Investment Securities Investment Securities
Investment securities are generally classified as available for sale or held to maturity at the time of purchase. The majority of the Corporation's investment securities are mortgage-related securities issued by GNMA or GSEs such as FNMA and FHLMC. Obligations of state and political subdivisions (municipal securities) make up a large percentage of the portfolio as well.
The amortized cost and fair values of securities available for sale and held to maturity at March 31, 2019 were as follows:

During the first quarter of 2019, the Corporation sold taxable ABS, MBS, and CMO securities, with the proceeds utilized to pay down borrowings.
On February 1, 2018, the date the Bank Mutual acquisition was completed, the Corporation sold Bank Mutual's entire $453 million securities portfolio. The Corporation originally reinvested the proceeds from the Bank Mutual securities portfolio into GNMA residential mortgage-related securities with the goal of reinvesting future cash flows into municipal securities. This strategy was completed during August 2018.
Investment securities with a carrying value of approximately $3.6 billion and $3.0 billion at March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively, were pledged to secure certain deposits or for other purposes as required or permitted by law.

The Corporation reviews the investment securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to monitor its exposure to other-than-temporary impairment. A determination as to whether a security’s decline in fair value is other-than-temporary takes into consideration numerous factors and the relative significance of any single factor can vary by security. Some factors the Corporation may consider in the other-than-temporary impairment analysis include the length of time and extent to which the security has been in an unrealized loss position, changes in security ratings, financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, as well as security and industry specific economic conditions.
Based on the Corporation’s evaluation, management does not believe any unrealized loss at March 31, 2019 represents an other-than-temporary impairment as these unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and the current market conditions, and not credit deterioration. The unrealized losses reported for municipal securities relate to various state and local political subdivisions and school districts. The unrealized losses at March 31, 2019 for mortgage-related securities were less than the previous quarter due to the decrease in overall interest rates. The U.S. Treasury 3 year and 5 year rates decreased by 25 bp and 28 bp, respectively, from December 31, 2018. The Corporation does not intend to sell nor does it believe that it will be required to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
Equity securities with readily determinable fair values: The Corporation's portfolio of equity securities is primarily comprised of CRA Qualified Investment mutual funds. At both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Corporation had equity securities with readily determinable fair values of $2 million.
In addition, in 2008, the Corporation received Visa Class B restricted shares as part of Visa's initial public offering. Based on the existing transfer restriction and the uncertainty of the covered litigation, the approximately 119 thousand Class B shares remaining that the Corporation owned as of March 31, 2019 are carried at a zero cost basis.
FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stocks: The Corporation is required to maintain Federal Reserve stock and FHLB stock as a member of both the Federal Reserve System and the FHLB, and in amounts as required by these institutions. These equity securities are “restricted” in that they can only be sold back to the respective institutions or another member institution at par. Therefore, they are less liquid than other marketable equity securities and their fair value is equal to amortized cost. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Corporation had FHLB stock of $139 million and $173 million, respectively. The Corporation had Federal Reserve Bank stock of $77 million at both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
