Recent Developments
Capital Management
On June 24, 2021, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve) announced the results of our 2021 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) capital plan and related supervisory stress tests. Based on our results, we will be subject to a preliminary 2.5 percent stress capital buffer (SCB) beginning October 1, 2021, unchanged from the current level, and our minimum Basel 3 Common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio requirement will also remain unchanged at 9.5 percent.
On July 21, 2021, the Corporation’s Board of Directors (the Board) declared a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.21 per share, an increase of 17 percent compared to the prior
dividend rate, payable on September 24, 2021 to shareholders of record as of September 3, 2021.
For more information on our capital resources and regulatory developments, see Capital Management on page 22.
U.K. Tax Law Change
On June 10, 2021, the U.K. enacted the 2021 Finance Act, which increases the U.K. corporation income tax rate to 25 percent from 19 percent, effective April 1, 2023. As a result, during the second quarter of 2021, the Corporation recorded a write-up of U.K. net deferred tax assets of approximately $2.0 billion with a corresponding positive income tax adjustment. For more information, see Financial Highlights – Income Tax Expense on page 6.
COVID-19 Pandemic
The Corporation has been, and may continue to be, impacted by the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic (the pandemic). During the first half of 2021, the macroeconomic outlook improved in the U.S. and several regions of the world, as COVID-19 cases decreased and vaccinations became more widely available. However, uncertainty still remains about the duration of the pandemic and the timing and strength of the global economic recovery. As the pandemic evolves, we continue to review protocols and processes in place to execute our business continuity plans. In conjunction with our efforts to support clients affected by the pandemic, we have cumulatively originated $35.4 billion in loans under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) with amounts outstanding of $15.7 billion and $21.1 billion at June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021. For more information on PPP loans, see Commercial Portfolio Credit Risk Management on page 35.
Although the macroeconomic and public health outlooks improved in the U.S. and globally during the first half of 2021, the future direct and indirect impact of the pandemic on our businesses, results of operations and financial condition remains uncertain. Should current economic conditions deteriorate or if the pandemic worsens, including as the result of the spread of COVID-19 variants that are more easily communicable or resistant to currently available vaccines, such conditions could have an adverse effect on our businesses and results of operations and could adversely affect our financial condition.
For more information on the pandemic, see Executive Summary – Recent Developments – COVID-19 Pandemic in the MD&A and Item 1A. Risk Factors – Coronavirus Disease of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
LIBOR and Other Benchmark Rates
Following the 2017 announcement by the U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) that it would no longer compel participating banks to submit rates for the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) after 2021, regulators, trade associations and financial industry working groups have identified recommended replacement rates for LIBOR, as well as other Interbank Offered Rates (IBORs), and have published recommended conventions to allow new and existing products to incorporate fallbacks or that reference these alternative reference rates (ARRs). Additionally, as previously disclosed, the FCA announced the dates for the cessation of all LIBOR benchmark settings currently published by the ICE Benchmark Administration. In connection with the transition, in April 2021, the State of New York approved legislation for contracts that are governed by New York law by providing a statutory framework to replace LIBOR with a benchmark rate based on the Secured
3 Bank of America



Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), which is anticipated to help the Corporation reduce legal and economic uncertainty with regard to certain LIBOR-based products and contracts that are governed by New York law and have no fallback provisions or have fallback provisions that are based on LIBOR.
The Corporation continues to execute its enterprise-wide IBOR transition program. As part of this transition program, the Corporation continues to decrease initiation of new U.S. dollar LIBOR-linked commercial loans that mature after June 30, 2023, subject to certain exceptions, and continues to increase the usage of ARRs in its U.S. dollar commercial lending products and contracts. Additionally, the Corporation has ceased initiation of most GBP LIBOR-linked derivatives, subject to certain exceptions, and is prioritizing interdealer trading in SOFR rather than LIBOR for certain U.S. dollar interest rate swaps in accordance with recommendations by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The Corporation continues to update its operational models, systems, processes and internal infrastructure.
While the Corporation continues to work towards meeting the regulatory and industry-wide recommended milestones on cessation of LIBOR, the market and client replacement of IBORs
and adoption of ARRs continue to evolve and, as a result, could impact the ability of market participants and the Corporation to transition activity across or within categories of contracts, products, services and markets. Accordingly, the Corporation continues to monitor a variety of market scenarios as part of its transition efforts, including risks associated with insufficient preparation by individual market participants or the overall market ecosystem, ability of market participants to meet regulatory and industry-wide recommended milestones, development and adoption of SOFR, credit-sensitive and other rates, access and demand by clients and market participants to liquidity in certain products, including LIBOR products, and IBOR continuity. Furthermore, banking regulators in the U.S. and globally have increased regulatory scrutiny and intensified supervisory focus of financial institution LIBOR transition plans, preparations and readiness.
For more information on the expected replacement of LIBOR and other benchmark rates, see Executive Summary – Recent Developments – LIBOR and Other Benchmark Rates in the MD&A and Item 1A. Risk Factors – Other of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Net income was $9.2 billion and $17.3 billion, or $1.03 and $1.90 per diluted share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $3.5 billion and $7.5 billion, or $0.37 and $0.77 per diluted share, for the same periods in 2020. The increase in net income was primarily due to improvement in the provision for credit losses and a positive income tax adjustment related to the revaluation of U.K. net deferred tax assets, partially offset by higher noninterest expense.
Total assets increased $210.3 billion from December 31, 2020 to $3.0 trillion primarily due to the deployment of cash from continued deposit inflows into debt securities, as well as higher trading account assets due to an increase in inventory in Global Markets.
Total liabilities increased $206.1 billion from December 31, 2020 to $2.8 trillion primarily driven by an increase in deposits due to additional government stimulus measures as well as seasonally higher deposits, higher federal funds purchased and securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase due to client activity in Global Markets and an increase in trading account liabilities resulting from higher levels of short positions in Global Markets.
Shareholders’ equity increased $4.2 billion from December 31, 2020 primarily due to net income, partially offset by returns of capital to shareholders through common stock repurchases and common and preferred stock dividends, as well as market value decreases on debt securities and derivatives.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income decreased $615 million to $10.2 billion, and $2.5 billion to $20.4 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. Net interest yield on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis decreased 26 basis points (bps) to 1.61 percent, and 45 bps to 1.64 percent for the same periods. The decrease in net interest income was primarily driven by lower interest rates and loan balances, partially offset by higher balances of debt securities. For more information on net interest yield and the FTE basis, see Supplemental Financial Data on page 7, and for more information on interest rate risk management, see Interest Rate Risk Management for the Banking Book on page 45.

Noninterest income decreased $245 million to $11.2 billion and increased $1.7 billion to $23.9 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. The following highlights the significant changes.
Card income increased $337 million and $500 million primarily driven by increased client activity and merchant services revenue.
Service charges increased $312 million and $201 million primarily due to higher treasury fees and increased client activity in the three-month period.
Investment and brokerage services income increased $701 million and $1.0 billion primarily driven by higher market valuations and assets under management (AUM) flows, partially offset by declines in AUM pricing.
Investment banking fees increased $821 million for the six-month period primarily driven by higher equity issuance fees as well as advisory and debt issuance fees.

Market making and similar activities decreased $661 million for the three-month period primarily driven by higher market-related gains in the prior-year period due to a more robust trading environment for macro products and market recoveries from the end of the first quarter of 2020.
Other income decreased $897 million and $847 million primarily due to a $704 million gain on sales of certain mortgage loans in the prior year as well as higher partnership losses on tax credit investments.
Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses improved $6.7 billion to a benefit of $1.6 billion and $13.4 billion to a benefit of $3.5 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily driven by improvement in the macroeconomic outlook. For more information on the provision for credit losses, see Allowance for Credit Losses on page 41.

Noninterest expense increased $1.6 billion to $15.0 billion, and $3.7 billion to $30.6 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase in the three-month period was primarily due to higher compensation and benefits expense, a $500 million contribution to the Bank of America Foundation and approximately $300 million associated with processing
transactional card claims related to state unemployment benefits. The increase in the six-month period was primarily driven by the same factors as the three-month period as well as elevated net COVID-19 related costs, acceleration of expenses due to incentive compensation award changes, an impairment charge for real estate rationalization, higher revenue-related expenses and higher severance costs.
Income Tax Expense
Table 4 Income Tax Expense
Three Months Ended June 30 Six Months Ended June 30
(Dollars in millions) 2021 2020 2021 2020

Income tax expense (1,182) 266 (66) 787
Effective tax rate (14.7) % 7.0 % (0.4) % 9.4 %
Changes in the effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods a year ago were driven by the impact of our recurring tax preference benefits on higher levels of pretax income and the impact of the U.K. tax law change further discussed in this section. Our recurring tax preference benefits primarily consist of tax credits from investments in affordable housing and renewable energy, aligning with our responsible growth strategy to address global sustainability challenges. Absent these tax credits and the impact of the U.K. tax law change, the effective tax rate would have been approximately 25 percent.

On June 10, 2021, the U.K. enacted the 2021 Finance Act, which increases the U.K. corporation income tax rate to 25 percent from 19 percent. This change is effective April 1, 2023 and unfavorably affects income tax expense on future U.K. earnings. As a result, the Corporation recorded a write-up of U.K. net deferred tax assets of approximately $2.0 billion, with a corresponding positive income tax adjustment. This write-up is a reversal of previously recorded write-downs of net deferred tax assets for prior changes in the U.K. corporation income tax rate.

Supplemental Financial Data
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this Form 10-Q, we present certain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items or otherwise include components that differ from the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are provided as additional useful information to assess our financial condition, results of operations (including period-to-period operating performance) or compliance with prospective regulatory requirements. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended as a substitute for GAAP financial measures and may not be defined or calculated the same way as non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
We view net interest income and related ratios and analyses on an FTE basis, which when presented on a consolidated basis are non-GAAP financial measures. 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 21 percent and a representative state tax rate. Net interest yield, which measures the basis points we earn over the cost of funds, utilizes net interest income on an FTE basis. We believe that presentation of these items on an FTE basis allows for comparison of amounts from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practices.
We may present certain key performance indicators and ratios excluding certain items (e.g., debit valuation adjustment (DVA) gains (losses)) which result in non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that the presentation of measures that exclude these items is useful because such measures provide additional information to assess the underlying operational performance and trends of our businesses and to allow better comparison of period-to-period operating performance.
We also evaluate our business based on certain ratios that utilize tangible equity, a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible equity represents shareholders’ equity or common shareholders’ equity reduced by goodwill and intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights (MSRs)), net of related deferred tax liabilities (“adjusted” shareholders’ equity or common shareholders’ equity). These measures are used to evaluate our use of equity. In addition, profitability, relationship and investment models use both return on average tangible
common shareholders’ equity and return on average tangible shareholders’ equity as key measures to support our overall growth objectives. These ratios are as follows:
Return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity measures our net income applicable to common shareholders as a percentage of adjusted average common shareholders’ equity. The tangible common equity ratio represents adjusted ending common shareholders’ equity divided by total tangible assets.
Return on average tangible shareholders’ equity measures our net income as a percentage of adjusted average total shareholders’ equity. The tangible equity ratio represents adjusted ending shareholders’ equity divided by total tangible assets.
Tangible book value per common share represents adjusted ending common shareholders’ equity divided by ending common shares outstanding.
We believe ratios utilizing tangible equity provide additional useful information because they present measures of those assets that can generate income. Tangible book value per common share provides additional useful information about the level of tangible assets in relation to outstanding shares of common stock.
The aforementioned supplemental data and performance measures are presented in Table 5.
For more information on the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, see Non-GAAP Reconciliations on page 47.
Key Performance Indicators
We present certain key financial and nonfinancial performance indicators (key performance indicators) that management uses when assessing our consolidated and/or segment results. We believe they are useful to investors because they provide additional information about our underlying operational performance and trends. These key performance indicators (KPIs) may not be defined or calculated in the same way as similar KPIs used by other companies. For information on how these metrics are defined, see Key Metrics on page 101.
Our consolidated key performance indicators, which include various equity and credit metrics, are presented in Table 1 on page 4 and Table 5 on page 8.
For information on key segment performance metrics, see Business Segment Operations on page 11.

Business Segment Operations
Segment Description and Basis of Presentation
We report our results of operations through four business segments: Consumer Banking, GWIM, Global Banking and Global Markets , with the remaining operations recorded in All Other . We manage our segments and report their results on an FTE basis. For more information, see Business Segment Operations in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We periodically review capital allocated to our businesses and allocate capital annually during the strategic and capital planning processes. We utilize a methodology that considers the effect of regulatory capital requirements in addition to internal risk-based capital models. Our internal risk-based capital models use a risk-adjusted methodology incorporating each segment’s credit, market, interest rate, business and operational risk components. For more information on the nature of these risks, see Managing Risk on page 22. The capital allocated to the business segments is referred to as
allocated capital. Allocated equity in the reporting units is comprised of allocated capital plus capital for the portion of goodwill and intangibles specifically assigned to the reporting unit. For more information, including the definition of a reporting unit, see Complex Accounting Estimates on page 46 and Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
For more information on our presentation of financial information on an FTE basis, see Supplemental Financial Data on page 7, and for reconciliations to consolidated total revenue, net income and period-end total assets, see Note 17 – Business Segment Information to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Key Performance Indicators
We present certain key financial and nonfinancial performance indicators that management uses when evaluating segment results. We believe they are useful to investors because they provide additional information about our segments’ operational performance, customer trends and business growth.

Consumer Banking, comprised of Deposits and Consumer Lending, offers a diversified range of credit, banking and investment products and services to consumers and small businesses. For more information about Consumer Banking , see Business Segment Operations in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Consumer Banking Results
Three-Month Comparison
Net income for Consumer Banking was $3.0 billion compared to $70 million for the same period in 2020. The increase in net income was primarily due to improvement in the provision for credit losses and higher revenue, partially offset by higher noninterest expense. Noninterest income increased $352 million to $2.2 billion driven by higher card income due to increased client activity and higher service charges, partially offset by lower other income due to the allocation of asset and liability management (ALM) results.
The provision for credit losses improved $3.7 billion to a benefit of $697 million primarily due to a reserve release, as the macroeconomic outlook improved and our credit quality remained strong. Noninterest expense increased $124 million to $4.9 billion primarily driven by the contribution to the Bank of America Foundation, cost of increased client activity and continued investments for business growth, including the merchant services platform, partially offset by lower COVID-19 related costs to support customers and employees.
The return on average allocated capital was 32 percent, up from one percent, driven by higher net income. For more information on capital allocated to the business segments, see Business Segment Operations on page 11.
Six-Month Comparison
Net income for Consumer Banking increased $3.9 billion to $5.7 billion primarily due to improvement in the provision for credit losses, partially offset by lower revenue and higher noninterest expense. Net interest income decreased $960 million to $11.9 billion primarily due to lower interest rates and loan balances, partially offset by the benefit of higher deposit balances. Noninterest income increased $235 million to $4.4 billion driven by higher card income due to increased client activity, partially offset by lower other income due to the allocation of ALM results.
The provision for credit losses improved $6.6 billion to a benefit of $1.3 billion primarily driven by the same factors as described in the three-month discussion. Noninterest expense increased $760 million to $10.0 billion primarily driven by an impairment charge of $240 million for real estate rationalization, the contribution to the Bank of America Foundation, cost of increased client activity and continued investments for business growth, including the merchant services platform, partially offset by lower COVID-19 related costs to support customers and employees.
The return on average allocated capital was 30 percent, up from 10 percent, driven by higher net income.

Deposits
Three-Month Comparison
Net income for Deposits increased $304 million to $1.1 billion primarily driven by higher revenue. Net interest income increased $181 million to $3.5 billion primarily due to the benefit of higher deposit balances. Noninterest income increased $101 million to $865 million primarily driven by higher service charges, partially offset by other income due to the allocation of ALM results.
The provision for credit losses decreased $107 million to $47 million due to an improved macroeconomic outlook.
Average deposits increased $167.6 billion to $972.0 billion primarily due to net inflows of $94.4 billion in checking and time deposits and $72.1 billion in traditional savings and money market savings driven by strong organic growth and additional government stimulus measures.
Six-Month Comparison
Net income for Deposits decreased $677 million to $1.8 billion primarily driven by lower revenue and higher noninterest expense. Net interest income declined $489 million to $6.8 billion primarily due to lower interest rates, partially offset by the
benefit of growth in deposits. Noninterest income decreased $84 million to $1.8 billion primarily driven by lower other income due to the allocation of ALM results, as well as lower service charges due to higher deposit balances.
The provision for credit losses decreased $148 million to $121 million due to an improved macroeconomic outlook. Noninterest expense increased $472 million to $6.1 billion primarily driven by an impairment charge for real estate rationalization, and the cost of increased client activity and continued investments for business growth, partially offset by lower COVID-19 related costs to support customers and employees.
Average deposits increased $177.0 billion to $944.8 billion primarily due to net inflows of $103.4 billion in checking and time deposits and $72.7 billion in traditional savings and money market savings driven by strong organic growth and additional government stimulus measures.

Business Lending revenue increased $49 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 primarily due to higher credit spreads and leasing equity investment income, partially offset by the impact of lower loan balances. Business Lending revenue decreased $358 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to the impact of lower loan balances and interest rates, partially offset by higher credit spreads.
Global Transaction Services revenue decreased $91 million and $451 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 driven by lower interest rates, partially offset by the impact of higher deposit balances.
Average loans and leases decreased 24 percent and 21 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 driven by client paydowns.
Average deposits increased two percent and 13 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily driven
by elevated balances from prior-year inflows on client responses to market volatility and government stimulus measures.
Global Investment Banking
Client teams and product specialists underwrite and distribute debt, equity and loan products, and provide advisory services and tailored risk management solutions. The economics of certain investment banking and underwriting activities are shared primarily between Global Banking and Global Markets under an internal revenue-sharing arrangement. Global Banking originates certain deal-related transactions with our corporate and commercial clients that are executed and distributed by Global Markets .

Global Markets offers sales and trading services and research services to institutional clients across fixed-income, credit, currency, commodity and equity businesses. Global Markets product coverage includes securities and derivative products in both the primary and secondary markets. For more information about Global Markets , see Business Segment Operations in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The following explanations for current period-over-period changes for Global Markets , including those disclosed under Sales and Trading Revenue, are the same for amounts including and excluding net DVA. Amounts excluding net DVA are a non-GAAP financial measure. For more information on net DVA, see Supplemental Financial Data on page 7.
Three-Month Comparison
Net income for Global Markets decreased $987 million to $908 million. Net DVA losses were $34 million compared to losses of $261 million in the prior-year period. Excluding net DVA, net income decreased $1.2 billion to $934 million. These decreases were primarily driven by higher noninterest expense and lower revenue, partially offset by lower provision for credit losses.
Revenue decreased $630 million to $4.7 billion primarily driven by lower sales and trading revenue. Sales and trading revenue decreased $590 million, and excluding net DVA, decreased $817 million. These decreases were driven by lower revenue in Fixed Income, Currencies and Commodities (FICC), partially offset by higher revenue in Equities.
The provision for credit losses decreased $83 million primarily due to an improved macroeconomic outlook.
Noninterest expense increased $787 million to $3.5 billion driven by higher costs associated with processing transactional card claims related to state unemployment benefits and activity-related expenses for sales and trading.
Average total assets increased $134.5 billion to $797.6 billion driven by higher client balances in Global Equities, and higher levels of inventory and loan growth in FICC.
The return on average allocated capital was 10 percent, down from 21 percent, reflecting lower net income and an increase in allocated capital. For more information on capital allocated to the business segments, see Business Segment Operations on page 11.
Six-Month Comparison
Net income for Global Markets decreased $638 million to $3.0 billion. Net DVA losses were $36 million compared to gains of $39 million in the prior-year period. Excluding net DVA, net income decreased $581 million to $3.0 billion. These decreases were primarily driven by higher noninterest expense.
Revenue increased $343 million to $10.9 billion primarily driven by higher investment banking income. Sales and trading revenue decreased $147 million, and excluding net DVA, decreased $72 million driven by a decline in FICC revenue, partially offset by higher revenue in Equities. Noninterest expense increased $1.4 billion to $6.9 billion, primarily driven by the same factors as described in the three-month discussion, as well as an acceleration in expenses from incentive compensation award changes.
The provision for credit losses decreased $195 million primarily due to an improved macroeconomic outlook.
Average total assets increased $72.6 billion to $760.6 billion, primarily due to higher client balances in Global Equities. Period-end total assets increased $157.1 billion since December 31, 2020 to $773.7 billion driven by higher client balances and increased hedging of client activity with stock positions relative to derivatives in Global Equities, and higher levels of inventory and loan growth in FICC.
The return on average allocated capital was 16 percent, down from 20 percent, reflecting lower net income and an increase in allocated capital.

Bank of America 20


Three-Month Comparison
FICC revenue decreased $1.2 billion as the prior year benefited from a robust trading environment for macro products and market recoveries from the end of the first quarter of 2020, whereas markets were more benign in the current-year period and weak for agency mortgages. Equities revenue increased $404 million driven by stronger trading performance and increased client activity in derivatives and Asia.
Six-Month Comparison
FICC revenue decreased $641 million driven by reduced activity in macro products, partially offset by stronger performance in credit and municipal products, and gains in commodities (partially offset by related losses in another segment) from market volatility driven by a weather-related event. Equities revenue increased $569 million driven by stronger trading performance and increased client activity.

All Other primarily consists of ALM activities, liquidating businesses and certain expenses not otherwise allocated to a business segment. ALM activities encompass interest rate and foreign currency risk management activities for which substantially all of the results are allocated to our business segments. For more information on our ALM activities, see Note 17 – Business Segment Information to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Three-Month Comparison
Net income increased $1.6 billion to $1.9 billion primarily driven by an increase in the income tax benefit, partially offset by lower revenue.
Revenue decreased $1.2 billion primarily due to a $704 million gain on sales of certain mortgage loans in the prior-year period and lower market making and similar activities.
The income tax benefit increased $2.8 billion primarily due to the impact of the U.K. tax law change and a higher level of income tax credits associated with increased ESG investment
activities. For more information on the U.K. tax law change, see Financial Highlights on page 4. Both periods included income tax benefit adjustments to eliminate the FTE treatment of certain tax credits recorded in Global Banking .

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
We have contractual obligations to make future payments on debt and lease agreements. Additionally, in the normal course of business, we enter into contractual arrangements whereby we commit to future purchases of products or services from unaffiliated parties. For more information on obligations and commitments, see Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements herein, as well as Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and Note 11 – Long-term Debt and Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Representations and Warranties Obligations
For more information on representations and warranties obligations in connection with the sale of mortgage loans, see Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Managing Risk
Risk is inherent in all our business activities. The seven key types of risk faced by the Corporation are strategic, credit, market, liquidity, compliance, operational and reputational. Sound risk management enables us to serve our customers and deliver for our shareholders. If not managed well, risks can result in financial loss, regulatory sanctions and penalties, and damage to our reputation, each of which may adversely impact our ability to execute our business strategies. We take a comprehensive approach to risk management with a defined Risk Framework and an articulated Risk Appetite Statement, which are approved annually by the Enterprise Risk Committee and the Board.
Our Risk Framework serves as the foundation for the consistent and effective management of risks facing the Corporation. The Risk Framework sets forth clear roles, responsibilities and accountability for the management of risk and provides a blueprint for how the Board, through delegation of authority to committees and executive officers, establishes risk appetite and associated limits for our activities.
Our Risk Appetite Statement is intended to ensure that the Corporation maintains an acceptable risk profile by providing a common framework and a comparable set of measures for senior management and the Board to clearly indicate the level of risk the Corporation is willing to accept. Risk appetite is set at least annually and is aligned with the Corporation’s strategic, capital and financial operating plans. Our line-of-business strategies and risk appetite are also similarly aligned.
For more information about the Corporation s risks related to the pandemic, see Item 1A. Risk Factors – Coronavirus Disease of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These pandemic-related risks are being managed within our Risk Framework and supporting risk management programs.
For more information on our Risk Framework, our risk management activities and the key types of risk faced by the Corporation, see the Managing Risk section in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Capital Management
The Corporation manages its capital position so that its capital is more than adequate to support its business activities and aligns with risk, risk appetite and strategic planning. For more
information, including related regulatory requirements, see Capital Management in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
CCAR and Capital Planning
The Federal Reserve requires BHCs to submit a capital plan and planned capital actions on an annual basis, consistent with the rules governing the CCAR capital plan. We submitted our 2021 CCAR capital plan and related supervisory stress tests in April 2021 and received our results on June 24, 2021. Based on our results, we will be subject to a preliminary 2.5 percent SCB, unchanged from the current level, effective October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022. Our CET1 capital ratio under the Standardized approach must remain above 9.5 percent during this period in order to avoid restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments.
Due to uncertainty resulting from the pandemic, the Federal Reserve imposed various restrictions on share repurchase programs and dividends. In conjunction with its release of 2021 CCAR supervisory stress test results, the Federal Reserve announced those restrictions would end as of July 1, 2021 for large banks, including the Corporation, and large banks would be subject to the normal restrictions under the Federal Reserve's SCB framework.
On April 15, 2021, the Corporation announced that the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $25 billion of common stock over time. The Board also authorized repurchases to offset shares awarded under equity-based compensation plans. During the second quarter of 2021, we repurchased $4.2 billion of common stock, including repurchases to offset shares awarded under equity-based compensation plans during the period.
The timing and amount of common stock repurchases made pursuant to our stock repurchase program are subject to various factors, including the Corporation’s capital position, liquidity, financial performance and alternative uses of capital, stock trading price, regulatory requirements and general market conditions, and may be suspended at any time. Such repurchases may be effected through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, including repurchase plans that satisfy the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act).
Regulatory Capital
As a financial services holding company, we are subject to regulatory capital rules, including Basel 3, issued by U.S. banking regulators. The Corporation's depository institution subsidiaries are also subject to the Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) framework. The Corporation and its primary affiliated banking entity, BANA, are Advanced approaches institutions under Basel 3 and are required to report regulatory risk-based capital ratios and risk-weighted assets (RWA) under both the Standardized and Advanced approaches. The approach that yields the lower ratio is used to assess capital adequacy including under the PCA framework. As of June 30, 2021, the CET1, Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratios for the Corporation were lower under the Standardized approach.
Minimum Capital Requirements
In order to avoid restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments, the Corporation must meet risk-based capital ratio requirements that include a capital conservation buffer or SCB, plus any applicable countercyclical capital buffer and a global systemically important bank (G-SIB) surcharge. The buffers and surcharge must be comprised solely
Bank of America 22


of CET1 capital. The Corporation's CET1 capital ratio must be a minimum of 9.5 percent under both the Standardized and Advanced approaches.
The Corporation is also required to maintain a minimum supplementary leverage ratio (SLR) of 3.0 percent plus a leverage buffer of 2.0 percent in order to avoid certain restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments. Our insured depository institution subsidiaries are required to maintain a minimum 6.0 percent SLR to be
considered well capitalized under the PCA framework.
Capital Composition and Ratios
Table 8 presents Bank of America Corporation’s capital ratios and related information in accordance with Basel 3 Standardized and Advanced approaches as measured at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. For the periods presented herein, the Corporation met the definition of well capitalized under current regulatory requirements.

(1) As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, capital ratios are calculated using the regulatory capital rule that allows a five-year transition period related to the adoption of the current expected credit losses (CECL) accounting standard.
(2) The capital conservation buffer and G-SIB surcharge were 2.5 percent at both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation's SCB of 2.5 percent was applied in place of the capital conservation buffer under the Standardized approach. The countercyclical capital buffer for both periods was zero. The CET1 capital regulatory minimum is the sum of the CET1 capital ratio minimum of 4.5 percent, our G-SIB surcharge of 2.5 percent and our SCB or the capital conservation buffer, as applicable, of 2.5 percent. The SLR regulatory minimum includes a leverage buffer of 2.0 percent.
(3) Total capital under the Advanced approaches differs from the Standardized approach due to differences in the amount permitted in Tier 2 capital related to the qualifying allowance for credit losses.
(4) Reflects total average assets adjusted for certain Tier 1 capital deductions.
(5) Supplementary leverage exposure at December 31, 2020 reflects the temporary exclusion of U.S. Treasury securities and deposits at Federal Reserve Banks. The temporary relief expired after March 31, 2021 and is not reflected in supplementary leverage exposure at June 30, 2021.
At June 30, 2021, CET1 capital was $178.8 billion, an increase of $2.2 billion from December 31, 2020, driven by earnings, partially offset by common stock repurchases, dividends, the increase in deferred tax assets due to the change in U.K. tax law and lower net unrealized gains on available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI). Tier 1 capital increased $2.1 billion primarily driven by the same factors as CET1 capital. Total capital under the Standardized approach decreased $3.5 billion primarily driven by a decrease in the adjusted allowance for credit losses included in Tier 2 capital, partially offset by
the same factors driving the increase in CET1 capital. RWA under the Standardized approach, which yielded the lower CET1 capital ratio at June 30, 2021, increased $71.9 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $1,552 billion primarily due to strong client activity in Global Markets and investments of excess liquidity. Supplementary leverage exposure at June 30, 2021 increased $658.1 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to the expiration of the Federal Reserve’s temporary relief to exclude U.S. Treasury securities and deposits at Federal Reserve Banks.

Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity Requirements
Total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) consists of the Corporation’s Tier 1 capital and eligible long-term debt issued directly by the Corporation. Eligible long-term debt for TLAC ratios is comprised of unsecured debt that has a remaining maturity of at least one year and satisfies additional requirements as prescribed in the TLAC final rule. As with the
risk-based capital ratios and SLR, the Corporation is required to maintain TLAC ratios in excess of minimum requirements plus applicable buffers to avoid restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments. Table 12 presents the Corporation's TLAC and long-term debt ratios and related information as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Regulatory Developments
The following supplements the disclosure in Capital Management – Regulatory Developments in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Supplementary Leverage Ratio
On March 19, 2021, the U.S. banking regulators announced that the temporary change to the SLR for BHCs and depository institutions issued in 2020 would expire as scheduled after March 31, 2021. While the temporary relief automatically applied to the Corporation, the Corporation’s lead depository institution, Bank of America, N.A., did not opt to take advantage of the SLR relief offered by the OCC. At June 30, 2021, the Corporation’s SLR, reflecting the expiration of the temporary relief, was 5.9 percent, which is 0.9 percent, or $30 billion, in excess of the 5.0 percent required by the Federal Reserve.
Regulatory Capital and Securities Regulation
The Corporation’s principal U.S. broker-dealer subsidiaries are BofA Securities, Inc. (BofAS), Merrill Lynch Professional Clearing Corp. (MLPCC) and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (MLPF&S). The Corporation's principal European broker-dealer subsidiaries are Merrill Lynch International (MLI) and BofA Securities Europe SA (BofASE).
The U.S. broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the net capital requirements of Rule 15c3-1 under the Exchange Act. BofAS computes its minimum capital requirements as an alternative net capital broker-dealer under Rule 15c3-1e, and MLPCC and MLPF&S compute their minimum capital requirements in accordance with the alternative standard under Rule 15c3-1. BofAS and MLPCC are also registered as futures commission merchants and are subject to CFTC Regulation 1.17. The U.S. broker-dealer subsidiaries are also registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 4110, FINRA may impose higher net capital requirements than Rule 15c3-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to each of the broker-dealers.
BofAS provides institutional services, and in accordance with the alternative net capital requirements, is required to maintain tentative net capital in excess of $1.0 billion and net capital in excess of the greater of $500 million or a certain percentage of its reserve requirement. BofAS must also notify the SEC in the event its tentative net capital is less than $5.0 billion. BofAS is also required to hold a certain percentage of its customers' and affiliates' risk-based margin in order to meet its CFTC minimum
net capital requirement. At June 30, 2021, BofAS had tentative net capital of $18.0 billion. BofAS also had regulatory net capital of $15.2 billion, which exceeded the minimum requirement of $3.0 billion.
MLPCC is a fully-guaranteed subsidiary of BofAS and provides clearing and settlement services as well as prime brokerage and arranged financing services for institutional clients. At June 30, 2021, MLPCC’s regulatory net capital of $5.7 billion exceeded the minimum requirement of $1.5 billion.
MLPF&S provides retail services. At June 30, 2021, MLPF&S' regulatory net capital was $3.7 billion, which exceeded the minimum requirement of $182 million.
Our European broker-dealers are regulated by non-U.S. regulators. MLI, a U.K. investment firm, is regulated by the Prudential Regulation Authority and the FCA and is subject to certain regulatory capital requirements. At June 30, 2021, MLI’s capital resources were $33.9 billion, which exceeded the minimum Pillar 1 requirement of $14.8 billion. BofASE, a French investment firm, is regulated by the Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel et de Résolution and the Autorité des Marchés Financiers, and is subject to certain regulatory capital requirements. At June 30, 2021, BofASE's capital resources were $7.2 billion which exceeded the minimum Pillar 1 requirement of $2.7 billion.
Liquidity Risk
Funding and Liquidity Risk Management
Our primary liquidity risk management objective is to meet expected or unexpected cash flow and collateral needs while continuing to support our businesses and customers under a range of economic conditions. To achieve that objective, we analyze and monitor our liquidity risk under expected and stressed conditions, maintain liquidity and access to diverse funding sources, including our stable deposit base, and seek to align liquidity-related incentives and risks. These liquidity risk management practices have allowed us to effectively manage the market stress from the pandemic that began in the first quarter of 2020. For more information on the effects of the pandemic, see Executive Summary – Recent Developments – COVID-19 Pandemic on page 3 herein and Item 1A. Risk Factors – Coronavirus Disease of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We define liquidity as readily available assets, limited to cash and high-quality, liquid, unencumbered securities that we
Bank of America 26


can use to meet our contractual and contingent financial obligations as they arise. We manage our liquidity position through line-of-business and ALM activities, as well as through our legal entity funding strategy, on both a forward and current (including intraday) basis under both expected and stressed conditions. We believe that a centralized approach to funding and liquidity management enhances our ability to monitor liquidity requirements, maximizes access to funding sources, minimizes borrowing costs and facilitates timely responses to liquidity events. For more information regarding global funding and liquidity risk management, as well as liquidity sources, liquidity arrangements, contingency planning and credit ratings discussed below, see Liquidity Risk in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
NB Holdings Corporation
We have intercompany arrangements with certain key subsidiaries under which we transferred certain assets of Bank of America Corporation, as the parent company, which is a separate and distinct legal entity from our bank and nonbank subsidiaries, and agreed to transfer certain additional parent company assets not needed to satisfy anticipated near-term expenditures to NB Holdings Corporation, a wholly-owned holding company subsidiary (NB Holdings). The parent company is expected to continue to have access to the same flow of dividends, interest and other amounts of cash necessary to service its debt, pay dividends and perform other obligations as it would have had if it had not entered into these arrangements and transferred any assets. These arrangements support our preferred single point of entry resolution strategy, under which only the parent company would be resolved under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
Global Liquidity Sources and Other Unencumbered Assets

(1) Nonbank includes Parent, NB Holdings and other regulated entities.
Our bank subsidiaries’ liquidity is primarily driven by deposit and lending activity, as well as securities valuation and net debt activity. Bank subsidiaries can also generate incremental liquidity by pledging a range of 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 $300 billion and $306 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. 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. Eligibility is defined in guidelines from the FHLBs and the Federal Reserve and is subject to change at their discretion. Due to regulatory restrictions, liquidity generated by the bank subsidiaries can generally be used only to fund obligations within the bank subsidiaries, and transfers to the parent company or nonbank subsidiaries may be subject to prior regulatory approval.
Liquidity is also held in nonbank entities, including the Parent, NB Holdings and other regulated entities. Parent company and NB Holdings liquidity is typically in the form of cash deposited at BANA, which is excluded from the liquidity at bank subsidiaries, and high-quality, liquid, unencumbered securities. Liquidity held in other regulated entities, comprised primarily of broker-dealer subsidiaries, is primarily available to meet the obligations of that entity, and transfers to the parent company or to any other subsidiary may be subject to prior regulatory approval due to regulatory restrictions and minimum requirements. Our other regulated entities also hold unencumbered investment-grade securities and equities that we believe could be used to generate additional liquidity.

Our GLS are substantially the same in composition to what qualifies as High Quality Liquid Assets (HQLA) under the final U.S. Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) rules. However, HQLA for purposes of calculating LCR is not reported at market value, but at a lower value that incorporates regulatory deductions and the exclusion of excess liquidity held at certain subsidiaries. The LCR is calculated as the amount of a financial institution’s unencumbered HQLA relative to the estimated net cash outflows the institution could encounter over a 30-day period of significant liquidity stress, expressed as a percentage. Our average consolidated HQLA, on a net basis, was $602 billion and $584 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. For the same periods, the average consolidated LCR was 117 percent and 122 percent. Our LCR fluctuates due to normal business flows from customer activity.
Liquidity Stress Analysis
We utilize liquidity stress analysis to assist us in determining the appropriate amounts of liquidity to maintain at the parent company and our subsidiaries to meet contractual and contingent cash outflows under a range of scenarios. For more information on liquidity stress analysis, see Liquidity Risk – Liquidity Stress Analysis in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Net Stable Funding Ratio Final Rule
On October 20, 2020, the U.S. Agencies finalized the Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR), a rule requiring large banks to maintain a minimum level of stable funding over a one-year period. The final rule is intended to support the ability of banks to lend to households and businesses in both normal and adverse economic conditions and is complementary to the LCR rule, which focuses on short-term liquidity risks. The final rule was effective July 1, 2021. The U.S. NSFR applies to the Corporation on a consolidated basis and to our insured depository institutions. The Corporation is in compliance with
27 Bank of America



the final NSFR rule in the regulatory timeline provided, and there have not been any significant impacts to the Corporation.
Diversified Funding Sources
We fund our assets primarily with a mix of deposits, and secured and unsecured liabilities through a centralized, globally coordinated funding approach diversified across products, programs, markets, currencies and investor groups. We fund a substantial portion of our lending activities through our deposits, which were $1.91 trillion and $1.80 trillion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Our trading activities in other regulated entities 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.
Long-term Debt
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we issued $48.2 billion of long-term debt consisting of $36.9 billion of notes issued by Bank of America Corporation, substantially all of which was TLAC compliant, $4.4 billion of notes issued by Bank of America, N.A. and $6.9 billion of other debt.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had total long-term debt maturities and redemptions in the aggregate of $29.0 billion consisting of $17.6 billion for Bank of America Corporation, $5.4 billion for Bank of America, N.A. and $6.0 billion of other debt. Table 15 presents the carrying value of aggregate annual contractual maturities of long-term debt at June 30, 2021.

Total long-term debt increased $11.7 billion to $274.6 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to debt issuances, partially offset by debt maturities and redemptions and valuation adjustments. We may, from time to time, purchase outstanding debt instruments in various transactions, depending on market conditions, liquidity and other factors. Our other regulated entities may also make markets in our debt instruments to provide liquidity for investors.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we issued $2.2 billion of structured notes, which are unsecured debt obligations that pay investors returns linked to other debt or equity securities, indices, currencies or commodities. These structured notes are typically issued to meet client demand, and notes with certain attributes may also be TLAC eligible. We typically hedge the returns we are obligated to pay on these liabilities with derivatives 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 note obligations for cash or other securities prior to maturity 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.
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. For more information on long-term debt funding, including issuances and maturities and redemptions, see Note 11 – Long-term Debt to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K .
We use derivative transactions to manage interest rate and currency risks of our borrowings, considering the characteristics of the assets they are funding. For more information on our ALM activities, see Interest Rate Risk Management for the Banking Book on page 45.
Credit Ratings
Credit ratings and outlooks are opinions expressed by rating agencies 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. Table 16 presents the Corporation’s current long-term/short-term senior debt ratings and outlooks expressed by the rating agencies.
Bank of America 28


On May 24, 2021, Standard & Poor’s Global Ratings (S&P) affirmed the current ratings of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, while at the same time revising its rating outlook to Positive from Stable.
On June 7, 2021, Fitch Ratings (Fitch) upgraded the long-term senior debt ratings of the Corporation and its rated subsidiaries by one notch, to AA- and AA, respectively. Fitch also upgraded the Corporation’s short-term rating to F1+ which is now aligned with the short-term rating of its subsidiaries, including BANA. Following the upgrade, the rating outlook for the Corporation and its subsidiaries is Stable.

The current ratings and Stable outlooks for the Corporation and its subsidiaries from Moody's Investors Service did not change from those disclosed in the Corporation's 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the economy gained momentum as unemployment continued to decline from double-digit highs during 2020 and parts of the economy continued to open as vaccination rates increased, case levels showed improvements and restrictions generally began to ease. Individuals and businesses in the U.S. continue to receive various forms of support through economic stimulus packages enacted in 2020 and 2021. While there has been improvement, uncertainty remains about the timing and strength of the economy's recovery, which could lead to adverse impacts to credit quality metrics in future periods. For more information on how the pandemic may affect our operations, see Executive Summary – Recent Developments – COVID-19 Pandemic on page 3 and Item 1A. Risk Factors – Coronavirus Disease of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
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 and are a component of our consumer credit risk management process. These models are used in part to assist in making both new and ongoing credit decisions, as well as portfolio management strategies, including authorizations and line management, collection practices and strategies, and determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses and allocated capital for credit risk.
Consumer Credit Portfolio
The economic environment improved during the six months ended June 30, 2021, with the U.S. unemployment rate continuing to decline and home prices increasing. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, net charge-offs decreased $221 million and $400 million to $513 million and $1.2 billion primarily due to lower credit card losses, as balance declines and the impact of government stimulus measures were partially offset by charge-offs associated with deferrals that expired in 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, nonperforming loans increased due to deferral activity.
The consumer allowance for loan and lease losses decreased $2.6 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $7.4 billion primarily due to an improved economic outlook. For more information, see Allowance for Credit Losses on page 41.

For more information on non-core loans, see Consumer Credit Risk Management in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
(2) Residential mortgage loans accruing past due 90 days or more are fully-insured loans. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, residential mortgage includes $501 million and $537 million of loans on which interest had been curtailed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), and therefore were no longer accruing interest, although principal was still insured, and $186 million and $225 million of loans on which interest was still accruing.
(3) Outstandings primarily include auto and specialty lending loans and leases of $46.4 billion and $46.4 billion, U.S. securities-based lending loans of $46.4 billion and $41.1 billion and non-U.S. consumer loans of $3.0 billion and $3.0 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

We believe that the presentation of information adjusted to exclude the impact of 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 tables and discussions of the residential mortgage and home equity portfolios, we exclude loans accounted for under the fair value option and provide information that excludes the impact of the fully-insured loan portfolio in certain credit quality statistics.
Residential Mortgage
The residential mortgage portfolio made up the largest percentage of our consumer loan portfolio at 51 percent of consumer loans and leases at June 30, 2021. Approximately 51 percent of the residential mortgage portfolio was in Consumer
Banking and 42 percent was in GWIM. The remaining portion was in All Other and was comprised of loans used in our overall ALM activities, delinquent FHA loans repurchased pursuant to our servicing agreements with the Government National Mortgage Association, as well as loans repurchased related to our representations and warranties.
Outstanding balances in the residential mortgage portfolio decreased $9.2 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as paydowns were partially offset by originations.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the residential mortgage portfolio included $12.5 billion and $11.8 billion of outstanding fully-insured loans, of which $2.5 billion and $2.8 billion had FHA insurance, with the remainder protected by Fannie Mae long-term standby agreements.

(2) Includes loans that are contractually current which primarily consist of collateral-dependent TDRs, including those that have been discharged in Chapter 7 bankruptcy and loans that have not yet demonstrated a sustained period of payment performance following a TDR.
(3) These vintages of loans accounted for $458 million, or 20 percent, and $503 million, or 25 percent, of nonperforming residential mortgage loans at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Nonperforming outstanding balances in the residential mortgage portfolio increased $338 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily driven by deferral activity. Of the nonperforming residential mortgage loans at June 30, 2021, $1.2 billion, or 53 percent, were current on contractual payments. Loans accruing past due 30 days or more decreased $315 million driven by continued improvement in credit quality.
Net recoveries of $6 million and $10 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 remained relatively unchanged compared to the same periods in the prior year.
Of the $201.8 billion in total residential mortgage loans outstanding at June 30, 2021, as shown in Table 20, 28 percent were originated as interest-only loans. The outstanding balance of interest-only residential mortgage loans that have entered the amortization period was $5.3 billion, or nine percent, at June 30, 2021. Residential mortgage loans that have entered the amortization period generally experienced a higher rate of early stage delinquencies and nonperforming status compared to the residential mortgage portfolio as a whole. At June 30, 2021, $66 million, or one percent, of outstanding interest-only residential mortgages that had entered the amortization period were accruing past due 30 days or more
compared to $909 million, or less than one percent, for the entire residential mortgage portfolio. In addition, at June 30, 2021, $314 million, or six percent, of outstanding interest-only residential mortgage loans that had entered the amortization period were nonperforming, of which $112 million were contractually current, compared to $2.3 billion, or one percent, for the entire residential mortgage portfolio. Loans that have yet to enter the amortization period in our interest-only residential mortgage portfolio are primarily well-collateralized loans to our wealth management clients and have an interest-only period of three to ten years. Approximately 98 percent of these loans that have yet to enter the amortization period will not be required to make a fully-amortizing payment until 2022 or later.
Table 20 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 15 percent and 16 percent of outstandings at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. In the New York area, the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island MSA made up 15 percent and 14 percent of outstandings at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Home Equity
At June 30, 2021, the home equity portfolio made up seven percent of the consumer portfolio and was comprised of home equity lines of credit (HELOCs), home equity loans and reverse mortgages. HELOCs generally have an initial draw period of 10 years, and after the initial draw period ends, the loans generally convert to 15- or 20-year amortizing loans. We no longer originate home equity loans or reverse mortgages.
At June 30, 2021, 80 percent of the home equity portfolio was in Consumer Banking , 12 percent was in All Other and the remainder of the portfolio was primarily in GWIM . Outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio decreased $3.8 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to paydowns outpacing new originations and draws on existing
lines. Of the total home equity portfolio at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $12.8 billion, or 42 percent, and $13.8 billion, or 40 percent, were in first-lien positions. At June 30, 2021, 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 $5.1 billion, or 17 percent of our total home equity portfolio.
Unused HELOCs totaled $41.0 billion and $42.3 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The HELOC utilization rate was 41 percent and 43 percent at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

(2) Accruing past due 30 days or more include $21 million and $25 million and nonperforming loans include $90 million and $88 million of loans where we serviced the underlying first lien at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
(3) Includes loans that are contractually current which primarily consist of collateral-dependent TDRs, including those that have been discharged in Chapter 7 bankruptcy, junior-lien loans where the underlying first lien is 90 days or more past due, as well as loans that have not yet demonstrated a sustained period of payment performance following a TDR.
(4) These vintages of loans accounted for 35 percent and 36 percent of nonperforming home equity loans at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Nonperforming outstanding balances in the home equity portfolio remained relatively unchanged at $651 million at June 30, 2021. Of the nonperforming home equity loans at June 30, 2021, $264 million, or 41 percent were current on contractual payments. In addition, $246 million, or 38 percent of nonperforming home equity loans were 180 days or more past due and had been written down to the estimated fair value of the collateral, less costs to sell. Accruing loans that were 30 days or more past due decreased $19 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Net recoveries increased $10 million to $24 million and $34 million to $59 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase was driven by favorable portfolio trends due partly to improvement in home prices.
Of the $30.5 billion in total home equity portfolio outstandings at June 30, 2021, as shown in Table 21, 15 percent require interest-only payments. The outstanding balance of HELOCs that have reached the end of their draw period and have entered the amortization period was $8.0 billion at June 30, 2021. 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. At June 30, 2021, $107 million, or one percent, of outstanding HELOCs that had entered the amortization period were accruing past due 30 days or more. In addition, at June 30, 2021, $473 million, or six percent, were
nonperforming. Loans that have yet to enter the amortization period in our interest-only portfolio are primarily post-2008 vintages and generally have better credit quality than the previous vintages that had entered the amortization period. We communicate to contractually current customers more than a year prior to the end of their draw period to inform them of the potential change to the payment structure before entering the amortization period, and provide payment options to customers prior to the end of the draw period.
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. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, 19 percent of these customers with an outstanding balance did not pay any principal on their HELOCs.
Table 22 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 13 percent of the outstanding home equity portfolio at both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana MSA within California made up 11 percent of the outstanding home equity portfolio at both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Credit Card
At June 30, 2021, 97 percent of the credit card portfolio was managed in Consumer Banking with the remainder in GWIM . Outstandings in the credit card portfolio decreased $3.1 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $75.6 billion as increased payments more than offset higher purchase volumes as spending continued to recover. Net charge-offs decreased $177 million to $488 million and $313 million to $1.1 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 due to balance declines and the impact of government stimulus measures, partially offset by charge-offs of certain loans with deferrals that expired
in 2020. Credit card loans 30 days or more past due and still accruing interest decreased $713 million, and loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest decreased $370 million primarily due to charge-offs of certain loans with deferrals that expired in 2020 and the impact of government stimulus measures.
Unused lines of credit for credit card increased to $351.1 billion at June 30, 2021 from $342.4 billion at December 31, 2020.

Direct/Indirect Consumer
At June 30, 2021, 48 percent of the direct/indirect portfolio was included in Consumer Banking (consumer auto and recreational vehicle lending) and 52 percent was included in GWIM (principally securities-based lending loans). Outstandings in the direct/indirect portfolio increased by $5.5 billion during
the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $96.9 billion driven by client demand for liquidity and high asset values in the securities-based lending portfolio.

Nonperforming Consumer Loans, Leases and Foreclosed Properties Activity
Table 25 presents nonperforming consumer loans, leases and foreclosed properties activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, nonperforming consumer loans increased $319 million to $3.0 billion primarily driven by consumer real estate deferral activity.
At June 30, 2021, $823 million, or 27 percent of nonperforming loans were 180 days or more past due and had been written down to their estimated property value less costs to sell. In addition, at June 30, 2021, $1.6 billion, or 51
percent of nonperforming consumer loans were modified and are now current after successful trial periods, or are current
loans classified as nonperforming loans in accordance with applicable policies.
Foreclosed properties decreased $30 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $93 million as the Corporation has continued to pause formal loan foreclosure proceedings and foreclosure sales for occupied properties during 2021.
Nonperforming loans also include certain loans that have been modified in TDRs where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. Nonperforming TDRs are included in Table 25.

In addition to modifying consumer real estate loans, we work with customers who are experiencing financial difficulty by modifying credit card and other consumer loans. Credit card and other consumer loan modifications generally involve a reduction in the customer’s interest rate on the account and placing the customer on a fixed payment plan not exceeding 60 months.

Modifications of credit card and other consumer loans are made through programs utilizing direct customer contact, but may also utilize external programs. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our credit card and other consumer TDR portfolio was $673 million and $701 million, of which $600 million and $614 million were current or less than 30 days past due under the modified terms.

Commercial Portfolio Credit Risk Management
Commercial credit risk is evaluated and managed with the goal that concentrations of credit exposure continue to be aligned with our risk appetite. 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 non-U.S. portfolio, we evaluate exposures by region and by country. Tables 31, 34 and 37 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 more information on our industry concentrations, see Table 34 and Commercial Portfolio Credit Risk Management – Industry Concentrations on page 38.
For more information on our accounting policies regarding delinquencies, nonperforming status, net charge-offs and TDRs for the commercial portfolio as well as interest accrual policies and delinquency status for loan modifications related to the pandemic, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Commercial Credit Portfolio
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, commercial asset quality improved as the economic recovery gained momentum amid COVID-19 containment and vaccination progress. Accordingly, charge-offs, nonperforming commercial loans and reservable criticized utilized exposure declined during this period. Outstanding commercial loans and leases increased $1.7 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to growth in commercial and industrial, primarily in Global Markets with most of the increase in investment grade exposures. This increase was largely offset by lower U.S. small business
commercial loans due to PPP forgiveness. For more information on PPP loans, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Credit quality of commercial real estate borrowers has begun to stabilize in many sectors as economies have reopened. However, certain sectors, including hospitality and retail, while showing signs of improvement, continue to be negatively impacted due to the pandemic. Moreover, many real estate markets, while improving, are still experiencing some disruptions in demand, supply chain challenges and tenant difficulties.
The commercial allowance for loan and lease losses decreased $2.1 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $6.7 billion primarily driven by an improved macroeconomic outlook. For more information, see Allowance for Credit Losses on page 41.
Total commercial utilized credit exposure decreased $7.3 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $613.0 billion primarily driven by lower derivative assets. The utilization rate for loans and leases, standby letters of credit (SBLCs) and financial guarantees, and commercial letters of credit, in the aggregate, was 55 percent at June 30, 2021 and 57 percent at December 31, 2020.
Table 27 presents commercial credit exposure by type for utilized, unfunded and total binding committed credit exposure. Commercial utilized credit exposure includes SBLCs and financial guarantees and commercial letters of credit that have been issued and for which we are legally bound to advance funds under prescribed conditions during a specified time period, and excludes exposure related to trading account assets. Although funds have not yet been advanced, these exposure types are considered utilized for credit risk management purposes.

Commercial and Industrial
Commercial and industrial loans include U.S. commercial and non-U.S. commercial portfolios.
U.S. Commercial
At June 30, 2021, 61 percent of the U.S. commercial loan portfolio, excluding small business, was managed in Global Banking, 21 percent in Global Markets , 16 percent in GWIM (loans that provide financing for asset purchases, business investments and other liquidity needs for high net worth clients) and the remainder primarily in Consumer Banking . U.S. commercial loans increased $2.4 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 driven by Global Markets . Reservable criticized utilized exposure decreased $6.5 billion, which was broad-based across industries.
Non-U.S. Commercial
At June 30, 2021, 72 percent of the non-U.S. commercial loan portfolio was managed in Global Banking and 28 percent in Global Markets . Non-U.S. commercial loans increased $7.7 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily in Global Markets . For information on the non-U.S. commercial portfolio, see Non-U.S. Portfolio on page 40.

Commercial Real Estate
Commercial real estate primarily includes commercial loans secured by non-owner-occupied real estate and is dependent on the sale or lease of the real estate as the primary source of repayment. Outstanding loans declined by $758 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as paydowns exceeded new originations. The portfolio remains diversified across property types and geographic regions. California represented the largest state concentration at 24 percent and 23 percent of the commercial real estate portfolio at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The commercial real estate portfolio is predominantly managed in Global Banking and consists of loans made primarily to public and private developers, and commercial real estate firms.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we continued to see low default rates and varying degrees of improvement in the portfolio. We use a number of proactive risk mitigation initiatives to reduce adversely rated exposure in the commercial real estate portfolio, including transfers of deteriorating exposures for management by independent special asset officers and the pursuit of loan restructurings or asset sales to achieve the best results for our customers and the Corporation.

U.S. Small Business Commercial
The U.S. small business commercial loan portfolio is comprised of small business card loans and small business loans primarily managed in Consumer Banking, and includes $15.7 billion and $22.7 billion of PPP loans outstanding at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The decline of $7.0 billion in PPP loans during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was due to repayment of the loans by the Small Business Administration under the terms of the program. Excluding PPP, credit card-related products were 51 percent and 50 percent of the U.S.
small business commercial portfolio at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Of the U.S. small business commercial net charge-offs, 100 percent and 95 percent were credit card-related products for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 95 percent and 92 percent for the same periods in 2020.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, nonperforming commercial loans and leases decreased $364 million to $1.9 billion. At June 30, 2021, 78 percent of commercial nonperforming loans, leases and foreclosed properties were
secured and 59 percent were contractually current. Commercial nonperforming loans were carried at approximately 88 percent of their unpaid principal balance, as the carrying value of these loans has been reduced to the estimated collateral value less costs to sell.

Table 34 presents commercial committed and utilized credit exposure by industry. For information on net notional credit protection purchased to hedge funded and unfunded exposures for which we elected the fair value option, as well as certain other credit exposures, see Commercial Portfolio Credit Risk Management – Risk Mitigation.
Our commercial credit exposure is diversified across a broad range of industries. Total commercial committed exposure increased $34.7 billion, or three percent, during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $1.1 trillion. The increase in commercial committed exposure was concentrated in Asset managers and funds, Finance companies, Healthcare equipment and services and Media industry sectors. Increases were partially offset by decreased exposure to the Government and public education and Vehicle dealers industry sectors.
For information on industry limits, see Commercial Portfolio Credit Risk Management – Industry Concentrations in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Asset managers and funds, our largest industry concentration with committed exposure of $118.6 billion, increased $18.3 billion, or 18 percent, during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

(1) Includes U.S. small business commercial exposure.
(2) Includes the notional amount of unfunded legally binding lending commitments net of amounts distributed (i.e., syndicated or participated) to other financial institutions. The distributed amounts were $10.9 billion and $10.5 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
(3) Industries are viewed from a variety of perspectives to best isolate the perceived risks. For purposes of this table, the real estate industry is defined based on the primary business activity of the borrowers or counterparties using operating cash flows and primary source of repayment as key factors.
Risk Mitigation
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, we may add credit exposure within an industry, borrower or counterparty group by selling protection.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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 $3.6 billion and $4.2 billion. For these same positions, we recorded net losses of $32 million and $68 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to net losses of $231 million and $2 million for the same periods in 2020. The gains and losses on these instruments were offset by gains and losses on the related
exposures. The Value-at-Risk (VaR) results for these exposures are included in the fair value option portfolio information in Table 40. For more information, see Trading Risk Management on page 43.
Tables 35 and 36 present the maturity profiles and the credit exposure debt ratings of the net credit default protection portfolio at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

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. In addition to the direct risk of doing business in a country, we also are exposed to indirect country risks (e.g., related to the collateral received on secured financing transactions or related to client clearing activities). These indirect exposures are managed in the normal course of business through credit, market and operational risk governance rather than through country risk governance. For more information on our non-U.S. credit and trading portfolios, see Non-U.S. Portfolio in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Table 37 presents our 20 largest non-U.S. country exposures at June 30, 2021. These exposures accounted for 91 percent and 90 percent of our total non-U.S. exposure at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Net country exposure for these 20 countries increased $37.9 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The majority of the increase was due to higher deposits with central banks in Japan, Switzerland and Ireland, increased exposure with central clearing counterparts in the U.K. and increased corporate exposure in Canada.

Our largest non-U.S. country exposure at June 30, 2021 was the U.K. with net exposure of $64.9 billion, which represents a $5.4 billion increase from December 31, 2020. Our second largest non-U.S. country exposure was Germany with net exposure of $40.6 billion at June 30, 2021, a $4.3 billion decrease from December 31, 2020.

In light of the global pandemic, we are monitoring our non-U.S. exposure closely, particularly in countries where restrictions on certain activities, in an attempt to contain the spread and impact of the virus, have affected and will likely continue to adversely affect economic activity. We are managing the impact to our international business operations as part of our overall response framework and are taking actions to manage exposure

carefully in impacted regions while supporting the needs of our clients. While vaccines have become more widely available in certain countries, the magnitude and duration of the pandemic and its full impact on the global economy continue to be highly uncertain. The impact of the pandemic could have an adverse impact on the global economy for a prolonged period of time. For more information on the pandemic, see Item 1A. Risk Factors – Coronavirus Disease and Executive Summary – Recent Developments – COVID-19 Pandemic of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses decreased by $4.9 billion from December 31, 2020 to $15.8 billion at June 30, 2021, which included a $2.2 billion reserve decrease related to the commercial portfolio and a $2.7 billion reserve decrease related to the consumer portfolio. The decreases were primarily driven by an improved macroeconomic outlook.

Net charge-offs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were $595 million and $1.4 billion compared to $1.1 billion and $2.3 billion for the same periods in 2020 driven by decreases across most products. The provision for credit losses decreased $6.7 billion to a $1.6 billion benefit, and $13.4 billion to a $3.5 billion benefit, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. The allowance for credit losses had a reserve release of $4.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily driven by an improved macroeconomic outlook. The provision for credit losses for the consumer portfolio, including unfunded lending commitments, decreased $3.3 billion to a $707 million benefit and $6.2 billion to a $1.5 billion benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the
same periods in 2020. The provision for credit losses for the commercial portfolio, including unfunded lending commitments, decreased $3.4 billion to a $914 million benefit and $7.2 billion to a $2.0 billion benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020.

Market Risk Management
For more information on our market risk management process, see Market Risk Management in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Market risk is the risk that changes in market conditions may adversely impact the value of assets or liabilities, or
otherwise negatively impact earnings. This risk is inherent in the financial instruments associated with our operations, primarily
within our Global Markets segment. We are also exposed to these risks in other areas of the Corporation (e.g., our ALM activities). In the event of market stress, these risks could have a material impact on our results.
Bank of America 42


We have been affected, and may continue to be affected, by market stress resulting from the pandemic that began in the first quarter of 2020. For more information, see Executive Summary – Recent Developments – COVID-19 Pandemic on page 3 and Item 1A. Risk Factors – Coronavirus Disease of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Trading Risk Management
To evaluate risks in our trading activities, we focus on the actual and potential volatility of revenues generated by individual positions as well as portfolios of positions. VaR is a common statistic used to measure market risk. Our primary VaR statistic is equivalent to a 99 percent confidence level, which means that for a VaR with a one-day holding period, there should not be losses in excess of VaR, on average, 99 out of 100 trading days.
Table 40 presents the total market-based portfolio VaR, which is the combination of the total covered positions (and less liquid trading positions) portfolio and the fair value option
portfolio. For more information on the market risk VaR for trading activities, see Trading Risk Management in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The total market-based portfolio VaR results in Table 40 include market risk to which we are exposed from all business segments, excluding credit valuation adjustment (CVA), DVA and related hedges. The majority of this portfolio is within the Global Markets segment.
Table 40 presents period-end, average, high and low daily trading VaR for the three months ended June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020 using a 99 percent confidence level, as well as average daily trading VaR for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The amounts disclosed in Table 40 and Table 41 align to the view of covered positions used in the Basel 3 capital calculations. Foreign exchange and commodity positions are always considered covered positions, regardless of trading or banking treatment for the trade, except for structural foreign currency positions that are excluded with prior regulatory approval.
The average of total covered positions and less liquid trading positions portfolio VaR increased for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior quarter primarily due to an increase in interest rate risk, partially offset by an increased diversification benefit between asset classes.

(1) The high and low for each portfolio may have occurred on different trading days than the high and low for the components. Therefore the impact from less liquid exposures and the amount of portfolio diversification, which is the difference between the total portfolio and the sum of the individual components, is not relevant.
The graph below presents the daily covered positions and less liquid trading positions portfolio VaR for the previous five quarters, corresponding to the data in Table 40.

Additional VaR statistics produced within our single VaR model are provided in Table 41 at the same level of detail as in Table 40. Evaluating VaR with additional statistics allows for an increased understanding of the risks in the portfolio as the historical market data used in the VaR calculation does not
necessarily follow a predefined statistical distribution. Table 41 presents average trading VaR statistics at 99 percent and 95
percent confidence levels for the three months ended June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020.

Backtesting
The accuracy of the VaR methodology is evaluated by backtesting, which compares the daily VaR results, utilizing a one-day holding period, against a comparable subset of trading revenue. For more information on our backtesting process, see Trading Risk Management – Backtesting in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no days where this subset of trading revenue had losses that exceeded our total covered portfolio VaR, utilizing a one-day holding period.
Total Trading-related Revenue
Total trading-related revenue, excluding brokerage fees, and CVA, DVA and funding valuation adjustment gains (losses), represents the total amount earned from trading positions, including market-based net interest income, which are taken in a diverse range of financial instruments and markets. For more information, see Trading Risk Management – Total Trading-related Revenue in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The following histogram is a graphic depiction of trading volatility and illustrates the daily level of trading-related revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, positive trading-related revenue was recorded for 100 percent of the trading days, of which 77 percent were daily trading gains of over $25 million. This
compares to the three months ended March 31, 2021 where positive trading-related revenue was recorded for 98 percent of the trading days, of which 94 percent were daily trading gains of over $25 million.
bac-20210630_g2.jpg Trading Portfolio Stress Testing
Because the very nature of a VaR model suggests results can exceed our estimates and it is dependent on a limited historical window, we also stress test our portfolio using scenario analysis. This analysis estimates the change in the value of our trading portfolio that may result from abnormal market movements. For more information, see Trading Risk Management – Trading Portfolio Stress Testing in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Interest Rate Risk Management for the Banking Book
The following discussion presents net interest income for banking book activities. For more information, see Interest Rate Risk Management for the Banking Book in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Table 42 presents the spot and 12-month forward rates used in our baseline forecasts at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Table 43 shows the pretax impact to forecasted net interest income over the next 12 months from June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 resulting from instantaneous parallel and non-parallel shocks to the market-based forward curve. Periodically we evaluate the scenarios presented so that they are meaningful in the context of the current rate environment. The interest rate scenarios also assume U.S. dollar rates are floored at zero.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the decrease in asset sensitivity of our balance sheet to Up-rate and Down-rate scenarios was primarily due to ALM activity and an increase in long-end rates. We continue to be asset sensitive to a parallel upward move in interest rates with the majority of that impact coming from the short end of the yield curve. Additionally, higher interest rates impact the fair value of debt securities and, accordingly, for debt securities classified as AFS, may adversely affect accumulated OCI and thus capital levels under the Basel 3 capital rules. Under instantaneous upward parallel shifts, the near-term adverse impact to Basel 3 capital is reduced over time by offsetting positive impacts to net interest income. For more information on Basel 3, see Capital Management – Regulatory Capital on page 22.

The sensitivity analysis in Table 43 assumes that we take no action in response to these rate shocks and does not assume any change in other macroeconomic variables normally correlated with changes in interest rates. As part of our ALM activities, we use securities, certain residential mortgages, and interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives in managing interest rate sensitivity.
The behavior of our deposits portfolio in the baseline forecast and in alternate interest rate scenarios is a key assumption in our projected estimates of net interest income. The sensitivity analysis in Table 43 assumes no change in deposit portfolio size or mix from the baseline forecast in alternate rate environments. In higher rate scenarios, any customer activity resulting in the replacement of low-cost or non-interest-bearing deposits with higher yielding deposits or market-based funding would reduce our benefit in those scenarios.
Interest Rate and Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts
We use interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts in our ALM activities to manage our interest rate and foreign exchange risks. Specifically, we use those derivatives to manage both the variability in cash flows and changes in fair value of various assets and liabilities arising from those risks. Our interest rate derivative contracts are generally non-leveraged swaps tied to various benchmark interest rates and foreign exchange basis swaps, options, futures and forwards, and our foreign exchange contracts include cross-currency interest rate swaps, foreign currency futures contracts, foreign currency forward contracts and options.
The derivatives used in our ALM activities can be split into two broad categories: designated accounting hedges and other risk management derivatives. Designated accounting hedges are primarily used to manage our exposure to interest rates as described in the Interest Rate Risk Management for the Banking Book section and are included in the sensitivities presented in Table 43. The Corporation also uses foreign currency derivatives in accounting hedges to manage substantially all of the foreign exchange risk of our foreign operations. By hedging the foreign exchange risk of our foreign operations, the Corporation's market risk exposure in this area is insignificant.
Risk management derivatives are predominantly used to hedge foreign exchange risks related to various foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities and eliminate substantially all foreign currency exposures in the cash flows of the Corporation’s non-trading foreign currency-denominated financial instruments. These foreign exchange derivatives are sensitive to other market risk exposures such as cross-currency basis spreads and interest rate risk. However, as these features are not a significant component of these foreign exchange derivatives, the market risk related to this exposure is insignificant. For more information on the accounting for derivatives, see Note 3 – Derivatives to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
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 held for investment 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.
45 Bank of America



Changes in interest rates impact the value of interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) and the related residential first mortgage loans held-for-sale (LHFS), as well as the value of the MSRs. Because the interest rate risks of these hedged items offset, we combine them into one overall hedged item with one combined economic hedge portfolio consisting of derivative contracts and securities. For more information on IRLCs and the related residential mortgage LHFS, see Mortgage Banking Risk Management in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded gains of $9 million and $22 million related to the change in fair value of the MSRs, IRLCs and LHFS, net of gains and losses on the hedge portfolio, compared to gains of $65 million and $228 million for the same periods in 2020. For more information on MSRs, see Note 14 – Fair Value Measurements to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Climate Risk Management
Climate-related risks are divided into two major categories: (1) risks related to the transition to a low-carbon economy, and (2) risks related to the physical impacts of climate change. The financial impacts of transition risk can lead to and amplify credit risk. Physical risk can also lead to increased credit risk by diminishing borrowers’ repayment capacity or collateral values. As climate risk is interconnected with all key risk types, we have developed and continue to enhance processes to embed climate risk considerations into our Risk Framework and risk management programs established for strategic, credit, market, liquidity, compliance, operational and reputational risks. For more information on our governance framework and climate risk management process, see the Managing Risk and the Climate Risk Management sections in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For additional information on climate risk, see Item 1A. Risk Factors – Other of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Complex Accounting Estimates
Our significant accounting principles 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. For more
information, see Complex Accounting Estimates in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The nature of and accounting for goodwill and intangible assets are discussed in Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the Consolidated Financial Statements herein and Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Table 44 presents goodwill recorded on our consolidated balance sheet as of the periods presented.

We completed our annual goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2021 by using a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit is less than its respective carrying value. Factors considered in the qualitative assessment include, among other things, macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, financial performance of the respective reporting unit and other relevant entity- and reporting-unit specific considerations. Based on our qualitative assessment, we have concluded that it was not “more likely than not” that the reporting units fair values were less than their carrying values.

Bank of America Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
Bank of America Corporation, a bank holding company and 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 Bank of America Corporation, individually, Bank of America Corporation and its subsidiaries, or certain of Bank of America Corporation’s subsidiaries or affiliates.
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. 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 other 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. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates and assumptions.
These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements, and related notes thereto, of the Corporation’s 2020 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. Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current-period presentation.
U .K. Tax Law Change
On June 10, 2021, the U.K. enacted the 2021 Finance Act, which increases the U.K. corporation income tax rate to 25 percent from 19 percent, effective April 1, 2023. As a result, during the second quarter of 2021, the Corporation recorded a write-up of U.K. net deferred tax assets of approximately $ 2.0 billion with a corresponding positive income tax adjustment.
NOTE 2 Net Interest Income and Noninterest Income
The following table presents the Corporation’s net interest income and noninterest income disaggregated by revenue source for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. For more information, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K . For a disaggregation of noninterest income by business segment and All Other , see Note 17 – Business Segment Information .

Derivatives Designated as Accounting Hedges
The Corporation uses various types of interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts to protect against changes in the fair value of its assets and liabilities due to fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates (fair value hedges). The Corporation also uses these types of contracts 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 and cross-currency basis swaps, and by issuing foreign currency-denominated debt (net investment hedges).

The table below summarizes the carrying value of hedged assets and liabilities that are designated and qualifying in fair value hedging relationships along with the cumulative amount of fair value hedging adjustments included in the carrying value that have been recorded in the current hedging relationships. These fair value hedging adjustments are open basis adjustments that are not subject to amortization as long as the hedging relationship remains designated.

(1) Increase (decrease) to carrying value.
(2) At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the cumulative fair value adjustments remaining on long-term debt and available-for-sale debt securities from discontinued hedging relationships resulted in an increase in the related liability of $ 1.0 billion and $ 3.7 billion and a decrease in the related asset of $ 68 million and $ 69 million, which are being amortized over the remaining contractual life of the de-designated hedged items.
(3) These amounts include the amortized cost of the prepayable financial assets used to designate hedging relationships in which the hedged item is the last layer expected to be remaining at the end of the hedging relationship (i.e. last-of-layer hedging relationship). At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the amortized cost of the closed portfolios used in these hedging relationships was $ 26.8 billion and $ 34.6 billion, of which $ 7.0 billion was designated in the last-of-layer hedging relationship at both dates. At June 30, 2021, the cumulative adjustment associated with these hedging relationships was a decrease of $ 99 million. At December 31, 2020, the cumulative adjustment was insignificant.
(4) Carrying value represents amortized cost.
(5) Represents hedging activities related to certain commodities inventory.
Cash Flow and Net Investment Hedges
The table below summarizes certain information related to cash flow hedges and net investment hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Of the $ 273 million after-tax net loss ($ 365 million pretax) on derivatives in accumulated OCI at June 30, 2021, gains of $ 244 million after-tax ($ 330 million pretax) related to both open and terminated cash flow hedges are expected to be reclassified into earnings
in the next 12 months. These net gains reclassified into earnings are expected to primarily increase net interest income related to the respective hedged items. For terminated cash flow hedges, the time period over which the majority of the forecasted transactions are hedged is approximately 3 years, with a maximum length of time for certain forecasted transactions of 15 years.

Transfers of Financial Assets with Risk Retained through Derivatives
The Corporation enters into certain transactions involving the transfer of financial assets that are accounted for as sales where substantially all of the economic exposure to the transferred financial assets is retained through derivatives (e.g., interest rate and/or credit), but the Corporation does not retain control over the assets transferred. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation had transferred $ 4.9 billion and $ 5.2 billion of non-U.S. government-guaranteed mortgage-backed securities (MBS) to a third-party trust and retained economic exposure to the transferred assets through derivative contracts. In connection with these transfers, the Corporation received gross cash proceeds of $ 5.0 billion and $ 5.2 billion at the transfer dates. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair value of the transferred securities was $ 5.3 billion and $ 5.5 billion.
Sales and Trading Revenue
The Corporation enters into trading derivatives to facilitate client
transactions 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 Markets business segment. For more information on sales and trading revenue, see Note 3 – Derivatives to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
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 Global Markets , categorized by primary risk, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. This table includes debit valuation adjustment (DVA) and funding valuation adjustment (FVA) gains (losses).

Credit Derivatives
The Corporation enters into credit derivatives primarily to facilitate client transactions and to manage credit risk exposures. Credit derivatives are classified as investment and non-investment grade based on the credit quality of the underlying referenced obligation. The Corporation considers ratings of BBB- or higher as investment grade. Non-investment grade includes non-rated credit derivative instruments. The Corporation discloses internal categorizations of investment
grade and non-investment grade consistent with how risk is managed for these instruments. For more information on credit derivatives, see Note 3 – Derivatives to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Credit derivative instruments where the Corporation is the seller of credit protection and their expiration at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are summarized in the table below.

The notional amount represents the maximum amount payable by the Corporation for most credit derivatives. However, the Corporation does not monitor its exposure to credit derivatives based solely on the 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 so that certain credit risk-related losses occur within acceptable, predefined limits.
Credit-related notes in the table above include investments in securities issued by collateralized debt obligation (CDO), collateralized loan obligation (CLO) 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.
Credit-related Contingent Features and Collateral
Certain of the Corporation’s derivative contracts contain credit risk-related contingent features, primarily in the form of 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. 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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation held cash and securities collateral of $ 85.8 billion and $ 96.5 billion and posted cash and securities collateral of $ 76.9 billion and $ 88.6 billion in the normal course of business under derivative agreements, excluding cross-product margining agreements where clients are permitted to margin on a net basis for both derivative and secured financing arrangements.
In connection with certain over-the-counter 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 or certain 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. For more information on credit-related contingent features and collateral, see Note 3 – Derivatives to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
At June 30, 2021, the amount of collateral, calculated based on the terms of the contracts, that the Corporation and certain subsidiaries could be required to post to counterparties but had not yet posted to counterparties was $ 2.6 billion, including $ 1.4 billion for Bank of America, National Association.
Some counterparties are currently able to unilaterally terminate certain contracts, or the Corporation or certain
subsidiaries may be required to take other action such as find a suitable replacement or obtain a guarantee. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the liability recorded for these derivative contracts was not significant.
The table below presents the amount of additional collateral that would have been contractually required by derivative contracts and other trading agreements at June 30, 2021 if the rating agencies had downgraded their long-term senior debt ratings for the Corporation or certain subsidiaries by one incremental notch and by an additional second incremental notch. The table also presents derivative liabilities that would be subject to unilateral termination by counterparties upon downgrade of the Corporation's or certain subsidiaries' long-term senior debt ratings.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Corporation monitors credit quality within its Consumer Real Estate, Credit Card and Other Consumer, and Commercial 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 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Within the Consumer Real Estate portfolio segment, the primary credit quality indicators are refreshed loan-to-value (LTV) and refreshed Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) score. Refreshed LTV measures the carrying value of the loan as a percentage of the value of the property securing the loan, refreshed quarterly. Home equity loans are evaluated using combined loan-to-value (CLTV), which measures the carrying value of the Corporation’s loan and available line of credit combined with any outstanding senior liens against the property as a percentage of the value of the property securing the loan, refreshed quarterly. FICO score measures the creditworthiness of the borrower based on the financial obligations of the borrower and the borrower’s credit history. FICO scores are typically refreshed quarterly or more frequently. Certain borrowers (e.g., borrowers that have had debts discharged in a
bankruptcy proceeding) may not have their FICO scores updated. FICO scores are 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. Within the Commercial portfolio segment, loans are evaluated using the internal classifications of 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 quality 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.
The following tables present certain credit quality indicators for the Corporation's Consumer Real Estate, Credit Card and Other Consumer, and Commercial portfolio segments by class of financing receivables and year of origination for term loan balances at June 30, 2021, including revolving loans that converted to term loans without an additional credit decision after origination or through a TDR.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, commercial asset quality showed signs of stabilization as economic recovery gained momentum. Commercial reservable criticized utilized exposure decreased to $ 28.9 billion at June 30, 2021 from $ 38.7 billion (to 5.45 percent from 7.31 percent of total commercial reservable utilized exposure) at December 31, 2020, which was broad-based across industries.
Troubled Debt Restructurings
The Corporation has been entering into loan modifications with borrowers in response to the pandemic, most of which are not classified as TDRs, and therefore are not included in the following discussion. For more information on the criteria for classifying loans as TDRs, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Consumer Real Estate
Modifications of consumer real estate loans are classified as TDRs when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and a concession has been granted. 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 permanently modifying a loan, the Corporation may enter into trial modifications with certain borrowers under both government and proprietary programs. Trial modifications generally represent a three- to four-month period during which the borrower makes monthly payments under the anticipated modified payment terms. Upon successful completion of the trial period, the Corporation and the borrower enter into a permanent modification. Binding trial modifications are classified as TDRs when the trial offer is made and continue to be classified as TDRs regardless of whether the borrower enters into a permanent modification.
Consumer real estate loans of $ 343 million that have been discharged in Chapter 7 bankruptcy with no change in repayment terms and not reaffirmed by the borrower were included in TDRs at June 30, 2021, of which $ 99 million were classified as nonperforming and $ 61 million were loans fully insured.
Consumer real estate TDRs are measured primarily based on the net present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate. If the carrying value of a TDR exceeds this amount, a specific allowance is recorded as
a component of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Alternatively, consumer real estate 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. Consumer real estate loans that reach 180 days past due prior to modification are charged off to their net realizable value, less costs to sell, before they are modified as TDRs in accordance with established policy. 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 loan and lease losses on the outstanding principal balance, even after they have been modified in a TDR.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, remaining commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose terms have been modified in a consumer real estate TDR were not significant. Consumer real estate foreclosed properties totaled $ 93 million and $ 123 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The carrying value of consumer real estate loans, including fully-insured loans, for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process at June 30, 2021 was $ 1.1 billion. Although the Corporation has continued to pause formal loan foreclosure proceedings and foreclosure sales for occupied properties, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Corporation reclassified $ 20 million of consumer real estate loans completed or which were in process prior to the pause in foreclosures, to foreclosed properties or, for properties acquired upon foreclosure of certain government-guaranteed loans (principally FHA-insured loans), to other assets. The reclassifications represent non-cash investing activities and, accordingly, are not reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
The table below presents the June 30, 2021 and 2020 unpaid principal balance, carrying value, and average pre- and post-modification interest rates of consumer real estate loans that were modified in TDRs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The following Consumer Real Estate portfolio segment tables include loans that were initially classified as TDRs during the period and also loans that had previously been classified as TDRs and were modified again during the period.

Credit Card and Other Consumer
The Corporation seeks to assist customers that are experiencing financial difficulty by modifying loans while ensuring compliance with federal and local laws and guidelines. Credit card and other consumer loan modifications generally involve reducing the interest rate on the account, placing the customer on a fixed payment plan not exceeding 60 months and canceling the customer’s available line of credit, all of which are considered TDRs. 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 that provide solutions to customers’ entire unsecured debt structures (external programs). The Corporation classifies other secured consumer loans that have been discharged in Chapter 7 bankruptcy as TDRs, which are written down to collateral value and placed on nonaccrual status no later than the time of discharge.
The table below provides information on the Corporation’s Credit Card and Other Consumer TDR portfolio including the June 30, 2021 and 2020 unpaid principal balance, carrying value, and average pre- and post-modification interest rates of loans that were modified in TDRs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

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 and lease losses for credit card and other consumer. Based on historical experience, the Corporation estimates that 11 percent of new credit card TDRs and 20 percent of new direct/indirect consumer TDRs may be in payment default within 12 months after modification.
Commercial Loans
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 borrower 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. Infrequently, concessions may also include principal forgiveness in connection with foreclosure, short sale or other settlement agreements leading to termination or sale of the loan.
At the time of restructuring, the loans are remeasured to reflect the impact, if any, on projected cash flows resulting from the modified terms. 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.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the carrying value of the Corporation’s commercial loans that were modified as TDRs was $ 320 million and $ 865 million compared to $ 789 million and $ 1.3 billion for the same periods in 2020. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation had $ 1.9 billion and $ 1.7 billion of commercial TDRs with remaining
commitments to lend additional funds to debtors of $ 343 million and $ 402 million. The balance of commercial TDRs in payment default was $ 149 million and $ 218 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Loans Held-for-sale
The Corporation had LHFS of $ 8.3 billion and $ 9.2 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Cash and non-cash proceeds from sales and paydowns of loans originally classified as LHFS were $ 18.2 billion and $ 11.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Cash used for originations and purchases of LHFS totaled approximately $ 17.0 billion and $ 9.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.
Accrued Interest Receivable
Accrued interest receivable for loans and leases and loans held-for-sale at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $ 2.3 billion and $ 2.4 billion and is reported in customer and other receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Outstanding credit card loan balances include unpaid principal, interest and fees. Credit card loans are not classified as nonperforming but are charged off no later than the end of the month in which the account becomes 180 days past due, within 60 days after receipt of notification of death or bankruptcy, or upon confirmation of fraud . During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Corporation reversed $ 124 million and $ 282 million of interest and fee income against the income statement line item in which it was originally recorded upon charge-off of the principal balance of the loan .
For the outstanding residential mortgage, home equity, direct/indirect consumer and commercial loan balances classified as nonperforming during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Corporation reversed $ 9 million and $ 17 million of interest and fee income at the time the loans were classified as nonperforming against the income statement line item in which it was originally recorded. For more information on the Corporation's nonperforming loan policies, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
73 Bank of America



Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses is estimated using quantitative and qualitative methods that consider a variety of factors, such as historical loss experience, the current credit quality of the portfolio and an economic outlook over the life of the loan. Qualitative reserves cover losses that are expected but, in the Corporation's assessment, may not be adequately reflected in the quantitative methods or the economic assumptions. The Corporation incorporates forward-looking information through the use of several macroeconomic scenarios in determining the weighted economic outlook over the forecasted life of the assets. These scenarios include key macroeconomic variables such as gross domestic product, unemployment rate, real estate prices and corporate bond spreads. The scenarios that are chosen each quarter and the weighting given to each scenario depend on a variety of factors including recent economic events, leading economic indicators, internal and third-party economist views, and industry trends. For more information on the Corporation's credit loss accounting policies including the allowance for credit losses, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The June 30, 2021 estimate for allowance for credit losses was based on various economic outlooks that included consensus estimates, a downside scenario that assumed a significantly longer period until economic recovery, a tail risk scenario similar to the severely adverse scenario used in stress testing, a scenario to account for inflationary risk and higher interest rates and an upside scenario to reflect the continued improvement in the consensus outlooks. The weighted economic outlook assumed that the U.S. unemployment rate at the end of 2021 will be relatively consistent with the level as of June 2021, which was approximately six percent, and continue to decline to slightly above five percent by the end of 2022. Additionally, in this economic outlook, year-over-year U.S. gross
domestic product is forecasted to grow at 4.5 percent, 1.9 percent and 2.1 percent in the fourth quarters of 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The allowance for credit losses considered the impact of enacted government stimulus measures and continued to factor in the uncertainty resulting from the unprecedented nature of the current health crisis and risks that may prevent a full economic recovery.
The Corporation also factored into its allowance for credit losses an estimated impact from higher-risk segments that included leveraged loans and industries such as travel and entertainment, which have been adversely impacted by the effects of the pandemic, as well as the energy sector.
The allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2021 was $ 15.8 billion, a decrease of $ 4.9 billion compared to December 31, 2020. The decrease in the allowance for credit losses was primarily driven by an improved macroeconomic outlook. The decrease in the allowance for credit losses was comprised of a net decrease of $ 4.7 billion in the allowance for loan and lease losses and a $ 191 million decrease in the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The decrease in the allowance for credit losses was attributed to $ 291 million in the consumer real estate portfolio, $ 2.4 billion in the credit card and other consumer portfolio, and $ 2.2 billion in the commercial portfolio.
Outstanding loans and leases excluding loans accounted for under the fair value option decreased $ 9.2 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2021, driven by consumer loans, which decreased $ 10.6 billion primarily due to a decline in consumer real estate due to prepayments in a low rate environment. However, outstanding commercial loans and leases, excluding small business, increased $ 8.0 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily driven by Global Markets with most of the increase in investment grade exposures.
The changes in the allowance for credit losses, including net charge-offs and provision for loan and lease losses, are detailed in the following table.

NOTE 6 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 tables in this Note present the assets and liabilities of consolidated and unconsolidated VIEs at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 in situations where the Corporation has continuing involvement with transferred assets or if the Corporation otherwise has a variable interest in the VIE. The tables also present the Corporation's maximum loss exposure at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 resulting from its involvement with consolidated and unconsolidated VIEs
in which the Corporation holds a variable interest. For more information on the Corporation's use of VIEs and related maximum loss exposure, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles and Note 6 – Securitizations and Other Variable Interest Entities to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Corporation invests in ABS issued by third-party VIEs with which it has no other form of involvement and enters into certain commercial lending arrangements that may also incorporate the use of VIEs, for example to hold collateral. These securities and loans are included in Note 4 – Securities or
75 Bank of America



Note 5 – Outstanding Loans and Leases and Allowance for Credit Losses. In addition, the Corporation has used VIEs in connection with its funding activities.
The Corporation did not provide financial support to consolidated or unconsolidated VIEs during the six months ended June 30, 2021 or the year ended December 31, 2020 that it was not previously contractually required to provide, nor does it intend to do so.
The Corporation had liquidity commitments, including written put options and collateral value guarantees, with certain unconsolidated VIEs of $ 968 million and $ 929 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
First-lien Mortgage Securitizations
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. Except as described in Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies , the Corporation does not provide guarantees or recourse to the securitization trusts other than standard representations and warranties.
The table below summarizes select information related to first-lien mortgage securitizations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

(1) The Corporation transfers residential mortgage loans to securitizations sponsored primarily by the Government-sponsored enterprise (GSEs) or Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) in the normal course of business and primarily receives RMBS in exchange. Substantially all of these securities are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and are typically sold shortly after receipt.
(2) A majority of the first-lien residential mortgage loans securitized are initially classified as LHFS and accounted for under the fair value option. Gains recognized on these LHFS prior to securitization, which totaled $ 40 million and $ 73 million, net of hedges, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $ 34 million and $ 61 million for the same periods in 2020, are not included in the table above.
(3) 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. The Corporation may also repurchase loans from securitization trusts to perform modifications. Repurchased loans include FHA-insured mortgages collateralizing GNMA securities.
The Corporation recognizes consumer MSRs from the sale or securitization of consumer real estate loans. The unpaid principal balance of loans serviced for investors, including residential mortgage and home equity loans, totaled $ 138.7 billion and $ 183.4 billion at June 30, 2021 and 2020. Servicing fee and ancillary fee income on serviced loans was $ 104 million and $ 217 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $ 124 million and $ 252 million for the same periods in 2020. Servicing advances on serviced loans, including loans serviced for others and loans held for investment, were $ 2.1 billion and $ 2.2 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. For more information on MSRs, see Note 14 – Fair Value Measurements .

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Corporation completed the sale of $ 9.3 billion of consumer real estate loans through GNMA loan securitizations. As part of the securitizations, the Corporation retained $ 8.4 billion of mortgage-backed securities, which are classified as debt securities carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Total gains on loan sales of $ 704 million were recorded in other income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
The following table summarizes select information related to first-lien mortgage securitization trusts in which the Corporation held a variable interest at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

(1) For unconsolidated home equity loan VIEs, the maximum loss exposure includes outstanding trust certificates issued by trusts in rapid amortization, net of recorded reserves. For both consolidated and unconsolidated home equity loan VIEs, the maximum loss exposure excludes the reserve for representations and warranties obligations and corporate guarantees. For more information, see Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies .
(2) At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, loans and leases in the consolidated credit card trust included $ 3.0 billion and $ 7.6 billion of seller’s interest.
(3) The retained senior securities were valued using quoted market prices or observable market inputs (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy).
Home Equity Loans
The Corporation retains interests, primarily senior securities, in home equity securitization trusts to which it transferred home equity loans. In addition, the Corporation may be obligated to provide subordinate funding to the trusts during a rapid
amortization event. This obligation is included in the maximum loss exposure in the table above. The charges that will ultimately be recorded as a result of the rapid amortization events depend on the undrawn portion of the home equity lines
77 Bank of America



of credit, performance of the loans, the amount of subsequent draws and the timing of related cash flows.
Credit Card Securitizations
The Corporation securitizes originated and purchased credit card loans. The Corporation’s continuing involvement with the securitization trust includes servicing the receivables, retaining an undivided interest (seller’s interest) in the receivables, and holding certain retained interests, including subordinate interests, in accrued interest and fees on the securitized receivables and cash reserve accounts.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were $ 1.0 billion of new senior debt securities issued to third-party investors from the credit card securitization trust. No new senior debt securities were issued to third-party investors from the credit card securitization trust during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation held subordinate securities issued by the credit card securitization trust with a notional principal amount of $ 6.6 billion and $ 6.8 billion. These securities serve as a form of credit enhancement to the senior debt securities and have a stated interest rate of zero percent. There were $ 161 million of these subordinate securities issued by the credit card securitization trust during the six months ended June 30, 2021. No subordinate securities were issued by the credit card securitization trust during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Resecuritization Trusts
The Corporation transfers securities, typically MBS, into resecuritization VIEs generally at the request of customers seeking securities with specific characteristics. Generally, there are no significant ongoing activities performed in a resecuritization trust, and no single investor has the unilateral ability to liquidate the trust.
The Corporation resecuritized $ 5.9 billion and $ 14.7 billion of securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $ 10.7 billion and $ 18.1 billion for the same periods in 2020. Securities transferred into resecuritization VIEs were measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded
in market making and similar activities prior to the resecuritization and, accordingly, no gain or loss on sale was recorded. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, resecuritization proceeds included securities with an initial fair value of $ 233 million and $ 519 million compared to $ 4.4 billion and $ 4.9 billion, of which substantially all of the securities in the current-year period were classified as trading account assets. Of the securities received as resecuritization proceeds during the three months ended June 30, 2020, $ 654 million, $ 2.1 billion and $ 1.7 billion were classified as trading account assets, debt securities carried at fair value and HTM securities, respectively. Of the securities received as resecuritization proceeds during the six months ended June 30, 2020, $ 1.2 billion, $ 2.1 billion and $ 1.7 billion were classified as trading account assets, debt securities carried at fair value and HTM securities, respectively. Substantially all of the trading account securities carried at fair value were categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Municipal Bond Trusts
The Corporation administers municipal bond trusts that hold highly-rated, long-term, fixed-rate municipal bonds. The trusts obtain financing by issuing floating-rate trust certificates that reprice on a weekly or other short-term basis to third-party investors.
The Corporation’s liquidity commitments to unconsolidated municipal bond trusts, including those for which the Corporation was transferor, totaled $ 3.7 billion and $ 3.5 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The weighted-average remaining life of bonds held in the trusts at June 30, 2021 was 6.5 years. There were no significant write-downs or downgrades of assets or issuers during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Customer VIEs
Customer VIEs include credit-linked, equity-linked and commodity-linked note VIEs, repackaging VIEs and asset acquisition VIEs, which are typically created on behalf of customers who wish to obtain market or credit exposure to a specific company, index, commodity or financial instrument.

The Corporation’s maximum loss exposure to consolidated and unconsolidated customer VIEs totaled $ 2.7 billion and $ 2.3 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, including the notional amount of 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 VIEs.
Bank of America 78


Collateralized Debt Obligation VIEs
The Corporation receives fees for structuring CDO VIEs, which hold diversified pools of fixed-income securities, typically corporate debt or ABS, which the CDO VIEs fund by issuing multiple tranches of debt and equity securities. CDOs are generally managed by third-party portfolio managers. The Corporation typically transfers assets to these CDOs, holds securities issued by the CDOs and may be a derivative counterparty to the CDOs. The Corporation’s maximum loss exposure to consolidated and unconsolidated CDOs totaled $ 256 million and $ 298 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Investment VIEs
The Corporation sponsors, invests in or provides financing, which may be in connection with the sale of assets, to a variety of investment VIEs that hold loans, real estate, debt securities or other financial instruments and are designed to provide the desired investment profile to investors or the Corporation. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation’s consolidated investment VIEs had total assets of $ 764 million and $ 494 million. The Corporation also held investments in unconsolidated VIEs with total assets of $ 6.6 billion and $ 5.4 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Corporation’s maximum loss exposure associated with both consolidated and unconsolidated investment VIEs totaled $ 1.9 billion and $ 1.5 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 comprised primarily of on-balance sheet assets less non-recourse liabilities.
Leveraged Lease Trusts
The Corporation’s net investment in consolidated leveraged lease trusts totaled $ 1.6 billion and $ 1.7 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. 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.
Tax Credit VIEs
The Corporation holds investments in unconsolidated limited partnerships and similar entities that construct, own and operate affordable housing, wind and solar projects. An unrelated third party is typically the general partner or managing member and has control over the significant activities of the VIE. The Corporation earns a return primarily through the receipt of tax credits allocated to the projects. The maximum loss exposure included in the Other VIEs table was $ 22.8 billion and $ 22.0 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Corporation’s risk of loss is generally mitigated by policies requiring that the project qualify for the expected tax credits prior to making its investment.
The Corporation’s investments in affordable housing partnerships, which are reported in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, totaled $ 11.7 billion and $ 11.2 billion, including unfunded commitments to provide capital contributions of $ 5.3 billion and $ 5.0 billion, at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The unfunded commitments are expected to be paid over the next five years . The Corporation recognized tax credits and other tax benefits from investments in affordable housing partnerships of $ 334 million and $ 727 million and reported pretax losses in other income of $ 279
million and $ 555 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. For the same periods in 2020, the Corporation recognized tax credits and other tax benefits of $ 342 million and $ 610 million and reported pretax losses in other income of $ 255 million and $ 527 million. These tax credits are recognized as part of the Corporation’s annual effective tax rate used to determine tax expense in a given quarter. The Corporation may be asked to invest additional amounts to support a troubled affordable housing project. Such additional investments have not been and are not expected to be significant.

NOTE 10 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 Consolidated Balance Sheet. For more information on commitments and contingencies, see Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 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 (SBLCs) and commercial letters of credit to meet the financing needs of its customers. The following table includes the notional amount of unfunded legally binding lending commitments net of amounts
distributed (i.e., syndicated or participated) to other financial institutions. The distributed amounts were $ 10.9 billion and $ 10.5 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The carrying value of these commitments at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, excluding commitments accounted for under the fair value option, was $ 1.7 billion and $ 1.9 billion, which primarily related to the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The carrying value of these commitments is classified in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Legally binding commitments to extend credit generally have specified rates and maturities. Certain of these commitments have adverse change clauses that help to protect the Corporation against deterioration in the borrower’s ability to pay.
The following table includes the notional amount of commitments of $ 5.3 billion and $ 4.0 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 that are accounted for under the fair value option. However, the table excludes the cumulative net fair value for these commitments of $ 103 million and $ 99 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, which is classified in accrued expenses and other liabilities. For more information regarding the Corporation’s loan commitments accounted for under the fair value option, see Note 15 – Fair Value Option.

Other Commitments
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation had commitments to purchase loans (e.g., residential mortgage and commercial real estate) of $ 64 million and $ 93 million, which upon settlement will be included in trading account assets, loans or LHFS, and commitments to purchase commercial loans of $ 430 million and $ 645 million, which upon settlement will be included in trading account assets.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation had commitments to purchase commodities, primarily liquefied natural gas, of $ 616 million and $ 582 million, which upon settlement will be included in trading account assets.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation had commitments to enter into resale and forward-dated resale and securities borrowing agreements of $ 127.8 billion and $ 66.5 billion, and commitments to enter into forward-dated repurchase and securities lending agreements of $ 67.5 billion and $ 32.1 billion. These commitments generally expire within the next 12 months.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation had a commitment to originate or purchase up to $ 4.0 billion and $ 3.9 billion on a rolling 12-month basis, of auto loans and leases from a strategic partner. This commitment extends through November 2022 and can be terminated with 12 months prior notice.
Other Guarantees
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. At both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the notional amount of these guarantees totaled $ 6.3 billion and $ 7.1 billion. At both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation’s maximum exposure related to these guarantees totaled $ 934 million and $ 1.1 billion, with estimated maturity dates between 2033 and 2039.
Merchant Services
The Corporation in its role as merchant acquirer or as a sponsor of other merchant acquirers may be held liable for any reversed charges that cannot be collected from the merchants, due to, among other things, merchant fraud or insolvency. If charges are properly reversed after a purchase and cannot be collected from either the merchants or merchant acquirers, the Corporation may be held liable for these reversed charges. The ability to reverse a charge is primarily governed by the applicable regulatory and card network rules, which include, but are not limited to, the type of charge, type of payment used and time limits. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Corporation processed an aggregate purchase volume of $ 411.8 billion. The Corporation’s risk in this area primarily relates to circumstances where a cardholder has purchased goods or services for future delivery. The Corporation mitigates this risk by requiring cash deposits, guarantees, letters of credit or other types of collateral from certain merchants. The Corporation’s reserves for contingent losses and the losses incurred related to the merchant processing activity were not significant. The Corporation continues to monitor its exposure in this area due to the potential economic impacts of the pandemic.
Representations and Warranties Obligations and Corporate Guarantees
For more information on representations and warranties obligations and corporate guarantees, see Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K .
The reserve for representations and warranties obligations and corporate guarantees was $ 1.2 billion and $ 1.3 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and the related provision is included in other
83 Bank of America



income in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The representations and warranties reserve represents the Corporation’s best estimate of probable incurred losses, is based on its experience in previous negotiations, and is subject to judgment, a variety of assumptions, and known or unknown uncertainties. Future representations and warranties losses may occur in excess of the amounts recorded for these exposures; however, the Corporation does not expect such amounts to be material to the Corporation's financial condition and liquidity. See Litigation and Regulatory Matters below for the Corporation's combined range of possible loss in excess of the reserve for representations and warranties and the accrued liability for litigation.
Fixed Income Clearing Corporation Sponsored Member Repo Program
The Corporation acts as a sponsoring member in a repo program whereby the Corporation clears certain eligible resale and repurchase agreements through the Government Securities Division of the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation on behalf of clients that are sponsored members in accordance with the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation’s rules. As part of this program, the Corporation guarantees the payment and performance of its sponsored members to the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation. The Corporation’s guarantee obligation is secured by a security interest in cash or high-quality securities collateral placed by clients with the clearinghouse and therefore, the potential for the Corporation to incur significant losses under this arrangement is remote. The Corporation’s maximum potential exposure, without taking into consideration the related collateral, was $ 13.6 billion and $ 22.5 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Other Guarantees
The Corporation has entered into additional guarantee agreements and commitments, including sold risk participation swaps, liquidity facilities, lease-end obligation agreements, partial credit guarantees on certain leases, real estate joint venture guarantees, divested business commitments and sold put options that require gross settlement. The maximum potential future payments under these agreements are approximately $ 9.2 billion and $ 8.8 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The estimated maturity dates of these obligations extend up to 2049. The Corporation has made no material payments under these guarantees. For more information on maximum potential future payments under VIE-related liquidity commitments, see Note 6 – Securitizations and Other Variable Interest Entities .
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.

Guarantees of Certain Long-term Debt
The Corporation, as the parent company, fully and unconditionally guarantees the securities issued by BofA Finance LLC, a consolidated finance subsidiary of the Corporation, and effectively provides for the full and unconditional guarantee of trust securities issued by certain statutory trust companies that are 100 percent owned finance subsidiaries of the Corporation.
Litigation and Regulatory Matters
The following disclosures supplement the disclosure in Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the prior commitments and contingencies disclosure).
In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are routinely defendants in or parties to many pending and threatened legal, regulatory and governmental actions and proceedings. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such 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 the eventual outcome of the pending matters, timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters, or eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each pending matter.
As a matter develops, the Corporation, in conjunction with any outside counsel handling the matter, evaluates whether such matter presents a loss contingency that is probable and estimable, and, for the matter described below and the matters disclosed in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosure, whether a loss in excess of any accrued liability is reasonably possible in future periods. Once the loss contingency is deemed to be both probable and estimable, the Corporation will establish an accrued liability 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 and external legal service providers, litigation-related expense of $ 55 million and $ 89 million was recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $ 57 million and $ 81 million for the same periods in 2020.
For any matter disclosed in this Note and in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosure, for which a loss in future periods is reasonably possible and estimable (whether in excess of an accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability) and for representations and warranties exposures, the Corporation’s estimated range of possible loss is $ 0 to $ 1.3 billion in excess of the accrued liability, if any, as of June 30, 2021.
The accrued liability and estimated range of possible loss are based upon currently available information and subject to significant judgment, a variety of assumptions and known and
Bank of America 84


unknown uncertainties. The matters underlying the accrued liability and estimated range of possible loss are unpredictable and may change from time to time, and actual losses may vary significantly from the current estimate and accrual. The estimated range of possible loss does not represent the Corporation’s maximum loss exposure.
Information is provided below, or in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosure regarding the nature of the litigation and, where specified, associated claimed damages. Based on current knowledge, and taking into account accrued liabilities, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending matters, including the matters described below, and in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosure, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition or liquidity of the Corporation. However, in light of the significant judgment, variety of assumptions and uncertainties involved in those matters, some of which are beyond the Corporation’s control, and the very large or indeterminate damages sought in some of those matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to the Corporation’s business or results of operations for any particular reporting period, or cause significant reputational harm.

NOTE 14 Fair Value Measurements
Under applicable accounting standards, 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 under applicable accounting standards and conducts a review of fair value hierarchy classifications on a quarterly basis. Transfers into or out of fair value hierarchy classifications are made if the significant inputs used in the financial models measuring the fair values of the assets and liabilities become unobservable or observable in the current marketplace. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no changes to valuation approaches or techniques that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Bank of America 86

The following tables present a reconciliation of all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, including net realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in earnings and accumulated OCI. Transfers into Level 3 occur primarily due to
decreased price observability, and transfers out of Level 3 occur primarily due to increased price observability. Transfers occur on a regular basis for long-term debt instruments due to changes in the impact of unobservable inputs on the value of the embedded derivative in relation to the instrument as a whole.

(1) For loans and securities, structured liabilities and net derivative assets (liabilities), the weighted average is calculated based upon the absolute fair value of the instruments.
(2) The categories are aggregated based upon product type which differs from financial statement classification. The following is a reconciliation to the line items in the table on page 87: Trading account assets – Corporate securities, trading loans and other of $ 1.8 billion, Trading account assets – Non-U.S. sovereign debt of $ 414 million, Trading account assets – Mortgage trading loans, MBS and ABS of $ 1.5 billion, AFS debt securities of $ 341 million, Other debt securities carried at fair value - Non-agency residential of $ 281 million, Other assets, including MSRs, of $ 1.8 billion, Loans and leases of $ 857 million and LHFS of $ 263 million.
(3) Includes models such as Monte Carlo simulation and Black-Scholes.
(4) Includes models such as Monte Carlo simulation, Black-Scholes and other methods that model the joint dynamics of interest, inflation and foreign exchange rates.
(5) The weighted-average life is a product of changes in market rates of interest, prepayment rates and other model and cash flow assumptions.

Glossary
Alt-A Mortgage A type of U.S. mortgage that is considered riskier than A-paper, or “prime,” and less risky than “subprime,” the riskiest category. Typically, Alt-A mortgages are characterized by borrowers with less than full documentation, lower credit scores and higher LTVs.
Assets Under Management (AUM) – The total market value of assets under the investment advisory and/or 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.
Banking Book – All on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments of the Corporation except for those positions that are held for trading purposes.
Brokerage and Other Assets – Non-discretionary client assets which are held in brokerage accounts or held for safekeeping.
Committed Credit Exposure – 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.
Credit Derivatives – Contractual agreements that provide protection against a specified credit event on one or more referenced obligations.
Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) – A portfolio adjustment required to properly reflect the counterparty credit risk exposure as part of the fair value of derivative instruments.
Debit Valuation Adjustment (DVA) – A portfolio adjustment required to properly reflect the Corporation’s own credit risk exposure as part of the fair value of derivative instruments and/or structured liabilities.
Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA) – A portfolio adjustment required to include funding costs on uncollateralized derivatives and derivatives where the Corporation is not permitted to use the collateral it receives.
Interest Rate Lock Commitment (IRLC) – Commitment with a loan applicant in which the loan terms 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. LTV is calculated as the outstanding carrying value of the loan divided by the estimated value of the property securing the loan.
Margin Receivable An extension of credit secured by eligible securities in certain brokerage accounts.
Matched Book – Repurchase and resale agreements or securities borrowed and loaned transactions where the overall asset and liability position is similar in size and/or maturity. Generally, these are entered into to accommodate customers where the Corporation earns the interest rate spread.
Mortgage Servicing Rights (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.
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.
Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) – A framework established by the U.S. banking regulators requiring banks to maintain certain levels of regulatory capital ratios, comprised of five categories of capitalization: “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” and “critically undercapitalized.” Insured depository institutions that fail to meet certain of these capital levels are subject to increasingly strict limits on their activities, including their ability to make capital distributions, pay management compensation, grow assets and take other actions.
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.
Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) – Loans whose contractual terms have been restructured in a manner that grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. Certain consumer loans for which a binding offer to restructure has been extended are also classified as TDRs.
Value-at-Risk (VaR) – VaR is a model that 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 loss the portfolio is expected to experience with a given confidence level based on historical data. A VaR model is an effective tool in estimating ranges of potential gains and losses on our trading portfolios.
