On a quarterly basis, the Company performs separate evaluations of impaired debt and equity investment and available for sale securities to determine if the unrealized losses are temporary.

For debt securities, management determines whether it intends to sell or if it is more-likely-than-not that it will be required to sell impaired securities. This determination considers current and forecasted liquidity requirements, regulatory and capital requirements and securities portfolio management. Based on this evaluation as of June 30, 2011, we do not intend to sell any impaired available for sale securities before fair value recovers to our current amortized cost and it is more-likely-than-not that we will not be required to sell impaired securities before fair value recovers, which may be maturity.

For all impaired debt securities for which there was no intent or expected requirement to sell, the evaluation considers all available evidence to assess whether it is more likely than not that all amounts due would not be collected according to the security's contractual terms.

Impairment of debt securities rated investment grade by all nationally-recognized rating agencies are considered temporary unless specific contrary information is identified. None of the debt securities rated investment grade were considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2011.

At June 30, 2011, the composition of the Company's investment and available for sale securities portfolios by the lowest current credit rating assigned by any of the three nationally-recognized rating agencies is as follows (in thousands):

	U.S. Govt / GSE 1				AAA - AA				A - BBB				Below Investment Grade				Not Rated				Total

1	U.S. government and government sponsored enterprises are not rated by the nationally-recognized rating agencies as these securities are guaranteed by agencies of the U.S. government or government-sponsored enterprises.

At June 30, 2011, approximately $469 million of the portfolio of privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities (based on amortized cost after impairment charges) was rated below investment grade by at least one of the nationally-recognized rating agencies. The aggregate unrealized loss on these securities totaled $62 million. Ratings by the nationally recognized rating agencies are subjective in nature and accordingly ratings can vary significantly amongst the agencies. Limitations generally expressed by the rating agencies include statements that ratings do not predict the specific percentage default likelihood over any given period of time and that ratings do not opine on expected loss severity of an obligation should the issuer default. As such, the impairment of securities rated below investment grade by at least one of the nationally-recognized rating agencies was evaluated to determine if we expect not to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. This evaluation was based on projections of estimated cash flows based on individual loans underlying each security using current and anticipated increases in unemployment and default rates, decreases in housing prices and estimated liquidation costs at foreclosure. The primary assumptions used in this evaluation were:

·	Unemployment rates – increasing to 9.5% over the next 12 months, dropping to 8% over the following 21 months, and holding at 8% thereafter.

·	Housing price depreciation – starting with current depreciated housing prices based on information derived from the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) data, decreasing by an additional 4% over the next twelve months and holding at that level thereafter.

·	Estimated Liquidation Costs – held constant at 25% to 30% for Jumbo-A loans and 35% to 38% for Alt-A loans of the then-current depreciated housing price at estimated foreclosure date.

·	Discount rates – estimated cash flows were discounted at rates that range from 2.90% to 6.25% based on our current expected yields.

We also consider the current loan-to-value ratio and remaining credit enhancement as part of the assessment of the cash flows available to recover the amortized cost of the debt securities. Each factor is considered in the evaluation.

The Company calculates the current loan-to-value ratio for each mortgage-backed security using loan-level data. Current loan-to-value ratio is the current outstanding loan amount divided by an estimate of the current home value. The current home value is derived from FHFA data. FHFA provides historical information on home price depreciation at both the Metropolitan Statistical Area and state level. This information is matched to each loan to estimate the home price depreciation. Data is accumulated from the loan level to determine the current loan-to-value ratio for the security as a whole.

A distribution of the amortized cost (after recognition of the other-than-temporary impairment) and fair value by current loan to value ratio for our below investment grade private label residential mortgage-backed securities is as follows (in thousands):

							Credit Losses Recognized

Total		60	$	469,396	$	407,321		34	$	4,303		44	$	60,507

Remaining credit enhancement is the amount of credit enhancement available to absorb current projected losses within the pool of loans that support the security. The Company acquires the benefit of credit enhancement by investing in super-senior tranches for many of our residential mortgage-backed securities. Subordinated tranches held by other investors are specifically designed to absorb losses before the super-senior tranches which effectively doubled the typical credit support for these types of bonds. Current projected losses consider depreciation of home prices based on FHFA data, estimated costs and additional losses to liquidate collateral and delinquency status of the individual loans underlying the security.

Based upon projected declines in expected cash flows from certain private-label residential mortgage-backed securities for which the Company had previously recognized other-than-temporary impairment charges in earnings and other comprehensive income, the Company recognized $4.3 million of additional credit loss impairments in earnings during the second quarter of 2011. The Company also recognized a $521 thousand other-than-temporary impairment on certain below investment grade municipal securities based on an assessment of the issuer's on-going financial difficulties. See additional discussion regarding the development of the fair value of the bonds in Note 12.

The following is a tabular roll forward of the amount of credit-related OTTI recognized on available for sale debt securities in earnings (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Mortgage Trading Securities

Mortgage trading securities are residential mortgage-backed securities issued by U.S. government agencies that have been designated as an economic hedge of the mortgage servicing rights and are separately identified on the balance sheet. The Company has elected to carry these securities at fair value with changes in fair value being recognized in earnings as they occur. Mortgage trading securities were carried at their fair value of $553 million at June 30, 2011 with a net unrealized gain of $5.7 million. Mortgage trading securities were carried at their fair value of $428 million at December 31, 2010, with a net unrealized loss of $5.6 million and fair value of $535 million at June 30, 2010 with a net unrealized gain of $14 million. The Company recognized a net gain of $9.9 million and $6.4 million on mortgage trading securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. The Company recognized net gains of $14.6 million and $15.1 million on mortgage trading securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.
