BOSTON PRIVATE FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Topic 326,Unaudited Consolidated Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“ASU 2019-11”). This update and related amendments to Topic 326 are intended to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a reasonable and supportable forecast to inform credit loss estimates. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2020 utilizing a modified retrospective approach. On adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company recognized a decrease in the Allowance for loan losses of $20.4 million and an increase in the reserve for unfunded loan commitments of $1.4 million. The net, after-tax impact of the decrease in the Allowance for loan losses and the increase in the reserve for unfunded loan commitments was an increase to Retained earnings of $13.5 million as shown in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity.- (Continued)

(1)See Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 14: Noncontrolling Interests” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 for a description of the redemption values related to the redeemable noncontrolling interests. In accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), an increase in redemption value from period to period reduces income attributable to common shareholders. A decrease in redemption value from period to period increases income attributable to common shareholders, but only to the extent that the cumulative change in redemption value remains a cumulative increase since adoption of this standard in the first quarter of 2009.
(2)The diluted EPS computations for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020 and 2019 do not assume the conversion, exercise, or contingent issuance of the following shares for the following periods because the result would have been anti-dilutive for the periods indicated. This includes shares excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the

3.    Reportable Segments
Management reporting
The Company has 2 reportable segments: (i) Private Banking and (ii) Wealth Management and Trust, as well as Boston Private Financial Holdings, Inc. (the “Holding Company”) within Holding Company and Eliminations. The financial performance of the Company is managed and evaluated according to these 2 segments. Each segment is managed by a segment leader (“Segment Leader”) who has full authority and responsibility for the performance and the allocation of resources within their segment. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”).
The Segment Leader for Private Banking is the CEO of Boston Private Bank, who is also the Company’s CEO. The Bank’s banking operations are reported in the Private Banking segment. The Segment Leader for Wealth Management and Trust is the President of Private Banking, Wealth and Trust. The Segment Leader of Wealth Management and Trust reports to the CEO of the Company. The Segment Leaders have authority with respect to the allocation of capital within their respective segments, management oversight responsibility, performance assessments, and overall authority and accountability within their respective segment. The Company’s CODM communicates with the President of Private Banking, Wealth and Trust regarding profit and loss responsibility, strategic planning, priority setting, and other matters. The Company’s Chief Financial Officer reviews all financial detail with the CODM on a monthly basis.
Description of reportable segments
Private Banking
The Private Banking segment operates primarily in three3 geographic markets: New England, Northern California, and Southern California. The Bank conducts business under the name of Boston Private Bank & Trust Company in all markets. The Bank is chartered by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and is insured by the FDIC. The Bank is principally engaged in providing private banking services to high net worth individuals, privately-owned businesses and partnerships, and nonprofit organizations. In addition, the Bank is an active provider of financing for affordable housing, first-time homebuyers, economic development, social services, community revitalization, and small businesses.
Wealth Management and Trust
The Wealth Management and Trust segment is comprised of the trust operations of the Bank and the operations of Boston Private Wealth. On September 1, 2019, KLS merged into Boston Private Wealth. As a result, the results of KLS are included in the results of Boston Private Wealth within the Wealth Management and Trust segment for all periods presented. The Wealth Management and Trust segment offers planning-based financial strategies, wealth management, family office, financial planning, tax planning, and trust services to individuals, families, institutions, and nonprofit institutions. The Wealth Management and Trust segment operates in New England, New York, Southeast Florida, Northern California, and Southern California.
Changes to segment reporting
With the integration of KLS into Boston Private Wealth in the third quarter of 2019, the Company reorganized the segment reporting structure to align with how the Company's financial performance and strategy is reviewed and managed. The results of KLS are included in the results of Boston Private Wealth within the Wealth Management and Trust segment, and the results of DGHM are included in Holding Company and Eliminations for all periods presented.
Measurement of segment profit and assets
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Part I. Item 1. "Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."

5.    Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined under GAAP as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Financial instruments are considered Level 1 when valuation can be based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 financial instruments are valued using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or models using inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data of substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable and when determination of the fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

(1) The Company has adopted a special trust for the Deferred Compensation Plan called a “rabbi trust.” The rabbi trust is an arrangement that is used to accumulate assets that may be used to fund the Company’s obligation to pay benefits under the Deferred Compensation Plan. To prevent immediate taxation to the executives who participate in the Deferred Compensation Plan, the amounts placed in the rabbi trust must remain subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors. The investments chosen by the participants in the Deferred Compensation Plan are mirrored by the rabbi trust as a way to minimize the earnings volatility of the Deferred Compensation Plan.
As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Available-for-sale securities consisted of U.S. government and agencies securities, government-sponsored entities securities, municipal bonds, and mortgage-backed securities. Available-for-

saleAs of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Investment securities available-for-sale consisted of U.S. government and agencies securities, Government-sponsored entities securities, Municipal bonds, and Mortgage-backed securities. Investment securities available-for-sale Level 2 securities generally have quoted prices but are traded less frequently than exchange-traded securities and can be priced using market data from similar assets and include Government-sponsored entities securities, Municipal bonds, Mortgage-backed securities, “off-the-run” U.S. Treasury securities, and certain investments in the Small Business Administration's (the "SBA") loans (which are categorized as U.S. government and agencies securities). “Off-the-run” U.S. Treasury securities are Treasury bonds and notes issued before the most recently issued bond or note of a particular maturity. When Treasuries move to the secondary over-the-counter market, they become less frequently traded, therefore, they are considered “off-the-run.” NaN investments held as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 or December 31, 20192020 were categorized as Level 3.
As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, Equity securities consisted of Level 1 money market mutual funds that are valued with prices quoted in active markets.
In managing its interest rate and credit risk, the Company may utilize derivative instruments including interest rate customer swaps, interest rate swaps, and risk participation agreements. As a service to its customers, the Company may utilize derivative instruments including customer foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its foreign exchange risk, if any. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities, and therefore, they have been categorized as a Level 2 measurement as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 8: Derivatives and Hedging Activities” for further details.
To comply with the provisions of ASC 820, the Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees. Counterparty exposure is evaluated by netting positions that are subject to master netting agreements, as well as considering the amount of collateral securing the position.
The Company has determined that the majority of inputs used to value its derivatives are within Level 2. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.
Trading securities held in the rabbi trust"rabbi trust" consist of publicly traded mutual fund investments that are valued at prices quoted in active markets. Therefore, they have been categorized as Level 1 as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.
The Company accounts for its investments held in the rabbi trust in accordance with ASC 320, Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. The investments held in the rabbi trust are classified as trading securities. The assets of the rabbi trust are carried at their fair value within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of the securities are recorded as an increase or decrease in Other income each quarter. The deferred compensation liability reflects the market value of the securities selected by the participants and is included within Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of the liability are recorded as an increase or decrease in Salaries and employee benefits expense each quarter.
There were no transfers for assets or liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020. There were 0 Level 3 assets valued on a recurring basis at September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2019.2020. There were no changes in the valuation techniques used for measuring the fair value.

Impaired loans include those loans that were adjusted to the fair value of underlying collateral as required under ASC 310, Receivables. The amount does not include impaired loans that are measured based on expected future cash flows discounted at the respective loan’s original effective interest rate, as that amount is not considered a fair value measurement. The Company uses appraisals, which management may adjust to reflect estimated fair value declines, or may apply other discounts to appraised values for unobservable factors resulting from its knowledge of the property or consideration of broker quotes. The appraisers use a market, income, and/or a cost approach in determining the value of the collateral. Therefore, they have been categorized as a Level 3 measurement.

The estimated fair values have been determined by using available quoted market information or other appropriate valuation methodologies. The aggregate fair value amounts presented above do not represent the underlying value of the financial assets and liabilities of the Company taken as a whole as they do not reflect any premium or discount the Company might recognize if the assets were sold or the liabilities sold, settled, or redeemed. An excess of fair value over book value on financial assets represents a premium, or gain, the Company might recognize if the assets were sold, while an excess of book value over fair value on financial liabilities represents a premium, or gain, the Company might recognize if the liabilities were sold, settled, or redeemed prior to maturity. Conversely, losses would be recognized if assets were sold where the book value exceeded the fair value or liabilities were sold where the fair value exceeded the book value.
The fair value estimates provided are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and the characteristics of the financial instrument. The estimates do not provide for any premiums or discounts that could result from concentrations of ownership of a financial instrument. Because no active market exists for some of the Company’s financial instruments, certain fair value estimates are based on subjective judgments regarding current economic conditions, risk characteristics of the financial instruments, future expected loss experience, prepayment assumptions, and other factors. The resulting estimates involve uncertainties and are considered best estimates. Changes made to any of the underlying assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents
The carrying value reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for Cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of their maturities, and these assets are classified as Level 1 measurements.
Investment securities held-to-maturity
Investment securities Held-to-maturityheld-to-maturity consist of Mortgage-backed securities as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020. The Mortgage-backed securities are fixed income instruments that are not quoted on an exchange but may be traded in active markets. The fair value of these securities is based on quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services. The principal market for our securities portfolio is the secondary institutional market, with an exit price that is predominantly reflective of bid level pricing in that market. Accordingly, Held-to-maturityInvestment securities held-to-maturity Mortgage-backed securities are classified as Level 2.2 measurement.
There were no transfers of the Company's financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.
Loans held for sale
Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate. Fair value estimates are based on actual commitments to sell the loans to investors at an agreed upon price or current market prices if rates have changed since the time the loan closed. Accordingly, loans held for sale are included in the Level 2 fair value category.
Loans, net
Fair value estimates are based on loans with similar financial characteristics. The Company estimates the fair value of loans using the exit price notion under ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which includes identifying an exit price using current market information for origination rates and making certain adjustments to incorporate credit risk, transaction costs and other adjustments utilizing publicly available rates and indexes. Loans, net are included in the Level 3 fair value category based upon the inputs and valuation techniques used.
Other financial assets
Other financial assets consist of accrued interest and fees receivable, and stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (“FHLB”) and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston (“FRB”), for which the carrying amount approximates fair value, and these assets are classified as Level 2 measurements.
Deposits
The fair values reported for transaction accounts (demand, NOW, savings, and money market) equal their respective book values reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and these liabilities are classified as Level 2 measurements. The fair values disclosed are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values for certificates of deposit are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates used are representative of approximate rates currently offered on certificates of deposit with similar remaining maturities, and these liabilities are classified as Level 2 measurements.
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase
The fair values of securitiesSecurities sold under agreements to repurchase are estimated based on contractual cash flows discounted at the Bank’s incremental borrowing rate for FHLB borrowings with similar maturities, and these liabilities have been classified as Level 2 measurements.
Federal funds purchased, if any
The carrying amounts of federalFederal funds purchased, if any, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature, and therefore, these funds have been classified as Level 2 measurements.
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings
The fair values reported for FHLB borrowings are estimated based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate used is based on the Bank’s estimated current incremental borrowing rate for FHLB borrowings ofwith similar maturities, and therefore, these borrowings have been classified as Level 2 measurements.
Junior subordinated debentures
The fair values of the Junior subordinated debentures issued by Boston Private Capital Trust I and Boston Private Capital Trust II are estimated using Level 3 inputs such as the interest rates on these securities, current rates for similar debt, and regulatory changes that would result in an unfavorable change in the regulatory capital treatment of this type of debt.

Other financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities consist of accrued interest payable for which the carrying amount approximates fair value and is classified as Level 2 measurements.
Financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, if any
The Bank’s commitments to originate loans and for unused lines and outstanding letters of credit are primarily at market interest rates, and therefore, the carrying amount approximates fair value.
6.    Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality
The Bank’s lending activities are conducted principally in the regions of New England, Northern California, and Southern California. The Bank originates single and multi-family residential loans, commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, commercial tax-exempt loans, construction and land loans, and home equity and other consumer loans. Most loans are secured by borrowers’ personal or business assets. The ability of the Bank’s single family residential and consumer borrowers to honor their repayment commitments is generally dependent on the level of overall economic conditions within the Bank’s lending areas. Commercial, construction, and land borrowers’ ability to repay is generally dependent upon the health of the economy and real estate values, including the performance of the construction sector. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of the Bank’s loan portfolio is susceptible to changing conditions in the New England, Northern California, and Southern California economies and real estate markets.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company made a change to the loan portfolio segmentation in which Commercial and industrial and Commercial tax-exempt loans were bifurcated given their different underlying risk characteristics. Beginning in the second quarter of 2020, the Company also added a segment for loans originated under the SBA's Paycheck Protection Program (the "PPP"). For the period ended December 31, 2019, there were no PPP loans as the SBA initiated the program in the second quarter of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The following table presents a summary of the loan portfolio based on the portfolio segment as of the dates indicated:

The Bank’s policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest on a loan when the collectability of principal or interest is in doubt. In certain instances, although infrequent, loans that have become 90 days or more past due may remain on accrual status if the value of the collateral securing the loan is sufficient to cover principal and interest and the loan is in the process of collection. There were no loans 90 days or more past due, but still accruing, as of both September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020. The Bank’s policy for returning a loan to accrual status requires the loan to be brought current and for the client to show a history of making timely payments (generally six consecutive months). For troubled debt restructured loans (“TDRs”), a return to accrual status generally requires timely payments for a period of six months in accordance with the restructured loan terms, along with meeting other criteria.

Nonaccrual and delinquent loans are affected by many factors, such as economic and business conditions, interest rates, unemployment levels, and real estate collateral values, among others. In periods of prolonged economic decline, borrowers may become more severely affected over time as liquidity levels decline and the borrower’s ability to continue to make payments deteriorates.
With respect to real estate collateral values, the declines from the peak, as well as the value of the real estate at the time of origination versus the current value, can impact the level of problem loans. For instance, if the loan to value ratio at the time of renewal has increased due to the decline in the real estate value since origination, the loan may no longer meet the Bank’s underwriting standards and may be considered for classification as a problem loan dependent upon a review of risk factors. There could be an increase in these situations as the economic conditions brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic could lead to a decline in collateral values.
Generally, when a collateral dependent loan becomes impaired, an updated appraisal of the collateral, if appropriate, is obtained. If the impaired loan has not been upgraded to a performing status within a reasonable amount of time, the Bank will continue to obtain updated appraisals as deemed necessary, especially during periods of declining property values. The COVID-19 pandemic has limited the Bank’s ability to obtain updated appraisals. In lieu of appraisals, the Bank may use other valuation techniques in the short-term. The Bank did not use any alternative valuation techniques in the third quarter of 2020.
The past due status of a loan is determined in accordance with its contractual repayment terms. All loan types are reported past due when one scheduled payment is due and unpaid for 30 days or more. Loans with modified terms under the CARES Act are not considered past due if they are complying with the modified terms.

Credit quality indicators
The Bank uses a risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of its loan portfolio. Loan classifications are assessments made by the Bank of the status of the loans based on the facts and circumstances known to the Bank, including management’s judgment, at the time of assessment. Some or all of these classifications may change in the future if there are unexpected changes in the financial condition of the borrower, including but not limited to, changes resulting from continuing deterioration in employment levels, general business and economic conditions on a national basis or in the local markets in which the Bank operates adversely affecting, among other things, real estate values. Such conditions, as well as other factors which adversely affect borrowers’ ability to service or repay loans, typically result in changes in loan default and charge-off rates, and increased provisions for loan losses, which would adversely affect the Company’s financial performance and financial condition. These circumstances are not entirely foreseeable and, as a result, it may not be possible to accurately reflect them in the Company’s analysis of credit risk. Generally, only commercial loans, including commercial real estate, other commercial and industrial loans, commercial tax-exempt loans, and construction and land loans, are given a numerical grade.
A summary of the rating system used by the Bank is included here from Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, follows:
Pass - All loans graded as pass are considered acceptable credit quality by the Bank and are grouped for purposes of calculating the allowance for loan losses. For residential, home equity and consumer loans, the Bank classifies loans as pass unless there is known information such as delinquency or client requests for modifications which, due to financial difficulty, would then generally result in a risk rating such as special mention or more severe depending on the factors.
Special mention - Loans rated in this category are defined as having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may, at some future date, result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the credit or the Bank’s credit position. These loans are currently protected but have the potential to deteriorate to a substandard rating. For commercial loans, the borrower’s financial performance may be inconsistent or below forecast, creating the possibility of liquidity problems and shrinking debt service coverage. In loans having this rating, the primary source of repayment is still good, but there is increasing reliance on collateral or guarantor support. Collectability of the loan is not yet in jeopardy. In particular, loans in this category are considered more variable than other categories, since they will typically migrate through categories more quickly.
Substandard - Loans rated in this category are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. A substandard credit has a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Substandard loans may be either still accruing or nonaccruing depending upon the severity of the risk and other factors such as the value of the collateral, if any, and past due status.
Doubtful - Loans rated in this category indicate that collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, is highly questionable and improbable. Loans in this category are usually on nonaccrual and classified as impaired.
These above credit quality indicators are assigned upon origination with commercial loans reassessed on an annual basis while noncommercial loans are reassessed when the loan becomes past due greater than 90 days or when ad-hoc information becomes available to the loan officer. Further, the commercial loan portfolio is subject for selection of an independent review also on an annual basis. In addition, those loans not considered to be "Pass" rated, are subject to a Loan Committee review on a quarterly basis. Lastly, on an ad-hoc basis as new information becomes available to the loan officer on the credit quality of the borrower, the credit quality indicators are reassessed.

(1)Recorded investment represents the client loan balance net of historical charge-offs and historical nonaccrual interest paid, if applicable, which was applied to principal.
When management determines that it is probable that the Bank will not collect all principal and interest on a loan in accordance with the original loan terms, the loan is designated as impaired.
On March 22, 2020, regulators issued an interagency statement encouraging financial institutions to work with borrowers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The interagency statement also provided additional information regarding loan modifications. The regulators indicated they will not criticize institutions for working with borrowers in a safe and sound manner and have indicated that related modifications will not automatically result in a TDR. The regulators also provided supervisory views that loans modified under this program would not be considered past due or nonaccrual.
The regulators view prudent loan modification programs offered to financial institution customers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic as positive and proactive actions that can manage adverse impacts on borrowers, and lead to improved loan performance and reduced credit risk. The statement indicated that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs.
Loans that are designated as impaired require an analysis to determine the amount of impairment, if any. Impairment would be indicated as a result of the carrying value of the loan exceeding either the estimated collateral value, less costs to sell, for collateral dependent loans or the net present value of the projected cash flow, discounted at the loan’s contractual effective interest rate, for loans not considered to be collateral dependent. Generally, shortfalls in the analysis on collateral dependent loans would result in the impairment amount being charged-off to the Allowance for loan losses. Shortfalls on cash flow

dependent loans may be carried as specific allocations to the general reserve unless a known loss is determined to have occurred, in which case, such known loss is charged-off.

BOSTON PRIVATE FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Loans in the held for sale category are carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value in the aggregate and are excluded from the Allowance for loan losses analysis.
As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Bank has pledged $2.3$2.2 billion of loans in a blanket lien agreement with the FHLB. The Bank also has $360.5$320.7 million of loans pledged as collateral at the FRB for access to their discount window. As of December 31, 2019,2020, the Bank had pledged $2.5$2.2 billion of loans to the FHLB and $395.3$332.8 million of loans atto the FRB.
The Bank may, under certain circumstances, restructure loans as a concession to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. These loans are outside of the guidelines to not be considered a TDR by recent regulatory guidance. Such loans are classified as TDRs and are included in impaired loans. TDRs typically result from the Bank’s loss mitigation activities which, among other things, could include rate reductions, payment extensions, and/or principal forgiveness. As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, TDRs totaled $14.5$14.0 million and $12.6$13.9 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2020, $7.8March 31, 2021, $7.1 million of the $14.5$14.0 million in TDRs were on accrual status. As of December 31, 2019, $7.12020, $7.2 million of the $12.6$13.9 million in TDRs were on accrual status.
Since all TDR loans are considered impaired loans, they are individually evaluated for impairment. The resulting impairment, if any, would have an impact on the Allowance for loan losses as a specific reserve or charge-off. If, prior to the classification as a TDR, the loan was not impaired, there would have been a general reserve on the particular loan. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, a general or allocated reserve would have been applied. Many loans initially categorized as TDRs are already on nonaccrual status and are already considered impaired. Therefore, there is generally not a material change to the Allowance for loan losses when a nonaccruing loan is categorized as a TDR.
The following tables present the balance of TDRs that were restructured or defaulted during the periods indicated:

There were no loans that were restructured or defaulted during the three months ended September 30, 2019.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank initiated a mortgage deferment program under which principal and interest payments on qualifying loans are generally deferred for initially three months and the loan term is extended three months; if requested, the loan may be deferred for a subsequent three months. Loans that are deferred under the program are not considered TDRs or past due based on current regulatory guidance. In total, approximately 350365 Residential and Homehome equity loans totaling approximately $220.0 million have been processed under the program. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, approximately 14047 loans totaling approximately $100.0$20.0 million remain in deferral under the program.

Additionally, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank initiated a program where it offered qualified Commercial and industrial borrowers principal payment deferrals for six months, with the deferred principal added to the last payment. In total, approximately 9085 Commercial and industrial loans totaling approximately $125.0 million have been processed under the program. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, approximately 304 loans totaling approximately $50.0$5.7 million remain in deferral under the program.

7.    Allowance for Loan Losses
The Allowance for loan losses is established based upon the Company's current estimate of expected lifetime credit losses on loans measured at amortized cost. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management's assessments confirm that the Company will not collect the full amortized cost basis of a loan. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance when collected.
Under the CECL methodology, which the Company adopted on January 1, 2020, the Company estimates credit losses on a collective basis per segment for loans sharing similar risk characteristics using a quantitative model combined with an assessment of certain qualitative factors designed to address risks not incorporated in the quantitative model output. The quantitative model utilizes a factor-based approacheconomic factors and our selected peer group’s historical default and loss experience to estimate expected credit losses. The expected credit losses usingare the product of multiplying the Company’s estimates of probability of default, andnet loss given default, which are derived from a selected peer group's historicaland individual loan level exposure at default and loss experience.on an undiscounted basis. The model estimates expected credit losses using loan level data over the contractual life of the exposure, considering the effect of estimated prepaymentsprepayment and curtailmentscurtailment rates which are derived from the Company's recent historical experience on the remaining portfolio segment balance over the life of the portfolio. Reasonable and supportable economic forecasts are incorporated into the estimate over a reasonable and supportable forecast period, beyond which is a reversion to the historical long-run average of the macroeconomic variables. Management has determined a reasonable and supportable period of two years and a straight line reversion period of twelve months to be appropriate for purposes of estimating expected credit losses. Management also applies a weight to the various forecasts chosen to determine the reasonable and supportable economic forecasts. The Company's qualitative assessment is based on factors outlined in regulatory guidance and includeincludes the following:following factors:
• Volume and trend of past-due, nonaccrual, and adversely-graded loans
• Trends in volume and terms of loans
• Concentration risk
• Experience and depth of management
• Risk surrounding lending policy and underwriting standards
• Risk surrounding loan review
• Banking industry conditions, other external factors, and inherent model risk
Loans that no longer share similar risk characteristics with any pools of assets are subject to individual assessment and are removed from the collectively assessed pools to avoid double counting. For the loans that will be individually assessed, the Company will use either a discounted cash flow approach or a fair value of collateral approach. The latter approach will be used for loans deemed to be collateral dependent or when foreclosure is probable.
Loan losses are charged against the Allowance for loan losses when management's assessments confirm that the Company will not collect the full amortized cost basis of a loan. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the Allowance for loan losses when collected.
Accrued interest receivable amounts are excluded from balances of loans held at amortized cost and are included within Accrued interest receivable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Management has elected not to measure an allowance

for credit losses on these amounts as the Company employs a timely write-off policy as generally any loan over 89 days past-due is put on non-accrual status and any associated accrued interest is reversed.
For periods disclosed prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2020, the Allowance for loan losses was determined under the incurred loss model. Refer to "Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Account Policies" in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for a description of the methodology.
The Allowance for loan losses, which is reported as a reduction of outstanding loan balances, totaled $84.6$74.0 million and $72.0$81.2 million as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company made a change to the loan portfolio segmentation as it relates to the Allowance for loan losses in which Commercial and industrial and Commercial tax-exempt loans were bifurcated given their different underlying risk characteristics. For the periods ended September 30, 2019, the Provision/(credit) for loan losses and related allowance balance in the Allowance for loan losses for tax-exempt Commercial and industrial loans is included with Commercial and industrial loans. Beginning in the second quarter of 2020, the Company made a change to the loan portfolio segmentation as it relates to the Allowance for loan losses, adding the segment Paycheck Protection Program.Program ("PPP"). For the periodsperiod ended September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there were no loans in this segment as the SBA initiated the program in the second quarter of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The decrease in the Allowance for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was primarily driven by the latest current reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, which indicated a modest improvementimproving economic conditions from the prior quarter, as well as the net impact of the change in the composition and volume of the loan portfolio. These improvements were partially offset by the net impact in the changes of the qualitative factors, and a change in the weighting of the forecast scenarios used to account for risks and assumptions not incorporated in the forecasts, including consideration forforecasts. These improvements were partially offset by the significant uncertainty related to the duration and severitynet impact of economic impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in Allowance for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by the change in allowance methodology from the incurred loss model to the current expected credit loss model, as well as the current reasonablecomposition and supportable economic forecast deterioration as a resultvolume of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the net change in qualitative factors to account for risks and assumptions related to our loan portfolio not incorporated in the forecasts.portfolio.

Upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company recognized a decrease in the Allowance for loan losses of $20.4 million. The adoption amount was driven primarily by the portfolio composition, the short-term nature of many commercial loans, estimated prepayments and curtailments, a change to the loan portfolio segmentation in which Commercial and industrial and Commercial tax-exempt loans were bifurcated given the different underlying risk characteristics, and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts at the time of adoption.

The Allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the inherent risk of loss in the loan portfolio as of the consolidated balance sheet dates. Management estimates the level of the allowanceAllowance for loan losses based on all relevant information available. Changes to the required level in the allowanceAllowance for loan losses result in either a provisionProvision for loan loss expense, if an increase is required, or a credit to the provision, if a decrease is required.

8.    Derivatives and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and, to a lesser extent, the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are generally determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to certain loans, deposits, and borrowings. As a service to its customers, the Company may utilize derivative instruments including customer foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its foreign exchange risk, if any.
The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019:2020:

The Bank has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain provisions where, if the Bank defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Bank could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. The Bank was in compliance with these provisions as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.
The Bank also has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain provisions where, if the Bank fails to maintain its status as a well- or adequately-capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Bank would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements. The Bank was in compliance with these provisions as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.
Certain of the Bank’s agreements with its derivative counterparties contain provisions where, if specified, events or conditions occur that materially change the Bank’s creditworthiness in an adverse manner, the Bank may be required to fully collateralize its obligations under the derivative instruments. The Bank was in compliance with these provisions as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.
As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the termination amounts related to collateral determinations of derivatives in a liability position were $94.1$51.7 million and $35.7$85.6 million, respectively. The Bank has minimum collateral posting thresholds with its derivative counterparties. As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the Bank had pledged securities with a market value of $90.5$54.3 million and $40.0$86.7 million, respectively, against its obligations under these agreements. The collateral posted is typically greater than the current liability position; however, due to timing of liability position changes at period end, the funding of a collateral shortfall may take place shortly following period end.
Cash flow hedges of interest rate risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest income and expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements.
To accomplish this objective and strategy, the Bank has entered into one interest rate swap during 2020 with an effective date of April 14, 2020. The interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge and involves the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Bank making fixed payments.
The one interest rate swap entered into during 2020 has a notional amount of $100 million and a term of eighteen months from its respective effective date. The interest rate swap will effectively fix the Bank's interest payments on $100 million of rolling three monththree-month FHLB advances at a rate of 0.48%.
Per ASU 2017-12, for derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For active cash flow hedges, a portion of the balance reported in Accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made or received on the Bank’s interest rate swaps.
Non-designated hedges
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from different services the Bank provides to qualified commercial clients. The Bank offers certain derivative products directly to such clients. The Bank economically hedges derivative transactions executed with commercial clients by entering into mirror-image, offsetting derivatives with third parties. Derivative transactions executed as part of these programs are not designated in ASC 815-qualifying hedging

relationships and are, therefore, marked-to-market through earnings each period. Because the derivatives have mirror-image contractual terms, the changes in fair value substantially offset through earnings. The net effect on earnings is primarily driven by changes in the credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”). The CVA represents the dollar amount of fair value adjustment related to nonperformance risk of both the Bank and its counterparties. Fees earned in connection with the execution of derivatives related to this program are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in Other income. The Bank has interest rate swaps and caps related to this program with an aggregate notional amount of $1.7 billion as of September 30, 2020 and $1.6 billion as of DecemberMarch 31, 2019. As of September 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 0 foreign currency exchange contracts related to this program.
In addition, as a participant lender, the Bank has guaranteed performance on the pro-rated portion of swaps executed by other financial institutions. As the participant lender, the Bank is providing a partial guarantee, but is not a direct party to the related swap transactions. The Bank has no obligations under the risk participation agreements unless the borrower defaults on their swap transaction with the lead bank and the swap is in a liability position to the borrower. In that instance, the Bank has agreed to pay the lead bank a portion of the swap’s termination value at the time of the default. The derivative transactions entered into as part of these agreements are not designated, as per ASC 815, as qualifying hedging relationships and are, therefore, marked-to-market through earnings each period. As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, there were 7 of these risk participation transactions with an aggregate notional amount of $57.7$57.0 million and $58.8$57.4 million, respectively.

BOSTON PRIVATE FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued)
The Bank has also participated out to other financial institutions a pro-rated portion of swaps executed by the Bank. The other financial institution has no obligations under the risk participation agreements unless the borrowers default on their swap transactions with the Bank and the swaps are in liability positions to the borrower. In those instances, the other financial institution has agreed to pay the Bank a portion of the swap’s termination value at the time of the default. The derivative transactions entered into as part of these agreements are not designated, as per ASC 815, as qualifying hedging relationships and are, therefore, marked-to-market through earnings each period. As of September 30,March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 5 of these risk participation transactions with an aggregate notional amount of $30.3 million. As of December 31, 2019, there were 4 of these risk participation transactions with an aggregate notional amount of $20.5$30.2 million.

The effective tax rate is more than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to Merger costs related to the proposed merger with SVB, state and local income taxes, and the accounting for investments in affordable housing projects. These items were partially offset by earnings from tax-exempt investments and income tax credits. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a tax expense of approximately $3.0 million due to certain Merger costs related to the proposed merger with SVB that are expected to be non-deductible.
The effective tax for the three months ended March 31, 2020 of 11.2%, with related tax expense of $0.1 million, was calculated based on a forecasted 2020 annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was less than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to earnings from tax-exempt investments and income tax credits. These savings werecredits, partially offset by state and local income taxes, the accounting for investments in affordable housing projects, and tax expense from employee shared-based payments.
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of 21.1%, with related tax expense of $15.8 million, was calculated based on a forecasted 2019 annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was more than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to state and local income taxes and the accounting for investments in affordable housing projects. These expenses were partially offset by earnings from tax-exempt investments and income tax credits.

10.    Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests consist of equity owned by management of the Company’s majority-owned affiliate, DGHM. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, if any, represents the net income allocated to the noncontrolling interest owners of DGHM. Net income allocated to the noncontrolling interest owners was 0 and $96$6 thousand for the three-month periodsthree months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively, and $6 thousand and $265 thousand for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
On the Consolidated Balance Sheets, noncontrolling interests are included as the sum of the capital and undistributed profits allocated to the noncontrolling interest owners.

13.    Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), the Company recognizes revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments such as loans and securities. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated from contracts with customers. Noninterest income considered in-scope of ASC 606 is discussed below.
Wealth management and trust fees
Wealth management and trust fees are earned for providing wealth management, retirement plan advisory, family office, financial planning, trust services, and other financial advisory services to clients. The Company’s performance obligation under these contracts is satisfied over time as the services are provided. Fees are recognized monthly based on the average monthly, beginning-of-quarter, or, for a small number of clients, end-of-quarter market value of the AUM and the applicable fee rate, depending on the terms of the contracts. Fees are also recognized monthly based either on a fixed fee amount or are based on the quarter-end (in arrears) market value of the AUM and the applicable fee rate, depending on the terms of the contracts. No performance basedperformance-based incentives are earned under wealth management contracts. Receivables are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in the Fees receivable line item. Deferred revenues of $6.0$6.3 million and $6.5$6.1 million as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets within Other liabilities.
Trust fees are earned when the Company is appointed as trustee for clients. As trustee, the Company administers the client’s trust and manages the assets of the trust, including investments and property. The Company’s performance obligation under these agreements is satisfied over time as the administration and management services are provided. Fees are recognized monthly or, in certain circumstances, quarterly based on a percentage of the market value of the account as outlined in the agreement. Payment frequency is defined in the individual contracts, which primarily stipulate monthly in arrears. No performance basedperformance-based incentives are earned on trust fee contracts. Receivables are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets within Fees receivable.
Investment management fees
Investment management fees are earned for the management of a series of accounts and funds in which clients invest directly, acting as a sub-advisor to larger investment management companies, or private client account management. The Company’s performance obligation is satisfied over time, and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon either the beginning-of-quarter (in advance) or quarter-end (in arrears) market value of the AUM and the applicable fee rate, depending on the terms of the contracts. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. The Company may earn performance-based incentives on certain contracts. Receivables are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets within Fees receivable.

Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 15: Recent Accounting Pronouncements” for additional information on the Company's adoption of this standard.Operations.
The Company, as lessee, has 36 real estate leases for office and ATM locations classified as operating leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception. The terms of the real estate leases generally have annual increases in payments based off of a fixed or variable rate, such as the Consumer Price Index rate, that is outlined within the respective contracts. Generally, the initial terms of the leases for our leased properties range from five to fifteen years. Most of the leases also include options to renew for periods of five to ten years at contractually agreed upon rates or at market rates at the time of the extension. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates whether the renewal of each lease is reasonably certain. If the lease doesn’t provide the implicit interest rate, the Bank uses its incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of lease payments. No other significant judgments or assumptions were made in applying the requirements of ASU 2016-02.
The Company, recognized $2.0 million of lease liabilities and ROU assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets related to equipment leases on September 30, 2020. The Company, as lessee, has 2127 equipment leases classified as operating leases.

15.    Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). This update and the related amendments to Topic 842 require lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases (“ASU 2018-10”); ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements (“ASU 2018-11”); and ASU No. 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842), Codification Improvements (“ASU 2019-01”). The standard establishes an ROU model that requires a lessee to recognize an ROU asset and lease liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and method of expense recognition in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company adopted these provisions on January 1, 2019. The most significant effects relate to the recognition of new ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for real estate operating leases and providing significant disclosures about leasing activities. Additionally, the Company elected the package of practical expedients, as prescribed by ASU 2016-02. On adoption, the Company recognized $124.1 million of lease liabilities and $108.5 million of ROU assets. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 14: Lease Accounting” for further details.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”). In 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments (“ASU 2019-04”); ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief (“ASU 2019-05”); ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 942)—Effective Dates (“ASU 2019-10”); and ASU

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued)
2019-11, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“ASU 2019-11”). This update and related amendments to Topic 326 are intended to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a CECL model methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a reasonable and supportable economic forecast to inform credit loss estimates. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2020 utilizing a modified retrospective approach. On adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company recognized a decrease in the allowance for loan losses of $20.4 million and an increase in the reserve for unfunded loan commitments of $1.4 million. The net, after-tax impact of the decrease in the allowance for loan losses and the increase in the reserve for unfunded loan commitments was an increase to Retained earnings of $13.5 million as shown in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 4: Investments”, “Note 6 - Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality”, and “Note 7 - Allowance for Loan Losses” for further details.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans (“ASU 2018-14”). The amendments in ASU 2018-14 remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. This update is effective on a retrospective basis for interim and annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2021. The Company is assessing the potential impact for this update and how it applies to the Company’s disclosures surrounding its two non-qualified supplemental executive retirement plans and a long-term incentive plan.

The Company recognized Diluted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders of $0.28$0.13 and $0.24$0.01 for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, and September 30, 2019, respectively. Key items that affected the Company’s results in the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 compared to the same period of 20192020 include:
ProvisionThe provision for loan losses decreased $4.7 million towas a credit of $4.6$7.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, compared to an expense of $17.0 million for the same period of 2019.2020. During the thirdfirst quarter of 2020,2021, the Company recognized a total provision credit of $2.8$9.0 million, which included a provisionProvision credit for loan losses of $4.6$7.0 million, and separately, a reserve credit of $1.8$2.0 million for unfunded loan commitments, recognized as Other expense within NoninterestOperating expense.
The decrease in the Allowance for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was primarily driven by the latest current reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, which indicated a modest improvementimproving economic conditions from the prior quarter, as well as the net impact of the change in the composition and volume of the loan portfolio. These improvements were partially offset by the net impact in the changes of the qualitative factors, and a change in the weighting of the forecast scenarios used to account for risks and assumptions not incorporated in the forecasts, including consideration forforecasts. These improvements were partially offset by the significant uncertainty related tonet impact of the durationchange in the composition and severityvolume of economic impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.loan portfolio.
Total revenue decreased $0.4increased $6.9 million to $80.9$85.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, compared to the same period of 20192020 as described below.
Total fees and other income decreased $2.1increased $4.6 million, or 8%22%, to $23.0$26.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, compared to the same period of 2019.2020. The decreaseincrease was primarily driven by lowerhigher Other banking fee income as a result of lower bank-owned life insurance revenue and lower swap fee income, as well as lower Investment management fees duea gain related to the revaluation of a receivable from the divestiture of former affiliate Bingham, Osborn & Scarborough, LLC ("BOS"), the impact of recent outflowsmark-to-market on derivatives and deferred compensation securities, and higher gain on sale of AUM at DGHM.secondary loans. Total fees and other income represents 28%31% of Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, compared to 31%27% of Total revenue for the same period of 2019.2020.
Net interest income increased $1.7$2.2 million, or 3%4%, to $57.8$59.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, compared to the same period of 2019.2020. The increase in Net interest income was primarily driven by the addition of PPP-related income related to the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") and lower funding costs, partially offset by lower interest on interest-earning assets. Net interest margin (“NIM”) was 2.61%2.45% for the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, a decrease of 1131 basis points compared to the same period in 2019.2020. Although Net interest income increased, the decrease in NIM was primarily driven by excess cash balances held at lower yields in the third quarter of 2020 and lower-yielding PPP loans.yields.

Total operating expense increased $5.4$15.0 million, or 10%25%, to $60.9$75.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, compared to the same period of 2019.2020. The increase was primarily driven by costs related to the proposed merger with SVB Financial Group ("SVB"), increases in Salaries and employee benefits expense due to increases in variable compensation, and Information systems expense as a result of new IT initiatives being placed in service, and the reserve for unfunded loan commitments within Other expense, partially offset by a decrease in Marketing and business development expense.lower Other expense driven by the off-balance sheet provision credit.
For the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, total loans decreased $110.4increased $112.0 million, or 2%, while total deposits increased $400.3$552.3 million, or 5%6%, from the second quarter ofDecember 31, 2020. The decreaseincrease in loans was primarily driven by the sale of $72.0 million of residential mortgagehigher Commercial and industrial loans, in the third quarter of 2020,as well as higher PPP loans, while the increase in deposits was primarily driven by new and existing clients maintaining additional cash liquidity. The Company’s loan-to-deposit ratio decreased from 99%83% as of June 30,December 31, 2020 to 92%79% as of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, driven by strong deposit inflows. Deposits are the Company’s primary source of funds to originate loans. When the Company’s loan-to-deposit ratio exceeds 100%, the Company relies on other funding sources, such as FHLB borrowings or federal funds, to fund loan growth. If the Company is unable to grow deposits in line with loan growth, it may evaluate other options such as slowing loan growth, selling a portion of portfolio loans, or originating mortgage loans as held-for-sale. Additionally if the Company has excess deposits, the Company may seek to to earn a better yield by investing excess cash in loan growth, purchasing investment securities or other cash management strategies.
Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $6.1 million, compared to $0.1 million for the same period in 2020. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was 36.3%, compared to an effective tax rate of 11.2% for the same period of 2020. The effective tax rate is more than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to Merger costs related to the proposed merger with SVB, state and local income taxes, and the accounting for investments in affordable housing projects. These items were partially offset by earnings from tax-exempt investments and income tax credits. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a tax expense of approximately $3.0 million due to certain Merger costs related to the proposed merger with SVB that are expected to be non-deductible.
The Company’s Private Banking segment reported Net income attributable to the Company of $19.3$21.8 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020,2021, compared to $17.9$0.6 million for the same period of 2019.2020.

Announced Merger
On January 4, 2021, the Company announced that it entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with SVB, pursuant to which SVB will acquire the Company. On May 4, 2021, the shareholders of the Company approved the Merger Agreement. The transaction is expected to close mid-2021, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals.
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and continues to cause, substantial disruptions to the global economy and to the customers and communities that we serve. In response to the pandemic, the Company implemented business continuity contingency plans, including company-wide remote working arrangements. We are also focused on supporting our clients who may be experiencing a financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including by participating in the Small Business Administration’s (the “SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”)PPP and offering loan deferrals and forbearance as needed, including our mortgage deferment program and Commercial and industrial loan deferment program, and creating the Commercial real estate second loan program. We will continue to evaluate this fluid situation and take additional actions as necessary.     
Participation in the PPP
The CARESCoronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") initially appropriated $349 billion for “paycheck protection loans” through the PPP. The amount appropriated was subsequently increased to $659 billion. The CARES Act provided funding to the SBA for use for the PPP. Under the terms of the PPP, certain businesses can apply for loans through qualified financial institutions, such as the Bank, based on eligibility criteria. The PPP provides loans to eligible businesses with an initial term of up to five years at an interest rate of 1.0%. Loans issued under the PPP will be forgiven if the borrower uses at least 60% of the proceeds on payroll costs and other eligible costs such as utilities or rent for a period of up to
43


24 weeks, following the loan funding date. This was changed from 75% and 8 weeks by the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act signed into law on June 5, 2020. The SBA has issued an interim final rule in which it has provided that a lender may rely on certifications made by a borrower to determine the borrower’s eligibility for a PPP loan and use of loan proceeds, subject to a good faith review, and to determine the qualifying loan amount and eligibility for loan forgiveness. Additionally, on December 27, 2020, the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act (the "Economic Aid Act") was enacted which, among other items, provides for a second round of PPP loans.
Loans issued by participating financial institutions are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. Banks will receive a processing fee from the SBA from 1.0% to 5.0% based on the size of the loan. Loans up to $350 thousand will have a 5.0% fee, loans between $350 thousand and $2.0 million will have a 3.0% fee, and loans greater than $2.0 million will have a 1.0% fee.
47


In conjunction with the PPP, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) has created a lending facility for qualified financial institutions. The Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (the “PPPLF”) will extend credit to depository institutions with a term of up to five years at an interest rate of 0.35%. Only loans issued under the PPP can be pledged as collateral to access the facility. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Bank has not participated in the PPPLF.
As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Bank processed 1,0451,594 loans totaling $380.3$511.1 million under the PPP program, primarily in the second quarter of 2020.2020 and the first quarter of 2021. The Bank has received $10.9$15.5 million in processing fees from the SBA, which is netted against the principal balance on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be accreted through net interest income on a straight-line basis over the life of the loan. If a loan is forgiven or otherwise paid off, the remainder of the processing fee will be accreted through net interest income. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the balance of PPP loans was $371.5$351.2 million, and $2.2$8.2 million was accreted through net interest income. On May 5, 2021, the SBA stopped accepting PPP loan applications from most lenders, including the Company, because PPP funding has been exhausted.
Mortgage deferment program    
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank initiated a mortgage deferment program under which principal and interest payments on qualifying loans are generally deferred for initially three months and the loan term is extended three months; if requested, the loan may be deferred for a subsequent three months. Loans that are deferred under the program are not considered TDRs or past due based on current regulatory guidance. In total, approximately 350365 residential and home equity loans totaling approximately $220.0 million have been processed under the program. As of September 30, 2020, deferrals forMarch 31, 2021, approximately 20047 loans totaling approximately $120.0 million have expired with the loans returning to payment, while approximately 140 loans totaling approximately $100.0$20.0 million remain in deferral under the program. Approximately 1013 loans totaling less than $1.0$1.5 million are delinquent on payment terms as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 after the deferral expired, primarily First Time Home Buyer loans.loans as defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, while the remainder have expired with the loans returning to payment.
Commercial and industrial loan deferment program    
InAlso in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank initiated a program offering qualified Commercial and industrial borrowers principal payment deferral for six months, with the deferred principal added to the last payment. In total, approximately 9085 Commercial and industrial loans totaling approximately $125.0 million have been processed under the program. As of September 30, 2020, deferrals forMarch 31, 2021, approximately 60four loans totaling approximately $75.0$5.7 million remain in deferral under the program, while the remainder have expired with the loans returning to payment, while approximately 30 loans totaling approximately $50.0 million remain in deferral under the program.payment. Of the loans that came off deferral, no loans are delinquent on payment terms as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.
Commercial real estate second loan program
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank also initiated a program to offer qualifying Commercial real estate borrowers a second mortgage to cover up to one year of principal and interest payments. In order to qualify for the loan, the total exposure after receiving the second mortgage for each borrower could not exceed a 75% loan-to-value ratio, and the loans were required to be current at the time of application, amongst other conditions. In total, borrowers with approximately 240 existing loans totaling $1.3 billion requested and were approved for these second mortgages, representing approximately 50% of the Commercial real estate loan balance. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the borrowers associated with the $1.3 billion of existing loans received approximately $80.0$69.9 million in additional funding under this program. The Company does not anticipate a material increase in the $80.0$69.9 million balance of new loans in the future, and the principal balance will amortize down over the life of the loan, generally five years. The 12 month coverage period for debt service reserve balances will elapse in the second quarter of 2021.
In addition to, and outside of the Commercial real estate second loan program, the Bank offered qualified Commercial real estate borrowers principal payment deferral for up to twelve months, with the deferred principal added to the balance due at maturity. In total, approximately 10ten Commercial real estate borrowers with loans totaling approximately $55.0 million accepted this accommodation. As of September 30, 2020, deferrals for approximately 5 borrowersMarch 31, 2021, one borrower with loans totaling approximately $15.0$4.7 million have expired with the loans returning to payment, while approximately 5 borrowers with loans totaling approximately $40.0 million remainremains in deferral. Of the loans that came off deferral, no loans are delinquent on payment terms as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. The entire Commercial real estate portfolio will continue to be monitored for credit deterioration regardless of their participation in the plan.
Credit quality and Allowance for loan loss
44


The Company continues to monitor and evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the credit quality of our assets. Total criticized and classified loans as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was $322.6$314.4 million, an increase of $16.5$3.6 million, or 5%1%, linked quarter, primarily driven byquarter. During the downgrade of $71.0 million of loans, partially offset by $54.0 million of payoffs, paydowns and upgrades. Of the $71.0 million in downgrades in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020, $62.0 million were Commercial real estate loans across 16 relationships, primarily with hospitality and retail clients. During the third quarter of 2020,2021, the Company recognized a total net provision credit of $2.8 million$9.0 million. The decrease in the Allowance for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily driven by the latest current reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, which indicated a modest improvementimproving economic conditions from the prior quarter. Withinquarter, as well as a change in the Commercial real estate portfolio,weighting of the forecast scenarios used to account for risks and assumptions not incorporated in the forecasts. These improvements were partially offset by the net impact of the improving current reasonable and supportable economic forecasts was partially offset by additional reserves needed to account for the increase in criticized and classified loanschange in the Commercial real estatecomposition and volume of the loan portfolio.
Other accounting matters
48


There have been no significant changes to judgments in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities, and there have been no material impairments of financial assets. The Company will continue to monitor the fair value of assets to determine if trigger events exist to warrant further impairment testing.
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies reflect significant judgments and uncertainties, which could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. The Company believes that its most critical accounting policiespolicy upon which its financial condition depends, which involveinvolves the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments, areis the allowanceAllowance for loan losses, the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets and the analysis for impairment, and income tax estimates. These policies arelosses. This policy is discussed in Part II. Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.
Subsequent to the filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, there was one change to the critical accounting policies. Upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”) on January 1, 2020, management's policy and processes for the allowanceAllowance for loan losses have changed. The updates in this standard replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a CECL model methodology. The CECL model methodology incorporates current conditions, reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, and prepayments to estimate loan losses over the life of the loan. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 7: Allowance for Loan Losses” for further discussion on the new policy and processes. There have been no other changes to the Company's policies through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Net interest income. Net interest income represents the difference between interest earned, primarily on loans and investments, and interest paid on funding sources, primarily deposits and borrowings. Interest rate spread is the difference between the average rate earned on total interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities. NIM is the amount of net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The average rate earned

on interest-earning assets is the amount of annualized interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities is equal to annualized interest expense as a percentage of average interest-bearing liabilities. When credit quality declines and loans are placed on nonaccrual status, NIM can decrease because

effect on the related yield. Interest collected on loans while on nonaccrual status is generally applied to the principal balance. If a nonaccruing loan pays off, previously collected interest income that was applied to principal may be recorded as interest income if the principal balance was paid in full. Based on the net amount collected or reversed, the impact on interest income and related yields can be either positive or negative. In addition, the Bank collects prepayment penalties on certain commercial loans that pay off prior to maturity which could also impact interest income and related yields positively. The amount and timing of prepayment penalties varies from quarter to quarter.

The decrease in the Allowance for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was primarily driven by the latest current reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, which indicated a modest improvementimproving economic conditions from the prior quarter, as well as the net impact of the change in the composition and volume of the loan portfolio. These improvements were partially offset by the net impact in the changes of the qualitative factors, and a change in the weighting of the forecast scenarios used to account for risks and assumptions not incorporated in the forecasts, including consideration forforecasts. These improvements were partially offset by the significant uncertainty related to the duration and severitynet impact of economic impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $35.0 million, compared to a provision for loan losses of $0.1 million for the same period in 2019. The increase in Allowance for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by the change in allowance methodology from the incurred loss model to the current expected credit loss model, as well as the current reasonablecomposition and supportable economic forecast deterioration as a resultvolume of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the net change in qualitative factors to account for risks and

assumptions related to our loan portfolio not incorporated in the forecasts.portfolio. Under the CECL methodology, the provisionProvision for loan losses required may be significantly affected by reasonable and supportable economic forecasts.
The Provision/(credit) for loan losses is determined as a result of the required level of the allowanceAllowance for loan losses, estimated by management, which reflects the inherent risk of loss in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet dates. The Company estimates credit losses on a collective basis for loans sharing similar risk characteristics using a quantitative model combined with an assessment of certain qualitative factors designed to address forecast risk and model risk inherent in the quantitative model output. The quantitative model utilizes a factor-based approach to estimate expected credit losses using probability of default and loss given default, which are derived from a selected peer group's historical default and loss experience. The model estimates expected credit losses using loan level data over the contractual life of the exposure, considering the effect of prepayments and curtailments. Economic forecasts are incorporated into the estimate over a reasonable and supportable forecast period, beyond which is a reversion to the Company's historical long-run average. Qualitative factors are estimated by management and include trends in problem loans, strength of management, concentration risk and underwriting standards. For further details, see “Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality” below. For periods disclosed prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2020, the Allowance for loan losses was determined under the incurred loss model. Refer to "Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Account Policies" in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for a description of the methodology.

The securities in which the Bank may invest are subject to regulation and are generally limited to securities that are considered “investment grade.”

The increase in deposits was primarily due to an increase in demand deposits driven byfrom new and existing clients maintaining additional cash liquidity, as well as deposits related to the funding of PPP loans in the second quarter of 2020 that have not yet been utilized. Average total deposits for the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 increased 16%24% from the same period in 20192020 as shown in the average balance sheet driven by the same factors. For further details, see “Results of Operations” above.
Deposits are the principal source of the Bank’s funds for use in lending, investments, and liquidity. Deposit levels can fluctuate from quarter to quarter as a result of large short-term transactions by commercial clients. Seasonality can also affect the deposit balances.
As a general matter, deposits are a cheaper source of funds than borrowings, because interest rates paid for deposits are typically less than interest rates charged for borrowings. If, as a result of general economic conditions, market interest rates, competitive pressures, or otherwise, the amount of deposits at the Bank decreases, the Bank may be limited in its ability to grow its loan portfolio or may have to rely more heavily on higher cost borrowings as a source of funds in the future.

residential mortgage loans and mortgage loans on investment or vacation properties, unsecured and secured personal lines of credit, home equity loans, and overdraft protection. Loans made by the Bank to businesses include commercial and mortgage loans, revolving lines of credit, working capital loans, equipment financing, community lending programs, and construction and land loans. The types and sizes of loans the Bank originates are limited by regulatory requirements.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company made a change to the loan portfolio segmentation in which Commercial and industrial and Commercial tax-exempt loans were bifurcated given their different underlying risk characteristics. Beginning in the second quarter of 2020, the Company also added a segment for PPP loans originated. For the periodperiods ended March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, there were no such$351.2 million and $312.4 million of PPP loans, as the SBA initiated the program in the first quarter of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.respectively.
The Bank’s loans are affected by the economic and real estate markets in which they are located. Generally, commercial real estate, construction, and land loans are affected more than residential loans in an economic downturn. The ability to grow the loan portfolio is traditionally partially related to the Bank's ability to increase deposit levels. If, as a result of general economic conditions, market interest rates, competitive pressures, or otherwise, deposit levels at the Bank decrease relative to its overall banking operations, the Bank may be limited in its ability to grow its loan portfolio or may need to increase higher cost borrowings to fund growth in the loan portfolio.

Allowance for loan losses. The Allowance for loan losses is reported as a reduction of outstanding loan balances and totaled $84.6$74.0 million and $72.0$81.2 million as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.
The Allowance for loan losses increased $12.6decreased $7.2 million to $84.6 million, or 1.17% of total loans, as of September 30, 2020 from $72.0$74.0 million, or 1.03% of total loans, as of March 31, 2021 from $81.2 million, or 1.14% of total loans, as of December 31, 2019. The increase in Allowance for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by the change in allowance methodology from the incurred loss model to the current expected credit loss model, as well as the current reasonable and supportable economic forecast deterioration as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the net change in qualitative factors to account for risks and assumptions related to our loan portfolio not incorporated in the forecasts.
2020. The Company recognized a Provision credit of $4.6$7.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. The decrease in the Allowance for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was primarily driven by the latest current reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, which indicated a modest improvementimproving economic conditions from the prior quarter, as well as the net impact of the change in the composition and volume of the loan portfolio. These improvements were partially offset by the net impact in the changes of the qualitative factors, and a change in the weighting of the forecast scenarios used to account for risks and assumptions not incorporated in the forecasts, including consideration forforecasts. These improvements were partially offset by the significant uncertainty related tonet impact of the duration and severity of economic impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The decreasechange in the Allowance for loan lossescomposition and volume of $20.4 million on adoption of ASU 2016-13 was driven primarily by the portfolio composition including the short-term nature of Commercial real estate loans, estimated prepayments, a change to the loan portfolio segmentation in which Commercial and industrial and Commercial tax-exempt loans were bifurcated given the different underlying risk characteristics, and the economic projections at the time of adoption. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 7: Allowance for Loan Losses” for an analysis of the Company’s allowance for loan losses.

The Bank’s policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest on a loan when the collectability of principal or interest in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement is in doubt. Despite a loan having a current payment status, if the Bank has reason to believe it may not collect all principal and interest on the loan in accordance with the related contractual terms, the Bank will generally discontinue the accrual of interest income and will apply any future interest payments received to principal. Of the $41.3$25.8 million of loans on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2020, $26.5March 31, 2021, $11.9 million, or 64%46%, had a current payment status, $4.1$3.6 million, or 10%14%, were 30-89 days past due, and $10.7$10.3 million, or 26%40%, were 90 days or more past due. Of the $16.1$23.9 million of loans on nonaccrual status as of December 31, 2019, $9.82020, $12.4 million, or 61%52%, had a current payment status, $1.2$1.6 million, or 7%, were 30-89 days past due, and $5.1$9.9 million, or 32%41%, were 90 days or more past due.
The Bank continues to evaluate the underlying collateral of each nonperforming loan and pursue the collection of interest and principal. Where appropriate, the Bank obtains updated appraisals on collateral. Reductions in fair values of the collateral for nonaccrual loans, if they are collateral dependent, could result in additional future provision for loan losses depending on the timing and severity of the decline. See Part I. Item 1. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 6: Loans Portfolio and Credit Quality” for further information on nonperforming loans.
Delinquencies. The past due status of a loan is determined in accordance with its contractual repayment terms. All loan types are reported past due when one scheduled payment is due and unpaid for 30 days or more. Loans 30-89 days past due decreased $20.3$12.7 million, or 78%64%, to $5.6$7.2 million as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 from $25.9$19.9 million as of December 31, 2019. The decrease in loans 30-89 days past due is primarily due to September having 30 calendar days and December having 31 calendar days. The number of days in the calendar quarter can impact this metric and is not necessarily indicative of an underlying credit quality issue.2020. Loan delinquencies can be attributed to many factors, such as continuing weakness in, or deteriorating, economic conditions in the region in which the collateral is located, the loss of a tenant or lower lease rates for commercial borrowers, or the loss of income for consumers and the resulting liquidity impacts on the borrowers. The economic conditions created by the COVID-19 pandemic represent an example of an event that could cause an increase in delinquencies in future quarters. The Bank has instituted programs such as deferment programs, forbearance programs, and the commercial real estate second mortgage program to help borrowers who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Further deterioration in the credit condition of these delinquent loans could lead to the loans going to nonaccrual status and/or being downgraded. Downgrades would generally result in additional charge-offs or provisions for loan losses. Past due loans may be included with accruing substandard loans.
In certain instances, although very infrequently, loans that have become 90 days or more past due may remain on accrual status if the value of the collateral securing the loan is sufficient to cover principal and interest and the loan is in the process of collection. There were no loans 90 days or more past due, but still accruing, as of both September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.

Impaired loans. Impaired loans individually evaluated for impairment in the Allowance for loan losses totaled $42.6$25.3 million as of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, an increase of $23.4$0.2 million, or 122%.01%, compared to $19.2$25.1 million as of December 31, 2019, primarily driven by the downgrade of one Commercial and industrial relationship in Northern California that is well-collateralized. This loan was paid off in October 2020 with no related loss.2020. As of September 30, 2020, $0.9March 31, 2021, $6.5 million of the individually evaluated impaired loans had $0.2$0.7 million in specific reserve allocations. The remaining $41.7$18.8 million of individually evaluated impaired loans did not have specific reserve allocations due to the adequacy of collateral, prior charge-offs taken, interest collected and applied to principal, or a combination of these items. As of December 31, 2019, $1.12020, $2.7 million of individually evaluated impaired loans had $0.2$0.4 million in specific reserve allocations, and the remaining $18.1$22.4 million of individually evaluated impaired loans did not have specific reserve allocations.
The Bank may, under certain circumstances, restructure loans as a concession to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. Such loans are classified as TDRs and are included in impaired loans. TDRs typically result from the Bank’s loss mitigation activities which, among other things, could include rate reductions, payment extensions, and/or principal forgiveness. As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, TDRs totaled $14.5$14.0 million and $12.6$13.9 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2020, $7.8March 31, 2021, $7.1 million of the $14.5$14.0 million in TDRs were on accrual status. As of December 31, 2019, $7.12020, $7.2 million of the $12.6$13.9 million in TDRs were on accrual status.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank initiated a mortgage deferment program under which principal and interest payments on qualifying loans are generally deferred for initially three months and the loan term is extended three months; if requested, the loan may be deferred for a subsequent three months. Loans that are deferred under the program are not considered TDRs or past due based on current regulatory guidance. In total, approximately 350365 residential and home equity loans totaling approximately $220.0 million werehave been processed under the program. As of September 30, 2020, deferrals forMarch 31, 2021, approximately 20047 loans totaling approximately $120.0$20.0 million remain in deferral under the program. Approximately 13 loans totaling $1.5 million are delinquent on payment terms as of March 31, 2021 after the deferral expired, primarily First Time Home Buyer loans as defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, while the remainder have expired with the loans returning to payment, while approximately 140 loans totaling approximately $100.0 million remain in deferral under the program. Of the loans that came off deferral, less than 10 loans totaling less than $1.0 million are delinquent on payment terms.payment.
Additionally,Also in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank initiated a program where it offeredoffering qualified commercialCommercial and industrial borrowers principal payment deferralsdeferral for six months, with the deferred principal added to the last payment. In total, approximately 90 commercial85 Commercial and industrial loans totaling approximately $125.0 million werehave been processed under the program. As of September 30, 2020, deferrals forMarch 31, 2021, approximately 60four loans totaling approximately $75.0$5.7 million remain in deferral under the program, while the remainder have expired with the loans returning to payment, while approximately 30 loans totaling approximately $50.0 million remain in deferral under the program.payment. Of the loans that came off deferral, no loans are delinquent on payment terms.terms as of March 31, 2021.
Potential problem loans. Loans that evidence weakness or potential weakness related to repayment history, the borrower’s financial condition, or other factors are reviewed by the Bank’s management to determine if the loan should be adversely classified. Delinquent loans may or may not be adversely classified depending upon management’s judgment with respect to each individual loan. The Bank classifies certain loans as “substandard,” “doubtful,” or “loss” based on criteria consistent with guidelines provided by banking regulators. Potential problem loans consist of accruing classified loans where known information about possible credit problems of the related borrowers causes management to have doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms and which may result in classification of such loans as nonperforming at some time in the future. Management cannot predict the extent to which economic conditions may worsen or other factors which may impact borrowers and the potential problem loans. Triggering events for loan downgrades include updated appraisal information, inability of borrowers to cover debt service payments, loss of tenants, notification by the tenant of non-renewal of lease or inability of tenants to pay rent, inability of borrowers to sell completed construction projects, and the inability of borrowers to sell properties. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that other loans will not become 90 days or more past due, be placed on nonaccrual, be restructured, or require increased allowance coverage and provision for loan losses.
As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Bank has identified $81.8$136.1 million in potential problem loans, an increase of $23.9$29.2 million, or 41%27%, compared to $57.9$106.9 million as of December 31, 2019. The increase in potential problem loans during the first nine months of 2020 was driven by one Commercial real estate borrowing relationship in the New England region of $22.9 million.2020. Numerous factors impact the level of potential problem loans, including economic conditions and real estate values. These factors affect the borrower’s liquidity and, in some cases, the borrower’s ability to comply with loan covenants, such as debt service coverage. For instance, when there is a loss of a major tenant in a commercial real estate building, the appraised value of the building generally declines. Loans may be downgraded when this occurs as a result of the additional risk to the borrower in obtaining a new tenant in a timely manner and negotiating a lease with similar or better terms than the previous tenant. In many cases, these loans are still current and paying as agreed, although future performance may be impacted.

Liquidity
Liquidity is defined as the Company’s ability to generate adequate cash to meet its needs for day-to-day operations and material long and short-term commitments. Liquidity risk is the risk of potential loss if the Company were unable to meet its funding requirements at a reasonable cost. The Company manages its liquidity based on demand, commitments, specific events and uncertainties to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity is to respond to the needs of depositors and borrowers as well as earnings enhancement opportunities in a changing marketplace.

At September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company’s Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $546.3 million.$1.4 billion. The Holding Company’s Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $54.9$78.3 million at September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. Management believes that the Company has adequate liquidity to meet its commitments for the foreseeable future.
Management is responsible for establishing and monitoring liquidity targets as well as strategies to meet these targets. At September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, consolidated Cash and cash equivalents, Investment securities available-for-sale and Equity securities at fair value less Securities pledged against current borrowings and derivatives amounted to $1.5$2.7 billion, or 16%26% of total assets, compared to $1.2$2.2 billion, or 14%22% of total assets, at December 31, 2019.2020. The Bank also has the ability to access additional borrowing under the PPPLF by pledging funded PPP loans, if needed. In addition, the Company has access to available borrowings through the FHLB totaling $1.3$1.5 billion at September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and $1.4 billion at December 31, 2019.2020. Combined, this liquidity totals $2.8$4.2 billion, or 30%40% of assets and 36%46% of deposits, as of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, compared to $2.6$3.7 billion, or 30%37% of assets and 36%43% of deposits, at December 31, 2019.2020.

The Bank has various internal policies and guidelines regarding liquidity, both on- and off-balance sheet, loans to deposits ratio, and limits on the use of wholesale funds. These policies and/or guidelines require certain minimum or maximum balances or ratios be maintained at all times. In light of the provisions in the Bank’s internal liquidity policies and guidelines, the Bank will carefully manage the amount and timing of future loan growth along with its relevant liquidity policies and balance sheet guidelines. As a general matter, deposits are a cheaper source of funds than borrowings, because interest rates paid for deposits are typically less than interest rates charged for borrowings. If, as a result of general economic conditions, market interest rates, competitive pressures, or otherwise, the balance of deposits at the Bank approaches or exceedsfalls below internal policies and/or guidelines, the Bank may be limited in its ability to grow its loan portfolio, may rely more heavily on higher cost borrowings as a source of funds, or consider loan sales in the future.
Holding Company liquidity. The Company and noncontrolling interest holders of the Company’s majority-owned affiliate, DGHM, have contingent put options, call options, and mandatory repurchase obligations that would require the Company to purchase (and the noncontrolling interest owners of DGHM to sell) the remaining noncontrolling interest in DGHM at contractually predetermined values as determined by the operating agreement of DGHM. At September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the estimated maximum redemption value for DGHM related to outstanding put options was zero based on the contractually predetermined calculation in the DGHM operating agreement. These put and call options are discussed in detail in Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 14: Noncontrolling Interests” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.
Although not a primary source of funds, the Holding Company has generated liquidity from the sale of affiliates in the past. Additional funds were generated at the time of the sale of Anchor Capital Advisors LLC (“Anchor”) which occurred in April 2018 and the sale of BOS which occurred in December 2018. As part of the sale agreements for both Anchor and BOS, the Company expects to receive future contingent payments for the remaining threenine months of 20202021 of approximately $0.6$1.8 million and $0.6$2.0 million, at September 30, 2020, respectively.
Dividends from the Bank are limited by various regulatory requirements relating to capital adequacy and retained earnings. See Part II. Item 5. “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholders Matters, and Issuers Purchases of Equity Securities” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 for further details.
The Bank pays dividends to the Holding Company, subject to the approval of the Bank’s Board of Directors, depending on its profitability and asset growth. Dividends from the Bank to the Holding Company are limited to the sum of the Bank’s Net income during the current calendar year and the retained net income of the prior two calendar years unless approved by regulators. If regulatory agencies were to require banks to increase their capital ratios, or impose other restrictions, it may limit the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Holding Company and/or limit the amount that the Bank could grow.
Although the Bank’s capital currently exceeds regulatory requirements for capital, the Holding Company could downstream additional capital to increase the rate that the Bank could grow. Depending upon the amount of capital downstreamed by the Holding Company, the approval of the Holding Company’s Board of Directors may be required prior to the payment, if any.
The Company is required to pay interest quarterly on its junior subordinated debentures. The estimated cash outlay for the remaining threenine months of 20202021 for the interest payments is approximately $0.5$1.5 million based on the debt outstanding at September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. LIBOR is expected to be phased out as an index by the end of 2021, and $103.1 million of the Company's junior subordinated debentures are tied to LIBOR. The Company will need to negotiate an alternative benchmark rate to be used at the time.
The Company presently pays cash dividends on its common stock on a quarterly basis dependent upon a number of factors such as profitability, Holding Company liquidity, and the Company’s capital levels. However, the ultimate declaration of dividends by the Board of Directors of the Company will depend on consideration of, among other things, recent financial trends and internal forecasts, regulatory limitations, alternative uses of capital deployment, general economic conditions, and regulatory changes to capital requirements. Additionally, the Company is required to inform and consult with the Federal Reserve in advance of declaring a dividend that exceeds earnings for the period for which the dividend is being paid.
Given the current economic conditions The Merger Agreement with SVB further limits and future forecasts,restricts the Company’s Board of Directors will evaluate the amount of futureability to declare and pay dividends if any, to be declared on a quarter by quarter basis. The Board of Directors could reduce or eliminate quarterly cash dividends based on the current or forecasted conditions if deemed prudent.its common stock.

Bank liquidity. The Bank has established various borrowing arrangements to provide additional sources of liquidity and funding. Management believes that the Bank currently has adequate liquidity available to respond to current demands. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Boston, and as such, has access to short- and long-term borrowings from that institution. The FHLB can change the advance amounts that banks can utilize based on a bank’s current financial condition as obtained from publicly available data such as FDIC Call Reports. Decreases in the amount of FHLB borrowings available to the Bank would lower its liquidity and possibly limit the Bank’s ability to grow in the short-term. In addition, due to the elevated level of deposits in 2020 and in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020,2021, the Bank did not utilize any borrowings from the PPPLF, as originally anticipated. However, the Bank will continue to monitor its level of deposits and may utilize borrowings from the PPPLF in future quarters, if needed. Management believes that the Bank has adequate liquidity to meet its commitments for the foreseeable future.
In addition to the above liquidity, the Bank has access to the FRB discount window facility, which can provide short-term liquidity as “lender of last resort”. The use of non-core funding sources, including brokered deposits and borrowings, by the Bank may be limited by regulatory agencies. Generally, the regulatory agencies prefer that banks rely on core-funding sources for liquidity.
From time to time, the Bank purchases federal funds from the FHLB and other banking institutions to supplement its liquidity position. At September 30,March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Bank had unused federal fund lines of credit totaling $325.0$400.0 million compared to $500.0 million at December 31, 2019, with correspondent institutions to provide it with immediate access to overnight borrowings. Certain liquidity sources, such as federal funds lines, may be withdrawn by the correspondent bank at any time. The decrease in the federal funds availability in the third quarter of 2020 resulted from the withdrawal of certain lines of credit due to the Bank’s financial results as of June 30, 2020. At September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the Bank did not have any outstanding borrowings under the federal funds lines with these correspondent institutions nor outstanding borrowings under federal funds lines with the FHLB.
The Bank has negotiated brokered deposit agreements with several institutions that have nationwide distribution capabilities. The Bank participates in deposit placement services that can be used to provide customers expanded deposit insurance coverage. At September 30,March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Bank had $295.0$250.0 million of brokered deposits outstanding under these agreements, compared to $258.7 million at December 31, 2019.agreements. Funds in the sweep deposit program between the Bank and Boston Private Wealth are not considered brokered deposits.
If the Bank is no longer able to utilize the FHLB for borrowing, collateral currently used for FHLB borrowings could be transferred to other facilities such as the FRB’s discount window. In addition, the Bank could increase its usage of brokered deposits. These other borrowing arrangements may have higher rates than the FHLB would typically charge.

Under the Federal Reserve’s capital rules applicable to the Company and the Bank, the Company and the Bank are each required to maintain a minimum common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 4.5%, a minimum total Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 6.0%, a minimum total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 8.0%, and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%. Additionally, Federal Reserve rules require the Company and the Bank to each establish a capital conservation buffer of common equity Tier 1 capital in an amount above the minimum risk-based capital requirements for “adequately capitalized” institutions equal to 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets, or face restrictions on the ability to pay dividends, pay discretionary bonuses, and to engage in share repurchases.
A Federal Reserve-supervised institution, such as the Bank, is considered “well capitalized” if it (i) has a total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 10.0% or greater; (ii) a Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 8.0% or greater; (iii) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio to risk-weighted assets of 6.5% or greater; (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5.0% or greater; and (iv) is not subject to any written agreement, order, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure. The Bank is currently considered “well capitalized” under all regulatory definitions.
The following table presents the Company’s and the Bank’s regulatory capital and related ratios as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020. Also presented are the minimum requirements established by the Federal Reserve as of those dates for the Company and the Bank, respectively, to meet applicable capital requirements for the Bank to be considered “well capitalized” under the prompt corrective action provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. The Federal Reserve and the Massachusetts Division of Banks may impose higher capital ratios than those listed below based upon the results of regulatory exams.

Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as filed with the SEC on August 6, 2020 (the “Second Quarter 10-Q”), based on information currently knownSEC. There have been no material changes to us and recent developmentsthese risk factors since the datefiling of the Second Quarter 10-Q filing. The matters discussed below should be read in conjunction with the risks described in Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report and Part II. Items 1A. “Risk Factors” of our First Quarter 10-Q and Second Quarter 10-Q. However, the risks and uncertainties that we face are not limited to those described below and those set forth in the Annual Report and First Quarter 10-Q and Second Quarter 10-Q. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business and the trading price of our securities, particularly in light of the fast-changing nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, responsive containment measures taken and the related impacts to economic and operating conditions.report. 
The COVID-19 pandemic, and the measures taken to control its spread, will continue to adversely impact our employees, customers, business operations and financial results, and the ultimate impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
The COVID-19 pandemic has, and will likely continue to, severely impact the national economy and the regional and local markets in which we operate, lower equity market valuations, create significant volatility and disruption in capital and debt markets, and increase unemployment levels. Our business operations may be disrupted if significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions, or other restrictions in connection with the pandemic. We are subject to heightened cybersecurity, information security and operational risks as a result of work-from-home arrangements that we have put in place for our employees. Federal Reserve actions to combat the economic contraction caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, including the reduction of the target federal funds rate and quantitative easing programs, could, if prolonged, adversely affect our net interest income and margins, and our profitability. The continued closures of many businesses and the institution of pandemic-related orders and directives in the states and communities we serve have reduced business activity and financial transactions, and may impact the execution of our strategic plan, such as by delaying strategic hiring. Government policies and directives relating to the pandemic response are subject to change as the effects and spread of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve. It is unclear whether any COVID-19 pandemic-related businesses losses that we or our customers may suffer will be covered by existing insurance policies. Additionally, certain government directives and social distancing protocols may hinder our ability to conduct timely property appraisals, which could delay or impact the accuracy of the recognition of credit losses in our loan portfolios. Changes in customer behavior due to worsening business and economic conditions or legislative or regulatory initiatives may impact the demand for our products and services, which could adversely affect our revenue. Increases in deposit balances due, among other things, to government stimulus and relief programs could adversely affect our financial performance if we are unable to successfully lend or invest those funds. The measures we have taken to aid our customers, including the introduction of a mortgage deferment program, may be insufficient to help our customers who have been negatively impacted by the economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic. Loans that are currently in deferral status may become nonperforming loans. More generally, because of adverse economic and market conditions, our clients may be unable to repay their loans. A borrower’s default on its obligations under one or more Bank loans may result in lost principal and interest income and increased operating expenses as a result of the allocation of management time and external resources to the collection and workout of the loan. If there is an increase in borrower defaults, we may be required to increase the Bank’s provision for loan loss expense. Adverse economic or market conditions may cause us to recognize impairments on the securities we hold, goodwill, intangible assets, and right-of-use assets. The increase in market volatility and a corresponding increase in trading frequency means that our Wealth Management and Trust business is subject to an increased risk of trading errors, and the risk that any trading errors are of an increased magnitude. While the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted our results of operations for the first three calendar quarters of 2020, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios, will depend on future developments, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic, as well as further actions we may take as may be required by government authorities or that we determine is in the best interests of our employees and customers. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the pandemic.

Our participation in the SBA’s PPP may expose us to reputational harm, increased litigation risk, as well as the risk that the SBA may not fund some or all of the guarantees associated with PPP loans, which could result in these loans being charged-off.
We have approved approximately 1,045 loans aggregating approximately $380.3 million through the PPP. Lenders participating in the PPP have faced increased public scrutiny about their loan application process and procedures, and the nature and type of the borrowers receiving PPP loans. We depend on our reputation as a trusted and responsible financial services company to compete effectively in the communities that we serve, and any negative public or customer response to, or any litigation or claims that might arise out of, our participation in the PPP and any other legislative or regulatory initiatives and programs that may be enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, could adversely impact our business. Other larger banks have been subject to litigation regarding the process and procedures that such banks used in processing applications for the PPP, and we may be subject to the same or similar litigation, in addition to litigation in connection with our processing of PPP loan forgiveness applications. In addition, if the SBA determines that there is a deficiency in the manner in which a PPP loan was originated, funded, or serviced by us, the SBA may deny its liability under the guaranty, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already paid under the guaranty, seek recovery of any loss related to the deficiency from us.
