 security repurchase agreements with unrelated counterparties, which involve the transfer of a security from one party to another, and a subsequent transfer of substantially the same security back to the original party. These repurchase agreements are typically short-term in nature and are accounted for as secured borrowed funds in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognized no offsetting short-term receivables or payables associated with security repurchase agreements as of December 31, 2024 or 2023.Securitizations of mortgage loans retained in the investment portfolio for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were $329 million and $102 million, respectively.
