Fixed Maturities AFS
The components of fair value and amortized cost for fixed maturities classified as AFS on the consolidated balance sheets excludes accrued interest receivable because the Company elected to present accrued interest receivable within other assets. Accrued interest receivable on AFS fixed maturities as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $89 million and $78 million, respectively. There was no accrued interest written off for AFS fixed maturities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

The Company maintains a diversified portfolio of corporate securities across industries and issuers and does not have exposure to any single issuer in excess of 1.4% of total corporate securities. The largest exposures to a single issuer of corporate securities held as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $83 million and $82 million, respectively, representing 4.0% and 3.8% of the consolidated equity of the Company.
Corporate high yield securities, consisting primarily of public high yield bonds, are classified as other than investment grade by the various rating agencies, i.e., a rating below Baa3/BBB- or the NAIC designation of 3 (medium investment grade), 4 or 5 (below investment grade) or 6 (in or near default). As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, approximately $138 million and $92 million, or 1.2% and 0.9%, of the $11.6 billion and $10.1 billion aggregate amortized cost of fixed maturities held by the Company were considered to be other than investment grade. These securities had gross unrealized losses of $0 million and $0 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, the $327 million and $295 million of gross unrealized losses of twelve months or more were concentrated in corporate securities. In accordance with the policy described in Note 2 of the Notes to these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company concluded that an allowance for credit losses for these securities was not warranted at either March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not intend to sell the securities nor will it likely be required to dispose of the securities before the anticipated recovery of their remaining amortized cost basis.
Based on the Company’s evaluation both qualitatively and quantitatively of the drivers of the decline in fair value of fixed maturity securities as of March 31, 2024, the Company determined that the unrealized loss was primarily due to increases in interest rates and credit spreads.
Securities Lending
Beginning in 2023, the Company has entered into securities lending agreements with an agent bank whereby blocks of securities are loaned to third parties, primarily major brokerage firms. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the estimated fair value of loaned securities was $21 million and $23 million. The agreements require a minimum of 102% of the fair value of the loaned securities to be held as cash collateral, calculated daily. To further minimize the credit risks related to these programs, the financial condition of counterparties is monitored on a regular basis. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cash collateral received in the amount of $21 million and $23 million was invested by the agent bank. A securities lending payable for the overnight and continuous loans is included in other liabilities in the amount of cash collateral received. Securities lending transactions are used to generate income. Income and expenses associated with these transactions are reported as net investment income and were not material for the March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Mortgage Loans on Real Estate
In 2024 the Company began investing in residential mortgage loans. Accrued interest receivable on commercial and residential mortgage loans was $3 million and $1 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and no accrued interest was written off for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no loans for which foreclosure was probable included within the individually assessed mortgage loans, and accordingly had no associated allowance for credit losses.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Mortgage Loans
The change in the allowance for credit losses for commercial and residential mortgage loans were as follows:
