Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Long-Term Debt | Long-Term Debt FHLBC Borrowings In July 2014, our FHLB-member subsidiary entered into a borrowing agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. At September 30, 2019, under this agreement, our subsidiary could incur borrowings up to $2.00 billion, also referred to as “advances,” from the FHLBC secured by eligible collateral, including residential mortgage loans. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, our FHLB-member subsidiary made no additional borrowings under this agreement. Under a final rule published by the Federal Housing Finance Agency in January 2016, our FHLB-member subsidiary will remain an FHLB member through the five-year transition period for captive insurance companies. Our FHLB-member subsidiary's existing $2.00 billion of FHLB debt, which matures beyond this transition period, is permitted to remain outstanding until its stated maturity. As residential loans pledged as collateral for this debt pay down, we are permitted to pledge additional loans or other eligible assets to collateralize this debt; however, we do not expect to be able to increase our subsidiary's FHLB debt above the existing $2.00 billion maximum. At September 30, 2019, $2.00 billion of advances were outstanding under this agreement, which were classified as long-term debt, with a weighted average interest rate of 2.31% and a weighted average maturity of approximately six years. At December 31, 2018, $2.00 billion of advances were outstanding under this agreement, which were classified as long-term debt, with a weighted average interest rate of 2.52% and a weighted average maturity of seven years. Advances under this agreement incur interest charges based on a specified margin over the FHLBC’s 13-week discount note rate, which resets every 13 weeks. At September 30, 2019, total advances under this agreement were secured by residential mortgage loans with a fair value of $2.27 billion, securities with a fair value of $41 million, and $77 million of restricted cash. This agreement also requires our subsidiary to purchase and hold stock in the FHLBC in an amount equal to a specified percentage of outstanding advances. At September 30, 2019, our subsidiary held $43 million of FHLBC stock that is included in Other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. The following table presents maturities of our FHLBC borrowings by year at September 30, 2019. Table 15.1 – Maturities of FHLBC Borrowings by Year
