Note 15 DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | 3 Months Ended
--- | ---
Mar. 31, 2012
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 15 Derivative Financial Instruments Because our current derivative agreements are not exchange-traded, we are exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the agreements. We control this risk through credit monitoring procedures including financial analysis, dollar limits and other monitoring procedures. The notional amount of our contracts does not represent our exposure to credit loss. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk Management In August and October 2011, we entered into foreign exchange forward contracts with a notional amount of $59,400 to hedge against the effect of changes in the value of the India Rupee (INR) on amounts payable to our India subsidiary, OFSPL, through February 2013. These contracts replaced those that expired in April 2011. We did not designate the foreign exchange contracts as hedges. On January 27, 2012, we terminated the remaining foreign exchange forward contracts. Our operations in Uruguay also expose us to foreign currency exchange rate risk, but we consider this risk to be insignificant. Interest Rate Management In our Servicing segment, during 2010, we entered into three interest rate swaps in order to hedge against the effects of changes in interest rates on our borrowings under our advance funding facilities. In 2011, we entered into an additional four interest rate swaps and one interest rate cap. The cap was not designated as a hedge. The following summarizes our use of swaps at March 31, 2012 to hedge the effects of changes in the interest rate environment on borrowings under our advance funding facilities:
Purpose |  | Date Opened |  | Effective Date (1) |  | Maturity |  | We Pay |  | We Receive |  | Notional Amount |  |  | Fair Value |
Not designated as hedges: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Hedge the effects of a change in 1-Month LIBOR on borrowing under a $265,000 advance funding facility (2) |  | April 2010 |  | July 2010 |  | July 2013 |  | 2.0590% |  | 1-Month LIBOR |  | $ | 250,000 |  |  | $ | (5,844 | )
Hedge the effects of a change in the lender’s commercial paper rate and 1-Month LIBOR on borrowing under an advance facility (3) |  | May 2010 and June 2010 |  | September 2010 |  | August 2013 |  | 1.5750% and 1.5275% |  | 1-Month LIBOR |  |  | 407,089 |  |  |  | (6,148 | )
Total not designated as hedges |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 657,089 |  |  |  | (11,992 | )
Designated as hedges: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Hedge the effects of changes in 1-Month LIBOR or the lenders’ commercial paper rate on advance funding facilities |  | October 2011 |  | June 2013 |  | January 2015 |  | 0.9275% and 0.9780% |  | 1-Month LIBOR |  |  | 201,892 |  |  |  | (2,407 | )
Hedge the effects of changes in 1-Month LIBOR or the lenders’ commercial paper rate on advance funding facilities (4) |  | December 2011 |  | February 2012 |  | January 2015 |  | 0.7000% and 0.6825% |  | 1-Month LIBOR |  |  | 464,834 |  |  |  | (1,157 | )
Total designated as hedges |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 666,726 |  |  |  | (3,564 | )
Total |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 1,323,815 |  |  | $ | (15,556 | )
(1) | The effective date of the swap is the date from which monthly settlements begin to be computed.
(2) | We originally designated this swap as a cash flow hedge; however, the hedging relationship failed to meet the effectiveness criterion both for the third quarter of 2011 and on a prospective basis beyond the third quarter because declines in advances pledged as collateral to the hedged debt resulted in lower than anticipated borrowings. As a result, we discontinued hedge accounting for this hedging relationship effective July 1, 2011 and began amortizing to earnings the $6,179 of deferred losses in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. Unamortized deferred losses were $3,862 at March 31, 2012. Amortization will continue until the related advance facility matures in July 2013. The balance outstanding under the advance facility at March 31, 2012 was $149,805.
(3) | The hedging relationship was terminated when the advance facility was assumed on March 5, 2012 by HLSS as part of the HLSS Transaction. See Note 4 for additional information regarding the match funded liabilities assumed by HLSS Holdings.
(4) | Projected net settlements on the swaps for the next twelve months total approximately $1,300 of payments to the counterparties.
