INCOME TAXES
Income Tax Provision
The provision for income taxes was $118 million and $92 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 32.6% and 32.7%, respectively. The provision for income taxes was $227 million and $198 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 32.7% and 33.2%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the effective tax rate compared favorably to the statutory rate of 35% primarily as a result of the permanent benefits of tax credits and tax-exempt income.
Deferred Tax Liability
At June 30, 2016, the Company reported a net deferred tax liability of $961 million, compared to a $730 million liability as of December 31, 2015. The increase in the net deferred tax liability is primarily attributable to the tax effect of net unrealized gains on securities and derivatives arising during the period and the tax effect of current year timing adjustments.
