Note 10 – Short-term Borrowings

Short-term borrowings include federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, trading liabilities, and other borrowed funds.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase generally have maturities of less than 90 days. Trading liabilities, which represent short positions in securities, are generally held for less than 90 days. Other short-term borrowings have original maturities of one year or less. On December 31, 2014, capital markets trading securities with a fair value of $172.9 million were pledged to secure other short-term borrowings.

The detail of these borrowings for the years 2014, 2013 and 2012 is presented in the following table:
