Accrued interest receivable. Report the amount of interest earned or accrued on earning
assets and applicable to current or prior periods that has not yet been collected.

AF
T

Exclude retained interests in accrued interest receivable related to securitized credit cards
(report in Schedule RC-F, item 6, "All other assets").
Net deferred tax assets. Report the net amount after offsetting deferred tax assets (net of
valuation allowance) and deferred tax liabilities measured at the report date for a particular tax
jurisdiction if the net result is a debit balance. If the result for a particular tax jurisdiction is a
net credit balance, report the amount in Schedule RC-G, item 2, "Net deferred tax liabilities." If
the result for each tax jurisdiction is a net credit balance, enter a zero in this item. (A bank
may report a net deferred tax debit, or asset, for one tax jurisdiction, such as for federal
income tax purposes, and also report at the same time a net deferred tax credit, or liability, for
another tax jurisdiction, such as for state or local income tax purposes.)
For further information on calculating deferred taxes for different tax jurisdictions, see the
Glossary entry for "income taxes."

Interest-only strips receivable (not in the form of a security) on. Report the fair value of
interest-only strips receivable (not in the form of a security) on mortgage loans and all other
financial assets. As defined in ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing (formerly FASB
Statement No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities,” as amended), an interest-only strip receivable is the
contractual right to receive some or all of the interest due on a bond, mortgage loan,
collateralized mortgage obligation, or other interest-bearing financial asset. This includes, for
example, contractual rights to future interest cash flows that exceed contractually specified
servicing fees on financial assets that have been sold. Report in the appropriate subitem
interest-only strips receivable not in the form of a security that are measured at fair value like
1
available-for-sale securities. Report unrealized gains (losses) on these interest-only strips
receivable in Schedule RC, item 26.b, "Accumulated other comprehensive income."

R

D

Exclude from this item interest-only strips receivable in the form of a security, which should be
reported as available-for-sale securities in Schedule RC, item 2.b, or as trading assets in
Schedule RC, item 5, as appropriate. Also exclude interest-only strips not in the form of a
security that are held for trading, which should be reported in Schedule RC, item 5.

3.a

Mortgage loans. Report the fair value of interest-only strips receivable (not in the form of a
security) on mortgage loans.

3.b

Other financial assets. Report the fair value of interest-only strips receivable (not in the
form of a security) on financial assets other than mortgage loans.

1

An interest-only strip receivable is not in the form of a security if the strip does not meet the definition of a security
in ASC Topic 320, Investments-Debt and Equity Securities (formerly FASB Statement No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities").

RC-F - OTHER ASSETS

Caption and Instructions
Separate account life insurance assets. Report the amount of the bank’s holdings of life
insurance assets associated with separate account insurance policies. In a separate account
policy, the policy’s cash surrender value is supported by assets segregated from the general
assets of the insurance carrier. Under such an arrangement, the policyholder neither owns
the underlying separate account created by the insurance carrier on its behalf nor controls
investment decisions in the underlying account, but does assume all investment and price
risk.

Hybrid account life insurance assets. Report the amount of the bank’s holdings of life
insurance assets associated with hybrid account insurance policies. A hybrid account
insurance policy combines features of both general and separate account insurance products.
Similar to a general account life insurance policy, a hybrid policy offers a guaranteed minimum
crediting rate, does not carry market value risk, and does not require stable value protection.
However, like a separate account life insurance policy, a hybrid policy’s cash surrender value
is supported by assets segregated from the general assets of the insurance carrier. Because
they are legally segregated, the assets of each separate account are not subject to claims on
the insurer that arise out of any other business of the insurance company. Additionally, the
bank holding the hybrid account life insurance policy is able to select the investment strategy
in which the insurance premiums are invested. Under such an arrangement, the policyholder
neither owns the underlying separate account created by the insurance carrier on its behalf
nor controls investment decisions in the underlying account.

R

5.c

AF
T

Separate accounts are employed by life insurers to meet specific investment objectives of
policyholders. The accounts are often maintained as separate accounting and reporting
entities for pension plans as well as fixed benefit, variable annuity, and other products.
Investment income and investment gains and losses generally accrue directly to such
policyholders and are not accounted for on the general accounts of the insurer. On the books
of the insurer, the carrying values of separate account assets and liabilities usually
approximate each other with little associated capital. Because they are legally segregated,
the assets of each separate account are not subject to claims on the insurer that arise out of
any other business of the insurance company.

NOTE: Items 6.a through 6.kj are to be completed semiannually in the June and December reports only.
6

All other assets. Report the amount of all other assets (other than those reported in
Schedule RC-F, items 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, above) that cannot properly be reported in
Schedule RC, items 1 through 10.

D

Disclose in Schedule RC-F, items 6.a through 6.kj, each component of all other assets, and
the dollar amount of such component, that is greater than $100,000 and exceeds 25 percent
of the amount of all other assets reported in this item.
For each component of all other assets that exceeds the reporting threshold for which a
preprinted caption has not been provided in Schedule RC-F, items 6.a through 6.hg, describe
the component with a clear but concise caption in Schedule RC-F, items 6.ih through 6.kj.
These descriptions should not exceed 50 characters in length (including spacing between

The full amount (with the exceptions noted below) of customers' liability to the reporting
bank on drafts and bills of exchange that have been accepted by the reporting bank, or
by others for its account, and are outstanding. The amount of customers' liability to the
reporting bank on its acceptances that have not yet matured should be reduced only
when: (a) the customer anticipates its liability to the reporting bank on an outstanding
acceptance by making a payment to the bank in advance of the acceptance's maturity
that immediately reduces the customer's indebtedness to the bank on such an
acceptance; or (b) the reporting bank acquires and holds its own acceptance. See the
Glossary entry for "bankers acceptances" for further information.

Refer to Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,”
for transition guidance. For institutions with a calendar year fiscal year, the ASU must be applied by public business
entities in their March 2016 Call Reports and by private companies in their December 2016 Call Reports. Early
adoption of the ASU is permitted. Until an institution has adopted the ASU in accordance with its applicable effective
date, all debt issuance costs should be reported on the balance sheet as an asset (i.e., a deferred charge). The
ASU is limited to the presentation of debt issuance costs; therefore, the recognition and measurement guidance for
such costs is unaffected.

RC-T – FIDUCIARY AND RELATED SERVICES

SCHEDULE RC-T – FIDUCIARY AND RELATED SERVICES
General Instructions
This schedule should be completed on a fully consolidated basis, i.e., including any trust company
subsidiary (or subsidiaries) of the reporting institution.

Does the institution have fiduciary powers? Federally-chartered institutions granted trust
powers by the OCC to administer accounts in a fiduciary capacity should answer "Yes."
State-chartered institutions should answer "Yes" if (a) the state has granted trust powers to
the institution to offer fiduciary services as defined by the state and (b) the institution's federal
supervisory agency (the FDIC or the Federal Reserve) has granted consent to exercise the
trust powers (see Sections 333.2 and 333.101 of the FDIC's regulations and Federal Reserve
Regulation H). Institutions with trust company subsidiaries should also answer “Yes.”
Institutions responding "No" should not complete the remainder of this schedule. Fiduciary
capacity generally means trustee, executor, administrator, registrar of stocks and bonds,
transfer agent, guardian, assignee, receiver, custodian under a uniform gifts to minors act,
investment adviser (if the institution receives a fee for its investment advice), any capacity in
which the institution possesses investment discretion on behalf of another, or any other
similar capacity.
Does the institution exercise the fiduciary powers it has been granted? Institutions
exercising their fiduciary powers should respond "Yes." Exercising fiduciary powers means
that an institution, or a trust company subsidiary of the institution, serves in a fiduciary
capacity as defined in the instructions for item 1 of this schedule.
Does the institution have fiduciary or related activity (in the form of assets or
accounts) to report in this schedule? Institutions (including their trust company
subsidiaries) with fiduciary assets, accounts, income, or other reportable fiduciary related
services should respond "Yes." Institutions responding "No" should not complete the
remainder of this schedule.

Reportable fiduciary and related services include activities that do not require trust powers but
are incidental to fiduciary services. Specifically, this includes custodial services for assets
held by the institution in a fiduciary capacity. An institution should report custodial activities
that are offered through the fiduciary business unit or through another distinct business unit
that is devoted to institutional custodial services. Institutions should exclude those custodial
and escrow activities related to commercial bank services such as hold-in-custody repurchase
assets, escrow assets held for the benefit of third parties, safety deposit box assets, and any
other similar commercial arrangement.
Institutions with fiduciary activities that are limited to only land trusts and/or custodial activity
for mortgage-backed securities (such as GNMA or FNMA) should respond "No."
If the answer to item 3 is "Yes," complete the applicable items of Schedule RC-T, as follows:

Institutions with total fiduciary assets (item 10, sum of columns A and B) greater than
$250 million (as of the preceding December 31) or with gross fiduciary and related services

test for quarterly reporting must also complete Memorandum item 4 annually with the
December report.

Fiduciary and Related Assets

D

R

Institutions should generally report fiduciary and related assets using their market value as of the report
date. While market value quotations are readily available for marketable securities, many financial and
physical assets held in fiduciary accounts are not widely traded or easily valued. If the methodology for
determining market values is not set or governed by applicable law (including the terms of the prevailing
fiduciary agreement), the institution may use any reasonable method to establish values for fiduciary and
related assets for purposes of reporting on this schedule. Reasonable methods include appraised values,
book values, or reliable estimates. Valuation methods should be consistent from reporting period to
reporting period. This "reasonable method" approach to reporting market values applies both to financial
assets that are not marketable and to physical assets. Common physical assets held in fiduciary
accounts include real estate, equipment, collectibles, and household goods.

Only those Individual Retirement Accounts, Keogh Plan accounts, Health Savings Accounts, and similar
accounts offered through a fiduciary business unit of the reporting institution should be reported in
Schedule RC-T. When such accounts are not offered through an institution’s fiduciary business unit, they
should not be reported in Schedule RC-T. Accounts that consist solely of deposits in the bank itself should
not be reported in Schedule RC-T.
If two institutions are named co-fiduciary in the governing instrument, both institutions should report the
account. In addition, where one institution contracts with another for fiduciary or related services
(i.e., Bank A provides custody services to the trust accounts of Bank B, or Bank A provides investment
management services to the trust accounts of Bank B), both institutions should report the accounts in their
respective capacities.

from an error, misfeasance, or malfeasance, the full amount of this loss must be recognized
on an accrual basis and included in the gross losses reported in the appropriate subitem and

reduction of the gross income from fiduciary and related services it reports in Schedule RC-T,
items 14 through 22, and Schedule RI, item 5.a, “Income from fiduciary activities,” in the
current or future periods when the “fee reduction” or “fee waiver” takes place. (See the

AF
T

If your institution has any assets covered by FDIC loss-sharing agreements, place an “X” in
the box marked “Yes” and complete items 9.a through 9.e, below.

If your institution does not have any assets covered by FDIC loss-sharing agreements, place
an “X” in the box marked “No” and skip item items 9.a through 9.e.

Note: Under a loss-sharing agreement, the FDIC agrees to absorb a portion of the losses on
a specified pool of a failed insured depository institution’s assets in order to maximize asset
recoveries and minimize the FDIC’s losses. In general, for transactions that occurred before
April 2010, the FDIC reimburses 80 percent of losses incurred by an acquiring institution on
covered assets over a specified period of time up to a stated threshold amount, with the
acquirer absorbing 20 percent of the losses on these assets. Any losses above the stated
threshold amount are reimbursed by the FDIC at 95 percent of the losses recognized by the
acquirer. For transactions that occurred after March 2010, the FDIC generally reimburses 80
percent of the losses incurred by the acquirer on covered assets, with the acquiring institution
absorbing 20 percent.
Loans and leases covered by FDIC loss-sharing agreements. Report the balance sheet
amount of loans and leases held for sale and loans and leases held for investment included
in Schedule RC-C, Part I, items 1 through 10, acquired from failed insured depository
