Commercial Banking is comprised of five main divisions: Western Markets, which serves companies primarily in California, Oregon and Washington; Petroleum, which serves oil and gas companies; Expansion Markets, which serves clients nationally, outside of the western states, and also targets certain defined industries such as entertainment and technology; Specialized Products, which focuses on specific industries on a national basis including Commercial Finance, Funds Finance, Environmental Services, Non-Profits, Healthcare, and Transportation, Aerospace/Defense; and Real Estate Industries, which serves professional real estate investors and developers. Real Estate Industries, through its Community Development Finance unit, makes tax credit investments in affordable housing projects, as well as construction and permanent financing.

Other

"Other" includes the Asian Corporate Banking segment, Corporate Treasury and the impact of certain corporate activities. The Asian Corporate Banking segment offers a range of credit, deposit, and investment management products and services to companies located primarily in the U.S. that are affiliated with companies headquartered in Japan and other Asian countries. Corporate Treasury is responsible for ALM, wholesale funding and the ALM investment and derivatives hedging portfolios. These Treasury management activities are carried out to manage the net interest rate and liquidity risks of the Company's balance sheet and to manage those risks within the guidelines established by ALCO. For additional discussion regarding these risk management activities, see Part I, Item 3. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in this Form 10-Q.

Additionally, "Other" is comprised of certain corporate activities of the Company; the net impact of funds transfer pricing charges and credits allocated to the reportable segments; the residual costs of support groups; the unallocated allowance; goodwill, intangible assets, and the related amortization/accretion associated with the Company's privatization transaction; the elimination of the fully taxable-equivalent basis amount; the difference between the marginal tax rate and the consolidated effective tax rate; and the FDIC covered assets.

The information, set forth in the tables that follow, is prepared using various management accounting methodologies to measure the performance of the individual segments. Unlike GAAP there is no standardized or authoritative guidance for management accounting. Consequently, reported results are not necessarily comparable with those presented by other companies and they are not necessarily indicative of the results that would be reported by the business units if they were unique economic entities. The management reporting accounting methodologies, which are enhanced from time to time, measure segment profitability by assigning balance sheet and income statement items to each operating segment. Methodologies that are applied to the measurement of segment profitability include a funds transfer pricing system, an activity-based costing methodology, other indirect costs and a methodology to allocate the provision for credit losses. The funds transfer pricing system assigns a cost of funds or a credit for funds to assets or liabilities based on their type, maturity or repricing characteristics. The activity-based costing methodology allocates certain indirect costs, such as operations and technology expense, to the segments based on studies of billable unit costs for product or data processing. Other indirect costs, such as corporate overhead, are allocated to the segments based on internal surveys and metrics that serve as proxies for estimated usage. During the normal course of business, the Company occasionally changes or updates its management accounting methodologies or organizational structure. During 2014, the Company revised the funds transfer pricing methodology with respect to reference rates for certain commercial deposits. The Company also continued to refine its organizational structure resulting from the internal management structure implemented as part of the BTMU Americas Holdings business integration initiative established in 2013. In addition, effective January 1, 2015, the Company adopted ASU 2014-01, "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects", which was required to be applied retrospectively upon adoption. These investments are part of our Commercial Banking segment. Prior period results have been adjusted to reflect these changes.

The Company generally applies a "market view" perspective in measuring the business segments. The market view is a measurement of customer markets aggregated to show all revenues generated and expenses incurred from all products and services sold to those customers regardless of where product areas organizationally report. Therefore, revenues and expenses are included in both the business segment that provides the service and the business segment that manages the customer relationship. The duplicative results from this internal management accounting view are eliminated in "Reconciling Items."
