Loans and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Loans
Effective January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2022-02, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures" (ASU 2022-02), which eliminated the accounting for troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) while expanding loan modification and vintage disclosure requirements. Under ASU 2022-02, the Corporation assesses all loan modifications to determine whether one is granted to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, regardless of whether the modified loan terms include a concession. Modifications granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may be in the form of an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, a term extension, principal forgiveness or a combination thereof (collectively referred to as Financially Distressed Modifications or FDMs).
Prior to the adoption of ASU 2022-02, a TDR occurred when a loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty was restructured with a concession provided that a creditor would not otherwise consider. For the Corporation's accounting policy related to TDRs granted prior to the adoption of ASU 2022-02, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the 2022 Annual Report.
The Corporation adopted ASU 2022-02 on a prospective basis. There was no financial statement impact from the adoption of this ASU. Refer to Note 4 for further information.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2023-02 "Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force)" (ASU 2023-02). ASU 2023-02 expands the permitted use of the proportional amortization method, which is currently only available to low-income housing tax credit investments, to other tax equity investments if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, the initial cost of an investment is amortized in proportion to the income tax benefits received and both the amortization of the investment and the income tax benefits received are recognized as a component of income tax expense. This ASU is effective on January 1, 2024 and may be applied on either a modified retrospective or retrospective basis or, for certain changes, on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. This ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.
