|  | FASB ASU 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments |  | The FASB issued ASU 2020-03 in March 2020, which, among other things, provides clarification on issues related to the term that should be used to measure expected credit losses of net investments in leases and that an allowance for credit losses should be recorded once control of financial assets has been regained. | January 1, 2020 | The Corporation was not impacted by the adoption of ASU 2020-03 during the first quarter of 2020.

Therefore, the grant-date fair value of the share-based payment awards will be the basis for the reduction of the transaction price. | January 1, 2020 | The Corporation was not impacted by the adoption of ASU 2019-08 during the first quarter of 2020 since it does not grant shared-based payments awards to its customers.

FASB ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment |  | The FASB issued ASU 2017-04 in January 2017, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2 of the two-step goodwill impairment test under the current guidance. Goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Entities will be required to disclose the amount of goodwill at reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. | January 1, 2020 | The Corporation adopted ASU 2017-04 during the first quarter of 2020 and, as such, considered this guidance when performing the annual impairment test during 2020. Refer to Note 14, Goodwill and other intangible assets, for additional information.
FASB ASU 2017-03, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the September 22, 2016 and November 17, 2016 EITF Meetings (SEC Update) |  | The FASB issued ASU 2017-03 in January 2017, which incorporates into the Accounting Standards Codification recent SEC guidance about certain investments in qualified affordable housing and disclosing under SEC SAB Topic 11.M the effect on financial statements of adopting the revenue, leases and credit losses standards. | January 1, 2020 | The Corporation has considered the guidance in this Update in its disclosures on the effect in its consolidated financial statements of adoption of the new Credit Loss Standard, discussed below.
FASB ASUs Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) Since June 2016, the FASB has issued a series of ASUs mainly related to credit losses (Topic 326), which replace the incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. The CECL model applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost that are subject to credit losses and certain off-balance sheet exposures. CECL establishes a forw ard-looking methodology that reflects the expected credit losses over the lives of financial assets, starting when such assets are first acquired or originated. Under the revised methodology, credit losses will be measured based on past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of financial assets. CECL also revises the approach to recognizing credit losses for available-for-sale securities by replacing the direct write-down approach with the allowance approach and limiting the allowance to the amount at which the security’s fair value is less than the amortized cost. In addition, CECL provides that the initial allowance for credit losses on purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) financial assets will be recorded as an increase to the purchase price, with subsequent changes to the allowance recorded as a credit loss expense. The amendments to Topic 326 include the areas of accrued interest receivable, transfers of loans and debt securities between classifications and the inclusion of expected recoveries in the allowance for credit losses including PCD assets. The standards also expand credit quality disclosures. These accounting standards updates were effective on January 1, 2020. The Corporation adopted the new CECL accounting standard effective on January 1, 2020. As a result of the adoption, the Corporation recorded an increase in its allowance for credit losses related to its loan portfolio of $315 million, and a decrease of $9 million in the allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments and credit recourse guarantees which is recorded in Other Liabilities. The Corporation also recognized an allowance for credit losses of approximately $13 million related to its held-to-maturity debt securities portfolio. The adoption of CECL was recognized under the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the adjustments to record the increase in the allowance for credit losses was recorded as a decrease to the opening balance of retained earnings of the year of implementation, net of income taxes, except for approximately $17 million related to loans previously accounted under ASC Subtopic 310-30, which resulted in a reclassification between certain contra loan balance accounts to the allowance for credit losses. The total impact to retained earnings, net of tax, related to the adoption of CECL was of $205.8 million. As part of the adoption of CECL, the Corporation has made the election to break the existing pools of purchased credit impaired (“PCI”) loans previously accounted for under the ASC Subtopic 310-30 guidance. These loans are now accounted for on an individual loan basis under the PCD accounting methodology under CECL. Following the applicable accounting guidance, PCI loans were previously excluded from non-performing status. Upon transition to the individual loan measurement, these loans are no longer excluded from non-performing status, resulting in an increase of $278 million in NPLs at January 1, 2020. This increase included $144 million in loans that were over 90 days past due and $134 million in loans that were not delinquent in their payment terms but were reported as non-performing due to other credit quality considerations. The Corporation availed itself of the option to phase in over a period of three years, beginning on January 1, 2022, the day-one effects on regulatory capital arising from the adoption of CECL. The Corporation was also impacted by the additional disclosures required by CECL. The CECL accounting standard also requires additional disclosures related to delinquencies, collateral types and other credit metrics for loans and investments. Refer to Note 6, Debt securities held- to- maturity, Note 7 -Loans and Note 8- Allowance for credit losses - loans held-in-portfolio for additional disclosures provided in compliance with the new CECL standard.

| FASB ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) |  | The FASB issued ASU 2020-04 in March 2020, which provides accounting relief from the future impact of the cessation of LIBOR by, among other things, providing optional expedients to treat contract modifications resulting from such reference rate reform as a continuation of the existing contract and for hedging relationships to not be de-designated resulting from such changes provided certain criteria are met. | December 31, 2022 | The Corporation is currently in the process of identifying its LIBOR-based contracts that will be impacted by the cessation of LIBOR, incorporating fallback language in negotiated contracts and incorporating non-LIBOR reference rate and/or fallback language in new contracts to prepare for these changes. Notwithstanding these efforts, the Corporation expects to utilize the optional expedients provided by ASU 2020-04 for contracts left unmodified.
| FASB ASU 2020-01, Investments – Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323 and Topic 815 |  | The FASB issued ASU 2020-01 in January 2020, which clarifies that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 and includes scope considerations for entities that hold certain non-derivative forward contracts and purchased options to acquire equity securities that, upon settlement of the forward contract or exercise of the purchase option, would be accounted for under the equity method of accounting. | January 1, 2021 | The Corporation does not expect to be materially impacted by these amendments.
| FASB ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes |  | The FASB issued ASU 2019-12 in December 2019, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions such as the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation and interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. In addition, the ASU simplifies GAAP in a number of areas such as when separate financial statements of legal entities are not subject to tax and enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. | January 1, 2021 | The Corporation does not anticipate that the adoption of this accounting pronouncement will have a material effect on its Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
