| Fair Value Measurement Methodologies |
The following table summarizes the fair value measurement methodologies, including significant inputs and assumptions and classification of the Company’s assets and liabilities valued at fair value on a recurring basis. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Asset/Liability class | | Valuation methodology, inputs and assumptions | | Classification | | Investment securities | | | | | | U.S Treasury securities (Trading securities and Investment securities AFS) | | Fair Value is based on quoted prices in an active market. | | Level 1 recurring fair value measurement. | | Investment securities AFS (level 2) | | Observable market prices of identical or similar securities are used where available. | | Level 2 recurring fair value measurement. | | Investment securities AFS (level 3) | | If market prices are not readily available, value is based on discounted cash flows using the following significant inputs: •Expected prepayment speeds •Estimated credit losses •Market liquidity adjustments | | Level 3 recurring fair value measurement. | | LHFS | | | | | | Single family loans | | Fair value is based on observable market data, including: •Quoted market prices, where available •Dealer quotes for similar loans •Forward sale commitments | | Level 2 recurring fair value measurement. | | | | | | | Equity securities | | Observable market prices of identical or similar securities are used where available. | | Level 2 recurring fair value measurement. | | Mortgage servicing rights | | | | | | Single family MSRs | | For information on how the Company measures the fair value of its single family MSRs, including key economic assumptions and the sensitivity of fair value to changes in those assumptions, see Note 9, “Mortgage Banking Operations.” | | Level 3 recurring fair value measurement. | | Derivatives | | | | | | Futures and Options | | Fair value is based on closing exchange prices. | | Level 1 recurring fair value measurement. | | Forward sale commitments and interest rate swaps | | Fair value is based on quoted prices for identical or similar instruments, when available. When quoted prices are not available, fair value is based on internally developed modeling techniques, which require the use of multiple observable market inputs including: •Forward interest rates •Interest rate volatilities | | Level 2 recurring fair value measurement. | | IRLC | | The fair value considers several factors including: •Fair value of the underlying loan based on quoted prices in the secondary market, when available •Value of servicing •Fall-out factor | | Level 3 recurring fair value measurement. |
