Risk Management Derivatives
To manage, to varying degrees, risks associated with certain assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet, we may enter into derivative contracts. At June 30, 2015, we were party to swaps and swaptions with an aggregate notional amount of $1.9 billion, TBA contracts sold with an aggregate notional amount of $2.5 billion, and financial futures contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $54 million. Net market valuation adjustments on risk management derivatives were negative $17 million and negative $29 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Net market valuation adjustments on risk management derivatives were negative $12 million and negative $25 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. These net market valuation adjustments are recorded in mortgage banking and investment activities, net on our consolidated statements of income.
Loan Purchase and Forward Sale Commitments
LPCs and FSCs that qualify as derivatives are recorded at their estimated fair values. Net valuation adjustments on LPCs and FSCs were positive $1 million and positive $19 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and are reported through our consolidated statements of income in mortgage banking and investment activities, net.
Derivatives Designated as Cash Flow Hedges
To manage the variability in interest expense related to our long-term debt and certain adjustable-rate securitization entity liabilities that are included in our consolidated balance sheets for financial reporting purposes, we designated certain interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges with an aggregate notional balance of $140 million.
For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, changes in the values of designated cash flow hedges were positive $15 million and negative $5 million, respectively, and were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of equity. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, changes in the values of designated cash flow hedges were positive $7 million and negative $14 million, respectively. For interest rate agreements currently or previously designated as cash flow hedges, our total unrealized loss reported in accumulated other comprehensive income was $39 million and $46 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, we reclassified less than $100 thousand of unrealized losses on derivatives to interest expense. Accumulated other comprehensive loss of less than $1 million will be amortized into interest expense, a component of our consolidated income statements, over the remaining life of the hedge liabilities.
The following table illustrates the impact on interest expense of our interest rate agreements accounted for as cash flow hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Derivative Counterparty Credit Risk
As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, we consider counterparty risk as part of our fair value assessments of all derivative financial instruments. At June 30, 2015, we assessed this risk as remote and did not record a specific valuation adjustment.
At June 30, 2015, we had outstanding derivative agreements with seven counterparties (other than clearinghouses) and were in compliance with ISDA agreements governing our open derivative positions.
