corporation reviews factors such as financial statements, credit ratings, news releases and other pertinent information of the underlying issuer or company to make its determination. Management did not believe any individual unrealized loss on any investment security at December 31, 2013, represented an other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI). Management believed that the unrealized losses on investment securities at December 31, 2013 were temporary in nature and due primarily to changes in interest rates, increased credit spreads and reduced market liquidity and not as a result of credit-related issues. Unrealized losses of $4.3 million in the trust preferred securities portfolio, related to trust preferred securities of two well-capitalized bank holding companies in Michigan, were attributable to illiquidity in the financial markets for these types of investments. The Corporation performed an analysis of the creditworthiness of these issuers and concluded that, at December 31, 2013, the Corporation expected to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these investment securities.
At December 31, 2013, the Corporation did not have the intent to sell any of its impaired investment securities and believed that it was more-likely-than-not that the Corporation will not have to sell any such investment securities before a full recovery of amortized cost. Accordingly, at December 31, 2013, the Corporation believed the impairments in its investment securities portfolio were temporary in nature. Additionally, no impairment loss was realized in the Corporation's consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2013. However, there is no assurance that OTTI may not occur in the future.
Investment securities with an amortized cost of $616 million and $501 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were pledged to secure public fund deposits, short-term borrowings and for other purposes as required by law.
