During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company evaluated its securities held-to-maturity and determined that certain securities no longer adhere to the Company’s strategic focus and could be sold or reinvested to potentially improve the Company’s liquidity position or duration profile. Accordingly, the Company was no longer able to assert that it had the intent to hold these securities until maturity. As a result, the Company transferred all $740.9 million of its securities held-to-maturity to securities available-for-sale which resulted in a pre-tax increase to accumulated other comprehensive income of $22.0 million. Due to the transfer, the Company’s ability to assert that it has the intent and ability to hold to maturity debt securities will be limited for the foreseeable future.

The following table presents amortized cost and fair value of the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio by expected maturity. In the case of mortgage-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations, and SBA loan pool securities, expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers generally have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. For that reason, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations, and SBA loan pool securities are not included in the maturity categories.

The Company did not record OTTI for investment securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016. At June 30, 2017, the Company’s securities available-for-sale portfolio consisted of 223 securities, 61 of which were in an unrealized loss position. At December 31, 2016, the Company’s securities available-for-sale portfolio consisted of 161 securities, 59 of which were in an unrealized loss position and securities held-to-maturity consisted of 87 securities, 15 of which were in an unrealized loss position.

The Company monitors its securities portfolio to ensure it has adequate credit support. As of June 30, 2017, the Company believed there was no OTTI and did not have the intent to sell these securities and, for securities with fair value below amortized cost at June 30, 2017, it is not likely that it will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery. The Company considers the lowest credit rating for identification of potential OTTI. As of June 30, 2017, all of the Company's investment securities in an unrealized loss position received an investment grade credit rating.
