Fair Value, Measurement Inputs, Disclosure [Text Block]
The following tables display the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company often economically hedges the fair value change of its assets or liabilities with derivatives and other financial instruments. The tables below display the hedges separately from the hedged items, and therefore do not directly display the impact of the Company’s risk management activities.

The Company did not incur transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Transfers between Levels are deemed to take place on the first day of the reporting period in which the transfer has taken place.
The Company transferred one Level 2 asset in the amount of $3.0 million into Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2013. The asset was deemed to be Level 3 based on the limited availability of third-party pricing. However, during the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company transferred this asset along with two other Level 3 assets in the amount of $6.4 million into Level 2. The assets were deemed to be Level 2 based on the availability of third-party pricing and corroborating market data.

Significant increases/(decreases) in any of the inputs in isolation may result in significantly lower/(higher) fair value measurement. A change in the assumption used for discount rates may be accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the probability of delinquency and a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for prepayment rates.

____________________
(1)
Interest income on mortgage loans held-for-sale and held-for-investment in securitization trusts is measured by multiplying the unpaid principal balance on the loans by the coupon rate and the number of days of interest due.
(2)
The change in fair value on equity securities, mortgage loans held-for-investment in securitization trusts and collateralized borrowings in securitization trusts was due entirely to changes in market interest rates.
(3)
The change in fair value due to credit risk on mortgage loans held-for-sale was quantified by holding yield constant in the cash flow model in order to isolate the credit risk component.
