(2)As of June 30, 2025, closed portfolios of securities hedged under the portfolio layer method have an amortized cost of $29.7 billion, of which $17.4 billion was designated as hedged. As of December 31, 2024, closed portfolios of securities hedged under the portfolio layer method have an amortized cost of $30.5 billion, of which $18.0 billion was designated as hedged. The remaining amount of amortized cost is from securities with terminated hedges where the basis adjustment is being amortized into earnings using the effective interest method over the contractual life of the security and hedges not designated under the portfolio-layer method.
Impact of Derivatives on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments under GAAP

No portion of the change in fair value of derivatives designated as hedges has been excluded from effectiveness testing.

Of the after-tax net loss on active and terminated cash flow hedges in OCI as of June 30, 2025, losses of $173 million after-tax are expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments under GAAP

The Company also enters into derivatives that are not designated as accounting hedges under GAAP to economically hedge certain risks as well as in a trading capacity with its clients.

Credit Derivative Instruments

As part of the Company’s investment banking and capital markets business, the Company enters into contracts that are, in form or substance, written guarantees; specifically, risk participation agreements, TRS, and credit default swaps. The Company accounts for these contracts as derivatives.

Truist has entered into risk participation agreements to share the credit exposure with other financial institutions on client-related interest rate derivative contracts. Under these agreements, the Company has guaranteed payment to a dealer counterparty in the event the counterparty experiences a loss on the derivative due to a failure to pay by the counterparty’s client. The Company manages its payment risk on its risk participations by monitoring the creditworthiness of the underlying clients through the normal credit review process that the Company would have performed had it entered into a derivative directly with the obligors. At June 30, 2025, the remaining terms on these risk participations ranged from less than one year to nine years. The potential future exposure represents the Company’s maximum estimated exposure to written risk participations, as measured by projecting a maximum value of the guaranteed derivative instruments based on scenario simulations and assuming 100% default by all obligors on the maximum value.

The Company has also entered into TRS contracts on loans and bonds. To mitigate its credit risk, the Company typically receives initial margin from the counterparty upon entering into the TRS and variation margin if the fair value of the underlying reference assets deteriorates. For additional information on the Company’s TRS contracts, see “Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies.”

The Company enters into credit default swaps to hedge credit risk associated with certain loans and leases. The Company accounts for these contracts as derivatives, and accordingly, recognizes these contracts at fair value.
