Schedule RC - Balance Sheet
Item No. Caption and Instructions
8 Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and associated companies. Report the
amount of the bank's investments in subsidiaries that have not been consolidated; associated
companies; and corporate joint ventures, unincorporated joint ventures, general partnerships,
and limited partnerships over which the bank exercises significant influence (collectively
referred to as "investees"), excluding those that represent direct and indirect investments in
real estate venture (which are to be reported in Schedule RC, item 9). Include loans and
advances to investees and holdings of their bonds, notes, and debentures.
Investments in investees shall be reported using the equity method of accounting. Under the
equity method the carrying value of the bank's investment in an investee is originally recorded
at cost but is adjusted periodically to record as income the bank's proportionate share of the
investee's earnings or losses and decreased by the amount of any cash dividends or similar
distributions received from the investee. For purposes of these reports, the date through
which the carrying value of the bank's investment in an investee has been adjusted should, to
the extent practicable, match the report date of the Report of Condition, but in no case differ
by more than 93 days from the report date.
Unconsolidated subsidiaries include those majority-owned subsidiaries that do not meet the
significance standards for required consolidation that the bank chooses not to consolidate
under the optional consolidation provisions. Refer to the General Instructions section of this
book for a detailed discussion of consolidation. See also the Glossary entry for
"subsidiaries."
9 Direct and indirect investments in real estate ventures. Report the amount of the bank's
direct and indirect investments in real estate ventures.
limits the authority of national banks to hold real estate. State member
banks are not authorized to invest in real estate except with the prior approval of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System under Federal Reserve Regulation H (12 CFR
NOTE: 12 USC 29
Part 208). In certain states, nonmember banks may invest in real estate.
Include as direct and indirect investments in real estate ventures:
(1) Any real estate acquired, directly or indirectly, by the bank or a consolidated subsidiary
and held for development, resale, or other investment purposes. (Do not include real
estate acquired in any manner for debts previously contracted, including, but not limited
to, real estate acquired through foreclosure or acquired by deed in lieu of foreclosure.
Report such real estate in Schedule RC-M, item 3.)
(2) Real estate acquisition, development, or construction (ADC) arrangements which are
accounted for as direct investments in real estate or real estate joint ventures in
accordance with guidance prepared by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA) in Notices to Practitioners issued in November 1983, November
1984, and February 1986.

Caption and Instructions
(3) Real estate acquired and held for investment by the bank or a consolidated subsidiary
that has been sold under contract and accounted for under the deposit method of
accounting in accordance with FASB Statement No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real
Estate. Under this method, the seller does not record notes receivable, but continues to
report the real estate and any related existing debt on its balance sheet. The deposit
method is used when a sale has not been consummated and is commonly used when
recovery of the carrying value of the property is not reasonably assured. If the full
accrual, installment, cost recovery, reduced profit, or percentage-of-completion method of
accounting under FASB Statement No. 66 is being used to account for the sale, the
receivable resulting from the sale of the real estate should be reported as a loan in
Schedule RC-C and any gain on the sale should be recognized in accordance with
FASB Statement No. 66.
(4) Any other loans secured by real estate and advanced for real estate acquisition,
development, or investment purposes if the reporting bank in substance has virtually the
same risks and potential rewards as an investor in the borrower's real estate venture.
(5) Investments in subsidiaries that have not been consolidated; associated companies; and
corporate joint ventures, unincorporated joint ventures, general partnerships, and limited
partnerships over which the bank exercises significant influence (collectively referred to
as "investees") that are primarily engaged in the holding of real estate for development,
resale, or other investment purposes. Investments by the bank in these investees may
be in the form of common or preferred stock, partnership interests, loans or other
advances, bonds, notes, or debentures. Such investments shall be reported using the
equity method of accounting. For further information on the equity method, see the
instruction to Schedule RC, item 8, above.
(6) Investments in corporate joint ventures, unincorporated joint ventures, and general or
limited partnerships that are primarily engaged in the holding of real estate for
development, resale, or other investment purposes and over which the bank does not
exercise significant influence.

5.b
Structured financial products. Report in the appropriate columns of the appropriate
subitems the amortized cost and fair value of all structured financial products not held for
trading according to whether the product is a cash, synthetic, or hybrid instrument.
Structured financial products generally convert a pool of assets (such as whole loans,
securitized assets, and bonds) and other exposures (such as derivatives) into products that
are tradable capital market debt instruments. Some of the more complex financial product
structures mix asset classes in order to create investment products that diversify risk. One of

Schedule RC-L - Derivatives and Off-Balance Sheet Items
Item No. Caption and Instructions
7 Credit derivatives. In general, credit derivatives are arrangements that allow one party
(the "protection purchaser" or "beneficiary") to transfer the credit risk of a "reference asset"
or "reference entity" to another party (the "protection seller" or "guarantor"). Banks should
report the notional amounts of credit derivatives by type of instrument in Schedule RC-L,
items 7 .a.(1) through 7 .a.(4). Banks should report the gross positive and negative fair values
of all credit derivatives in Schedule RC-L, items 7.b.(1) and 7.b.(2). For both the notional
amounts and gross fair values, report credit derivatives for which the bank is the protection
seller in column A, "Sold Protection," and those on which the bank is the protection purchaser
in column B, "Purchased Protection." Banks should report the notional amounts of credit
derivatives by regulatory capital treatment in Schedule RC-L, items 7.c.(1 Ha) through
7.c.(2Hc). Banks should report the notional amounts of credit derivatives by remaining
maturity in Schedule RC-L, items 7.d.(1 Ha) through 7.d.(2)(b).
All credit derivative transactions within the consolidated bank should be reported on a net
basis, i.e., intrabank transactions should not be reported in this item. No other netting of
contracts is permitted for purposes of this item. Therefore, do not net the notional amounts or
fair values of: (1) credit derivatives with third parties on which the reporting bank is the
protection purchaser against credit derivatives with third parties on which the reporting bank
is the protection seller, or (2) contracts subject to bilateral netting agreements. The notional
amounts of credit derivatives should not be included in Schedule RC-L, items 12 through 14,
and the fair values of credit derivatives should not be included in Schedule RC-L, item 15.
7.a
Notional amounts. Report in the appropriate subitem and column the notional amount
(stated in U.S. dollars) of all credit derivatives. For tranched credit derivative transactions
that relate to an index, e.g., the Dow Jones CDX NA index, report as the notional amount the
dollar amount of the tranche upon which the reporting bank's credit derivative cash flows are
based.
7.a.(1)
Credit default swaps. Report in the appropriate column the notional amount of all credit
default swaps. A credit default swap is a contract in which a protection seller or guarantor (risk
taker), for a fee, agrees to reimburse a protection purchaser or beneficiary (risk hedger) for any
losses that occur due to a credit event on a particular entity, called the "reference entity." If
there is no credit default event (as defined by the derivative contract), then the protection seller
makes no payments to the protection purchaser and receives only the contractually specified
fee. Under standard industry definitions, a credit event is normally defined to include
bankruptcy, failure to pay, and restructuring. Other potential credit events include obligation
acceleration, obligation default, and repudiation/moratorium.
7.a.(2)
Total return swaps. Report in the appropriate column the notional amount of all total return
swaps. A total return swap transfers the total economic performance of a reference asset,
which includes all associated cash flows, as well as capital appreciation or depreciation. The
protection purchaser (beneficiary) receives a floating rate of interest and any depreciation on
the reference asset from the protection seller. The protection seller (guarantor) has the
opposite profile. The protection seller receives cash flows on the reference asset, plus any
appreciation, and it pays any depreciation to the protection purchaser, plus a floating interest
rate. A total return swap may terminate upon a default of the reference asset.

Item No. Caption and Instructions
7.a.(3) Credit options. Report in the appropriate column the notional amount of all credit options. A
credit option is a structure that allows investors to trade or hedge changes in the credit quality
of the reference asset. For example, in a credit spread option, the option writer (protection
seller or guarantor) assumes the obligation to purchase or sell the reference asset at a
specified "strike" spread leveL. The option purchaser (protection purchaser or beneficiary)
buys the right to sell the reference asset to, or purchase it from, the option writer at the strike
spread leveL.
7.a.(4) Other credit derivatives. Report in the appropriate column the notional amount of all other
credit derivatives. Other credit derivatives consist of any credit derivatives not reportable as
a credit default swap, a total return swap, or a credit option. Credit linked notes are cash
securities and should not be reported as other credit derivatives.
7.b Gross fair values. Report in the appropriate subitem and column the gross fair values of all
credit derivatives.
As defined in FASB Statement No. 157, fair value for an asset or liability is the price that
would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants (not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) in the asset's or
liability's principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date. For further
information, see the Glossary entry for "fair value." For purposes of this item, the reporting
bank should determine the fair value of its credit derivative contracts in the same manner that
it determines the fair value of these contracts for other financial reporting purposes.
7.b.(1) Gross positive fair value. Report in the appropriate column the total fair value of those
credit derivatives reported in Schedule RC-L, items 7.a.(1) through 7.a.(4), above, with
positive fair values.
7.b.(2) Gross negative fair value. Report in the appropriate column the total fair value of those
credit derivatives reported in Schedule RC-L, items 7.a.(1) through 7.a.(4), above, with
negative fair values. Report the total fair value as an absolute value; do not enclose the total
fair value in parentheses or use a minus (-) sign.
7.c Notional amount of all credit derivatives by regulatory capital treatment. Report in the
appropriate subitem the notional amount of all credit derivative contracts according to the
reporting bank's treatment of the derivative for regulatory capital purposes. Because each
subitem under item 7.c is mutually exclusive, each credit derivative contract should be
reported in only one subitem..
7.c.(1) Positions covered under the Market Risk Rule. For banks subject to the Market Risk
Rule, report in the appropriate subitem the notional amount of covered positions.
7.c.(1)(a) Sold protection. For those credit derivatives that are covered positions under the Market
Risk Rule, report the notional amount of credit derivative contracts where the bank is the
protection seller (guarantor).
7.c.(1 )(b) Purchased protection. For those credit derivatives that are covered positions under the
Market Risk Rule, report the notional amount of credit derivative contracts where the bank is
the protection purchaser (beneficiary).

7.c.(2)(a) Sold protection. Report the notional amount of credit derivative contracts where the
reporting bank is the protection seller (guarantor).
7.c.(2)(b) Purchased protection that is recognized as a guarantee for regulatory capital
purposes. Report the notional amount of credit derivative contracts where the bank is the
protection purchaser (beneficiary) and the protection is recognized as a guarantee for
regulatory capital purposes. The credit derivative contracts to be reported in this item are
limited to those providing purchased protection where an underlying position (usually an
asset of the bank) is being hedged by the protection and credit derivative contract meets the
criteria for recognition as a guarantee under the regulatory capital standards of the bank's
primary federal regulator.
7.c.(2)(c) Purchased protection that is not recognized as a guarantee for regulatory capital
purposes. Report the notional amount of credit derivative contracts where the bank is the
protection purchaser (beneficiary) and the protection is not recognized as a guarantee for
regulatory capital purposes. The credit derivative contracts to be reported in this item are
limited to those providing purchased protection where the protection is not being used to
hedge an underlying position or where the "hedging" credit derivative contract does not meet
the criteria for recognition as a guarantee under the regulatory capital standards of the bank's
primary federal regulator. These "naked" purchased protection positions sometimes arise
when a bank has sold the asset that was being hedged by the credit derivative contract while
retaining the credit derivative contract.
7.d Notional amounts by remaining maturity. Report in the appropriate subitem and column
the notional amount of all credit derivative contracts. Report notional amounts in the column
corresponding to the contract's remaining term to maturity from the report date. Remaining
maturities are to be reported as (1) one year or less in column A, (2) over one year through
five years in column B, or (3) over five years in column C.
7.d.(1) Sold credit protection. Report the notional amount of all credit derivative contracts where
the bank is the protection seller (guarantor).
7.d.(1)(a) Investment grade. Report the remaining maturities of credit derivative contracts where the
underlying reference asset is rated investment grade or, if not rated, is the equivalent of
investment grade under the bank's internal credit rating system.
7.d.(1)(b) Subinvestment grade. Report the remaining maturities of credit derivative contracts where
the underlying reference asset is rated below investment grade, i.e., subinvestment grade, or,
if not rated, is the equivalent of below investment grade under the bank's internal credit rating
system.
7.d.(2) Purchased protection. Report the notional amount of all credit derivative contracts where
the bank is the protection purchaser (beneficiary).
7.d.(2)(a) Investment grade. Report the remaining maturities of credit derivative contracts where the
underlying reference asset is rated investment grade or, if not rated, is the equivalent of
investment grade under the bank's internal credit rating system

16 Over-the-counter derivatives. Items 16.a and 16.b.(1) through (8) are to be completed only
by banks with total assets of $10 billion or more. Include all over-the-counter (OTC) interest
rate, foreign exchange, commodity, equity, and credit derivative contracts that are held for
trading and held for purposes other than trading.
Column Instructions for items 16.a and 16.b.(1) through (8):
Column A, Banks and Securities Firms: Banks include U.S. banks and foreign banks as
defined in the Glossary entry for "Banks, U.S. and Foreign." Securities firms include brokerdealers that are registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), firms
engaged in securities activities in the European Union (EU) that are subject to the EU's
Capital Adequacy Directive, and other firms engaged in securities activities.
Column B, Monoline Financial Guarantors: Monoline financial guarantors are companies
that are primarily engaged in the business of providing credit enhancement in the form of a
"guarantee" of payment of principal and interest to bond issuers when an issuer defaults. In
essence, these companies provide a back-up guarantee, which generally increases the bond
rating of debt issued by lower-rated borrowers, in exchange for insurance premiums.
Monoline financial guarantors provide guarantees on securities that range from municipal
bonds to structured financial products such as collateralized debt obligations (CDOs).
Column C, Hedge Funds: Hedge funds are generally privately-owned investment funds
with a limited range of investors. Hedge funds are not required to register with the SEC,
which provides them with an exemption in many jurisdictions from regulations governing short
selling, derivative contracts, leverage, fee structures, and the liquidity of investments in the
fund.
Column D, Sovereign Governments: Sovereign governments are the central governments
of foreign countries.
Column E, Corporations and All Other Counterparties: Corporations and all other
counterparties include all counterparties other than those included in columns A through D
above.

16.a Net current credit exposure. Report in the appropriate column the sum of the net current
credit exposures on OTC derivative contracts by type of counterparty. The sum of the net
current credit exposures reported in columns A through E for this item may not equal the
amount reported in Schedule RC-R, Memorandum item 1, "Current credit exposure across all
derivative contracts covered by the risk-based capital standards," because the amount
reported in Schedule RC-R, Memorandum item 1, excludes, for example, OTC derivatives
not covered by the risk-based capital standards. All transactions within the consolidated
bank should be reported on a net basis.
The current credit exposure (sometimes referred to as the replacement cost) is the fair value
of a derivative contract when that fair value is positive. The current credit exposure is zero
when the fair value is negative or zero. For purposes of this item, the net current credit
exposure to an individual counterparty should be derived as follows: Determine whether a
legally enforceable bilateral netting agreement is in place between the reporting bank and the
counterparty. If such an agreement is in place, the fair values of all applicable derivative
contracts with that counterparty that are included in the scope of the netting agreement are
netted to a single amount, which may be positive, negative, or zero.
16.b
Fair value of collateraL. Report in the appropriate subitem and column the total fair value of
the collateral pledged by counterparties to secure OTC derivative transactions by type of
counterparty, even if the fair value of the collateral as of the report date exceeds the net
current credit exposure to a counterparty or the current credit exposure to a counterparty is
zero. Include the fair value of collateral in the reporting bank's possession and collateral held
on the bank's behalf by third party custodians.
16.b.(1)
Cash - U.S. dollar. Report in the appropriate counterparty column the total of all cash
denominated in U.S. dollars held on deposit in the bank or by third party custodians on behalf
of the bank that provide protection to the bank against counterparty risk on OTC derivatives.
16.b.(2)
Cash - Other currencies. Report in the appropriate counterparty column in U.S. dollar
equivalents the total of all cash denominated in non-U.S. currency held on deposit in the bank
or by third party custodians on behalf of the bank that provide protection to the bank against
counterparty risk on OTC derivatives.
16.b.(3)
U.S. Treasury securities. Report in the appropriate counterparty column the fair value of
U.S. Treasury securities held directly by the bank or by third party custodians on behalf of the
bank that provide protection to the bank against counterparty risk on OTC derivatives.

on OTC derivatives.
16.b.(5)
Corporate bonds. Report in the appropriate counterparty column the fair value of corporate
bonds held directly by the bank or by third party custodians on behalf of the bank that provide
protection to the bank against counterparty risk on OTC derivatives.

3 Other real estate owned. Report in the appropriate subitem the net book value of all real
estate other than (1) bank premises owned or controlled by the bank and its consolidated
subsidiaries (which should be reported in Schedule RC, item 6) and (2) direct and indirect
investments in real estate ventures (which should be reported in Schedule RC, item 9). Do
not deduct mortgages or other liens on such property (report mortgages or other liens in
Schedule RC, item 16, "Other borrowed money"). Amounts should be reported net of any
applicable valuation allowances.
Include as all other real estate owned:
(1) Foreclosed real estate, i.e.,
(a) Real estate acquired in any manner for debts previously contracted (including, but
not limited to, real estate acquired through foreclosure and real estate acquired by
deed in lieu of foreclosure), even if the bank has not yet received title to the property.
(b) Real estate collateral underlying a loan when the bank has obtained physical
possession of the collateral, regardless of whether formal foreclosure proceedings
have been instituted against the borrower.
Foreclosed real estate received in full or partial satisfaction of a loan should be recorded
at the fair value less cost to sell of the property at the time of foreclosure. This amount
becomes the "cost" of the foreclosed real estate. When foreclosed real estate is received
in full satisfaction of a loan, the amount, if any, by which the recorded amount of the loan
exceeds the fair value less cost to sell of the property is a loss which must be charged to
the allowance for loan and lease losses at the time of foreclosure. The amount of any
senior debt (principal and accrued interest) to which foreclosed real estate is subject at
the time of foreclosure must be reported as a liability in Schedule RC, item 16, "Other
borrowed money."
After foreclosure, each foreclosed real estate asset must be carried at the lower of (1) the
fair value of the asset minus the estimated costs to sell the asset or (2) the cost of the
asset (as defined in the preceding paragraph). This determination must be made on an
asset-by-asset basis. If the fair value of a foreclosed real estate asset minus the
estimated costs to sell the asset is less than the asset's cost, the deficiency must be
recognized as a valuation allowance against the asset which is created through a charge

to expense. The valuation allowance should thereafter be increased or decreased (but
not below zero) through charges or credits to expense for changes in the asset's fair
value or estimated selling costs. (For further information, see the Glossary entries for
"foreclosed assets" and "troubled debt restructurings.")
(2) Foreclosed real estate backing mortgage loans insured by the Federal Housing
Administration (FHA) or the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) or guaranteed by the
Veterans Administration (VA) that back Government National Mortgage Association
(GNMA) securities, i.e., "GNMA loans."
(3) Property originally acquired for future expansion but no longer intended to be used for
that purpose.
(4) Foreclosed real estate sold under contract and accounted for under the deposit method
of accounting in accordance with FASB Statement No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real
Estate. Under this method, the seller does not record notes receivable, but continues to
report the real estate and any related existing debt on its balance sheet. The deposit
method is used when a sale has not been consummated and is commonly used when
recovery of the carrying value of the property is not reasonably assured. If the full
accrual, installment, cost recovery, reduced profit, or percentage-of-completion method of
accounting under FASB Statement No. 66 is being used to account for the sale, the
receivable resulting from the sale of the foreclosed real estate should be reported as a
loan in Schedule RC-C and any gain on the sale should be recognized in accordance
with FASB Statement No. 66. For further information, see the Glossary entry for
"foreclosed assets."
Property formerly but no longer used for banking may be reported either in this item as "AII
other real estate owned" or in Schedule RC, item 6, as "Premises and fixed assets."
NOTE: Items 3.b.(1) through 3.b.(6) and item 3.c of Schedule RC-M on the FFIEC 041 report will be
renumbered as items 3.a through 3.g. Items 3.b.(1) though 3.b.(7) and item 3.c of Schedule RC-M on the

SCHEDULE RC.Q - ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR
VALUE ON A RECURRING BASIS
General Instructions
Schedule RC-Q is to be completed by banks that: (1) have total assets of $500 million or more as of the
beginning of their fiscal year, (2) have elected to report financial instruments or servicing assets and
liabiliies at fair value under a fair value option with changes in fair value recognized in earnings, or (3) are
required to complete Schedule RC-D, Trading Assets and Liabilities. Banks should report all assets and
liabilities that are measured at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least
annually).
Column Instructions
Column A. Total Fair Value Reported on Schedule RC
Report in Column A the total fair value, as defined by FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value
Measurements" (FAS 157), of those assets and liabilities reported on Schedule RC, Balance Sheet, that
the bank reports at fair value on a recurring basis.
Columns B through E. Fair Value Measurements and Netting Adjustments
For items reported in Column A, report in Columns C, D, and E the fair value amounts which fall in their
entirety in Levels 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value
measurement in its entirety falls should be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to

the fair value measurement in its entirety. Thus, for example, if the fair value of an asset or liability has
elements of both Level 2 and Level 3 measurement inputs, report the entire fair value of the asset or
liability in Column D or Column E based on the lowest level measurement input with the most significance
to the fair value of the asset or liability in its entirety as described in FAS 157. For assets and liabilities
that the bank has netted under legally enforceable master netting agreements in accordance with FASB
Interpretation No. 39, "Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts," or FASB Interpretation
No. 41, "Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Agreements,"
report the gross amounts in Columns C, D, and E and the related netting adjustment in Column B. For
more information on Level 1, 2, and 3 measurement inputs, see the Glossary entry for "fair value."

Derivatives and Off-Balance Sheet Items
(Page RC-R-22c of the Call Report instructions)
Banks should refer to the supervisory guidance issued by their primary federal supervisory authority for
information on how they should treat credit derivatives for risk-based capital purposes and, as a
consequence, for purposes of completing the section of Schedule RC-R for derivatives and off-balance
sheet items.
Treatment of Liquidity Facilities for Asset-Backed Commercial Paper Programs - Banks that provide
liquidity facilities to asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP) programs, whether or not they are the
program sponsor, must report these facilities in the following manner in Schedule RC-R (unless the bank
is a sponsor and has chosen to consolidate the ABCP program assets onto its balance sheet for riskbased capital purposes).1 The full amount of the unused portion of an eligible liquidity facility with an
original maturity exceeding one year should be reported in item 53.a, column A. The full amount of the
unused portion of an eligible liquidity facility with an original maturity of one year or less should be
reported in item 53.b, column A. For ineligible liquidity facilities (both direct credit substitutes and recourse
obligations), banks should report the full amount of the unused portion of the facility in Schedule RC-R,
item 51, column A.

cause) at any time by the bank, provided a separate credit decision is made before each
drawing, have a zero percent conversion factor. The unused portion of such commitments
should be excluded from this item and from item 53.b. "Original maturity" is defined as the
length of time between the date a commitment is issued and the date of maturity, or the
earliest date on which the bank (1) is scheduled to (and as a normal practice actually does)
review the facility to determine whether or not it should be extended and (2) can
unconditionally cancel the commitment. Also include in column A all revolving underwriting
facilities (RUFs) and note issuance facilities (NIFs), regardless of maturity.
In the case of consumer home equity or mortgage lines of credit secured by liens on
1-4 family residential properties, a bank is deemed able to unconditionally cancel the
commitment if, at its option, it can prohibit additional extensions of credit, reduce the credit
line, and terminate the commitment to the full extent permitted by relevant federal law.
Retail credit cards and related plans, including overdraft checking plans and overdraft
protection programs, are defined to be short-term commitments that should be converted at
zero percent and excluded from this item 53.a if the bank has the unconditional right to
cancel the line of credit at any time in accordance with applicable law.
For commitments providing for increases in the dollar amount of the commitment, the amount
to be converted to an on-balance sheet credit equivalent amount and risk weighted is the
maximum dollar amount that the bank is obligated to advance at any time during the life of
the commitment. This includes seasonal commitments where the dollar amount of the
commitment increases during the customer's peak business period. In addition, this riskbased capital treatment applies to long-term commitments that contain short-term options
which, for a fee, allow the customer to increase the dollar amount of the commitment. Until
the short-term option has expired, the reporting bank must convert and risk weight the
amount which it is obligated to lend if the option is exercised. After the expiration of a
short-term option which has not been exercised, the unused portion of the original amount of
the commitment is to be used in the credit conversion process.

1 Current credit exposure across all derivative contracts covered by the risk-based
capital standards. Report the total current credit exposure amount for all interest rate,
foreign exchange, commodity, and equity derivative contracts covered by the risk-based
capital standards after considering applicable legally enforceable bilateral netting
agreements. Banks that are subject to the market risk capital guidelines should exclude all
covered positions subject to these guidelines, except for foreign exchange derivatives that
are outside of the trading account and all over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives. Foreign
exchange derivatives that are outside of the trading account and all OTC derivatives continue
to have a counterparty credit risk capital charge and, therefore, a current credit exposure
amount for these derivatives should be reported in this item.
Include the current credit exposure arising from credit derivative contracts where the bank is
the protection purchaser (beneficiary) and the credit derivative contract is either (a) defined
as a covered position under the market risk rule or (b) not defined as a covered position
under the market risk rule and is not recognized as a guarantee for risk-based capital
purposes.
The following types of derivative contracts are not covered by the risk-based capital
standards:
(1) interest rate, foreign exchange, equity, commodity and other derivative contracts traded
on exchanges that require daily payment of variation margin,
(2) foreign exchange contracts with an original maturity of fourteen calendar days or less,
and
(3) all written option contracts except for those that are, in substance, financial guarantees.
Purchased options held by the reporting bank that are traded on an exchange are covered by
the risk-based capital standards unless such options are subject to a daily variation margin.
Variation margin is defined as the gain or loss on open positions, calculated by marking to
market at the end of each trading day. Such gain or loss is credited or debited by the
clearing house to each clearing member's account, and by members to their customers'
accounts.
If a written option contract acts as a financial guarantee, then it will be treated as a direct
credit substitute for risk-based capital purposes and the notional amount of the option should
be included in Schedule RC-R, item 52, column A, as an "other off-balance sheet liabiliy."
An example of such a contract occurs when the reporting bank writes a put option to a
second bank which has a loan to a third party. The strike price would be the equivalent of the
par value of the loan. If the credit quality of the loan deteriorates, thereby reducing the value
of the loan to the second bank, the reporting bank would be required by the second bank to
take the loan onto its books.
Current credit exposure (sometimes referred to as the replacement cost) is the fair value of a
contract when that fair value is positive. The current credit exposure is zero when the fair
value is negative or zero. Current credit exposure should be derived as follows: Determine
whether a legally enforceable bilateral netting agreement is in place between the reporting
bank and a counterparty. If such an agreement is in place, the fair values of all applicable

derivative contracts with that counterparty that are included in the netting agreement are
netted to a single amount. Next, for all other contracts covered by the risk-based capital
standards that have positive fair values, the total of the positive fair values is determined.
Then, report in this item the sum of (i) the net positive fair values of applicable derivative
contracts subject to legally enforceable bilateral netting agreements and (ii) the total positive
fair values of all other contracts covered by the risk-based capital standards. The current
credit exposure reported in this item is a component of the credit equivalent amount of
derivative contracts that is to be reported in Schedule RC-R, item 54, column B.
Consistent with the risk-based capital guidelines, if a bilateral netting agreement covers
off-balance sheet derivative contracts that are normally not covered by the risk-based capital
standards (e.g., foreign exchange contracts with an original maturity of 14 calendar days or
less and contracts traded on exchanges that require daily payment of variation margin), the
reporting bank may elect to consistently either include or exclude the fair values of all such
derivative contracts when determining the net current credit exposure for that agreement.
The definition of a legally enforceable bilateral netting agreement for purposes of this item is
the same as that set forth in the risk-based capital rules. These rules require a written
bilateral netting contract that creates a single legal obligation covering all included individual
contracts and that does not contain a walkaway clause. The bilateral netting agreement must
be supported by a written and reasoned legal opinion representing that an organization's
claim or obligation, in the event of a legal challenge, including one resulting from default,
insolvency, bankruptcy, or similar circumstances, would be found by the court and
administrative authorities of all relevant jurisdictions to be the net sum of all positive and
negative fair values of contracts included in the bilateral netting contract.
