On September 1, 2019, Park adopted the portion of ASU 2019-04 which allowed for a one-time reclassification of securities from HTM to AFS. On that date, Park transferred HTM securities with a fair value of $373.9 million to the AFS classification. The transfer occurred at fair value and had a related unrealized gain, net of taxes, of $19.1 million recorded in other comprehensive income. All debt securities were classified as AFS at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The following table provides detail on investment securities in an unrealized loss position for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded at December 31, 2021, aggregated by major security type and length of time in a continuous unrealized loss position:

At December 31, 2021, Park’s debt security portfolio consisted of $1.8 billion of securities, $840.8 million of which were in an unrealized loss position with unrealized losses of $9.5 million. Of the $840.8 million of securities in an unrealized loss position, $73.4 million were in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer. The majority of the unrealized losses were related to Park’s U.S. Government sponsored entities' asset-backed securities portfolio. Unrealized losses have not been recognized into earnings as they represent negative adjustments to fair value relative to the rate of interest paid on the securities and not losses related to the creditworthiness of the respective issuers. Management does not intend to sell, and it is not more likely than not that management would be required to sell, the securities prior to their anticipated recovery. Management believes the value will recover as the securities approach maturity or market rates change.

There was no allowance for credit losses recorded for debt securities AFS at December 31, 2021. Additionally, for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, there were no credit-related investment impairment losses recognized.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investments in debt securities at December 31, 2021, are shown in the following table by contractual maturity, except for asset-backed securities and collateralized loan obligations, which are shown as a single total, due to the unpredictability of the timing in principal repayments. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities if borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Other Investment Securities
Other investment securities (as shown on the Consolidated Balance Sheets) consist of restricted stock investments in the FHLB and the FRB, and equity securities. The FHLB and FRB restricted stock investments are carried at their redemption value. Equity securities with a readily determinable fair value are carried at fair value. Equity securities without a readily determinable fair value are recorded at cost, minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions ("modified cost"). Park's portfolio of equity investments in limited partnerships which provide mezzanine funding ("Partnership Investments") are valued using the net asset value practical expedient in accordance with ASC 820.
