DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
NOTE 12 — DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our derivatives designated as hedging instruments include interest rate swap contracts utilized to manage our interest rate exposure for items on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. This includes floating-rate loan portfolio cash flow hedges and fair value hedges of our fixed-rate borrowings and deposits.

Our derivatives not designated as hedging instruments mainly include interest rate and foreign exchange contracts that our customers utilized for their risk management needs. We typically manage our exposure to these customer derivatives by entering into offsetting or “back-to-back” interest rate and foreign exchange contracts with third-party dealers.

Derivative instruments that are cleared through certain central counterparty clearing houses are settled-to-market and reported net of collateral positions.

For further information on accounting for derivatives and hedging, refer to Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation of this Form 10-Q and our 2023 Form 10-K.

(1)    Fair value balances include accrued interest.
(2)    The foreign exchange contracts exclude foreign exchange spot contracts. The notional and net fair value amounts of these contracts were $660 million and $0 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2024, and $179 million and $0 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2023.
(3)    Other derivative contracts not designated as hedging instruments include risk participation agreements and equity warrants.
(4)    BancShares accounts for swap contracts cleared by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and LCH Clearnet as “settled-to-market.” As a result, variation margin payments are characterized as settlement of the derivative exposure and variation margin balances are netted against the corresponding derivative mark-to-market balances. Gross amounts of recognized assets and liabilities were lowered by $70 million and $47 million, respectively, at September 30, 2024, which includes $24 million and $0 million relating to qualifying hedges, respectively. Gross amounts of recognized assets and liabilities were lowered by $66 million and $37 million, respectively, at December 31, 2023, which includes $4 million and $0 million, respectively, relating to qualifying hedges.
(5)    BancShares’ derivative transactions are governed by International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) agreements that allow for net settlements of certain payments as well as offsetting of all contracts with a given counterparty in the event of bankruptcy or default of one of the two parties to the transaction. BancShares believes its ISDA agreements meet the definition of a master netting arrangement or similar agreement for purposes of the above disclosure.
(6)    In conjunction with the ISDA agreements described above, BancShares has entered into collateral arrangements with its counterparties, which provide for the exchange of cash depending on the change in the market valuation of the derivative contracts outstanding. Such collateral is available to be applied in settlement of the net balances upon an event of default of one of the counterparties. Collateral pledged or received is included in other assets or deposits, respectively.
