FDIC Quarterly 1 2009, Volume 3, No. 4

Quarterly Banking Profile Third Quarter 2009

Earnings Register Modest Improvement

Rising loan-loss provisions continued to dominate 

industry results, but growth in operating revenues, 

combined with appreciation in securities values, helped 

the industry post an aggregate net profit. Insured institutions earned $2.8 billion in net income in the third 

quarter of 2009, more than three times the $879 million 

they earned a year earlier and an improvement over the 

$4.3 billion net loss posted in the second quarter of 

2009. Growth in net interest income, lower realized 

losses on securities and other assets, higher noninterest 

income, and lower noninterest expenses, all contributed 

to the year-over-year increase in net income. Only 43 

percent of all institutions reported higher quarterly 

earnings compared to a year ago, but this is the highest 

proportion reporting improved earnings in the past six 

quarters. More than one in four institutions (26.5 

percent) was unprofitable in the third quarter, up 

slightly from 24.6 percent a year ago.

Net Interest Margin Rises to Four-Year High

Net interest income was $4.6 billion (4.8 percent) higher 

than in the third quarter of 2008. The average net interest margin (NIM) in the third quarter was 3.51 percent, 

the highest quarterly average since the third quarter of 

2005. Almost two-thirds of all institutions (62.1 percent) 

reported higher NIMs than in the second quarter, but 

only 42.2 percent registered year-over-year NIM improvement. Realized losses on securities and other assets 

totaled $4.1 billion, which was $3.8 billion less than the 

$7.9 billion in losses the industry experienced a year 

earlier. Noninterest income was $4.0 billion (6.8 percent) 

higher, as net gains on loan sales were up by $2.7 billion 

and servicing fees rose by $1.9 billion (45.8 percent). 

Total noninterest expense was $1.6 billion (1.7 percent) 

below the level of a year earlier, the first time since the 

fourth quarter of 2006 that the industry has experienced a 

year-over-year decline in quarterly noninterest expense. 

Lower expenses for goodwill impairment and other intangible asset charges (down $1.2 billion, or 23.7 percent) 

were chiefly responsible for the decline in total noninterest expenses, but expenses for premises and fixed assets 

were lower as well, falling by $230 million (2.0 percent).

Quarterly Change in Noncurrent Loans

Quarterly Net Charge-Offs

Loss Provisions Surpass $60 Billion for Fourth 

Quarter in a Row

Provisions for loan and lease losses totaled $62.5 billion, 

marking the fourth consecutive quarter that industry 

provisions have exceeded $60 billion. The third quarter 

total was $11.3 billion (22.2 percent) higher than a 

year earlier, but it was $4.8 billion (7.1 percent) less 

than the amount that insured institutions set aside in 

the second quarter. It was also the smallest year-overyear increase in quarterly loss provisions in the past 

eight quarters. Almost two out of three institutions 

(62.6 percent) increased their loss provisions over yearearlier levels.

Loan Losses Remain High

Net charge-offs continued to rise, registering a yearover-year increase for an 11th consecutive quarter. 

Insured institutions charged off $50.8 billion (net) in 

the quarter, an increase of $22.6 billion (80.5 percent) 

compared to the third quarter of 2008. Net charge-offs 

were higher, year-over-year, at 60 percent of insured 

institutions. The annualized net charge-off rate rose to 

2.71 percent, from 1.43 percent a year earlier and 2.56 

percent in the second quarter. This is the highest annualized net charge-off rate in any quarter since insured 

institutions began reporting quarterly income and 

expenses in 1984, and it marks the third time in the 

past four quarters that the net charge-off rate has 

reached a new high. The year-over-year increase in 

charge-offs was led by loans to commercial and industrial (C&I) borrowers, but all major loan categories had 

sizable increases in charge-offs. Net charge-offs of C&I 

loans were $4.6 billion (117.5 percent) higher than a 

year ago. Charge-offs of credit card loans were $4.4 

billion (78.2 percent) higher, residential mortgage 

charge-offs were up by $3.7 billion (63.4 percent), 

charge-offs of real estate construction and development 

(C&D) loans rose by $3.1 billion (68.1 percent), and 

charge-offs of home equity lines of credit were $2.2 

billion (78.4 percent) higher.

Growth in Noncurrent Loans Slows

The amount of loans that were noncurrent (90 days or 

more past due or in nonaccrual status) also continued 

to rise. Noncurrent loans and leases increased by 

$34.7 billion (10.5 percent) in the third quarter, to 

$366.6 billion, or 4.94 percent of all loans and leases, 

the highest noncurrent rate registered in the 26 years 

that insured institutions have reported noncurrent loan 

data. Noncurrent residential mortgage loans increased 

by $19.0 billion (13.9 percent), noncurrent C&I loans 

rose by $7.3 billion (19.2 percent), and noncurrent real 

estate loans secured by nonfarm nonresidential real 

estate properties increased by $5.7 billion (18.2 

percent). The increase in noncurrent loans was the 

smallest in the past four quarters, as the rate of growth 

in noncurrent loans slowed for the second quarter in 

a row.

Reserve Coverage Continues to Erode

In the face of the persistent rise in troubled loans, 

insured institutions continued to build their loan-loss 

reserves. The industry set aside $11.7 billion more in

Quarterly Banking Profile

Quarterly Decline in Loan Balances Is Largest 

on Record

Total assets of insured institutions fell for a third 

consecutive quarter. The $54.3 billion (0.4 percent) 

decline followed a $237.9 billion decrease in industry 

assets in the second quarter and a $303.2 billion drop in 

the first quarter. The decline in assets was led by falling 

loan balances. Total loan and lease balances declined 

by $210.4 billion (2.8 percent) during the quarter. This 

is the largest percentage decline in loan balances in any 

quarter since insured institutions began reporting quarterly results in 1984. C&I loans fell by $89.1 billion 

(6.5 percent), residential mortgage loan balances 

declined by $83.7 billion (4.2 percent), and real estate 

C&D loans dropped by $43.6 billion (8.1 percent). 

The reduction in loan balances was partially offset by 

increased balances at Federal Reserve banks (up by 

$142.4 billion, or 36.7 percent) and by a $59.7 billion 

(2.6 percent) increase in securities. Banks increased 

their holdings of U.S. Treasury securities by $28.6 

billion (49.3 percent) during the quarter. Much of the 

increase in other securities balances reflected higher 

market values for available-for-sale securities.

Reliance on Deposit Funding Increases

Total deposits increased by $79.8 billion (0.9 percent), 

as insured institutions continued to reduce their reliance on nondeposit funding sources. Deposits in 

domestic offices fell by $2.0 billion, with non-interestbearing deposits registering a $17.7 billion (1.2 percent) 

loan-loss provisions than it charged off in the third 

quarter, contributing to a $9.2 billion (4.4 percent) 

increase in total reserves. This was the smallest quarterly increase in reserves in the past eight quarters, but 

it lifted the industry’s ratio of reserves to total loans and 

leases from 2.77 percent to 2.97 percent. However, 

growth in reserves continued to lag the rise in noncurrent loans, and the industry’s ratio of reserves to 

noncurrent loans declined for a 14th consecutive quarter, from 63.6 percent to 60.1 percent.

Rising Securities Values Boost Equity Capital

The industry’s total bank equity capital (excluding 

minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries) increased 

by $40.2 billion (2.9 percent) in the third quarter. Most 

of the increase was a result of appreciation in the values 

of securities and other investments. Accumulated other 

comprehensive income, which includes unrealized 

gains and losses on securities held for sale, increased by 

$30.5 billion during the quarter. Tier 1 leverage capital, 

which does not include other comprehensive income, 

increased by $15.6 billion (1.4 percent). The industry’s 

equity to assets ratio increased from 10.55 percent to 

10.90 percent during the quarter. The average regulatory capital ratios for the industry (tier 1 leverage ratio, 

tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratio) all improved during the quarter as well, and 

are now at their highest levels in the 19 years since 

current risk-based capital standards were enacted.

absorbed by mergers during the quarter, while 50 institutions failed. This is the largest number of failures in a 

quarter since the fourth quarter of 1992, when 55 

insured institutions failed. Only three insured institutions were chartered in the quarter, the smallest quarterly total since World War II. The number of insured 

institutions on the FDIC’s “Problem List” rose from 

416 to 552 during the quarter, and total assets of “problem” institutions increased from $299.8 billion to 

$345.9 billion. Both the number and assets of “problem” institutions are now at the highest level since the 

end of 1993.

decline. Deposits in foreign offices increased by $81.9 

billion (5.6 percent), following a $51.0 billion increase 

in the second quarter. Nondeposit liabilities declined by 

$176.1 billion (6.2 percent), including a $59 billion 

(9.3 percent) decline in Federal Home Loan Bank 

borrowings and an $86.6 billion (23.8 percent) decline 

in other short-term borrowings by Call reporters. 

At the end of September, deposits funded 68.7 percent 

of total industry assets, the highest proportion since 

June 30, 1997.

Only Three New Charters Were Added in the 

Third Quarter

The number of insured institutions reporting financial 

results fell to 8,099 in the third quarter, from 8,195 in 

the second quarter. Forty-seven institutions were

FDIC Quarterly 14 2009, Volume 3, No. 4

Total assets of the nation’s 8,099 FDIC-insured 

commercial banks and savings institutions decreased by 

$54.3 billion (0.4 percent) during the third quarter of 

2009. Total deposits increased by $79.8 billion (0.9 

percent) during the quarter, primarily due to activity in 

foreign offices, which was up $81.9 billion (5.6 

percent). This was the largest increase in foreign office 

deposits since the third quarter of 2007 when these 

deposits increased by $96.8 billion (7.2 percent). 

Domestic deposits were almost unchanged in the third 

quarter, declining by $2.0 billion (0.03 percent) from 

the previous quarter. Domestic non-interest-bearing 

deposits decreased by $17.7 billion (1.2 percent), and 

domestic time deposits decreased by $136.9 billion (5.2 

percent). Savings deposits and interest-bearing checking accounts increased by $152.5 billion (4.4 percent). 

Over the past 12 months, the share of assets funded by 

domestic deposits rose from 53.2 percent to 57.0 

percent, and the share funded by foreign office deposits 

increased from 11.1 percent to 11.7 percent. During the 

same period, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) 

advances as a percentage of total assets declined from 

6.7 percent to 4.3 percent, the smallest percentage on 

record (2001 to present). FHLB advances decreased by 

$335.9 billion (36.8 percent) over the 12 months 

ending September 30, 2009.

Since the second quarter of 2009, the portion of 

brokered deposits exceeding 10 percent of an institution’s domestic deposits has been included in the 

formula used to price an institution’s deposit insurance.1

Brokered deposits decreased by $73.4 billion (10.0 

1

 For an institution in Risk Category I, the initial base assessment rate 

is adjusted using the adjusted brokered deposit ratio. This ratio will 

exceed zero if an institution’s brokered deposits are greater than 10 

percent of its domestic deposits and its total assets are more than 40 

percent greater than they were four years previously. Certain reciprocal brokered deposits are excluded from the calculation of the adjusted 

brokered deposit ratio. For an institution in any other risk category, the 

initial base assessment rate is increased if the institution’s ratio of 

brokered deposits to domestic deposits is greater than 10 percent. 

Reciprocal brokered deposits are included in the amount of brokered 

deposits for purposes of computing this ratio.

percent) during the third quarter, the sharpest decline 

since the first quarter of 1991 when they decreased by 

$11.9 billion (11.0 percent). Reciprocal brokered 

deposits increased by $1.4 billion (4.1 percent) to 

$36.1 billion during the three months ending September 30, 2009.

On May 20, 2009, the President signed the Helping 

Families Save Their Homes Act of 2009, which 

extended the temporary deposit insurance coverage 

limit increase to $250,000 for deposits other than retirement accounts (from the permanent limit of $100,000) 

through the end of 2013. The legislation also eliminated the provision in the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 that prevented the FDIC from 

considering this temporary increase in deposit insurance 

coverage for purposes of setting deposit insurance assessments. Beginning September 30, 2009, insured deposit 

estimates are based on the $250,000 coverage limit. 

Estimated insured deposits at all FDIC-insured institutions (based on $250,000 coverage) increased by $491.5 

billion (10.2 percent) in the third quarter of 2009.

The Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) decreased by $18.6 

billion during the third quarter to a negative $8.2 

billion (unaudited) primarily because of $21.7 billion in 

additional provisions for bank failures. Also, unrealized 

losses on available-for-sale securities, combined with 

operating expenses, reduced the fund by $1.1 billion. 

Accrued assessment income added $3.0 billion to the 

fund during the quarter, and interest earned, combined 

with realized gains from sale of securities and surcharges 

from the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program, 

added $1.2 billion.

Fifty insured institutions with combined assets of $68.8 

billion failed during the third quarter of 2009, the largest number since the second quarter of 1990 when 65 

insured institutions failed. Ninety-five insured institutions with combined assets of $104.7 billion failed 

during the first three quarters of 2009, at a currently 

estimated cost to the DIF of $25.0 billion. The DIF’s

however, an institution’s total annual base assessment 

rate for purposes of estimating the institution’s assessment for 2011 and 2012 will be increased by 3 basis 

points. For purposes of calculating the amount that an 

institution will prepay on December 30, 2009, an institution’s third quarter 2009 assessment base will be 

increased quarterly at a 5 percent annual growth rate 

through the end of 2012. The FDIC will begin to draw 

down an institution’s prepaid assessments on March 30, 

2010, representing payment for the regular quarterly 

risk-based assessment for the fourth quarter of 2009.

reserve ratio was negative 0.16 percent on September 

30, 2009, down from 0.22 percent on June 30, 2009, 

and 0.76 percent one year ago. The September 30, 

2009, reserve ratio is the lowest reserve ratio for a 

combined bank and thrift insurance fund since June 30, 

1992, when the ratio was negative 0.20 percent.

Prepaid Assessments

On November 12, 2009, the FDIC adopted a final rule 

amending the assessment regulations to require insured 

depository institutions to prepay their quarterly riskbased assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 and for 

all of 2010, 2011, and 2012 on December 30, 2009, 

along with each institution’s risk-based assessment for 

the third quarter of 2009. For purposes of estimating an 

institution’s assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 

and for all of 2010, 2011, and 2012 (and calculating the 

amount that an institution will prepay on December 30, 

2009), an institution’s assessment rate will be its total 

base assessment rate in effect on September 30, 20092; 

2

 An institution’s risk-based assessment rate may change during a 

quarter when a new CAMELS rating is transmitted, or a new long-term 

debt-issuer rating is assigned. See 12 CFR 327.4(f). For purposes of 

calculating an institution’s prepaid assessment, the FDIC will use the 

institution’s CAMELS ratings and, where applicable, long-term debtissuer ratings, and the resulting assessment rate in effect on September 30, 2009.

FDIC Responds to Market Disruptions with TLGP

The FDIC Board approved the Temporary Liquidity 

Guarantee Program (TLGP) on October 13, 2008, as 

major disruptions in credit markets blocked access to 

liquidity for financial institutions.1 The TLGP improved 

access to liquidity through the Transaction Account 

Guarantee Program (TAGP), which fully guarantees 

non-interest-bearing transaction deposit accounts above 

$250,000, regardless of dollar amount, and the Debt 

Guarantee Program (DGP), which guarantees eligible 

senior unsecured debt issued by eligible institutions. 

All insured depository institutions are eligible to participate in the TAGP. Institutions eligible for participation 

in the DGP include insured depository institutions, 

U.S. bank holding companies, certain U.S. savings and 

loan holding companies, and other affiliates of insured 

depository institutions that the FDIC designates as 

eligible entities. 

FDIC Extends Transaction Account and Debt 

Guarantee Programs

Although financial markets have improved significantly 

since the fall of 2008, portions of the industry are still 

suffering from recent economic turmoil. To facilitate 

the orderly phase-out of the TLGP, and to continue 

access to FDIC guarantees where they are needed, the 

FDIC Board of Directors (Board) extended both the 

TAGP and the DGP.

On March 17, 2009, the Board voted to extend the deadline for issuance of guaranteed debt from June 30, 2009, 

to October 31, 2009, and extended the expiration date of 

the guarantee to the earlier of maturity of the debt or 

December 31, 2012, from June 30, 2012. The FDIC 

imposed a surcharge on debt issued with a maturity of one 

year or more beginning in the second quarter of 2009.2

1

 The FDIC invoked the systemic risk exception pursuant to section 

141 of the Federal Deposit Improvement Act of 1991, 12 U.S.C 

1823(c)(4) on October 13, 2008. For further information on the TLGP, 

see http://www.fdic.gov/regulations/resources/TLGP/index.html. 2

 See http://www.fdic.gov/news/board/Mar1709rule.pdf. 

A final rule extending the TAGP six months, to June 

30, 2010, was adopted on August 26, 2009. Entities 

currently participating in the program will have an 

opportunity to opt out of the extended program. Depository institutions that remain in the extended program 

will be subject to increased fees that are adjusted to 

reflect the institution’s risk.3

The Board adopted a final rule on October 20, 2009, 

that allows the DGP to expire on October 31, 2009.4

The rule also establishes a limited, six-month guarantee 

facility upon expiration of the DGP. This emergency 

guarantee facility would be available on a case-by-case 

basis to entities participating in the DGP, upon application to the FDIC and with the approval of the Chairman after consultation with the Board. 

Program Funded by Industry Fees and Assessments

The TLGP does not rely on taxpayer funding or the 

Deposit Insurance Fund. Both components of the 

program are paid for by direct user fees. Institutions 

participating in the TAGP provide customers full coverage on non-interest-bearing transaction accounts for an 

annual fee of 10 basis points through year-end 2009. Fees 

for qualifying non-interest-bearing transaction accounts 

guaranteed between January 1, 2010, and June 30, 2010, 

will be based on the participating entity’s risk category 

assignment under the FDIC’s risk-based premium system. 

Annualized fees will be either 15, 20, or 25 basis points, 

depending on an institution’s risk category.

Fees for participation in the DGP depend on the maturity of debt issued and range from 50 to 100 basis points 

(annualized). A surcharge will be imposed on debt 

issued with a maturity of one year or greater after April 

1, 2009. For debt that is not issued under the extension, 

that is, debt that is issued on or before June 30, 2009, 

and matures on or before June 30, 2012, surcharges will 

be 10 basis points (annualized) on debt issued by

percent of that outstanding amount. The cap for FDICinsured institutions that had no outstanding short-term 

senior unsecured debt other than Fed funds is set at 2 

percent of liabilities as of September 30, 2008. Total 

debt outstanding at quarter-end represented 50 percent 

of issuing entities’ total cap. 

$307 Billion in FDIC-Guaranteed Debt Was 

Outstanding at September 30, 2009

Eighty-nine financial entities—57 insured depository 

institutions and 32 bank and thrift holding companies 

and nonbank affiliates—had $307 billion in guaranteed 

debt outstanding at the end of the third quarter. Some 

banking groups issued FDIC-guaranteed debt at both 

the subsidiary and holding company level, but most 

guaranteed debt was issued by holding companies or 

nonbank affiliates of depository institutions. Bank and 

thrift holding companies and nonbank affiliates issued 

81 percent of FDIC-guaranteed debt outstanding at 

September 30, 2009. 

Debt outstanding at September 30 had longer terms at 

issuance, compared to debt outstanding at year-end. 

Slightly more than 2 percent of debt outstanding 

matures in 180 days or less, compared with 49 percent at 

year-end; and 75 percent matures more than two years 

after issuance, compared with 39 percent at December 

31, 2008. Among types of debt instruments, 89 percent 

was in medium-term notes, compared with 44 percent at 

year-end. The share of outstanding debt in commercial 

paper fell to 2 percent from 43 percent at year-end.

All asset and liability figures used in calculating performance 

ratios represent average amounts for the period (beginning-ofperiod amount plus end-of-period amount plus any interim 

periods, divided by the total number of periods). For “poolingof-interest” mergers, the assets of the acquired institution(s) 

are included in average assets since the year-to-date income 

includes the results of all merged institutions. No adjustments 

are made for “purchase accounting” mergers. Growth rates 

represent the percentage change over a 12-month period in 

totals for institutions in the base period to totals for institutions in the current period.

All data are collected and presented based on the location of 

each reporting institution’s main office. Reported data may 

include assets and liabilities located outside of the reporting 

institution’s home state. In addition, institutions may relocate 

across state lines or change their charters, resulting in an 

inter-regional or inter-industry migration, e.g., institutions 

can move their home offices between regions, and savings 

institutions can convert to commercial banks or commercial 

banks may convert to savings institutions.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment

When the fair value of an investment in a debt or equity 

security is less than its cost basis, the impairment is either 

temporary or other-than-temporary. To determine whether 

the impairment is other-than-temporary, an institution must 

apply other pertinent guidance such as paragraph 16 of FASB 

Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt 

and Equity Securities; FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 115-1 

and FAS 124-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary 

Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments; FSP 

FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of 

Other-Than-Temporary Impairments; paragraph 6 of 

Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity 

Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock; 

Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 99-20, 

Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased 

Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests That Continue to Be 

Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets; and FSP 

EITF 99-20-1, Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of 

EITF Issue No. 99-20.

Under FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 issued on April 9, 

2009, if the present value of cash flows expected to be collected on a debt security is less than its amortized cost basis, 

a credit loss exists. In this situation, if an institution does not 

intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not 

that the institution will be required to sell the debt security 

before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any currentperiod credit loss, an other-than-temporary impairment has 

occurred. The amount of the total other-than-temporary 

impairment related to the credit loss must be recognized in 

earnings, but the amount of the total impairment related to 

other factors must be recognized in other comprehensive 

income, net of applicable taxes. Although the debt security 

would be written down to its fair value, its new amortized cost 

basis is the previous amortized cost basis less the other-thantemporary impairment recognized in earnings. In addition, 

if an institution intends to sell a debt security whose fair 

value is less than its amortized costs basis or it is more likely 

than not that the institution will be required to sell the debt

FDIC Quarterly Banking Profile is aggregated for all FDICinsured institutions, both commercial banks and savings institutions. Tables VI-A (Derivatives) and VII-A (Servicing, 

Securitization, and Asset Sales Activities) aggregate information only for insured commercial banks and state-chartered 

savings banks that file quarterly Call Reports. Table VIII-A 

(Trust Services) aggregates Trust asset and income information collected annually from all FDIC-insured institutions. 

Some tables are arrayed by groups of FDIC-insured institutions based on predominant types of asset concentration, 

while other tables aggregate institutions by asset size and 

geographic region. Quarterly and full-year data are provided 

for selected indicators, including aggregate condition and 

income data, performance ratios, condition ratios, and structural changes, as well as past due, noncurrent, and charge-off 

information for loans outstanding and other assets.

Tables I-B through IV-B.

A separate set of tables (Tables I-B through IV-B) provides 

comparative quarterly data related to the Deposit Insurance 

Fund (DIF), problem institutions, failed/assisted institutions, 

estimated FDIC-insured deposits, as well as assessment rate 

information. Depository institutions that are not insured by 

the FDIC through the DIF are not included in the FDIC 

Quarterly Banking Profile. U.S. branches of institutions headquartered in foreign countries and non-deposit trust companies are not included unless otherwise indicated. Efforts are 

made to obtain financial reports for all active institutions. 

However, in some cases, final financial reports are not available for institutions that have closed or converted their 

charters.

DATA SOURCES

The financial information appearing in this publication is 

obtained primarily from the Federal Financial Institutions 

Examination Council (FFIEC) Consolidated Reports of 

Condition and Income (Call Reports) and the OTS Thrift 

Financial Reports submitted by all FDIC-insured depository 

institutions. This information is stored on and retrieved from 

the FDIC’s Research Information System (RIS) data base.

COMPUTATION METHODOLOGY

Parent institutions are required to file consolidated reports, 

while their subsidiary financial institutions are still required 

to file separate reports. Data from subsidiary institution 

reports are included in the Quarterly Banking Profile tables, 

which can lead to double-counting. No adjustments are made 

for any double-counting of subsidiary data. Additionally, certain adjustments are made to the OTS Thrift Financial Reports

to provide closer conformance with the reporting and 

accounting requirements of the FFIEC Call Reports.

15, 2008. Similarly, FAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Thus, for institutions 

with calendar year fiscal years, these two accounting standards 

take effect in 2009. Beginning in March 2009, Institution 

equity capital and Noncontrolling interests are separately 

reported in arriving at Total equity capital.

FASB Statement No. 157 Fair Value Measurements issued in 

September 2006 and FASB Statement No. 159 The Fair Value 

Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities issued in 

February 2007 – both are effective in 2008 with early adoption 

permitted in 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value and establishes 

a framework for developing fair value estimates for the fair 

value measurements that are already required or permitted 

under other standards. FASB FSP 157-4, issued in April 2009, 

provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in 

accordance with FAS 157 when the volume and level of 

activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. 

The FSP also includes guidance on identifying circumstances 

that indicate a transaction is not orderly. The FSP is effective 

for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 

2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after 

March 15, 2009.

Fair value continues to be used for derivatives, trading securities, and available-for-sale securities. Changes in fair value go 

through earnings for trading securities and most derivatives. 

Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale securities are 

reported in other comprehensive income. Available-for-sale 

securities and held-to-maturity debt securities are written 

down to fair value if impairment is other than temporary and 

loans held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or fair 

value.

FAS 159 allows institutions to report certain financial assets 

and liabilities at fair value with subsequent changes in fair 

value included in earnings. In general, an institution may 

elect the fair value option for an eligible financial asset or liability when it first recognizes the instrument on its balance 

sheet or enters into an eligible firm commitment.

FASB Statement No. 158 Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit 

Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – issued in September 

2006 requires a bank to recognize in 2007, and subsequently, 

the funded status of its postretirement plans on its balance 

sheet. An overfunded plan is recognized as an asset and an 

underfunded plan is recognized as a liability. An adjustment is 

made to equity as accumulated other comprehensive income 

(AOCI) upon application of FAS 158, and AOCI is adjusted 

in subsequent periods as net periodic benefit costs are recognized in earnings.

FASB Statement No. 156 Accounting for Servicing of Financial 

Assets – issued in March 2006 and effective in 2007, requires 

all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities to 

be initially measured at fair value and allows a bank the 

option to subsequently adjust that value by periodic revaluation and recognition of earnings or by periodic amortization 

to earnings.

FASB Statement No. 155 Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial 

Instruments – issued in February 2006, requires bifurcation of 

certain derivatives embedded in interests in securitized financial assets and permits fair value measurement (i.e., a fair 

value option) for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that would otherwise require 

bifurcation under FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for 

security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, an otherthan-temporary impairment has occurred and the entire 

difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its 

fair value must be recognized in earnings.

For any debt security held at the beginning of the interim 

period in which FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 is adopted 

for which an other-than-temporary impairment loss has been 

previously recognized, if an institution does not intend to sell 

such a debt security and it is not more likely than not that 

the institution will be required to sell the debt security before 

recovery of its amortized cost basis, the institution should 

recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the FSP 

as an adjustment to the interim period’s opening balance of 

retained earnings, net of applicable taxes, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income. 

The cumulative effect on retained earnings must be calculated by comparing the present value of the cash flows expected 

to be collected on the debt security with the security’s amortized cost basis as of the beginning of the interim period 

of adoption.

FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 are effective for interim and 

annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. Early 

adoption of this FSP is permitted for periods ending after 

March 15, 2009, if certain conditions are met. Institutions are 

expected to adopt FSP FAS 115-2 and 124-2 for regulatory 

reporting purposes in accordance with the FSP’s effective 

date.

Extended Net Operating Loss Carryback Period 

for Small Businesses

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, 

which was enacted on February 17, 2009, permits qualifying 

small businesses, including FDIC-insured institutions, to elect 

a net operating loss carryback period of three, four, or five 

years instead of the usual carryback period of two years for 

any tax year ending in 2008 or, at the small business’s election, any tax year beginning in 2008. Under generally accepted accounting principles, institutions may not record the 

effect of this tax change in their balance sheets and income 

statements for financial and regulatory reporting purposes 

until the period in which the law was enacted, i.e., the first 

quarter of 2009.

Business Combinations and Noncontrolling (Minority) 

Interests

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141 

(Revised), Business Combinations (FAS 141(R)), and 

Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated 

Financial Statements (FAS 160). Under FAS 141(R), all business combinations, including combinations of mutual entities, 

are to be accounted for by applying the acquisition method. 

FAS 160 defines a noncontrolling interest, also called a 

minority interest, as the portion of equity in an institution’s 

subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the parent 

institution. FAS 160 requires an institution to clearly present 

in its consolidated financial statements the equity ownership 

in and results of its subsidiaries that are attributable to the 

noncontrolling ownership interests in these subsidiaries. FAS 

141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for 

which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the 

first annual reporting period beginning on or after December

DEFINITIONS (in alphabetical order)

All other assets – total cash, balances due from depository institutions, premises, fixed assets, direct investments in real estate, 

investment in unconsolidated subsidiaries, customers’ liability 

on acceptances outstanding, assets held in trading accounts, 

federal funds sold, securities purchased with agreements to 

resell, fair market value of derivatives, and other assets.

All other liabilities – bank’s liability on acceptances, limited-life 

preferred stock, allowance for estimated off-balance-sheet credit losses, fair market value of derivatives, and other liabilities.

Assessment base – assessable deposits consist of DIF deposits 

(deposits insured by the FDIC Deposit Insurance Fund) in 

banks’ domestic offices with certain adjustments).

Assets securitized and sold – total outstanding principal balance 

of assets securitized and sold with servicing retained or other 

seller- provided credit enhancements.

Capital Purchase Program (CPP) – As announced in October 

2008 under the TARP, the Treasury Department purchase of 

noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related warrants 

that is treated as Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes 

is included in “Total equity capital.” Such warrants to purchase common stock or noncumulative preferred stock issued 

by publicly-traded banks are reflected as well in “Surplus.” 

Warrants to purchase common stock or noncumulative preferred stock of not-publicly-traded bank stock classified in a 

bank’s balance sheet as “Other liabilities.”

Construction and development loans – includes loans for all 

property types under construction, as well as loans for land 

acquisition and development.

Core capital – common equity capital plus noncumulative perpetual preferred stock plus minority interest in consolidated 

subsidiaries, less goodwill and other ineligible intangible 

assets. The amount of eligible intangibles (including servicing 

rights) included in core capital is limited in accordance with 

supervisory capital regulations.

Cost of funding earning assets – total interest expense paid on 

deposits and other borrowed money as a percentage of average 

earning assets.

Credit enhancements – techniques whereby a company attempts 

to reduce the credit risk of its obligations. Credit enhancement may be provided by a third party (external credit 

enhancement) or by the originator (internal credit enhancement), and more than one type of enhancement may be 

associated with a given issuance.

Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) – The Bank (BIF) and Savings 

Association (SAIF) Insurance Funds were merged in 2006 by 

the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act to form the DIF.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 133). In 

addition, FAS 155 clarifies which interest-only and principalonly strips are not subject to FAS 133.

Purchased Impaired Loans and Debt Securities – Statement of 

Position 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities 

Acquired in a Transfer. The SOP applies to loans and debt 

securities acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 

15, 2004. In general, this Statement of Position applies to 

“purchased impaired loans and debt securities” (i.e., loans and 

debt securities that a bank has purchased, including those 

acquired in a purchase business combination, when it is probable, at the purchase date, that the bank will be unable to 

collect all contractually required payments receivable). Banks 

must follow Statement of Position 03-3 for Call Report purposes. The SOP does not apply to the loans that a bank has 

originated, prohibits “carrying over” or creation of valuation 

allowances in the initial accounting, and any subsequent valuation allowances reflect only those losses incurred by the 

investor after acquisition.

GNMA Buy-back Option – If an issuer of GNMA securities 

has the option to buy back the loans that collateralize the 

GNMA securities, when certain delinquency criteria are met, 

FASB Statement No. 140 requires that loans with this buyback option must be brought back on the issuer’s books as 

assets. The rebooking of GNMA loans is required regardless 

of whether the issuer intends to exercise the buy-back option. 

The banking agencies clarified in May 2005 that all GNMA 

loans that are rebooked because of delinquency should be 

reported as past due according to their contractual terms.

FASB Interpretation No. 46 – The FASB issued Interpretation 

No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, in January 

2003 and revised it in December 2003. Generally, banks with 

variable interests in variable interest entities created after 

December 31, 2003, must consolidate them. The timing of 

consolidation varies with certain situations with application 

as late as 2005. The assets and liabilities of a consolidated 

variable interest entity are reported on a line-by-line basis 

according to the asset and liability categories shown on the 

bank’s balance sheet, as well as related income items. Most 

small banks are unlikely to have any “variable interests” in 

variable interest entities.

FASB Interpretation No. 48 on Uncertain Tax Positions – FASB 

Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income 

Taxes (FIN 48), was issued in June 2006 as an interpretation 

of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. 

Under FIN 48, the term “tax position” refers to “a position 

in a previously filed tax return or a position expected to be 

taken in a future tax return that is reflected in measuring 

current or deferred income tax assets and liabilities.” FIN 48 

further states that a “tax position can result in a permanent 

reduction of income taxes payable, a deferral of income taxes 

otherwise currently payable to future years, or a change in the 

expected realizability of deferred tax assets.” FIN 48 was originally issued effective for fiscal years beginning after December 

15, 2006. Banks must adopt FIN 48 for Call Report purposes 

in accordance with the interpretation’s effective date except 

as follows. On December 31, 2008, the FASB decided to defer 

the effective date of FIN 48 for eligible nonpublic enterprises 

and to require those enterprises to adopt FIN 48 for annual 

periods beginning after December 15, 2008. A nonpublic 

enterprise under certain conditions is eligible for deferral, 
FDIC Quarterly 24 2009, Volume 3, No. 4

Failed/assisted institutions – An institution fails when regulators take control of the institution, placing the assets and liabilities into a bridge bank, conservatorship, receivership, or 

another healthy institution. This action may require the 

FDIC to provide funds to cover losses. An institution is 

defined as “assisted” when the institution remains open and 

receives assistance in order to continue operating.

Fair Value – the valuation of various assets and liabilities on 

the balance sheet—including trading assets and liabilities, 

available-for-sale securities, loans held for sale, assets and liabilities accounted for under the fair value option, and foreclosed assets—involves the use of fair values. During periods 

of market stress, the fair values of some financial instruments 

and nonfinancial assets may decline.

FHLB advances – all borrowings by FDIC insured institutions 

from the Federal Home Loan Bank System (FHLB), as reported by Call Report filers and by TFR filers.

Goodwill and other intangibles – Intangible assets include servicing rights, purchased credit card relationships, and other identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill is the excess of the 

purchase price over the fair market value of the net assets 

acquired, less subsequent impairment adjustments. Other 

intangible assets are recorded at fair value, less subsequent 

quarterly amortization and impairment adjustments.

Loans secured by real estate – includes home equity loans, 

junior liens secured by 1-4 family residential properties, and 

all other loans secured by real estate.

Loans to individuals – includes outstanding credit card balances 

and other secured and unsecured consumer loans.

Long-term assets (5+ years) – loans and debt securities with 

remaining maturities or repricing intervals of over five years.

Maximum credit exposure – the maximum contractual credit 

exposure remaining under recourse arrangements and other 

seller-provided credit enhancements provided by the reporting bank to securitizations.

Mortgage-backed securities – certificates of participation in 

pools of residential mortgages and collateralized mortgage 

obligations issued or guaranteed by government-sponsored or 

private enterprises. Also, see “Securities,” below.

Net charge-offs – total loans and leases charged off (removed 

from balance sheet because of uncollectibility), less amounts 

recovered on loans and leases previously charged off.

Net interest margin – the difference between interest and dividends earned on interest-bearing assets and interest paid to 

depositors and other creditors, expressed as a percentage of 

average earning assets. No adjustments are made for interest 

income that is tax exempt.

Net loans to total assets – loans and lease financing receivables, net of unearned income, allowance and reserves, as a 

percent of total assets on a consolidated basis.

Net operating income – income excluding discretionary transactions such as gains (or losses) on the sale of investment securities and extraordinary items. Income taxes subtracted from 

operating income have been adjusted to exclude the portion 

applicable to securities gains (or losses).

Noncurrent assets – the sum of loans, leases, debt securities, 

and other assets that are 90 days or more past due, or in nonaccrual status.

Derivatives notional amount – The notional, or contractual, 

amounts of derivatives represent the level of involvement in 

the types of derivatives transactions and are not a quantification of market risk or credit risk. Notional amounts represent 

the amounts used to calculate contractual cash flows to be 

exchanged.

Derivatives credit equivalent amount – the fair value of the 

derivative plus an additional amount for potential future credit exposure based on the notional amount, the remaining 

maturity and type of the contract.

Derivatives transaction types:

Futures and forward contracts – contracts in which the buyer 

agrees to purchase and the seller agrees to sell, at a specified 

future date, a specific quantity of an underlying variable or 

index at a specified price or yield. These contracts exist for 

a variety of variables or indices, (traditional agricultural or 

physical commodities, as well as currencies and interest 

rates). Futures contracts are standardized and are traded on 

organized exchanges which set limits on counterparty credit 

exposure. Forward contracts do not have standardized terms 

and are traded over the counter.

Option contracts – contracts in which the buyer acquires the 

right to buy from or sell to another party some specified 

amount of an underlying variable or index at a stated price 

(strike price) during a period or on a specified future date, 

in return for compensation (such as a fee or premium). The 

seller is obligated to purchase or sell the variable or index at 

the discretion of the buyer of the contract.

Swaps – obligations between two parties to exchange a 

series of cash flows at periodic intervals (settlement dates), 

for a specified period. The cash flows of a swap are either 

fixed, or determined for each settlement date by multiplying 

the quantity (notional principal) of the underlying variable 

or index by specified reference rates or prices. Except for 

currency swaps, the notional principal is used to calculate 

each payment but is not exchanged.

Derivatives underlying risk exposure – the potential exposure 

characterized by the level of banks’ concentration in particular underlying instruments, in general. Exposure can result 

from market risk, credit risk, and operational risk, as well as, 

interest rate risk.

Domestic deposits to total assets – total domestic office deposits 

as a percent of total assets on a consolidated basis.

Earning assets – all loans and other investments that earn 

interest or dividend income. 

Efficiency ratio – noninterest expense less amortization of 

intangible assets as a percent of net interest income plus noninterest income. This ratio measures the proportion of net 

operating revenues that are absorbed by overhead expenses, 

so that a lower value indicates greater efficiency.

Estimated insured deposits – In general, insured deposits are 

total domestic deposits minus estimated uninsured deposits. 

Beginning March 31, 2008, for institutions that file Call 

reports, insured deposits are total assessable deposits minus 

estimated uninsured deposits. Beginning September 30, 2009, 

insured deposits include deposits in accounts of $100,000 to 

$250,000 that are covered by a temporary increase in the 

standard maximum FDIC deposit insurance amount.

Risk Categories and Assessment Rate Schedule – The current risk 

categories became effective January 1, 2007. Capital ratios and 

supervisory ratings distinguish one risk category from another. 

The following table shows the relationship of risk categories 

(I, II, III, IV) to capital and supervisory groups as well as the 

initial base assessment rates (in basis points), effective April 1, 

2009 for each risk category. Supervisory Group A generally 

includes institutions with CAMELS composite ratings of 1 or 

2; Supervisory Group B generally includes institutions with a 

CAMELS composite rating of 3; and Supervisory Group C 

generally includes institutions with CAMELS composite ratings of 4 or 5. For purposes of risk-based assessment capital 

groups, undercapitalized includes institutions that are significantly or critically undercapitalized.

Effective April 1, 2009, the initial base assessment rates are 

12 to 45 basis points. An institution’s total assessment rate 

may be less than or greater than its initial base assessment 

rate as a result of additional risk adjustments.

The base assessment rates for most institutions in Risk 

Category I are based on a combination of financial ratios and 

CAMELS component ratings (the financial ratios method).

For large institutions in Risk Category I (generally those with at 

least $10 billion in assets) that have long-term debt issuer ratings, assessment rates are determined by equally weighting the 

institution’s CAMELS component ratings, long-term debt issuer 

ratings, and the financial ratios method assessment rate. For all 

large Risk Category I institutions, additional risk factors are considered to determine whether assessment rates should be adjusted. This additional information includes market data, financial 

performance measures, considerations of the ability of an institution to withstand financial stress, and loss severity indicators. 

Any adjustment is limited to no more than one basis point.

Noncurrent loans & leases – the sum of loans and leases 90 days 

or more past due, and loans and leases in nonaccrual status.

Number of institutions reporting – the number of institutions 

that actually filed a financial report.

Other borrowed funds – federal funds purchased, securities sold 

with agreements to repurchase, demand notes issued to the 

U.S. Treasury, FHLB advances, other borrowed money, mortgage indebtedness, obligations under capitalized leases and 

trading liabilities, less revaluation losses on assets held in 

trading accounts.

Other real estate owned – primarily foreclosed property. Direct 

and indirect investments in real estate ventures are excluded. 

The amount is reflected net of valuation allowances. For institutions that file a Thrift Financial Report (TFR), the valuation 

allowance subtracted also includes allowances for other repossessed assets. Also, for TFR filers the components of other real 

estate owned are reported gross of valuation allowances.

Percent of institutions with earnings gains – the percent of institutions that increased their net income (or decreased their 

losses) compared to the same period a year earlier.

“Problem” institutions – Federal regulators assign a composite 

rating to each financial institution, based upon an evaluation 

of financial and operational criteria. The rating is based on a 

scale of 1 to 5 in ascending order of supervisory concern. 

“Problem” institutions are those institutions with financial, 

operational, or managerial weaknesses that threaten their 

continued financial viability. Depending upon the degree of 

risk and supervisory concern, they are rated either a “4” or 

“5.” The number and assets of “problem” institutions are 

based on FDIC composite ratings. Prior to March 31, 2008, 

for institutions whose primary federal regulator was the OTS, 

the OTS composite rating was used.

Recourse – an arrangement in which a bank retains, in form or 

in substance, any credit risk directly or indirectly associated 

with an asset it has sold (in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) that exceeds a pro rata share of the 

bank’s claim on the asset. If a bank has no claim on an asset 

it has sold, then the retention of any credit risk is recourse.

Reserves for losses – the allowance for loan and lease losses on 

a consolidated basis.

Restructured loans and leases – loan and lease financing receivables with terms restructured from the original contract. 

Excludes restructured loans and leases that are not in compliance with the modified terms.

Retained earnings – net income less cash dividends on common and preferred stock for the reporting period.

Return on assets – net income (including gains or losses on 

securities and extraordinary items) as a percentage of average 

total assets. The basic yardstick of bank profitability.

Return on equity – net income (including gains or losses on 

securities and extraordinary items) as a percentage of average 

total equity capital.
FDIC Quarterly 26 2009, Volume 3, No. 4

(book value), and securities designated as “available-for-sale,” 

reported at fair (market) value.

Securities gains (losses) – realized gains (losses) on held-tomaturity and available-for-sale securities, before adjustments 

for income taxes. Thrift Financial Report (TFR) filers also 

include gains (losses) on the sales of assets held for sale.

Seller’s interest in institution’s own securitizations – the reporting 

bank’s ownership interest in loans and other assets that have 

been securitized, except an interest that is a form of recourse 

or other seller-provided credit enhancement. Seller’s interests 

differ from the securities issued to investors by the securitization structure. The principal amount of a seller’s interest is 

generally equal to the total principal amount of the pool of 

assets included in the securitization structure less the principal amount of those assets attributable to investors, i.e., in the 

form of securities issued to investors.

Subchapter S Corporation – A Subchapter S corporation is treated as a pass-through entity, similar to a partnership, for federal income tax purposes. It is generally not subject to any 

federal income taxes at the corporate level. This can have the 

effect of reducing institutions’ reported taxes and increasing 

their after-tax earnings.

Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLGP) – was approved 

by the FDIC Board on October 13, 2008. The TLGP was 

designed to help relieve the crisis in the credit markets by 

giving banks access to liquidity during a time of global financial distress. Participation in the TLGP is voluntary. The 

TLGP has two components:

Transaction Account Guarantee Program (TAGP) – provides a full 

guarantee of non-interest-bearing deposit transaction 

accounts above $250,000, at depository institutions that 

elected to participate in the program. On August 26, 2009, 

the FDIC Board voted to extend the TAGP six months 

beyond its original expiration date to June 30, 2010.

Debt Guarantee Program (DGP) – provides a full guarantee of 

senior unsecured debt1 issued by eligible institutions after 

October 14, 2008. Initially, debt issued before June 30, 

2009, and maturing on or before June 30, 2012, could be 

guaranteed. On March 17, 2009, the deadline for issuance 

under the program was extended to October 31, 2009, and 

the expiration of the guarantee was set at the earlier of 

maturity of the debt or December 31, 2012. Institutions 

eligible for participation in the debt guarantee program 

include insured depository institutions, U.S. bank holding 

companies, certain U.S. savings and loan holding companies, and other affiliates of an insured depository institution 

that the FDIC designates as eligible entities. The FDIC 

Board adopted a final rule on October 20, 2009, that established a limited six-month emergency guarantee facility 

upon expiration of the DGP.

Trust assets – market value, or other reasonably available 

value of fiduciary and related assets, to include marketable 

securities, and other financial and physical assets. Common 

physical assets held in fiduciary accounts include real estate, 

1

 Senior unsecured debt generally includes term Federal funds 

purchased, promissory notes, commercial paper, unsubordinated 

unsecured notes, certificates of deposit (CDs) standing to the credit of 

a bank, and U.S. dollar denominated bank deposits owed to an insured 

depository institution.

Effective April 1, 2009, the FDIC introduced three possible 

adjustments to an institution’s initial base assessment rate: 

(1) a decrease of up to 5 basis points for long-term unsecured 

debt and, for small institutions, a portion of Tier 1 capital; 

(2) an increase not to exceed 50 percent of an institution’s 

assessment rate before the increase for secured liabilities in 

excess of 25 percent of domestic deposits; and (3) for nonRisk Category I institutions, an increase not to exceed 10 

basis points for brokered deposits in excess of 10 percent of 

domestic deposits. After applying all possible adjustments, 

minimum and maximum total base assessment rates for each 

risk category are as follows:

Beginning in 2007, each institution is assigned a risk-based 

rate for a quarterly assessment period near the end of the 

quarter following the assessment period. Payment is generally 

due on the 30th day of the last month of the quarter following the assessment period. Supervisory rating changes are 

effective for assessment purposes as of the examination 

transmittal date. For institutions with long-term debt issuer 

ratings, changes in ratings are effective for assessment purposes as of the date the change was announced.

Special Assessment – On May 22, 2009, the FDIC board 

approved a final rule that imposed a 5 basis point special 

assessment as of June 30, 2009. The special assessment was 

levied on each insured depository institution’s assets minus 

its Tier 1 capital as reported in its report of condition as of 

June 30, 2009. The special assessment will be collected 

September 30, 2009, at the same time that the risk-based 

assessment for the second quarter of 2009 is collected. The 

special assessment for any institution was capped at 10 basis 

points of the institution’s assessment base for the second 

quarter of 2009 risk-based assessment.
