Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Derivatives Derivatives  The Bank may use derivatives to hedge the risk of changes in the fair values of interest rate lock commitments and residential mortgage loans held for sale. None of the Company's derivatives are designated as hedging instruments.  Rather, they are accounted for as free-standing derivatives, or economic hedges, with changes in the fair value of the derivatives reported in income. The Company primarily utilizes forward interest rate contracts in its derivative risk management strategy.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Allowance for Credit Losses Policy- The Bank has established an Allowance for Credit Loss Committee, which is responsible for, among other things, regularly reviewing the ACL methodology, including allowance levels and ensuring that it is designed and applied in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Bank's Audit and Compliance Committee provides board oversight of the ACL process and reviews and approves the ACL methodology on a quarterly basis. CECL is not prescriptive in the methodology used to determine the expected credit loss estimate. Instead, management has flexibility in selecting the methodology. The expected credit losses must be estimated over a financial asset's contractual term, adjusted for prepayments utilizing quantitative and qualitative factors. There are also specific considerations for Purchased Credit-Deteriorated, Troubled Debt Restructured ("TDR"), and Collateral Dependent Loans ("CDL").

The estimate of current expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amounts. Historical loss experience is the starting point for estimating expected credit losses. Adjustments are made to historical loss experience to reflect differences in asset-specific risk characteristics, such as underwriting standards, portfolio mix or asset terms, and differences in economic conditions – both current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. When the Company is not able to make or obtain reasonable and supportable forecasts for the entire life of the financial asset, it has estimated expected credit losses for the remaining life using an approach that reverts to historical credit loss information for the longer-term portion of the asset's life.

The Company utilizes complex models to obtain reasonable and supportable forecasts; most of the models calculate two predictive metrics: the probability of default ("PD") and loss given default ("LGD"). The PD measures the probability that a loan will default within a given time horizon and primarily measures the adequacy of the debtor's cash flow as the primary source of repayment of the loan or lease. The LGD is the expected loss which would be realized presuming a default has occurred and primarily measures the value of the collateral or other secondary source of repayment related to the collateral.
The combination of the current expected credit loss, purchased credit deteriorated, collateral dependent loans, troubled debt restructuring, and the reserve for unfunded commitments components represent the allowance for credit losses. Management believes that the ACL was adequate as of March 31, 2020. There is, however, no assurance that future loan losses will not exceed the levels provided for in the ACL and could possibly result in additional charges to the provision for credit losses.
Acquired Loans Acquired Loans and Leases- Loans and leases purchased without more-than-insignificant credit deterioration, are recorded at their fair value at the acquisition date. However, loans and leases purchased with more-than-insignificant credit deterioration will be recorded with their applicable allowance for credit loss to determine the amortized cost basis.
Originated Loans and Leases Originated Loans and Leases- Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, net of unearned income and any deferred fees or costs. All discounts and premiums are recognized over the contractual life of the loan as yield adjustments. Leases are recorded at the amount of minimum future lease payments receivable and estimated residual value of the leased equipment, net of unearned income and any deferred fees. Initial direct costs related to lease originations are deferred as part of the investment in direct financing leases and amortized over their term using the effective interest method. Unearned lease income is amortized over the term using the effective interest method.
Income Recognition On Non-Covered, Non-Accrual and Impaired Loans Income Recognition on Non-Accrual Loans- Loans are classified as non-accrual if the collection of principal and interest is doubtful. Generally, this occurs when a commercial or commercial real estate loan is past due as to maturity or payment of principal or interest by 90 days or more, unless such loans are well-secured and in the process of collection. Loans that are less than 90 days past due may also be classified as non-accrual if repayment in full of principal and/or interest is in doubt.Generally, when a loan is classified as non-accrual, all uncollected accrued interest is reversed from interest income and the accrual of interest income is terminated. In addition, any cash payments subsequently received are applied as a reduction of principal outstanding. In cases where the future collectability of the principal balance in full is expected, interest income may be recognized on a cash basis. A loan may be restored to accrual status when the borrower's financial condition improves so that full collection of future contractual payments is considered likely. For those loans placed on non-accrual status due to payment delinquency, return to accrual status will generally not occur until the borrower demonstrates repayment ability over a period of not less than six months.
Collateral Dependent Loans and Troubled Debt Restructuring
Collateral Dependent Loans and Troubled Debt Restructurings- A loan or lease is considered collateral dependent when repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The Company's classification of CDLs includes: non-homogeneous non-accrual loans and leases, non-homogeneous loans determined by individual credit review, homogeneous non-accrual leases and equipment finance agreements and homogeneous real estate secured loans that have been charged down to net realizable value or the government guarantee balance. Except for homogenous leases and equipment finance agreements, the expected credit losses for CDLs will be measured using the fair value of the underlying collateral, adjusted for costs to sell when applicable, less the amortized cost basis of the financial asset. The Company may also use the loan's observable market price, if available. If the value of the CDL is determined to be less than the recorded amount of the loan, a charge-off will be taken. To determine the expected credit loss for homogenous leases or equipment finances agreements, the LGD calculated by the CECL model will be utilized. When a homogenous lease or equipment finance agreement becomes 181 days past due, it is fully charged-off.

Loans are reported as restructured loans when, due to borrower financial difficulties, the Bank grants a concession it would not otherwise be willing to offer for a loan. Once a loan has been classified as restructured, it continues in the classification until it has paid in full or it has demonstrated six months payment performance and was determined to have been modified at a market rate. TDRs, including reasonably expected TDRs, are individually recognized and measured for expected credit loss. They are measured for expected credit loss in two ways: when a TDR meets the definition of a CDL, it is measured using the fair value of the underlying collateral, adjusted for costs to sell when applicable; otherwise, a discounted cash flow analysis is utilized to measure the expected credit loss for a TDR. The discounted cash flow for TDRs are discounted based on the pre-modification rate and the expected remaining life.
In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act was passed, which, among other things, allows the Bank to suspend the requirements for certain loan modifications to be categorized as a TDR, including the related impairment for accounting purposes, as such, the Bank is not reporting COVID-19 related modifications as TDRs.
Reserve for Unfunded Commitments Reserve for Unfunded Commitments- A reserve for unfunded commitments is maintained at a level that, in the opinion of management, is adequate to absorb expected losses associated with the Bank's commitment to lend funds under existing agreements, such as letters or lines of credit. The RUC calculation utilizes the allowance for credit loss on loans and leases rates, probability of default risk ratings, and utilization rates based on the economic expectations over the contractual life of the commitment. The reserve is based on estimates, and ultimate losses may vary from the current estimates. These estimates are evaluated on a regular basis and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known. Draws on unfunded commitments that are considered uncollectible at the time funds are advanced are charged to the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases. Provisions for unfunded commitment losses are added to the reserve for unfunded commitments, which is included in the Other Liabilities section of the consolidated balance sheets.In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The ASU was issued to improve the effectiveness of disclosures surrounding fair value measurements. The ASU removes numerous disclosures from Topic 820 including: transfers between level 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and the valuation process for level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU also modified and added disclosure requirements in regards to changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income, as well as the range and weighted average of unobservable inputs for level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2020, on a retrospective basis except certain provisions of the guidance are only required to be applied on a prospective basis.
