DERIVATIVES

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into a variety of derivative transactions in order to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. These transactions include interest rate swap contracts, interest rate options, foreign exchange contracts, residential loan commitment rate locks, forward sale contracts and purchase options. The Company monitors the results of each transaction to ensure that management’s intent is satisfied. The Company does not use derivatives for speculative purposes.

The Company’s derivative instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Information regarding the valuation methodology and inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments is described in Note 12 “Fair Value Measurements.”

The following table presents derivative instruments included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in derivative assets and derivative liabilities:

⁽¹⁾The notional or contractual amount of interest rate derivatives and foreign exchange contracts is the amount upon which interest and other payments under the contract are based. For interest rate contracts, the notional amount is typically not exchanged. Therefore, notional amounts should not be taken as the measure of credit or market risk, as they do not measure the true economic risk of these contracts.

⁽²⁾Amounts represent the impact of enforceable master netting agreements that allow the Company to net settle positive and negative positions.

The Company’s derivative transactions are internally divided into three sub-groups: institutional, customer and residential loan. The Company has certain derivative transactions which are designated as fair value or cash flow hedges, described as follows:

Derivatives designated as hedging instruments

The Company’s institutional derivatives portfolio qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. This includes interest rate swaps that are designated as highly effective fair value and cash flow hedging relationships. The Company formally documents at inception all hedging relationships, as well as risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various accounting hedges. Additionally, the Company uses dollar offset or regression analysis at the hedge’s inception, and monthly thereafter, to assess whether the derivatives are expected to be, or have been, highly effective in offsetting changes in the hedged item’s expected cash flows. The Company discontinues hedge accounting treatment when it is determined that a derivative is not expected to be, or has ceased to be, effective as a hedge and then reflects changes in fair value in earnings after termination of the hedge relationship.

Fair value hedges

The Company has outstanding interest rate swap agreements to manage the interest rate exposure on its medium-term borrowings. The change in value of fair value hedges, to the extent that the hedging relationship is effective, is recorded through other income and offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged item.

The following table presents the effect on other income of fair value hedges described above:



	Amounts Recognized in Other Income for the
	Three Months Ended June 30, 2018								Three Months Ended June 30, 2017
(in millions)	Derivative		Hedged Item			Hedge Ineffectiveness			Derivative		Hedged Item			Hedge Ineffectiveness
Hedges of interest rate risk on borrowings using interest rate swaps		$12		($13	)		($1	)		$16		($15	)		$1



	Amounts Recognized in Other Income for the
	Six Months Ended June 30, 2018								Six Months Ended June 30, 2017
(in millions)	Derivative			Hedged Item		Hedge Ineffectiveness			Derivative		Hedged Item			Hedge Ineffectiveness
Hedges of interest rate risk on borrowings using interest rate swaps		($26	)		$24		($2	)		$10		($9	)		$1

Cash flow hedges

The Company has outstanding interest rate swap agreements designed to hedge a portion of the Company’s floating rate assets and financing liabilities (including its borrowed funds). All of these swaps have been deemed as highly effective cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the hedging gains and losses associated with these hedges are recorded in OCI; the ineffective portion of the hedging gains and losses is recorded in earnings (other income). Hedging gains and losses on derivative contracts reclassified from OCI to current period earnings are included in the line item in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations in which the hedged item is recorded and in the same period that the hedged item affects earnings. During the next 12 months, there are $7 million in pre-tax net losses on derivative instruments included in OCI expected to be reclassified to net interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Hedging gains and losses associated with the Company’s cash flow hedges are immediately reclassified from OCI to current period earnings (other income) if it becomes probable that the hedged forecasted transactions will not occur during the originally specified time period.

The following table presents the effect of cash flow hedges on net income and stockholders' equity:



	Amounts Recognized for the
	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
(in millions)	2018			2017			2018			2017
Effective portion of (loss) gain recognized in OCI ⁽¹⁾		($17	)		$42			($87	)		$37
Amounts reclassified from OCI to interest income ⁽²⁾	(13		)	8			(19		)	20
Amounts reclassified from OCI to interest expense ⁽²⁾	4			(1		)	8			(3		)

⁽¹⁾The cumulative effective gains and losses on the Company’s cash flow hedging activities are included on the accumulated other comprehensive loss line item on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

⁽²⁾This amount includes both (i) the amortization of effective gains and losses associated with the Company’s terminated cash flow hedges and (ii) the current reporting period’s interest settlements realized on the Company’s active cash flow hedges. Both (i) and (ii) were previously included on the accumulated other comprehensive loss line item on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and were subsequently recorded as adjustments to the interest income or expense of the underlying hedged item.

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments

Economic hedges

The Company’s customer derivatives are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. These include interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts that are designed to meet the hedging and financing needs of the Company’s customers. Mark-to-market adjustments to the fair value of these contracts are included in foreign exchange and interest rate products on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The mark-to-market gains and losses associated with the customer derivatives are mitigated by the mark-to-market gains and losses on the offsetting interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts transacted.

The Company’s residential loan derivatives (including residential loan commitments and forward sales contracts) are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Mark-to-market adjustments to the fair value of residential loan commitments and forward sale contracts are included in noninterest income under mortgage banking fees.

The following table presents the effect of customer derivatives and economic hedges on noninterest income:



	Amounts Recognized in Noninterest Income for the
	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
