United excludes accrued interest from the amortized cost basis of
available-for-sale
debt securities and report accrued interest separately in “Accrued interest receivable” in the consolidated balance sheets.
Available-for-sale
debt securities are placed on
non-accrual
status when we no longer expect to receive all contractual amounts due, which is generally at 90 days past due. Accrued interest receivable is reversed against interest income when a security is placed on
non-accrual
status. Accordingly, United does not currently recognize an allowance for credit loss against accrued interest receivable on
available-for-sale
debt securities. The table above excludes accrued interest receivable of $22,269 and $15,353 at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, that is recorded in “Accrued interest receivable.”
The following is a summary of securities available for sale which were in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

At September 30, 2022, gross unrealized losses on available for sale securities were $494,529 on 1,468 securities of a total portfolio of 1,526 available for sale securities. Securities with the most significant gross unrealized losses at September 30, 2022 consisted primarily of agency residential mortgage-backed securities, state and political subdivision securities, agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities and other corporate securities.
In determining whether or not a security is impaired, management considered the severity of the loss in conjunction with United’s positive intent and the more likely than not ability to hold these securities to recovery of their cost basis or maturity. Management believes the significant amount of gross unrealized losses on available for sale securities at September 30, 2022 was primarily the result of rising interest rates and does not reflect any expected credit losses.
State and political subdivisions
United’s state and political subdivisions portfolio relates to securities issued by various municipalities located throughout the United States. The total amortized cost of available for sale state and political subdivision securities was $827,078 at September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022, approximately 53% of the portfolio was supported by the general obligation of the issuing municipality, which allows for the securities to be repaid by any means available to the municipality. The majority of the portfolio was rated AA or higher, and no securities within the portfolio were rated below investment grade as of September 30, 2022. In addition to monitoring the credit ratings of these securities, management also evaluates the financial performance of the underlying issuers on an ongoing basis. Based upon management’s analysis and judgment, it was determined that none of the state and political subdivision securities had credit losses at September 30, 2022.
Agency mortgage-backed securities
United’s agency mortgage-backed securities portfolio relates to securities issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. The total amortized cost of available for sale agency mortgage-backed securities was $2,071,977 at September 30, 2022. Of the $2,071,977 amount, $656,637 was related to agency commercial mortgage-backed securities and $1,415,340 was related to agency residential mortgage-backed securities. Each of the agency mortgage-backed securities provides a guarantee of full and timely payments of principal and interest by the issuing agency. Based upon management’s analysis and judgment, it was determined that none of the agency mortgage-backed securities had credit losses at September 30, 2022.
Non-agency
residential mortgage-backed securities
United’s
non-agency
residential mortgage-backed securities portfolio relates to securities of various private label issuers. The total amortized cost of available for sale
non-agency
residential mortgage-backed securities was $122,069 at September 30, 2022. Of the $122,069, 100% was rated AAA. Based upon management’s analysis and judgment, it was determined that none of the
non-agency
residential mortgage-backed securities had credit losses at September 30, 2022.
Asset-backed securities
As of September 30, 2022, United’s asset-backed securities portfolio had a total amortized cost balance of $961,942. 100% of the portfolio was investment grade rated as of September 30, 2022. Approximately 28% of the portfolio relates to securities that are backed by Federal Family Education Loan Program (“FFELP”) student loan collateral which includes a minimum of a 97% government repayment guaranty, as well as additional credit support and subordination in excess of the government guaranteed portion. Approximately 72% of the portfolio relates to collateralized loan obligation securities that are all AAA rated. Upon reviewing this portfolio for the third quarter of 2022, it was determined that none of the asset-backed securities had credit losses.
 
Single issue trust preferred securities
The majority of United’s single issue trust preferred portfolio consists of obligations from large cap banks (i.e. banks with market capitalization in excess of $10 billion). All single issue trust preferred securities are currently receiving interest payments. The amortized cost of available for sale single issue trust preferred securities as of September 30, 2022 consisted of $8,464 in investment grade bonds, $3,083 in split rated bonds, and $5,782 in unrated bonds. Management reviews each issuer’s current and projected earnings trends, asset quality, capitalization levels, and other key factors. Upon completing the review for the third quarter of 2022, it was determined that none of the single issue trust preferred securities had credit losses.
Other corporate securities
As of September 30, 2022, United’s other corporate securities portfolio had a total amortized cost balance of $592,127. The majority of the portfolio consisted of debt issuances of corporations representing a variety of industries, including financial institutions. Of the $592,127 total amortized cost balance, 96% was investment grade rated, 2% was below investment grade rated, 1% was split rated, and 1% was unrated. For corporate securities, management has evaluated the near-term prospects of the investment in relation to the severity of any unrealized loss. Based upon management’s analysis and judgment, it was determined that none of the corporate securities had credit losses at September 30, 2022.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities available for sale at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 by contractual maturity are shown as follows. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because the issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without penalties.

During the third quarter of 2022, United evaluated all of its cost method investments to determine if certain events or changes in circumstances during the third quarter of 2022 had a significant adverse effect on the fair value of any of its cost method securities. United determined that there was no individual security that experienced an adverse event during the third quarter. There were no other events or changes in circumstances during the third quarter which would have an adverse effect on the fair value of its cost method securities.
The carrying value of securities pledged to secure public deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and for other purposes as required or permitted by law, approximated $1,722,762 and $1,871,328 at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
