Short-Term Debt

Note 12. Short-Term Debt

We enter into repurchase agreements, bank warehouse agreements, and other forms of collateralized (and generally uncommitted) short-term borrowings with several banks and major investment banking firms. At December 31, 2014, we had outstanding agreements with several counterparties and we were in compliance with all of the related covenants. The table below summarizes the facilities that are available to us and the balances of short-term debt at December 31, 2014 and 2013, by the type of collateral securing the debt.

Borrowings under these facilities are generally charged interest based on a specified margin over the one-month LIBOR interest rate. At December 31, 2014, all of these borrowings were under uncommitted facilities and were due within 364 days (or less) of the borrowing date.

The fair value of residential loans, commercial loans, and real estate securities pledged as collateral was $1.22 billion, $161 million, and $762 million, respectively, at December 31, 2014. For the years ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, the average balance of short-term debt was $1.52 billion and $989 million, respectively. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, accrued interest payable on short-term debt was $1.90 million and less than $1 million, respectively.

 

We also maintain a $10 million committed line of credit with one financial institution, which is secured by our pledge of certain mortgage-backed securities we own. At both December 31, 2014 and 2013, we had no outstanding borrowings on this facility.
