Unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities where an allowance for credit loss was not recorded are due to noncredit related factors caused by market liquidity events related to COVID-19 and the economic downturn. A number of assumptions and estimates are inherent in evaluating whether an allowance for credit loss is necessary, which include the financial condition, near term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer, including relevant industry conditions and trends and implications of rating agency actions and offering prices.
