Consolidated Financial Highlights (Continued)
(1) | Pre-tax, pre-provision income (loss) is total revenue less noninterest expense. Management believes that this is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company's ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle. |
(2) | Annualized. |
(3) | Return on tangible common equity, a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income (loss) excluding intangible asset amortization and goodwill impairment divided by average tangible common equity. Management believes that this ratio provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's business results. The methodology for determining tangible common equity may differ among companies. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" in Part I, Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Form 10-Q for additional information. |
(4) | The efficiency ratio is total noninterest expense as a percentage of total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income). |
(5) | The adjusted efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, is adjusted noninterest expense (noninterest expense excluding costs associated with services provided to MUFG Bank, Ltd. branches in the U.S. and goodwill impairment) as a percentage of adjusted total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income excluding fees from affiliates for services provided to MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s branches in the U.S. and the impact of the TCJA). Management believes adjusting the efficiency ratio for the fees and costs associated with services provided to MUFG Bank, Ltd. branches in the U.S. enhances the comparability of MUAH's efficiency ratio when compared with other financial institutions. Management believes adjusting noninterest expense for the impact of goodwill impairment and revenue for the impact of the TCJA enhances comparability between periods. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" in Part I, Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Form 10-Q for additional information. |
(6) | Yields, interest income and net interest margin are presented on a taxable-equivalent basis using the federal statutory tax rate of 21%. |
(7) | The allowance for loan losses ratios are calculated using the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of end of period total loans held for investment or total nonaccrual loans, as appropriate. |
(8) | The allowance for credit losses ratios include the allowances for loan losses and for losses on unfunded credit commitments as a percentage of end of period total loans held for investment or total nonaccrual loans, as appropriate. |
(9) | These capital ratios are calculated in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the U.S. federal banking agencies' final U.S. Basel III regulatory capital rules. |
(10) | The tangible common equity ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated as tangible common equity divided by tangible assets. The methodology for determining tangible common equity may differ among companies. The tangible common equity ratio facilitates the understanding of the Company's capital structure and is used to assess and compare the quality and composition of the Company's capital structure to other financial institutions. See "Capital Management" in Part I, Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Form 10-Q for additional information. |

Please refer to our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (2018 Form 10-K) along with the following discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial position and results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2019 in this Form 10-Q. Averages, as presented in the following tables, are substantially all based upon daily average balances.
As used in this Form 10-Q, terms such as the "Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation (MUAH), one or more of its consolidated subsidiaries, or to all of them together. As permitted by General Instruction H(2) of Form 10-Q, we have abbreviated Management's Discussion and Analysis into a management's narrative analysis of the results of operations.
Introduction
We are a financial holding company, bank holding company and intermediate holding company whose principal subsidiaries are MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (MUB or the Bank) and MUSA. We are owned by MUFG Bank, Ltd. and MUFG. MUFG Bank, Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MUFG.
The Company has four reportable segments: Regional Bank, Global Corporate & Investment Banking - U.S. (previously U.S. Wholesale & Investment Banking), Transaction Banking and MUSA. We service Global Corporate & Investment Banking - U.S., certain Transaction Banking, and MUSA customers through the MUFG brand and serve Regional Bank and Transaction Banking customers through the Union Bank brand. We provide a wide range of financial services to consumers, small businesses, middle-market companies and major corporations, both nationally and internationally.
The Company also provides various business, banking, financial, administrative and support services, and facilities for MUFG Bank, Ltd. in connection with the operation and administration of MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s business in the U.S. (including MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s U.S. branches). The Bank and MUFG Bank, Ltd. are parties to a master services agreement whereby the Bank earns fee income in exchange for services and facilities provided.
The Company’s leadership team is bicoastal with Regional Bank and Transaction Banking leaders on the West Coast while Global Corporate & Investment Banking - U.S. and MUSA leaders are based in New York City. The corporate headquarters (principal executive office) for MUB, MUSA and MUAH is in New York City. MUB's main banking office is in San Francisco. The Company had consolidated assets of $173.2 billion at September 30, 2019.
Executive Overview
We are providing you with an overview of what we believe are the most significant factors and developments that affected our third quarter 2019 results and that could influence our future results. Further detailed information can be found elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. In addition, you should carefully read this entire document and any other reports that we refer to in this Form 10-Q for more detailed information to assist your understanding of trends, events and uncertainties that impact us.
Our sources of revenue are net interest income and noninterest income (collectively “total revenue”). Net interest income is generated predominantly from interest earned from loans, investment securities, securities borrowed or purchased under resale agreements, trading account assets and other interest-earning assets, less interest incurred on deposits and borrowings, securities loaned or sold under repurchase agreements and other interest-bearing liabilities. The primary sources of noninterest income are revenues from investment banking and syndication fees, service charges on deposit accounts, trust and investment management fees, trading account activities, credit facility fees, and fees from affiliates. Changes in interest rates, credit quality, economic trends and the capital markets are primary factors that affect our revenue sources. In the third quarter of 2019, revenue was comprised of 51% net interest income and 49% noninterest income. A summary of our financial results is discussed below.
Our primary sources of liquidity are core deposits, securities and wholesale funding. Core deposits exclude brokered deposits, foreign time deposits, domestic time deposits greater than $250,000, and certain other deposits not considered to be core customer relationships. Wholesale funding includes unsecured funds raised from MUFG Bank, Ltd. and affiliates, interbank and other sources, both domestic and international, funding secured by certain assets, or by borrowing from the FHLB. We evaluate and monitor the stability and reliability of our various funding sources to help ensure that we have sufficient liquidity when adverse situations arise.

Performance Highlights
Net loss attributable to MUAH was $1.4 billion and $989 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, largely due to a $1.6 billion goodwill impairment charge recorded in the third quarter of 2019. The goodwill impairment charge was primarily due to the impact of declining interest rates and a change in the Company's expectation that interest rates will remain lower than previously assumed, updates to key loan growth and mix assumptions, and a reduction of the expected growth of new initiatives on the Company's cash flow projections for the Consumer Banking reporting unit. See "Goodwill Impairment" in Part I, Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Form 10-Q for additional information.
Net interest income decreased $78 million and $168 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, due to a decline in the net interest margin, primarily from higher borrowing costs, partially offset by an increase in earning assets.
The provision for credit losses was $189 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $43 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The provision for credit losses in 2019 was primarily due to growth in unsecured consumer loan balances and the impact of specific reserves for certain impaired loans. The provision for credit losses in 2018 was primarily due to the impact of specific reserves for credit losses on impaired loans during the third quarter of 2018.
Capital Ratios
The Company's capital ratios continued to exceed all well-capitalized and minimum regulatory thresholds for BHCs, as applicable. The U.S. Basel III Common Equity Tier 1, Tier 1 and Total risk-based capital ratios were 13.81%, 13.81% and 14.48%, respectively, at September 30, 2019. The Tier 1 leverage ratio was 8.62% at September 30, 2019.

Net interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased $78 million and $168 million, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2018 due to a decline in the net interest margin partially offset by an increase in earning assets. The net interest margin decreased 35 and 31 basis points, respectively, primarily due to an increase in borrowing costs, partially offset by the favorable effect of noninterest bearing deposits. Earning assets increased primarily due to increases in interest bearing deposits in banks, and commercial and industrial, commercial mortgage, residential mortgage and home equity loans, and other consumer loans, partially offset by a decrease in trading account assets.

Noninterest income increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the same periods in 2018 primarily due to increases in trading account activities, gains on sale of securities, and fees from affiliates from services provided to MUFG Bank, Ltd. under the master services agreement, partially offset by a decline in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights (included in other, net). The Company uses derivatives to offset changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are included in trading account activities. Investment banking and syndication fees also contributed to the increase in noninterest income during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. In addition, the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included the Company's share of losses on certain renewable energy investments of $164 million as a result of the TCJA (included in other, net).

Excluding goodwill impairment, the increase in noninterest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the same periods in 2018 was primarily driven by increases in costs associated with services provided to MUFG Bank, Ltd. under the master services agreement. Expenses related to technology-oriented initiatives to transform certain systems and processes also contributed to the increases in noninterest expense.
In order to reduce our cost base and drive continuous improvement, the Company has launched the first phase of an initiative referred to as its "Rewiring Program," a multi-year effort that will focus on four areas: workforce geographic distribution, organizational design, procurement, and process simplification and automation. The benefits from this phase of the initiative, some of which will be offset by reinvestment in technology, regulatory compliance and growth initiatives, will be implemented over the next several years.
Goodwill Impairment
The Company performs goodwill impairment tests on an annual basis as of April 1, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04") effective July 1, 2019. This standard eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, the Company performs its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
During the third quarter of 2019, due to the decline in interest rates and slower growth than previously forecasted, cash flow projections for certain reporting units were revised lower. The combination of these events led management to believe that it was more likely than not that the fair values of certain reporting units were below carrying value. As a result, the Company initiated an interim quantitative impairment test of goodwill allocated to three of its reporting units: Consumer Banking, Commercial Banking and Real Estate Industries, and Global Corporate & Investment Banking - U.S.
The Company estimated the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of the income and the market approaches. The income approach estimates the fair value of the reporting units by discounting management’s projections of each reporting unit’s cash flows, including a terminal value to estimate the fair value of cash flows beyond the final year of projected results, using a discount rate derived from the Capital Asset Pricing Model. The market approach incorporates comparable public company price to tangible book value and price to earnings multiples.
15
Certain projected cash flows used to estimate fair value of the reporting units were revised lower than previous projections due to the combination of the following factors: the decline in interest rates through September 30, 2019 and a change in the Company’s expectation that interest rates will remain lower than previously assumed; updates to key loan growth and loan mix assumptions in the forecast to address the Company’s declining net interest margin; and a reduction of the expected growth and cash flow contribution of new initiatives based on a revised economic outlook. Multiples selected in the market approach to estimate fair values were also revised lower than those used in the most recent annual quantitative impairment test due to lower reporting unit earnings.
Upon completing the quantitative impairment test, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.6 billion, which represented the entire amount of goodwill allocated to the Consumer Banking reporting unit and a portion of the goodwill allocated to the Global Corporate & Investment Banking - U.S. reporting unit, which has $667 million allocated goodwill remaining after the impairment. The Commercial Banking and Real Estate Industries reporting unit’s estimated fair value exceeded carrying value by 9%. The impairment charge did not result in a cash outflow and did not significantly affect the regulatory capital ratios or the Company’s liquidity position as of September 30, 2019.
Fair value determinations require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions, estimates, and market factors. Estimating the fair value of individual reporting units requires us to make assumptions and estimates regarding our future plans, as well as industry, economic, and regulatory conditions. These assumptions and estimates include estimated future annual net cash flows, income tax rates, discount rates, growth rates, and other market factors. If current expectations of future growth rates are not met, if market factors outside of our control, such as discount rates and market multiples, change, or if management’s expectations or plans otherwise change, then goodwill allocated to one or more of our reporting units might become impaired in the future.
Income Tax Expense
In the third quarter of 2019, income tax benefit was $18 million and the effective tax rate was 1%, compared with income tax expense of $35 million and an effective tax rate of 10% in the third quarter of 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, income tax expense was $30 million and the effective tax rate was negative 3%, compared with 3% in the comparative prior year period. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge in the third quarter of 2019, the majority of which was not deductible for income tax purposes, the effective tax rate would have been 13% and 12% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. Income tax expense and the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included an adjustment to certain prior period state income taxes during the first quarter of 2018. Excluding that adjustment, the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 would have been 9%.
For additional information regarding income tax expense, see "Income Tax Expense" in Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", “The changes in the U.S. tax laws, the majority of which were effective January 1, 2018, will impact our business and results of operations in a variety of ways, some of which are expected to be positive and others which may be negative” and “Our effective tax rates, and our future results can also be affected by our participation for state income tax purposes as a member of MUFG’s unitary group in the U.S. and by other factors” in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" and Note 17 "Income Taxes" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2018 Form 10-K.

Balance Sheet Analysis
Securities
Our securities portfolio is primarily used for liquidity and interest rate risk management purposes, to invest cash resulting from excess liquidity, and to a lesser extent, to support our business development objectives. We strive to maximize total return while managing this objective within appropriate risk parameters. Securities available for sale are substantially comprised of U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government-sponsored agency securities, RMBSs, CMBSs, Cash Flow CLOs, and direct bank purchase bonds. Direct bank purchase bonds are instruments that are issued in bond form, accounted for as securities, but underwritten as loans with features that are typically found in commercial loans, and are subject to national bank regulatory lending authority standards. These instruments typically are not issued in bearer form, nor are they registered with the SEC or the Depository Trust Company. Additionally, these instruments generally contain certain transferability restrictions and are not assigned external credit ratings. Securities held to maturity consist of U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government-sponsored agency securities and U.S. government-sponsored agency RMBSs and CMBSs.
The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains, gross unrealized losses and fair values of securities, and securities pledged as collateral, are detailed in Note 2 "Securities" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1. "Financial Statements" in this Form 10-Q.

Total deposits increased $5.7 billion from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 due substantially to an increase in time deposits. The increase in time deposits was largely related to Regional Bank deposits, including PurePoint Financial, the direct banking division of the Bank, and brokered deposits.
Securities Financing Arrangements
The Company enters into securities purchased under agreements to resell, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and securities borrowing and lending transactions to facilitate customer match-book activity, cover short positions and to fund the Company's trading inventory. These balances are almost entirely attributable to MUSA. See Note 6 "Securities Financing Arrangements" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1. "Financial Statements" in this Form 10-Q for additional information.

Capital Management
Both MUAH and MUB are subject to various capital adequacy regulations issued by the U.S. federal banking agencies, including requirements to complete an annual capital plan and to maintain minimum regulatory capital ratios. As of September 30, 2019, management believes the capital ratios of MUAH and MUB exceeded all regulatory requirements of “well-capitalized” institutions.
MUAH is subject to regulatory requirements to develop and maintain a capital plan which must be reviewed and approved by its Board of Directors (or designated subcommittee thereof). The Board of Directors approved the Company's annual capital plan in March 2019. MUAH was granted regulatory administrative relief in 2019 and was not required to submit its capital plan to the Federal Reserve or participate in the 2019 CCAR process. MUAH remains subject to future cycles of the Federal Reserve CCAR program.
MUAH and MUB are required to maintain minimum capital ratios under the standardized approach in accordance with the BCBS capital guidelines for U.S. banking organizations issued by the U.S. federal banking agencies (U.S. Basel III Rules). Among other requirements, the U.S. Basel III Rules require a minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5% and a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% (for a total minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.0%) and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4%.
The following tables summarize the calculation of MUAH’s risk-based capital ratios in accordance with the U.S. Basel III rules as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

In addition to capital ratios determined in accordance with regulatory requirements, we consider the tangible common equity ratio when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy. This capital ratio is monitored by management, and presented below, to further facilitate the understanding of our capital structure and for use in assessing and comparing the quality and composition of the Company’s capital structure to other financial institutions. This ratio is not codified within GAAP or federal banking regulations in effect at September 30, 2019. Therefore, it is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Our tangible common equity ratio calculation method may differ from those used by other financial services companies.

Risk Management
All financial institutions must manage and control a variety of business risks that can significantly affect their financial condition and performance. Some of the key risks that the Company must manage include credit, market, liquidity, operational, interest rate, compliance, reputation and strategic risks. The Board, directly or through its appropriate committees, provides oversight and approves our various risk management policies. Management has established a risk management structure that is designed to provide a comprehensive approach for identifying, measuring, monitoring, controlling and reporting on the significant risks faced by the Company. For additional information regarding our risk management structure and framework, see “Risk Management” in Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Credit Risk Management
One of our principal business activities is the extension of credit to individuals and businesses. Our policies and the applicable laws and regulations governing the extension of credit require risk analysis, including an extensive evaluation of the purpose of the request and the borrower’s ability and willingness to repay as scheduled. Our process also includes ongoing portfolio and credit management through portfolio diversification, lending limit constraints, credit review and approval policies, and extensive internal monitoring. For additional information regarding our credit risk management policies, see “Credit Risk Management” in Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2018 Form 10-K.

Allowance for Credit Losses
We maintain an allowance for credit losses (defined as both the allowance for loan losses and the allowance for losses on unfunded credit commitments) to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio as well as for unfunded credit commitments. Understanding our policies on the allowance for credit losses is fundamental to understanding our consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations. Accordingly, our significant accounting policies on the allowance for credit losses are discussed in detail in Note 1 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” and in “Allowance for Credit Losses” in Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2018 Form 10-K. For additional information regarding our allowance for loan losses, see Note 3 "Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” in this Form 10-Q.
The allowance for loan losses was $573 million at September 30, 2019 compared with $474 million at December 31, 2018. Our ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans held for investment was 0.65% as of September 30, 2019 and 0.55% as of December 31, 2018. The provision for loan losses was $92 million and $217 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, primarily due to growth in our other consumer loan portfolio and the impact of specific reserves for certain impaired loans. Net loans charged off to average total loans held for investment were 0.36% and 0.18% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared with 0.03% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans and OREO. Nonaccrual loans are those for which management has discontinued accrual of interest because there exists significant uncertainty as to the full and timely collection of either principal or interest, or such loans have become contractually past due 90 days with respect to principal or interest. OREO includes property where the Bank acquired title through foreclosure or “deed in lieu” of foreclosure. For a more detailed discussion of the accounting for nonaccrual loans, see Note 1 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2018 Form 10-K.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
TDRs are loans where we have granted a concession to a borrower as a result of the borrower experiencing financial difficulty and, consequently, we receive less than the current market-based compensation for loans with similar risk characteristics. Such loans are reviewed for impairment either individually or in pools with similar risk characteristics. Our loss mitigation strategies are designed to minimize economic loss and, at times, may result in changes to the original terms, including interest rate changes, maturity extensions, forbearance, principal paydowns, covenant waivers or changes, payment deferrals, or some combination thereof. We evaluate whether these changes to the terms and conditions of our loans meet the TDR criteria after considering the specific situation of the borrower and all relevant facts and circumstances related to the modification. For our consumer portfolio segment, TDRs are typically initially placed on nonaccrual and a minimum of six consecutive months of sustained performance is required before returning to accrual status. For our commercial portfolio segment, we generally determine accrual status for TDRs by performing an individual assessment of each loan, which may include, among other factors, borrower performance under previous loan terms.
The following table provides a summary of TDRs by loan type, including nonaccrual loans and loans that have been returned to accrual status, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. See Note 3 "Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” in this Form 10-Q for additional information.

Loans 90 Days or More Past Due and Still Accruing Interest
Loans held for investment 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest totaled $18 million and $23 million at September 30, 2019 and at December 31, 2018, respectively.
Concentration of Risk
Commercial and industrial loans are extended principally to corporations, middle-market businesses and small businesses and are originated primarily through our commercial banking offices. Our commercial and industrial portfolio is comprised primarily of the following industry sectors: finance and insurance, manufacturing, real estate and leasing, power and utilities, and wholesale trade. No individual industry sector exceeded 10% of our total loans held for investment at either September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
Construction and commercial mortgage loans are secured by deeds of trust or mortgages. Construction loans are extended primarily to commercial property developers and to residential builders. At September 30, 2019, 69% of the Company’s construction loan portfolio was concentrated in California, 14% to borrowers in New York and 4% to borrowers in Texas. The commercial mortgage loan portfolio consists of loans secured by commercial income properties. At September 30, 2019, 65% of the Company’s commercial mortgage loans were made to borrowers located in California, 7% to borrowers in Washington, and 6% to borrowers in New York.
Residential mortgage loans are originated and secured by one-to-four family residential properties, through our multi-channel network, including branches, private bankers, mortgage brokers, telephone services, and web-based and mobile internet banking applications. We do not have a program for originating or purchasing subprime loan products and we hold the majority of the loans we originate.
24
At September 30, 2019, payment terms on 36% of our residential mortgage loans required a monthly payment that covers the full amount of interest due, but did not reduce the principal balance. At origination, these interest-only loans had strong credit profiles and had weighted average LTV ratios of approximately 65%. The remainder of the portfolio consisted of regularly amortizing loans. Home equity loans are originated principally through our branch network and private banking offices. Approximately 25% and 26% of these home equity loans and lines were supported by first liens on residential properties as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. To manage risk associated with lending commitments, we review all equity-secured lines annually for creditworthiness and may reduce or freeze limits, to the extent permitted by laws and regulations.
Other consumer loans substantially include unsecured consumer loans and consumer credit cards. The Company manages risk associated with these loans by establishing lending criteria similar to other consumer loans originated by the Company.
See Note 3 "Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” in this Form 10-Q for additional information on refreshed FICO scores for our consumer portfolio segment and refreshed LTV ratios for our residential mortgage and home equity loans at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Market Risk Management
The objective of market risk management is to mitigate any adverse impact on earnings and capital arising from changes in interest rates and other market variables. Market risk management supports our broad objective of enhancing shareholder value, which encompasses the achievement of stable earnings growth while promoting capital stability over time. Market risk is defined as the risk of loss arising from an adverse change in the market value of financial instruments caused by fluctuations in market prices or rates. The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk arises from instruments, positions and transactions entered into for purposes other than trading and for trading. Other than trading interest rate risk arises from loans, securities, deposits, borrowings, securities purchased under agreements to resell, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, securities borrowing and lending transactions, derivative instruments and mortgage servicing rights. Trading interest rate risk primarily arises from trading activities at MUAH's broker-dealer subsidiary, MUSA, and derivative contracts MUB enters into as a financial intermediary for customers. For additional information regarding our market risk management policies, see “Market Risk Management” in Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Liquidity Risk Management
Liquidity risk is the risk that an institution's financial condition or overall safety and soundness is adversely affected by an inability, or perceived inability, to meet its contractual, including contingent, obligations. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain a sufficient amount of liquidity and diversity of funding sources to allow an institution to meet obligations in both stable and adverse conditions.
The management of liquidity risk is governed by MUAH ALM and Liquidity Risk Management Policies. The MUAH ALM Policy is under the oversight of ALCO, which oversees first line liquidity risk management activities conducted by Treasury. Treasury formulates the funding, liquidity and contingency planning strategies for the Company, the Bank and MUSA, and is responsible for identifying, managing and reporting on liquidity risk. The Liquidity Risk Management Policies for the Company, the Bank and MUSA are under the oversight of the ARC and the Risk Committee of the Board. MRM conducts independent oversight and governance of liquidity risk management activities to establish sound policies and effective risk and independent monitoring controls. We are also subject to a Contingency Funding Plan framework that identifies actions to be taken to help ensure adequate liquidity if an event should occur that disrupts or adversely affects the normal funding activities of the Company, the Bank or MUSA.
Liquidity risk is managed using a total balance sheet perspective that analyzes all sources and uses of liquidity including loans, investments, deposits and borrowings, as well as off-balance sheet exposures. Although we make an effort to diversify our sources of liquidity, as discussed below, we are required to maintain a minimum amount of TLAC-eligible debt due to affiliates beginning January 1, 2019. Various tools are used to measure and monitor liquidity, including forecasting of the sources and uses of cash flows over multiple time horizons and stress testing of the forecasts under various scenarios. Stress testing, which incorporates both institution-specific, and systemic market scenarios, as well as a combination scenario that adversely affects the Company's liquidity
25
position and profile, facilitates the identification of appropriate remedial measures to help ensure that the Company maintains adequate liquidity in adverse conditions. Such measures may include extending the maturity profile of liabilities, optimizing liability levels through pricing strategies, adding new funding sources, altering dependency on certain funding sources, adjusting asset growth and financing or selling assets.
We are subject to the Federal Reserve's rules imposing TLAC requirements on GSIBs with operations in the U.S., such as MUFG. These rules include an Internal TLAC requirement which sets a minimum amount of loss-absorbing instruments, which must be issued by the Company to MUFG or MUFG Bank, Ltd. (or another wholly-owned non-U.S. subsidiary of MUFG) due to MUFG's single point of entry resolution approach. These loss absorbing instruments are comprised of Tier 1 regulatory capital and long-term debt. TLAC Tier 1 regulatory capital is designed to absorb ongoing losses, while the conversion of TLAC-eligible long-term debt into common equity of the Company is intended to recapitalize the Company prior to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company restructured existing debt issued to MUFG Bank, Ltd. and replaced a portion of its externally-placed debt with the issuance of internal TLAC-eligible debt issued to MUFG Bank, Ltd. in order to comply with the new rules. See "Supervision and Regulation – Dodd-Frank Act and Related Regulations" in Part I, Item 1. "Business" in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information.
We maintain a substantial level of available liquidity in the form of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet funding sources. Sources of liquidity include cash at the Federal Reserve, unencumbered liquid securities, and capacity to borrow on a secured basis at the FHLB of San Francisco and the Federal Reserve Bank’s Discount Window. Total unpledged securities were $24.8 billion at September 30, 2019. Our primary funding sources are customer deposits, secured FHLB advances, and unsecured short-term and long-term debt. Total deposits increased $5.7 billion from $91.0 billion at December 31, 2018 to $96.7 billion at September 30, 2019. As of September 30, 2019, the Bank had $14.1 billion of borrowings outstanding with the FHLB of San Francisco, and the Bank had a remaining unused borrowing capacity from the FHLB of San Francisco of $20.9 billion. The Bank maintains a $12.0 billion unsecured bank note program. Available funding under the bank note program was $4.6 billion at September 30, 2019. We do not have any firm commitments in place to sell additional notes under this program.
In addition to managing liquidity risk on a consolidated basis and at each of the major subsidiaries (the Bank and MUSA), we assess and monitor liquidity at the parent company (MUAH) and the other non-bank subsidiaries. The parent company maintains sufficient liquidity to meet expected obligations, without access to the wholesale funding markets or dividends from subsidiaries, for at least 18 months. At September 30, 2019, the parent company’s liquidity exceeded 18 months.
MUAH and its subsidiaries may borrow on a long-term basis from MUFG Bank, Ltd. and affiliates. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had total long-term debt issued to MUFG Bank, Ltd. and affiliates of $7.2 billion.
The Company’s total wholesale funding included $15.7 billion of long-term debt (excluding nonrecourse debt) and $8.8 billion of short-term debt at September 30, 2019. For additional information regarding our outstanding debt, see Note 7 "Commercial Paper and Other Short-Term Borrowings" and Note 8 "Long-Term Debt" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” in this Form 10-Q. We evaluate and monitor the stability and reliability of our various funding sources to help ensure that we have sufficient liquidity in adverse circumstances.

The OCC, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC jointly adopted a final rule to implement a standardized quantitative liquidity requirement generally consistent with the LCR standards established by the BCBS. The LCR rule is designed to ensure that covered banking organizations maintain an adequate level of cash and HQLA, such as central bank reserves and government and corporate debt, to meet estimated net liquidity needs in a short-term stress scenario using liquidity inflow and outflow assumptions provided in the rule (net cash outflow). At September 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the LCR requirements.
For additional information regarding this rule, see "Supervision and Regulation-Regulatory Capital and Liquidity Standards-Liquidity Coverage Ratio" in Part I, Item 1. of our 2018 Form 10-K and "The effects of changes or increases in, or supervisory enforcement of, banking, securities, competition or other laws and regulations or governmental fiscal, monetary, or tax policies could adversely affect us or make strategic planning more difficult" in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our 2018 Form 10-K.
Operational Risk Management
Operational risk is defined as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events. Operational risk includes legal risk, but excludes strategic and reputation risk. In particular, information security is a significant operational risk element for the Company and includes the risk of losses resulting from cyber-attacks or other related cyber incidents. See “We are subject to a wide array of operational risks, including, but not limited to, cyber-security risks” in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K. Operational risk is mitigated through a system of internal controls that are designed to keep these risks at appropriate levels. For additional information regarding our operational risk management policies, see “Operational Risk Management” in Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2018 Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Estimates
MUAH’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which includes management estimates and judgments. The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on estimates used to measure the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. For example, we use discount factors and other assumptions to measure certain assets and liabilities. A change in the discount factor or other important assumptions could significantly increase or decrease the reported amounts of those assets and liabilities and result in either a beneficial or an adverse impact to our financial results. We estimate probability of default and the loss severity associated with the default (i.e. the loss-given default) to estimate the credit losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolios held for investment and certain off-balance sheet commitments on the balance sheet date. Actual losses could differ significantly from our loss estimates. Other significant estimates that we use include the valuation of certain derivatives and securities, the assumptions used in measuring our transfer pricing revenue, pension obligations, goodwill impairment, and assumptions regarding our effective tax rates. Management has reviewed and approved these critical accounting policies and has discussed these policies with the Audit & Finance Committee.
The Company continuously monitors inputs used when performing its annual goodwill impairment such as the cash flow projections developed to estimate the fair value of its reporting units. When a disruption in the Company’s business, unexpected significant declines in operating results, or significant trends become apparent that may negatively affect those projections, the Company may have to assess the need to perform the first step of the quantitative impairment test to conclude whether the fair value of the reporting unit is still above its carrying amount. During the third quarter of 2019, due to the decline in interest rates and slower growth than previously forecasted, cash flow projections for certain reporting units were revised lower and the Company initiated an interim quantitative impairment test of goodwill allocated to three of its reporting units. See "Goodwill Impairment" in Part I, Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Form 10-Q for additional information.
Understanding our accounting policies is fundamental to understanding our consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations. Accordingly, both our critical accounting estimates and our significant accounting policies are discussed in detail in our 2018 Form 10-K. There were no material changes to these critical accounting estimates during the third quarter of 2019.

The following table shows the calculation of the adjusted efficiency ratio for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Management believes adjusting the efficiency ratio for the fees and costs associated with services provided to MUFG Bank, Ltd. branches in the U.S. enhances the comparability of MUAH's efficiency ratio when compared with other financial institutions. Management believes adjusting noninterest expense for the impact of goodwill impairment and revenue for the impact of the TCJA enhances comparability between periods.

Disclosure of Iranian Activities under Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
We are disclosing the following information pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), which requires an issuer to disclose whether it or any of its affiliates knowingly engaged in certain activities, transactions or dealings relating to Iran or with natural persons or entities designated by the U.S. government under specified Executive Orders. The scope of activities that must be reported includes activities not prohibited by U.S. law and conducted outside the United States in compliance with applicable local law. Because we are indirectly wholly-owned by MUFG, a Japanese corporation, our disclosure is required to include, in addition to our activities, transactions or dealings, those conducted outside the United States by non-U.S. affiliates of MUFG which are not controlled by us. We have requested that MUFG provide us a description of reportable activity under Section 13(r) and have received the following information:
During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, a non-U.S. subsidiary of MUFG engaged in business activities with entities in, or affiliated with, Iran, including counterparties owned or controlled by the Iranian government. Specifically, MUFG’s non-U.S. banking subsidiary, MUFG Bank, issued letters of credit and guarantees and provided remittance and other settlement services mainly in connection with customer transactions related to the purchase and exportation of Iranian crude oil to Japan, and in some cases, in connection with other petroleum-related transactions with Iran by its customers. These transactions occurred prior to the expiration of the Significant Reduction Exception granted to Japan and did not involve U.S. dollars nor clearing services of U.S. banks for the settlement of payments. For the quarter ended September 30, 2019, the aggregate interest and fee income relating to these transactions was less than ¥20 million, representing less than 0.005 percent of MUFG’s total interest and fee income. Some of these transactions were conducted through the use of non-U.S. dollar correspondent accounts and other similar settlement accounts maintained with MUFG Bank outside the United States by Iranian financial institutions and other entities in, or affiliated with, Iran. In addition to such accounts, MUFG Bank receives deposits in Japan from, and provides settlement services in Japan to, fewer than 10 Iranian government-related entities and fewer than 100 Iranian government-related individuals such as Iranian diplomats, and maintains settlement accounts outside the United States for certain other financial institutions specified in Executive Order 13382, which settlement accounts were frozen in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. For the quarter ended September 30, 2019, the average aggregate balance of deposits held in these accounts represented less than 0.1 percent of the average balance of MUFG’s total
29
deposits. The fee income from the transactions attributable to these account holders was less than ¥1 million, representing less than 0.001 percent of MUFG’s total fee income.
We understand that MUFG Bank recognizes that following the withdrawal in May 2018 by the United States from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, the United States has imposed secondary sanctions against non-U.S. persons who engage in or facilitate a broad range of transactions and activities involving Iran. We understand that MUFG Bank has taken the recent sanctions related developments into account and will monitor any future transactions relating to Iran in order to comply with applicable U.S. and Japanese regulations as well as U.S., Japanese and other international sanctions.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The information called for by this item has been omitted pursuant to General Instruction H(2) of Form 10-Q.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the third quarter of 2019, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations
MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation (MUAH) is a financial holding company, bank holding company and intermediate holding company whose principal subsidiaries are MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (MUB or the Bank) and MUFG Securities Americas Inc. (MUSA). MUAH provides a wide range of financial services to consumers, small businesses, middle-market companies and major corporations nationally and internationally. The Company also provides various business, banking, financial, administrative and support services, and facilities for MUFG Bank, Ltd. (formerly The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd.) in connection with the operation and administration of MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s business in the U.S. (including MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s U.S. branches). All of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock are owned by MUFG Bank, Ltd. and MUFG. The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation, its subsidiaries, and its consolidated variable interest entities (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Rules and Regulations of the SEC. However, they do not include all of the disclosures necessary for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the third quarter of 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results anticipated for the full year. These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (2018 Form 10-K).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP also requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Although such estimates contemplate current conditions and management’s expectations of how they may change in the future, it is reasonably possible that actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. This could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition in the near term. Critical estimates made by management in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include, but are not limited to, the allowance for credit losses (Note 3 "Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses"), goodwill impairment, fair value of financial instruments (Note 9 "Fair Value Measurement and Fair Value of Financial Instruments"), pension accounting (Note 12 "Employee Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits"), income taxes, and transfer pricing.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which provides new guidance on the accounting for credit losses for instruments that are within its scope. This new guidance is commonly referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model. For loans and debt securities accounted for at amortized cost, certain off-balance sheet credit exposures, net investments in leases, and trade receivables, the ASU requires an entity to recognize its estimate of credit losses expected over the life of the financial instrument or exposure. Lifetime expected credit losses on purchased financial assets with credit deterioration will be recognized as an allowance with an offset to the cost basis of the asset. For available for sale debt securities, the new standard will require recognition of expected credit losses by recognizing an allowance for credit losses when the fair value of the security is below amortized cost and the recognition of this allowance is limited to the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and fair value. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted in 2019, and requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period of adoption. The Company plans to adopt the ASU on January 1, 2020. The Company has continued parallel testing in the third quarter of 2019. Management currently expects the allowance for credit losses will increase upon adoption of this ASU, primarily the allowance for consumer loans; however, the magnitude of the change is highly dependent on economic conditions and portfolio composition at the time of adoption.

Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations (Continued)
Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies disclosure requirements on fair value measurements to improve their effectiveness. The guidance permits entities to consider materiality when evaluating fair value measurement disclosures and, among other modifications, requires certain new disclosures related to Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance will be effective for MUAH beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The guidance only affects disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements and will not affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting for Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which requires entities that lease assets (i.e., lessees) to recognize assets and liabilities on their balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by those leases. The accounting by entities that own the assets leased (i.e., lessors) remains largely unchanged; however, leveraged lease accounting is no longer permitted for leases that commence after the effective date. The ASU also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2019 and requires a modified retrospective approach, with early adoption permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases, which allows entities the option to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, Leases, which clarified lessor accounting for sales and similar taxes collected by lessors, certain lessor costs, and lease payments with lease and nonlease components. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted this guidance which did not significantly impact the Company's financial position or results of operations.
Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities, which requires premiums on certain purchased callable debt securities to be amortized to the earliest call date. Under current guidance, premiums on callable debt securities are generally amortized over the contractual life of the security. The amortization period for callable debt securities purchased at a discount will not be impacted. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted this guidance which did not significantly impact the Company's financial position or results of operations.
Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which will make more hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting, simplify the application of hedge accounting, and enhance the transparency and understandability of hedge results. The guidance eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. It also amends the disclosure requirements and changes how entities assess effectiveness. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted this guidance which did not significantly impact the Company's financial position or results of operations. As permitted by this guidance, upon adoption the Company transferred securities held to maturity with a carrying amount of $170 million to securities available for sale.
37
Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations (Continued)
Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The ASU removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Under the amendments, a goodwill impairment loss will be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss. Effective July 1, 2019, the Company adopted this guidance in connection with an interim quantitative impairment test of goodwill allocated to three of its reporting units. For additional information related to goodwill, see Note 4 "Goodwill" to these Consolidated Financial Statements.

At September 30, 2019, the Company did not have the intent to sell any securities in an unrealized loss position before a recovery of the amortized cost, which may be at maturity. The Company also believes that it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the securities prior to recovery of amortized cost.
Agency residential mortgage-backed securities consist of securities guaranteed by a U.S. government corporation, such as Ginnie Mae, or a government-sponsored agency such as Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae. These securities are collateralized by residential mortgage loans and may be prepaid at par prior to maturity. The unrealized losses on agency residential mortgage-backed securities resulted from changes in interest rates and not from changes in credit quality. At September 30, 2019, the Company expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities because the Company determined that the strength of the issuers’ guarantees through direct obligations or support from the U.S. government is sufficient to protect the Company from losses.
Commercial mortgage-backed securities are collateralized by commercial mortgage loans and are generally subject to prepayment penalties. The unrealized losses on commercial mortgage-backed securities resulted from higher market yields since purchase. Cash flow analysis of the underlying collateral provides an estimate of other-than-temporary impairment, which is performed quarterly when the fair value of a security is lower than its amortized cost. Based on the analysis performed as of September 30, 2019, the Company expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.
The Company’s CLOs consist of Cash Flow CLOs. A Cash Flow CLO is a structured finance product that securitizes a diversified pool of loan assets into multiple classes of notes. Cash Flow CLOs pay the note holders through the receipt of interest and principal repayments from the underlying loans unlike other types of CLOs that pay note holders through the trading and sale of underlying collateral. Unrealized losses typically arise from widening credit spreads and deteriorating credit quality of the underlying collateral. Cash flow analysis of the underlying collateral provides an estimate of other-than-temporary impairment, which is performed quarterly when the fair value of a security is lower than its amortized cost. Based on the analysis performed as of September 30, 2019, the Company expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.
Other debt securities primarily consist of direct bank purchase bonds, which are not rated by external credit rating agencies. The unrealized losses on these bonds resulted from a higher return on capital expected by the secondary market compared with the return on capital required at the time of origination when the bonds were purchased. The Company estimates the unrealized loss for each security by assessing the underlying collateral of each security. The Company estimates the portion of loss attributable to credit based on the expected cash flows of the underlying collateral using estimates of current key assumptions, such as probability of default and loss severity. Cash flow analysis of the underlying collateral provides an estimate of other-than-temporary impairment, which is performed quarterly when the fair value of a security is lower than its amortized cost and potential impairment is identified. Based on the analysis performed as of September 30, 2019, the Company expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.
The fair value of debt securities available for sale by contractual maturity are shown below. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

Amortized cost is defined as the original purchase cost, adjusted for any accretion or amortization of a purchase discount or premium, less principal payments and any impairment previously recognized in earnings. The carrying amount is the difference between the amortized cost and the amount recognized in OCI. The amount recognized in OCI primarily reflects the unrealized gain or loss at date of transfer from available for sale to the held to maturity classification, net of amortization, which is recorded in interest income on securities.

Credit Quality Indicators
Management analyzes the Company's loan portfolios by applying specific monitoring policies and procedures that vary according to the relative risk profile and other characteristics within the various loan portfolios. Loans within the commercial portfolio segment are classified as either pass or criticized. Criticized credits are those that have regulatory risk ratings of special mention, substandard or doubtful; classified credits are those that have regulatory risk ratings of substandard or doubtful. Special mention credits are potentially weak, as the borrower has begun to exhibit deteriorating trends, which, if not corrected, may jeopardize repayment of the loan and result in further downgrade. Substandard credits have well-defined weaknesses, which, if not corrected, could jeopardize the full satisfaction of the debt. A credit classified as doubtful has critical weaknesses that make full collection improbable on the basis of currently existing facts and conditions.

The Company also monitors the credit quality for substantially all of its consumer portfolio segment using credit scores provided by FICO and refreshed LTV ratios. FICO credit scores are refreshed at least quarterly to monitor the quality of the portfolio. Refreshed LTV measures the principal balance of the loan as a percentage of the estimated current value of the property securing the loan. Home equity loans are evaluated using combined LTV, which measures the principal balance of the combined loans that have liens against the property (including unused credit lines for home equity products) as a percentage of the estimated current value of the property securing the loans. The LTV ratios are refreshed on a quarterly basis, using the most recent home pricing index data available for the property location.
The following tables summarize the loans in the consumer portfolio segment based on refreshed FICO scores and refreshed LTV ratios at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. These tables exclude loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, as discussed above. The amounts presented reflect unpaid principal balances less partial charge-offs.

For the third quarter of 2019, TDR modifications in the commercial portfolio segment were substantially composed of maturity extensions. In the consumer portfolio segment, modifications were largely composed of maturity extensions and interest rate reductions. There were no charge-offs related to TDR modifications for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018. For the commercial and consumer portfolio segments, the allowance for loan losses for TDRs was measured on an individual loan basis or in pools with similar risk characteristics.

For loans in the consumer portfolio in which impairment is measured using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, historical payment defaults and the propensity to redefault are some of the factors considered when determining the allowance for loan losses.
Loan Impairment
Loans that are individually evaluated for impairment include larger nonaccruing loans within the commercial and industrial, construction, and commercial mortgage loan portfolios and loans modified in a TDR. The Company records an impairment allowance when the value of an impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan.

The Company performs goodwill impairment tests on an annual basis as of April 1, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04") effective July 1, 2019. This standard eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, the Company performs its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
During the third quarter of 2019, due to the decline in interest rates and slower growth than previously forecasted, cash flow projections for certain reporting units were revised lower. The combination of these events led management to believe that it was more likely than not that the fair values of certain reporting units were below carrying value. As a result, the Company initiated an interim quantitative impairment test of goodwill allocated to three of its reporting units: Consumer Banking, Commercial Banking and Real Estate Industries, and Global Corporate & Investment Banking - U.S.
The Company estimated the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of the income and the market approaches. The income approach estimates the fair value of the reporting units by discounting management’s projections of each reporting unit’s cash flows, including a terminal value to estimate the fair value of cash flows beyond the final year of projected results, using a discount rate derived from the Capital Asset Pricing Model. The market approach incorporates comparable public company price to tangible book value and price to earnings multiples.
Certain projected cash flows used to estimate fair value of the reporting units were revised lower than previous projections due to the combination of the following factors: the decline in interest rates through September 30, 2019 and a change in the Company’s expectation that interest rates will remain lower than previously assumed; updates to key loan growth and loan mix assumptions in the forecast to address the Company’s declining net interest margin; and a reduction of the expected growth and cash flow contribution of new initiatives based on a revised economic outlook. Multiples selected in the market approach to estimate fair value were also revised lower than those used in the most recent annual quantitative impairment test due to lower reporting unit earnings.
Upon completing the quantitative impairment test, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.6 billion, which represented the entire amount of goodwill allocated to the Consumer Banking reporting unit and a portion of the goodwill allocated to the Global Corporate & Investment Banking - U.S. reporting unit, which has $667 million allocated goodwill remaining after the impairment.

Note 5—Variable Interest Entities
In the normal course of business, the Company has certain financial interests in entities which have been determined to be VIEs. Generally, a VIE is a corporation, partnership, trust or other legal structure where the equity investors do not have substantive voting rights, an obligation to absorb the entity’s losses or the right to receive the entity’s returns, or the ability to direct the significant activities of the entity. The following discusses the Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated VIEs.
Consolidated VIEs
The following tables present the assets and liabilities of consolidated VIEs recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

LIHC Investments
The Company sponsors, manages and syndicates two LIHC investment fund structures. These investments are designed to generate a return primarily through the realization of U.S. federal tax credits and deductions. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary and has consolidated these investments because the Company has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the funds’ economic performances and also has the obligation to absorb losses of the funds that could potentially be significant to the funds. Neither creditors nor equity investors in the LIHC investments have any recourse to the general credit of the Company, and the Company’s creditors do not have any recourse to the assets of the consolidated LIHC investments.
Leasing Investments
The Company has leasing investments primarily in the wind energy, rail and coal industries. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary and has consolidated these investments because the Company has the power to direct the activities of these entities that significantly impact the entities’ economic performances. The Company also has the right to receive potentially significant benefits or the obligation to absorb potentially significant losses of these investments.

Unconsolidated VIEs
The following tables present the Company’s carrying amounts related to the unconsolidated VIEs at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The tables also present the Company’s maximum exposure to loss resulting from its involvement with these VIEs. The maximum exposure to loss represents the carrying amount of the Company’s involvement plus any legally binding unfunded commitments in the unlikely event that all of the assets in the VIEs become worthless. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Company had noncash increases in unfunded commitments on LIHC investments of $82 million and $45 million, respectively, included within other liabilities.

LIHC Investments
The Company makes investments in partnerships and funds formed by third parties. The primary purpose of the partnerships and funds is to invest in low-income housing units and distribute tax credits and tax benefits associated with the underlying properties to investors. The Company is a limited partner investor and is allocated tax credits and deductions, but has no voting or other rights to direct the activities of the funds or partnerships, and therefore is not considered the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate these investments.
The following table presents the impact of the unconsolidated LIHC investments on our consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Renewable Energy Investments
Through its subsidiaries, the Company makes equity investments in LLCs established by third party sponsors to operate and manage wind, solar, hydroelectric and cogeneration power plant projects. Power generated by the projects is sold to third parties through long-term purchase power agreements. As a limited investor member, the Company is allocated production tax credits and taxable income or losses associated with the projects. The Company has no voting or other rights to direct the significant activities of the LLCs, and therefore is not considered the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate these investments.
Other Investments
The Company has other investments in structures formed by third parties. The Company has no voting or other rights to direct the activities of the investments that would most significantly impact the entities’ performance, and therefore is not considered the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate these investments.
Note 6—Securities Financing Arrangements
The Company enters into repurchase agreements and securities lending agreements to facilitate customer match-book activity, cover short positions and fund the Company's trading inventory. The Company manages credit exposure from certain transactions by entering into master netting agreements and collateral arrangements with counterparties. The relevant agreements allow for the efficient closeout of the transaction, liquidation and set-off of collateral against the net amount owed by the counterparty following a default. Under these agreements and transactions, the Company either receives or provides collateral in the form of securities. In many cases, the Company is permitted to sell or repledge these securities held as collateral and use the securities to secure repurchase agreements or enter into securities lending transactions. In certain cases, the Company may agree for collateral to be posted to a third party custodian under a tri-party arrangement that enables the Company to take control of such collateral in the event of a counterparty default. Default events generally include, among other things, failure to pay, insolvency or bankruptcy of a counterparty. For additional information related to securities pledged and received as collateral, see Note 2 "Securities" to these Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following tables present the gross obligations for securities sold under agreements to repurchase and securities loaned by remaining contractual maturity and class of collateral pledged at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Note 6—Securities Financing Arrangements (Continued)
Offsetting Financial Assets and Liabilities
The Company primarily enters into derivative contracts, repurchase agreements and securities lending agreements with counterparties utilizing standard International Swaps and Derivatives Association Master Agreements and Credit Support Annex Agreements, Master Repurchase Agreements, and Master Securities Lending Agreements, respectively. These agreements generally establish the terms and conditions of the transactions, including a legal right to set-off amounts payable and receivable between the Company and a counterparty, regardless of whether or not such amounts have matured or have contingency features.

Note 9—Fair Value Measurement and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Valuation Methodologies
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., an exit price) in an orderly transaction between willing market participants at the measurement date. The Company has an established and documented process for determining fair value for financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. When available, quoted market prices are used to determine fair value. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon valuation techniques that use, where possible, current market-based or independently sourced parameters, such as yield curves, foreign exchange rates, credit spreads, commodity prices and implied volatilities. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure the financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments include amounts that reflect counterparty credit quality and that consider the Company's own creditworthiness in determining the fair value of its trading assets and liabilities. For additional information related to the valuation methodologies used for certain financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value, and information about the Company's valuation processes, see Note 11 "Fair Value Measurement and Fair Value of Financial Instruments" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Fair Value Hierarchy
In determining fair value, the Company maximizes the use of observable market inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market-derived or market-based information obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s estimate about market data. Based on the observability of the significant inputs used, the Company classifies its fair value measurements in accordance with the three-level hierarchy as defined by GAAP. This hierarchy is based on the quality, observability and reliability of the information used to determine fair value. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and out of Level 1, 2 and 3 as of the end of a reporting period. For additional information related to the fair value hierarchy, see Note 11 "Fair Value Measurement and Fair Value of Financial Instruments" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2018 Form 10-K.

Loss severity | 10.0 - 45.0 | 20.3 |
The direct bank purchase bonds generally use a return on equity valuation technique. This technique uses significant unobservable inputs such as market-required return on capital, probability of default and loss severity. Increases (decreases) in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a lower (higher) fair value measurement.
Fair Value Measurement on a Nonrecurring Basis
Certain assets may be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets are subject to fair value adjustments that result from the application of the lower of cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets. For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 that were still held on the consolidated balance sheet as of the respective periods ended, the following tables present the fair value of such assets by the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each fair value adjustment.

Note 10—Derivative Instruments and Other Financial Instruments Used For Hedging
The Company enters into certain derivative and other financial instruments primarily to assist customers with their risk management objectives and to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk. When entering into derivatives on behalf of customers, the Company generally acts as a financial intermediary by offsetting a significant portion of the market risk for these derivatives with third parties. The Company may also enter into derivatives for other risk management purposes. All derivative instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value.
Counterparty credit risk is inherent in derivative instruments. In order to reduce its exposure to counterparty credit risk, the Company utilizes credit approvals, limits, monitoring procedures and master netting and credit support annex agreements. Additionally, the Company considers counterparty credit quality and the creditworthiness of the Company in estimating the fair value of derivative instruments.
The table below presents the notional amounts and fair value amounts of the Company's derivative instruments reported on the consolidated balance sheets, segregated between derivative instruments designated and qualifying as hedging instruments and derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Asset and liability values are presented gross, excluding the impact of legally enforceable master netting and credit support annex agreements. The fair value of asset and liability derivatives designated and qualifying as hedging instruments and derivatives designated as other risk management are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively. The fair value of asset and liability trading derivatives are included in trading account assets and trading account liabilities, respectively.

We recognized net losses of $5 million and net gains of $2 million on other risk management derivatives for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and net losses of $28 million and $26 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, which are included in other noninterest income.
Derivatives Designated and Qualifying as Hedging Instruments
The Company uses interest rate derivatives to manage the financial impact on the Company from changes in market interest rates. These instruments are used to manage interest rate risk relating to specified groups of assets and liabilities, primarily LIBOR-based commercial loans and debt issuances. Derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are designated as either fair value or cash flow hedges.
Cash Flow Hedges
From time to time, the Company uses interest rate derivatives to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in the designated interest rate on LIBOR indexed loans, and to a lesser extent, to hedge interest rate risk on rollover debt.
64
Note 10—Derivative Instruments and Other Financial Instruments Used For Hedging (Continued)
The Company used interest rate derivatives with an aggregate notional amount of $10.8 billion at September 30, 2019 to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in the designated interest rates from variable rate loans. The Company used interest rate derivatives with an aggregate notional amount of $69 million at September 30, 2019 to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in the designated interest rate on LIBOR indexed short-term borrowings. At September 30, 2019, the weighted average remaining life of the active cash flow hedges was 2.8 years.
For cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of the hedging instruments is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows are recognized in net interest income. At September 30, 2019, the Company expects to reclassify approximately $74 million of losses from AOCI as a reduction to net interest income during the twelve months ending September 30, 2020. This amount could differ from amounts actually realized due to changes in interest rates, hedge terminations and the addition of other hedges subsequent to September 30, 2019.
The following table presents the amount and location of the net gains and losses recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and changes in stockholders' equity for derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Fair Value Hedges
The Company engaged in an interest rate hedging strategy in which one or more interest rate derivatives were associated with a specified interest bearing liability, in order to convert the liability from a fixed rate to a floating rate instrument. This strategy mitigated the changes in fair value of the hedged liability caused by changes in the designated interest rate, LIBOR.
Prior to 2019, for fair value hedges, any ineffectiveness was recognized in noninterest expense in the period in which it arose. The change in the fair value of the hedged item and the hedging instrument, to the extent completely effective, offset with no impact on earnings.

Offsetting Financial Assets and Liabilities
The Company primarily enters into derivative contracts with counterparties utilizing standard International Swaps and Derivatives Association Master Agreements and Credit Support Annex Agreements. These agreements generally establish the terms and conditions of the transactions, including a legal right to set-off amounts payable and receivable between the Company and a counterparty, regardless of whether or not such amounts have matured or have contingency features. For additional information related to offsetting of financial assets and liabilities, see Note 6 "Securities Financing Arrangements" to these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 13—Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees
The following table summarizes the Company's commitments.
(Dollars in millions) | September 30, 2019 | |||
Commitments to extend credit | $ | 37,999 | ||
Issued standby and commercial letters of credit | 4,348 | |||
Commitments to enter into forward-starting resale agreements | 1,441 | |||
Other commitments | 483 |
Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to a customer provided there are no violations of any condition established in the contract. Commitments have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require maintenance of compensatory balances. Since many of the commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash flow requirements.
Standby and commercial letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Standby letters of credit are generally contingent upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party, while commercial letters of credit are issued specifically to facilitate foreign or domestic trade transactions. The majority of these types of commitments have terms of 1 year or less. As of September 30, 2019, the carrying amount of the Company's standby and commercial letters of credit totaled $3 million. Estimated exposure to loss related to
70
these commitments is covered by the allowance for losses on unfunded commitments. The carrying amounts of the standby and commercial letters of credit and the allowance for losses on unfunded credit commitments are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.
The credit risk involved in issuing loan commitments and standby and commercial letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers and is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. Collateral may be obtained based on management's credit assessment of the customer.
Other commitments include collateralized financing activities, commitments to fund principal investments, other securities, and residual value guarantees.
Principal investments include direct investments in private and public companies. The Company issues commitments to provide equity and mezzanine capital financing to private and public companies through direct investments. The timing of future cash requirements to fund such commitments is generally dependent on the investment cycle. This cycle, the period over which privately held companies are funded by private equity investors and ultimately sold, merged, or taken public through an initial offering, can vary based on overall market conditions as well as the nature and type of industry in which the companies operate.
The Company occasionally enters into financial guarantee contracts where a premium is received from another financial institution counterparty to guarantee a portion of the credit risk on interest rate swap contracts entered into between the financial institution and its customer. The Company becomes liable to pay the financial institution only if the financial institution is unable to collect amounts owed to them by their customer. As of September 30, 2019, the current exposure to loss under these contracts totaled $31 million, and the maximum potential exposure to loss in the future was estimated at $47 million.
The Company is subject to various pending and threatened legal actions that arise in the normal course of business. The Company maintains liabilities for losses from legal actions that are recorded when they are determined to be both probable in their occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. Management believes the disposition of all claims currently pending, including potential losses from claims that may exceed the liabilities recorded, and claims for loss contingencies that are considered reasonably possible to occur, will not have a material effect, either individually or in the aggregate, on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Note 14—Business Segments
The Company has four reportable segments: Regional Bank, Global Corporate & Investment Banking - U.S. (previously U.S. Wholesale & Investment Banking), Transaction Banking, and MUSA. The Company uses various management accounting methodologies to measure the performance of its segments. Unlike GAAP, there is no standardized or authoritative guidance for management accounting. Consequently, reported results are not necessarily comparable with those presented by other companies and they are not necessarily indicative of the results that would be reported by the business units if they were separate economic entities.
Methodologies that are applied to the measurement of segment profitability, which are enhanced from time to time, include a funds transfer pricing system, an activity-based costing methodology, other indirect costs and a methodology to allocate the provision for credit losses. In the second quarter of 2018, the Company began measuring the performance of its business segments by reporting revenues and expenses from products and services sold entirely within the business segment that manages the customer relationship. The Company previously applied a “market view” perspective in measuring the business segments, which reported revenues and expenses from products and services sold in both the business segment that provided the product and the business segment that managed the customer relationship. Prior period results have been revised to conform to the current period presentation.
The funds transfer pricing system assigns a cost of funds or a credit for funds to assets or liabilities based on their type, maturity or repricing characteristics. A segment receives a credit from Corporate Treasury for its funding sources. Conversely, a segment is assigned a charge by Corporate Treasury to fund its assets. Certain indirect costs, such as operations and technology expense, are allocated to the segments based on an activity-based costing methodology. Other indirect costs, such as corporate overhead, are allocated to the
71
segments based on internal surveys and metrics that serve as proxies for estimated usage. During the normal course of business, the Company occasionally changes or updates its management accounting methodologies or organizational structure. Certain non-bank subsidiaries, including MUSA, are reported based on their GAAP results.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to various pending and threatened legal actions that arise in the normal course of business. We maintain liabilities for losses from legal actions that are recorded when they are determined to be both probable in their occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. We believe the disposition of all claims currently pending, including potential losses from claims that may exceed the liabilities recorded, and claims for loss contingencies that are considered reasonably possible to occur, will not have a material effect, either individually or in the aggregate, on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
For a discussion of risk factors relating to our business, please refer to Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our 2018 Form 10-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, in addition to the following information.
Industry Factors
Fluctuations in interest rates on deposits or other funding sources could adversely affect our net interest margin
Changes in market interest rates on deposits or other funding sources, including changes in the relationship between short-term and long-term market interest rates or between different interest rate indices, can impact, and has in past years impacted, our net interest margin (that is, the difference between the interest rates we charge on interest earning assets, such as loans, and the interest rates we pay on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits or other borrowings). This impact could result in a decrease in our interest income relative to interest expense. Increases in interest rates may also adversely impact the value of our investment securities portfolio and the trading portfolio of MUSA and could also adversely impact loan performance by making it more difficult for borrowers with adjustable rate loans to service their debts. For several years after the 2008 recession, the Federal Reserve’s highly accommodative monetary policies (including a very low federal funds rate and substantial purchases of long-term U.S. Treasury and agency securities) placed downward pressure on the net interest margins of U.S. banks, including MUB. The Federal Reserve continued to gradually raise interest rates from late 2016 through 2018 and gradually reduce its historically high $4.5 trillion balance sheet until the third quarter of 2019 when the Federal Reserve again began to lower interest rates. The impact of these measures on the U.S. economy and financial markets cannot be predicted with certainty at this time. For additional information, see “The effects of changes or increases in, or supervisory enforcement of, banking, securities, competition or other laws and regulations or governmental fiscal, monetary, or tax policies could adversely affect us or make strategic planning more difficult” in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our 2018 Form 10-K. For additional information, see Part I, Item 1. "Business - Supervision and Regulation - Principal Federal Banking Regulatory Agencies" in our 2018 Form 10-K.
MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s and Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group’s credit ratings and financial or regulatory condition could adversely affect our operations
A substantial part of our operations has been historically funded independently of MUFG Bank, Ltd. and MUFG and we believe our business is not necessarily closely related to the business or outlook of MUFG Bank, Ltd. or MUFG. However, the Federal Reserve finalized rules imposing new TLAC requirements on GSIBs with operations in the U.S. such as MUFG, in December 2016. As a result, although we make an effort to diversify our sources of liquidity, we are required to maintain a minimum of TLAC-eligible debt because of our affiliation with MUFG Bank, Ltd. If MUFG Bank, Ltd. and MUFG’s credit ratings, financial condition or business prospects were to decline, this could adversely affect our credit rating or harm our reputation or perceived creditworthiness. For additional information, see Part II, Item 7. “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Risk Management - Liquidity Risk Management” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
MUFG Bank, Ltd. and MUFG are also subject to regulatory oversight, review and supervisory action (which can include fines or penalties) by Japanese, U.S. and other regulatory authorities. Our business operations and expansion plans could be negatively affected by regulatory concerns or supervisory action any such authority might take against MUFG Bank, Ltd. or MUFG. For example, in connection with its annual Bank Secrecy Act and Anti-Money Laundering (BSA/AML) and Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) examination of MUFG Bank, Ltd.’s U.S. based branches, the OCC recently imposed a public enforcement action upon MUFG Bank
76
Ltd.’s New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago branches. The enforcement action relates to the BSA/AML portion of the examination, is in the form of a consent order and requires MUFG Bank Ltd. and its U.S. branches to implement various remedial measures to address the deficiencies found in the examination, including the adoption of a comprehensive action plan satisfactory to the OCC, implementation of measures to ensure effective compliance management and qualified staffing, the adoption of comprehensive BSA/AML risk assessment policies and procedures and other remedial actions. MUB is not a party to the consent order.
Similarly, in June 2013, MUFG Bank, Ltd. entered into a consent agreement with the NY DFS (its former NY regulator) under which it made a civil monetary payment of $250 million to resolve issues relating to the clearing of certain U.S. dollar payments that were routed through its New York branch office from 2002 to 2007. In November 2014, MUFG Bank, Ltd. entered into another consent agreement with the NY DFS under which it made a civil monetary payment of $315 million to resolve issues relating to instructions given to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and the disclosures made to the NY DFS in connection with MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s 2007 and 2008 voluntary investigation of MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s U.S. dollar clearing activity associated with countries or parties subject to U.S. economic sanctions. Under the terms of this agreement with the NY DFS, MUFG Bank, Ltd. agreed to take certain additional remedial actions. These remediation efforts are ongoing. In November 2017, MUFG Bank, Ltd. applied to the OCC to convert its state-licensed branches and agencies in the U.S. to federal branches and agencies and the OCC approved those conversion applications. As a result, these branches and agencies are now supervised by the OCC and are no longer supervised by state regulatory authorities. As a condition of the OCC’s approval of the conversion applications, the OCC required MUFG Bank, Ltd.’s primary New York branch to enter into a consent order with the OCC that supersedes and contains nearly identical substantive requirements as the 2013 and 2014 NY DFS consent agreements. MUFG Bank, Ltd.’s remediation efforts under the OCC consent order are ongoing. The OCC and MUFG Bank, Ltd. have established an ongoing regulatory relationship and the nature of that relationship will continue to evolve over time.
Immediately following the OCC’s approval of the conversion applications, the NY DFS issued an order which, among other things, asserted that the NY DFS continued to have regulatory authority over MUFG Bank, Ltd. MUFG Bank filed suit on November 8, 2017, captioned The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. v. Maria Vullo, 17-cv-08691, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, seeking a declaration that the NY DFS had no such continuing authority over MUFG Bank, Ltd. In response, DFS filed counterclaims against MUFG Bank, Ltd. In June 2019, MUFG Bank, Ltd. entered into a settlement with the NY DFS to resolve this litigation. Under the terms of the settlement, the NY DFS has released all of its claims against MUFG Bank, Ltd. and will not challenge the validity of the licenses issued by the OCC to MUFG Bank Ltd. In return, and in consideration of the impact of prolonged litigation, MUFG Bank Ltd. has released all of its claims against the NY DFS and agreed to make a $33 million settlement payment. This settlement resolves the pending federal civil litigation in its entirety and does not constitute a regulatory order or involve a monetary penalty.
MUFG Bank, Ltd. has received requests and subpoenas for information from government agencies in some jurisdictions, including the United States, Europe and Asia, which are or were conducting investigations into past submissions made by panel members, including MUFG Bank, Ltd., to the bodies that set various interbank offered rates. MUFG Bank, Ltd. is cooperating with these investigations and has completed all internal investigations. MUB is not a member of any of these panels or involved in any such investigations. In addition, MUFG Bank, Ltd. and other panel members have been named as defendants in a number of civil lawsuits, including putative class actions, in the United States relating to similar matters including the trading of financial instruments, the prices of which can be affected by interbank offered rates. MUFG Bank, Ltd. has also been named as a defendant in a number of civil lawsuits, including putative class actions, in the United States and Canada alleging foreign exchange market misconduct. While certain of these lawsuits have been settled without any admission of wrongdoing and there have been various procedural and potentially substantive developments in other pending cases, it is currently not possible for us to predict the scope and ultimate outcome of these investigations or lawsuits, including any possible effect on us as an affiliate of MUFG.
The replacement of LIBOR could adversely impact our business and results of operations, and the value of certain financial instruments
In July 2017, the Chief Executive of the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the process of setting LIBOR, announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. There are ongoing global efforts to establish alternatives to interbank offered rates (such as LIBOR). However, there is uncertainty regarding the scope of the ultimate acceptance of alternative
77
reference rates, and the potential impact on rates and pricing and assets, liabilities and results of operations. If another reference rate does not achieve widespread acceptance as an alternative to LIBOR, there likely will be disruption in the financial markets which rely on the availability of a broadly accepted reference rate, and volatility in the pricing of securities, derivatives and other instruments, which could adversely affect the Company’s businesses and results of operations.
The replacement of LIBOR creates a broad range of risks and challenges (including financial, operational, legal, reputational, compliance and market risks) for the banking industry and could adversely impact our businesses and results of operations, and the value of certain financial instruments originated or held by the Company that use LIBOR as a reference rate. LIBOR is used as a reference rate for many of our transactions, including interest rate swap agreements and other contracts used for hedging and trading account purposes, loans to commercial customers and consumers (including mortgage loans and other loans), and long term borrowings, which means that it is the base on which relevant interest rates are determined. The risks and challenges that may be created by the replacement of LIBOR will become clearer as replacement alternatives are developed.
There are ongoing efforts to establish an alternative reference rate. The Secured Overnight Financing Rate (or SOFR) is considered the most likely alternative reference rate suitable for replacing LIBOR, but issues remain with respect to its implementation. As a result, the scope of its ultimate acceptance and the impact on rates, pricing and the ability to manage risk, including through derivatives, remain uncertain. No other alternative rate is currently under wide consideration.
Even if SOFR or another reference rate ultimately replaces LIBOR, risks and challenges will remain for us with respect to outstanding loans, derivatives or other instruments using LIBOR, which will need to be transitioned to a new reference rate that is unlikely to exactly mimic, or produce the economic equivalent of, LIBOR. Risks related to transitioning instruments to a new reference rate or to how LIBOR is calculated and its availability are likely to vary by asset class and contract and will require considerable effort and expense to renegotiate contracts for outstanding financial assets and liabilities and include impacts on the yield on loans or securities held by us, amounts paid on securities we have issued, or amounts received and paid on derivative instruments we have entered into and increase the risk of litigation.
In addition, prior to LIBOR’s cessation, instruments that continue to refer to LIBOR may be impacted if there is a change in the availability or calculation of LIBOR. While we expect LIBOR to continue to be available in substantially its current form until the end of 2021, it is possible that LIBOR quotes will become unavailable prior to that point and that it may be discontinued. This could result, for example, if sufficient LIBOR panel banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. Discontinuation of LIBOR prior to that time may cause significant disruption to financial markets and have adverse consequences for market participants.
The value of loans, securities, or derivative instruments tied to LIBOR, the trading market for LIBOR-based securities and the Company’s risk exposures could also be impacted upon LIBOR’s discontinuance or if it is limited. If LIBOR becomes unavailable earlier than the end of 2021, the risks and consequences associated with transitioning to an alternative reference rate are likely to be accelerated and magnified due, in part, to the shorter time available for preparing for the transition.
The replacement of LIBOR may adversely affect the Company’s revenue and expenses associated with financial instruments tied to LIBOR, and the value of those financial instruments, and may have adverse tax or accounting impacts, and result in compliance, legal, operational and systems costs and risks, which, in turn, could adversely impact our businesses and results of operations.
Company Factors
Adverse California economic conditions could adversely affect our business
At times in past years, economic conditions in California have been subject to various challenges, including significant deterioration in the residential real estate sector and the California state government’s budgetary and fiscal difficulties. While California home prices and the California economy in general have experienced a recovery in recent years, there can be no assurance that the recovery will continue. Recent
78
growth in home prices in some California markets may be unsustainable relative to market fundamentals and home price declines may occur.
In addition, the State of California has experienced budget shortfalls or deficits that have led to protracted negotiations between the Governor and the State Legislature over how to address the budget gap. The California electorate approved in the November 2012 general elections certain increases in the rate of income taxation in California and California’s budgetary situation has improved considerably (with a budget surplus being forecast for the coming year by the nonpartisan legislative analyst). However, there can be no assurance that the state’s fiscal and budgetary challenges will not recur. Also, municipalities and other governmental units within California have experienced budgetary difficulties and several California municipalities have filed for protection under the Bankruptcy Code. As a result, concerns also have arisen regarding the outlook for the governmental obligations of California municipalities and other governmental units.
A substantial majority of our assets, deposits and interest and fee income is generated in California. As a result, poor economic conditions in California may cause us to incur losses associated with higher default rates and decreased collateral values in our loan portfolio. If the budgetary and fiscal difficulties of the California state government and California municipalities and other governmental units were to recur or economic conditions in California decline, we expect that our level of problem assets could increase and our prospects for growth could be impaired. For approximately the past six years, California experienced various episodes of severe drought conditions. While rainfall levels have improved, there can be no assurance that the drought will not return with consequent difficulties for the California economy, particularly in the agricultural sector. The long-run impact of this and other measures in response to the drought on the California economy cannot be predicted.
Wildfires have occurred and continue to occur in a number of California counties where the Bank has branches and does business. These fires have resulted in numerous fatalities and injuries and substantial property damage to homes, businesses and infrastructure in affected communities. California and other Western states where the Bank does business have been the subject of other major wildfires or natural disasters, including mudslides, flooding and seismic events. In 2019, Pacific Gas and Electric Company and other California electric utilities instituted a program of public safety power outages when weather conditions and fire danger warranted. It can be expected that these events will continue to occur from time to time in the areas served by the Bank, and these natural disasters may adversely affect the Bank’s business and that of its customers.
