The following table presents the distribution by contractual maturity of AFS fixed-maturity securities at amortized cost, net of allowance for credit losses, and fair value as of March 31, 2023. Contractual maturity may differ from expected maturity as borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations.

Deposited and Pledged Securities
The fair value of securities on deposit with various regulatory authorities as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $
10
 million. These deposits are required to comply with state insurance laws.
Investment agreement obligations require the Company to pledge securities as collateral. Securities pledged in connection with investment agreements may not be repledged by the investment agreement counterparty. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of securities pledged as collateral for these investment agreements approximated $
228
 million and $
251
 million, respectively. The Company’s collateral as of March 31, 2023 consisted principally of U.S. Treasury and government agency and corporate obligations, and was primarily held with major U.S. banks.
Refer to “Note 8: Derivative Instruments” for information about securities posted to derivative counterparties.

Gross unrealized losses on AFS investments decreased as of March 31, 2023 compared with December 31, 2022 primarily due to lower interest rates, partially offset by widening credit spreads.
 
With the weighting applied on the fair value of each security relative to the total fair value, the weighted average contractual maturity of securities in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was
14
years. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were
495
and
210
securities, respectively, that were in an unrealized loss position for a continuous twelve-month period or longer, of which, fair values of
444
and
190
securities, respectively, were below book value by more than
5
%.
The following table presents the distribution of securities in an unrealized loss position for a continuous twelve-month period or longer where fair value was below book value by more than 5% as of March 31, 2023:

As of March 31, 2023, the Company concluded that it does not have the intent to sell securities in an unrealized loss position and it is more likely than not, that it would not have to sell these securities before recovery of their cost basis. In making this conclusion, the Company examined the cash flow projections for its investment portfolios, the potential sources and uses of cash in its businesses, and the cash resources available to its business other than sales of securities. It also considered the existence of any risk management or other plans as of March 31, 2023 that would require the sale of impaired securities.
Credit Losses on Investments
The Company’s fixed-maturity securities for which fair value is less than amortized cost are reviewed quarterly in order to determine whether a credit loss exists. If the Company determines that the declines in the fair value are related to credit loss, the Company will establish an allowance for credit losses and recognize the credit component through earnings. Refer to “Note 8: Investments” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for a discussion of the Company’s policy for its determination of credit losses. The Company did not purchase any credit-deteriorated assets for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Allowance for Credit Losses Rollforward for AFS
The following table presents the rollforward of allowance for credit losses on AFS investments for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The additions to the allowance for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were related to concerns on an issuer’s credit deterioration as a result of the Ukraine and Russia conflict. The Company did not establish an allowance for credit losses for AFS securities for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
