Balance Sheet - Topic 210
Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2011-11”), was issued in December 2011 and was intended to enhance current disclosure requirements on offsetting financial assets and liabilities. The requirements of ASU 2011-11 enable users to compare balance sheets prepared under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), which are subject to different offsetting models. The requirements affect all entities that have financial instruments that are either offset in the balance sheet or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-01, “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2013-01”), was issued in January 2013 to address implementation issues about the scope of ASU 2011-11. Both ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 were effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The required disclosures were effective retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Comprehensive Income - Topic 220
Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”) was issued in February 2013 and requires additional disclosure of the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) in a single location, either on the face of the financial statement that reports net income or in the notes to the financial statements. ASU 2013-02 does not change the current requirements and carries forward the existing requirements that reclassifications out of AOCI be separately presented for each component of other comprehensive income. For items reclassified out of AOCI and into net income in their entirety, the effect of the reclassification on each affected net income line must be disclosed. For AOCI reclassification items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net income, a cross reference to other required disclosures is required. The amendments were effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, see Note 18.

Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures - Topic 323
Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-01, “Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects” (“ASU 2014-01”), was issued in January 2014 and permits a reporting entity to make an accounting policy election to account for investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. The amendments are expected to enable more entities to record the amortization of the investment in income tax expense together with the tax credits and other tax benefits generated from the partnership. ASU 2014-01 is effective retrospectively for public business entities for annual and interim reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-01 is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors - Topic 310
Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-04, “Reclassifications of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure” (“ASU 2014-04”), was issued in January 2014 and clarifies when banks and similar institutions (creditors) should reclassify mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate properties from the loan portfolio to other real estate owned (OREO). ASU 2014-04 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods with annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. An entity can elect either a modified retrospective or prospective transition method, and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.
