Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivatives | 7. Derivatives Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage risks related to differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments, currently associated with fixed rate brokered deposits, certain investment securities and select pools of variable rate loans. The Bank also enters into interest rate derivative agreements as a service to certain qualifying customers. The Bank manages a matched book with respect to these customer derivatives in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such agreements. The Bank also enters into risk participation agreements under which it may either sell or buy credit risk associated with a customer’s performance under certain interest rate derivative contracts related to loans in which participation interests have been sold to or purchased from other banks. Fair Values of Derivative Instruments on the Balance Sheet The table below presents the notional or contractual amounts and fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk The Company is party to various interest rate swap agreements designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges of the Company’s forecasted variable cash flows for pools of variable rate loans. For each agreement, the Company receives interest at a fixed rate and pays at a variable rate. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company terminated five of its shorter-term swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $450 million and entered into five longer-term agreements with notional amounts totaling $450 million. The Company paid termination fees of approximately $10.6 million to settle the interest rate swap liabilities, and the resulting accumulated other comprehensive loss is being amortized over the remaining maturities of the designated instruments. Amortization of other comprehensive loss on terminated cash flow hedges totaled $3.4 million and $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The notional amounts of the swap agreements in place at September 30, 2019 expire as follows: $50 million in 2021; $475 million in 2022; $450 million in 2023; and $100 million in 2024. Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk Interest rate swaps on brokered deposits The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements that modify the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by effectively converting a portion of the Company’s brokered certificates of deposit from fixed rates to variable rates. The maturities and call features of these interest rate swaps match the features of the hedged deposits. As interest rates fall, the decline in the value of the certificates of deposit is offset by the increase in the value of the interest rate swaps. Conversely, as interest rates rise, the value of the underlying hedged deposits increases, but the value of the interest rate swaps decreases, resulting in no impact on earnings. Interest expense is adjusted by the difference between the fixed and floating rates for the period the swaps are in effect. Interest rate swaps on securities available for sale In the third quarter of 2019, the Company executed multiple forward starting fixed payer swaps to convert the latter portion of pools of available for sale securities to a floating rate. These instruments were designated as last-of-layer fair value hedges against the select closed pools of prepayable commercial mortgage backed securities. This strategy provides the Company with a fixed rate coupon during the front end unhedged tenor of the bonds and results in a floating rate security during the back end hedged tenor, with hedged start dates between August 2023 through August 2024 and maturity dates from January 2028 through January 2029. In accordance with ASC 815, an entity may exclude prepayment risk when measuring the change in fair value of the hedged item attributable to interest rate risk under the last-of-layer approach. The fair value of the hedged item attributable to interest rate risk will be presented in interest income along with the change in the fair value of the hedging instrument. At September 30, 2019, the amortized cost basis of the closed portfolio of prepayable commercial mortgage backed securities totaled $499.2 million. The amount that represents the hedged items was $441.4 million and the basis adjustment associated with the hedged items totaled $7.9 million. Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges Customer interest rate derivative program The Bank enters into interest rate derivative agreements, primarily rate swaps, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Bank enters into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions, thereby mitigating its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Because the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings. Risk participation agreements The Bank also enters into risk participation agreements under which it may either assume or sell credit risk associated with a borrower’s performance under certain interest rate derivative contracts. In those instances where the Bank has assumed credit risk, it is not a direct counterparty to the derivative contract with the borrower and has entered into the risk participation agreement because it is a party to the related loan agreement with the borrower. In those instances in which the Bank has sold credit risk, it is the sole counterparty to the derivative contract with the borrower and has entered into the risk participation agreement because other banks participate in the related loan agreement. The Bank manages its credit risk under risk participation agreements by monitoring the creditworthiness of the borrower, based on the Bank’s normal credit review process. Mortgage banking derivatives The Bank also enters into certain derivative agreements as part of its mortgage banking activities. These agreements include interest rate lock commitments on prospective residential mortgage loans and forward commitments to sell these loans to investors on a best efforts delivery basis. Customer foreign exchange forward contract derivatives The Bank enters into foreign exchange forward derivative agreements, primarily forward foreign currency contracts, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Bank manages its risk exposure from such transactions by entering into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions. Because the foreign exchange forward contract derivatives associated with this program do not meet hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings. Visa Class B derivative contract The Company is a member of Visa USA. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company sold the majority of its Visa Class B holdings, at which time it entered into a derivative agreement with the purchaser whereby the Company will make or receive cash payments whenever the conversion ratio of the Visa Class B shares into Visa Class A shares is adjusted. The conversion ratio changes when Visa deposits funds to a litigation escrow account established by Visa to pay settlements for certain litigation, for which Visa is indemnified by Visa USA members. The Company is also required to make periodic financing payments to the purchaser until all of Visa’s covered litigation matters are resolved. Thus, the derivative contract extends until the end of Visa’s covered litigation matters, the timing of which is uncertain. The contract includes a contingent accelerated termination clause based on the credit ratings of the Company. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the fair value of the liability associated with this contract was $6.2 million and $7.3 million, respectively. Refer to Note 15 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments for discussion of the valuation inputs for this derivative liability. Effect of Derivative Instruments on the Statement of Income The effects of derivative instruments on the consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are presented in the table below. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the reduction of interest income attributable to cash flow hedges includes amortization of accumulated other comprehensive loss that resulted from termination of five interest rate swap contracts.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features Certain of the Bank’s derivative instruments contain provisions allowing the financial institution counterparty to terminate the contracts in certain circumstances, such as a downgrade of the Bank’s credit ratings below specified levels, a default by the Bank on its indebtedness, or the failure of the Bank to maintain specified minimum regulatory capital ratios or its regulatory status as a well-capitalized institution. These derivative agreements also contain provisions regarding the posting of collateral by each party. At September 30, 2019, the Company was not in violation of any such provisions. Offsetting Assets and Liabilities The Bank’s derivative instruments with certain counterparties contain legally enforceable netting provisions that allow for net settlement of multiple transactions to a single amount, which may be positive, negative, or zero. Agreements with certain bilateral counterparties require both parties to maintain collateral in the event that the fair values of derivative instruments exceed established exposure thresholds. For centrally cleared derivatives, the Company is subject to initial margin posting and daily variation margin exchange with the central clearinghouses. Offsetting information in regards to all derivative assets and liabilities, including accrued interest, subject to these master netting agreements at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is presented in the following tables.
