The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts from time to time to help mitigate the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the Company’s investments denominated in foreign currencies. In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Company mitigate its counterparty risk, the Company entered into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (the "ISDA Master Agreement") with its derivative counterparty, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The ISDA Master Agreement permits a single net payment in the event of a default or similar event. As of September 30, 2023, no cash collateral has been pledged to cover obligations and no cash collateral has been received from the counterparty with respect to the Company's forward currency contracts.
In connection with the issuance of the 2027 Notes and 2029 Notes, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements with the Royal Bank of Canada pursuant to ISDA Master Agreements. As of September 30, 2023, the Company paid $54.3 million to the Royal Bank of Canada to cover collateral obligations under the terms of the interest swap agreements, which is included in due from broker on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
