[1] Netting is performed at a counterparty level in cases where enforceable master netting agreements are in place, regardless of the type of derivative instrument. Therefore, we have not attempted to allocate netting to the different types of derivative instruments shown in the table above.

[2] Represents the netting of derivative receivable and payable balances for the same counterparty under enforceable netting agreements.

[3] Represents counterparty and cash collateral netting which allow the offsetting of amounts relating to certain contracts if certain conditions are met.

[4] Includes trading derivative assets of $3,378 million and $4,411 million and trading derivative liabilities of $2,610 million and $3,786 million at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, as well as derivatives held for hedging and commitments accounted for as derivatives.

[5] Consists of swap agreements entered into in conjunction with the sales of certain Visa Class B Shares.

[6] See Note 10, "Fair Value Option," for additional information.

[7] Represents contingent consideration receivable associated with the sale of a portion of our Private Banking business.

[8] We are the client-facing entity and we enter into identical but opposite derivatives to transfer the resultant risks to our affiliates. With the exception of counterparty credit risks, we are market neutral. The corresponding intra-group derivatives are presented as equity derivatives and foreign exchange derivatives in the table.

[9] Includes certain commercial loans held for sale which we have elected to apply the fair value option. See Note 6, "Loans Held for Sale," for further information.

[10] Structured deposits and structured notes contain embedded derivative features whose fair value measurements contain significant Level 3 inputs.
