15.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-04, “Receivables — Trouble Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40):  Reclassification of Residential Real Estate collateralized consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure.”  ASU 2014-04 clarifies that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments in this ASU require interim and annual disclosure of both the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans.  ASU 2014-04 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014.  The adoption of ASU 2014-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
