Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives

Note 5. Derivatives

The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. The notional amount of the interest rate swap does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements.

Interest rate swaps were entered into on June 4, 2019 with a notional amount of $50 million and in April 13, 2017, August 24, 2015, December 30, 2014 and October 15, 2014, each with a respective notional amount of $25 million and were designated as cash flow hedges of an FHLB advance. The swaps were determined to be fully effective during the period presented and therefore no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income while the aggregate fair value of the swaps is recorded in other assets (liabilities) with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) would be reclassified to current earnings should the hedges no longer be considered effective. The Company expects the hedges to remain fully effective during the remaining term of the swaps.

Summary information about the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges as of June 30, 2019, December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018 are presented in the following table.
