Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract]  
Investment Securities INVESTMENT SECURITIES
    The Bank utilizes mortgage-backed and other investment securities in its asset/liability management strategy. In making investment decisions, the Bank considers, among other things, its yield and interest rate objectives, its interest rate and credit risk position, and its liquidity and cash flow.

    Generally, the investment policy of the Bank is to invest funds among categories of investments and maturities based upon the Bank’s asset/liability management policies, investment quality, loan and deposit volume and collateral requirements, liquidity needs and performance objectives. Debt securities are classified into three categories: trading, held-to-maturity, and available-for-sale. At December 31, 2022, securities with fair value of $53.4 million, or 95.7%, of the Bank’s total securities were classified as available-for-sale, and securities with amortized cost of $2.4 million, or 4.3%, were classified as held-to-maturity, compared to $67.6 million and $5.3 million at March 31, 2022, respectively. The Bank had no securities classified as trading at December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022.

    Other investments as of December 31, 2022 primarily consists of the Bank's investment in a limited partnership Community Capital Fund and a $5.1 million bank-owned life insurance policy ("BOLI") that was purchased during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 as a channel to add to the Company's non-interest income revenue by means of an investment considered safe and sound by the Company's regulators. The investment in the limited partnership is measured using the equity
method. The BOLI is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. Income generated from the investment and the increase in the cash surrender value of the BOLI is included in other non-interest income on the Statements of Operations. Other investments totaled $6.2 million at December 31, 2022 and are included in Other Assets on the Statements of Financial Condition.

    The following tables set forth the amortized cost and fair value of securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity at December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022:

    A total of 26 securities had an unrealized loss at December 31, 2022 compared to 23 at March 31, 2022. Mortgage-backed securities, U.S. government agency securities, municipal securities and a corporate bond security represented 51.2%, 18.4%, 24.8% and 5.5%, respectively, of total available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2022. There were six mortgage-backed securities, two U.S. government agency securities, one corporate bond, five municipal securities and one asset-backed security that had an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months at December 31, 2022. Given the high credit quality of the mortgage-backed securities, which are backed by the U.S. government's guarantees, the high credit quality and strong financial performance of the U.S. Government Agency and the results of the individual analyses performed for and continuous surveillance on the municipal securities, as well as the corporate security that is a reputable institution in good financial standing, the risk of credit loss is minimal. Management believes that these unrealized losses are a direct result of the current rate environment and the Company has the ability and intent to hold the securities until maturity or the valuations recover. The Bank did not have any securities that were classified as having other-than-temporary impairment in its investment portfolio at December 31, 2022.
    The following is a summary of the amortized cost and fair value of debt securities at December 31, 2022, by remaining period to contractual maturity (ignoring earlier call dates, if any).  Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because certain security issuers have the right to call or prepay their obligations.  The table below does not consider the effects of possible prepayments or unscheduled repayments.
