Missed
Payments
. We face the risk that customers will miss
payments. Loan charge-offs are generally preceded by missed payments or
other indications of worsening financial condition. Our reported
delinquency levels measure these trends. Customers may be more likely to
miss payments in the event of an economic downturn. In addition, we face
the risk that consumer and commercial customer behavior may change,
causing a long-term rise in delinquencies and
charge-offs;
|
|
|
·
|
Collateral
. We
face the risk that collateral, when we have it, will be insufficient to
compensate us for loan losses. When customers default on their loans and
we have collateral, we attempt to seize it. However, the value of the
collateral may not be sufficient to compensate us for the amount of the
unpaid loan and we may be unsuccessful in recovering the remaining balance
from our customers. Particularly with respect to our commercial lending
and mortgage activities, decreases in real estate values could adversely
affect the value of property used as collateral for our loans and
investments. Thus, the recovery of such property could be insufficient to
compensate us for the value of these
loans;
|
|
|
·
|
Estimates of future
losses
. We face the risk that we may underestimate our
future losses and fail to hold a loan loss allowance sufficient to account
for these losses. Incorrect assumptions could lead to material
underestimates of future losses and inadequate allowance for loan losses.
In addition, our estimate of future losses impacts the amount of reserves
we build to account for those losses. The build or release of reserves
impacts our current financial
results.
