INTRODUCTION

The Charles Schwab Corporation (CSC) is a savings and loan holding company andcompany. Incorporated in 1986, CSC engages, through its subsidiaries, in wealth management, securities brokerage, banking, asset management, custody, and financial advisory services.

Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “Schwab,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean CSC together with its consolidated subsidiaries as of September 30, 2020.

Principal business subsidiaries of CSC include the following:

Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (CS&Co), incorporated in 1971, a securities broker-dealer;
TD Ameritrade, Inc., an introducing securities broker-dealer;
TD Ameritrade Clearing, Inc. (TDAC), a securities broker-dealer that provides trade execution and clearing services to TD Ameritrade, Inc.;

Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (CSIM), the investment advisor for Schwab’s proprietary mutual funds (Schwab Funds®) and for Schwab’s exchange-traded funds (Schwab ETFs™ETFs).

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “TD Ameritrade” or “TDA”), effective October 6, 2020. Upon completion of the acquisition, TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (TDA Holding) became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSC and the below became principal business subsidiaries of CSC:

TD Ameritrade, Inc., an introducing securities broker-dealer; and
TD Ameritrade Clearing, Inc. (TDAC), a securities broker-dealer that provides trade execution and clearing services on a fully-disclosed basis to TD Ameritrade, Inc.

Unless otherwise noted, this Management’s Discussion and Analysis excludesindicated, the results of operations and financial condition of TD Ameritrade. See Overview and Item 1 – Notes 3 and 17 for additional information on our acquisition of TD Ameritrade.terms “Schwab,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean CSC together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Schwab provides financial services to individuals and institutional clients through two segments – Investor Services and Advisor Services. The Investor Services segment provides retail brokerage and banking services to individual investors, and retirement plan services, as well as other corporate brokerage services, to businesses and their employees. The Advisor Services segment provides custodial, trading, banking, and support services, as well as retirement business services, to independent registered investment advisors (RIAs), independent retirement advisors, and recordkeepers.

Effective October 6, 2020, the Company completed its acquisition of TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (TDA Holding) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “TD Ameritrade” or “TDA”). TD Ameritrade provides securities brokerage services, including trade execution, clearing services, and margin lending, through its broker-dealer subsidiaries; and futures and foreign exchange trade execution services through its futures commission merchant (FCM) and forex dealer member (FDM) subsidiary. The TD Ameritrade acquisition is further described in Note 3 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements below. Our consolidated financial statements include the results of operations and financial condition of TD Ameritrade beginning on October 6, 2020.

Schwab was founded on the belief that all Americans deserve access to a better investing experience. Although much has changed in the intervening years, our purpose remains clear – to champion every client’s goals with passion and integrity. Guided by this purpose and our vision of creating the most trusted leader in investment services, management has adopted a strategy described as “Through Clients’ Eyes.”

This strategy emphasizes placing clients’ perspectives, needs, and desires at the forefront. Because investing plays a fundamental role in building financial security, we strive to deliver a better investing experience for our clients – individual investors and the people and institutions who serve them – by disrupting longstanding industry practices on their behalf and providing superior service. We also aim to offer a broad range of products and solutions to meet client needs with a focus on transparency, value, and trust. In addition, management works to couple Schwab’s scale and resources with ongoing expense discipline to keep costs low and ensure that products and solutions are affordable as well as responsive to client needs. In combination, these are the key elements of our “no trade-offs” approach to serving investors. We believe that following this strategy is the best way to maximize our market valuation and stockholder returns over time.

Management estimates that investable wealth in the United States (U.S.) (consisting of assets in defined contribution, retail wealth management and brokerage, and registered investment advisor channels, along with bank deposits) currently exceeds $45$70 trillion, which means Schwab’s and TD Ameritrade’s combinedthe Company’s $7.61 trillion in total client assets of approximately $6 trillion leaves substantial opportunity for growth. Our strategy is based on the principle that developing trusted relationships will translate into more assets from both new and existing clients, ultimately driving more revenue, and along with expense discipline and thoughtful capital management, will generate earnings growth and build long-term stockholder value.

Trading revenue was $964 million in the third quarter and $3.1 billion in the first nine months of 2021, respectively, up from $181 million and $2.5$562 million in the comparable periods of the prior year. This growth was due to the inclusion of TD Ameritrade in the first nine months of 2021, the overall strong trading environment, and mix of trades. Trading revenue in the third quarter was 1% higher than the second quarter of 2021, as a higher proportion of options trades helped increase revenue per trade, offsetting the impact of an 8% decrease in DATs. Bank deposit account fees totaled $323 million and $1.0 billion during the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, increasing 4% and 5%,2021, respectively, as bank deposit account balances (BDA balances) ended the third quarter at $153.3 billion, down 6% from the comparable periods in the prior year. The growth in asset management and administration fees wasyear-end 2020 due primarily to rising balances in advisory solutions, which more than offset higher money market fund fee waivers.

BusinessThroughout the first nine months of 2021, the Company continued its consistent approach to balance sheet management, supporting growth and Asset Acquisitionsliquidity. Total balance sheet assets rose to $607.5 billion as of September 30, 2021, increasing 6% from the end of the second quarter and 11% from December 31, 2020, as the Company saw continued organic growth in client cash balances, as well as initial BDA balance migrations. In addition to issuances of debt and preferred stock earlier in 2021, during the third quarter the Company issued $850 million in long-term senior notes and also completed a tender offer to exchange $2.0 billion of TDA Holding senior notes for an equivalent amount of CSC senior notes. At the end of the third quarter, Schwab’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio was 6.3%, down slightly from 6.4% at June 30, 2021.

Though significantly heightened client activity levels during the first quarter of 2021 impacted our service quality at times, we have taken multiple steps to better deliver the service experience our clients deserve and rely on, including enhancing online self-service capabilities, streamlining our call-routing processes, and increasing hiring. Our efforts have been yielding results, with significant improvement in client service levels by the end of the first quarter of 2021, and our service levels continued to improve in the second and third quarters as client activity moderated.

Integration of TD Ameritrade

As a result of the significant growth seen in recent quarters across key client volume metrics, including the number of active brokerage accounts, DATs, and peak daily trades, the Company has increased the scope of technology work related to the integration. In additionthe first nine months of 2021, we commenced greater technology build-out to support the expanded volumes of our combined client base. Based on our current integration plans and expanded scope of technology work, the Company continues to expect to complete client conversion within 30 to 36 months from the October 6, 2020 acquisition, and we expect to incur total acquisition and integration-related costs and capital expenditures of TD Ameritrade described below, the Company completed several acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. On May 26, 2020, the Company completed its acquisitionbetween $2.0 billion and $2.2 billion.

The Company’s estimates of the assetsnature, amounts, and timing of USAA-IMCO for $1.6recognition of acquisition and integration-related costs remain subject to change based on a number of factors, including the expected duration and complexity of the integration process and the continued uncertainty of the current economic environment. More specifically, factors that could cause variability in our expected acquisition and integration-related costs include the level of employee attrition, workforce redeployment from eliminated positions into open roles, changes in the levels of client activity, as well as increased real estate-related exit cost variability due to effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Over the course of the integration, we continue to expect to realize annualized cost synergies of between $1.8 billion in cash. Along with the asset purchase agreement, the companies entered into a long-term referral agreement that makes Schwab the exclusive provider of wealth management and investment brokerage services for USAA members. The USAA-IMCO acquisition adds scale to the Company’s operations
$2.0 billion, and, through the additionthird quarter of 1.1 million brokerage2021, we have achieved approximately 40% of this amount on an annualized run-rate basis.

The transaction also provides Schwab the opportunityintegration. Refer to further expandItem 7 – Overview in our client base by serving USAA’s members through the long-term referral agreement. See2020 Form 10-K and Item 1 – Note 311 for moreadditional information on the USAA-IMCO acquisition.regarding our integration of TD Ameritrade.

Additionally, during the second quarter of 2020 the Company completed its acquisition of technology and intellectual property of Motif, a financial technology company. The Motif assets help us build on our existing capabilities and help accelerate our development of thematic and direct index investing for Schwab’s retail investors and RIA clients. On July 1, 2020, the Company completed its acquisition of Wasmer, Schroeder & Company, LLC, which adds established strategies and new separately managed account offerings to our existing fixed income lineup.

Subsequent Events

Acquisition of TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation

Effective October 6, 2020, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of TD Ameritrade. TD Ameritrade provides securities brokerage services, including trade execution, clearing services, and margin lending, through its broker-dealer subsidiaries; and futures and foreign exchange trade execution services through its futures commission merchant (FCM) and forex dealer member (FDM) subsidiary. TDA also provides cash sweep and deposit account products through third-party relationships.

TDA’s principal securities broker-dealers, TD Ameritrade, Inc. and TDAC, are registered broker-dealers with the SEC and members of the Financial IndustryCurrent Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA). TD Ameritrade, Inc. is also a registered investment advisor with the SEC. TD Ameritrade Futures & Forex LLC (TDAFF) is registered as an FCMEnvironment and FDM with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), and is a member of the National Futures Association (NFA).

TDA provides services to individual retail investors and traders and to RIAs predominantly through the Internet, a national branch network, and relationships with RIAs. At the time of acquisition, TD Ameritrade had approximately 10,000 employees. TD Ameritrade’s sources of net revenues consist primarily of commissions and transaction fees, bank deposit account fees, net interest revenue, and investment product fees.

TDA’s commissions and transaction fees have included commissions earned on trades of certain securities and derivatives, as well as order flow revenue.Other Developments

TDA’s bank deposit account fees have been generated through TD Ameritrade’s insured deposit account agreement with TD Bank USA, National Association and TD Bank, National Association (together, the TD Depository Institutions), as well as bank deposit account agreements with other third-party depository institutions, whereby uninvested cash held by certain of TDA’s brokerage clients is swept into Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)-insured (up to specified limits) money market deposit accounts at the TD Depository Institutions and other third-party depository institutions. TDA has earned revenue on client cash at these depository institutions based on the return of floating-rate and fixed-rate notional investments, less the interest paid to clients and certain other fees.Liquidity Coverage Ratio

TDA’sAs a result of our average weighted short-term wholesale funding for the past four quarters exceeding $75 billion, we became subject to daily reporting of our liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) and net interest revenue has been generated primarily through margin lending, securities lending activity, as well as segregatedstable funding ratio (NSFR) to the Federal Reserve on July 1, 2021, and operating cashbecame subject to the full (100%) LCR and investments. Interest-bearing liabilities have primarily consisted of interest-bearing payables to brokerage clients.NSFR (up from 85%) on October 1, 2021.

Financial Holding Company Election

TDA’s investment product fee revenue
On March 16, 2021, CSC’s declaration electing to be treated as a Financial Holding Company (FHC) was deemed effective by the Federal Reserve. In addition to the activities that a savings and loan holding company that has consistednot elected to be treated as an FHC is permitted to conduct, the Company may now also engage in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to a financial activity (FHC Activities), including securities underwriting, dealing and making markets in securities, various insurance underwriting activities, and making merchant banking investments in non-financial companies.

The Federal Reserve has the authority to limit an FHC’s ability to conduct otherwise permissible FHC Activities if the FHC or any of revenues earned on client assets invested in money market funds, other mutual funds,its depository institution subsidiaries ceases to meet the applicable eligibility requirements, including requirements that the FHC and certain investment programs. Investment product feeseach of its depository institution subsidiaries maintain their status as “well-capitalized” and “well-managed.” If the Federal Reserve finds that an FHC fails to meet these requirements, the FHC and its subsidiaries may not commence any new FHC Activity, either de novo or through an acquisition, without prior Federal Reserve approval. The Federal Reserve may also includes referral and asset-based program fees on its client assets managed by independent RIAs utilizing TDA’s trading and investing platforms.

Mr. Ricketts was designated by TD Ameritrade pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement and Messrs.

Integration Overview

We anticipate the acquisition of TD Ameritrade will significantly increase our scale to help support the Company’s ongoing efforts to enhance the client experience, provide deeper resources for individual investors as well as RIAs, and continue to improve our operating efficiency. With a combined total for Schwab and TD Ameritrade of approximately $6 trillion in client assets and 29 million brokerage accounts at the time of closing, we expect our enhanced scale will lower total expenses as a percentage of client assets. Combining the respective strengths of Schwab and TD Ameritrade will enable the Company to invest in enhanced client experience capabilities and further our financial success to the benefit of clients, employees, and stockholders.

The integration of Schwab’s and TD Ameritrade’s operations is expected to occur over 18 to 36 months from the date of acquisition, though planning for integration has been underway since the acquisition was announced on November 25, 2019. In October, the Company began efforts to reduce overlapping or redundant roles across the two firms and to rationalize branch locations of Schwab and TDA. These and other integration activities are expected to continue throughout the integration process. Until the integration is complete, Schwab and TD Ameritrade will continue to operate separate broker-dealers to serve their respective clients. Starting in the fourth quarter of 2020, TD Ameritrade will be incorporated into our two existing reportable segments.

Amended IDA Agreement and Bank Deposit Account Fee Revenue

In accordance with the amended IDA agreement with the TD Depository Institutions, cash held in TD Ameritrade’s eligible customer accounts will continue to be swept to money market deposit accounts at the TD Depository Institutions. Schwab will provide marketing, recordkeeping and support services to the TD Depository Institutions with respect to the money market deposit accounts for which Schwab receives an aggregate monthly fee, determined by reference to certain yields, less a service fee on client cash deposits held at the TD Depository Institutions, FDIC deposit assessments, and interest on deposits paid to customers. Under the amended IDA, the service fee on client cash deposits held at the TD Depository Institutions was reduced by 40%, from 25 basis points to 15 basis points for the life of the agreement. Under TDA’s prior IDA agreement, TDA had floors in place which enabled them to carve-out up to $20 billion of floating-rate investments fromsatisfy the applicable service fee during specified low-rate environments. Pursuant toeligibility requirements 180 days after the amended IDA agreement,Federal Reserve’s finding, the 15 basis point service fee will be applied across all designated fixed and floating IDA balances.

Beginning in the fourth quarteragency may require divestiture of 2020, we expect to begin recognizing significant bank deposit account fee revenue pursuant to the amended IDA agreement with the TD Depository Institutions and TDA’s existing agreements with other third-party depository institutions. The net fees earned by Schwab under these arrangements will be included in a new revenue line item in our consolidated statement of income titled bank deposit account fees. In addition, as part of our management of interest rate risk, Schwab will begin performing interest rate sensitivity analysis on our bank deposit account fee revenue.

Beginning July 1, 2021, Schwab will have the option to begin reducing deposit balances swept to the TD Depository Institutions by up to $10 billion over each 12-month period, subject to certain limitations and adjustments, migrating them instead to Schwab’s balance sheet. Our ability to migrate these balances to our balance sheet is dependent on certain binding limitations, including Schwab’s obligation to move all of the uninsured IDA sweep balances on that date, andFHC’s depository institution subsidiaries or, alternatively, the requirement that Schwab can only move floating IDA balances. Schwab’s initial reduction will also be affected by the net change in IDA sweep balances between the effective dateFHC may elect to cease all of the IDA agreement and June 30, 2021.its FHC Activities. In addition, Schwab also mustif any depository institution controlled by an FHC fails to maintain a minimum $50 billion IDA sweep balance through June 2031, and at least 80% ofa “Satisfactory” rating under the IDA sweep balances must be designated as fixed-rate obligations through June 2026.

Planned Change of CSC Headquarters

Subsequent to September 30, 2020 and in conjunction with the close of the acquisition of TD Ameritrade, CSC’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to Section 1.02 of the Company’s Fourth Restated Bylaws to change our corporate headquarters from San Francisco to Westlake, Texas, effective January 1, 2021. Opened in late 2019, the Westlake location provides a more centrally located hub for the Company given our nationwide presence across our network of branches and operations centers.

Current Regulatory Environment andOther Developments

Effective March 20, 2020, CSB and Charles Schwab Premier Bank, SSB (CSPB) converted to Texas-chartered state savings banks. CSB and CSPB became members of the Federal Reserve and are subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve and the Texas Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending.

In September 2020, the Federal Reserve issued a notice of proposed rulemaking that, among other things, would amend the stress testing rules for covered savings and loan holding companies to provide that their capital distribution assumptions would match those of comparable bank holding companies.The rule proposal also solicits feedback on whether large savings and loan holding companies (SLHCs) should be subject to the capital planning and stress capital buffer requirements that apply to large bank holding companies. The comment period for the proposed rule and SLHC questions ends on November 20, 2020.

In October 2020, the Federal Reserve, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the FDIC issued a final net stable funding ratio (NSFR) rule that will require certain banking organizations with $100 billion or more in consolidated assets to maintain a minimum level of stable funding based on the liquidity characteristics of the banking organization’s assets, commitments, and derivative exposures over a one-year time horizon. The NSFR will be expressed as a ratio of a banking organization’s available stable funding to its required stable funding. Banking organizations subject to the full requirement must maintain an NSFR equal to at least 1.0 on an ongoing basis. As a banking organization subject to Category III standards with less than $75 billion in average weighted short-term wholesale funding, CSC will be subject to a reduced NSFR requirement equal to 85% of the full requirement. The rule will take effect on July 1, 2021 and beginning in 2023, holding companies regulated by the Federal Reserve will be required to publicly disclose their NSFR levels semiannually. The Company does not expect the NSFR rule to have a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.FHC Activities.

Net Interest Revenue

Revenue on interest-earning assets is affected by various factors, such as the composition of assets, prevailing interest rates and spreads at the time of origination or purchase, changes in interest rates on floating rate securities and loans, and changes in prepayment levels for mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities and loans.

LateAs the U.S. economic recovery continued in the first quarternine months of 2020, the Federal Reserve cut the federal funds target overnight rate twice, for a total of 150 basis points to near zero; on the longer-end of the curve, the 10-year Treasury rate declined by over 120 basis points. Lower2021, interest rates across maturities persisted from the end of the first quarter through the third quarter of 2020, while credit spreads also compressed. Moreover, changes in the economic environmentremained historically low. Short-term rates remained near zero throughout the first nine months of 20202021; longer-term interest rates began to rise early in the year, and remained largely unchanged in the third quarter. In addition, elevated levels of prepayments on mortgage-backed securities, though moderating slightly in the third quarter, persisted throughout the period and resulted in accelerated reinvestment of the available for sale (AFS) portfolio. Moreover, Schwab saw significant growth in new client brokerage accounts and net new client assets throughout the first nine months of 2021, driving growth in Schwab’s interest-earning assets. At the same time, client engagement in the equity markets increased and clients were net buyers of equity securities and other investment products, resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic drove significantly higher levelsin outflows of client cash sweep balances. As these balances rapidly accumulatedand partially offsetting the growth in the first quarter of 2020, the Company initially placed a substantial amount in excess reserves held at the Federal Reserve, and subsequently deployed a significant amount of this cash build-up in the second and third quarters, as part of AFS securities purchases totaling $73.9 billion and $45.2 billion, respectively. These purchases were made at rates below the average yield on the existing AFS portfolio due to the current low interest rate environment. As of September 30, 2020, the Company held $21.9 billion, or 6.8% of total deposits, in excess reserves, ending the quarter within our longer-term objective of approximately 5-7%.interest-earning assets.

(1) Amounts have been calculated based on amortized cost.
(2) Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2020, securities lending revenue has been reclassified from broker-related receivables and other revenue. Securities lending expense has been reclassified from other expense. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to reflect this change.
(3) Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2020, broker-related receivables were removed from total interest earning assets and netted against non-interest-bearing funding sources, resulting in an immaterial reduction to total interest-earning assets and total funding sources. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to reflect this change.
(4) Interest revenue or expense was less than $500 thousand in the period or periods presented.

Net interest revenue decreased $288increased $687 million, or 18%51%, and $617 million,$1.6 billion or 13%37% in the third quarter and first nine months of 20202021 compared to the same periods in 2019,2020. These increases were due primarilylargely to lower averagesignificant growth in margin loans and securities lending revenue, driven significantly by our acquisition of TD Ameritrade. The increases in net interest revenue were also supported by overall growth in interest-earning assets, including growth in investment yieldsportfolio balances and bank loans, partially offset by growth in interest-earning assets.lower average yields. Accelerated premium amortization onstemming from the elevated prepayment of mortgage-related debt securities in the AFS portfolio partially offset the growth in net interest revenue. TD Ameritrade contributed $534 million and $1.6 billion of net interest revenue during the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 also contributed to the reduction in net interest revenue, as the decline in long-term interest rates in the first nine months of 2020 resulted in higher prepayments of mortgage-related debt securities.2021, respectively.

Average interest-earning assets for the third quarter and first nine months of 20202021 were higher by 45%44% and 29%54%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. These increases in average interest-earning assets were primarily driven by2020. This increase resulted from higher client cash balances in bank deposits and payables to brokerage clients.clients, due to heightened client cash balances driven by the low interest rate environment and strong net new client cash inflows, as well as our 2020 acquisitions of TD Ameritrade and USAA-IMCO.

Our net interest margin was 1.38% and 1.64%increased to 1.45% during the third quarter of 2021 from 1.38% during the same period in 2020, and decreased for the first nine months of 2020, respectively, down2021 to 1.46% from 2.43% during both1.64% in the third quarteryear-to-date period in 2020. The improvement in the quarter-to-date net interest margin was due primarily to increased margin utilization and firstsecurities lending revenue, which comprised 39% and 40% of net interest revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, growing from 12% of 2019. These decreases were driven primarily by lowernet interest revenue for both comparable periods in 2020. Lower yields received on interest-earning assets, in part due largely to purchases of investment securities in 2020 and 2021 at rates below the Federal Reserve’s 2019average yield on the AFS portfolio, more than offset the benefit of growth in margin utilization and 2020 interest rate reductions and higher premium amortization on mortgage-related debt securities. The amount of any furthersecurities lending for the year-to-date period, resulting in an overall decrease in net interest margin compression and resulting net interest revenue is dependent on a numberfor the first nine months of factors, including changes2021 relative to LIBOR, premium amortization, and growththe same period in client cash balances.2020.

Order flow revenue was $67 million and $34 million during the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, and $194 million and $99 million duringDATs throughout the first nine months of 20202021. This increased trading activity and 2019, respectively.

Overall, TD Ameritrade contributed $743 million and $2.5 billion of trades throughout the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 relative to the same periods in 2019.

Other Revenue

Othertrading revenue includes exchange processing fees, certain service fees, software fees, and non-recurring gains. Other revenue increased $15 million, or 31%, in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019 primarily due to increases in exchange processing fees and other service fees.

Other revenue decreased $37 million, or 19% in the first nine months of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 primarily driven by a gain from the sale of a portfolio management and reporting software solution for advisors to Tamarac Inc. recognized in the second quarter of 2019, a gain from the assignment of leased office space recognized in the first quarter of 2019, and an increase in the allowance for credit losses on bank loans in the first quarter of 2020. These decreases in the first nine months of 2020 compared with the same period in 2019 were partially offset by higher exchange processing fees due to higher trade volume.

Asset managementheadcount to support our expanding client base and administration fees decreased primarily due to lower Mutual Fund OneSource® balances. Trading revenue decreased primarilyservice levels amidst heightened client engagement, as well as annual merit increases and higher bonus accrual. For Investor Services, total expenses excluding interest also increased for the year-to-date period as a result of our hiring former USAA employees in connection with the Company’s 2019 pricing actions, partially offset by higher trading volume. The year to date decrease in other revenue was primarily driven by a gain from the sale2020 acquisition of a portfolio management and reporting software solution for advisors to Tamarac Inc. recognized in the second quarterassets of 2019, and a gain from the assignment of leased office space recognized in the first quarter of 2019.

Expenses excluding interest remained relatively flat, decreasing 3% and increasing 1% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. Compensation and benefits decreased primarily due to third quarter of 2019 severance charges and a lower corporate bonus accrual in 2020, partially offset by increased headcount and the Company’s March 2020 payment of $1,000 to all non-officer employees to help them cover costs incurred due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Largely offsetting this decrease were increases in professional services, depreciation and amortization, and communications. The increase in professional services was driven by expenses related to our acquisitions and overall growth in the business. Depreciation and amortization increased due to higher amortization of purchased and internally developed software, and higher depreciation of buildings and equipment related to expansion of our campuses. Communications expense increased due to higher customer trade volumes and overall growth in our business and client base.USAA-IMCO.


RISK MANAGEMENT

Schwab’s business activities expose usit to a variety of risks, including operational, compliance, credit, market, liquidity, and complianceliquidity risks. The Company has a comprehensive risk management program to identify and manage these risks and their associated potential for financial and reputational impact.

As part of our integration of TD Ameritrade, the Company continues to align TD Ameritrade’s risk management practices with Schwab’s risk appetite. Our integration work includes evaluating new or changed risks impacting the combined company, and may involve modifications to our existing risk management processes. Though integration work continues, the Company’s operations, inclusive of TD Ameritrade, remain consistent with our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework.

For a discussion of our risk management programs, see Item 7 – Risk Management in the 20192020 Form 10-K.

Interest Rate Risk Simulations

Net Interest Revenue Simulation

For our net interest revenue sensitivity analysis, we use net interest revenue simulation modeling techniques to evaluate and manage the effect of changing interest rates. The simulations include all balance sheet interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities. Key assumptions include the projection of interest rate scenarios with rate floors, prepayment speeds of mortgage-related investments, repricing of financial instruments, and reinvestment of matured or paid-down securities and loans.

Net interest revenue is affected by various factors, such as the distribution and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the spread between yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, which may reprice at different times or by different amounts, and the spread between short and long-term interest rates. Interest-earning assets primarily include investment securities, margin loans, and bank loans. These assets are sensitive to changes in interest rates and changes in prepayment levels that tend to increase in a declining rate environment and decrease in a rising rate environment. Because we establish the rates paid on certain brokerage client cash balances and bank deposits and the rates charged on certain margin and bank loans, and control the composition of our investment securities, we have some ability to manage our net interest spread, depending on competitive factors and market conditions.

Net interest revenue sensitivity analysis assumes that the asset and liability structure of the consolidated balance sheet would not be changed as a result of the simulated changes in interest rates. As we actively manage the consolidated balance sheet and interest rate exposure, in all likelihood we would take steps to manage additional interest rate exposure that could result from changes in the interest rate environment.

The following table shows the simulated change to net interest revenue change over the next 12 months beginning September 30, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 of a gradual 100 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates relative to prevailing market rates at the end of each reporting period:

Net interest revenue sensitivities as of September 30, 2021 remained relatively consistent with December 31, 2020, reflects a significantly lower interest rate curve from the fourth quarter of 2019 due to the global economic impact from the COVID-19 pandemic.continued low interest rate environment. Higher short-term interest rates would positively impact net interest revenue as yields on interest-earning assets are expected to rise faster than the cost of funding sources. A decline in interest rates could negatively impact the yield on the Company’s investment and loan portfolio to a greater degree than any offsetting reduction in interest expense from funding sources, compressing net interest margin.

In addition to measuring the effect of a gradual 100 basis point parallel increase or decrease in current interest rates, we regularly simulate the effects of larger parallel- and non-parallel shifts in interest rates on net interest revenue.

Bank Deposit Account Fees Simulation

Consistent with the presentation on the consolidated statement of income, the sensitivity of bank deposit account fee revenue to interest rate changes is assessed separately from the net interest revenue simulation described above. As of September 30, 2021, simulated changes in bank deposit account fee revenue from gradual 100 basis point changes in market interest rates relative to prevailing market rates did not have a significant impact on the Company’s total net revenues.

Economic Value of Equity Simulation

Management also uses economic value of equity (EVE) simulations to measure interest rate risk. EVE sensitivity measures the long-term impact of interest rate changes on the net present value of assets and liabilities. EVE is calculated by subjecting the balance sheet to hypothetical instantaneous shifts in the level of interest rates. This analysis is highly dependent upon asset and liability assumptions based on historical behaviors as well as our expectations of the economic environment. Key assumptions in our EVE calculation include projection of interest rate scenarios with rate floors, prepayment speeds of mortgage-related investments, term structure models of interest rates, non-maturity deposit behavior, and pricing assumptions.

As a result of the low Our net interest rate environment in the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, the downward assessments of our net interestrevenue, bank deposit account fee revenue, and EVE simulations as of September 30, 2020 reflectedreflect the assumption of non-negative investment yields.

Through our IDA agreement and bank deposit account agreements with other third-party depository institutions resulting from our acquisition of TD Ameritrade, we expect to start earning significant bank deposit account fee revenue beginning in the fourth quarter of 2020. Though accounted for and presented separately from net interest revenue, bank deposit account fee revenue will be sensitive to interest rates. Therefore, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2020, management will evaluate bank deposit account fee revenue as part of Schwab’s comprehensive management of our exposure to interest rate risk, through modeling and simulation analysis.

See Overview and Item 1 – Notes 3 and 17 for additional information on the Company’s acquisition of TD Ameritrade and the amended IDA agreement.

Expected Phase-out of LIBOR

The Company has established a firm-wide team to address the likely discontinuationphasing-out of LIBOR. As part of our efforts, we have assessed our LIBOR exposures, the largest of which are certain investment securities and loans. In purchasing new investment securities, we ensure that appropriate fall-back language is in the security’s prospectus in the event that LIBOR is unavailable or deemed unreliable, and we have sold certain securities lacking appropriate fall-back language. We are updating loan agreements to ensure new LIBOR-based loans adequately provide for an alternative to LIBOR. Furthermore, we plan to phase-out the use of LIBOR as a reference rate in our new lending products before the end of December 2021. Consistent with our “Through Clients’ Eyes” strategy, our focus throughout2021, per guidance from the LIBOR transition process is to ensure clients are treated fairly and consistently as this major change is occurring in the financial markets. The market transition process has not yet progressed to a point at which the impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements of LIBOR’s discontinuation can be estimated.Federal Reserve Board.

Liquidity Risk

Funding Sources

Schwab’s primary source of funds is cash generated by client activity which includes bank deposits and cash balances in client brokerage accounts. These funds are used to purchase investment securities and extend loans to clients.

Other sources of funds may include cash flows from operations, maturities and sales of investment securities, repayments on loans, securities lending of assets held in client brokerage accounts, repurchase agreements, and cash provided by external financing.

To meet daily funding needs, we maintain liquidity in the form of overnight cash deposits and short-term investments. For unanticipated liquidity needs, we also maintain a buffer of highly liquid investments, including U.S. Treasury securities.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Schwab seeks to manage capital to a level and composition sufficient to support execution of our business strategy, including anticipated balance sheet growth inclusive of migration of IDA balances (see further discussion below), providing financial support to our subsidiaries, and sustained access to the capital markets, while at the same time meeting our regulatory capital requirements and serving as a source of financial strength to our banking subsidiaries. Schwab’s primary sources of capital are funds generated by the operations of subsidiaries and securities issuances by CSC in the capital markets. To ensure that Schwab has sufficient capital to absorb unanticipated losses or declines in asset values, we have adopted a policy to remain well capitalized even in stressed scenarios.

As a result of the significant inflowinflows of client cash in 2020, our Tier 1 Leverage Ratio declined below our long-term operating objective for consolidated CSC of 6.75%-7.00%, ending 2020 at 6.3%. The Company’s issuances of preferred stock and strength in earnings in the first nine months of 2020,2021 helped maintain our consolidated Tier 1 Leverage Ratio, declined from 7.3%as we ended the third quarter at year-end 2019 to 5.7% at September 30, 2020,6.3%. Though still below our long-term operating objective, of 6.75%-7.00% butthis ratio is well above the regulatory minimum of 4.00%.minimum. The pace of our return to theour long-term operating objective over time depends on a number of factors including the overall size of the Company’s balance sheet, earnings, and capital issuance and deployment. We continue to manage our capital position in accordance with our policy and strategy described above and in further detail in the 2019our 2020 Form 10-K.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

CSC and CSBour banking subsidiaries are subject to various capital requirements set by regulatory agencies as discussed in further detail in the 20192020 Form 10-K and in Item 1 – Note 15.17. As of September 30, 2020,2021, CSC and CSBour banking subsidiaries are considered well capitalized.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with GAAP,generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contain references to the non-GAAP financial measures described below. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information about the financial performance of the Company, and facilitate meaningful comparison of Schwab’s results in the current period to both historic and future results. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.

Schwab’s use of non-GAAP measures is reflective of certain adjustments made to GAAP financial measures as described below.
Non-GAAP Adjustment or MeasureDefinitionUsefulness to ManagementInvestors and InvestorsUses by Management
Acquisition and integration-related costs and amortization of acquired intangible assetsSchwab adjusts certain GAAP financial measures to exclude the impact of acquisition and integration-related costs incurred as a result of the Company’s acquisitions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and, where applicable, the income tax effect of these expenses.

Adjustments made to exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets are reflective of all acquired intangible assets, which were recorded as part of purchase accounting. These acquired intangible assets contribute to the Company’s revenue generation. Amortization of acquired intangible assets will continue in future periods over their remaining useful lives.
We exclude acquisition and integration-related costs and amortization of acquired intangible assets for the purpose of calculating certain non-GAAP measures because we believe doing so provides additional transparency of Schwab’s ongoing operations, and may beis useful in both evaluating the operating performance of the business and facilitating comparison of results with prior and future periods.

Acquisition and integration-related costs fluctuate based on the timing of acquisitions and integration activities, thereby limiting comparability of results among periods, and are not representative of the costs of running the Company’s ongoing business. Amortization of acquired intangible assets is excluded because management does not believe it is indicative of the Company’s underlying operating performance.
Return on tangible common equityReturn on tangible common equity represents annualized adjusted net income available to common stockholders as a percentage of average tangible common equity. Tangible common equity represents common equity less goodwill, acquired intangible assets – net, and related deferred tax liabilities.Acquisitions typically result in the recognition of significant amounts of goodwill and acquired intangible assets. We believe return on tangible common equity may be useful to investors as a supplemental measure to facilitate assessing capital efficiency and returns relative to the composition of Schwab’s balance sheet.

Beginning in 2021, the Company also uses adjusted diluted EPS and return on tangible common equity as components of performance criteria for employee bonus and certain executive management incentive compensation arrangements. The following tables present reconciliationsCompensation Committee of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures:

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes

Pursuant to Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and other applicable regulations, Schwab maintains cash or qualified securities in segregated reserve accounts for the exclusive benefit of clients. Cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes include resale agreements, which are collateralized by U.S. Government and agency securities.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)
Resale agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing transactions that are recorded at their contractual amounts plus accrued interest. The Company obtains collateral with a market value equal to or in excess of the principal amountloaned and accrued interest under resale agreements. Collateral is valued daily by the Company, with additional collateral obtained to ensure full collateralization. Cash and investments segregated also include certificates of deposit and U.S. Government securities. Certificates of deposit and U.S. Government securities are recorded at fair value.

Schwab applies the practical expedient based on collateral maintenance provisions under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, in estimating an allowance for credit losses for resale agreements. This practical expedient can be applied for financial assets with collateral maintenance provisions requiring the borrower to continually adjust the amount of the collateral securing the financial assets as a result of fair value changes in the collateral. In accordance with the practical expedient, when the Company reasonably expects that borrowers (or counterparties, as applicable) will replenish the collateral as required, there is no expectation of credit losses when the collateral’s fair value is greater than the amortized cost of the financial asset. If the amortized cost exceeds the fair value of collateral, then credit losses are estimated only on the unsecured portion.

Receivables from brokerage clients

Receivables from brokerage clients include margin loans to securities brokerage clients and other trading receivables from clients. Margin loans are collateralized by client securities and are carried at the amount receivable, net of an allowance for credit losses. Collateral is required to be maintained at specified minimum levels at all times. The Company monitors margin levels and requires clients to provide additional collateral, or reduce margin positions, to meet minimum collateral requirements if the fair value of the collateral changes. Schwab applies the practical expedient based on collateral maintenance provisions in estimating an allowance for credit losses for margin loans. An allowance for credit losses on unsecured or partially secured receivables from brokerage clients is estimated based on the aging of those receivables. Unsecured balances due to confirmed fraud are reserved immediately. The Company’s policy is to charge off any delinquent margin loans, including the accrued interest on such loans, no later than at 90 days past due. Accrued interest charged off is recognized as credit loss expense and is included in other expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Clients with margin loans have agreed to allow Schwab to pledge collateralized securities in accordance with federal regulations. The collateral is not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The allowance for credit losses for receivables from brokerage clients and related activity were immaterial for all periods presented.

AFS investment securities are recorded at fair value and unrealized gains and losses, other than losses related to credit factors, are reported, net of taxes, in AOCI included in stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses from sales of AFS investment securities are determined on a specific identification basis and are included in other revenue.

An AFS investment security is impaired if the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. Management evaluates AFS debt investment securities with unrealized losses to determine whether the security impairment has resulted from a credit loss or other factors. This evaluation is performed quarterly on an individual security basis.

The evaluation of whether credit loss exists is inherently judgmental. This evaluation considers multiple factors including: the financial condition of the issuer; the payment structure of the security; external credit ratings; our internal credit ratings; the security’s market implied credit spread; for asset-backed securities, the amount of credit support provided by the structure of the security to absorb credit losses on the underlying collateral; recent events specific to the issuer and the issuer’s industry; and whether all scheduled principal and interest payments have been received.

If management determines that the impairment of an AFS debt investment security (or a portion of the impairment) is related to credit losses, an allowance for credit losses will be recorded for that security through a charge to earnings. The allowance for credit losses is measured as the difference between the amortized cost and the present value of expected cash flows and is limited to the difference between amortized cost and the fair value of the security. The Company estimates credit losses on a discounted cash flow basis using the security’s effective interest rate. Changes in the allowance for credit losses will be recorded through earnings in the period of the change.

If it is determined that the Company intends to sell the impaired security or if it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell such security before any anticipated recovery of the amortized cost basis, any allowance for credit losses of that security will be written off and the amortized cost basis of the security will be written down to fair value with any incremental impairment recorded through earnings.

The Company excludes accrued interest from the fair value and the amortized cost basis of the AFS debt investment securities for the purposes of identifying and measuring impairment of the securities. AFS debt investment securities are placed on nonaccrual status on a timely basis and any accrued interest receivable is reversed through interest income.

Securities borrowed and securities loaned

Securities borrowed transactions require Schwab to deliver cash to the lender in exchange for securities; the receivables from these transactions are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For securities loaned, Schwab receives collateral in the form of cash in an amount equal to or greater than the market value of securities loaned; the payables from these transactions are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The market value of securities borrowed and loaned are monitored, with additional collateral obtained or refunded to ensure full collateralization. Fees received or paid are recorded in interest revenue or interest expense. Schwab applies the practical expedient based on collateral maintenance provisions in estimating an allowance for credit losses for securities borrowed receivables.

Bank loans and related allowance for credit losses

Bank loans are recorded at their contractual principal amounts and include unamortized direct origination costs or net purchase discounts or premiums. Direct origination costs and premiums and discounts are recognized in interest revenue using the effective interest method over the contractual life of the loan and are adjusted for actual prepayments. Additionally, management estimates an allowance for credit losses, which is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to arrive at the amount expected to be collected. The bank loan portfolio includes three portfolio segments: residential real estate, pledged asset lines (PALs), and other loans. We use these segments when developing and documenting our methodology for determining the allowance for credit losses. Residential real estate portfolio segment is divided into two classes of financing receivables for purposes of monitoring and assessing credit risk: First Mortgages and HELOCs.

Schwab records an allowance for credit losses through a charge to earnings based on our estimate of current expected credit losses for the existing portfolio. We review the allowance for credit losses quarterly, taking into consideration current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, the composition of the existing loan portfolio, past loss experience, and any other risks inherent in the portfolio to ensure that the allowance for credit losses is maintained at an appropriate level.

PALs are collateralized by marketable securities with liquid markets. Credit lines are over-collateralized and borrowers are required to maintain collateral at specified levels at all times. The required collateral levels are determined based on the type of security pledged. Additionally, collateral market value is monitored on a daily basis and a borrower’s credit line may be reduced or collateral may be liquidated if the collateral is in danger of falling below specified levels. As such, the credit loss inherent within this portfolio is limited. Schwab applies the practical expedient based on collateral maintenance provisions in estimating an allowance for credit losses for PALs.

The methodology to establish an allowance for credit losses for residential real estate portfolio segment utilizes statistical models that estimate prepayments, defaults, and expected losses for this portfolio segment based on predicted behavior of individual loans within the segment. The methodology also evaluates concentrations in the classes of financing receivables, including loan products within those classes, year of origination, and geographical distribution of collateral.

Expected credit losses are forecast using a loan-level simulation of the delinquency status of the loans over the term of the loans. The simulation starts with the current relevant risk indicators, including the current delinquent status of each loan, the estimated current LTV ratio (Estimated Current LTV) of each loan, the term and structure of each loan, current key interest rates including U.S. Treasury and LIBOR rates, and borrower FICO scores. The more significant variables in the simulation include delinquency roll rates, loss severity, housing prices, interest rates, and unemployment rate. Delinquency roll rates (i.e., the rates at which loans transition through delinquency stages and ultimately result in a loss) are estimated from our historical loss experience adjusted for current trends and market information, which includes current and forecast conditions. Loss severity (i.e., loss given default) estimates are based on our historical loss experience and market trends, both current and

forecast. The loss severity estimate used in the allowance for credit loss methodology for HELOCs is higher than that used in the methodology for First Mortgages. Housing price trends are derived from historical home price indices and econometric forecasts of future home values. Factors affecting the home price index include housing inventory, unemployment, interest rates, and inflation expectations. Interest rate projections are based on the current term structure of interest rates and historical volatilities to project various possible future interest rate paths. The unemployment rate forecast is typically based on the recent consensus of regularly published economic surveys. Linear interpolation is applied to revert to long-term trends after the reasonable and supportable forecast period.

The methodology described above results in loss factors that are applied to the amortized cost basis of loans, exclusive of accrued interest receivable, to determine the allowance for credit losses for First Mortgages and HELOCs.

Management also estimates a liability for expected credit losses on the Company’s commitments to extend credit related to unused HELOCs and commitments to purchase first mortgages. See Note 10 for additional information on these commitments. The liability is calculated by applying the loss factors described above to the commitments expected to be funded and is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The liability for expected credit losses on these commitments and related activity were immaterial for all periods presented.

Schwab considers loan modifications in which it makes an economic concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty to be troubled debt restructurings (TDRs).

Nonaccrual and Nonperforming loans

First Mortgages, HELOCs, PALs, and other loans are considered past due when a payment is due and unpaid for 30 days. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status upon becoming 90 days past due as to interest or principal (unless the loans are well-secured and in the process of collection), or when the full timely collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain, including loans to borrowers who have filed for bankruptcy. HELOC loans secured by a second lien are placed on non-accrual status if the associated first lien is 90 days or more delinquent, regardless of the payment status of the HELOC. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued interest receivable is written off by reversing interest income and the loan is accounted for on the cash or cost recovery method until qualifying for return to accrual status. Generally, a nonaccrual loan may be returned to accrual status when all delinquent interest and principal is repaid and the borrower demonstrates a sustained period of performance, or when the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection and collectability is no longer doubtful. Loans on nonaccrual status and other real estate owned are considered nonperforming assets.

Loan Charge-Offs

The Company charges off a loan in the period that it is deemed uncollectible and records a reduction in the allowance for credit losses and the loan balance. Our charge-off policy for First Mortgage and HELOC loans is to assess the value of the property when the loan has been delinquent for 180 days or has been discharged in bankruptcy proceedings, regardless of whether the property is in foreclosure, and charge-off the amount of the loan balance in excess of the estimated current value of the underlying property less estimated costs to sell. The Company’s policy for PALs is to charge off any delinquent loans no later than at 90 days past due.

New Accounting Standards

AdoptionThe Company did not adopt any material new accounting standards during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. In addition, there are no new accounting standards not yet adopted that are material to the Company as of New Accounting StandardsSeptember 30, 2021.
StandardDescriptionDate of AdoptionEffects on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”Provides guidance for recognizing impairment of most debt instruments measured at amortized cost, including loans and HTM debt securities. Requires estimating current expected credit losses (CECL) over the remaining life of an instrument or a portfolio of instruments with similar risk characteristics based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts. The initial estimate of, and the subsequent changes in, CECL will be recognized as credit loss expense through current earnings and will be reflected as an allowance for credit losses offsetting the carrying value of the financial instrument(s) on the balance sheet. Amends the other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) model for AFS debt securities by requiring the use of an allowance, rather than directly reducing the carrying value of the security, and eliminating consideration of the length of time such security has been in an unrealized loss position as a factor in concluding whether a credit loss exists.

Adoption requires modified retrospective transition through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the entity applies the new guidance except that a prospective transition is required for AFS debt securities for which an OTTI has been recognized prior to the effective date.
January 1, 2020The Company adopted CECL as of January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective method. The adoption of CECL resulted in an immaterial increase in the Company’s allowance for credit losses and an increase in the liability for expected credit losses on commitments to extend credit, both primarily related to First Mortgages and HELOCs. The adoption impact was recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings as of the date of adoption.
ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles– Goodwill and Other–Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)”Aligns the criteria for capitalizing implementation costs for cloud computing arrangements (CCA) that are service contracts with internal-use software that is developed or purchased and CCAs that include an internal-use software license. This guidance requires that the capitalized implementation costs be recognized over the period of the CCA service contract, subject to impairment evaluation on an ongoing basis.

The guidance prescribes the balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flow classification of the capitalized implementation costs and related amortization expense, and requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures.

Adoption provides for retrospective or prospective application to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption.
January 1, 2020The Company adopted this guidance prospectively on January 1, 2020. As such, adoption had no impact on the Company’s financial statements. Historically, Schwab has expensed implementation costs as they are incurred for CCAs that are service contracts. Therefore, adopting this guidance will change the Company’s accounting treatment for these types of implementation costs going forward.

3.    Business Acquisitions

TD Ameritrade

Subsequent to September 30,On October 6, 2020, Schwab completed its previously announced acquisition of TD Ameritrade effective October 6, 2020.for $21.8 billion in stock. As a result of the acquisition, TDA Holding became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSC. TD Ameritrade provides securities brokerage services, including trade execution, clearing services, and margin lending, through its broker-dealer subsidiaries, and futures and foreign exchange trade execution services through its FCM and FDM subsidiary. TD Ameritrade also provides cash sweep and deposit account products through the IDA agreement, as well as bank deposit account agreements with other third-party depository institutions. The Company anticipates this transaction will add scale to help support the Company’s ongoing efforts to enhance the client experience, provide deeper resources for individual investors as well as RIAs, and continue to improve its operating efficiency. The acquisition brings together approximately $6 trillion in total client assets and 29 million brokerage accounts at the time closing.
In exchange for each share of TD Ameritrade common stock, TD Ameritrade stockholders received 1.0837 shares of CSC common stock, except for TD Bank and its affiliates which received a portion in nonvoting common stock. In connection with the transaction, Schwab issued approximately 586 million common shares to TD Ameritrade stockholders consisting of approximately 509 million shares of common stock and approximately 77 million shares of nonvoting common stock. Subsequently, TD Bank and its affiliates exchanged common stock for nonvoting common stock and held approximately 79 million shares of nonvoting common stock as described below.of September 30, 2021. For further details on the new class of nonvoting common stock, see Note 17.19 in the 2020 Form 10-K.

Provisional information regarding the acquisition that was available in the limited time since October 6, 2020 is provided below. DueThere have been no adjustments to the timing of the close of the acquisition, certain information described in ASC 805, Business Combinations is not yet available and will be disclosed in subsequent periods.
The fair value of the purchase price transferred upon completion of the acquisition included the fair value of CSC common stock and nonvoting common stock that was issued to TD Ameritrade stockholders, as well as the fair value of assumed TD Ameritrade equity awards attributable to pre-combination services. The provisional purchase price was calculated as follows:
Fair value of consideration for TD Ameritrade outstanding common stock$21,664 
Fair value of replaced TD Ameritrade equity awards attributable to pre-combination services (1)
94 
Provisional purchase price$21,758 
(1) Share-based awards held by TD Ameritrade employees prior to the acquisition date were assumed by Schwab and converted into share-based awards with respect to CSC common stock, after giving effect to the exchange ratio of 1.0837. Such share-based awards are otherwise subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately before the merger, except for performance-based restricted stock units which were converted into time-based restricted stock units. The portionfair value estimates presented in Note 3 of the fair value of the share-based awards that relates to services performed by the employees prior to the acquisition date is included in the purchase price.2020 Form 10-K and those amounts are now final.

The unaudited pro forma results reflect after-tax adjustments for acquisition costs, amortization and accordingly,depreciation of acquired intangible and tangible assets, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, except for certain exceptions to the recognition principle of acquisition accounting, such as leases, share-based payments, and income taxes, asimpact of the date of acquisition. The determination of fair values requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The estimated fair values ofamended IDA agreement which reduced the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are considered provisional and are basedservice fee on currently available information. The Company believes that the information available provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed; however, these provisional estimates may be adjusted upon the availability of new information regarding facts and circumstances which existedclient cash deposits held at the acquisition date. The Company expectsTD Depository Institutions to finalize the valuation of assets and liabilities as soon as practicable, but not later than one year15 basis points from the acquisition date. Any adjustments to the initial estimates of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed will be recorded as adjustments to the respective assets and liabilities, with the residual amounts allocated to goodwill.

The estimated fair values of real property, personal property, construction in progress, and land were determined using a sales comparison and cost approach, including consideration of functional and economic obsolescence. The Company estimated the weighted-average useful lives of the assets based on the current condition and expected future use of the assets. The estimated fair values of client relationships, existing technology, and trade names were estimated using a multi-period excess earnings approach, cost approach, and relief from royalty approach, respectively. The multi-period excess earnings method starts with a forecast of all of the expected future net cash flows associated with the asset, and the relief from royalty method starts with a forecast of the royalties saved25 basis points paid by the Company because it owns the asset. The forecasts are then adjusted to present value by applying an appropriate discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the cash flow streams. The cost approach uses replacement cost as an indicator of fair value.

USAA-IMCO
On May 26, 2020, the Company completed its acquisition of the assets of USAA-IMCO for $1.6 billion in cash. Along with the asset purchase agreement, the companies entered into a long-term referral agreement that makes Schwab the exclusive provider of wealth management and investment brokerage services for USAA members. The USAA-IMCO acquisition adds scale to the Company’s operations through the addition of over 1000000 brokerage and managed portfolio accounts with approximately $80 billion in client assets at the acquisition date. The transaction also provides Schwab the opportunity to further expand our client base by serving USAA’s members through the long-term referral agreement.

The Company accounted forfinalized the USAA-IMCO acquisition as a business combination under GAAP and accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. The determination of fair values requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The estimated fair valuesvaluation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are considered provisional and are based on currently available information. The Company believes that the information available provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed; however, these provisional estimates may be adjusted upon the availability of new information regarding facts and circumstances which existed atin the acquisition date. The Company expects to finalizein 2020. For details surrounding the valuation of assets and liabilities as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the acquisition date.

(1) The brokerage referral agreement has an initial term of 5 years and is automatically renewable for one-year increments thereafter.

The estimated fair values of customer relationships, the brokerage referral agreement, and the royalty-free license were estimated using the multi-period excess earnings, with-and-without, and relief from royalty methods, respectively. The multi-period excess earnings method starts with a forecast of all of the expected future net cash flows associated with the asset, and the relief from royalty method starts with a forecast of the royalties saved by the Company because it owns the asset. The with-and-without method quantifies the difference between forecasted cash flows with the asset and without the asset. The forecasts are then adjusted to present value by applying an appropriate discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the cash flow streams.

Goodwill recorded of $472 million, primarily attributable to the additional scale and anticipated synergies from the USAA-IMCO acquisition, was assigned to the Investor Services segment and will be deductible for tax purposes.

The Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income include total net revenues and net loss attributable to the USAA-IMCO acquisition of $99 million and $4 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and $138 million and $41 million, respectively, for the period May 26, 2020 through September 30, 2020.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company agreed to reimburse USAA for certain contract termination fees and severance costs incurred by USAA. These costs totaled $20 million, after post-closing adjustments, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and are included in other expense on the condensed consolidated statements of income. Additionally, the Company incurred various professional fees and other costs related to the USAA-IMCO acquisition, such as advisory, legal, and accounting fees. In total, the Company incurred acquisition and integration-related costs of $4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, and $52 million and $7 million, after post-closing adjustments, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which are primarily included in other expense, compensation and benefits, and professional services on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Credit Quality
In addition to monitoring delinquency, Schwab monitors the credit quality of First Mortgages and HELOCs by stratifying the portfolios by the following:
Year of origination;
Borrower FICO scores at origination (Origination FICO);
Updated borrower FICO scores (Updated FICO);
Loan-to-value (LTV) ratios at origination (Origination LTV); and
Estimated currentCurrent LTV ratios (Estimated Current LTV).
Borrowers’ FICO scores are provided by an independent third-party credit reporting service and generally updated quarterly. The Origination LTV and Estimated Current LTV for a HELOC include any first lien mortgage outstanding on the same property at the time of the HELOC’s origination. The Estimated Current LTV for each loan is updated on a monthly basis by reference to a home price appreciation index.

Substantially all of these mortgages have initial fixed interest rates for three to ten years and interest rates that adjust annually thereafter. Approximately 26%27% of the balance of these mortgages consisted of loans with interest-only payment terms. The interest rates on approximately 76%87% of the balance of these interest-only loans are not scheduled to reset for three or more years. Schwab’s mortgage loans do not include interest terms described as temporary introductory rates below current market rates.

At September 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, Schwab had $45$54 million and $46$43 million, respectively, of accrued interest on bank loans, which is excluded from the amortized cost basis of bank loans and included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The HELOC product has a 30-year loan term with an initial draw period of ten years from the date of origination. After the initial draw period, the balance outstanding at such time is converted to a 20-year amortizing loan. The interest rate during the initial draw period and the 20-year amortizing period is a floating rate based on the prime rate plus a margin.

The following table presents HELOCs converted to amortizing loans during each period presented:

At September 30, 2020, $7312021, $530 million of the HELOC portfolio was secured by second liens on the associated properties. Second lien mortgage loans typically possess a higher degree of credit risk given the subordination to the first lien holder in the event of default. In addition to the credit monitoring activities described previously, Schwab also monitors credit risk by reviewing the delinquency status of the first lien loan on the associated property. At September 30, 2020,2021, the borrowers on approximately 53%55% of HELOC loan balances outstanding only paid the minimum amount due.


7.    Variable Interest Entities
As of September 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, all of Schwab’s involvement with variable interest entities (VIEs) is through CSB’s Community Reinvestment Act (CRA)-related investments and most of thosethese are related to LIHTC investments. As part of CSB’s community reinvestment initiatives, CSB invests in funds that make equity investments in multifamily affordable housing properties and receives tax credits and other tax benefits for these investments.
Aggregate assets, liabilities and maximum exposure to loss

The aggregate assets, liabilities, and maximum exposure to loss from those VIEs in which Schwab holds a variable interest, but is not the primary beneficiary, are summarized in the table below:

(1) Aggregate assets and aggregate liabilities are included in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(2) Other CRA investments are accounted for as loans at amortized cost, equity method investments, AFS securities, or using the adjusted cost method. Aggregate assets are included in AFS securities, bank loans – net, or other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Schwab’s maximum exposure to loss would result from the loss of the investments, including any committed amounts. CSB’s funding of these remaining commitments is dependent upon the occurrence of certain conditions, and CSB expects to pay substantially all of these commitments between 20202021 and 2023.2024.

Guarantees and indemnifications: Schwab has clients that sell (i.e., write) listed option contracts that are cleared by the Options Clearing Corporation – a clearing house that establishes margin requirements on these transactions. We partially satisfy the margin requirements by arranging unsecured standby letter of credit agreements (LOCs), in favor of the Options Clearing Corporation, which are issued by several banks. At September 30, 2020,2021, the aggregate face amount of these LOCs totaled $15 million. There were 0no funds drawn under any of these LOCs at September 30, 2020.2021. In connection with its securities lending activities, Schwab is required to provide collateral to certain brokerage clients. The Company satisfies the collateral requirements by providing cash as collateral.

SchwabThe Company also provides guarantees to securities clearing houses and exchanges under standard membership agreements, which require members to guarantee the performance of other members. Under the agreements, if another member becomes unable to satisfy its obligations to the clearing houses and exchanges, other members would be required to meet shortfalls. Schwab’sThe Company’s liability under these arrangements is not quantifiable and may exceed the cash and securitiesamounts it has posted as collateral. At September 30, 2020, amounts posted as collateral with such clearing houses and exchanges included $242 million of U.S. Treasury securities, which are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The potential requirement for the Company to make payments under these arrangements is remote. Accordingly, 0no liability has been recognized for these guarantees.

The TD Ameritrade broker-dealer and FCM/FDM subsidiaries’ operations include the execution, settlement, and financing of various client securities, options, futures and foreign exchange transactions. These activities may expose the Company to credit risk and losses in the event the clients are unable to fulfill their contractual obligations. TD Ameritrade is a member of and provides guarantees to securities clearing houses and exchanges under standard membership agreements. TD Ameritrade also engages third-party firms to clear clients’ futures and options on futures transactions and to facilitate clients’ foreign exchange trading, and has agreed to indemnify these firms for any loss that they may incur from the client transactions introduced to them by TD Ameritrade. The potential requirement for the Company to make payments under these arrangements is remote. Accordingly, no liability has been recognized for these guarantees.

IDA agreement: The Company’s IDA agreement with the TD Depository Institutions became effective on October 6, 2020. The IDA agreement creates responsibilities of the Company and certain contingent obligations. Pursuant to the IDA agreement, cash held in eligible brokerage client accounts are swept off-balance sheet to money market deposit accounts at the TD Depository Institutions. Schwab provides marketing, recordkeeping and support services to the TD Depository Institutions with respect to the money market deposit accounts for which Schwab receives an aggregate monthly fee, determined by reference to certain yields, less a service fee on client cash deposits held at the TD Depository Institutions, FDIC insurance assessments, and interest on deposits paid to clients. Though unlikely, in the event the sweep arrangement fee computation were to result in a negative amount in any given month, Schwab would be required to pay the TD Depository Institutions.

The IDA agreement provides that, as of July 1, 2021, Schwab has the option to migrate up to $10 billion of IDA balances every 12 months to Schwab’s balance sheet, subject to certain limitations and adjustments. The Company’s ability to migrate IDA balances to its balance sheet is dependent upon multiple factors including having sufficient capital levels to sustain these incremental deposits and certain binding limitations specified in the IDA agreement, including the requirement that Schwab can only move IDA balances designated as floating-rate obligations. In addition, Schwab also must maintain a minimum $50 billion

IDA balance through June 2031, and at least 80% of the IDA balances must be designated as fixed-rate obligations through June 2026.

The total ending IDA balance was $142.0 billion as of September 30, 2021 and $154.1 billion as of December 31, 2020. If IDA balances were to decline below the required IDA balance minimum, Schwab could be required to direct additional sweep cash from its balance sheet to the IDA program. Through September 30, 2021, Schwab had moved $10.0 billion of IDA balances to its balance sheet, which included uninsured balances and certain international account balances.

Legal contingencies: Schwab is subject to claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, including arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, some of which include claims for substantial or unspecified damages. The Company is also the subject of inquiries, investigations, and proceedings by regulatory and other governmental agencies.

Predicting the outcome of a litigation or regulatory matter is inherently difficult, requiring significant judgment and evaluation of various factors, including the procedural status of the matter and any recent developments; prior experience and the experience of others in similar cases; available defenses, including potential opportunities to dispose of a case on the merits or procedural grounds before trial (e.g., motions to dismiss or for summary judgment); the progress of fact discovery; the opinions of counsel and experts regarding potential damages; and potential opportunities for settlement and the status of any settlement discussions. It may not be reasonably possible to estimate a range of potential liability until the matter is closer to resolution – pending, for example, further proceedings, the outcome of key motions or appeals, or discussions among the parties. Numerous issues may have to be developed, such as discovery of important factual matters and determination of threshold legal issues, which may include novel or unsettled questions of law. Reserves are established or adjusted or further disclosure and estimates of potential loss are provided as the matter progresses and more information becomes available.

Schwab believes it has strong defenses in all significant matters currently pending and is contesting liability and any damages claimed. Nevertheless, some of these matters may result in adverse judgments or awards, including penalties, injunctions or other relief, and the Company may also determine to settle a matter because of the uncertainty and risks of litigation. Described below are matters in which there is a reasonable possibility ofthat a material loss could be incurred or where the matter may otherwise be of significant interest to stockholders. Unless otherwise noted, the Company is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of any potential liability given the stage of proceedings in the matter. With respect to all other pending matters, based on current information

These activities may expose TD Ameritrade to credit risk and losses in the event the clients are unable to fulfill their contractual obligations.

Similar to Schwab, TD Ameritrade is a member of and provides guarantees to securities clearing houses and exchanges under standard membership agreements. TD Ameritrade also engages third-party firms to clear its clients’ futures and options on futures transactions and to facilitate clients’ foreign exchange trading.

11.    Exit and Other Related Liabilities

As a result of the significant growth seen in recent quarters across key client volume metrics, including the number of active brokerage accounts, DATs, and peak daily trades, the Company has increased the scope of technology work related to the integration of TD Ameritrade. We have commenced greater technology build-out to support the expanded volumes of our combined client base. Based on our current integration plans and expanded scope of technology work, the Company expects to complete client conversion within 30 to 36 months from the October 6, 2020 date of acquisition.

To achieve our integration objectives, the Company expects to recognize significant additional acquisition and integration-related costs and capital expenditures throughout the integration process. Such acquisition and integration-related costs have included and are expected to continue to include professional fees, such as legal, advisory, and accounting fees, costs for technology enhancements, and compensation and benefits expenses for employees and contractors involved in the integration work.

The Company’s acquisition and integration-related spending also includes exit and other related costs, such as severance and other employee termination benefits, retention costs, as well as costs related to facility closures, including accelerated amortization and depreciation or impairments of assets in those locations. Exit and other related costs are a component of the Company’s overall acquisition and integration-related spending, and support the Company’s ability to achieve integration objectives including expected synergies.

Our estimates of the nature, amounts, and timing of recognition of acquisition and integration-related costs are subject to change based on a number of factors, including the expected duration and complexity of the integration process and the heightened uncertainty of the current economic environment. More specifically, factors that could cause variability in our expected acquisition and integration-related costs include the level of employee attrition, workforce redeployment from eliminated positions into open roles, changes in the levels of client activity, and increased real estate-related exit cost variability due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Inclusive of costs recognized through September 30, 2021, Schwab currently expects to incur total exit and other related costs for the integration of TD Ameritrade ranging from $650 million to $1 billion, consisting of employee compensation and benefits, facility exit costs, and certain other costs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $9 million and $99 million of acquisition-related exit costs, respectively. The Company expects the remaining exit and other related costs will be incurred and charged to expense over the next 24 to 36 months; some costs are expected to be incurred after client conversion. In addition to ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, certain of the costs associated with these activities are accounted for in accordance with ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment, ASC 712 Compensation Nonretirement Post Employment Benefits, ASC 718 Compensation Stock Compensation, and ASC 842 Leases.

12.     Financial Instruments Subject to Off-Balance Sheet Credit Risk

Resale agreements: Schwab enters into collateralized resale agreements principally with other broker-dealers, which could result in losses in the event the counterparty fails to purchase the securities held as collateral for the cash advanced and the fair value of the securities declines. To mitigate this risk, Schwab requires that the counterparty deliver securities to a custodian, to be held as collateral, with a fair value at or in excess of the resale price. Schwab also sets standards for the credit quality of the counterparty, monitors the fair value of the underlying securities as compared to the related receivable, including accrued interest, and requires additional collateral where deemed appropriate. The collateral provided under these resale agreements is utilized to meet obligations under broker-dealer client protection rules, which place limitations on our ability to access such segregated securities. For Schwab to repledge or sell this collateral, we would be required to deposit cash and/or securities of an equal amount into our segregated reserve bank accounts in order to meet our segregated cash and investment requirement. Schwab’s resale agreements areas of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were not subject to master netting arrangements.

Securities lending: Schwab loans brokerage client securities temporarily to other brokers and clearing houses in connection with its securities lending activities and receives cash as collateral for the securities loaned. Increases in security prices may cause the fair value of the securities loaned to exceed the amount of cash received as collateral. In the event the counterparty to these transactions does not return the loaned securities or provide additional cash collateral, we may be exposed to the risk of acquiring the securities at prevailing market prices in order to satisfy our client obligations. Schwab mitigates this risk by requiring credit approvals for counterparties, monitoring the fair value of securities loaned, and requiring additional cash as collateral when necessary. In addition, most of our securities lending transactions are through a program with a clearing organization, which guarantees the return of cash to us. We also borrow securities from other broker-dealers to fulfill short sales by brokerage clients and deliver cash to the lender in exchange for the securities. The fair value of these borrowed securities was $503$867 million and $719$852 million at September 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. Most of our securities lending transactions are through a program with a clearing organization, which guarantees the return of cash to us. Our securities lending transactions are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements with other broker-dealers; however, we do not net securities lending transactions. Therefore, the securities loaned and securities borrowed are presented gross in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

12.13.    Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Schwab’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include: certain cash equivalents, certain investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes, AFS securities, and certain other assets. The Company uses the market approach to determine the fair value of assets and liabilities. When available, the Company uses quoted prices in active markets to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities. Quoted prices for investments in exchange-traded securities represent end-of-day close prices published by exchanges. Quoted prices for money market funds and other mutual funds represent reported net asset values. When utilizing market data and bid-ask spread, the Company uses the price within the bid-ask spread that best represents fair value. When quoted prices in active markets do not exist, the Company uses prices obtained from independent third-party pricing services to measure the fair value of investment assets. We generally obtain prices from three independent third-party pricing sources for assets recorded at fair value.

Our primary independent pricing service provides prices for our fixed income investments such as commercial paper; certificates of deposit; U.S. government and agency securities; state and municipal securities; corporate debt securities; asset-backed securities; foreign government agency securities; and non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities. Such prices are based on observable trades, broker/dealer quotes, and discounted cash flows that incorporate observable information such as yields for similar types of securities (a benchmark interest rate plus observable spreads) and weighted-average maturity for the same or similar “to-be-issued” securities. We compare the prices obtained from the primary independent pricing service to the prices obtained from the additional independent pricing services to determine if the price obtained from the primary independent pricing service is reasonable. Schwab does not adjust the prices received from independent third-party pricing services unless such prices are inconsistent with the definition of fair value and result in material differences in the amounts recorded.

For a description of the fair value hierarchy and Schwab’s fair value methodologies, see Item 8 – Note 2 in the 20192020 Form 10-K. The Company did not adjust prices received from the primary independent third-party pricing service at September 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020.

(1)In the interagency regulatory capital and liquidity rules adopted in October 2019, Category III banking organizations such as CSC were given the ability to opt-out of the inclusion of AOCI in regulatory capital, and CSC made this opt-out election as of January 1, 2020. Therefore, AOCI is excluded from the amounts and ratios presented as of September 30, 2020. In 2019, CSC and CSB were required to include all components of AOCI in regulatory capital; the amounts and ratios for December 31, 2019 are presented on this basis.
(2) Under the Basel III capital rule, CSC and CSB are also required to maintain a capital conservation buffer and a countercyclical capital buffer above the regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer and countercyclical capital buffer were 2.5% and zero percent, respectively, for both periods presented. If either buffer falls below the minimum requirement, the Company would be subject to limits on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. At September 30, 2020,2021, the minimum capital requirement plus capital conservation buffer and countercyclical capital buffer for Common Equity Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital, and Total Risk-Based Capital ratios were 7.0%, 8.5%, and 10.5%, respectively.
N/A Not applicable.

Based on its regulatory capital ratios at September 30, 2020,2021, CSB is considered well capitalized (the highest category) under its respective regulatory capital rules. There are no conditions or events since September 30, 20202021 that management believes have changed CSB’s capital category.

At September 30, 2020,2021, the balance sheets of CSPB and Charles Schwab Trust Bank (Trust Bank) consisted primarily of investment securities, and the entities held total assets of $28.3$35.6 billion and $11.7$14.7 billion, respectively. Based on their regulatory capital ratios, at September 30, 2021, CSPB and Trust Bank are considered well capitalized under their respective regulatory capital rules.

Pursuant to Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934SEC’s Customer Protection Rule and other applicable regulations, Schwab had cash and investments segregated for the exclusive benefit of clients at September 30, 2020.2021. The SECSEC’s Customer Protection Rule requires broker-dealers to segregate client fully-paid securities and cash balances not collateralizing margin positions and not swept to money market funds or bank deposit accounts. Amounts included in cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes represent actual balances on deposit. Cash and cash equivalents included in cash and investments segregated and on deposit for regulatory purposes are presented as part of Schwab’s cash balances in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Certain subsidiaries of TD Ameritrade are also subject to regulatory capital requirements, including TD Ameritrade’s principal securities broker-dealers, TD Ameritrade, Inc. and TDAC, as well as its FCM and FDM entity, TDAFF. As of October 6, 2020, the effective date of the acquisition, TD Ameritrade, Inc., TDAC, and TDAFF were in compliance with their respective regulatory capital requirements. See Notes 3 and 17 for additional information on our acquisition of TD Ameritrade.

17.    Subsequent Events
On October 6, 2020, the Company completed its acquisition of TD Ameritrade, pursuant to the merger agreement. As a result of the acquisition, TDA Holding became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSC. The Company issued approximately 586 million common shares to TD Ameritrade stockholders in the acquisition, including shares of a new, nonvoting class of CSC common stock. Immediately prior to the acquisition, on October 6, 2020, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to create the nonvoting class of common stock with 300 million shares authorized for issuance and to increase the number of authorized shares of capital stock by the same amount. Additionally, in conjunction with the acquisition on October 6, 2020, the stockholder agreement with TD Bank, the registration rights agreement with TD Bank and Charles R. Schwab, and the amended and restated IDA agreement with the TD Depository Institutions, as further detailed in Part I – Item 1 of our 2019 Form 10-K, became effective.
Under the amended IDA agreement, which replaced the previous IDA agreement between the TD Depository Institutions and TD Ameritrade, the TD Depository Institutions make available to Schwab customers FDIC-insured (up to specified limits) money market deposit accounts. Schwab provides marketing, recordkeeping and support services to the TD Depository Institutions with respect to the money market deposit accounts for which Schwab receives an aggregate monthly fee, determined by reference to certain yields, less a service fee on client cash deposits held at the TD Depository Institutions, FDIC deposit assessments, and interest on deposits paid to customers (on a net basis, the “sweep arrangement fee”). Though unlikely, in the event the sweep arrangement fee computation were to result in a negative amount in any given month, Schwab would be required to pay the TD Depository Institutions. Under the terms of the amended IDA agreement, the service fee on client cash deposits held at the TD Depository Institutions was reduced to 15 basis points from the 25 basis points paid by TD Ameritrade under its previous IDA agreement. Additionally, the previous IDA agreement had floors in place which enabled TD Ameritrade to carve-out up to $20 billion of IDA deposits designated as floating-rate investments from the applicable service fee during specified low-rate environments. Under the amended IDA agreement, the renegotiated 15 basis point rate will be applied across all designated fixed and floating IDA balances.

The sweep arrangement fee received by Schwab under the amended IDA agreement, as well as bank deposit account agreements with other third-party depository institutions, will be included in a new revenue line item in our consolidated statement of income titled bank deposit account fees.
Under the amended IDA agreement, there will be an initial period during which the amounts swept to the TD Depository Institutions will solely be composed of customer funds from the TD Ameritrade subsidiary broker-dealers. Following this initial period, CSC’s subsidiary broker-dealers can sweep client funds to money market deposit accounts at the TD Depository Institutions, subject to certain limits. Beginning July 1, 2021, CSC’s subsidiary broker-dealers, including the TD Ameritrade broker-dealers, will have the option to reduce deposit balances swept to the TD Depository Institutions by up to $10 billion over each 12-month period, subject to certain limits and adjustments. Such limits and adjustments include Schwab’s obligation to move all of the uninsured IDA sweep balances on July 1, 2021 to its balance sheet or to other third-party depository institutions, which will count against the optional reduction amount, and the requirement that Schwab can only move floating IDA balances. Schwab’s initial reduction will also be affected by the net change in IDA sweep balances between the effective date of the amended IDA agreement and June 30, 2021. In addition, Schwab is also required to maintain a minimum $50 billion IDA balance through June 2031 and at least 80% of the IDA balances must be designated as fixed-rate obligations through June 2026.
The amended IDA agreement will have an initial expiration date of July 1, 2031, subject to automatic renewal for a five-year term if not terminated by either CSC or the TD Depository Institutions two years prior to the expiration date. For further details surrounding the amended IDA agreement, see Part I – Item 1 of our 2019 Form 10-K.
Pursuant to the merger agreement, CSC issued approximately 177 million shares of common stock and approximately 77 million shares of nonvoting common stock to TD Bank and its affiliates on October 6, 2020. Those shares of common stock and nonvoting common stock were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. Following this issuance, TD Bank exchanged an aggregate of approximately 2 million shares of CSC common stock for an equal number of shares of CSC nonvoting common stock and held approximately 79 million shares of nonvoting common stock as of October 31, 2020. TD Bank and its affiliates are not permitted to own more than 9.9% of CSC common stock. This limit is interpreted in accordance with the applicable rules of the Federal Reserve and includes shares of CSC common stock deemed to be beneficially owned directly or indirectly by TD Bank and its affiliates.

See Notes 3, 9, 10, 13, and 15 for additional information on the TD Ameritrade acquisition.

Item 1.     Legal Proceedings
For a discussion of legal proceedings, see Part I – Item 1 – Note 10.


Item 1A.     Risk Factors

During the first nine months of 2020,2021, there have been no material changes to the risk factors in Part I – Item 1A – Risk Factors in the 20192020 Form 10-K except as described below. The risk factor described below updates, and should be read together with, the risk factors disclosed in Part I – Item 1A – Risk Factors, in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The challenging economic environment triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted and will continue to impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.
The COVID‑19 pandemic has adversely impacted the economic environment, leading to lower interest rates across the curve and heightened volatility in the financial markets. These developments have had, and may continue to have, a negative impact on our net interest revenue and asset management and administration fees. Additionally, in March 2020, we experienced a significant increase in client cash balances held at our bank and broker-dealer subsidiaries, which caused our Tier 1 Leverage Ratio to decline into the buffer we maintain between our long-term operating objective and our regulatory requirement. This will limit our ability to return excess capital to stockholders, including through share repurchases, until the ratio returns to higher levels. Furthermore, many of our employees and those of our outsourced service providers are working remotely. Certain of our client service response and processing times have increased as a result of very high levels of client engagement, our employees working remotely, and the temporary loss of services from some of our outsourced service providers. Credit markets have been adversely impacted due to both uncertainty regarding the pandemic’s economic impact and the anticipation that high levels of unemployment will have a significant impact on retail credit and commercial real estate forbearances and delinquencies. We may experience higher levels of delinquencies on our portfolios of first mortgages and home equity lines of credit. We may also experience higher credit spreads in certain sectors within our portfolio of investment securities, especially those asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities with exposure to retail loans and commercial real estate. These and other impacts of the COVID‑19 pandemic could have the effects of heightening many of the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 incorporated by reference herein. The extent to which the COVID‑19 pandemic impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, actions taken by governmental authorities to contain the financial and economic impact of the pandemic and the spread of COVID‑19, further changes in credit quality and spreads, and reactions in the financial markets.
