Other-Than-Temporary Impairment
The balance of OTTI, included in the amortized cost columns above, is related to certain CLO positions that were previously considered Covered Funds as defined by Section 619 of the Dodd-Frank Act, commonly known as the Volcker Rule. The Company has taken measures to bring its CLO positions into conformance with the Volcker Rule.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, OTTI of $126 thousand, related to principal held back in conjunction with the exercise of a clean-up call option for a Private Label MBS security, was recognized. To the extent that changes occur in interest rates, credit movements, and other factors that impact fair value and expected recovery of amortized cost of its investment securities, the Company may, in future periods, be required to recognize OTTI in earnings.

Impairment Analysis
The following impairment analysis by investment security type, summarizes the basis for evaluating if investment securities within the Company’s available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios have been impacted by OTTI. Unless otherwise noted for an investment security type, management does not intend to sell these investment securities and has determined, based upon available evidence, that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these investment securities before the recovery of their amortized cost. As such, based on the following impairment analysis, the Company does not consider these investment securities, in unrealized loss positions, to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2017.
Available-for-Sale
Agency CMO. There were unrealized losses of $3.1 million on the Company’s investment in Agency CMO at June 30, 2017, compared to $3.5 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses decreased due to lower principal balances for this asset class at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016. Market prices remained essentially unchanged. These investments are issued by a government agency or a government-sponsored agency and, therefore, are backed by certain government guarantees, either direct or indirect. The contractual cash flows for these investments are performing as expected, and there has been no change in the underlying credit quality.
Agency MBS. There were unrealized losses of $16.9 million on the Company’s investment in Agency MBS at June 30, 2017, compared to $19.5 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses decreased due to lower principal balances for this asset class at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016. Market prices remained essentially unchanged. These investments are issued by a government agency or a government-sponsored agency and, therefore, are backed by certain government guarantees, either direct or indirect. The contractual cash flows for these investments are performing as expected, and there has been no change in the underlying credit quality.
Agency CMBS. There were unrealized losses of $15.3 million on the Company's investment in Agency CMBS at June 30, 2017, compared to $14.6 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses increased due to higher principal balances for this asset class compared to December 31, 2016. Market prices remained essentially unchanged. These investments are issued by a government agency or a government-sponsored agency and, therefore, are backed by certain government guarantees, either direct or indirect. The contractual cash flows for these investments are performing as expected, and there has been no change in the underlying credit quality.
CMBS. There were unrealized losses of $0.2 million on the Company’s investment in CMBS at June 30, 2017, compared to $0.7 million at December 31, 2016. The portfolio of mainly floating rate CMBS experienced lower market spreads which resulted in higher security prices and smaller unrealized losses at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016. Internal and external metrics are considered when evaluating potential OTTI. Internal stress tests are performed on individual bonds to monitor potential losses under stress scenarios. Contractual cash flows for these investments are performing as expected.
CLO. There were unrealized losses of $0.2 million on the Company's investment in CLO at June 30, 2017, compared to $0.5 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses decreased due to lower market spreads for the CLO portfolio at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016. Contractual cash flows for these investments are performing as expected.
Trust preferred. There were unrealized losses of $0.1 million on the Company's investment in trust preferred at June 30, 2017, compared to $1.7 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses decreased due to lower market spreads for this asset class, which resulted in higher security prices compared to December 31, 2016. The trust preferred portfolio consists of three floating rate investments issued by two different large capitalization money center financial institutions, which continue to service the debt. The Company performs periodic credit reviews of the issuer to assess the likelihood for ultimate recovery of amortized cost.
Corporate debt. There were $0.1 million unrealized losses on the Company's corporate debt at June 30, 2017, compared to $0.4 million at December 31, 2016. The Company performs periodic credit reviews of the issuer to assess the likelihood for ultimate recovery of amortized cost.
Held-to-Maturity
Agency CMO. There were unrealized losses of $3.2 million on the Company’s investment in Agency CMO at June 30, 2017 compared to $3.8 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses decreased due to lower principal balances for this asset class at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016. Market prices remained essentially unchanged. These investments are issued by a government agency or a government-sponsored agency and, therefore, are backed by certain government guarantees, either direct or indirect. The contractual cash flows for these investments are performing as expected, and there has been no change in the underlying credit quality.
Agency MBS. There were unrealized losses of $35.1 million on the Company’s investment in Agency MBS at June 30, 2017, compared to $41.8 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses decreased due to lower principal balances for this asset class at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016. Market prices remained essentially unchanged. These investments are issued by a government agency or a government-sponsored agency and, therefore, are backed by certain government guarantees, either direct or indirect. There has been no change in the underlying credit quality, and the contractual cash flows are performing as expected.
Agency CMBS. There were unrealized losses of $2.7 million on the Company's investment in Agency CMBS at June 30, 2017, compared to $1.3 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses increased due to higher market spreads for this asset class which resulted in lower prices since December 31, 2016.
Municipal bonds and notes. There were unrealized losses of $14.6 million on the Company’s investment in municipal bonds and notes at June 30, 2017, compared to $25.7 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses decreased due to lower market rates which resulted in higher prices at June 30, 2017. The Company performs periodic credit reviews of the issuers and these investments are currently performing as expected.
CMBS. There were unrealized losses of $0.3 million on the Company’s investment in CMBS at June 30, 2017, compared to $0.4 million at December 31, 2016. Unrealized losses were approximately the same, for the portfolio comprised mainly of seasoned fixed rate conduit transactions, at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016. Internal and external metrics are considered when evaluating potential OTTI. Internal stress tests are performed on individual bonds to monitor potential losses under stress scenarios. The contractual cash flows for these investments are performing as expected.

For the maturity schedule above, mortgage-backed securities and CLO, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been categorized based on the maturity date of the underlying collateral. Actual principal cash flows may differ from this maturity date presentation as borrowers have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.
At June 30, 2017, the Company had a carrying value of $1.3 billion in callable investment securities in its CMBS, CLO, and municipal bond portfolios. The Company considers prepayment risk in the evaluation of its interest rate risk profile. These maturities may not reflect actual durations, which may be impacted by prepayments.
Investment securities with a carrying value totaling $2.7 billion at June 30, 2017 and $2.5 billion at December 31, 2016 were pledged to secure public funds, trust deposits, repurchase agreements, and for other purposes, as required or permitted by law.
