⁽¹⁾The allowance for securities held-to-maturity was established upon adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020.

Accrued interest receivable on the securities portfolio totaled $12.3 million and $11.3 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and is included in accrued interest receivable and other assets in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Accounting guidance requires that the credit portion of a decline in fair value be recognized as an allowance for credit losses, established as a charge to expense through income. If a decline in fair value below carrying value is not attributable to credit deterioration and the Company does not intend to sell the security or believe it would not be more likely than not required to sell the security prior to recovery, the Company records the non-credit related portion of the decline in fair value in other comprehensive income (loss). In determining whether a decline in fair value of a security is credit related, the Company considers adverse conditions specific to the security, deterioration in economic conditions or market environment that may affect the value of the securities and related collateral, if any, events of default, changes to the credit rating of the security by a rating agency, and guarantees applicable to the security, among other factors.

Substantially all of the Company's CMOs and other MBSs are either backed by U.S. government-owned agencies or issued by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. Municipal securities are issued by municipal authorities, and the majority are supported by third-party insurance or some other form of credit enhancement. Management does not believe any of these securities with unrealized losses as of March 31, 2020 represent impairment related to credit deterioration. These unrealized losses are attributed to changes in interest rates and temporary market movements. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell them before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.
