92 billion or 5% from $133.30 billion at December 31, 2023, due to loan growth in each of our segments. Loan growth in the General Bank segment was primarily related to business and commercial loans in our Branch Network. Loan growth in the Commercial Bank segment was mainly in the technology media and telecommunications (“TMT”) and the healthcare industry verticals. Loan growth in the SVB Commercial segment was concentrated in the global fund banking portfolio. 

•ALLL at December 31, 2024 was $1.68 billion, representing a decrease of $71 million from $1.75 billion at December 31, 2023, mainly due to changes in loan mix, improvements in the macroeconomic forecast, and decreases in specific reserves for individually evaluated loans. The mix shift was mostly within SVB loans and reflected increases in the global fund banking portfolio, which has a lower loss rate relative to the rest of our portfolios, and decreases in the investor dependent portfolios, which have higher loss rates. These decreases were partially offset by increases related to loan growth and a $20 million loan loss reserve for Helene. 

•Investment securities at December 31, 2024 were $44.09 billion, an increase of $14.09 billion or 47% from $30.00 billion at December 31, 2023, primarily due to purchases of short-duration U.S. agency mortgage-backed and U.S. Treasury investment securities, partially offset by payments and maturities.

•Deposits at December 31, 2024 were $155.23 billion, an increase of $9.38 billion or 6% from $145.85 billion at December 31, 2023, reflecting deposit growth in our Branch Network in the General Bank segment, the Direct Bank in Corporate, and the SVB Commercial segment. 

•Borrowings at December 31, 2024 were $37.05 billion, a decrease of $603 million from $37.65 billion at December 31, 2023, mostly due to redemptions of our senior unsecured borrowings and subordinated debentures.
