Trust preferred securities [Abstract] |
Trust Preferred Securities | Note 18 – Trust preferred securities Statutory trusts established by the Corporation (Popular Capital Trust I, Popular North America Capital Trust I and Popular Capital Trust II) had issued trust preferred securities (also referred to as “capital securities”) to the public. The proceeds from such issuances, together with the proceeds of the related issuances of common securities of the trusts (the “common securities”), were used by the trusts to purchase junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures (the “junior subordinated debentures”) issued by the Corporation. The sole assets of the trusts consisted of the junior subordinated debentures of the Corporation and the related accrued interest receivable. These trusts are not consolidated by the Corporation pursuant to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The junior subordinated debentures are included by the Corporation as notes payable in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, while the common securities issued by the issuer trusts are included as debt securities held-to-maturity. The common securities of each trust are wholly-owned, or indirectly wholly-owned, by the Corporation. As disclosed in Note 17, on November 1, 2021, the Corporation redeemed all outstanding trust preferred securities issued by the Popular Capital Trust I amounting to approximately $187 million (or approximately $181 million after excluding the Corporation’s participation in the Trust of approximately $6 million) in the aggregate. The following tables presents financial data pertaining to the different trusts at December 31, 2021 and 2020.
