Borrowings and Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

NOTE 11 – Borrowings and Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

Our short-term financing is generally obtained through short-term bank line financing on an uncommitted, secured basis, securities lending arrangements, repurchase agreements, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, term loans, and committed bank line financing on an unsecured basis. We borrow from various banks on a demand basis with company-owned and customer securities pledged as collateral. The value of customer-owned securities used as collateral is not reflected in the consolidated statements of financial condition. We also have an unsecured, committed bank line available.

Our uncommitted secured lines of credit at December 31, 2021, totaled $880.0 million with four banks and are dependent on having appropriate collateral, as determined by the bank agreements, to secure an advance under the line. The availability of our uncommitted lines is subject to approval by the individual banks each time an advance is requested and may be denied. Our peak daily borrowing on our uncommitted secured lines was $135.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. There are no compensating balance requirements under these arrangements. Any borrowings on secured lines of credit are generally utilized to finance certain fixed income securities. At December 31, 2021, we had no outstanding balances on our uncommitted secured lines of credit.

The Federal Home Loan advances are floating-rate advances. The weighted average interest rates on these advances during the year ended December 31, 2021, was 0.30%. The advances are secured by Stifel Bancorp’s residential mortgage loan portfolio and investment portfolio. The interest rates reset on a daily basis. Stifel Bancorp has the option to prepay these advances without penalty on the interest reset date. At December 31, 2021, there were no Federal Home Loan advances.

On May 27, 2021, the Company and Stifel entered into an unsecured revolving credit facility agreement (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility has a maturity date of May 2026, and the lenders include a number of financial institutions. This committed unsecured borrowing facility provides for maximum borrowings of up to $500.0 million, with a sublimit of $200.0 million for the Company. Stifel may borrow up to $500.0 million under the Credit Facility, depending on the amount of outstanding borrowings of the Company. The interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Facility are variable and based on LIBOR, as adjusted. There were no borrowings outstanding on the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2021.
