In connection with our insurance and reinsurance activities within MAC and MIC, insurance subsidiaries of MGIC, we are required to maintain assets in trusts for the benefit of contractual counterparties, which had investments at fair value of $128.4 million and $189.8 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to a decline in collateral required as the risk in force covered by these insurance and reinsurance activities has decreased. The amortized cost and fair values of fixed income securities at December 31, 2022, by contractual maturity, are shown in table 5.2 below. Actual maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Because most mortgage and asset-backed securities provide for periodic payments throughout their lives, they are listed in separate categories.

OTHER INVESTED ASSETS Our other invested assets balances includes an investment in Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") stock that is carried at cost, which due to its nature approximates fair value. Ownership of FHLB stock provides access to a secured lending facility. In the first quarter of 2022, we repaid the outstanding principal balance of our Federal Home Loan Bank Advance ("FHLB Advance") and accordingly reduced our investment in FHLB stock. At December 31, 2021, the FHLB Advance amount was secured by $167.2 million of eligible collateral. As a result of the prepayment of the FHLB Advance in 2022, we are no longer required to maintain collateral. UNREALIZED INVESTMENT LOSSES Tables 5.5a and 5.5b below summarize, for all available-for-sale investments in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the aggregate fair value and gross unrealized loss by the length of time those securities have been continuously in an unrealized loss position. The fair value amounts reported in tables 5.5a and 5.5b below are estimated using the process described in Note 6 - "Fair Value Measurements" to these consolidated financial statements.

Change in net unrealized gains (losses) Table 5.6 (In thousands) 2022 2021 2020 Fixed income securities $ (707,005) $ (154,555) $ 169,135 There were 1,226 and 610 securities in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Based on current facts and circumstances, we believe the unrealized losses as of December 31, 2022 presented in table 5.5a above are not indicative of the ultimate collectability of the current amortized cost of the securities. The unrealized losses in all categories of our investments were primarily caused by an increase in prevailing interest rates. We also rely upon estimates of several credit and non-credit factors in our review and evaluation of individual investments to determine whether a credit impairment exists. All of the securities in an unrealized loss position are current with respect to their interest obligations. The source of net investment income is shown in table 5.7 below.
