Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company enters into derivative instruments in connection with its risk management activities. These derivative instruments may include interest rate swaps, swaptions, futures and options on futures. The Company may also purchase or sell “To-Be-Announced,” or TBAs, purchase options on U.S. Treasury futures or invest in other types of mortgage derivative securities. The Company's derivative instruments were comprised of interest rate swaps, which were designated as trading instruments and were terminated during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments The following table presents the fair value of derivative instruments and their location in our condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively (dollar amounts in thousands):
Type of Derivative Instrument |  | Balance Sheet Location |  | March 31, 2020 |  | December 31, 2019
Interest rate swaps (1) |  | Derivative assets |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 15,878 |
(1) | All of the Company's interest rate swaps were cleared through a central clearing house. The Company exchanged variation margin for swaps based upon daily changes in fair value. As a result of amendments to rules governing certain central clearing activities, the exchange of variation margin is treated as a legal settlement of the exposure under the swap contract. Previously, such payments were treated as cash collateral pledged against the exposure under the swap contract. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the receipt or payment of variation margin as a direct reduction to or increase of the carrying value of the interest rate swap asset or liability on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Includes $29.0 million of derivative liabilities netted against a variation margin of $44.8 million at December 31, 2019.
The tables below summarize the activity of derivative instruments not designated as hedges for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively (dollar amounts in thousands):

The use of derivatives exposes the Company to counterparty credit risks in the event of a default by a counterparty. If a counterparty defaults under the applicable derivative agreement, the Company may be unable to collect payments to which it is entitled under its derivative agreements and may have difficulty collecting the assets it pledged as collateral against such derivatives. All of the Company's interest rate swaps were cleared through CME Group Inc. ("CME Clearing") which is the parent company of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc. CME Clearing serves as the counterparty to every cleared transaction, becoming the buyer to each seller and the seller to each buyer, limiting the credit risk by guaranteeing the financial performance of both parties and netting down exposures.
