Summary of Derivative Instruments [Abstract]  
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Objectives and Accounting
Our primary objective for using derivatives is to manage interest rate risk. We utilize derivatives to stabilize forecasted interest income from variable-rate assets and to modify the coupon or duration of fixed-rate financial assets or liabilities. Additionally, we assist customers with their risk management needs through the use of derivatives. Cash receipts and payments from derivatives designated in qualifying hedging relationships are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the items being hedged in the statement of cash flows, while cash flows from undesignated derivatives are classified as operating activities. For more information about the use of and accounting policies regarding derivative instruments, see Note 7 of our 2024 Form 10-K.
Collateral and Credit Risk
Credit risk arises from the possibility of nonperformance by counterparties. No significant losses on derivative instruments have occurred as a result of counterparty nonperformance. For more information on how we incorporate counterparty credit risk in derivative valuations, see Note 3 of our 2024 Form 10-K. For additional discussion of collateral and the associated credit risk related to our derivative contracts, see Note 7 of our 2024 Form 10-K.
Our derivative contracts require us to pledge collateral for derivatives in a net liability position at a given balance sheet date. Certain derivative contracts include credit risk-related contingent features, such as the requirement to maintain a minimum debt credit rating. If a credit risk-related feature were triggered, such as a downgrade of our credit rating, we may be required to pledge additional collateral. Historically, not all counterparties have demanded additional collateral when contractually permitted.
At June 30, 2025, the fair value of our derivative liabilities was $274 million, for which we pledged $13 million in cash collateral in the normal course of business to satisfy variation margin requirements. Additionally, we pledged $200 million in U.S. Treasuries to satisfy initial margin requirements with certain dealer counterparties and central clearing houses. If our credit rating were downgraded one notch by either Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) or Moody’s at June 30, 2025, it is unlikely that additional collateral would be required to be pledged. Derivatives that are centrally cleared do not have credit risk-related features requiring additional collateral in the event of a credit rating downgrade.
We measure counterparty credit risk by calculating a credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”), which captures the value of nonperformance risk for both our counterparties and the Bank. The fair value of derivatives includes a net CVA, which reduced the fair value of derivative liabilities by $9 million at both June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024. CVA is included in “Capital markets fees and income” on the consolidated statement of income.

1 For the 12 months following June 30, 2025, we estimate that $45 million of net losses from active and terminated cash flow hedges will be reclassified from AOCI into interest income, compared with an estimate of $88 million at June 30, 2024. At June 30, 2025, there were $60 million of losses deferred in AOCI related to terminated cash flow hedges that are expected to be fully reclassified into earnings by October 2027.
2 We had total cumulative unamortized basis adjustments from terminated fair value hedges of debt of $36 million and $43 million at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We had $3 million of cumulative unamortized basis adjustments from terminated fair value hedges of assets at both June 30, 2025 and 2024. Interest on fair value hedges presented above includes the amortization of the remaining unamortized basis adjustments.
