Investments in Affordable Housing Projects [Abstract] |
Qualified Affordable Housing Projects | We invest in affordable housing projects primarily to satisfy our Community Reinvestment Act requirements. As a limited partner in these operating partnerships, we receive tax credits and tax deductions for losses incurred by the underlying properties. We use the cost method to account for these partnerships. Our total investment in qualified affordable housing projects totaled $16.8 million at June 30, 2015 and $18.6 million at December 31, 2014. We had no open commitments to fund current or future investments in qualified affordable housing projects at June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014. Amortization expense included in noninterest expense was $0.9 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and $1.0 million and $2.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. The amortization expense was offset by tax credits of $1.0 million and $2.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and $1.1 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 as a reduction to our federal tax provision.
