COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Credit Extensions-In the normal course of business, the Company has various outstanding commitments to extend credit that are not reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, undisbursed loan commitments amounted to $2.07 billion and $1.89 billion, respectively. Commercial and standby letters of credit amounted to $1.55 billion and $768.8 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Guarantees-From time to time, the Company sells or securitizes loans with recourse in the ordinary course of business. For loans that have been sold or securitized with recourse, the recourse component is considered a guarantee. When the Company sells or securitizes a loan with recourse, it commits to stand ready to perform if the loan defaults and to make payments to remedy the default. As of June 30, 2011, total loans sold or securitized with recourse amounted to $650.6 million and were comprised of $57.8 million in single-family loans with full recourse and $592.8 million in multifamily loans with limited recourse. In comparison, total loans sold or securitized with recourse amounted to $699.6 million at December 31, 2010, comprised of $60.9 million in single-family loans with full recourse and $638.7 million in multifamily loans with limited recourse. The recourse provision on multifamily loans varies by loan sale and is limited to up to 4% of the top loss on the underlying loans. The Company's recourse reserve related to loan sales and securitizations totaled $4.5 million as of June 30, 2011 and $4.7 million as of December 31, 2010, and is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Despite the challenging conditions in the real estate market, the Company continues to experience minimal losses from the single-family and multifamily loan portfolios. The Company also sells or securitizes loans without recourse that may have to be subsequently repurchased if a defect that occurred during the loan origination process results in a violation of a representation or warranty made in connection with the securitization or sale of the loan. When a loan sold or securitized to an investor without recourse fails to perform according to its contractual terms, the investor will typically review the loan file to determine whether defects in the origination process occurred and if such defects give rise to a violation of a representation or warranty made to the investor in connection with the sale or securitization. If such a defect is identified, the Company may be required to either repurchase the loan or indemnify the investor for losses sustained. If there are no such defects, the Company has no commitment to repurchase the loan. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the amount of loans sold without recourse totaled $1.62 billion and $1.48 billion, respectively. Total loans securitized without recourse amounted to $310.9 million and $325.5 million, respectively, at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The loans sold or securitized without recourse represent the unpaid principal balance of the Company's loans serviced for others portfolio. Litigation-Neither the Company nor the Bank is involved in any material legal proceedings at June 30, 2011. The Bank, from time to time, is a party to litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business, such as claims to enforce liens, claims involving the origination and servicing of loans, and other issues related to the business of the Bank. After taking into consideration information furnished by counsel to the Company and the Bank, management believes that the resolution of such issues will not have a material adverse impact on the financial position, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company or the Bank.
