Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

For a further discussion of the Firm’s valuation methodologies for assets, liabilities and lending-related commitments measured at fair value and the fair value hierarchy, see Note 3 on pages 170–187 of JPMorgan Chase’s 2010Annual Report.

During the first six months of 2011, no changes were made to the Firm’s valuation models that had, or were expected to have, a material impact on the Firm’s Consolidated Balance Sheets or results of operations.

The following table presents the assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, by major product category and fair value hierarchy.

(a) At June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, included total U.S. government-sponsored enterprise obligations of $124.0 billion and $137.3 billion respectively, which were predominantly mortgage-related.

(b) At June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, included within trading loans were $20.1 billion and $22.7 billion, respectively, of residential first-lien mortgages, and $2.4 billion and $2.6 billion, respectively, of commercial first-lien mortgages. Residential mortgage loans include conforming mortgage loans originated with the intent to sell to U.S. government agencies of $11.9 billion and $13.1 billion, respectively, and reverse mortgages of $3.9 billion and $4.0 billion, respectively.

(c) Physical commodities inventories are generally accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value.

(d) Balances reflect the reduction of securities owned (long positions) by the amount of securities sold but not yet purchased (short positions) when the long and short positions have identical Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures numbers (“CUSIPs”).

(e) As permitted under U.S. GAAP, the Firm has elected to net derivative receivables and derivative payables and the related cash collateral received and paid when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists. For purposes of the tables above, the Firm does not reduce derivative receivables and derivative payables balances for this netting adjustment, either within or across the levels of the fair value hierarchy, as such netting is not relevant to a presentation based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Therefore, the balances reported in the fair value hierarchy table are gross of any counterparty netting adjustments. However, if the Firm were to net such balances within level 3, the reduction in the level 3 derivative receivable and payable balances would be $13.5 billion and $12.7 billion at June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively; this is exclusive of the netting benefit associated with cash collateral, which would further reduce the level 3 balances.

(f) Private equity instruments represent investments within the Corporate/Private Equity line of business. The cost basis of the private equity investment portfolio totaled $9.6 billion and $10.0 billion at June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively.

(g) At June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, balances included investments valued at net asset values of $12.2 billion and $12.1 billion, respectively, of which $6.0 billion and $5.9 billion, respectively, were classified in level 1, $1.7 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively, in level 2, and $4.5 billion and $4.2 billion, respectively, in level 3.

(h) For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the transfers between levels 1, 2 and 3, were not significant

Changes in level 3 recurring fair value measurements

The following tables include a rollforward of the balance sheet amounts (including changes in fair value) for financial instruments classified by the Firm within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011and 2010. When a determination is made to classify a financial instrument within level 3, the determination is based on the significance of the unobservable parameters to the overall fair value measurement. However, level 3 financial instruments typically include, in addition to the unobservable or level 3 components, observable components (that is, components that are actively quoted and can be validated to external sources); accordingly, the gains and losses in the table below include changes in fair value due in part to observable factors that are part of the valuation methodology. Also, the Firm risk-manages the observable components of level 3 financial instruments using securities and derivative positions that are classified within level 1 or 2 of the fair value hierarchy; as these level 1 and level 2 risk management instruments are not included below, the gains or losses in the following tables do not reflect the effect of the Firm’s risk management activities related to such level 3 instruments.

Level 3 analysis

Level 3 assets at June 30, 2011, predominantly include derivative receivables, mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) held within the AFS securities portfolio, loans and asset-backed securities in the trading portfolio and private equity investments.

• Derivative receivables included $34.2 billion of interest rate, credit, foreign exchange, equity and commodity contracts classified within level 3 at June 30, 2011. Credit derivative receivables of $15.1 billion include $9.9 billion of structured credit derivatives with corporate debt underlying and $3.3 billion of credit default swaps on commercial mortgages where the risks are partially mitigated by similar and offsetting derivative payables. Interest rate derivative receivables of $5.9 billion include long-dated structured interest rate derivatives which are dependent on correlation. Equity derivative receivables of $5.2 billion principally include long-dated contracts where the volatility levels are unobservable. Foreign exchange derivative receivables of $4.6 billion include long-dated foreign exchange derivatives which are dependent on the correlation between foreign exchange and interest rates.

• Mortgage servicing rights represent the fair value of future cash flows for performing specified mortgage servicing activities for others (predominantly with respect to residential mortgage loans). For a further description of the MSR asset, the interest rate risk management and valuation methodology used for MSRs, including valuation assumptions and sensitivities, see Note 17 on pages 260–263 of JPMorgan Chase’s 2010Annual Report and Note 16 on pages 159–163 of this Form 10-Q.

• CLOs totaling $15.1 billion are securities backed by corporate loans held in the AFS securities portfolio. Substantially all of these securities are rated “AAA,” “AA” and “A” and had an average credit enhancement of 30%. Credit enhancement in CLOs is primarily in the form of subordination, which is a form of structural credit enhancement where realized losses associated with assets held by the issuing vehicle are allocated to the various tranches of securities issued by the vehicle considering their relative seniority. For further discussion, see Note 11 on pages 128–132 of this Form 10-Q.

• Trading loans totaling $11.7 billion included $5.7 billion of residential mortgage whole loans and commercial mortgage loans for which there is limited price transparency; and $3.9 billion of reverse mortgages for which the principal risk sensitivities are mortality risk and home prices. The fair value of the commercial and residential mortgage loans is estimated by projecting expected cash flows, considering relevant borrower-specific and market factors, and discounting those cash flows at a rate reflecting current market liquidity. Loans are partially hedged by level 2 instruments, including credit default swaps and interest rate derivatives, for which valuation inputs are observable and liquid.

Consolidated Balance Sheets changes

Level 3 assets (including assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis) were 5% of total Firm assets at June 30, 2011. The following describes significant changes to level 3 assets since December 31, 2010.

For the three months ended June 30, 2011

Level 3 assets were $109.8 billion at June 30, 2011, reflecting a decrease of $6.3 billion from the first quarter largely related to a:

• $4.4 billiondecrease in nonrecurring loans held-for-sale driven by sales in the loan portfolios;

For the six months ended June 30, 2011

Level 3 assets decreased by $4.9 billion in the first six months of 2011, due to the following:

• $3.0 billion net decrease in nonrecurring loans held-for-sale driven by sales in the loan portfolios;

• $1.4 billiondecrease in trading loans primarily due to asset sales

• $1.4 billion decrease in MSRs. For further discussion of the change, refer to Note 16 on pages 159–163 of this Form 10-Q.

• $1.6 billionincrease in asset-backed AFS securities, predominantly driven by purchases of new issuance CLOs;

Gains and Losses

Included in the tables for the three months ended June 30, 2011

• $960 million of losses on MSRs. For further discussion of the change, refer to Note 16 on pages 159–163 of this Form 10-Q.

Included in the tables for the three months ended June 30, 2010

• $2.0 billion of net gains on derivatives, largely driven by the widening of credit spreads

• $632 million in gains related to long-term structured note liabilities, largely driven by the volatility in the equity markets

• $3.6 billion of losses on MSRs predominantly due to declines in interest rates

Included in the tables for the six months ended June 30, 2011

• $1.7 billion gain in private equity, predominately driven by net increases in investment valuations and sales in the portfolio.

• $1.2 billion of net gains on derivatives, largely driven by increase in interest rate derivatives;

• $1.7 billion of losses on MSRs. For further discussion of the change, refer to Note 16 on pages 159–163 of this Form 10-Q

Included in the tables for the six months ended June 30, 2010

• $3.7 billion of losses on MSRs predominantly due to declines in interest rates

• $1.2 billion of gains in net derivatives receivables

• $1.0 billion of gains related to long-term structured note liabilities, primarily due to volatility in the equities markets

Credit adjustments

When determining the fair value of an instrument, it may be necessary to record a valuation adjustment to arrive at an exit price under U.S. GAAP.

(a) Fair value is typically estimated using a discounted cash flow model that incorporates the characteristics of the underlying loans (including principal, contractual interest rate and contractual fees) and other key inputs, including expected lifetime credit losses, interest rates, prepayment rates, and primary origination or secondary market spreads. For certain loans, the fair value is measured based upon the value of the underlying collateral. The difference between the estimated fair value and carrying value of a financial asset or liability is the result of the different methodologies used to determine fair value as compared with carrying value. For example, credit losses are estimated for a financial asset’s remaining life in a fair value calculation but are estimated for a loss emergence period in a loan loss reserve calculation; future loan income (interest and fees) is incorporated in a fair value calculation but is generally not considered in a loan loss reserve calculation. For a further discussion of the Firm’s methodologies for estimating the fair value of loans and lending-related commitments, see Note 3 pages 171–173 of JPMorgan Chase’s 2010Annual Report.

(b) Effective January 1, 2011, $23.0 billion of long-term advances from Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBs”) were reclassified from other borrowed funds to long-term debt. The prior-year period has been revised to conform with the current presentation.

The majority of the Firm’s lending-related commitments are not carried at fair value on a recurring basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, nor are they actively traded. The carrying value and estimated fair value of the Firm’s wholesale lending-related commitments were as follows for the periods indicated.

	June 30, 2011				December 31, 2010
(in billions)	Carrying value(a)		Estimated fair value		Carrying value(a)		Estimated fair value
Wholesale lending-related commitments	$	0.6	$	1.5	$	0.7	$	0.9

(a) Represents the allowance for wholesale lending-related commitments. Excludes the current carrying values of the guarantee liability and the offsetting asset, each of which are recognized at fair value at the inception of guarantees.

The Firm does not estimate the fair value of consumer lending-related commitments. In many cases, the Firm can reduce or cancel these commitments by providing the borrower notice or, in some cases, without notice as permitted by law. For a further discussion of the valuation of lending-related commitments, see Note 3 on pages 171–173 of JPMorgan Chase’s 2010Annual Report.
