Note 15. | Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
In the normal course of business, the Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the balance sheet. The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement Patriot has in particular classes of financial instruments. The contractual amounts of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit represent the maximum amount of potential accounting loss should: the contract be fully drawn upon; the customer default; and the value of any existing collateral becomes worthless. Patriot applies its credit policies to entering commitments and conditional obligations and, as with its lending activities, evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. Management believes that it effectively mitigates the credit risk of these financial instruments through its credit approval processes, establishing credit limits, monitoring the on-going creditworthiness of recipients and grantees, and the receipt of collateral as deemed necessary. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, financial instruments with credit risk are as follows:
(In thousands) |  |  |
|  | As of December 31, |

Home equity lines of credit |  |  | 19,330 |  |  |  | 19,727 |
Future loan commitments |  |  | 61,438 |  |  |  | 24,675 |
Financial standby letters of credit |  |  | 1,160 |  |  |  | 1,133 |
|  | $ | 179,727 |  |  |  | 117,225 |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments to extend credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the borrower. Since these commitments could expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extending credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include commercial property, residential property, deposits, and securities. The Bank has established a reserve for credit loss of $8,000 and $5,000 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Standby letters of credit are written commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Guarantees that are not derivative contracts are recorded at fair value and included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In November 2018, the Company entered two $5 million notional interest rate swaps maturing in 2029. For further information about the interest rate swaps, refer to Note 19 Derivatives.
