Mar. 31, 2021
Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X and other SEC rules and regulations for reporting on the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed by us with the SEC. The December 31, 2020 consolidated statements of financial condition presented herein has been derived from the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC.
Reclassification | Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation, including i) reclassification of income taxes receivable to other assets in the consolidated statement of financial condition, and ii) reclassification of outside services expense from "outside services fees" to "all other expense" in the consolidated statements of operations.In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all of the adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented.
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the Company include its then wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Adopted Accounting Pronouncements, Significant Accounting Policies, and Recent Accounting Guidance | Adopted Accounting Pronouncements: On January 1, 2021, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”) which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for investments, intra-period allocations, and interim calculations, and adding guidance to reduce the complexity of applying Topic 740. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Significant Accounting Policies: The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are based upon GAAP and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry. We have not made any significant changes in our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC. Recent Accounting Guidance: Beginning in June 2023, the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) will be discontinued. To assist entities with the transition away from LIBOR, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued accounting guidance to clarify GAAP and provide practical expedients for entities to utilize during the time of transition. We are in the process of evaluating the potential impact the discontinuation of LIBOR will have on our consolidated financial statements. The optional expedients and exceptions provided through this relief are set forth below and were effective immediately; however, certain provisions from this relief are not yet determined due to the fact that LIBOR has not yet been discontinued. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), ("ASU 2020-04") which provided optional guidance, for a limited period of time, to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the benefits of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 were elective and applied to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 provided optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria. When elected, the optional expedients for contract modifications must be applied consistently for all eligible contracts or eligible transactions within the relevant topic or industry subtopic within the codification that contains the guidance that otherwise would be required to be applied. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 were effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)("ASU 2021-01"). The amendments in ASU 2021-01 clarified that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. Specifically, certain provisions in Topic 848, if elected by an entity, apply to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. Amendments in this Update to the expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 capture the incremental consequences of the scope clarification and tailor the existing guidance to derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition. The amendments in ASU 2021-01 are elective and apply to all entities that have derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. The amendments also optionally apply to all entities that designate receive-variable-rate, pay-variable-rate cross-currency interest rate swaps as hedging instruments in net investment hedges that are modified as a result of reference rate reform. The amendments in ASU 2021-01 were effective immediately for all entities. ASU 2021-01 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements: The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) (which includes the allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) and the reserve for unfunded loan commitments), provision for credit losses, loan repurchase reserve, realization of deferred tax assets, the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, other derivatives, Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (“HLBV”) of investments in alternative energy partnerships, and the fair value measurement of financial instruments are particularly subject to change and such change could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
