This section describes the material elements of selected laws and regulations applicable to the Bank.us. The descriptions are not intended to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the statutes and

regulations described. Changes in applicable laws or regulations, and in their application by regulatory agencies cannot be predicted, butpredicted; however, they may have a material effect on theour business and results of the Bank.results.
On September 30, 2018, we completed the merger of Zions Bancorporation, the Bank’sour former holding company, with and into Zions Bancorporation, N.A., sometimes referred to herein as the “restructuring.” More information about the restructuring and its effects can be found in the proxy statement filed by Zions Bancorporation with the SEC on July 24, 2018. In connection with completing the restructuring, we also received approval of an application filed with the Financial Stability Oversight Council (“FSOC”) seeking a determination that the Bank iswe are not “systemically important” as defined by provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”). As a result of the restructuring and FSOC approval:
The Bank is the top-level publicly-traded entity within our corporate structure.
The Bank is no longer subject to:
| |
◦ | Examinations by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“FRB”). The Bank’s primary regulator is the OCC and continues to be subject to examinations by the Bureau for Consumer Finance Protection, commonly referred to as the CFPB, with respect to consumer financial regulations; |
| |
◦ | Certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act, as more fully described below; |
| |
◦ | The Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), but remains subject to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including the reporting requirements thereunder. However, this will not inhibit the Bank’s ability to raise capital. The Bank is subject to OCC regulations governing securities offerings and continues to make filings required under the Exchange Act with the SEC as a voluntary filer. |
The banking and financial services business in which we engage is and remains highly regulated. Such regulation is intended among other things, to improve the stability of banking and financial companies and to protect the interests of customers including both loan customers and depositors, and taxpayers. These regulations are not however, generally intended to protect the interests of our shareholders or creditors, and in fact may have the consequence of reducing returns to our shareholders. Banking laws and regulations promulgated thereunder have given financial regulators expanded powers over many aspects of the financial services industry, which have reduced, and may continue to reduce, returns earned by shareholders.
Legislative changes to laws governing the financial industry occur frequently; somefrequently. Some of this legislation materially affects the manner in which we and other financial institutions operate, including increasing the costs and other burdens of conducting our businesses. In addition, the banking agencies regularly promulgate new regulations or modify existing regulations, which also have significant impact on the financial industry. The content and impact of such regulatory changes cannot presently be determined. The Bank isWe are committed to both satisfying regulatory expectations and providing attractive shareholder returns. However, given the ever-evolving regulatory environment, the results of these efforts cannot yet be known.
General
The Bank isWe are subject to the provisions of the National Bank Act and other statutes governing national banks, as well as the rules and regulations of the OCC, the CFPB, and the FDIC. It isWe are also subject to examination and supervision by the OCC and examination by the CFPB in respect of federal consumer financial regulations. The Bank,We, as well as some of itsour subsidiaries, isare also subject to regulation by other federal and state agencies. These regulatory agencies may exert considerable influence over our activities through their supervisory and examination roles. Our brokerage and investment advisory subsidiaries are regulated by the SEC, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and/or, and state securities regulators.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
The National Bank Act
Prior to the restructuring, Zions Bancorporation’s corporate affairs were governed by Utah state law, and securities law matters were governed by the federal securities laws, including the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), as administered by the SEC. Each of these legal regimesframeworks is well-developed and used widely by public companies.
Following the restructuring, the Bank’sour corporate affairs are governed by the National Bank Act and related regulations administered by the OCC. With respect to securities matters, the Bank iswe are not subject to the Securities Act, but isare subject to OCC regulations governing securities offerings. The Bank’sOur common stock and certain other securities are registered, or deemed registered, under the Exchange Act, which vests the OCC with the power to administer and enforce certain sections of the Exchange Act applicable to banks, such as the Bank, though the Bank continueswe continue to make filings required by the Exchange Act with the SEC as a voluntary filer. These statutory and regulatory regimesframeworks are not as well developedwell-developed as the corporate and securities law regimesframeworks applicable to many other publicly held corporations. See discussion under “Risk Factors.”
The Dodd-Frank Act
The Dodd-Frank Act and related regulations broadly affect the financial services industry. Among other things, the Dodd-Frank Act involves mandatory divestiture of certain equity investments, increasingincreased regulation of executive and incentive-based compensation, requiring banks to pay increased bank fees to regulatory agencies, and requiring numerous other provisions aimed at strengthening the sound operation of the financial services sector.
Regulations promulgated under the Dodd-Frank
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Act require many banks to maintain greater levels of capital and liquid assets than was generally the case prior to the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act and limit the forms of capital that such banks rely upon for regulatory purposes. Certain bank holding companies and other financial institutions, known as systemically important financial institutions, or SIFIs, are required to adhere to “enhanced prudential supervision” requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act and the annual Comprehensive Capital Analysis (“CCAR”) process administered by the FRB, which in effect requires SIFIs to maintain capital based on hypothetical scenarios dictated by the FRB.Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”). As a result of the restructuring and FSOC approval, the Bank iswe are no longer subject to these requirements (including the prior non-objection requirement undercapital and CCAR for declaring any dividends or share repurchases), or the liquidityrequirements. However, we continue to conduct internal stress testing and capital management measures that are similar to CCAR requirements, applicable to SIFIs. However, the Bank continues to beand remain subject to the OCC’s heightened standard guidelines, which establish enhanced requirements for national banks with assets of $50 billion or more, and other regulatory requirements that may reduce itsour flexibility to return capital to shareholders and respond to other market developments and opportunities in such areas as capital raising and acquisitions. Additionally, in May 2018, the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act, also known as “the Crapo Bill,” was signed into law, reducingopportunities. These regulatory requirements include the OCC’s heightened standard guidelines, which establish minimum standards for many bankingcertain large insured financial institutions, such as us, for the design and exemptingimplementation of a risk governance framework and for board oversight of such framework’s design and implementation.
We also remain subject to the Bank from the capital planning actions as required by the Dodd-Frank Act.
The Dodd-Frank Act’s provisions and related regulations alsothat affect the fees we must pay to regulatory agencies and the pricing of certain products and services, including debit card interchange fees and the following:
The assessment base for federal deposit insurance, was changed to consolidated assets less tangible capital instead of the amount of insured deposits.
The federal prohibition on the payment of interest on business transaction accounts was repealed.
The FRB was authorized to issue and did issue regulations governing debit card interchange fees.among others.
The Dodd-Frank Act also created the CFPB, which is responsible for promulgating regulations designed to protect consumers’ financial interests and examining large financial institutions for compliance with, and enforcing, those regulations. The Dodd-Frank Act adds prohibitions on unfair, deceptive or abusive acts and practices to the scope of consumer protection regulations overseen and enforced by the CFPB. The Dodd-Frank Act subjected national banks to the possibility of further regulation by restricting the preemption of state laws by federal laws. Restricting the scope of federal preemption could burden national banks with the requirement that they also comply with certain state laws covering matters already covered by federal law. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act gives greater power to state attorneys general to pursue legal actions against banking organizations for violations of federal law.

The BankWe, and other companies subject to the Dodd-Frank Act, are subjectmust adhere to a number of requirements regarding the time, manner, and form of compensation given to its key executives and other personnel receiving incentive compensation, which are being imposed through the supervisory process as well as published guidance and proposed rules.compensation. These restrictions imposed by the Dodd-Frank Act include documentation and governance, deferral, risk-balancing, and clawback requirements. Any deficiencies in compensation practices that are identified may be incorporated into the organization’s supervisory ratings, which can affect its ability to make acquisitions or engage in other activities, or could result in regulatory enforcement actions.
During the second quarter of 2016, the U.S. financial regulators, including the FRB and the SEC, proposed revised rules on incentive-based payment arrangements at specified regulated entities having at least $1 billion in total assets (including the Bank). The proposed revised rules would establish general qualitative requirements applicable to all covered entities, additional specific requirements for entities with total consolidated assets of at least $50 billion, such as the Bank, and further, more stringent requirements for those with total consolidated assets of at least $250 billion. The general qualitative requirements include: (i) prohibiting incentive arrangements that encourage inappropriate risks by providing excessive compensation; (ii) prohibiting incentive arrangements that encourage inappropriate risks that could lead to a material financial loss; (iii) establishing requirements for performance measures to appropriately balance risk and reward; (iv) requiring board of director oversight of incentive arrangements; and (v) mandating appropriate record-keeping. For larger financial institutions, including the Bank, the proposed revised regulations would also introduce very prescriptive requirements relating to the types and percentages, the timing of the realization, and the risk of forfeiture of incentive compensation awarded to “senior executive officers” and “significant risk-takers.” The regulators have not yet issued any final rules.
Capital Standards -– Basel Framework
In 2013, the FRB, FDIC, and OCC published final rules (the “Basel III capital rules”) establishing a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations. The Basel III capital rules effectively replaced the Basel I capital rules and implemented the Basel Committee’s December 2010 framework, commonly referred to as Basel III, for strengthening international capital standards as well as certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The Basel III capital rules substantially revised the risk-based capital requirements applicable to bank holding companies and depository institutions, including the Bank, compared to the Basel I U.S. risk-based capital rules. The Basel III capital rules became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015 and were subject to phase-in periods for certain of their components. In November 2017, the FRB, FDIC and OCC published a final rule that extended the 2017 transition provisions for certain U.S. Basel III capital rules for non-advanced approaches banks, such as the Bank. Effective January 1, 2018, the final rule retains the 2017 Basel III transitional treatment of certain DTAs and mortgage servicing assets, among others. As a result, since January 1, 2018, our DTAs and mortgage servicing assets retained their 2017 risk weight treatment until the federal banking regulators revise the extended transitional treatment under the November 2017 transitional rule.
The Basel III capital rules define the components of capital and address other issues affecting the numerator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios. The Basel III capital rulesratios and also address risk weights and other issues affecting the denominator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios and replaced the risk-weighting approach derived from Basel I capital accords of the Basel Committee, with a more risk-sensitive approach based, in part, on the standardized approach in the Basel Committee’s 2004 Basel II capital accords. The Basel III capital rules also implemented the requirements of Section 939A of the Dodd-Frank Act to remove references to credit ratings from the federal banking agencies’ rules.
ratios. The Basel III capital rules, among other things, (i)(1) introduced a new capital measure called “Common Equity Tier 1” (“CET1”), (ii)(2) specified that Tier 1 capital consists of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 capital” instruments meeting specified requirements, (iii)(3) applied most deductions/adjustments to regulatory capital measures to CET1 and not to the other components of capital, thus potentially requiring higher levels of CET1 in order to meet minimum ratios, and (iv)(4) expanded the scope of the deductions/adjustments from capital, as compared towith prior regulations.
Under the Basel III capital rules, the minimum capital ratiosratio requirements are as follows:
•4.5% CET1 to risk-weighted assets;
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
•6.0% Tier 1 capital (i.e., CET1 plus Additional Tier 1) to risk-weighted assets;
•8.0% Total capital (i.e., Tier 1 plus Tier 2) to risk-weighted assets; and
•4.0% Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets as reported on consolidated financial statements (known as the “leverage ratio”).
As of January 1, 2019, theThe Basel III capital rules also require the Bankus to maintain a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress, composed entirely of CET1, on top of the minimum risk-weighted asset ratios, effectively resulting in minimum ratios of (i)(1) CET1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7.0%, (ii)(2) Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.5%, and (iii)(3) Total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 10.5%. Banking institutions with a ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the capital conservation buffer face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
The severity of the constraint depends on the amount of the shortfall and the institution’s “eligible retained income” (that is four quarter trailing net income, net of distributions and tax effect not reflected in net income).
The Basel III capital rules also prescribed a standardized approach for calculating risk-weighted assets that expanded the risk-weighting categories from Basel I-derived categories (0%, 20%, 50%, and 100%) to a much larger and more risk-sensitive number of categories, depending on the nature of the assets, generally ranging from 0% for U.S. Governmentgovernment and agency securities, to 600% for certain equity exposures, to 1,250% for certain securitization exposures, and resulting in higher risk weights for a variety of asset categories. In addition, the Basel III capital rules provided more advantageous risk weights for derivatives and repurchase-style transactions cleared through a qualifying central counterparty and increased the scope of eligible guarantors and eligible collateral for purposes of credit risk mitigation.
On July 9, 2019, the federal banking agencies issued a final rule to simplify certain aspects of the regulatory capital rules for “nonadvanced approach” banking organizations. The final rule simplifies the regulatory capital requirements for mortgage servicing assets, certain deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences, and investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions. The final rule replaces multiple deduction thresholds with a single 25% deduction threshold for each of these categories and requires that a 250% risk weight be applied to mortgage servicing assets and deferred tax assets that are not deducted from capital.
As allowed under the Basel III capital rules, provided for a number of deductions from and adjustments to CET1. These include, for example, the requirement that mortgage servicing rights, DTAs dependent upon future taxable income, and significant investments in common equity issued by nonconsolidated financial entities be deducted from CET1 to the extent that any one such category exceeds 10% of CET1 or all such categories in the aggregate exceed 15% of CET1. The application of this part of the rule did not result in any deductions from CET1 for us.
Under prior Basel I capital standards, the effects of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) items included in capital were excluded for purposes of determining regulatory capital and capital ratios. As a “non-advanced approaches banking organization,” we made a one-time permanent election as of January 1, 2015 to continue to exclude thesethe effects of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) items as allowed under the Basel IIIin determining regulatory capital rules.and capital ratios.
Basel III also required additional regulatory capital disclosures to be made that are commonly referred to as “Pillar 3” disclosures. These disclosures require the Bankus to make prescribed regulatory disclosures on a quarterly basis regarding itsour capital structure adequacy and risk-weighted assets. The BankWe began publishing these Pillar 3 disclosures in 2015, and such disclosures are available on the Bank’sour website.
The Basel Committee has issued a series of updates that propose other changes to capital regulations. In one of these, the Basel Committee finalized a revised framework for calculating minimum capital requirements for market risk, which is expected to increase market risk capital requirements for most banking organizations. The Basel Committee has setwith an effective date for reporting under the revised framework for market risk capital of January 1, 2022. We are currently not subject to the market risk capital rules as we do not engage in substantial trading activity. The U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies have not yet proposed rules implementing these revisions for U.S. banking organizations. The BankWe met all capital adequacy requirements under the Basel III capital rules as of December 31, 2018.2020.
Capital Planning and Stress Testing
As a result of the successful completion of the restructuring and FSOC approval described elsewhere in this report, and the enactment of the Crapo Bill, the Bank is no longer required to participate in the FRB’s CCAR process or publicly disclose the results of stress testing or the Bank’s proposed capital actions. However, the Bank intends toWe continue to release the results of its internal stress tests, published to its website, as stress testing is the Bank’s
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
primary method of assessing capital adequacy. Prior to elimination of this requirement, however, the Bank submitted its 2018 capital plan and stress test results to the FRB. In its capital plan, the Bank was required to forecast for nine quarters, under a variety of hypothetical economic scenarios, its estimated regulatory capital ratios, and its generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) tangible common equity ratio. On June 21, 2018, we filed a Form 8-K with the SEC presenting the results of the Bank’s 2018 Dodd-Frank Act stress tests (“DFAST”). The results of the stress test demonstrated that the Bank had sufficient capital to withstand a severe hypothetical economic downturn. Detailed disclosure of the Bank’s 2018 DFAST results can also be found on our website. The Bank expects to continue to utilize its internal stress testing as an important mechanism to inform itsour decisions on the appropriate level of capital, based upon actual and hypothetically-stressedhypothetically stressed economic conditions. The stress test results reflect a set of forward-looking stress tests based upon hypothetical economic scenarios generated in conjunction with Moody's Analytics. Moody’s Protracted Slump scenario, a downside 4% scenario, is the primary stress scenario we considered for our internal stress scenario, certain variables of which we adjusted to test certain idiosyncrasies that may be unique to us. Detailed disclosure of our historical internal stress test results can be found on our website. The 2020 internal stress test included hypothetical scenarios reflective of the ongoing economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of the stress test indicated that we would maintain capital ratios at levels adequate for our risk profile throughout the nine-quarter horizon for the hypothetical stress test.
Liquidity
Historically, regulationregulation and monitoring of bank liquidity has been addressed as a supervisory matter, both in the United StatesU.S. and internationally, without required formulaic measures. However, in January 2016, the FRB and other banking regulators adoptedenacted final rules (“Final Liquidity Coverage Ratio (“LCR”) Rule”) implementing a U.S. version of the Basel Committee’s LCR requirement. The LCR is intended to ensure that banks hold sufficient amounts of securities and other liquid assets to cover the anticipated net cash outflows during a hypothetical acute 30-day stress scenario. The Final LCR Rule applies to large, internationally active banking organizations (those
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
with at least $250 billion in total assets or at least $10 billion in on-balance sheet foreign exposure) and a modified, less stringent rule applies to bank holding companies and savings and loan holding companies that have at least $50 billion in total assets but are not internationally active banking organizations.
Following the restructuring, the Bank is no longer subject to. While the Final LCR Rule despite having greater than $50 billiondoes not apply to us, we manage liquidity in total assets. The Bank continuesaccordance with the Basel III liquidity requirements. Furthermore, we utilize internal liquidity stress tests as our primary tool for establishing and managing liquidity guidelines including, but not limited to, maintain strong on-balance sheet liquidityholdings of investment securities and a portfolio ofother liquid assets, comparable to requirements in the rule.maintaining levels of readily available contingency funding, concentrations of funding sources, and maturity profile of liabilities.
Financial Privacy and Cyber Security
The federal banking regulators have adoptedenacted rules that limit the ability of banks and other financial institutions to disclose non-publicnonpublic information about consumers to non-affiliatednonaffiliated third parties. These limitationsparties, including provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which require disclosure offinancial institutions to disclose privacy policies to consumers and, in some circumstances, allow consumers to prevent disclosure of certain personal information to a non-affiliatednonaffiliated third party. These regulations affect how consumer information is transmitted through diversified financial companies and conveyed to outside vendors. In addition, consumers may also prevent disclosure of certain information among affiliated companies that is assembled or used to determine eligibility for a product or service, such as that shown on consumer credit reports and asset and income information from applications. Consumers also have the option to direct banks and other financial institutions not to share information about transactions and experiences with affiliated companies for the purpose of marketing products or services. Federal law makes it a criminal offense, except in limited circumstances, to obtain or attempt to obtain customer information of a financial nature by fraudulent or deceptive means.
In October 2016, the federal banking regulators jointly issued an advance notice of proposed rulemaking on enhanced cyber risk management standards that areis intended to increase the operational resilience of large and interconnected entities under their supervision. The advance noticeAlthough the joint proposal was withdrawn in early 2020, cybersecurity remains a regulatory priority and is likely to be the subject of proposed rulemaking addressed five categories of cyber standards: (1) cyber risk governance; (2) cyber risk management; (3) internal dependency management; (4) external dependency management; and (5) incident response, cyber resilience, and situational awareness. The comment period expired in February 2017; however, the regulators have not yet issued any revised proposed rules or final rules.future rulemaking.
State regulators have been increasingly active in implementing privacy and cybersecurity standards and regulations. Recently, several states have adoptedenacted regulations requiring certain financial institutions to implement cybersecurity programs and providing detailed requirements with respect to these programs, including datedata encryption requirements. Many states have also recently implemented or modified their data breach notification and data privacy requirements. In June 2018, the California legislature passed the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”), which is scheduled to taketook effect on January 1, 2020. On November 3, 2020, the CCPA was amended and expanded by the approval of California ballot initiative, Proposition 24, known as the California Privacy Rights Act (the “CPRA”). The CCPA, whichas amended, covers businesses that obtain or access personal information on California resident consumers,residents, grants consumersthem enhanced privacy rights and
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
control over their personal information, and imposes significant requirements on covered companies with respect to consumerindividual data privacy rights. Some of the rights afforded to California residents also extend to California employees, though the CPRA amendments now exempt certain employee information and employer usage from some of the CPRA provisions until at least January 1, 2023. Other states have implemented, or are considering, similar privacy laws. We expect this trend of state-level activity to continue and are continually monitoring developments in the states in which we operate. Other states have implemented, or are considering, similar privacy laws.
In May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”) established new requirements regarding the handling of personal data.data of European Union (“EU”) residents. We believe the applicability of the GDPR to us is minimal as we do not offer goods or services to EU residents or monitor their behaviors. Data and cybersecurity laws and regulations are evolving rapidly, remain a focus of state and federal regulators, and will continue to have a significant impact on our risk management practices.
Prompt Corrective Action
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (“FDICIA”) requires each federal banking agency to take prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions, including but not limited to those that fall below one or more prescribed minimum capital ratios. Pursuant to FDICIA, the FDIC promulgated regulations defining the following five categories in which an insured depository institution will be placed, based on the level of its capital ratios: well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, under-capitalized,undercapitalized, significantly under-capitalized, and critically under-capitalized. Under the prompt corrective action provisions of FDICIA as modified
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
by the Basel III capital rules, an insured depository institution will generally will be classified as well-capitalized if it has a CET1 ratio of at least 6.5%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 8%, a total capital ratio of at least 10% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5%, and. In addition, an insured depository institution will generally will be classified as under-capitalized if its CET1 ratio is under 4.5%, its total risk-based capital ratio is less than 8%, its Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio is less than 6%, or its Tier 1 leverage ratio is less than 4%. An institution that, based upon its capital levels, is classified as “well-capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” or “under-capitalized,” may be treated as though it were in the next lower capital category if the appropriate federal banking agency, after notice and opportunity for hearing, determines that an unsafe or unsound condition or an unsafe or unsound practice warrants such treatment. At each successive lower capital category, an insured depository institution is subject to more restrictions and prohibitions, including restrictions on growth, restrictions on interest rates paid on deposits, restrictions or prohibitions on payment of dividends and restrictions on the acceptance of brokered deposits. Furthermore, if a bank is classified in one of the under-capitalized categories, it is required to submit a capital restoration plan to the Federalfederal bank regulator.

HUMAN CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
We are proud of our employees who bring their unique, diverse talents to work each day. Our management and Board value our employees and are committed to identifying, recognizing, and creating fulfilling opportunities for people within our organization, and rewarding them for their contributions to our success.
COVID-19 has had a significant impact on how we work and the work we perform. At the outset of the pandemic, we quickly transitioned more than 70% of our employees to working remotely and implemented safety procedures
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
and policies to keep our branch employees as safe as possible while they performed essential in-person services. We were also heavily involved in supporting customers with PPP loans, rewarding employees directly involved in the effort with meaningful incentives, and paying $1,000 bonuses to all our employees with salaries less than $150,000 for supporting this important effort.
Our total full-time equivalent employees at December 31, 2020 was 9,678, a decrease of 5% from the prior year period. The following schedule describes certain demographic attributes of our employees.
Schedule 1
| | | | | | | | | | | |

| Non-management | 60 | % | | 37 | % |
| Overall | 58 | % | | 35 | % |
We have an exceptional team of women senior leaders that was recognized as one of five “Top Teams” for 2020 in American Banker magazine’s issue of the “Most Powerful Women in Banking and Finance.” This year marks the fifth time we have been honored as a Top Team. Additionally, in the November 2020 issue of American Banker magazine, we were honored among 85 of the “Best Banks to Work For in 2020,” and we ranked sixth among large banks with assets greater than $10 billion. We have been recognized on this list for all eight years of its existence.
We manage our human capital through the following programs and initiatives:
Cultivating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment for our customers and our employees
We believe in an environment where people are respected and valued, regardless of their differences, along with a talented workforce that reflects our diverse communities. We also believe that our performance is stronger when we are able to draw upon the talents and experience of a diverse team of employees.
Our 2020 Corporate Responsibility Report highlights several achievements in this area. For example, our Banker Development Program, College Internship Program, and Mentor Program have significant participation from women and minorities.
Throughout the organization, employee business resource groups foster a sense of community and enable greater connectivity and support among employees through forum meetings and discussions. This includes groups for African Americans, Hispanic/Latinx, LGBTQIA, and women, among others. These groups are open to all employees and offer networking and initiatives that support our commitment to diversity, both internally and externally.
Attracting and developing talent for long-term success
We are committed to recruiting and retaining the most qualified individuals who reflect the diversity of the markets we serve, to helping our employees grow in their careers, and to actively developing talent for future leadership opportunities. As we attract and hire talent, we proactively consider the demand for competencies that will be needed within the workforce of the future.
We are proud to offer more than 2,000 learning options for employees to create tailored learning plans for personal and professional development. We make available new manager programs, tuition reimbursement, education sponsorship opportunities, job shadowing, coaching, and formal mentoring programs. Our talent development program and individual development plans focus on education, experience, and exposure to help create well-rounded, successful employees.
Recognizing, engaging, and rewarding our employees
We support a culture of integrity, engagement, and achievement through comprehensive rewards and recognition. Our programs are designed to enhance the employee experience, drive retention, promote recognition, and reward
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
high performance. We provide meaningful upside opportunities for those who take accountability for business objectives that help us deliver superior results while reducing risk.
We routinely assess pay equity among employees across our organization by analyzing potential disparities in pay based on gender, minority status, and other factors. These actions help us compensate employees fairly. During 2020, we enlisted the services of an independent third party who found that after adjusting for relevant variables such as education, experience, and geography, women are paid, on average, approximately 99% of what men are paid, and minorities are paid approximately 98% of what non-minorities are paid. In a relatively few cases, we identified outlier situations that have been subsequently addressed.
Our employees provide regular feedback through our robust listening strategy, which includes quarterly leadership calls, biannual employee opinion surveys, and targeted focus groups. These forums for employee input continue to help strengthen working relationships with managers, improve clarity of organizational purpose and goals, and reinforce our guiding principles and code of business conduct and ethics.
Finally, we value work-life balance and strive to create a work environment that supports our employees with mental, physical, social, and financial wellness. Some of our key benefits include the following:
•Corporate match for our 401(k) plan of 4.5% of earnings, plus annual profit-sharing contributions;
•Health care plan options including behavioral health, wellness, and autism spectrum disorder services;
•Preventive prescription drug coverage not subject to deductibles;
•Paid parental program allowing time off for mothers, fathers, and domestic partners;
•Adoption assistance program; and
•Company paid time off for charitable contributions to our giving campaign and volunteer opportunities.

The Bank generatesWe generate revenue by taking prudent and appropriately priced risks. These factors are outlined in the Bank’sour Risk AppetiteManagement Framework.
The Bank’sOur Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Risk Oversight Committee of the Board, approved an Enterprisea Risk Management Framework, and appointed an Enterprise Risk Management Committee (“ERMC”) to oversee and implement the Risk Management Framework. The ERMC is comprised of senior management of the Bank and is chaired by the Chief Risk Officer. The Bank’sOur most significantmaterial risk exposure has traditionally come from the acceptance of credit risk inherent in prudent extensionextensions of credit to relationship customers. In addition to credit risk, these committees also monitor the following level one risk areas: market and interest rate risk,risk; liquidity risk,risk; strategic and business and corporate governance risk, operational/risk; operational risk; technology risk,risk; cyber risk, model risk,risk; capital/financial reporting risk,risk; legal/compliance risk (including regulatory risk),; and reputational risk, as outlined in the bank’sour risk taxonomy. Although not a specific risk identified in our risk taxonomy, an additional risk factor related to the COVID-19 pandemic has been added below. Additional governance and oversight includesinclude Board-approved policies and management committees with direct focus on these specific risk categories. Incorporated into each of these level one risks mentioned previously is third party vendor risk, which the Bank views as critical in the management and oversight of vendors.
Although not comprehensive, the following describes several risk factors that are significantmaterial to the Bank:us:
Credit Risk
Credit quality has adversely affected us in the past and may adversely affect us in the future.
Credit risk is one of our most significant risks. A decline in the strength of the U.S. economy in general or the local economies in which we conduct operations could result in, among other things, deterioration in credit quality and/or reduced demand for credit, including a resultant adverse effect on the income from our loan portfolio, an increase in charge-offs, and an increase in the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”).ACL.

We have concentrations of risk in our loan portfolio, including loans secured by real estate, oil and gas-related lending, and leveraged and enterprise value lending, and oil and gas-related lending, which may have unique risk characteristics that may adversely affect our results.
Concentration or counterparty risk could adversely affect the Bank.us. Concentration risk across our loan and investment portfolios could pose significant additional credit risk to the Bankus due to exposures which perform in a similar fashion. Counterparty risk could also pose additional credit risk.
We engage in commercial term real estate lending, as well as construction and land acquisition and development lending, as well as commercial term lending, primarily in our westernWestern states footprint. The Bank, as a whole, has relatively larger concentrations of such lending than many other peer institutions. In addition, weWe also have a concentration in oil and gas-related lending, primarily in Texas. Both commercial real estate (“CRE”) and oil and gas-related lending are subject to specific risks, including volatility and potential significant and prolonged declines in collateral-valuescollateral values and activity levels. In addition,Because our real estate lending is concentrated in the westernWestern states, andcollateral values therein that area may behave differently than in other parts of the United States.U.S. We may have other unidentified concentrated or correlated risks in our loan portfolio.

Our business is highly correlated to local economic conditions in a specific geographic region of the United States.U.S.
The Bank providesWe provide a fullwide range of banking products and related services through itsour local management teams and unique brands in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. Approximately 79% and 78%74% of the Bank’sour total net interest income relates to our banking operations in Utah,Utah/Idaho, Texas, and California for both of the years ended December 31, 20182020 and December 31, 2017,2019, respectively. As a result of this geographic concentration, our financial results depend largely upon economic conditions in these market areas. Accordingly, adverse economic conditions affecting these three states in particular could significantly affect our consolidated operations and financial results. For example, our credit risk could be elevated to the extent that our lending practices in these three states focus on borrowers or groups of borrowers with similar economic characteristics, which are similarly affected by the same adverse economic events. At December 31, 2018,2020, loan balances associated with our banking operations in Utah,Utah/Idaho, Texas, and California comprised 79%76% of the Bank’sour commercial lending portfolio, 73% of the CRE lending portfolio, and 69%70% of the consumer lending portfolio.

Market and Interest Rate RisksRisk
Failure to effectively manage our interest rate risk and prolonged periods of low interest rates could adversely affect us.our results.
Net interest income is the largest component of our revenue. A prolonged period of low interest rates, such as the Bank’s revenue.one that exists today, has a materially adverse impact on our net interest income and results in declining net interest margins. Interest rate risk is managed by the Asset Liability Management Committee, which is established by the Bank’s Board of Directors. Failure to effectively manage our interest rate risk could adversely affect the Bank.Committee. Factors beyond the Bank’sour control can significantly influence the interest rate environment and increase the Bank’sour risk. These factors include competitive pricing pressures for our loans and deposits, adverse shifts in the mix of deposits and other funding sources, and volatile market interest rates resulting from general economic conditions and the policies of governmental and
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
regulatory agencies, in particular the FRB. As interest rates on earning assets decline, our cost of funds may not decline commensurately.
Over the courseSome components of the last year,our balance sheet are very sensitive to rising and falling rates. On an ongoing basis, we have maintained a moderate level of asset-sensitivity as the market rates seemed more likely to increase than to decrease. As risks shifted at the end of the year to be more balanced between higher or lower rates in the future, the Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) has undertakenuse various strategies to reduce the level of asset-sensitivity,manage our interest rate risk, such as entering into rate floor agreements and increasing the use of interest rate swaps, designated as cash flow hedges to synthetically convert floating-rate assets to fixed-rate. We anticipate moving towards a less asset-sensitive interest rate risk position over the course of 2019.caps and floors.
Interest rates on the Bank’sour financial instruments might be subject to change based on developments related to LIBOR, which could adversely impact the Bank’sour revenue, expenses, and value of those financial instruments.
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority, the authority regulating the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”),LIBOR, along with various other regulatory bodies, announced that LIBOR would likely be discontinued at the end of 2021. LIBOR makes up the most liquid and common interest rate index in the world and is commonly referenced in financial instruments. We have exposure to LIBOR in various aspects througha variety of our financial contracts. Instruments that may be impacted include loans, securities, and derivatives, among other financial contracts indexed to LIBOR and that mature after December 31, 2021.
While there is no consensus on what reference rate or rates may become acceptedacceptable alternatives to LIBOR, in May 2018, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of U.S. financial market participants, selected by the
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Federal Reserve Bank of New York, started in May 2018 to publish the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as an alternative to LIBOR. SOFR is a broad measure of the cost of overnight borrowings collateralized by Treasury securities that was selected by the Alternative Reference RateRates Committee due to the depth and robustness of the U.S. Treasury repurchase market. At this time, it is impossible to predictnot certain whether SOFR will become an accepted alternative to LIBOR.LIBOR, especially for the types of commercial loans that constitute a major portion of our loan portfolio.
The market transition away from LIBOR to an alternative reference rate, such as SOFR, is complex and could have a range of adverse effects on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In particular, any such transition could:
•adversely affect the interest rates paid or received on, the revenue and expenses associate with, and the value of, our floating-rate obligations, loans, deposits, derivatives, and other financial instruments tiedindexed to LIBOR, rates, or other securities or financial arrangements given LIBOR’s dominant role in determining market interest rates globally;
•result in a replacement rate for LIBOR that does not adjust for changes in the credit environment and does not have a term structure;
•prompt inquiries or other actions from regulators inwith respect ofto our preparation and readiness for the replacement of LIBOR with an alternative reference rate;
•result in disputes, litigation or other actions with counterparties regarding the interpretation and enforceability of certain fallback language in LIBOR-based loans and securities; and
•require the transition to, or development of, appropriate systems and analytics to effectively transition our risk management processes from LIBOR-based products to those based on the applicable alternative pricing benchmark, such as SOFR.
The manner and impact of this transition, as well as the effect of these developments on our funding costs, loan and investment and trading securities portfolios, asset-liability management, and business, is uncertain.
For further information about how we manage LIBOR, market and interest rate risk, see “Interest Rate and Market Risk Management” on page 67 in MD&A.
Liquidity Risk
As a regulated entity, we are subject to capitalWe and liquidity requirements that may limit our operations and potential growth.
The Bank is subject to the comprehensive, consolidated supervision and regulation of the OCC and the FDIC, including risk-based and leverage capital ratio requirements, and Basel III liquidity requirements. Capital needs may rise above normal levels when we experience deteriorating earnings and credit quality, and our banking regulators may increase our capital requirements based on general economic conditions and our particular condition, risk profile and growth plans. Compliance with the capital requirements, including leverage ratios, may limit operations that require the intensive use of capital and could adversely affect our ability to expand or maintain present business levels. Although the Bank is not currently subject to the Final LCR Rule or the net stable funding ratio (“NSFR”), it is possible that the Bank may become subject to a liquid coverage ratio requirement or other heightened liquidity requirements in the future if the OCC or another banking regulator apply such a requirement to the Bank as a supervisory matter. In addition, the Bank may become subject to any rule implementing the NSFR that is promulgated in the future. As a result, the Bank could be required to hold a higher portion of its assets in securities and other liquid assets and a lower portion of its assets in loans. Securities and other liquid assets generally have lower yields than loans of the type made by the Bank. For a summary of the capital rules to which we are subject, see “Capital Standards – Basel Framework” on page 9 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We and/or the holders of our securities could be adversely affected by unfavorable rating actions from rating agencies.
Our ability to access the capital markets is important to our overall funding profile. This access is affected by the ratings assigned to us by rating agencies to us and particular classes of securities that we issue. The rates that we pay on our securities are also influenced by, among other things, the credit ratings that we and/orand our securities receive from
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
recognized rating agencies. Ratings downgrades to us or our securities could increase our costs or otherwise have a negative effect on our results of operations orliquidity position, financial condition or the market prices of our securities.
Changes in sources of liquidity and capital and liquidity requirements may limit our operations and potential growth.
TableOur primary source of Contentsliquidity is our supply of deposits from our customers. The continued availability of this supply depends on customers maintaining those deposits with us. While we make significant efforts to consider and plan for changes in our deposit funding, market-related forces and a wide variety of other events could impact the liquidity value we derive from our deposits.ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Liquidity requirements and sources are also subject to the comprehensive, consolidated supervision and regulation of the OCC and the FDIC, including risk-based and leverage capital ratio requirements, as well as Basel III liquidity requirements tailored to institutions with assets under $100 billion.
For information about how we manage liquidity risk, see “Liquidity Risk Management” on page 73 in MD&A.
Strategic and Business and Corporate Governance RisksRisk
Problems encountered by other financial institutions could adversely affect financial markets generally and have indirect adverse effects on us.
The commercial soundness and stability of many financial institutions may be closely interrelated as a result of credit, trading, clearing or other relationships between the institutions. As a result, concerns about, or a default or threatened default by, one institution could lead to significant market-wide liquidity and credit problems, losses or defaults by other institutions. This is sometimes referred to as “systemic risk” and may adversely affect financial intermediaries, such as clearing agencies, clearing houses, banks, securities firms and exchanges, with which we interact on a daily basis, and therefore could adversely affect us. Information security and vendor management processes are in place to actively identify, manage and monitor actual and potential impacts.
The regulation of incentive compensation under the Dodd-Frank Act may adversely affect our ability to retain our highest performing employees.
The bankBank regulatory agencies have published regulations and guidance and proposed regulations whichthat limit the manner and amount of compensation that banking organizations provide to employees. These regulations and guidance may adversely affect our ability to attract and retain key personnel. If we were to suffer such adverse effects with respect to our employees, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected, perhaps materially.
We have made, and are continuing to make, significant changes to the Bank that include, among other things, organizational restructurings, efficiency initiatives, and replacement or upgrades of certain core technologicaltechnology systems to improve our control environment and operating efficiency. The ultimate success and completion of these changes, and their effect on the Bank,us, may vary significantly from initial planning, which could materially adversely affect the Bank.us.
Over the last several years, the Bank haswe have completed numerous improvement projects, including the merger of itsour bank holding company into the Bank,Bank; combining the legal charters of our seven affiliate banks into one,one; consolidating 15 loan operations sites into two,two; replacing our core loan systems; upgrading our accounting systems,systems; installing a credit origination work flow system,system; streamlining our small business and retail lending, mortgage, wealth management and foreign exchange businesses,businesses; and investing in data quality and information security. Ongoing investment continues in a multi-year project to replace our core loan and deposit systems, a collection of customer-facing digital capabilities, and a variety of other projects to simplify how we do business.
These initiatives and changes continue to be implemented; some of the projects are fully completed,implemented and some projects are in their early stages.various stages of completion. By their very nature, projections of duration, cost, expected savings, expected efficiencies, and related items are subject to change and significant variability. There can be no certainty that we will achieve the expected benefits or other intended results associated with these projects.
We may encounter significant adverse developments in the completion and implementation of these changes.projects. These
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
may include significant time delays, cost overruns, loss of key people, technological problems, processing failures, and other adverse developments. We may also experience operational disruptions, failure, or capacity constraints due to the performance, level of concentration, replacement costs, and our dependence on third-party vendors. Any or all of these issues could result in disruptions to our systems, processes, control environment, procedures, and employees, which may adversely impact our customers and our ability to conduct business.
We have plans, controls, policies, and procedures designed to prevent or limit the negative effect of these potential adverse developments. However, there can be no assurance that any such adverse developments will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately remediated. The ultimate effect of any adverse development could subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could materially affect the Bank,us, including itsour control environment, operating efficiency, and results of operations.

Operational/Technology RisksOperational Risk
Catastrophic events including, but not limited to, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, fires, floods, and prolonged drought, and pandemics may adversely affect us and the general economy, financial and capital markets, and specific industries, and the Bank.industries.
The Bank hasWe have significant operations and a significant customer base in Utah, Texas, California, and other regions where natural and other disasters may occur. These regions are known for being vulnerable to natural disasters and other risks, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, fires, floods, prolonged droughts, and prolonged drought.other weather-related events. These types of natural catastrophic events at times have disrupted the local economy, the Bank’sour business and customers, and have posed physical risks to the Bank’sour property. In addition, catastrophic events occurring in other regions of the world may have an impact on the Bank’s customersus and in turn on the Bank.our customers. Although we have business continuity and disaster recovery programs in place, a significant catastrophic event could materially and adversely affect the Bank’sour operating results.
We could be adversely affected by failure in our internal controls.
We have established internal controls over financial reporting and other operations. Because of their inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. A failure in our internal controls could have a significant negative impact not only on our earnings, but also on the perception that customers, regulators, and investors may have of the Bank.us. We continue to devote a significant amount of effort, time, and resources to improving our controls and ensuring operational soundness and compliance with complex accounting standards and regulations. These efforts also include the management of controls to mitigate operational risks for programs and processes across the Bank.
We could be adversely affected by financial technology advancementsinternal, as well as external, fraud schemes.
We have systems and procedures in place to monitor our operations and to detect and mitigate attempts to commit fraud by both internal and external actors. We also mitigate certain of these risks through the purchase of insurance. However, there can be no certainty that we will identify, prevent or otherwise mitigate all instances of fraud that have the potential to result in material losses.
We use models in the management of the Bank. There is risk that these models are inaccurate in various ways, which can cause us to make suboptimal decisions.
We attempt to carefully develop, document, back test, and validate the models used in the management of the Bank. For example, we use models to inform our estimate of the allowance for credit losses, to manage interest rate and liquidity risk, to project stress losses in various segments of our loan and securities portfolios, and to project net revenue under stress. Models are inherently imperfect for a number of reasons and cannot perfectly predict outcomes. Management decisions based in part on such models, therefore, may be suboptimal.
We outsource various operations to third party vendors which could adversely impact our business and operational performance.
We rely on various vendors to perform operational activities to conduct our business. We have established operational controls and monitoring through our third-party vendor management programs to oversee and manage these vendors to help ensure they operate in a manner consistent with the business standards and practices that we
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
must adhere to or with which we must comply. We have developed and implemented service level agreements and contractual controls to assist us in that effort and have implemented regular reporting to monitor and manage our third-party vendors. Replacing or finding alternatives for vendors who do not perform adequately, however, can be difficult and costly and may adversely impact our customers and other non-traditional lendingoperations.
For information about how we manage operational risk, see “Operational, Technology, and banking sources.Cyber Risk Management” on page 76 in MD&A.
TheTechnology Risk
We could be adversely affected by our ability to successfullydevelop, adopt, and implement technology advancements.
Our ability to remain competitive is increasingly dependent upon our ability to maintain a critical technological capabilitycapabilities, and to identify and develop new, value-added products for existing and future customers. FailureThese technological competitive pressures arise from both traditional banking and non-traditional sources. Larger banks may have greater resources and economies of scale attendant to do somaintaining existing capabilities and developing digital and other technologies, while financial technology companies, referred to as “FinTechs,” and technology platform companies, continue to emerge and compete with traditional financial institutions across a wide variety of products and services. Our failure to remain technologically competitive could impede our time to market and reduce customer satisfaction, product accessibility, and weakenrelevance.
We could be adversely impacted by system vulnerabilities, failures or outages impacting operations and customer services such as online and mobile banking.
We rely on hundreds of information technology systems that work together in supporting internal operations and customer services. Vulnerabilities in, or a failure or outage of one or many of these systems could impact the ability to perform internal operations and provide services to customers such as online banking, mobile banking, remote deposit capture and other services dependent on system processing. These risks increase as systems and software approach the end of their useful life or require more frequent updates and modifications. We have response and recovery processes in place to address these types of issues but cannot guarantee that such occurrences will not still have an operational or customer impact.

For information about how we manage technology risk, see “Operational, Technology, and Cyber Risk Management” on page 76 in MD&A.
Cyber Risk
We are subject to a variety of system failure and cyber security risks that could adversely affect our business and financial performance.
The Board and the Risk Committee of the Board have invested significant time on overseeing management's efforts to continue to strengthen our infrastructure and staffing, and to enhance our controls while improving the client and customer experience. Cyber defense and improving our resiliency against cybersecurity threats remain a key focus at all levels of management, and of our Board.
We rely heavily on communications and information systems to conduct our business. We, our customers, and other financial institutions with which we interact, are subject to ongoing, continuous attempts to penetrate key systems by individual hackers, organized criminals, and in some cases, state-sponsored organizations. Information security risks for large financial institutions such as the Bank have increased significantly in recent years, in part because of the proliferation of new technologies such asand internet connections (e.g., Internet of things, the Internet, and mobile banking to conduct financial transactions,transactions) and the increased sophistication and activities of organized crime, hackers, terrorists, nation-states, activists, and other external third parties. Third parties with whom we or our customers do business also present operational and information security risks to us, including security breaches or failures of their own systems. The possibility of employee error, failure to follow security procedures, or malfeasance also presents these risks. In addition, to access our products and services, our customers may use personal computers, smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices that are beyond our control environment. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of our information systems could result in failures or disruptions in our customer relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan and other systems, misappropriation of funds, and theft, disclosure or misuse of proprietary Bank or customer data. While we have significant internal resources, policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the possible failure, interruption or security breach of our information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failure, interruption or security breach will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed.
As cyber threats continue to evolve, we maywill be required to expend significant additional resources to continue to modify or enhance our layers of defense or to investigate or remediate any information security vulnerabilities.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
System enhancements and updates may also create risks associated with implementing new systems and integrating them with existing ones. Due to the complexity and interconnectedness of information technology systems, the process of enhancing our layers of defense can itself create a risk of systems disruptions and security issues. In
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
addition, addressing certain information security vulnerabilities, such as hardware-based vulnerabilities, may affect the performance of our information technology systems. The ability of our hardware and software providers to deliver patches and updates to mitigate vulnerabilities and our ability to implement them in a timely manner can introduce additional risks, particularly when a vulnerability is being actively exploited by threat actors. The occurrence of any failure, interruption or security breach of our information systems could damage our reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability.
ModelFor information about how we manage cyber risk, see “Operational, Technology, and Cyber Risk
We use models Management” on page 76 in the management of the Bank. There is risk that these models are incorrect or inaccurate in various ways, which can cause us to make non-optimal decisions, and this risk causes the Bank to hold additional capital as a buffer against that risk.
We attempt to carefully develop, document, back test, and validate the models used in the management of the Bank, including, for example, models used in the management of interest rate and liquidity risk, and those used in projecting stress losses in various segments of our credit and securities portfolios, and projecting net revenue under stress. Models are inherently imperfect for a number of reasons, however, and cannot perfectly predict outcomes. Management decisions based in part on such models, therefore, can be suboptimal. In addition, in determining the Bank’s capital needs under stress testing, we attempt to specifically quantify the amounts by which model results could be incorrect, and we hold material additional amounts of capital as a buffer against this “model risk.”MD&A.
Capital/Financial Reporting RisksRisk
Internal stress testing and capital management, as well as provisions of the National Bank Act and OCC regulations, may limit our ability to increase dividends, repurchase shares of our stock, and access the capital markets.
Although we are no longer subject to the CCAR regime, weWe are required to submit stress tests to the OCC because the Bank haswe have assets in excess of the OCC $10 billion threshold, and we expect to continue to utilize stress testing as an important mechanism to inform our decisions on the appropriate level of capital, based upon actual and hypothetically-stressedhypothetically stressed economic conditions. The stress testing and other applicable regulatory requirements may, among other things, require us to increase our capital levels, limit our dividends or other capital distributions to shareholders, modify our business strategies, or decrease our exposure to various asset classes.
Under the National Bank Act and OCC regulations, certain capital transactiontransactions, including share repurchases, may be subject to the approval of the OCC. These requirements may limit our ability to respond to and take advantage of market developments.
Economic and other circumstances may require us to raise capital at times or in amounts that are unfavorable to the Bank.us.
The BankWe must maintain certain risk-based and leverage capital ratios, as required by itsour banking regulators, which can change depending upon general economic conditions, andas well as the particular conditions, risk profiles and growth plans of the Bank. Compliance with capital requirements may limit the Bank’sour ability to expand and has required, and may require, the Bankus or itsour subsidiaries to raise additional capital. These uncertainties and risks, including those created by legislative and regulatory uncertainties, may increase the Bank’sour cost of capital and other financing costs.
We could be adversely affected by accounting, financial reporting, and regulatory/regulatory compliance risk.
The Bank isWe are exposed to accounting, financial reporting, and regulatory/regulatory compliance risk. The Bank provides to its customers, invests in, and uses for its own capital, funding, and risk management needs,We use a number of complex financial products and services.services for our own capital, funding, investment and risk management needs, in addition to providing them to our customers. Estimates, judgments, and interpretations of complex and changing accounting and regulatory policies are required in order to provide and account for these products and services. Changes in our accounting policies or in accounting standards could materially affect how we report our financial results and conditions. The level of regulatory/regulatory compliance oversight has beencontinues to be heightened in recent periods as a result of rapid changes in regulations that affect financial institutions. The administration of some of these regulations and related changes has required the Bankus to comply before their formal adoption. Therefore, identification, interpretation, and
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
implementation of complex and changing accounting standards, as well as compliance with regulatory requirements, pose an ongoing risk.
The value of our goodwill may decline in the future.
As of December 31, 2018, the Bank2020, we had $1 billion of goodwill that was allocated to Amegy Bank (“Amegy”), California Bank & Trust (“CB&T”) and Zions Bank. If the fair value of a reporting unit is determined to be less than its

carrying value, the Bankwe may have to take a charge related to the impairment of itsour goodwill. Such a charge would occur if the Bankwe were to experience increases in the book value of a reporting unit in excess of the increase in the fair value of equity of a reporting unit. A significant decline in the Bank’sour expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in the business climate, slower economic growth or a significant and sustained decline in the price of the Bank’sour common stock, any or all of which could be materially impacted by many of the risk factors discusseddescribed herein, may necessitate the Bankus taking charges in the future related to the impairment of itsour goodwill. Future regulatory actions could also have a material impact on assessments of the appropriateness of the goodwill carrying value. If the Bank waswe were to conclude in the future that a write-down of itsour goodwill is necessary, itwe would record the appropriate charge, which could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’sour results of operations.

The Bank’s balance sheet includes a significant DTA. We had net DTAs of $130 million at December 31, 2018, compared with $93 million at December 31, 2017. The largest component of this asset results from additions to our ALLL for purposes of GAAP in excess of loan losses actually taken for tax purposes. Our ability to continue to record this DTA is dependent on the Bank’s ability to realize its value through net operating loss carrybacks or future projected earnings. Loss of part or all of this asset would adversely impact tangible capital. In addition, inclusion of this asset in determining regulatory capital is subject to certain limitations. Currently, no DTAs are disallowed for regulatory purposes at the Bank.

The Bank’sOur exposure to these proceedings has increased and may further increase as a result of stresses on customers, counterparties, and others arising from the past or current economic environments, new regulations promulgated under recently adoptedenacted statutes, the creation of new examination and enforcement bodies, and increasingly aggressive enforcement and legal actions against banking organizations. Anysuchmatters may result in material adverse consequences to our results of operations, financial condition or ability to conduct our business, including adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties (including(e.g., civil money penalties under applicable banking laws), injunctions, restrictions on our business activities, or other relief. Our involvement in any such matters, even if the matters are ultimately determined in our favor, could also cause significant harm to our reputation and divert management attention from the operation of our business. In general, the amounts paid by financial institutions in settlement of proceedings or investigations, including those relating to anti-money laundering matters, have been increasing dramatically. In addition, any enforcement matters could impact our supervisory and CRA ratings, which may restrict or limit our activities.

The corporate and securities laws applicable to the Bankus are not as well-developed as those applicable to a state-chartered corporation, and thiswhich may impact theour ability of the Bank to effect corporate transactions in an efficient and optimal manner.
Prior to the restructuring, the corporate affairs of the Bank’sour holding company were governed by Utah state law, and securities law matters were governed by the federal securities laws, including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as administered by the SEC. Each of these legal regimesframeworks is well-developed and used widely by public companies.
Post-restructuring, the Bank’sour corporate affairs are governed by the National Bank Act and related regulations administered by the OCC. With respect to securities matters, the Bank iswe are not subject to the Securities Act, but rather to OCC regulations governing securities offerings. The Bank’sOur common stock and certain other securities are registered or deemed registered under the Exchange Act, which vests the OCC with the power to administer and enforce certain sections of the Exchange Act applicable to banks, such as the Bank (though the Bankthough we currently makesmake, and intendsintend to continue to make, filings required by the Exchange Act with the SEC as a “voluntary filer”).voluntary filer. These OCC statutory and regulatory regimesframeworks have been used by publicly-tradedpublicly traded banking organizations relatively rarely and are not as well-developed as the corporate and securities law regimesframeworks applicable to corporations. While certain specific risks associated with operating under these regimesframeworks are discusseddescribed below, unless and until these regimesframeworks are further developed and established over time, the uncertainty of how these regimesframeworks might apply to any

given corporate or securities matters may prevent us from effecting transactions in an efficient and optimal manner or perhaps at all.
Differences between the National Bank Act and state law requirements in respect ofregarding mergers could result in the Bank not being ablehinder our ability to execute acquisitions as efficiently and advantageously as bank holding companies or other financial institutions.
Unlike state corporate law, the National Bank Act requires shareholder approval of all mergers between a national bank and another national or state bank and does not allow for exceptions in the case of various “minor” mergers, such as a parent company’s merger with a subsidiary or an acquirer’s merger with an unaffiliated entity in which the shares issued by the acquirer do not exceed a designated percentage. The National Bank Act and related regulations do not allow formay also complicate the direct merger into a national bankstructuring of a non-affiliated non-bank.certain nonbank acquisitions.
These differences could adversely affect the Bank’s,ability of the Bank and other banks registered under the National Bank Act ability to efficiently consummate acquisition transactions. In addition, such differences could make the Bankus less competitive as a potential acquirer in certain circumstances given that the Bank’sour acquisition proposal may be conditioned on Bank shareholder approval while the Bank’sour competitors’ proposals will not have such a condition.
Differences between the National Bank Act and state law could result in the Bank’s capacityreduce our ability to pay dividends andor repurchase shares at any given time being different from the capacitywhen compared with those capacities that existed for Zions Bancorporation prior to the restructuring.
The regulations and limitations applicable to the Bank relating tous regarding the payment of dividends and repurchases or redemptions of outstanding common and preferred shares differ from the limitations and considerations that applied to the Bank’sour holding company prior to the recent restructuring. While the Bank doeswe do not believe this change in legal restrictions resulting from the restructuring will constrain the Bankus from executing any capital plans that are currently contemplated or otherwise reasonably foreseeable in the near term, there can be no assurance that the change in legal restrictions will not have an adverse effect on the Bank’sour ability to pay dividends and repurchase or redeem stock in the future.
Shares of common stock of a national bank are assessable, and thiswhich may cause investors to view the Bank’sour common stock less favorably than that of Zions Bancorporation prior to the restructuring.
The National Bank Act provides that under certain circumstances the common stock of a national bank is assessable, i.e., holders may be subject to a levy for more funds if so determined by the OCC. In contrast, the common stock of state corporations is not subject to assessment. However, the OCC has confirmed that under the applicable provisions of the National Bank Act, assessability is limited to the par value of a national bank’s stock. The Bank’sOur common stock has a par value of $0.001. Moreover, according to the OCC, it has not exercised its authority to levy assessments since 1933 and views the assessability authority as a mechanism for addressing capital deficiency that has long been overtaken by developments in statute and regulation, including robust capital standards, prompt
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
corrective action requirements, and supervisory and enforcement authorities requiring an institution to maintain capital at a particular level. Nonetheless, potential investors may be unfamiliar with the concept of assessment and, as a result, view the Bankus less favorably as an investment.
The ability of investors to access financial and other reports filed by the Bankus readily could be adversely affected if such reports were not able to be made available publicly through the SEC or a system operated by the OCC comparable to that of the SEC.
The Bank hasWe have been permitted to and currently makes itsmake our Exchange Act filings as a “voluntary filer”voluntary filer with the SEC. ThereHowever, there can be no assurance however, that the OCC or SEC will continue to allow the Bankus to make filings as a voluntary filer or that the OCC will develop a comparable system for making Exchange Act filings publicly available. If the Bank’sour Exchange Act filings ceased to be as readily available as those of bank holding companies, investors could view the Bankus less favorably.

The Bank’sOur ability to issue securities in an optimal manner may be adversely affected by the fact that the OCC’s securities offering regulations and organizational structure are less well-developed than those of the SEC, which applied to the Bank’sour holding company prior to the restructuring.
The SEC maintains a well-developed regulatory regimeframework and well-staffed organization relating to securities offerings under, or exempt from, the Securities Act. For example, the SEC has developed integrated disclosure rules, which allow Exchange Act filings to be incorporated by reference into prospectuses distributed as required by the Securities Act. In addition, under the SEC’s rules seasoned issuers who are timely in their filings are permitted to use “automatic shelf registration,” allowing them to offer securities under a registration statement that is automatically effective upon filing. The OCC maintains its own securities offering regimeframework applicable to national banks and their securities offerings, with which the Bankwe will need to comply with in order to access the public capital markets. Similar to the SEC’s offering rules, the OCC’s regimeframework requires that registration statements be reviewed and declared or become effective. However, given that there are currently no other nationally-chartednationally chartered banks whose common stock has been issued under the OCC’s securities offering regime,framework, it is unknown at this point whether and how the OCC staff would review registration statements, andstatements. It is also unclear whether the OCC would apply the same mechanics for automatic shelf registration filings used by SEC-filers, or how, more generally, the OCC will function as a securities regulator. Given the extent to and manner in which the Bank haswe have accessed capital markets historically, or to which itwe currently contemplatescontemplate accessing such markets, the Bank doeswe do not believe there will be a material adverse impact on the Bank’sour ability to access capital markets effectively, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case and itcase. It is possible that operating under the OCC’s securities offering regimeframework could impede the Bank’sour ability to sell securities at the most advantageous times or to achieve optimum pricing in offerings.
The Bank isWe are subject to restrictions on permissible activities that would limit the types of business itwe may conduct and that may make acquisitions of other financial companies more challenging.
Under applicable laws and regulations, bank holding companies and banks are generally limited to business activities and investments that are related to banking or are financial in nature. The range of permissible financial activities is set forth in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and is more limited for banks than for bank holding company organizations. The differences relate mainly to insurance underwriting (but not insurance agency activities) and merchant banking (but not broker-dealer and investment advisory activities). Merchant banking authority is an important power for financial institutions that desire to engage in a full-scale investment banking business and can also be important for institutions that wish to engage in private equity and proprietary investment business lines. While historically the Bank’s holding company did not seek to engage in activities available only to bank holding companies under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the Bank is not able to engage in these activities. Loss of the bank holding company status, resulting frombecause of the restructuring, willcould make future acquisitions by the Bank of financial institutions that havewith such operations more challenging.
The Bank’sOur common stock is not an insured deposit.
Shares of the Bank’sour common stock are not a bank deposit and, therefore, losses in value are not insured by the FDIC, any other deposit insurance fund, or by any other public or private entity. Investment in shares of the Bank’sour common stock is inherently risky and is subject to the same market forces and investment risks that affect the price of common stock in any other company, including the possible loss of some or all principal invested.

Reputational Risk
The Bank isWe are presented with various reputational risk issues that could stem from operational, regulatory/regulatory, compliance, and legal risks.
Any of the aforementioned risks may give rise to adverse publicity and damaged relationships, giving rise to reputational risk. A Reputational Risk Council was established to monitor, manage, and develop strategies to effectively manage reputational risk which includes, but is not limited to, addressing communication logistics, legal, and regulatory issues.
Other Risk
Our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations have been, and will likely continue to be, adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created economic and financial disruptions that have adversely affected, and are likely to continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to negatively affect these aspects of our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, the continued effectiveness of our business continuity plan, the direct and indirect impact of the pandemic on our employees, customers, communities, counterparties and service providers, as well as other market participants, and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to the following, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations:
•Increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence and business activity generally, leading to an increased risk of delinquencies, defaults, and foreclosures.
•Ratings downgrades, credit deterioration and defaults in many sectors and industries, including, but not limited to, municipalities, retail, oil and gas, hotels and casinos, restaurants, telecommunications/media, real estate/construction, airlines and transportation, and leisure and recreation.
•A sudden and significant reduction in the values of the equity, fixed-income and commodity markets, and the significant increase in the volatility of those markets.
•A decrease in the rates and yields on U.S. Treasury and other securities, which may lead to decreased net interest income.
•Heightened cybersecurity, information security, and operational risks as a result of work-from-home arrangements.
We are prioritizing the safety of our customers, communities, and employees, by, among other things, limiting branch activity to a specified number of individuals at any given time, encouraging the use of drive-through services or in-office appointments, and transitioning many of our employees to working remotely. If these measures are not effective in serving our customers or affect the productivity of our employees, they may lead to significant disruptions in our business operations.
Many of our counterparties and third-party service providers have also been, and may further be, affected by “stay-at-home” orders, market volatility, and other factors that increase their risk of business disruption or that may otherwise affect their ability to perform under the terms of any agreements with us or to provide essential services.
We have offered, and may offer in the future, special financial assistance to support customers who are experiencing financial hardships related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including waivers of certain withdrawal fees from CDs, savings and money market accounts, loan payment deferrals and extensions, credit card payment extensions, temporary consumer mortgage payment forbearance and payment deferrals, suspension of new automobile and other vehicle repossessions, and suspension of new residential property foreclosures on consumer real estate loans. If such measures are not effective in mitigating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on borrowers, we may experience higher rates of default and increased credit losses in future periods.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Certain segments and industries where we have elevated credit exposure, including, but not limited to, municipalities, retail, oil and gas, hotels and casinos, restaurants, telecommunications/media, commercial and other real estate/construction/development, airlines and transportation, and leisure and recreation, have experienced significant operational challenges and financial stress as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. These challenges have been particularly pronounced for many small businesses, which make up a significant portion of our customer base. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may also hinder our customers' ability to pay their loans on a timely basis or may decrease the value of collateral, which would likely cause increases in our credit losses.

ITEM 1B. | UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS |
Net interest income is the largest component of our revenue and is significantly affected by market rates of interest. The significant reductions to the federal funds rate have led to a decrease in the rates and yields on U.S. Treasury securities, in some rare cases declining below zero. If interest rates are reduced further in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect that our net interest income will decline, perhaps significantly. The overall effect of lower interest rates on the economic environment cannot be predicted with certainty and will depend on future actions the Federal Reserve may take to increase or reduce the targeted federal funds rate in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic conditions.
Governmental authorities have taken unprecedented measures to provide economic assistance to individual households and businesses, stabilize the markets, and support economic growth. The success of these measures is unknown, and they may not be sufficient to fully mitigate the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, some measures, such as a suspension of mortgage and other loan payments and foreclosures, may have a negative impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We also face an increased risk of litigation and governmental and regulatory scrutiny because of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on market and economic conditions and actions governmental authorities take in response to those conditions.
The length of the pandemic and the efficacy of the extraordinary measures being put in place to address it are unknown. Until the pandemic subsides, we expect reduced revenues and increased customer and client defaults. Even after the pandemic subsides, the U.S. economy may experience a recession, which may be prolonged and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our business, financial condition, or results of operations, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this report.

Efficiency Ratio – this and Adjusted Pre-provision Net Revenue — This schedule also includes “adjusted noninterest expense,” “taxable-equivalent net interest income,” “adjusted taxable-equivalent revenue,” “pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”),” and “adjusted PPNR.” The methodology of determining the efficiency ratio may differ among companies. Management makes adjustments to exclude certain items, as identified in the subsequent schedule, which it believes allows for more consistent comparability among periods. Management believes the efficiency ratio provides useful information regarding the cost of generating revenue. Adjusted noninterest expense provides a measure as to how well the Bank iswe are managing itsour expenses, and adjusted PPNR enables management and others to assess the Bank’sour ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle. Taxable-equivalent net interest income allows management to assess the comparability of revenue arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources.

Key Corporate Objectives
While we serve a variety of customers, we are particularly focused on serving small businesses, mid-sized commercial businesses, affluent customers, and its subsidiaries (collectively “Zions Bancorporation, N.A.,” “the Bank,” “we,” “our,” “us”) together comprise a $69 billionproviding capital markets products to our commercial bank headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah.
At December 31, 2018, the Bank had bankingcustomers. The subsequent graphic illustrates our key corporate objectives. We conduct our operations through 433 branchesseven separately managed affiliates, each with its own local branding and management team. We continue to invest in eleven western states, with strong market share in many ofrelevant capabilities to maintain a competitive advantage.

•Operational Excellence — we continue to support ongoing improvements in how we safely and middle-marketsecurely deliver value to our customers, as measured by the Greenwich Associates annual survey. Since the inception of the awardsboth internal and external.
•Data and Analytics — we continue to invest in 2009, only five other U.S. banks have consistently received as many Greenwich Excellence Awards as Zions Bancorporation, N.A.advanced enterprise data and analytics to support local execution.
The Bank consistently wins awards for the best bank within its geography. Examples include the best bank awards given by local newspapers, business journals, or similar publications in Nevada, Arizona, and California: Orange County (five consecutive years) and San Diego County (eight consecutive years).
The Bank’s objectives include:
| |
◦ | Continuing revenue growth (net interest income plus noninterest income) in excess of noninterest expense—so-called positive operating leverage—which should result in annual PPNR growth in the high-single digit rate and further improvement to the efficiency ratio; |
| |
◦ | Improving profitability ratios. Improved operating efficiency coupled with low credit costs as experienced in 2018 should lead to improved profitability ratios, such as the returns on assets and equity. |
| |
◦ | Maintaining or increasing capital distributions due to stronger earnings and a lower risk profile than seen in prior years. |
The long-term strategy of the Bank to achieve these objectives includes the following:
| |
◦ | Continuing to execute on our community bank business model by doing business on a “local” basis, with significant local decision making for customer-facing elements of our business including product offerings, marketing, and pricing. We believe our scale gives us superior access to capital markets, more robust treasury management, and other product capabilities than smaller community banks. We also believe that our model provides a meaningful competitive advantage and an opportunity for growth over larger national banks whose loan and deposit products are often homogeneous. We are actively engaged in community events and charitable efforts designed to give back to the people within our communities. In 2018, we believe this local, customized approach led to a strong showing with commercial customers as reflected in the Greenwich Awards referenced earlier, as well as a loan growth rate of 4% for the year; |
| |
◦ | Maintaining a strong approach to risk management, having meaningfully improved our operational, credit, and financial risk management in the past several years; |
| |
◦ | Continuing to invest in a diverse team of knowledgeable and experienced bankers, known for their integrity. We are committed to building our employees’ capabilities, so they can become trusted partners of our customers and leaders in their communities; and |
| |
◦ | Continuing to invest in technology. Looking forward for the next several years, we believe that digital delivery of products, including mobile banking, online banking and having a core processing system that is robust and prevents outages, is critical to remaining competitive. We have rolled out a wide range of improvements and additions to our customer interfaces including a redesigned website, mobile applications, and an upgraded treasury internet banking platform for our commercial customers. |
During the past several years we have taken significant actions to improve the Bank’s risk profile, which include:
| |
◦ | The reduction of an above-average concentration in CRE loans. CRE loans as a percentage of total loans has declined from 35% at December 31, 2007 to 24% at December 31, 2018; |
| |
◦ | Numerous changes made to the credit administration organization and processes to facilitate improved data collection on loans and monitoring of potential default and loss risk; |
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
| |
◦ | The significant increase of liquidity and flexibility to reposition the securities portfolio with the purchase of moderate duration securities with limited duration extension risk; i.e., management has generally purchased securities that within the context of a rising interest rate environment would not experience interest rate related losses; |
| |
◦ | The addition of five members to the Board of Directors during the past five years that have strong financial and risk management experience; |
| |
◦ | The replacement and upgrade of management information and accounting systems to allow for a more complete view of the Bank’s risks and opportunities; and |
| |
◦ | The ongoing evaluation and classification of all known risks into approximately sixty unique risk categories, which are regularly monitored and reported in a process that flows from line-level employees through executive management to the Board of Directors; |
We have also taken significant actions to improve the Bank’s efficiency during the past several years, which include the streamlining or elimination of redundant or inefficient processes, and the reduction of unnecessary complexity in product types. We intend to continue improving our efficiency by creating value through the adoption of common practices, automation, and simplification of our front, middle and back-office processes.
We believe we have achieved even greater operating efficiencies than currently reflected in our financial statements, since our profitability has improved while at the same time investing a substantial amount to upgrade and replace core systems and applications. We announced in 2013 that we had started a project to replace our core loan and deposit banking systems (“Core Transformation Project”). We successfully implemented the first phase of the TCS BαNCS® core servicing system in mid-2017, replacing our consumer lending system. The second phase of the Core Transformation Project, which replaces the Bank’s primary commercial lending systems, was deployed in the February of 2019 and we are in the process of finalizing the full implementation. The replacement of the deposit system is expected to be the third phase of the Core Transformation Project, and is still in the preliminary stages of development. As of December 31, 2018, the Bank had $196 million of capitalized expenses associated with the Core Transformation Project. BαNCS® is a real time, parameter-driven servicing system that will provide long-term benefits to the Bank by improving accessibility and functionality, allowing our bankers to better serve customers.
As part of our ongoing simplification and efficiency efforts, on September 30, 2018, the Bank completed the merger of Zions Bancorporation, its former bank holding company, with, and into, the Bank formerly known as ZB, N.A., in order to further reduce organizational complexity. The restructuring eliminated the bank holding company structure and associated regulatory framework, and resulted in ZB, N.A. being renamed Zions Bancorporation, National Association and becoming the top-level entity within our corporate structure. The merger eliminates duplicative regulatory efforts, leaving the OCC as the Bank’s primary regulator. As a result of the merger and the Financial Stability Oversight Council’s action on September 12, 2018, the Bank is no longer considered a systemically important financial institution under the Dodd-Frank Act. See “Capital Management” on page 69 for more information regarding the merger. In December 2015, the Bank consolidated its various banking charters into a single charter.
In May 2018, the Crapo Bill was signed into law, reducing regulatory requirements for many banking institutions and exempting the Bank from the capital planning actions as required by the Dodd-Frank Act.
With the improvement in profitability and our risk profile, the Bank’s capital stress test results have markedly improved during the past few years, and as such, we have increased the return on- and of-capital to shareholders, including increasing the common dividend from $0.16 per share in 2014 to $1.04 per share in 2018. Additionally, we repurchased $670 million of common stock during 2018, which is 7% of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2017. We believe we are carrying excess capital, informed primarily by our stress test results, and have indicated that we intend to reduce our capital ratios to levels more consistent with our significantly reduced risk profile. The magnitude, timing and form of capital return will be determined by the Board.

Executive SummaryCOVID-19 Pandemic: The Backdrop for Our 2020 Financial Performance
The Bank reported net earnings applicable to common shareholdersyear 2020 presented a great number of challenges, and the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in hardships for 2018many. Key examples of $850 million or $4.08 per diluted common share compared with $550 million or $2.60 per diluted common share for 2017. Although a reduction in the statutory tax rate contributed significantlyour response to the improved earnings, adjusted PPNR increased by $141 million, or 14%, to $1.1 billion. The increase in adjusted PPNR was primarilychallenging environment are set forth below.
•Although the resultsharp reduction of increased interest income due to loan growth and continued expense control. Additionally, net income was positively impacted by improving credit quality, as discussed in more detail below. The Bank’s efficiency ratio improved to 59.6% in 2018 from 62.3% in 2017. We expect to achieve a high single-digit rate of growth in PPNR during the next several years without assuming the benefit of further benchmark interest rate increases and continue to strive for improvements to our efficiency ratio going forward.
The Bank’s net interest margin (“NIM”) expanded 16 basis points (“bps”) for the full year of 2018 versus 2017, which was largely attributable to the favorable effects of higher interest rates on our moderately “asset sensitive” balance sheet – where asset yields repriced faster and/or to a greater degree than liabilities (see Schedule 6).
Asset quality improved considerably in 2018, reflecting strong improvements in the oil and gas-related portfolio and generally stable to moderate improvements in other loan portfolios. Relative to 2017, total criticized, classified, and nonaccrual loans declined by 37%, 38%, and 39%, respectively. Net loan recoveries, expressed as a percentage of average loans held for investment, improved to net recoveries of 0.04% in 2018 from net charge-offs of 0.17% in 2017, largely the result of loan recoveries in the oil and gas portfolio.
Specifically for 2018 relative to 2017, the improved financial performance reflects:
Moderate net interest income growth resulting from loan growth and a generally stable securities portfolio, combined with the benefit of risingshorter-term benchmark interest rates to nearly zero and a significant flattening of the interest rate curve resulted in a reduction of revenue, the fiscal stimulus provided by the CARES Act and specifically the PPP, allowed us to provide relief to more than 47,000 customers — 14,700 customers of which were new to us — by facilitating a lending lifeline to these businesses. These new customers helped increase the total number of our business customers by nearly 8% in 2020.
•We ranked as the ninth largest originator of PPP loans by dollar volume of all the participating financial institutions, as disclosed by the SBA. Our market share of this program was approximately 3.5 times our overall national deposit market share, as measured by deposits. We attribute this success to two key factors:
◦We leveraged our relationship-based, high-touch approach to banking. During the development and roll-out of the PPP loans, many of our employees worked long hours to call on a balance sheet that consists of assets that generally reprice fastercustomers, and to a greater degree thanensure their questions were answered and that the liabilities.process was as efficient as possible.
Modest adjusted noninterest income growth due to continued focus on this source◦We rapidly deployed technology solutions that expedited the flow of revenue; we experienced notable successes such as generating strong growth in trust and wealth management income, increasing loan syndication arrangement fees, and arranging interest rate hedges for our loan customers.
A slight increase in noninterest expense while we remain focused on expense controls and continue to invest in technology and simplification initiatives. We delivered on our commitment to limit adjusted noninterest expense growth in 2018 to increase only slightly relative to our 2017 results. Adjusted noninterest expense increased $31 million in 2018, or 2%, to $1.7 billion in 2018.
A decline in the provision for credit losses from $17 million in 2017, to $(40) million in 2018 as the credit quality of loans improved.
Net earnings applicable to common shareholders increased by 55% over the prior year, and earnings per diluted share increased by 57%, a slightly stronger rate of growth than net earningsapplications. This was made possible due to the repurchasestreamlining and advancements we have made in technology in recent years.
•We originated $3.5 billion of 12.9 million shares of Bank common stock during 2018.residential mortgages in 2020, enabling many consumers to lower their monthly payments. This record origination volume was made possible in part by our investments in residential mortgage banking technology and operations over the past several years.
Areas Experiencing Challenges in 2018
Although loan growth was generally consistent with the targeted levels we had established for 2018, we experienced increased competition during the year. Some of this competition came from non-bank financial institutions such as debt funds, debt capital markets, and covenant-light structures. Additionally, some larger customers elected•We were able to refinance loans through the issuance of debt in the capital markets – an option that is not readily available to mostquickly transition more than 70% of our customers.employees to a work-from-home environment to help reduce the spread of the COVID-19 virus, and to keep our employees and communities safe.

| | | | | | |
| The decline in net earnings applicable to common shareholders in 2020 from 2019 was primarily due to a higher provision for credit losses. | | Although earnings for 2020 decreased 35% when compared with 2019, diluted EPS declined by 27%, due to our repurchasing 1.7 million shares, and the expiration of 29.2 million out-of-the-money warrants during 2020. Average diluted shares from the warrants were 1.6 million, 9.9 million, and 12.0 million shares in 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. | | The decline in adjusted PPNR was primarily the result of lower benchmark interest rates and their downward pressure on our net interest income and margin, and lower fees, due to fee waivers and reduced business activity. All of this was attributable to the effects of the pandemic. We successfully offset a portion of the revenue decline with income from PPP loans and lower adjusted noninterest expense. | | Our efficiency ratio for 2020 was affected by the $30 million charitable contribution. Excluding this contribution, our efficiency ratio for 2020 would have been 58.3%. |
The financial performance of 2020 relative to 2019 reflects:

•A deterioration of asset quality and a significant increase in the allowance for 2019credit losses. The allowance for credit losses increased $309 million from January 1, 2020, which resulted in an increase in the provision for credit losses of $375 million from the prior year.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities and is more than three-quartersapproximately 79% of our net revenue. Net interest income is derived from both the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and their respective yields and rates.

Net interest income improved by $165 million during 2018 compared with 2017 to $2.2 billion, an increase of 8%. For 2018,and taxable-equivalent net interest income waswere both $2.2 billion during 2020, a decrease of $0.1 billion, or 4%, compared with $2.3 billion compared with $2.1 billion and $1.9 billion, in 2017 and 2016, respectively.during 2019. The tax rate used for calculating all taxable-equivalent adjustments was 21% for 20182020 and 35% for all prior periods.2019. Yields on loans and securities decreased by 88 bps and 36 bps, respectively, while yields on deposits and borrowed funds decreased by 50 bps and 125 bps, respectively. The increase over 2017, and the previous increase over 2016, were drivenimpact of lower interest rates was partially offset by several factors, including average loan growth noninterest-bearing deposit stability, disciplined deposit pricingfrom PPP activity, and increasesa shift in benchmark interest rates. The increaseliability balances from 2016 to 2017 was further impacted by a larger average securities portfolio balance. We are not assuming any further increases in benchmark rates in our forecasts. However, because of loan growth and the benefit of our noninterest-bearing deposits, we expect net interest income to increase at a moderate pace in 2019 when compared with 2018.
Net Interest Margin and Interest Rate Spreads in 2018 vs. 2017
The NIM was 3.61% and 3.45% for 2018 and 2017, respectively. When comparing 2018 with 2017, changes in asset mix resulted in higher average loans, lower average securities and money market investments, and higher average interest-bearing deposits and wholesale borrowings balances to fund overall balance sheet growth. A significant source of NIM expansion is the increasing value of noninterest-bearing demand deposit accounts in the rising interest rate environment. Expansion of NIM reflects a higher loan yield with only a moderate increase in funding costs. Funding balance sheet growth with wholesale borrowings reduced spreads and negatively impacted NIM, although it was accretive to net interest income. The NIM was also positively impacted by increases in the federal funds target rate during 2018. Average interest-earning assets increased $1.6 billion from 2017, with average rates improving 35 bps. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $1.5 billionpurchased and average rates also increased 35 bps over the same period.
The average balance of our investment securities portfolio decreased $0.1 billion, while year-end balances decreased $0.5 billion. Our average lending portfolio increased $1.9 billionother short-term borrowings to $45.4 billion, an increase of 4%. The net earning asset growth was funded through a mix of deposits and wholesale borrowings.
Interest expense increased $124 million compared to 2017 results, attributable to both an increase in the cost and quantity of deposits and wholesale funding. Interest expense on deposits increased $76 million on $29.4 billion of average interest-bearinglower-cost deposits.
The increase in the average loan portfolio was due to growth in 1-4 family residential, commercial and industrial, and municipal lending. Yields on average balances increased by 43 bps, 45 bps, and 20 bps in the commercial, CRE and consumer portfolios, respectively. Much of the consumer growth was in consumer 1-4 family residential, where our yields are generally lower than on commercial loans. The federal funds target rate increased nine times beginning in the fourth quarter of 2015, which has had a positive impact on NIM and spreads, as our earning assets generally reprice more quickly than our funding sources. A portion of our variable-rate loans were not affected by these changes primarily due to longer reset frequency, or because a substantial portion of our earning assets are tied to longer-term rates indices, which rates were impacted by a relatively flat yield curve for much of 2018. Additionally, NIM benefited from FDIC-supported loans by 1 and 3 bps in 2018 and 2017, respectively. We expect moderate to strong growth in 1-4 family, municipal, commercial and industrial, and owner-occupied loans and stable-to-moderate growth in CRE and oil and gas-related loans.
Average noninterest-bearing demand deposits provided us with low-cost funding and comprised 45% of average total deposits, which totaled $53.2 billion in 2018, compared with 46% of average total deposits, which totaled $52.2 billion, for 2017. Average interest-bearing deposits increased 3% in 2018, compared with 2017. Over the past 12 months the Federal Reserve has increased the overnight benchmark federal funds rate by 100 bps, while the rate

The NIM compressed to 3.15% in 2020, compared with 3.54% in 2019. Due to the lower interest rate environment, the net impact of noninterest-bearing sources of funds on the NIM decreased to 0.18% in 2020, compared with 0.46% in 2019.
Average interest-earning assets increased $6.2 billion, or 10%, in 2020, from 2019, with the average yield decreasing 80 bps. The yield on average interest-earning assets includes the dilutive effect of $4.5 billion (6% of earning assets) of PPP loans with a yield of 3.22%, as compared with a yield on the non-PPP loan portfolio of 3.96%.
Average loans increased in 2020, primarily due to PPP loan originations, which were funded mainly through deposit growth. The average loan yield decreased 88 bps over the same prior year period, with decreases of 75 bps, 124 bps, and 51 bps in non-PPP commercial loans, CRE, and consumer loans, respectively. Recently, as benchmark interest rates have settled at a lower level, yields on new loans have been only modestly lower than yields on maturing loans.During 2020, we provided assistance to many small businesses through the PPP. Loan processing fees paid to us by the SBA are accounted for as loan origination fees, which are deferred with the loan origination costs, and are recognized over the life of the loan as a yield adjustment. Toward the end of the third quarter of 2020, we extended the maturity dates of PPP loans with an initial two-year maturity to five years, which lengthened the period of time the remaining unamortized net deferred fees are recognized into interest income as a yield adjustment. When a PPP loan is paid off or forgiven by the SBA prior to its maturity date, the remaining unamortized net deferred fees are immediately recognized into interest income at that time, and impact the PPP loan portfolio yield in that period. As of December 31, 2020, there were approximately $102 million of unamortized net origination fees related to the PPP loans.
The PPP loan yield in 2020 was 3.22%. Beginning in October 2020, the SBA initiated forgiveness of the PPP loans. During 2020, about 9,900 PPP loans, totaling $1.3 billion, received forgiveness by the SBA and contributed $26 million of interest income through accelerated recognition of net unamortized deferred fees on these loans. Additionally, on December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act was signed into law, which extended the PPP and provided government funding for additional forgivable PPP loans. These developments, and other potential future program changes, will affect PPP interest income and the effective yield of the PPP loans in future periods.

Benchmark interest rates decreased in 2020 and 2019, resulting in the previously described negative effect on
yields. A portion of our variable-rate loans, such as those with longer initial fixed-rate periods or longer reset frequencies (e.g., five- and seven-year fixed-rate adjustable mortgages), have not yet been affected by declines in benchmark interest rates. Generally, a larger portion of our interest-earning assets reprice when compared with our funding sources, partly because nearly half of our deposits are noninterest-bearing.
Average available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities balances decreased by $181 million in 2020. Yields on average AFS securities decreased by 36 bps over the same time period. The duration of the AFS securities portfolio is 3.1%. Principal repayment volume on AFS securities during 2020 was $4.4 billion, or 32% of the December 31, 2019 balance. We purchased $6.2 billion of AFS securities during 2020.
Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $563 million in 2020, from 2019, and the average rate paid on the Bank’sinterest-bearing liabilities decreased 69 bps to 40 bps. Average total deposits were $63.7 billion at an average cost of 17 bps during 2020, compared with $55.1 billion at an average cost of 46 bps during 2019. Various government stimulus programs have provided additional liquidity to individuals and small businesses, which has indirectly contributed to deposit growth. Average interest-bearing deposits increased 25grew 10%, and were $34.8 billion at an average cost of 30 bps implying aduring 2020, compared with $31.7 billion at an average cost of 80 bps during 2019.
Average borrowed funds decreased $2.5 billion during 2020, from 2019, with average short-term borrowings decreasing $2.8 billion, and average long-term borrowings increasing $308 million during the same period. Strong deposit betagrowth allowed us to reduce short-term borrowings and to repurchase $429 million of 25%. We have been selectively increasing depositour outstanding long-term debt maturing in 2021 and 2022. During 2020, the average interest rate paid on short-term borrowings and the rate paid on long-term debt decreased by 184 bps and 124 bps, respectively, due to lower short-term rates and interest rate hedges on our long-term fixed-rate debt.
The 29 bps decline in the cost of total deposits and the 50 bps decline in the cost of interest-bearing deposits can be largely attributed to the previously mentioned decline in benchmark market rates which reduced competitive pricing in certain markets and with certain clients, but we have not generally experienced significant pressure to broadly increase deposit rates. for deposits.
Although we considerutilize a wide variety of sources when determiningfor our funding needs, we benefit from access to deposits from a significant number of smallsmall- to mid-sized business customers, which provideprovides us with a low cost of funds and havethat has a positive impact on our NIM. Including wholesale borrowings,Because many of our deposit accounts are of an operating nature for businesses and households, we expect our noninterest-bearing deposits to remain a competitive advantage. Average noninterest-

bearing demand deposits increased by $5.5 billion, or 24%, in 2020, from 2019. Average noninterest-bearing deposits comprised 45% and 42% of average total deposits for 2020 and 2019, respectively. The net positive impact of noninterest-bearing sources of funds on the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased 35 bps.
The average balance of long-term debt increased $118 millionNIM was 0.18% during 2020, compared with 2017, while0.46% during 2019, reflecting the average ratedecline in benchmark interest rates.
Interest expense decreased 58 bps. During$259 million in 2020, compared with 2019, primarily due to both a decrease in the third quarter 2018, the Bank issued a $500 million senior note with an interest ratecost of 3.5%. Overall interest expense on long-term debt increased $4 million. The Bank has used short-term Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings to fund some of its balance sheet growth during the past couple of years. Average short-term debt grew $0.5 billion and the rate paid increased 88 bps. Further changes in short-term borrowings will be driven by balancing changes in deposits and loanswholesale funds, as we do not foresee significant increaseswell as a shift in investment security balances.balances from higher-to-lower cost funding sources which included a decrease in the quantity of borrowed funds and brokered deposits, and an increase in the quantity of both noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing deposits.
The spread on average interest-bearing funds was 3.28% in 2018 was 2.97% and 3.27% in 2017, respectively. The spread on average interest-bearing funds for these periods3.08% during 2020 and 2019, respectively, and was affected by the same factors that had an impact onimpacted the NIM.
Interest rate spreads and marginmargins are impacted by the mix of assets we hold, the composition of our loan and securities portfolios, and the type of funding used. We expect the yield of the loan portfolio to increase somewhat due to the effects of rising interest rates in 2018, partially offset by a continued modest change in the mix of the portfolio (increasing concentration in lower-yielding residential mortgages), as well as reduced income from higher-yielding loans purchased from the FDIC in 2009.
Our estimates of the Bank’s interest rate risk position estimates are highly dependent upon a number of assumptions regarding the repricing behavior of various deposit and loan types in response to changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates, balance sheet composition, and other modeling assumptions, as well as the actions of competitors and customers in response to those changes. Although the federal funds target rate has increased 225 bps since the fourth quarter of 2015, we have not experienced significant migration of our noninterest-bearing deposits which we attribute to the operating nature of many of our deposit accounts.

Schedule 69 analyzes the year-to-year changes in net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis for the years indicated. For purposes of calculating the yields in these schedules, the average loan balances also include the principal amounts of nonaccrual and restructured loans. However, interest received on nonaccrual loans is included in income only to the extent that cash payments have been received and not applied to principal reductions. In addition, interest on restructured loans is generally accrued at reduced rates.

In the analysis of interest changes due to volume and rate, changes due to the volume/rate variance are allocated to volume with the following exceptions: when volume and rate both increase, the variance is allocated proportionately to both volume and rate; when the rate increases and volume decreases, the variance is allocated to rate.
Provision for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) is the combination of both the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments (“RULC”). The ALLL represents the estimated current expected credit losses over the contractual term of the loan and lease portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The RULC represents the estimated reserve for current expected credit losses associated with off-balance sheet commitments. Changes in the ALLL and RULC, including changes in net charge-offs, are recorded in the provision for loan and lease losses and the provision for unfunded lending commitments in the income statement, respectively. The ACL for debt securities is estimated separately from loans.

On January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and its subsequent updates, often referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model. Upon adoption of this ASU, we recorded the full amount of the ACL for loans and leases of $526 million, compared with $554 million at December 31, 2019, resulting in an after-tax increase to retained earnings of $20 million. The impact of the adoption of CECL for our securities portfolio was less than $1 million. As a result of the CECL accounting standard, the ACL is subject to economic forecasts that may change materially from period to period.
The provision for credit losses, which is the combination of both the provision for loan losses and the provision for unfunded lending commitments.commitments, was $414 million in 2020, compared with $39 million in 2019. The ACL increased $309 million to $835 million at December 31, 2020, compared with $526 million at January 1, 2020. The increase in the ACL is almost entirely due to economic stress caused by the COVID-19 pandemic coupled with the effect of low oil and gas prices. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans during 2020 was 0.20%, compared with 0.08% during 2019. The provision for loancredit losses is the amount of expense that, in our judgment, is required to maintain the ALLL at an adequate level based on the inherent risks in the loan portfolio. The provision for unfunded lending commitments is used to maintain the reserve for unfunded lending commitments (“RULC”) at an adequate level based on the inherent risks associated with such commitments. In determining adequate levels of the ALLL and RULC, we perform periodic evaluations of our various loan portfolios, the levels of actual charge-offs, credit quality trends, and external factors. See Note 6of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements anddebt securities was less than $1 million during 2020.

“* January 1, 2020 amount is used instead of December 31, 2019, for comparative purposes because this is the date the CECL accounting standard became effective.
The total ACL was $835 million at December 31, 2020, compared with $526 million at January 1, 2020. The bar chart above shows the broad categories of change in the ACL. The second bar represents the change in ACL due to changes in economic forecasts. The $373 million increase from January 1, 2020 is our estimate of the change in credit losses due to the change in economic forecasts brought on by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic downturn, including the impact of low oil and gas prices. As of December 31, 2020, our base forecast shows economic improvement continuing throughout 2021, gradually stabilizing by 2022. Credit Risk Management” on page 52quality factors represented by the third bar include risk-grade migration and specific reserves against loans, which, when combined, add $104 million to the ACL when compared with 2019, showing credit quality deterioration during the year. Lastly, portfolio changes, driven by non-PPP loan balances declining, the aging of the portfolio, decreased utilization, and other similar factors, generated a $168 million reduction in the ACL.
See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on how we determine the appropriate level for the ALLL and the RULC.
The provision for loan losses was $(39) million in 2018, compared with $24 million in 2017. Credit quality was strong throughout 2018, with continued significant improvement in the oil and gas-related portfolio. Classified and nonaccrual loans in the total portfolio declined by $435 million and $162 million, respectively. Net recoveries totaled $16 million in 2018, compared with $73 million in net charge-offs in 2017. These improvements in both credit quality and net charge-offs resulted in the lower provision.
The provision for unfunded lending commitments was $(1) million in 2018, compared with $(7) million in 2017. The change in the provision in 2018 from 2017 was primarily due to increased unfunded lending commitments, partially offset by credit quality improvements in the oil and gas-related portfolio. The negative provision in 2017 was primarily due to improved credit quality assessments related to obligations for credits outside the oil and gas-related portfolio, along with declining oil and gas-related exposure. From quarter to quarter, the provision for unfunded lending commitments may be subject to sizable fluctuations due to changes in the timing and volume of loan commitments, originations, fundings, and changes in credit quality.
The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”), which is the combination of both the ALLL and the RULC, decreased by $24 million during 2018. Strong credit quality in 2018, highlighted by improvement in the oil and gas-related portfolio, was responsible for much of this reduction. Further, increasing non-oil and gas-related commercial and industrial and 1-4 family residential mortgage exposure, also improved the risk profile of the total portfolio.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income represents revenues we earn for products and services that have no associated interest rate or yield. Noninterest income accounted for 18%yield and 20% of total revenue during 2018 and 2017, respectively. For 2018, noninterest income was $552 million compared with $544 million in 2017 and $516 million in 2016.
During 2018, we experienced strength in corporate investment services and wealth management income, loan syndication fees, bankcard fees and merchant account fees while experiencing declines in deposit-related service charges and mortgage-related fees. The improvement in corporate investment services income was primarily due to increases in the revenue share received from the higher balances in money market mutual funds. Rising interest rates resulted in improved returns for money market mutual funds, thus driving the increase in balances. Deposit service charge income experienced slight resistance due, in part, to rising interest ratesis classified as discussed below. Rising interest rates also adversely impacted mortgage banking activity.

Service charges and fees on deposit accounts decreased by $5 million, or 3%, during 2018 and has been static or slightly decreasing for the last several years. A primary driver of the decline in service charges and fees was softening of high transaction volume customers. A secondary driver of this decline could be attributed to rising interest rates, which may influence increases in the earning credit rate due to customer expectations. The earnings credit rate (ECR) is a daily calculation of soft dollar credit that a bank pays on customer’s noninterest-bearing deposits on Account Analysis. This credit can be used to offset service charges on a customer’s analyzed account. As the ECR increases, customers offset more of their deposit service charges, thus the potential softening in noninterest income.
Other service charges, commissions and fees, which are comprised of automated teller machine (“ATM”) fees, insurance commissions, bankcard merchant fees, debit and credit card interchange fees, cash management fees, and other miscellaneous fees, increased by $11 million, or 5%, compared with 2017. The increase relates mainly to higher credit card interchange fees and exchange and other fees. In 2017 other service charges, commissions and fees increased by $9 million compared with 2016. The increase was primarily a result of the same items mentioned previously.
Wealth management and trust income increased by $9 million, or 21%. The change was due to trust income, with improvement in both corporate and personal trust revenue due to platform and product simplifications. Wealth management and trust income increased $5 million between 2017 and 2016 for the same reasons.
Securities gains, net, decreased $13 million during 2018 as a result of $13 million of increases in the market value of the Bank’s Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) investments in 2017 that did not reoccur to the same magnitude in 2018. Securities gains, net in 2017 increased from 2016 as a result of higher increases in the market values of the Bank’s SBIC investments.
Dividends and other investment income increased $16 million between 2017 and 2016, primarily due to $14 million of gains across many of our cost and equity method investments.
Loan sales and servicing income decreased $10 million between 2017 and 2016. During 2017, we ceased selling servicing-released mortgage loans to Freddie Mac, and therefore no longer received the associated servicing premiums for doing so, which decreased income by $11 million. In general, servicing income increased slightly in 2017. We also had particularly large valuation gains during 2016 on agricultural loan servicing assets accounted for at fair value, which did not repeat to the same extent in 2017.

Customer-related fees
Growing customer-related fee income is a key strategic priority, and several strategic initiatives are underway to support this effort. We are working to leverage our relationship with commercial and small business customers to accelerate sales of capital markets products, treasury management products, and wealth advisory services.
Total customer-related fees increased to $549 million in 2020, compared with $525 million in 2019, and $508 million in 2018. Loan-related fees and income increased $34 million in 2020, due to residential mortgage loan originations and sales, which benefited from the reduction in benchmark interest rates and our enhanced customer-facing digital fulfillment process.Retail and business banking fees decreased $10 million in 2020, due to fee waivers as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.Card fees decreased $10 million in 2020, due to reduced economic activity and transaction volume.
Customer-related fees increased by $17 million, or 3%, during 2019. Capital markets and foreign exchange fees increased by $20 million as a result of an $11 million increase in income from arranging interest rate hedges for our loan customers, a $4 million increase in loan syndication arrangement fees, and a $3 million increase in foreign exchange fees. Wealth management and trust fees increased by $5 million, or 9%, as a result of increased corporate and personal trust revenue. Other customer-related fees decreased by $6 million, or 22%, primarily as a result of the sale of a minor business in 2019.
Noncustomer-related fees
Dividends and other income decreased by $19 million during 2020, primarily due to lower dividends received from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), reflecting less FHLB stock held by us.
When comparing 2019 with 2018, fair value and nonhedge derivative income decreased by $8 million due to valuation adjustments on client-related interest rate swaps during 2019. As a result of the decline in interest rates during 2019 and increased client activity during the year, these client-related interest rate swaps significantly increased in value, resulting in the Bank having a larger exposure to the clients and a $9 million negative valuation adjustment in 2019, compared with a negative valuation adjustment of $1 million in 2018.

Noninterest Expense
As mentioned previously, we delivered on our commitment to limit adjusted noninterest expense growth in 2018 to increase only slightly relative to our 2017 results. Both noninterest expense and adjusted noninterest expense were $1.7 billion in 2018 compared to $1.6 billion in both 2017 and 2016. Noninterest expense increased $29 million, or 2%, and adjusted noninterest expense increased $31 million, also 2%, in 2018. (see “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations” on page 27 for more information regarding the calculation of adjusted noninterest expense).
We have developed a culture that continually seeks to streamline and make more simple and efficient the processes required to operate. To this end, in 2018 we successfully completed the merger of the holding company with and into the bank subsidiary. The consolidation of our seven bank charters at the end of 2015 almost entirely eliminated the need for the holding company; the consolidation of the holding company into the bank reduced duplicative regulatory examinations and certain regulatory requirements. The Bank remains focused on expense control efforts, while continuing to invest in technology initiatives.

Salaries and employee benefits increasedNoninterest expense decreased by $64$38 million, or 6%2%, in 2018,2020, compared with 2017. Salaries and employee benefits increased primarily due to a $29 million increase in base salaries resulting from salary increases related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, merit increases and increased headcount, and a $19 million increase in incentive compensation, of which $7 million relates to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The remaining $16 million increase was primarily a result of an $8 million increase in the Bank’s medical plans and a $7 million increase in the Bank’s contribution to the employee 401(k) plan, as a result of improved financial performance, including the profit sharing contribution which increased to 2.5% of eligible compensation in 2018 from 1.75% in 2017. Our investment in major systems projects has led to headcount increases in more highly compensated roles.
Salaries and employee benefits increased2019. Adjusted noninterest expense decreased by $28$31 million, or 3%2%, over the same period, and includes a $30 million charitable contribution in 2017, compared with 2016. Base salaries were up in 2017, as employee salary expense rose roughly in line with inflation. Employee bonuses were up, partially due2020. See “GAAP to lower incentive compensationNon-GAAP Reconciliations” on page 28 for management in 2016 and larger commission expense in 2017. Benefits expense increased $11 million, or 8%, in 2017, primarily due to higher costs inmore information regarding the Bank’s medical plans and an increase in profit sharingcalculation of adjusted noninterest expense.

Occupancy expense was up $3Salaries and employee benefits decreased by $54 million, or 2%5%, in 20182020, compared with 2019, primarily due to an increase in capitalized salaries and employee benefits as a result of our technology initiatives and PPP loan originations, lower severance costs and base salaries related to the reduction in workforce, and a decrease in the profit sharing contribution to the employee 401(k) plan.

During 2020, we paid $21 million in PPP-related bonuses, of which approximately $16 million was capitalized and deferred.
Salaries and employee benefits increased property taxesby $71 million, or 7%, in 2019, compared with 2018, mainly due to a $33 million increase in base salaries resulting from salary merit increases, a $22 million increase in severance expenses primarily from the previously mentioned workforce reduction, a $6 million increase in employee medical costs, and depreciationa $4 million increase in retirement expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $7 million decrease in incentive compensation.

Other noninterest expense increased by $16 million to $241 million in 2020, compared with $225 million in 2019. This increase was primarily due to the previously mentioned $30 million charitable contribution and a $28 million pension plan termination-related expense, partially offset by increased rental income. Occupancyan $18 million decrease in travel and entertainment expense, was up $4a $13 million impairment charge in 2017 when compared to 2016. We placed a newly constructed office building into operation during the first quarter of 2017 and increased rental income from higher occupancies of leased space began in the latter-half of 2017 and 2018.
Furniture and equipment expense decreased $4 million, or 3%, in 2018 primarily from decreased maintenance expense, partially offset by increased amortization of capitalized software. Furniture and equipment expense increased $5 million in 2017 mainly due to increased amortization expense. During 2017, we successfully implemented the first phase of the TCS BαNCS® core servicing system. The second phase of the Core Transformation Project, which replaces the Bank’s primary commercial lending systems, was deployed in the February of 2019 and we are in the process of finalizing the full implementation.
The provision for unfunded lending commitments was $(1) million in 2018 compared to $(7) million in 2017 and $(10) million in 2016, and is discussed previously in the Provision for Credit Losses section.
Professional and legal services decreased $5 million from 2017 to $52 million in 2018. The decrease was primarily a result of lower consulting fees related to centralizing our simplificationoffice space and technology initiatives.the closure of certain branches, and $10 million of customer reimbursements in 2019 to remedy a self-identified operational issue. These same expenses that occurred in 2019 contributed to the same reasons for the $28 million increase in Other noninterest expense in 2019, compared with 2018.
When comparing 2019 with 2018, the other significant variance was a $25 million decrease in FDIC premiums, were $50 million, $53 million, and $40 million, in 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively. The decrease in 2018 iswhich was primarily due to the elimination of the FDIC surcharge for large banks because the required Deposit Insurance Fund reserve ratio hashad been met. The increase during 2017 when compared to 2016 was due to higher deposit basesmet and the FDIC’s increaseBank issuing unsecured debt which results in deposit insurance assessments that occurred in the third quarter of 2016. This increase during 2017 was somewhat offset by a reduction in the Bank’s overall rate resulting from the consolidation of the individual bank charters.lower FDIC premiums.
Other noninterest expense was $197 million in 2018, compared with $231 million in 2017. This decrease was primarily due to the one-time $12 million charitable contribution made at the end of 2017 and a decrease in employee and operational expenses resulting from the Bank’s simplification and efficiencies initiatives.
In October 2018, the Bank decided to terminate its pension plan subject to obtaining necessary regulatory approval. Completion of this termination is expected in early 2020. Plan participant benefits will not be disadvantaged because of this decision. At the time of final liquidation additional noninterest expense will be recognized for pension amounts remaining in other comprehensive income (“OCI”), as well as expense related to purchasing annuities for participants who elect that distribution method. As of December 31, 2018, the pension plan was overfunded by $19 million, compared with $14 million as of December 31, 2017. The qualified pension OCI balance at December 31, 2018 was a $27 million loss before adjusting for tax effects. The expense related to purchasing annuities is highly dependent on individual participant elections between lump-sum distribution options

and an annuity option, in addition to market competitiveness in the annuity bid process. The current estimate of this expense is $5 million to $15 million, and is subject to change depending upon the previously mentioned factors.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $133 million in 2020, $237 million in 2019, and $259 million in 2018, $344 million in 2017, and $236 million in 2016.2018. Our effective income tax rates were 19.8% in 2020, 22.5% in 2019, and 22.7% in 2018, 36.8% in 2017, and 33.5% in 2016.2018. The income tax rates for all tax years were reduced by nontaxable municipal interest income and nontaxable income from certain bank-owned life insurance. The income tax rate for 2018 was positively impactedinsurance (“BOLI”) and were increased by the decrease in the corporate federal income tax rate to 21% from 35% due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which was effective January 1, 2018. This rate benefit was partially reduced by the non-deductibilitynondeductibility of FDIC premiums, certain executive compensation, and other fringe benefits as enacted by the new tax law.

The tax rate for 20172020 was also impacted byreduced as a one-time $18 million benefitresult of the proportional increase in nontaxable items and tax credits relative to tax expense related to the reevaluation of state tax positions, an excess tax benefit of $9 million from the implementation of new accounting guidance related to share-based compensation,pretax book income, as compared with 2019 and an estimated net DTA write-off of $47 million through income tax expense associated with the decrease in the federal income tax rate from the passage of new legislation.2018.
The BankWe continued to invest in technology initiatives, low-income housing, and increased investment in municipal securities during 2018, 2017,2020, 2019, and 2016,2018, generating tax credits and nontaxable income that benefited the tax rate each year.
We had a net DTAdeferred tax liability (“DTL”) balance of $130$3 million at December 31, 2018,2020, compared with $93a net deferred tax asset (“DTA”) balance of $37 million at December 31, 2017.2019. The increase in thedecrease from a net DTA to a net DTL balance resulted primarily from thean increase in accrued compensation and unrealized lossesgains in OCI related to securities and the decrease in deferred tax liabilities related to the deferred gain on a prior period debt exchange. Net charge-offs exceeding the provision for loan losses, an increase in deferred loan fees and accelerated tax deductions on certain technology initiatives and depreciable property during 20182020. An increase in the provision for loan losses in excess of net charge-offs offset some of the overall increasedecrease in DTA.

Preferred Stock Dividends and Redemption
In 2018 preferredPreferred stock dividends have been consistent during the past three years and were $34 million a decrease of $6 million from $40 million in 2017. In 2017 preferred stock dividends decreased by $8 million from 2016. We completed tender offers of $144 million of Series F,2020, 2019, and $118 million of Series I, J, and G in the second quarters of 2017, and 2016, respectively. Preferred dividends are expected to be $34 million for 2019.2018. See further details in Note 1314 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Zions Bank
Zions Bank is headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, and is primarily responsible for conducting operations in Utah, Idaho, and Wyoming. If it were a separately chartered bank, it would be the second largest full-service commercial bank in Utah and the 4thfourth largest in Idaho, as measured by domestic deposits in these states.
Zions Bank’s income before income taxes increaseddecreased by $35$51 million, or 10%15%, during 2018.2020.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
Interest-EarningInterest-earning Assets
Interest-earning assets are those assets that have interest rates or yields associated with them. One of our goals is to maintain a high level of interest-earning assets relative to total assets while keeping nonearningnon-earning assets at a minimum. Interest-earning assets consist of money market investments, securities, loans, and leases.
Schedule 5,8,which we referenced in our discussion of net interest income, includes the average balances of our interest-earning assets, the amount of revenue generated by them, and their respective yields. Another goal is to maintain a higher-yielding mix of interest-earning assets, such as loans, relative to lower-yielding assets, while maintaining adequate levels of highly liquid assets. As a result of this goal we redeployed funds from lower-yielding money market investments, in addition to using wholesale borrowings, to purchase agency securities.
Average interest-earning assets were $62.4$71.2 billion in 20182020, compared with $60.9$64.9 billion in the previous year.2019. Average interest-earning assets as a percentage of total average assets were 94% and 93% in both 20182020 and 2017.2019, respectively.

Loans and leases, net of unearned income and fees, increased $4.8 billion, or 10%, to $53.5 billion at December 31, 2020, from $48.7 billion at December 31, 2019, primarily due to the origination of PPP loans across loan products and geographies with particular strengthour geographic footprint. Excluding PPP loans, commercial loans decreased by $488 million, as the stressed economic environment adversely impacted demand for these loans. Within commercial loans, a $1.3 billion decrease inconsumer 1-4 family residential, commercial and industrial, municipal, and commercial owner-occupied loans. The growth in the loan portfolio was primarily at CB&T and Zions Bank.
Of the significant increases within the portfolio, consumer 1-4 family residential loans increased $514 million, commercial and industrial loans increased $510 million, municipal loans increased $390 million, and commercial owner-occupied loans increased $373 million. The impact of these increases was partially offset by a decreaseincreases of $164$558 million in our CRE term portfolio.
We expect moderate totalmunicipal loans and $284 million in owner-occupied commercial loans. Term commercial real estate loans increased $415 million. Consumer loans decreased $866 million, which was spread across all consumer loan subcategories and lease growth during 2019, primarily in consumer 1-4 family residential, municipal, commercial and industrial, and commercial owner-occupied (non-NRE). We expect stable to moderate growth in oil and gas and CRE loans, partially offset by a moderate decline in the National Real Estate (“NRE”) loan portfolio.
Loans serviced for the benefit of others increased to $3.9 billion during 2018 from $3.7 billion in 2017.geographies.

RISK ELEMENTSMANAGEMENT
Since risk is inherent in substantially all of the Bank’sour operations, management of risk is an integral part of itsour operations and is also a key determinant of itsour overall performance. We utilize the three lines of defense approach to risk management with responsibilities for each line of defense defined in our Risk Management Framework. The first line of defense represents units and functions throughout the Bank engaged in activities related to revenue generation, expense reduction, operational support, and technology services. These units and functions are accountable for owning and managing the risks associated with these activities. The second line of defense represents functions responsible for independently assessing and overseeing risk management activities. The third line of defense is our internal audit function that provides independent assessment of the effectiveness of the first and second lines of defense.
The Board of Directors has appointedestablished an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Risk Oversight Committee (“ROC”) that consistsconsist of appointed Board members who oversee the Bank’sour risk management processes. The ROC meets on a regular basis to monitor and review Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) policies and activities. As required by its charter, the ROC performs oversight for various ERM activities and approves ERM policies and activities as detailed in the ROC charter.
Management applies various strategies to reduce the risks to which the Bank’sour operations are exposed, including credit risk, market and interest rate risk, liquidity risk, strategic and market, liquidity,business risk, operational risk, technology risk, cyber risk, capital/financial reporting risk, legal/compliance risk (including regulatory risk), reputational risk, and operational risks.other risk. These risks are overseen by the various management committees, of which theincluding an Enterprise Risk Management Committee, which is the focalcentral point for the monitoring, reviewing, and review ofmanaging enterprise risk.
Credit Risk Management
Credit risk is the possibility of loss from the failure of a borrower, guarantor, or another obligor to fully perform under the terms of a credit-related contract. Credit risk arises primarily from our lending activities, as well as from off-balance sheet credit instruments.
The Board of Directors, through the ROC, is responsible for approving the overall credit policies relating to the management of the credit risk of the Bank. In addition, therisk. The ROC also oversees and monitors adherence to key credit policies and the credit risk appetite as defined in the Risk AppetiteManagement Framework. Additionally, the Board has established the Credit Risk Committee, which is chaired by the Chief Credit Officer and consisting ofincludes members of management, and to which it has delegated the responsibility for managing credit risk for the Bank and approving changes to the Bank’s credit policies.
Centralized oversight of credit risk is provided through credit policies, credit risk management, and credit examination functions. Our credit policies place emphasis on strong underwriting standards and early detection of potential problem credits in order to develop and implement action plans on a timely basis to mitigate any potential losses. These formal credit policies and procedures provide the Bankus with a framework for consistent underwriting and a basis for sound credit decisions at the local banking affiliate level. Credit examinations related to the ACL are reported to both the Audit Committee and the ROC.
Our credit risk management function is separate from the lending function and strengthens control over, and the independent evaluation of, credit activities. In addition, we have a well-defined set of standards for evaluating our loan portfolio, and we utilize a comprehensive loan risk-grading system to determine the risk potential in the portfolio. Furthermore, the internal credit examination department, which is independent of the lending function, periodically conducts examinations of the Bank’sour lending departments and credit activities. These examinations are

designed to review credit quality, adequacy of documentation, appropriate loan risk-grading administration, and compliance with credit policies. New, expanded, or modified products and services, as well as new lines of business, are approved by the New Initiative ReviewChange, Initiatives, and Technology Committee.

Our credit risk management strategy includes diversification of our loan portfolio. Our business activity is primarily with customers located within the geographic footprint of our banking affiliates. We attempt to avoid the risk of an undue concentrationconcentrations of creditscredit in aany particular industry, collateral type, location, or with anany individual customer or counterparty. Generally, our loan portfolio is well diversified; however, dueDue to the nature of our geographicalgeographic footprint, there arewe have certain significant concentrations, primarily inincluding CRE and oil and gas-related lending. We have adopted and adhere to concentration limits on leveraged lending, municipal lending, oil and gas-related lending, and various types of CRE lending, particularly construction and land development lending. All of these limits are continually monitored and revised as necessary. The recent growth in construction and land development loan commitments is within the established concentration limits. Our business activity is primarily with customers located within the geographical footprint of our banking affiliates.
As we continuecontinued to monitor our concentration risk, the composition of our loan portfolio haschanged slightly changed.from the prior year. Total commercial loans were 57% and 52% of the total portfolio compared with 51% at December 31, 2017.2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively.

1 Because many borrowers operate in multiple businesses, judgment has been applied in characterizing a borrower as oil and
gas-related, including a particular segment of retail trade consistsoil and gas-related activity, e.g., upstream or midstream; typically, 50% of motor vehicle
revenues coming from the oil and parts dealers, gas stations, grocery stores, building material suppliers,sector is used as a guide.
2 Total oil and direct-to-consumer retailers,gas-related loan and lease balances at December 31, 2020 included approximately $171 million of PPP loans.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
At December 31, 2020, oil and gas-related loans represented approximately 4% of the total loan portfolio, compared with 5% at December 31, 2019. Upstream loans are made to reserve-based borrowers where approximately 81% of those loans are collateralized by the value of the borrower’s oil and gas reserves. The following schedule presents certain credit quality measures of our oil and gas-related loan portfolio.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
At December 31, 2020, our CRE construction and land development and term loan portfolios represented approximately 23% of the total loan portfolio. The majority of our CRE loans are secured by real estate, which is primarily located within our geographic footprint. Approximately 13%23% of the CRE loan portfolio matures in the next 12 months. Construction and land development loans generally mature in 18 to 36 months and contain full or partial recourse guarantee structures with one to five-year extension options or roll-to-perm options that often result in term debt. Term CRE loans generally mature within a three to seven-year period and consist of mini-perm loans as of December 31, 2018. For such loans, construction has been completedfull, partial, and the project has stabilized to a levelnonrecourse guarantee structures. Typical term CRE loan structures include annually-tested operating covenants that supports the granting of a mini-permrequire loan in accordance with our underwriting standards. Mini-perm loans generally have initial maturities of three to five years. The remaining 87% of CRE loans are term loans with initial maturities generally of 5 to 20 years. The stabilization criteria for a project to qualify for a term loan differ by product type and include criteria related to the cash flow generated by the project,rebalancing based on minimum debt service coverage, debt yield, or loan-to-value ratio, and occupancy rates.tests.
Approximately $134$156 million, or 9%7%, of the commercial construction and land development portfolio at December 31, 20182020 consists of acquisition and development loans. Most of these acquisition and development loans are secured by specific retail, apartment, office, or other projects.
Underwriting on commercial properties is primarily based on the economic viability of the project with heavy consideration given to the creditworthiness and experience of the sponsor. We generally require that the owner’s equity be injected prior to bank advances. RemarginingRe-margining requirements (required equity infusions upon a decline in value or cash flow of the collateral) are often included in the loan agreement along with guarantees of the sponsor. Recognizing that debt is paid via cash flow, the projected cash flows of the project are critical in the underwriting because these determine the ultimate value of the property and its ability to service debt. Therefore, in most projects (with the exception of multifamilymulti-family and hospitality construction projects), we require substantial pre-leasing/pre-leasing or leasing in our underwriting, and we generally require a minimum projected stabilized debt service coverage ratio of 1.20 or higher, depending on the project asset class.
Within the residential construction and development sector, many of the requirements previously mentioned, such as creditworthiness and experience of the developer, up-front injection of the developer’s equity, principal curtailment requirements, and the viability of the project are also important in underwriting a residential development loan. Significant consideration is given to the forecasted market acceptance of the product, location, strength of the developer, and the ability of the developer to stay within budget. Progress inspections by qualified independent inspectors are routinely performed before disbursements are made.
Real estate appraisals are ordered in accordance with regulatory guidelines and are validated independently of the loan officer and the borrower, generally by our internal appraisal review function, which is staffed by licensed appraisers. In some cases, reports from automated valuation services are used or internal evaluations are performed. A new appraisal or evaluation is required when a loan deteriorates to a certain level of credit weakness.
Advance rates (i.e., loan commitments) will vary based on the viability of the project and the creditworthiness of the sponsor, but our guidelines generally limit advances to 50% for raw land, 65% for land development, 65% for finished commercial lots, 75% for finished residential lots, 80% for pre-sold homes, 75% for models and homes not under contract, and 75% for commercial properties. Exceptions may be granted on a case-by-case basis.
Loan agreements require regular financial information on the project and the sponsor in addition to lease schedules, rent rolls and, on construction projects, independent progress inspection reports. The receipt of this financial information is monitored, and calculations are made to determine adherence to the covenants set forth in the loan agreement.
The existence of a guarantee that improves the likelihood of repayment is taken into consideration when analyzingevaluating CRE loans for impairment.expected losses. If the support of the guarantor is quantifiable and documented, it is included in the potential cash flows and liquidity available for debt repayment, and our impairmentexpected loss methodology takes this repayment source into consideration.
When we modify or extend a loan, we also give consideration to whether the borrower is in financial difficulty, and whether we have granted a concession. In determining if an interest rate concession has been granted, we consider whether the interest rate on the modified loan is equivalent to current market rates for new debt with similar risk characteristics. If the rate in the modification is less than current market rates, it may indicate that a concession was granted and impairment exists.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
granted. However, if additional collateral is obtained, or if a guarantor exists who has the
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
capacity and willingness to support the loan on an extended basis, we also consider the nature and amount of the additional collateral and guarantees in the ultimate determination of whether a concession has been granted.
In general, we obtain and consider updated financial information for the guarantor as part of our determination to extend a loan. The quality and frequency of financial reporting collected and analyzed varies depending on the contractual requirements for reporting, the size of the transaction, and the strength of the guarantor.
Complete underwriting of the guarantor includes, but is not limited to, an analysis of the guarantor’s current financial statements, leverage, liquidity, global cash flow, global debt service coverage, contingent liabilities, etc. The assessment also includes a qualitative analysis of the guarantor’s willingness to perform in the event of a problem and demonstrated history of performing in similar situations. Additional analysis may include personal financial statements, tax returns, liquidity (brokerage) confirmations, and other reports, as appropriate.
A qualitative assessment is performed on a case-by-case basis to evaluate the guarantor’s experience, performance track record, reputation, and willingness to work with us. We also utilize market information sources, rating, and scoring services in our assessment. This qualitative analysis coupled with a documented quantitative ability to support the loan may result in a higher-quality internal loan grade, which may reduce the level of allowance we estimate. Previous documentation of the guarantor’s financial ability to support the loan is discounted if there is any indication of a lack of willingness by the guarantor to support the loan.
In the event of default, we evaluate the pursuit of any and all appropriate potential sources of repayment, which may come from multiple sources, including the guarantee. A number of factors are considered when deciding whether or not to pursue a guarantor, including, but not limited to, the value and liquidity of other sources of repayment (collateral), the financial strength and liquidity of the guarantor, possible statutory limitations (e.g., single action rule on real estate) and the overall cost of pursuing a guarantee compared with the ultimate amount we may be able to recover. In other instances, the guarantor may voluntarily support a loan without any formal pursuit of remedies.
A decrease in oil and gas prices could potentially produce an adverse impact on our CRE loan portfolio within Texas. However, based upon generally strong equity and cash flow coverage levels, and sponsor support for the various properties, we do not expect a material amount of losses within this portfolio in 2019. Our largest CRE credit exposures in Texas are to the multi-family, office, and retail sectors. At December 31, 2018, the CRE loan portfolio mix in Texas was 71% commercial term, 17% commercial construction, 10% residential construction, and 2% land development.
Consumer Loans
We have mainlyprimarily been an originator of first and second mortgages, generally considered to be of prime quality. We generally hold variable-rate loans in our portfolio and sell “conforming” fixed-rate loans to third parties, including Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, for which we make representations and warranties that the loans meet certain underwriting and collateral documentation standards.
We are engaged in Home Equity Credit Line (“HECL”) lending. At December 31, 20182020 and December 31, 2017,2019, our HECL portfolio totaled $2.9$2.7 billion and $2.8$2.9 billion, respectively. The following schedule describes the composition of our HECL portfolio by lien status.

At December 31, 2018,2020, loans representing less than 1% of the outstanding balance in the HECL portfolio were estimated to have combined loan-to-value ratios (“CLTV”) above 100%. An estimated CLTV ratio is the ratio of our loan plus any prior lien amounts divided by the estimated current collateral-value. At origination, underwriting standards for the HECL portfolio generally include a maximum 80% CLTV with high credit scores at origination.
Approximately 89%91% of our HECL portfolio is still in the draw period, and approximately 18%19% of those loans are scheduled to begin amortizing within the next five years. We regularly analyze the risk of borrower default in the
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
event of a loan becoming fully amortizing and the risk of higher interest rates. The analysis indicates that the risk of loss from this factor is minimal in the current economic environment. The ratio of net charge-offs for the trailing twelve months to average balances at year-end 20182020 and 2017 for the HECL portfolio2019 was (0.02)(0.01)%. and 0.02%, respectively.

Total nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2018 decreased2020 increased to $252$367 million from $414$243 million at December 31, 2017,2019, primarily in the 1-4 family residential mortgage and commercial and industrial loan portfolio. However, nonaccrual loans slightly increased in the commercial real estate term loan portfolio. The largest total decrease in nonaccrual loans occurred at Amegy, mainly due to improvements in the oil and gas-related portfolio.portfolios.
The balance of nonaccrual loans can decrease due to paydowns, charge-offs, and the return of loans to accrual status under certain conditions. If a nonaccrual loan is refinanced or restructured, the new note is immediately placed on nonaccrual. If a restructured loan performs under the new terms for at least a period of six months, the loan can be considered for return to accrual status. See “Restructured Loans” following for more information. Bank policy does not allow for the conversion of nonaccrual construction and land development loans to CRE term loans. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on nonaccrual loans.

Restructured Loans
Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) are loans that have been modified to accommodate a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulties, and for whom we have granted a concession that we would not otherwise consider. TDRs decreased $24increased $158 million, or 11%103%, during 2018, primarily due to payments2020. Commercial and payoffs. Commercialcommercial real estate loans may be modified to provide the borrower temporary or permanent relief from the original contractual terms of the loan, to provide more time to complete the project, to achieve a higher lease-up percentage, to sell the property, or for other reasons. Consumer loan TDRs represent loan modifications in which a concession has been granted to the borrower who is unable to refinance the loan with another lender, or who is experiencing economic hardship. Such consumer loan TDRs may include first-lien residential mortgage loans and home equity loans.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
If the restructured loan performs for at least six months according to the modified terms, and an analysis of the customer’s financial condition indicates that we are reasonably assured of repayment of the modified principal and interest, the loan may be returned to accrual status. The borrower’s payment performance prior to and following the restructuring is taken into account to determine whether a loan should beis returned to accrual status.

We developed various debt relief programs for our borrowers who have been adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. These programs primarily began in the second quarter of 2020 and generally consisted of short-term, or 90-day, principal and interest loan payment deferrals. Consistent with accounting and regulatory guidance, loan modifications provided to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties exclusively related to the COVID-19 pandemic, in which we provided these short-term modifications or payment deferrals, are not classified as TDRs. Other loan modifications above and beyond these short-term modifications or payment deferrals are assessed for TDR classification.
During 2020, we provided payment deferrals or other payment modifications related to COVID-19 hardships with respect to approximately $4.3 billion of total loan balances. As of December 31, 2020, $3.8 billion was outstanding, of which approximately $42 million, or 1.1%, was 90 days or more past due.
Allowance for Credit Losses
In analyzingThe ACL includes the adequacyALLL and the RULC. For the year 2020, the ACL represented our estimate of current expected credit losses over the contractual term of the ALLL, we utilizeloan and lease portfolio and unfunded lending commitments as of the balance sheet date. We determined our ACL as the best estimate within a comprehensive loan grading systemrange of estimated current expected losses over the contractual remaining life of each loan. For periods prior to determine2020, the risk potentialACL represented management’s estimate of probable losses believed to be inherent in the loan portfolio at that time, and also consider the resultsdetermination of independent internal credit reviews.the appropriate level of the allowance was based on periodic evaluations of the portfolios. To determine the adequacy of the allowance, our loan and lease portfolio is broken into segmentssegmented based on loan type.

Interest Rate and Market Risk Management
Interest rate and market risk are managed centrally. Interest rate risk is the potential for reduced net interest income and other rate sensitiverate-sensitive income resulting from adverse changes in the level of interest rates. Market risk is the potential for loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of fixed incomefixed-income securities, equity securities, other earning assets, and derivative financial instruments as a result of changes in interest rates or other factors. As a financial institution that engages in transactions involving an array of financial products, we are exposed to both interest rate risk and market risk.
The Bank’sOur Board of Directors is responsible for approvingapproves the overall policies relating to the management of theour financial risk, of the Bank, including interest rate and market risk management. The Board has established ALCOthe Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) consisting of members of management, to which it has delegated the responsibility of managing our interest rate and market risk for the Bank.risk. ALCO establishes and periodically revises policy limits and reviews with the ROC the limits and limit exceptions reported by management.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is one of the most significant risks to which we are regularly exposed. In general, our goal in managing interest rate risk is to manage the balance sheet sensitivity to reduce net income volatility due to changes in interest rates.
OverWhile over the course of the last year,several years, we have maintained a moderate level of asset-sensitivity as the market rates seemed more likely to increase than to decrease. As risks shifted at the end of the year to be more balanced between higher or lower rates in the future, ALCO has undertaken strategies to reduceactively reduced the level of asset sensitivity suchthrough interest rate swap hedges and the purchase of short-to-medium duration agency pass-through securities, the decline in interest rates has led to lower deposit rate sensitivity and combined with strong deposit growth our asset sensitivity has increased. Due to our concentration in noninterest-bearing deposits as enteringwell as the low interest rates paid on our interest-bearing deposits, there is little room to reduce deposit costs.
At December 31, 2019, we had $1.5 billion of fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps hedging long-term debt (effectively converting the fixed-rate debt into floating-rate debt). In late March 2020, we terminated $1.0 billion of swaps (i.e., two $500 million swaps with maturities in August 2021 and February 2022) with a combined fair value of $36 million that adjusted the carrying value of the debt by the same amount. The basis adjustment will be
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
amortized as an adjustment to interest expense through the maturity of the debt, thereby reducing the effective interest rate. $429 million of the 2021 and 2022 debt was subsequently retired, which accelerated the amortization for the portion of the swaps hedging the retired debt. For more information on derivatives designated as qualifying hedges, see Note 7 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.
The following schedule presents all derivatives utilized in our asset-liability management (“ALM”) activities that are designated in qualifying hedging relationships as defined by GAAP as of December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019. The schedule includes the notional amount, fair value, and the weighted-average receive-fixed rate floor agreements and increasing the usefor each category of interest rate swaps designated asderivatives. The schedule for the current year has cash flow hedges shown by maturity for the next five years. Fair value hedges are shown by maturity every five to synthetically convert floating-rate assets10 years, while the previous year’s schedule has all categories shown by maturity for the next five years.

We monitor interest rate risk through the use of two complementary measurement methods: net interest income simulation, or Earnings at Risk (“EaR”), and Economic Value of Equity at Risk (“EVE”). EaR analyzes the expected change in near termnear-term (one year) net interest income in response to changes in interest rates. In the EVE method, we measure the expected changes in the fair value of equity in response to changes in interest rates.
EaR is an estimate of the change in total net interest income that would be recognized under different interest rate environments over a one-year period. This simulated impact to net interest income due to a change in rates uses as its base a modeled net interest income that is not necessarily the same as the most recent quarter’s or year’s reported net interest income. Rather, EaR is measured simulatingemploys estimated net interest income under an unchanged interest rate scenario as the basis for comparison. The EaR process then simulates changes to the base net interest income under several differentinterest rate scenarios, including parallel and nonparallel interest rate shifts across the yield curve, taking into account deposit repricing assumptions and estimates of the possible exercise of embedded options within the portfolio (e.g., a borrower’s ability to refinance a loan under a lower-rate environment). The EaR model does not contemplate changes in fee income that are amortized into interest income (e.g., premiums, discounts, origination points and costs, etc.). Our policy contains a trigger for a 10% decline in rate-sensitive income as well as a risk capacity of a 13% decline if rates were to immediately rise or fall in parallel by 200 bps. As of December 31, 2018Exceptions to the EaR declinedlimits are subject to notification and approval by 12% for a 200 bps decline in rates. This trigger violation informed our decision to move to a less asset-sensitive position throughout 2019.the ROC.
EVE is calculated as the fair value of all assets minus the fair value of liabilities. We measure changes in the dollar amount of EVE for parallel shifts in interest rates. Due to embedded optionality and asymmetric rate risk, changes in EVE can be useful in quantifying risks not apparent for small rate changes. Examples of such risks may include out-of-the-money interest rate caps (or limits) on loans, which have little effect under small rate movements but may become important if large rate changes were to occur, or substantial prepayment deceleration for low-rate mortgages

in a higher-rate environment. Our policy contains a trigger for an 8% decline in EVE as well as a risk capacity of a 10% decline if rates were to immediately rise or fall in parallel by 200 bps. Exceptions to the EVE limits are subject to notification and approval by the ROC.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Estimating the impact on net interest income and EVE requires that we assess a number of variables and make various assumptions in managing our exposure to changes in interest rates. The assessments address deposit withdrawals and deposit product migration (e.g., customers moving money from checking accounts to certificates of deposit), competitive pricing (e.g., existing loans and deposits are assumed to roll into new loans and deposits at similar spreads relative to benchmark interest rates), loan and security prepayments, and the effects of other similar embedded options. As a result of uncertainty about the maturity and repricing characteristics of both deposits and loans, we also calculate the sensitivity of EaR and EVE results to key assumptions. As most of our liabilities are comprised of indeterminate maturity and managed rate deposits, such as checking, savings, and money market accounts, the modeled results are highly sensitive to the assumptions used for these deposits, such as checking, savings and money market accounts, and also to prepayment assumptions used for loans with prepayment options. We use historical regression analysis as a guide for setting such assumptions; however, due to the current low interest rate environment, which has little historical precedent, estimated deposit behavior may not reflect actual future results. Additionally, competition for funding in the marketplace has and may again result in changes to deposit pricing on interest-bearing accounts that are greater or less than changes in benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR or the federal funds rate.
Under most rising interest rate environments,scenarios, we would expect some customers to move balances from demand deposits to interest-bearing accounts such as money market, savings, or certificates of deposit. The models are particularly sensitive to the assumption about the rate of such migration.
In addition, we assume certaina correlation, rates, often referred to as a “deposit beta,” ofwith respect to interest-bearing deposits, wherein the rates paid to customers change at a different pace when compared towith changes in average benchmark interest rates. Generally, certificates of deposit are assumed to have a high correlation rate, while interest-on-checking accounts are assumed to have a lower correlation rate. Actual results may differ materially due to factors including the shape of the yield curve, competitive pricing, money supply, our credit worthiness, of the Bank, and so forth; however, we use our historical experience as well as industry data to inform our assumptions.
The aforementioned migration and correlation assumptions result in deposit durations presented in the following schedule.

1 Assumes rates cannot go below zero in the negative rate shift.
The asset sensitivity as measured by EaR increased since December 31, 2019, primarily due to lower assumed rate sensitivity of interest-bearing deposits and an increase in noninterest-bearing deposits.
The EaR analysis focuses on parallel rate shocks across the term structure of rates. The yield curve typically does not move in a parallel manner. During the past year, an increase in short-term rates has led to a flatter yield curve as longer-term rates have not increased at the same pace as short-term rates. If we consider a flattening rate shock where the short-term rate moves +200bp+200 bps, but the ten-year10-year rate only moves +30bp,+30 bps, the increase in earningsEaR is 43% lower14% less over 1224 months, compared with the parallel +200bp+200 bps rate shock.

CHANGES IN ECONOMIC VALUE OF EQUITY
As of the dates indicated, the following schedule shows our estimated percentage change in EVE under parallel interest rate changes ranging from -100 bps to +300 bps. For these parallel changes we assumed interest rates will not decline below 0%. For non-maturity, interest-bearing deposits, the weighted average modeled beta is 46%25%. If the weighted average deposit beta increasedwere to 56%increase 6% it would decreasechange the EVE in the +200bp+100 bps rate shock from -5.6%12.0% to -7.7%11.6%. In the -100 bps rate shock, the EVE would increase due to the fact that we cap the value of our indeterminate deposits at their par value, or equivalently we assume no premium would be required to dispose of these liabilities given that depositors could be repaid at par. Since our assets increase in value as rates fall and the majority of our liabilities are indeterminate deposits, EVE increases disproportionately.

LIBOR Exposure
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority, the authority regulating LIBOR, along with various other regulatory bodies, announced that LIBOR would likely be discontinued at the end of 2021. Subsequent to that announcement,
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
in November 2020, the Financial Conduct Authority announced that many tenors of LIBOR would continue to be published through June of 2023. Bank regulators including the OCC, have instructed banks to discontinue new originations referencing LIBOR as soon as possible, but no later than December 2021. To facilitate the transition process, we have instituted an enterprise-wide program to identify, assess, and monitor risks associated with the expected discontinuance or unavailability of LIBOR, which includes active engagement with industry working groups and regulators. This program includes active involvement of senior management with regular engagement from the Enterprise Risk Management Committee. The program is structured with an emphasis towards minimizing client and internal business operational impacts, providing transparency in reporting, ensuring consistency, and creating a central governance model that aligns with FASB, IRS, and other regulatory guidance.
Our focus has centered around operational readiness, as well as the installation of processes and systems to validate that contract risk is clearly identified and understood. New originations and any modifications or renewals of LIBOR-based contracts contain fallback language to assist in an orderly transition upon selection of an alternative reference rate. For the rest of our contracts that have a duration beyond December 31, 2021 and that reference LIBOR, all fallback provisions and variations are currently being identified and sorted into classifications based upon those provisions. Upon classification, the contracts will be remediated and monitored through defined workflow paths. The goal is to clearly understand fallback provisions by loan and to have the entire portfolio in a state that simplifies ultimate conversion to a replacement index.
We have a significant number of assets and liabilities that reference LIBOR such as commercial loans, commercial real estate term loans, adjustable-rate mortgage loans, unfunded loan commitments, derivatives, and debt securities. As of December 31, 2020, we had more than $38 billion of assets that reference LIBOR, consisting mostly of commercial loans. The amount of borrowed funds that reference LIBOR as of December 31, 2020 was less than $1 billion. These amounts exclude derivative assets and liabilities on our balance sheet. As of December 31, 2020, the notional amount of our LIBOR-referenced interest rate derivative contracts was more than $16 billion, of which more than $10 billion related to contracts with central counterparty clearinghouses. Each of the LIBOR-referenced amounts described above will vary in future periods as current contracts expire with potential replacement contracts using either LIBOR with a fallback provision or an alternative reference rate. In considering a replacement rate for LIBOR indices used as reference rates in lending agreements, the ideal rate would adjust for changes in the credit environment and have a term structure. By contrast, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) is a risk-free overnight funding rate. We, along with other industry participants, continue to explore alternative indices other than SOFR which could be utilized as a replacement for LIBOR.
Market Risk –— Fixed Income
We engage in the underwriting and trading of municipal securities. This trading activity exposes us to a risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the prices of these fixed incomefixed-income securities.
At December 31, 2018,2020, we had a relatively small amount, $106$266 million, of trading assets and $85$61 million of securities sold, not yet purchased, compared with $148$182 million and $95$66 million, respectively, at December 31, 2017.2019.
We are exposed to market risk through changes in fair value. We are also exposed to market risk for interest rate swaps used to hedge interest rate risk. Changes in the fair value of AFS securities and in interest rate swaps that qualify as cash flow hedges are included in AOCI for each financial reporting period. During 2018,2020, the after-tax change in AOCI attributable to AFS securities decreasedincreased by $114$229 million, due largely to changes in the interest rate environment, compared with a $22$257 million decreaseincrease in the same prior year period.

We hold both direct and indirect investments in predominantly pre-public companies, primarily through various SBIC venture capital funds. Our equity exposure to these investments was approximately $132$135 million and $127$154 million at December 31, 20182020 and December 31, 2017,2019, respectively. On occasion, some of the companies within our SBIC investments may issue an initial public offering. In this case, the fund is generally subject to a lockout period before liquidating the investment, which can introduce additional market risk.

Sources of liquidity include both traditional forms of funding, such as deposits, borrowings, and equity and unencumbered assets, such as marketable loans and securities.

Under the PPPLF, we will be able to obtain term financing for PPP loans by pledging them to the FRB prior to March 31, 2021. In deciding whether to utilize the PPPLF as a funding source, we will take into account our current funding position and our expectation of early PPP redemption through loan forgiveness. Although the PPPLF will
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
cease after March 31, 2021, we will also have the ability to increase our borrowing capacity at the FHLB of Des Moines by pledging the PPP loans. The ability to pledge PPP loans to the FHLB of Des Moines does not have a defined expiry, and funding terms may vary.
Our investment activities can provide or use cash, depending on the asset-liability management posture taken. During 2018, held-to-maturity (“HTM”) and AFS investment securities’securities are primarily held as a source of contingent liquidity. We target securities that can be easily turned into cash through sale or repurchase agreements and whose value remains relatively stable during market disruptions. We regularly manage our short-term funding needs through secured borrowing with the securities pledged as collateral. Interest rate risk management is another consideration for selection of investment securities. Our AFS securities balances increased by $2.0 billion during 2020.
Our loan-to-total deposit ratio was 77% at December 31, 2020, compared with 85% at December 31, 2019, reflecting higher deposit growth in 2020 relative to loan growth.
If our operating, investing, and deposit activities resulted indo not provide the loan funding required, we may rely on more expensive wholesale funding for a net decrease in investment securitiesportion of our loan growth. Our use of borrowed funds (both short- and a net $130long-term) decreased by $868 million during 2020 as our deposit growth more than adequately funded our loan growth during the period. Due to the increase in cash, compared with a net $2.2 billion decrease in cash for 2017.
Maturing balances in the Bank’s loan portfolios also provide additional flexibility in managing cash flows. Lending activity during 2018 resulted in a net cash outflowaverage deposits of $1.9 billion compared with a net cash outflow of $2.1$8.6 billion during 2017.
During 2018, we paid income taxes of $207 million, compared2020 and with average loans only increasing $4.7 billion, the surplus cash went to $246 million during 2017.paying down borrowings and increasing short-term investments, which increased $5.5 billion from December 31, 2019.
We may also, from time to time, issue additional preferred stock, senior or subordinated notes or other forms of capital or debt instruments, depending on our capital, funding, asset-liability management or other needs as market conditions warrant and subject to any required regulatory approvals. Management believes that the sources of available liquidity are adequate to meet all reasonably foreseeable short-term and intermediate-term demands.

Some of these contracts are renewable or cancelablecancellable at least annually, and in certain cases, to secure favorable pricing concessions, we have committed to contracts that may extend to several years.
We also enter into derivative contracts under which we are required either to receive or pay cash, depending on changes in interest rates. These contracts are carried at fair value on the balance sheet with the fair value representing the net present value of the expected future cash receipts and payments based on market rates of interest.

Operational, Technology, and Cyber Risk Management
Operational risk is the risk to current or anticipated earnings or capital arising from inadequate or failed internal processes or systems, human errors or misconduct, or adverse external events. In our ongoing efforts to identify and manage operational risk, we have an ERM department whose responsibility is to help employees, management and the Board of Directors to assess, understand, measure, manage, and monitor risk in accordance with our Risk AppetiteManagement Framework. We have documented both controls and the Control Self-Assessment related to financial reporting under the 2013 framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and the FDICIA.
To manage and minimize our operational risk, we have in place transactional documentation requirements; systems and procedures to monitor transactions and positions; systems and procedures to detect and mitigate attempts to commit fraud, penetrate our systems or telecommunications, access customer data, and/or deny normal access to
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
those systems to our legitimate customers; regulatory compliance reviews; and periodic reviews by the Bank’sour Compliance Risk Management, Internal Audit and Credit Examination departments. Reconciliation procedures have been established to ensure that data processing systems consistently and accurately capture critical data. In addition, the Data Governance department has key governance surrounding data integrity and availability oversight. Further, we have key programs and procedures to maintain contingency and business continuity plans for operational support in the event of natural or other disasters. We also mitigate certain operational risks through the purchase of insurance, including errors and omissions and professional liability insurance.
We are continually improvingstrive to improve our oversight of operational risk, including enhancement of risk identification, risk and control self-assessments, and antifraudanti-fraud measures, which are reported on a regular basis to enterprise management committees. The Operational Risk Committee reports to the ERMC, which reports to the ROC. Key measures have been established in line with our Risk Management Framework to increase oversight by ERM and Operational Risk Management through the strengthening of new initiative reviews, and enhancements to Enterprise Supply Chain and Vendor Risk Management. We also continue to enhance and strengthen the Enterprise Procurement and Third Party Risk Management framework, enhancements to the Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery programsprogram, Enterprise Security program, and Enterprise Security programs, and the establishment of Fraud Risk Oversight, Incident Response Oversight and Technology Project Oversight programs.

In addition, the establishment of anour Enterprise Exam Management department has standardized our response and reporting, and increased our effectiveness and efficiencies with regulatory examinations,examination, communications and issues management.
We continue to make significant investments to mature our technology capabilities and to eliminate the risk from outdated and unsupported technologies (technology debt). This includes updating core banking systems as well as introducing new digital customer-facing capabilities. Technology projects, initiatives and operations are governed by a change management framework that assesses the activities and risk within our business processes to limit disruption and resource constraints. Change initiative status and risks are reviewed regularly by the Change, Initiatives, and Technology Committee that includes, among other senior executives, the CEO, CFO, COO and CRO. Initiative risk and change impact from the framework are reported to the ROC.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Technology governance is also in place at the operational level within our Enterprise and Technology Operations (ETO) division to help ensure safety, soundness, operational resiliency, and compliance with our cybersecurity requirements. ETO management teams participate in enterprise architecture review boards and technology risk councils to address such issues as enterprise standards compliance and strategic alignment, cyber vulnerability management, end-of-life, audit, risk and compliance issue management, and asset management. Thresholds are defined to escalate risks in these areas to the attention of the ORC and ERMC committees as appropriate.
The number and sophistication of attempts to disrupt or penetrate our critical systems — sometimes referred to as hacking, cyber fraud, cyber attacks, cyber terrorism,cyberattacks, or other similar names also continue— continues to grow. GivenTo combat the importance and increasingever-increasing sophistication of cyberattacks, we are continuously improving methods for detecting and preventing attacks. In addition, we have implemented policies and procedures and developed specific training for our employees and elevated our oversight and internal reporting to the Board and respective committees. Further, we regularly engage independent third-party cyber attacks,experts to test for vulnerabilities in our environment. We also conduct our own internal simulations and tabletop exercises as well as participate in financial sector-specific exercises. We have engaged consultants at both the Bank has designated cyber risk astrategic level one risk in its risk taxonomy, which places itand at the highesttechnology implementation level to assist us in better managing this critical risk.

On September 30, 2018, the Bank completed the merger of Zions Bancorporation, its former bank holding company, with, and into the Bank, formerly known as ZB, N.A. in order to reduce organizational complexity. The restructuring eliminated the bank holding company structure and associated regulatory framework, and resulted in ZB, N.A. being renamed Zions Bancorporation, National Association and becoming the top-level entity within our corporate structure.

Capital Management Actions
Weighted average diluted shares outstanding decreased by 20.9 million from 2019 to 2020, respectively. The decrease from 2019 was primarily due to the expiration of out-of-the money common stock warrants and a lower average Bank common share price. On May 22, 2020, 29.2 million common stock warrants (NASDAQ: ZIONW) expired. Each common stock warrant was convertible into 1.10 shares at an exercise price of $33.31.
Total shareholders’ equity has increased moderately and was $7.9 billion at December 31, 2020, compared with $7.4 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase during 2020 was primarily due to net income of $539 million and a $229 million after-tax increase in unrealized gains on AFS securities, which was due largely to changes in the interest rate environment. The increase was partially offset by $259 million of common and preferred stock dividends paid and $75 million of repurchases of our common stock from our publicly announced plans. Common stock and additional paid-in capital decreased $49 million, or 2%, during 2020, primarily due to common stock repurchases.
During 2018, the Bank2020, we repurchased 12.91.7 million shares of common stock from our publicly announced plans, or 1%, of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2019, for $670$75 million at an average price of $51.77$45.02 per share.

The timing and amount of any additional common sharestock repurchases will be subject to various factors, including the Bank'sour financial performance, business needs, prevailing economic conditions, stress testing, and OCC approval. The magnitude, timing, and form of capital return will be determined by the Board. Shares may be repurchased occasionally in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, utilizing Rule 10b5-1 plans or otherwise.
The BankUnder the OCC’s “Earnings Limitation Rule,” our dividend payments are restricted to an amount equal to the sum of the total of (1) our net income for that year, and (2) retained earnings for the preceding two years, unless the OCC approves the declaration and payment of dividends in excess of such amount. As of January 1, 2021, we had $761 million of retained net profits available for distribution.
We paid common dividends of $202$225 million or $1.04 per share, during 20182020, compared to $89with $226 million $0.44 per share, during 2017.2019.

We also paid dividends on preferred stock of $34 million during 2018 compared with $40 million during 2017. Seefor both 2020 and 2019.
CECL
We elected to phase-in the regulatory capital effects of the adoption of CECL, as allowed by federal bank agencies, and as described in Note 8 for additional detail about capital management transactions during 2018.
Total shareholders’ equity decreased slightly and was $7.6 billion at December 31, 2018 compared with $7.7 billion at December 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily a result of (1) $670 million from repurchases of Bank common stock, (2) $236 million from common and preferred dividends paid and (3) $111 million from a decrease in the fair value of our AFS securities due largely to changes in the interest rate environment. These decreases were partially offset by net income of $884 million.
During 2018 and 2017, the market price of our common stock was higher than the exercise price of common stock warrants on our common stock and had a dilutive effect upon earnings per share. Weighted average diluted shares decreased by 3.2 million compared with 2017, primarily due to share repurchases, partially offset by the dilutive impact of an increased common share price on warrants that have been outstanding since 2008 (Troubled Asset Relief Program or “TARP” warrants - NASDAQ: ZIONZ) and 2010 (NASDAQ: ZIONW) and employee equity grants. During 2018, 1.8 million shares of common stock were issued from the cashless exercise of 5.8 million ZIONZ common stock warrants which expired on November 14, 2018. As of December 31, 2018, the Bank had 29.3 million ZIONW warrants outstanding with an exercise price of $34.82 which expire on May 22, 2020.
The following schedule presents the diluted shares from the remaining common stock warrants at various Zions Bancorporation, N.A. common stock market prices as of February 8, 2019, excluding the effect of changes in exercise cost and warrant share multiplier from the future payment of common stock dividends.

Basel III
In 2013, the FRB, FDIC, and OCC published final rules (the “Basel III Capital Rules”) establishing a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations. The rules implemented the Basel Committee’s December 2010 framework, commonly referredWe are subject to as Basel III, for strengthening international capital standards as well as certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The Basel III capital rules became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015 and were subject to phase-in periods for certain of their components. In November 2017, the FRB, FDIC and OCC published a final rule that extended the 2017 transition provisions for certain U.S. Basel III capital rules for non-advanced approaches banks, such as the Bank. Effective January 1, 2018, the final rule retains the 2017 Basel III transitional treatment of certain DTAs and mortgage servicing assets, among others. A detailed discussion of Basel III requirements including implications for the Bank, is contained on page 9 in “Capital Standards – Basel Framework” under Part 1, Item 1 in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We met all capital adequacy requirements under the Basel III Capital Rules based upon phase-in rules as of December 31, 2018, and believe that we would meet all capital adequacy requirements on a fully phased-in basis if such requirements were currently effective.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES
Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contains a summary of the Bank’sour significant accounting policies. DiscussedDescribed below are certain significant accounting policies that we consider critical to the Bank’sour financial statements. These critical accounting policies were selected because the amounts affected by them are significant to the financial statements. Any changes to these amounts, including changes in estimates, may also be significant to the financial statements. We believe that an understanding of these policies, along with the related estimates we are required to make in recording theour financial transactions, of the Bank, is important to have a complete picture of the Bank’sour financial condition. In addition, in arriving at these estimates, we are required to make complex and subjective judgments, many of which include a high degree of uncertainty. The following discussion of these critical accounting policies includes the significant estimates related to these policies. We have discussed each of these accounting policies and the related estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
We have included, where applicable in this document, sensitivity schedules and other examples to demonstrate the impact of the changes in estimates made for various financial transactions. The sensitivities in these schedules and examples are hypothetical and should be viewed with caution. Changes in estimates are based on variations in assumptions and are not subject to simple extrapolation, as the relationship of the change in the assumption to the change in the amount of the estimate may not be linear. In addition, the effect of a variation in one assumption is in reality likely to cause changes in other assumptions, which could potentially magnify or counteract the sensitivities.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The ACL includes the ALLL and the RULC. For periods prior to 2020, the ALLL represented management’s estimate of probable losses believed to be inherent in the loan portfolio at that time. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance was based on periodic evaluations of the portfolios. This process included both quantitative and qualitative analyses, as well as a qualitative review of the results, which required a significant amount of judgment.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
The RULC provided for potential losses associated with off-balance sheet lending commitments and standby letters of credit. For periods prior to 2020, the reserve was estimated using the same procedures and methodologies as for the ALLL, in addition to assumptions regarding the probability and amount of unfunded commitments being drawn.
On January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, or CECL. Upon adoption of the ASU, we recorded the full amount of the ACL for loans and leases of $526 million, compared with $554 million at December 31, 2019, resulting in an after-tax increase to retained earnings of $20 million. The impact of the adoption of CECL for our securities portfolio was less than $1 million.
The CECL allowance is calculated based on quantitative models and management qualitative judgment based on many factors over the life of loan. The primary assumptions of the CECL quantitative model are the economic forecast, the length of the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the length of the reversion period, prepayment rates, and the credit quality of the portfolio.
As a result of this accounting standard, our ACL has become more volatile. Our ACL was $835 million as of December 31, 2020, compared with $917 million as of September 30, 2020, and $526 million as of January 1, 2020. We expect volatility to continue primarily because, under the CECL methodology, the ACL is subject to economic forecasts that may change materially from period to period. Although we believe that our methodology for determining an appropriate level for the ACL adequately addresses the various components that could potentially result in credit losses, the processes and their elements include features that may be susceptible to significant change. Any unfavorable differences between the actual outcome of credit-related events and our estimates could require an additional provision for credit losses.
For example, if the ACL was evaluated on only one baseline scenario rather than probability weighting four scenarios, the quantitatively determined amount of the ACL at December 31, 2020 would decrease by approximately $167 million. Additionally, if the probability of default risk grade for all pass-graded loans was immediately downgraded one grade on our internal risk-grading scale, the quantitatively determined amount of the ACL at December 31, 2020 would increase by approximately $87 million. These sensitivity analyses are hypothetical and have been provided only to indicate the potential impact that changes in forecasts and changes in risk grades may have on the ACL estimate. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the processes and methodologies used to estimate the ACL.
Fair Value Estimates
We measure or monitor many of our assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is the price that could be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, GAAP has established a three-level hierarchy to prioritize the valuation inputs among (1) observable inputs that reflect quoted prices in active markets, (2) inputs
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
other than quoted prices with observable market data, and (3) unobservable data such as the Bank’sour own data or single dealer nonbinding pricing quotes.
When observable market prices are not available, fair value is estimated using modeling techniques such as discounted cash flow analysis. These modeling techniques use assumptions that market participants would consider in pricing the asset or the liability, including assumptions about the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique, the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset, the life of the asset and applicable growth rate, the risk of nonperformance, and other related assumptions.
The selection and weighting of the various fair value techniques may result in a fair value higher or lower than the carrying value of the item being valued. Considerable judgment may be involved in determining the amount that is most representative of fair value.
For assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, the Bank’sour policy is to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements for those items where there is an active market. In certain cases, when market observable inputs for model-based valuation techniques may not be readily available, the Bank iswe are required to make judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in estimating the
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
fair value of the financial instrument. The models used to determine fair value adjustments are regularly evaluated by management for relevance under current facts and circumstances.
Changes in market conditions may reduce the availability of quoted prices or observable data. For example, reduced liquidity in the capital markets or changes in secondary market activities could result in observable market inputs becoming unavailable. When market data is not available, the Bank useswe use valuation techniques requiring more management judgment to estimate the appropriate fair value.
Fair value is used on a recurring basis for certain assets and liabilities in which fair value is the primary measure of accounting. Fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to measure certain assets or liabilities (including HTM securities, loans held for sale and OREO) for impairment or for disclosure purposes in accordance with current accounting guidance.
Impairment analysis also relates to long-lived assets, goodwill, and core deposit and other intangible assets. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset is not likely to be recoverable and exceeds its fair value. In determining the fair value, management uses models and applies the techniques and assumptions previously discussed.described.
InvestmentAFS securities are valued using several methodologies, which depend on the nature of the security, availability of current market information, and other factors. InvestmentAFS securities in an unrealized loss position are formally reviewed on a quarterly basis for the presence of other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). OTTI is considered toimpairment. If we have occurred if the instrument’s fair value is below its amortized cost and (1) we intendan intent to sell thean identified security, or (2) it is “moremore likely than not”not we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or (3)then we recognize an impairment equal to any existing allowance written off against the present valuesecurity. If we do not have the intent to sell a security, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell a security prior to recovery of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entireits amortized cost basis. The “more likely than not” criterionbasis, then we determine whether there is a lower threshold than the “probable” criterion.any impairment attributable to credit-related factors.
Notes 1, 3, 5, 7, and 910 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the “Investment Securities Portfolio” on page 4851 contain further information regarding the use of fair value estimates.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The ACL includes the ALLL and the RULC. The ALLL represents management’s estimate of probable losses believed to be inherent in the loan portfolio. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the portfolios. This process includes both quantitative and qualitative analyses, as well as a qualitative review of the results. The qualitative review requires a significant amount of judgment, and is described in more detail in Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
The RULC provides for potential losses associated with off-balance sheet lending commitments and standby letters of credit. The reserve is estimated using the same procedures and methodologies as for the ALLL, plus assumptions regarding the probability and amount of unfunded commitments being drawn.
Although we believe that our processes for determining an appropriate level for the allowance adequately address the various components that could potentially result in credit losses, the processes and their elements include features that may be susceptible to significant change. Any unfavorable differences between the actual outcome of credit-related events and our estimates could require an additional provision for credit losses.As an example, if the probability of default risk grade for all pass-graded commercial and CRE loans was immediately downgraded one grade on our internal risk-grading scale, the quantitatively determined amount of the ALLL at December 31, 2018 would increase by approximately $89 million. This sensitivity analysis is hypothetical and has been provided only to indicate the potential impact that changes in risk grades may have on the allowance estimate.
Although the qualitative process is subjective, it represents the Bank’s best estimate of qualitative factors impacting the determination of the ACL. We believe that given the procedures we follow in determining the ACL, the various components used in the current estimation processes are appropriate.
Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Credit Risk Management” on page 52contains further information and more specific descriptions of the processes and methodologies used to estimate the ACL.
Accounting for Goodwill
Goodwill is initially recorded at fair value in the financialsfinancial statements of a reporting unit at the time of its acquisition and is subsequently evaluated at least annually for impairment in accordance with current accounting guidance. We perform this annual test at the beginning of the fourth quarter, annually, or more often if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any of our reporting units, inclusive of goodwill, is less than fair value. The goodwill impairment test for a given reporting unit compares its fair value with its carrying value. If the carrying amount, inclusive of goodwill, is more likely than not to exceed its fair value, additional quantitative analysis must be performed to determine the amount, if any, of goodwill impairment. Our reporting units with goodwill are Amegy, CB&T, and Zions Bank.
To determine the fair value of a reporting unit, we historically have used a combination of up to three separate quantitative methods: comparable publicly-tradedpublicly traded commercial banks in the westernWestern and southwesternSouthwestern states (“Market Value”); where applicable, comparable acquisitions of commercial banks in the westernWestern and southwesternSouthwestern states (“Transaction Value”); and the discounted present value of management’s estimates of future cash flows. The Transaction Value approach was not used in the 2020 goodwill analysis due to the lack of comparable transactions that occurred in 2020. Acquisition activity declined in 2020, which was likely due to the economic uncertainty from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Critical assumptions that are used as part of these calculations may include:
selection•Selection of comparable publicly-tradedpublicly traded companies based on location, size, and business focus and composition;
selection•Selection of market comparable acquisition transactions, if available, based on location, size, business focus and composition, and date of the transaction;
the•The discount rate, which is based on the Bank’sour estimate of itsthe cost of equity capital;
the•The projections of future earnings and cash flows of the reporting unit;
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
•The relative weight given to the valuations derived by the three methods described; and
the•The control premium associated with reporting units.
We apply a control premium in the Market Value approach to determine the reporting units’ equity values. Control premiums represent the ability of a controlling shareholder to change how the Bank iswe are managed and can cause the fair value of a reporting unit as a whole to exceed its market capitalization. Based on a review of historical bank acquisition transactions within the Bank’sour geographic footprint, and a comparison of the target banks’ market values 30 days prior to the announced transaction to the deal value, we have determined that up to a 25% control premium ranging from 0% to 15% for the reporting units was appropriate.
Since estimates are an integral part of the impairment test computations, changes in these estimates could have a significant impact on any calculatedour reporting units' fair value and the goodwill impairment amount.amount, if any. Estimates include economic conditions, which impact the
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
assumptions related to interest and growth rates, loss rates, and imputed cost of equity capital. The fair value estimates for each reporting unit incorporate current economic and market conditions, including Federal Reserve monetary policy expectations and the impact of legislative and regulatory changes. Additional factors that may significantly affect the estimates include, among others, competitive forces, customer behaviors and attrition, loan losses, changes in growth trends, cost structures and technology, changes in equity market values and merger and acquisition valuations, and changes in industry conditions.
Weakening in the economic environment, a decline in the performance of the reporting units, or other factors could cause the fair value of one or more of the reporting units to fall below carrying value, resulting in a goodwill impairment charge. Additionally, new legislative or regulatory changes not anticipated in management’s expectations may cause the fair value of one or more of the reporting units to fall below the carrying value, resulting in a goodwill impairment charge. Any impairment charge would not affect the Bank’sour regulatory capital ratios, tangible common equity ratio, or liquidity position.
During the fourth quarter of 2017,2020, we performed a full quantitative analysisour annual goodwill impairment evaluation of the entire organization, effective October 1, 2020. We concluded that none of our reporting units’ fair value as described above. Ourunits were impaired. Furthermore, the evaluation process determined that the fair values of Amegy, CB&T, and Zions Bank exceeded their carrying values by 35%12%, 54%28%, and 78%44%, respectively. Additionally, we performed a hypothetical sensitivity analysis on the discount rate assumption to evaluate the impact of an adverse change to this assumption. If the discount rate applied to future earnings werewas increased by 100 bps, the fair values of Amegy, CB&T, and Zions Bank would exceed their carrying values by 33%9%, 52%24%, and 72%39%, respectively.
During the fourth quarter of 2018, we performed our annual goodwill impairment evaluation, effective October 1, 2018. The Bank elected to perform a qualitative analysis to determine if the quantitative analysis performed in prior years as described above was required. The Bank’s qualitative analysis assessed factors related to each reporting unit to determine if it was more likely than not that the carrying value of any reporting unit was greater than the unit’s fair value. The qualitative factors considered in our assessment for each reporting unit included (1) economic, industry and market conditions, (2) regulatory or political developments that could negatively impact operating costs and overall financial performance of any of our specific reporting units, and (3) any changes in management, key personnel, strategy, customers, and any new or evolving litigation.
None of the factors considered in our qualitative assessment gave any indication that the reporting units’ fair values decreased during the 2018 fiscal year. Additionally, as evidenced in the Business Segment Analysis section of the MD&A, each reporting unit’s key performance metrics remained materially unchanged or improved in 2018 compared to 2017. Considering the improved performance of each reporting unit and the lack of any significant concerns being identified in our qualitative assessment, we concluded that it is more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit continues to be greater than its carry amount making further quantitative impairment testing unnecessary. As a result, none of our reporting units were subject to goodwill impairment during 2018 or were determined to be at-risk for a potential goodwill impairment in the near future based on information known at this time.

Allowance for loan and lease losses
| | | | | |
| Description of the Matter | The Bank’s loan and lease portfolio and the associated allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL), were $53.5 billion and $777 million as of December 31, 2020, respectively. The provision for loan losses was $385 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. As discussed in Notes 2 and 6 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 2020 the Bank adopted new accounting guidance related to the estimate of ALLL, resulting in ALLL increase of $2 million. The ALLL represented the Bank’s estimate of current expected credit losses over the contractual term of the loan and lease portfolio as of the balance sheet date. Management’s allowance estimate includes quantitative calculations based on statistical analysis of historical loss experiences dependent on forecasted economic data over a reasonable forecast period, losses estimated using historical loss experience for periods outside the reasonable economic forecast period (collectively the quantitative portion), supplemented with qualitative factors adjustments that bring the allowance to the level management deemed as appropriate based on factors that are not fully considered in the quantitative analysis. The statistical analysis of historical loss experience was derived from a collection of econometric models used to determine the quantitative portion of the ALLL. Judgment was required by management in determining the economic data used as inputs into the econometric models. |
| |
| How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit | Auditing management’s estimate of the ALLL is complex due to the judgmental nature of the economic data used in the econometric models used to derive the quantitative portion of the ALLL. |
| |
| We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls that address the risk of material misstatement in the selection of the economic data applied in the econometric models used to derive the quantitative portion of the ALLL. We tested controls over the Bank’s allowance governance process, model development and model risk management as it relates to the econometric models used in the ALLL process, and the selection of the economic data utilized in those models. Such testing included testing controls over model governance, controls over data input into the models, controls over model calculation accuracy, observing key management meetings where the economic forecasts including variables used in the estimate are reviewed and approved, including challenges as to alternative forecasted economic data, and output of the ALLL derived from the econometric models. |
| |
| To test the reasonableness of the economic data input in the econometric models, our procedures, which were supported by specialists, included identification of economic data that could potentially impact accuracy of the ALLL, evaluating management’s ALLL estimate by obtaining an understanding of the forecasted economic data used, including consideration that the national macroeconomic factors are based on third party published data, and testing the selected economic data used to published third party data. We considered the reasonableness of economic data based on third party sources, including comparison to other alternative economic data. |
| |
| Further, we compared the resulting ALLL to peer bank data. We assessed whether the total amount of the ALLL estimate was consistent with the Bank’s historical loss information, credit quality statistics, and publicly observable indicators of macroeconomic financial conditions and whether the total ALLL amount was reflective of current expected losses in the loan and lease portfolio as of the consolidated balance sheet date. |

1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
Zions Bancorporation, National Association (“Zionsand its subsidiaries (collectively “Zions Bancorporation, N.A.,”, “the Bank,” “we,” “our,” “us”) istogether comprise a national commercial bank headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Bank providesWe provide a fullwide range of banking products and related services in 11 westernWestern and southwesternSouthwestern states through seven7 separately managed and branded unitsaffiliates, as follows: Zions Bank in Utah, Idaho and Wyoming; California Bank & Trust (“CB&T”); Amegy Bank (“Amegy”), in Texas; National Bank of Arizona (“NBAZ”); Nevada State Bank (“NSB”); Vectra Bank Colorado (“Vectra”), in Colorado and New Mexico; and The Commerce Bank of Washington (“TCBW”) which operates under that name in Washington and under the name The Commerce Bank of Oregon (“TCBO”) in Oregon.
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include theour accounts and those of the Zions Bancorporation, National Association and itsour majority-owned, consolidated subsidiaries. Unconsolidated investments where we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the respective investee are accounted for using the equity method of accounting; those that are not consolidated or accounted for using the equity method of accounting are accounted for under cost or fair value accounting. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Assets held in an agency or fiduciary capacity are not included in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and prevailing practices within the financial services industry. References to GAAP, including standards promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), are made according to sections of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). Changes to the ASC are made with Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) that include consensus issues of the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”).Force. In certain cases, ASUs are issued jointly with International Financial Reporting Standards.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. These reclassifications did not affect net income or shareholders’ equity.
Variable Interest Entities
A variable interest entity (“VIE”) is consolidated when a company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Current accounting guidance requires continuous analysis on a qualitative rather than a quantitative basis to determine the primary beneficiary of a VIE. At the commencement of our involvement, and periodically thereafter, we consider our consolidation conclusions for all entities with which we are involved. As of December 31, 20182020, and 2017,2019, we have no VIEs that have been consolidated in the Bank’sour financial statements.
Statement of Cash Flows
For purposes of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, “cash and cash equivalents” are defined as those amounts included in cash and due from banks in the consolidated balance sheets.
Fair Value Estimates
We measure many of our assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is the price that could be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. To improve consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, GAAP has established a hierarchy to prioritize the valuation inputs among three levels. The Bank prioritizesWe prioritize quoted prices in active markets and minimizesminimize reliance on
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
unobservable inputs when possible. When observable market prices are not available, fair value is estimated using modeling techniques such as discounted cash flow analysis. These modeling techniques use assumptions that market
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
participants would consider in pricing the asset or the liability — including assumptions about the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique — the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset, the life of the asset and applicable growth rate, the risk of nonperformance, and other related assumptions. Changes in market conditions may reduce the availability of quoted prices or observable data. When market data is not available, the Bank useswe use valuation techniques requiring professional judgment to estimate the appropriate fair value. See Note 3 of the Notes“Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsStatements” for further information regarding the use of fair value estimates.
Security Resell Agreements
Security resell agreements represent overnight and term agreements with the majority maturing within 30 days. Due to increased cash reserves and in order to increase yield, we have extended the maturity of some security resell agreements beyond 30 days. As of December 31, 2020, 28% of all security resell agreements have a maturity beyond 30 days but NaN greater than 50 days. These agreements are generally treated as collateralized financing transactions and are carried at amounts at which the securities were acquired plus accrued interest. Either the Bank,we, or in some instances third partiesthird-parties on itsour behalf, take possession of the underlying securities. The fair value of such securities is monitored throughout the contract term to ensure that asset values remain sufficient to protect against counterparty default. We are permitted by contract to sell or repledge certain securities that we accept as collateral for security resell agreements. If sold, our obligation to return the collateral is recorded as “securities sold, not yet purchased” and included as a liability in “Federal funds and other short-term borrowings.” At December 31, 2018,2020, we held $1.2$5.7 billion of securities for which we were permitted by contract to sell or repledge. Security resell agreements averaged $488 million$2.1 billion during 2018,2020, and the maximum amount outstanding at any month-end during 20182020 was $1.2 billion.$6.4 billion.
Investment Securities
We classify our investment securities according to their purpose and holding period. Gains or losses on the sale of securities are recognized using the specific identification method and recorded in noninterest income.
Held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt securities are carried at amortized cost with purchase discounts or premiums accreted or amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the security. The Bank hasWe have the intent and ability to hold such securities until maturity. For HTM securities, the ACL is assessed consistent with the approach described in Note 6 for loans carried at amortized cost.
Available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities are stated at fair value and generally consist of debt securities held for investment. Unrealized gains and losses of AFS securities, after applicable taxes, are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”).
We review AFS securities in an unrealized loss position are formally reviewed on a quarterly our investment securities portfoliobasis for the presence of impairment. If we have an intent to sell an identified security, or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, then we recognize an impairment equal to any declines in valueexisting allowance written off against the security. If we do not have the intent to sell a security, and it is more likely than not that are consideredwe will not be required to be other-than-temporarysell a security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, then we determine whether there is any impairment (“OTTI”).attributable to credit-related factors. The process, methodology, and factors considered to evaluate securities for OTTIimpairment are discusseddescribed further in Note 5.
Trading securities are stated at fair value and consist of securities acquired for short-term appreciation or other trading purposes. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in trading income, which is included in “Capital marketsMarkets and foreign exchange.Foreign Exchange.”
The fair values of investment securities, as estimated under current accounting guidance, are discusseddescribed in Note 3.
LoansLeases
As a lessee, when we enter a lease contract, we classify and Allowanceaccount for Credit Lossesthe lease as either a finance lease or an operating lease, depending on the terms and conditions of the lease. A finance lease is recorded as an asset and a liability, and the asset is generally depreciated over the lease term. The lease liability is reduced as lease payments are made. An operating lease is recorded as a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liability. These balance sheet items are reduced as lease payments are made. Lease payments are expensed over the lease term; they
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
are recorded as rent expense and are recognized on a straight-line basis. Lease-related assets are reviewed for impairment on an on-going basis.
The lease term is the non-cancelable period that we have the right to use the leased asset. This term begins on the commencement date of the lease and incorporates options to extend or renew the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise these options.
Loans
Loans are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income. Unearned income, unamortized purchase premiums and discounts, and net deferred loan fees and costs, which includes deferred fees net of deferred direct loan origination costs, isare amortized to interest income over the life of the loan using the interest method. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.
At the time of origination, we determine whether loans will be held for investment or held for sale. We may subsequently change our intent to hold loans for investment and reclassify them as held for sale. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or fair value. A valuation allowance is recorded when cost exceeds fair value based on reviews at the time of reclassification and periodically thereafter. Gains and losses are recorded in noninterest income based on the difference between sales proceeds and carrying value.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
We evaluate loans throughout their lives for signs of credit deterioration, which may impact the loan’s status, and potentially impact our accounting for that loan. Loan status categories include past due as to contractual payments, nonaccrual, impaired, and restructured, (includingincluding troubled debt restructurings “TDRs”(“TDRs”). Our accounting policies for these loan statuses and our estimation of the related allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) are discusseddescribed further in Note 6.
In the ordinary course of business, we transfer portions of loans under participation agreements to manage credit risk and our portfolio concentration. We evaluate the loan participations to determine if they meet the appropriate accounting guidance to qualify as sales. Certain purchased loans require separate accounting procedures that are also discusseddescribed in Note 6.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) includes the ALLL and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments (“RULC”) and represents our. For periods prior to 2020, the ALLL represented management’s estimate of probable losses believed to be inherent in the loan portfolio at that may be recognized fromtime, and the RULC was estimated using the same procedures and methodologies as for the ALLL, in addition to assumptions regarding the probability and amount of unfunded commitments being drawn.
On January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and its subsequent updates, often referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model. CECL changes how the ACL is measured for loans and for additional financial assets, including HTM securities. Under CECL, the ACL will represent our estimate of current expected credit losses over the contractual term of the loan and lease portfolio and unfunded lending commitments that are not recoverable.as of the balance sheet date. The ACL for debt securities is estimated separately from loans. Further discussion of our estimation process for the ACL is included in Note 6.
Other Noninterest-BearingNoninterest-bearing Investments
These investments include investments in private equity funds (referred— referred to in this document as private equity investments “PEIs”(“PEIs”), — venture capital securities, securities acquired for various debt and regulatory requirements, bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”), and certain other noninterest-bearing investments. See further discussionsdiscussion in Notes 5, 15 andNote 3.
Certain PEIs and venture capital securities are accounted for under the equity method and some are reported at fair value. Changes in fair value and gains and losses from sales are recognized in noninterest income. The values assigned to the securities where no market quotations exist are based upon available information and may not
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
necessarily represent amounts that will ultimately be realized. Such estimated amounts depend on future circumstances and will not be realized until the individual securities are liquidated.
Bank-owned life insuranceBOLI is accounted for at fair value based on the cash surrender values (“CSVs”) of the general account insurance policies. A third-party service provides these values.
Other PEIs, and those acquired for various debt and regulatory requirements, are accounted for at cost.cost less impairment (if any), plus or minus observable price changes from an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, with such changes recognized in income. Periodic reviews are conducted for impairment by comparing carrying values with estimates of fair value determined according to the previous discussion.
Premises, Equipment and Software, Net
Premises, equipment, and software are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation, computed primarily on the straight-line method, is charged to operations over the estimated useful lives of the properties, generally 25 to 40 years for buildings, 3three to 10 years for furniture and equipment, and 3three to 10 years for software, including capitalized costs related to the Bank’sour technology initiatives. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements (including any extension options that are reasonably certain to be exercised), whichever is shorter. Premises, equipment and software are evaluated for impairment on a periodic basis.
Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets
Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized. We subject these assets to annual specified impairment tests as of the beginning of the fourth quarter and more frequently if changing conditions warrant. Core deposit assets and other intangibles with finite useful lives are generally amortized on an accelerated basis using an estimated useful life of up to 12 years.
Business Combinations
Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Upon initially obtaining control, we recognize 100% of all acquired assets and all assumed liabilities, regardless of the percentage owned. The assets and liabilities are recorded at their estimated fair values, with goodwill being recorded when such fair values are less than the cost of acquisition. Certain transaction and restructuring costs are expensed as incurred.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Changes to estimated fair values from a business combination are recognized as an adjustment to goodwill over the measurement period, which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date. Results of operations of the acquired business are included in our statement of income from the date of acquisition.
Other Real Estate Owned
Other real estate owned (“OREO”) consists principally of commercial and residential real estate obtained in partial or total satisfaction of loan obligations. Amounts are recorded initially at fair value (less any selling costs) based on property appraisals at the time of transfer and subsequently at the lower of cost or fair value (less any selling costs).
Derivative Instruments
We use derivative instruments — including interest rate swaps and purchased and sold options such as floors and basis swaps, swaps—as part of our overall interest rate risk management strategy. Derivatives are an important tool used in managing our overall asset and liability sensitivities to remain within management’s stated interest rate risk thresholds. Their use allows us to adjust and align our naturally occurring mix of fixed and floating-rate assets and liabilities to manage interest income volatility by synthetically converting variable-rate assets to fixed-rate, or synthetically converting fixed-rate funding instruments to floating rates.floating-rates.
We also execute both interest rate and short-term foreign currency derivative instruments with our commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. These derivatives are immediately hedged by offsetting derivatives with third partiesthird-parties such that we minimize our net risk exposure as a result of such transactions. We record all derivatives at fair value in the balance sheet as either other assets or other liabilities. The accounting for changesthe change in value of a derivative depends on whether or not the transaction has been designated and qualifies
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
for hedge accounting. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges are reported and measured at fair value through earnings. See Note 7 for more information.
Derivatives in Designated Accounting Hedge
We apply hedge accounting to certain derivatives executed for risk management purposes, primarily interest rate risk. To qualify for hedge accounting, a derivative must be highly effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and the hedging relationship must be formally documented. We primarily use regression analysis to assess the effectiveness of each hedging relationship, unless the hedge qualifies for other methods of assessing effectiveness (e.g., shortcut or critical terms match), both at inception and on an ongoing basis. We use Accounting Hedgesdesignate derivatives as designated fair value and cash flow hedges for accounting purposes and these hedges can be a significant aspect of the Bank’sour overall interest risk sensitivity management. The BankWe may add additional hedging strategies and apply hedge accounting to the strategies as it deems necessary. See Note 7 for more information regarding the accounting for derivatives designated as hedging instruments.
Commitments and Letters of Credit
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit, and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they become payable. The credit risk associated with these commitments is evaluated in a manner similar to the ALLL. The RULC is presented separately in the balance sheet.
Revenue Recognition
Service charges and fees on deposit accounts are recognized in accordance with published deposit account agreements for customer accounts or contractual agreements for commercial accounts. Other service charges, commissions, and fees include interchange fees, bank services, and other fees, which are generally recognized at the time of transaction or as the services are performed.
Share-BasedShare-based Compensation
Share-based compensation generally includes grants of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and other awards to employees and non-employeenonemployee directors. We recognize compensation expense in the statement of income based on the grant-date value of the associated share-based awards. See further discussion in Note 18.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
19.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) and liabilities (“DTLs”) are determined based on temporary differences between financial statement asset and liability amounts and their respective tax basis and are measured using enacted tax laws and rates. The effect on deferred tax assetsDTAs and liabilitiesDTLs of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assetsDTAs are recognized subject to management’s judgment that realization is more likely than not. Unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions relate primarily to tax credits on technology initiatives. See further discussion in Note 19.20.
Net Earnings Per Common Share
Net earnings per common share is based on net earnings applicable to common shareholders, which is net of preferred stock dividends. Basic net earnings per common share is based on the weighted average outstanding common shares during each year. Unvested share-based awards with rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends are considered participating securities and included in the computation of basic earnings per share. Diluted net earnings per common share is based on the weighted average outstanding common shares during each year, including common stock equivalents. Stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, and stock warrants are converted to common stock equivalents using the more dilutive of the treasury stock method or the two-class method. Diluted net earnings per common share excludes common stock equivalents whose effect is antidilutive. See further discussion in Note 20.21.

For leases with a term of 12 months or less, however, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend primarily on its classification as a finance or operating lease.

This ASU addresses certain operational accounting concerns of modifying contracts such as debt, lease, and derivative agreements that reference LIBOR, or another rate, that is expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform.
The ASU provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the accounting requirements for contract modifications for contracts that reference LIBOR. This ASU also provides for a one-time election to sell or transfer to available-for-sale or trading certain qualifying held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt securities. Additionally, this guidance provides various optional expedients for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform. | | April 1, 2020 | | We adopted ASU 2020-04 on April 1, 2020; the impact upon adoption was not significant as no practical expedients were applied in the current period, but will be applied in future periods.
To date, we have identified a significant number of contracts referencing LIBOR across various business units and contract types. Additionally, we have designated hedging relationships that utilize LIBOR-indexed derivatives and hedge the LIBOR exposure of floating-rate commercial loans and our fixed-rate debt. Remediation of these LIBOR exposures will constitute a significant operational effort. While the full impact of reference rate reform is still being determined, the application of the ASU and its practical expedients will significantly reduce the operational and financial statementsor other significant matters

Intangibles – Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Topic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Cost Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract
| | This ASU provides revised accounting guidance related to the accounting for implementation costs associated with Cloud Computing Arrangements that meet the criteria for a service contract. Some of the main provisions include:
-Implementation costs for cloud computing arrangements will be capitalized as an asset or recognized as an expense when incurred on the basis of existing GAAP, specifically guidance already provided around internal-use software.
-The amortization period for capitalized amounts will be the noncancelable hosting contract term plus any expected renewal periods.
-Entities in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract must provide certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures.
-For transition there is an option to either apply guidance retrospectively or prospectively.
| | January 1, 2019 | | The effective date of this ASU is January 1, 2020 but we have elected to early adopt this Standard, as of January 1, 2019, prospectively. However, a primary purpose of this ASU was to clarify existing accounting guidance and reduce diversity in practice and the Bank has historically already been applying the guidance as clarified in this ASU. Consequently, adoption will have little, if any, impact on the Bank’s financial statements. |

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and subsequent related ASUs
| | The core principle of the new guidance is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The banking industry does not expect significant changes because major sources of revenue are from financial instruments that have been excluded from the scope of the new standard, (including loans, derivatives, debt and equity securities, etc.). However, these new standards affect other fees charged by banks, such as asset management fees, credit card interchange fees, deposit account fees, etc. Adoption may be made on a full retrospective basis with practical expedients, or on a modified retrospective basis with a cumulative effect adjustment. Additionally, the new guidance significantly increases the disclosures related to revenue recognition practices. | | January 1, 2018 | | We adopted this guidance using the modified retrospective transition method. There was no material impact at adoption to the Bank’s consolidated financial statements. New disclosures are found in Footnote 16. |

– Equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method would be measured at fair value through net income.
– Changes in instrument-specific credit risk for financial liabilities that are measured under the fair value option would be recognized in OCI
– Elimination of the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments carried at amortized cost. However, it will require the use of exit price when measuring the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for disclosure purposes. | | January 1, 2018 | | The transition adjustment upon adoption was booked through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the year. Amendments related to equity securities without readily determinable fair values were applied prospectively to equity investments that existed as of the adoption date, if applicable.
The adoption of this guidance was determined to be immaterial in all aspects. We refined our valuation models to better account for the exit price, which does not impact our financial statements, but does have an impact on our disclosures, as provided in Footnote 3. |

3. FAIR VALUE
Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, a hierarchy has been established that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses the following three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:liabilities:
Level 1 –— Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Bank haswe have the ability to access;
Level 2 –— Observable inputs other than Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in less active markets, observable inputs other than quoted prices that are used in the valuation of an asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means; and
Level 3 –— Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined by pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is classified is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Market activity is presumed to be orderly in the absence of evidence of forced or disorderly sales, although such sales may still be indicative of fair value. Applicable accounting guidance precludes the use of blockage factors or liquidity adjustments due to the quantity of securities held by an entity.
We use fair value to measure certain assets and liabilities on a recurring basis when fair value is the primary measure for accounting. Fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to measure certain assets when adjusting carrying values, such as the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting, including recognition of impairment on assets. Fair value is also used when providing required disclosures for certain financial instruments.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Fair Value Policies and Procedures
We have various policies, processes, and controls in place to ensure that fair values are reasonably developed, reviewed, and approved for use. These include a Securities Valuation Committee, comprised of executive management, that reviews and approves on a quarterly basis the key components of fair value estimation, including critical valuation assumptions for Level 3 modeling. A Model Risk Management Group conducts model validations, including internal models, and sets policies and procedures for revalidation, including the timing of revalidation.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Third PartyThird-party Service Providers
We use a third party pricing service to measure fair value for approximately 95% of our AFS Level 2 securities. Fair value measurements for other AFS Level 2 securities generally use certain inputs corroborated by market data and include standard discounted cash flow analysis.
For Level 2 securities, the third partythird-party pricing service provides documentation on an ongoing basis that presents market corroborative data, including detaildetailed pricing information and market reference data. The documentation includes benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data, including information from the vendor trading platform. We review, test, and validate this information as appropriate. Absent observable trade data, we do not adjust prices from our third partythird-party sources.
The following describes the hierarchy designations, valuation methodologies and key inputs to measure fair value on a recurring basis for designated financial instruments:
Available-for-Sale
U.S. Treasury, Agencies and Corporations
U.S. Treasury securities are measured under Level 1 using quoted market prices when available. U.S. agencies and corporations are measured under Level 2 generally using the previously discussed third partymentioned third-party pricing service.
Municipal Securities
Municipal securities are measured under Level 2 using the third partythird-party pricing service.
Money Market Mutual Funds and Other
Money market mutual funds and other securities are measured under Level 1 or Level 2. For Level 1, quoted market prices are used which may include net asset values (“NAVs”) or their equivalents. Level 2 valuations generally use quoted prices for similar securities. With the adoption of ASU 2016-01, as of January 1, 2018 our money market mutual funds are no longer classified as AFS and are now recognized in trading.
Trading Account
Securities in the trading account are generally measured under Level 2 using third partythird-party pricing service providers as described previously.
Held-to-Maturity
HTM securities are carried at amortized cost, but for disclosure purposes are measured at fair value using a third partythird-party pricing service or an internal model. The internal model utilizes observable market yields as inputs.
Bank-OwnedBank-owned Life Insurance
Bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”)BOLI is measured under Level 2 according to CSVs of the insurance policies that are provided by a third partythird-party service. Nearly all policies are general account policies with CSVs based on the Bank’sour claims on the assets of the insurance companies. The insurance companies’ investments include predominantly fixed incomefixed-income securities consisting of investment-grade corporate bonds and various types of mortgage instruments. Management regularly reviews its BOLI investment performance, including concentrations among insurance providers.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Private Equity Investments
PEIs are generally measured under Level 3. The majority of these PEIs are held in the Bank’sour Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) and are early-stage venture investments. The fair value measurements of these investments are reviewed at least on a quarterly basis, including whenever a new round of financing occurs. Certain of these investments may be measured using multiples of operating performance. The fair value measurements of PEIs are reviewed on a quarterly basis by the Securities Valuation Committee. The Equity Investments Committee,
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
consisting of executives familiar with the investments, reviews periodic financial information, including audited financial statements when available.
Certain valuation analytics may be employed that include current and projected financial performance, recent financing activities, economic and market conditions, market comparables,comparable companies, market liquidity, sales restrictions, and other factors. A significant change in the expected performance of the individual investment would result in a change in the fair value measurement of the investment. The amount of unfunded commitments to invest is disclosed in Note 15.16. Certain restrictions apply for the redemption of these investments and certain investments are prohibited by the Volcker Rule. See discussions in Notes 5 and 15.16.
Agriculture Loan Servicing
This asset results from our servicing of agriculture loans approved and funded by Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation (“FAMC”). We provide this servicing under an agreement with FAMC for loans they own. The asset’s fair value represents our projection of the present value of future cash flows measured under Level 3 using discounted cash flow methodologies.
Interest-OnlyInterest-only Strips
Interest-only strips are created as a by-product of the securitization process. When the guaranteed portions of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) 7(a) loans are pooled, interest-only strips may be created in the pooling process. The asset’s fair value represents our projection of the present value of future cash flows measured under Level 3 using discounted cash flow methodologies.
Deferred Compensation Plan Assets and Obligations
Invested assets in the deferred compensation plan consist of shares of registered investment companies. These mutual funds are valued under Level 1 at quoted market prices, which represents the NAV of shares held by the plan at the end of the period.
Derivatives
Derivatives are measured according to their classification as either exchange-traded or over-the-counter. Exchange-traded derivatives consist of foreign currency exchange contracts measured under Level 1 because they are traded in active markets. Over-the-counter derivatives, including those for customers, consist of interest rate swaps and options. These derivatives are measured under Level 2 using third partythird-party services. Observable market inputs include yield curves (the— the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) swap curve and relevant overnight index swap curves),curves — foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, option volatilities, counterparty credit risk, and other related data. Credit valuation adjustments are required to reflect nonperformance risk for both the Bankus and the respective counterparty. These adjustments are determined generally by applying a credit spread to the total expected exposure of the derivative.
Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased
Securities sold, not yet purchased, included in “Federal funds and other short-term borrowings” on the balance sheet, are measured under Level 1 using quoted market prices. If not available, quoted prices under Level 2 for similar securities are used.
Loans
Loans are generally carriedmeasured at amortized cost, butunless they do not share risk characteristics with other loans. For those loans, we estimate lifetime expected credit losses on an individual basis. When a loan is individually
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
evaluated for disclosure purposes areexpected credit losses, we estimate a specific reserve for the loan based on either the projected present value of the loan’s future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral. See Note 6 for more information regarding the measurement method for our loans.
For loans measured at fair value according to their status as nonimpaired or impaired. For nonimpaired loans,amortized cost, fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the LIBORapplicable yield curve adjusted by a factor whichthat reflects the credit, interest rate risk, and liquidity inherent in the loan.

We recognized net gains of $1 million in 20182020 and $2$3 million in 20172019 from the sale of OREO properties that had a carrying value at the time of sale of approximately $4 million in 2018 and $6 million in 2017. Previous2020 and $5 million in 2019. Prior to their sale in these years, we recognized an insignificant amount of impairment on these properties in 20182020 and 2017.2019.
PEIs carried at cost were measured at fair value for impairment purposes according to the methodology previously discusseddescribed for these investments. Amounts of PEIs carried at cost were $10$8 million at both December 31, 20182020 and 2017.at December 31, 2019. Amounts of other noninterest-bearing investments carried at cost were $329$109 million and $338$157 million at December 31, 20182020, and 2017,2019, respectively, which were comprised of Federal Reserve and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock. PEIs accounted for using the equity method were $35$61 million and $36$45 million at December 31, 20182020, and 2017,2019, respectively.
Impaired (or nonperforming) loansLoans that are collateral-dependent were measured at fair value based onthe lower of amortized cost or the fair value of the collateral. OREO was measured initially at fair value based on collateral appraisals at the time of transfer and subsequently at the lower of cost or fair value.
Measurement of fair value for collateral-dependent loans and OREO was based on third partythird-party appraisals that utilize one or more valuation techniques (income, market and/or cost approaches). Any adjustments to calculated fair value were made based on recently completed and validated third partythird-party appraisals, third partythird-party appraisal services, automated valuation services, or our informed judgment. Evaluations were made to determine that the appraisal process met the relevant concepts and requirements of applicable accounting guidance.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Automated valuation services may be used primarily for residential properties when values from any of the previous methods were not available within 90 days of the balance sheet date. These services use models based on market,
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
economic, and demographic values. The use of these models has only occurred in a very few instances and the related property valuations have not been sufficiently significant to consider disclosure under Level 3 rather than Level 2.
Impaired loansLoans that are not collateral-dependent were measured based on the present value of future cash flows discounted at the expected coupon rates over the lives of the loans. Because the loans were not discounted at market interest rates, the valuations do not represent fair value and have been excluded from the nonrecurring fair value balanceas previously discussed in the preceding schedules.this Note.
Fair ValuePrivate Equity Investments
PEIs are generally measured under Level 3. The majority of these PEIs are held in our Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) and are early-stage venture investments. The fair value measurements of these investments are reviewed at least on a quarterly basis, including whenever a new round of financing occurs. Certain Financial Instrumentsof these investments may be measured using multiples of operating performance. The fair value measurements of PEIs are reviewed on a quarterly basis by the Securities Valuation Committee. The Equity Investments Committee, consisting of executives familiar with the investments, reviews periodic financial information, including audited financial statements when available.
Following is a summaryCertain valuation analytics may be employed that include current and projected financial performance, recent financing activities, economic and market conditions, market comparable companies, market liquidity, sales restrictions, and other factors. A significant change in the expected performance of the carrying valuesindividual investment would result in a change in the fair value measurement of the investment. The amount of unfunded commitments to invest is disclosed in Note 16. Certain restrictions apply for the redemption of these investments and estimated fair values of certain financial instruments:investments are prohibited by the Volcker Rule. See discussions in Notes 5 and 16.

Deferred Compensation Plan Assets and Obligations
Invested assets in the deferred compensation plan consist of shares of registered investment companies. These mutual funds are valued under Level 1 at quoted market prices, which represents the NAV of shares held by the plan at the end of the period.
Derivatives
Derivatives are measured according to their classification as either exchange-traded or over-the-counter. Exchange-traded derivatives consist of foreign currency exchange contracts measured under Level 1 because they are traded in active markets. Over-the-counter derivatives, including those for customers, consist of interest rate swaps and options. These derivatives are measured under Level 2 using third-party services. Observable market inputs include yield curves — the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) swap curve and relevant overnight index swap curves — foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, option volatilities, counterparty credit risk, and other related data. Credit valuation adjustments are required to reflect nonperformance risk for both us and the respective counterparty. These adjustments are determined generally by applying a recurring basis. Financial instruments for which carrying values approximate fair value include cash and due from banks, money market investments, demand, savings and money market deposits, federalcredit spread to the total expected exposure of the derivative.
Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased
Securities sold, not yet purchased, included in “Federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowings, and security repurchase agreements. The estimated fair value of demand, savings and money market deposits isborrowings” on the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Carrying value is used because the accounts have no stated maturity and the customer has the ability to withdraw funds immediately. Time and foreign deposits, and any other short-term borrowings,balance sheet, are measured at fair value by discounting future cash flowsunder Level 1 using the LIBOR yield curve to the given maturity dates. Long-term debt isquoted market prices. If not available, quoted prices under Level 2 for similar securities are used.
Loans
Loans are generally measured at fair value based on actual market trades (i.e., an asset value) when available, or discounting cash flows to maturity using the LIBOR yield curve adjusted for credit spreads. The methods used to measure fair value for HTM securities and loans were previously described in this footnote.
These fair value disclosures represent our best estimates based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. Fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions, future expected loss experience,amortized cost, unless they do not share risk characteristics of the various instruments, andwith other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, and cannot be determined with precision. Changes in these methodologies and assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.loans. For those loans, we estimate lifetime expected credit losses on an individual basis. When a loan is individually
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
evaluated for expected credit losses, we estimate a specific reserve for the loan based on either the projected present value of the loan’s future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral. See Note 6 for more information regarding the measurement method for our loans.

Realized gains and losses on AFS securities are determined by using the cost basis of each individual security. Trading securities are carriedmeasured at fair value with gains and losses recognized in current period earnings. The purchase premiums for callable debt securities classified as held-to-maturity HTM or AFS are amortizedby financial instrument on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs:

We recognized net gains of $1 million in 2020 and $3 million in 2019 from the sale of OREO properties that had a carrying value at the time of sale of approximately $6 million in 2020 and $5 million in 2019. Prior to their sale in these years, we recognized an insignificant amount of gross unrealized losses for debt securitiesimpairment on these properties in 2020 and the estimated2019.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment
Ongoing Policy
We review investment securities on a quarterly basis formeasured at the presencelower of OTTI. We assess whether OTTI is present whenamortized cost or the fair value of a debt security is less than its amortizedthe collateral. OREO was measured initially at fair value based on collateral appraisals at the time of transfer and subsequently at the lower of cost basis ator fair value.
Measurement of fair value for collateral-dependent loans and OREO was based on third-party appraisals that utilize one or more valuation techniques (income, market and/or cost approaches). Any adjustments to calculated fair value were made based on recently completed and validated third-party appraisals, third-party appraisal services, automated valuation services, or our informed judgment. Evaluations were made to determine that the appraisal process met the relevant concepts and requirements of applicable accounting guidance.
Automated valuation services may be used primarily for residential properties when values from any of the previous methods were not available within 90 days of the balance sheet date. When we do not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of a security then the decline in fair value is considered to be other-These services use models based on market,

than-temporary. OTTI is considered to haveeconomic, and demographic values. The use of these models has only occurred for debt securities in unrealized loss positions if we have formed a documented intent to sell identified securities or initiated such sales or it is “more likely than not” we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. In these scenarios the impairment loss is equal to the full difference between the amortized cost basisvery few instances and the fair value of the securities. For debt securities in an unrealized loss positionrelated property valuations have not been sufficiently significant to consider disclosure under Level 3 rather than Level 2.
Loans that we have the intent and ability to hold, the expected cash flows to be received from the securities are evaluated to determine if a credit loss exists. In the event of a credit loss, only the amount of the impairment associated with the credit loss is recognized in income. Unrealized losses relating to factors other than credit losses are recorded in OCI.
Our OTTI evaluation process takes into consideration current market conditions; fair value in relationship to cost; extent and nature of change in fair value; severity and duration of the impairment; recent events specific to the issuer or industry; our assessment of the creditworthiness of the issuer, including external credit ratings, changes, recent downgrades, and trends; the cash flow priority position of the instrument that we hold in the case of structured securities; volatility of earnings and trends; current analysts’ evaluations; all available information relevant to the collectability of debt securities; and other key measures. In addition, for AFS securities with fair values below amortized cost, we must determine if we intend to sell the securities or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis. For HTM securities, we must determine we have the ability to hold the securities to maturity. We consider any other relevant factors before concluding our evaluation for the existence of OTTI in our securities portfolio.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment Conclusions
The Bank did not recognize any OTTI on its investment securities portfolio during 2018. Unrealized losses relate to changes in interest rates subsequent to purchase and are not attributable to credit. At December 31, 2018, we did not have an intent to sell identified securities with unrealized losses or initiate such sales, and we believe it is not more likely than not we would be required to sell such securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
To determine the credit component of OTTI for all security types, we utilize projected cash flows. These cash flows are credit adjusted using, among other things, assumptions for default probability and loss severity. Certain other unobservable inputs suchcollateral-dependent were measured as prepayment rate assumptions are also utilized. In addition, certain internal models may be utilized. See Note 3 for further discussion. To determine the credit-related portion of OTTIpreviously discussed in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, we use the security specific effective interest rate when estimating the present value of cash flows.this Note.

Investment securities with a carrying value of approximately $2.6 billion and $2.1 billion at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, were pledged to secure public and trust deposits, advances, and for other purposes as required by law. Securities are also pledged as collateral for security repurchase agreements.
Private Equity Investments
Effect of Volcker Rule
The Bank’s PEIs are subject to the provisionsgenerally measured under Level 3. The majority of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reformthese PEIs are held in our Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”). The Volcker Rule of the Dodd-Frank Act prohibits banks from holding PEIs, except for SBIC funds and certain other permitted exclusions, beyond a required deadline. The Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) announced in December 2016 that it would allow banks to apply for an additional five-year extension beyond the July 21, 2017 deadline to comply with the Dodd-Frank Act requirement for theseare early-stage venture investments. The Bank applied for and was granted an extension for its eligible PEIs. All positions in the remaining portfoliofair value measurements of these investments are reviewed at least on a quarterly basis, including whenever a new round of financing occurs. Certain of these investments may be measured using multiples of operating performance. The fair value measurements of PEIs are subjectreviewed on a quarterly basis by the Securities Valuation Committee. The Equity Investments Committee, consisting of executives familiar with the investments, reviews periodic financial information, including audited financial statements when available.
Certain valuation analytics may be employed that include current and projected financial performance, recent financing activities, economic and market conditions, market comparable companies, market liquidity, sales restrictions, and other factors. A significant change in the expected performance of the individual investment would result in a change in the fair value measurement of the investment. The amount of unfunded commitments to invest is disclosed in Note 16. Certain restrictions apply for the extended deadline or other applicable exclusions.
Of the recorded PEIsredemption of $147 million at December 31, 2018, approximately $3 million remainthese investments and certain investments are prohibited by the Volcker Rule. See discussions in Notes 5 and 16.
Agriculture Loan Servicing
This asset results from our servicing of agriculture loans approved and funded by Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation (“FAMC”). We provide this servicing under an agreement with FAMC for loans they own. The asset’s fair value represents our projection of the present value of future cash flows measured under Level 3 using discounted cash flow methodologies.
Interest-only Strips
Interest-only strips are created as a by-product of the securitization process. When the guaranteed portions of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) 7(a) loans are pooled, interest-only strips may be created in the pooling process. The asset’s fair value represents our projection of the present value of future cash flows measured under Level 3 using discounted cash flow methodologies.
Deferred Compensation Plan Assets and Obligations
Invested assets in the deferred compensation plan consist of shares of registered investment companies. These mutual funds are valued under Level 1 at quoted market prices, which represents the NAV of shares held by the plan at the end of the period.
Derivatives
Derivatives are measured according to their classification as either exchange-traded or over-the-counter. Exchange-traded derivatives consist of foreign currency exchange contracts measured under Level 1 because they are traded in active markets. Over-the-counter derivatives, including those for customers, consist of interest rate swaps and options. These derivatives are measured under Level 2 using third-party services. Observable market inputs include yield curves — the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) swap curve and relevant overnight index swap curves — foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, option volatilities, counterparty credit risk, and other related data. Credit valuation adjustments are required to reflect nonperformance risk for both us and the respective counterparty. These adjustments are determined generally by applying a credit spread to the total expected exposure of the derivative.
Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased
Securities sold, not yet purchased, included in “Federal funds and other short-term borrowings” on the balance sheet, are measured under Level 1 using quoted market prices. If not available, quoted prices under Level 2 for similar securities are used.
Loans
Loans are generally measured at amortized cost, unless they do not share risk characteristics with other loans. For those loans, we estimate lifetime expected credit losses on an individual basis. When a loan is individually
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
evaluated for expected credit losses, we estimate a specific reserve for the loan based on either the projected present value of the loan’s future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral. See Note 6 for more information regarding the measurement method for our loans.
For loans measured at amortized cost, fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the applicable yield curve adjusted by a factor that reflects the credit, interest rate risk, and liquidity inherent in the loan. These future cash flows are then reduced by the estimated life-of-the-loan aggregate credit losses in the loan portfolio (i.e., the allowance for loan and lease losses under the CECL model).

The previous fair values may not be current as of the dates indicated, but rather as of the most recent date the fair value change occurred. Accordingly, carrying values may not equal the current fair value.
We recognized net gains of $1 million in 2020 and $3 million in 2019 from the sale of OREO properties that had a carrying value at the time of sale of approximately $6 million in 2020 and $5 million in 2019. Prior to their sale in these years, we recognized an insignificant amount of impairment on these properties in 2020 and 2019.
PEIs carried at cost were measured at fair value for impairment purposes according to the methodology previously described for these investments. Amounts of PEIs carried at cost were $8 million at December 31, 2020 and at December 31, 2019. Amounts of other noninterest-bearing investments carried at cost were $109 million and $157 million at December 31, 2020, and 2019, respectively, which were comprised of Federal Reserve and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock. PEIs accounted for using the equity method were $61 million and $45 million at December 31, 2020, and 2019, respectively.
Loans that are collateral-dependent were measured at the lower of amortized cost or the fair value of the collateral. OREO was measured initially at fair value based on collateral appraisals at the time of transfer and subsequently at the lower of cost or fair value.
Measurement of fair value for collateral-dependent loans and OREO was based on third-party appraisals that utilize one or more valuation techniques (income, market and/or cost approaches). Any adjustments to calculated fair value were made based on recently completed and validated third-party appraisals, third-party appraisal services, automated valuation services, or our informed judgment. Evaluations were made to determine that the appraisal process met the relevant concepts and requirements of applicable accounting guidance.
Automated valuation services may be used primarily for residential properties when values from any of the previous methods were not available within 90 days of the balance sheet date. These services use models based on market,
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
economic, and demographic values. The use of these models has only occurred in very few instances and the related property valuations have not been sufficiently significant to consider disclosure under Level 3 rather than Level 2.
Loans that are not collateral-dependent were measured as previously discussed in this Note.
Fair Value of Certain Financial Instruments
Following is a summary of the carrying values and estimated fair values of certain financial instruments:

| Loans and leases (including loans held for sale), net of allowance | 52,780 | | | 53,221 | | | 3 | | 48,343 | | | 47,958 | | | 3 |

| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Long-term debt | 1,336 | | | 1,346 | | | 2 | | 1,723 | | | 1,751 | | | 2 |
This summary excludes financial assets and liabilities for which carrying value approximates fair value and financial instruments that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Financial instruments for which carrying values approximate fair value include cash and due from banks, money market investments, demand, savings and money market deposits, federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowings, and security repurchase agreements. The estimated fair value of demand, savings and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Carrying value is used because the accounts have no stated maturity and the customer has the ability to withdraw funds immediately. Time and foreign deposits, and any other short-term borrowings, are measured at fair value by discounting future cash flows using the LIBOR yield curve to the given maturity dates. Long-term debt is measured at fair value based on actual market trades (i.e., an asset value) when available, or discounting cash flows to maturity using the LIBOR yield curve adjusted for credit spreads. The methods used to measure fair value for HTM securities and loans were previously described in this Note.
These fair value disclosures represent our best estimates based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. Fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions, future expected loss experience, risk characteristics of the various instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, and cannot be determined with precision. Changes in these methodologies and assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Security repurchase and reverse repurchase (“resell”) agreements are offset, when applicable, in the balance sheet according to master netting agreements. Security repurchase agreements are included with “Federal funds and other short-term borrowings.” Derivative instruments may be offset under their master netting agreements; however, for accounting purposes, we present these items on a gross basis in our balance sheet. See Note 7 for further information regarding derivative instruments.
5. INVESTMENTS
Investment Securities
Investment securities are classified as HTM, AFS, or trading. HTM securities, which management has the intent and ability to hold until maturity, are carried at amortized cost. AFS securities are carried at fair value and unrealized gains and losses are reported as net increases or decreases to accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). Trading securities are carried at fair value with gains and losses recognized in current period earnings. The carrying values of our securities do not include accrued interest receivables of $54 million and $58 million at December 31,
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
2020, and 2019, respectively. These receivables are presented in the “Consolidated Balance Sheet” within the “Other Assets” line item.
The purchase premiums for callable debt securities classified as HTM or AFS are amortized at an effective yield to the earliest call date. The purchase premiums and discounts for all other HTM and AFS securities are recognized in interest income over the contractual life of the security using the effective yield method. As principal prepayments are received on securities, a proportionate amount of the related premium or discount is recognized in income so that the effective yield on the remaining portion of the security continues unchanged. Note 3 discusses the process to estimate fair value for investment securities.

The following schedule shows the amortized cost and weighted average yields of investment debt securities by contractual maturity of principal payments as of December 31, 2020. Actual principal payments may differ from contractual or expected principal payments because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Impairment
Ongoing Policy
We review investment securities on a quarterly basis for the presence of impairment. For AFS securities, we assess whether impairment is present on an individual security basis when the fair value of a debt security is less than its amortized cost basis at the balance sheet date. When determining if the fair value of an investment is less than the amortized cost basis, we have elected to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost basis of the investment. If we have an intent to sell an identified security, or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, then we recognize an impairment equal to any existing allowance written off against the security.
If we do not have the intent to sell a security, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell a security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, then we determine whether there is any impairment attributable to credit-related factors. We analyze certain factors, primarily internal and external credit ratings, to determine if the decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis has resulted from a credit loss or other factors. If a credit impairment is determined to exist, then we measure the amount of credit loss and recognize an allowance for the credit loss. In measuring the credit loss, we generally compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security to the amortized cost basis of the security. These cash flows are credit adjusted using, among other things, assumptions for default probability and loss severity. Certain other unobservable inputs, such as prepayment rate assumptions, are also utilized. In addition, certain internal models may be utilized. To determine the credit-related portion of impairment, we use the security-specific effective interest rate when estimating the present value of cash flows. If the present value of cash flows is less than the amortized cost basis of the security, then this amount is recorded as an allowance for credit loss, limited to the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis (i.e., the credit impairment cannot result in the security being carried at an amount lower than its fair value). The assumptions used to estimate the expected cash flows depends on the particular asset class, structure and credit rating of the security. Declines in fair value that are not recorded in the allowance are recorded in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes.
AFS Impairment Conclusions
We did not recognize any impairment on our AFS investment securities portfolio during 2020 or 2019. Unrealized losses relate to changes in interest rates subsequent to purchase and are not attributable to credit. At December 31, 2018,2020, we had not initiated any sales of AFS securities nor did we have $30 millionan intent to sell any identified securities with
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
unrealized losses, and we do not believe that this divestiture requirement will ultimately have a material impact on our financial statements. See other discussions relatedit is more likely than not we would be required to PEIssell such securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
HTM Impairment Conclusions
For HTM securities, the ACL is assessed consistent with the approach described in Note 3.6 for loans carried at amortized cost. The ACL on HTM securities was less than $1 million at December 31, 2020. All HTM securities were risk-graded as “pass” in terms of credit quality and none were past due as of December 31, 2020. The amortized cost basis of HTM securities categorized by year of issuance is summarized as follows:

Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”)ACL, which consists of the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments (“RULC”).
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The ALLL, represents our estimate of probable and estimablecurrent expected credit losses inherent inover the contractual term of the loan and lease portfolio and unfunded lending commitments as of the balance sheet date. The ACL for AFS and HTM debt securities is estimated separately from loans. For HTM securities, the ACL is assessed consistent with the approach for loans carried at amortized cost. See Note 5 for further discussion on our assessment of expected credit losses on AFS securities and disclosures related to AFS and HTM securities.
We determine our ACL as the best estimate within a range of estimated current expected losses by using the loan’s amortized cost basis (principal balance, net of unamortized premiums, discounts, and deferred fees and costs). We do not estimate the ACL for accrued interest receivables because we reverse or write-off uncollectible accrued interest receivable balances in a timely manner, generally within one month.
The methodologies we use to estimate the ACL depend upon the type of loan, the age and contractual term of the loan, expected payments (both contractual and assumed prepayments), credit quality indicators, economic forecasts, and the evaluation method (whether individually or collectively evaluated). Expected loan extensions, renewals, or modifications are not considered in the ACL, unless they are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and are not unconditionally cancellable, or we reasonably expect them to result in a TDR.
Losses are charged to the ALLLACL when recognized. Generally, commercial and commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans are charged off or charged down when they are determined to be uncollectible in whole or in part, or when 180 days past due, unless the loan is well securedwell-secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans are either charged off or charged down to net realizable value no later than the month in which they become 180 days past due. Closed-end consumer loans that are not secured by residential real estate are either charged off or charged down to net realizable value no later than the month in which they become 120 days past due.
We establish the amount of the ALLLACL by analyzing the portfolio at least quarterly, and we adjust the provision for loan losses soand unfunded lending commitments to ensure the ALLLACL is at an appropriate level at the balance sheet date.
We determine our ALLL as the best estimate within a range of estimated losses. The methodologies we use to estimate the ALLL depend upon the impairment status and loan portfolio. The methodology for impaired loans is discussed subsequently. For commercial and CRE loans with commitments greater than $1 million, we assign internal risk grades using a comprehensive loan grading system based on financial and statistical models, individual credit analysis, and loan officer experience and judgment. The credit quality indicators discusseddescribed subsequently are based on this grading system. Estimated credit losses for these commercial and CRE loans are derived from a statistical analysis of our historical default and loss given default experience over the period of January 2008 through the most recent full quarter.
Foron all loan segments, including consumer and small commercial and CRE loans with commitments less than or equal to $1 million we primarily use roll rate models to forecast probable inherent losses. Roll rate models measure the rate at which these loans migratethat are evaluated on a collective basis, are derived from one delinquency category to the next worse delinquency category, and eventually to loss. We estimate roll rates for these loans using recent delinquencystatistical analyses of our historical default and loss experience by segmentingsince January 2008.
We estimate current expected credit losses over the contractual remaining life of each loan, which considers historical credit loss experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future. We use the following two types of credit loss estimation models:
•Econometric loss models, which rely on statistical analyses of our historical loss experience dependent upon economic factors and other loan-level characteristics. Statistically relevant economic factors vary depending upon the type of loan, portfolios into separate poolsbut include variables such as unemployment, real estate price indices, energy prices, GDP, etc. The results associated with several economic scenarios are weighted to produce the credit loss estimate from these models.
•Loss models that are based on commonour long-term average historical credit loss experience since 2008, which rely on statistical analyses of our historical loss experience dependent upon loan-level characteristics.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Estimated credit losses during the first 12 months of a loan’s contractual remaining life, or reasonable and supportable period, are derived from the econometric loss models. Over a subsequent 12-month reversion period, we blend the estimated credit losses from the two models on a straight-line basis. For the remaining life of the loan, the estimated credit losses are derived from the long-term average historical credit loss models.
For loans that do not share risk characteristics and separately calculating historical delinquency and loss experiencewith other loans, we estimate lifetime expected credit losses on an individual basis. We consider individually evaluated loans to be nonaccrual loans with a balance greater than $1 million; TDR loans, including TDRs that subsequently default; a loan no longer reported as a TDR; or a loan where we reasonably expect it to become a TDR. When a loan is individually evaluated for each pool. These roll rates are then applied to current delinquency levels toexpected credit losses, we estimate probable inherent losses.a specific reserve for the loan based on either the projected present value of the loan’s future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral.
The current status andprocess of estimating future cash flows also incorporates the same determining factors described subsequently under nonaccrual loans. When we base the specific reserve on the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral, we generally charge off the portion of the balance that is greater than fair value. For these loans, subsequent to the charge-off, if the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral increases according to an updated appraisal, we hold a negative reserve up to the lesser of the amount of the charge-off or the updated fair value.
The methodologies described above generally rely on historical changes inloss information to help determine our quantitative portion of the ACL. However, we also consider other qualitative and environmental factors related to current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that may not beindicate current expected credit losses may differ from the historical information reflected in our quantitative models. Thus, after applying historical loss experience, as described above, we review the quantitatively derived levelquantitative portion of ALLLACL for each segment using qualitative criteria, and we use those criteria to determine
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
our qualitative estimate. We monitor various risk factors that influence our judgment regarding the level of the ALLLACL across the portfolio segments. These factors primarily include:
Changes in lending policies•Actual and procedures, includingexpected changes in underwriting standards and collection, charge-off, and recovery practices;
Changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions;conditions and developments;
Changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio and in the terms of loans;
Changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff;
Changes in the•The volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans;
Changes•Lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and practices for collection, charge-off, and recovery;
•The experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff;
•The nature and volume of the portfolio;
•The quality of the loancredit review system;function;
Changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans;
•The existence, growth, and effect of any concentration of credit, and changes in the level of such concentrations;credit;
•The effect of other external factors such as competition andregulatory, legal, and regulatory requirements;technological environments; fiscal and monetary actions; competition; and events such as natural disasters and pandemics.
The magnitude of the impact of these factors on our qualitative assessment of the ALLLACL changes from quarter to quarter according to changes made by management in its assessment of these factors, the extent these factors are already reflected in historicalquantitative loss rates,estimates, and the extent changes in these factors diverge from one to another. We also consider the uncertainty and imprecision inherent in the estimation process when evaluating the ALLL.ACL.
ReserveOff-balance-sheet Credit Exposures
As previously mentioned, we estimate current expected credit losses for Unfunded Lending Commitments
The RULC represents our estimated reserve for potential losses associated with off-balance sheetoff-balance-sheet loan commitments, including standby letters of credit. Wecredit, that are not unconditionally cancelable. This estimate the RULC usinguses the same procedures and methodologies that we usedescribed previously for loans and is calculated by taking the ALLL. Thedifference between the estimated current expected credit loss factors and qualitative adjustments used in the RULC are the same as the loss factors and qualitative adjustments used in the ALLL. We adjust the Bank’s unfunded lending commitments that are not unconditionally cancelable to an outstanding amount equivalent using credit conversion factors, and we apply the loss factors to the outstanding equivalents.
Changes in the allowance for credit losses are summarized as follows:funded balance, if greater than zero.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans
Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when payment in full of principal and interest is not expected, or the loan is 90 days or more past due as to principal or interest, unless the loan is both well securedwell-secured and in the process of collection. Factors we consider in determining whether a loan is placed on nonaccrual include delinquency status, collateral-value, borrower or guarantor financial statement information, bankruptcy status, and other information which would indicate that the full and timely collection of interest and principal is uncertain.
A nonaccrual loan may be returned to accrual status when all delinquent interest and principal become current in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement; the loan, if secured, is well secured;well-secured; the borrower has paid according to the contractual terms for a minimum of six months; and an analysis of the borrower indicates a reasonable assurance of the ability and willingness to maintain payments.

Credit Quality Indicators
In addition to the nonaccrual and past due and nonaccrual criteria, we also analyze loans using loan risk-grading systems, which vary based on the size and type of credit risk exposure. The internal risk grades assigned to loans follow our definitions of Pass, Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful, which are consistent with published definitions of regulatory risk classifications.
Definitions of Pass, Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful are summarized as follows:
•Pass –— A Pass asset is higher qualityhigher-quality and does not fit any of the other categories described below. The likelihood of loss is considered low.
•Special Mention –— A Special Mention asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Bank’sour credit position at some future date.
•Substandard –— A Substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified have well-defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bankwe may sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.
•Doubtful –— A Doubtful asset has all the weaknesses inherent in a Substandard asset with the added characteristics that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable.
The balance of loans classified as Doubtful as of December 31, 2020 was $4 million. There were 0 loans classified as Doubtful as of December 31, 2019.
We generally assign internal risk grades to commercial and CRE loans with commitments greater than $1 million based on financial and statistical models, individual credit analysis, and loan officer experience and judgment. For these larger loans, we assign one of multiple grades within the Pass classification or one of the following four grades: Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful, and Loss. Loss indicates that the outstanding balance has been charged off. We confirm our internal risk grades quarterly, or as soon as we identify information that affects the credit risk of the loan.
For consumer loans and certain small commercial and CRE loans with commitments less than or equal to $1 million, we generally assign internal risk grades similar to those described previously based on automated rules that depend on refreshed credit scores, payment performance, and other risk indicators. These are generally assigned either a Pass, Special Mention, or Substandard grade, and are reviewed as we identify information that might warrant a grade change.
The amortized cost basis of loans and leases categorized by year of origination and by credit quality classifications as monitored by management are summarized as follows:

Impaired Loans
Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. If a nonaccrual loan has a balance greater than $1 million, or if a loan is a TDR, including TDRs that subsequently default, or if the loan is no longer reported as a TDR, we individually evaluate the loan for
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
impairment and estimate a specific reserve for the loan for all portfolio segments under applicable accounting guidance. Smaller nonaccrual loans are pooled for ALLL estimation purposes.
When a loan is impaired, we estimate a specific reserve for the loan based on the projected present value of the loan’s future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral. The process of estimating future cash flows also incorporates the same determining factors discussed previously under nonaccrual loans. When we base the impairment amount on the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral, we generally charge-off the portion of the balance that is impaired, such that these loans do not have a specific reserve in the ALLL. Payments received on impaired loans that are accruing are recognized in interest income, according to the contractual loan agreement. Payments received on impaired loans that are on nonaccrual are not recognized in interest income, but are applied as a reduction to the principal outstanding. The amount of interest income recognized on a cash basis during the time the loans were impaired within the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was not significant.
Information on impaired loans individually evaluated is summarized as follows, including the average recorded investment and interest income recognized for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Modified and Restructured Loans
Loans may be modified in the normal course of business for competitive reasons or to strengthen the Bank’sour position. Loan modifications and restructurings may also occur when the borrower experiences financial difficulty and needs temporary or permanent relief from the original contractual terms of the loan. Loans that have been modified to accommodate a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulties, and for which the Bank haswe have granted a concession that itwe would not otherwise consider, are considered TDRs.
We consider many factors in determining whether to agree to a loan modification involving concessions, and we seek a solution that will both minimize potential loss to the Bankus and attempt to help the borrower. We evaluate borrowers’ current and forecasted future cash flows, their ability and willingness to make current contractual or proposed modified payments, the value of the underlying collateral (if applicable), the possibility of obtaining additional security or guarantees, and the potential costs related to a repossession or foreclosure and the subsequent sale of the collateral.
TDRs are classified as either accrual or nonaccrual loans. A loan on nonaccrual and restructured as a TDR will remain on nonaccrual status until the borrower has proven the ability to perform under the modified structure for a minimum of six6 months, and there is evidence that such payments can and are likely to continue as agreed. Performance prior to the restructuring, or significant events that coincide with the restructuring, are included in assessing whether the borrower can meet the new terms and may result in the loan being returned to accrual at the time of restructuring or after a shorter performance period. If the borrower’s ability to meet the revised payment schedule is uncertain, the loan remains classified as a nonaccrual loan. A TDR loan that specifies an interest rate that, at the time of the restructuring, is greater than or equal to the rate the Bank iswe are willing to accept for a new loan with comparable risk may not be reported as a TDR or an impaired loan in the calendar years subsequent to the restructuring if it is in compliance with its modified terms.
Consistent with recent accounting and regulatory guidance, loan modifications provided to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties exclusively related to the COVID-19 pandemic, in which we provide certain short-term modifications or payment deferrals, are not classified as TDRs. The TDRs disclosed subsequently do not include these loan modifications. Other loan modifications above and beyond these short-term modifications or payment deferrals were assessed for TDR classification.

Collateral-dependent Loans
As previously mentioned, when a loan is individually evaluated for expected credit losses, we estimate a specific reserve for the loan based on either the projected present value of the loan’s future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral.
Selected information on loans for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the underlying collateral and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, including the type of collateral and the extent to which the collateral secures the loans, is summarized as follows:

Concentrations of Credit Risk
Credit risk is the possibility of loss from the failure of a borrower, guarantor, or another obligor to fully perform under the terms of a credit-related contract. Credit risks (whether on- or off-balance sheet) may occur when individual borrowers, groups of borrowers, or counterparties have similar economic characteristics, including industries, geographies, collateral types, sponsors, etc., and are similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. Credit risk also includes the loss that would be recognized subsequent to the reporting date if counterparties failed to perform as contracted. See Note 7 for a discussion of counterparty risk associated with the Bank’sour derivative transactions.
We perform an ongoing analysis of our loan portfolio to evaluate whether there is any significant exposure to any concentrations of credit risk. Based on this analysis, we believe that the loan portfolio is generally well diversified; however, there are certain significant concentrations in CRE and oiloil- and gas-related lending. Further, we cannot guarantee that we have fully understood or mitigated all risk concentrations or correlated risks. We have adopted and adhere to concentration limits on various types of CRE lending, particularly construction and land development lending, leveraged and enterprise value lending, municipal lending, and oiloil- and gas-related lending. All of these limits are continually monitored and revised as necessary.

Objectives for using derivatives

7. | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
Objectives
The Bank maintainsWe maintain an overall interest rate risk management strategy that actively incorporates the use of interest rate derivatives includingthat include unleveraged interest rate swaps, purchased options, combinations of options, and may include futures and other forward interest rate contracts. The Bank’sOur primary objective for using derivatives is to manage risks, primarily interest rate risk. The Bank usesWe use derivatives to manage volatility in interest income, interest expense, earnings, and capital by adjusting our interest rate sensitivity to minimize the impact of fluctuations in interest rates. Derivatives are used to stabilize forecasted interest receipts from variable-rate assets and to modify the coupon or the duration of fixed-rate financial assets or liabilities as we consider advisable.
We also provide certain borrowers accessuse derivatives as a product for our customers to over-the-countermanage their risks.
Derivatives related to interest rate risk management — When we use derivatives by selling interest rate derivativesas hedges, either for economic or accounting purposes, it is done only to our customers, which we generally offset with interest rate derivatives executed with other dealers or central clearing houses. The Bank also provides commercial clients short-term foreign currency spot trades or forward contracts with a maturity of generally 90 days or less that are also largely offset by foreign currency trades with closely mirroring terms executed with other dealer counterparties or central clearing houses.
manage identified risks. We apply hedge accounting to certain derivatives executed for risk management purposes as subsequently described in more detail. However, we do not apply hedge accounting to all the derivatives involved in our risk management activities. Derivatives not designated as accounting hedges are not speculative and are used to economically manage our exposure to interest rate movements, and other identified risks, including offsetting customer-facing derivatives. These derivatives either do not require the use of hedge accounting for their economic impact to be accurately reflected in our financial statements or they do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements.
Derivatives related to customers — We provide certain borrowers access to over-the-counter interest rate derivatives, which we generally offset with interest rate derivatives executed with other dealers or central clearing houses. Other interest rate derivatives that we provide to customers, or use for our own purposes, include mortgage rate locks and forward sale loan commitments. We also provide commercial clients with short-term foreign currency spot trades or forward contracts with a maturity of, generally, 90 days or less. These trades are also largely offset by foreign currency trades with closely mirroring terms executed with other dealer counterparties or central clearing houses.
Accounting for derivatives
We record all derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value in Other Assets or Other Liabilities regardless of the accounting designation of each derivative. The Bank entersWe enter into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (ISDA)(“ISDA”) master netting agreements, or similar agreements, with substantially all derivative counterparties. See Note 4, “Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” for more information. Where legally enforceable, these master netting agreements give the Bank,us, in the event of default or the triggering of other specified contingent events by the counterparty, the right to use cash or liquidate securities held as collateral and to offset receivables and
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
payables with the same counterparty. For purposes of the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Bank doeswe do not offset derivative assets and liabilities and cash collateral held with the same counterparty where it has a legally enforceable master netting agreement and reports all derivatives on a gross fair value basis. Note 3 discusses the process to estimate fair value for derivatives. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting accounting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of assets, liabilities, or firm commitments attributable to interest rates or other eligible risks, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are not part of designated fair value or cash flow hedging relationships are recorded in current period earnings.
Fair Value Hedges - For derivatives — We generally use interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges to hedge changes in the fair value of fixed-rate assets and liabilities for specific risks (e.g., interest rate risk resulting from changes in a benchmark interest rate). We use both received-fixed, pay-floating and pay-fixed, receive floating interest rate swaps to effectively convert the fixed-rate assets and liabilities to floating-rates. In qualifying fair value hedges, changes in value of the derivative hedging instrument are recognized in current period earnings together with the change in the fairsame line item affected by the hedged item. Similarly, the periodic changes in value of the hedged item, due tofor the risk being hedged. The Bank reports thehedged, are recognized in current period earnings, effectthereby offsetting all, or a significant majority, of the change in the value of the derivative hedging instrument. Interest accruals on both the derivative hedging instrument and the hedged item are recorded in the same Consolidated Income Statement line item, effectively converting the designated fixed-rate assets or liabilities to a floating-rate. Generally, the designated risk being hedged in which the earnings effectall of the hedged item is reported, generally Interest Income or Expense for hedges of interest rate risk of an interest-bearing financial asset or liability. The amounts from the derivative and hedged item for activeour fair value hedges and the location where they are recorded are detailed in the schedules below.
We currently have one active fair value hedging strategy that is a hedge of the change in fair value of LIBORthe London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) benchmark swap rate component of the contractual coupon cash flows of the Bank’s long-termfixed-rate assets or liabilities. The swaps are structured to match the critical terms of the hedged items, maximizing the economic (and accounting) effectiveness of the hedging relationships and resulting in the expectation that the swaps will be highly effective as a hedging instrument. All interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges were highly effective and met all other requirements to remain designated and part of qualifying hedge accounting relationships as of the balance sheet date.
Fair Value Hedges of Liabilities — As of December 31, 2020, we had 1 receive-fixed interest rate swap with an aggregate notional amount of $500 million designated in a qualifying fair value hedge relationship of fixed-rate debt. The objectivereceive-fixed interest rate swap effectively converts the interest on our fixed-rate debt to floating.
At December 31, 2019, we had $1.5 billion of fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges of long-term debt (effectively converting the fixed-rate debt into floating-rate debt). In late March 2020, we terminated $1 billion of swaps (i.e., 2 $500 million swaps with maturities in August 2021 and February 2022). As a result, the cumulative basis adjustment on the debt at the time of the hedge is to manageterminations (which was equal to the fair value of the swaps at the termination date) will be amortized as an adjustment to interest rate risk associated with changes inexpense through the LIBOR benchmarkmaturity of the debt, thereby reducing the effective interest rate for $500rate. During 2020, $3 million of fixed-rate bonds issued in Augustthe outstanding unamortized debt basis adjustment was amortized. We have $12 million of 2018 and subsequently hedged in September 2018. The swap and bonds mature concurrently in August of 2021. Allunamortized debt basis adjustments from previously designed fair value hedges remaining.
Fair Value Hedges of Assets — During the third quarter of 2020, we began hedging certain newly acquired fixed-rate AFS securities using pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swaps, effectively converting the fixed interest income to a floating-rate on the hedged portion of the securities. Subsequently, two of these hedges were slightly restructured to better match the terms of the hedged securities requiring these hedges to be redesignated. Changes in the fair value of the hedged securities prior to the redesignations were recognized in the amortized cost basis of the securities and, similar to the terminated debt hedges noted above, the unamortized basis adjustments will be amortized to interest income through the originally designated maturity of the hedging relationships. Both hedges were designated as hedges of 30-year U.S. Treasury securities and hedged for the full life of the securities. We have $7 million of cumulative unamortized basis adjustments from these previous fair value hedging relationships, which will continue to be amortized as an adjustment to interest income through the end of 2050, thereby increasing the effective interest rate recognized on these securities. As of December 31, 2020, we had qualifying fair value hedging relationships of fixed-rate AFS securities being hedged by pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $383 million.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
hedges were fully amortized prior to 2018. The Bank’s existing fair value interest rate hedge is expected to be perfectly effective because the critical terms of the hedging instrument and hedged item match.

TheRather, as long as the hedging relationship continues to qualify for hedge accounting, the entire change in the fair value of the hedging instrument is deferredrecorded in OCI untiland recognized in earnings as the hedged transaction affects earnings.

We may use interest rate swaps, options, andor a combination of options in our cash flow hedging strategy to eliminate or reduce the variable cash flows associated primarily with interest receipts on floating-rate commercial loans due to changes in any separately identifiable and reliably measurable contractual interest rate index. The Bank
As of December 31, 2020, we had 23receive-fixed interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges in existence during 2018. Of these 23, six of the swaps matured during the 2018 fiscal year. The Bank has 17 interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges as of December 31, 2018. These swaps havewith an aggregate notional amount of approximately $688 million and a weighted average maturity of approximately 1.3 years and a weighted average received-fixed strike rate of approximately 1.59%.

During 2016 we closed our branch in Grand Cayman, Grand Cayman Islands B.W.I. and no longer have foreign operations. No derivatives were designated as hedges of investments in foreign operations during 2018.
Hedge Effectiveness — We assess the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows on the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows on the designated hedged item or transactiontransactions for the risk being hedged. For derivatives not designated asIf a hedging relationship ceases to qualify for hedge accounting, hedges,the relationship is discontinued and future changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are recognized in current period earnings.

Collateral and Credit Risk
Exposure to credit risk arises from the possibility of nonperformance by counterparties. No significant losses on derivative instruments have occurred during 2020 as a result of counterparty nonperformance. Financial institutions whichthat are well-capitalized and well-established are the counterparties for those derivatives entered into for asset-liability management and used to offset derivatives sold to our customers. The Bank reduces itsWe reduce our counterparty exposure for derivative contracts by centrally clearing all eligible derivatives.
For those derivatives that are not centrally cleared, the counterparties are typically financial institutions or customers of the Bank.our customers. For those that are financial institutions, as noted above, we manage our credit exposure through the use of a Credit Support Annex (“CSA”) to an ISDA master agreement with each counterparty. Eligible collateral types are documented by the CSA and controlled under the Bank’sour general credit policies. Collateral balances are typically monitored on a daily basis. A valuation haircut policy reflects the fact that collateral may fall in value between the date the collateral is called and the date of liquidation or enforcement. In practice,As of December 31, 2020, all of the Bank’sour collateral held as credit risk mitigation under a CSA is cash.
We offer interest rate swaps to our customers to assist them in managing their exposure to changing interest rates. Upon issuance, all of these customer swaps are immediately offset through closely matching derivative contracts, such that the Bank minimizes itswe minimize our interest rate risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Most of these customers do not have the capability for centralized clearing. Therefore, we manage the credit risk through loan underwriting whichthat includes a credit risk exposure formula for the swap, the same collateral and guarantee

protection applicable to the loan and credit approvals, limits, and monitoring procedures. Fee income from customer swaps is included in other service charges, commissions and fees. Nevertheless, the related credit risk is considered and measured when and where appropriate. See Notes 6 and 15 for further discussion of our underwriting, collateral requirements, and other procedures used to address credit risk.
Our non-customer facingnoncustomer-facing derivative contracts generally require us to pledge collateral for derivatives that are in a net liability position at a given balance sheet date. Certainposition. A certain number of these derivative contracts contain credit-risk-related contingent features that include the requirement to maintain a minimum debt credit rating. We may be required to pledge additional collateral if a credit-risk-related feature were triggered, such as a downgrade of our credit rating. However, in past situations, not all counterparties have demanded that additional collateral be pledged when provided for under their
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
contracts. At December 31, 2018,2020, the fair value of our noncleared (bilateral) derivative liabilities was $39$418 million, for which we were required to pledge cash collateral of approximately $45$103 million in the normal course of business. If our credit rating were downgraded one notch by either Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s at December 31, 2018,2020, there would likely be no$2 million additional collateral required to be pledged. As a result of the Dodd-Frank Act, all newly eligible derivatives entered into are cleared through a central clearinghouse. Derivatives that are centrally cleared do not have credit-risk-related features that require additional collateral if our credit rating were downgraded.

8. LEASES
On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”), which, among other things, requires the recognition of derivativeROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Upon adoption we elected to use the following optional exemptions that are permitted under Topic 842, which have been applied consistently:
•The optional transition method, and there was reduced by a net credit valuation adjustmentno impact to retained earnings from recognizing the appropriate amount of $3 millionlease assets and $2 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The fair valueliabilities on the balance sheet as of derivative liabilities was reduced by a net debit valuation adjustmentthe adoption date of $1 million at both December 31, 2018 and 2017. These adjustments are required to reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk.standard. Prior period financial statements were not restated.

•The expedient package to not reassess (1) whether any existing or expired contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification for any existing or expired leases, and (3) initial direct costs for any existing leases.

•To not separate lease components from nonlease components for all classes of underlying assets for lessee or lessor transactions.
We determine if a contract is a lease or contains a lease at inception. The right to use leased assets for the lease term are considered ROU assets. Operating lease assets are included in “Other assets” while finance lease assets are included in “Premises, equipment and software, net.” Lease liabilities for operating leases are included in “Other liabilities” while finance leases are included in “Long-term debt” on our consolidated balance sheet.
Lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Because most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The lease ROU asset also incorporates any amortization incurred, including initial direct costs, and excludes lease incentives received. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease, and the lease term incorporates these when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise these options. We enter into certain lease agreements with both lease and nonlease components, which are not separated out for lessees and lessors on a relative standalone basis.
We have operating and finance leases for branches, corporate offices, and data centers. Our equipment leases are not material. At December 31, 2020, we had 422 branches, of which 273 are owned and 149 are leased. We lease our headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah, and other office or data centers are either owned or leased.
We may enter into certain lease arrangements with a term of 12 months or less, and we have elected to exclude these from capitalization. The length of our commitments for leases ranges from 2021 to 2063, some of which include options to extend or terminate the leases.
As of December 31, 2020, assets recorded under operating leases were $213 million, while assets recorded under finance leases were $4 million. We utilized a secured incremental borrowing rate based on the remaining term of the lease as of the effective date for the discount rate to determine our lease ROU assets and liabilities. The following schedule presents lease-related assets and liabilities, their weighted average remaining life, and the weighted average discount rate.

We enter into certain lease agreements where we are the lessor of real estate. Real estate leases are made from bank-owned and subleased property to generate cash flow from the property, including from leasing vacant suites in which we occupy portions of the building. Operating lease income was $12 million for both the years ending 2020 and 2019.
We also have a lending division that makes equipment leases, considered to be sales-type leases or direct financing leases, totaling $320 million and $334 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Federal funds purchased and security repurchase agreements generally mature in less than 30 days. Our participation in security repurchase agreements is on an overnight or term basis (e.g., 30 or 60 days). The Bank executesWe execute overnight repurchase agreements with sweep accounts in conjunction with a master repurchase agreement. When this occurs, securities under the Bank’sour control are pledged and interest is paid on the collected balance of the customers’ accounts. For the non-sweepnonsweep overnight and term repurchase agreements, securities are transferred to the applicable counterparty. The counterparty, in certain instances, is contractually entitled to sell or repledge securities accepted as collateral. Of the total security repurchase agreements at December 31, 2018, $2982020, $392 million were overnight and $229$14 million were term.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES15. REGULATORY MATTERS
We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory – and possibly additional discretionary – actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Required capital levels are also subject to judgmental review by regulators.
In 2013, the FRB, FDIC, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”)OCC published final rules (the “Basel III Capital Rules”capital rules”) establishing a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations that implemented the Basel Committee’sCommittee on Banking Supervision’s (the “Basel Committee”) December 2010 framework, commonly referred to as Basel III, for strengthening international capital standards as well as certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The Basel III capital rules became effective for the Bankus on January 1, 2015 and were subject to phase-in periods for certain of their components. In November 2017, the FRB, FDIC and OCC published a final rule for non-advancednonadvanced approaches banks that extends the regulatory capital treatment applicable during 2017 under the regulatory capital rules for certain items. As a “nonadvanced approaches banking organization,” we made a one-time permanent election to exclude the effects of AOCI items included in capital as allowed under the Basel III capital rules. We met all capital adequacy requirements under the Basel III Capital Rulescapital rules as of December 31, 2018.
Under prior Basel I capital standards, the effects of AOCI items included in capital were excluded for purposes of determining regulatory capital and capital ratios. As a “non-advanced approaches banking organization,” we made a one-time permanent election as of January 1, 2015 to continue to exclude these items, as allowed under the Basel III Capital Rules.2020.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require us to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). “Well-capitalized” levels are also published as a guideline to evaluate capital positions. As of December 31, 2018,2020, all our capital ratios of the Bank exceeded the “well-capitalized” levels under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.
Dividends declared by the Bankus in any calendar year may not, without the approval of the appropriate federal regulators, exceed specified criteria. When determining dividends, the Bank considerswe consider current and historical earning levels, retained earnings, and risk-based and other regulatory capital requirements and limitations.
Bank-run stress tests seek to comprehensively measure all risks to which the institution is exposed, including credit, liquidity, market, operating and other risks, the losses that could result from those risk exposures under adverse scenarios, and the institution’s resulting capital levels. These stress tests have both a qualitative and a quantitative component. The qualitative component evaluates the robustness of the Bank’sour risk identification, stress risk modeling, policies, capital planning, governance processes, and other components of a Capital Adequacy Process. The quantitative process subjects the Bank’sour balance sheet and other risk characteristics to stress testing by using itsour own models.

The Bank is also subject to “capital conservation buffer” regulatory requirements. When fully phased-in,At December 31, 2020, the Basel III capital rules will also require the Bankus to maintain a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress, composed entirely of Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”), on top of the minimum risk-weighted asset ratios, effectively resulting in minimum ratios of (i)(1) CET1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7.0%, (ii)
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
(2) Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.5%, and (iii)(3) Total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 10.5%. Banking institutions with a ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the capital conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall. The implementation of the capital conservation buffer began on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and progressively increases over time, as determined by regulation. The Bank’sOur internal triggers and limits under actual conditions and baseline projections are more restrictive than the capital conservation buffer requirements.
A final rule adopted by the federal banking agencies in February 2019 provides banking organizations with the option to phase in, over a three-year period, the adverse day-one regulatory capital effects of the adoption of CECL. On March 27, 2020, the federal banking agencies issued an interim final rule that gives banking organizations that implement CECL before the end of 2020 the option to reduce for two years a portion of CECL’s adverse effect on regulatory capital. This is in addition to the three-year transition period already in place, resulting in an optional five-year transition. We adopted the provisions of this guidance beginning with the first quarter 2020 financial statements. As a result, we will delay recognizing the December 31, 2020 impact of the ACL on regulatory capital until after a two-year deferral period, which for us extends through December 31, 2021. Beginning on January 1, 2022, we will be required to phase in 25% of the previously deferred estimated capital impact of the ACL, with an additional 25% to be phased in at the beginning of each subsequent year until fully phased in by the first quarter of 2025. At December 31, 2020, the application of these provisions improved our CET1, Tier 1 risk-based and Total risk-based capital ratios by 10 bps each, and our Tier 1 leverage capital ratio by 6 bps. | |

Commitments and Guarantees
We use certain financial instruments, including derivative instruments, in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers, to reduce our own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, and to make a market in U.S. Government,government, agency, corporate, and municipal securities. These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, liquidity, and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the balance sheet. Derivative instruments are discusseddescribed in Notes 7 and 3.

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 generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
require the payment of a fee. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by us upon extension of credit, is based on our initial credit evaluation of the counterparty. Types of collateral vary, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing properties.
While establishing commitments to extend credit creates credit risk, a significant portion of such commitments is expected to expire without being drawn upon. As of December 31, 2018, $6.42020, $7.7 billion of commitments expire in 2019.2021. We use the same credit policies and procedures in making commitments to extend credit and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. These policies and procedures include credit approvals, limits, and monitoring.
We issue standby and commercial letters of credit as conditional commitments generally to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. Standby letters of credit include remaining commitments of $577$398 million expiring in 20192021 and $277$300 million expiring thereafter through 2027.2030. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. We generally hold marketable securities and cash equivalents as collateral when necessary. At December 31, 2018, the Bank2020, we had recorded $5$6 million as a liability for these guarantees, which consisted of $1$4 million attributable to the RULC and $4$2 million of deferred commitment fees.
Certain mortgage loans sold have limited recourse provisions for periods ranging from three months to one year. The amount of losses resulting from the exercise of these provisions has not been significant.
At December 31, 2018, we had unfunded commitments for PEIs of $30 million. These obligations have no stated maturity. PEIs related to these commitments prohibited by the Volcker Rule were $2 million. See the related discussion about these investments in Note 5.
The contractual or notional amount of financial instruments indicates a level of activity associated with a particular financial instrument class and is not a reflection of the actual level of risk. As of December 31, 20182020 and 2017,2019, the regulatory risk-weighted values assigned to all off-balance sheet financial instruments and derivative instruments described herein were $7.6$8.5 billion and $6.8$8.3 billion, respectively.
At December 31, 2018,2020, we were not required to maintain any cash balances of $303 million with the Federal Reserve Bank to meet minimum balance requirements in accordance with FRB regulations.
Leases
We have commitments for leasing premisesContingent Liabilities and equipment under the terms of noncancelable capital and operating leases expiring from 2019 and 2052. Premises leased under capital leases at December 31, 2018, were $1 million, and were essentially amortized with accumulated amortization totaling approximately $1 million. Amortization applicable to premises leased under capital leases is included in depreciation expense.

Legal Matters
We are subject to litigation in court and arbitral proceedings, as well as proceedings, investigations, examinations and other actions brought or considered by governmental and self-regulatory agencies. Litigation may relate to lending, deposit and other customer relationships, vendor and contractual issues, employee matters, intellectual property matters, personal injuries and torts, regulatory and legal compliance, and other matters. While most matters relate to individual claims, we are also subject to putative class action claims and similar broader claims. Proceedings, investigations, examinations and other actions brought or considered by governmental and self-regulatory agencies may relate to our banking, investment advisory, trust, securities, and other products and services; our customers’ involvement in money laundering, fraud, securities violations and other illicit activities or our policies and practices relating to such customer activities; and our compliance with the broad range of banking, securities and other laws and regulations applicable to us. At any given time, we may be in the process of responding to subpoenas, requests for documents, data and testimony relating to such matters and engaging in discussions to resolve the matters.
As of December 31, 2018,2020, we were subject to the following material litigation or governmental inquiries:
•a civil suit, Shou-En Wang v. CB&T, brought against us in the Superior Court for Los Angeles County, Central District in April 2016.

This case was filed on behalf of investors in Rust Rare Coin, Inc., alleging that we aided and abetted a Ponzi scheme fraud perpetrated by Rust Rare Coin, a Zions Bank customer. ThisThe case follows civil actions and the establishment of a receivership for Rust Rare Coin by theThe Commodities Futures Trading Commission and the Utah Division of Securities in November 2018, as well as a separate suit brought by the Securities and Exchange CommissionSEC against Rust Rare Coin and its principal, Gaylen Rust. During the third quarter of 2020, the Court granted our motion to dismiss the plaintiffs' claims in part, dismissing claims relating to fraud and fiduciary duty, but allowing a claim for aiding and abetting conversion to proceed. The case is in the early discovery phase. Trial has not been scheduled.
During the third quarter of 2020, the plaintiffs in three civil class action lawsuits, Fahmia Inc. v Zions Bancorporation, et. al., ImpAcct LLC v. JPMorgan Chase, et. al., and Manoloff v. Bank of America, et. al., voluntarily agreed to dismiss their actions against us. These cases alleged that we wrongly failed to pay agents of borrowers receiving loans from us under the Government's Paycheck Protection Program fees that were allegedly owed to them under the program.
At least quarterly, we review outstanding and new legal matters, utilizing then available information. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, if we determine that a loss from a matter is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, we establish an accrual for the loss. In the absence of such a determination, no accrual is made. Once established, accruals are adjusted to reflect developments relating to the matters.
In our review, we also assess whether we can determine the range of reasonably possible losses for significant matters in which we are unable to determine that the likelihood of a loss is remote. Because of the difficulty of predicting the outcome of legal matters, discusseddescribed subsequently, we are able to meaningfully estimate such a range only for a limited number of matters. Based on information available as of December 31, 2018,2020, we estimated that the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses for those matters to be from $0 millionto roughly $50$35 million in excess of amounts accrued. The matters underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from this estimate. Those matters for which a meaningful estimate is not possible are not included within this estimated range and, therefore, this estimated range does not represent our maximum loss exposure.
Based on our current knowledge, we believe that our current estimated liability for litigation and other legal actions and claims, reflected in our accruals and determined in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, is adequate and that liabilities in excess of the amounts currently accrued, if any, arising from litigation and other legal actions and claims for which an estimate as previously described is possible, will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, in light of the significant uncertainties involved in these matters, and the very large or indeterminate damages sought in some of these matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows for any given reporting period.
ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Any estimate or determination relating to the future resolution of litigation, arbitration, governmental or self-regulatory examinations, investigations or actions or similar matters is inherently uncertain and involves significant judgment. This is particularly true in the early stages of a legal matter, when legal issues and facts have not been well articulated, reviewed, analyzed, and vetted through discovery, preparation for trial or hearings, substantive and productive mediation or settlement discussions, or other actions. It is also particularly true with respect to class action and similar claims involving multiple defendants, matters with complex procedural requirements or substantive issues or novel legal theories, and examinations, investigations and other actions conducted or brought by governmental and self-regulatory agencies, in which the normal adjudicative process is not applicable. Accordingly, we usually are unable to determine whether a favorable or unfavorable outcome is remote, reasonably likely, or probable, or to estimate the amount or range of a probable or reasonably likely loss, until relatively late in the course of a legal matter, sometimes not until a number of years have elapsed. Accordingly, our judgments and estimates relating to claims will change from time to time in light of developments and actual outcomes will differ from our estimates. These differences may be material.
Related Party Transactions
We have no material related party transactions requiring disclosure. In the ordinary course of business, the Bank and its subsidiary bankwe extend credit to related parties, including executive officers, directors, principal shareholders, and their associates and related interests. These related party loans are made in compliance with applicable banking regulations.

16.17. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Adoption of ASC Topic 606, “Revenue“Revenue from Contracts with Customers”Customers”
On January 1, 2018, we adopted the accounting guidance in ASC Topic 606, “Revenue“Revenue from Contracts with Customers”Customers” (“TopicASC 606”) using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts with customers for which the performance obligations were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” Upon adoption, the Bank haswe elected to use the following optional exemptions that are permitted under the TopicASC 606, which have been applied consistently to all contracts within all reporting periods presented:
The Bank recognizes•We recognize the incremental cost of obtaining a contract as an expense, when incurred, if the amortization period of the asset that the Bankwe would have recognized is one year or less.
•For performance obligations satisfied over time, if the Bank haswe have a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Bank’sour performance completed to date, the Bankwe will generally recognize revenue in the amount to which the Bank haswe have a right to invoice.
The Bank does•We do not generally disclose information about itsour remaining performance obligations for those performance obligations that have an original expected duration of one year or less, or where the Bank recognizeswe recognize revenue in the amount to which the Bank haswe have a right to invoice.
The cumulative effect of adopting Topic 606 did not have a material impact to retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of Topic 606 resulted in changes to our accounting policies, business processes, and internal controls to support the recognition, measurement and disclosure requirements under Topic 606.
Revenue Recognition
We derive our revenue primarily from interest income on loans and securities, which was more than three-quarters of our revenue for 2018, and is out of scope of ASC 606.2020. Only noninterest income is considered to be revenue from contracts with customers in scope of ASC 606. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The following is a description of revenue from contracts with customers:
Service chargesCommercial account fees
Commercial account fee income is comprised of account analysis fees, merchant fees, and payroll services income. Revenue is recognized as the services are rendered or upon completion of services.
Card fees
Our card fee income includes interchange income from credit and debit cards, net fees on deposit accountsearned from processing card transactions for merchants, and automated teller machine (“ATM”) services. Card income is recognized as earned. Reward program costs are recorded when the rewards are earned by the customer and presented as a reduction to interchange income.

18. RETIREMENT PLANS
Defined Benefit Plans
Pension – This qualified noncontributory defined benefit plan is frozen to new participation. No service-related benefits have been accrued since July 1, 2013. All participants in the Plan are currently 100% vested in their benefits. Plan assets consist principally of corporate equity securities, mutual fund investments, real estate, and fixed income investments. Plan benefits are paid as a lump-sum cash value or an annuity at retirement age. Contributions to the plan are based on actuarial recommendation and pension regulations. There was no minimum regulatory contribution required in 2018 and 2017. Currently, it is expected that no minimum regulatory contributions will be required in 2019.
—In October 2018, the Bank decidedwe announced our intention to terminate itsour defined benefit pension plan, subject to obtaining necessary regulatory approval. CompletionWe received an IRS letter of this termination is expected in earlydetermination on March 31, 2020. Plan participant benefits will not be disadvantaged becauseparticipants made elections for lump-sum distributions or annuity benefits. Lump-sum distributions were completed in May 2020, and the annuity purchase was completed in June 2020. As a result of this decision.the pension termination, we incurred $28 million of expense, which was recognized in Other noninterest expense.
Supplemental Retirement– — These unfunded, nonqualified plans are for certain current and former employees. Each year, Bankour contributions to these plans are made in amounts sufficient to meet benefit payments to plan participants.
PostretirementPost-retirement Medical/Life– — This unfunded health care and life insurance plan provides postretirementpost-retirement medical benefits to certain former full-time employees who meet minimum age and service requirements. The plan also provides specified life insurance benefits to certain employees. The plan is contributory with retiree contributions adjusted annually, and contains other cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. Plan coverage is provided by self-funding or health maintenance organization options. Our contribution towardstoward the retiree medical premium has been permanently frozen at an amount that does not increase in any future year. Retirees pay the difference between the full premium rates and our capped contribution.
Because our contribution rate is capped, there is no effect on the postretirementpost-retirement plan from assumed increases or decreases in health care cost trends. Each year, Bankour contributions to the plan are made in amounts sufficient to meet the portion of the premiums that are the Bank’sour responsibility.

For the pension plan, the investment strategy is predicated on its investment objectives and the risk and return expectations of asset classes appropriate for the plan. Investment objectives have been established by considering the plan’s liquidity needs and time horizon and the fiduciary standards under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The asset allocation strategy is developed to meet the plan’s long-term needs in a manner designed to control volatility and to reflect risk tolerance. Target investment allocation percentages asAs of December 31, 2018 are 9% in equity, 88% in fixed income and cash, and 3% in real estate assets. During the second quarter of 2018 the asset allocation was changed from primarily equity focused to fixed income focused.

In addition to the investments listed in the previous schedule, as of December 31, 2018,2019, pension plan investments valued using NAV as the practical expedient for fair value consist of $15 million in equity investments, and $116$166 million in debt investments which are in pooled separate accounts, as well as $4 million in limited partnerships. As of December 31, 2017, pension plan investments valued using NAV as the practical expedient for fair value consist of $97 million in equity investments, $31 million in debt investments, and $8 million in real estate investments, which are in pooled separate accounts, as well as $4 million in limited partnerships.
No transfers of assets occurred among Levels 1, 2 or 3 during 2018 or 2017.
The following describes the pension plan investments and the valuation methodologies used to measure their fair value:
Bank common stock – Shares of the Bank’s common stock are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the plan year in the active market where individual securities are traded.
Mutual funds – These funds are valued at quoted market prices which represent the NAVs of shares held by the plan at year-end.
Insurance company pooled separate accounts –accounts. These funds are invested in by more than one investor. They are offered through separate accounts of the trustee’s insurance company and managed by internal and professional advisors. Participation units in these accounts are valued at the NAV as the practical expedient for fair value as determined by the insurance company.
Guaranteed deposit account – This account is a group annuity product issued by the trustee’s insurance company with guaranteed crediting rates established at the beginning of each calendar year. The account balance is stated at fair value as estimated by the trustee. The account is credited with deposits made, plus earnings at guaranteed crediting rates, less withdrawals and administrative expenses. The underlying investments generally include investment-grade public and privately traded debt securities, mortgage loans and, to a lesser extent, real estate and other equity investments. Market value adjustments are applied at the time of redemption if certain withdrawal limits are exceeded.

The Bank’s Benefits Committee evaluates the methodology and factors used, including review of the contract, economic conditions, industry and market developments, and overall credit ratings of the underlying investments.
Limited partnerships – These partnerships invest in limited partnerships, limited liability companies, or similar investment vehicles that consist of PEIs in a wide variety of investment types, including venture and growth capital, real estate, energy and natural resources, and other private investments. The plan’s investments are valued by the limited partnerships at NAV as the practical expedient for fair value. The estimation process takes into account the plan’s proportional interests credited with realized and unrealized earnings from the underlying investments and charged for operating expenses and distributions. Investments are increased by capital calls and are part of an overall capital commitment by the plan of up to approximately $9 million at December 31, 2018.

19. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
We have a share-based compensation incentive plan which allows us to grant stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, and other awards to employees and non-employeenonemployee directors. Total shares authorized under the plan were 9,000,000 at December 31, 2018,2020, of which 4,407,113 2,786,162 were available for future grants.
All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the statement of income based on their grant date values. The value of an equity award is estimated on the grant date using a fair value-based model without regard to service or performance vesting conditions, but does consider post-vesting restrictions.
We classify all share-based awards as equity instruments. Compensation expense is included in salaries and employee benefits in the statement of income, with the corresponding increase included in additional-paid-in-

capital.share-based compensation awards as they occur. Substantially all awards of stock options, restricted stock, and RSUs have graded vesting that is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
Compensation expense and the related tax benefit for all share-based awards were as follows:

During 2017, as a result of our adoption of ASU 2016-09, the tax effects recognized from the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted stock and RSUs was recorded as a $9 million reduction of income tax expense. Income tax was reduced by $8 million during 2018 as a result of applying this new accounting standard. Also, upon the adoption of ASU 2016-09, we elected to account for forfeitures of share-based compensation awards as they occur, rather than estimating forfeitures as was previously done. There was no material impact from the cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings from this change.
Prior to our adoption of ASU 2016-09, the tax effects recognized from the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted stock and RSUs increased common stock by approximately $2 million in 2016. This amount is included in the net activity under employee plans and related tax benefits in the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity.
During both 2018 and 2017, weWe reduced share-based compensation expense by $1 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively, as a result of using a valuation model to estimate a liquidity discount on RSUs with post-vesting restrictions.
As of December 31, 2018,2020, compensation expense not yet recognized for nonvested share-based awards was approximately $25$27 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.
Stock Options
Stock options granted to employees generally vest at the rate of one third each year and expire seven years after the date of grant. For all stock options granted in 2018, 2017,2020, 2019, and 2016,2018, we used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the grant date value of stock options in determining compensation expense. The following summarizes the weighted average value at grant date and the significant assumptions used in applying the Black-Scholes model for options granted:

| | $ | 5.24 |
| Weighted average value for options granted | $ | 8.18 | | | $ | 10.30 | | | $ | 12.64 | |

| Expected life (in years) | 5.0 | | 5.0 | | 5.0 |
The assumptions for expected dividend yield, expected volatility, and expected life reflect management’s judgment and include consideration of historical experience. Expected volatility is based in part on historical volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the option.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock is common stock with certain restrictions that relate to trading and the possibility of forfeiture. Generally, restricted stock vests over four years. Holders of restricted stock have full voting rights and receive dividend equivalents during the vesting period. In addition, holders of restricted stock can make an election to be subject to income tax on the grant date rather than the vesting date.
RSUs represent rights to one share of common stock for each unit and generally vest over four years. Holders of RSUs receive dividend equivalents during the vesting period, but do not have voting rights.
Compensation expense is determined based on the number of restricted shares or RSUs granted and the market price of our common stock at the issue date.
During 2018, 2017,2020, 2019, and 2016,2018, we granted 14,796, 20,711,28,992, 19,116, and 32,31014,796 RSUs, respectively, to non-employeenonemployee directors. The RSUs vested immediately upon grant.

On December 22, 2017, H.R. 1, known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“the Act”), was signed into law. The Act made significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, including a decrease in the current corporate federal income tax rate to 21% from 35%, effective January 1, 2018. In conjunction with the enactment of the Act, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to address the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Act that may not be complete by the time financial statements are issued. The Bank evaluated all available information and made reasonable estimates of the impact of the Act to substantially all components of its net DTA. The provisional impact of the Act on the net DTA resulted in a non-cash charge of $47 million recorded through income tax expense in 2017 related to items such as foregone interest, equity investments in flow-through entities, certain employee compensation arrangements, FDIC-supported transactions and premises and equipment.
During 2018 after filing its 2017 federal and state tax returns, the Bank finalized its analysis of all net DTAs that existed at December 31, 2017 and made a $2 million tax benefit adjustment on net DTAs as a result of the Act. This adjustment offset the provisional amount of $47 million recognized in 2017 to deferred tax expense, resulting in an overall adjustment of $45 million to net DTAs from the Act. The Bank complied with the requirements of SAB 118 as all impacts of the Act were recognized in the financial statements prior to December 22, 2018.
In 2017, the Bank early adopted the guidance in ASU 2018-02, which allows reclassification from AOCI to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects related to the change in the corporate income tax rate from the Act. The early adoption of the guidance resulted in a $25 million increase to retained earnings out of AOCI as of December 31, 2017.
The amount of the net DTAsDTL is included with other liabilities, and the amount of the net DTA is included with other assets in the balance sheet.

2018, excluding the less than $1 million valuation allowance, 2020, the tax effect of remaining net operating loss and tax credit carryforwardscarryforward was $2less than $1 million, expiring through 2030.
We evaluate the DTAs on a regular basis to determine whether an additionala valuation allowance is required. In conducting this evaluation, we have considered all available evidence, both positive and negative, based on the more likely than not criteria that such assets will be realized. This evaluation includes, but is not limited to: (1) available carryback potential to prior tax years; (2) potential future reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities, which historically have a reversal pattern generally consistent with DTAs; (3) potential tax planning strategies; and (4) future projected taxable income. Based on this evaluation, and considering the weight of the positive evidence compared to the negative evidence, we have concluded that an additionala valuation allowance is not required as of December 31, 2018.2020.
We have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain tax positions for tax credits on technology initiatives. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

21. | OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION |
We manage our operations and prepare management reports and other information with a primary focus on geographicalgeographic area. Our banking operations are managed under their own individual brand names, including Zions Bank, Amegy Bank, California Bank & Trust, National Bank of Arizona, Nevada State Bank, Vectra Bank Colorado, and The Commerce Bank of Washington. Performance assessment and resource allocation are based upon this geographicalgeographic structure. The operating segment identified as “Other” includes certain nonbank financial service subsidiaries, centralized back-office functions, and eliminations of transactions between segments.
We allocate the cost of centrally provided services to the business segments based upon estimated or actual usage of those services. We also allocate capital based on the risk-weighted assets held at each business segment. We use an internal funds transfer pricing (“FTP”)FTP allocation systemprocess to report results of operations for business segments. This process is continually refined. In the third quarter of 2019, we made changes to the FTP process to more accurately reflect the cost of funds for loans. Additionally, in the third quarter of 2020, we allocated the net interest income associated with our Treasury department to the affiliates. Historically, this amount was presented in the “Other” segment. Prior period amounts have been revised to reflect the impact of these changes had they been instituted for the periods presented. Total average loans and deposits presented for the banking segments include insignificant intercompany amounts between banking segments and may also include deposits with the Other“Other” segment.

As of December 31, 2018,2020, our banking business is conducted through 7 locally managed and branded segments in distinct geographicalgeographic areas. Zions Bank operates 9795 branches in Utah, 2325 branches in Idaho, and 1 branch in Wyoming. CB&T operates 9085 branches in California. Amegy operates 7576 branches in Texas. NBAZ operates 5856 branches in Arizona. NSB operates 5046 branches in Nevada. Vectra operates 3634 branches in Colorado and 1 branch in New Mexico. TCBW operates 1 branch2 branches in Washington and 1 branch in Oregon.
The operating segment identified as “Other” includes certain nonbank financial service subsidiaries, centralized back-office functions, and eliminations of transactions between segments. The major components of net interest income at the Bank’s back-office include the revenue associated with the investments securities portfolio and the offsetaccounting policies of the FTP costs and benefits provided toindividual operating segments are the business segments. Throughout 2016 consolidation efforts continued, which resultedsame as those of the Bank. Transactions between operating segments are primarily conducted at fair value, resulting in transitioning full-time equivalent employees from the business segments to the Bank’s

back-office units. Due to the continuing nature and timing of this change, the Bank’s back-office units retained more direct expenses in 2016 than in prior years. In the first quarter of 2017 we made changes to the FTP process and internal allocation of central expenses to better reflect the performance of business segments. Prior period amounts have been revised to reflect the impact of these changes had they been instituted in 2016.operations.
The following schedule does not present total assets or income tax expense for each operating segment, but instead presents average loans, average deposits and income before income taxes because these are the metrics that management uses when evaluating performance and making decisions pertaining to the operating segments. The condensed statement of income identifies the components of income and expense which affect the operating amounts presented in the Other“Other” segment.
The accounting policies of the individual operating segments are the same as those of the Bank. Transactions between operating segments are primarily conducted at fair value, resulting in profits that are eliminated for reporting consolidated results of operations.
