As part of the Corporation's product offerings, the Corporation acts as an interest rate swap counterparty for certain commercial borrowers in the normal course of servicing our customers. The interest rate swap agreements are free-standing derivatives and are recorded at fair value in the Corporation's consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation manages its exposure to such interest rate swaps by entering into corresponding and offsetting interest rate swaps with third parties that mirror the terms of the interest rate swaps it has with the commercial borrowers. These positions directly offset each other and its exposure is the fair value of the derivatives due to changes in credit risk of our commercial borrowers and third parties. The Corporation also enters into risk participation agreements with dealer banks on commercial loans in which it participates. The Corporation receives an upfront fee for participating in the credit exposure of the interest rate swap associated with the commercial loan in which it is a participant and the fee received is recognized immediately in other non-interest income. The Corporation is exposed to its share of the credit loss equal to the fair value of the interest rate swap in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty of the interest rate swap. The Corporation determines the fair value of the credit loss exposure using an estimated credit default rate based on the historical performance of similar assets.

The notional amount of the interest rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements. At December 31, 2015, the Corporation held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments with a total notional amount of $14.4 million. Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments included interest rate swaps of $3.9 million and risk participation agreements with dealer banks of $10.5 million. Non-hedging derivatives are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes and are therefore recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in other non-interest income.
