 losses, which includes the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments, are charged to current operations. Loans that are determined to be uncollectible are charged-off against the allowance for loan losses once that determination is made.While management uses available information to make allowance evaluations, adjustments to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic and other conditions or changes in accounting guidance. The OCC, as an integral part of its examination processes, periodically reviews the allowance for credit losses. The OCC may require the recognition of adjustments to the allowance for credit losses based on its judgment of information available to it as of the time of its examinations. To the extent the OCC’s estimates differ from management’s estimates, additional provisions to the allowance for credit losses may be required as of the time of its examination. As part of the Bank’s risk management program, an independent review is performed on the loan portfolio, which supplements management’s assessment of the loan portfolio and the allowance for credit losses. The result of the independent review is reported directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.Under ASC 326, the allowance for credit losses ("ACL") is measured on a pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist and is maintained at an amount which management believes is a current estimate of the expected credit losses for the full life of the relevant pool of loans and related unfunded lending commitments. The Company applies the practical expedient that permits the exclusion of the accrued interest receivable balance from amortized cost basis of financing receivables when measuring credit losses under ASC 326. The Company's ACL calculation estimates loan losses using the discounted cash flow method for all loan pools, except for the Company's credit card portfolio. Expected losses are calculated using relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of future cash flows. Loan losses for the credit card portfolio are estimated using the remaining life method due to the limited complexity and size of this portfolio. The discounted cash flow analysis uses loan-level term information (e.g., maturity date, payment amount, interest rate, etc.) and pool-level assumptions (e.g., default rates, prepayment speeds, etc.) to produce expected future cash flows for the full life of every loan in the pool. The expected future cash flows are discounted and results are then aggregated to produce a net present value of the pool and ultimately the ACL requirement for the pool. The remaining life method applies a loss rate to a given pool of loans over the estimated remaining life of the given pool. The
