Under agreements with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago, FHLB advances (short-term and long-term) are secured by qualifying mortgages of the subsidiary bank (such as residential mortgage, residential mortgage loans held for sale, home equity, and commercial real estate) and by specific investment securities for certain FHLB advances. At December 31, 2015, the Corporation had $5.5 billion of total collateral capacity supported by residential mortgage and home equity loans. Total short-term and long-term FHLB advances outstanding at December 31, 2015, was $2.1 billion.
