The collateral used under the Company's master netting agreements is typically cash, but securities may be used under agreements with certain counterparties. Receivables related to cash collateral that has been paid to counterparties are included in other assets. Payables related to cash collateral that has been received from counterparties are included in accounts payable and other liabilities. Interest is owed on amounts received from counterparties and we earn interest on cash paid to counterparties. Any securities pledged to counterparties as collateral remain on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had liabilities of $10.1 million and $12.8 million, respectively, in cash collateral received from counterparties and receivables of $218 thousand and $25 thousand, respectively, in cash collateral paid to counterparties.
