Fair Value Disclosures
Fair Value Measurement	Note 23 – Fair value measurement ASC Subtopic 820-10 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels in order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and disclosures. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows: ● Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Corporation has the ability to access at the measurement date. Valuation on these instruments does not necessitate a significant degree of judgment since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily available in an active market. ● Level 2 - Quoted prices other than those included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or that can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. ● Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect the Corporation’s own judgements about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Corporation maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the observable inputs be used when available. Fair value is based upon quoted market prices when available. If listed prices or quotes are not available, the Corporation employs internally-developed models that primarily use market-based inputs including yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, and credit curves, among others. Valuation adjustments are limited to those necessary to ensure that the financial instrument’s fair value is adequately representative of the price that would be received or paid in the marketplace. These adjustments include amounts that reflect counterparty credit quality, the Corporation’s credit standing, constraints on liquidity and unobservable parameters that are applied consistently. There have been no changes in the Corporation’s methodologies used to estimate the fair value of assets and liabilities from those disclosed in the 2023 Form 10-K. The estimated fair value may be subjective in nature and may involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment for certain financial instruments. Changes in the underlying assumptions used in calculating fair value could significantly affect the results. Fair Value on a Recurring and Nonrecurring Basis The following fair value hierarchy tables present information about the Corporation’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023: At March 31, 2024 (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Measured at NAV Total RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Assets Debt securities available-for-sale: U.S. Treasury securities $ 6,262,480 $ 6,026,731 $ - $ - $ 12,289,211 Collateralized mortgage obligations - federal agencies - 127,608 - - 127,608 Mortgage-backed securities - 5,597,993 607 - 5,598,600 Other - 5 2,000 - 2,005 Total debt securities available-for-sale $ 6,262,480 $ 11,752,337 $ 2,607 $ - $ 18,017,424 Trading account debt securities, excluding derivatives: U.S. Treasury securities $ 8,316 $ - $ - $ - $ 8,316 Obligations of Puerto Rico, States and political subdivisions - 60 - - 60 Collateralized mortgage obligations - 90 - - 90 Mortgage-backed securities - 18,587 84 - 18,671 Other - - 166 - 166 Total trading account debt securities, excluding derivatives $ 8,316 $ 18,737 $ 250 $ - $ 27,303 Equity securities $ - $ 40,933 $ - $ 336 $ 41,269 Mortgage servicing rights - - 114,964 - 114,964 Loans held-for-sale - 5,352 - - 5,352 Derivatives - 24,045 - - 24,045 Total assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis $ 6,270,796 $ 11,841,404 $ 117,821 $ 336 $ 18,230,357 Liabilities Derivatives $ - $ (21,784) $ - $ - $ (21,784) Total liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis $ - $ (21,784) $ - $ - $ (21,784) At December 31, 2023 (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Measured at NAV Total RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Assets Debt securities available-for-sale: U.S. Treasury securities $ 3,936,036 $ 6,811,025 $ - $ - $ 10,747,061 Collateralized mortgage obligations - federal agencies - 134,686 - - 134,686 Mortgage-backed securities - 5,844,180 606 - 5,844,786 Other - 11 2,500 - 2,511 Total debt securities available-for-sale $ 3,936,036 $ 12,789,902 $ 3,106 $ - $ 16,729,044 Trading account debt securities, excluding derivatives: U.S. Treasury securities $ 16,859 $ - $ - $ - $ 16,859 Obligations of Puerto Rico, States and political subdivisions - 71 - - 71 Collateralized mortgage obligations - 93 5 - 98 Mortgage-backed securities - 14,261 112 - 14,373 Other - - 167 - 167 Total trading account debt securities, excluding derivatives $ 16,859 $ 14,425 $ 284 $ - $ 31,568 Equity securities $ - $ 37,965 $ - $ 310 $ 38,275 Mortgage servicing rights - - 118,109 - 118,109 Loans held-for-sale - 3,239 - - 3,239 Derivatives - 24,419 - - 24,419 Total assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis $ 3,952,895 $ 12,869,950 $ 121,499 $ 310 $ 16,944,654 Liabilities Derivatives $ - $ (21,103) $ - $ - $ (21,103) Total liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis $ - $ (21,103) $ - $ - $ (21,103) Beginning in the first quarter of 2023, the Corporation has elected the fair value option for newly originated mortgage loans held-for- sale. This election better aligns with the management of the portfolio from a business perspective. Loans held-for-sale measured at fair value Loans held-for-sale measured at fair value were priced based on secondary market prices. These loans are classified as Level 2. The following tables summarize the difference between the aggregate fair value and the aggregate unpaid principal balance for mortgage loans originated as held-for-sale measured at fair value as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
