Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
This report on Form 10-Q, the documents that it incorporates by reference and the documents into which it may be incorporated by reference may contain, and from time to time Bank of America Corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, the Corporation) and its management may make, certain statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements often use words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “targets,” “intends,” “plans,” “goal” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “would” and “could.” The forward-looking statements made represent the current expectations, plans or forecasts of the Corporation regarding the Corporation's future results and revenues, and future business and economic conditions more generally, including statements concerning: the Federal Reserve's plans to purchase U.S. treasury bonds and agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and sell short-dated securities between October 2011 and June 2012; the expected closing of the Canada consumer card business in the fourth quarter of 2011; the Corporation's intention to exit its consumer card businesses in Europe; the planned schedule and details for implementation and completion of, and the expected impact from, Phase 1 and Phase 2 of Project New BAC, including expected personnel reductions and estimated expense reductions; the potential impact of the European Union (EU) financial relief plan, including on European banks, as well as any other European sovereign bailout proposals; the future favorable effects of the United Kingdom (U.K.) corporate income tax rate reductions and the effect on income tax expense of the possible additional U.K. corporate income tax rate reduction announced by the U.K. Treasury; the transformation of the Corporation's mortgage business, including the Corporation's intention to wind down its correspondent channel; the Corporation's expectation that it will maintain limited commercial paper exposure; the expected normalized levels of credits losses and noninterest expense; recent developments with regard to the agreement to resolve nearly all of the legacy Countrywide-issued first-lien non government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) residential mortgage-backed securitization repurchase exposures (the BNY Mellon Settlement); the impact of and costs associated with each of the agreements with The Bank of New York Mellon (as trustee for certain legacy Countrywide private-label securitization trusts), Assured Guaranty Ltd. and subsidiaries (Assured Guaranty), and each of the government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae (FNMA) and Freddie Mac (FHLMC) (collectively, the GSEs) to resolve bulk representations and warranties claims; the continually evolving behavior of the GSEs, and the Corporation's intention to monitor and update its processes related to these changing GSE behaviors; the adequacy of the liability for the remaining representations and warranties exposure to the GSEs and the future impact to earnings, including the impact on such estimated liability arising from the recent announcement by FNMA regarding mortgage rescissions, cancellations and claim denials; our expectation that mortgage-related assessment and waiver costs will remain elevated as additional loans are delayed in the foreclosure process and as the GSEs assert more aggressive criteria; the expected repurchase claims on the 2004-2008 loan vintages; the Corporation's belief that with the provision recorded in connection with the BNY Mellon Settlement, and the additional representations and warranties provisions recorded in the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation has provided for a substantial portion of its non-GSE representations and warranties exposure; the potential assertion and impact of additional claims not addressed by the BNY Mellon Settlement or any of the prior agreements entered into between the Corporation and the GSEs, monoline insurers and other investors; representations and warranties liabilities (also commonly referred to as reserves), and the estimated range of possible loss, expenses and repurchase claims and resolution of those claims, and any related servicing, securities, fraud, indemnity or other claims; the Corporation's intention to vigorously contest any requests for repurchase for which it concludes that a valid basis does not exist; future impact of complying with the terms of the consent orders with federal bank regulators regarding the foreclosure process and potential civil monetary penalties that may be levied in connection therewith; the impact of delays in connection with the Corporation's temporary halt of foreclosure proceedings in late 2010; the potential impact of changes in the Corporation's procedures and controls, as well as governmental, regulatory and judicial actions, on the timing of resuming foreclosure proceedings and foreclosure sales and on the collection of certain fees and expenses; negotiations to settle or any other resolution of various state and federal investigations into alleged irregularities in the practices of residential mortgage originators and servicers, including the Corporation; the net recovery projections for credit default swaps with monoline financial guarantors; the impact on economic conditions and on the Corporation arising from any further changes to the credit rating or perceived creditworthiness of instruments issued, insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government, or of institutions, agencies or instrumentalities directly linked to the U.S. government; future payment protection insurance (PPI) claims in the U.K.; future risk-weighted assets and any mitigation efforts to reduce risk-weighted assets; credit trends and conditions, including credit losses, credit reserves, the allowance for loan and lease losses, charge-offs, delinquency, collection and bankruptcy trends, and nonperforming asset levels, including expected reductions in the allowance for loan and lease losses; sales and trading revenue; consumer and commercial service charges, including the impact of changes in the Corporation's overdraft policy and the Corporation's ability to mitigate a decline in revenues; liquidity; the Corporation's anticipation that it will continue to reduce its long-term debt as appropriate through 2013; capital levels determined by or established in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and with the requirements of various regulatory agencies, including our ability to comply with any Basel capital requirements endorsed by U.S. regulators without raising additional capital and within any applicable regulatory timelines; the revenue impact of the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009 (the CARD Act); the revenue impact and the impact on the value of our assets and liabilities resulting from, and any mitigation actions taken in response to, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Financial Reform Act), including the impact of the Durbin Amendment, the Volcker Rule, and activity of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau; the risk retention rules and derivatives regulations; the Corporation's intention to comply with certain requirements relating to fraud prevention in debit card transactions pursuant to the final rule issued by the Federal Reserve
3
under the Durbin Amendment; the Corporation's ability to substitute or make changes to certain over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts; run-off of loan portfolios; that it is the Corporation's objective to maintain high-quality credit ratings; the expected impacts of certain privately-negotiated exchange transactions, including allowing the retirement of certain long-term junior subordinated debt issued to the trust companies, increasing Tier 1 common capital and reducing dividends paid on preferred stock and interest expense on certain long-term junior subordinated debt, increasing interest expense associated with newly issued senior notes and being accretive to earnings per common share and slightly dilutive to earnings per share; the estimated range of possible loss and the impact of various legal proceedings discussed in “Litigation and Regulatory Matters” in Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements; the number of delayed foreclosure sales and the resulting financial impact and other similar matters; and other matters relating to the Corporation and the securities that it may offer from time to time. The foregoing is not an exclusive list of all forward-looking statements the Corporation makes. These statements are not guarantees of future results or performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict and often are beyond the Corporation's control. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the Corporation's forward-looking statements.
You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should consider the following uncertainties and risks, as well as the risks and uncertainties more fully discussed elsewhere in this report, under Item 1A. “Risk Factors”

; the possibility that objections to the approval of the BNY Mellon Settlement, including objections by parties that have already filed notices of intent to object or motions to intervene, will delay or prevent receipt of final court approval; whether the conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement will be satisfied, including the receipt of final court approval and private letter rulings from the IRS and other tax rulings and opinions; the Corporation and certain of its affiliates' ability to comply with the servicing and documentation obligations under the BNY Mellon Settlement; the potential assertion and impact of additional claims not addressed by the BNY Mellon Settlement or any of the prior agreements entered into between the Corporation and the GSEs, monoline insurers and other investors; the accuracy and variability of estimates and assumptions in determining the expected value of the loss-sharing reinsurance arrangement relating to the agreement with Assured Guaranty and the total cost of the agreement to the Corporation; the Corporation's resolution of certain representations and warranties obligations with the GSEs and our ability to resolve the GSEs' remaining claims; the Corporation's ability to resolve its representations and warranties obligations, and any related servicing, securities, fraud, indemnity or other claims with monolines, and private-label investors and other investors, including those monolines and investors from whom

The economic and financial environment for banking was unsettled in the third quarter. Financial market uncertainty surrounding the U.S. debt ceiling debate in Washington, D.C., the Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC (S&P) downgrade of the U.S. government's credit rating, the European financial crisis, and continued soft economic growth in the U.S. resulted in concerns about a double-dip recession. Following economic weakness in the first half of 2011, U.S. retail sales and real consumption rose at a modest pace in the third quarter. Employment gains were modest, and the unemployment rate remained at 9.1 percent during the quarter. Slower growth in wages and salaries, and higher inflation contributed to subdued gains in real disposable personal income, while sharp declines in global stock markets reduced household net worth and undercut consumer confidence. Recovering vehicle sales, reflecting the easing of supply chain issues related to the Japanese earthquake, provided a boost, while flat-to-lower energy costs also added some relief. The housing sector remained soft, with low levels of new and existing home sales and construction. Business investment in equipment and software grew as did U.S. exports. In addition, the public perception of certain financial services firms and practices appeared to fall during the quarter.
During the third quarter, the Federal Reserve took two steps to stimulate the economy. In August, it announced that it expected to keep the federal funds rate target at zero through mid-2013, and as a result, bond yields fell and the yield curve flattened. In September, the Federal Reserve announced a new program designed to lower bond yields and mortgage rates under which the Federal Reserve plans to purchase U.S. treasury bonds and agency MBS, and sell short-dated securities between October 2011 and June 2012.
Global financial markets were in turmoil during the quarter. European policymakers continued their efforts to address the joint problems posed by certain troubled EU countries, in particular Greece, and Europe's fragile banking system. Concerns about the inability of Greece to service its sovereign debt spread to other EU nations, most notably Italy, and as a result sovereign bond yields rose. The European Central Bank purchased the sovereign bonds of Greece, Spain and Italy. Fears of a EU financial crisis adversely affected the U.S. financial system and economic performance, and weighed heavily on global financial markets, particularly impacting financial sector stocks.

China's economy continued to grow in the third quarter, but at a moderating pace, and its inflation rose further. Japan's economy continued to recover from the adverse effects of the natural disaster earlier this year. Among key emerging nations, Brazil, following a period of sustained growth and sharp currency appreciation, incurred a significant economic slowdown and a depreciating currency.

Berkshire Investment
On September 1, 2011, we closed our sale to Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (Berkshire) of 50,000 shares of the Corporation's 6% Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series T (the Series T Preferred Stock) and a warrant to purchase 700 million shares of the Corporation's common stock (the Warrant), for an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 billion in cash. The Warrant is exercisable at the holder's option at any time, in whole or in part until September 1, 2021, at an exercise price of $7.142857 per share which may be settled in cash or by exchanging all or a portion of the Series T Preferred Stock. For additional information about the Series T Preferred Stock and the Warrant, see

.
Divestitures and Asset Dispositions
During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, we continued to sell certain business units and assets as part of our capital management and enterprise wide initiatives. We closed our sale of approximately 13.1 billion common shares of China Construction Bank Corporation (CCB), representing approximately half of our investment in CCB, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $3.6 billion. The sale also generated approximately $3.5 billion of Tier 1 common capital and reduced our risk-weighted assets by $7.3 billion under Basel I. Following the sale, we continue to hold approximately five percent of the outstanding common shares of CCB.
On August 15, 2011, we announced an agreement to sell our consumer card business in Canada and the sale is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2011. Further, we announced that we intend to exit our consumer card business in Europe. In light of these actions, the international consumer card business results were moved to

In October 2011, we announced that we intend to wind down the correspondent mortgage channel by the end of 2011 as part of our ongoing strategy to focus on retail distribution for our consumer mortgage products and services. On February 4, 2011, we announced that we were exiting the reverse mortgage origination business.
Project New BAC
Project New BAC is a two-phase, enterprise-wide initiative to streamline workflows and processes, align businesses and expenses more closely with our overall strategic plan and operating principles, and increase revenues. Phase 1 evaluations focused on the consumer businesses, including
Deposits
,
Card Services
and
CRES,
related support, and technology and operations functions. Phase 2 evaluations will focus on
Global Commercial Banking
,
GBAM
and
GWIM,
related support, and technology and operations functions not subject to evaluation under Phase 1.
Phase 1 evaluations were completed during
September 2011
, and resulted in the recently-announced management reorganization and the clarification of initiatives to align our businesses with specific customer groups. Implementation of Phase 1 recommendations began during the fourth quarter of 2011. Phase 1 has a stated goal of a reduction of approximately 30,000 positions, with natural attrition and the elimination of unfilled positions expected to represent a significant part of the reduction. A stated goal of the full implementation of Phase 1 is to reduce annual expenses by $5 billion per year by 2014, or approximately 18 percent of Phase 1 baseline annual expenses. As implementation of the Phase 1 recommendations continues, reductions in staffing levels in the affected areas will result in some incremental costs including severance.
Phase 2 evaluations began in October 2011 and are expected to continue through April 2012. Reductions in the areas subject to evaluation for Phase 2 have not yet been fully identified; however they are expected to be lower than Phase 1. All aspects of New BAC are expected to be implemented by the end of 2014.
When reductions in employment levels associated with the implementation of Phases 1 and 2 of New BAC are probable of occurring and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, the associated severance costs will be recognized. There were no material expenses related to New BAC recorded in the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
.

Credit Ratings Actions
On September 21, 2011, Moody's downgraded the Corporation's long-term senior unsecured debt rating to Baa1 from A2 and our short-term debt rating to Prime-2 from Prime-1. These long-term credit ratings now incorporate two notches of uplift due to systemic support, down from four notches previously. On the same day, Moody's downgraded the long-term senior debt rating of Bank of America, N.A. (BANA) to A2 from Aa3, and its short-term debt rating was affirmed at Prime-1. These long-term credit ratings now incorporate three notches of uplift due to systemic support, down from five notches previously. The outlook on our and BANA's long-term senior unsecured ratings remained negative. These actions concluded a review for downgrade announced on June 2, 2011.
In addition, the other two major credit ratings agencies, S&P and Fitch, Inc. (Fitch), have indicated they will reevaluate, and could reduce the uplift they include in our ratings for government support, for reasons arising from financial services regulatory reform proposals or legislation. There can be no assurance that S&P and Fitch will refrain from downgrading our credit ratings. While certain potential impacts of a downgrade are contractual and quantifiable, the full scope of consequences of a credit ratings downgrade is inherently uncertain, as it depends upon numerous dynamic, complex and inter-related factors and assumptions, including whether any downgrade of our long-term credit ratings precipitates downgrades to our short-term credit ratings, and assumptions about the behavior of various customers, investors and counterparties whose responses to a downgrade cannot be determined in advance. Under the terms of certain OTC derivative contracts and other trading agreements, certain counterparties to those agreements have required us to provide additional collateral or to terminate these contracts or agreements or provide other remedies.

Private-label Securitization Settlement with the Bank of New York Mellon
Under an order entered by the court in connection with the settlement agreement (the BNY Mellon Settlement) we entered into with The Bank of New York Mellon (BNY Mellon), as trustee (Trustee), potentially interested persons had the opportunity to give notice of intent to object to the settlement (including on the basis that more information was needed) until August 30, 2011. Approximately 44 groups or entities appeared prior to the deadline. Certain of these groups or entities filed notices of intent to object, made motions to intervene, or both, filed notice of intent to object and made motions to intervene. The parties filing motions to intervene include the Attorneys General of the states of New York and Delaware, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). These motions have not yet been ruled on by the court. Certain of the motions to intervene and/or notices of intent to object allege various purported bases for opposition to the settlement, including challenges to the nature of the court proceeding and the lack of an opt-out mechanism, alleged conflicts of interest on the part of the institutional investor group and/or the Trustee, the inadequacy of the settlement amount and the method of allocating the settlement amount among the 525 legacy Countrywide first-lien and five second-lien non-GSE residential mortgage-backed securitization trusts (Covered Trusts), while other motions do not make substantive objections but state that they need more information about the settlement. A number of investors opposed to the settlement removed the proceeding to federal court. On
October 19, 2011
, the federal court denied BNY Mellon's motion to remand the proceeding to state court, and BNY Mellon, as well as investors that have intervened in support of the BNY Mellon Settlement, have petitioned to appeal the denial of this motion.
It is not currently possible to predict how many of the parties who have appeared in the court proceeding will ultimately object to the BNY Mellon Settlement, whether the objections will prevent receipt of final court approval or the ultimate outcome of the court approval process, which can include appeals and could take a substantial period of time. In particular, the conduct of discovery and the resolution of the objections to the settlement, and any appeals could take a substantial period of time and these factors, along with the recent removal of the proceeding to federal court, could materially delay the timing of final court approval. There can be no assurance that final court approval of the BNY Mellon Settlement will be obtained, that all conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement will be satisfied or, if certain conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement permitting withdrawal are met, that we and legacy Countrywide will not determine to withdraw from the BNY Mellon Settlement. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict when the court approval process will be completed.

Department of Justice / Attorney General Matters
Law enforcement authorities in all 50 states, the DOJ and other federal agencies continue to investigate alleged irregularities in the foreclosure practices of residential mortgage servicers, including us. Authorities have publicly stated that the scope of the investigations extends beyond foreclosure documentation practices to mortgage loan origination, loan modification and loss mitigation practices, including compliance with HUD requirements related to Federal Housing Administration (FHA)-insured loans. We continue to cooperate with these investigations and are dedicating significant resources to addressing these issues. We and the other largest mortgage originators and servicers continue to engage in ongoing negotiations regarding these matters with law enforcement authorities and federal agencies. Although certain Attorneys General have recently withdrawn from global settlement negotiations related to these matters, the negotiations remain ongoing and are focused on the amount and form of any settlement payment or commitment and additional settlement terms, including principal forgiveness, servicing standards, enforcement mechanisms and releases. We cannot be certain as to the ultimate outcome that may result from these negotiations or the timing of such outcome. For additional information, see

European Union Sovereign Risks
In 2010, a financial crisis emerged in Europe triggered by high sovereign budget deficits and rising direct and contingent sovereign debt in Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain, which created concerns about the ability of these EU countries to continue to service their sovereign debt obligations. These conditions impacted financial markets and resulted in credit ratings downgrades for, and high and volatile bond yields on, the sovereign debt of many EU countries. Certain European countries continue to experience varying degrees of financial stress, and yields on government-issued bonds in Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain have risen and remain volatile. Despite assistance packages to certain of these countries, the creation of a joint EU-IMF European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) in May 2010 and additional expanded financial assistance to Greece, uncertainty over the outcome of the EU governments' financial support programs and worries about sovereign finances persisted. Market concerns over the direct and indirect exposure of certain European banks and insurers to these EU countries resulted in a widening of credit spreads and increased costs of funding for these financial institutions. On October 27, 2011, representatives of 17 EU countries announced a financial relief plan that involves a write-off of certain sovereign debt by European banks, requirements regarding European bank capital ratios and increases in available rescue funds. Although financial markets initially responded favorably to the announcement of this plan, details remain to be negotiated, and implementation is subject to certain contingencies and risks. For a further discussion of our direct sovereign and non-sovereign exposures in Europe, see

Debt and Capital Exchanges
During the third quarter, global economic uncertainty and volatility continued as described more fully in the
Executive Summary – Third Quarter 2011 Economic and Business Environment
discussion on page
7
. Concerns over these and other issues contributed to a widening of credit spreads for many financial institutions, including the Corporation, resulting in lowering of market values of debt and preferred stock issued by financial institutions. The uncertainty in the market evidenced by, among other things, volatility in credit spread movements, makes it economically advantageous at this time to consider retirement of issued junior subordinated debt and preferred stock. As a result of these matters, we intend to explore the issuance of common stock and senior notes in exchange for shares of preferred stock and, subject to any required amendments to the applicable governing documents, certain trust preferred capital debt securities (Trust Securities) issued by unconsolidated trust companies, in privately negotiated transactions. If we pursue the exchange of Trust Securities, we would immediately use the purchased Trust Securities to retire a corresponding amount of our junior subordinated debt that we previously issued to the unconsolidated trust companies. These transactions would increase Tier 1 common capital and, on an after-tax basis, reduce the combined level of interest expense and dividends paid on the combined junior subordinated debt and preferred stock. The senior notes and common stock would be recorded at fair value at issuance, which is expected to be less than the par and carrying value of the preferred stock and/or junior subordinated debt, which would result in the exchanges being accretive to earnings per common share for the period in which completed. The ultimate impact on earnings per common share is not expected to be significant for periods subsequent to the exchange and will not be known until the level of earnings per common share for the period and the exact combination of exchanged preferred stock and Trust Securities are known. We will not issue more than 400 million shares of common stock or $3 billion in new senior notes in connection with these exchanges.

Net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis
decreased
$2.0 billion
and
$5.4 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The decrease was primarily due to lower consumer loan balances and yields and decreased investment yields, including the acceleration of purchase premium amortization from an increase in modeled prepayment expectations and increased hedge ineffectiveness. Also negatively impacting net interest income was lower trading-related net interest income. Net interest income benefited from ongoing reductions in long-term debt balances and lower rates paid on deposits. The net interest yield on a FTE basis was
2.32
percent and
2.50
percent for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
.
Noninterest income
increased
$3.7 billion
and
decreased
$14.1 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The increase for the
three
-month period was primarily the result of the positive fair value adjustments on structured liabilities due to widening of our credit spreads, the gain on the sale of CCB shares and DVA gains partially offset by adverse market conditions and extreme volatility in the credit markets in 2011 and losses related to other equity and strategic investments. The decrease for the
nine
-month period resulted from the above mentioned representations and warranties provision which is included in mortgage banking income. For additional information on representations and warranties, see
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Representations and Warranties
on page
58
. Other components of the
nine
-month period-over-period change in noninterest income included a
decrease
in service charges due to the impact of overdraft policy changes in conjunction with the implementation of Regulation E and a
decrease
in trading account profits due to strong first quarter 2010.
11
The provision for credit losses
decreased
$2.0 billion
to
$3.4 billion
, and
$12.8 billion
to
$10.5 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The provision for credit losses reflected $1.7 billion and $6.3 billion of reserve reductions for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
as portfolio trends improved across most of the consumer and commercial businesses, particularly the
Card Services
and commercial real estate portfolios. The improvement for the
nine
-month period was offset in part by additions to consumer purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loan portfolio reserves in the first half of 2011.
Noninterest expense
decreased
$9.6 billion
and
$1.5 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The decreases were driven by a
$10.4 billion
goodwill impairment charge recorded during the third quarter of 2010 partially offset, for the
nine
-month period, by the
$2.6 billion
goodwill impairment charge recorded during the second quarter of 2011. In addition, offsetting the decrease for the
nine
-month period was an
increase
in other general operating expense which includes mortgage-related assessments and waivers costs and litigation expense both of which increased significantly compared to the same period in 2010 and an
increase
in personnel costs due to the continued build-out of several businesses and technology.

The following discussion provides an overview of the results of our business segments and
All Other
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. For additional information on these results, see
Business Segment Operations
on page
34
.
Deposits
net income increased for the
three
-month period due to a decrease in noninterest expense partially offset by lower revenue. Revenue declined primarily due to the impact of overdraft policy changes in conjunction with Regulation E that were fully implemented during the third quarter of 2010. Noninterest expense was lower due to a decrease in operating expenses. Net income decreased for the
nine
-month period as the result of a decrease in noninterest income due to the impact of overdraft policy changes in conjunction with Regulation E.
Card Services
net income increased for the
three- and nine-
month periods primarily due to a decrease in noninterest expense as a result of the goodwill impairment charge in 2010 and a decrease in the provision for credit losses. Revenue decreased as a result of a decline in net interest income from lower average loan balances and yields as well as lower noninterest income. Noninterest income declined for the nine-month period due to the impact of the CARD Act and the gain on the sale of our MasterCard position in the second quarter of 2010. Provision for credit losses decreased for the
three- and nine-
month periods reflecting lower delinquencies, improved collection rates and fewer bankruptcy filings as a result of improving economic conditions and lower average loans.
12
CRES
net loss increased for the
three- and nine-
month periods due to a decline in revenue and increased noninterest expense, partially offset by a decline in provision for credit losses. Revenue declined for the
nine
-month period due to an increase in representations and warranties provision, lower core production income and a decrease in insurance income due to the sale of Balboa's lender-placed insurance business in the second quarter of 2011. The revenue decline for the
three
-month period was driven by lower core production income and a decrease in insurance income, partially offset by a decrease in representations and warranties provision. Noninterest expense increased in the
three- and nine-
month periods due to higher default-related and other loss mitigation expenses, increased mortgage-related assessments and waivers costs and higher litigation expense. Noninterest expense for the
nine
-month period was also impacted by a non-cash goodwill impairment charge.
Global Commercial Banking
net income increased for the
three- and nine-
month periods driven by lower credit costs from improved asset quality. Revenue decreased for the
three- and nine-
month periods driven by lower net interest income related to asset and liability management (ALM) activities and lower loan volumes. Noninterest expense decreased for the
three
-month period driven by lower support costs and increased for the
nine
-month period due to an increase in technology investments.
GBAM
reported a net loss for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared to net income for the same period in the prior year driven by decreased sales and trading activity due to a less favorable market environment which was partially offset by DVA gains, lower investment banking fees and the U.K corporate income tax rate change enacted during the quarter which reduced the carrying value of the related deferred tax assets. Net income decreased for the
nine
-month period driven by decreased sales and trading activity due to a less favorable market environment which was partially offset by DVA gains, and higher noninterest expense driven by increased costs related to investments in infrastructure.
GWIM
net income increased for the
three- and nine-
month periods driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher noninterest expense. Revenue increased driven by higher asset management fees from higher market levels and long-term assets under management (AUM) inflows as well as higher net interest income. The provision for credit losses increased for the
three
-month period due to increased reserves in the residential mortgage portfolio. During the
nine
-month period, the provision for credit losses decreased driven by improving portfolio trends. Noninterest expense increased due to higher revenue-related expenses and personnel costs associated with the continued build-out of the business.
All Other
net income increased for the
three- and nine-
month periods due to higher noninterest income and lower noninterest expense partially offset by higher provision for credit losses. Noninterest income increased due to positive fair value adjustments related to structured liabilities as well as the gain on sale of approximately half of our equity interest in CCB partially offset by losses related to equity and strategic investments excluding CCB. The increase in provision for credit losses was driven primarily by a slower pace of improvement in the residential mortgage portfolio. The decrease in noninterest expense was due to a decline in merger and restructuring charges.

Financial Highlights

|
Net Interest Income
|
Net interest income on a FTE basis
decreased
$2.0 billion
to
$10.7 billion
and
$5.4 billion
to
$34.6 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The decrease was primarily due to lower consumer loan balances and yields and decreased investment yields, including the acceleration of purchase premium amortization from an increase in modeled prepayment expectations and increased hedge ineffectiveness due to lower interest rates. Also negatively impacting net interest income was lower trading-related net interest income. Net interest income benefited from ongoing reductions in long-term debt balances and lower rates paid on deposits. The net interest yield on a FTE basis decreased 40 basis points (bps) to 2.32 percent and 31 bps to 2.50 percent for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
as the margin continues to be under pressure due to the low rate environment.

Noninterest income
increased
$3.7 billion
to
$18.0 billion
and
decreased
$14.1 billion
to
$34.7 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The following highlights the significant changes.
|
•
|
Service charges
decreased
$144 million
and
$1.2 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
largely due to the impact of overdraft policy changes in conjunction with Regulation E, that were fully implemented during the third quarter of 2010.
|
|
•
|
Investment banking income
decreased
$429 million
and
increased
$274 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
. The decrease for the
three
-month period was due to weakening markets for debt and equity issuance fees as a result of market uncertainty and a decrease in global fee pools. The increase for the
nine
-month period was primarily due to higher advisory fees.
|
|
•
|
Equity investment income
increased
$1.1 billion
and
$385 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
. The
three months ended September 30, 2011
included a
$3.6 billion
gain on the sale of approximately one-half of our investment in CCB, partially offset by losses of $2.2 billion related to equity and strategic investments excluding CCB. The
nine months ended September 30, 2011
included the CCB gain and a
$377 million
gain on the sale of our investment in BlackRock, Inc. (BlackRock), partially offset by $1.1 billion of impairment write-downs on our merchant services joint venture. The
nine
-month period in the prior year included a
$1.2 billion
gain on the sale of a strategic investment and $1.2 billion of positive valuation adjustments in Global Principal Investments (GPI).
|
14
|
•
|
Trading account profits
decreased
$992 million
and
$2.6 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
primarily due to adverse market conditions and extreme volatility in the credit markets compared to the prior year. DVA gains on derivatives of
$1.7 billion
and
$1.5 billion
were recorded for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
as a result of the widening of our credit spreads during the period, compared to losses of
$34 million
and gains of
$212 million
for the same periods in the prior year. Also, in conjunction with regulatory reform measures and our initiative to optimize our balance sheet, the proprietary trading business was completely exited as of June 30, 2011. Proprietary trading revenue was $434 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.2 billion in the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
.
|
|
•
|
Mortgage banking income
decreased
$138 million
and
$15.1 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
with the
nine
-month change driven by a
$12.7 billion
increase in the representations and warranties provision which was primarily related to the BNY Mellon Settlement as well as lower production volume due to a reduction in new loan origination volumes and less favorable mortgage servicing rights (MSR) results.
|
|
•
|
Other income
increased
$4.1 billion
and
$3.2 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
. For the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, the increase was primarily due to positive fair value adjustments of
$4.5 billion
on structured liabilities due to widening of our credit spreads, compared to negative fair value adjustments of
$190 million
for the same period in 2010. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the increase was primarily due to positive fair value adjustments of
$4.1 billion
on structured liabilities compared to positive fair value adjustments of
$1.2 billion
in the
same period in 2010
. In addition to the factors described above, the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
included a
$771 million
gain on the sale of the lender-placed insurance business of Balboa.
|
|
Provision for Credit Losses
|
The provision for credit losses
decreased
$2.0 billion
to
$3.4 billion
, and
$12.8 billion
to
$10.5 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The provision for credit losses included $1.7 billion and $6.3 billion of reserve reductions for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
driven primarily by lower delinquencies, improved collection rates and fewer bankruptcy filings across the
Card Services
portfolio, and improvement in overall credit quality in the commercial real estate portfolio.
The provision for credit losses related to our consumer portfolio decreased $1.3 billion to $3.5 billion and $9.1 billion to $11.2 billion for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The provision for credit losses related to our commercial portfolio including the provision for unfunded lending commitments decreased $653 million to a benefit of $59 million and $3.8 billion to a benefit of $695 million for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
.
Net charge-offs totaled
$5.1 billion
, or 2.17 percent and
$16.8 billion
, or 2.41 percent of average loans and leases for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared with
$7.2 billion
, or 3.07 percent, and
$27.6 billion
, or 3.84 percent, for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
. The
decrease
in net charge-offs was primarily driven by improvements in general economic conditions that resulted in lower delinquencies, improved collection rates and fewer bankruptcy filings across the
Card Services
portfolio as well as lower losses in the home equity portfolio driven by fewer delinquent loans. For more information on the provision for credit losses, see
Provision for Credit Losses

Noninterest expense
decreased
$9.6 billion
to
$17.6 billion
, and
$1.5 billion
to
$60.8 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
. The largest drivers in the comparisons were goodwill impairment charges of
$10.4 billion
in the third quarter of 2010 and
$2.6 billion
in the second quarter of 2011.
Personnel expense
increased
$1.9 billion
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same period in 2010
attributable to personnel costs related to the continued build-out of certain businesses, technology costs as well as increases in default-related servicing. Additionally, for the same period, professional fees
increased
$537 million
related to consulting fees for regulatory initiatives as well as higher legal expenses and other general operating expenses
increased
$4.5 billion
largely as a result of $1.9 billion in mortgage-related assessments and waivers costs and an increase of $2.6 billion in litigation expense, predominantly related to mortgage issues. Merger and restructuring expenses
decreased
by
$913 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same period in 2010
.
|
Income Tax Expense
|
Income tax
expense
was
$1.2 billion
on pre-tax
income
of
$7.4 billion
for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
resulting in an effective tax rate of
16.2 percent
compared to income tax
expense
of
$1.4 billion
on the pre-tax
loss
of
$5.9 billion
for the
same period in 2010
. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the income tax
benefit
was
$2.1 billion
on the pre-tax
loss
of
$2.7 billion
resulting in an effective tax rate of
79.5 percent
benefit on the
loss
compared to income tax
expense
of
$3.3 billion
on the pre-tax
income
of
$2.3 billion
for the
same period in 2010
. The effective tax rates for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
were not meaningful due to the impact of the non-deductible
$10.4 billion
goodwill impairment charge in the third quarter of 2010.
The effective tax rate of
16.2 percent
for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
was driven by a $619 million reduction of a valuation allowance established against the Merrill Lynch capital loss carryover deferred tax asset, a $593 million benefit for capital loss deferred tax assets recognized in connection with the liquidation of certain subsidiaries and recurring tax preference items, such as tax-exempt income and affordable housing credits. These were partially offset by the $782 million impact of the U.K. corporate income tax rate reduction referred to below.
The effective tax rate of
79.5 percent
benefit for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
was driven by the same factors as above, as well as by the effect of those net tax benefits on the level of the year-to-date pre-tax loss, partially offset by the impact of the non-deductible
$2.6 billion
goodwill impairment charge in the second quarter of 2011.
On July 19, 2011, the U.K. 2011 Finance Bill was enacted which reduced the corporate income tax rate to 26 percent beginning on April 1, 2011, and then to 25 percent effective April 1, 2012. These rate reductions will favorably affect income tax expense on future U.K. earnings but also required us to remeasure our U.K. net deferred tax assets using the lower tax rates. As noted above, income tax expense (benefit) for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
included a $782 million charge for the remeasurement. If corporate income tax rates were to be reduced to 23 percent by 2014 as suggested in U.K. Treasury announcements and assuming no change in the deferred tax asset balance, a charge to income tax expense of approximately $400 million for each one percent reduction in the rate would result in each period of enactment.

Period-end balance sheet amounts may vary from average balance sheet amounts due to liquidity and balance sheet management activities, primarily involving our portfolios of highly liquid assets, that are designed to ensure the adequacy of capital while enhancing our ability to manage liquidity requirements for the Corporation and our customers, and to position the balance sheet in accordance with the Corporation’s risk appetite. The execution of these activities requires the use of balance sheet and capital-related limits including spot, average and risk-weighted asset limits, particularly in our trading businesses. One of our key metrics, Tier 1 leverage ratio, is calculated based on adjusted quarterly average total assets. Risk mitigation activities that contributed to the decrease in average assets during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
included reduction of exposure within various types of low quality and alternative investments, significant loan run-off and the exit of proprietary trading.

Assets
|
At
September 30, 2011
, total assets were
$2.2 trillion
, a
decrease
of
$45.3 billion
, or
two
percent, from
December 31, 2010
driven by a decline in cash held overnight at the Federal Reserve, the sale of certain strategic investments, lower trading asset levels due to reduced long inventory hedges, lower yield trading activity and a decline in the market value of inventory hedges.
Average total assets decreased
$77.9 billion
and
$136.7 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
. The most significant decreases were due to lower overnight cash deposits with the Federal Reserve and a reduction in goodwill. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, certain actions were taken to reduce risk-weighted assets, including reducing certain capital markets risk exposures, selling assets, reducing our loan run-off portfolio and exiting proprietary trading activities. For more information, see
Capital Management – Regulatory Capital

Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity
|
At
September 30, 2011
, total liabilities were
$2.0 trillion
, a
decrease
of
$47.3 billion
, or
two
percent, from
December 31, 2010
driven by planned reductions in long-term debt and short-term borrowings, partially offset by deposit growth.
Average total liabilities decreased
$66.4 billion
and
$133.7 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
. The decreases were primarily driven by the same factors described above for ending liabilities and reductions in securities sold under agreement to repurchase partially offset by a higher representations and warranties reserve.
Shareholders’ equity
increased
$2.0 billion
to
$230.3 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
. The
increase
was driven primarily by the sale of preferred stock and related warrant to Berkshire, partially offset by a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI). For more information, see
Note 12 – Shareholders' Equity
to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Average shareholders’ equity decreased
$11.6 billion
and
$3.1 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
. The decreases were primarily driven by the impact of the net loss for the
three months ended June 30, 2011
.

Supplemental Financial Data
|
We view net interest income and related ratios and analyses (i.e., efficiency ratio and net interest yield) on a FTE basis. Although these are non-GAAP measures, we believe managing the business with net interest income on a FTE basis provides a more accurate picture of the interest margin for comparative purposes. To derive the FTE basis, net interest income is adjusted to reflect tax-exempt income on an equivalent before-tax basis with a corresponding increase in income tax expense. For purposes of this calculation, we use the federal statutory tax rate of 35 percent. This measure ensures comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources.
As mentioned above, certain performance measures including the efficiency ratio and net interest yield utilize net interest income (and thus total revenue) on a FTE basis. The efficiency ratio measures the costs expended to generate a dollar of revenue, and net interest yield evaluates the bps we earn over the cost of funds. During our annual planning process, we set efficiency targets for the Corporation and each line of business. We believe the use of these non-GAAP measures provides additional clarity in assessing our results. Targets vary by year and by business and are based on a variety of factors including maturity of the business, competitive environment, market factors and other items including our risk appetite.
We also evaluate our business based on the following ratios that utilize tangible equity, a non-GAAP measure. Return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity measures our earnings contribution as a percentage of common shareholders’ equity plus any Common Equivalent Securities (CES) less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities. Return on average tangible shareholders’ equity (ROTE) measures our earnings contribution as a percentage of average shareholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities. The tangible common equity ratio represents common shareholders’ equity plus any CES less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities. The tangible equity ratio represents total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities. Tangible book value per common share represents ending common shareholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities divided by ending common shares outstanding. These measures are used to evaluate our use of equity (i.e., capital). In addition, profitability, relationship and investment models all use ROTE as key measures to support our overall growth goals.
In addition, we evaluate our business segment results based on return on average economic capital, a non-GAAP financial measure. Return on average economic capital for the segments is calculated as net income, adjusted for cost of funds and earnings credits and certain expenses related to intangibles, divided by average economic capital. Economic capital represents allocated equity less goodwill and a percentage of intangible assets. We also believe the use of this non-GAAP measure provides additional clarity in assessing the segments.
21
The aforementioned supplemental data and performance measures are presented in Tables
7
and
8
. In addition, in Tables
9
and
10
we excluded the impact of goodwill impairment charges of
$2.6 billion
recorded in the second quarter of 2011, and
$10.4 billion
and
$2.0 billion
recorded in the third and fourth quarters of 2010 when presenting earnings (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per common share, the efficiency ratio, return on average assets, four quarter trailing return on average assets, return on average common shareholders’ equity, return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity and ROTE. Accordingly, these are non-GAAP measures. Tables
9
and
10
provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures with financial measures defined by GAAP. We believe the use of these non-GAAP measures provides additional clarity in assessing the results of the Corporation. Other companies may define or calculate these measures and ratios differently.

Core Net Interest Income
|
We manage core net interest income which is reported net interest income on a FTE basis adjusted for the impact of market-based activities. As discussed in the
GBAM
business segment section on page
47
, we evaluate our market-based results and strategies on a total market-based revenue approach by combining net interest income and noninterest income for
GBAM
. An analysis of core net interest income, core average earning assets and core net interest yield on earning assets, all of which adjust for the impact of market-based activities from reported net interest income on a FTE basis, is shown below. We believe the use of this non-GAAP presentation provides additional clarity in assessing our results.

For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, core net interest income
decreased
$
1.9 billion
to $
9.8 billion
, and $
5.0 billion
to $
31.7 billion
compared to the same periods in 2010. The
decrease
was primarily due to lower consumer loan balances and yields and decreased investment yields, including the acceleration of purchase premium amortization from an increase in modeled prepayment expectations and increased hedge ineffectiveness. Core net interest income benefited from ongoing reductions in long-term debt balances and lower interest rates paid on deposits.
For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, core average earning assets increased
$33.6 billion
to
$1,394 billion
and
$13.2 billion
to
$1,392 billion
compared to the same periods in 2010. The
increase
was primarily due to growth in residential mortgages and investment securities, and was partially offset by declines in credit card and home equity loans.
For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, core net interest yield
decreased
63
bps to
2.79 percent
and
51
bps to
3.04 percent
compared to the same periods in 2010 due to the factors noted above. Over the
three- and nine-
month periods in 2011, the yield curve flattened significantly with long-term rates near historical lows at
September 30, 2011
. This has resulted in net interest yield compression as assets have repriced down and liability yields have remained relatively stable.

For this presentation, fees earned on overnight deposits placed with the Federal Reserve are included in the cash and cash equivalents line, consistent with the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet presentation of these deposits. Net interest income and net interest yield are calculated excluding these fees.

|
Yields on AFS debt securities are calculated based on fair value rather than the cost basis. The use of fair value does not have a material impact on net interest yield.
|
|

Nonperforming loans are included in the respective average loan balances. Income on these nonperforming loans is recognized on a cash basis. PCI loans were recorded at fair value upon acquisition and accrete interest income over the remaining life of the loan.

Includes non-U.S. residential mortgage loans of $91 million, $94 million and $92 million in the third, second and first quarters of 2011, and $96 million and $502 million in the fourth and third quarters of 2010, respectively.

Business Segment Operations
|
|
Segment Description and Basis of Presentation
|
We report the results of our operations through six business segments:
Deposits
,
Card Services
,
CRES
,
Global Commercial Banking
,
GBAM
and
GWIM
, with the remaining operations recorded in
All Other
. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
We prepare and evaluate segment results using certain non-GAAP methodologies and performance measures, many of which are discussed in
Supplemental Financial Data
on page
21
. We begin by evaluating the operating results of the segments which by definition exclude merger and restructuring charges.
The management accounting and reporting process derives segment and business results by utilizing allocation methodologies for revenue and expense. The net income derived for the businesses is dependent upon revenue and cost allocations using an activity-based costing model, funds transfer pricing, and other methodologies and assumptions management believes are appropriate to reflect the results of the business.
Total revenue, net of interest expense, includes net interest income on a FTE basis and noninterest income. The adjustment of net interest income to a FTE basis results in a corresponding increase in income tax expense. The segment results also reflect certain revenue and expense methodologies that are utilized to determine net income. The net interest income of the businesses includes the results of a funds transfer pricing process that matches assets and liabilities with similar interest rate sensitivity and maturity characteristics. For presentation purposes, in segments where the total of liabilities and equity exceeds assets, which are generally deposit-taking segments, we allocate assets to match liabilities. Net interest income of the business segments also includes an allocation of net interest income generated by certain of our ALM activities.
Our ALM activities include an overall interest rate risk management strategy that incorporates the use of various derivatives and cash instruments to manage fluctuations in earnings and capital that are caused by interest rate volatility. Our goal is to manage interest rate sensitivity so that movements in interest rates do not significantly adversely affect earnings and capital. The majority of our ALM activities are allocated to the business segments and fluctuate based on performance. ALM activities include external product pricing decisions including deposit pricing strategies, the effects of our internal funds transfer pricing process and the net effects of other ALM activities.
Certain expenses not directly attributable to a specific business segment are allocated to the segments. The most significant of these expenses include data and item processing costs and certain centralized or shared functions. Data processing costs are allocated to the segments based on equipment usage. Item processing costs are allocated to the segments based on the volume of items processed for each segment. The costs of certain centralized or shared functions are allocated based on methodologies that reflect utilization.
Equity is allocated to business segments and related businesses using a risk-adjusted methodology incorporating each segment’s credit, market, interest rate, strategic and operational risk components. The nature of these risks is discussed further on page
70
. We benefit from the diversification of risk across these components which is reflected as a reduction to allocated equity for each segment. The total amount of average equity reflects both risk-based capital and the portion of goodwill and intangibles specifically assigned to the business segments. The risk-adjusted methodology is periodically refined and such refinements are reflected as changes to allocated equity in each segment.
For more information on selected financial information for the business segments and reconciliations to consolidated total revenue, net income (loss) and period-end total assets, see
Note 20 – Business Segment Information
to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Return on average economic capital and economic capital are non-GAAP measures. Other companies may define or calculate these measures differently. An increase in the ratio for the three-month period resulted from higher net income and a decrease in economic capital. The decrease in the ratio for the nine-month period resulted from lower net income partially offset by a decrease in economic capital. Economic capital decreased due to improvements in interest rate risk related to changes in the composition of the deposit base. For additional information on these measures and for corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures, see

Depos
its
includes the results of consumer deposit activities which consist of a comprehensive range of products provided to consumers and small businesses. Our deposit products include traditional savings accounts, money market savings accounts, CDs and IRAs, noninterest- and interest-bearing checking accounts, as well as investment accounts and products. Deposit products provide a relatively stable source of funding and liquidity for the Corporation. We earn net interest spread revenue from investing this liquidity in earning assets through client-facing lending and ALM activities. The revenue is allocated to the deposit products using our funds transfer pricing process which takes into account the interest rates and maturity characteristics of the deposits.

Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
increased
$78 million
, or
39 percent
, to
$276 million
due to a decrease in noninterest expense partially offset by lower revenue. Revenue of
$3.1 billion
was down
$27 million
from the year-ago quarter driven by lower noninterest income, reflecting the impact of overdraft policy changes in conjunction with Regulation E that were fully implemented during the third quarter of 2010. For more information on Regulation E, see
Regulatory Matters
of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
on page
56
. Noninterest expense was down
$147 million
from a year ago to
$2.6 billion
due to a decrease in operating expenses.
Average deposits
increased
$11.2 billion
from a year ago driven by a customer shift to more liquid products in a low interest rate environment.

Card Se
rvices
is one of the leading issuers of credit and debit cards in the U.S. to consume
rs and small businesses providing a broad offering of lending products including co-branded and affinity products. On August 15, 2011,
we announced an agreement to sell our Canadian consumer card business and that we intend to exit our consumer card businesses in Europe. The sale of the Canadian consumer card business is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2011. In light of these actions, the international consumer card business results were moved to
All Other,
prior period results have been reclassified and the
Global Card Services
business segment was renamed
Card Services
. The loans related to the Canada consumer card business are currently classified as held-for-sale within
All Other.
37
During 2010 and 2011,
Card Services
was negatively impacted by provisions of the CARD Act. The majority of the provisions of the CARD Act became effective on February 22, 2010, while certain provisions became effective in the third quarter of 2010. The CARD Act has negatively impacted net interest income due to restrictions on our ability to reprice credit cards based on risk and card income due to restrictions imposed on certain fees. For more information on the CARD Act, see
Regulatory Matters
of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
on page
56
.
On June 29, 2011, the Federal Reserve adopted a final rule with respect to the Durbin Amendment, effective October 1, 2011, that establishes the maximum allowable interchange fees a bank can receive for a debit card transaction. The Federal Reserve also adopted a rule to allow a debit card issuer to recover one cent per transaction for fraud prevention purposes if the issuer complies with certain fraud-related requirements. We intend to comply with these fraud-related requirements. In addition, the Federal Reserve approved rules governing routing and exclusivity, requiring issuers to offer two unaffiliated networks for routing transactions on each debit or prepaid product, which are effective April 1, 2012. For more information on the final interchange rules, see
Regulatory Matters
on page
68
. The new interchange fee rules are expected to result in a reduction of debit card revenue in the fourth quarter of 2011 of approximately $475 million.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
increased
$11.1 billion
to
$1.3 billion
primarily driven by a decline in noninterest expense due to the
$10.4 billion
goodwill impairment charge in
2010
, and a
$2.0 billion
decrease
in the provision for credit losses. This was partially offset by a
decrease
in revenue of
$870 million
, or
16 percent
, to
$4.5 billion
primarily due to lower net interest income.
Net interest income
decreased
$677 million
, or
19 percent
, to
$2.8 billion
driven by lower average loan balances and yields. Net interest yield
decreased
78
bps to
8.98 percent
due to charge-offs and paydowns of higher interest rate products. Noninterest income
decreased
$193 million
, or
10 percent
, to
$1.7 billion
.
The provision for credit losses
decreased
$2.0 billion
to
$1.0 billion
reflecting lower delinquencies, improved collection rates and fewer bankruptcy filings as a result of improving economic conditions and lower average loans. For more information on the provision for credit losses, see
Provision for Credit Losses
on page
119
.
Average loans
decreased
$17.5 billion
driven by higher payments, charge-offs, continued run-off of non-core portfolios and the impact of portfolio divestitures earlier in
2011
.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
increased
$13.0 billion
to
$4.8 billion
primarily due to the
$10.4 billion
goodwill impairment charge in the third quarter of
2010
and a
decrease
in the provision for credit losses of
$7.2 billion
to
$1.9 billion
, partially offset by a
$2.9 billion
decline
in revenue to
$14.1 billion
. Net interest income of
$8.7 billion
decreased
$2.3 billion
, noninterest income
declined
$640 million
to
$5.3 billion
and noninterest expense
decreased
$10.3 billion
to
$4.6 billion
. These period over period changes were primarily driven by the same factors described in the three-month discussion above. In addition, the decline in noninterest income reflected the gain on the sale of our MasterCard position in the second quarter of 2010 and the CARD Act as discussed above.

Economic capital is a non-GAAP measure. Economic capital decreased due to improvements in credit risk as loan balances declined and due to a lower MSR balance. Allocated equity decreased due to the
$2.0 billion
goodwill impairment charge recorded during the fourth quarter of 2010 and the
$2.6 billion
goodwill impairment charge recorded during the second quarter of 2011. For additional information on this measure and for a corresponding reconciliation to a GAAP financial measure, see

CRES
was realigned effective January 1, 2011 and its activities are now referred to as Home Loans, Legacy Asset Servicing and Other. This realignment allows
CRES
management to lead the ongoing home loan business while also providing greater focus and transparency on legacy mortgage issues.
CRES
generates revenue by providing an extensive line of consumer real estate products and services to customers nationwide.
CRES
products include fixed and adjustable-rate first-lien mortgage loans for home purchase and refinancing needs, home equity lines of credit (HELOC) and home equity loans. First mortgage products are either sold into the secondary mortgage market to investors, while we retain MSRs and the Bank of America customer relationships, or are held on our balance sheet in
All Other
for ALM purposes. HELOC and home equity loans are retained on the
CRES
balance sheet.
CRES
services mortgage loans, including those loans it owns, loans owned by other business segments and
All Other
, and loans owned by outside investors.
The financial results of the on-balance sheet loans are reported in the business segment that owns the loans or
All Other
.
CRES
is not impacted by the Corporation’s first mortgage production retention decisions as
CRES
is compensated for loans held for ALM purposes on a management accounting basis, with a corresponding offset recorded in
All Other,
and for servicing loans owned by other business segments and
All Other
.
CRES
includes the impact of transferring customers and their related loan balances between
GWIM
and
CRES
based on client segmentation thresholds. For more information on the migration of customer balances, see
GWIM
on page
52
.
Home Loans
Home Loans' products are available to our customers through our retail network of approximately
5,700
banking centers, mortgage loan officers in approximately 750 locations and a sales force offering our customers direct telephone and online access to our products. These products are also offered through our correspondent lending channel.
In October 2011, we
announced that we intend to wind down the correspondent channel by the end of 2011. On February 4, 2011, we announced that we were exiting the reverse mortgage origination business. In October 2010, we exited the first mortgage wholesale acquisition channel. These strategic changes were made to allow greater focus on our direct to consumer channels and to deepen relationships with existing customers and use mortgage products to acquire new relationships.
Home Loans includes the ongoing loan production activities, certain servicing activities and the
CRES
home equity portfolio not selected for inclusion in the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio
.
Servicing activities include collecting cash for principal, interest and escrow payments from borrowers, and disbursing customer draws for lines of credit and accounting for and remitting principal and interest payments to investors and escrow payments to third parties along with responding to non-default related customer inquiries. Home Loans also included insurance operations through June 30, 2011, when the ongoing insurance business was transferred to
Card Services
following the sale of Balboa’s lender-placed insurance business. Due to the realignment of
CRES
, the composition of the Home Loans loan portfolio does not currently reflect a normalized level of credit losses and noninterest expense which we expect will develop over time.
Legacy Asset Servicing
Legacy Asset Servicing is responsible for servicing and managing the exposures related to selected residential mortgage, home equity and discontinued real estate loan portfolios. These selected loan portfolios include owned loans and loans serviced for others, including loans held in other business segments and
All Other
(collectively, the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio). The Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio includes residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and discontinued real estate loans that would not have been originated under our underwriting standards at December 31, 2010. Countrywide loans that were impaired at the time of acquisition (the Countrywide PCI portfolio) as well as certain loans that met a pre-defined delinquency status or probability of default threshold as of January 1, 2011, are also included in the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio. Since determining the pool of loans that would be included in the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio as of January 1, 2011, the criteria have not changed for this portfolio. However, the criteria for inclusion of certain assets and liabilities in the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio will continue to be evaluated over time.
The total owned loans in the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio were
$163.2 billion
at
September 30, 2011
, of which
$64.7 billion
are reflected on the balance sheet of Legacy Asset Servicing within
CRES
and the remainder is held on the balance sheet of
All Other
. For more information on the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio criteria, see
Consumer Credit Portfolio
on page
85
.
Legacy Asset Servicing results reflect the net cost of legacy exposures that is included in the results of
CRES
, including representations and warranties provision, litigation costs and financial results of the
CRES
home equity portfolio selected as part of the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio. In addition, certain revenue and expenses on loans serviced for others, including loans serviced for other business segments and
All Other
, are included in Legacy Asset Servicing results. The results of the Legacy Asset Servicing residential mortgage and discontinued real estate portfolios are recorded primarily in
All Other
.
40
Our home retention efforts are part of our servicing activities, along with supervising foreclosures and property dispositions. These default-related activities are performed by Legacy Asset Servicing. In an effort to help our customers avoid foreclosure, Legacy Asset Servicing evaluates various workout options prior to foreclosure sales which, combined with our temporary halt of foreclosures announced in October 2010, has resulted in elongated default timelines. We have resumed foreclosure sales in all non-judicial states; however, while we have recently resumed foreclosure proceedings in nearly all judicial states, our progress on foreclosure sales in judicial states has been significantly slower than in non-judicial states. We have also not resumed foreclosure sales for certain types of customers, including those in bankruptcy and those with FHA-insured loans, although we have resumed foreclosure proceedings with respect to certain customers in bankruptcy and with FHA-insured loans. The implementation of changes in procedures and controls, including loss mitigation procedures related to our ability to recover on FHA insurance-related claims, as well as governmental, regulatory and judicial actions, may result in continuing delays in foreclosure proceedings and foreclosure sales, as well as creating obstacles to the collection of certain fees and expenses, in both judicial and non- judicial foreclosures. For additional information on our servicing activities, see
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Other Mortgage-related Matters
on page
66
.
Other
The Other component within
CRES
includes the results of certain MSR activities, including net hedge results, together with any related assets or liabilities used as economic hedges. The change in the value of the MSRs reflects the change in discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions, as well as the effect of changes in other assumptions, including the cost to service. These amounts are not allocated between Home Loans and Legacy Asset Servicing since the MSRs are managed as a single asset. Goodwill assigned to
CRES
was included in Other; however, the remaining balance of goodwill was written off in its entirety during the three months ended June 30, 2011. For additional information on MSRs, see
Note 19 – Mortgage Servicing Rights
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
The
CRES
net loss
increased
$745 million
to
$1.1 billion
. Revenue
declined
$790 million
to
$2.8 billion
primarily driven by a
decrease
of
$1.0 billion
in core production income, due to a 54 percent decline in loan funding volume caused primarily by lower overall market demand, a drop in market share, largely in the correspondent channel. Additionally, the decline in revenue was due to a
$504 million
decrease
in insurance income due to the sale of Balboa's lender-placed insurance business in the second quarter of 2011 and a decline in net interest income primarily due to the change in the composition of assets and liabilities driven primarily by lower average balances of loans held-for-sale (LHFS). Partially offsetting the revenue decline was a
decrease
of
$594 million
in representations and warranties provision and
more favorable
MSR results, net of hedges, of
$450 million
.
Provision for credit losses
declined
$384 million
to
$918 million
reflecting improved portfolio trends, including the Countrywide PCI home equity portfolio.
Noninterest expense
increased
$929 million
to
$3.9 billion
primarily due to higher default-related and other loss mitigation expenses and
$290 million
in litigation expense. Additionally, as a result of elongated default timelines, our servicing costs have increased driven by
$350 million
of mortgage-related assessments and waivers costs, which included
$244 million
for compensatory fees that we expect to be assessed by the GSEs as a result of foreclosure delays pursuant to our agreements and first mortgage seller/servicer guides with the GSEs which provide timelines to complete the liquidation of delinquent loans. In instances where we fail to meet these timelines, our agreements provide the GSEs with the option to assess compensatory fees. The remainder of the mortgage-related assessments and waivers costs are out-of-pocket costs that we do not expect to recover. We expect these costs will remain elevated as additional loans are delayed in the foreclosure process and as the GSEs assert more aggressive criteria. We also expect that continued elevated costs, including costs related to resources necessary to perform the foreclosure process assessments, to revise affidavit filings and to implement other operational changes will continue. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $181 million in insurance expenses and a decline of $199 million in production expense primarily due to lower origination volumes.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
The
CRES
net loss
increased
$14.1 billion
to
$18.1 billion
. Revenue
declined
$16.3 billion
to a loss of
$6.4 billion
due in large part to a
decrease
of
$14.9 billion
in mortgage banking income driven by an
increase
in representations and warranties provision of
$12.7 billion
and a
decline
in core production income of
$2.3 billion
. The representations and warranties provision included
$8.6 billion
related to the BNY Mellon Settlement in the second quarter of 2011 and $6.7 billion related to other non-GSE exposures, and to a lesser extent, GSE exposures. For additional information on representations and warranties, see
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
and
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Representations and Warranties
on page
58
. The
decrease
in core production income was due to lower production volume and driven by the same factors noted in the three-month discussion. Net interest income also contributed to the
decline
in revenue driven by increases in allocated interest expense and the same factors noted in the three-month discussion. These declines were partially offset by a pre-tax gain on the sale of Balboa's lender-placed insurance business of $752 million, net of an inter-segment advisory fee. Provision for credit losses
decreased
$3.8 billion
to
$3.5 billion
driven primarily by improving portfolio trends, including the Countrywide PCI home equity
41
portfolio. Noninterest expense
increased
$8.4 billion
to
$17.3 billion
due to a non-cash, non-tax deductible goodwill impairment charge of
$2.6 billion
in the second quarter of 2011 and increased litigation expenses as well as the same factors noted in the three-month discussion.
|
Mortgage Banking Income
|
CRES
mortgage banking income is categorized into production and servicing income. Core production income is comprised of revenue from the fair value gains and losses recognized on our interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) and LHFS, the related secondary market execution, and costs related to representations and warranties in the sales transactions along with other obligations incurred in the sales of mortgage loans. In addition, production income includes revenue, which is offset in
All Other,
for transfers of mortgage loans from
CRES
to the ALM portfolio related to the Corporation’s mortgage production retention decisions. Ongoing costs related to representations and warranties and other obligations that were incurred in the sales of mortgage loans in prior periods are also included in production income.
Servicing income includes income earned in connection with servicing activities and MSR valuation adjustments, net of economic hedge activities. The costs associated with our servicing activities are included in noninterest expense.
The table below summarizes the components of mortgage banking income.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Core production revenue of
$803 million
represented a
decrease
of
$1.0 billion
due primarily to lower new loan origination volumes. The decline in new loan originations was caused primarily by lower overall market demand, a drop in market share, largely in the correspondent and retail sales channels and the exit from the wholesale acquisition channel. In addition, the representations and warranties provision
decreased
$594 million
to
$278 million
due primarily to a lower provision related to the GSEs.
Net servicing income
increased
$495 million
due to favorable MSR results, net of hedges. While overall MSRs results, net of hedges, were favorable, the MSR results during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
reflect a
$3.9 billion
decline in the capitalized value of MSRs offset by $4.3 billion in gains from the economic hedges designed to protect against changes in the value of the MSRs driven by interest rate fluctuations. The decline in the value of the MSRs was driven primarily by a decline in interest rates, which resulted in higher forecasted prepayment speeds. For additional information on MSRs and the related hedge instruments, see

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
Core production revenue of
$2.3 billion
represented a
decline
of
$2.3 billion
due to lower production volume driven by the same factors noted in the three-month discussion. The representations and warranties provision
increased
$12.7 billion
to
$15.3 billion
. Net servicing income was unchanged as less favorable MSR results, net of hedges, and lower servicing income was offset by a decline in impact of customer payments.

The total Corporation mortgage servicing portfolio included
$1,062 billion
in Home Loans and
$855 billion
in Legacy Asset Servicing at
September 30, 2011
. The total Corporation mortgage loans serviced for investors included
$858 billion
in Home Loans and
$654 billion
in Legacy Asset Servicing at
September 30, 2011
.

First mortgage production was
$33.0 billion
and
$130.1 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$71.9 billion
and
$213.4 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. The
decrease
of
$38.9 billion
and
$83.2 billion
was primarily due to a decline in the overall market demand for mortgages and a reduction in market share in both the retail and correspondent sales channels partially driven by pricing strategies in the correspondent channel as well as our exit from the wholesale acquisition channel.
Home equity production was
$847 million
and
$3.6 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$2.1 billion
and
$6.3 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
primarily due to a decline in reverse mortgage originations based on our decision to exit this business in February 2011.
At
September 30, 2011
, the consumer MSR balance was
$7.9 billion
, which represented
52
bps of the related unpaid principal balance compared to
$14.9 billion
or
92
bps of the related unpaid principal balance at
December 31, 2010
. The decline in the consumer MSR balance was primarily driven by lower mortgage rates, which resulted in higher forecasted prepayment speeds partially offset by adjustments to prepayment models to reflect muted refinancing activity relative to historic norms, the impact of elevated expected costs to service delinquent loans, which reduced expected cash flows and the value of the MSRs and MSR sales. In addition, the MSRs declined as a result of customer payments. These declines were partially offset by the addition of new MSRs recorded in connection with sales of loans. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, MSRs in the amount of $218 million and $452 million were sold. Gains and losses recognized on these transactions were not significant. These sales are designed to reduce the balance of MSRs and lower our default-related servicing costs. For additional information on our servicing activities, see

Return on average economic capital and economic capital are non-GAAP measures. Other companies may define or calculate these measures differently. Increases in the ratios resulted from higher net income and lower economic capital. Economic capital decreased due to improved credit quality and declining loan balances.

Global Commercial Banking
provides a wide range of lending-related products and services, integrated working capital management and treasury solutions to clients through our network of offices and client relationship teams along with various product partners. Our clients include business banking and middle-market companies, commercial real estate firms and governments, and are generally defined as companies with annual sales up to $2 billion. Our lending products and services include commercial loans and commitment facilities, real estate lending, asset-based lending and indirect consumer loans. Our capital management and treasury solutions include treasury management, foreign exchange and short-term investing options. Effective in the first quarter of 2011, management responsibility for the merchant processing joint venture, Banc of America Merchant Services, LLC, was moved from
GBAM
to
Global Commercial Banking
where it more closely aligns with the business model. Prior periods have been reclassified to reflect this change. In the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we recorded
$1.1 billion
of impairment write-downs on our investment in the joint venture, of which
$630 million
was recorded in the
three months ended September 30, 2011
. Because of the recent transfer of the joint venture to
Global Commercial Banking
, the impairment write-downs were recorded in
All Other.
For additional information, see
Note 5 – Securities

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
increased
$406 million
, or
63 percent
, to
$1.1 billion
driven by lower credit costs from improved asset quality and lower expenses partially offset by lower revenue.
Revenue
decreased
$100 million
, or
four percent
, primarily driven by lower net interest income related to ALM activities and lower loan volumes. Offsetting this decrease was an
increase
in average deposits of
$25.2 billion
, as clients continue to maintain high levels of liquidity. Noninterest income was essentially unchanged.
The provision for credit losses
decreased
$706 million
to a benefit of
$150 million
driven by improved overall economic conditions and an accelerated rate of loan resolutions in the commercial real estate portfolio.
Noninterest expense
decreased
$43 million
driven by lower support costs.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
increased
$1.2 billion
, or
55 percent
, to
$3.4 billion
due to an improvement in the provision for credit losses of
$2.6 billion
partially offset by lower revenue and higher expenses. The
decrease
in net interest income of
$723 million
was primarily related to ALM activities and lower average loan balances, partially offset by the impact of higher deposits. The
decrease
in provision for credit losses was driven by the same factors described in the three-month discussion above. Noninterest expense
increased
$127 million
due to an increase in FDIC expense driven by growth in deposit balances and higher support costs related primarily to technology investments.
|
Global Commercial Banking Revenue
|
Global Commercial Banking
revenue can also be categorized into treasury services revenue primarily from capital and treasury management, and business lending revenue derived from credit-related products and services.

Treasury services revenue for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
was
$1.2 billion
and
$3.6 billion
,
$74 million
higher than the
three months ended September 30, 2010
and essentially unchanged compared to the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
. Net interest income
increased
$86 million
and
$45 million
to
$706 million
and
$2.2 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
. The increases were driven by the funding benefit of an
increase
in average deposits of
$25.2 billion
and
$21.0 billion
. Noninterest income
decreased
$12 million
and
$47 million
to
$469 million
and
$1.4 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
as clients' use of certain treasury services declined and clients continued to convert from paper to electronic services. These actions, combined with our clients leveraging compensating balances to offset fees, have negatively impacted treasury services noninterest income.
45
Business lending revenue for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
was
$1.4 billion
and
$4.4 billion
, a
decrease
of
$174 million
and
$612 million
compared to the same periods in
2010
. Net interest income
declined
from
$1.2 billion
to
$1.0 billion
for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
and from
$4.0 billion
to
$3.2 billion
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
. The decreases were driven by a lower net interest income allocation related to ALM activities and lower loan balances. Noninterest income
increased
$22 million
to
$322 million
for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
and
$155 million
to
$1.2 billion
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
due in part to a gain on the termination of a purchase contract in the
second
quarter of
2011
. Average loan and lease balances
decreased
$11.4 billion
and
$17.0 billion
, or
six
percent and
eight
percent, for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
as commercial real estate net paydowns and sales outpaced new originations and renewals, and charge-offs continued to reduce exposure, particularly in higher risk portfolios.

Return on average economic capital and economic capital are non-GAAP measures. Other companies may define or calculate these measures differently. The decrease in the ratio for the nine-month period resulted from lower net income partially offset by a decrease in economic capital. Economic capital decreased due to improvements in credit quality and counterparty credit exposure. For additional information on these measures and for corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures, see Supplemental Financial Data on page

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
decreased
$1.8 billion
to a loss of
$302 million
primarily driven by a decline of
$1.7 billion
in sales and trading revenue due to a less favorable market environment that was partially offset by DVA gains, and a decline of
$258 million
in investment banking fees mainly due to weakening markets for debt and equity issuances. DVA gains, which are included in sales and trading revenue, on derivatives during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
were
$1.7 billion
compared to losses of
$34 million
in the
same period in 2010
due to uncertainty caused by the European sovereign debt crisis and the downgrade of our credit ratings by Moody's, both of which contributed to a widening of the Corporation's credit spreads in the third quarter of 2011.
Provision for credit losses
increased
to
$15 million
compared to a benefit of
$157 million
due to higher reserve releases in the prior-year period, coupled with loan growth and a slower rate of improvement within the corporate credit portfolio in the current period. Tax expense in the current-year period included a
$774 million
charge related to a reduction in the U.K. corporate income tax rate enacted during the quarter which reduced the carrying value of the related deferred tax assets, compared to a charge of
$388 million
for a reduction enacted in the prior-year period. For additional information related to the U.K corporate income tax rate reduction, see
Financial Highlights – Income Tax Expense
on page
16
.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
decreased
$2.2 billion
to
$3.4 billion
primarily due to a
decline
of
$3.1 billion
in sales and trading revenue driven by the same factors described in the three-month discussion above, and an
increase
of
$679 million
in noninterest expense driven by increased costs related to investments in infrastructure. These drivers were partially offset by an increase of
$373 million
in investment banking fees. DVA gains on derivatives during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
were
$1.5 billion
compared to gains of
$212 million
in the
same period in 2010
, resulting from the same factors described in the three-month discussion above.
Provision for credit losses
decreased
$215 million
to a benefit of
$269 million
primarily from the positive impact of an improving economic environment on the credit portfolio and a loan recovery.

Fixed income, currencies and commodities (FICC) revenue
decreased
$1.7 billion
, or
48 percent
, to
$1.8 billion
for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same period in 2010
driven primarily by declines in our credit and mortgage products businesses due to lower client activity and adverse market conditions, partially offset by DVA gains. Equity income of
$960 million
, which remained relatively unchanged for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same period in 2010
, was impacted by lower trading revenue in equity derivatives. Sales and trading revenue included total commissions and brokerage fee revenue of
$610 million
(
$574 million
from equities and
$36 million
from FICC) for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$560 million
(
$532 million
from equities and
$28 million
from FICC) for the

FICC revenue
decreased
$3.0 billion
, or
27 percent
, to
$8.1 billion
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same period in 2010
primarily due to lower client activity and adverse market conditions impacting our mortgage products, credit, and rates and currencies businesses, partially offset by DVA gains. Equity income of
$3.3 billion
remained relatively unchanged for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same period in 2010
with an increase in commission revenue offsetting lower equity derivative trading volumes. Sales and trading revenue included total commissions and brokerage fee revenue of
$1.9 billion
(
$1.8 billion
from equities and
$111 million
from FICC) for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$1.8 billion
(
$1.7 billion
from equities and
$128 million
from FICC) for the
same period in 2010
.
In conjunction with regulatory reform measures and our initiative to optimize our balance sheet, we completely exited our proprietary trading business as of June 30, 2011, which involved trading activities in a variety of products, including stocks, bonds, currencies and commodities. There was no proprietary trading revenue for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$323 million
for the
same period in 2010
. Proprietary trading revenue was
$434 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to
$1.2 billion
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
. For additional information on restrictions on proprietary trading, see
Financial Reform Act – Limitations on Proprietary Trading
on page
68
.
Sales and trading revenue may continue to be adversely affected by lower client activity and adverse market conditions as a result of, among other things, the European sovereign debt crisis, uncertainty regarding the outcome of the evolving domestic regulatory landscape, our credit ratings and market volatility.

for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the

increased

Global Corporate Banking revenues of
$1.4 billion
and
$4.2 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
remained in line with the
same periods in 2010
. Business Lending revenues remained relatively unchanged for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
but
declined
$107 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
as growth in loan volumes was offset by lower purchase accounting accretion in the portfolio because prior periods included the impact of prepayments. Global Treasury Services revenues
increased
$57 million
and
$150 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
as growth in U.S. and non-U.S. deposit volumes was partially offset by a challenging rate environment.
Global Corporate Banking average deposits
increased
28 percent
and
25 percent
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
as balances continued to grow due to clients' excess liquidity and limited alternative investment options. Average loan and lease balances in Global Corporate Banking
increased
25 percent
and
16 percent
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the
same periods in 2010
due to expansion in commercial loans and non-U.S. trade finance portfolios driven by continuing international demand and improved domestic momentum.

Collateralized Debt Obligation Exposure
|
CDO vehicles hold diversified pools of fixed-income securities and issue multiple tranches of debt securities including commercial paper, and mezzanine and equity securities. Our CDO-related exposure can be divided into funded and unfunded super senior liquidity commitment exposure and other super senior exposure (i.e., cash positions and derivative contracts). For more information on our CDO positions, see
Note 8 – Securitizations and Other Variable Interest Entities
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
. Super senior exposure represents the most senior class of notes that are issued by the CDO vehicles and benefits from the subordination of all other securities issued by the CDO vehicles. In the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we recorded losses of
$70 million
and
$72 million
from our CDO-related exposure compared to losses of
$64 million
and
$669 million
for the
same periods in 2010
.
At
September 30, 2011
, our super senior CDO exposure before consideration of insurance, net of write-downs, was
$706 million
, comprised of
$420 million
in trading account assets and
$286 million
in available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities, compared to
$2.0 billion
, comprised of
$1.3 billion
in trading account assets and
$675 million
in AFS debt securities at
December 31, 2010
. Of our super senior CDO exposure at
September 30, 2011
,
$254 million
was hedged and
$452 million
was unhedged compared to
$772 million
hedged and
$1.2 billion
unhedged at
December 31, 2010
. At
September 30, 2011
, there were no unrealized losses recorded in accumulated OCI on super senior cash positions and retained positions from liquidated CDOs compared to
$466 million
at
December 31, 2010
. The decline was the result of sales of ABS CDOs and impairment charges recorded during the nine-month period.
Excluding amounts related to transactions with a single counterparty, which were transferred to other assets as discussed below, the following table presents our original total notional, mark-to-market receivable and credit valuation adjustment for credit default swaps and other positions with monolines. The receivable for super senior CDOs at
December 31, 2010
reflects hedge gains recorded from inception of the contracts in connection with write-downs on super senior CDOs.

Total monoline exposure, net of credit valuation adjustments,
decreased
$2.5 billion
compared to
December 31, 2010
driven by terminated monoline contracts and the reclassification of certain exposures. During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, we terminated all of our monoline contracts referencing super senior ABS CDOs. In addition, we reclassified approximately
$1.6 billion
(
$4.3 billion
gross receivable less impairment) of net monoline exposure from derivative assets to other assets, which was previously included in other guaranteed positions, because of the inherent default risk and given that these contracts no longer provide a hedge benefit, they are no longer considered derivative trading instruments. This exposure relates to a single counterparty and is recorded at fair value based on current net recovery projections. The net recovery projections take into account the present value of projected payments expected to be received from the counterparty.
With the Merrill Lynch acquisition, we acquired a loan with a current carrying value of
$3.5 billion
as of
September 30, 2011
, down from
$4.2 billion
at
December 31, 2010
primarily due to paydowns, that is collateralized by U.S. super senior ABS CDOs. The loan is recorded in
All Other
and all scheduled payments on the loan have been received to date. Events of default under the loan are customary events of default, including failure to pay interest when due and failure to pay principal at maturity. Collateral for the loan is excluded from our CDO exposure. The loan matures in September 2023.

Return on average economic capital and economic capital are non-GAAP measures. Increases in ratios resulted from higher net income and a decrease in economic capital. Economic capital decreased modestly due to improvements in interest rate risk due to changes in the composition of client balances.

GWIM
cons
ists of three primary businesses:
Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management (MLGWM); U.S. Trust, Bank of America Private Wealth Management (U.S. Trust);
and
Retirement Services
.
MLGWM’s
advisory business provides a high-touch client experience through a network of more than
16,500
financial advisors focused on clients with over $250,000 in total investable assets.
MLGWM
provides tailored solutions to meet our clients’ needs through a full set of brokerage, banking and retirement products in both domestic and international locations.
U.S. Trust
, together with
MLGWM’s
Private Banking & Investments Group, provides comprehensive wealth management solutions targeted at wealthy and ultra-wealthy clients with investable assets of more than $5 million, as well as customized solutions to meet clients’ wealth structuring, investment management, trust and banking needs, including specialty asset management services.
52
Retirement Services
partners with financial advisors to provide institutional and personal retirement solutions including investment management, administration, recordkeeping and custodial services for 401(k), pension, profit-sharing, equity award and non-qualified deferred compensation plans
. Retirement Services
also provides comprehensive investment advisory services to individuals, small to large corporations and pension plans.
GWIM
results also include the BofA Global Capital Management business which is comprised primarily of the cash and liquidity asset management business that was retained following the sale of the Columbia Management long-term asset management business in May 2010.
For the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
, revenue from
MLGWM
was
$3.4 billion
and
$10.5 billion
, up
eight percent
and
12 percent
compared to the same periods in
2010
driven by an increase in asset management fees due to higher market levels and long-term AUM inflows, as well as higher net interest income. Revenue from
U.S. Trust
was
$682 million
and
$2.1 billion
, down
one percent
for the three months due to lower net interest income offset by increased noninterest income, and up
four percent
for the nine months driven by higher asset management fees primarily from improved market levels and higher net interest income compared to the same periods in the prior year. Revenue from
Retirement Services
was
$262 million
and
$807 million
, up
eight percent
and
11 percent
compared to the same periods in the prior year driven by higher investment and brokerage services income due primarily to higher market valuations, as well as higher net interest income.
GWIM
results are impacted by the migration of clients and their related deposit and loan balances to or from
Deposits
,
CRES
and the ALM portfolio, as presented in the table below. Migration in the current year includes the additional movement of balances to Merrill Edge, which is in
Deposits
. Subsequent to the date of the migration, the associated net interest income, noninterest income and noninterest expense are recorded in the business to which the clients migrated.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
increased
$78 million
, or
29 percent
, to
$347 million
driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher noninterest expense and credit costs. Net interest income
increased
$66 million
, or
five percent
, to
$1.4 billion
driven by the $20.9 billion increase in average deposits partially offset by the impact of the current interest rate environment. Noninterest income
increased
$266 million
, or
10 percent
, to
$2.8 billion
primarily due to higher asset management fees from higher market levels and inflows into long-term AUM. Provision for credit losses
increased
$35 million
to
$162 million
driven by increased reserves in the residential mortgage portfolio. Noninterest expense
increased
$171 million
, or
five percent
, to
$3.5 billion
driven by higher revenue-related expenses and personnel costs associated with the continued build-out of the business.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
Net income
increased
$364 million
, or
36 percent
, to
$1.4 billion
driven by higher revenue as well as lower credit costs, partially offset by higher noninterest expense. Net interest income
increased
$299 million
, or
seven percent
, to
$4.6 billion
driven by the
$28.8 billion
increase
in average deposits partially offset by the impact of the current interest rate environment. Noninterest income
increased
$785 million
, or
10 percent
, to
$8.7 billion
due to higher asset management fees from higher market levels and inflows into long-term AUM as well as higher transactional revenue. The provision for credit losses
decreased
$211 million
to
$280 million
driven by improving portfolio trends in the home equity and commercial portfolios. The
increase
in noninterest expense of
$1.0 billion
was driven by the same factors as described in the three-month discussion above.
53
|
Client Balances
|
The table below presents client balances which consist of AUM, client brokerage assets, assets in custody, client deposits, and loans and leases. The
decrease
in client balances was driven by lower market levels reflected in an 11 percent drop in the S&P 500 Index at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
and outflows in liquidity AUM and brokerage assets; partially offset by inflows into long-term AUM.

$661.7 billion
and
$667.8 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$625.5 billion
and
$604.0 billion

|
Represents the economic capital assigned to
All Other
as well as the remaining portion of equity not specifically allocated to the segments. Allocated equity increased due to excess capital not being assigned to the business segments.
|
All Other
consists of two broad groupings,
Equity Investments
and
Other
.
Equity Investments
includes GPI, Strategic and other investments, and Corporate Investments.
Other
includes liquidating businesses, merger and restructuring charges, ALM functions (i.e., residential mortgage portfolio and investment securities) and related activities (i.e., economic hedges and fair value option on structured liabilities), the impact of certain allocation methodologies and any accounting hedge ineffectiveness.
Other
also includes certain residential mortgage and discontinued real estate loans that are managed by Legacy Asset Servicing within
CRES
. During the third quarter of 2011, we announced an agreement to sell our consumer card business in Canada and intention to exit our consumer card businesses in Europe. In light of these actions, the international consumer card results were moved to
All Other
from
Card Services
and prior periods have been reclassified. For additional information on the other activities included in
All Other

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
All Other
reported
net income
of
$4.7 billion
compared to
net income
of
$358 million
due to higher revenue and lower noninterest expense partially offset by higher provision for credit losses. Revenue
increased
$5.0 billion
primarily due to positive fair value adjustments of
$4.5 billion
on structured liabilities related to significant widening of our credit spreads in the quarter, compared to negative fair value adjustments of
$190 million
in the
same period in 2010
. Equity investment income
increased
by
$1.1 billion
and included a gain of
$3.6 billion
on the sale of approximately half of our investment in CCB offset by losses in GPI of
$1.6 billion
and an impairment write-down of
$630 million
on our merchant services joint venture. Net interest income
decreased
primarily due to hedge ineffectiveness. See
Note 4 – Derivatives
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for additional information. The
decrease
of
$306 million
in noninterest expense was primarily the result of a
$245 million
decrease
in merger and restructuring charges. In addition, the year-ago period included a $592 million charge related to PPI claims in the U.K. in our international consumer card business.
Provision for credit losses
increased
$
933 million
to $
1.4 billion
driven
primarily by a slower pace of improvement in the residential mo
rtgage portfolio and with projected losses in the non-U.S. credit card portfolio.
The income tax benefit was $
500 million
compared to a benefit of $
523 million
for the
same period in 2010
. The current-period tax benefit reflects the impact of the valuation allowance reduction, a benefit for capital loss deferred tax assets recognized in connection with the liquidation of certain subsidiaries and recurring tax preference items such as tax-exempt income and affordable housing credits.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Compared to
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
All Other
reported
net income
of
$3.6 billion
compared to
net income
of
$908 million
due to the same factors as described above in the three-month period including positive fair value adjustments of
$4.1 billion
on structured liabilities compared to positive fair value adjustments of
$1.2 billion
in the
same period in 2010
. Equity investment income
increased
by
$880 million
as a result of the CCB gain partially offset by
$1.1 billion
of impairment write-downs on our merchant services joint venture and a
decrease
of
$1.3 billion
in GPI income, largely as a result of a gain on the sale of a strategic equity investment during the
same period in 2010
.
Provision for credit losses
increased
$
1.2 billion
to
$5.4 billion
driven by reserve additions to the Countrywide PCI discontinued real estate and residential mortgage portfolios and higher credit costs related to the non-PCI residential mortgage portfolio due to the impact of refreshed valuations of underlying collateral.
The income tax benefit was $
1.2 billion
compared to a benefit of $
1.6 billion
for the
same period in 2010
driven by the same factors as described in the
three
-month discussion above, as well as by the effect of those net tax benefits on the level of the year-to-date pre-tax income.

Equity investments included in

decreased
$19.5 billion
during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
. The decrease is consistent with our continued efforts to reduce non-core assets including reducing both higher risk-weighted assets and assets currently deducted, or expected to be deducted under Basel III, from regulatory capital. For more information, see Capital Management – Regulatory Capital Changes on page

.
GPI is comprised of a diversified portfolio of investments in private equity, real estate and other alternative investments. These investments are made either directly in a company or held through a fund with related income recorded in equity investment income. GPI had unfunded equity commitments of $878 million and $1.4 billion at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
related to certain of these investments. The
decrease
of
$4.7 billion
in GPI for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
was due to the sale of assets within certain GPI portfolios.
Strategic and other investments included in
All Other
decreased
$14.8 billion
during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
. The decrease was primarily the result of our sale of investments in CCB and Blackrock during 2011. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we sold
13.1 billion
common shares, or approximately half of our investment in CCB in a private transaction with a group of investors. In connection with the sale, we recorded a gain of
$3.6 billion
. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, we owned
12.5 billion
and
25.6 billion
shares and our investment had a fair value of
$7.7 billion
and
$20.8 billion
. In the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we recorded a
$836 million
dividend on our investment in CCB compared to
$535 million
in the
same period in 2010
. Also in the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we sold our investment in BlackRock, resulting in a
$377 million
gain and recorded
$1.1 billion
of impairment write-downs on our merchant services joint venture, including
$630 million
in the
three months ended September 30, 2011
.
After the transfer of the merchant services joint venture to
Global Commercial Banking
during 2011, the impairment write-downs were recorded in
All Other
. The impairment write-downs were based on the ongo
ing financial performance of the joint venture and updated forecasts of its long-term financial performance. During 2010, the $2.7 billion Corporate Investmen
ts equity securities portfolio, which consisted of highly liquid publicly-traded equity securities, was sold resulting in a loss of $331 million.

We have contractual obligations to make future payments on debt and lease agreements. Additionally, in the normal course of business, we enter into a number of off-balance sheet commitments including commitments to extend credit such as loan commitments, standby letters of credit (SBLCs) and commercial letters of credit to meet the financing needs of our customers. For additional information on our obligations and commitments, see

Representations and Warranties
|
We securitize first-lien residential mortgage loans generally in the form of MBS guaranteed by the GSEs or by Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) in the case of the FHA-insured, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) -guaranteed and Rural Housing Service-guaranteed mortgage loans. In addition, in prior years, legacy companies and certain subsidiaries sold pools of first-lien residential mortgage loans and home equity loans as private-label securitizations (in certain of these securitizations, monolines or financial guarantee providers insured all or some of the securities issued), or in the form of whole loans. In connection with these transactions, we or our subsidiaries or legacy companies make or have made various representations and warranties. Breaches of these representations and warranties may result in the requirement to repurchase mortgage loans or to otherwise make whole or provide other remedies to the GSEs, HUD with respect to FHA-insured loans, VA, whole-loan buyers, securitization trusts, monoline insurers or other financial guarantors (collectively, repurchases). In such cases, we would be exposed to any credit loss on the repurchased mortgage loans after accounting for any mortgage insurance or mortgage guaranty payments that we may receive.
Subject to the requirements and limitations of the applicable sales and securitization agreements, these representations and warranties can be enforced by the GSEs, HUD, VA, the whole-loan buyer, the securitization trustee or others as governed by the applicable agreement or, in certain first-lien and home equity securitizations where monoline insurers or other financial guarantee providers have insured all or some of the securities issued, by the monoline insurer or other financial guarantor at any time. In the case of loans sold to parties other than the GSEs or GNMA, the contractual liability to repurchase typically arises only if there is a breach of the representations and warranties that materially and adversely affects the interest of the investor, or investors, in the loan, or of the monoline insurer or other financial guarantor (as applicable). Contracts with the GSEs do not contain an equivalent requirement, while GNMA generally limits repurchases to loans that are not insured or guaranteed as required.

Representations and Warranties Bulk Settlement Actions
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010, we have settled, or entered into agreements to settle, certain bulk representations and warranties claims with a trustee for certain legacy Countrywide private-label securitization trusts (the BNY Mellon Settlement), a monoline insurer (the Assured Guaranty Settlement) and with each of the GSEs (the GSE Agreements). We have contested, and will continue to vigorously contest any request for repurchase when we conclude that a valid basis for repurchase does not exist. However, in an effort to resolve these legacy mortgage-related issues, we have reached bulk settlements, or agreements for bulk settlements, including settlement amounts which have been material, with the above referenced counterparties in lieu of a loan-by-loan review process. We may reach other settlements in the future if opportunities arise on terms we believe to be advantageous. For a summary of the significant settlement actions we have taken beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010 and the related impact on the representations and warranties provision and liability see
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
. As indicated in
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
and
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
, these bulk settlements generally do not cover all transactions with the relevant counterparties or all potential claims that may arise, including in some instances securities law, fraud and servicing claims, and our liability in connection with the transactions and claims not covered by these settlements could be material.

Recent Developments Related to the BNY Mellon Settlement
The BNY Mellon Settlement is subject to final court approval and certain other conditions. Under an order entered by the court in connection with the BNY Mellon Settlement, potentially interested persons had the opportunity to give notice of intent to object to the BNY Mellon Settlement (including on the basis that more information was needed) until
August 30, 2011
. Approximately
44
groups or entities appeared prior to the deadline. Certain of these groups or entities filed notices of intent to object, made motions to intervene, or both filed notices of intent to object and made motions to intervene. The parties filing motions to intervene include the Attorneys General of the states of New York and Delaware, the FDIC and the Federal Housing Finance Agency. These motions have not yet been ruled on by the court. Certain of the motions to intervene and/or notices of intent to object allege various purported bases for opposition to the settlement, including challenges to the nature of the court proceeding and the lack of an opt-out mechanism, alleged conflicts of interest on the part of the institutional investor group and/or the Trustee, the inadequacy of the settlement amount and the method of allocating the settlement amount among the Covered Trusts, while other motions do not make substantive objections but state that they need more information about the settlement. A number of investors opposed to the settlement removed the proceeding to federal court. On
October 19, 2011
, the federal court denied BNY Mellon's motion to remand the proceeding to state court, and BNY Mellon, as well as investors that have intervened in support of the BNY Mellon Settlement, have petitioned to appeal the denial of this motion.
It is not currently possible to predict how many of the parties who have appeared in the court proceeding will ultimately object to the BNY Mellon Settlement, whether the objections will prevent receipt of final court approval or the ultimate outcome of the court approval process, which can include appeals and could take a substantial period of time. In particular, the conduct of discovery and the resolution of the objections to the settlement and any appeals could also take a substantial period of time and these factors, along with the recent removal of the proceedings to federal court, could materially delay the timing of final court approval. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict when the court approval process will be completed.
If final court approval is not obtained by
December 31, 2015
, we and legacy Countrywide may withdraw from the BNY Mellon Settlement, if the Trustee consents. The BNY Mellon Settlement also provides that if Covered Trusts representing unpaid principal balance exceeding a specified amount are excluded from the final BNY Mellon Settlement, based on investor objections or otherwise, we and legacy Countrywide have the option to withdraw from the BNY Mellon Settlement pursuant to the terms of the BNY Mellon Settlement agreement.
There can be no assurance that final court approval of the BNY Mellon Settlement will be obtained, that all conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement will be satisfied or, if certain conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement permitting withdrawal are met, that we and legacy Countrywide will not determine to withdraw from the settlement. If final court approval is not obtained or if we and legacy Countrywide determine to withdraw from the BNY Mellon Settlement in accordance with its terms, our future representations and warranties losses could be substantially different than existing accruals and the estimated range of possible loss over existing accruals described under
Experience with Investors Other than Government-sponsored Enterprises

Item 1A. Risk Factors
of the Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
Unresolved Claims Status
At
September 30, 2011
, our total unresolved repurchase claims were approximately
$11.7 billion
compared to
$10.7 billion
at
December 31, 2010
. These repurchase claims include
$1.7 billion
in demands from investors in the Covered Trusts received in the third quarter of 2010 but otherwise do not include any repurchase claims related to the Covered Trusts. The increase in unresolved claims is primarily attributable to
$10.9 billion
in new repurchase claims submitted by the GSEs for both legacy Countrywide originations not covered by the GSE Agreements and legacy Bank of America originations, and
$711 million
in repurchase claims received from trustees in non-GSE transactions. The high level of new claims was partially offset by the resolution of claims with the GSEs and the resolution of certain monoline claims through the Assured Guaranty Settlement. Generally the volume of unresolved repurchase claims from the FHA and VA for loans in GNMA-guaranteed securities is not significant because the requests are limited in number and are typically resolved quickly.

Representations and Warranties Liability
The liability for representations and warranties and corporate guarantees is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and the related provision is included in mortgage banking income (loss). The methodology used to estimate the liability for representations and warranties is a function of the representations and warranties given and considers a variety of factors, which include depending on the counterparty, actual defaults, estimated future defaults, historical loss experience, estimated home prices, other economic conditions, estimated probability that a repurchase claim will be received, consideration of whether presentation thresholds will be met, number of payments made by the borrower prior to default and estimated probability that a loan will be required to be repurchased as well as other relevant facts and circumstances, such as bulk settlements and identity of the counterparty or type of
59
counterparty, as we believe appropriate. In the case of private-label securitizations, our estimate considers implied repurchase experience based on the BNY Mellon Settlement, adjusted to reflect differences between the Covered Trusts and the remainder of the population of private-label securitizations, and assumes that the conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement will be met. The estimate of the liability for representations and warranties is based on currently available information, significant judgment and a number of factors, including those set forth above, that are subject to change. Changes to any one of these factors could significantly impact the estimate of the liability and could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations for any particular period.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the liability was
$16.3 billion
and
$5.4 billion
. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the provision for representations and warranties and corporate guarantees was
$278 million
and
$15.3 billion
compared to
$872 million
and
$2.6 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. Of the
$15.3 billion
provision recorded in the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
,
$8.6 billion
was attributable to the BNY Mellon Settlement and
$6.7 billion
was attributable to other non-GSE exposures, and to a lesser extent, GSE exposures. The BNY Mellon Settlement led to the determination that we had sufficient experience to record a liability related to our exposure on certain other private-label securitizations. This determination, combined with changes in our experience with the behavior of certain counterparties, including the GSEs was the driver of this additional provision in the first nine months of 2011. The provision in the
three months ended September 30, 2011
was related primarily to the GSEs and is based upon results of our ongoing evaluation of the GSE behavior, which is continually evolving and considers, among other things, increased levels of claims from one of the GSEs in recent periods relative to historical claims. Additionally, a significant factor in the estimate of the liability for losses is repurchase rates, which increased in the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
. Future provisions associated with obligations under representations and warranties made to the GSEs may be materially impacted if actual results are different from our assumptions as discussed below.
Estimated Range of Possible Loss
Government-sponsored Enterprises
Our estimated liability for obligations under representations and warranties with respect to the GSEs is necessarily dependent on, and limited by, our historical claims experience with the GSEs and reflects current developments, including the GSEs' current interpretations of the GSE Agreements and recent GSE behavior, projections of future defaults as well as certain other assumptions regarding economic conditions, home prices and other factors. The behavior of the GSEs is continually evolving which impacts our estimated repurchase rates and liability. Notably, in recent periods we have been experiencing elevated levels of new claims, including claims on loans on which borrowers have made a significant number of payments (e.g., at least 25 payments) or on loans on which a substantial period has elapsed since default, in each case, in numbers that were not expected based on historical experience, and the criteria on which the GSEs are ultimately willing to resolve claims have changed in ways that are unfavorable to us. In addition, the recent FNMA announcement regarding mortgage insurance rescissions, cancellations and claim denials, including a purported ban on bulk settlements with mortgage insurers that provide for loss sharing in lieu of rescission, could result in increased repurchase requests from FNMA that exceed the repurchase requests contemplated by our estimated liability. Accordingly, future provisions associated with obligations under representations and warranties made to the GSEs may be materially impacted if actual results are different from our assumptions regarding projected future defaults, estimated home prices, other economic conditions and other factors, including the behavior of the GSEs and estimated repurchase rates. Repurchase requests and resolution processes with the GSEs have become increasingly inconsistent with our interpretation of our contractual obligations. We continue to evaluate our relationship with the GSEs. We intend to continue to closely monitor these changing behaviors and to repurchase loans to the extent required under the contracts and standards that govern our relationships with the GSEs.
As the GSEs' behavior is continually evolving, we are not able to anticipate changes in the behavior of the GSEs from our past experiences. Therefore, it is not possible to reasonably estimate a possible loss or range of possible loss with respect to any such potential impact in excess of current accruals on future GSE provisions. See
Complex Accounting Estimates – Representations and Warranties
on page
138
for information related to the sensitivity of the assumptions used to estimate our liability for obligations under representations and warranties.
Non-Government-sponsored Enterprises
The population of private-label securitizations included in the BNY Mellon Settlement encompasses almost all legacy Countrywide first-lien private-label securitizations including loans originated principally in the
2004
through
2008
vintage. For the remainder of the population of private-label securitizations, we believe it is probable that other claimants may come forward with claims that meet the requirements of the terms of the securitizations. We have seen an increased trend in requests for loan files from private-label securitization trustees and an increase in repurchase claims from private-label securitization trustees that meet the required standards. We believe that the provisions recorded in connection with the BNY Mellon Settlement and the additional non-GSE representations and warranties provisions recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, have provided for a substantial portion of our non-GSE repurchase claims. However, it is reasonably possible that future representations and warranties losses may occur in excess of the amounts recorded for these exposures. In addition, we have not recorded any representations and warranties liability for certain potential monoline
60
exposures and certain potential whole loan and other private-label securitization exposures. We currently estimate that the range of possible loss related to non-GSE representations and warranties exposure as of
September 30, 2011
could be up to
$5 billion
over existing accruals. This estimate of the range of possible loss for non-GSE representations and warranties does not represent a probable loss, is based on currently available information, significant judgment, and a number of assumptions, including those set forth below, that are subject to change.
The methodology used to estimate the non-GSE representations and warranties liability and the corresponding range of possible loss considers a variety of factors including our experience related to actual defaults, projected future defaults, historical loss experience, estimated home prices and other economic conditions. Among the factors that impact the non-GSE representations and warranties liability and the corresponding estimated range of possible loss are: (1) contractual loss causation requirements, (2) the representations and warranties provided, and (3) the requirement to meet certain presentation thresholds. The first factor is based on our belief that a non-GSE contractual liability to repurchase a loan generally arises only if the counterparties prove there is a breach of representations and warranties that materially and adversely affects the interest of the investor or all investors, or the monoline insurer (as applicable), in a securitization trust and, accordingly, we believe that the repurchase claimants must prove that the alleged representations and warranties breach was the cause of the loss. The second factor is related to the fact that non-GSE securitizations include different types of representations and warranties than those provided to the GSEs. We believe the non-GSE securitizations' representations and warranties are less rigorous and actionable than the explicit provisions of the comparable agreements with the GSEs without regard to any variations that may have arisen as a result of dealings with the GSEs. The third factor is related to the fact that certain presentation thresholds need to be met in order for any repurchase claim to be asserted under the non-GSE agreements. A securitization trustee may investigate or demand repurchase on its own action, and most agreements contain a threshold, for example
25
percent of the voting rights per trust, that allows investors to declare a servicing event of default under certain circumstances or to request certain action, such as requesting loan files, that the trustee may choose to accept and follow, exempt from liability, provided the trustee is acting in good faith. If there is an uncured servicing event of default, and the trustee fails to bring suit during a
60
-day period, then, under most agreements, investors may file suit. In addition to this, most agreements also allow investors to direct the securitization trustee to investigate loan files or demand the repurchase of loans, if security holders hold a specified percentage, for example,
25
percent, of the voting rights of each tranche of the outstanding securities.
Although we continue to believe that presentation thresholds are a factor in the determination of probable loss, given the BNY Mellon Settlement, the upper end of the estimated range of possible loss assumes that the presentation threshold can be met for all of the non-GSE securitization transactions. In addition, in the case of private-label securitizations, our estimate considers implied repurchase experience based on the BNY Mellon Settlement, adjusted to reflect differences between the Covered Trusts and the remainder of the population of private-label securitizations, and assumes that the conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement will be met. For additional information about the methodology used to estimate the non-GSE representations and warranties liability and the corresponding range of possible loss, see
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
Future provisions and/or ranges of possible loss for non-GSE representations and warranties may be significantly impacted if actual results are different from our assumptions in our predictive models, including, without limitation, those regarding ultimate resolution of the BNY Mellon Settlement, estimated repurchase rates, economic conditions, home prices, consumer and counterparty behavior, and a variety of judgmental factors. Adverse developments with respect to one or more of the assumptions underlying the liability for representations and warranties and the corresponding estimated range of possible loss could result in significant increases to future provisions and this estimated range of possible loss. For example, if courts were to disagree with our interpretation that the underlying agreements require a claimant to prove that the representations and warranties breach was the cause of the loss, it could significantly impact this estimated range of possible loss. For additional information, see
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
. Additionally, if recent court rulings related to monoline litigation, including one related to us, that have allowed sampling of loan files instead of a loan-by-loan review to determine if a representations and warranties breach has occurred are followed generally by the courts, private-label securitization investors may view litigation as a more attractive alternative as compared to a loan-by-loan review. Finally, although we believe that the representations and warranties typically given in non-GSE transactions are less rigorous and actionable than those given in GSE transactions, we do not have significant loan-level experience to measure the impact of these differences on the probability that a loan will be required to be repurchased.
The liability for obligations under representations and warranties with respect to GSE and non-GSE exposures and the corresponding estimated range of possible loss for non-GSE representations and warranties exposures do not include any losses related to litigation matters disclosed in
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
, nor do they include any separate foreclosure costs and related costs, assessments and compensatory fees or any possible losses related to potential claims for breaches of performance of servicing obligations, potential securities law or fraud claims or potential indemnity or other claims against us. We are not able to reasonably estimate the amount of any possible loss with respect to any such servicing, securities law (except to the extent reflected in the aggregate range of possible loss for litigation and regulatory matters disclosed in
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
), fraud or other claims against us; however, such loss could be material.
61
Government-sponsored Enterprises Experience
Our current repurchase claims experience with the GSEs is predominantly concentrated in the
2004
through
2008
origination vintages where we believe that our exposure to representations and warranties liability is most significant. Our repurchase claims experience related to loans originated prior to
2004
has not been significant and we believe that the changes made to our operations and underwriting policies have reduced our exposure related to loans originated after
2008
. The cumulative repurchase claims for 2007 originations exceed all other vintages as the volume of loans originated in 2007 was significantly higher than any other vintage which, together with the high delinquency level in this vintage, contributes to the high level of repurchase claims compared to the other vintages.
Bank of America and legacy Countrywide sold approximately
$1.1 trillion
of loans originated from
2004
through
2008
to the GSEs. As of
September 30, 2011
,
11 percent
of the loans in these vintages have defaulted or are 180 days or more past due (severely delinquent). At least 25 payments have been made on approximately
64 percent
of severely delinquent or defaulted loans. Through
September 30, 2011
, we have received
$30.9 billion
in repurchase claims associated with these vintages, representing approximately
three percent
of the loans sold to the GSEs in these vintages. Including the agreement reached with FNMA on
December 31, 2010
, we have resolved
$25.5 billion
of these claims with a net loss experience of approximately
30 percent
. The claims resolved and the loss rate do not include
$839 million
in claims extinguished as a result of the agreement with FHLMC due to the global nature of the agreement and, specifically, the absence of a formal apportionment of the agreement amount between current and future claims. Our collateral loss severity rate on approved repurchases has averaged approximately
45 to 55
percent.
Table
14
highlights our experience with the GSEs related to loans originated from
2004
through
2008
. The increase in unresolved claims is primarily attributable to
$10.9 billion
in new repurchase claims submitted by the GSEs for both legacy Countrywide originations not covered by the GSE Agreements and legacy Bank of America originations, and
$711 million
in repurchase claims received from trustees in non-GSE transactions. The high level of new claims was partially offset by the resolution of claims with the GSEs and the resolution of certain monoline claims through the Assured Guaranty Settlement.

Our repurchase experience with the GSEs continues to evolve and their repurchase requests and resolution processes have become increasingly inconsistent with our interpretation of our contractual obligations. Notably, in recent periods we have been experiencing elevated levels of new claims, including claims on loans on which borrowers have made a significant number of payments (e.g., at least
25
payments) or on loans which had defaulted more than 18 months prior to the repurchase request, in each case, in numbers that were not expected based on historical experience, and the criteria by which the GSEs are ultimately willing to resolve claims have changed in ways that are unfavorable to us. We intend to continue to closely monitor and update our processes related to these changing behaviors and intend to repurchase loans to the extent required under the contracts and standards that govern our relationships with the GSEs.

FNMA recently issued an announcement requiring servicers to report, effective
October 1, 2011
, all mortgage insurance rescissions, cancellations and claim denials with respect to loans sold to FNMA. The announcement also confirmed FNMA's view of its position that a mortgage insurance company's issuance of a rescission, cancellation notice or claim denial constitutes a breach of the lender's representations and warranties and permits FNMA to require the lender to repurchase the mortgage loan or promptly remit a make-whole payment covering FNMA's loss even if the lender is contesting the mortgage insurer's rescission cancellation or claim denial. The announcement also included a ban on bulk settlements with mortgage insurers that provide for loss sharing in lieu of rescission. Through
June 30, 2012
, lenders have 90 days to appeal FNMA's repurchase request and 30 days (or such other time frame specified by FNMA) to appeal after that date. To be successful in its appeal, a lender must provide documentation confirming reinstatement or continuation of coverage according to the FNMA announcement. This announcement could result in more repurchase requests from FNMA than the assumptions in our estimated liability contemplate. We also expect that in many cases (particularly in the context of litigation), we will not be able to resolve rescissions, cancellations or claim denials with the mortgage insurance companies before the expiration of the appeal period allowed by FNMA. We have informed FNMA that we do not believe that the new policy is valid under the relevant contracts, and that we do not intend to repurchase loans under the terms set forth in the new policy. Accordingly, our pipeline of unresolved repurchase claims may increase and, if we are required to abide by the terms of the new policy, our representations and warranties liability may increase.
Experience with Investors Other than Government-sponsored Enterprises
In prior years, legacy companies and certain subsidiaries have sold pools of first-lien mortgage loans and home equity loans as private-label securitizations or in the form of whole loans. As detailed in Table
15
, legacy companies and certain subsidiaries sold loans originated from
2004
through
2008
with an original principal balance of
$963 billion
to investors other than GSEs, of which approximately
$499 billion
in principal has been paid and
$234 billion
has defaulted or are severely delinquent at
September 30, 2011
.
As it relates to private-label securitizations, a contractual liability to repurchase mortgage loans generally arises only if counterparties prove there is a breach of the representations and warranties that materially and adversely affects the interest of the investor or all investors in a securitization trust or of the monoline insurer or other financial guarantor (as applicable). We believe that the longer a loan performs, the less likely it is that an alleged representations and warranties breach had a material impact on the loan's performance or that a breach even exists. Because the majority of the borrowers in this population would have made a significant number of payments if they are not yet 180 days or more past due, we believe that the principal balance at the greatest risk for repurchase claims in this population of private-label securitization investors is a combination of loans that have already defaulted and those that are currently severely delinquent. Additionally, the obligation to repurchase loans also requires that counterparties have the contractual right to demand repurchase of the loans (presentation thresholds). While we believe the agreements for private-label securitizations generally contain less rigorous representations and warranties and place higher burdens on investors seeking repurchases than the explicit provisions of the comparable agreements with the GSEs
without regard to any variations that may have arisen as a result of dealings with the GSEs, the agreements generally include a representation that underwriting practices were prudent and customary.
Any amounts paid related to repurchase claims from a monoline insurer are paid to the securitization trust and are applied in accordance with the terms of the governing securitization documents, which may include use by the securitization trust to repay any outstanding monoline advances or reduce future advances from the monolines. To the extent that a monoline has not advanced funds or does not anticipate that it will be required to advance funds to the securitization trust, the likelihood of receiving a repurchase claim from a monoline may be reduced as the monoline would receive limited or no benefit from the payment of repurchase claims. Moreover, some monolines are not currently performing their obligations under the financial guaranty policies they issued which may, in certain circumstances, impact their ability to present repurchase claims, although in those circumstances, investors may be able to bring claims if contractual thresholds are met.

Table
15
details the population of loans originated between 2004 and 2008 and the population of loans sold as whole loans or in non-agency securitizations by entity and product together with the defaulted and severely delinquent loans stratified by the number of payments the borrower made prior to default or becoming severely delinquent at
September 30, 2011
. As shown in Table
15
, at least 25 payments have been made on approximately
62 percent
of the defaulted and severely delinquent loans. We believe many of the defaults observed in these securitizations have been, and continue to be, driven by external factors like the substantial depreciation in home prices, persistently high unemployment and other negative economic trends, diminishing the likelihood that any loan defect (assuming one exists at all) was the cause of a loan’s default. As of
September 30, 2011
, approximately
24 percent
of the loans sold to non-GSEs that were originated between
2004
and
2008
have defaulted or are severely delinquent. Of the original principal balance for Countrywide,
$409 billion
is included in the BNY Mellon Settlement.

Monoline Insurers
Legacy companies sold
$184.5 billion
of loans originated between
2004
and
2008
into monoline-insured securitizations, which are included in Table
15
, including
$103.9 billion
of first-lien mortgages and
$80.6 billion
of second-lien mortgages. Of these balances,
$44.6 billion
of the first-lien mortgages and
$50.2 billion
of the second-lien mortgages have been paid in full and
$34.9 billion
of the first-lien mortgages and
$16.2 billion
of the second-lien mortgages have defaulted or are severely delinquent at
September 30, 2011
. At least 25 payments have been made on approximately
56
percent of the defaulted and severely delinquent loans. Of the first-lien mortgages sold,
$39.1 billion
, or
38
percent, were sold as whole loans to other institutions which subsequently included these loans with those of other originators in private-label securitization transactions in which the monolines typically insured one or more securities. Through
September 30, 2011
, we have received
$6.0 billion
of representations and warranties claims related to the monoline-insured transactions. Of these repurchase claims,
$2.0 billion
were resolved through the Assured Guaranty Settlement,
$809 million
were resolved through repurchase or indemnification with losses of
$705 million
and
$126 million
were rescinded by the investor or paid in full. The majority of these resolved claims related to second-lien mortgages.
64
Unresolved Monoline Repurchase Claims
At
September 30, 2011
, for loans originated between
2004
and
2008
, the unpaid principal balance of loans related to unresolved monoline repurchase claims was
$3.0 billion
, substantially all of which we have reviewed and declined to repurchase based on an assessment of whether a material breach exists. At
September 30, 2011
, the unpaid principal balance of loans for which the monolines had requested loan files for review but for which no repurchase claim had been received was
$6.1 billion
, excluding loans that had been paid in full and file requests for loans included in the trusts settled with Assured Guaranty. There will likely be additional requests for loan files in the future leading to repurchase claims.
We have had limited experience with the monoline insurers, other than Assured Guaranty, in the repurchase process as each of these monoline insurers has instituted litigation against legacy Countrywide and/or Bank of America, which limits our ability to enter into constructive dialogue with these monolines to resolve the open claims. It is not possible at this time to reasonably estimate probable future repurchase obligations with respect to those monolines with whom we have limited repurchase experience and, therefore, no representations and warranties liability has been recorded in connection with these monolines, other than a liability for repurchase claims where we have determined that there are valid loan defects. Our estimated range of possible loss related to non-GSE representations and warranties exposure as of
September 30, 2011
includes possible losses related to these monoline insurers.
Whole Loans and Private-label Securitizations
Legacy entities, and to a lesser extent Bank of America, sold whole loans to investors, and the majority of the sales were executed through private-label securitizations, including third-party sponsored transactions. The loans sold with total principal balance of
$778.2 billion
, included in Table
15
, were originated between
2004
and
2008
, of which
$403.9 billion
have been paid in full and
$182.9 billion
are defaulted or severely delinquent at
September 30, 2011
. In connection with these transactions, we provided representations and warranties, and the whole-loan investors may retain those rights even when the whole loans were aggregated with other collateral into private-label securitizations sponsored by the whole-loan investors. At least 25 payments have been made on approximately
63
percent of the defaulted and severely delinquent loans. We have received approximately
$9.4 billion
of representations and warranties claims from whole-loan investors and private-label securitization investors related to these vintages, including
$6.1 billion
from whole-loan investors,
$819 million
from one private-label securitization counterparty which were submitted prior to 2008,
$840 million
from private-label securitization trustees and
$1.7 billion
in claims from private-label securitization investors in the Covered Trusts received in the third quarter of 2010. In 2011 we have seen an increase in repurchase claims from private-label securitization trustees. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we have received
$325 million
and
$711 million
of such repurchase claims. In addition, there has been an increase in requests for loan files from private-label securitization trustees, and we believe it is likely that these requests will lead to an increase in repurchase claims from private-label securitization trustees that have met the required standards.
We have resolved
$5.6 billion
of the claims received from whole-loan investors and private-label securitization investors with losses of
$1.2 billion
. Approximately
$2.4 billion
of these claims were resolved through repurchase or indemnification and
$3.2 billion
were rescinded by the investor. Claims outstanding related to these vintages totaled
$3.8 billion
, including
$3.0 billion
that have been reviewed where it is believed a valid defect has not been identified which would constitute an actionable breach of representations and warranties and
$787 million
that are in the process of review.
The majority of the claims that we have received outside of the GSEs and monolines are from third-party whole-loan investors. However, the amount of claims received from private-label securitization trustees has been increasing. Certain whole-loan investors have engaged with us in a consistent repurchase process and we have used that experience to record a liability related to existing and future claims from such counterparties. The BNY Mellon Settlement led to the determination in the second quarter of 2011 that we had sufficient experience to record a liability related to our exposure on certain other private-label securitizations. However, the BNY Mellon Settlement did not provide sufficient experience related to certain private-label securitizations sponsored by third-party whole-loan investors. As it relates to certain private-label securitizations sponsored by third-party whole-loan investors and certain other whole loan sales, it is not possible to determine whether a loss has occurred or is probable and, therefore, no representations and warranties liability has been recorded in connection with these transactions. Our estimated range of possible loss related to non-GSE representations and warranties exposure as of
September 30, 2011
includes possible losses related to these whole loan sales and private-label securitizations sponsored by third-party whole-loan investors.
Private-label securitization investors generally do not have the contractual right to demand repurchase of loans directly or the right to access loan files. The inclusion of the
$1.7 billion
in outstanding claims noted on page
65
does not mean that we believe these claims have satisfied the contractual thresholds required for these investors to direct the securitization trustee to take action or that these claims are otherwise procedurally or substantively valid. One of these claimants has filed litigation against us relating to certain of these claims; the claims in this litigation would be extinguished if there is final court approval of the BNY Mellon Settlement. Additionally, certain private-label securitizations are insured by the monoline insurers, which are not reflected in these amounts regarding whole loan sales and private-label securitizations.

Other Mortgage-related Matters
|
Servicing Matters and Foreclosure Processes
We service a large portion of the loans we or our subsidiaries have securitized and also service loans on behalf of third-party securitization vehicles and other investors. Servicing agreements with the GSEs generally provide the GSEs with broader rights relative to the servicer than are found in servicing agreements with private investors. For example, each GSE typically has the right to demand that the servicer repurchase loans that breach the seller's representations and warranties made in connection with the initial sale of the loans even if the servicer was not the seller. The GSEs also reserve the contractual right to demand indemnification or loan repurchase for certain servicing breaches. In addition, the GSEs' first mortgage seller/servicer guides provide for timelines to resolve delinquent loans through workout efforts or liquidation, if necessary, and purport to require the imposition of “compensatory” fees if those deadlines are not satisfied except for reasons beyond the control of the servicer. In addition, many non-agency RMBS and whole-loan servicing agreements require the servicer to indemnify the trustee or other investor for or against failures by the servicer to perform its servicing obligations or acts or omissions that involve willful malfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of, or reckless disregard of, the servicer’s duties. Although it is not possible to reasonably estimate our liability with respect to potential servicing-related claims, the amount of such liability could be material.
In
October 2010
, we voluntarily stopped taking residential mortgage foreclosure proceedings to judgment in states where foreclosure requires a court order following a legal proceeding (judicial states) and stopped foreclosure sales in all states in order to complete an assessment of related business processes. We have resumed foreclosure sales in all non-judicial states; however, while we have recently resumed foreclosure proceedings in nearly all judicial states, our progress on foreclosure sales in judicial states has been significantly slower than in non-judicial states. We have also not resumed foreclosure sales for certain types of customers, including those in bankruptcy and those with FHA-insured loans, although we have resumed foreclosure proceedings with respect to certain customers in bankruptcy and with FHA-insured loans. The implementation of changes in procedures and controls, including loss mitigation procedures related to our ability to recover on FHA insurance-related claims, as well as governmental, regulatory and judicial actions, may result in continuing delays in foreclosure proceedings and foreclosure sales, as well as creating obstacles to the collection of certain fees and expenses, in both judicial and non-judicial foreclosures.
On
April 13, 2011
, we entered into a consent order with the Federal Reserve and BANA entered into a consent order with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to address the regulators' concerns about residential mortgage servicing practices and foreclosure processes. Also, on this date, the other 13 largest mortgage servicers in the U.S. separately entered into consent orders with their respective federal bank regulators related to residential mortgage servicing practices and foreclosure processes. The orders resulted from an interagency horizontal review conducted by federal bank regulators of major residential mortgage servicers. While federal bank regulators found that loans foreclosed upon had been generally considered for other alternatives (such as loan modifications), were seriously delinquent, and that servicers could support their standing to foreclose, several areas for process improvement requiring timely and comprehensive remediation across the industry were also identified. We identified most of these areas for process improvement after our own review in late 2010 and continue to make significant progress in these areas. The federal bank regulator consent orders with the mortgage servicers do not assess civil monetary penalties. However, the consent orders do not preclude the assertion of civil monetary penalties and a federal bank regulator has stated publicly that it believes monetary penalties are appropriate.
The consent order with the OCC requires servicers to make several enhancements to their servicing operations, including implementation of a single point of contact model for borrowers throughout the loss mitigation and foreclosure processes, adoption of measures designed to ensure that foreclosure activity is halted once a borrower has been approved for a modification unless the borrower fails to make payments under the modified loan and implementation of enhanced controls over third-party vendors that provide default servicing support services. In addition, the consent order required that servicers retain an independent consultant, approved by the OCC, in order to conduct a review of all foreclosure actions pending, or foreclosure sales that occurred, between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2010 and submit a plan to the OCC to remediate all financial injury to borrowers caused by any deficiencies identified through the review. The OCC accepted the independent consultant that we retained to conduct the foreclosure review and approved our action plan related to the review. Through the foreclosure review, which began in October 2011, eligible borrowers will have the opportunity to request a review by the independent consultant beginning in November 2011. Because the review process will be available to a large number of potentially eligible borrowers and will involve an examination of many details and documents, each review could take several months to complete. It is not yet possible to determine how many borrowers will request a review, how many borrowers will meet the eligibility requirements or how much in compensation might ultimately be paid to eligible borrowers.
In addition, law enforcement authorities in all 50 states and the DOJ and other federal agencies continue to investigate alleged irregularities in the foreclosure practices of residential mortgage servicers, including us. Authorities have publicly stated that the scope of the investigations extends beyond foreclosure documentation practices to mortgage origination, loan modification and loss mitigation practices, including compliance with HUD requirements related to FHA-insured loans. We continue to cooperate with these investigations and are dedicating significant resources to addressing these issues. We and the other largest mortgage originators and servicers continue
66
to engage in ongoing negotiations regarding these matters with law enforcement authorities and federal agencies. Although certain states' Attorneys General have recently withdrawn from global settlement negotiations related to these matters, the negotiations remain ongoing and are focused on the amount and form of any settlement payment or commitment and additional settlement terms, including principal forgiveness, servicing standards, enforcement mechanisms and releases. We cannot be certain as to the ultimate outcome that may result from these negotiations or the timing of such outcome.
We continue to be subject to additional borrower and non-borrower litigation and governmental and regulatory scrutiny related to our past and current servicing and foreclosure activities. This scrutiny may extend beyond our pending foreclosure matters to issues arising out of alleged irregularities with respect to previously completed foreclosure activities. The current environment of heightened regulatory scrutiny has the potential to subject us to inquiries or investigations that could significantly adversely affect our reputation. Such investigations by state and federal authorities, as well as any other governmental or regulatory scrutiny of our foreclosure processes, could result in material fines, penalties, equitable remedies, additional default servicing requirements and process changes, or other enforcement actions, and could result in significant legal costs in responding to governmental investigations and additional litigation.
In the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we incurred
$350 million
and
$1.9 billion
of mortgage-related assessments and waivers costs which included
$244 million
and
$1.3 billion
for compensatory fees that we expect to be assessed by the GSEs as a result of foreclosure delays with the remainder being out-of-pocket costs that we do not expect to recover because of foreclosure delays. We expect that these costs will remain elevated as additional loans are delayed in the foreclosure process and as the GSEs assert more aggressive criteria. We also expect that additional costs related to resources necessary to perform the foreclosure process assessment, to revise affidavit filings and to implement other operational changes will continue for at least the remainder of 2011. This will likely result in continued higher noninterest expense, including higher default servicing costs and legal expenses in
CRES,
and has impacted and may continue to impact the value of our MSRs related to these serviced loans. It is also possible that the delays in foreclosure sales may result in additional costs and expenses, including costs associated with the maintenance of properties or possible home price declines while foreclosures are delayed. In addition, required process changes, including those required under the consent orders with federal bank regulators, are likely to result in further increases in our default servicing costs over the longer term. Finally, the time to complete foreclosure sales may continue to be protracted, which may result in a greater number of nonperforming loans and increased servicing advances and may impact the collectability of such advances and the value of our MSR asset, MBS and real estate owned properties.
An increase in the time to complete foreclosure sales also may increase the number of severely delinquent loans in our mortgage servicing portfolio, result in increasing levels of consumer nonperforming loans and could have a dampening effect on net interest margin as nonperforming assets increase. Accordingly, delays in foreclosure sales, including any delays beyond those currently anticipated, our continued process enhancements, including those required under the OCC and federal bank regulator consent orders and any issues that may arise out of alleged irregularities in our foreclosure process could significantly increase the costs associated with our mortgage operations.
Private-label Securitization Settlement – Servicing Matters
In connection with the BNY Mellon Settlement, BAC HLS has agreed to implement certain servicing changes. The Trustee and BAC HLS have agreed to clarify and conform certain servicing standards related to loss mitigation. In particular, the BNY Mellon Settlement would clarify that it is permissible to apply the same loss-mitigation strategies to the Covered Trusts as are applied to BAC HLS affiliates' held-for-investment (HFI) portfolios. This agreement was effective in the second quarter of 2011 and is not conditioned on final court approval.
BAC HLS also agreed to transfer the servicing related to certain high-risk loans to qualified subservicers on a schedule that began with the signing of the BNY Mellon Settlement. This servicing transfer will reduce the servicing fees payable to BAC HLS in the future. Upon final court approval, failure to meet the established benchmarking standards for loans not in subservicing arrangements can trigger the payment of agreed-upon fees. Additionally, we and legacy Countrywide have agreed to work to resolve with the Trustee certain mortgage documentation issues related to the enforceability of mortgages in foreclosure and to reimburse the related Covered Trust for any loss if BAC HLS is unable to foreclose on the mortgage and the Covered Trust is not made whole by a title policy because of these documentation issues. These agreements will terminate if final court approval of the BNY Mellon Settlement is not obtained, although we could still have exposure under the pooling and servicing agreements related to the mortgages in the Covered Trusts for these documentation issues.
We estimate that the costs associated with additional servicing obligations under the BNY Mellon Settlement contributed
$400 million
to the second quarter 2011 valuation charge related to the MSR asset. The additional servicing actions are consistent with the consent orders with the OCC and the Federal Reserve.

of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
Financial Reform Act
The Financial Reform Act, which was signed into law on July 21, 2010, enacts sweeping financial regulatory reform and has altered and will continue to alter the way in which we conduct certain businesses, increase our costs and reduce our revenues. Many aspects of the Financial Reform Act remain subject to final rulemaking and will take effect over several years, making it difficult to anticipate the precise impact on the Corporation, our customers or the financial services industry.
Debit Interchange Fees
On June 29, 2011, the Federal Reserve adopted a final rule with respect to the Durbin Amendment effective on October 1, 2011 which, among other things, establishes a regulatory cap for many types of debit interchange transactions to equal no more than 21 cents plus five bps of the value of the transaction. Furthermore, the Federal Reserve also adopted a rule to allow a debit card issuer to recover one cent per transaction for fraud prevention purposes if the issuer complies with certain fraud-related requirements promulgated by the Federal Reserve. We intend to comply with these fraud-related requirements. The Federal Reserve also approved rules governing routing and exclusivity, requiring issuers to offer two unaffiliated networks for routing transactions on each debit or prepaid product, which are effective April 1, 2012. For additional information, see
Card Services

.
Limitations on Proprietary Trading
On October 11, 2011, the Federal Reserve, the OCC, FDIC and the SEC released for comment proposed regulations implementing limitations on proprietary trading as well as the sponsorship of or investment in hedge funds and private equity funds (the Volcker Rule) established by the Financial Reform Act. The proposed regulations include clarifications to the definition of proprietary trading and distinctions between permitted and prohibited activities. The comment period ends on January 13, 2012 and sometime thereafter final regulations will be promulgated. However, in light of the complexity of the proposed regulations and the likelihood that a substantial number of comments will be submitted (the proposal requests comments on over 1,300 questions on 400 different topics), it is not possible to predict the content of the final regulations. In addition, the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has not yet issued its proposed regulations under the Volcker Rule.
The statutory provisions of the Volcker Rule will become effective on July 21, 2012, whether or not the final regulations are adopted, and it gives certain financial institutions two years from the effective date, with opportunities for additional extensions, to bring activities and investments into compliance. Although
GBAM
completely exited its proprietary trading business as of June 30, 2011 in anticipation of the Volcker Rule and our initiative to optimize our balance sheet, the ultimate impact of the Volcker Rule on us remains uncertain. However, it is possible that the implementation of the Volcker Rule could limit or restrict our remaining trading activities. Implementation of the Volcker Rule could also limit or restrict our ability to sponsor and hold ownership interests in hedge funds, private equity funds and other subsidiary operations. Additionally, implementation of the Volcker Rule could increase our operational and compliance costs and reduce our trading revenues and adversely affect out results of operations. For additional information about our trading business, see

.
FDIC Deposit Insurance Assessments
In April 2011, a new regulation became effective that implements revisions to the assessment system mandated by the Financial Reform Act. The regulation was reflected in the June 30, 2011 FDIC fund balance and in payments made on September 30, 2011. Among other things, the regulation changed the assessment base for insured depository institutions from adjusted domestic deposits to average consolidated total assets during an assessment period, less average tangible equity capital during that assessment period. Additionally, the FDIC has broad discretionary authority to increase assessments on large and highly complex institutions on a case by case basis. Any future increases in required deposit insurance premiums or other bank industry fees could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Recovery and Resolution Planning
On October 17, 2011, the Federal Reserve approved a final rule to be issued jointly with the FDIC that requires the Corporation and other bank holding companies with assets of $50 billion or more, as well as companies designated as systemic by the Financial Stability Oversight Council, to periodically report to the FDIC and the Federal Reserve their plans for a rapid and orderly resolution in the event of material financial distress or failure.
68
The final rule, which was approved by the FDIC on September 13, 2011, will require a company to submit a plan for how it could be resolved in a bankruptcy proceeding. If the FDIC and the Federal Reserve determine that a company's plan is not credible and the company fails to cure the deficiencies in a timely manner, then the FDIC and the Federal Reserve may jointly impose on the company, or any of its subsidiaries, more stringent capital, leverage or liquidity requirements or restrictions on growth, activities or operations. The Corporation's initial plan will be required to be submitted no later than June 30, 2012, and updated annually.
Orderly Liquidation Authority
Under the Financial Reform Act, where a systemically important financial institution such as the Corporation is in default or danger of default, the FDIC may, in certain circumstances, be appointed receiver in order to conduct an orderly liquidation of such systemically important financial institution. In such a case, the FDIC could invoke a new form of resolution authority, called the orderly liquidation authority, instead of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, if the Secretary of the Treasury makes certain financial distress and systemic risk determinations. The orderly liquidation authority is modeled in part on the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, but also adopts certain concepts from the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
The orderly liquidation authority contains certain differences from the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Macroprudential systemic protection is the primary objective of the orderly liquidation authority, subject to minimum threshold protections for creditors. Accordingly, in certain circumstances under the orderly liquidation authority, the FDIC could permit payment of obligations determined to be systemically significant (for example, short-term creditors or operating creditors) in lieu of the payment of other obligations (for example, long-term creditors) without the need to obtain creditors' consent or prior court review. Additionally, under the orderly liquidation authority, amounts owed to the U.S. government generally enjoy a statutory payment priority.
Certain Other Provisions
The Financial Reform Act also expands the role of state regulators in enforcing consumer protection requirements over banks, includes new minimum leverage and risk-based capital requirements for large financial institutions and disqualifies trust preferred securities and other hybrid capital securities from Tier 1 capital. Many of the provisions under the Financial Reform Act have begun to be phased in or will be phased in over the next several months or years and will be subject both to further rulemaking and the discretion of applicable regulatory bodies.
The Financial Reform Act will continue to have a significant and negative impact on our earnings through fee reductions, higher costs and new restrictions, as well as reductions to available capital. The Financial Reform Act may also continue to have a material adverse impact on the value of certain assets and liabilities held on our balance sheet. The ultimate impact of the Financial Reform Act on our businesses and results of operations will depend on regulatory interpretation and rulemaking, as well as the success of any of our actions to mitigate the negative earnings impact of certain provisions.

U.K. Bank Levy
The U.K. government bank levy legislation was enacted on July 19, 2011. The rate on banks operating in the U.K. has been set at 7.5 bps for short-term liabilities and 3.75 bps for long-term liabilities for 2011 and will increase to 7.8 bps for short-term liabilities and 3.9 bps for long-term liabilities beginning in 2012. Based on current estimates, the cost of the bank levy to the Corporation is expected to be approximately $80 million for 2011, of which $60 million has been accrued as of
September 30, 2011
, and is non-deductible for U.K. tax purposes.
Transactions with Affiliates
The terms of certain OTC derivative contracts and other trading agreements of the Corporation provide that upon the occurrence of certain specified events, such as a change in our credit ratings, Merrill Lynch and other non-bank affiliates may be required to provide additional collateral or to provide other remedies, or our counterparties may have the right to terminate or otherwise diminish our rights under these contracts or agreements. Following the recent downgrade of the credit ratings of the Corporation, we have engaged in discussions with certain derivative and other counterparties regarding their rights under these agreements. In response to counterparties' inquiries and requests, we have discussed and in some cases substituted derivative contracts and other trading agreements, including naming BANA as the new counterparty. Our ability to substitute or make changes to these agreements to meet counterparties' requests may be subject to certain limitations, including counterparty willingness, regulatory limitations on naming BANA as the new counterparty, and the type or amount of collateral required. It is possible that such limitations on our ability to substitute or make changes to these agreements, including naming BANA as the new counterparty, could adversely affect our results of operations.

Managing Risk
|
|
Overview
|
Risk is inherent in every activity that we undertake. Our business exposes us to strategic, credit, market, liquidity, compliance, operational and reputational risk. We must manage these risks to maximize our long-term results by ensuring the integrity of our assets and the quality of our earnings. Our risk management infrastructure is continually evolving to meet the heightened challenges posed by the increased complexity of the financial services industry and markets, by our increased size and global footprint, and by the 2008 financial crisis. We have a defined risk framework and risk appetite which is approved by the Corporation’s Board of Directors (the Board).
We take a comprehensive approach to risk management. Risk management planning is fully integrated with strategic, financial and customer/client planning so that goals and responsibilities are aligned across the organization. Risk is managed in a systematic manner by focusing on the Corporation as a whole as well as managing risk across the enterprise and within individual business units, products, services and transactions, and across all geographic locations. We maintain a governance structure that delineates the responsibilities for risk management activities, as well as governance and oversight of those activities, by executive management and the Board. For a more detailed discussion of our risk management activities, see pages
59 through 107
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
|
Strategic Risk Management
|
Strategic risk is embedded in every line of business and is one of the major risk categories along with credit, market, liquidity, compliance and operational risks. It is the risk that results from adverse business decisions, ineffective or inappropriate business plans, or failure to respond to changes in the competitive environment, business cycles, customer preferences, product obsolescence, regulatory environment, business strategy execution and/or other inherent risks of the business including reputational and operational risk. In the financial services industry, strategic risk is elevated due to changing customer, competitive and regulatory environments. Our appetite for strategic risk is assessed within the context of the strategic plan, with strategic risks selectively and carefully considered in the context of the evolving marketplace. Strategic risk is managed in the context of our overall financial condition and assessed, managed and acted on by the Chief Executive Officer and executive management team. Significant strategic actions, such as material acquisitions or capital actions, require review and approval of the Board.

Strategic Risk Management
activities, see pages
62 and 63
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
|
Capital Management
|
Bank of America manages its capital position to ensure capital is sufficient to support our business activities and that capital, risk and risk appetite are commensurate with one another, ensure safety and soundness under adverse scenarios, take advantage of growth and strategic opportunities, maintain ready access to financial markets, remain a source of strength for its subsidiaries and satisfy current and future regulatory capital requirements.
To determine the appropriate level of capital, we assess the results of our Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP), the current economic and market environment, and feedback from investors, ratings agencies and regulators. For additional information regarding the ICAAP, see page 63
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. For additional information regarding possible exchange transactions, see
Recent Events – Debt and Capital Exchanges
on page
10
.
Capital management is integrated into the risk and governance processes, as capital is a key consideration in the development of the strategic plan, risk appetite and risk limits. Economic capital is allocated to each business unit and used to perform risk-adjusted return analysis at the business unit, client relationship and transaction levels.
|
Regulatory Capital
|
As a financial services holding company, we are subject to the risk-based capital guidelines (Basel I) issued by federal banking regulators. At
September 30, 2011
, we operated banking activities primarily under two charters: BANA and FIA Card Services, N.A. (FIA). Under these guidelines, the Corporation and its affiliated banking entities measure capital adequacy based on Tier 1 common capital, Tier 1 capital and Total capital (Tier 1 plus Tier 2 capital). Capital ratios are calculated by dividing each capital amount by risk-weighted assets. Additionally, Tier 1 capital is divided by adjusted quarterly average total assets to derive the Tier 1 leverage ratio.
70
The Corporation has issued notes to certain unconsolidated corporate-sponsored trust companies which issued Trust Securities. In accordance with Federal Reserve guidance, Trust Securities continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital with revised quantitative limits. As a result, the Corporation includes Trust Securities in Tier 1 capital. The Financial Reform Act includes a provision under which the Corporation’s outstanding Trust Securities in the aggregate amount of $19.9 billion (approximately 147 bps of Tier 1 capital) at
September 30, 2011
will be excluded from Tier 1 capital, with the exclusion to be phased in incrementally over a three-year period beginning January 1, 2013. This amount excludes $1.6 billion of hybrid Trust Securities that are expected to be converted to preferred stock prior to the date of implementation. The treatment of Trust Securities during the phase-in period is unknown and is subject to future rulemaking.

Capital Composition and Ratios
Tier 1 common capital
decreased
$7.5 billion
to
$117.7 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
. The decrease was driven by an increase in deferred tax assets disallowed for regulatory capital, partially offset by the Warrant issued in connection with the investment made by Berkshire. The $11.3 billion increase in the deferred tax asset disallowance at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
was primarily due to the expiration of the longer look-forward period granted by the regulators at the time of the Merrill Lynch acquisition and an increase in net deferred tax assets due to pre-tax results. Tier 1 capital and Total capital
decreased
$7.6 billion
and
$14.0 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
.
Risk-weighted assets
decreased
$96 billion
to
$1,360 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
. The decrease was driven in part by our sale of a portion of our investment in CCB and the sale of our stake in BlackRock and is consistent with our continued efforts to reduce non-core assets and legacy loan portfolios. The Tier 1 common capital ratio
increased
5
bps to
8.65
percent, the Tier 1 capital ratio
increased
24
bps to
11.48
percent and the Total capital ratio
increased
9
bps to
15.86
percent driven by a decline in risk-weighted assets. The Tier 1 leverage ratio
decreased
10
bps to
7.11
percent at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
reflecting the decrease in Tier 1 capital and a reduction in adjusted quarterly average total assets.
During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, our risk-based capital ratios were positively impacted by the gain on the sale of a portion of our investment in CCB and the warrants issued in connection with the investment made by Berkshire as well as the reduction in our risk-weighted assets as discussed above. For additional information regarding the sale of a portion of our investment in CCB, see
Note 5 – Securities

Regulatory Capital Changes
We manage regulatory capital to adhere to regulatory standards of capital adequacy based on our current understanding of the rules and the application of such rules to our business as currently conducted. The regulatory capital rules as written by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the Basel Committee) continue to evolve.
U.S. banking regulators published a final Basel II rule (Basel II) in December 2007, which requires us to implement Basel II at the holding company level as well as at certain U.S. bank subsidiaries. We are currently in the Basel II parallel period. On January 11, 2011, U.S. banking regulators issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on the Risk-based Capital Guidelines for Market Risk (the Market Risk Rules) reflecting partial adoption of the Basel Committee’s July 2009 consultative document on the topic.
In addition, the Basel Committee issued capital standards entitled “Basel III: A global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems,” together with liquidity standards discussed below (Basel III) in December 2010. We expect to be in full compliance with the Basel III capital standards within the regulatory timelines.
If implemented by U.S. banking regulators as proposed, Basel III could significantly increase our capital requirements. Basel III and the Financial Reform Act propose the disqualification of Trust Securities from Tier 1 capital, with the Financial Reform Act proposing that the disqualification be phased in from 2013 to 2015. Basel III also proposes the deduction of certain assets from capital (deferred tax assets, MSRs, investments in financial firms and pension assets, among others, within prescribed limitations), the inclusion of accumulated OCI in capital, increased capital for counterparty credit risk, and new minimum capital and buffer requirements. For additional information on MSRs, see
Note 19 – Mortgage Servicing Rights
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
and for additional information on deferred tax assets, see
Note 21 – Income Taxes
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
The phase-in period for the capital deductions is proposed to occur in 20 percent increments from 2014 through 2018 with full implementation by December 31, 2018. An increase in capital requirements for counterparty credit is proposed to be effective January 2013. The phase-in period for the new minimum capital requirements and related buffers is proposed to occur between 2013 and 2019. U.S. banking regulators have indicated a goal to adopt final rules by year-end 2011 or early 2012.
Preparing for the implementation of the new capital rules is a top priority. We intend to continue to build capital through retaining earnings, actively reducing legacy asset portfolios and implementing other capital related initiatives, including focusing on reducing both higher risk-weighted assets and assets currently deducted, or expected to be deducted under Basel III, from capital. On June 17, 2011, U.S. banking regulators proposed rules requiring all large bank holding companies (BHCs) to submit capital plans to the Federal Reserve annually and to require such BHCs to provide prior notice to the Federal Reserve under certain circumstances before making a capital distribution. We expect to comply with this guidance after final rules are issued and become effective.
On July 19, 2011, the Basel Committee published the consultative document “Globally systemic important banks: Assessment methodology and the additional loss absorbency requirement” which sets out measures for global, systemically important financial institutions including the methodology for measuring systemic importance, the additional capital required (the SIFI buffer), and the arrangements by which they will be phased in. As proposed, the SIFI buffer would be met with additional Tier 1 common equity ranging from one percent to 3.5 percent and will be phased in from 2016 through 2018. U.S. banking regulators have not yet provided similar rules or guidance for U.S. implementation of a SIFI buffer.
Given that the U.S. regulatory agencies have issued neither proposed rulemaking nor supervisory guidance on Basel III, significant uncertainty around the eventual impacts remain.

Broker/Dealer Regulatory Capital
The Corporation’s principal U.S. broker/dealer subsidiaries are Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith (MLPF&S) and Merrill Lynch Professional Clearing Corp (MLPCC). MLPCC is a fully-guaranteed subsidiary of MLPF&S and provides clearing and settlement services. Both entities are subject to the net capital requirements of SEC Rule 15c3-1. Both entities are also registered as futures commission merchants and are subject to the CFTC Regulation 1.17.
MLPF&S has elected to compute the minimum capital requirement in accordance with the Alternative Net Capital Requirement as permitted by SEC Rule 15c3-1. At
September 30, 2011
, MLPF&S’s regulatory net capital as defined by Rule 15c3-1 was $10.8 billion and exceeded the minimum requirement of $864 million by $9.9 billion. MLPCC’s net capital of $2.8 billion exceeded the minimum requirement of $170 million by approximately $2.6 billion.
In accordance with the Alternative Net Capital Requirements, MLPF&S is required to maintain tentative net capital in excess of $1 billion, net capital in excess of $500 million and notify the SEC in the event its tentative net capital is less than $5 billion. At
September 30, 2011
, MLPF&S had tentative net capital and net capital in excess of the minimum and notification requirements.

Economic Capital
|
Our economic capital measurement process provides a risk-based measurement of the capital required for unexpected credit, market and operational losses over a one-year time horizon at a 99.97 percent confidence level, consistent with a “AA” credit rating. Economic capital is allocated to each business unit based upon its risk positions and contribution to enterprise risk, and is used for capital adequacy, performance measurement and risk management purposes. The strategic planning process utilizes economic capital with the goal of allocating risk appropriately and measuring returns consistently across all businesses and activities. Economic capital allocation plans are incorporated into the Corporation’s operating plan which is approved by the Board on an annual basis. For additional information regarding economic capital, credit risk capital, market risk capital and operational risk capital, see page 66

Enterprise-wide Stress Testing
|
As a part of our core risk management practices, we conduct enterprise-wide stress tests on a periodic basis to better understand earnings, capital and liquidity sensitivities to certain economic and business scenarios, including economic and market conditions that are more severe than anticipated. These enterprise-wide stress tests provide an understanding of the potential impacts from our risk profile on earnings, capital and liquidity and serve as a key component of our capital management practices. Scenarios are selected by a group comprised of senior line of business, risk and finance executives. Impacts to each line of business from each scenario are then determined and analyzed, primarily by leveraging the models and processes utilized in everyday management routines. Impacts are assessed along with potential mitigating actions that may be taken. Analysis from such stress scenarios is compiled for and reviewed through our Chief Financial Officer Risk Committee (CFORC), Asset Liability Market Risk Committee (ALMRC) and the Board's Enterprise Risk Committee (ERC) and serves to inform decision making by management and the Board. We have made substantial investments to establish stress testing capabilities as a core business process.

Liquidity Risk
|
|
Funding and Liquidity Risk Management
|
We define liquidity risk as the potential inability to meet our contractual and contingent financial obligations, on- or off-balance sheet, as they come due. Our primary liquidity objective is to ensure adequate funding for our businesses throughout market cycles, including periods of financial stress. To achieve that objective, we analyze and monitor our liquidity risk, maintain excess liquidity and access diverse funding sources including our stable deposit base. We define excess liquidity as readily available assets, limited to cash and high-quality, liquid, unencumbered securities that we can use to meet our funding requirements as those obligations arise.
Global funding and liquidity risk management activities are centralized within Corporate Treasury. We believe that a centralized approach to funding and liquidity risk management enhances our ability to monitor liquidity requirements, maximizes access to funding sources, minimizes borrowing costs and facilitates timely responses to liquidity events. For additional information regarding global funding and liquidity risk management, see
Funding and Liquidity Risk Management
on page
67
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
Global Excess Liquidity Sources and Other Unencumbered Assets
We maintain excess liquidity available to Bank of America Corporation, or the parent company, and selected subsidiaries in the form of cash and high-quality, liquid, unencumbered securities. These assets, which we call our Global Excess Liquidity Sources, serve as our primary means of liquidity risk mitigation. Our cash is primarily on deposit with central banks, such as the Federal Reserve. We limit the composition of high-quality, liquid, unencumbered securities to U.S. government securities, U.S. agency securities, U.S. agency MBS and a select group of non-U.S. government and supranational securities. We believe we can quickly obtain cash for these securities, even in stressed market conditions, through repurchase agreements or outright sales. We hold our Global Excess Liquidity Sources in entities that allow us to meet the liquidity requirements of our global businesses, and we consider the impact of potential regulatory, tax, legal and other restrictions that could limit the transferability of funds among entities.
Our Global Excess Liquidity Sources
increased
$
27 billion
to $
363 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
and were maintained as presented in Table
21
. This increase was due primarily to liquidity generated by our bank subsidiaries through deposit growth, reductions in LHFS and other factors. Partially offsetting the increase were the results of our ongoing reductions of long-term debt announced in 2010.

Global Excess Liquidity Sources available to our bank subsidiaries at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
totaled
$217 billion
and
$180 billion
. These amounts are distinct from the cash deposited by the parent company presented in Table
21
. In addition to their Global Excess Liquidity Sources, our bank subsidiaries hold significant amounts of other unencumbered securities that we believe could also be used to generate liquidity, primarily investment-grade MBS. Our bank subsidiaries can also generate incremental liquidity by pledging a range of other unencumbered loans and securities to certain Federal Home Loan Banks (FHLBs) and the Federal Reserve Discount Window. The cash we could have obtained by borrowing against this pool of specifically-identified eligible assets was approximately $194 billion and $170 billion at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. We have established operational procedures to enable us to borrow against these assets, including regularly monitoring our total pool of eligible loans and securities collateral. Due to regulatory restrictions, liquidity generated by the bank subsidiaries can only be used to fund obligations within the bank subsidiaries and can only be transferred to the parent company or nonbank subsidiaries with prior regulatory approval.
Global Excess Liquidity Sources available to our broker/dealer subsidiaries at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
totaled
$27 billion
and
$35 billion
. Our broker/dealers also held significant amounts of other unencumbered securities that we believe could also be used to generate additional liquidity, including investment-grade securities and equities. Liquidity held in a broker/dealer subsidiary is only available to meet the obligations of that entity and can only be transferred to the parent company or to any other subsidiary with prior regulatory approval due to regulatory restrictions and minimum requirements.
Time to Required Funding and Stress Modeling
We use a variety of metrics to determine the appropriate amounts of excess liquidity to maintain at the parent company and our bank and broker/dealer subsidiaries. One metric we use to evaluate the appropriate level of excess liquidity at the parent company is “Time to Required Funding.” This debt coverage measure indicates the number of months that the parent company can continue to meet its unsecured contractual obligations as they come due using only its Global Excess Liquidity Sources without issuing any new debt or accessing any additional liquidity sources. We define unsecured contractual obligations for purposes of this metric as maturities of senior or subordinated debt issued or guaranteed by Bank of America Corporation or Merrill Lynch. These include certain unsecured debt instruments, primarily structured liabilities, which we may be required to settle for cash prior to maturity and issuances under the FDIC’s Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLGP), all of which will mature by June 30, 2012. The Corporation has established a target for Time to Required Funding of 21 months. Our Time to Required Funding at
September 30, 2011
was 27 months. For purposes of calculating Time to Required Funding for
September 30, 2011
, we have also included in the amount of unsecured contractual obligations the $8.6 billion liability related to the BNY Mellon Settlement. This settlement is subject to final court approval and certain other conditions, and the timing of the payment is not certain.
We utilize liquidity stress models to assist us in determining the appropriate amounts of excess liquidity to maintain at the parent company and our bank and broker/dealer subsidiaries. These models are risk sensitive and have become increasingly important in analyzing our potential contractual and contingent cash outflows beyond those outflows considered in the Time to Required Funding analysis. For additional information on Time to Required Funding and liquidity stress modeling, see page 68
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.

Basel III Liquidity Standards
In December 2010, the Basel Committee issued “International framework for liquidity risk measurement, standards and monitoring,” which includes two proposed measures of liquidity risk. These two minimum liquidity measures were initially introduced in guidance in December 2009 and are considered part of Basel III.
The first proposed liquidity measure is the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), which is calculated as the amount of a financial institution’s unencumbered, high-quality, liquid assets relative to the net cash outflows the institution could encounter under an acute 30-day stress scenario. The second proposed liquidity measure is the Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR), which measures the amount of longer-term, stable sources of funding employed by a financial institution relative to the liquidity profiles of the assets funded and the potential for contingent calls on funding liquidity arising from off-balance sheet commitments and obligations over a one-year period. The Basel Committee expects the LCR requirement to be implemented in January 2015 and the NSFR requirement to be implemented in January 2018, following an observation period that began in 2011. We continue to monitor the development and the potential impact of these proposals, and, assuming adoption by U.S. banking regulators, we expect to meet the final standards within the regulatory timelines.
Diversified Funding Sources
We fund our assets primarily with a mix of deposits and secured and unsecured liabilities through a globally coordinated funding strategy. We diversify our funding globally across products, programs, markets, currencies and investor groups.
We fund a substantial portion of our lending activities through our deposit base, which was
$1,041 billion
and
$1,010 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. Deposits are primarily generated by our
Deposits, Global Commercial Banking, GWIM
and
GBAM
segments. These deposits are diversified by clients, product type and geography and the majority of our U.S. deposits are insured by the FDIC. We consider a substantial portion of our deposits to be a stable, low-cost and consistent source of funding. We believe this deposit funding is generally less sensitive to interest rate changes, market volatility or changes in our credit ratings than wholesale funding sources. Our lending activities may also be financed through secured borrowings, including securitizations and FHLB loans.
Our trading activities in broker/dealer subsidiaries are primarily funded on a secured basis through securities lending and repurchase agreements and these amounts will vary based on customer activity and market conditions. We believe funding these activities in the secured financing markets is more cost efficient and less sensitive to changes in our credit ratings than unsecured financing. Repurchase agreements are generally short-term and often overnight. Disruptions in secured financing markets for financial institutions have occurred in prior market cycles which resulted in adverse changes in terms or significant reductions in the availability of such financing. We manage the liquidity risks arising from secured funding by sourcing funding globally from a diverse group of counterparties, providing a range of securities collateral and pursuing longer durations, when appropriate.
We significantly reduced our use of unsecured short-term borrowings at the parent company and broker/dealer subsidiaries, including commercial paper and master notes, during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
. These short-term borrowings were used to support customer activities, short-term financing requirements and cash management objectives.

The interest rate for securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase increased in the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
primarily due to an increase in cash flow hedge expense.
|
|
(2)
|
The interest rate for commercial paper for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
included gains of $38 million reclassified from accumulated OCI to net interest income related to discontinuing certain cash flow hedges because it was no longer probable that the original forecasted transaction would occur.
|

The interest rate for other short-term borrowings increased in the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
primarily due to higher stock borrow and lending costs driven by client investment and financing activities.

Note 12 – Federal Funds Sold, Securities Borrowed or Purchased Under Agreements to Resell and Short-term Borrowings
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
Our mortgage business accesses a liquid market for the sale of newly originated mortgages through contracts with the GSEs and FHA. Contracts with the GSEs are subject to the Seller/Servicer guides issued by those GSEs.
We issue the majority of our long-term unsecured debt at the parent company. During the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
, the parent company issued $4.3 billion and $16.4 billion of long-term unsecured debt. We may also issue long-term unsecured debt at BANA, although there were no new issuances during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
.
We issue long-term unsecured debt in a variety of maturities and currencies to achieve cost-efficient funding and to maintain an appropriate maturity profile. While the cost and availability of unsecured funding may be negatively impacted by general market conditions or by matters specific to the financial services industry or the Corporation, we seek to mitigate refinancing risk by actively managing the amount of our borrowings that we anticipate will mature within any month or quarter.
The primary benefits of our centralized funding strategy include greater control, reduced funding costs, wider name recognition by investors and greater flexibility to meet the variable funding requirements of subsidiaries. Where regulations, time zone differences or other business considerations make parent company funding impractical, certain other subsidiaries may issue their own debt.
80
We use derivative transactions to manage the duration, interest rate and currency risks of our borrowings, considering the characteristics of the assets they are funding. For further details on our ALM activities, see
Interest Rate Risk Management for Nontrading Activities
on page
127
.
We also diversify our unsecured funding sources by issuing various types of debt instruments including structured liabilities, which are debt obligations that pay investors with returns linked to other debt or equity securities, indices, currencies or commodities. We typically hedge the returns we are obligated to pay on these liabilities with derivative positions and/or investments in the underlying instruments, so that from a funding perspective, the cost is similar to our other unsecured long-term debt. We could be required to settle certain structured liability obligations for cash or other securities immediately under certain circumstances, which we consider for liquidity planning purposes. We believe, however, that a portion of such borrowings will remain outstanding beyond the earliest put or redemption date. We had outstanding structured liabilities with a book value of $52.0 billion and $61.1 billion at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.
Substantially all of our senior and subordinated debt obligations contain no provisions that could trigger a requirement for an early repayment, require additional collateral support, result in changes to terms, accelerate maturity or create additional financial obligations upon an adverse change in our credit ratings, financial ratios, earnings, cash flows or stock price.
Prior to 2010, we participated in the TLGP, which allowed us to issue senior unsecured debt that the FDIC guaranteed in return for a fee based on the amount and maturity of the debt. At
September 30, 2011
, we had $27.5 billion outstanding under the program. We no longer issue debt under this program and all of our debt issued under TLGP will mature by June 30, 2012. TLGP issuances are included in the unsecured contractual obligations for the Time to Required Funding metric. Under this program, our debt received the highest long-term ratings from the major credit ratings agencies which resulted in a lower total cost of issuance than if we had issued non-FDIC guaranteed long-term debt.

At
September 30, 2011
, total long-term debt
decreased
$49.5 billion
or
11 percent
, compared to
December 31, 2010
. This decrease is reflective of our ongoing initiative to reduce long-term debt over time and we have pre-funded our unsecured benchmark parent company borrowing needs for the remainder of 2011. We anticipate we will continue to reduce our long-term debt as appropriate through 2013. For additional information on long-term debt funding, see
Note 13 – Long-term Debt
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. For additional information regarding funding and liquidity risk management, see pages 67 through 70
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
Contingency Planning
We maintain contingency funding plans that outline our potential responses to liquidity stress events at various levels of severity. These policies and plans are based on stress scenarios and include potential funding strategies and communication and notification procedures that we would implement in the event we experienced stressed liquidity conditions. We periodically review and test the contingency funding plans to validate efficacy and assess readiness.
Our U.S. bank subsidiaries can access contingency funding through the Federal Reserve Discount Window. Certain non-U.S. subsidiaries have access to central bank facilities in the jurisdictions in which they operate. While we do not rely on these sources in our liquidity modeling, we maintain the policies, procedures and governance processes that would enable us to access these sources if necessary.
Credit Ratings
Our borrowing costs and ability to raise funds are directly impacted by our credit ratings. In addition, credit ratings may be important to customers or counterparties when we compete in certain markets and when we seek to engage in certain transactions, including OTC derivatives. Thus, it is our objective to maintain high-quality credit ratings.
Credit ratings and outlooks are opinions on our creditworthiness and that of our obligations or securities, including long-term debt, short-term borrowings, preferred stock and other securities, including asset securitizations. Our credit ratings are subject to ongoing review by the ratings agencies and thus may change from time to time based on a number of factors, including our own financial strength, performance, prospects and operations as well as factors not under our control. There can be no assurance that we will maintain our current credit ratings, or that additional downgrades will not occur.
82
The three primary ratings agencies, Moody's, S&P and Fitch, have indicated that, as a systemically important financial institution, our credit ratings currently reflect their expectation that, if necessary, we would receive significant support from the U.S. government. All three ratings agencies have been reevaluating our ratings and have indicated that they could reduce the uplift they include in our ratings for government support, for reasons arising from financial services regulatory reform proposals or legislation. Moody's initiated a rating review of Bank of America, placing our ratings on review for possible downgrade from negative outlook due to its view that the current level of U.S. government support incorporated into our ratings may no longer be appropriate. On September 21, 2011, Moody's completed the review and downgraded the long-term rating of Bank of America Corporation and BANA by two notches due to Moody's decision to lower the amount of uplift for potential government support it incorporates into our ratings. Moody's also downgraded Bank of America Corporation's short-term rating by one notch. In addition, S&P and Fitch have indicated they would reevaluate, and could reduce the uplift they include in our ratings for government support, for reasons arising from financial services regulatory reform proposals or legislation. There can be no assurance that S&P and Fitch will refrain from downgrading our credit ratings as well.
Currently, Bank of America Corporation's long-term / short-term senior debt ratings and outlooks expressed by the ratings agencies are as follows: Baa1/P-2 (negative) by Moody's; A/A-1 (negative) by S&P; and A+/F1+ (Rating Watch Negative) by Fitch. BANA's long-term / short-term senior debt ratings and outlooks currently are as follows: A2/P-1 (negative) by Moody's; A+/A-1 (negative) by S&P; and A+/F1+ (Rating Watch Negative) by Fitch. MLPF&S's long-term / short-term senior debt ratings and outlooks are A+/A-1 (negative) by S&P and A+/F1+ (Rating Watch Negative) by Fitch. Merrill Lynch International’s long-term / short-term senior debt ratings are A+/A-1 (negative) by S&P. The credit ratings of Merrill Lynch from the three major credit ratings agencies are the same as those of Bank of America Corporation. The major credit ratings agencies have indicated that the primary drivers of Merrill Lynch's credit ratings are Bank of America Corporation's credit ratings.
A further reduction in certain of our credit ratings or the ratings of certain asset-backed securitizations could likely have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, potential loss of access to credit markets, the related cost of funds, our businesses and on certain trading revenues, particularly in those businesses where counterparty creditworthiness is critical. In addition, under the terms of certain OTC derivative contracts and other trading agreements, the counterparties to those agreements may require us to provide additional collateral, or to terminate these contracts or agreements, which could cause us to sustain losses and/or adversely impact our liquidity. If the short-term credit ratings of our parent company, bank or broker/dealer subsidiaries were downgraded by one or more levels, the potential loss of access to short-term funding sources such as repo financing, and the effect on our incremental cost of funds could be material. For information regarding the additional collateral and termination payments that could be required in connection with certain OTC derivative contracts and other trading agreements as a result of such a credit ratings downgrade, see
Note 4 – Derivatives
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
,
Item 1A. Risk Factors
of the Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 and
Item 1A. Risk Factors
of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
Other factors that influence our credit ratings include changes to the ratings agencies’ methodologies for our industry or certain security types, the ratings agencies’ assessment of the general operating environment for financial services companies, our mortgage exposures, our relative positions in the markets in which we compete, reputation, liquidity position, diversity of funding sources, funding costs, the level and volatility of earnings, corporate governance and risk management policies, capital position, capital management practices and current or future regulatory and legislative initiatives.
During the third quarter of 2011, Moody's and S&P placed the sovereign rating of the United States on review for possible downgrade due to the probability of a default on the government's debt obligations because of a failure to increase the debt limit. On August 2, 2011, Moody's affirmed its Aaa rating and assigned a negative outlook. On August 5, 2011, S&P downgraded the long-term sovereign credit rating on the United States to AA+, and affirmed the short-term sovereign credit rating; the outlook is negative. On August 16, 2011, Fitch affirmed its long-term ratings on the United States at AAA with a stable outlook. All three ratings agencies have indicated that they will continue to assess fiscal projections and consolidation measures, as well as the medium-term economic outlook for the United States.

Credit Risk Management
|
Credit quality continued to show improvement during the first nine months of
2011
. Continued economic stability and our proactive credit risk management initiatives positively impacted the credit portfolio as charge-offs and delinquencies continued to improve across most portfolios along with risk rating improvements in the commercial portfolios. However, global and national economic uncertainty, home price declines, regulatory initiatives and reform continued to weigh on the credit portfolios through
September 30, 2011
. For more information, see
Executive Summary – Third Quarter 2011 Economic and Business Environment
on page
7
.
We proactively refine our underwriting and credit management practices as well as credit standards to meet the changing economic environment. To actively mitigate losses and enhance customer support in our consumer businesses, we have expanded collections, loan modification and customer assistance infrastructures. We also have implemented a number of actions to mitigate losses in the commercial businesses including increasing the frequency and intensity of portfolio monitoring, hedging activity and our practice of transferring management of deteriorating commercial exposures to independent special asset officers as credits approach criticized levels.
Since January 2008, and through the
third
quarter of
2011
, Bank of America and Countrywide have completed nearly 961,000 loan modifications with customers. During the
third
quarter of
2011
, we completed over 52,000 customer loan modifications with a total unpaid principal balance of approximately $11.6 billion, including approximately 23,000 permanent modifications under the government’s Making Home Affordable Program. Of the loan modifications completed in the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, in terms of both the volume of modifications and the unpaid principal balance associated with the underlying loans, most were in the portfolio serviced for investors and were not on our balance sheet. The most common types of modifications include a combination of rate reduction and capitalization of past due amounts which represent 57 percent of the volume of modifications completed during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, while principal forbearance represented 20 percent, principal forgiveness represented nine percent and capitalization of past due amounts represented nine percent. We also provide rate reductions, rate and payment extensions, principal forgiveness and other actions. These modification types are generally considered troubled debt restructurings (TDRs). For more information on TDRs and portfolio impacts, see
Nonperforming Consumer Loans and Foreclosed Properties Activity

and
Note 6 – Outstanding Loans and Leases
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
Certain European countries, including Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain, continue to experience varying degrees of financial stress. In October, 2011, Moody's downgraded Spain's Aa2 sovereign credit rating two levels to A1 and downgraded Italy's Aa2 sovereign credit rating three levels to A2. Contagion fears expanded and credit spreads widened further in certain European countries and European banks. Although the financial relief plan announced by European leaders on October 27, 2011 initially drew favorable responses from the financial markets, details remain to be negotiated and implementation is subject to certain contingencies and risks. There remains considerable uncertainty as to future developments in the European debt crisis and the impact on financial markets. Additionally, rising oil and commodity prices and impacts to global supply chains could result in a disruption of financial and commodity markets and trade which could have a detrimental impact on the global economic recovery. For information on our direct sovereign and non-sovereign exposures in non-U.S. countries, see
Non-U.S. Portfolio

Consumer Portfolio Credit Risk Management
|
Credit risk management for the consumer portfolio begins with initial underwriting and continues throughout a borrower’s credit cycle. Statistical techniques in conjunction with experiential judgment are used in all aspects of portfolio management including underwriting, product pricing, risk appetite, setting credit limits, and establishing operating processes and metrics to quantify and balance risks and returns. Statistical models are built using detailed behavioral information from external sources such as credit bureaus and/or internal historical experience. These models are a component of our consumer credit risk management process and are used in part to help make both new and existing credit decisions and portfolio management strategies, including authorizations and line management, collection practices and strategies, determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses, and economic capital allocations for credit risk.
For information on our accounting policies regarding delinquencies, nonperforming status, charge-offs and TDRs for the consumer portfolio, see
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K

Consumer Credit Portfolio
|
Improvement in the U.S. economy and labor markets throughout most of
2010
and into the first nine months of
2011
resulted in lower credit losses in most consumer portfolios compared to the first nine months of
2010
. However, continued stress in the housing market, including declining home prices, continued to adversely impact the home loans portfolio.
Table
26
presents our outstanding consumer loans and the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio. Loans that were acquired from Countrywide and considered credit-impaired were recorded at fair value upon acquisition. In addition to being included in the “Outstandings” columns in Table
26
, these loans are also shown separately, net of purchase accounting adjustments, in the “Countrywide Purchased Credit-impaired Loan Portfolio” column. Loans that were acquired from Merrill Lynch were recorded at fair value including those that were considered credit-impaired upon acquisition. The Merrill Lynch consumer PCI loan portfolio did not materially alter the reported credit quality statistics of the consumer portfolios and is therefore excluded from the “
Countrywide Purchased Credit-impaired Loan Portfolio
” column and related discussion on page
95
. For additional information, see
Note 6 – Outstanding Loans and Leases
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
. The impact of the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio on certain credit statistics is reported where appropriate. See
Countrywide Purchased Credit-impaired Loan Portfolio
on page
95
for more information. Under certain circumstances, loans that were originally classified as discontinued real estate loans upon acquisition have been subsequently modified from pay option or subprime loans into loans with more conventional terms and are now included in the residential mortgage portfolio, but continue to be classified as PCI loans as shown in Table
26
. Table
26
also includes consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option that were consolidated in connection with the Assured Guaranty Settlement in the second quarter of 2011. For more information on the Assured Guaranty Settlement, see
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Representations and Warranties

Table
27
presents accruing consumer loans past due 90 days or more and consumer nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans do not include past due consumer credit card loans, consumer non-real estate-secured loans or unsecured consumer loans as these loans are generally charged off no later than the end of the month in which the loan becomes 180 days past due. Real estate-secured past due consumer loans, which include loans insured by the FHA and individually insured long-term stand-by agreements with FNMA and FHLMC (fully-insured loan portfolio), are reported as accruing as opposed to nonperforming since the principal repayment is insured. Fully-insured loans accruing past due 90 days or more are primarily related to our purchases of delinquent loans pursuant to our servicing agreements with GNMA. Additionally, nonperforming loans and accruing balances past due 90 days or more do not include the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio or loans accounted for under the fair value option even though the customer may be contractually past due.

Our policy is to classify consumer real estate-secured loans as nonperforming at 90 days past due, except the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio, the fully-insured loan portfolio and loans accounted for under the fair value option as referenced in footnote 2 and 3.
|
|
(2)
|
Balances accruing past due 90 days or more are fully-insured loans. These balances include
$15.4 billion
and
$8.3 billion
of loans on which interest has been curtailed by the FHA, and therefore are no longer accruing interest, although principal is still insured and
$4.9 billion
and
$8.5 billion
of loans on which interest was still accruing at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.
|
|
(3)
|
Balances exclude consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option at
September 30, 2011
. At
September 30, 2011
, there were no loans accounted for under fair value option accruing past due 90 days or more and approximately
$2.0 billion
that were nonperforming. There were no consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option at
December 31, 2010

Net charge-off ratios are calculated as annualized net charge-offs divided by average outstanding loans excluding loans accounted for under the fair value option.
|
86
Net charge-off ratios excluding the Countrywide PCI and fully-insured loan portfolios were
2.35
percent and
2.34
percent for residential mortgage,
3.70
percent and
3.94
percent for home equity, 8.34 percent and 7.25 percent for discontinued real estate and 3.50 percent and 3.86 percent for the total consumer portfolio for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, respectively. Net charge-off ratios excluding the Countrywide PCI and fully-insured loan portfolios were
1.38
percent and
1.79
percent for residential mortgage,
4.18
percent and
5.46
percent for home equity, 4.25 percent and 4.53 percent for discontinued real estate and 4.30 percent and 5.35 percent for the total consumer portfolio for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
, respectively. These are the only product classifications materially impacted by the Countrywide PCI and fully-insured loan portfolios for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
.
During the first quarter of 2011, we announced a plan to manage the exposures we have to certain residential mortgage, home equity and discontinued real estate products through the creation of Legacy Asset Servicing within
CRES.
Legacy Asset Servicing
manages both our owned loans, as well as loans serviced for others, that meet certain criteria. The criteria generally represent home lending standards which we do not consider as part of our continuing core business. The Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio includes the following:
|
•
|
Discontinued real estate loans (e.g., subprime and pay option)
|
|
•
|
Residential mortgage loans and home equity loans for products we no longer originate (e.g., reduced document loans and interest-only loans not underwritten to fully amortizing payment)
|
|
•
|
Loans that would not have been originated under our underwriting standards at December 31, 2010 (e.g., conventional loans with an original loan-to-value (LTV) greater than 95 percent and government-insured loans for which the borrower has a FICO score less than 620)
|
|
•
|
Countrywide PCI loan portfolios
|
|
•
|
Certain loans that met a pre-defined delinquency and probability of default threshold as of January 1, 2011
|
The Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio was established as of January 1, 2011. Since making the determination of the pool of loans to be included in the Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio, the criteria have not changed for this portfolio; however, the criteria continue to be evaluated over time. Information presented relating to periods prior to December 31, 2010 was not restated to conform to the realignment between the core portfolio and Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio.

Balances exclude consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option of residential mortgage loans of
$1.3 billion
and discontinued real estate loans of
$3.4 billion
at
September 30, 2011
. There were no consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option at

We believe that the presentation of information adjusted to exclude the impact of the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio, the fully-insured loan portfolio and loans accounted for under the fair value option is more representative of the ongoing operations and credit quality of the business. As a result, in the following discussions of the residential mortgage, home equity and discontinued real estate portfolios, we provide information that excludes the impact of the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio, the fully-insured loan portfolio and loans accounted for under the fair value option in certain credit quality statistics. We separately disclose information on the Countrywide PCI loan portfolios on page
95
.
Residential Mortgage
The residential mortgage portfolio, which excludes the discontinued real estate portfolio acquired from Countrywide, makes up the largest percentage of our consumer loan portfolio at 43 percent of consumer loans at
September 30, 2011
. Approximately 14 percent of the residential mortgage portfolio is in
GWIM
and represents residential mortgages that are originated for the home purchase and refinancing needs of our wealth management clients. The remaining portion of the portfolio is mostly in
All Other
and is comprised of both originated loans as well as purchased loans used in our overall ALM activities.
Outstanding balances in the residential mortgage portfolio, excluding
$1.3 billion
of loans accounted for under the fair value option,
increased
$8.5 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
as new origination volume, which is primarily fully-insured, was partially offset by paydowns, charge-offs and transfers to foreclosed properties. In addition, repurchases of FHA delinquent loans pursuant to our servicing agreements with GNMA also increased the residential mortgage portfolio during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
. There were no bulk repurchases of FHA delinquent loans during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the residential mortgage portfolio included
$91.9 billion
and
$67.2 billion
of outstanding fully-insured loans of which $24.8 billion and $20.1 billion were related to repurchases of FHA delinquent loans pursuant to our servicing agreements with GNMA. The remainder of the portfolio represents fully-insured originations that were retained on-balance sheet. On this portion of the residential mortgage portfolio, we are protected against principal loss as a result of FHA insurance and long-term stand-by agreements with FNMA and FHLMC.
We have mitigated a portion of our credit risk on the residential mortgage portfolio through the use of synthetic securitization vehicles and long-term stand-by agreements with FNMA and FHLMC as described in
Note 6 – Outstanding Loans and Leases
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the synthetic securitization vehicles referenced $35.5 billion and $53.9 billion of residential mortgage loans and provided loss protection up to $866 million and $1.1 billion. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation had a receivable of $390 million and $722 million from these vehicles for reimbursement of losses. The Corporation records an allowance for credit losses on loans referenced by the synthetic securitization vehicles. The reported net charge-offs for the residential mortgage portfolio do not include the benefit of amounts reimbursable from these vehicles. Adjusting for the benefit of the credit protection from the synthetic securitizations, the residential mortgage net charge-off ratio, excluding the Countrywide PCI and fully-insured loan portfolios, for both the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
would have been reduced by nine bps and 14 bps compared to seven bps and nine bps for the
same periods in 2010
.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, $21.4 billion and $12.9 billion in loans were protected by long-term stand-by agreements. All of these loans are individually insured and therefore the Corporation does not record an allowance for credit losses.
Synthetic securitizations and the long-term stand-by agreements with FNMA and FHLMC together reduce our regulatory risk-weighted assets due to the transfer of a portion of our credit risk to unaffiliated parties. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, these vehicles had the cumulative effect of reducing our risk-weighted assets by $7.4 billion and $8.2 billion, and increased our Tier 1 capital ratio by six bps for both periods and our Tier 1 common capital ratio by five bps for both periods.

Table

presents certain residential mortgage key credit statistics on both a reported basis and excluding the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio, the fully-insured loan portfolio and loans accounted for under the fair value option. We believe the presentation of information adjusted to exclude these loan portfolios is more representative of the credit risk in the residential mortgage loan portfolio. As such, the following discussion presents the residential mortgage portfolio excluding the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio, the fully-insured loan portfolio and loans accounted for under the fair value option.

Nonperforming residential mortgage loans
decreased
$1.3 billion
compared to
December 31, 2010
as charge-offs, driven by refreshed valuations of underlying collateral, nonperforming loans returning to performing status, and paydowns and payoffs outpaced new inflows, which continued to slow in the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
due to favorable delinquency trends. Accruing loans past due 30 days or more
decreased
$1.1 billion
to
$4.0 billion
at
September 30, 2011
. At
September 30, 2011
, $11.8 billion, or 72 percent, of the nonperforming residential mortgage loans were 180 days or more past due and had been written down to the estimated fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. Net charge-offs
increased
$329 million
to
$989 million
for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, or
2.35 percent
of total average residential mortgage loans compared to
1.38 percent
for the same period in
2010
. Net charge-offs
increased
$298 million
to
$3.0 billion
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, or
2.34 percent
of total average residential mortgage loans compared to
1.79 percent
for the same period in
2010
. These increases in net charge-offs for the
three and nine
month periods were primarily driven by further deterioration in home prices on loans greater than 180 days past due which were written down to their underlying collateral value partially offset by favorable delinquency trends. In addition to the factors noted above, the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
included $175 million of net charge-offs in the first half of 2010 related to compliance with regulatory guidance on collateral dependent modified loans that were written down to their underlying collateral value. Net charge-off ratios were further impacted by lower loan balances primarily due to paydowns and charge-offs outpacing new originations.

Loans in the residential mortgage portfolio with certain characteristics have greater risk of loss than others. These characteristics include loans with a high refreshed LTV, loans originated at the peak of home prices in 2006 and 2007, interest-only loans and loans to borrowers located in California and Florida where we have concentrations and where significant declines in home prices have been experienced. Although the following disclosures address each of these risk characteristics separately, there is significant overlap in loans with these characteristics, which contributed to a disproportionate share of the losses in the portfolio. The residential mortgage loans with all of these higher risk characteristics comprised six percent of the residential mortgage portfolio at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. Loans with all of these risk characteristics accounted for 23 percent of the residential mortgage net charge-offs during both the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to 27 percent for both the same periods in
2010
.
Residential mortgage loans with a greater than 90 percent but less than 100 percent refreshed LTV represented
11 percent
of the residential mortgage portfolio at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. Loans with a refreshed LTV greater than 100 percent represented
26 percent
of the residential mortgage loan portfolio at
September 30, 2011
and
24 percent
at
December 31, 2010
. Of the loans with a refreshed LTV greater than 100 percent, 92 percent and 88 percent were performing at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. Loans with a refreshed LTV greater than 100 percent reflect loans where the outstanding carrying value of the loan is greater than the most recent valuation of the property securing the loan. The majority of these loans have a refreshed LTV greater than 100 percent due primarily to home price deterioration over the past several years. Loans to borrowers with refreshed FICO scores below 620 represented
16 percent
and
15 percent
of the residential mortgage portfolio at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.
Of the $164.4 billion and $180.1 billion in total residential mortgage loans outstanding at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, as shown in
Table 31
, 35 percent were originated as interest-only loans at both dates. The outstanding balance of interest-only residential mortgage loans that have entered the amortization period was $12.1 billion, or 21 percent, at
September 30, 2011
. Residential mortgage loans that have entered the amortization period have experienced a higher rate of early stage delinquencies and nonperforming status compared to the residential mortgage portfolio as a whole. As of
September 30, 2011
, $358 million, or three percent, of outstanding residential mortgages that had entered the amortization period were accruing past due 30 days or more compared to $4.0 billion, or two percent, of accruing past due 30 days or more for the entire residential mortgage portfolio. In addition, at
September 30, 2011
, $1.9 billion, or 16 percent, of outstanding residential mortgages that had entered the amortization period were nonperforming compared to $16.4 billion, or 10 percent, of nonperforming loans for the entire residential mortgage portfolio. Loans in our interest-only residential mortgage portfolio have an interest only period of 3 to 10 years and more than 80 percent of these loans will not be required to make a fully-amortizing payment until 2015 or later.
Table
31
presents outstandings, nonperforming loans and net charge-offs by certain state concentrations for the residential mortgage portfolio. The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) within California represented 12 percent and 13 percent of outstandings at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. Loans within this MSA comprised only seven percent of net charge-offs for both the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
and
2010
.

The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) encourages banks to meet the credit needs of their communities for housing and other purposes, particularly in neighborhoods with low or moderate incomes. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, our CRA portfolio was $13.2 billion and $13.8 billion, or eight percent of the residential mortgage loan balances for both periods. The CRA portfolio included $2.6 billion and $3.0 billion of nonperforming loans at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
representing 16 percent and 17 percent of total nonperforming residential mortgage loans. Net charge-offs related to the CRA portfolio were $163 million and $183 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, or 16 percent and 28 percent of total net charge-offs for the residential mortgage portfolio. Net charge-offs related to this portfolio were $575 million and $683 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, or 19 percent and 25 percent of total net charge-offs for the residential mortgage portfolio.
For information on representations and warranties related to our residential mortgage portfolio, see
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Representations and Warranties

and
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees

.
Home Equity
The home equity portfolio makes up
21 percent
of the consumer portfolio and is comprised of HELOC, home equity loans and reverse mortgages. As of
September 30, 2011
, our HELOC portfolio had an outstanding balance of $105.5 billion or 83 percent of the home equity portfolio. HELOCs generally have an initial draw period of 10 years with approximately 12 percent of the portfolio having a draw period of five years with a five-year renewal option. During the initial draw period, the borrowers are only required to pay the interest due on the loans on a monthly basis. After the initial draw period ends, the loans generally convert to 15-year amortizing loans. As of
September 30, 2011
, our home equity loan portfolio had an outstanding balance of $21.1 billion, or 16 percent of the home equity portfolio. Home equity loans are almost all fixed-rate loans with amortizing payment terms of 10 to 30 years and approximately 52 percent of these loans have 25 to 30-year terms. As of
September 30, 2011
, our reverse mortgage portfolio had an outstanding balance of $1.1 billion or one percent of the total home equity portfolio. In the first quarter of 2011, we announced that we were exiting the reverse mortgage origination business.
At
September 30, 2011
, approximately 87 percent of the home equity portfolio was included in
CRES
while the remainder of the portfolio was primarily in
GWIM
. Outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio
decreased
$10.2 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
primarily due to paydowns and charge-offs outpacing new originations and draws on existing lines. Of the total home equity portfolio at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, $24.9 billion, or 20 percent, and $24.8 billion, or 18 percent, were in first-lien positions (21 percent and 20 percent excluding the Countrywide PCI home equity portfolio). For more information on the Countrywide PCI home equity portfolio, see page
95
. As of
September 30, 2011
, outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio that were in a second-lien or more junior-lien position and where we also held the first-lien loan totaled $40.1 billion, or 35 percent, of our home equity portfolio excluding the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio.
Unused HELOCs totaled $68.6 billion at
September 30, 2011
compared to $80.1 billion at
December 31, 2010
. This decrease was due primarily to customers choosing to close accounts as well as line management initiatives on deteriorating accounts, which more than offset new production. The HELOC utilization rate was 61 percent at
September 30, 2011
compared to 59 percent at
December 31, 2010
.

The following discussion presents the home equity portfolio excluding the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio.
Nonperforming outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio
decreased
$361 million
compared to
December 31, 2010
driven primarily by charge-offs, nonperforming loans returning to performing status and paydowns and payoffs which together outpaced delinquency inflows, which continued to slow during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
due to favorable early stage delinquency trends. Accruing outstanding balances past due 30 days or more
decreased
$214 million
at
September 30, 2011
. At
September 30, 2011
, $965 million, or 41 percent, of the nonperforming home equity portfolio was 180 days or more past due and had been written down to their fair values.
In some cases, the junior-lien home equity outstanding balance that we hold is current, but the underlying first-lien is not. For outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio in which we service the first-lien loan, we are able to track whether the first-lien loan is in default. For loans in which the first-lien is serviced by a third party, we utilize credit bureau data to estimate the delinquency status of the first-lien. Given that the credit bureau database we use does not include a property address for the mortgages, we are unable to identify with certainty whether a reported delinquent first mortgage pertains to the same property for which we hold a second- or more junior-lien loan. As of
September 30, 2011
, we estimate that $5.0 billion of current second-lien or more junior-lien loans were behind a delinquent first-lien loan. We service the first-lien loans on $1.5 billion of that amount, with the remaining $3.5 billion serviced by third parties. Of the $5.0 billion current second-lien loans, we estimate that approximately $2.6 billion had first-lien loans that were 120 days or more past due, of which approximately $2.1 billion had first-lien loans serviced by third parties and we have therefore assumed for purposes of this disclosure the worst delinquency status of all outstanding mortgages for the borrower as discussed above.

Net charge-offs
decreased
$280 million
to
$1.1 billion
, or
3.70 percent
of the total average home equity portfolio, for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$1.4 billion
, or
4.18 percent
, for the same period in the prior year primarily driven by favorable portfolio trends due in part to improvement in the U.S. economy. Net charge-offs
decreased
$2.0 billion
to
$3.5 billion
, or
3.94 percent
of the total average home equity portfolio, for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$5.5 billion
, or
5.46 percent
, for the same period in the prior year. In addition to the factors noted in the three-month discussion above, the net charge-off amounts during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
were impacted by the implementation of regulatory guidance on collateral dependent modified loans which resulted in $771 million in net charge-offs for the first half of 2010. Net charge-off ratios were further impacted by lower outstanding balances primarily as a result of paydowns and charge-offs outpacing new originations and draws on existing lines.
There are certain characteristics of the outstanding loan balances in the home equity portfolio that have contributed to higher losses including those loans with a high refreshed combined loan-to-value (CLTV), loans that were originated at the peak of home prices in 2006 and 2007 and loans in geographic areas that have experienced the most significant declines in home prices. Home price declines coupled with the fact that most home equity outstandings are secured by second-lien positions have significantly reduced and, in some cases, eliminated all collateral value after consideration of the first-lien position. Although the disclosures below address each of these risk characteristics separately, there is significant overlap in outstanding balances with these characteristics, which has contributed to a disproportionate share of losses in the portfolio. Outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio with all of these higher risk characteristics comprised 10 percent of the total home equity portfolio at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, but have accounted for 30 percent and 28 percent of the home equity net charge-offs during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to 27 percent and 29 percent for the same periods in
2010
.
Outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio with greater than 90 percent but less than 100 percent refreshed CLTVs comprised
10 percent
of the home equity portfolio at
September 30, 2011
and
11 percent
at
December 31, 2010
. Outstanding balances with refreshed CLTVs greater than 100 percent comprised
35 percent
and
30 percent
of the home equity portfolio at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. Of those outstanding balances with a refreshed CLTV greater than 100 percent, 96 percent of the customers were current. For second-lien loans with a refreshed CLTV greater than 100 percent that are current, 88 percent were also current on the underlying first-lien loans. Outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio with a refreshed CLTV greater than 100 percent reflect loans where the carrying value and available line of credit of the combined loans are equal to or greater than the most recent valuation of the property securing the loan. Depending on the value of the property, there may be collateral in excess of the first-lien that is available to reduce the severity of loss on the second-lien. Home price deterioration over the past several years has contributed to an increase in CLTV ratios. Outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio to borrowers with a refreshed FICO score below 620 represented
12 percent
of the home equity portfolio at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.
Of the
$115.6 billion
in total home equity portfolio outstandings, 77 percent and 75 percent at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
were originated as interest-only loans, almost all of which were HELOCs. The outstanding balance of HELOCs that have entered the amortization period was $1.5 billion, or two percent of total HELOCs, at
September 30, 2011
. The HELOCs that have entered the amortization period have experienced a higher percentage of early stage delinquencies and nonperforming status when compared to the HELOC portfolio as a whole. As of
September 30, 2011
, $50 million, or three percent, of outstanding HELOCs that had entered the amortization period were accruing past due 30 days or more compared to $1.5 billion, or one percent, of accruing past due 30 days or more for the entire HELOC portfolio. In addition, at
September 30, 2011
, $54 million, or four percent, of outstanding HELOCs that had entered the amortization period were nonperforming compared to $1.9 billion, or two percent, that were nonperforming for the entire HELOC portfolio. Loans in our HELOC portfolio generally have an initial draw period of 10 years and more than 85 percent of these loans will not be required to make a fully-amortizing payment until 2015 or later.
Although we do not actively track how many of our home equity customers pay only the minimum amount due on their home equity loans and lines, we can infer some of this information through a review of our HELOC portfolio that we service and that is still in its revolving period (i.e., customers may draw on and repay their line of credit, but are generally only required to pay interest on a monthly basis). During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, approximately 64 percent of these customers did not pay down any principal on their HELOCs.

presents outstandings, nonperforming balances and net charge-offs by certain state concentrations for the home equity portfolio. In the New York area, the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island MSA made up 11 percent of the outstanding home equity portfolio at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. This MSA comprised six percent and seven percent of net charge-offs for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
and six percent for both of the same periods in
2010
. The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana MSA within California made up 11 percent of the outstanding home equity portfolio at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. This MSA comprised 11 percent of net charge-offs for both the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
and 11 percent and 12 percent for the same periods in
2010
.

Discontinued Real Estate
The discontinued real estate portfolio, excluding
$3.4 billion
of loans accounted for under the fair value option, totaled
$11.5 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and consists of pay option and subprime loans acquired in the Countrywide acquisition. Upon acquisition, the majority of the discontinued real estate portfolio was considered credit-impaired and written down to fair value. At
September 30, 2011
, the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio was
$10.2 billion
, or
89 percent
of the total discontinued real estate portfolio. This portfolio is included in
All Other
and is managed as part of our overall ALM activities. See
Countrywide Purchased Credit-impaired Loan Portfolio
on page
95
for more information on the discontinued real estate portfolio.
At
September 30, 2011
, the purchased discontinued real estate portfolio that was not credit-impaired was
$1.3 billion
. Loans with greater than 90 percent refreshed LTVs and CLTVs comprised 29 percent of the portfolio and those with refreshed FICO scores below 620 represented 46 percent of the portfolio. The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana MSA within California made up 16 percent of outstanding discontinued real estate loans at
September 30, 2011
.
Pay option adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs), which are included in the discontinued real estate portfolio, have interest rates that adjust monthly and minimum required payments that adjust annually, subject to resetting of the loan if minimum payments are made and deferred interest limits are reached. Annual payment adjustments are subject to a 7.5 percent maximum change. To ensure that contractual loan payments are adequate to repay a loan, the fully-amortizing loan payment amount is re-established after the initial five- or 10-year period and again every five years thereafter. These payment adjustments are not subject to the 7.5 percent limit and may be substantial due to changes in interest rates and the addition of unpaid interest to the loan balance. Payment advantage ARMs have interest rates that are fixed for an initial period of five years. Payments are subject to reset if the minimum payments are made and deferred interest limits are reached. If interest deferrals cause a loan’s principal balance to reach a certain level within the first 10 years of the life of the loan, the payment is reset to the interest-only payment; then at the 10-year point, the fully-amortizing payment is required.
94
The difference between the frequency of changes in a loan’s interest rates and payments along with a limitation on changes in the minimum monthly payments of 7.5 percent per year can result in payments that are not sufficient to pay all of the monthly interest charges (i.e., negative amortization). Unpaid interest is added to the loan balance until the loan balance increases to a specified limit, which can be no more than 115 percent of the original loan amount, at which time a new monthly payment amount adequate to repay the loan over its remaining contractual life is established.
At
September 30, 2011
, the unpaid principal balance of pay option loans was $12.5 billion, with a carrying amount of $10.3 billion, including $9.4 billion of loans that were credit-impaired upon acquisition which are reserved for based on a life-of-loan loss estimate in accordance with applicable accounting standards. The total unpaid principal balance of pay option loans with accumulated negative amortization was $10.2 billion including $724 million of negative amortization. For those borrowers who are making payments in accordance with their contractual terms, the percentage electing to make only the minimum payment on option ARMs was 73 percent at
September 30, 2011
compared to 69 percent at
December 31, 2010
. We continue to evaluate our exposure to payment resets on the acquired negative-amortizing loans including the Countrywide PCI pay option loan portfolio and have taken into consideration several assumptions regarding this evaluation (e.g., prepayment and default rates). Of the loans in the pay-option portfolio at
September 30, 2011
that have not already experienced a payment reset, one percent are expected to reset in the remainder of 2011, seven percent are expected to reset in 2012 and approximately 15 percent are expected to reset thereafter. In addition, approximately seven percent are expected to prepay and approximately 70 percent are expected to default prior to being reset, most of which are severely delinquent as of
September 30, 2011
.
Countrywide Purchased Credit-impaired Loan Portfolio
Loans acquired with evidence of credit quality deterioration since origination and for which it is probable at purchase that we will be unable to collect all contractually required payments are accounted for under the accounting guidance for PCI loans, which addresses accounting for differences between contractual and expected cash flows to be collected from the purchaser’s initial investment in loans if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. Evidence of credit quality deterioration as of the acquisition date may include statistics such as past due status, refreshed FICO scores and refreshed LTVs. PCI loans are recorded at fair value upon acquisition and the applicable accounting guidance prohibits carrying over or recording a valuation allowance in the initial accounting.

95
Of the unpaid principal balance at
September 30, 2011
, $13.6 billion was 180 days or more past due, including $9.7 billion of first-lien and $3.9 billion of home equity. Of the $23.0 billion that is less than 180 days past due, $19.8 billion, or 86 percent of the total unpaid principal balance was current based on the contractual terms while $1.7 billion, or seven percent, was in early stage delinquency. During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, we did not record a provision for credit losses on the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio as slight deterioration in our home price forecast was offset by improving portfolio trends. This compared to a total provision for the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio of $260 million during the
three months ended September 30, 2010
. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we recorded $1.9 billion of provision for credit losses for the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio including $997 million for discontinued real estate, $605 million for home equity loans and $303 million for residential mortgage. This compared to a total provision of $1.5 billion during the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
. Provision expense for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
was driven primarily by a more negative home price outlook versus previous expectations. For further information on the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio, see
Note 6 – Outstanding Loans and Leases
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
Additional information is provided below on the Countrywide PCI residential mortgage, home equity and discontinued real estate loan portfolios.
Purchased Credit-impaired Residential Mortgage Loan Portfolio
The Countrywide PCI residential mortgage loan portfolio comprised
31 percent
of the total Countrywide PCI loan portfolio. Those loans to borrowers with a refreshed FICO score below 620 represented 38 percent of the Countrywide PCI residential mortgage loan portfolio at
September 30, 2011
. Loans with a refreshed LTV greater than 90 percent represented 61 percent of the Countrywide PCI residential mortgage loan portfolio after consideration of purchase accounting adjustments and the related valuation allowance, and 84 percent based on the unpaid principal balance at
September 30, 2011
. Those loans that were originally classified as Countrywide PCI discontinued real estate loans upon acquisition and have been subsequently modified are now included in the Countrywide PCI residential mortgage outstandings. Table

Purchased Credit-impaired Discontinued Real Estate Loan Portfolio
The Countrywide PCI discontinued real estate loan portfolio comprised
32 percent
of the total Countrywide PCI loan portfolio. Those loans to borrowers with a refreshed FICO score below 620 represented 61 percent of the Countrywide PCI discontinued real estate loan portfolio at
September 30, 2011
. Loans with a refreshed LTV, or CLTV in the case of second-liens, greater than 90 percent represented 39 percent of the Countrywide PCI discontinued real estate loan portfolio after consideration of purchase accounting adjustments and the related valuation allowance, and 82 percent based on the unpaid principal balance at
September 30, 2011
. Those loans that were originally classified as discontinued real estate loans upon acquisition and have been subsequently modified are now excluded from this portfolio and included in the Countrywide PCI residential mortgage loan portfolio, but remain in the PCI loan pool. Table

The consumer U.S. credit card portfolio is managed in
Card Services
. Outstandings in the U.S. credit card loan portfolio
decreased
$11.0 billion
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to higher payment rates, charge-offs and portfolio divestitures. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, net charge-offs
decreased
$1.3 billion
to
$1.6 billion
, and
$4.6 billion
to
$5.8 billion
compared to the same periods in the prior year due to improvements in delinquencies, collections and bankruptcies as a result of an improved economic environment and the impact of higher credit quality originations. U.S. credit card loans 30 days or more past due and still accruing interest
decreased
$1.9 billion
while loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest
decreased
$1.2 billion
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to improvement in the U.S. economy. Table
38
presents certain key credit statistics for the consumer U.S. credit card portfolio.

Unused lines of credit for U.S. credit card totaled $384.0 billion at
September 30, 2011
compared to $399.7 billion at
December 31, 2010
. The $15.7 billion decrease was driven by the closure of inactive accounts, account management initiatives on higher risk accounts and portfolio divestitures.
Non-U.S. Credit Card
The consumer non-U.S. credit card portfolio is included in
All Other.
During the third quarter of 2011, as a result of our announcement to sell our Canadian consumer card business and the intent to exit the European consumer card businesses, the non-U.S. credit card portfolio was moved from
Card
Services
to
All
Other
and the Canadian credit card loan portfolio was moved to LHFS. Outstandings in the non-U.S. credit card portfolio
decreased
$11.4 billion
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to the transfer of certain loans to LHFS, lower origination volume and charge-offs. Compared to the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
, net charge-offs
increased
$79 million
to
$374 million
and
decreased
$663 million
to
$1.2 billion
due primarily to the impact of aligning charge-off policies on certain types of renegotiated loans in the second quarter of 2010, which accelerated charge-offs in the second quarter of 2010, but resulted in lower charge-offs in the third quarter of 2010.
98
Unused lines of credit for non-U.S. credit card totaled $39.0 billion at
September 30, 2011
compared to $60.3 billion at
December 31, 2010
. The $21.3 billion decrease was driven primarily by the transfer of the Canadian credit card loan portfolio to LHFS.

Net charge-off ratios are calculated as annualized net charge-offs divided by average outstanding loans and leases.
|
Direct/Indirect Consumer
At
September 30, 2011
, approximately 48 percent of the direct/indirect portfolio was included in
Global Commercial Banking
(dealer financial services - automotive, marine, aircraft and recreational vehicle loans), 35 percent was included in
GWIM
(principally other non-real estate-secured, unsecured personal loans and securities-based lending margin loans), 10 percent was included in
Card Services
(consumer personal loans) and the remainder was in
All Other
(student loans).
Outstanding loans and leases
increased
$166 million
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to securities-based lending growth and product transfers from U.S. commercial, largely offset by lower outstandings in the
Card Services
unsecured consumer lending portfolio. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, net charge-offs
decreased
$406 million
and
$1.5 billion
to
$301 million
and
$1.2 billion
, or
1.32 percent
and
1.77 percent
of total average direct/indirect loans compared to
2.93 percent
and
3.66 percent
for the same periods in the prior year. This decrease was primarily driven by improvements in delinquencies, collections and bankruptcies in the unsecured consumer lending portfolio as a result of an improved economic environment as well as reduced outstandings. An additional driver was lower net charge-offs in the dealer financial services portfolio due to the impact of higher credit quality originations and higher resale values.
For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, net charge-offs in the unsecured consumer lending portfolio decreased $353 million and $1.3 billion to $222 million and $913 million, or 9.36 percent and 11.59 percent of total average unsecured consumer lending loans compared to 15.18 percent and 17.45 percent for the same periods in the prior year. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, net charge-offs in the dealer financial services portfolio decreased $41 million and $150 million to $63 million and $210 million, or 0.60 percent and 0.67 percent of total average dealer financial services loans compared to 0.90 percent and 1.05 percent for the same periods in the prior year. Direct/indirect loans that were past due 30 days or more and still accruing interest declined $756 million to $1.9 billion at
September 30, 2011
compared to $2.6 billion at
December 31, 2010
due to improvements in both the unsecured consumer lending and dealer financial services portfolios.

Other Consumer
At
September 30, 2011
, approximately 96 percent of the
$2.8 billion
other consumer portfolio was associated with certain consumer finance businesses that we previously exited and non-U.S. consumer loan portfolios that are included in
All Other
. The remainder is primarily deposit overdrafts in
Deposits
.
Consumer Loans Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option
Outstanding consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option were
$4.7 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and include
$3.4 billion
of discontinued real estate loans and
$1.3 billion
of residential mortgage loans consolidated in connection with the Assured Guaranty Settlement in the second quarter of 2011. For more information on the Assured Guaranty Settlement, see
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Representations and Warranties
on page
58
. This portfolio is managed as part of our Legacy Asset Servicing portfolio and is included in
CRES
. We recorded losses of $454 million resulting from changes in the fair value of the loan portfolio during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
. These amounts were primarily attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk and were recorded in other income and offset by gains recorded on the related long-term debt that was also consolidated at the time of the Assured Guaranty Settlement.
Nonperforming Consumer Loans and Foreclosed Properties Activity
Table
42
presents nonperforming consumer loans and foreclosed properties activity for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. Nonperforming LHFS are excluded from nonperforming loans as they are recorded at either fair value or the lower of cost or fair value. Nonperforming loans do not include past due consumer credit card loans and in general, past due consumer loans not secured by real estate as these loans are generally charged off no later than the end of the month in which the loan becomes 180 days past due. The fully-insured loan portfolio is not reported as nonperforming as principal repayment is insured. Additionally, nonperforming loans do not include the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio or loans that we account for under the fair value option. For further information on nonperforming loans, see
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. Nonperforming loans declined
$331 million
and
$1.7 billion
during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
. Delinquency inflows to nonaccrual loans slowed compared to the prior year due to favorable portfolio trends and were more than offset by charge-offs, nonperforming loans returning to performing status, and paydowns and payoffs.
The outstanding balance of a real estate-secured loan that is in excess of the estimated property value, after reducing the estimated property value for estimated costs to sell, is charged off no later than the end of the month in which the loan becomes 180 days past due unless repayment of the loan is fully insured. At
September 30, 2011
, $14.9 billion, or 71 percent, of the nonperforming consumer real estate loans and foreclosed properties had been written down to their estimated property value less estimated costs to sell, including $13.0 billion of nonperforming loans 180 days or more past due and $1.9 billion of foreclosed properties.
Foreclosed properties increased
$95 million
and
$643 million
during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
. The increase for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
was due in part to $158 million of foreclosed properties consolidated in connection with the Assured Guaranty Settlement in the second quarter of 2011. For more information on the Assured Guaranty Settlement, see
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Representations and Warranties
on page
58
. PCI loans are excluded from nonperforming loans as these loans were written down to fair value at the acquisition date. However, once the underlying real estate is
100
acquired by the Corporation upon foreclosure of the delinquent PCI loan, it is included in foreclosed properties. Net changes to foreclosed properties related to PCI loans were an increase of $121 million and $371 million for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to a reduction of $134 million and an increase of $221 million for the
same periods in 2010
. Not included in foreclosed properties at
September 30, 2011
was $1.4 billion of real estate that we acquired upon foreclosure of delinquent FHA-insured loans. We hold this real estate on our balance sheet until we convey these properties to the FHA. We exclude these amounts from our nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties activity as we will be reimbursed once the property is conveyed to the FHA for principal and, up to certain limits, costs incurred during the foreclosure process and interest incurred during the holding period.
In October 2010, we voluntarily stopped taking residential mortgage foreclosure proceedings to judgment in states where foreclosure
requires a court order following a legal proceeding (judicial states) and stopped foreclosure sales in all states in order to complete an assessment of related business processes. We have resumed foreclosure sales in all non-judicial states; however, while we have recently resumed foreclosure proceedings in nearly all judicial states, our progress on foreclosure sales in judicial states has been significantly slower than in non-judicial states. We have also not resumed foreclosure sales for certain types of customers, including those in bankruptcy and those with FHA-insured loans, although we have resumed foreclosure proceedings with respect to certain customers in bankruptcy and with FHA-insured loans. The implementation of changes in procedures and controls, including loss mitigation procedures related to our ability to recover on FHA insurance-related claims, as well as governmental, regulatory and judicial actions, may result in continuing delays in foreclosure proceedings and foreclosure sales, as well as creating obstacles to the collection of certain fees and expenses, in both judicial and non-judicial foreclosures. For additional information on the review of our foreclosure processes, see
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Other Mortgage-related Matters
on page
66
.
Restructured Loans
Nonperforming loans also include certain loans that have been modified in TDRs where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Corporation’s loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructuring and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance under revised payment terms for a reasonable period, generally six months. Nonperforming TDRs, excluding those modified loans in the Countrywide PCI loan portfolio, are included in Table
42
.
As a result of accounting guidance on PCI loans, beginning January 1, 2010, modifications of loans in the PCI loan portfolio do not result in removal of the loan from the PCI loan pool. TDRs in the consumer real estate portfolio that were removed from the PCI loan portfolio prior to the adoption of this accounting guidance were $1.9 billion and $2.1 billion at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, of which $474 million and $426 million were nonperforming. These nonperforming loans are excluded from Table
42
.
101
Nonperforming consumer real estate TDRs, included in Table
42
, as a percentage of total nonperforming consumer loans and foreclosed properties, increased to 21 percent at
September 30, 2011
from 16 percent at
December 31, 2010
.

|
Consumer loans may be returned to performing status when all principal and interest is current and full repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest is expected, or when the loan otherwise becomes well-secured and is in the process of collection. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months.
|
|
(4)
|
Our policy is not to classify consumer credit card and consumer loans not secured by real estate as nonperforming; therefore, the charge-offs on these loans have no impact on nonperforming activity and accordingly are excluded from this table.
|
|
(5)
|
At
September 30, 2011
,
68 percent
of nonperforming loans 180 days or more past due and were written down through charge-offs to
64 percent
of the unpaid principal balance.
|
|
(6)
|
Outstanding consumer loans exclude loans accounted for under the fair value option.
|
Our policy i
s to record any losses in the value of foreclosed properties as a reduction in the allowance for loan and lease losses during the first 90 days after transfer of a loan into foreclosed properties. Thereafter, all gains and losses in value are recorded in noninterest expense. New foreclosed properties in the table above are net of
$85 million
and
$158 million
of charge-offs for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
and
2010
, recorded during the first 90 days after transfer. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
and
2010
, new foreclosed properties in the table above are net of
$245 million
and
$554 million
of charge-offs, recorded during the first 90 days after transfer.
We also work with customers that are experiencing financial difficulty by modifying credit card and other consumer loans, while complying with Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) guidelines. Substantially all of our credit card and other consumer loan modifications involve a reduction in the cardholder’s interest rate on the account and placing the customer on a fixed payment plan not exceeding 60 months, all of which are considered to be TDRs (the renegotiated TDR portfolio). We make modifications primarily through internal renegotiation programs utilizing direct customer contact, but may also utilize external renegotiation programs. The renegotiated TDR portfolio is excluded from Table
42
, as substantially all of these loans remain on accrual status until either charged-off or paid in full. At
September 30, 2011
, our renegotiated TDR portfolio was
$8.2 billion
, of which
$6.3 billion
was current or less than
102
30 days past due under the modified terms compared to
$11.4 billion
at
December 31, 2010
, of which
$8.7 billion
was current or less than 30 days past due under the modified terms. The decline in the renegotiated TDR portfolio was primarily driven by lower new program enrollments as well as attrition throughout the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
. For more information on the renegotiated TDR portfolio, see
Note 6 – Outstanding Loans and Leases
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
As a result of the new accounting guidance on TDRs, we recorded $52 million of consumer loan modifications that in previous periods had not been classified as TDRs. These additions did not have a significant impact on our allowance for credit losses or provision expense. For additional information, see
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.

Commercial Portfolio Credit Risk Management
|
Commercial credit risk is evaluated and managed with the goal that concentrations of credit exposure do not result in undesirable levels of risk. We review, measure and manage concentrations of credit exposure by industry, product, geography, customer relationship and loan size. We also review, measure and manage commercial real estate loans by geographic location and property type. In addition, within our international portfolio, we evaluate exposures by region and by country. Tables
48
,
53
,
57
and
58
summarize our concentrations. We also utilize syndications of exposure to third parties, loan sales, hedging and other risk mitigation techniques to manage the size and risk profile of the commercial credit portfolio.
For information on our accounting policies regarding delinquencies, nonperforming status and net charge-offs for the commercial portfolio, see Commercial Portfolio Credit Risk Management on page 83
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
and

Commercial Credit Portfolio
|
During the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
, commercial loans continued to show stabilization relative to the same periods in
2010
. Growth in non-U.S. corporate loans and trade finance was driven by higher client demand, enterprise-wide initiatives and regional economic conditions. U.S. commercial loans, excluding loans accounted for under the fair value option, increased at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to continued growth across the portfolio, net of securities-based lending loans that were transferred to the consumer portfolio in the first quarter of 2011. Commercial real estate loans
decreased
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
as net paydowns and sales outpaced new originations and renewals, and charge-offs continued to reduce exposure, particularly in higher risk portfolios.
Reservable criticized balances, net charge-offs and nonperforming loans, leases and foreclosed property balances in the commercial credit portfolio declined at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
. The reductions in reservable criticized and non-performing loans, leases and foreclosed property were primarily in the commercial real estate and U.S. commercial portfolios. Commercial real estate continued to show signs of stabilization during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
in both the homebuilder and non-homebuilder portfolios. However, levels of stressed commercial real estate loans remain elevated. The
103
reduction in U.S. commercial loans was driven by broad-based improvements in terms of clients, industries and lines of business. Most other credit indicators across the remaining commercial portfolios also improved.

presents commercial credit exposure by type for utilized, unfunded and total binding committed credit exposure. Commercial utilized credit exposure includes SBLCs, financial guarantees, bankers’ acceptances and commercial letters of credit for which the Corporation is legally bound to advance funds under prescribed conditions, during a specified period. Although funds have not yet been advanced, these exposure types are considered utilized for credit risk management purposes. Total commercial committed credit exposure
increased
$8.5 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
driven primarily by increases in loans and leases and derivative assets, partially offset by decreases in SBLCs, LHFS and bankers' acceptances.
Total commercial utilized credit exposure
increased
$7.1 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
. Utilized loans and leases increased as growth in our international franchise was partially offset by run-off in the commercial real estate portfolio and the transfer of securities-based lending exposures from our U.S. commercial portfolio to the consumer portfolio in the first quarter of 2011. The utilization rate for loans and leases, SBLCs and financial guarantees, and bankers’ acceptances was
57
percent at both
September 30, 2011

Table
47
presents commercial utilized reservable criticized exposure by product type. Criticized exposure corresponds to the Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful asset categories as defined by regulatory authorities. In addition to reservable loans and leases, excluding those accounted for under the fair value option, exposure includes SBLCs, financial guarantees, bankers’ acceptances and commercial letters of credit for which we are legally bound to advance funds under prescribed conditions, during a specified time period. Total commercial utilized reservable criticized exposure
decreased
$11.7 billion
, or
27
percent, at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to broad-based decreases across most portfolios, primarily in commercial real estate and U.S. commercial product types driven largely by continued paydowns, charge-offs and ratings upgrades outpacing downgrades. Despite the improvements, utilized reservable criticized levels remain elevated, particularly in commercial real estate and U.S. small business commercial. At
September 30, 2011
, approximately 85 percent of commercial utilized reservable criticized exposure was secured compared to 88 percent at
December 31, 2010
.

|
U.S. Commercial
At
September 30, 2011
, 56 percent of the U.S. commercial loan portfolio, excluding small business, was managed in
Global Commercial Banking
and 28 percent in
GBAM
. The remaining 16 percent was mostly in
GWIM
(business-purpose loans for wealthy clients). U.S. commercial loans, excluding loans accounted for under the fair value option,
increased
$3.4 billion
, net of securities-based lending loans that were transferred to the consumer portfolio in the first quarter of 2011, due to continued growth across the portfolio compared to
December 31, 2010
. Compared to
December 31, 2010
, reservable criticized balances and nonperforming loans and leases declined
$4.3 billion
and
$935 million
. The declines were broad-based in terms of clients and industries and were driven by improved client credit profiles and liquidity. Net charge-offs
decreased
$
128 million
and $
554 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
.
Commercial Real Estate
The commercial real estate portfolio is predominantly managed in
Global Commercial Banking
and consists of loans made primarily to public and private developers, homebuilders and commercial real estate firms. Outstanding loans
decreased
$8.5 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to paydowns and sales, which outpaced new originations and renewals. The portfolio remains diversified across property types and geographic regions. California represents the largest state concentration at 19 percent of commercial real estate loans and leases at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. For more information on geographic and property concentrations, see Table
48
.
Credit quality for commercial real estate has continued to show signs of stabilization; however, we expect that elevated unemployment and ongoing pressure on vacancy and rental rates will continue to affect primarily the non-homebuilder portfolio. Nonperforming commercial real estate loans and foreclosed properties
decreased
21
percent compared to
December 31, 2010
, split evenly across the homebuilder and non-homebuilder portfolios. The decline in nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties in the non-homebuilder portfolio was driven by decreases in the office, land and land development and shopping centers/retail property types. Reservable criticized balances
decreased
$6.9 billion
primarily due to declines in the office, shopping centers/retail and multi-family rental property types in the non-homebuilder portfolio and stabilization in the homebuilder portfolio. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, net charge-offs
decreased
$114 million
and
$923 million
compared to the same periods in
2010
due to improvement in both the homebuilder and non-homebuilder portfolio.

Table
48
presents outstanding commercial real estate loans by geographic region which is based on the geographic location of the collateral and property type. Commercial real estate primarily includes commercial loans and leases secured by non-owner-occupied real estate which is dependent on the sale or lease of the real estate as the primary source of repayment.

For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we continued to see stabilization in the homebuilder portfolio. Certain portions of the non-homebuilder portfolio remain at risk as occupancy rates, rental rates and commercial property prices remain under pressure. We utilize a number of proactive risk mitigation initiatives to reduce utilized and potential exposure in the commercial real estate portfolios including refinement of our credit standards, additional transfers of deteriorating exposures to management by independent special asset officers and the pursuit of alternative resolution methods to achieve the best results for our customers and the Corporation.

Net charge-off ratios are calculated as annualized net charge-offs divided by average outstanding loans excluding loans accounted for under the fair value option.
|
At
September 30, 2011
, total committed non-homebuilder exposure was $54.2 billion compared to $64.2 billion at
December 31, 2010
, with the decrease due to exposure reductions in most non-homebuilder property types. Non-homebuilder nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties were
$3.9 billion
and
$4.6 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, which represented 10.21 percent and 10.08 percent of total non-homebuilder loans and foreclosed properties. Non-homebuilder utilized reservable criticized exposure
decreased
to
$11.9 billion
, or 29.00 percent of non-homebuilder utilized reservable exposure, at
September 30, 2011
compared to
$17.1 billion
, or 35.55 percent, at
December 31, 2010
. The decrease in reservable criticized exposure was driven primarily by office, shopping centers/retail and multi-family rental property types. For the non-homebuilder portfolio, net charge-offs
decreased
$59 million
and
$668 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
, due in part to resolution of criticized assets through payoffs and sales.
108
At
September 30, 2011
, we had committed homebuilder exposure of $4.2 billion compared to $6.0 billion at
December 31, 2010
, of which $2.7 billion and $4.3 billion were funded secured loans. The decline in homebuilder committed exposure was due to repayments, net charge-offs, reductions in new home construction and continued risk mitigation initiatives with market conditions providing fewer origination opportunities to offset the reductions. At
September 30, 2011
, homebuilder nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties
decreased
$715 million
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to repayments, a decline in the volume of loans being downgraded to nonaccrual status and net charge-offs. Homebuilder utilized reservable criticized exposure
decreased
by
$1.6 billion
to
$1.7 billion
due to repayments and net charge-offs. The nonperforming loans, leases and foreclosed properties and the utilized reservable criticized ratios for the homebuilder portfolio were 42.37 percent and 59.37 percent at
September 30, 2011
compared to 42.80 percent and 74.27 percent at
December 31, 2010
. Net charge-offs for the homebuilder portfolio
decreased
$55 million
and
$255 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the commercial real estate loan portfolio included $12.8 billion and $19.1 billion of funded construction and land development loans that were originated to fund the construction and/or rehabilitation of commercial properties. The decline in construction and land development loans was driven by repayments, net charge-offs and continued risk mitigation initiatives which outpaced new originations. This portfolio is mostly secured and diversified across property types and geographic regions but faces continuing challenges in the housing and rental markets. Weak rental demand and cash flows along with depressed property valuations have resulted in elevated levels of reservable criticized exposure, nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties and net charge-offs. Reservable criticized construction and land development loans totaled $6.1 billion and $10.5 billion, and nonperforming construction and land development loans and foreclosed properties totaled $2.7 billion and $4.0 billion at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. During a property’s construction phase, interest income is typically paid from interest reserves that are established at the inception of the loan. As construction is completed and the property is put into service, these interest reserves are depleted and interest payments from operating cash flows begin. Loans continue to be classified as construction loans until they are refinanced. We do not recognize interest income on nonperforming loans regardless of the existence of an interest reserve.
Non-U.S. Commercial
The non-U.S. commercial loan portfolio is managed primarily in
GBAM
. Outstanding loans, excluding loans accounted for under the fair value option,
increased
$16.4 billion
from
December 31, 2010
primarily in corporate loans and trade finance due to client demand, enterprise-wide initiatives and regional economic conditions. For additional information on the non-U.S. commercial portfolio, see
Non-U.S. Portfolio
on page
115
.
U.S. Small Business Commercial
The U.S. small business commercial loan portfolio is comprised of business card and small business loans managed in
Card Services
and
Global Commercial Banking
. U.S. small business commercial net charge-offs
decreased
$224 million
and
$767 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
driven by improvements in delinquency, collections, and bankruptcies resulting from an improved economic environment as well as the reduction of higher risk vintages and the impact of higher credit quality originations. Of the U.S. small business commercial net charge-offs, 74 percent were credit card-related products for both the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, compared to 78 percent and 79 percent for the same periods in
2010
.
Commercial Loans Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option
The portfolio of commercial loans accounted for under the fair value option is managed primarily in
GBAM
. Outstanding commercial loans accounted for under the fair value option
increased
$3.2 billion
to an aggregate fair value of
$6.5 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
due primarily to increased corporate borrowings under bank credit facilities. We recorded net losses of
$448 million
and
$320 million
resulting from new originations, loans being paid off at par value and changes in the fair value of the loan portfolio during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to net gains of
$93 million
and
$139 million
for the same periods in
2010
. These amounts were primarily attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk, were recorded in other income and do not reflect the results of hedging activities.
In addition, unfunded lending commitments and letters of credit accounted for under the fair value option had an aggregate fair value of
$1.3 billion
and
$866 million
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
which was recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The associated aggregate notional amount of unfunded lending commitments and letters of credit accounted for under the fair value option were
$27.7 billion
and
$27.3 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
we recorded net losses of
$559 million
and
$503 million
from new originations, terminations and changes in the fair value of commitments and letters of credit compared to net gains of
$117 million
and
$50 million
during the same periods in
2010
. These amounts were primarily attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk, were recorded in other income and do not reflect the results of hedging activities.

Nonperforming Commercial Loans, Leases and Foreclosed Properties Activity
Table
51
presents the nonperforming commercial loans, leases and foreclosed properties activity during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
and
2010
. Nonperforming commercial loans and leases decreased
$806 million
and
$2.5 billion
during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
to
$7.3 billion
compared to $9.8 billion at
December 31, 2010
driven by paydowns and charge-offs. Approximately 96 percent of commercial nonperforming loans, leases and foreclosed properties are secured and approximately 53 percent are contractually current. In addition, commercial nonperforming loans are carried at approximately 71 percent of their unpaid principal balance before consideration of the allowance for loan and lease losses as the carrying value of these loans has been reduced to the estimated property value less estimated costs to sell.

Commercial loans and leases may be returned to performing status when all principal and interest is current and full repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest is expected or when the loan otherwise becomes well-secured and is in the process of collection. TDRs are generally classified as performing after a sustained period of demonstrated payment performance.

Business card loans are not classified as nonperforming; therefore, the charge-offs on these loans have no impact on nonperforming activity and accordingly are excluded from this table.

As a result of the new accounting guidance on TDRs, we recorded $1.1 billion of commercial loan modifications that in previous periods had not been classified as TDRs. At
September 30, 2011
, this amount includes $519 million of performing commercial loans that were not previously considered to be impaired loans. These newly identified TDRs did not have a significant impact on our allowance for credit losses
or provision expense. For additional information, see
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
Table
52
presents our commercial TDRs by product type and status. U.S. small business commercial TDRs are comprised of renegotiated business card loans and are not classified as nonperforming as they are charged off no later than the end of the month in which the loan becomes 180 days past due.

Industry Concentrations
|
Table
53
presents commercial committed and utilized credit exposure by industry and the total net credit default protection purchased to cover the funded and unfunded portions of certain credit exposures. Our commercial credit exposure is diversified across a broad range of industries. The
increase
in commercial committed exposure of
$8.5 billion
from
December 31, 2010
to
September 30, 2011
was concentrated in Banks and Diversified Financials, partially offset by lower Real Estate, Insurance and Other committed exposure.
Industry limits are used internally to manage industry concentrations and are based on committed exposures and capital usage that are allocated on an industry-by-industry basis. A risk management framework is in place to set and approve industry limits as well as to provide ongoing monitoring. Management’s Credit Risk Committee (CRC) oversees industry limit governance.
Diversified financials, our largest industry concentration, experienced an
increase
in committed exposure of
$9.0 billion
, or
11
percent, at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
. This
increase
was driven primarily by higher traded products exposure due to widening of spreads in relation to market dislocation stemming from concerns related to the European debt crisis.
Real estate, our second largest industry concentration, experienced a
decline
in committed exposure of
$8.8 billion
, or
12
percent, at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
due primarily to paydowns and sales which outpaced new originations and renewals, as well as charge-offs. Real estate construction and land development exposure represented 22 percent of the total real estate industry committed exposure at
September 30, 2011
, down from 27 percent at
December 31, 2010
. For more information on the commercial real estate and related portfolios, see Commercial Real Estate on page
106
.
Committed exposure in the banking industry
increased
$10.6 billion
, or
36
percent, at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
which was primarily due to increases in trade finance as a result of momentum from regional economies and growth initiatives in foreign markets. Insurance, including monolines committed exposure,
decreased
$6.7 billion
, or
27
percent, at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
due primarily to the settlement/termination of monoline positions. For more information on our monoline exposure, see
Monoline and Related Exposure
on page
112
. Other committed exposure
decreased
$9.8 billion
, or
57
percent, at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
due to reductions primarily in traded products exposure.
The Corporation’s committed state and municipal exposure of $46.0 billion at
September 30, 2011
consisted of $34.0 billion of commercial utilized exposure (including $18.1 billion of funded loans, $11.8 billion of SBLCs and $3.7 billion of derivative assets) and unutilized commercial exposure of $12.0 billion (primarily unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit) and is reported in the government and public education industry in Table
53
. Economic conditions continue to impact debt issued by state and local municipalities and certain exposures to these municipalities. While historically default rates were low, as part of our overall and ongoing risk management processes, we continually monitor these exposures through a rigorous review process. Additionally, internal communications surrounding certain at-risk counterparties and/or sectors are regularly circulated ensuring exposure levels are in compliance with established concentration guidelines.
111
Monoline and Related Exposure
Monoline exposure is reported in the insurance industry and managed under insurance portfolio industry limits. Direct loan exposure to monolines consisted of revolvers in the amount of $51 million at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.
We have indirect exposure to monolines primarily in the form of guarantees supporting our loans, investment portfolios, securitizations and credit-enhanced securities as part of our public finance business and other selected products. Such indirect exposure exists when we purchase credit protection from monolines to hedge all or a portion of the credit risk on certain credit exposures including loans and CDOs. We underwrite our public finance exposure by evaluating the underlying securities.
We also have indirect exposure to monolines primarily in the form of guarantees supporting our mortgage and other loan sales. Indirect exposure may exist when credit protection was purchased from monolines to hedge all or a portion of the credit risk on certain mortgage and other loan exposures. A loss may occur when we are required to repurchase a loan and the market value of the loan has declined or we are required to indemnify or provide recourse for a guarantor’s loss. For additional information regarding our exposure to representations and warranties, see
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations – Representations and Warranties
on page
58
and
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, we terminated all of our monoline contracts referencing super senior ABS CDOs. In addition, we reclassified approximately $1.6 billion ($4.3 billion gross receivable less impairment) of net monoline exposure from derivative assets to other assets because of the inherent default risk and given that these contracts no longer provide a hedge benefit, they are no longer considered derivative trading instruments. This exposure relates to a single counterparty and is recorded at fair value based on current net recovery projections. The net recovery projections take into account the present value of projected payments expected to be received from the counterparty.
Monoline derivative credit exposure at
September 30, 2011
had a notional value of
$22.1 billion
compared to
$38.4 billion
at
December 31, 2010
. Mark-to-market monoline derivative credit exposure was
$1.9 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
$9.2 billion
at
December 31, 2010
with the
decrease
driven by positive valuation adjustments on legacy assets, terminated monoline contracts and the reclassification of net monoline exposure to other assets mentioned above. The counterparty credit valuation adjustment related to monoline derivative exposure was
$500 million
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
$5.3 billion
at
December 31, 2010
. This adjustment reduced our net mark-to-market exposure to
$1.4 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
$3.9 billion
at
December 31, 2010
and covered
26
percent of the mark-to-market exposure at
September 30, 2011
, down from
57
percent at
December 31, 2010
. We do not hold collateral against these derivative exposures. For more information on our monoline exposure, termination of certain monoline contracts and the transfer of monoline exposure to other assets see
GBAM
on page
47
.
We also have indirect exposure to monolines as we invest in securities where the issuers have purchased wraps (i.e., insurance). For example, municipalities and corporations purchase insurance in order to reduce their cost of borrowing. If the ratings agencies downgrade the monolines, the credit rating of the bond may fall and may have an adverse impact on the market value of the security. In the case of default, we first look to the underlying securities and then to the purchased insurance for recovery. Investments in securities issued by municipalities and corporations with purchased wraps at
September 30, 2011
had a notional value of $773 million compared to $2.4 billion at
December 31, 2010
. Mark-to-market investment exposure was $659 million at
September 30, 2011
compared to $2.2 billion at
December 31, 2010
.

We purchase credit protection to cover the funded portion as well as the unfunded portion of certain credit exposures. To lower the cost of obtaining our desired credit protection levels, credit exposure may be added within an industry, borrower or counterparty group by selling protection.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, net notional credit default protection purchased in our credit derivatives portfolio to hedge our funded and unfunded exposures for which we elected the fair value option, as well as certain other credit exposures, was
$21.6 billion
and
$20.1 billion
. The mark-to-market effects, including the cost of net credit default protection hedging our credit exposure, resulted in net gains of $623 million and $415 million during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to net losses of $293 million and $316 million for the same periods in
2010
.
113
The average Value-at-Risk (VaR) for these credit derivative hedges was $62 million and $55 million during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to $53 million and $57 million for the same periods in
2010
. The average VaR for the related credit exposure was $77 million and $62 million during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to $74 million and $65 million for the same periods in
2010
. There is a diversification effect between the net credit default protection hedging our credit exposure and the related credit exposure such that the combined average VaR was $40 million and $37 million for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to $41 million and $43 million for the same periods in
2010
. See
Trading Risk Management
on page

In addition to our net notional credit default protection purchased to cover the funded and unfunded portion of certain credit exposures, credit derivatives are used for market-making activities for clients and establishing positions intended to profit from directional or relative value changes. We execute the majority of our credit derivative trades in the OTC market with large, multinational financial institutions, including broker/dealers and, to a lesser degree, with a variety of other investors. Because these transactions are executed in the OTC market, we are subject to settlement risk. We are also subject to credit risk in the event that these counterparties fail to perform under the terms of these contracts. In most cases, credit derivative transactions are executed on a daily margin basis. Therefore, events such as a credit downgrade, depending on the ultimate rating level, or a breach of credit covenants would typically require an increase in the amount of collateral required of the counterparty, where applicable, and/or allow us to take additional protective measures such as early termination of all trades.
114
Table
56
presents the total contract/notional amount of credit derivatives outstanding and includes both purchased and written credit derivatives. The credit risk amounts are measured as the net replacement cost in the event the counterparties with contracts in a gain position to us fail to perform under the terms of those contracts. For information on the performance risk of our written credit derivatives, see
Note 4 – Derivatives
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
The credit risk amounts discussed above and presented in Table
56
take into consideration the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements while amounts disclosed in
Note 4 – Derivatives
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
are shown on a gross basis. Credit risk reflects the potential benefit from offsetting exposure to non-credit derivative products with the same counterparties that may be netted upon the occurrence of certain events, thereby reducing our overall exposure.

Counterparty Credit Risk Valuation Adjustments
|
We record a counterparty credit risk valuation adjustment on certain derivative assets, including our credit default protection purchased in order to properly reflect the credit quality of the counterparty. These adjustments are necessary as the market quotes on derivatives do not fully reflect the credit risk of the counterparties to the derivative assets. We consider collateral and legally enforceable master netting agreements that mitigate our credit exposure to each counterparty in determining the counterparty credit risk valuation adjustment. All or a portion of these counterparty credit risk valuation adjustments are subsequently adjusted due to changes in the value of the derivative contract, collateral and creditworthiness of the counterparty.
During the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
, credit valuation gains (losses) of
$(1.6) billion
and
$(2.0) billion
(
$(81) million
and
$(704) million
, net of hedges) compared to credit valuation gains (losses) of
$400 million
and
$(27) million
(
$183 million
and
$(188) million
, net of hedges) for the same periods in
2010
were recognized in trading account profits for counterparty credit risk related to derivative assets. For additional information on gains or losses related to the counterparty credit risk on derivative assets, see
Note 4 – Derivatives
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.

Non-U.S. Portfolio
|
Our non-U.S. credit and trading portfolios are subject to country risk. We define country risk as the risk of loss from unfavorable economic and political conditions, currency fluctuations, social instability and changes in government policies. A risk management framework is in place to measure, monitor and manage non-U.S. risk and exposures. Management oversight of country risk, including cross-border risk, is provided by the Regional Risk Committee, a subcommittee of the CRC.
Non-U.S. exposure includes credit exposure net of local liabilities, securities and other investments issued by or domiciled in countries other than the U.S. Total non-U.S. exposure can be adjusted for externally guaranteed loans outstanding and certain collateral types. Exposures that are subject to external guarantees are reported under the country of the guarantor. Exposures with tangible collateral are reflected in the country where the collateral is held. For securities received, other than cross-border resale agreements, outstandings are assigned to the domicile of the issuer of the securities. Resale agreements are generally presented based on the domicile of the counterparty consistent with FFIEC reporting requirements.
115
At
September 30, 2011
, the U.K. had total cross-border exposure of
$35.2 billion
, representing
1.58 percent
of our total assets. The U.K. was the only country where cross-border exposure exceeded one percent of our total assets. At
September 30, 2011
, Japan, France and Canada had total cross-border exposure of
$21.1 billion
,
$17.1 billion
and
$17.0 billion
representing
0.95 percent
,
0.77 percent
and
0.76 percent
of our total assets, respectively. Japan, France and Canada were the only other countries that had total cross-border exposure that exceeded
0.75 percent
of our total assets at
September 30, 2011
.
As presented in
Table 57
, non-U.S. exposure to borrowers or counterparties in emerging markets
increased
$6.8 billion
to
$71.8 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
$65.1 billion
at
December 31, 2010
primarily due to an increase in Latin America. Non-U.S. exposure to borrowers or counterparties in emerging markets represented
30 percent
and
25 percent
of total non-U.S. exposure at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.

There is no generally accepted definition of emerging markets. The definition that we use includes all countries in Asia Pacific excluding Japan, Australia and New Zealand; all countries in Latin America excluding Cayman Islands and Bermuda; all countries in Middle East and Africa; and all countries in Central and Eastern Europe. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, there was
$1.7 billion
and
$460 million
in emerging markets exposure accounted for under the fair value option.

Derivative assets are carried at fair value and have been reduced by the amount of cash collateral applied of
$1.9 billion
and
$1.2 billion
at
September 30, 2011

Local country exposure includes amounts payable to the Corporation by borrowers with a country of residence in which the credit is booked regardless of the currency in which the claim is denominated. Local funding or liabilities are subtracted from local exposures consistent with FFIEC reporting requirements. Total amount of available local liabilities funding local country exposure was
$17.1 billion
and
$15.7 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. Local liabilities at
September 30, 2011
in Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East and Africa were
$15.9 billion
,
$868 million
and
$441 million
, respectively, of which
$7.5 billion
was in Singapore,
$2.1 billion
in Hong Kong,
$2.0 billion
in China,
$1.8 billion
in India,
$871 million
in Korea,
$782 million
in Mexico. There were no other countries with available local liabilities funding local country exposure greater than $500 million.

At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
,
63 percent
and
70 percent
of the emerging markets exposure was in Asia Pacific. Emerging markets exposure in Asia Pacific
decreased
by
$84 million
with the sale of approximately half of our investment in CCB offsetting growth in India, South Korea and Hong Kong as efforts to expand in non-U.S. markets continued. For more information on our CCB investment, see

.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
,
26 percent
and
21 percent
of the emerging markets exposure was in Latin America. Latin America emerging markets exposure
increased
$4.7 billion
driven by an increase in securities in Brazil and Mexico related primarily to risk diversification management initiatives and a continued focus on expansion in the non-U.S. markets.
At both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
,
six
percent of the emerging markets exposure was in the Middle East and Africa. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
,
five
percent and
three
percent of the emerging markets exposure was in Central and Eastern Europe.
Certain European countries, including Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain, have experienced varying degrees of financial stress. Risks from the continued debt crisis in Europe could continue to disrupt the financial markets which could have a detrimental impact on global economic conditions and sovereign and non-sovereign debt in these countries. Although the financial relief plan announced by European leaders on October 27, 2011 initially drew favorable responses from the financial markets, details remain to be negotiated and implementation is subject to certain contingencies and risks. There remains considerable uncertainty as to future developments in the European debt crisis and the impact on financial markets. In October 2011, Moody’s downgraded Spain’s Aa2 sovereign credit rating two levels to A1 and downgraded Italy's Aa2 sovereign credit rating three levels to A2.
Table 58
shows our direct sovereign and non-sovereign exposures, excluding consumer credit card exposure, in these countries at
September 30, 2011
. The total exposure to these countries was
$14.6 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
$15.8 billion
at
December 31, 2010
, of which
$1.7 billion
and
$1.9 billion
was total sovereign exposure. The total sovereign exposure amounts do not reflect net notional credit default protection purchased of
$1.3 billion
and
$1.2 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. In addition to our direct sovereign and non-sovereign exposures set forth above, a significant deterioration of the European debt crisis could result in material reductions in the value of sovereign debt and other asset classes, disruptions in capital markets, widening of credit spreads, loss of investor confidence in the financial services industry, a slowdown in global economic activity and other adverse developments. For additional information on the debt crisis in Europe, see
Item 1A. Risk Factors
of the Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
June 30, 2011
.

Our non-sovereign exposures are comprised of exposure to corporations and financial institutions, or those entities that are non-governmental or are not owned or controlled by the government. Loans, derivatives and other financing exposures are not reduced by hedges, whereas securities and other investments are reduced by correlated hedges to the extent that there is an equal or greater amount of exposure on a single name basis. Derivative assets as presented in
Table 58
are not offset by corresponding derivative liabilities but are offset only by cash collateral applied.

Provision for Credit Losses
|
The provision for credit losses
decreased
$2.0 billion
to
$3.4 billion
, and
$12.8 billion
to
$10.5 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
. The provision for credit losses for the consumer portfolio decreased $1.3 billion to $3.5 billion, and $9.1 billion to $11.2 billion for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
reflecting improving economic conditions and improvement in current and projected levels of delinquencies, collections and bankruptcies in the U.S. consumer credit card and unsecured consumer lending portfolios. Also contributing to the improvement were lower credit costs in the non-PCI home equity loan portfolio due to improving portfolio trends. Partially offsetting these improvements were higher credit costs in the residential mortgage portfolio reflecting the impact of refreshed valuations of underlying collateral. For the consumer PCI loan portfolios, we recorded no reserve increases in the
three months ended September 30, 2011
. Updates to our expected principal cash flows in the first half of 2011 resulted in an
increase
in reserves of $2.0 billion for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
reflecting further reductions in expected principal cash flows due primarily to our updated home price outlook. This compared to increases of $292 million and $1.4 billion during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
.
The provision for credit losses for the commercial portfolio, including the provision for unfunded lending commitments, decreased $653 million to a benefit of $59 million, and $3.8 billion to a benefit of $695 million for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to the same periods in
2010
due to continued economic improvement and the resulting impact on property values in the commercial real estate portfolio, improvement in current and projected levels of delinquencies and bankruptcies in the U.S. small business commercial portfolio, and improvement in borrower credit profiles across the remainder of the portfolio.
|
Allowance for Credit Losses
|
|
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
|
The allowance for loan and lease losses is comprised of two components as described below. We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses based on the total of these two components. The allowance for loan and lease losses excludes LHFS and loans accounted for under the fair value option as the fair value reflects a credit risk component.
The first component of the allowance for loan and lease losses covers nonperforming commercial loans and performing commercial loans that have been modified in a TDR, consumer real estate loans that have been modified in a TDR, renegotiated credit card, unsecured consumer and small business loans. These loans are subject to impairment measurement based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate, or in certain circumstances, impairment may also be based upon the collateral value or the loan's observable market price if available. Impairment measurement for the renegotiated credit card, unsecured consumer and small business TDR portfolio is based on the present value of projected cash flows discounted using the average portfolio contractual interest rate, excluding promotionally priced loans, in effect prior to restructuring and prior to any risk-based or penalty-based increase in rate on the restructured loans. For purposes of computing this specific loss component of the allowance, larger impaired loans are evaluated individually and smaller impaired loans are evaluated as a pool using historical loss experience for the respective product types and risk ratings of the loans.
The second component of the allowance for loan and lease losses covers the remaining consumer and commercial loans and leases which have incurred losses that are not yet individually identifiable. The allowance for consumer and certain homogeneous commercial loan and lease products is based on aggregated portfolio evaluations, generally by product type. Loss forecast models are utilized that consider a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss experience, estimated defaults or foreclosures based on portfolio trends, delinquencies, economic trends and credit scores. Our consumer real estate loss forecast model estimates the portion of loans that will default based on individual loan attributes, the most significant of which are refreshed LTV or CLTV, and borrower credit score as well as vintage and geography, all of which are further broken down into current delinquency status. Incorporating refreshed LTV and CLTV into our probability of default allows us to factor the impact of changes in home prices into our allowance for loan and lease losses. These loss forecast models are updated on a quarterly basis to incorporate information reflecting the current economic environment. Included within this second component of the allowance for loan and lease losses and determined separately from the procedures outlined above are reserves which are maintained to cover uncertainties that affect our estimate of probable losses including domestic and global economic uncertainty, large single name defaults, significant events which could disrupt financial markets and model imprecision. As of
September 30, 2011
, the loss forecast process resulted in reductions in the allowance for most consumer portfolios, particularly the credit card and direct/indirect portfolios.
119
The allowance for commercial loan and lease losses is established by product type after analyzing historical loss experience by internal risk rating, current economic conditions, industry performance trends, geographic and obligor concentrations within each portfolio and any other pertinent information. The statistical models for commercial loans are generally updated annually and utilize the Corporation's historical database of actual defaults and other data. The loan risk ratings and composition of the commercial portfolios are updated at least quarterly to incorporate the most recent data reflecting the current economic environment. For risk-rated commercial loans, we estimate the probability of default and the loss given default (LGD) based on the Corporation's historical experience of defaults and credit losses. Factors considered when assessing the internal risk rating include the value of the underlying collateral, if applicable, the industry in which the obligor operates, the obligor's liquidity and other financial indicators, and other quantitative and qualitative factors relevant to the obligor's credit risk. When estimating the allowance for loan and lease losses, management relies not only on models derived from historical experience but also on its judgment in considering the effect on probable losses inherent in the portfolios due to the current macroeconomic environment and trends, inherent uncertainty in models and other qualitative factors. As of
September 30, 2011
, the loan risk ratings and portfolio composition resulted in reductions in the allowance for all commercial portfolios.
We monitor differences between estimated and actual incurred loan and lease losses. This monitoring process includes periodic assessments by senior management of loan and lease portfolios and the models used to estimate incurred losses in those portfolios.
Additions to, or reductions of, the allowance for loan and lease losses generally are recorded through charges or credits to the provision for credit losses. Credit exposures deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan and lease losses. Recoveries of previously charged off amounts are credited to the allowance for loan and lease losses.
The allowance for loan and lease losses for the consumer portfolio as presented in Table
60
was
$30.3 billion
at
September 30, 2011
, a
decrease
of
$4.5 billion
from
December 31, 2010
. This
decrease
was primarily due to improving credit quality in the U.S. credit card portfolio within
Card Services
. For the consumer PCI loan portfolios we recorded no reserve increases in the
three months ended September 30, 2011
. Updates to our expected principal cash flows in the first half of 2011 resulted in an
increase
in reserves of $2.0 billion for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
in the discontinued real estate, home equity and residential mortgage portfolios.
The allowance for loan and lease losses for the commercial portfolio was
$4.8 billion
at
September 30, 2011
, a
$2.3 billion
decrease
from
December 31, 2010
. The
decrease
was driven by improvement in the economy and the resulting impact on property values in the commercial real estate portfolio, improvement in projected delinquencies in the U.S. small business commercial portfolio, primarily within
Card Services
, and stronger borrower credit profiles in the U.S. commercial portfolios as a result of improving economic conditions, primarily in
Global Commercial Banking
and
GBAM
.
The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases outstanding was
3.81 percent
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
4.47 percent
at
December 31, 2010
. The
decrease
in the ratio was mostly due to improved credit quality and economic conditions which led to the reserve reductions discussed above. The
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
ratios above include the PCI loan portfolio. Excluding the PCI loan portfolio, the allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases outstanding was
3.02 percent
at
September 30, 2011
compared to 3.94 percent at
December 31, 2010
.
Absent unexpected deterioration in the economy, we expect reductions in the allowance for loan and lease losses to continue in future quarters. However, in both consumer and commercial portfolios, we expect these reductions to be moderate compared to those in recent quarters.

Ratios are calculated as allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of loans and leases outstanding excluding loans accounted for under the fair value option. Consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option included residential mortgage loans of
$1.3 billion
and discontinued real estate of
$3.4 billion
at
September 30, 2011
. There were no consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option at
December 31, 2010
. Commercial loans accounted for under the fair value option included U.S. commercial loans of
$1.9 billion
and
$1.6 billion
, non-U.S. commercial loans of
$4.5 billion
and
$1.7 billion
and commercial real estate loans of
$75 million
and
$79 million
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.

$8.2 billion

of valuation reserve presented with the allowance for credit losses related to PCI loans at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.
|
|
Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments
|
In addition to the allowance for loan and lease losses, we also estimate probable losses related to unfunded lending commitments such as letters of credit, financial guarantees, unfunded bankers' acceptances and binding loan commitments, excluding commitments accounted for under the fair value option. Unfunded lending commitments are subject to the same assessment as funded loans, including estimates of probability of default and LGD. Due to the nature of unfunded commitments, the estimate of probable losses must also consider utilization. To estimate the portion of these undrawn commitments that is likely to be drawn by a borrower at the time of estimated default, analyses of the Corporation's historical experience are applied to the unfunded commitments to estimate the funded exposure at default (EAD). The expected loss for unfunded lending commitments is the product of the probability of default, the LGD and the EAD, adjusted for any qualitative factors including economic uncertainty and inherent imprecision in models.
The reserve for unfunded lending commitments at
September 30, 2011
was
$790 million
,
$398 million
lower
than
December 31, 2010
primarily driven by accretion of purchase accounting adjustments on acquired Merrill Lynch unfunded positions and improved credit quality in the unfunded portfolio.

Market Risk Management
|
Market risk is the risk that values of assets and liabilities or revenues will be adversely affected by changes in market conditions such as market movements. This risk is inherent in the financial instruments associated with our operations and/or activities including loans, deposits, securities, short-term borrowings, long-term debt, trading account assets and liabilities, and derivatives. Market-sensitive assets and liabilities are generated through loans and deposits associated with our traditional banking business, customer and other trading operations, the ALM process, credit risk mitigation activities and mortgage banking activities. In the event of market volatility, factors such as underlying market movements and liquidity have an impact on the results of the Corporation. More detailed information on our market risk management process is included on pages
100 through 106
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
|
Trading Risk Management
|
Trading-related revenues represent the amount earned from trading positions, including market-based net interest income, which are taken in a diverse range of financial instruments and markets. Trading account assets and liabilities and derivative positions are reported at fair value. For more information on fair value, see
Note 16 – Fair Value Measurements
to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Trading-related revenues can be volatile and are largely driven by general market conditions and customer demand. Also, trading-related revenues are dependent on the volume and type of transactions, the level of risk assumed, and the volatility of price and rate movements at any given time within the ever-changing market environment.
The Global Markets Risk Committee (GRC), chaired by the Global Markets Risk Executive, has been designated by ALMRC as the primary governance authority for global markets risk management including trading risk management. The GRC’s focus is to take a forward-looking view of the primary credit and market risks impacting
GBAM
and prioritize those that need a proactive risk mitigation strategy. Market risks that impact lines of business outside of
GBAM
are monitored and governed by their respective governance authorities.
The GRC monitors significant daily revenues and losses by business and the primary drivers of the revenues or losses. Thresholds are in place for each of our businesses in order to determine if the revenue or loss is considered to be significant for that business. If any of the thresholds are exceeded, an explanation of the variance is provided to the GRC. The thresholds are developed in coordination with the respective risk managers to highlight those revenues or losses that exceed what is considered to be normal daily income statement volatility.

The histogram below is a graphic depiction of trading volatility and illustrates the daily level of trading-related revenue for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared with the
three months ended June 30, 2011
. During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, positive trading-related revenue was recorded for 69 percent (44 days) of the trading days of which 47 percent (30 days) were daily trading gains of over $25 million, nine percent (six days) of the trading days had losses greater than $25 million, three percent (two days) of trading days had losses greater than $100 million and the largest loss was $119 million. These results can be compared to the
three months ended June 30, 2011
, where positive trading-related revenue was recorded for 95 percent (60 days) of the trading days of which 78 percent (49 days) were daily trading gains of over $25 million, three percent (two days) of the trading days had losses greater than $25 million and the largest loss was $77 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, positive trading-related revenue was recorded for 100 percent (62 days) of the trading days of which 98 percent (61 days) were daily trading gains over $25 million.
To evaluate risk in our trading activities, we focus on the actual and potential volatility of individual positions as well as portfolios. VaR is a key statistic used to measure market risk. In order to manage day-to-day risks, VaR is subject to trading limits both for our overall trading portfolio and within individual businesses. All limit excesses are communicated to management for review.
A VaR model simulates the value of a portfolio under a range of hypothetical scenarios in order to generate a distribution of potential gains and losses. VaR represents the worst loss the portfolio is expected to experience based on historical trends with a given level of confidence and depends on the volatility of the positions in the portfolio and on how strongly their risks are correlated. Within any VaR model, there are significant and numerous assumptions that will differ from company to company. In addition, the accuracy of a VaR model depends on the availability and quality of historical data for each of the positions in the portfolio. A VaR model may require additional modeling assumptions for new products that do not have extensive historical price data or for illiquid positions for which accurate daily prices are not consistently available.
A VaR model is an effective tool in estimating ranges of potential gains and losses on our trading portfolios. There are, however, many limitations inherent in a VaR model as it utilizes historical results over a defined time period to estimate future performance. Historical results may not always be indicative of future results and changes in market conditions or in the composition of the underlying portfolio could have a material impact on the accuracy of the VaR model. In order for the VaR model to reflect current market conditions, we update the historical data underlying our VaR model on a bi-weekly basis and regularly review the assumptions underlying the model. Our VaR model utilizes three years of historical data. This time period was chosen to ensure that the VaR reflects both a broad range of market movements as well as being sensitive to recent changes in market volatility.
125
We continually review, evaluate and enhance our VaR model so that it reflects the material risks in our trading portfolio. Nevertheless, due to the limitations previously discussed, we have historically used the VaR model as only one of the components in managing our trading risk and also use other techniques such as stress testing and desk level limits. Periods of extreme market stress influence the reliability of these techniques to varying degrees.
The accuracy of the VaR methodology is reviewed by backtesting (i.e., comparing actual results against expectations derived from historical data) the VaR results against the daily profit and loss. Graphic representation of the backtesting results with additional explanation of backtesting excesses are reported to the GRC. Backtesting excesses occur when trading losses exceed VaR. Senior management reviews and evaluates the results of these tests. In periods of market stress, the GRC members communicate daily to discuss losses and VaR limit excesses. As a result of this process, the lines of business may selectively reduce risk. Where economically feasible, positions are sold or macroeconomic hedges are executed to reduce the exposure.
Our VaR model uses a historical simulation approach based on three years of historical data and an expected shortfall methodology equivalent to a 99 percent confidence level. Statistically, this means that losses will exceed VaR, on average, one out of 100 trading days, or two to three times each year. The number of actual backtesting excesses observed is dependent on current market performance, relative to historic market volatility. Currently, the three years of historical market data utilized for VaR includes the volatile fourth quarter of 2008. Subsequent market volatility has generally been lower, and as a result, the size of the largest trading losses experienced since then has been lower than would be expected based on the VaR measure. Actual losses did not exceed daily trading VaR in the twelve months ended
September 30, 2011
or in the twelve months ended
September 30, 2010
. The graph below shows daily trading-related revenue and VaR for the twelve months ended

The
decrease
in average VaR for the
three months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
June 30, 2011
was primarily due to strategic de-risking during the period. The most significant decreases were in credit and real estate where average VaR decreased $36 million and $23 million respectively.
Counterparty credit risk is an adjustment to the mark-to-market value of our derivative exposures reflecting the impact of the credit quality of counterparties on our derivative assets. Since counterparty credit exposure is not included in the VaR component of the regulatory capital allocation, we do not include it in our trading VaR, and it is therefore not included in the daily trading-related revenue illustrated in our histogram or used for backtesting.
|
Trading Portfolio Stress Testing
|
Because the very nature of a VaR model suggests results can exceed our estimates, and is dependent on a limited lookback window, we also stress test our portfolio. Stress testing estimates the value change in our trading portfolio that may result from abnormal market movements. Various scenarios, categorized as either historical or hypothetical, are regularly run and reported for the overall trading portfolio and individual businesses. Historical scenarios simulate the impact of price changes that occurred during a set of extended historical market events. Generally, a 10-business-day window or longer, representing the most severe point during a crisis, is selected for each historical scenario. Hypothetical scenarios provide simulations of anticipated shocks from pre-defined market stress events. These stress events include shocks to underlying market risk variables which may be well beyond the shocks found in the historical data used to calculate VaR. As with the historical scenarios, the hypothetical scenarios are designed to represent a short-term market disruption. Scenarios are reviewed and updated as necessary in light of changing positions and new economic or political information. In addition to the value afforded by the results themselves, this information provides senior management with a clear picture of the trend of risk being taken given the relatively static nature of the shocks applied. Stress testing for the trading portfolio is also integrated with enterprise-wide stress testing and incorporated into the limits framework. A process has been established to promote consistency between the scenarios used for the trading portfolio and those used for enterprise-wide stress testing. The scenarios used for enterprise-wide stress testing purposes differ from the typical trading portfolio scenarios in that they have a longer time horizon and the results are forecasted over multiple periods for use in consolidated capital and liquidity planning. For additional information on enterprise-wide stress testing, see page

Interest Rate Risk Management for Nontrading Activities
|
Interest rate risk represents the most significant market risk exposure to our nontrading balance sheet. Interest rate risk is measured as the potential volatility in our core net interest income caused by changes in market interest rates. Client-facing activities, primarily lending and deposit-taking, create interest rate sensitive positions on our balance sheet.
127
We prepare forward-looking forecasts of core net interest income. The baseline forecast takes into consideration expected future business growth, ALM positioning and the direction of interest rate movements as implied by the market-based forward curve. We then measure and evaluate the impact that alternative interest rate scenarios have on the baseline forecast in order to assess interest rate sensitivity under varied conditions. The core net interest income forecast is frequently updated for changing assumptions and differing outlooks based on economic trends, market conditions and business strategies. Thus, we continually monitor our balance sheet position in an effort to maintain an acceptable level of exposure to interest rate changes.
The interest rate scenarios that we analyze incorporate balance sheet assumptions such as loan and deposit growth and pricing, changes in funding mix, product repricing and maturity characteristics, but do not include the impact of hedge ineffectiveness. Our overall goal is to manage interest rate risk so that movements in interest rates do not adversely affect core net interest income and capital.
Periodically, we evaluate the scenarios presented to ensure that they provide a comprehensive view of the Corporation’s interest rate risk exposure and are meaningful in the context of the current rate environment. Given the low level of short-end rates, we have determined that gradual downward shifts of 50 bps applied to the short-end of the market-based forward curve provide a more realistic view of potential exposure resulting from changes in interest rates. This replaced the 100 bps downward shift scenarios applied to the short-end of the market-based forward curve previously presented. In addition, a long-end flattener of (50) bps was added for comparability purposes.
The spot and 12-month forward monthly rates used in our baseline forecasts at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
are presented in

The sensitivity analysis in
Table 63
assumes that we take no action in response to these rate shifts over the indicated periods. Our core net interest income was asset sensitive to a parallel move in interest rates at both
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. As part of our ALM activities, we use securities, residential mortgages, and interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives in managing interest rate sensitivity. The significant decline in long-end rates contributed to the increase in asset sensitivity between
December 31, 2010
and
September 30, 2011
.

|
Securities
|
The securities portfolio is an integral part of our ALM positioning and is primarily comprised of debt securities including MBS and to a lesser extent U.S. Treasury, corporate, municipal and other debt securities. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, we held AFS debt securities of
$324.3 billion
and
$337.6 billion
with a weighted-average duration of 4.2 years and 4.9 years. During the
three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, we purchased AFS debt securities of $18.2 billion and $38.5 billion, sold $26.2 billion and $15.6 billion, and had maturities and received paydowns of $12.5 billion and $16.4 billion. We realized
$737 million
and
$883 million
in net gains on sales of debt securities during the
three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
.
During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, we purchased approximately $26.2 billion of U.S. Agency MBS which are classified as securities held-to-maturity. The purchases of these securities were part of our long-term investment activities which include holding these securities to maturity. The classification of these securities as held to maturity also mitigates accumulated OCI volatility and possible negative impacts on our regulatory capital requirements under the Basel III capital standards. The contractual maturities of the held-to-maturity securities are greater than 10 years and they are subject to prepayment by the issuers.
During the
nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, we purchased AFS debt securities of
$78.0 billion
and
$138.2 billion
, sold
$66.2 billion
and
$78.2 billion
, and had maturities and received paydowns of
$41.2 billion
and
$52.8 billion
. We realized
$2.2 billion
and
$1.7 billion
in net gains on sales of debt securities during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, we sold approximately half of our investment in CCB, which was classified as AFS, and recognized a pre-tax gain of
$3.6 billion
. For additional information about the CCB sale, see
Note 5 – Securities
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
Accumulated OCI included after-tax net unrealized gains of $6.0 billion and $8.5 billion at
September 30, 2011
and
2010
, comprised primarily of after-tax net unrealized gains of $4.3 billion and $2.3 billion related to AFS debt securities and after-tax net unrealized gains of $1.7 billion and $6.2 billion related to AFS equity securities. The amount of pre-tax accumulated OCI related to AFS debt securities increased by $4.3 billion and $5.7 billion during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
to $6.8 billion primarily due to lower interest rates. This compared to a decrease of $1.0 billion during the
three months ended September 30, 2010
and an increase of $4.7 billion during the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
. In connection with the sale of CCB shares, we reclassified a
$3.6 billion
pre-tax gain from accumulated OCI into earnings.
We recognized
$85 million
and
$218 million
of other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) losses through earnings on AFS debt securities in the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$123 million
and
$850 million
for the same periods in
2010
. There were no recognized OTTI losses on AFS marketable equity securities during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to $3 million for the same period in
2010
.
The recognition of OTTI losses on debt and marketable equity securities is based on a variety of factors, including the length of time and extent to which the market value has been less than amortized cost, the financial condition of the issuer of the security including credit ratings and any specific events affecting the operations of the issuer, underlying assets that collateralize the debt security, other industry and macroeconomic conditions, and our intent and ability to hold the security to recovery.

Residential Mortgage Portfolio
|
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, our residential mortgage portfolio was
$267.8 billion
(which includes
$1.3 billion
in residential mortgage loans accounted for under the fair value option) and
$258.0 billion
. For more information on consumer fair value option loans, see
Consumer Credit Risk – Consumer Loans Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option
on page
100
. Outstanding residential mortgage loans
increased
$9.8 billion
at
September 30, 2011
compared to
December 31, 2010
as new origination volume was partially offset by paydowns, charge-offs and transfers to foreclosed properties. In addition, we repurchased $7.7 billion of delinquent FHA loans pursuant to our servicing agreements with GNMA which also increased the residential mortgage portfolio during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
.
During the
three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, we retained $11.5 billion and $17.1 billion in first-lien mortgages originated by
CRES
and
GWIM
. We received paydowns of $9.5 billion and $9.2 billion in the
three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. There were no loans securitized during the
three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. There were no purchases of residential mortgages related to ALM activities during the
three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. We sold $17 million and $129 million of residential mortgages during the
three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, all of which consisted of originated residential mortgages. Net gains on these transactions were minimal.
129
During the
nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, we retained $35.3 billion and $36.8 billion in first-lien mortgages originated by
CRES
and
GWIM
. We received paydowns of $29.9 billion and $25.8 billion in the
nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. There were no loans securitized during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to $2.1 billion of loans securitized into MBS which we retained during the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
. We recognized gains of $61 million on the securitizations completed during the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
. We purchased $72 million of residential mortgages related to ALM activities during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to none in the same period in
2010
. We sold $91 million and $412 million of residential mortgages during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, of which $11 million of the
2010
sales were previously purchased from third parties. Net gains on these transactions were minimal.
|
Interest Rate and Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts
|
Interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts are utilized in our ALM activities and serve as an efficient tool to manage our interest rate and foreign exchange risk. We use derivatives to hedge the variability in cash flows or changes in fair value on our balance sheet due to interest rate and foreign exchange components. For additional information on our hedging activities, see
Note 4 – Derivatives
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
Our interest rate contracts are generally non-leveraged generic interest rate and foreign exchange basis swaps, options, futures and forwards. In addition, we use foreign exchange contracts, including cross-currency interest rate swaps, foreign currency forward contracts and options to mitigate the foreign exchange risk associated with foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities.
Changes to the composition of our derivatives portfolio during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
reflect actions taken for interest rate and foreign exchange rate risk management. The decisions to reposition our derivatives portfolio are based upon the current assessment of economic and financial conditions including the interest rate and foreign currency environments, balance sheet composition and trends, and the relative mix of our cash and derivative positions.
130
Table 64
includes derivatives utilized in our ALM activities including those designated as accounting and economic hedging instruments and shows the notional amount, fair value, weighted-average receive-fixed and pay-fixed rates, expected maturity and estimated duration of our open ALM derivatives at
September 30, 2011
and

We use interest rate derivative instruments to hedge the variability in the cash flows of our assets and liabilities and other forecasted transactions (collectively referred to as cash flow hedges). The net losses on both open and terminated derivative instruments recorded in accumulated OCI, net-of-tax, were
$4.1 billion
and
$3.2 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. These net losses are expected to be reclassified into earnings in the same period as the hedged cash flows affect earnings and will decrease income or increase expense on the respective hedged cash flows. Assuming no change in open cash flow derivative hedge positions and no changes in prices or interest rates beyond what is implied in forward yield curves at
September 30, 2011
, the pre-tax net losses are expected to be reclassified into earnings as follows: $1.7 billion, or 28 percent, within the next year, 81 percent within five years, and 93 percent within 10 years, with the remaining seven percent thereafter. For more information on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, see
Note 4 – Derivatives
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
.
We hedge our net investment in non-U.S. operations determined to have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar using forward foreign exchange contracts that typically settle in less than 180 days, cross-currency basis swaps, foreign exchange options and foreign currency-denominated debt. We recorded after-tax losses on derivatives and foreign currency-denominated debt in accumulated OCI associated with net investment hedges which were offset by gains on our net investments in consolidated non-U.S. entities at
September 30, 2011
.

Mortgage Banking Risk Management
|
We originate, fund and service mortgage loans, which subject us to credit, liquidity and interest rate risks, among others. We determine whether loans will be HFI or held-for-sale at the time of commitment and manage credit and liquidity risks by selling or securitizing a portion of the loans we originate.
Interest rate risk and market risk can be substantial in the mortgage business. Fluctuations in interest rates drive consumer demand for new mortgages and the level of refinancing activity, which in turn, affects total origination and service fee income. Typically, a decline in mortgage interest rates will lead to an increase in mortgage originations and fees and a decrease in the value of the MSRs driven by higher prepayment expectations. Hedging the various sources of interest rate risk in mortgage banking is a complex process that requires complex modeling and ongoing monitoring. IRLCs and the related residential first mortgage LHFS are subject to interest rate risk between the date of the IRLC and the date the loans are sold to the secondary market. To hedge interest rate risk, we utilize forward loan sale commitments and other derivative instruments including purchased options. These instruments are used as economic hedges of IRLCs and residential first mortgage LHFS. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the notional amount of derivatives economically hedging the IRLCs and residential first mortgage LHFS was $50.7 billion and $129.0 billion.
MSRs are nonfinancial assets created when the underlying mortgage loan is sold to investors and we retain the right to service the loan. We use certain derivatives such as interest rate options, interest rate swaps, forward rate agreements, Eurodollar and U.S. Treasury futures, as well as mortgage-backed and U.S. Treasury securities as economic hedges of MSRs. The notional amounts of the derivative contracts and other securities designated as economic hedges of MSRs were $2.5 trillion and $47.5 billion at
September 30, 2011
and $1.6 trillion and $60.3 billion at
December 31, 2010
. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we recorded gains in mortgage banking income of $4.3 billion and $5.5 billion related to the change in fair value of these economic hedges compared to gains of $2.2 billion and $7.1 billion for the same periods in
2010
. For additional information on MSRs, see
Note 19 – Mortgage Servicing Rights
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
and for more information on mortgage banking income, see

Compliance Risk Management
|
Compliance risk arises from the failure to adhere to laws, rules, regulations, and internal policies and procedures. Compliance risk can expose the Corporation to reputational risks as well as fines, civil money penalties or payment of damages and can lead to diminished business opportunities and diminished ability to expand key operations. Compliance is at the core of the Corporation's culture and is a key component of risk management discipline.
The Global Compliance organization is responsible for driving a culture of compliance, establishing compliance program standards and policies; executing, monitoring and testing business controls; performing risk assessments on the businesses' adherence to laws, rules and standards as well as effectiveness of business controls; delivering compliance risk reporting; and ensuring the identification, escalation, and timely mitigation of emerging and existing compliance risks. Global Compliance is also responsible for facilitating processes to effectively manage and influence the dynamic regulatory environment and build constructive relationships with regulators.
The Board provides oversight of compliance risks through its Audit Committee.

|
Operational Risk Management
|
The Corporation defines operational risk as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events. Operational risk may occur anywhere in the Corporation, not solely in operations functions, and its effects may extend beyond financial losses. Operational risk includes legal risk. Successful operational risk management is particularly important to diversified financial services companies because of the nature, volume and complexity of the financial services business. Global banking guidelines and country-specific requirements for managing operational risk were established in Basel II which require that the Corporation has internal operational risk management processes to assess and measure operational risk exposure and to set aside appropriate capital to address those exposures.
We approach operational risk management from two perspectives to best manage operational risk within the structure of the Corporation: (1) at the enterprise level to provide independent, integrated management of operational risk across the organization, and (2) at the line of business and enterprise control function levels to address operational risk in revenue producing and non-revenue producing units. A sound internal governance structure enhances the effectiveness of the Corporation’s Operational Risk Management Program and is accomplished at the enterprise level through formal oversight by the Board, the Chief Risk Officer and a variety of management committees and risk oversight groups aligned to the Corporation’s overall risk governance framework and practices. Of these, the Operational Risk Committee (ORC) oversees and approves the Corporation’s policies and processes for sound operational and compliance risk management. The ORC also serves as an escalation point for critical operational risk and compliance matters within the Corporation. The ORC reports operational risk activities to the Enterprise Risk Committee of the Board.
Within the Global Risk Management organization, the Corporate Operational Risk team develops and guides the strategies, policies, practices, controls and monitoring tools for assessing and managing operational risks across the organization and reports results to the lines of business, enterprise control functions, senior management, governance committees and the Board.
Each line of business and enterprise control function is responsible for all risks within their respective line of business, including operational risks. In addition to enterprise risk management tools such as loss reporting, scenario analysis and risk and control self-assessments, independent operational risk executives, working in conjunction with senior line of business executives, have developed key tools to proactively identify, measure, mitigate and monitor risk specific to each line of business and enterprise control function.
Independent review and challenge to the Corporation’s overall operational risk management framework is performed by the Corporate Operational Risk Validation Team, Compliance and Internal Audit.
For more information on our operational risk management activities, see pages 106 through 107
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K

Complex Accounting Estimates
|
Our significant accounting principles, as described in
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
, are essential in understanding the MD&A. Many of our significant accounting principles require complex judgments to estimate the values of assets and liabilities. We have procedures and processes in place to facilitate making these judgments. The more judgmental estimates are summarized below.
We have identified and described the development of the variables most important in the estimation processes that involve mathematical models to derive the estimates. In many cases, there are numerous alternative judgments that could be used in the process of determining the inputs to the models. Where alternatives exist, we have used the factors that we believe represent the most reasonable value in developing the inputs. Actual performance that differs from our estimates of the key variables could impact our operating results. Separate from the possible future impact to our operating results from input and model variables, the value of our lending portfolio and market-sensitive assets and liabilities may change subsequent to the balance sheet date, often significantly, due to the nature and magnitude of future credit and market conditions. Such credit and market conditions may change quickly and in unforeseen ways and the resulting volatility could have a significant, negative effect on future operating results. These fluctuations would not be indicative of deficiencies in our models or inputs.
For additional information, see Complex Accounting Estimates on pages
107 through 113
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K

Level 3 Assets and Liabilities
|
Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and are significant to the overall fair value measurement are classified as Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy established in applicable accounting guidance. The Level 3 financial assets and liabilities include consumer MSRs, highly structured, complex or long-dated derivative contracts and private equity investments, as well as certain loans, MBS, ABS, structured liabilities and CDOs. The fair value of these Level 3 financial assets and liabilities is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Level 3 total assets and liabilities are shown before the impact of counterparty netting related to our derivative positions.
|
During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, we recognized net losses of
$916 million
and net gains of
$1.1 billion
on Level 3 assets and liabilities. The net losses during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
were primarily related to valuation changes on MSRs during the quarter, partially offset by gains on derivatives. The net gains during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
were primarily related to strong trading account results in the first quarter of 2011 combined with gains on IRLCs, partially offset by losses on MSRs. There were no net unrealized gains or losses in accumulated OCI on Level 3 assets and liabilities at
September 30, 2011
.
Level 3 financial instruments, such as our consumer MSRs, may be economically hedged with derivatives classified as Level 1 or 2; therefore, gains or losses associated with Level 3 financial instruments may be offset by gains or losses associated with financial instruments classified in other levels of the fair value hierarchy. The Level 3 gains and losses recorded in earnings did not have a significant impact on our liquidity or capital resources.
We conduct a review of our fair value hierarchy classifications on a quarterly basis. Transfers into or out of Level 3 are made if the significant inputs used in the financial models measuring the fair values of the assets and liabilities became unobservable or observable, respectively, in the current marketplace. These transfers are considered to be effective as of the beginning of the quarter in which they occur.
During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, the transfers into Level 3 included
$665 million
of trading account assets and
$679 million
of long-term debt. Transfers into Level 3 for trading account assets were driven by decreased price observability for certain corporate loans and bonds. Transfers into Level 3 for long-term debt were the result of an increase in unobservable inputs used in the pricing of certain structured liabilities.

During the
three months ended September 30, 2011

$769 million
of AFS debt securities,
$4.3 billion
of loans and leases,
$761 million
of accrued expenses and other liabilities and
$702 million
of long-term debt. Transfers out of Level 3 for AFS debt securities were driven by increased use of observable inputs in pricing certain municipal securities. Transfers out of Level 3 for loans and leases and accrued expenses and other liabilities were driven by increased observable inputs, primarily liquid comparables, for certain corporate loans and unfunded loan commitments (included in other liabilities) accounted for under the fair value option. Transfers out of Level 3 for long-term debt were due to increased price observability for inputs used in the pricing of certain structured liabilities.
During the

, the transfers into Level 3 included
$1.6 billion
of trading account assets and
$1.7 billion
of long-term debt accounted for under the fair value option. Transfers into Level 3 for trading account assets were primarily certain collateralized loan obligations, corporate loans and bonds that were transferred into Level 3 due to a lack of price transparency. Transfers into Level 3 for long-term debt were the result of an increase in unobservable inputs used in the pricing of certain structured liabilities.
During the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the transfers out of Level 3 included
$1.2 billion
of trading account assets,
$4.3 billion
of loans and leases,
$1.6 billion
of other assets and
$1.2 billion
of long-term debt. Transfers out of Level 3 for trading account assets were primarily driven by increased price observability on certain RMBS, CMBS and consumer ABS portfolios. Transfers out of Level 3 for loans and leases were driven by increased observable inputs, primarily liquid comparables, for certain corporate loans accounted for under the fair value option. Transfers out of Level 3 for other assets were the result of an initial public offering of an equity investment. Transfers out of Level 3 for long-term debt were due to increased price observability for inputs used in the pricing of certain structured liabilities.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets
|
Background
The nature of and accounting for goodwill and intangible assets are discussed in
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
and
Note 10 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
as well as Complex Accounting Estimates on pages
107 through 113
of the MD&A of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. Goodwill is reviewed for potential impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, which for the Corporation is performed as of
June 30
, and in interim periods if events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. A reporting unit is an operating segment or one level below. As reporting units are determined after an acquisition or evolve with changes in business strategy, goodwill is assigned to reporting units and it no longer retains its association with a particular acquisition. All of the revenue streams and related activities of a reporting unit, whether acquired or organic, are available to support the value of the goodwill.
We use the reporting units’ allocated equity as a proxy for the carrying amount of equity for each reporting unit in our goodwill impairment tests as we do not maintain a record of equity as defined under GAAP at the reporting unit level. Allocated equity includes economic capital, goodwill and a percentage of intangible assets allocated to the reporting units. The allocation of economic capital to the reporting units utilized for goodwill impairment testing has the same basis as the allocation of economic capital to our operating segments. Economic capital allocation plans are incorporated into the Corporation’s operating plan which is approved by the Board on an annual basis. Allocated equity is updated on a quarterly basis.
2011
Annual Goodwill Impairment Testing
The Corporation's common stock price remained volatile during
2010
and
2011
primarily due to the continued uncertainty in the economy, and in the financial services industry, as well as adverse developments related to our mortgage business and increased regulation. During these periods, our market capitalization remained below our recorded book value. We estimate that the fair value of all reporting units in aggregate as of the
June 30, 2011
annual goodwill impairment test was $210.2 billion and the common stock market capitalization of the Corporation as of that date was $111.1 billion ($62.0 billion at
September 30, 2011
). As none of our reporting units are publicly traded, individual reporting unit fair value determinations do not directly correlate to the Corporation's stock price. Although we believe it is reasonable to conclude that market capitalization could be an indicator of fair value over time, we do not believe that recent fluctuations in our market capitalization reflect the fair value of our individual reporting units, except for the
CRES
reporting unit where we recorded goodwill impairment charges during the
three months ended June 30, 2011
to reduce the carrying value of the goodwill to zero.
Estimating the fair value of reporting units is a subjective process that involves the use of estimates and judgments, particularly related to cash flows, the appropriate discount rates and an applicable control premium. We determined the fair values of the reporting units using a combination of valuation techniques consistent with the market approach and the income approach and included the use of independent valuation specialists.
135
The market approach we used estimates the fair value of the individual reporting units by incorporating any combination of the tangible capital, book capital and earnings multiples from comparable publicly-traded companies in industries similar to that of the reporting unit. The relative weight assigned to these multiples varies among the reporting units based on qualitative and quantitative characteristics, primarily the size and relative profitability of the reporting unit as compared to the comparable publicly-traded companies. Since the fair values determined under the market approach are representative of a noncontrolling interest, a control premium was added to arrive at the reporting units' estimated fair values on a controlling basis.
For purposes of the income approach, we calculated discounted cash flows by taking the net present value of estimated cash flows using estimated future cash flows and an appropriate terminal value. Our discounted cash flow analysis employs a capital asset pricing model in estimating the discount rate (i.e., cost of equity financing) for each reporting unit. The inputs to this model include the risk-free rate of return, beta, which is a measure of the level of non-diversifiable risk associated with comparable companies for each specific reporting unit, market equity risk premium and in certain cases an unsystematic (company-specific) risk factor. The unsystematic risk factor is the input that specifically addresses uncertainty related to our projections of earnings and growth, including the uncertainty related to loss expectations. We utilized discount rates that we believe adequately reflect the risk and uncertainty in the financial markets generally and specifically in our internally developed forecasts. We estimated expected rates of equity returns based on historical market returns and risk/return rates for similar industries of the reporting unit. We use our internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows and actual results may differ from forecasted results.
During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, we completed our annual goodwill impairment test as of
June 30, 2011
for all of our reporting units which had goodwill. In performing the first step of the annual goodwill impairment analysis, we compared the fair value of each reporting unit to its current carrying value, including goodwill. To determine fair value, we utilized a combination of the market approach and income approach. Under the market approach, we compared earnings and equity multiples of the individual reporting units to multiples of public companies comparable to the individual reporting units. The control premiums used in the June 30, 2011 annual goodwill impairment test ranged from 25 percent to 35 percent. Under the income approach, we updated our assumptions to reflect the current market environment. The discount rates used in the
June 30, 2011
annual goodwill impairment test ranged from 11 percent to 16 percent depending on the relative risk of a reporting unit. Growth rates developed by management for individual revenue and expense items in each reporting unit ranged from 0.7 percent to 6.7 percent. For certain revenue and expense items that have been significantly affected by the current economic environment and financial reform, management developed separate long-term forecasts.
Based on the results of step one of the annual goodwill impairment test, we determined that step two was not required for any of the reporting units as their fair value exceeded their carrying value indicating there was no impairment.
The table below shows goodwill assigned to the individual reporting units and the fair value as a percentage of the carrying value as of our
June 30, 2011
annual goodwill impairment test.

In estimating the fair value of the reporting units in step one of the annual goodwill impairment analysis, the fair values can be sensitive to changes in the projected cash flows and assumptions. In some instances, minor changes in the assumptions could impact whether the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying value. Furthermore, a prolonged decrease or increase in a particular assumption would eventually lead to the fair value of a reporting unit being less than its carrying value. Also, to the extent step two of the annual goodwill impairment analysis is required, changes in the estimated fair values of the individual assets and liabilities may impact estimates of fair value for assets or liabilities and result in a different amount of implied goodwill, and ultimately the amount of goodwill impairment, if any.
Third Quarter 2011
Goodwill Impairment Test
On August 15, 2011, we announced that we have agreed to sell the Canadian consumer card business and that we will exit the European consumer card businesses. In light of these actions, the results of the international consumer card businesses were moved to
All Other
. Included in the movement of assets was goodwill of approximately $1.9 billion that was allocated from the
Card Services
reporting unit to
All Other
. This was partially offset by a reduction in goodwill related to the sale of the Canadian consumer card business which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2011. The allocation of goodwill was based on the relative fair values of the respective businesses within
Card Services
and the international consumer card businesses.
As discussed in
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
, we adopted new accounting guidance issued in September 2011 on testing goodwill for impairment for the goodwill impairment test for
Card Services
and the European consumer card businesses completed during the three months ended September 30, 2011. We assessed the qualitative factors surrounding the goodwill remaining in
Card Services
and the goodwill allocated to
All Other
for the European consumer card businesses and concluded that it was not more-likely-than-not that the fair values of the reporting units are less than the carrying values. As a result, step one of the goodwill impairment test was not considered necessary.
In view of the uncertain economic conditions, we will evaluate selected reporting units in the fourth quarter for possible goodwill impairment.

Representations and Warranties
|
The methodology used to estimate the liability for obligations under representations and warranties related to transfers of residential mortgage loans is a function of the representations and warranties given and considers a variety of factors. Depending upon the counterparty, these factors include actual defaults, estimated future defaults, historical loss experience, estimated home prices, other economic conditions, estimated probability that we will receive a repurchase request, including consideration of whether presentation thresholds will be met, number of payments made by the borrower prior to default, estimated probability that we will be required to repurchase a loan and the experience with and the behavior of the counterparty. It also considers bulk settlements, as appropriate. The estimate of the liability for obligations under representations and warranties is based upon currently available information, significant judgment, and a number of factors, including those set forth above, that are subject to change. Changes to any one of these factors could significantly impact the estimate of our liability.
The provision for representations and warranties may vary significantly each period as the methodology used to estimate the expense continues to be refined based on the level and type of repurchase requests presented, defects identified, the latest experience gained on repurchase requests and other relevant facts and circumstances. The estimated range of possible loss related to non-GSE representations and warranties exposure has been disclosed. For the GSE claims where we have established a representations and warranties liability as discussed in
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
, an assumed simultaneous increase or decrease of
10
percent in estimated future defaults, loss severity and the net repurchase rate would result in an increase of approximately
$850 million
or decrease of approximately
$800 million
in the representations and warranties liability as of
September 30, 2011
. Viewed from the perspective of home prices, for each one percent change in home prices, the liability for representations and warranties on unsettled GSE originations is estimated to be impacted by
$125 million
based on projected collateral losses and defect rates. These sensitivities are hypothetical and are intended to provide an indication of the impact of a significant change in these key assumptions on the representations and warranties liability. In reality, changes in one assumption may result in changes in other assumptions, which may or may not counteract the sensitivity.

Glossary
|
Alt-A Mortgage
– Alternative-A mortgage, a type of U.S. mortgage that, for various reasons, is considered riskier than A-paper, or “prime,” and less risky than “subprime,” the riskiest category. Alt-A interest rates, which are determined by credit risk, therefore tend to be between those of prime and subprime home loans. Typically, Alt-A mortgages are characterized by borrowers with less than full documentation, lower credit scores and higher LTVs.
Assets in Custody
– Consist largely of custodial and non-discretionary trust assets excluding brokerage assets administered for clients. Trust assets encompass a broad range of asset types including real estate, private company ownership interest, personal property and investments.
Assets Under Management (AUM)
– The total market value of assets under the investment advisory and discretion of
GWIM
which generate asset management fees based on a percentage of the assets’ market values. AUM reflects assets that are generally managed for institutional, high net-worth and retail clients and are distributed through various investment products including mutual funds, other commingled vehicles and separate accounts.
Carrying Value (with respect to loans)
– The amount at which a loan is recorded on the balance sheet. For loans recorded at amortized cost, carrying value is the unpaid principal balance net of unamortized deferred loan origination fees and costs, and unamortized purchase premium or discount. For loans that are or have been on nonaccrual status, the carrying value is also reduced by any net charge-offs that have been recorded and the amount of interest payments applied as a reduction of principal under the cost recovery method. For PCI loans, the carrying value equals fair value upon acquisition adjusted for subsequent cash collections and yield accreted to date, and charge-offs. For credit card loans, the carrying value also includes interest that has been billed to the customer. For loans classified as held-for-sale, carrying value is the lower of carrying value as described in the sentences above, or fair value. For loans for which we have elected the fair value option, the carrying value is fair value.
Client Brokerage Assets
– Include client assets which are held in brokerage accounts. This includes non-discretionary brokerage and fee-based assets which generate brokerage income and asset management fee revenue.
Committed Credit Exposure
– Includes any funded portion of a facility plus the unfunded portion of a facility on which the lender is legally bound to advance funds during a specified period under prescribed conditions.
Core Net Interest Income
– Net interest income on a FTE basis excluding the impact of market-based activities.
Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009 (CARD Act)
– Legislation signed into law on May 22, 2009 to provide changes to credit card industry practices including significantly restricting credit card issuers’ ability to change interest rates and assess fees to reflect individual consumer risk, change the way payments are applied and requiring changes to consumer credit card disclosures. The majority of the provisions became effective on February 22, 2010, while certain provisions became effective in the third quarter of 2010.
Credit Default Swap
– A derivative contract that provides protection against the deterioration of credit quality and allows one party to receive payment in the event of default by a third party under a borrowing arrangement.
Interest Rate Lock Commitment (IRLC)
– Commitment with a loan applicant in which the loan terms, including interest rate and price, are guaranteed for a designated period of time subject to credit approval.
Letter of Credit
– A document issued on behalf of a customer to a third party promising to pay the third party upon presentation of specified documents. A letter of credit effectively substitutes the issuer’s credit for that of the customer.
Loan-to-value (LTV)
– A commonly used credit quality metric that is reported in terms of ending and average LTV. Ending LTV is calculated as the outstanding carrying value of the loan at the end of the period divided by the estimated value of the property securing the loan. Estimated property values are primarily determined by utilizing the Case-Schiller Home Index, a widely used index based on data from repeat sales of single family homes. Case-Schiller indices are updated quarterly and are reported on a three-month or one-quarter lag. An additional metric related to LTV is
combined loan-to-value (CLTV)
which is similar to the LTV metric, yet combines the outstanding balance on the residential mortgage loan and the outstanding carrying value on the home equity loan or available line of credit, both of which are secured by the same property, divided by the estimated value of the property. A LTV of 100 percent reflects a loan that is currently secured by a property valued at an amount exactly equal to the carrying value or available line of the loan. Under certain circumstances, estimated values can also be determined by utilizing an automated valuation method (AVM) or Mortgage Risk Assessment Corporation (MRAC) index. An AVM is a tool that estimates the value of a property by reference to large volumes of market data including sales of comparable properties and price trends specific to the MSA in which the property being valued is located. The MRAC index is similar to the Case-Schiller Home Index in that it is an index that is based on data from repeat sales of single family homes and is reported on a lag.
139
Mortgage Servicing Right (MSR)
– The right to service a mortgage loan when the underlying loan is sold or securitized. Servicing includes collections for principal, interest and escrow payments from borrowers and accounting for and remitting principal and interest payments to investors.
Net Interest Yield
– Net interest income divided by average total interest-earning assets.
Nonperforming Loans and Leases
– Includes loans and leases that have been placed on nonaccrual status, including nonaccruing loans whose contractual terms have been restructured in a manner that grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties (troubled debt restructurings or TDRs). Loans accounted for under the fair value option, PCI loans and LHFS are not reported as nonperforming loans and leases. Consumer credit card loans, business card loans, consumer loans not secured by real estate, and consumer loans secured by real estate, which include loans insured by the FHA and individually insured long-term credit protection agreements with FNMA and FHLMC (fully-insured loan portfolio), are not placed on nonaccrual status and are, therefore, not reported as nonperforming loans and leases.
Purchased Credit-impaired (PCI) Loan
– A loan purchased as an individual loan, in a portfolio of loans or in a business combination with evidence of deterioration in credit quality since origination for which it is probable, upon acquisition, that the investor will be unable to collect all contractually required payments. These loans are recorded at fair value upon acquisition.
Subprime Loans
– Although a standard industry definition for subprime loans (including subprime mortgage loans) does not exist, the Corporation defines subprime loans as specific product offerings for higher risk borrowers, including individuals with one or a combination of high credit risk factors, such as low FICO scores, high debt to income ratios and inferior payment history.
Super Senior CDO Exposure
– Represents the most senior class of commercial paper or notes that are issued by CDO vehicles. These financial instruments benefit from the subordination of all other securities, including AAA-rated securities, issued by CDO vehicles.
Tier 1 Common Capital
– Tier 1 capital including any CES, less preferred stock, qualifying trust preferred securities, hybrid securities and qualifying noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries.
Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs)
– Loans whose contractual terms have been restructured in a manner that grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. Concessions could include a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions intended to maximize collection. TDRs are generally reported as nonperforming loans and leases while on nonaccrual status. TDRs that are on accrual status are reported as performing TDRs through the end of the calendar year in which the restructuring occurred or the year in which they are returned to accrual status. In addition, if accruing TDRs bear less than a market rate of interest at the time of modification, they are reported as performing TDRs throughout their remaining lives.
Value-at-Risk (VaR)
– A VaR model estimates a range of hypothetical scenarios to calculate a potential loss which is not expected to be exceeded with a specified confidence level. VaR represents the worst loss the portfolio is expected to experience based on historical trends with a given level of confidence and depends on the volatility of the positions in the portfolio and on how strongly their risks are correlated. A VaR model is an effective tool in estimating ranges of potential gains and losses on our trading portfolios and is a key statistic used to measure and manage market risk.

Bank of America Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
|
|
NOTE 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
|
Bank of America Corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, the Corporation), a financial holding company, provides a diverse range of financial services and products throughout the U.S. and in certain international markets. The term “the Corporation” as used herein may refer to the Corporation individually, the Corporation and its subsidiaries, or certain of the Corporation’s subsidiaries or affiliates.
The Corporation conducts its activities through banking and nonbanking subsidiaries. The Corporation operates its banking activities primarily under two charters: Bank of America, National Association (Bank of America, N.A. or BANA) and FIA Card Services, National Association (FIA Card Services, N.A.).
|
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
|
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its majority-owned subsidiaries, and those variable interest entities (VIEs) where the Corporation is the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Results of operations of acquired companies are included from the dates of acquisition and for VIEs, from the dates that the Corporation became the primary beneficiary. Assets held in an agency or fiduciary capacity are not included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Corporation accounts for investments in companies for which it owns a voting interest and for which it has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financing decisions using the equity method of accounting or at fair value under the fair value option. These investments are included in other assets. Equity method investments are subject to impairment testing and the Corporation’s proportionate share of income or loss is included in equity investment income.
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Realized results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements
of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. The nature of the Corporation’s business is such that the results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the interim period results have been made. The Corporation evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
Effective January 1, 2011, the Corporation changed the name of the segment formerly known as
Home Loans & Insurance
to
Consumer Real Estate Services (CRES).
Effective July 1, 2011, as a result of the Corporation's decision to exit the international consumer card businesses, the Corporation changed the name of the segment formerly known as
Global Card Services
to
Card Services
.
|
New Accounting Pronouncements
|
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance on troubled debt restructurings (TDRs), including criteria to determine whether a loan modification represents a concession and whether the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. This new accounting guidance is effective for the Corporation’s interim period ended September 30, 2011 with retrospective application back to January 1, 2011. As a result of the retrospective application, the Corporation classified
$1.1 billion
of commercial loan modifications and
$52 million
of consumer loan modifications as TDRs that in previous periods had not been classified as TDRs. These loans were newly identified as TDRs typically because the Corporation was not able to demonstrate that the modified rate of interest, although significantly higher than the rate prior to modification, was a market rate of interest. These newly identified TDRs did not have a significant impact on the allowance for credit losses or provision expense. At September 30, 2011, these amounts included
$519 million
of performing commercial loans and
$8 million
of performing consumer loans that were not previously considered to be impaired loans and which have an aggregate allowance of
$41 million
.
148
In April 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that addresses effective control in repurchase agreements and eliminates the requirement for entities to consider whether the transferor (i.e., seller) has the ability to repurchase the financial assets in a repurchase agreement. This new accounting guidance will be effective, on a prospective basis, for new transactions or modifications to existing transactions on January 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In May 2011, the FASB issued amendments to the fair value accounting guidance. The amendments clarify the application of the highest and best use, and valuation premise concepts, preclude the application of blockage factors in the valuation of all financial instruments and include criteria for applying the fair value measurement principles to portfolios of financial instruments. The amendments additionally prescribe enhanced financial statement disclosures for Level 3 fair value measurements. The new amendments will be effective on January 1, 2012. The Corporation is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In June 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income in financial statements. The new guidance requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either a continuous statement of comprehensive income or two separate but consecutive statements. This new accounting guidance will be effective for the Corporation for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The adoption of this guidance, which involves disclosures only, will not impact the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In September 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that simplifies goodwill impairment testing. The new guidance permits entities to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value before applying the two-step impairment test. If it is not more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, an entity would not be required to perform the two-step impairment test. The guidance includes factors for entities to consider when making the qualitative assessment, including macroeconomic and company-specific factors as well as factors relating to a specific reporting unit. The Corporation early adopted the new accounting guidance for the goodwill impairment test for
Card Services
and the European consumer card businesses completed during the three months ended September 30, 2011.
|
Significant Accounting Policies
|
Securities Financing Agreements
Securities borrowed or purchased under agreements to resell and securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase (securities financing agreements) are treated as collateralized financing transactions. These agreements are recorded at the amounts at which the securities were acquired or sold plus accrued interest, except for certain securities financing agreements that the Corporation accounts for under the fair value option. Changes in the fair value of securities financing agreements that are accounted for under the fair value option are recorded in other income.
The Corporation’s policy is to obtain possession of collateral with a market value equal to or in excess of the principal amount loaned under resale agreements. To ensure that the market value of the underlying collateral remains sufficient, collateral is generally valued daily and the Corporation may require counterparties to deposit additional collateral or may return collateral pledged when appropriate. Securities financing agreements give rise to negligible credit risk as a result of these collateral provisions, and accordingly, no allowance for loan losses is considered necessary.
Substantially all repurchase and resale activities are transacted under legally enforceable master repurchase agreements that give the Corporation, in the event of default by the counterparty, the right to liquidate securities held and to offset receivables and payables with the same counterparty. The Corporation offsets repurchase and resale transactions with the same counterparty on the Consolidated Balance Sheet where it has such a legally enforceable master agreement and the transactions have the same maturity date.
In transactions where the Corporation acts as the lender in a securities lending agreement and receives securities that can be pledged or sold as collateral, it recognizes an asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value, representing the securities received, and a liability for the same amount, representing the obligation to return those securities.
At the end of certain quarterly periods from January 1, 2006 through March 31, 2010, the Corporation had recorded as sales certain transfers of agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) which, based on an ongoing internal review and interpretation, should have been recorded as secured financings. The Corporation has recently completed a detailed review to determine whether there are additional sales of agency MBS that should have been recorded as secured financings and has identified additional transactions. These transactions did not have a material impact on the Corporation's Consolidated Financial Statements for any of the affected periods. For additional information, see
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
149
Loans and Leases
Under applicable accounting guidance, for reporting purposes, the loan and lease portfolio is categorized by portfolio segment and, within each portfolio segment, by class of financing receivables. A portfolio segment is defined as the level at which an entity develops and documents a systematic methodology to determine the allowance for credit losses, and a class of financing receivables is defined as the level of disaggregation of portfolio segments based on the initial measurement attribute, risk characteristics and methods for assessing risk. The Corporation’s three portfolio segments are home loans, credit card and other consumer, and commercial. The classes within the home loans portfolio segment are core portfolio residential mortgage, Legacy Asset Servicing residential mortgage, Countrywide Financial Corporation (Countrywide) residential mortgage purchased credit-impaired (PCI), core portfolio home equity, Legacy Asset Servicing home equity, Countrywide home equity PCI, Legacy Asset Servicing discontinued real estate and Countrywide discontinued real estate PCI
.
The classes within the credit card and other consumer portfolio segment are U.S. credit card, non-U.S. credit card, direct/indirect consumer and other consumer. The classes within the commercial portfolio segment are U.S. commercial, commercial real estate, commercial lease financing, non-U.S. commercial and U.S. small business commercial.
Revenue Recognition
The following summarizes the Corporation’s revenue recognition policies as they relate to certain noninterest income line items in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
Card income is derived from fees such as interchange, cash advance, annual, late, over-limit and other miscellaneous fees, which are recorded as revenue when earned, primarily on an accrual basis. Uncollected fees are included in the customer card receivables balances with an amount recorded in the allowance for loan and lease losses for estimated uncollectible card receivables. Uncollected fees are written off when a card receivable reaches 180 days past due.
Service charges include fees for insufficient funds, overdrafts and other banking services and are recorded as revenue when earned. Uncollected fees are included in outstanding loan balances with an amount recorded for estimated uncollectible service fees receivable. Uncollected fees are written off when a fee receivable reaches 60 days past due.
Investment and brokerage services revenue consists primarily of asset management fees and brokerage income that is recognized over the period the services are provided or when commissions are earned. Asset management fees consist primarily of fees for investment management and trust services and are generally based on the dollar amount of the assets being managed. Brokerage income is generally derived from commissions and fees earned on the sale of various financial products.
Investment banking income consists primarily of advisory and underwriting fees that are recognized in income as the services are provided and no contingencies exist. Revenues are generally recognized net of any direct expenses. Non-reimbursed expenses are recorded as noninterest expense.

NOTE 2 – Merger and Restructuring Activity
|
Merger and restructuring charges are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income and include incremental costs to integrate the operations of the Corporation and its most recent acquisitions. These charges represent costs associated with these one-time activities and do not represent ongoing costs of the fully integrated combined organization. The table below presents the components of merger and restructuring charges.

ALM and Risk Management Derivatives
|
The Corporation’s asset and liability management (ALM) and risk management activities include the use of derivatives to mitigate risk to the Corporation including both derivatives that are designated as qualifying accounting hedges and economic hedges. Interest rate, commodity, credit and foreign exchange contracts are utilized in the Corporation’s ALM and risk management activities.
The Corporation maintains an overall interest rate risk management strategy that incorporates the use of interest rate contracts, which are generally non-leveraged generic interest rate and basis swaps, options, futures and forwards, to minimize significant fluctuations in earnings that are caused by interest rate volatility. The Corporation’s goal is to manage interest rate sensitivity and volatility so that movements in interest rates do not significantly adversely affect earnings or capital. As a result of interest rate fluctuations, hedged fixed-rate assets and liabilities appreciate or depreciate in fair value. Gains or losses on the derivative instruments that are linked to the hedged fixed-rate assets and liabilities are expected to substantially offset this unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
154
Interest rate and market risk can be substantial in the mortgage business. Market risk is the risk that values of mortgage assets or revenues will be adversely affected by changes in market conditions such as interest rate movements. To hedge interest rate risk in mortgage banking production income, the Corporation utilizes forward loan sale commitments and other derivative instruments including purchased options. The Corporation also utilizes derivatives such as interest rate options, interest rate swaps, forward settlement contracts and Eurodollar futures as economic hedges of the fair value of mortgage servicing rights (MSRs). For additional information on MSRs, see
Note 19 – Mortgage Servicing Rights
.
The Corporation uses foreign currency contracts to manage the foreign exchange risk associated with certain foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities, as well as the Corporation’s investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries. Foreign exchange contracts, which include spot and forward contracts, represent agreements to exchange the currency of one country for the currency of another country at an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon settlement date. Exposure to loss on these contracts will increase or decrease over their respective lives as currency exchange and interest rates fluctuate.
The Corporation enters into derivative commodity contracts such as futures, swaps, options and forwards as well as non-derivative commodity contracts to provide price risk management services to customers or to manage price risk associated with its physical and financial commodity positions. The non-derivative commodity contracts and physical inventories of commodities expose the Corporation to earnings volatility. Cash flow and fair value accounting hedges provide a method to mitigate a portion of this earnings volatility.
The Corporation purchases credit derivatives to manage credit risk related to certain funded and unfunded credit exposures. Credit derivatives include credit default swaps, total return swaps and swaptions. These derivatives are accounted for as economic hedges and changes in fair value are recorded in other income.
|
Derivatives Designated as Accounting Hedges
|
The Corporation uses various types of interest rate, commodity and foreign exchange derivative contracts to protect against changes in the fair value of its assets and liabilities due to fluctuations in interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices (fair value hedges). The Corporation also uses these types of contracts and equity derivatives to protect against changes in the cash flows of its assets and liabilities, and other forecasted transactions (cash flow hedges). The Corporation hedges its net investment in consolidated non-U.S. operations determined to have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar using forward exchange contracts, cross-currency basis swaps, and by issuing foreign currency-denominated debt (net investment hedges).

Cash Flow Hedges
The table below summarizes certain information related to the Corporation’s derivatives designated as cash flow hedges and net investment hedges for the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
and
2010
. During the next 12 months, net losses in accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI) of approximately $
1.7 billion
($
1.1 billion
after-tax) on derivative instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges are expected to be reclassified into earnings. These net losses reclassified into earnings are expected to primarily reduce net interest income related to the respective hedged items.
Amounts related to commodity price risk reclassified from accumulated OCI are recorded in trading account profits with the underlying hedged item. Amounts related to price risk on restricted stock awards reclassified from accumulated OCI are recorded in personnel expense. Amounts related to price risk on equity investments included in available-for-sale (AFS) securities reclassified from accumulated OCI are recorded in equity investment income with the underlying hedged item.
Amounts related to foreign exchange risk recognized in accumulated OCI on derivatives exclude gains (losses) of $
145 million
and $
(33) million
related to long-term debt designated as a net investment hedge for the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
compared to $
(241) million
and $
135 million
for the same periods in
2010
.

|
Gains reclassified from accumulated OCI to income include
$38 million
related to the discontinuance of certain cash flow hedges because it was no longer probable that the original forecasted transaction would occur.
|
The Corporation entered into equity total return swaps to hedge a portion of restricted stock units (RSUs) granted to certain employees as part of their compensation in prior periods. Certain awards contain clawback provisions which permit the Corporation to cancel all or a portion of the award under specified circumstances, and certain awards may be settled in cash. These RSUs are accrued as liabilities over the vesting period and adjusted to fair value based on changes in the share price of the Corporation’s common stock. From time to time, the Corporation may enter into equity derivatives to minimize the change in the expense to the Corporation driven by fluctuations in the share price of the Corporation’s common stock during the vesting period of any RSUs that may be granted, if any, subject to similar or other terms and conditions. Certain of these derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges of unrecognized unvested awards with the
156
changes in fair value of the hedge recorded in accumulated OCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period as the RSUs affect earnings. The remaining derivatives are accounted for as economic hedges and changes in fair value are recorded in personnel expense. For more information on RSUs and related hedges, see
Note 12 – Shareholders' Equity
.
|
Economic Hedges
|
Derivatives accounted for as economic hedges, because either they did not qualify for or were not designated as accounting hedges, are used by the Corporation to reduce certain risk exposures. The table below presents gains (losses) on these derivatives for the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
and
2010
. These gains (losses) are largely offset by the income or expense that is recorded on the economically hedged item.

Sales and Trading Revenue
|
The Corporation enters into trading derivatives to facilitate client transactions, for principal trading purposes, and to manage risk exposures arising from trading account assets and liabilities. It is the Corporation’s policy to include these derivative instruments in its trading activities which include derivatives and non-derivative cash instruments. The resulting risk from these derivatives is managed on a portfolio basis as part of the Corporation’s
Global Banking & Markets
(
GBAM)
business segment. The related sales and trading revenue generated within
GBAM
is recorded in various income statement line items including trading account profits and net interest income as well as other revenue categories. However, the vast majority of income related to derivative instruments is recorded in trading account profits.
Sales and trading revenue includes changes in the fair value and realized gains and losses on the sales of trading and other assets, net interest income and fees primarily from commissions on equity securities. Revenue is generated by the difference in the client price for an instrument and the price at which the trading desk can execute the trade in the dealer market. For equity securities, commissions related to purchases and sales are recorded in other income on the Consolidated Statement of Income. Changes in the fair value of these securities are included in trading account profits. For debt securities, revenue, with the exception of interest associated with the debt securities, is typically included in trading account profits. Unlike commissions for equity securities, the initial revenue related to broker/dealer services for debt securities is included in the pricing of the instrument rather than being charged through separate fee arrangements. Therefore, this revenue is recorded in trading account profits as part of the initial mark to fair value. For derivatives, all revenue is included in trading account profits. In transactions where the Corporation acts as agent, which includes exchange-traded futures and options, fees are recorded in other income.
Certain instruments, primarily loans, held in the
GBAM
business segment are not considered trading instruments. Gains (losses) on sales and changes in fair value of these instruments, where applicable (e.g., where the fair value option has been elected), are reflected in other income. Interest revenue for debt securities and loans is included in net interest income.
157
The table below, which includes both derivatives and non-derivative cash instruments, identifies the amounts in the respective income statement line items attributable to the Corporation’s sales and trading revenue in
GBAM
, categorized by primary risk, for the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
and
2010
. The difference between total trading account profits in the table below and in the Consolidated Statement of Income relates to trading activities in business segments other than

Credit Derivatives
|
The Corporation enters into credit derivatives primarily to facilitate client transactions and to manage credit risk exposures. Credit derivatives derive value based on an underlying third party-referenced obligation or a portfolio of referenced obligations and generally require the Corporation, as the seller of credit protection, to make payments to a buyer upon the occurrence of a pre-defined credit event. Such credit events generally include bankruptcy of the referenced credit entity and failure to pay under the obligation, as well as acceleration of indebtedness and payment repudiation or moratorium. For credit derivatives based on a portfolio of referenced credits or credit indices, the Corporation may not be required to make payment until a specified amount of loss has occurred and/or may only be required to make payment up to a specified amount.
158
Credit derivative instruments where the Corporation is the seller of credit protection and their expiration at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
are summarized below. These instruments are classified as investment and non-investment grade based on the credit quality of the underlying reference obligation. The Corporation considers ratings of BBB- or higher as investment grade. Non-investment grade includes non-rated credit derivative instruments.

For
December 31, 2010
, total credit-related note amounts have been revised from $
3.6 billion
(as previously reported) to $
6.3 billion
to reflect collateralized debt obligations and collateralized loan obligations held by certain consolidated VIEs.
|

The notional amount represents the maximum amount payable by the Corporation for most credit derivatives. However, the Corporation does not solely monitor its exposure to credit derivatives based on notional amount because this measure does not take into consideration the probability of occurrence. As such, the notional amount is not a reliable indicator of the Corporation’s exposure to these contracts. Instead, a risk framework is used to define risk tolerances and establish limits to help ensure that certain credit risk-related losses occur within acceptable, pre-defined limits.
The Corporation economically hedges its market risk exposure to credit derivatives by entering into a variety of offsetting derivative contracts and security positions. For example, in certain instances, the Corporation may purchase credit protection with identical underlying referenced names to offset its exposure. The carrying amount and notional amount of written credit derivatives for which the Corporation held purchased credit derivatives with identical underlying referenced names and terms at
September 30, 2011
was $
63.7 billion
and $
1.1 trillion
compared to $
43.7 billion
and $
1.4 trillion
at
December 31, 2010
.
Credit-related notes in the table on page
159
include investments in securities issued by collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) and credit-linked note vehicles. These instruments are primarily classified as trading securities. The carrying value of these instruments equals the Corporation’s maximum exposure to loss. The Corporation is not obligated to make any payments to the entities under the terms of the securities owned. The Corporation discloses internal categorizations (i.e., investment grade, non-investment grade) consistent with how risk is managed for these instruments.
|
Credit-related Contingent Features and Collateral
|
The Corporation executes the majority of its derivative contracts in the over-the-counter (OTC) market with large, international financial institutions, including broker/dealers and, to a lesser degree, with a variety of non-financial companies. Substantially all of the derivative transactions are executed on a daily margin basis. Therefore, events such as a credit ratings downgrade (depending on the ultimate rating level) or a breach of credit covenants would typically require an increase in the amount of collateral required of the counterparty, where applicable, and/or allow the Corporation to take additional protective measures such as early termination of all trades. Further, as previously discussed on page
153
, the Corporation enters into legally enforceable master netting agreements which reduce risk by permitting the closeout and netting of transactions with the same counterparty upon the occurrence of certain events.
A majority of the Corporation’s derivative contracts contain credit risk related contingent features, primarily in the form of International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (ISDA) master netting agreements and credit support documentation that enhance the creditworthiness of these instruments compared to other obligations of the respective counterparty with whom the Corporation has transacted (e.g., other debt or equity). These contingent features may be for the benefit of the Corporation as well as its counterparties with respect to changes in the Corporation’s creditworthiness and the mark-to-market exposure under the derivative transactions. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation held cash and securities collateral of $
93.0 billion
and $
86.1 billion
, and posted cash and securities collateral of $
87.8 billion
and $
66.9 billion
in the normal course of business under derivative agreements.
In connection with certain OTC derivative contracts and other trading agreements, the Corporation can be required to provide additional collateral or to terminate transactions with certain counterparties in the event of a downgrade of the senior debt ratings of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. The amount of additional collateral required depends on the contract and is usually a fixed incremental amount and/or the market value of the exposure.
At
September 30, 2011
, the amount of collateral, calculated based on the terms of the contracts that the Corporation and its subsidiaries could be required to post to counterparties but had not yet posted to counterparties was approximately
$4.9 billion
. That amount included
$3.2 billion
in collateral that could be required to be posted as a result of the downgrade by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. on September 21, 2011.
Some counterparties are able to unilaterally terminate certain contracts, or the Corporation may be required to take other action such as find a suitable replacement or obtain a guarantee. At
September 30, 2011
, the current liability recorded for these derivative contracts was
$3.5 billion
, against which the Corporation had posted
$1.6 billion
of collateral for these contracts, resulting in a net uncollateralized liability of
$1.9 billion
. The amount of additional collateral calculated based on the terms of the contracts the Corporation could be required to post is approximately
$2.3 billion
, all of which is included in the
$4.9 billion
figure discussed above.
In addition, if at
September 30, 2011
, the ratings agencies had downgraded their long-term senior debt ratings for the Corporation by one incremental notch, the amount of additional collateral and termination payments contractually required by such derivative contracts and other trading agreements would have been up to approximately
$5.1 billion
comprised of
$3.4 billion
for BANA and
$1.7 billion
for Merrill Lynch. If the agencies had downgraded their long-term senior debt ratings for the Corporation by a second incremental notch, approximately
$1.5 billion
comprised of approximately
$1.0 billion
for BANA and
$500 million
for Merrill Lynch, in additional collateral and termination payments would have been required.

Derivative Valuation Adjustments
|
The Corporation records counterparty credit risk valuation adjustments on derivative assets in order to properly reflect the credit quality of the counterparty. These adjustments are necessary as the market quotes on derivatives do not fully reflect the credit risk of the counterparties to the derivative assets. The Corporation considers collateral and legally enforceable master netting agreements that mitigate its credit exposure to each counterparty in determining the counterparty credit risk valuation adjustment. All or a portion of these counterparty credit valuation adjustments are subsequently adjusted due to changes in the value of the derivative contract, collateral and creditworthiness of the counterparty. During the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
, credit valuation gains (losses) of
$(1.6) billion
and
$(2.0) billion
(
$(81) million
and
$(704) million
, net of hedges) compared to
$400 million
and
$(27) million
(
$183 million
and
$(188) million
, net of hedges) for the same periods in
2010
for counterparty credit risk related to derivative assets were recognized in trading account profits. These credit valuation adjustments were primarily related to the Corporation’s monoline exposure. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the cumulative counterparty credit risk valuation adjustment reduced the derivative assets balance by
$3.0 billion
and
$6.8 billion
.
In addition, the fair value of the Corporation’s or its subsidiaries’ derivative liabilities is adjusted to reflect the impact of the Corporation’s credit quality. During the
three and nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation recorded DVA gains (losses) of
$1.8 billion
and
$1.7 billion
(
$1.7 billion
and
$1.5 billion
, net of hedges) compared to
$(55) million
and
$307 million
(
$(34) million
and
$212 million
, net of hedges) for the same periods in
2010
in trading account profits for changes in the Corporation’s or its subsidiaries’ credit risk. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation’s cumulative DVA reduced the derivative liabilities balance by
$2.7 billion
and
$1.1 billion
.

At
September 30, 2011
, the accumulated net unrealized gains on AFS debt securities included in accumulated OCI were
$4.3 billion
, net of the related deferred taxes of
$2.5 billion
. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation had nonperforming AFS debt securities with a fair value of
$16 million
and
$44 million
.
During the three months ended
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation purchased
$26.2 billion
of U.S. agency securities with contractual maturities greater than 10 years that were classified as held-to-maturity debt securities. At
September 30, 2011
, the amortized cost of held-to-maturity debt securities was
$26.5 billion
and the fair value approximated
$26.5 billion
. At
December 31, 2010
, both the amortized cost and fair value of held-to-maturity debt securities was
$427 million
. At
September 30, 2011
, the fair value of approximately
$11.0 billion
of the held-to-maturity debt securities was in a
$38 million
unrecognized holding loss position, all of which was for a period of less than 12 months. The fair value of the remaining held-to-maturity debt securities was in an
$88 million
unrecognized holding gain position. The net unrecognized holding gain position of the held-to-maturity debt securities was
$50 million
at
September 30, 2011
.

The Corporation recorded other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) losses on debt securities for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
as presented in the table below. A debt security is impaired when its fair value is less than its amortized cost. If the Corporation intends or will more-likely-than-not be required to sell the debt securities prior to recovery, the entire impairment is recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income. For debt securities the Corporation does not intend or will not more-likely-than-not be required to sell, an analysis is performed to determine if any of the impairment is due to credit or whether it is due to other factors (e.g., interest rate). Credit losses are considered unrecoverable and are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income with the remaining portion recorded in accumulated OCI. In certain instances, the credit loss on a debt security may exceed the total impairment in which case, the portion of the credit loss that exceeds the total impairment is recorded as an unrealized gain in accumulated OCI. Balances in the table below exclude
$2 million
and
$6 million
of unrealized gains recorded in accumulated OCI related to such securities for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
and
$18 million
and
$82 million
for the same periods in
2010
.

The Corporation estimates the portion of loss attributable to credit using a discounted cash flow model and estimates the expected cash flows of the underlying collateral using internal credit, interest rate and prepayment risk models that incorporate management’s best estimate of current key assumptions such as default rates, loss severity and prepayment rates. Assumptions used can vary widely from loan to loan and are influenced by such factors as loan interest rate, geographical location of the borrower, borrower characteristics and collateral type. The Corporation then uses a third-party vendor to determine how the underlying collateral cash flows will be distributed to each security issued from the structure. Expected principal and interest cash flows on an impaired debt security are discounted using the effective yield of each individual impaired debt security.
Significant assumptions used in the valuation of non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) were as follows at
September 30, 2011

Additionally, annual constant prepayment speed and loss severity rates are projected considering collateral characteristics such as loan-to-value (LTV), creditworthiness of borrowers as measured using FICO scores and geographic concentrations. The weighted-average severity by collateral type was
45 percent
for prime bonds,
51 percent
for Alt-A bonds and
56 percent
for subprime bonds at
September 30, 2011
. Additionally, default rates are projected by considering collateral characteristics including, but not limited to LTV, FICO and geographic concentration. Weighted-average life default rates by collateral type were
37 percent
for prime bonds,
66 percent
for Alt-A bonds and
62 percent
for subprime bonds at
September 30, 2011
.

, the Corporation owned
12.5 billion
shares and
25.6 billion
shares representing approximately
five percent
and
10 percent
of CCB. Of the Corporation’s investment in CCB at
September 30, 2011
,
10.5 billion
shares are classified as AFS. Sales restrictions on the remaining
two billion
CCB shares continue until August 2013 and accordingly these shares are carried at cost. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the cost basis of the Corporation’s total investment in CCB was
$4.5 billion
and
$9.2 billion
, the carrying value was
$7.2 billion
and
$19.7 billion
and the fair value was
$7.7 billion
and
$20.8 billion
. This investment is recorded in other assets. Dividend income on this investment is recorded in equity investment income and during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
and
2010
, the Corporation recorded dividends of
$836 million
and
$535 million
from CCB. The Corporation remains a significant shareholder in CCB and intends to continue the important long-term strategic alliance with CCB originally entered into in 2005.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Corporation sold its remaining ownership interest of approximately
13.6 million
preferred shares, or
seven percent
of BlackRock, Inc. The investment was recorded in other assets at cost. In connection with the sale, the Corporation recorded a pre-tax gain of
$377 million
.
In 2009, the Corporation formed a joint venture with First Data Corporation (First Data) creating Banc of America Merchant Services, LLC. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the Corporation contributed its merchant processing business to the joint venture and First Data contributed certain merchant processing contracts and personnel resources. The Corporation's investment in the joint venture, which was initially recorded at a fair value of
$4.7 billion
, is accounted for under the equity method of accounting with income recorded in equity investment income. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Corporation recorded
$1.1 billion
of impairment write-downs on the joint venture including
$630 million
in the three months ended September 30, 2011. The joint venture had a carrying value at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
of
$3.4 billion
and
$4.7 billion
with the reduction in carrying value primarily the result of the impairment write-downs.
Th
e impairment write-downs were based on the ongoing financial performance of the joint venture and updated forecasts of its long-term financial performance.

The Corporation mitigates a portion of its credit risk on the residential mortgage portfolio through the use of synthetic securitization vehicles. These vehicles issue long-term notes to investors, the proceeds of which are held as cash collateral. The Corporation pays a premium to the vehicles to purchase mezzanine loss protection on a portfolio of residential mortgages owned by the Corporation. Cash held in the vehicles is used to reimburse the Corporation in the event that losses on the mortgage portfolio exceed
10
basis points (bps) of the original pool balance, up to the remaining amount of purchased loss protection of
$866 million
and
$1.1 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. The vehicles are VIEs from which the Corporation purchases credit protection and in which the Corporation does not have a variable interest; and accordingly, these vehicles are not consolidated by the Corporation. Amounts due from the vehicles are recorded in other income (loss) when the Corporation recognizes a reimbursable loss, as described above. Amounts are collected when reimbursable losses are realized through the sale of the underlying collateral. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation had a receivable of
$390 million
and
$722 million
from these vehicles for reimbursement of losses, and
$35.5 billion
and
$53.9 billion
of residential mortgage loans were referenced under these agreements. The Corporation records an allowance for credit losses on these loans without regard to the existence of the purchased loss protection as the protection does not represent a guarantee of individual loans.
169
In addition, the Corporation has entered into long-term credit protection agreements with FNMA and FHLMC on loans totaling
$21.4 billion
and
$12.9 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, providing full protection on residential mortgage loans that become severely delinquent. All of these loans are individually insured and therefore the Corporation does not record an allowance for credit losses related to these loans.
|
Nonperforming Loans and Leases
|
The table below presents the Corporation’s nonperforming loans and leases including nonperforming TDRs and loans accruing past due 90 days or more at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. Nonperforming loans and leases exclude performing TDRs and loans accounted for under the fair value option. Nonperforming loans held-for-sale (LHFS) are excluded from nonperforming loans and leases as they are recorded at either fair value or the lower of cost or fair value. In addition, PCI loans, consumer credit card loans, business card loans and in general consumer loans not secured by real estate, including renegotiated loans, are not considered nonperforming and are therefore excluded from nonperforming loans and leases in the table below. Real estate-secured past due consumer fully-insured loans are reported as performing since the principal repayment is insured. See
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
for further information on the criteria for classification as nonperforming.

$8.3 billion
of loans on which interest has been curtailed by the Federal Housing Administration, and therefore are no longer accruing interest, although principal is still insured, and
$4.9 billion
and
$8.5 billion

Credit Quality Indicators
|
The Corporation monitors credit quality within its three portfolio segments based on primary credit quality indicators. For more information on the portfolio segments, see
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. Within the home loans portfolio segment, the primary credit quality indicators are refreshed LTV and refreshed FICO score. Refreshed LTV measures the carrying value of the loan as a percentage of the value of property securing the loan, refreshed quarterly. Home equity loans are evaluated using combined loan-to-value (CLTV) which measures the carrying value of the combined loans that have liens against the property and the available line of credit as a percentage of the appraised value of the property securing the loan, refreshed quarterly. Refreshed FICO score measures the creditworthiness of the borrower based on the financial obligations of the borrower and the borrower’s credit history. At a minimum, FICO scores are refreshed quarterly, and in many cases, more frequently. Refreshed FICO score is also a primary credit quality indicator for the credit card and other consumer portfolio segment and the business card portfolio within U.S. small business commercial. The Corporation’s commercial loans are evaluated using pass rated or reservable criticized as the primary credit quality indicators. The term reservable criticized refers to those commercial loans that are internally classified or listed by the Corporation as special mention, substandard or doubtful, which are asset categories defined by regulatory authorities. These assets have an elevated level of risk and may have a high probability of default or total loss. Pass rated refers to all loans not considered reservable criticized. In addition to these primary credit quality indicators, the Corporation uses other credit quality indicators for certain types of loans.
171
The tables below present certain credit quality indicators for the Corporation’s home loans, credit card and other consumer loans, and commercial loan portfolio segments, by class of financing receivables, at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010

Impaired Loans and Troubled Debt Restructurings
|
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due from the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Impaired loans include nonperforming commercial loans, all TDRs, and the renegotiated credit card and other consumer portfolio (collectively, the renegotiated portfolio). Impaired loans exclude nonperforming consumer loans and nonperforming commercial leases unless they are classified as TDRs. Loans accounted for under the fair value option are also excluded. PCI loans are excluded and reported separately on page
184
.
Home Loans
Impaired home loans within the home loans portfolio segment consist entirely of loans modified as TDRs. Substantially all modifications of home loans meet the definition of TDRs. Modifications of home loans are done in accordance with the government's Making Home Affordable Program (government modifications) or the Corporation's proprietary programs (proprietary modifications). These modifications are considered to be TDRs if concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. Concessions may include reductions in interest rates, capitalization of past due amounts, principal and/or interest forbearance, payment extensions, principal and/or interest forgiveness or combinations thereof.
Prior to modification, many of these loans were not considered to be individually impaired as they were less than 180 days past due and were included in homogeneous home loan pools which are collectively evaluated for impairment. Once such a loan has been modified and designated as a TDR, it is individually assessed for impairment. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance specific to impaired loans, home loan TDRs are measured primarily based on the net present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at a loan's original effective interest rate. If the carrying value of a TDR exceeds this amount, a specific allowance for loan losses is established in that amount. Alternatively, home loan TDRs that are considered to be dependent solely on the collateral for repayment (e.g., due to the lack of income verification) are measured based on the estimated fair value of the collateral and a charge-off is recorded if the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the collateral. Home loans that reached 180 days past due prior to modification would have been charged-off to their net realizable value before they were modified as TDRs in accordance with established policy. Therefore, the modification of home loans that are 180 or more days past due as TDRs does not have an impact on the allowance for credit losses nor are additional charge-offs required at the time of modification. Subsequent declines in the fair value of the collateral after a loan has reached 180 days past due are recorded as charge-offs. Fully-insured loans are protected against principal loss, and therefore, the Corporation does not record an allowance for credit losses on the outstanding principal balance, even after they have been modified in a TDR.
The net present value of the estimated cash flows is based on model-driven estimates of projected payments, prepayments, defaults and loss-given-default (LGD). Using statistical modeling methodologies, the Corporation estimates the probability that a loan will default prior to maturity based on the attributes of each loan. The factors that are most relevant to the probability of default are the refreshed LTV or in the case of a subordinated lien, refreshed CLTV, borrower credit score, months since origination (i.e., vintage) and geography. Each of these factors is further broken down by present collection status (whether the loan is current, delinquent, in default or in bankruptcy). Severity (or LGD) is estimated based on the refreshed LTV for the first mortgages or CLTV for subordinated liens. The estimates are based on the Corporation's historical experience, but are adjusted to reflect an assessment of environmental factors that may not be reflected in the historical data, such as changes in real estate values, local and national economies, underwriting standards and the regulatory environment. The probability of default models also incorporate recent experience with modification programs, a loan's default history prior to modification and the change in borrower payments post-modification.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, remaining commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose terms have been modified in a home loan TDR were immaterial. Home loan foreclosed properties totaled
$1.9 billion
and
$1.2 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.

The table below presents impaired loans in the Corporation’s home loans portfolio segment at
September 30, 2011
,
December 31, 2010
and
September 30, 2010
. The impaired home loans table below includes primarily loans managed by Legacy Asset Servicing. Certain impaired home loans do not have a related allowance as the current valuation of these impaired loans exceeded the carrying value.

Includes other modifications such as term or payment extensions, principal and/or interest forgiveness and other.
In addition to the home loans modified in TDRs presented above, the Corporation also enters into trial modifications with certain borrowers under the government modifications and the proprietary modifications. Trial modifications generally represent a three- to four-month period whereby the borrower makes monthly payments under the anticipated modified payment terms prior to a formal modification. Trial modifications lasting more than four months are considered TDRs. Upon successful completion of a trial modification, the Corporation and the borrower enter into a permanent modification where the terms of the loan are formally modified. Approximately half of all loans that entered into a trial modification during the first six months of
2011
became permanent modifications as of
September 30, 2011
. Permanent modifications include reductions in interest rates, capitalization of past due amounts, principal and/or interest forbearance, payment extensions, principal and/or interest forgiveness or combinations thereof. Substantially all permanent modifications are considered TDRs and are included in the TDR disclosures herein. As of
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation had
2,446
loans that were in trial modifications and were not considered TDRs, with an unpaid principal balance of
$485 million
and a carrying value of
$341 million
. Home loans in a trial period that are not considered TDRs are measured for impairment as part of homogeneous home loan pools which are collectively evaluated for impairment. The Corporation recognizes that these loans have different risk characteristics than those loans not currently in a trial modification and reflects this increased risk associated with these loans in its allowance for loan losses.
177
The following tables present the carrying value of loans that entered into payment default during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
and during any of the three calendar quarters within the nine months ended
September 30, 2011
and that had been modified in a TDR during the 12 months preceding each quarterly period, measured as of the end of each quarterly period. A payment default for home loan TDRs is recognized when a borrower has missed three monthly payments (not necessarily consecutively) since modification.

Credit Card and Other Consumer
The credit card and other consumer portfolio segment includes impaired loans that have been modified as a TDR. The Corporation seeks to assist customers that are experiencing financial difficulty by modifying loans while ensuring compliance with federal laws and guidelines. Substantially all of the Corporation's credit card and other consumer loan modifications involve reducing the cardholder's interest rate on the account and placing the customer on a fixed payment plan not exceeding 60 months, all of which are considered TDRs. In all cases, the customer's available line of credit is canceled. The Corporation makes loan modifications directly with borrowers for debt held only by the Corporation (internal programs). Additionally, the Corporation makes loan modifications for borrowers working with third-party renegotiation agencies which provide solutions to customers' entire unsecured debt structures (external programs).
All credit card and other consumer loans not secured by real estate, including modified loans, remain on accrual status until the loan is either charged-off or paid in full. The allowance for impaired credit card loans is based on the present value of projected cash flows discounted using the portfolio's average contractual interest rate, excluding promotionally priced loans, in effect prior to restructuring. Prior to modification, credit card and other consumer loans are included in homogeneous pools which are collectively evaluated for impairment. For these portfolios, loss forecast models are utilized that consider a variety of factors including but not limited to historical loss experience, delinquencies, economic trends and credit scores.
178
The tables below provide information on the Corporation's primary modification programs for the renegotiated portfolio. At
September 30, 2011
,
December 31, 2010
and
September 30, 2010
, all renegotiated credit card and other consumer loans were considered impaired and have a related allowance as shown in the table below.

Credit card and other consumer loans are deemed to be in payment default during the quarter in which a borrower misses the second of two consecutive payments. Payment defaults are one of the factors considered when projecting future cash flows in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses for impaired credit card and other consumer loans. Loans that entered into payment default during the
three months ended September 30, 2011
and during any of the three calendar quarters within the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
and that had been modified in a TDR during the 12 months preceding each quarterly period, measured as of the end of each quarterly period had carrying values as of
September 30, 2011
of
$150 million
and
$749 million
for U.S. credit card,
$113 million
and
$316 million
for non-U.S. credit card and
$33 million
and
$155 million
for direct/indirect consumer.

At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation had a renegotiated TDR portfolio of
$8.2 billion
and
$11.4 billion
of which
$6.3 billion
was current or less than 30 days past due under the modified terms at
September 30, 2011
. The renegotiated TDR portfolio is excluded from nonperforming loans as the Corporation generally does not classify consumer loans not secured by real estate as nonperforming. Instead, these loans are charged off no later than the end of the month in which the loan becomes 180 days past due.

Commercial Loans
Impaired commercial loans, which include nonperforming loans and TDRs (both performing and nonperforming), are primarily measured based on the present value of payments expected to be received, discounted at the loans' original effective interest rate. Commercial impaired loans may also be measured based on observable market prices or, for loans that are solely dependent on the collateral for repayment, the estimated fair value of collateral less estimated costs to sell. If the carrying value of a loan exceeds this amount, a specific allowance is recorded as a component of the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Modifications of loans to commercial borrowers that are experiencing financial difficulty are designed to reduce the Corporation's loss exposure while providing the borrower with an opportunity to work through financial difficulties, often to avoid foreclosure or bankruptcy. Each modification is unique and reflects the individual circumstances of the borrower. Modifications that result in a TDR may include extensions of maturity at a concessionary (below market) rate of interest, payment forbearances, or other actions designed to benefit the customer while mitigating the Corporation's risk exposure. Reductions in interest rates are rare. Instead, the interest rates are typically increased, although the increased rate may not represent a market rate of interest. Concessions may also include principal forgiveness in connection with foreclosure, short sale, or other settlement agreements leading to termination or sale of the loan. Forgiveness of principal is rare.
At the time of restructuring, the loans are remeasured to reflect the impact, if any, on projected cash flows, observable market prices or collateral value resulting from the modified terms. If there was no forgiveness of principal and the interest rate was not decreased, the modification may have little or no impact on the allowance established for the loan. If a portion of the loan is deemed to be uncollectible, a charge-off may be recorded at the time of restructuring. Alternatively, a charge-off may have already been recorded in a previous period such that no charge-off is required at the time of modification.
181
Nonperforming commercial TDRs may be returned to accrual status when, among other criteria, payment in full of all amounts due under the restructured terms is expected and the borrower has demonstrated a sustained period of repayment performance, typically six months. Commercial TDRs that are on accrual status are reported as performing TDRs through the end of the calendar year in which the restructuring occurred or the year in which they are returned to accrual status. In addition, if accruing TDRs bear less than a market rate of interest at the time of modification, they are reported as performing TDRs and thus impaired loans throughout their remaining lives.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, remaining commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose terms have been modified in a commercial loan TDR were immaterial. Commercial foreclosed properties totaled
$721 million
and
$725 million
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.

The following tables present impaired loans in the Corporation's commercial loan portfolio at
September 30, 2011
,
December 31, 2010
and
September 30, 2010
. Certain impaired commercial loans do not have a related allowance as the valuation of these impaired loans exceeded the carrying value, which is net of previously recorded charge-offs.

unpaid principal balance and carrying value of commercial loans that were modified as TDRs during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, along with charge-offs that were recorded during the calendar quarter in which the modification occurred. As a result of the retrospective application of new accounting guidance on TDRs, the Corporation recorded
$1.1 billion
of commercial loan modifications as of
September 30, 2011
, of which
$552 million
were nonperforming TDRs. These newly identified TDRs did not have a significant impact on the Corporation's allowance for credit losses or provision expense. See

A commercial TDR is generally deemed to be in payment default when the loan is 90 or more days past due, including delinquencies that were not resolved as part of the modification. U.S. small business commercial TDRs are deemed to be in payment default during the quarter in which a borrower misses the second of two consecutive payments. Payment defaults are one of the factors considered when projecting future cash flows, along with observable market prices or fair value of collateral when measuring the allowance for loan losses. Loans that were in payment default during the
three- and nine-
month periods ended
September 30, 2011
and that had been modified in a TDR during the period or the preceding 12 months had a carrying value of
$132 million
and
$145 million
for U.S. commercial,
$611 million
and
$627 million
for commercial real estate and
$17 million
and
$58 million
for U.S. small business commercial.

Purchased Credit-impaired Loans
|
PCI loans are acquired loans with evidence of credit quality deterioration since origination for which it is probable at purchase date that the Corporation will be unable to collect all contractually required payments. PCI loans are pooled based on similar characteristics and evaluated for impairment on a pool basis. The Corporation estimates impairment on its PCI loan portfolio in accordance with applicable accounting guidance on contingencies which involves estimating the expected cash flows of each pool using internal credit risk, interest rate and prepayment risk models. The key assumptions used in the models include the Corporation’s estimate of default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds.
184
The table below presents the remaining unpaid principal balance and carrying amount, excluding the valuation allowance, for Countrywide consumer PCI loans at
September 30, 2011
,
June 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. The valuation allowance for Countrywide consumer PCI loans is presented together with the allowance for loan and lease losses. See
Note 7 – Allowance for Credit Losses
for additional information.
Beginning
September 30, 2011
, PCI loans that were acquired as part of the Merrill Lynch acquisition are excluded from the tables below as these loan balances and related accretable yield, nonaccretable difference and valuation allowance are insignificant.

Credit card and other consumer includes
$463 million
of reserves that were transferred to LHFS primarily as a result of the announced agreement to sell the Corporation's Canadian consumer card business.
186
During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation did not record any new additions to the valuation reserve for the PCI loan portfolio. During the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation recorded
$2.0 billion
in provision for credit losses with a corresponding increase in the valuation reserve presented with the allowance for loan and lease losses specifically for the PCI loan portfolio. This compared to
$281 million
and
$1.4 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. Beginning September 30, 2011, PCI loans that were acquired as part of the Merrill Lynch acquisition were excluded from current period disclosures as the valuation allowance associated with these loans is insignificant. The amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses associated with the PCI loan portfolio was
$8.2 billion
,
$8.4 billion
and
$6.4 billion
at
September 30, 2011
,
June 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.
The table below presents the allowance and the carrying value of outstanding loans and leases by portfolio segment at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010

NOTE 8 – Securitizations and Other Variable Interest Entities
|
The Corporation utilizes VIEs in the ordinary course of business to support its own and its customers’ financing and investing needs. The Corporation routinely securitizes loans and debt securities using VIEs as a source of funding for the Corporation and as a means of transferring the economic risk of the loans or debt securities to third parties. The Corporation also administers, structures or invests in other VIEs including CDOs, investment vehicles and other entities. For additional information on the Corporation’s utilization of VIEs, see
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
The following tables present the assets and liabilities of consolidated and unconsolidated VIEs at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, in situations where the Corporation has continuing involvement with transferred assets or where the Corporation otherwise has a variable interest in the VIE. The tables also present the Corporation’s maximum exposure to loss at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
resulting from its involvement with consolidated VIEs and unconsolidated VIEs in which the Corporation holds a variable interest. The Corporation’s maximum exposure to loss is based on the unlikely event that all of the assets in the VIEs become worthless and incorporates not only potential losses associated with assets recorded on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet but also potential losses associated with off-balance sheet commitments such as unfunded liquidity commitments and other contractual arrangements. The Corporation’s maximum exposure to loss does not include losses previously recognized, for example, through write-downs of assets.
The Corporation invests in asset-backed securities (ABS) issued by third-party VIEs with which it has no other form of involvement. These securities are included in
Note 3 – Trading Account Assets and Liabilities
and
Note 5 – Securities
.
In addition, the Corporation uses VIEs such as trust preferred securities trusts in connection with its funding activities. For additional information, see
Note 13 – Long-term Debt
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. The Corporation also uses VIEs in the form of synthetic securitization vehicles to mitigate a portion of the credit risk on its residential mortgage loan portfolio, as described in
Note 6 – Outstanding Loans and Leases
. The Corporation uses VIEs, such as cash funds managed within
Global Wealth & Investment Management (GWIM)
, to provide investment opportunities for clients. These VIEs, which are not consolidated by the Corporation, are not included in the tables within this Note.
Except as described below and in
Note 8 – Securitizations and Other Variable Interest Entities
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
, the Corporation did not provide financial support to consolidated or unconsolidated VIEs during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
or the year ended
December 31, 2010
that it was not previously contractually required to provide, nor does it intend to do so.

As part of its mortgage banking activities, the Corporation securitizes a portion of the first-lien residential mortgage loans it originates or purchases from third parties, generally in the form of MBS guaranteed by government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs), or GNMA in the case of Federal Housing Administration (FHA)-insured and U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)-guaranteed mortgage loans. Securitization usually occurs in conjunction with or shortly after loan closing or purchase. In addition, the Corporation may, from time to time, securitize commercial mortgages it originates or purchases from other entities. The Corporation typically services the loans it securitizes. Further, the Corporation may retain beneficial interests in the securitization trusts including senior and subordinate securities and residual tranches issued by the trusts. Except as described below and in
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
, the Corporation does not provide guarantees or recourse to the securitization trusts other than standard representations and warranties.

The Corporation sells residential mortgage loans to GSEs in the normal course of business and receives MBS in exchange which may then be sold into the market to third-party investors for cash proceeds.
|
|
(2)
|
Substantially all of the first-lien residential mortgage loans securitized are initially classified as LHFS and accounted for under the fair value option. As such, gains are recognized on these LHFS prior to securitization. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation recognized
$636 million
and
$2.5 billion
of gains on these LHFS compared to
$1.3 billion
and
$3.8 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
, net of hedges.
|
In addition to cash proceeds reported in the table above, the Corporation received securities with an initial fair value of
$82 million
and
$510 million
in connection with agency first-lien residential mortgage securitizations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, and
$0
and
$23.4 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. The Corporation also received securities with an initial fair value of
$9 million
and
$36 million
in connection with commercial mortgage securitizations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
and
none
for the
same periods in 2010
. All of these securities were initially classified as Level 2 assets within the fair value hierarchy. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, there were no changes to the initial classification.
The Corporation recognizes consumer MSRs from the sale or securitization of first-lien mortgage loans. Servicing fee and ancillary fee income on consumer mortgage loans serviced, including securitizations where the Corporation has continuing involvement, were
$1.4 billion
and
$4.5 billion
during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$1.6 billion
and
$4.8 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. Servicing advances on consumer mortgage loans, including securitizations where the Corporation has continuing involvement, were
$25.1 billion
and
$24.3 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. The Corporation may have the option to repurchase delinquent loans out of securitization trusts, which reduces the amount of servicing advances it is required to make. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
,
$447 million
and
$8.1 billion
of loans were repurchased from first-lien securitization trusts as a result of loan delinquencies or in order to perform modifications compared to
$3.8 billion
and
$12.2 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. The majority of these loans repurchased were FHA-insured mortgages collateralizing GNMA securities. In addition, the Corporation has retained commercial MSRs from the sale or securitization of commercial mortgage loans. Servicing fee and ancillary fee income on commercial mortgage loans serviced, including securitizations where the Corporation has continuing involvement, were losses of
$17 million
and
$14 million
during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to income of
$14 million
and
$16 million
for the
same periods in 2010
. Servicing advances on commercial mortgage loans, including securitizations where the Corporation has continuing involvement, were
$159 million
and
$156 million
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. For additional information on MSRs, see
Note 19 – Mortgage Servicing Rights
.

Maximum loss exposure excludes the liability for representations and warranties obligations and corporate guarantees and also excludes servicing advances and MSRs. For more information, see
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
and
Note 19 – Mortgage Servicing Rights
.
|
|

|
As a holder of these securities, the Corporation receives scheduled principal and interest payments. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, there were no OTTI losses recorded on those securities classified as AFS debt securities.
|
|
(3)
|
Principal balance outstanding includes loans the Corporation transferred with which the Corporation has continuing involvement, which may include servicing the loans.
|
As a result of a settlement agreement with Assured Guaranty Ltd. and its subsidiaries (Assured Guaranty), the Corporation entered into a loss-sharing reinsurance arrangement involving
21
first-lien RMBS trusts. This obligation is a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the trusts. To the extent that the Corporation services all or a majority of the loans in any of the
21
trusts, the Corporation is the primary beneficiary. At
September 30, 2011
,
19
of these trusts were consolidated. Assets and liabilities of the consolidated trusts and the Corporation’s maximum loss exposure to consolidated and unconsolidated trusts are included in the table above as non-agency prime and subprime trusts. For additional information, see
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
.
Home Equity Loans
The Corporation maintains interests in home equity securitization trusts to which it transferred home equity loans. These retained interests include senior and subordinate securities and residual interests. In addition, the Corporation may be obligated to provide subordinate funding to the trusts during a rapid amortization event. The Corporation also services the loans in the trusts. Except as described below and in
Note 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
, the Corporation does not provide guarantees or recourse to the securitization trusts other than standard representations and warranties. There were no securitizations of home equity loans during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. All of the home equity trusts have entered the amortization phase and, accordingly, there were no collections reinvested in revolving period securitizations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
. Collections reinvested in revolving period securitizations were
$4 million
and
$20 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
.

Included in the table above are consolidated and unconsolidated home equity loan securitizations that have entered a rapid amortization period and for which the Corporation is obligated to provide subordinated funding. During this period, cash payments from borrowers are accumulated to repay outstanding debt securities and the Corporation continues to make advances to borrowers when they draw on their lines of credit. The Corporation then transfers the newly generated receivables into the securitization vehicles and is reimbursed only after other parties in the securitization have received all of the cash flows to which they are entitled. If loan losses requiring draws on monoline insurers’ policies, which protect the bondholders in the securitization, exceed a certain level, the Corporation may not receive reimbursement for all of the funds advanced to borrowers, as the senior bondholders and the monoline insurers have priority for repayment. The Corporation evaluates each of these securitizations for potential losses due to non-recoverable advances by estimating the amount and timing of future losses on the underlying loans, the excess spread available to cover such losses and potential cash flow shortfalls during rapid amortization. This evaluation, which includes the number of loans still in revolving status, the amount of available credit and when those loans will lose revolving status, is also used to determine whether the Corporation has a variable interest that is more than insignificant and must consolidate the trust. A maximum funding obligation attributable to rapid amortization cannot be calculated as a home equity borrower has the ability to pay down and re-draw balances. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, home equity loan securitization transactions in rapid amortization for which the Corporation has a subordinate funding obligation, including both consolidated and unconsolidated trusts, had
$11.0 billion
and
$12.5 billion
of trust certificates outstanding. This amount is significantly greater than the amount the Corporation expects to fund. The charges that will ultimately be recorded as a result of the rapid amortization events depend on the undrawn available credit on the home equity lines, which totaled
$518 million
and
$639 million
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, as well as performance of the loans, the amount of subsequent draws and the timing of related cash flows. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the reserve for losses on expected future draw obligations on the home equity loan securitizations in rapid amortization for which the Corporation has a subordinated funding obligation was
$93 million
and
$131 million
.
The Corporation has consumer MSRs from the sale or securitization of home equity loans. The Corporation recorded
$16 million
and
$49 million
of servicing fee income related to home equity loan securitizations during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$19 million
and
$60 million
for the
same periods in 2010
. The Corporation repurchased
$6 million
and
$11 million
of loans from home equity securitization trusts in order to perform modifications during
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$4 million
and
$15 million
for the
same periods in 2010
.

Credit Card Securitizations
|
The Corporation securitizes originated and purchased credit card loans. The Corporation’s continuing involvement with the securitization trusts includes servicing the receivables, retaining an undivided interest (seller’s interest) in the receivables, and holding certain retained interests including senior and subordinate securities, discount receivables, subordinate interests in accrued interest and fees on the securitized receivables, and cash reserve accounts. The seller’s interest in the trusts, which is pari passu to the investors’ interest, and the discount receivables are classified in loans and leases.
The table below summarizes select information related to credit card securitization trusts in which the Corporation held a variable interest at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.

In the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
,
$2.9 billion
of new senior debt securities were issued to external investors from the credit card securitization trusts and
none
for the same period in 2011.
During the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
, subordinate securities with a notional principal amount of
$11.5 billion
and a stated interest rate of
zero percent
were issued by certain credit card securitization trusts to the Corporation and
none
for the same period in 2011. In addition, the Corporation elected to designate a specified percentage of new receivables transferred to the trusts as “discount receivables” such that principal collections thereon are added to finance charges which increases the yield in the trust. Through the designation of newly transferred receivables as discount receivables, the Corporation has subordinated a portion of its seller’s interest to the investors’ interest. These actions, which were specifically permitted by the terms of the trust documents, were taken in an effort to address the decline in the excess spread of the U.S. and United Kingdom (U.K.) credit card securitization trusts. The U.S. election expired June 30, 2011. The issuance of subordinate securities and the discount receivables election had no impact on the Corporation’s consolidated results of operations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
.

Resecuritization Trusts
The Corporation transfers existing securities, typically MBS, into resecuritization vehicles at the request of customers seeking securities with specific characteristics. The Corporation may also enter into resecuritizations of securities within its investment portfolio for purposes of improving liquidity and capital, and managing credit or interest rate risk. Generally, there are no significant ongoing activities performed in a resecuritization trust and no single investor has the unilateral ability to liquidate the trust.
193
The Corporation resecuritized
$4.2 billion
and
$27.9 billion
of securities during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$11.5 billion
and
$83.3 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. Net gains on sales totaled
$173 million
and
$909 million
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to net losses of
$16 million
and
$144 million
for the
same periods in 2010
. The Corporation consolidates a resecuritization trust if it has sole discretion over the design of the trust, including the identification of securities to be transferred in and the structure of securities to be issued, and also retains a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the trust. If one or a limited number of third-party investors share responsibility for the design of the trust and purchase a significant portion of securities, including subordinate securities issued by non-agency trusts, the Corporation does not consolidate the trust.
Municipal Bond Trusts
The Corporation administers municipal bond trusts that hold highly-rated, long-term, fixed-rate municipal bonds. A majority of the bonds are rated AAA or AA and some benefit from insurance provided by third parties. The trusts obtain financing by issuing floating-rate trust certificates that reprice on a weekly or other basis to third-party investors. The Corporation may serve as remarketing agent and/or liquidity provider for the trusts. The floating-rate investors have the right to tender the certificates at specified dates, often with as little as seven days’ notice. Should the Corporation be unable to remarket the tendered certificates, it is generally obligated to purchase them at par under standby liquidity facilities unless the bond’s credit rating has declined below investment-grade or there has been an event of default or bankruptcy of the issuer and insurer.
The Corporation also provides credit enhancement to investors in certain municipal bond trusts whereby the Corporation guarantees the payment of interest and principal on floating-rate certificates issued by these trusts in the event of default by the issuer of the underlying municipal bond. If a customer holds the residual interest in a trust, that customer typically has the unilateral ability to liquidate the trust at any time, while the Corporation typically has the ability to trigger the liquidation of that trust if the market value of the bonds held in the trust declines below a specified threshold. This arrangement is designed to limit market losses to an amount that is less than the customer’s residual interest, effectively preventing the Corporation from absorbing losses incurred on assets held within that trust. The weighted-average remaining life of bonds held in the trusts at
September 30, 2011
was
13.0
years. There were no material write-downs or downgrades of assets or issuers during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
.
During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation was the transferor of assets into unconsolidated municipal bond trusts and received cash proceeds from new securitizations of
$182 million
and
$597 million
compared to
$226 million
and
$1.0 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the principal balance outstanding for unconsolidated municipal bond securitization trusts for which the Corporation was transferor was
$2.1 billion
and
$2.2 billion
.
The Corporation’s liquidity commitments to unconsolidated municipal bond trusts, including those for which the Corporation was transferor, totaled
$3.4 billion
and
$4.0 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
.
Automobile and Other Securitization Trusts
The Corporation transfers automobile and other loans into securitization trusts, typically to improve liquidity or manage credit risk. At
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation serviced assets or otherwise had continuing involvement with automobile and other securitization trusts with outstanding balances of
$6.5 billion
, including trusts collateralized by automobile loans of
$4.6 billion
, student loans of
$1.2 billion
, and other loans and receivables of
$693 million
. At
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation serviced assets or otherwise had continuing involvement with automobile and other securitization trusts with outstanding balances of
$10.5 billion
, including trusts collateralized by automobile loans of
$8.4 billion
, student loans of
$1.3 billion
, and other loans and receivables of
$774 million
.
|
Collateralized Debt Obligation Vehicles
|
CDO vehicles hold diversified pools of fixed-income securities, typically corporate debt or ABS, which they fund by issuing multiple tranches of debt and equity securities. Synthetic CDOs enter into a portfolio of credit default swaps to synthetically create exposure to fixed-income securities. CLOs are a subset of CDOs which hold pools of loans, typically corporate loans or commercial mortgages. CDOs are typically managed by third-party portfolio managers. The Corporation transfers assets to these CDOs, holds securities issued by the CDOs and may be a derivative counterparty to the CDOs, including a credit default swap counterparty for synthetic CDOs. The Corporation has also entered into total return swaps with certain CDOs whereby the Corporation absorbs the economic returns generated by specified assets held by the CDO. The Corporation receives fees for structuring CDOs and providing liquidity support for super senior tranches of securities issued by certain CDOs. No third parties provide a significant amount of similar commitments to these CDOs.

. The CDO financing facilities, which are consolidated, obtain funding from third parties for CDO positions which are principally classified in trading account assets on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The CDO financing facilities’ long-term debt at
September 30, 2011
totaled
$2.3 billion
, all of which has recourse to the general credit of the Corporation. The Corporation’s maximum exposure to loss is significantly less than the total assets of the CDO vehicles in the table above because the Corporation typically has exposure to only a portion of the total assets.
At
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation had
$2.7 billion
of aggregate liquidity exposure to CDOs. This amount includes
$872 million
of commitments to CDOs to provide funding for super senior exposures and
$1.8 billion
notional amount of derivative contracts with unconsolidated special purpose entities (SPEs), principally CDO vehicles, which hold non-super senior CDO debt securities or other debt securities on the Corporation’s behalf. See
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
for additional information. The Corporation's liquidity exposure to CDOs at September 30, 2011 is included in the table above to the extent that the Corporation sponsored the CDO vehicle or the liquidity exposure is more than insignificant compared to total assets of the CDO vehicle. Liquidity exposure included in the table is reported net of previously recorded losses.

Credit-linked and equity-linked note vehicles issue notes which pay a return that is linked to the credit or equity risk of a specified company or debt instrument. The vehicles purchase high-grade assets as collateral and enter into credit default swaps or equity derivatives to synthetically create the credit or equity risk to pay the specified return on the notes. The Corporation is typically the counterparty for some or all of the credit and equity derivatives and, to a lesser extent, it may invest in securities issued by the vehicles. The Corporation may also enter into interest rate or foreign currency derivatives with the vehicles. The Corporation also had approximately
$853 million
of other liquidity commitments, including written put options and collateral value guarantees, with unconsolidated credit-linked and equity-linked note vehicles at
September 30, 2011
.
Repackaging vehicles issue notes that are designed to incorporate risk characteristics desired by customers. The vehicles hold debt instruments such as corporate bonds, convertible bonds or ABS with the desired credit risk profile. The Corporation enters into derivatives with the vehicles to change the interest rate or foreign currency profile of the debt instruments. If a vehicle holds convertible bonds and the Corporation retains the conversion option, the Corporation is deemed to have a controlling financial interest and consolidates the vehicle.
Asset acquisition vehicles acquire financial instruments, typically loans, at the direction of a single customer and obtain funding through the issuance of structured liabilities to the Corporation. At the time the vehicle acquires an asset, the Corporation enters into total return swaps with the customer such that the economic returns of the asset are passed through to the customer. The Corporation is exposed to counterparty credit risk if the asset declines in value and the customer defaults on its obligation to the Corporation under the total return swaps. The Corporation’s risk may be mitigated by collateral or other arrangements. The Corporation consolidates these vehicles because it has the power to manage the assets in the vehicles and owns all of the structured liabilities issued by the vehicles.
The Corporation’s maximum exposure to loss from customer vehicles includes the notional amount of the credit or equity derivatives to which the Corporation is a counterparty, net of losses previously recorded, and the Corporation’s investment, if any, in securities issued by the vehicles. It has not been reduced to reflect the benefit of offsetting swaps with the customers or collateral arrangements.

Investment Vehicles
The Corporation sponsors, invests in or provides financing to a variety of investment vehicles that hold loans, real estate, debt securities or other financial instruments and are designed to provide the desired investment profile to investors. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation’s consolidated investment vehicles had total assets of
$1.3 billion
and
$5.6 billion
. The Corporation also held investments in unconsolidated vehicles with total assets of
$5.5 billion
and
$7.9 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. The Corporation’s maximum exposure to loss associated with both consolidated and unconsolidated investment vehicles totaled
$3.2 billion
and
$8.7 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
comprised primarily of on-balance sheet assets less non-recourse liabilities.
Collective Investment Funds
The Corporation is trustee for certain common and collective investment funds that provide investment opportunities for eligible clients of
GWIM
. These funds, which had total assets of
$10.9 billion
at
September 30, 2011
, hold a variety of cash, debt and equity investments. At
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation did not have a variable interest in these funds. The Corporation consolidated a stable value collective investment fund with total assets of
$8.1 billion
at
December 31, 2010
, for which the Corporation had the unilateral ability to replace the fund’s asset manager. The fund was liquidated during the
three months ended March 31, 2011
.
Leveraged Lease Trusts
The Corporation’s net investment in consolidated leveraged lease trusts totaled
$4.9 billion
and
$5.2 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. The trusts hold long-lived equipment such as rail cars, power generation and distribution equipment, and commercial aircraft. The Corporation structures the trusts and holds a significant residual interest. The net investment represents the Corporation’s maximum loss exposure to the trusts in the unlikely event that the leveraged lease investments become worthless. Debt issued by the leveraged lease trusts is non-recourse to the Corporation. The Corporation has no liquidity exposure to these leveraged lease trusts.
197
Asset Acquisition Conduits
The Corporation administered two asset acquisition conduits which acquired assets on behalf of the Corporation or its customers. These conduits had total assets of
$640 million
at
December 31, 2010
. The conduits were liquidated during the
three months ended June 30, 2011
. Liquidation of the conduits did not impact the Corporation’s consolidated results of operations. For more information on the asset acquisition conduits, see
Note 8 – Securitizations and Other Variable Interest Entities
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
Real Estate Vehicles
The Corporation held investments in unconsolidated real estate vehicles of
$5.2 billion
and
$5.4 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, which consisted of investments in unconsolidated limited partnerships that finance the construction and rehabilitation of affordable rental housing. An unrelated third party is typically the general partner and has control over the significant activities of the partnership. The Corporation earns a return primarily through the receipt of tax credits allocated to the affordable housing projects. The Corporation’s risk of loss is mitigated by policies requiring that the project qualify for the expected tax credits prior to making its investment. The Corporation may from time to time be asked to invest additional amounts to support a troubled project. Such additional investments have not been and are not expected to be significant.
Other Asset-backed Financing Arrangements
The Corporation transferred pools of securities to certain independent third parties and provided financing for approximately
75 percent
of the purchase price under asset-backed financing arrangements. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation’s maximum loss exposure under these financing arrangements was
$5.4 billion
and
$6.5 billion
, substantially all of which was classified as loans on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. All principal and interest payments have been received when due in accordance with their contractual terms. These arrangements are not included in the table on page
197
because the purchasers are not VIEs.

NOTE 9 – Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
|
|
Background
|
The Corporation securitizes first-lien residential mortgage loans, generally in the form of MBS guaranteed by the GSEs or by GNMA in the case of FHA-insured, VA-guaranteed and Rural Housing Service-guaranteed mortgage loans. In addition, in prior years, legacy companies and certain subsidiaries sold pools of first-lien residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other second-lien loans as private-label securitizations (in certain of these securitizations, monolines or financial guarantee providers insured all or some of the securities), or in the form of whole loans. In connection with these transactions, the Corporation or certain subsidiaries or legacy companies made various representations and warranties. These representations and warranties, as governed by the agreements, related to, among other things, the ownership of the loan, the validity of the lien securing the loan, the absence of delinquent taxes or liens against the property securing the loan, the process used to select the loan for inclusion in a transaction, the loan's compliance with any applicable loan criteria, including underwriting standards, and the loan's compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws. Breaches of these representations and warranties may result in the requirement to repurchase mortgage loans or to otherwise make whole or provide other remedies to the GSEs, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) with respect to FHA-insured loans, VA, whole-loan buyers, securitization trusts, monoline insurers or other financial guarantors (collectively, repurchases). In such cases, the Corporation would be exposed to any credit loss on the repurchased mortgage loans after accounting for any mortgage insurance or mortgage guaranty payments that it may receive.
Subject to the requirements and limitations of the applicable sales and securitization agreements, these representations and warranties can be enforced by the GSEs, HUD, VA, the whole-loan buyer, the securitization trustee or others as governed by the applicable agreement or, in certain first-lien and home equity securitizations where monoline insurers or other financial guarantee providers have insured all or some of the securities issued, by the monoline insurer or other financial guarantor at any time. In the case of loans sold to parties other than the GSEs or GNMA, the contractual liability to repurchase typically arises only if there is a breach of the representations and warranties that materially and adversely affects the interest of the investor, or investors, in the loan, or of the monoline insurer or other financial guarantor (as applicable). Contracts with the GSEs do not contain an equivalent requirement, while GNMA generally limits repurchases to loans that are not insured or guaranteed as required. The Corporation believes that the longer a loan performs prior to default, the less likely it is that an alleged underwriting breach of representations and warranties had a material impact on the loan's performance. Historically, most demands for repurchase have occurred within the first several years after origination, generally after a loan has defaulted. However, the time horizon has lengthened primarily due to a significant increase in GSE claims related to loans that had defaulted more than
18
months prior to the claim and to loans where the borrower made at least
25
payments.
198
The Corporation’s credit loss would be reduced by any recourse it may have to organizations (e.g., correspondents) that, in turn, had sold such loans to the Corporation based upon its agreements with these organizations. When a loan is originated by a correspondent or other third party, the Corporation typically has the right to seek a recovery of related repurchase losses from that originator. Many of the correspondent originators of loans in 2004 through 2008 are no longer in business and the Corporation is unable to recover valid claims. In the event a loan is originated and underwritten by a correspondent who obtains FHA insurance, even if they are no longer in business, any breach of FHA guidelines is the direct obligation of the correspondent, not the Corporation. At
September 30, 2011
, approximately
28 percent
of the outstanding repurchase claims relate to loans purchased from correspondents or other parties compared to approximately
25 percent
at
December 31, 2010
. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation experienced a decline in recoveries from correspondents and other parties; however, the actual recovery rate may vary from period to period based upon the underlying mix of correspondents and other parties (e.g., active, inactive, out-of-business originators) from which recoveries are sought.
The Corporation structures its operations to limit the risk of repurchase and accompanying credit exposure by seeking to ensure consistent production of mortgages in accordance with its underwriting procedures and by servicing those mortgages consistent with its contractual obligations. In addition, certain securitizations include guarantees written to protect certain purchasers of the loans from credit losses up to a specified amount. The fair value of the obligations to be absorbed under the representations and warranties and guarantees provided is recorded as an accrued liability when the loans are sold. This liability for probable losses is updated by accruing a representations and warranties provision in mortgage banking income. This is done throughout the life of the loan, as necessary when additional relevant information becomes available. The methodology used to estimate the liability for representations and warranties is a function of the representations and warranties given and considers a variety of factors, which include, depending on the counterparty, actual defaults, estimated future defaults, historical loss experience, estimated home prices, other economic conditions, estimated probability that a repurchase claim will be received, including consideration of whether presentation thresholds will be met, number of payments made by the borrower prior to default and estimated probability that a loan will be required to be repurchased. The Corporation also considers bulk settlements when determining its estimated liability for representations and warranties. The estimate of the liability for representations and warranties is based upon currently available information, significant judgment, and a number of factors, including those set forth above, that are subject to change. Changes to any one of these factors could significantly impact the estimate of the liability and could have a material adverse impact on the Corporation's results of operations for any particular period. Given that these factors vary by counterparty, the Corporation analyzes representations and warranties obligations based on the specific counterparty, or type of counterparty, with whom the sale was made. Generally the volume of unresolved repurchase claims from the FHA and VA for loans in GNMA-guaranteed securities is not significant because the requests are limited in number and are typically resolved quickly.
|
Settlement Actions
|
The Corporation has vigorously contested any request for repurchase when it concludes that a valid basis for repurchase claim did not exist and will continue to do so in the future. However, in an effort to resolve these legacy mortgage-related issues, the Corporation has reached bulk settlements, or agreements for bulk settlements, including settlement amounts which have been material, with counterparties in lieu of a loan-by-loan review process. The Corporation may reach other settlements in the future if opportunities arise on terms it believes to be advantageous to the Corporation. The following provides a summary of the larger bulk settlement actions beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010 followed by details of the Corporation's representations and warranties liability, including claims status.
Settlement with the Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee
On
June 28, 2011
, the Corporation, BAC Home Loans Servicing, LP (BAC HLS, which was subsequently merged with and into BANA in July 2011), and its legacy Countrywide affiliates entered into a settlement agreement with the Bank of New York Mellon (BNY Mellon), as trustee (the Trustee), to resolve all outstanding and potential claims related to alleged representations and warranties breaches (including repurchase claims), substantially all historical loan servicing claims and certain other historical claims with respect to
525
legacy Countrywide first-lien and
five
second-lien non-GSE residential mortgage-backed securitization trusts (the Covered Trusts) containing loans principally originated between
2004
and
2008
for which BNY Mellon acts as trustee or indenture trustee (the BNY Mellon Settlement). The Covered Trusts had an original principal balance of approximately
$424 billion
, of which
$409 billion
was originated between
2004
and
2008
, and total outstanding principal and unpaid principal balance of loans that had defaulted (collectively unpaid principal balance) of approximately
$220 billion
at June 28, 2011, of which
$217 billion
was originated between
2004
and
2008
. The BNY Mellon Settlement is supported by a group of
22
institutional investors (the Investor Group) and is subject to final court approval and certain other conditions.
The BNY Mellon Settlement provides for a cash payment of
$8.5 billion
(the Settlement Payment) to the Trustee for distribution to the Covered Trusts after final court approval of the BNY Mellon Settlement. In addition to the Settlement Payment, the Corporation is obligated to pay attorneys' fees and costs to the Investor Group's counsel as well as all fees and expenses incurred by the Trustee related to obtaining final court approval of the BNY Mellon Settlement and certain tax rulings, which are currently estimated at
$100 million
.
199
The BNY Mellon Settlement does not cover a small number of legacy Countrywide-issued first-lien non-GSE RMBS transactions with loans originated principally between
2004
and
2008
for various reasons, including for example,
six
legacy Countrywide-issued first-lien non-GSE RMBS transactions in which BNY Mellon is not the trustee. The BNY Mellon Settlement also does not cover legacy Countrywide-issued second-lien securitization transactions in which a monoline insurer or other financial guarantor provides financial guaranty insurance. In addition, because the settlement is with the Trustee on behalf of the Covered Trusts and releases rights under the governing agreements for the Covered Trusts, the settlement does not release investors’ securities law or fraud claims based upon disclosures made in connection with their decision to purchase, sell or hold securities issued by the Covered Trusts. To date, various investors, including certain members of the Investor Group, are pursuing securities law or fraud claims related to one or more of the Covered Trusts. The Corporation is not able to determine whether any additional securities law or fraud claims will be made by investors in the Covered Trusts. For information about mortgage-related securities law or fraud claims, see Countrywide Equity and Debt Securities Matters and Mortgage-backed Securities Litigation under Litigation and Regulatory Matters in
Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
and in
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
. For those Covered Trusts where a monoline insurer or other financial guarantor has an independent right to assert repurchase claims directly, the BNY Mellon Settlement does not release such insurer’s or guarantor’s repurchase claims.
Under an order entered by the court in connection with the BNY Mellon Settlement, potentially interested persons had the opportunity to give notice of intent to object to the settlement (including on the basis that more information was needed) until August 30, 2011. Approximately
44
groups or entities appeared prior to the deadline. Certain of these groups or entities filed notices of intent to object, made motions to intervene, or both filed notices of intent to object and made motions to intervene. The parties filing motions to intervene include the Attorneys General of the states of New York and Delaware, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Federal Housing Finance Agency. These motions have not yet been ruled on by the court. Certain of the motions to intervene and/or notices of intent to object allege various purported bases for opposition to the settlement, including challenges to the nature of the court proceeding and the lack of an opt-out mechanism, alleged conflicts of interest on the part of the institutional investor group and/or the Trustee, the inadequacy of the settlement amount and the method of allocating the settlement amount among the Covered Trusts, while other motions do not make substantive objections but state that they need more information about the settlement. A number of investors opposed to the settlement removed the proceeding to federal court. On
October 19, 2011
, the federal court denied BNY Mellon's motion to remand the proceeding to state court, and BNY Mellon, as well as investors that have intervened in support of the BNY Mellon Settlement, have petitioned to appeal the denial of this motion.
It is not currently possible to predict how many of the parties who have appeared in the court proceeding will ultimately object to the BNY Mellon Settlement, whether the objections will prevent receipt of final court approval or the ultimate outcome of the court approval process, which can include appeals and could take a substantial period of time. In particular, conduct of discovery and the resolution of the objections to the settlement and any appeals could take a substantial period of time and these factors, along with the recent removal of the proceedings to federal court, could materially delay the timing of final court approval. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict when the court approval process will be completed.
If final court approval is not obtained by
December 31, 2015
, the Corporation and legacy Countrywide may withdraw from the BNY Mellon Settlement, if the Trustee consents. The BNY Mellon Settlement also provides that if Covered Trusts representing unpaid principal balance exceeding a specified amount are excluded from the final BNY Mellon Settlement, based on investor objections or otherwise, the Corporation and legacy Countrywide have the option to withdraw from the BNY Mellon Settlement pursuant to the terms of the BNY Mellon Settlement agreement.
There can be no assurance that final court approval of the settlement will be obtained, that all conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement will be satisfied or, if certain conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement permitting withdrawal are met, that the Corporation and legacy Countrywide will not determine to withdraw from the settlement. If final court approval is not obtained or if the Corporation and legacy Countrywide determine to withdraw from the BNY Mellon Settlement in accordance with its terms, the Corporation’s future representations and warranties losses could be substantially different than existing accruals and the estimated range of possible loss over existing accruals described under

Settlement with Assured Guaranty
On
April 14, 2011
, the Corporation, including its legacy Countrywide affiliates, entered into an agreement with Assured Guaranty, to resolve all of the monoline insurer’s outstanding and potential repurchase claims related to alleged representations and warranties breaches involving
29
first- and second-lien RMBS trusts where Assured Guaranty provided financial guarantee insurance (the Assured Guaranty Settlement). The agreement also resolves historical loan servicing issues and other potential liabilities with respect to these trusts. The agreement covers
21
first-lien RMBS trusts and
eight
second-lien RMBS trusts, which had an original principal balance of approximately
$35.8 billion
and total unpaid principal balance of approximately
$20.2 billion
as of
April 14, 2011
. The agreement includes cash payments totaling approximately
$1.1 billion
to Assured Guaranty, as well as a loss-sharing reinsurance arrangement that had an expected value of approximately
$470 million
at the time of the settlement, and other terms, including termination of certain derivative contracts. The cash payments consist of
$850 million
paid on
April 14, 2011
,
$57 million
paid on
June 30, 2011
,
$57 million
paid on
200
September 30, 2011 and the remainder payable in two equal installments at the end of each quarter through
March 31, 2012
. The total cost recognized for the Assured Guaranty Settlement as of
September 30, 2011
was approximately
$1.6 billion
. As a result of this agreement, the Corporation recorded
$4.7 billion
in consumer loans and the related trust debt on its Consolidated Balance Sheet at
September 30, 2011
, due to the establishment of reinsurance contracts at the time of the Assured Guaranty Settlement.
Government-sponsored Enterprise Agreements
On
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation reached agreements with the GSEs, under which the Corporation paid
$2.8 billion
to resolve repurchase claims involving first-lien residential mortgage loans sold directly to the GSEs by entities related to legacy Countrywide (the GSE Agreements). The agreement with FHLMC extinguished all outstanding and potential mortgage repurchase and make-whole claims arising out of any alleged breaches of selling representations and warranties related to loans sold directly by legacy Countrywide to FHLMC through 2008, subject to certain exceptions. The agreement with FNMA substantially resolved the existing pipeline of repurchase claims outstanding as of
September 20, 2010
arising out of alleged breaches of selling representations and warranties related to loans sold directly by legacy Countrywide to FNMA. The GSE Agreements did not cover outstanding and potential mortgage repurchase claims arising out of any alleged breaches of selling representations and warranties related to legacy Bank of America first-lien residential mortgage loans sold directly to the GSEs or other loans sold directly to the GSEs other than described above, loan servicing obligations, other contractual obligations or loans contained in private-label securitizations.

.
These repurchase claims include
$1.7 billion
in demands from investors in the Covered Trusts received in the third quarter of 2010, but otherwise do not include any repurchase claims related to the Covered Trusts. The increase in unresolved claims is primarily attributable to
$10.9 billion
in new repurchase claims submitted by the GSEs for both legacy Countrywide originations not covered by the GSE Agreements and legacy Bank of America originations, and
$711 million
in repurchase claims received from trustees in non-GSE transactions. The high level of new claims was partially offset by the resolution of claims with the GSEs and resolution of certain monoline claims through the Assured Guaranty Settlement.

The number of repurchase claims as a percentage of the number of loans purchased arising from loans sourced from brokers or purchased from third-party sellers is relatively consistent with the number of repurchase claims as a percentage of the number of loans originated by the Corporation or its subsidiaries or legacy companies.
201
Rescission Notices
In addition to repurchase claims, the Corporation receives notices from mortgage insurance companies of claim denial or coverage rescission (collectively MI rescission notices) and the amount of such notices has been increasing. When there is disagreement with the mortgage insurer as to the resolution of a MI rescission notice, meaningful dialogue and negotiation are generally necessary between the parties to reach a conclusion on an individual notice. The level of engagement of the mortgage insurance companies varies and on-going litigation involving some of the mortgage insurance companies limits the ability of the Corporation to engage in constructive dialogue leading to resolution.
FNMA recently issued an announcement requiring servicers to report, effective
October 1, 2011
, all mortgage insurance rescissions, cancellations and claim denials with respect to loans sold to FNMA. The announcement also confirmed FNMA's view of its position that a mortgage insurance company's issuance of a rescission, cancellation notice or claim denial constitutes a breach of the lender's representations and warranties and permits FNMA to require the lender to repurchase the mortgage loan or promptly remit a make-whole payment covering FNMA's loss even if the lender is contesting the mortgage insurer's rescission cancellation or claim denial. The announcement also included a ban on bulk settlements with mortgage insurers that provide for loss sharing in lieu of rescission. Through
June 30, 2012
, lenders have 90 days to appeal FNMA's repurchase request and 30 days (or such other time frame specified by FNMA) to appeal after that date. To be successful in its appeal, a lender must provide documentation confirming reinstatement or continuation of coverage according to the FNMA announcement. This announcement could result in more repurchase requests from FNMA than the assumptions in the Corporation's estimated liability contemplate. The Corporation also expects that in many cases (particularly in the context of litigation), it will not be able to resolve rescissions, cancellations or claim denials with the mortgage insurance companies before the expiration of the appeal period allowed by FNMA. The Corporation has informed FNMA that it does not believe that the new policy is valid under the relevant contracts, and that it does not intend to repurchase loans under the terms set forth in the new policy. Accordingly, the Corporation's pipeline of unresolved repurchase claims may increase and, if it is required to abide by the terms of the new policy, the Corporation's representations and warranties liability may increase.
Cash Payments
As presented in the table below, during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation paid
$2.2 billion
and
$4.4 billion
to resolve
$2.6 billion
and
$5.2 billion
of repurchase claims through repurchase or reimbursement to the investor or securitization trust for losses they incurred, resulting in a loss on the related loans at the time of repurchase or reimbursement of
$1.6 billion
and
$3.0 billion
. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
, the Corporation paid
$920 million
and
$2.8 billion
to resolve
$1.1 billion
and
$3.2 billion
of repurchase claims through repurchase or reimbursement to the investor or securitization trust for losses they incurred, resulting in a loss on the related loans at the time of repurchase or reimbursement of
$524 million
and
$1.7 billion
. Cash paid for loan repurchases includes the unpaid principal balance of the loan plus past due interest. The amount of loss for loan repurchases is reduced by the fair value of the underlying loan collateral. The repurchase of loans and indemnification payments related to first-lien and home equity repurchase claims generally resulted from material breaches of representations and warranties related to the loans’ material compliance with the applicable underwriting standards, including borrower misrepresentation, credit exceptions without sufficient compensating factors and non-compliance with underwriting procedures. The actual representations and warranties made in a sales transaction and the resulting repurchase and indemnification activity can vary by transaction or investor. A direct relationship between the type of defect that causes the breach of representations and warranties and the severity of the realized loss has not been observed. Transactions to repurchase or indemnification payments related to first-lien residential mortgages primarily involved the GSEs while transactions to repurchase or indemnification payments for home equity loans primarily involved the monoline insurers. In addition to the amounts discussed above, the Corporation paid
$964 million
during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
to Assured Guaranty as part of the Assured Guaranty Settlement.

The liability for representations and warranties is established when those obligations are both probable and reasonably estimable. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the provision for representations and warranties and corporate guarantees was
$278 million
and
$15.3 billion
compared to
$872 million
and
$2.6 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
. Of the
$15.3 billion
provision recorded in the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
,
$8.6 billion
was attributable to the BNY Mellon Settlement. In addition, the BNY Mellon Settlement led to the determination that the Corporation has sufficient experience to record a liability related to its exposure on certain other private-label securitizations. This determination combined with higher estimated GSE repurchase rates in the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, were the primary drivers of the balance of the provision in the amount of
$6.7 billion
. GSE repurchase rates increased driven by higher than expected claims during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, including claims on loans that
203
defaulted more than 18 months prior to the repurchase request and on loans where the borrower has made a significant number of payments (e.g., at least
25
payments), in each case in numbers that were not expected based on historical claims. The provision for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was related primarily to the GSEs and was based upon results of the Corporation's ongoing evaluation of the GSE behavior, which is continually evolving.
|
Estimated Range of Possible Loss
|
Government-sponsored Enterprises
The Corporation’s estimated provision and liability for obligations under representations and warranties given to the GSEs considers, among other things, and is necessarily dependent on and limited by, its historical claims experience with the GSEs and reflects current developments, including the GSEs' current interpretations of the GSE Agreements and recent GSE behavior, projections of future defaults, as well as certain other assumptions regarding economic conditions, home prices and other factors. The Corporation's estimate of the liability for these obligations has been accounted for in the recorded liability for representations and warranties for these loans. The behavior of the GSEs is continually evolving and impacting the Corporation's estimated repurchase rates and liability. Notably, in recent periods, the Corporation has been experiencing elevated levels of new claims, including claims on loans on which borrowers have made a significant number of payments (e.g., at least
25
payments) or on loans on which had defaulted more than
18
months prior to the repurchase request, in each case in numbers that were not expected based on historical experience, and the criteria by which the GSEs are ultimately willing to resolve claims have changed in ways that are unfavorable to the Corporation. In addition, the recent FNMA announcement regarding mortgage insurance rescissions, cancellations and claim denials, including a ban on bulk settlements with mortgage insurers that provide for loss sharing in lieu of rescission, could result in increased repurchase requests from FNMA that exceed the repurchase requests contemplated by the Corporation's estimated liability. Accordingly, future provisions associated with obligations under representations and warranties made to the GSEs may be materially impacted if actual results are different from the Corporation's assumptions regarding projected future defaults, estimated home prices and other economic factors, including the behavior of the GSEs and estimated repurchase rates. Repurchase requests and resolution processes with the GSEs have become increasingly inconsistent with the Corporation's interpretation of its contractual obligations.
As the GSEs' behavior is continually evolving, the Corporation is not able to anticipate changes in the behavior of the GSEs from the Corporation's past experiences. Therefore, it is not possible to reasonably estimate a possible loss or range of possible loss with respect to any such potential impact in excess of current accruals on future GSE provisions.
Counterparties other than Government-sponsored Enterprises
The population of private-label securitizations included in the BNY Mellon Settlement encompasses almost all legacy Countrywide first-lien private-label securitizations including loans originated principally in the
2004
through
2008
vintage. For the remainder of the population of private-label securitizations, the Corporation believes it is probable that other claimants may come forward with claims that meet the requirements of the terms of the securitizations. The Corporation has seen an increased trend in requests for loan files from private-label securitization trustees and an increase in repurchase claims from private-label securitization trustees that meet the required standards. The Corporation believes that the provisions recorded in connection with the BNY Mellon Settlement and the additional non-GSE representations and warranties provisions recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 have provided for a substantial portion of the Corporation's non-GSE representations and warranties exposures. However, it is reasonably possible that future representations and warranties losses may occur in excess of the amounts recorded for these exposures. In addition, as discussed below, the Corporation has not recorded any representations and warranties liability for certain potential monoline exposures and certain potential whole loan and other private-label securitization exposures. The Corporation currently estimates that the range of possible loss related to non-GSE representations and warranties exposure as of
September 30, 2011
, could be up to
$5 billion
over existing accruals. This estimated range of possible loss for non-GSE representations and warranties does not represent a probable loss, is based on currently available information, significant judgment and a number of assumptions, including those set forth below, that are subject to change.
The methodology used to estimate the non-GSE representations and warranties liability and the corresponding range of possible loss considers a variety of factors including the Corporation's experience related to actual defaults, projected future defaults, historical loss experience, estimated home prices and other economic conditions. Among the factors that impact the non-GSE representations and warranties liability and the corresponding estimated range of possible loss are: (1) contractual loss causation requirements, (2) the representations and warranties provided, and (3) the requirement to meet certain presentation thresholds. The first factor is based on the Corporation's belief that a non-GSE contractual liability to repurchase a loan generally arises only if the counterparties prove there is a breach of representations and warranties that materially and adversely affects the interest of the investor or all investors, or the monoline insurer (as applicable), in a securitization trust and, accordingly, the Corporation believes that the repurchase claimants must prove that the alleged representations and warranties breach was the cause of the loss. The second factor is related to the fact that non-GSE securitizations include different types of representations and warranties than those provided to the GSEs. The Corporation believes the non-GSE securitizations' representations and warranties are less rigorous and actionable than the explicit provisions of comparable
204
agreements with the GSEs
without regard to any variations that may have arisen as a result of dealings with the GSEs. The third factor is related to the fact that certain presentation thresholds need to be met in order for any repurchase claim to be asserted under the non-GSE agreements. A securitization trustee may investigate or demand repurchase on its own action, and most agreements contain a threshold, for example
25 percent
of the voting rights per trust, that allows investors to declare a servicing event of default under certain circumstances or to request certain action, such as requesting loan files, that the trustee may choose to accept and follow, exempt from liability, provided the trustee is acting in good faith. If there is an uncured servicing event of default and the trustee fails to bring suit during a
60
-day period, then, under most agreements, investors may file suit. In addition to this, most agreements also allow investors to direct the securitization trustee to investigate loan files or demand the repurchase of loans if security holders hold a specified percentage, for example,
25 percent
, of the voting rights of each tranche of the outstanding securities. Although the Corporation continues to believe that presentation thresholds are a factor in the determination of probable loss, given the BNY Mellon Settlement, the upper end of the estimated range of possible loss assumes that the presentation threshold can be met for all of the non-GSE securitization transactions.
In addition, in the case of private-label securitizations, the methodology used to estimate the non-GSE representations and warranties liability and the corresponding range of possible loss considers the implied repurchase experience based on the BNY Mellon Settlement and assumes that the conditions to the BNY Mellon Settlement are satisfied. Since the non-GSE transactions that were included in the BNY Mellon Settlement differ from those that were not included in the BNY Mellon Settlement, the Corporation adjusted the experience implied in the settlement in order to determine the estimated non-GSE representations and warranties liability and the corresponding range of possible loss. The judgmental adjustments made include consideration of the differences in the mix of products in the securitizations, loan originator, likelihood of claims differences, the differences in the number of payments that the borrower has made prior to default and the sponsor of the securitization.
Future provisions and/or ranges of possible loss for non-GSE representations and warranties may be significantly impacted if actual results are different from the Corporation’s assumptions in its predictive models, including, without limitation, those regarding the ultimate resolution of the BNY Mellon Settlement, estimated repurchase rates, economic conditions, home prices, consumer and counterparty behavior, and a variety of judgmental factors. Adverse developments with respect to one or more of the assumptions underlying the liability for representations and warranties and the corresponding estimated range of possible loss could result in significant increases to future provisions and/or the estimated range of loss. For example, if courts were to disagree with the Corporation’s interpretation that the underlying agreements require a claimant to prove that the representations and warranties breach was the cause of the loss, it could significantly impact this estimated range of possible loss.

Additionally, if recent court rulings related to monoline litigation, including one related to the Corporation, that have allowed sampling of loan files instead of a loan-by-loan review to determine if a representations and warranties breach has occurred are followed generally by the courts, private-label securitization investors may view litigation as a more attractive alternative as compared to a loan-by-loan review. Finally, although the Corporation believes that the representations and warranties typically given in non-GSE transactions are less rigorous and actionable than those given in GSE transactions, the Corporation does not have significant loan-level experience to measure the impact of these differences on the probability that a loan will be repurchased.
The liability for obligations under representations and warranties with respect to GSE and non-GSE exposures and the corresponding estimated range of possible loss for non-GSE representations and warranties exposures does not include any losses related to litigation matters disclosed in
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
, nor do they include any separate foreclosure costs and related costs and assessments or any possible losses related to potential claims for breaches of performance of servicing obligations, potential securities law or fraud claims or potential indemnity or other claims against the Corporation. The Corporation is not able to reasonably estimate the amount of any possible loss with respect to any such servicing, securities law (except to the extent reflected in the aggregate range of possible loss for litigation and regulatory matters disclosed in
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
), fraud or other claims against the Corporation; however, such loss could be material.

Government-sponsored Enterprises Experience
|
The Corporation and its subsidiaries have an established history of working with the GSEs on repurchase claims. However, its repurchase experience with the GSEs continues to evolve. Notably, in recent periods, the Corporation has been experiencing elevated levels of new claims, including claims on loans on which borrowers have made a significant number of payments (e.g., at least
25
payments) or on loans which had defaulted more than
18
months prior to the repurchase date, in each case, in numbers that were not expected based on historical experience. Additionally, the criteria by which the GSEs are ultimately willing to resolve claims have changed in ways that are unfavorable to the Corporation. The Corporation continues to closely monitor these changing behaviors and intends to repurchase loans to the extent required under the contracts and standards that govern its relationship with the GSEs.
205
Generally, the Corporation first becomes aware that a GSE is evaluating a particular loan for repurchase when the Corporation receives a request from a GSE to review the underlying loan file (file request). Upon completing its review, the GSE may submit a repurchase claim to the Corporation. As soon as practicable after receiving a repurchase claim from either of the GSEs, the Corporation evaluates the claim and takes appropriate action. Claim disputes are generally handled through loan-level negotiations with the GSEs and the Corporation seeks to resolve the repurchase claim within
90 to 120
days of the receipt of the claim although tolerances exist for claims that remain open beyond this timeframe. Experience with the GSEs continues to evolve and any disputes are generally related to areas including reasonableness of stated income, occupancy, undisclosed liabilities, and the validity of mortgage insurance claim rescissions or denials in the vintages with the highest default rates. During the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, outstanding GSE claims increased substantially, primarily attributable to elevated levels of new claims submitted on both legacy Countrywide originations not covered by the GSE Agreements and Bank of America originations.
|
Monoline Insurers Experience
|
Unlike the repurchase protocols and experience established with GSEs, experience with most of the monoline insurers has been varied and the protocols and experience with these counterparties has not been as predictable as with the GSEs. The timetable for the loan file request, the repurchase claim, if any, response and resolution vary by monoline. Where a breach of representations and warranties given by the Corporation or subsidiaries or legacy companies is confirmed on a given loan, settlement is generally reached as to that loan within
60 to 90
days.
Properly presented repurchase claims for the monolines are generally reviewed on a loan-by-loan basis. As part of an ongoing claims process, if the Corporation does not believe a claim is valid, it will deny the claim and generally indicate the reason for the denial to facilitate meaningful dialogue with the counterparty although it is not contractually obligated to do so. When there is disagreement as to the resolution of a claim, meaningful dialogue and negotiation is generally necessary between the parties to reach conclusion on an individual claim. Although the Assured Guaranty Settlement does not cover all securitizations where Assured Guaranty and subsidiaries provided insurance, it covers the transactions that resulted in repurchase requests from this monoline. As a result, the on-going claims process with counterparties with a more consistent repurchase experience is substantially complete.
The remaining monolines have instituted litigation against legacy Countrywide and Bank of America. When claims from these counterparties are denied, the Corporation does not indicate its reason for denial as it is not contractually obligated to do so. In the Corporation’s experience, the monolines have been generally unwilling to withdraw repurchase claims, regardless of whether and what evidence was offered to refute a claim.
The pipeline of unresolved monoline claims where the Corporation believes a valid defect has not been identified which would constitute an actionable breach of representations and warranties decreased during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
as a result of the Assured Guaranty Settlement. Through
September 30, 2011
, approximately
30 percent
of monoline claims that the Corporation initially denied have subsequently been resolved through the Assured Guaranty Settlement,
10 percent
through repurchase or make-whole payments and
one percent
through rescission. When a claim has been denied and there has not been communication with the counterparty for six months, the Corporation views these claims as inactive; however, they remain in the outstanding claims balance until resolution.
A liability for representations and warranties has been established for repurchase claims based on valid identified loan defects and for repurchase claims that are in the process of review based on historical repurchase experience with specific monoline insurers to the extent such experience provides a reasonable basis on which to estimate incurred losses from repurchase activity. In prior periods, a liability was established for Assured Guaranty related to repurchase claims subject to negotiation and unasserted claims to repurchase current and future defaulted loans. The Assured Guaranty Settlement resolved this representations and warranties liability with the liability for the related loss sharing reinsurance arrangement being recorded in other accrued liabilities. With respect to the other monoline insurers, the Corporation has had limited experience in the repurchase process as these monoline insurers have instituted litigation against legacy Countrywide and Bank of America, which limits the Corporation’s ability to enter into constructive dialogue with these monolines to resolve the open claims. For these monolines, in view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of those repurchase claims where a valid defect has not been identified or in predicting future claim requests and the related outcome in the case of unasserted claims to repurchase loans from the securitization trusts in which these monolines have insured all or some of the related bonds, the Corporation cannot reasonably estimate the eventual outcome through the repurchase process. In addition, the timing of the ultimate resolution or the eventual loss through the repurchase process, if any, related to those repurchase claims cannot be reasonably estimated. Thus, with respect to these monolines, a liability for representations and warranties has not been established related to repurchase claims where a valid defect has not been identified, or in the case of any unasserted claims to repurchase loans from the securitization trusts in which such monolines have insured all or some of the related bonds. For additional information related to the monolines, see
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
.
206
Monoline Outstanding Claims
At
September 30, 2011
, for loans originated between
2004
and
2008
, the unpaid principal balance of loans related to unresolved repurchase claims previously received from monolines was
$3.0 billion
, substantially all of which the Corporation has reviewed and declined to repurchase based on an assessment of whether a material breach exists. As noted above, a portion of the repurchase claims that are initially denied are ultimately resolved through bulk settlement, repurchase or make-whole payments, after additional dialogue and negotiation with the monoline insurer. At
September 30, 2011
, the unpaid principal balance of loans in these vintages for which the monolines had requested loan files for review but for which no repurchase claim had been received was
$6.1 billion
, excluding loans that had been paid in full and file requests for loans included in the trusts settled with Assured Guaranty. There will likely be additional requests for loan files in the future leading to repurchase claims. Such claims may relate to loans that are currently in securitization trusts or loans that have defaulted and are no longer included in the unpaid principal balance of the loans in the trusts. However, it is unlikely that a repurchase claim will be received for every loan in a securitization or every file requested or that a valid defect exists for every loan repurchase claim. In addition, amounts paid on repurchase claims from a monoline are paid to the securitization trust and may be used by the securitization trust to repay any outstanding monoline advances or reduce future advances from the monolines. To the extent that a monoline has not advanced funds or does not anticipate that it will be required to advance funds to the securitization trust, the likelihood of receiving a repurchase claim from a monoline may be reduced as the monoline would receive limited or no benefit from the payment of repurchase claims. Moreover, some monolines are not currently performing their obligations under the financial guaranty policies they issued which may, in certain circumstances, impact their ability to present repurchase claims, although in those circumstances, investors may be able to bring claims if contractual thresholds are met.
|
Whole Loan Sales and Private-label Securitizations Experience
|
The majority of the repurchase claims that the Corporation has received outside of the GSEs and monolines are from third-party whole-loan investors. In connection with these transactions, the Corporation provided representations and warranties and the whole-loan investors may retain those rights even when the loans were aggregated with other collateral into private-label securitizations sponsored by the whole-loan investors. Properly presented repurchase claims for these whole loans are reviewed on a loan-by-loan basis. If, after the Corporation’s review, it does not believe a claim is valid, it will deny the claim and generally indicate a reason for the denial. When the counterparty agrees with the Corporation’s denial of the claim, the counterparty may rescind the claim. When there is disagreement as to the resolution of the claim, meaningful dialogue and negotiation between the parties is generally necessary to reach conclusion on an individual claim. Generally, a whole loan sale claimant is engaged in the repurchase process and the Corporation and the claimant reach resolution, either through loan-by-loan negotiation or at times, through a bulk settlement. Through
September 30, 2011
,
16 percent
of the whole-loan claims that the Corporation initially denied have subsequently been resolved through repurchase or make-whole payments and
48 percent
have been resolved through rescission or repayment in full by the borrower. Although the timeline for resolution varies, once an actionable breach is identified on a given loan, settlement is generally reached as to that loan within
60 to 90
days. When a claim has been denied and the Corporation does not have communication with the counterparty for six months, the Corporation views these claims as inactive; however, they remain in the outstanding claims balance until resolution.
In private-label securitizations certain presentation thresholds need to be met in order for any repurchase claim to be asserted by investors. In 2011, there has been an increase in repurchase claims from private-label securitization trustees that meet the required standards. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation has received
$325 million
and
$711 million
of such repurchase claims. In addition, there has been an increase in requests for loan files from private-label securitization trustees, and the Corporate believes it is likely that these requests will lead to an increase in repurchase claims from private-label securitization trustees that have met the required standards. The representations and warranties, as governed by the private-label securitization agreements, generally require that counterparties have the ability to both assert a claim and actually prove that a loan has an actionable defect under the applicable contracts. While the Corporation believes the agreements for private-label securitizations generally contain less rigorous representations and warranties and place higher burdens on investors seeking repurchases than the express provisions of comparable agreements with the GSEs without regard to any variations that may have arisen as a result of dealings with the GSEs, the agreements generally include a representation that underwriting practices were prudent and customary.
During the
third quarter of 2010
, the Corporation received claim demands totaling
$1.7 billion
from private-label securitization investors in the Covered Trusts. Non-GSE investors generally do not have the contractual right to demand repurchase of the loans directly or the right to access loan files. The inclusion of the
$1.7 billion
in outstanding claims, as reflected in the table on page
201
, does not mean that the Corporation believes these claims have satisfied the contractual thresholds required for the private-label securitization investors to direct the securitization trustee to take action or that these claims are otherwise procedurally or substantively valid. One of these claimants has filed litigation against the Corporation relating to certain of these demands; the claims in this litigation would be extinguished if there is final court approval of the BNY Mellon Settlement.

During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation completed its annual goodwill impairment test as of
June 30, 2011
for all applicable reporting units. Based on the results of step one of the annual goodwill impairment test, the Corporation determined that step two was not required for any of the reporting units as their fair value exceeded their carrying value indicating there was no impairment.
On August 15, 2011, the Corporation announced that it has agreed to sell its Canadian consumer card business and that it will exit its European consumer card businesses. In light of these actions, the results of its international consumer card businesses were moved to
All Other.
Included in the movement of assets was goodwill of approximately
$1.9 billion
that was allocated from the
Card Services
reporting unit to
All Other
. This was partially offset by a reduction in goodwill related to the sale of the Canadian consumer card business which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2011. The allocation of goodwill was based on the relative fair values of the respective businesses within
Card Services
and the international consumer card businesses.
As discussed in
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
, the Corporation adopted new accounting guidance issued in September 2011 on testing goodwill for impairment for the goodwill impairment test for
Card Services
and the European consumer card businesses completed during the three months ended September 30, 2011. The Corporation assessed the qualitative factors surrounding the goodwill remaining in
Card Services
and the goodwill allocated to
All Other
for the European consumer card businesses and concluded that it was not more-likely-than-not that the fair values of the reporting units are less than the carrying values. As a result, step one of the goodwill impairment test was not considered necessary.

NOTE 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
|
In the normal course of business, the Corporation enters into a number of off-balance sheet commitments. These commitments expose the Corporation to varying degrees of credit and market risk and are subject to the same credit and market risk limitation reviews as those instruments recorded on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. For additional information on commitments and contingencies, see
Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
|
Credit Extension Commitments
|
The Corporation enters into commitments to extend credit such as loan commitments, standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit to meet the financing needs of its customers. The table below includes the notional amount of unfunded legally binding lending commitments net of amounts distributed (e.g., syndicated) to other financial institutions of
$25.8 billion
and
$23.3 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. At
September 30, 2011
, the carrying amount of these commitments, excluding commitments accounted for under the fair value option, was
$818 million
, including deferred revenue of
$28 million
and a reserve for unfunded lending commitments of
$790 million
. At
December 31, 2010
, the comparable amounts were
$1.2 billion
,
$29 million
and
$1.2 billion
, respectively. The carrying amount of these commitments is classified in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The table below also includes the notional amount of commitments of
$27.7 billion
and
$27.3 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
that are accounted for under the fair value option. However, the table below excludes fair value adjustments of
$1.3 billion
and
$866 million
on these commitments, which are classified in accrued expenses and other liabilities. For information regarding the Corporation’s loan commitments accounted for under the fair value option, see

Other Commitments
|
Global Principal Investments and Other Equity Investments
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation had unfunded equity investment commitments of approximately
$977 million
and
$1.5 billion
. In light of proposed Basel regulatory capital changes related to unfunded commitments, the Corporation has actively reduced these commitments in a series of transactions involving its private equity fund investments. In 2010, the Corporation completed the sale of its exposure to certain private equity funds. For more information on these transactions, see
Note 5 – Securities
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
Other Commitments
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation had commitments to purchase loans (e.g., residential mortgage and commercial real estate) of
$3.4 billion
and
$2.6 billion
, which upon settlement will be included in loans or LHFS.
At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation had commitments to enter into forward-dated resale and securities borrowing agreements of
$84.3 billion
and
$39.4 billion
. In addition, the Corporation had commitments to enter into forward-dated repurchase and securities lending agreements of
$52.6 billion
and
$33.5 billion
. All of these commitments expire within the next 12 months.
The Corporation is a party to operating leases for certain of its premises and equipment. Commitments under these leases are approximately
$793 million
,
$3.0 billion
,
$2.5 billion
,
$1.9 billion
and
$1.5 billion
for the remainder of
2011
and the years through
2015
, respectively, and
$7.2 billion
in the aggregate for all years
thereafter
.
The Corporation has entered into agreements with providers of market data, communications, systems consulting and other office-related services. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the minimum fee commitments over the remaining terms of these agreements totaled
$1.9 billion
and
$2.1 billion
.

Bank-owned Life Insurance Book Value Protection
The Corporation sells products that offer book value protection to insurance carriers who offer group life insurance policies to corporations, primarily banks. The book value protection is provided on portfolios of intermediate investment-grade fixed-income securities and is intended to cover any shortfall in the event that policyholders surrender their policies and market value is below book value. To manage its exposure, the Corporation imposes significant restrictions on surrenders and the manner in which the portfolio is liquidated and the funds are accessed. In addition, investment parameters of the underlying portfolio are restricted. These constraints, combined with structural protections, including a cap on the amount of risk assumed on each policy, are designed to provide adequate buffers and guard against payments even under extreme stress scenarios. These guarantees are recorded as derivatives and carried at fair value in the trading portfolio. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the notional amount of these guarantees totaled
$15.9 billion
and
$15.8 billion
and the Corporation’s maximum exposure related to these guarantees totaled
$5.1 billion
and
$5.0 billion
with estimated maturity dates between 2030 and 2040. As of
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation had not made a payment under these products. The possibility of surrender for a small percentage of the total notional amount of these guarantees exists. The fair value of the guarantees reflects the probability of surrender as well as the multiple structural protection features in the contracts.
Employee Retirement Protection
The Corporation sells products that offer book value protection primarily to plan sponsors of Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) governed pension plans, such as 401(k) plans and 457 plans. The book value protection is provided on portfolios of intermediate/short-term investment-grade fixed-income securities and is intended to cover any shortfall in the event that plan participants continue to withdraw funds after all securities have been liquidated and there is remaining book value. The Corporation retains the option to exit the contract at any time. If the Corporation exercises its option, the purchaser can require the Corporation to purchase high-quality fixed-income securities, typically government or government-backed agency securities, with the proceeds of the liquidated assets to assure the return of principal. To manage its exposure, the Corporation imposes significant restrictions and constraints on the timing of the withdrawals, the manner in which the portfolio is liquidated and the funds are accessed, and the investment parameters of the underlying
210
portfolio. These constraints, combined with structural protections, are designed to provide adequate buffers and guard against payments even under extreme stress scenarios. These guarantees are recorded as derivatives and carried at fair value in the trading portfolio. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the notional amount of these guarantees totaled
$30.7 billion
and
$33.8 billion
with estimated maturity dates up to 2014 if the exit option is exercised on all deals. As of
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation had not made a payment under these products.
Merchant Services
During 2009, the Corporation contributed its merchant processing business to a joint venture in exchange for a
46.5 percent
ownership interest in the joint venture. During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the joint venture purchased the interest held by one of the three initial investors bringing the Corporation’s ownership interest up to
49 percent
. For additional information on the joint venture agreement, see
Note 5 – Securities
.
In accordance with credit and debit card association rules, the Corporation sponsors merchant processing servicers that process credit and debit card transactions on behalf of various merchants. In connection with these services, a liability may arise in the event of a billing dispute between the merchant and a cardholder that is ultimately resolved in the cardholder’s favor and the merchant defaults on its obligation to reimburse the cardholder. A cardholder, through its issuing bank, generally has until the later of up to six months after the date a transaction is processed or the delivery of the product or service to present a chargeback to the merchant processor. The sponsored entities are primarily liable for any losses on covered transactions. However, if the sponsored entities fail to meet their obligation to reimburse the cardholder for disputed transactions, then the Corporation, as the sponsor, could be held liable for the disputed amount. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the sponsored entities processed and settled
$128.2 billion
and
$323.1 billion
of sponsored transactions and recorded losses of
$2 million
and
$8 million
. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
, the sponsored entities processed and settled
$84.0 billion
and
$245.9 billion
of sponsored transactions and recorded losses of
$5 million
and
$13 million
. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation held as collateral
$242 million
and
$25 million
of merchant escrow deposits which may be used to offset amounts due from the individual merchants.
The Corporation believes that the maximum potential exposure is not representative of the actual potential loss exposure. The Corporation believes the maximum potential exposure for chargebacks would not exceed the total amount of merchant transactions processed through Visa, MasterCard and Discover for the last six months, which represents the claim period for the cardholder, plus any outstanding delayed-delivery transactions. As of
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the maximum potential exposure for sponsored transactions totaled approximately
$204.0 billion
and
$139.5 billion
. The Corporation does not expect to make material payments in connection with these guarantees.
Other Derivative Contracts
The Corporation funds selected assets, including securities issued by CDOs and CLOs, through derivative contracts, typically total return swaps, with third parties and SPEs that are not consolidated on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the total notional amount of these derivative contracts was approximately
$4.5 billion
and
$4.3 billion
with commercial banks and
$1.8 billion
and
$1.7 billion
with SPEs. The underlying securities are senior securities and substantially all of the Corporation’s exposures are insured. Accordingly, the Corporation’s exposure to loss consists principally of counterparty risk to the insurers. In certain circumstances, generally as a result of ratings downgrades, the Corporation may be required to purchase the underlying assets, which would not result in additional gain or loss to the Corporation as such exposure is already reflected in the fair value of the derivative contracts.
Other Guarantees
The Corporation sells products that guarantee the return of principal to investors at a preset future date. These guarantees cover a broad range of underlying asset classes and are designed to cover the shortfall between the market value of the underlying portfolio and the principal amount on the preset future date. To manage its exposure, the Corporation requires that these guarantees be backed by structural and investment constraints and certain pre-defined triggers that would require the underlying assets or portfolio to be liquidated and invested in zero-coupon bonds that mature at the preset future date. The Corporation is required to fund any shortfall between the proceeds of the liquidated assets and the purchase price of the zero-coupon bonds at the preset future date. These guarantees are recorded as derivatives and carried at fair value in the trading portfolio. At
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the notional amount of these guarantees totaled
$374 million
and
$666 million
. These guarantees have various maturities ranging from two to five years. As of
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, the Corporation had not made a payment under these products and has assessed the probability of payments under these guarantees as remote.
211
The Corporation has entered into additional guarantee agreements and commitments, including lease-end obligation agreements, partial credit guarantees on certain leases, real estate joint venture guarantees, sold risk participation swaps, divested business commitments and sold put options that require gross settlement. The maximum potential future payment under these agreements was approximately
$3.6 billion
and
$3.4 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. The estimated maturity dates of these obligations extend up to 2033. The Corporation has made no material payments under these guarantees.
In addition, the Corporation has guaranteed the payment obligations of certain subsidiaries of Merrill Lynch on certain derivative transactions. The aggregate notional amount of such derivative liabilities was approximately
$3.0 billion
and
$2.1 billion
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
. In the normal course of business, the Corporation periodically guarantees the obligations of its affiliates in a variety of transactions including ISDA-related transactions and non ISDA-related transactions such as commodities trading, repurchase agreements, prime brokerage agreements and other transactions.

Payment Protection Insurance Claims Matter
|
In the U.K., the Corporation sells payment protection insurance (PPI) through its international card services business to credit card customers and has previously sold this insurance to consumer loan customers. PPI covers a consumer’s loan or debt repayment if certain events occur such as loss of job or illness. In response to an elevated level of customer complaints of misleading sales tactics across the industry, heightened media coverage and pressure from consumer advocacy groups, the U.K. Financial Services Authority (FSA) investigated and raised concerns about the way some companies have handled complaints relating to the sale of these insurance policies. In August 2010, the FSA issued a policy statement (the FSA Policy Statement) on the assessment and remediation of PPI claims that is applicable to the Corporation’s U.K. consumer businesses and is intended to address concerns among consumers and regulators regarding the handling of PPI complaints across the industry. The FSA Policy Statement sets standards for the sale of PPI that apply to current and prior sales, and in the event a company does not or did not comply with the standards, it is alleged that the insurance was incorrectly sold, giving the customer rights to remedies. The FSA Policy Statement also requires companies to review their sales practices and to proactively remediate non-complaining customers if evidence of a systematic breach of the newly articulated sales standards is discovered, which could include refunding premiums paid.
In October 2010, the British Bankers’ Association (BBA), on behalf of its members, including the Corporation, challenged the provisions of the FSA Policy Statement and its retroactive application to sales of PPI to U.K. consumers through a judicial review process against the FSA and the U.K. Financial Ombudsman Service. On April 20, 2011, the U.K. court issued a judgment upholding the FSA Policy Statement as promulgated and dismissing the BBA’s challenge. The BBA did not appeal the decision. Following the conclusion of the judicial review and the subsequent completion of the detailed root cause analysis as required by the FSA Policy Statement, the Corporation reassessed its reserve for PPI claims during 2011 and increased the total reserve to
$769 million
as of
June 30, 2011
compared to
$630 million
at
December 31, 2010
. During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, the reserve decreased by
$152 million
due to payment activity, bringing the total accrued liability balance to
$617 million
at
September 30, 2011
.

Litigation and Regulatory Matters
|
The following supplements the disclosure in
Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
and in
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
of the Corporation’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended
June 30, 2011
and
March 31, 2011
(collectively, the prior commitments and contingencies disclosures).
In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are routinely defendants in or parties to many pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. These actions and proceedings are generally based on alleged violations of consumer protection, securities, environmental, banking, employment, contract and other laws. In some of these actions and proceedings, claims for substantial monetary damages are asserted against the Corporation and its subsidiaries.
In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are also subject to regulatory examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries and investigations. Certain subsidiaries of the Corporation are registered broker/dealers or investment advisors and are subject to regulation by the SEC, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the New York Stock Exchange, the FSA and other domestic, international and state securities regulators. In connection with formal and informal inquiries by those agencies, such subsidiaries receive numerous requests, subpoenas and orders for documents, testimony and information in connection with various aspects of their regulated activities.
212
In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such litigation and regulatory matters, particularly where the claimants seek very large or indeterminate damages or where the matters present novel legal theories or involve a large number of parties, the Corporation generally cannot predict what the eventual outcome of the pending matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will be, or what the eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each pending matter may be.
In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Corporation establishes an accrued liability for litigation and regulatory matters when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. When a loss contingency is not both probable and estimable, the Corporation does not establish an accrued liability. As a litigation or regulatory matter develops, the Corporation, in conjunction with any outside counsel handling the matter, evaluates on an ongoing basis whether such matter presents a loss contingency that is probable and estimable. If, at the time of evaluation, the loss contingency related to a litigation or regulatory matter is not both probable and estimable, the matter will continue to be monitored for further developments that would make such loss contingency both probable and estimable. Once the loss contingency related to a litigation or regulatory matter is deemed to be both probable and estimable, the Corporation will establish an accrued liability with respect to such loss contingency and record a corresponding amount of litigation-related expense. The Corporation continues to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the amount of the accrued liability that has been previously established. Excluding expenses of internal or external legal service providers, litigation-related expense was
$566 million
and
$3.8 billion
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared to
$482 million
and
$1.2 billion
for the
same periods in 2010
.
For a limited number of the matters disclosed in this Note, and in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosures, for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible in future periods, whether in excess of a related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, the Corporation is able to estimate a range of possible loss. In determining whether it is possible to provide an estimate of loss or range of possible loss, the Corporation reviews and evaluates its material litigation and regulatory matters on an ongoing basis, in conjunction with any outside counsel handling the matter, in light of potentially relevant factual and legal developments. These may include information learned through the discovery process, rulings on dispositive motions, settlement discussions, and other rulings by courts, arbitrators or others. In cases in which the Corporation possesses sufficient appropriate information to develop an estimate of loss or range of possible loss, that estimate is aggregated and disclosed below. There may be other disclosed matters for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible but such an estimate may not be possible. For those matters where an estimate is possible, management currently estimates the aggregate range of possible loss is
$0
to
$3.6 billion
in excess of the accrued liability (if any) related to those matters. This estimated range of possible loss is based upon currently available information and is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions, and known and unknown uncertainties. The matters underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. Those matters for which an estimate is not possible are not included within this estimated range. Therefore, this estimated range of possible loss represents what the Corporation believes to be an estimate of possible loss only for certain matters meeting these criteria. It does not represent the Corporation’s maximum loss exposure. Information is provided below, or in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosures, regarding the nature of all of these contingencies and, where specified, the amount of the claim associated with these loss contingencies. Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending matters, including the matters described herein and in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosures, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the Corporation. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in these matters, some of which are beyond the Corporation’s control, and the very large or indeterminate damages sought in some of these matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to the Corporation’s results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.

The Lehman Settlement Agreement resolves the adversary proceeding, provides for the exchange of mutual releases as to all issues that were or could have been raised in the adversary proceeding, and provides for payment by BANA to Lehman entities of approximately
$356 million
of the
$502 million
principal amount that was the subject of the bankruptcy court's December 2010 turnover order (together with a negotiated amount of prejudgment interest). The Lehman Settlement Agreement also allows BANA to retain the balance of the funds to be applied to allowed claims against LBHI under its guarantee of BANA derivative claims.
In addition, on September 28, 2011, certain Merrill Lynch affiliates entered into a settlement agreement with Lehman entities that would among other things allow Merrill Lynch derivatives and related guaranty claims against Lehman entities in the amount of

Mortgage-backed Securities Litigation
The Corporation and its affiliates, Countrywide entities and their affiliates, and Merrill Lynch entities and their affiliates have been named as defendants in several cases relating to their various roles as issuer, originator, seller, depositor, sponsor, underwriter and/or controlling entity in MBS offerings, pursuant to which the MBS investors were entitled to a portion of the cash flow from the underlying pools of mortgages. These cases generally include purported class action suits and actions by individual MBS purchasers. Although the allegations vary by lawsuit, these cases generally allege that the registration statements, prospectuses and prospectus supplements for securities issued by securitization trusts contained material misrepresentations and omissions, in violation of Sections 11, 12 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 10(b) and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and/or state securities laws and other state statutory and common laws.
These cases generally involve allegations of false and misleading statements regarding: (i) the process by which the properties that served as collateral for the mortgage loans underlying the MBS were appraised; (ii) the percentage of equity that mortgage borrowers had in their homes; (iii) the borrowers' ability to repay their mortgage loans; (iv) the underwriting practices by which those mortgage loans were originated; (v) the ratings given to the different tranches of MBS by rating agencies; and (vi) the validity of each issuing trust's title to the mortgage loans comprising the pool for that securitization (collectively, MBS Claims). Plaintiffs in these cases generally seek unspecified compensatory damages, unspecified costs and legal fees and, in some instances, seek rescission. A number of other entities (including the National Credit Union Administration) have threatened legal actions against the Corporation and its affiliates concerning MBS offerings.
On August 15, 2011, the Judicial Panel on Multi-District Litigation ordered multiple federal court cases involving Countrywide MBS, including, among others, the
Allstate, Dexia
and
Western & Southern
matters, consolidated for pretrial purposes in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, in a multi-district litigation entitled

AIG has named a number of Corporation affiliates, subsidiaries and entities as defendants, including the Corporation, Merrill Lynch and Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. (CHL). AIG's complaint asserts certain MBS Claims under federal securities and common law pertaining to
349
MBS offerings in which it alleges that it purchased securities between 2005 and 2007. AIG seeks rescission of its purchases or a rescissory measure of damages or, in the alternative, compensatory damages of not less than
$10 billion
; punitive damages; and other unspecified relief. Defendants removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York which has denied AIG's motion to remand the case to state court.
Allstate Litigation
On June 14, 2011, the case was transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California and was subsequently included as part of the Countrywide RMBS MDL.

under the federal securities laws as well as the common law fraud, aiding and abetting fraud, and negligent misrepresentation claims with respect to all but one of the purchases prior to December 27, 2005. The court also dismissed, without prejudice, plaintiffs' claims for successor liability against the Corporation, and the remaining claims for negligent misrepresentation and aiding and abetting fraud, and granted plaintiffs leave to amend the complaint.

. The action was removed to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. ABP's original complaint asserted certain MBS Claims relating to 13 offerings of Merrill Lynch-related MBS. On October 12, 2011, ABP filed an amended complaint regarding the same offerings and adding additional federal securities law and state law claims. ABP seeks unspecified compensatory damages, interest and legal fees, or alternatively rescission.
Repurchase Litigation
The Corporation and the defendant sellers have filed a joint motion to dismiss the amended complaint in
Walnut Place LLC, et al. v. Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. et al.
The amended complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendant sellers breached representations and warranties regarding residential mortgage loans sold into two securitization trusts, seeks a court order requiring the sellers to repurchase the mortgage loans at issue, or alternatively, damages for breach of contract, and alleges that the Corporation is a successor in liability to CHL.

., in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, against the Corporation and the other defendant sellers, and The Bank of New York Mellon, acting in its capacity as trustee. This action makes allegations similar to those in the prior

In August 2011, May 2011 and January 2011, the Board of Directors (the Board) declared the third quarter, second quarter and first quarter cash dividends of $
0.01
per common share which were paid on September 23, 2011, June 24, 2011 and March 25, 2011 to common shareholders of record on September 2, 2011, June 3, 2011 and March 4, 2011, respectively.
There is no existing Board authorized share repurchase program. In connection with employee stock plans, the Corporation issued approximately
49 million
shares and repurchased approximately
28 million
shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations during the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
. At
September 30, 2011
, the Corporation had reserved
2.2 billion
unissued shares of common stock
217
for future issuances under employee stock plans, common stock warrants, convertible notes and preferred stock. On
September 1, 2011
, the Corporation issued to Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (Berkshire) a warrant to purchase
700 million
shares of the Corporation's common stock (the Warrant). The Warrant is exercisable at the holder's option at any time, in whole or in part until
September 1, 2021
, at an exercise price of
$7.142857
per share of the common stock which may be settled in cash or by exchanging all or a portion of the
6%
Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series T (the Series T Preferred Stock). For additional information on the Berkshire transaction, see Preferred Stock below.
During the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, the Corporation issued approximately
197 million
RSUs to certain employees under the Key Associate Stock Plan and the Merrill Lynch Employee Stock Compensation Plan. The majority of these awards generally vest in three equal annual installments beginning one year from the grant date. Certain awards are earned based on the achievement of specified performance criteria. Vested RSUs may be settled in cash or in shares of common stock depending on the terms of the applicable award. In 2011, approximately
130 million
of these RSUs were authorized to be settled in shares of common stock. Certain awards contain clawback provisions which permit the Corporation to cancel all or a portion of the award under specified circumstances. The compensation cost for cash-settled awards and awards subject to certain clawback provisions is accrued over the vesting period and adjusted to fair value based upon changes in the share price of the Corporation's common stock. The compensation cost for the remaining awards is fixed and based on the share price of the Corporation's common stock on the date of grant, or the date upon which settlement in common stock has been authorized. The Corporation hedges a portion of its exposure to variability in the expected cash flows for certain unvested awards using a combination of economic and cash flow hedges as described in
Note 4 – Derivatives
.

Preferred Stock
|
During the first, second and third quarters of 2011, the aggregate dividends declared on preferred stock were $
310 million
, $
301 million
and
$343 million
, respectively, or a total of
$954 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
.
On
September 1, 2011
, the Corporation closed the sale to Berkshire of
50,000
shares of the Series T Preferred Stock and the Warrant for an aggregate purchase price of
$5.0 billion
in cash. Of the
$5.0 billion
in cash proceeds,
$2.9 billion
was allocated to preferred stock and
$2.1 billion
to the Warrant on a relative fair value basis. The discount on the Series T Preferred Stock is not subject to accretion. The portion of the proceeds allocated to the Warrant was recorded as additional paid-in capital.
The Series T Preferred Stock has a liquidation value of
$100,000
per share and dividends on the Series T Preferred Stock accrue on the liquidation value at a rate per annum of
six percent
but will be paid only when, as and if declared by the Board out of legally available funds. Subject to the approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Series T Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the Corporation at any time at a redemption price of
$105,000
per share plus any accrued, unpaid dividends. The Series T Preferred Stock has no maturity date and ranks senior to the outstanding common stock (and pari passu with the Corporation's other outstanding series of preferred stock) with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions in liquidation. At any time when dividends on the Series T Preferred Stock have not been paid in full, the unpaid amounts will accrue dividends at a rate per annum of
eight percent
and the Corporation will not be permitted to pay dividends or other distributions on, or to repurchase, any outstanding common stock or any of the Corporation's outstanding preferred stock of any series. Following payment in full of accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series T Preferred Stock, the dividend rate remains at
eight percent
per annum.

Due to the net loss for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
, no dilutive potential common shares were included in the calculation of diluted EPS because they would have been antidilutive.

For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
, average options to purchase
213 million
and
219 million
shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of EPS because they were antidilutive under the treasury stock method compared to
265 million
and
273 million
for the same periods in 2010. For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, average warrants to purchase
272 million
shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of EPS because they were antidilutive under the treasury stock method. For both the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
,
67 million
average dilutive potential common shares associated with the
7.25%
Non-cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock, Series L (Series L Preferred Stock) were excluded from the diluted share count because the result would have been antidilutive under the “if-converted” method. For both the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010
,
117 million
average dilutive potential common shares associated with the Series L Preferred Stock and the Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock Series 2 and Series 3 were excluded from the diluted share count because the result would have been antidilutive under the “if-converted” method. For the
three months ended September 30, 2011
,
228 million
average dilutive potential common shares associated with the Series T Preferred Stock were included in the computation of diluted EPS. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2011
,
77 million
average dilutive potential common shares associated with the Series T Preferred Stock were not included in the diluted share count because the result would have been antidilutive under the "if-converted" method. For purposes of computing basic EPS, Common Equivalent Securities were considered to be participating securities prior to February 24, 2010.

NOTE 15 – Pension and Postretirement Plans
|
The Corporation sponsors noncontributory trusteed pension plans that cover substantially all officers and employees, a number of noncontributory nonqualified pension plans, and postretirement health and life plans. Additional information on these plans is presented in
Note 19 – Employee Benefit Plans
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
As a result of the Merrill Lynch acquisition, the Corporation assumed the obligations related to the plans of Merrill Lynch. These plans include a terminated U.S. pension plan, non-U.S. pension plans, nonqualified pension plans and postretirement plans. The non-U.S. pension plans vary based on the country and local practices. In 1988, Merrill Lynch purchased a group annuity contract that guarantees the payment of benefits vested under the terminated U.S. pension plan. The Corporation, under a supplemental agreement, may be responsible for, or benefit from actual experience and investment performance of the annuity assets. The Corporation made no contributions under this agreement in the
nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. Contributions may be required in the future under this agreement.

NOTE 16 – Fair Value Measurements
|
Under applicable accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Corporation determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established under applicable accounting guidance which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs used to measure fair value. For more information regarding the fair value hierarchy and how the Corporation measures fair value, see
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
and
Note 22 – Fair Value Measurements
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. The Corporation accounts for certain corporate loans and loan commitments, LHFS, structured reverse repurchase agreements, long-term deposits and long-term debt under the fair value option. For more information, see
Note 17 – Fair Value Option
.
222
|
Recurring Fair Value
|
Assets and liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, including financial instruments which the Corporation accounts for under the fair value option, are summarized in the following tables.

$1.2 billion
of trading account assets,
$4.3 billion
of loans and leases,
$1.6 billion
of other assets and
$1.2 billion
of long-term debt. Transfers out of Level 3 for trading account assets were primarily driven by increased price observability on certain RMBS, commercial mortgage-backed securities and consumer ABS portfolios. Transfers out of Level 3 for loans and leases were driven by increased observable inputs, primarily liquid comparables, for certain corporate loans accounted for under the fair value option. Transfers out of Level 3 for other assets were the result of an initial public offering of an equity investment. Transfers out of Level 3 for long-term debt were due to increased price observability for inputs used in the pricing of certain structured liabilities.

During the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
, the transfers into Level 3 included
$3.0 billion
of trading account assets,
$3.4 billion
of AFS debt securities,
$1.1 billion
of net derivative contracts and
$1.4 billion
of long-term debt. Transfers into Level 3 for trading account assets were driven by reduced price transparency as a result of lower levels of trading activity for certain municipal auction rate securities and corporate debt securities as well as a change in valuation methodology for certain ABS to a discounted cash flow model. Transfers into Level 3 for AFS debt securities were due to an increase in the number of non-agency RMBS and other taxable securities priced using a discounted cash flow model. Transfers into Level 3 for net derivative contracts were primarily related to a lack of price observability for certain credit default and total return swaps. Transfers into Level 3 for long-term debt were the result of an increase in unobservable inputs used in the pricing of certain structured liabilities.
During the
nine months ended September 30, 2010
, the transfers out of Level 3 were
$3.1 billion
of trading account assets and
$1.4 billion
of long-term debt. Transfers out of Level 3 for trading account assets were driven by increased price verification of certain mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt and non-U.S. government and agency securities and increased price observability of index floaters based on the BMA curve held in corporate securities, trading loans and other. Transfers out of Level 3 for long-term debt were due to increased price observability for inputs used in the pricing of certain structured liabilities.

The following tables summarize gains (losses) due to changes in fair value, including both realized and unrealized gains (losses), recorded in earnings for Level 3 assets and liabilities during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010

NOTE 18 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
|
The fair values of financial instruments have been derived using methodologies described in
Note 22 – Fair Value Measurements
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
. The following disclosures include financial instruments where only a portion of the ending balances at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
was carried at fair value on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Short-term Financial Instruments
The carrying value of short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, time deposits placed, federal funds sold and purchased, resale and certain repurchase agreements, commercial paper and other short-term investments and borrowings approximates the fair value of these instruments. These financial instruments generally expose the Corporation to limited credit risk and have no stated maturities or have short-term maturities and carry interest rates that approximate market. The Corporation elected to account for certain structured reverse repurchase agreements under the fair value option.
Loans
Fair values for loans were generally determined by discounting both principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected using an observable discount rate for similar instruments with adjustments that the Corporation believes a market participant would consider in determining fair value. The Corporation estimates the cash flows expected to be collected using internal credit risk, interest rate and prepayment risk models that incorporate the Corporation’s best estimate of current key assumptions, such as default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds for the life of the loan. The carrying value of loans is presented net of the applicable allowance for loan losses and excludes leases. The Corporation elected to account for certain large corporate loans that exceeded the Corporation’s single name credit risk concentration guidelines under the fair value option.
236
Deposits
The fair value for certain deposits with stated maturities was determined by discounting contractual cash flows using current market rates for instruments with similar maturities. The carrying value of non-U.S. time deposits approximates fair value. For deposits with no stated maturities, the carrying value was considered to approximate fair value and does not take into account the significant value of the cost advantage and stability of the Corporation’s long-term relationships with depositors. The Corporation accounts for certain long-term fixed-rate deposits that are economically hedged with derivatives under the fair value option.
Long-term Debt
The Corporation uses quoted market prices, when available, to estimate fair value for its long-term debt. When quoted market prices are not available, fair value is estimated based on current market interest rates and credit spreads for debt with similar terms and maturities. The Corporation accounts for certain structured liabilities under the fair value option.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values and fair values of certain financial instruments that were not carried at fair value at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
are presented in the table below.

NOTE 19 – Mortgage Servicing Rights
|
The Corporation accounts for consumer MSRs at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income in mortgage banking income (loss). The Corporation economically hedges these MSRs with certain derivatives and securities including MBS and U.S. Treasuries. The securities that economically hedge the MSRs are classified in other assets with changes in the fair value of the securities and the related interest income recorded in mortgage banking income (loss).
The table below presents activity for residential first-lien MSRs for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
. Commercial and residential reverse MSRs, which are carried at the lower of cost or market value and accounted for using the amortization method, totaled
$157 million
and
$278 million
at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
, and are not included in the tables in this Note.

Represents the change in the market value of the MSR asset due to the impact of customer payments received during the period.
|
|
(2)
|
These amounts reflect the changes in modeled MSR fair value largely due to observed changes in interest rates, volatility, spreads and the shape of the forward swap curve.
|
|
(3)
|
These amounts reflect periodic adjustments to the valuation model as well as changes in certain cash flow assumptions such as costs to service and ancillary income per loan.
|
The Corporation uses an option-adjusted spread (OAS) valuation approach to determine the fair value of MSRs which factors in prepayment risk. This approach consists of projecting servicing cash flows under multiple interest rate scenarios and discounting these cash flows using risk-adjusted discount rates. The key economic assumptions used in determining the fair value of MSRs at
September 30, 2011
and
December 31, 2010
are presented below.

The table below presents the sensitivity of the weighted-average lives and fair value of MSRs to changes in modeled assumptions. These sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. As the amounts indicate, changes in fair value based on variations in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of MSRs that continue to be held by the Corporation is calculated without changing any other assumption. In reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another, which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities. The below sensitivities do not reflect any hedge strategies that may be undertaken to mitigate such risk.

NOTE 20 – Business Segment Information
|
The Corporation reports the results of its operations through six business segments:
Deposits, Card Services, Consumer Real Estate Services
,
Global Commercial Banking, Global Banking & Markets
and
Global Wealth & Investment Management
, with the remaining operations recorded in
All Other
. During the
three months ended September 30, 2011
, as a result of the decision to exit the international consumer card businesses, the
Global Card Services
business segment was renamed
Card Services
. The international consumer card business results were moved to
All Other
and prior periods have been reclassified. For more information on each business segment, see
Note 26 – Business Segment Information
to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K
.
|
Basis of Presentation
|
The management accounting and reporting process derives segment and business results by utilizing allocation methodologies for revenue and expense. The net income derived for the businesses is dependent upon revenue and cost allocations using an activity-based costing model, funds transfer pricing, and other methodologies and assumptions management believes are appropriate to reflect the results of the business.
Total revenue, net of interest expense, includes net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis and noninterest income. The adjustment of net interest income to a FTE basis results in a corresponding increase in income tax expense. The segment results also reflect certain revenue and expense methodologies that are utilized to determine net income. The net interest income of the businesses includes the results of a funds transfer pricing process that matches assets and liabilities with similar interest rate sensitivity and maturity characteristics. For presentation purposes, in segments where the total of liabilities and equity exceeds assets, which are generally deposit-taking segments, the Corporation allocates assets to match liabilities. Net interest income of the business segments also includes an allocation of net interest income generated by the Corporation’s ALM activities.
239
The Corporation’s ALM activities include an overall interest rate risk management strategy that incorporates the use of interest rate contracts to manage fluctuations in earnings that are caused by interest rate volatility. The Corporation’s goal is to manage interest rate sensitivity so that movements in interest rates do not significantly adversely affect net interest income. The majority of the Corporation’s ALM activities are allocated to the business segments and fluctuate based on performance. ALM activities include external product pricing decisions including deposit pricing strategies, the effects of the Corporation’s internal funds transfer pricing process and the net effects of other ALM activities.
Certain expenses not directly attributable to a specific business segment are allocated to the segments. The most significant of these expenses include data and item processing costs and certain centralized or shared functions. Data processing costs are allocated to the segments based on equipment usage. Item processing costs are allocated to the segments based on the volume of items processed for each segment. The costs of certain centralized or shared functions are allocated based on methodologies that reflect utilization.
240
The following tables present total revenue, net of interest expense, on a FTE basis and net income (loss) for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
, and total assets at
September 30, 2011
and
2010
for each business segment, as well as
