Upon applying ASU 2016-13, the Company determined that credit-related losses are immaterial given the government insured nature of the HECM loan product. Any expected credit-related losses are contemplated in the Company’s existing reserve methodology due to the nature of this financial instrument. Accordingly, no cumulative effect adjustment was required upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 a nd no additional CECL reserve was recorded as of September 30, 2020. The credit-risk characteristics of reverse mortgage interests do not vary with time as the financial instruments have no contractual life or financial profile as the primary counterparty is the government agency insuring the loans.
