On November 1, 2020, mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost of $1.46 billion were transferred from investment securities available for sale to the held to maturity portfolio. At the time of transfer, the mortgage-backed securities had a fair value of $1.47 billion and a weighted average contractual maturity of 18 years. The unrealized gain on these securities at the date of transfer was $5.9 million, or $4.5 million net of tax, and was reported as a component of AOCI. This unrealized gain is accreted over the remaining expected life of the securities as an adjustment of yield.
Investments in residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities represent securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association, Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. Investments in government agency securities represent securities issued by the United States Small Business Administration. Investments in corporate bonds and marketable equity securities represent positions in securities of other financial institutions. Other held to maturity investments include certificates of deposit with other financial institutions.
BancShares also holds approximately 354,000 shares of Visa Class B common stock, which are not considered to have a readily determinable fair value and are recorded at $0. BancShares held FHLB stock of $40.6 million and $45.4 million and other non-marketable equity securities of $11.4 million and $11.6 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. These securities are recorded at cost within other assets.
As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, no ACL was required for available for sale and held to maturity debt securities. Accrued interest receivables for available for sale and held to maturity debt securities were excluded from the estimate for credit losses. At March 31, 2021, accrued interest receivables for available for sale and held to maturity debt securities were $21.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively. At December 31, 2020, accrued interest receivables for available for sale and held to maturity debt securities were $17.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, no accrued interest was deemed uncollectible and written off against interest income.
The following table provides the amortized cost and fair value by contractual maturity for investment securities available for sale and held to maturity. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities on certain securities because issuers and borrowers of underlying collateral may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties. Residential and commercial mortgage-backed and government agency securities are stated separately as they are not due at a single maturity date.

As of March 31, 2021, there were 60 investment securities available for sale with continuous losses for more than 12 months, of which 54 were government sponsored enterprise-issued mortgage-backed securities or government agency securities and six were corporate bonds.
None of the unrealized losses identified as of March 31, 2021, or December 31, 2020, relate to the issuer’s ability to honor redemption obligations. Rather, the unrealized losses relate to changes in interest rates relative to when the investment securities were purchased, and do not indicate credit-related impairment. BancShares considered other factors including changes in credit ratings, delinquencies, and other macroeconomic factors in this determination. As a result, none of the securities were deemed to require an allowance for credit losses. BancShares has the ability and intent to retain these securities for a period of time sufficient to recover all unrealized losses.
Investment securities having an aggregate carrying value of $4.8 billion at March 31, 2021, and $4.6 billion at December 31, 2020, were pledged as collateral to secure public funds on deposit and certain short-term borrowings, and for other purposes as required by law.
BancShares’ portfolio of held to maturity debt securities consists of mortgage-backed securities issued by government agencies and government sponsored entities. Given the consistently strong credit rating of the U.S. Treasury and the long history of no credit losses on debt securities issued by government agencies and government sponsored entities, no further credit monitoring is performed on these portfolios. Should there be downgrades to the credit rating of the U.S. Treasury or losses reported on securities issued by government agencies and government sponsored entities, BancShares will reevaluate its determination of zero expected credit losses on held to maturity debt securities.
There were no debt securities held to maturity on nonaccrual status as of March 31, 2021.
A security is considered past due once it is 30 days contractually past due under the terms of the agreement. There were no securities past due as of March 31, 2021.
