Gross realized gains from sales of investment securities were $116,490,000 in 2013. During 2013, the Company sold its holdings of Visa Class B shares for a gain of $89,545,000 and its holdings of MasterCard Class B shares for a gain of $13,208,000. Gross realized losses on investment securities were $60,033,000 in 2013. The Company sold substantially all of its privately issued mortgage-backed securities held in the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio during 2013. In total, $1.0 billion of such securities were sold for a net loss of approximately $46,302,000. There were no significant gross realized gains or losses from the sale of investment securities in 2015 or 2014.

The Company recognized $10 million of pre-tax other-than-temporary impairment losses related to privately issued mortgage-backed securities in 2013. The impairment charges were recognized in light of deterioration of real estate values and a rise in delinquencies and charge-offs of underlying mortgage loans collateralizing those securities. The other-than-temporary impairment losses represented management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in the debt securities considering projected cash flows using assumptions for delinquency rates, loss severities, and other estimates of future collateral performance. There were no other-than-temporary impairment losses in 2015 or 2014.
