Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Option | Fair Value Option Other Financial Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value In addition to trading assets and liabilities, and certain investments and loans, the firm accounts for certain of its other financial assets and liabilities at fair value, substantially all under the fair value option. The primary reasons for electing the fair value option are to: •Reflect economic events in earnings on a timely basis; •Mitigate volatility in earnings from using different measurement attributes (e.g., transfers of financial assets accounted for as financings are recorded at fair value, whereas the related secured financing would be recorded on an accrual basis absent electing the fair value option); and •Address simplification and cost-benefit considerations (e.g., accounting for hybrid financial instruments at fair value in their entirety versus bifurcation of embedded derivatives and hedge accounting for debt hosts). Hybrid financial instruments are instruments that contain bifurcatable embedded derivatives and do not require settlement by physical delivery of nonfinancial assets (e.g., physical commodities). Unless the firm has elected to account for the entire hybrid financial instrument at fair value under the fair value option, the embedded derivative is bifurcated from the associated host contract, the derivative is accounted for at fair value and the host contract is accounted for at amortized cost, adjusted for the effective portion of any fair value hedges. Other financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value under the fair value option include: •Repurchase agreements and substantially all resale agreements; •Certain securities borrowed and loaned transactions; •Certain customer and other receivables and certain other assets and liabilities; •Certain time deposits (deposits with no stated maturity are not eligible for a fair value option election), including structured certificates of deposit, which are hybrid financial instruments; •Substantially all other secured financings, including structured financing arrangements and transfers of assets accounted for as financings; and •Certain unsecured short- and long-term borrowings, substantially all of which are hybrid financial instruments. See Note 4 for an overview of the firm’s fair value measurement policies, valuation techniques and significant inputs used to determine the fair value of other financial assets and liabilities, and Note 5 for information about other financial assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy. Gains and Losses on Other Financial Assets and Liabilities Accounted for at Fair Value Under the Fair Value Option The table below presents the gains and losses recognized in earnings as a result of the election to apply the fair value option to certain financial assets and liabilities.

Unsecured short-term borrowings | $ | (2,027) |  | $ | (1,287) |  |  | $ | (3,839) |  | $ | (2,477) |
Unsecured long-term borrowings | (2,476) |  | (3,707) |  |  | (6,412) |  | (4,781) |

In the table above: •Gains/(losses) were substantially all included in market making. •Gains/(losses) exclude contractual interest, which is included in interest income and interest expense, for all instruments other than hybrid financial instruments. See Note 23 for further information about interest income and interest expense. •Gains/(losses) included in unsecured short- and long-term borrowings were substantially all related to the embedded derivative component of hybrid financial instruments. These gains and losses would have been recognized under other U.S. GAAP even if the firm had not elected to account for the entire hybrid financial instrument at fair value. •Gains/(losses) included in other were primarily related to resale and repurchase agreements, deposits and other secured financings. •Other financial assets and liabilities at fair value are frequently economically hedged with trading assets and liabilities. Accordingly, gains or losses on such other financial assets and liabilities can be partially offset by gains or losses on trading assets and liabilities. As a result, gains or losses on other financial assets and liabilities do not necessarily represent the overall impact on the firm’s results of operations, liquidity or capital resources. Gains/(losses) on trading assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value under the fair value option are included in market making. See Note 6 for further information about gains/(losses) from market making. See Note 8 for information about gains/(losses) on equity securities and Note 9 for information about gains/(losses) on loans which are accounted for at fair value under the fair value option. Long-Term Debt Instruments The difference between the aggregate contractual principal amount and the related fair value of long-term other secured financings for which the fair value option was elected was not material as of both September 2025 and December 2024. The aggregate contractual principal amount of unsecured long-term borrowings for which the fair value option was elected, exceeded the related fair value by $2.67 billion as of September 2025 and $4.23 billion as of December 2024. These debt instruments include both principal-protected and non-principal-protected long-term borrowings. Debt Valuation Adjustment The firm calculates the fair value of financial liabilities for which the fair value option is elected by discounting future cash flows at a rate which incorporates the firm’s credit spreads. The table below presents information about the net debt valuation adjustment (DVA) gains/(losses) on financial liabilities for which the fair value option was elected.
| Three Months Ended September |  | Nine Months Ended September
$ in millions | 2025 | 2024 |  | 2025 | 2024
Pre-tax DVA | $ | (962) |  | $ | (128) |  |  | $ | (864) |  | $ | (514) |
After-tax DVA | $ | (711) |  | $ | (95) |  |  | $ | (641) |  | $ | (383) |
In the table above: •After-tax DVA is included in debt valuation adjustment in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. •The gains/(losses) reclassified to market making in the consolidated statements of earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) upon extinguishment of such financial liabilities were not material for each of the three and nine months ended September 2025 and September 2024. Loans and Lending Commitments The table below presents the difference between the aggregate fair value and the aggregate contractual principal amount for loans (included in trading assets and loans in the consolidated balance sheets) for which the fair value option was elected.
| As of
| September | December
$ in millions | 2025 | 2024
Performing loans |  |
Aggregate contractual principal in excess of fair value | $ | 707 |  | $ | 965 |
Loans on nonaccrual status and/or more than 90 days past due
Aggregate contractual principal in excess of fair value | $ | 2,141 |  | $ | 2,402 |
Aggregate fair value | $ | 2,997 |  | $ | 1,454 |
In the table above, the aggregate contractual principal amount of loans on nonaccrual status and/or more than 90 days past due (which excludes loans carried at zero fair value and considered uncollectible) exceeds the related fair value primarily because the firm regularly purchases loans, such as distressed loans, at values significantly below the contractual principal amounts. The total contractual amount of unfunded lending commitments for which the fair value option was elected was $1.62 billion as of September 2025 and $568 million as of December 2024, and the related fair value of these lending commitments was not material as of both September 2025 and December 2024. See Note 18 for further information about lending commitments. Impact of Credit Spreads on Loans and Lending Commitments The estimated net loss attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit spreads on loans and lending commitments for which the fair value option was elected was not material for each of the three and nine months ended September 2025 and September 2024. The firm generally calculates the fair value of loans and lending commitments for which the fair value option is elected by discounting future cash flows at a rate which incorporates the instrument-specific credit spreads. For floating-rate loans and lending commitments, substantially all changes in fair value are attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit spreads, whereas for fixed-rate loans and lending commitments, changes in fair value are also attributable to changes in interest rates.
