Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
FAIR VALUE FAIR VALUE
We measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., an exit price) in the principal market or most advantageous market available to us, in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. For more information about our valuation methodologies for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the fair value hierarchy, see Note 3 of our 2025 Form 10-K.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The following schedule presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

1 The Level 1 private equity investments (“PEIs”) generally relate to the portion of our Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) investments and other similar investments that are publicly traded.
Fair Value Option for Certain Loans Held for Sale
We apply the fair value option to certain commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans designated for sale to third-party conduits for securitization and hedged with derivative instruments. This election reduces accounting volatility that would otherwise result from the mismatch between measuring loans held for sale at the lower of cost or fair value and derivatives at fair value, without requiring the application of hedge accounting. These loans are included in “Loans held for sale” on the consolidated balance sheet. Related fair value gains and losses are included in “Capital markets fees and income” on the consolidated statement of income, and accrued interest is included in “Interest and fees on loans.”
At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $34 million and $71 million, respectively, of loans measured at fair value, with a corresponding unpaid principal balance of $35 million and $72 million. During the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, we recognized approximately $8 million and $6 million, respectively, in net gains from loan sales and valuation adjustments related to loans measured at fair value and the associated derivatives.
Level 3 Valuations
Our Level 3 financial instruments include PEIs and agriculture loan servicing. For additional information regarding our Level 3 financial instruments, including the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate their fair value, see Note 3 of our 2025 Form 10-K.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These include impaired loans measured at the fair value of the underlying collateral, other real estate owned (“OREO”), and equity investments without readily determinable fair values. Nonrecurring fair value adjustments generally arise from observable price changes for such equity investments, write-downs of individual assets, or the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting.
At September 30, 2026, we had $7 million in collateral-dependent loans measured at fair value. During the third quarter of 2026, we recognized no losses related to changes in fair value for these loans. For more information regarding assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, see Note 3 of our 2025 Form 10-K.
