Provision for loan and lease losses. Institutions that have not adopted FASB Accounting
Standards Update No. 2016-13 (ASU 2016-13), which governs the accounting for credit
losses, should report the amount needed to make the allowance for loan and lease losses, as
reported in Schedule RC, item 4.c, adequate to absorb estimated credit losses, based upon
management's evaluation of the reporting institution’s loans and leases held for investment,
excluding such loans and leases reported at fair value under a fair value option. Loans and
leases held for investment are those that the reporting institution has the intent and ability to
hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff. Also include in this item any
provision for allocated transfer risk related to loans and leases. The amount reported in this
item must equal Schedule RI-B, Part II, item 5, column A, “Provision for credit losses.”

for investment and held-to-maturity debt securities), net investments in leases, and availablefor-sale debt securities. Provisions for credit losses (or reversals of provisions) on financial
assets measured at amortized cost and net investments in leases represent the amounts

management’s current estimate of expected credit losses on these assets. Provisions for
credit losses (or reversals of provisions) on available-for-sale debt securities represent
changes during the calendar year to date in the amount of impairment related to credit losses
on individual available-for-sale debt securities. Provisions for credit losses (or reversals of
provisions) on off-balance-sheet credit exposures represent the amounts necessary to adjust
the related allowance for credit losses at the quarter-end report date for management’s
current estimate of expected credit losses on these exposures. Exclude the initial allowance
gross-up amounts established upon the purchase of credit-deteriorated financial assets,
which are recorded at the date of acquisition as an addition to the purchase price to

expensed as provisions for credit losses (or reversals of provisions) on loans and leases held
for investment, held-to-maturity debt securities, and available-for-sale debt securities,
respectively, during the calendar year-to-date. Provisions for credit losses (or reversals of
provisions) on loans and leases held for investment and held-to-maturity debt securities
represent the amounts necessary to adjust the related allowances for credit losses at the
quarter-end report date for management’s current estimate of expected credit losses on
these assets. Provisions for credit losses (or reversals of provisions) on available-for-sale
debt securities represent changes during the calendar year to date in the amount of
impairment related to credit losses on individual available-for-sale debt securities. The sum
of the amounts reported in item 5, columns A through C, plus Schedule RI-B, Part II,
Memorandum items 5, “Provisions for credit losses on other financial assets measured at
amortized cost,” and 7, “Provisions for credit losses on off-balance-sheet credit exposures,”
must equal Schedule RI, item 4. If the amount reported in column A, B, or C for this item is
negative, report it with a minus (-) sign.

Adjustments. Report all activity in the allowance for loan and lease losses or the allowances
for credit losses, as applicable, that cannot be properly reported in Schedule RI-B, Part II,
items 2 through 5, above.
If the reporting institution was acquired in a transaction that became effective during the yearto-date reporting period, retained its separate corporate existence, and elected to apply
pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements (including its Consolidated Reports
of Condition and Income):
• A reporting institution that has not adopted ASU 2016-13 should report in column A of
this item as a negative amount the balance of the allowance for loan and lease losses
most recently reported for the end of the previous calendar year, as reported in
Schedule RI-B, Part II, item 1, column A, above.
• A reporting institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13 should report as negative amounts
in columns A, B, and C of this item the balances of the allowances for credit losses on
loans and leases held for investment, held-to-maturity debt securities, and available-forsale debt securities, respectively, most recently reported for the end of the previous
calendar year in Schedule RI-B, Part II, item 1, columns A, B, and C, above. In addition,
when applying pushdown accounting, for those financial assets that management has
determined to be purchased credit-deteriorated as of the institution’s acquisition date, the
institution should report as positive amounts in columns A, B, and C of this item, as
appropriate, the initial allowance gross-up amounts established as of the acquisition date,
which are recorded as an addition to the acquisition-date fair values of these purchased
credit-deteriorated assets to determine their initial amortized cost basis.
If the reporting institution was involved in a transaction between entities under common
control that became effective during the year-to-date reporting period and has been
accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of interests:
• A reporting institution that has not adopted ASU 2016-13 should report in column A of
this item the balance as of the end of the previous calendar year of the allowance for loan
and lease losses of the institution or other business that combined with the reporting
institution in the common control transaction.
• A reporting institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13 should report in columns A, B, and
C of this item the balances as of the end of the previous calendar year of the allowances
for credit losses on loans and leases held for investment, held-to-maturity debt securities,
and available-for-sale debt securities, respectively, of the institution or other business that
combined with the reporting institution in the common control transaction.

An institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13 should report in this item the amount of the
allowance for credit losses on loans and leases that is attributable to outstanding fees and
finance charges on credit cards (as defined for Schedule RC-C, part I, item 6.a). This
amount is a component of the amount reported in Schedule RC, item 4.c, and Schedule RI-B,
part II, item 7, column A.
Do not include in this item the amount of any valuation allowance established for impairment
in retained interests in accrued interest receivable related to securitized credit cards.

NOTE: Memorandum item 4 is to be completed only by institutions that have not adopted FASB
Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (ASU 2016-13), which governs the accounting for credit
losses. Institutions that have adopted ASU 2016-13 should leave Memorandum item 4 blank.

Amount of allowance for post-acquisition credit losses on purchased credit-impaired
loans accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 310-30 (former AICPA Statement of
Position 03-3). Report in this item the amount of any valuation allowances established after
acquisition for decreases in cash flows expected to be collected on purchased credit-impaired
loans and pools of purchased credit-impaired loans reported as held for investment in
Schedule RC, item 4.b, and accounted for in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-30,
Receivables – Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (formerly
AICPA Statement of Position 03-3, “Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired
in a Transfer”). These post-acquisition allowances should be included in the bank's
allowance for loan and lease losses as reported in Schedule RC, item 4.c, and
Schedule RI-B, part II, item 7. Under ASC Subtopic 310-30, for a purchased credit-impaired
loan accounted for individually (and not accounted for as a debt security), if, upon evaluation
subsequent to acquisition, it is probable based on current information and events that an
institution will be unable to collect all cash flows expected at acquisition (plus additional cash
flows expected to be collected arising from changes in estimate after acquisition), the
purchased credit-impaired loan should be considered impaired for purposes of establishing
an allowance pursuant to ASC Subtopic 450-20, Contingencies – Loss Contingencies
(formerly FASB Statement No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies”) or ASC Topic 310,
Receivables (formerly FASB Statement No. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan”), as appropriate. For purchased credit-impaired loans with common risk characteristics
that are aggregated and accounted for as a pool, this impairment analysis should be
performed subsequent to acquisition at the pool level as a whole and not at the individual
loan level.

NOTE: Memorandum item 5 is to be completed only by institutions that have adopted FASB Accounting
Standards Update No. 2016-13, which governs the accounting for credit losses. Institutions that have not
adopted ASU 2016-13 should leave Memorandum item 5 blank.

measured at amortized cost other than loans and leases held for investment, held-to-maturity
debt securities, and available-for-sale debt securities. Provisions for credit losses (or
reversals of provisions) on these other financial assets measured at amortized cost represent
the amounts necessary to adjust the related allowances for credit losses at the quarter-end
report date for management’s current estimate of expected credit losses on these assets.
Exclude provisions for credit losses on off-balance-sheet credit exposures, which are

Provisions for credit losses on off-balance-sheet credit exposures. Report in
this item the year-to-date amount of provisions for credit losses (or reversals of
provisions) on off-balance-sheet credit exposures included in the amount reported
in Schedule RI, item 4. Provisions for credit losses (or reversals of provisions) on
off-balance-sheet credit exposures represent the amounts necessary to adjust the
related allowance for credit losses at the quarter-end report date for
management’s current estimate of expected credit losses on these exposures.
Estimated amount of expected recoveries of amounts previously written off included
within the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases held for investment
(included in item 7, column A, “Balance end of current period”, above). Report in this
item the estimated amount of expected recoveries of amounts previously written off 1 included
within the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases held for investment. This item
applies to loans and leases held for investment, including purchased credit-deteriorated
loans held for investment, and does not apply to held-to-maturity debt securities or availablefor-sale-debt securities.
Expected recoveries of amounts previously written off and expected to be written off shall be
included in the allowance for credit losses and shall not exceed the aggregate of amounts
previously written off and expected to be written off by an institution. However, exclude from
this item the estimated amount of expected recoveries of amounts expected to be written off
included in the allowance for credit losses.
In accordance with ASU 2016-13, estimated expected recoveries are a component of
management’s estimation of the net amount expected to be collected for a financial asset or
a pool of financial assets. If an institution can support an estimate of expected recoveries for
a pool of unsecured loans, each of which was deemed uncollectible and fully written off on an
individual asset basis, the institution reduces the allowance for credit losses by the
institution’s estimate of recoveries expected on a pool basis.

RI-D – FOREIGN OFFICE INCOME

SCHEDULE RI-D – INCOME FROM FOREIGN OFFICES
General Instructions
Schedule RI-D is applicable only to certain banks that file the FFIEC 031 report forms.
Banks with foreign offices are required to complete this schedule if (1) their foreign office assets are
$10 billion or more and (2) their foreign office assets, revenues, or net income account for more than
10 percent of the bank’s consolidated total assets, total revenues, or net income; otherwise, banks need
not complete this schedule. Banks should use foreign office and consolidated total revenues (net interest
income plus noninterest income) and net income from the preceding calendar year and foreign office and
consolidated total assets as of the preceding calendar year end when determining whether they exceed
the $10 billion foreign office asset-size threshold and the 10 percent threshold for completing this
schedule each quarter during the next calendar year.
For purposes of these reports, a foreign office of the reporting bank is a branch or consolidated subsidiary
located in a foreign country; an Edge or Agreement subsidiary, including both its U.S. and its foreign
offices; or an IBF. In addition, if the reporting bank is chartered and headquartered in the 50 states of the
United States and the District of Columbia, a branch or consolidated subsidiary located in Puerto Rico or
a U.S. territory or possession is a foreign office. Branches on U.S. military facilities wherever located are
treated as domestic offices, not foreign offices.
Banks that are required to complete Schedule RI-D should report all income and expense in foreign
offices and related amounts for the calendar year-to-date. Amounts should be reported in this schedule
(except items 7, 11, and 12) on a foreign office consolidated basis, i.e., before eliminating the effects of
transactions with domestic offices, but after eliminating the effects of transactions between foreign offices.
For the most part, the income and expense items in Schedule RI-D mirror categories of income and
expense reported in Schedule RI. Therefore, where appropriate, banks should refer to the instructions for
Schedule RI for the definitions of the income and expense items in this schedule.

Construction, land development, and other land loans (in domestic offices) with
interest reserves. Memorandum items 13.a and 13.b are to completed by banks that had
construction, land development, and other land loans (in domestic offices) (as reported in
Schedule RC-C, part I, items 1.a.(1) and 1.a.(2), column B) that exceeded the sum of tier 1
capital (as reported in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 26) plus the allowance for loan and lease
losses or the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases, as applicable (as reported in
Schedule RC, item 4.c), as of the previous December 31. For purposes of Memorandum
items 13, 13.a, and 13.b, construction, land development, and other land loans (in domestic
offices) are hereafter referred to as “construction loans.”
When a bank enters into a loan agreement with a borrower on a construction loan, an interest
reserve is often included in the amount of the loan commitment to the borrower and it allows
the lender to periodically advance loan funds to pay interest charges on the outstanding
balance of the loan. The interest is capitalized and added to the loan balance.

13.a

Amount of loans that provide for the use of interest reserves. Report the amount of
construction loans included in Schedule RC-C, part I, items 1.a.(1) and 1.a.(2), column B, for
which the loan agreement with the borrower provides for the use of interest reserves.
If a construction loan included in Schedule RC-C, part I, items 1.a.(1) and 1.a.(2), column B,
has been fully advanced or the funds budgeted for interest have been fully advanced, but the
loan agreement provided for the use of interest reserves, continue to report the loan in this
item even if the borrower is now paying interest from other sources of funds. Similarly, if a
construction loan included in Schedule RC-C, part I, items 1.a.(1) and 1.a.(2), column B, has
been renewed or extended, but the original loan agreement provided for the use of interest
reserves, continue to report the loan in this item.
Include in this item new construction loans (as defined for and reported in Schedule RC-C,
part I, items 1.a.(1) and 1.a.(2), column B) that have been granted for the purpose of paying
interest on existing construction loans (in domestic offices) when the new construction loan is
secured by the same real estate that secures the existing construction loan.
Exclude construction loans for which the loan agreement with the borrower does not provide
for the use of interest reserves.

loans (as defined for Schedule RC-C, part I, item 1.a, column B) that has been capitalized
into the borrowers’ loan balances through the use of interest reserves (including interest
advanced on new construction loans granted for the purpose of paying interest on existing
construction loans when the loans are secured by the same real estate) and included in
interest and fee income during the quarter on “All other loans secured by real estate”
(Schedule RI, item 1.a.(1)(b), on the FFIEC 041; Schedule RI, item 1.a.(1)(a)(2) on the FFIEC

Pledged loans and leases. Report the amount of all loans and leases included in
Schedule RC-C, part I, above that are pledged to secure deposits, repurchase transactions, or
other borrowings (regardless of the balance of the deposits or other liabilities against which the
loans and leases are pledged) or for any other purpose. Include loans and leases that have
been transferred in transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings with a pledge of
collateral because they do not qualify as sales under 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). Also include loans and leases held for sale or
investment by consolidated variable interest entities (VIEs) that can be used only to settle
obligations of the same consolidated VIEs (the amounts of which are also reported in
Schedule RC-V, items 1.e and 1.f). In general, the pledging of loans and leases is the act of
setting aside certain loans and leases to secure or collateralize bank transactions with the bank
continuing to own the loans and leases unless the bank defaults on the transaction.
When a bank is subject to a blanket lien arrangement or has otherwise pledged an entire
portfolio of loans to secure its Federal Home Loan Bank advances, it should report the
amount of the entire portfolio of loans subject to the blanket lien in this item. Any loans within
the portfolio that have been explicitly excluded or specifically released from the lien and that
the bank has the right, without constraint, to repledge to another party should not be reported
as pledged in this item. However, if any such loans have been repledged to another party,
they should be reported in this item.

NOTE: Memorandum item 15 is to be completed for the December report only.

Reverse mortgages (in domestic offices). A reverse mortgage is an arrangement in which
a homeowner borrows against the equity in his or her home and receives cash either in a
lump sum or through periodic payments. However, unlike a traditional mortgage loan, no
payment is required until the borrower no longer uses the home as his or her principal
residence. Cash payments to the borrower after closing, if any, and accrued interest are
added to the principal balance. These loans may have caps on their maximum principal
balance or they may have clauses that permit the cap on the maximum principal balance to
be increased under certain circumstances. The reverse mortgage market currently consists

Eligible loan modifications under Section 4013, Temporary Relief from Troubled Debt
Restructurings, of the 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act. As
provided for under the 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES
Act), a financial institution may elect to account for an eligible loan modification under Section
4013 of that Act (Section 4013 loan). If a loan modification is not eligible under Section 4013,
or if the institution elects not to account for an eligible loan modification under Section 4013,
the institution should not report the loan in Memorandum items 17.a and 17.b and should
instead evaluate whether the modified loan is a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) under ASC
Subtopic 310-40, Receivables– Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors.
To be an eligible loan modification under Section 4013, as amended by the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2021, a loan modification must be (1) related to the Coronavirus Disease
2019 (COVID-19); (2) executed on a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of
December 31, 2019; and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of (A) 60 days
after the date of termination of the national emergency concerning the COVID-19 outbreak
declared by the President on March 13, 2020, under the National Emergencies Act or (B)
January 1, 2022 (the applicable period).
Institutions accounting for eligible loan modifications under Section 4013 are not required to
apply ASC Subtopic 310-40 to the Section 4013 loans for the term of the loan modification
and do not have to report Section 4013 loans as TDRs in regulatory reports, subject to the
following considerations for additional modifications. If an institution elects to account for a
loan modification under Section 4013, an additional loan modification could also be eligible
under Section 4013 provided it is executed during the applicable period and meets the other
statutory criteria referenced above. If an institution does not elect to account for a loan
modification under Section 4013 or a loan modification is not eligible under Section 4013
(e.g., because it is executed after the applicable period), additional modifications should be
viewed cumulatively in determining whether the additional modification is accounted for as a
TDR under ASC Subtopic 310-40.
Consistent with the CARES Act, the agencies are collecting information on a fully
consolidated basis about the volume of Section 4013 loans, including the number of Section
4013 loans outstanding (Memorandum item 17.a) and the outstanding balance of Section
4013 loans (Memorandum item 17.b). These two items are collected on a confidential basis
at the institution level. Once the term of an eligible Section 4013 loan modification ends, an
institution should no longer include the loan in these Schedule RC-C, Part I, Memorandum
items.
For further information on loan modifications, including those that may not be eligible under
Section 4013 or for which an institution elects not to apply Section 4013, institutions may
refer to the Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial
Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus (Revised), issued April 7,
2020, and the Joint Statement on Additional Loan Accommodations Related to COVID-19

received or held in connection with other such checks used (but not drawn) by the reporting bank,
until the amount of the checks is remitted to another party.

(9)

Checks drawn by the reporting bank on, or payable at or through, a Federal Reserve Bank or a
Federal Home Loan Bank.

(10) Refundable loan commitment fees received or held by the reporting bank prior to loan closing.
(11) Refundable stock subscription payments received or held by the reporting bank prior to the issuance
of the stock. (Report nonrefundable stock subscription payments in Schedule RC-G, item 4, "All
other liabilities.”)
(12) Improperly executed repurchase agreement sweep accounts (repo sweeps). According to
Section 360.8 of the FDIC’s regulations, an “internal sweep account” is “an account held pursuant
to a contract between an insured depository institution and its customer involving the pre-arranged,
automated transfer of funds from a deposit account to . . . another account or investment vehicle
located within the depository institution.” When a repo sweep from a deposit account is improperly
executed by an institution, the customer obtains neither an ownership interest in identified assets
subject to a repurchase agreement nor a perfected security interest in the applicable assets. In this
situation, the institution should report the swept funds as deposit liabilities, not as repurchase
agreements.
(13) The unpaid balance of money received or held by the reporting institution that the reporting
institution promises to pay pursuant to an instruction received through the use of a card, or other
payment code or access device, issued on a prepaid or prefunded basis.
In addition, the gross amount of debit items ("throw-outs," "bookkeepers' cutbacks," or "rejects") that

The distinction between transaction and nontransaction accounts is discussed in detail in the Glossary
entry for "deposits.”
Deposits defined in Regulation D as transaction accounts include demand deposits, NOW accounts,
telephone and preauthorized transfer accounts, and savings deposits. However, for Call Report purposes,
savings deposits are classified as a type of nontransaction account.
For institutions that have suspended the six transfer limit on an account that meets the definition of a
savings deposit, please see the “Treatment of Accounts where Reporting Institutions Have Suspended
Enforcement of the Six Transfer Limit per Regulation D” in the Glossary entry for “deposits” for further

Column Instructions
Deposits as summarized above are divided into two general categories, "Transaction Accounts"
(columns A and B) and "Nontransaction Accounts (including MMDAs)" (column C).
Column A – Total transaction accounts. Report in column A the total of all transaction accounts as
defined in the Glossary entry for "deposits." With the exceptions noted in the item instructions and the
Glossary entry, the term "transaction account" is defined as a deposit or account from which the depositor
or account holder is permitted to make transfers or withdrawals by negotiable or transferable instruments,
payment orders of withdrawal, telephone transfers, or other similar devices for the purpose of making
third party payments or transfers to third persons or others, or from which the depositor may make third
party payments at an automated teller machine (ATM), a remote service unit (RSU), or another electronic
device, including by debit card.
Column B - Memo: Total demand deposits. Report in item 7, column B, the total of all demand deposits,
both interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing. Also include any matured time or savings deposits without
automatic renewal provisions, unless the deposit agreement specifically provides for the funds to be
transferred at maturity to another type of account (i.e., other than a demand deposit). (See the Glossary
entry for "deposits.")
NOTE: Demand deposits are, of course, one type of transaction account. Therefore, the amount
reported in item 7, column B, should be included by category of depositor in the breakdown of transaction
accounts by category of depositor that is reported in column A.
Column C - Total nontransaction accounts (including MMDAs). Report in column C nontransaction
accounts as defined in the Glossary entry for "deposits." Include in column C all interest-bearing and
noninterest-bearing savings deposits and time deposits together with all interest paid by crediting savings
and time deposit accounts.

Item Instructions
In items 1 through 6 of Schedule RC-E, banks report separate breakdowns of their transaction and
nontransaction accounts by category of depositor. When reporting brokered deposits in these items, the
funds should be categorized as deposits of “Individuals, partnerships, and corporations,” “States and
political subdivisions in the U.S.,” or “Commercial banks and other depository institutions in the U.S.” based
on the beneficial owners of the funds that the broker has placed in the bank. However, if this information is
not readily available to the issuing bank for certain brokered deposits because current deposit insurance
rules do not require the deposit broker to provide information routinely on the beneficial owners of the
deposits and their account ownership capacity to the bank issuing the deposits, these brokered deposits
may be rebuttably presumed to be deposits of “Individuals, partnerships, and corporations” and reported
in Schedule RC-E, item 1, below. For further information, see the Glossary entry for "brokered deposits."

Extensions of credit by the reporting bank to its executive officers, directors,
principal shareholders, and their related interests as of the report date. For purposes
of this item, the terms "extension of credit," "executive officer," "director," "principal
shareholder," and "related interest" are as defined in Federal Reserve Board Regulation O
and 12 U.S.C. 375b(9)(D).
An "extension of credit" is a making or renewal of any loan, a granting of a line of credit, or an
extending of credit in any manner whatsoever. Extensions of credit include, among others,
loans, overdrafts, cash items, standby letters of credit, and securities purchased under
agreements to resell. For lines of credit, the amount to be reported as an extension of credit
is normally the total amount of the line of credit extended to the insider, not just the current
balance of the funds that have been advanced to the insider under the line of credit. An
extension of credit also includes having a credit exposure arising from a derivative
transaction, repurchase agreement, reverse repurchase agreement, securities lending
transaction, or securities borrowing transaction. See Section 215.3 of Regulation O and
12 U.S.C. 375b(9)(D)(i) for further details.
Loans that are guaranteed under the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Paycheck
Protection Program (PPP) are excepted from the requirements of section 22(h) of the Federal
Reserve Act and the corresponding provisions of Regulation O if they are not prohibited by
SBA lending restrictions. Accordingly, such PPP loans should not be reported in Schedule
RC-M, items 1.a and 1.b, below. See Section 215.3(b)(8) of Regulation O for further details.
An "executive officer" of the reporting bank generally means a person who participates or has
authority to participate (other than in the capacity of a director) in major policymaking
functions of the reporting bank, an executive officer of a bank holding company of which the
bank is a subsidiary, and (unless properly excluded by the bank's board of directors or
bylaws) an executive officer of any other subsidiary of that bank holding company. See
Section 215.2(e) of Regulation O for further details.
A "director" of the reporting bank generally means a person who is a director of a bank,
whether or not receiving compensation, a director of a bank holding company of which the
bank is a subsidiary, and (unless properly excluded by the bank's board of directors or
bylaws) a director of any other subsidiary of that bank holding company. See
Section 215.2(d) of Regulation O for further details.
A "principal shareholder" of the reporting bank generally means an individual or a company
(other than an insured bank or foreign bank) that directly or indirectly owns, controls, or has
the power to vote more than ten percent of any class of voting securities of the reporting
bank. See Section 215.2(m) of Regulation O for further details.
A "related interest" means (1) a company (other than an insured bank or a foreign bank) that
is controlled by an executive officer, director, or principal shareholder or (2) a political or
campaign committee that is controlled by or the funds or services of which will benefit an
executive officer, director, or principal shareholder. See Section 215.2(n) of Regulation O.

1.a

Aggregate amount of all extensions of credit to all executive officers, directors,
principal shareholders, and their related interests. Report the aggregate amount
outstanding as of the report date of all extensions of credit by the reporting bank to all of its
executive officers, directors, and principal shareholders, and to all of the related interests of
its executive officers, directors, and principal shareholders.
Include each extension of credit by the reporting bank in the aggregate amount only one time,
regardless of the number of executive officers, directors, principal shareholders, and related

to related interests) equals or exceeds the lesser of $500,000 or 5 percent of total
capital as defined for this purpose in agency regulations. Report the number of
executive officers, directors, and principal shareholders of the reporting bank to whom the
amount of all extensions of credit by the reporting bank outstanding as of the report date
equals or exceeds the lesser of $500,000 or five percent of total capital as defined for this
purpose in regulations issued by the bank's primary federal bank supervisory authority.
For purposes of this item, the amount of all extensions of credit by the reporting bank to an
executive officer, director, or principal shareholder includes all extensions of credit by the
reporting bank to the related interests of the executive officer, director, or principal
shareholder. Furthermore, an extension of credit made by the reporting bank to more than
one of its executive officers, directors, principal shareholders, or related interests thereof
must be included in full in the amount of all extensions of credit for each such executive
officer, director, or principal shareholder.

Intangible assets. Report in the appropriate subitem the carrying amount of intangible
assets. Intangible assets primarily result from business combinations accounted for under
the acquisition method in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (formerly
FASB Statement No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”), from acquisitions of portions or
segments of another institution's business such as mortgage servicing portfolios and credit
card portfolios, and from the sale or securitization of financial assets with servicing retained.
An identifiable intangible asset with a finite life (other than a servicing asset) should be
amortized over its estimated useful life and should be reviewed at least quarterly to determine
whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be
recoverable. If this review indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, the
identifiable intangible asset should be tested for recoverability (impairment) in accordance
with ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment (formerly FASB Statement No. 144,
“Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”). An impairment loss shall
be recognized if the carrying amount of the identifiable intangible asset is not recoverable and
this amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. The carrying amount is not recoverable if it
exceeds the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows from the identifiable
intangible asset. An impairment loss is recognized by writing the identifiable intangible asset
down to its fair value (which becomes the new accounting basis of the intangible asset), with
a corresponding charge to expense (which should be reported in Schedule RI, item 7.c.(2)).
Subsequent reversal of a previously recognized impairment loss is prohibited.
An identifiable intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should not be amortized, but
should be tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with ASC Topic 350,
Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (formerly FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets”).

2.a

Mortgage servicing assets. Report the carrying amount of mortgage servicing assets,
i.e., contracts to service loans secured by real estate (as defined for Schedule RC-C, part I,
item 1, in the Glossary entry for "Loans secured by real estate") under which the estimated
future revenues from contractually specified servicing fees, late charges, and other ancillary
revenues are expected to more than adequately compensate the servicer for performing the
servicing. A mortgage servicing contract is either (a) undertaken in conjunction with selling or
securitizing the mortgages being serviced or (b) purchased or assumed separately. For
mortgage servicing assets accounted for under the amortization method, the carrying amount
is the unamortized cost of acquiring the mortgage servicing contracts, net of any

Qualified Thrift Lender (QTL) test. Items 15.a and 15.b are to be completed by all
savings associations and by those state savings banks and cooperative banks that have
applied and have been permitted, under Section 10(l) of the Home Owners’ Loan Act (HOLA)
(12 U.S.C. 1467a(l)), to be deemed a savings association for purposes of holding company
regulation.
The QTL test has been in place since it was enacted as part of the Competitive Equality
Banking Act of 1987. To be a QTL, a savings association (or a state savings or cooperative
bank that has elected to be treated as a QTL) must either meet the HOLA QTL test (12
U.S.C. 1467a(m)) or the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Domestic Building and Loan
Association (DBLA) test (26 CFR 301.7701-13A). Under the HOLA QTL test, an institution
must hold “Qualified Thrift Investments” equal to at least 65 percent of its portfolio assets. To
be a QTL under the IRS DBLA test, an institution must meet a “business operations test” and
a “60 percent of assets test.” An institution may use either test to qualify and may switch
from one test to the other. However, the institution must meet the time requirements of the
respective test, which is:
•
•

Nine out of the last 12 months for the HOLA QTL test, and
The taxable year (which may be either a calendar or fiscal year) for the IRS DBLA test.

A savings association (or a state savings or cooperative bank that has elected to be treated
as a QTL) that fails to meet the QTL requirements is subject to certain restrictions, including
limits on activities, branching, and dividends.
15.a

Does the institution use the Home Owners’ Loan Act (HOLA) QTL test or the Internal
Revenue Service Domestic Building and Loan Association (IRS DBLA) test to
determine its QTL compliance? Indicate the test that the reporting institution uses to
determine its compliance with the QTL requirements. For the HOLA QTL test, enter the
number “1”; for the IRS DBLA test, enter the number “2.”

15.b

Has the institution been in compliance with the HOLA QTL test as of each month end
during the quarter or the IRS DBLA test for its most recent taxable year, as applicable?
Indicate whether the reporting institution has been in compliance with the HOLA QTL test as
of each month end during the quarter ending with the report date or the IRS DBLA test for its
most recent taxable year, as applicable. Place an “X” in the box marked “Yes” if the
institution has been in compliance with the applicable test for the specified period.
Otherwise, place an “X” in the box marked “No.”

International remittance transfers offered to consumers. Report in Schedule RC-M,
item 16.a and, if appropriate, items 16.b.(1) through 16.b.(3), information about international
electronic transfers of funds offered to consumers in the United States that:
(1) Are “remittance transfers” as defined by Subpart B of Regulation E (12 CFR
§ 1005.30(e)), or
(2) Would qualify as “remittance transfers” under Subpart B of Regulation E (12 CFR
§ 1005.30(e)), but are excluded from that definition only because the provider is not
providing those transfers in the normal course of its business. See 12 CFR § 1005.30(f).
For purposes of items 16.a and 16.b.(1) through 16.b.(3), such transfers are referred to as
international remittance transfers.
Under Subpart B of Regulation E, which took effect on October 28, 2013, and was most
recently amended effective July 21, 2020, a ‘‘remittance transfer’’ is an electronic transfer of
funds requested by a sender to a designated recipient that is sent by a remittance transfer
provider. The term applies regardless of whether the sender holds an account with the
remittance transfer provider, and regardless of whether the transaction is also an “electronic
fund transfer,” as defined in Regulation E. See 12 CFR § 1005.30(e).
A “sender” is a consumer in a State who primarily for personal, family, or household purposes
requests a remittance transfer provider to send a remittance transfer to a designated
recipient. See 12 CFR § 1005.30(g).
A “designated recipient” is any person specified by the sender as the authorized recipient of a
remittance transfer to be received at a location in a foreign country. See 12 CFR § 1005.30(c).
A “remittance transfer provider” is any person that provides remittance transfers for a
consumer in the normal course of its business, regardless of whether the consumer holds an
account with such person. See 12 CFR § 1005.30(f).
Examples of “remittance transfers” include the following (see Regulation E, Subpart B,
comment 30(e)-3.i):
(1) Transfers where the sender provides cash or another method of payment to a money
transmitter or financial institution and requests that funds be sent to a specified location
or account in a foreign country.
(2) Consumer wire transfers, where a financial institution executes a payment order upon a
sender’s request to wire money from the sender’s account to a designated recipient.
(3) An addition of funds to a prepaid card by a participant in a prepaid card program, such as
a prepaid card issuer or its agent, that is directly engaged with the sender to add these
funds, where the prepaid card is sent or was previously sent by a participant in the
prepaid card program to a person in a foreign country, even if a person located in a State
(including a sender) retains the ability to withdraw such funds.
(4) International automated clearing house (ACH) transactions sent by the sender’s financial
institution at the sender’s request.
(5) Online bill payments and other electronic transfers that a sender schedules in advance,
including preauthorized remittance transfers, made by the sender’s financial institution at
the sender’s request to a designated recipient.

Under Subpart B of Regulation E, the term “remittance transfer” does not include, for
example:
(1) Small value transactions, i.e., transfer amounts, as described in 12 CFR
§ 1005.31(b)(1)(i), of $15 or less. See 12 CFR § 1005.30(e)(2)(i).
(2) Securities and commodities transfers that are excluded from the definition of electronic
fund transfer under 12 CFR § 1005.3(c)(4). See 12 CFR § 1005.30(e)(2)(ii).
(3) A consumer’s provision of a debit, credit or prepaid card, directly to a foreign merchant as
payment for goods or services because the issuer is not directly engaged with the sender
to send an electronic transfer of funds to the foreign merchant when the issuer provides
payment to the merchant. See Regulation E, Subpart B, comment 30(e)-3.ii.A.
(4) A consumer’s deposit of funds to a checking or savings account located in a State,
because there has not been a transfer of funds to a designated recipient. See
Regulation E, Subpart B, comment 30(e)-3.ii.B.
(5) Online bill payments and other electronic transfers that senders can schedule in advance,
including preauthorized transfers, made through the website of a merchant located in a
foreign country and via direct provision of a checking account, credit card, debit card or
prepaid card number to the merchant, because the financial institution is not directly
engaged with the sender to send an electronic transfer of funds to the foreign merchant

Section 1102 of the 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, which was
enacted on March 27, 2020 and amended on June 5, 2020. PPP covered loans (PPP
loans) are fully guaranteed as to principal and accrued interest by the U.S. Small
Business Administration (SBA).
The PPPLF was authorized by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
on April 8, 2020, under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 343(3)).
Under the PPPLF, the Federal Reserve Banks extends non-recourse loans to eligible
lenders, with the extensions of credit secured by SBA-guaranteed PPP loans that the
lenders have originated or purchased.
Items 17.a through 17.e should be completed on a fully consolidated basis.

17.a

Number of PPP loans outstanding. Report the number of PPP loans outstanding held
by the reporting institution as of the report date whose outstanding balances are included

Pledged PPP loans held for investment or held for sale that should be included in this
item will also have been included in Schedule RC-C, Part I, Memorandum item 14,
“Pledged loans and leases.” On the FFIEC 031, pledged PPP loans held for trading that
should be included in this item will also have been included in Schedule RC-D,

Outstanding balance of borrowings from Federal Reserve Banks under the PPPLF
with a remaining maturity of. Report in the appropriate subitem the specified
information about the outstanding amount of borrowings from Federal Reserve Banks
under the PPPLF reported in Schedule RC, item 16. The maturity date of an extension of
credit under the PPPLF equals the maturity date of the PPP loan pledged to secure the
extension of credit, which is either two or five years from origination of the PPP loan.
However, the maturity date of the extension of credit will be accelerated and the
institution is required to repay the extension of credit under the PPPLF prior to its maturity
date when the institution has been reimbursed by the SBA for a PPP loan forgiveness (to
the extent of the forgiveness), has received payment from the SBA representing exercise
of the PPP loan guarantee, or has received payment from the PPP borrower of the
underlying PPP loan (to the extent of the payment received).
The remaining maturity is the amount of time remaining from the report date until the final
contractual maturity of the borrowing without regard to the borrowing’s repayment
schedule, if any.

SCHEDULE RC-N – PAST DUE AND NONACCRUAL LOANS, LEASES,
AND OTHER ASSETS
General Instructions
Report on a fully consolidated basis all loans, leases, debt securities, and other assets that are past due
or are in nonaccrual status, regardless of whether such credits are secured or unsecured and regardless
of whether such credits are guaranteed or insured by the U.S. Government or by others.
For assets that are past due or in nonaccrual status, institutions that have not adopted FASB Accounting
Standards Update No. 2016-13 (ASU 2016-13), which governs the accounting for credit losses, should
report the balance sheet amount of the asset in Schedule RC-N, i.e., the amount at which the asset is
reported in the applicable asset category on Schedule RC, Balance Sheet (e.g., in item 4.b, “Loans and
leases held for investment”), not simply the asset’s delinquent payments.
For assets that are past due or in nonaccrual status, institutions that have adopted ASU 2016-13 should
report the balance sheet amount of the asset in Schedule RC-N without deducting any applicable
allowance for credit losses, not simply the asset’s delinquent payments. For example, the amount to be
reported in Schedule RC-N for a past due or nonaccrual loan held for investment should equal the
amount at which the loan is reported in Schedule RC, Balance Sheet, item 4.b, “Loans and leases held
for investment.” The amount to be reported in Schedule RC-N, item 10, for a past due or nonaccrual
held-to-maturity debt security should equal the amortized cost at which the debt security is reported in
Schedule RC-B, Securities, column A.
Loan amounts should be reported net of unearned income to the extent that they are reported net of
unearned income in Schedule RC-C. All lease, debt security, and other asset amounts must be reported
net of unearned income.
For purposes of these reports, “GNMA loans” are residential mortgage loans insured or guaranteed by
the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), the Department of Agriculture Rural Development (RD)
program (formerly the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA)), or the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
or guaranteed by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and administered by the Office of
Public and Indian Housing (PIH) that back Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA)
securities. When an institution services GNMA loans after it has securitized the loans in a transfer
accounted for as a sale, 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) requires the institution to bring individual delinquent GNMA loans that it previously accounted
for as sold back onto its books as loan assets when, under the GNMA Mortgage-Backed Securities
Guide, the loan meets GNMA's specified delinquency criteria and is eligible for repurchase. This
rebooking of GNMA loans is required regardless of whether the institution, as seller-servicer, intends to
exercise the repurchase (buy-back) option. A seller-servicer must report all delinquent rebooked GNMA
loans that have been repurchased or are eligible for repurchase as past due in Schedule RC-N in
accordance with their contractual repayment terms. In addition, if an institution services GNMA loans, but
was not the transferor of the loans that were securitized, and purchases individual delinquent loans out of
the GNMA securitization, the institution must report the purchased loans as past due in Schedule RC-N in
accordance with their contractual repayment terms even though the institution was not required to record
the delinquent GNMA loans as assets prior to purchasing the loans. Such delinquent GNMA loans
should be reported in items 1.c, 11, and 11.b of Schedule RC-N.

RC-N - PAST DUE

Definitions
Past Due – The past due status of a loan or other asset should be determined in accordance with its
contractual repayment terms. For purposes of this schedule, grace periods allowed by the bank after a
loan or other asset technically has become past due but before the imposition of late charges are not to
be taken into account in determining past due status. Furthermore, loans, leases, debt securities, and
other assets are to be reported as past due when either interest or principal is unpaid in the following
circumstances:
(1) Closed-end installment loans, amortizing loans secured by real estate, and any other loans and lease
financing receivables with payments scheduled monthly are to be reported as past due when the
borrower is in arrears two or more monthly payments. (At a bank's option, loans and leases with
payments scheduled monthly may be reported as past due when one scheduled payment is due and
unpaid for 30 days or more.) Other multipayment obligations with payments scheduled other than
monthly are to be reported as past due when one scheduled payment is due and unpaid for 30 days
or more.
(2) Open-end credit such as credit cards, check credit, and other revolving credit plans are to be reported
as past due when the customer has not made the minimum payment for two or more billing cycles.
(3) Single payment and demand notes, debt securities, and other assets providing for the payment of
interest at stated intervals are to be reported as past due after one interest payment is due and
unpaid for 30 days or more.
(4) Single payment notes, debt securities, and other assets providing for the payment of interest at
maturity are to be reported as past due after maturity if interest or principal remains unpaid for
30 days or more.
(5) Unplanned overdrafts are to be reported as past due if the account remains continuously overdrawn
for 30 days or more.
For purposes of this schedule, banks should use one of two methods to recognize partial payments on
“retail credit,” i.e., open-end and closed-end credit extended to individuals for household, family, and
other personal expenditures, including consumer loans and credit cards, and loans to individuals secured
by their personal residence, including home equity and home improvement loans. A payment equivalent
to 90 percent or more of the contractual payment may be considered a full payment in computing
delinquency. Alternatively, a bank may aggregate payments and give credit for any partial payment
received. For example, if a regular monthly installment is $300 and the borrower makes payments of only
$150 per month for a six-month period, the loan would be $900 ($150 shortage times six payments), or
three monthly payments past due. A bank may use either or both methods for its retail credit, but may not
use both methods simultaneously with a single loan.
For institutions that have not adopted ASU 2016-13, when accrual of income on a purchased creditimpaired (PCI) loan accounted for individually or a PCI debt security is appropriate, the delinquency
status of the individual asset should be determined in accordance with its contractual repayment terms for
purposes of reporting the amount of the loan or debt security as past due in the appropriate items of
Schedule RC-N, column A or B. When accrual of income on a pool of PCI loans with common risk
characteristics is appropriate, delinquency status should be determined individually for each loan in the
pool in accordance with the individual loan’s contractual repayment terms for purposes of reporting the
amount of individual loans within the pool as past due in the appropriate items of Schedule RC-N,
column A or B. For further information, see the Glossary entry for “purchased credit-impaired loans and
debt securities.”
For institutions that have adopted ASU 2016-13, any PCI loans and debt securities held as of the
adoption date of the standard should prospectively be accounted for as purchased credit-deteriorated
(PCD) assets. As of the adoption date of the standard, the remaining noncredit discount or premium on a
PCD asset, after the adjustment for the allowance for credit losses should be accreted to interest income

at the new effective interest rate on the asset, if the asset is not required to be placed on nonaccrual. For
a PCD loan, debt security, or other financial asset within the scope of ASU 2016-13 that is not reported in
nonaccrual status, the delinquency status of the PCD asset should be determined in accordance with its
contractual repayment terms for purposes of reporting the amortized cost basis of the asset (fair value for
a PCD available-for-sale debt security) as past due in Schedule RC-N, column A or B, as appropriate. If
the PCD asset that is not reported in nonaccrual status consists of a pool of loans that was previously
PCI, but is being maintained as a unit of account after the adoption of ASU 2016-13, delinquency status
should be determined individually for each loan in the pool in accordance with the individual loan’s
contractual repayment terms. For further information, see the Glossary entry for “purchased creditdeteriorated assets.”
Nonaccrual – For purposes of this schedule, an asset is to be reported as being in nonaccrual status if:
(1) It is maintained on a cash basis because of deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower,
(2) Payment in full of principal or interest is not expected, or
(3) Principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more unless the asset is both well
secured and in the process of collection.
An asset is "well secured" if it is secured (1) by collateral in the form of liens on or pledges of real or
personal property, including securities, that have a realizable value sufficient to discharge the debt
(including accrued interest) in full, or (2) by the guarantee of a financially responsible party. An asset is
"in the process of collection" if collection of the asset is proceeding in due course either (1) through legal
action, including judgment enforcement procedures, or, (2) in appropriate circumstances, through
collection efforts not involving legal action which are reasonably expected to result in repayment of the
debt or in its restoration to a current status in the near future.
For purposes of applying the third test for nonaccrual status listed above, the date on which an asset
reaches nonaccrual status is determined by its contractual terms. If the principal or interest on an asset
becomes due and unpaid for 90 days or more on a date that falls between report dates, the asset should
be placed in nonaccrual status as of the date it becomes 90 days past due and it should remain in
nonaccrual status until it meets the criteria for restoration to accrual status described below.
In the following situations, an asset need not be placed in nonaccrual status:
(1) The asset upon which principal or interest is due and unpaid for 90 days or more is a consumer loan
(as defined for Schedule RC-C, part I, item 6, "Loans to individuals for household, family, and other
personal expenditures") or a loan secured by a 1-to-4 family residential property (as defined for
Schedule RC-C, part I, item 1.c, Loans "Secured by 1-4 family residential properties"). Nevertheless,
such loans should be subject to other alternative methods of evaluation to assure that the bank's net
income is not materially overstated. To the extent that the bank has elected to carry such a loan in
nonaccrual status on its books, the loan must be reported as nonaccrual in this schedule.
(2) For an institution that has not adopted ASU 2016-13, the criteria for accrual of income under the
interest method specified in ASC Subtopic 310-30, Receivables – Loans and Debt Securities
Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, are met for a PCI loan, pool of loans, or debt security
accounted for in accordance with that Subtopic, regardless of whether the loan, the loans in the pool,
or debt security had been maintained in nonaccrual status by its seller. (For PCI loans with common
risk characteristics that are aggregated and accounted for as a pool, the determination of nonaccrual
or accrual status should be made at the pool level, not at the individual loan level.) For further
information, see the Glossary entry for "purchased credit-impaired loans and debt securities."

Definitions (cont.)
(3) For an institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13, the following criteria are met for a PCD asset,
including a PCD asset that was previously a PCI asset or part of a pool of PCI assets, that would
otherwise be required to be placed in nonaccrual status (see the Glossary entry for “nonaccrual
status”):
(a) The institution reasonably estimates the timing and amounts of cash flows expected to be
collected, and
(b) The institution did not acquire the asset primarily for the rewards of ownership of the underlying
collateral, such as use of collateral in operations of the institution or improving the collateral for
resale.
When a PCD asset that meets the criteria above is not placed in nonaccrual status, the asset should be
subject to other alternative methods of evaluation to ensure that the institution’s net income is not
materially overstated. Further, regardless of whether a PCD asset is in nonaccrual or accrual status, an
institution is not permitted to accrete the credit-related discount embedded in the purchase price of such
an asset that is attributable to the acquirer’s assessment of expected credit losses as of the date of
acquisition (i.e., the contractual cash flows the acquirer did not expect to collect at acquisition). Interest
income should no longer be recognized on a PCD asset to the extent that the net investment in the asset
would increase to an amount greater than the payoff amount. If an institution is required or has elected to
carry a PCD asset in nonaccrual status, the asset must be reported as a nonaccrual asset at its \
amortized cost basis (fair value for a PCD available-for-sale debt security) in Schedule RC-N, column C.
(For PCD assets for which the institution has made a policy election to maintain previously existing pools
of PCI loans upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the determination of nonaccrual or accrual status should be
made at the pool level, not the individual asset level.) For further information, see the Glossary entry for
“purchased credit-deteriorated assets.”
As a general rule, a nonaccrual asset may be restored to accrual status when:
(1) None of its principal and interest is due and unpaid, and the bank expects repayment of the remaining
contractual principal and interest; or
(2) When it otherwise becomes well secured and in the process of collection.
For purposes of meeting the first test for restoration to accrual status, the bank must have received
repayment of the past due principal and interest unless, as discussed in the Glossary entry for
"nonaccrual status":
(1) The asset has been restructured in a troubled debt restructuring and qualifies for accrual status;
(2) The asset is a purchased credit-impaired loan, pool of loans, or debt security accounted for in
accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-30 and it meets the criteria for accrual of income under the
interest method specified in that Subtopic; or
(3) The borrower has resumed paying the full amount of the scheduled contractual interest and principal
payments on a loan that is past due and in nonaccrual status, even though the loan has not been
brought fully current, and certain repayment criteria are met.
For further information, see the Glossary entry for "nonaccrual status."
Restructured in Troubled Debt Restructurings – A troubled debt restructuring is a restructuring of a loan in
which a bank, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower's financial difficulties, grants a
concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. For purposes of this schedule, the
concession consists of a modification of terms, such as a reduction of the loan’s stated interest rate,
principal, or accrued interest or an extension of the loan’s maturity date at a stated interest rate lower
than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, regardless of whether the loan is secured or
unsecured and regardless of whether the loan is guaranteed by the government or by others.

Once an obligation has been restructured in a troubled debt restructuring, it continues to be considered a
troubled debt restructuring until paid in full or otherwise settled, sold, or charged off (or meets the
conditions discussed under “Accounting for a Subsequent Restructuring of a Troubled Debt
Restructuring” in the Glossary entry for “troubled debt restructurings). However, if a restructured
obligation is in compliance with its modified terms and the restructuring agreement specifies an interest
rate that at the time of the restructuring is greater than or equal to the rate that the bank was willing to
accept for a new extension of credit with comparable risk, the loan need not continue to be reported as a
troubled debt restructuring in calendar years after the year in which the restructuring took place. A loan
extended or renewed at a stated interest rate equal to the current interest rate for new debt with similar
risk is not considered a troubled debt restructuring. Also, a loan to a third party purchaser of "other real
estate owned" by the reporting bank for the purpose of facilitating the disposal of such real estate is not
considered a troubled debt restructuring.
For further information, see the Glossary entry for "troubled debt restructurings."
Column Instructions
The columns of Schedule RC-N are mutually exclusive. Any given loan, lease, debt security, or other
asset should be reported in only one of columns A, B, and C. Information reported for any given
derivative contract should be reported in only column A or column B.
Institutions that have adopted ASU 2016-13 should report asset amounts in columns A, B, and C without
any deduction for applicable allowances for credit losses.
Report in columns A and B of Schedule RC-N (except for Memorandum item 6) the balance sheet
amounts of (not just the delinquent payments on) loans, leases, debt securities, and other assets that are
past due and upon which the bank continues to accrue interest, as follows:

lease financing receivables, and open-end credit in arrears two or three monthly payments; other
multipayment obligations with payments scheduled other than monthly when one scheduled payment
is due and unpaid for 30 through 89 days; single payment and demand notes, debt securities, and
other assets providing for payment of interest at stated intervals after one interest payment is due and
unpaid for 30 through 89 days; single payment notes, debt securities, and other assets providing for
payment of interest at maturity, on which interest or principal remains unpaid for 30 through 89 days
after maturity; unplanned overdrafts, whether or not the bank is accruing interest on them, if the
account remains continuously overdrawn for 30 through 89 days.
(2) In column B, report the loans, lease financing receivables, debt securities, and other assets as
specified above on which payment is due and unpaid for 90 days or more.

In the FFIEC 031, Schedule RC-R, Part I, has two columns for items 11 through 19. Items 11 through 19
in column A are to be completed by non-advanced approaches institutions (including institutions subject
to Category III capital standards1) and items 11 through 19 in column B are to be completed by advanced

Community Bank Leverage Ratio Framework
Opting into the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) Framework ‒ A qualifying institution may opt
into the CBLR framework. A qualifying institution opts into and out of the framework through its reporting
in Call Report Schedule RC-R. A qualifying institution that opts into the CBLR framework (CBLR electing
institution) must complete Schedule RC-R, Part I, items 1 through 37, and, if applicable, items 38.a
through 38.c, and can make that election on Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 31.a. A qualifying institution can
opt out of the CBLR framework by completing Schedule RC-R, Parts I and II, excluding Schedule RC-R,
Part I, items 32 through 38.c. However, an otherwise qualifying institution’s primary federal supervisory
authority may disallow the institution’s use of the CBLR framework based on the supervisory authority’s
evaluation of the risk profile of the institution.
On April 23, 2020, the federal banking agencies published two interim final rules to provide temporary
relief to community banking organizations with respect to the CBLR framework, and the final rule became
effective November 9, 2020 with no changes to the interim final rules. The final rule provides community
banking organizations with a clear and gradual transition, by January 1, 2022, back to the greater than 9
percent leverage ratio qualifying criterion previously established by the agencies. The other qualifying
criteria in the CBLR framework have not been modified by the final rule.
A qualifying institution with a leverage ratio that exceeds the applicable leverage ratio requirement and
opts into the CBLR framework shall be considered to have met: (i) the generally applicable risk-based
and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ capital rules; (ii) the capital ratio requirements to be
considered well capitalized under the agencies’ prompt corrective action (PCA) framework (in the case of
insured depository institutions); and (iii) any other applicable capital or leverage requirements.3

1

Category III institutions include institutions, which are not advanced approaches institutions, that have (1) at least
$250 billion in average total consolidated assets or (2) at least $100 billion in average total consolidated assets and at
least $75 billion in average total nonbank assets, average weighted short-term wholesale funding; or average offbalance sheet exposure. In addition, depository institution subsidiaries of Category III institutions are considered
Category III institutions.

2

An institution that is subject to the advanced approaches capital rule (i.e., an advanced approaches institution as
defined in the federal banking agencies’ regulatory capital rules) is (i) a subsidiary of a global systemically important
bank holding company, as identified pursuant to 12 CFR 217.402; (ii) a Category II institution; (iii) a subsidiary of a
depository institution that uses the advanced approaches pursuant to subpart E of 12 CFR part 3 (OCC), 12 CFR part
217 (Board), or 12 CFR part 324 (FDIC) to calculate its risk-based capital requirements; (iv) a subsidiary of a bank
holding company or savings and loan holding company that uses the advanced approaches pursuant to subpart E of
12 CFR part 217 to calculate its risk-based capital requirements; or (v) an institution that elects to use the advanced
approaches to calculate its risk-based capital requirements.
Category II institutions include institutions with (1) at least $700 billion in total consolidated assets or (2) at least
$75 billion in cross-jurisdictional activity and at least $100 billion in total consolidated assets. In addition, depository
institution subsidiaries of Category II institutions are considered Category II institutions.

General Instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part I. (cont.)
Transition Provisions – Under the provisions of the transition interim final rule, an institution may qualify
for the CBLR framework if its leverage ratio is greater than 8.5 percent in calendar year 2021, and greater
than 9 percent in calendar year 2022 and thereafter, and it meets the qualifying criteria: it has less than
$10 billion in total consolidated assets (Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 32); is not part of an advanced
approaches banking organization; has total trading assets and trading liabilities of 5 percent or less of
total consolidated assets (Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 33); and has total off-balance sheet exposures
(excluding derivatives other than sold credit derivatives and unconditionally cancellable commitments) of
25 percent or less of total consolidated assets (Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 34). Also, the two-quarter
grace period for a qualifying institution will take into account the graduated increase in the community
bank leverage ratio requirement qualifying criterion. In order to maintain eligibility for the CBLR framework
during the transition period, an institution’s leverage ratio cannot fall more than one percentage point
below the community bank leverage ratio requirement qualifying criterion.

Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) Framework in Calendar Year 2022 and Thereafter ‒ In general,
an institution may qualify for the CBLR framework if it has a leverage ratio greater than 9 percent (as
reported in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 31); has less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets
(Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 32); is not an advanced approaches institution; has total trading assets and
trading liabilities of 5 percent or less of total consolidated assets (Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 33); and
has total off-balance sheet exposures (excluding derivatives other than sold credit derivatives
and unconditionally cancelable commitments) of 25 percent or less of total consolidated assets (Schedule
RC-R, Part I, item 34).
Ceasing to Meet the Leverage Ratio Requirement under the CBLR Framework or Failing to Meet Any of
the Other CBLR Qualifying Criteria ‒ A qualifying institution that temporarily fails to meet any of the
qualifying criteria, including the applicable leverage ratio requirement, generally would still be deemed
well-capitalized so long as the institution maintains a leverage ratio that does not fall more than one
percentage point below the leverage ratio requirement during the two-quarter grace period. At the end of
the grace period (see below for an example), the institution must meet all qualifying criteria to remain in
the CBLR framework or otherwise must apply and report under the generally applicable capital rule.
Similarly, an institution with a leverage ratio that is not within one percentage point of the leverage ratio
requirement qualifying criterion under the CBLR framework is not eligible for the grace period and must
comply with the generally applicable capital rule by completing all of Schedule RC-R, Parts I and II, as
applicable, excluding Schedule RC-R, Part I, items 32 through 38.c.
Under the CBLR framework, the grace period will begin as of the end of the calendar quarter in which the
CBLR electing institution ceases to satisfy any of the qualifying criteria and has a maximum period of two
consecutive calendar quarters. For example, if the CBLR electing institution had met all of the qualifying
criteria as of March 31, 2020, but no longer meets one of the qualifying criteria as of May 15, 2020, and
still does not meet the criteria as of the end of that quarter, the grace period for such an institution will
begin as of the end of the quarter ending June 30, 2020.
The institution may continue to use the CBLR framework as of September 30, 2020, but will need to
comply fully with the generally applicable capital rule (including the associated Schedule RC-R reporting
requirements) as of December 31, 2020, unless the institution once again meets all qualifying criteria of
the CBLR framework, including the leverage ratio requirement qualifying criterion, before that time.

General Instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part I. (cont.)
If a CBLR electing institution is in the grace period when the required community bank leverage ratio
increases, the institution would be subject, as of the date of that change, to both the higher community
bank leverage ratio requirement and higher grace period leverage ratio requirement. For example, if a
CBLR electing institution that had met all of the qualifying criteria as of September 30, 2020, has a 7.2
percent community bank leverage ratio (but meets all of the other qualifying criteria) as of December 31,
2020, the grace period for such an institution will begin as of the end of the fourth quarter of 2020. The
institution may continue to use the CBLR framework as of March 31, 2021, if the institution has a leverage
ratio of greater than 7.5 percent, and will need to comply fully with the generally applicable capital rule
(including the associated Schedule RC-R reporting requirements) as of June 30, 2021, unless the
institution has a leverage ratio of greater than 8.5 percent (and meets all of the other qualifying criteria) by
that date. In this example, if the institution has a leverage ratio equal to or less than 7.5 percent as of
March 31, 2021, it would not be eligible to use the CBLR framework and would be subject immediately to
the requirements of the generally applicable capital rule.
3-Year and 5-Year 2020 CECL Transition Provisions
In 2019, the federal banking agencies issued a final rule that, among other provisions, revised the
agencies’ regulatory capital rule and included a transition option that allows institutions to phase in over a
3-year transition period the day-one effects of adopting the current expected credit losses methodology
(CECL) on their regulatory capital ratios (2019 CECL rule).
In 2020, the agencies issued a final rule that provides institutions that implement CECL during the 2020
calendar year the option to delay for two years an estimate of CECL’s effect on regulatory capital, relative
to the incurred loss methodology’s effect on regulatory capital, followed by a 3-year transition period,
thereby resulting in a 5-year transition period (2020 CECL rule).
Eligibility for, and Transition Period under, the 3-Year CECL Transition – An institution is eligible to use
the 3-Year CECL transition provision if it experiences a reduction in retained earnings due to CECL
adoption as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the institution adopts CECL. The transition period
under the 3-year CECL transition provision means the three-year period beginning the first day of the
fiscal year in which an institution adopts CECL and reflects CECL in its first Call Report filed after that
date.
An institution that is eligible to use the 3-year CECL transition provision may elect to phase in the
regulatory capital impact of adopting CECL over a 3-year transition period (a 3-year CECL electing
institution). A 3-year CECL electing institution is required to begin applying the 3-year CECL transition
provision as of the electing banking organization’s CECL adoption date. A 3-year CECL electing
institution must indicate in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 2.a, its election to use the 3-year CECL transition
provision and must report the transitional amounts, as defined below and as applicable, in the affected
items of Schedule RC-R, adjusted for the transition provisions, beginning in the Call Report for the quarter
in which the institution first reports its credit loss allowances as measured under CECL.
An institution that does not elect to use the 3-year CECL transition provision in the Call Report for the
quarter in which it first reports its credit loss allowances as measured under CECL is not permitted to
make an election in subsequent reporting periods and is required to reflect the full effect of CECL in its
regulatory capital ratios beginning as of the institution’s CECL adoption date.
An institution that initially elects to use the 3-year CECL transition provision, but opts out of this transition
provision in a subsequent reporting period, is not permitted to resume using the 3-year CECL transition
provision at a later date within the 3-year transition period. An institution may opt out of applying the
transition provision by reflecting the full impact of CECL on regulatory capital in Call Report Schedule RCR.

General Instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part I. (cont.)
Eligibility for the 5-Year 2020 CECL Transition – An institution is eligible to use the 5-Year 2020 CECL
transition provision if it adopts CECL under U.S. GAAP as of the first day of a fiscal year that begins
during the 2020 calendar year and
(1) Reports a decrease in retained earnings immediately upon adoption of CECL; or
(2) Would report a positive modified CECL transitional amount (as defined below) in any quarter ending
in 2020 after adopting CECL.
An institution must indicate in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 2.a, its election to use the 5-year 2020 CECL
transition provision in calendar year 2020 in the first Call Report filed after the institution adopts CECL or
the same Call Report in which the institution first reports a positive modified CECL transitional amount for
any calendar quarter ending in 2020 (5-year CECL electing institution).
Even if an institution elects to use the 5-Year 2020 CECL transition provision, the institution may only
reflect the regulatory capital adjustments set forth in the 2020 CECL rule in the quarter or quarters in
which the institution implements CECL for regulatory reporting purposes. An institution that has elected
the 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision, but would not report a positive modified CECL transitional
amount in a particular quarter, is not required to make the adjustments in Call Report Schedule RC-R in
that quarter.
Transition Period under the 5-Year 2020 CECL Transition – Beginning with the earlier of:
(1) The first quarter of the fiscal year in which an institution was required to adopt CECL under U.S.
GAAP (as in effect on January 1, 2020), or
(2) The first day of a fiscal year that begins in the 2020 calendar year in which the institution files Call
Reports reflecting CECL,
and for the subsequent 19 quarters (for a total of 20 quarters or the five-year transition period), an
institution is permitted to make the adjustments described below to amounts used in calculating
regulatory capital.
If an institution temporarily ceases using CECL during this period (i.e., due to election of Section 4014 of
the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act))1, the institution may not reflect
regulatory capital adjustments for any quarter (during the first 8 quarters) in which it did not implement
CECL, but it would be allowed to apply the transition in subsequent quarters when the institution uses
CECL. However, an institution that has elected the transition, but does not apply it in any quarter, does
not receive any extension of the transition period.
Example 1: An institution was required to adopt CECL on January 1, 2020. This institution,
however, delays adoption of CECL under Section 4014 of the CARES Act until July 1, 2020, and
elects to use the 5-Year 2020 CECL transition provision. This institution’s transition period begins
on January 1, 2020, despite not adopting CECL until July 1, 2020. As such, on July 1, 2020, this
institution would have 18 quarters2 including the quarter of adoption, remaining in its transition
period.
Example 2: An institution was required to adopt CECL on October 1, 2020, and elects to use the
5-Year 2020 CECL transition provision. This institution does not delay adoption of CECL under
Section 4014 of the CARES Act. This institution’s transition period begins on October 1, 2020. As
such, on October 1, 2020, this institution would have 20 quarters, including the quarter of
adoption, remaining in its transition period.

Section 4014 of the CARES Act, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021,7 allows an
institution to delay the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments –
Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, until the earlier of (1)
January 1, 2022, or (2) the first day of the institution’s fiscal year that begins after the date of the termination of
the National Emergency

General Instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part I. (cont.)
For the first 8 quarters after the start of its transition period, an institution is permitted to make an
adjustment of 100 percent of the transitional items calculated below for each quarter in which the
institution applies CECL. Beginning with the ninth quarter of the transition period, the institution phases
out the cumulative adjustment as calculated at the end of the eighth quarter (i.e., the first two years of the
5-Year 2020 CECL transition provision) over the following 12 quarters as follows: 75 percent adjustment
in quarters 9-12 (i.e., Year three); 50 percent adjustment in quarters 13-16 (i.e., Year four); and
25 percent adjustment in quarters 17-20 (i.e., Year five).
Definitions – Institutions that elect either the 3-year CECL transition provision or the 5-year 2020 CECL
transition provision must calculate the following amounts, as applicable. AACL refers to Adjusted
Allowances for Credit Losses and ALLL refers to the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses, both as
defined in the regulatory capital rule (12 CFR 3.2 (OCC); 12 CFR 217.2 (Board); and 12 CFR 324.2
(FDIC)).
•

CECL transitional amount means the difference, net of any deferred tax assets (DTAs), in the
amount of an institution’s retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
institution adopts CECL from the amount of the institution’s retained earnings as of the closing of
the fiscal year- end immediately prior to the institution’s adoption of CECL.

•

DTA transitional amount means the difference in the amount of an institution’s DTAs arising from
temporary differences as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the institution adopts CECL
from the amount of the institution’s DTAs arising from temporary differences as of the closing of
the fiscal year-end immediately prior to the institution’s adoption of CECL.

•

AACL transitional amount means the difference in the amount of an institution’s AACL as of the
beginning of the fiscal year in which the institution adopts CECL and the amount of the
institution’s ALLL as of the closing of the fiscal year-end immediately prior to the institution’s
adoption of CECL.

•

Eligible credit reserves transitional amount means the difference in the amount of an advanced
approaches institution’s eligible credit reserves as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
institution adopts CECL from the amount of the institution’s eligible credit reserves as of the
closing of the fiscal year-end immediately prior to the institution’s adoption of CECL.

In addition, institutions that elect the 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision must calculate the following
amounts:
•

Modified CECL transitional amount means:
o During the first two years of the transition period, the difference between the AACL as reported in
the most recent Call Report, and the AACL as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
institution adopts CECL, multiplied by 0.25, plus the CECL transitional amount, and
o During the last three years of the transition period, the difference between the AACL as reported
in the Call Report at the end of the second year of the transition period and the AACL as of the
beginning of the fiscal year in which the institution adopts CECL, multiplied by 0.25, plus the
CECL transitional amount.

•

Modified AACL transitional amount means:
o During the first two years of the transition period, the difference between the AACL as reported in
the most recent Call Report, and the AACL as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
institution adopts CECL, multiplied by 0.25, plus the AACL transitional amount, and
o During the last three years of the transition period, the difference between the AACL as reported
in the Call Report at the end of the second year of the transition period and the AACL as of the
beginning of the fiscal year in which the institution adopts CECL, multiplied by 0.25, plus the
AACL transitional amount.

A 3-year or 5-year CECL electing advanced approaches institution (1) that has completed the parallel run
process and has received notification from its primary federal regulator pursuant to section 121(d) under
subpart E of the regulatory capital rules, (2) whose amount of expected credit loss exceeded its eligible
credit reserves immediately prior to the adoption of CECL, and (3) would have an increase in common
equity tier 1 capital as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it adopts CECL after including the first
year portion of the CECL transitional amount or modified CECL transitional amount, as applicable, must
decrease its CECL transitional amount or modified CECL transitional amount, as applicable, by its DTA
transitional amount.
Example and a Worksheet Calculation for the 3-year CECL Transition Provision
Assumptions:
•
•

•

•

For example, consider an institution that elects to apply the 3-year CECL transition and has a CECL
effective date of January 1, 2020, and a 21 percent tax rate.
On the closing balance sheet date immediately prior to adopting CECL (i.e., December 31, 2019), the
3-year CECL electing institution has $10 million in retained earnings and $1 million in the allowance
for loan and lease losses. On the opening balance sheet date immediately after adopting CECL
(i.e., January 1, 2020), the 3-year CECL electing institution has $1.2 million in allowances for credit
losses (ACL), which also equals $1.2 million of AACL, as defined in the regulatory capital rules.
The 3-year CECL electing institution recognizes the effect of the adoption of CECL as of January 1,
2020, by recording an increase in its ACL of $200,000 (credit), with an offsetting increase in
temporary difference DTAs of $42,000 (debit) and a reduction in beginning retained earnings of
$158,000 (debit)
For each of the quarterly reporting periods in year 1 of the transition period (i.e., 2020), the 3-year
CECL electing institution increases both retained earnings and average total consolidated assets by
$118,500 ($158,000 x 75 percent), decreases temporary difference DTAs by $31,500 ($42,000 x
75 percent), and decreases AACL by $150,000 ($200,000 x 75 percent) for purposes of calculating its
regulatory capital ratios. The remainder of the 3-year CECL transition provision of the 3-year CECL
electing institution is transitioned into regulatory capital according to the schedule provided in Table 1
below.

Example of Application of the 5-Year CECL Transition Provision for Third Quarter 2020
As an example, assume an institution is required under U.S. GAAP to adopt CECL on January 1, 2020.
This institution chose not to delay adoption of CECL for Call Report purposes under the provisions of
Section 4014 of the CARES Act, and elected to use the 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision in the
March 31, 2020, Call Report. This institution’s 5-year 2020 CECL transition period begins on January 1,
2020.
The institution’s December 31, 2019, Call Report reflected the following amounts:
• ALLL: $120
• Temporary Difference DTAs: $20
• Retained earnings: $200
• Eligible credit reserves (advanced approaches institutions only): $110
On January 1, 2020, the institution adopted CECL and reflected the following amounts:
• AACL: $150
• AACL transitional amount = $150 - $120 = $30
(AACL on 1/1/20 – ALLL on 12/31/19)
• Temporary difference DTAs: $30
• DTA transitional amount = $30 - $20 = $10
(DTAs on 1/1/20 – DTAs on 12/31/19)
• Retained earnings: $180
• CECL transitional amount = $200 - $180 = $20
(Retained earnings on 12/31/19 – retained earnings on 1/1/20)
• Eligible credit reserves (advanced approaches institutions only): $140
• Eligible credit reserves transitional amount (advanced approaches institutions only) = $140 - $110
= $30
(Eligible credit reserves on 1/1/20 – eligible credit reserves on 12/31/19)
On September 30, 2020, the institution reflected the following amounts:
• AACL: $170
• Modified AACL transitional amount = ($170-$150)*0.25 + $30 = $35
(AACL on 9/30/20 – AACL on 1/1/20)*0.25 + AACL transitional amount)
• Modified CECL transitional amount = ($170-$150)*0.25 + $20 = $25
(AACL on 9/30/20 – AACL on 1/1/20)*0.25 + CECL transitional amount)
The institution would adjust the following items in its September 30, 2020, Call Report, Schedule RC-R:
•
•
•

Part I, Item 2 (Retained earnings): Add $25 (modified CECL transitional amount)
Part I, Item 15, 15.a, or 15.b, as applicable (temporary difference DTAs): Subtract $10 (DTA
transitional amount) when calculating temporary difference DTAs subject to deduction
Part I, Item 27 (Average total consolidated assets): Add $25 (modified CECL transitional amount)

An institution that is not electing the CBLR framework in its September 30, 2020, Call
Report, would make these additional Schedule RC-R adjustments:
• Part I, Item 42 (Allowances in tier 2 capital): Subtract $35 (modified AACL transitional amount)
• Part II, Item 8 (All other assets): Subtract $10 (DTA transitional amount)

• Part I, Item 55.a (Total leverage exposure for SLR): Add $25 (modified CECL transitional amount)
An institution subject to the advanced approaches capital rule that has exited parallel run
would make this additional Schedule RC-R adjustment in its September 30, 2020, Call

Advanced Approaches Institutions: Advanced approaches institutions may use the amounts reported
in Schedule RC-R, Part I, to complete the FFIEC 101, Schedule A, as applicable. As described in the
General Instructions for the FFIEC 101, an institution must begin reporting on the FFIEC 101,
Schedule A, except for a few specific line items, at the end of the quarter after the quarter in which the
institution triggers one of the threshold criteria for applying the advanced approaches rule or elects to use
the advanced approaches rule (an opt-in institution),2 and it must begin reporting data on the remaining
schedules of the FFIEC 101 at the end of the first quarter in which it has begun its parallel run period.
Advanced approaches institutions must continue to file Schedule RC-R, Regulatory Capital, as well as the
FFIEC 101.

1 An institution is deemed to have elected to use the advanced approaches rule on the date that its primary federal
supervisor receives from the institution a board-approved implementation plan pursuant to section 121(b)(2) of the
regulatory capital rules. After that date, in addition to being required to report on the FFIEC 101, Schedule A, the
institution may no longer apply the AOCI opt-out election in section 22(b)(2) of the regulatory capital rules and it
becomes subject to the supplementary leverage ratio in section 10(c)(4) of the rules

An institution that has adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13
(ASU 2016-13), which governs the accounting for credit losses and introduces the current
expected credit losses methodology (CECL), and has elected to apply the 3-year CECL
transition provision (3-year CECL electing institution) should also include in this item its
applicable CECL transitional amount, in accordance with section 301 of the regulatory capital
rules. Specifically, a 3-year CECL electing institution should increase retained earnings by
75 percent of its CECL transitional amount during the first year of the transition period, 50
percent of its CECL transitional amount during the second year of the transition period, and
25 percent of its CECL transitional amount during the third year of the transition period.
An institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13, and has elected to apply the 5-year 2020 CECL
transition provision (5-year CECL electing institution) should also include in this item its
applicable modified CECL transitional amount in accordance with section 301 of the

To be completed only by institutions that have adopted ASU 2016-13: Does your
institution have a CECL transition election in effect as of the quarter-end report date?
An institution may make a one-time election to use the 3-year CECL transition provision (a 3year CECL electing institution) or the 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision (a 5-year CECL
electing institution), as described in section 301 of the regulatory capital rules and in the
General Instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part I.
An institution that is required to use CECL for regulatory reporting purposes and intends to
use the 3-year or the 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision must elect to use the 3-year or
the 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision in the first Call Report the institution files that
includes CECL after the institution is required to use CECL for regulatory reporting purposes.
An institution that does not elect to use the 3-year or the 5-year 2020 CECL transition as of
the first Call Report the institution files that includes CECL after the institution is required to
use CECL for regulatory reporting purposes would not be permitted to use the 3-year or the
5-year 2020 CECL transition provision in subsequent reporting periods.1 For example, an
institution that adopts CECL as of January 1, 2020 (i.e., does not delay adoption of CECL
under Section 4014 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act), records a
reduction in retained earnings due to the adoption of CECL, and does not elect to use the
CECL transition provision in its Call Report for the March 31, 2020, report date would not be
permitted to use the 3-year or the 5-year CECL transition provision in any subsequent
reporting period.
An institution that has adopted CECL and has elected to apply the 3-year CECL transition
provision must enter “1” for “Yes with a 3-year CECL transition election” in item 2.a for each
quarter in which the institution uses the transition provision. An institution that has adopted
CECL and has elected to apply the 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision must enter “2” for
“Yes with a 5-year 2020 CECL transition election” in item 2.a for each quarter in which the
institution uses the transition provision. An institution that has adopted CECL and has elected
not to use a CECL transition provision must enter a “0” for “No” in item 2.a. An institution that
has not adopted CECL should leave item 2.a blank.

An institution that did not make a 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision election because it did not record a
reduction in retained earnings due to the adoption of CECL as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
institution adopted CECL may use the 5-year 2020 CECL transition provision if it has a positive modified CECL
transitional amount during any quarter ending in 2020 and makes the election in the Call Report filed for the same
quarter.

2026, item 2.a will be removed from Schedule RC-R, Part I, because the optional 3-year and
5-year 2020 transition periods will have ended for all CECL electing institutions. If an
individual CECL electing institution’s 3-year or 5-year transition period ends before item 2.a is
removed (e.g., its transition period ends December 31, 2022), the institution would report “0”
in item 2.a to indicate that it no longer has a CECL transition election in effect.

Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). Report the amount of AOCI as
reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that is included in
Schedule RC, item 26.b.

3.a

AOCI opt-out election.
(i) All institutions, except advanced approaches institutions
An institution that is not an advanced approaches institution may make a one-time election to
become subject to the AOCI-related adjustments in Schedule RC-R, Part I, items 9.a through
9.e. That is, such an institution may opt out of the requirement to include most components
of AOCI in common equity tier 1 capital (with the exception of accumulated net gains and
losses on cash flow hedges related to items that are not recognized at fair value on the
balance sheet). An institution that makes an AOCI opt-out election must enter “1” for “Yes” in
this item 3.a.
Each institution (except an advanced approaches institution) in existence as of March 31,
2015, made its AOCI opt-out election on the institution’s March 31, 2015, Call Report.
For an institution that comes into existence after March 31, 2015, or becomes a nonadvanced approaches institution, the institution must make its AOCI opt-out election in the
first Call Report the institution files after the occurrence of this event. After an institution
initially makes its AOCI opt-out election, the institution must report its election in each
quarterly Call Report thereafter. Each of the institution’s depository institution subsidiaries, if
any, must elect the same option as the institution. With prior notice to its primary federal
supervisor, an institution resulting from a merger, acquisition, or purchase transaction may
make a new AOCI opt-out election, as described in section 22(b)(2) of the regulatory capital
rules.
(ii) Institutions that do not make an AOCI opt-out election and all advanced
approaches institutions:
An institution that does not make an AOCI opt-out election and enters “0” for “No” in this
item 3.a and all advanced approaches institutions are subject to the AOCI-related adjustment
in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 9.f.

Common equity tier 1 minority interest includable in common equity tier 1 capital.
Report the aggregate amount of common equity tier 1 minority interest, calculated as
described below and in section 21 of the regulatory capital rules. Common equity tier 1
minority interest is the portion of common equity tier 1 capital in a reporting institution’s
subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the parent institution. Note that a bank
may only include common equity tier 1 minority interest if: (a) the subsidiary is a depository
institution or a foreign bank; and (b) the capital instruments issued by the subsidiary meet all
of the criteria for common equity tier 1 capital (qualifying common equity tier 1 capital
instruments).

threshold-based deductions. Report the amount of all other deductions from (additions to)
common equity tier 1 capital that are not included in Schedule RC-R, Part I, items 1 through
9, as described below.
(1) After-tax gain-on-sale in connection with a securitization exposure. Include any
after-tax gain-on-sale in connection with a securitization exposure. Gain-on-sale means
an increase in the equity capital of an institution resulting from a securitization (other than
an increase in equity capital resulting from the institution’s receipt of cash in connection
with the securitization or reporting of a mortgage servicing asset on Schedule RC).
(2) Defined benefit pension fund net asset, net of associated DTLs. An institution that is
not an insured depository institution should include any defined benefit pension fund net
asset. This amount may be net of any associated DTLs in accordance with section 22(e)
of the capital rules.
(3) Investments in the institution’s own shares to the extent not excluded as part of
treasury stock. Include the institution’s investments in (including any contractual
obligation to purchase) its own common stock instruments, including direct, indirect, and
synthetic exposures to such capital instruments (as defined in the regulatory capital
rules), to the extent such capital instruments are not excluded as part of treasury stock,
reported in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 1.
If an institution already deducts its investment in its own shares (for example, treasury
stock) from its common equity tier 1 capital elements, it does not need to make such
deduction twice.
An institution may deduct gross long positions net of short positions in the same
underlying instrument only if the short positions involve no counterparty credit risk and all
other criteria in section 22(h) of the regulatory capital rules are met.

The institution must look through any holdings of index securities to deduct investments
in its own capital instruments. In addition:
(i) Gross long positions in investments in an institution’s own regulatory capital
instruments resulting from holdings of index securities may be netted against short
positions in the same underlying index;
(ii) Short positions in index securities to hedge long cash or synthetic positions may be
decomposed to recognize the hedge; and
(iii) The portion of the index composed of the same underlying exposure that is being
hedged may be used to offset the long position only if both the exposure being
hedged and the short position in the index are covered positions under the market
risk rule, and the hedge is deemed effective by the institution’s internal control
processes.
(4) Reciprocal cross-holdings in the capital of financial institutions in the form of
common stock. Include investments in the capital of other financial institutions (in the
form of common stock) that the institution holds reciprocally (this is the corresponding
deduction approach). Such reciprocal crossholdings may result from a formal or informal
arrangement to swap, exchange, or otherwise intend to hold each other’s capital
instruments.
(5) Equity investments in financial subsidiaries. Include the aggregate amount of the
institutions’ outstanding equity investments, including retained earnings, in its financial
subsidiaries (as defined in 12 CFR 5.39 (OCC); 12 CFR 208.77 (Board); and
12 CFR 362.17 (FDIC)). The assets and liabilities of financial subsidiaries may not be
consolidated with those of the parent institution for regulatory capital purposes. No other
deduction is required for these investments in the capital instruments of financial
subsidiaries.
(6) Advanced approaches institutions only that exit parallel run.1 Include the amount of
expected credit loss that exceeds the institution’s eligible credit reserves.
An advanced approaches institution that has exited parallel run, has adopted Accounting
Standards Update No. 2016-13 (ASU 2016-13) on credit losses, and has elected to apply
the 3-year CECL transition provision (3-year CECL electing advanced approaches
institution) should decrease its eligible credit reserves by the applicable eligible credit
reserves transitional amount in accordance with section 301 of the regulatory capital
rules. Specifically, a 3-year CECL electing advanced approaches institution should
reduce the amount of its eligible credit reserves by 75 percent of its eligible credit
reserves transitional amount during the first year of the transition period, 50 percent of its
eligible credit reserves transitional amount during the second year of the transition period,
and 25 percent of its eligible credit reserves transitional amount during the third year of
the transition period.

1 An advanced approaches institution that exits the parallel run is an advanced approaches institution that has

* In this case (assuming that publicly traded equity exposures do not qualify for a 100 percent risk
weight under section 52(b)(3)(iii) of the regulatory capital rules), $50 x 300 percent risk weight for

operating loss carrybacks may not exceed the amount that the institution could
reasonably expect to have refunded by its parent holding company.
All institutions must apply a 250 percent risk-weight to DTAs arising from

Institutions that make the AOCI opt-out election in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 3.a –
Defined benefit postretirement plans:
If the reporting institution sponsors a single-employer defined benefit postretirement plan,
such as a pension plan or health care plan, accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 715,
Compensation-Retirement Benefits (formerly FASB Statement No. 158, “Employers’
Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans”), the institution
should adjust total assets for leverage ratio purposes for any amounts included in
Schedule RC, item 26.b, “Accumulated other comprehensive income” (AOCI), affecting
assets as a result of the initial and subsequent application of ASC Topic 715. The
adjustment also should take into account subsequent amortization of these amounts from
AOCI into earnings. The intent of the adjustment reported in this item (together with the
amount reported in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 9.d) is to reverse the effects on AOCI of
applying ASC Topic 715 for regulatory capital purposes. Specifically, assets recognized or
derecognized as an adjustment to AOCI as part of the incremental effect of applying
ASC Topic 715 should be reported as an adjustment to total assets for leverage ratio
purposes. For example, the derecognition of an asset recorded as an offset to AOCI as part
of the initial incremental effect of applying ASC Topic 715 should be added back to total
assets for leverage ratio purposes by reporting the amount as a negative number in this item.
As another example, the portion of a benefit plan surplus asset that is included in
Schedule RC, item 26.b, as an increase to AOCI and in total assets should be deducted from
total assets for leverage ratio purposes by reporting the amount as a positive number in this
item.
Institutions that do not make the AOCI opt-out election and all advanced approaches
institutions – Available-for-sale debt securities:
Available-for-sale debt securities are reflected at amortized cost when calculating average
total consolidated assets for Schedule RC-K, item 9. Therefore, include in this item as a
deduction from (addition to) assets for leverage ratio purposes the amount needed to adjust
the quarterly average for available-for-sale debt securities included in Schedule RC-K, item 9,
from an average based on amortized cost to an average based on fair value. If the deferred
tax effects of any net unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale debt securities were
excluded from the determination of average total consolidated assets for Schedule RC-K,
item 9, also include in this item as a deduction from (addition to) assets for leverage ratio
purposes the quarterly average amount necessary to reverse the effect of this exclusion on
the quarterly average amount of net deferred tax assets included in Schedule RC-K, item 9.
Financial Subsidiaries:
If a financial subsidiary is not consolidated into the bank for purposes of the bank’s balance
sheet, include in this item 29 as a deduction from the bank’s average total assets (as
reported in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 27) the quarterly average for the bank's ownership
interest in the financial subsidiary accounted for under the equity method of accounting that is
included in the bank’s average total assets reported in Schedule RC-K, item 9.

If a financial subsidiary is consolidated into the bank for purposes of the bank’s balance

reported in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 27) the quarterly average of the assets of the
subsidiary that have been included in the bank’s consolidated average total assets reported
in Schedule RC-K, item 9; minus any deductions from common equity tier 1 capital and
additional tier 1 capital attributable to the financial subsidiary that have been included in
Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 28; and plus the quarterly average of bank assets representing
claims on the financial subsidiary, other than the bank’s ownership interest in the subsidiary,
that were eliminated in consolidation. Because the bank’s claims on the subsidiary were
eliminated in consolidation, these bank assets were not included in the bank’s consolidated
average total assets reported in Schedule RC-K, item 9.

For an institution that has not adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update No.
2016-13 (ASU 2016-13), which governs the accounting for credit losses and
introduces the current expected credit losses methodology (CECL), the
institution’s ALLL for regulatory capital purposes equals Schedule RC, item 4.c,
“Allowance for loan and lease losses”; less any allocated transfer risk reserve
included in Schedule RC, item 4.c; plus Schedule RC-G, item 3, “Allowance for
credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures.”
For an institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13, the institution’s AACL for
regulatory capital purposes equals Schedule RI-B, Part II, item 7, columns A

An institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13 and has elected to apply the 3-year
CECL transition provision (3-year CECL electing institution) should decrease its
AACL by the applicable AACL transitional amount in accordance with section 301
of the regulatory capital rules. Specifically, a 3-year CECL electing institution
should reduce the amount of its AACL by 75 percent of its AACL transitional
amount during the first year of the transition period, 50 percent of its AACL
transitional amount during the second year of the transition period, and 25
percent of its AACL transitional amount during the third year of the transition
period (see Table 1 in the instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 2).
An institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13 and has elected to apply the 5-year
2020 CECL transition provision (5-year CECL electing institution) should
decrease its AACL by the applicable modified AACL transitional amount in
accordance with section 301 of the regulatory capital rules. Specifically, a 5-year
CECL electing institution should reduce the amount of its AACL by 100 percent
of its modified AACL transitional amount during the first and second years of the
transition period, 75 percent of its modified AACL transitional amount during the
third year of the transition period, 50 percent of its modified AACL transitional
amount during the fourth year of the transition period, and 25 percent of its

In calculating the risk-weighted assets base for this purpose, an institution would
not include items that are deducted from capital under section 22(a). However,
an institution would include risk-weighted asset amounts of items deducted from
capital under sections 22(c) through (f) of the regulatory capital rule. While
amounts deducted from capital under sections 22(c) through (f) are included in
the risk-weighted assets base for the ALLL or AACL calculation, as applicable,
such amounts are excluded from standardized total risk-weighted assets used in
the denominator of the risk-based capital ratios.
The amount, if any, by which an institution’s ALLL or AACL, as applicable, for
regulatory capital purposes exceeds 1.25 percent of the institution’s riskweighted assets base for the ALLL or AACL calculation (as reported in Schedule

has full discretion to permanently or temporarily suspend such payments without
triggering an event of default; or
(5) Any similar transaction that the institution’s primary federal regulator determines to be in
substance a distribution of capital.
As defined in section 2 of the regulatory capital rules, “discretionary bonus payment” means a
payment made to an executive officer of an institution, where:
(1) The institution retains discretion as to whether to make, and the amount of, the payment
until the payment is awarded to the executive officer;
(2) The amount paid is determined by the institution without prior promise to, or agreement

Community Bank Leverage Ratio Framework
A qualifying community banking organization that decides to opt into the community bank leverage ratio
(CBLR) framework (i.e., has a CBLR framework election in effect as of the quarter-end report date, as reported
in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 31.a) should not complete Schedule RC-R, Part II. All other institutions should
complete Schedule RC-R, Part II. A qualifying institution can opt out of the community bank leverage ratio
framework by completing Schedule RC-R, Parts I and II, excluding Schedule RC-R, Part I, items 32 through
38.c. Please refer to the General Instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part I, for information on the reporting
requirements that apply when an institution ceases to meet the applicable leverage ratio requirement under
the CBLR framework or fails to meet any of the other CBLR qualifying criteria and is no longer in the grace
period.
General Instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part II.
The instructions for Schedule RC-R, Part II, items 1 through 22, provide general directions for the
allocation of bank balance sheet assets, credit equivalent amounts of derivatives and off-balance sheet
items, and unsettled transactions to the risk-weight categories in columns C through Q (and, for items 1
through 10 only, to the adjustments to the totals in Schedule RC-R, Part II, column A, to be reported in
column B). In general, the aggregate amount allocated to each risk-weight category is then multiplied by
the risk weight associated with that category. The resulting risk-weighted values from each of the risk
categories are added together, and generally this sum is the bank's total risk-weighted assets, which
comprises the denominator of the risk-based capital ratios.
These instructions should provide sufficient guidance for most banks for risk weighting their balance
sheet assets and credit equivalent amounts. However, these instructions do not address every type of
exposure. Banks should review the regulatory capital rules of their primary federal supervisory authority
for the complete description of capital requirements.

Cash and balances due from depository institutions that must be risk weighted according
to the Country Risk Classification (CRC) methodology
o In column C–0% risk weight; column G–20% risk weight; column H–50% risk weight;
column I–100% risk weight; column J–150% risk weight. Assign these exposures to
risk weight categories based on the CRC methodology described above in the
General Instructions for Part II. Include:
o The amounts reported in Schedule RC, items 1.a and 1.b, composed of balances
due from foreign banks; and
o Any balances due from foreign central banks.

item 2, "Balances due from depository institutions in the U.S.," which treats pass-through
reserve balances held by a bank's correspondent as balances due from a depository
institution as opposed to balances due from the Federal Reserve.
If the reporting bank is a participant in an excess balance account at a Federal Reserve
Bank, report in column C the bank’s balance in this account.
If the reporting bank accounts for any holdings of certificates of deposit (CDs) like availablefor-sale debt securities that do not qualify as securitization exposures, report in column A the
fair value of such CDs. If the bank has made the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
opt-out election in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 3.a, include in column B the difference
between the fair value and amortized cost of these CDs. When fair value exceeds amortized
cost, report the difference as a positive number in column B. When amortized cost exceeds
fair value, report the difference as a negative number (i.e., with a minus (-) sign) in column B.
Risk weight the amortized cost of these CDs in columns C through J, as appropriate.

Securities. Do not include securities that qualify as securitization exposures in items 2.a
and 2.b below; instead, report these securities in Schedule RC-R, Part II, items 9.a and 9.b.
In general, under the regulatory capital rules, securitizations are exposures that are
“tranched” for credit risk. Refer to the definitions of securitization, traditional securitization,
synthetic securitization and tranche in §.2 of the regulatory capital rules.

2.a

Held-to-maturity securities. Report in column A the amount of held-to-maturity (HTM)
securities reported in Schedule RC, item 2.a, excluding those HTM securities that qualify as
securitization exposures as defined in §.2 of the regulatory capital rules.
The amount of those HTM securities reported in Schedule RC, item 2.a, that qualify as
securitization exposures are to be reported in Schedule RC-R, Part II, item 9.a, column A.
The sum of Schedule RC-R, Part II, items 2.a and 9.a, column A, must equal Schedule RC,
item 2.a.
Exposure amount to be used for purposes of risk weighting – bank cannot or has not made
the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI) opt-out election in Schedule RC-R,
Part I, item 3.a:
For a security classified as HTM where the bank cannot or has not made the AOCI opt-out
election (i.e., most AOCI is included in regulatory capital), the exposure amount to be risk
weighted by the bank is the carrying value of the security, which is the value of the asset
reported (a) on the balance sheet of the bank determined in accordance with GAAP and
(b) in Schedule RC-R, Part II, item 2.a, column A.
Exposure amount to be used for purposes of risk weighting – bank has made the AOCI
opt-out election in Schedule RC-R, Part I, item 3.a:
For a security classified as HTM where the bank has made the AOCI opt-out election (i.e.,
most AOCI is not included in regulatory capital), the exposure amount to be risk weighted by
the bank is the carrying value of the security reported (a) on the balance sheet of the bank
and (b) in Schedule RC-R, Part II, item 2.a, column A, less any unrealized gain on the
exposure or plus any unrealized loss on the exposure included in AOCI. For purposes of
determining the exposure amount of an HTM security, an unrealized gain (loss), if any, on
such a security that is included in AOCI is (i) the unamortized balance of the unrealized gain
(loss) that existed at the date of transfer of a debt security transferred into the
held-to-maturity category from the available-for-sale category, or (ii) the unaccreted portion of
other-than-temporary impairment losses on an HTM debt security that was not recognized in

allowances for credit losses on purchased credit-deteriorated assets” for HTM debt
securities that relates to purchased credit-deteriorated HTM securities reported in
column A of this item.
For example, if an institution reports $100 in Schedule RI-B, Part II, item 7, column B,
and $10 in Schedule RC-R, Part II, Memorandum item 4.b, the institution would report
($90) in this column B.

Residential mortgage exposures. Report in column A the carrying value of loans held for
sale (HFS) reported in Schedule RC, item 4.a, that meet the definition of a residential
mortgage exposure or a statutory multifamily mortgage1 in §.2 of the regulatory capital rules.
Include in column A the carrying value of:
• HFS loans secured by first or subsequent liens on 1-4 family residential properties
(excluding those that qualify as securitization exposures) that are reported in
Schedule RC-C, Part I, items 1.c.(1), 1.c.(2)(a), and 1.c.(2)(b), and
• HFS loans secured by first or subsequent liens on multifamily residential properties with
an original and outstanding amount of $1 million or less (excluding those that qualify as
securitization exposures) that are reported in Schedule RC-C, Part I, item 1.d,
as these HFS loans would meet the regulatory capital rules’ definition of residential mortgage

Statutory multifamily mortgage means a loan secured by a multifamily residential property that meets the
requirements under Section 618(b)(1) of the Resolution Trust Corporation Refinancing, Restructuring, and
Improvement Act of 1991, and that meets the following criteria:
(1) The loan is made in accordance with prudent underwriting standards;
(2) The principal amount of the loan at origination does not exceed 80 percent of the value of the property (or 75
percent of the value of the property if the loan is based on an interest rate that changes over the term of the loan)
where the value of the property is the lower of the acquisition cost of the property or the appraised (or, if
appropriate, evaluated) value of the property;
(3) All principal and interest payments on the loan must have been made on a timely basis in accordance with the
terms of the loan for at least one year prior to applying a 50 percent risk weight to the loan, or in the case where
an existing owner is refinancing a loan on the property, all principal and interest payments on the loan being
refinanced must have been made on a timely basis in accordance with the terms of the loan for at least one year
prior to applying a 50 percent risk weight to the loan;
(4) Amortization of principal and interest on the loan must occur over a period of not more than 30 years and the
minimum original maturity for repayment of principal must not be less than 7 years;
(5) Annual net operating income (before making any payment on the loan) generated by the property securing the
loan during its most recent fiscal year must not be less than 120 percent of the loan's current annual debt service
(or 115 percent of current annual debt service if the loan is based on an interest rate that changes over the term
of the loan) or, in the case of a cooperative or other not-for-profit housing project, the property must generate
sufficient cash flow to provide comparable protection to the institution; and
(6) The loan is not more than 90 days past due, or on nonaccrual.
A loan that meets the requirements of Section 618(b)(1) of the Resolution Trust Corporation Refinancing,
Restructuring, and Improvement Act of 1991 is a loan:
(i) secured by a first lien on a residence consisting of more than 4 dwelling units;
(ii) under which
(I) the rate of interest does not change over the term of the loan, (b) the principal obligation does not exceed 80
percent of the appraised value of the property, and (c) the ratio of annual net operating income generated by
the property (before payment of any debt service on the loan) to annual debt service on the loan is not less
than 120 percent; or
(II) the rate of interest changes over the term of the loan, (b) the principal obligation does not exceed 75 percent
of the appraised value of the property, and (c) the ratio of annual net operating income generated by the
property (before payment of any debt service on the loan) to annual debt service on the loan is not less than
115 percent;

of loans held for sale (HFS) reported in Schedule RC, item 4.a, that are high volatility
commercial real estate (HVCRE) exposures,1 including HVCRE exposures that are 90 days
or more past due or in nonaccrual status.

HVCRE exposure means:
(1) A credit facility secured by land or improved real property that, prior to being reclassified by the institution as a
non-HVCRE exposure pursuant to paragraph (6) of this definition—
(i) Primarily finances, has financed, or refinances the acquisition, development, or construction of real property;
(ii) Has the purpose of providing financing to acquire, develop, or improve such real property into incomeproducing real property; and
(iii) Is dependent upon future income or sales proceeds from, or refinancing of, such real property for the
repayment of such credit facility.
(2) An HVCRE exposure does not include a credit facility financing—
(i) The acquisition, development, or construction of properties that are—
(A) One- to four-family residential properties. Credit facilities that do not finance the construction of one- to
four-family residential structures, but instead solely finance improvements such as the laying of sewers,
water pipes, and similar improvements to land, do not qualify for the one- to four-family residential
properties exclusion;
(B) Real property that would qualify as an investment in community development; or
(C) Agricultural land;
(ii) The acquisition or refinance of existing income-producing real property secured by a mortgage on such
property, if the cash flow being generated by the real property is sufficient to support the debt service and
expenses of the real property, in accordance with the institution's applicable loan underwriting criteria for
permanent financings;
(iii) Improvements to existing income-producing improved real property secured by a mortgage on such
property, if the cash flow being generated by the real property is sufficient to support the debt service and
expenses of the real property, in accordance with the institution's applicable loan underwriting criteria for
permanent financings; or
(iv) Commercial real property projects in which—
(A) The loan-to-value ratio is less than or equal to the applicable maximum supervisory loan-to-value ratio
as determined by an institution’s primary federal regulator;
(B) The borrower has contributed capital of at least 15 percent of the real property's appraised, `as
completed' value to the project in the form of—
(1) Cash;
(2) Unencumbered readily marketable assets;
(3) Paid development expenses out-of-pocket; or
(4) Contributed real property or improvements; and
(C) The borrower contributed the minimum amount of capital described under paragraph (2)(iv)(B) of this
definition before the institution advances funds (other than the advance of a nominal sum made in order
to secure the institution's lien against the real property) under the credit facility, and such minimum
amount of capital contributed by the borrower is contractually required to remain in the project until the
HVCRE exposure has been reclassified by the institution as a non-HVCRE exposure under
paragraph (6) of this definition;
(3) An HVCRE exposure does not include any loan made prior to January 1, 2015;
(4) An HVCRE exposure does not include a credit facility reclassified as a non-HVCRE exposure under
paragraph (6) of this definition.
(5) Value of contributed real property: For the purposes of this HVCRE exposure definition, the value of any real
property contributed by a borrower as a capital contribution is the appraised value of the property as determined
under standards prescribed pursuant to section 1110 of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (12 U.S.C. 3339), in connection with the extension of the credit facility or loan to such borrower.
(6) Reclassification as a non-HVCRE exposure: For purposes of this HVCRE exposure definition and with respect to a
credit facility and an institution, an institution may reclassify an HVCRE exposure as a non-HVCRE exposure upon—
(i) The substantial completion of the development or construction of the real property being financed by the
credit facility; and
(ii) Cash flow being generated by the real property being sufficient to support the debt service and expenses of
the real property, in accordance with the institution's applicable loan underwriting criteria for permanent
financings.
(7) For purposes of this definition, an institution is not required to reclassify a credit facility that was originated on or
after January 1, 2015, and prior to April 1, 2020.

An institution that has adopted the current expected credit losses methodology (CECL)
should report as a negative number in column B:
o The portion of Schedule RI-B, Part II, Memorandum item 6, “Allowance for credit
losses on other financial assets measured at amortized cost,” that relates to assets
reported in column A of this item, less
o The portion of Schedule RC-R, Part II, Memorandum item 4.c, “Amount of allowances
for credit losses on purchased credit-deteriorated assets” for other financial assets
measured at amortized cost that relates to assets reported in column A of this item.
For example, if an institution reports $100 in Schedule RI-B, Part II, Memorandum item 6
(and the entire amount relates to assets reported in this item 8, column A), and $10 in
Schedule RC-R, Part II, Memorandum item 4.c (and the entire amount relates to assets
reported in this item 8, column A), the institution would report ($90) in this column B.
An institution that has adopted CECL and has elected to apply the 3-year CECL transition
provision (3-year CECL electing institution) should report as a positive number in column
B the amount by which it has decreased its DTAs arising from temporary differences for
its applicable DTA transitional amount in accordance with section 301 of the regulatory
capital rules. Specifically, a 3-year CECL electing institution reduces its temporary
difference DTAs by 75 percent of its DTA transitional amount during the first year of the
transition period, 50 percent of its DTA transitional amount during the second year of the
transition period, and 25 percent of its DTA transitional amount during the third year of
the transition period.
An institution that has adopted CECL and has elected to apply the 5-year 2020 CECL
transition provision (5-year CECL electing institution) should report as a positive number
in column B the amount by which it has decreased its DTAs arising from temporary
differences for its applicable DTA transitional amount in accordance with section 301 of
the regulatory capital rules. Specifically, a 5-year CECL electing institution reduces its
temporary difference DTAs by 100 percent of its DTA transitional amount during the first
and second years of the transition period, 75 percent of its DTA transitional amount
during the third year of the transition period, 50 percent of its DTA transitional amount
during the fourth year of the transition period, and 25 percent of its DTA transitional

GLOSSARY

Allowance for Credit Losses (cont.):
ASC Subtopic 326-20 requires an institution to measure estimated expected credit losses over the
contractual term of its financial assets, considering expected prepayments. Renewals, extensions, and
modifications are excluded from the contractual term of a financial asset for purposes of estimating the
ACL unless there is a reasonable expectation of executing a troubled debt restructuring or the renewal
and extension options are part of the original or modified contract and are not unconditionally
cancellable by the institution. If such renewal or extension options are present, an institution must
evaluate the likelihood of a borrower exercising those options when determining the contractual term.
In estimating the net amount expected to be collected on financial assets measured at amortized cost,
an institution should consider the effects of past events, current conditions, and reasonable and
supportable forecasts on the collectibility of the institution’s financial assets. Under ASC Subtopic
326-20, an institution is required to use relevant forward-looking information and expectations drawn
from reasonable and supportable forecasts when estimating expected credit losses.
Expected recoveries, prior to collection, are a component of management’s estimate of the net amount
expected to be collected for a financial asset. Expected recoveries of amounts previously charged off
or expected to be charged off that are included in ACLs may not exceed the aggregate amounts
previously charged off or expected to be charged off. All assumptions related to expected recoveries
should be appropriately documented and supported. When estimating expected recoveries,
management may conclude that amounts previously charged off are not collectible.
Changes in the ACL – Additions to, or reductions of, the ACL to adjust its level to management’s
current estimate of expected credit losses are to be made through charges or credits to the "provision
for credit losses on financial assets" (provision) in item 4 of Schedule RI, Income Statement, except for
changes to adjust the level of the ACL for off-balance-sheet credit exposures. When available
information confirms that specific financial assets measured at amortized cost, or portions thereof, are
uncollectible, these amounts should be promptly charged off against the related ACL in the period in
which the financial assets are deemed uncollectible. Under no circumstances can expected credit
losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost be charged directly to "Retained earnings" after
the initial adoption of ASC Topic 326, for which the change from the incurred loss to the current
expected credit losses methodology is required to be recorded through a cumulative-effect adjustment
to retained earnings. This cumulative-effect adjustment is reported in Schedule RI-A, item 2,
“Cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles and corrections of material accounting errors,”
and disclosed in Schedule RI-E, item 4.a, “Effect of adoption of current expected credit losses
methodology – ASU 2016-13.”
Recoveries on financial assets measured at amortized cost represent collections on amounts that were
previously charged off against the related ACL. Recoveries shall be credited to the ACL, provided that
the total amount credited to the ACL as recoveries on a financial asset (which may include amounts
representing principal, interest, and fees) is limited to the amount previously charged off against the
ACL on that financial asset. Any amounts collected in excess of this limit should generally be
recognized as noninterest income upon collection.
Charge-Offs and Establishment of a New Amortized Cost Basis – When an institution makes a full or
partial charge-off of a financial asset measured at amortized cost that is deemed uncollectible, the
institution establishes a new cost basis for that financial asset. Consequently, once a new cost basis
has been established for a financial asset through a charge-off, this amortized cost basis may not be
directly "written up" at a later date. Reversing the previous charge-off and "re-booking" the charged-off
asset after the institution concludes that the prospects for recovering the charge-off have improved,
regardless of whether the institution assigns a new account number to the asset or the borrower signs
a new note, is not an acceptable accounting practice. Nevertheless, as stated above, management’s
estimate of the net amount expected to be collected for a financial asset, as reflected in the related
ACL, considers expected recoveries.

Allowance for Credit Losses (cont.):
If losses charged off against an ACL exceed the amount of the ACL, a provision expense sufficient to
restore the ACL to an appropriate level must be charged to a provision for credit losses on the income
statement during the reporting period in which the charge-off is recorded. An institution shall not
increase an ACL by transferring an amount from retained earnings or any segregation thereof to the
ACL.
Collateral-Dependent Financial Assets – A collateral-dependent financial asset is a financial asset for
which repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral
when the borrower, based on management’s assessment, is experiencing financial difficulty as of the
reporting date.
For purposes of these reports, the ACL for a collateral-dependent loan is measured using the fair value
of collateral, regardless of whether foreclosure is probable. This application of this requirement for
purposes of these reports is limited to collateral-dependent loans; it does not apply to other financial
assets such as held-to-maturity debt securities that are collateral dependent.
When estimating the ACL for a collateral-dependent loan, the fair value of collateral should be adjusted
to consider estimated costs to sell if repayment or satisfaction of the loan depends on the sale of the
collateral. ACL adjustments for estimated costs to sell are not appropriate when the repayment of a
collateral-dependent loan is expected from the operation of the collateral.
The fair value of collateral securing a collateral-dependent loan may change over time. If the fair value
of the collateral as of the ACL evaluation date has decreased since the previous ACL evaluation date,
the ACL should be increased to reflect the additional decrease in the fair value of the collateral.
Likewise, if the fair value of the collateral has increased as of the ACL evaluation date, the increase in
the fair value of the collateral is reflected through a reduction in the ACL. Any negative ACL that
results is capped at the amount previously charged off. In general, any portion of the amortized cost
basis in excess of the fair value of collateral less estimated costs to sell, if applicable, that can be
identified as uncollectible should be promptly charged off against the ACL.
Financial Assets with Collateral Maintenance Agreements – Institutions may have financial assets that
are secured by collateral (such as debt securities) and are subject to collateral maintenance
agreements requiring the borrower to continuously replenish the amount of collateral securing the
asset. If the fair value of the collateral declines, the borrower is required to provide additional collateral
as specified by the agreement.
ASC Topic 326 includes a practical expedient for financial assets with collateral maintenance
agreements where the borrower is required to provide collateral greater than or equal to the amortized
cost basis of the asset and is expected to continuously replenish the collateral. In those cases, the
institution may elect the collateral maintenance practical expedient and measure expected credit losses
for these qualifying assets based on the fair value of the collateral. If the fair value of the collateral is
greater than the amortized cost basis of the financial asset and the institution expects the borrower to
replenish collateral as needed, the institution may record an ACL of zero for the financial asset when
the collateral maintenance practical expedient is applied. Similarly, if the fair value of the collateral is
less than the amortized cost basis of the financial asset and the institution expects the borrower to
replenish collateral as needed, the ACL is limited to the difference between the fair value of the
collateral and the amortized cost basis of the asset as of the reporting date when applying the collateral
maintenance practical expedient.
Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Exposures – Each institution should also estimate, as a separate liability
account, expected credit losses for off-balance-sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance,
over the contractual period during which the institution is exposed to credit risk. The estimate of
expected credit losses should take into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur as well as

Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; and
(C) any liability of an insured depository institution that arises under an annuity contract, the
income of which is tax deferred under section 72 of title 26 [the Internal Revenue Code].
(II) Transaction-nontransaction deposit distinction – Deposits defined in Regulation D as transaction
accounts include demand deposits, NOW accounts, telephone and preauthorized transfer
accounts, and savings deposits. However, for Call Report purposes, savings deposits are
classified as a type of nontransaction account.
For institutions that have suspended the six transfer limit on an account that meets the definition
of a savings deposit (as defined below in the Nontransaction accounts category), please refer to
the “Treatment of Accounts where Reporting Institutions Have Suspended Enforcement of the Six
Transfer Limit per Regulation D” section below for further details on reporting savings deposits.
(1) Transaction accounts – For Call Report purposes, with the exceptions noted below, a
"transaction account," is a deposit or account from which the depositor or account holder is
permitted to make transfers or withdrawals by negotiable or transferable instruments,
payment orders of withdrawal, telephone transfers, or other similar devices for the purpose of
making payments or transfers to third persons or others or from which the depositor may
make third party payments at an automated teller machine (ATM), a remote service unit
(RSU), or another electronic device, including by debit card.
Excluded from transaction accounts are savings deposits (both money market deposit
accounts (MMDAs) and other savings deposits) as defined below in the nontransaction
account category.
For Call Report purposes, transaction accounts consist of the following types of deposits: (a)
demand deposits; (b) NOW accounts; (c) ATS accounts; and (d) telephone and
preauthorized transfer accounts, all as defined below. Interest that is paid by the crediting of
transaction accounts is also included in transaction accounts.
(a) Demand deposits are deposits that are payable immediately on demand, or that are
issued with an original maturity or required notice period of less than seven days, or that
represent funds for which the depository institution does not reserve the right to require
at least seven days' written notice of an intended withdrawal. Demand deposits include
any matured time deposits without automatic renewal provisions, unless the deposit
agreement provides for the funds to be transferred at maturity to another type of
account. Effective July 21, 2011, demand deposits may be interest-bearing or
noninterest-bearing. Demand deposits do not include: (i) money market deposit
accounts (MMDAs) or (ii) NOW accounts, as defined below in this entry.
(b) NOW accounts are interest-bearing deposits (i) on which the depository institution has
reserved the right to require at least seven days' written notice prior to withdrawal or
transfer of any funds in the account and (ii) that can be withdrawn or transferred to third
parties by issuance of a negotiable or transferable instrument.

instrumentalities; state governments; county and municipal governments and their
political subdivisions; the District of Columbia; the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico,
American Samoa, Guam, and any territory or possession of the United States and
their political subdivisions.
Also included are the balances of all NOW accounts of certain other nonprofit
organizations that may not fall within the above description but that had established
NOW accounts with the reporting institution prior to September 1, 1981.
NOTE: There are no regulatory requirements with respect to minimum balances to be
maintained in a NOW account or to the amount of interest that may be paid on a NOW
account.
(c) ATS accounts are deposits or accounts of individuals or sole proprietorships on which
the depository institution has reserved the right to require at least seven days' written
notice prior to withdrawal or transfer of any funds in the account and from which,
pursuant to written agreement arranged in advance between the reporting institution and
the depositor, withdrawals may be made automatically through payment to the
depository institution itself or through transfer of credit to a demand deposit or other
account in order to cover checks or drafts drawn upon the institution or to maintain a
specified balance in, or to make periodic transfers to, such other accounts.
(d) Telephone or preauthorized transfer accounts consist of deposits or accounts, other
than savings deposits, (1) in which the entire beneficial interest is held by a party eligible
to hold a NOW account, and (2) on which the reporting institution has reserved the right
to require at least seven days' written notice prior to withdrawal or transfer of any funds
in the account.
A "preauthorized transfer" includes any arrangement by the reporting institution to pay a
third party from the account of a depositor (1) upon written or oral instruction (including
an order received through an automated clearing house (ACH)), or (2) at a
predetermined time or on a fixed schedule.

The balance of deposits or accounts that otherwise meet the definition of time
deposits, but from which payments may be made to third parties by means of a
debit card, an automated teller machine, remote service unit or other electronic

(2) Nontransaction accounts – All deposits that are not transaction accounts (as defined above)
are nontransaction accounts. Nontransaction accounts include: (a) savings deposits
((i) money market deposit accounts (MMDAs) and (ii) other savings deposits) and (b) time
deposits ((i) time certificates of deposit and (ii) time deposits, open account). Regulation D
no longer distinguishes between money market deposit accounts (MMDAs) and other
savings deposits. However, these two types of accounts are defined below for purposes of
these reports, which call for separate data on each in Schedule RC-E, (Part I,) Memorandum
items 2.a.(1) and (2).
NOTE: Regulation D classifies savings deposits as a type of transaction account. However,
for Call Report purposes, savings deposits are classified as a type of nontransaction account.
(a) Savings deposits are deposits with respect to which the depositor is not required by the
deposit contract but may at any time be required by the depository institution to give
written notice of an intended withdrawal not less than seven days before withdrawal is
made, and that is not payable on a specified date or at the expiration of a specified time
after the date of deposit.
The term savings deposit also means a deposit or account, such as an account
commonly known as a passbook savings account, a statement savings account, or a
money market deposit account (MMDA), that otherwise meets the requirements of the
preceding paragraph.
Further, for a savings deposit account, no minimum balance is required by regulation,
there is no regulatory limitation on the amount of interest that may be paid, and no
minimum maturity is required (although depository institutions must reserve the right to
require at least seven days' written notice prior to withdrawal as stipulated above for a
savings deposit).
Any depository institution may place restrictions and requirements on savings deposits
in addition to those stipulated above. In the case of such further restrictions, the
account would still be reported as a savings deposit.

Treatment of Accounts where Reporting Institutions Have Suspended Enforcement of
the Six Transfer Limit per Regulation D
Where the reporting institution has suspended the enforcement of the six transfer limit
rule on an account that meets the definition of a savings deposit, the reporting institution
is required to report such deposits as a savings account or a transaction account based
on an assessment of the characteristics of the account as indicated below:
1)

If the reporting institution does not retain the reservation of right to require at least seven
days' written notice before an intended withdrawal, report the account as a demand
deposit (and as a "transaction account").

2)

If the reporting institution does retain the reservation of right to require at least seven

Regulation D no longer distinguishes between money market deposit accounts
(MMDAs) and other savings deposits. However, these two types of accounts are
defined as follows for purposes of these reports, which call for separate data on each.
(1) Money market deposit accounts (MMDAs) are deposits or accounts that meet the
above definition of a savings deposit and that permit unlimited transfers to be made
by check, draft, debit card or similar order made by the depositor and payable to
third parties.
(2) Other savings deposits are deposits or accounts that meet the above definition of a
savings deposit but that permit no transfers by check, draft, debit card, or similar
order made by the depositor and payable to third parties. Other savings deposits
are commonly known as passbook savings or statement savings accounts.
Examples illustrating distinctions between MMDAs and other savings deposits for
purposes of these reports are provided at the end of this Glossary entry.

(b) Time deposits are deposits that the depositor does not have a right, and is not
permitted, to make withdrawals from within six days after the date of deposit unless the
deposit is subject to an early withdrawal penalty of at least seven days' simple interest
on amounts withdrawn within the first six days after deposit. A time deposit from which
partial early withdrawals are permitted must impose additional early withdrawal penalties
of at least seven days' simple interest on amounts withdrawn within six days after each
partial withdrawal. If such additional early withdrawal penalties are not imposed, the
account ceases to be a time deposit. The account may become a savings deposit if it
meets the requirements for a savings deposit; otherwise it becomes a demand deposit.
NOTE: The above prescribed penalties are the minimum required by Federal Reserve
Regulation D. Institutions may choose to require penalties for early withdrawal in
excess of the regulatory minimums.

The option to report as a NOW account (and a transaction account) is only applicable to institutions that offer NOW
accounts and the account offered subsequent to the suspension of the enforcement of the six-transfer limit is
equivalent to the reporting institution’s NOW account offering and is held by eligible depositors as authorized by
federal law. Institutions that do not offer NOW accounts should continue to report such deposits as a savings deposit
(and as a nontransaction account).

Deposits (cont.):
Time deposits take two forms:
(i)

Time certificates of deposit (including rollover certificates of deposit) are deposits
evidenced by a negotiable or nonnegotiable instrument, or a deposit in book entry
form evidenced by a receipt or similar acknowledgement issued by the bank, that
provides, on its face, that the amount of such deposit is payable to the bearer, to
any specified person, or to the order of a specified person, as follows:
(1) on a certain date not less than seven days after the date of deposit,
(2) at the expiration of a specified period not less than seven days after the date
of the deposit, or
(3) upon written notice to the bank which is to be given not less than seven days
before the date of withdrawal.

(ii)

Time deposits, open account are deposits (other than time certificates of deposit) for
which there is in force a written contract with the depositor that neither the whole
nor any part of such deposit may be withdrawn prior to:
(1) the date of maturity which shall be not less than seven days after the date of
the deposit, or
(2) the expiration of a specified period of written notice of not less than seven
days.
These deposits include those club accounts, such as Christmas club and vacation
club accounts, that are made under written contracts that provide that no withdrawal
shall be made until a certain number of periodic deposits has been made during a
period of not less than three months, even though some of the deposits are made
within six days of the end of such period.
Time deposits do not include the following categories of liabilities even if they have an
original maturity of seven days or more:
(1) Any deposit or account that otherwise meets the definition of a time deposit but that
allows withdrawals within the first six days after deposit and that does not require an
early withdrawal penalty of at least seven days' simple interest on amounts
withdrawn within those first six days. Such deposits or accounts that meet the
definition of a savings deposit shall be reported as savings deposits; otherwise they
shall be reported as demand deposits.
(2) The remaining balance of a time deposit if a partial early withdrawal is made and the
remaining balance is not subject to additional early withdrawal penalties of at least
seven days' simple interest on amounts withdrawn within six days after each partial
withdrawal. Such time deposits that meet the definition of a savings deposit shall be
reported as savings deposits; otherwise they shall be reported as demand deposits.

Reporting of Retail Sweep Arrangements Affecting Transaction and Nontransaction Accounts –
When a depository institution establishes a retail sweep program, the depository institution
must ensure that its customer account agreements provide for the existence of two distinct
accounts rather than a single account and the funds are actually transferred between these two
accounts as described in the customer contract.

GLOSSARY

Deposits (cont.):
There are two key criteria for retail sweep programs:
(1) A depository institution must establish by agreement with its customer two legally
separate accounts;
(2) The swept funds must actually be moved between the customer’s two accounts on the
official books and records of the depository institution as of the close of the business on
the day(s) on which the depository institution intends to report the funds
A retail sweep program may not exist solely in records or on systems that do not constitute
official books and records of the depository institution and that are not used for any purpose
other than generating its Report of Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash
(FR 2900) for submission to the Federal Reserve.
Further, for purposes of the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income, if both of
the criteria above are met, a bank must report the transaction account and nontransaction
account components of a retail sweep program separately when it reports its quarter-end
deposit information in Schedules RC, RC-E, and RC-O; its quarterly averages in
Schedule RC-K; and its interest expense (if any) in Schedule RI. Thus, when reporting
quarterly averages in Schedule RC-K, a bank should include the amounts held in the
transaction account (if interest-bearing) and the nontransaction savings account components
of retail sweep arrangements each day or each week in the appropriate separate items for
average deposits. In addition, if the bank pays interest on accounts involved in retail sweep
arrangements, the interest expense reported in Schedule RI should be allocated between
the transaction account and the nontransaction (savings) account based on the balances in
these accounts during the reporting period.
(III) Interest-bearing-noninterest-bearing deposit distinction –
(a) Interest-bearing deposit accounts consist of deposit accounts on which the issuing depository
institution makes any payment to or for the account of any depositor as compensation for the
use of funds constituting a deposit. Such compensation may be in the form of cash,
merchandise, or property or as a credit to an account. An institution’s absorption of
expenses incident to providing a normal banking function or its forbearance from charging a
fee in connection with such a service is not considered a payment of interest.
Deposits with a zero percent interest rate that are issued on a discount basis are to be
treated as interest-bearing. Deposit accounts on which the interest rate is periodically
adjusted in response to changes in market interest rates and other factors should be reported
as interest-bearing even if the rate has been reduced to zero, provided the interest rate on
these accounts can be increased as market conditions change.
(b) Noninterest-bearing deposit accounts consist of deposit accounts on which the issuing
depository institution makes no payment to or for the account of any depositor as
compensation for the use of funds constituting a deposit. An institution’s absorption of
expenses incident to providing a normal banking function or its forbearance from charging a
fee in connection with such a service is not considered a payment of interest.
Noninterest-bearing deposit accounts include (i) matured time deposits that are not
automatically renewable (unless the deposit agreement provides for the funds to be
transferred at maturity to another type of account) and (ii) deposits with a zero percent stated
interest rate that are issued at face value.

Foreclosed Assets (cont.):
When applying ASC Subtopic 610-20 and Topic 606, an institution will need to exercise judgment in
determining whether a contract (within the meaning of Topic 606) exists for the sale or transfer of
OREO, whether the institution has performed its obligations identified in the contract, and what the
transaction price is for calculation of the amount of gain or loss. These standards apply to all sales or
transfers of real estate by institutions, but greater judgment will generally be required for seller-financed
sales of OREO.
Under ASC Subtopic 610-20, when an institution does not have a controlling financial interest in the
buying legal entity or the OREO buyer is not a legal entity, the institution’s first step in assessing
whether it can derecognize an OREO asset and recognize revenue upon the sale or transfer of the
OREO is to determine whether a contract exists under the provisions of Topic 606. In the context of an
OREO sale or transfer, in order for an institution’s transaction with the party acquiring the property to
be a contract under ASC Topic 606, it must meet all the following criteria:
(a) The parties to the contract have approved the contract and are committed to perform their
respective obligations;
(b) The institution can identify each party’s rights regarding the OREO to be transferred;
(c) The institution can identify the payment terms for the OREO to be transferred;
(d) The contract has commercial substance (that is, the risk, timing, or amount of the institution’s
future cash flows is expected to change as a result of the contract); and
(e) It is probable that the institution will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it will be
entitled in exchange for OREO that will be transferred to the buyer, i.e. the transaction price. In
evaluating whether collectability of an amount of consideration is probable, an institution shall
consider only the buyer’s ability and intention to pay that amount of consideration when it is due.
These five criteria require careful analysis for seller-financed sales of OREO. In particular, criteria (a)
and (e) may require significant judgment. When determining whether the buyer is committed to
perform its obligations under criterion (a) and collectability under criterion (e), a selling institution
should consider all facts and circumstances related to the buyer’s ability and intent to pay the
transaction price, which may include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

•

Amount of cash paid as a down payment;
Existence of recourse provisions;
Credit standing of the buyer;
Age and location of the property;
Cash flow from the property;
Payments by the buyer to third parties;
Other amounts paid to the selling institution, including current or future contingent payments;
Transfer of noncustomary consideration (i.e., consideration other than cash and a note receivable);
Other types of financing involved with the property or transaction;
Financing terms of the loan (reasonable and customary terms, amortization, any graduated
payments, any balloon payment);
Underwriting inconsistent with the institution’s underwriting policies for loans not involving OREO
sales; and
Future subordination of the selling institution’s receivable.

Although ASC Subtopic 610-20 does not include the prescriptive minimum down payment
requirements in ASC Subtopic 360-20, the amount and character of a buyer’s equity (typically the down
payment) and recourse provisions remain important factors when evaluating criteria (a) and (e).
Specifically, the buyer’s initial equity in the property immediately after the sale is an important
consideration in determining whether a buyer is committed to perform its obligations under criterion (a).
Furthermore, the buyer’s initial equity is a factor to consider under criterion (e) when evaluating the
collectability of consideration that the institution is entitled to receive from the buyer.

Foreclosed Assets (cont.):
In applying the revenue recognition principles in ASC Topic 606, all relevant factors are to be weighed
collectively in evaluating whether the five contract criteria have been met as the first step in
determining the appropriate accounting for a seller-financed OREO transaction. However, the
agencies consider the down payment and financing terms to be of particular importance when making
this determination. A transaction with an insignificant down payment and nonrecourse financing
generally would not meet the definition of a contract (within the meaning of Topic 606) unless there is
considerable support from other factors. The need for support from other factors recedes in
importance for a transaction with a substantial down payment and recourse financing to a buyer with
adequate capacity to repay.
If the five contract criteria in ASC Topic 606 have not been met, the institution generally may not
derecognize the OREO asset or recognize revenue (gain or loss) as an accounting sale has not
occurred. The institution should continue to assess the transaction to determine whether the contract
criteria have been met in a later period. Until that time, any consideration the institution has received
from the buyer should generally be recorded as a deposit liability. In addition, if the transaction price is
less than the carrying amount of the OREO, the institution should consider whether this indicates a
decline in fair value of the OREO that should be recognized as a valuation allowance, or an increase in
an existing valuation allowance, and through a charge to expense as discussed above in this Glossary
entry.
If an institution determines the contract criteria in ASC Topic 606 have been met, it must then
determine whether it has satisfied its performance obligations as identified in the contract by
transferring control of the asset to the buyer. Control of an asset refers to the ability to direct the use
of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset. As it relates to an institution’s
sale of OREO, ASC Topic 606 includes the following indicators of the transfer of control:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
(e)

The institution has a present right to payment for the asset;
The buyer has legal title to the asset;
The institution has transferred physical possession of the asset;
The buyer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset; and
The buyer has accepted the asset.

For seller-financed sales of OREO, the transfer of control generally occurs on the closing date of the
sale when the institution obtains the right to receive payment for the property and transfers legal title to
the buyer. However, an institution must consider all relevant facts and circumstances to determine
whether control of the OREO has transferred, which may include the selling institution’s:
•
•
•
•

Involvement with the property following the transaction;
Obligation to repurchase the property in the future;
Obligation to provide support for the property following the sale transaction; and
Retention of an equity interest in the property.

In particular, if an institution has the obligation or right to repurchase the OREO, the buyer does not
obtain control of the OREO because the buyer is limited in its ability to direct the use of, and obtain
substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset even though it may have physical possession.
In this situation, an institution should account for the contract as either (1) a lease in accordance with
ASC Topic 840, Leases, or ASC Topic 842, Leases, as applicable, or (2) a financing arrangement in
accordance with ASC Topic 606. In addition, situations may exist where the selling institution has legal
title to the OREO, while the borrower whose property was foreclosed upon under the original loan still
has redemption rights to reclaim the property in the future. If such redemption rights exist, the selling
institution may not be able to transfer control to the buyer of the OREO and recognize revenue until the
redemption period expires.

Loss Contingencies: A loss contingency is an existing condition, situation, or set of circumstances that
involves uncertainty as to possible loss that will be resolved when one or more future events occur or
fail to occur. An estimated loss (or expense) from a loss contingency (for example, pending or
threatened litigation) must be accrued by a charge to income if it is probable that an asset has been
impaired or a liability incurred as of the report date and the amount of the loss can be reasonably
estimated.
A contingency that might result in a gain, for example, the filing of an insurance claim, shall not be
recognized as income prior to realization.
For further information, see ASC Subtopic 450-20, Contingencies – Loss Contingencies.
Majority-Owned Subsidiary: See "Subsidiaries."
Mandatory Convertible Debt: Mandatory convertible debt is a subordinated note or debenture with a
maturity of 12 years or less that obligates the holder to take the common or perpetual preferred stock
of the issuer in lieu of cash for repayment of principal by a date at or before the maturity date of the
debt instrument (so-called "equity contract notes").
Mergers: See "Business Combinations."
Money Market Deposit Account (MMDA): See "Deposits."
Nonaccrual Status: This entry covers, for purposes of these reports, the criteria for placing assets in
nonaccrual status (presented in the general rule below) and related exceptions, the reversal of
previously accrued but uncollected interest, the treatment of cash payments received on nonaccrual
assets and the criteria for cash basis income recognition, the restoration of a nonaccrual asset to
accrual status, and the treatment of multiple extensions of credit to one borrower.
General rule – Banks shall not accrue interest, amortize deferred net loan fees or costs, or accrete
discount on any asset (1) which is maintained on a cash basis because of deterioration in the financial
condition of the borrower, (2) for which payment in full of principal or interest is not expected, or (3)
upon which principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more unless the asset is
both well secured and in the process of collection.
An asset is "well secured" if it is secured (1) by collateral in the form of liens on or pledges of real or
personal property, including securities, that have a realizable value sufficient to discharge the debt
(including accrued interest) in full, or (2) by the guarantee of a financially responsible party. An asset is
"in the process of collection" if collection of the asset is proceeding in due course either (1) through
legal action, including judgment enforcement procedures, or, (2) in appropriate circumstances, through
collection efforts not involving legal action which are reasonably expected to result in repayment of the
debt or in its restoration to a current status in the near future.
For purposes of applying the third test for nonaccrual status listed above, the date on which an asset
reaches nonaccrual status is determined by its contractual terms. If the principal or interest on an
asset becomes due and unpaid for 90 days or more on a date that falls between report dates, the asset
should be placed in nonaccrual status as of the date it becomes 90 days past due and it should remain
in nonaccrual status until it meets the criteria for restoration to accrual status described below.
Any state statute, regulation, or rule that imposes more stringent standards for nonaccrual of interest
takes precedence over this instruction.

Nonaccrual Status (cont.):
Exceptions to the general rule – In the following situations, an asset need not be placed in nonaccrual
status:
(1) The asset upon which principal or interest is due and unpaid for 90 days or more is a consumer
loan (as defined for Schedule RC-C, Part I, item 6, "Loans to individuals for household, family, and
other personal expenditures") or a loan secured by a 1-to-4 family residential property (as defined
for Schedule RC-C, Part I, item 1.c, Loans "Secured by 1-4 family residential properties").
Nevertheless, such loans should be subject to other alternative methods of evaluation to assure
that the bank's net income is not materially overstated. However, to the extent that the bank has
elected to carry such a loan in nonaccrual status on its books, the loan must be reported as
nonaccrual in Schedule RC-N, column C.
(2) For an institution that has not adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13
(ASU 2016-13), which governs the accounting for credit losses, the criteria for accrual of income
under the interest method specified in ASC Subtopic 310-30, Receivables – Loans and Debt
Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, are met for a purchased credit-impaired (PCI)
loan, pool of loans, or debt security accounted for in accordance with that Subtopic, regardless of
whether the loan, the loans in the pool, or debt security had been maintained in nonaccrual status
by its seller. (For PCI loans with common risk characteristics that are aggregated and accounted
for as a pool, the determination of nonaccrual or accrual status should be made at the pool level,
not at the individual loan level.) For further information, see the Glossary entry for "purchased
credit-impaired loans and debt securities."
(3) For an institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13, the following criteria are met for a purchased
credit-deteriorated (PCD) asset, including a PCD asset that was previously a PCI asset or part of a
pool of PCI loans, that would otherwise be required to be placed in nonaccrual status under the
general rule:
(a) The institution reasonably estimates the timing and amounts of cash flows expected to be
collected, and
(b) The institution did not acquire the asset primarily for the rewards of ownership of the underlying
collateral, such as use of collateral in operations of the institution or improving the collateral for
resale.
When a PCD asset that meets the criteria above is not placed in nonaccrual status, the asset should
be subject to other alternative methods of evaluation to ensure that the institution’s net income is not
materially overstated. If an institution is required or has elected to carry a PCD asset in nonaccrual
status, the asset must be reported as a nonaccrual asset at its amortized cost basis in Schedule RC-N,
column C. (For PCD loans for which the institution has made a policy election to maintain previously
existing pools of PCI loans upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the determination of nonaccrual or accrual
status should be made at the pool level, not the individual asset level.) For further information, see the
Glossary entry for “purchased credit-deteriorated assets.”
Treatment of previously accrued interest – The reversal of previously accrued but uncollected interest
applicable to any asset placed in nonaccrual status should be handled in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. Acceptable accounting treatment includes a reversal of all previously
accrued but uncollected interest applicable to assets placed in a nonaccrual status against appropriate
income and balance sheet accounts.
For example, for institutions that have not adopted ASC Topic 326, one acceptable method of
accounting for such uncollected interest on a loan placed in nonaccrual status is (1) to reverse all of the
unpaid interest by crediting the "accrued interest receivable" account on the balance sheet, (2) to
reverse the uncollected interest that has been accrued during the calendar year-to-date by debiting the
appropriate "interest and fee income on loans" account on the income statement, and (3) to reverse
any uncollected interest that had been accrued during previous calendar years by debiting the
"allowance for loan and lease losses" account on the balance sheet. The use of this method presumes
that bank management's additions to the allowance through charges to the "provision for loan and
lease losses" on the income statement have been based on an evaluation of the collectability of the

Nonaccrual Status (cont.):
loan and lease portfolios and the "accrued interest receivable" account.
Institutions that have adopted ASC Topic 326 should refer to the Glossary entry for “Accrued Interest
Receivable” for information on the treatment of previously accrued interest.
Treatment of cash payments and criteria for the cash basis recognition of income – When doubt exists
as to the collectibility of the remaining recorded investment in a nonaccrual asset (or the amortized cost
basis of a nonaccrual asset, if the institution has adopted ASC Topic 326), any payments received
must be applied to reduce the recorded investment in, or the amortized cost basis of, the asset, as
applicable, to the extent necessary to eliminate such doubt. Placing an asset in nonaccrual status
does not, in and of itself, require a charge-off, in whole or in part, of the asset's recorded investment or
amortized cost basis, as applicable. However, any identified losses must be charged off.
While an asset is in nonaccrual status, some or all of the cash interest payments received may be
treated as interest income on a cash basis as long as the remaining recorded investment in, or the
amortized cost basis of, the asset, as applicable, (i.e., after charge-off of identified losses, if any) is
deemed to be fully collectible.3 A bank's determination as to the ultimate collectibility of the asset's
remaining recorded investment, or amortized cost basis, as applicable, must be supported by a current,
well documented credit evaluation of the borrower's financial condition and prospects for repayment,
including consideration of the borrower's historical repayment performance and other relevant factors.
When recognition of interest income on a cash basis is appropriate, it should be handled in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. One acceptable accounting practice involves allocating
contractual interest payments among interest income, reduction of the recorded investment in, or the
amortized cost basis of, the asset, as applicable, and recovery of prior charge-offs. If this method is
used, the amount of income that is recognized would be equal to that which would have been accrued
on the asset's remaining recorded investment at the contractual rate. A bank may also choose to
account for the contractual interest in its entirety either as income, reduction of the recorded investment
in, or the amortized cost basis of, the asset, as applicable, or recovery of prior charge-offs, depending
on the condition of the asset, consistent with its accounting policies for other financial reporting
purposes.

3

An asset in nonaccrual status that is subject to the cost recovery method required by ASC Subtopic 325-40,
Investments-Other – Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, should follow that method for reporting
purposes. In addition, when a PCI loan, pool of loans, or debt security that is accounted for in accordance with ASC
Subtopic 310-30 (or when a PCD asset that is accounted for in accordance with ASC Subtopic 326-20, if the
institution has adopted ASC Topic 326) has been placed in nonaccrual status, the cost recovery method should be
used, when appropriate.

Nonaccrual Status (cont.):
Restoration to accrual status – As a general rule, a nonaccrual asset may be restored to accrual status
when (1) none of its principal and interest is due and unpaid, and the bank expects repayment of the
remaining contractual principal and interest, or (2) when it otherwise becomes well secured and in the
process of collection. If any interest payments received while the asset was in nonaccrual status were
applied to reduce the recorded investment in, or the amortized cost basis of, the asset, as applicable,
as discussed in the preceding section of this entry, the application of these payments to the asset's
recorded investment or amortized cost basis, as applicable, should not be reversed (and interest
income should not be credited) when the asset is returned to accrual status.
For purposes of meeting the first test, the bank must have received repayment of the past due principal
and interest unless:
(1) The asset has been formally restructured and qualifies for accrual status as discussed below;
(2) For an institution that has not adopted ASU 2016-13, the asset is a PCI loan, pool of loans, or debt
security accounted for in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-30 and it meets the criteria for accrual
of income under the interest method specified therein;
(3) For an institution that has adopted ASU 2016-13, the asset is a PCD asset and it meets the two
criteria specified in the third exception to the general rule discussed above; or
(4) The borrower has resumed paying the full amount of the scheduled contractual interest and
principal payments on a loan that is past due and in nonaccrual status, even though the loan has not
been brought fully current, and the following two criteria are met. These criteria are, first, that all
principal and interest amounts contractually due (including arrearages) are reasonably assured of
repayment within a reasonable period and, second, that there is a sustained period of repayment
performance (generally a minimum of six months) by the borrower in accordance with the
contractual terms involving payments of cash or cash equivalents. A loan that meets these two
criteria may be restored to accrual status, but must continue to be disclosed as past due in
Schedule RC-N until it has been brought fully current or until it later must be placed in nonaccrual
status.
A loan or other debt instrument that has been formally restructured in a troubled debt restructuring so
as to be reasonably assured of repayment (of principal and interest) and of performance according to
its modified terms need not be maintained in nonaccrual status, provided the restructuring and any
charge-off taken on the asset are supported by a current, well documented credit evaluation of the
borrower's financial condition and prospects for repayment under the revised terms. Otherwise, the
restructured asset must remain in nonaccrual status. The evaluation must include consideration of the
borrower's sustained historical repayment performance for a reasonable period prior to the date on
which the loan or other debt instrument is returned to accrual status. A sustained period of repayment
performance generally would be a minimum of six months and would involve payments of cash or cash
equivalents. (In returning the asset to accrual status, sustained historical repayment performance for a
reasonable time prior to the restructuring may be taken into account.) Such a restructuring must
improve the collectability of the loan or other debt instrument in accordance with a reasonable
repayment schedule and does not relieve the bank from the responsibility to promptly charge off all
identified losses.
A troubled debt restructuring may involve a multiple note structure in which, for example, a troubled
loan is restructured into two notes. The first or "A" note represents the portion of the original loan
principal amount that is expected to be fully collected along with contractual interest. The second or
"B" note represents the portion of the original loan that has been charged off and, because it is not
reflected as an asset and is unlikely to be collected, could be viewed as a contingent receivable. For a
troubled debt restructuring of a collateral-dependent loan involving a multiple note structure, the
amount of the “A” note should be determined using the fair value of the collateral. The "A" note may
be returned to accrual status provided the conditions in the preceding paragraph are met and:
(1) there is economic substance to the restructuring and it qualifies as a troubled debt restructuring
under generally accepted accounting principles, (2) the portion of the original loan represented by the
"B" note has been charged off before or at the time of the restructuring, and (3) the "A" note is
reasonably assured of repayment and of performance in accordance with the modified terms.

Until the restructured asset is restored to accrual status, if ever, cash payments received must be
treated in accordance with the criteria stated above in the preceding section of this entry. In addition,
after a formal restructuring, if a restructured asset that has been returned to accrual status later meets
the criteria for placement in nonaccrual status as a result of past due status based on its modified
terms or for any other reasons, the asset must be placed in nonaccrual status.
For further information on formally restructured assets, see the Glossary entry for "Troubled Debt
Restructurings."
Treatment of multiple extensions of credit to one borrower – As a general principle, nonaccrual status
for an asset should be determined based on an assessment of the individual asset's collectability and
payment ability and performance. Thus, when one loan to a borrower is placed in nonaccrual status, a
bank does not automatically have to place all other extensions of credit to that borrower in nonaccrual
status. When a bank has multiple loans or other extensions of credit outstanding to a single borrower,
and one loan meets the criteria for nonaccrual status, the bank should evaluate its other extensions of
credit to that borrower to determine whether one or more of these other assets should also be placed in
nonaccrual status.

Offsetting: Offsetting is the reporting of assets and liabilities on a net basis in the balance sheet. Banks
are permitted to offset assets and liabilities recognized in the Consolidated Report of Condition when a
"right of setoff" exists. Under ASC Subtopic 210-20, Balance Sheet – Offsetting, a right of setoff exists
when all of the following conditions are met:

(1) Each of two parties owes the other determinable amounts. Thus, only bilateral netting is
permitted.

Private Company: A private company is a business entity that is not a public business entity. For further
information, see the Glossary entry for “Public Business Entity.”
Public Business Entity: Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-12, “Definition of a Public Business
Entity,” added this term to the Master Glossary in the Accounting Standards Codification. The
definition states that a business entity, such as bank or savings association, that meets any one of five
specified criteria is a public business entity for reporting purposes under U.S. GAAP. This also applies
for Call Report purposes. In contrast, a private company is a business entity that is not a public
business entity. An institution that is a public business entity is not permitted to apply private company
accounting alternatives when preparing its Call Report.
As defined in the ASC Master Glossary, a business entity is a public business entity if it meets any one
of the following criteria:
•

•
•
•

•

It is required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to file or furnish financial
statements, or does file or furnish financial statements (including voluntary filers), with the SEC
(including other entities whose financial statements or financial information are required to be or
are included in a filing).
It is required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act), as amended, or rules or regulations
promulgated under the Act, to file or furnish financial statements with a regulatory agency other
than the SEC (such as one of the federal banking agencies).
It is required to file or furnish financial statements with a foreign or domestic regulatory agency in
preparation for the sale of or for purposes of issuing securities that are not subject to contractual
restrictions on transfer.
It has issued debt or equity securities that are traded, listed, or quoted on an exchange or an overthe-counter market, which includes an interdealer quotation or trading system for securities not
listed on an exchange (for example, OTC Markets Group, Inc., including the OTC Pink Markets, or
the OTC Bulletin Board).
It has one or more securities that are not subject to contractual restrictions on transfer, and it is
required by law, contract, or regulation to prepare U.S. GAAP financial statements (including
footnotes) and make them publicly available on a periodic basis (for example, interim or annual
periods). An entity must meet both of these conditions to meet this criterion.

The Master Glossary also explains that if an entity meets the definition of a public business entity solely
because its financial statements or financial information is included in another entity’s filing with the
SEC, the entity is only a public business entity for purposes of financial statements that are filed or
furnished with the SEC, but not for other reporting purposes or for Call Report purposes.
If a bank or savings association does not meet any one of the first four criteria, it would need to
consider whether it meets both of the conditions included in the fifth criterion to determine whether it
would be a public business entity. With respect to the first condition under the fifth criterion, a stock
institution must determine whether it has a class of securities not subject to contractual restrictions on
transfer, which the FASB has stated means that the securities are not subject to management
preapproval on resale. A contractual management preapproval requirement that lacks substance
would raise questions about whether the stock institution meets this first condition.
If an institution is a wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company, an implicit contractual restriction on
transfer is presumed to exist on the institution’s common stock; therefore, if the institution has issued
no other debt or equity securities, the institution would not meet the first condition of the fifth criterion.
A mutual institution that has issued no debt securities also does not meet the first condition of the fifth
criterion. In all other scenarios (e.g., a closely-held bank or a Subchapter S bank that is not a wholly
owned subsidiary of a holding company), an institution should assess whether contractual restrictions
on transfer exist on its securities based on its individual facts and circumstances.

Public Business Entity (cont.):
With respect to the second condition under the fifth criterion, an insured depository institution with
$500 million or more in total assets as of the beginning of its fiscal year is required by Section 36 of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Part 363 of the FDIC’s regulations, “Annual Independent Audits and
Reporting Requirements,” to prepare and make publicly available audited annual U.S. GAAP financial
statements. In certain circumstances, an insured depository institution with $500 million or more in
total assets that is a subsidiary of a holding company may choose to satisfy this annual financial
statement requirement at a holding company level rather than at the institution level. An insured
depository institution of this size that satisfies the financial statement requirement of Section 36 and
Part 363 at either the institution level or the holding company level would meet the fifth criterion’s
second condition.
Purchase Acquisition: See "Business Combinations."
Purchased Credit-Deteriorated Assets: This Glossary entry applies to institutions that have adopted
ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments–Credit Losses. Institutions that have not adopted ASC
Topic 326 should continue to refer to the Glossary entry for “Purchased Credit-Impaired Loans and
Debt Securities.”
Purchased credit-deteriorated (PCD) assets are acquired financial assets that, at acquisition, have
experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination, as determined by
an acquirer’s assessment.
In accordance with ASC Topic 326, institutions are required to estimate and record an allowance for
credit losses (ACL) for PCD assets at the time of purchase. This acquisition date ACL is added to the
purchase price of the financial assets rather than recording these losses through provisions for credit
losses. This establishes the initial amortized cost basis of the PCD assets. An institution may use
either a discounted or an undiscounted cash flow method at acquisition to determine this ACL.
Subsequent ACL measurements for acquired financial assets with more-than-insignificant credit
deterioration since origination are to be measured under ASC Topic 326 as with (1) originated financial
assets and (2) purchased financial assets that do not have a more-than-insignificant deterioration in
credit quality at acquisition.
Institutions that measure expected credit losses for PCD assets on a pool basis shall continue to
evaluate whether financial assets in the pool continue to share similar risk characteristics with the other
financial assets in the pool. If there have been changes in credit risk, borrower circumstances,
recognition of a charge-off, or cash collections of interest applied to principal while the asset is in
nonaccrual status, an institution may determine that either the financial asset has similar risk
characteristics with another pool or the credit loss measurement should be performed on an individual
financial asset basis because the financial asset does not share risk characteristics with other financial
assets. Institutions that measure the ACL on a collective basis shall allocate the ACL and any
noncredit discount or premium to the individual PCD assets unless the institution elected the transition
option to account for existing PCI loan pools as PCD pools upon adoption of ASC Topic 326.
Any difference between the unpaid principal balance of the PCD asset and the amortized cost basis of
the asset as of the acquisition date is the noncredit discount or premium. Provided the asset remains
in accrual status, the noncredit discount or premium recorded at acquisition is accreted into interest
income over the remaining life of the PCD asset on a level-yield basis. In contrast, regardless of
whether a PCD asset is in nonaccrual or accrual status, an institution is not permitted to accrete the
credit-related discount embedded in the purchase price of the asset that is attributable to the acquirer’s
assessment of expected credit losses as of the date of acquisition (i.e., the contractual cash flows the
acquirer did not expect to collect at acquisition). In addition, interest income should no longer be
recognized on a PCD asset to the extent that the net investment in the asset would increase to an
amount greater than the payoff amount.
ASC Subtopic 310-10, Receivables – Overall, does not prohibit an institution from placing a PCD asset
in nonaccrual status. Because a PCD asset is an acquired financial asset that, at acquisition, has

Purchased Credit-Deteriorated Assets (cont.):
experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination, as determined by
an acquiring institution’s assessment, the acquiring institution must determine upon acquisition whether
it is appropriate to place the PCD asset in accrual status, including accreting the noncredit discount or
premium.
For purposes of these reports, if an institution has a PCD asset, including a PCD asset that was
previously a PCI asset or part of a pool of PCI loans, that would otherwise be required to be placed in
nonaccrual status (see the Glossary entry for “nonaccrual status”), the institution may elect to accrue
interest income on the PCD asset and not report the PCD asset as being in nonaccrual status if the
following criteria are met:
(a) The institution reasonably estimates the timing and amounts of cash flows expected to be collected,
and
(b) The institution did not acquire the asset primarily for the rewards of ownership of the underlying
collateral, such as use of collateral in operations of the institution or improving the collateral for
resale.
When a PCD asset that meets the criteria above is not placed in nonaccrual status, the asset should
be subject to other alternative methods of evaluation to ensure that the institution’s net income is not
materially overstated. If an institution is required or has elected to carry a PCD asset in nonaccrual
status, the asset must be reported as a nonaccrual asset at its amortized cost basis (fair value for a
PCD available-for-sale debt security) in Schedule RC-N, column C.
For PCD assets for which the institution has made a policy election to maintain previously existing
pools of PCI loans upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the determination of nonaccrual or accrual status
should be made at the pool level, not the individual asset level.
For a PCD asset that is not reported in nonaccrual status, the delinquency status of the PCD asset
should be determined in accordance with its contractual repayment terms for purposes of reporting the
amortized cost basis of the asset (fair value for a PCD available-for-sale debt security) as past due in
Schedule RC-N, column A or B, as appropriate. If the PCD asset that is not reported in nonaccrual
status consists of a pool of loans that was previously PCI, but is being maintained as a unit of account
after the adoption of ASU 2016-13, delinquency status should be determined individually for each loan
in the pool in accordance with the individual loan’s contractual repayment terms.
For further information on the reporting of interest income on PCD assets, institutions should refer to
the Glossary entry for “Nonaccrual Status” and ASC Subtopic 310-10.
Deferred Tax Asset Considerations – An institution’s provisions for credit losses that increase the
amount of the ACL also increase the amount of the deductible temporary difference associated with the
