The following table summarizes assets at carrying values that are pledged or restricted as collateral for the future payment obligations of repurchase agreements:
(in thousands) March 31,
2021		 December 31,
2020
Available-for-sale securities, at fair value $ 11,459,931  $ 14,633,217 
Restricted cash 642,872  1,071,239 
Due from counterparties 5,616  21,312 
Derivative assets, at fair value 53,776  61,557 
Total $ 12,162,195  $ 15,787,325 

Although the transactions under repurchase agreements represent committed borrowings until maturity, the respective lender retains the right to mark the underlying collateral to fair value. A reduction in the value of pledged assets would require the Company to provide additional collateral or fund margin calls.
As of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the net carrying value of assets sold under agreements to repurchase, including accrued interest plus any cash or assets on deposit to secure the repurchase obligation, less the amount of the repurchase liability, including accrued interest, with any individual counterparty or group of related counterparties did not exceed 10% of total stockholders’ equity. The Company does not anticipate any defaults by its repurchase agreement counterparties. There can be no assurance, however, that any such default or defaults will not occur.
