Additional 402(v) Disclosure [Text Block] | The amounts shown for Compensation Actually Paid have been calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and do not reflect compensation actually earned, realized, or received by the Company’s NEOs. These amounts reflect the Summary Compensation Table Total with certain adjustments as described in footnote 3 below. Compensation Actually Paid reflects the exclusions and inclusions of certain amounts for the CEO and the Non-CEO NEOs as set forth below. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Amounts in the Exclusion of Stock Awards and Option Awards column are the totals from the Stock Awards and Option Awards columns set forth in the Summary Compensation Table. Amounts in the Exclusion of Change in Pension Value column reflect the amounts attributable to the Change in Pension Value reported in the Summary Compensation Table, excluding negative values. Amounts in the Inclusion of Pension Service Cost are based on the service cost for services rendered during the listed year. While we utilize several performance measures to align executive compensation with performance, all of those measures are not presented in the Pay for Performance table. Moreover, we generally seek to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore do not specifically align the Company’s performance measures with compensation that is actually paid (as defined by SEC rules) for a particular year. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay for Performance table. While we do not consider net income to be one of the most important financial performance measures in determining overall compensation, it does impact the compensation actually paid to our CEO and other named executive officers as it is correlated with tangible book value. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans also impacts the compensation actually paid to our CEO and other named executive officers because one third of the payout under our long-term incentive plan is based upon our cumulative net charge-offs during the three-year measurement period. Our TSR directly impacts the compensation actually paid to our CEO and other named executive officers and is the primary driver of the difference between the Summary Compensation Table amounts and Compensation Actually Paid amounts in the above table. This results from the high percentage of compensation delivered through equity awards which are tied directly to share price. |  |  |

Non-GAAP Measure Description [Text Block] | We determined Growth in Tangible Book Value (“TBV”) to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Company performance to Compensation Actually Paid to our CEO and Non-CEO NEOs in 2023. This performance measure may not have been the most important financial performance measure for years 2022 and 2021, and we may determine a different financial performance measure to be the most important financial performance measure in future years. |  |  |
