1.    Basis of Presentation
SVB Financial Group is a diversified financial services company, as well as a bank holding company and a financial holding company. SVB Financial was incorporated in the state of Delaware in March 1999. Through our various subsidiaries and divisions, we offer a diverse set of banking and financial products and services to support our clients of all sizes and stages throughout their life cycles. In these notes to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, when we refer to “SVB,” “SVB Financial Group,” “SVBFG," the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or use similar words, we mean SVB Financial Group and all of its subsidiaries collectively, including Silicon Valley Bank (the “Bank”), unless the context requires otherwise. When we refer to “SVB Financial” or the “Parent” we are referring only to the parent company, SVB Financial Group (not including subsidiaries).
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with GAAP. Such unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any future periods. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 (“20202021 Form 10-K”).
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates may change as new information is obtained. ItemsAmong the more significant estimates are those that are subject to such estimates include:relate to: 1) measurements of fair value, theACL for loans and for unfunded credit commitments, 2) valuation of non-marketable and other equity securities, and the3) valuation of equity warrant assets, 2)4) goodwill, intangible assets and other purchase accounting related adjustments, and 5) income taxes and 3) the adequacy of the ACL for loans and for unfunded credit commitments.taxes.
Principles of Consolidation and Presentation
Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SVB Financial Group and consolidated entities. We consolidate voting entities in which we have control through voting interests or entities through which we have a controlling financial interest in a VIE. We determine whether we have a controlling financial interest in a VIE by determining if we have: (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, (b) the obligation to absorb the expected losses or (c) the right to receive the expected returns of the entity. Generally, we have significant variable interests if our commitments to a limited partnership investment represent a significant amount of the total commitments to the entity. We also evaluate the impact of related parties on our determination of variable interests in our consolidation conclusions. We consolidate VIEs in which we are the primary beneficiary based on a controlling financial interest. If we are not the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we record our pro-rata interests based on our ownership percentage.
VIEs are entities where investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or equity investors, as a group, lack one of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, (b) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or (c) the right to receive the expected returns of the entity. We assess VIEs to determine if we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE. A primary beneficiary is defined as a variable interest holder that has a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest requires both: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (b) obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits of a VIE that could potentially be significant to a VIE. Under this analysis, we also evaluate kick-out rights and other participating rights, which could provide us a controlling financial interest. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is required to consolidate the VIE.
We also evaluate fees paid to managers of our limited partnership investments. We exclude those fee arrangements that are not deemed to be variable interests from the analysis of our interests in our investments in VIEs and the determination of a primary beneficiary, if any. Fee arrangements based on terms that are customary and commensurate with the services provided are deemed not to be variable interests and are, therefore, excluded.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions with consolidated entities have been eliminated. We have not provided financial or other support during the periods presentedFor a further description of our accounting policies regarding consolidation refer to any VIE that we were not previously contractually required to provide.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a consistent basis with the accounting policies described in Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data — Note 2 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” under Part II, Item 8 of our 20202021 Form 10-K.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12), which is part of the FASB’s initiative to reduce cost and complexity related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles of ASC 740, Income Taxes, and simplifies income tax accounting in several areas.We adopted the guidance on January 1, 2021, on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

EPS
Basic EPS is the amount of earnings available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is the amount of earnings available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period adjusted to include the effect of potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares include incremental shares issuable for stock options and restricted stock unit awards outstanding under our 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and our ESPP. Potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the computation of dilutive EPS in periods in which the effect would be antidilutive. The following is a reconciliation of basic EPS to diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and 2020:2021:

Non-marketable and other equity securities
Our non-marketable and other equity securities portfolio primarily represents investments in venture capital and private equity funds, SPD-SVB, debt funds, private and public portfolio companies and qualified affordable housing projects. Many of these are investments held by SVB Financial in third-party funds in which we do not have controlling or significant variable interests. These investments represent our unconsolidated VIEs in the table above. Our non-marketable and other
11

Table of Contents

equity securities portfolio also includes investments from SVB Capital. SVB Capital is the funds management business of SVB Financial Group, which focuses primarily on venture capital investments. The SVB Capital family of funds is comprised of direct venture funds that invest in companies and funds of funds that invest in other venture capital funds. We have a controlling and significant variable interest in 34 of these SVB Capital funds and consolidate these funds for financial reporting purposes.
AllMost investments are generally nonredeemable, and distributions are expected to be received through the liquidation of the underlying investments throughout the life of the investment fund. Investments may only be sold or transferred subject to the notice and approval provisions of the underlying investment agreement. Subject to applicable regulatory requirements, including the Volcker Rule, we also make commitments to invest in venture capital and private equity funds. For additional details, see Note 1311 — “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Guarantees and Other Commitments.”
The Bank also has variable interests in low income housing tax credit funds, in connection with fulfilling its responsibilities under the CRA, that are designed to generate a return primarily through the realization of federal tax credits. These investments are typically limited partnerships in which the general partner, other than the Bank, holds the power over significant activities of the VIE; therefore, these investments are not consolidated. For additional information on our investments in qualified affordable housing projects, see Note 5 — “Investment Securities.".
As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our exposure to loss with respect to the consolidated VIEs is limited to our net assets of $641$907 million and our exposure to loss for our unconsolidated VIEs is equal to our investment in these assets of $955 million.$1.2 billion.

Junior subordinated debentures

TableSVB Financial Group assumed two statutory trusts during the merger with Boston Private. These trusts were for the purpose of Contentsissuing trust preferred securities and investing the proceeds in junior subordinated debentures. These statutory trusts created by legacy Boston Private are not consolidated within the financial statements as the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the trusts; however, the total junior subordinated debentures payable to the preferred stockholders of statutory trusts are reported as long-term debt in the financial statements.

(1)As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we identified a total of 344627 investments that were in unrealized loss positions with 2132 investments in an unrealized loss position for a period of time greater than 12 months. Based on our analysis of the securities in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the decline in value is unrelated to credit loss and is related to changes in market interest rates since purchase and therefore changes in value for securities are included in other comprehensive income. Market valuations and credit loss analyses on assets in the AFS securities portfolio are reviewed and monitored on a quarterly basis. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we do not intend to sell any of our securities in an unrealized loss position prior to recovery of our amortized cost basis, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell any of our securities prior to recovery of our amortized cost basis. None of the investments in our AFS securities portfolio were past due as of June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.

The following table summarizes the fixed income securities, carried at fair value, classified as AFS as of June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 by the remaining contractual principal maturities. For U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. agency debentures and foreign government debt securities, the expected maturity is the actual contractual maturity of the notes. Expected maturities for MBS may differ significantly from their contractual maturities because mortgage borrowers have the right to prepay outstanding loan obligations with or without penalties. MBS classified as AFS typically have original contractual maturities from 10 to 30 years whereas expected average lives of these securities tend to be significantly shorter and vary based upon structure and prepayments in lower interest rate environments.

HTM Securities
During the second quarter of 2021, we re-designated certain securities from the classification of AFS to HTM. The securities re-designated consisted of agency-issued CMBS with a total carrying value of $5.7 billion at June 30, 2021. At the time of re-designation the securities included $78 million of pretax net unrealized loss in other comprehensive income and are being amortized over the life of the securities in a manner consistent with the amortization of a premium or discount. Our decision to re-designate the securities was based on our ability and intent to hold these securities to maturity. Factors used in assessing the ability to hold these securities to maturity were future liquidity needs and sources of funding. HTM securities are carried on the balance sheet at amortized cost and the changes in the value of these securities, other than an ACL, are not reported on the financial statements.
The components of our HTM investment securities portfolio at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 are as follows:

The following table summarizes the remaining contractual principal maturities on fixed income investment securities classified as HTM as of June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. For U.S. agency debentures, the expected maturity is the actual contractual maturity of the notes. Expected remaining maturities for certain U.S. agency debentures may occur earlier than their contractual maturities because the note issuers have the right to call outstanding amounts ahead of their contractual maturity. Expected maturities for MBS may differ significantly from their contractual maturities because mortgage borrowers have the right to prepay outstanding loan obligations with or without penalties. MBS classified as HTM typically have original contractual maturities from 10 to 30 years whereas expected average lives of these securities tend to be significantly shorter and vary based upon structure and prepayments in lower interest rate environments; however, we expect to collect substantially all of the recorded investment on these securities.

(2)The carrying value represents investments in 157and 162150 funds (primarily venture capital funds) at June 30, 2021both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020, respectively,2021, where our ownership interest is typically less than 5% of the voting interests of each such fund and in which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the partnerships operating activities and financial policies. We carry our unconsolidated venture capital and private equity fund investments at fair value based on the fund investments' net asset values per share as obtained from the general partners of the investments. For each fund investment, we adjust the net asset value per share for differences between our measurement date and the date of the fund investment’s net asset value by using the most recently available financial information from the investee general partner, for example MarchDecember 31st for our June 30March 31th stconsolidated financial statements, adjusted for any contributions paid, distributions received from the investment, and significant fund transactions or market events during the reporting period.
(3)These investments include direct equity investments in private companies. The carrying value is based on the price at which the investment was acquired plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments. We consider a range of factors when adjusting the fair value of these investments, including, but not limited to, the term and nature of the investment, local market conditions, values for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance, exit strategies, financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment and a discount for certain investments that have lock-up restrictions or other features that indicate a discount to fair value is warranted.

Credit Quality Indicators
For each individual client, we establish an internal credit risk rating for that loan, which is used for assessing and monitoring credit risk as well as performance of the loan and the overall portfolio. Our internal credit risk ratings are also used to summarize the risk of loss due to failure by an individual borrower to repay the loan. For our internal credit risk ratings, each individual loan is given a risk rating of 1 through 10. Loans risk-rated 1 through 4 are performing loans and translate to an internal rating of “Pass,” with loans risk-rated 1 being cash secured. Loans risk-rated 5 through 7 are performing loans; however, we consider them as demonstrating higher risk, which requires more frequent review of the individual exposures; these translate to an internal rating of “Criticized.” All of our nonaccrual loans are risk-rated 8 or 9 and are classified with the internal rating of "Nonperforming." Loans rated 10 are charged-off and are not included as part of our loan portfolio balance. We review our credit quality indicators on a quarterly basis for performance and appropriateness of risk ratings as part of our evaluation process for our ACL for loans.

Allowance for Credit Losses: Loans
In the secondfirst quarter of 2021,2022, the ACL for loans increaseddecreased by $4$1 million, from the prior quarter, driven primarily by net charge-offs and a release of individually assessed reserves related to a decrease in our nonperforming loans, partially offset by growth in our loan portfolio, partially offset by improved economic conditions within our forecasted assumptions.portfolio.
The economic forecast in Moody's Analytics June 2021March 2022 forecast was utilized in our quantitative model for the ACL as of June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. The forecast assumptions included an improvementimprovements in the unemployment rate asand housing pricing index growth rate, offset by a result of continued business re-openings and the effect of government aid programs, as well as an improvedlower forecasted gross domestic product growth rate. The overall impact of these assumptions was a moderately better forecast than that used at December 31, 2021. We determined the forecast to be a reasonable view of the outlook for the economy given the available information at current quarter end. To the extent we identified credit risk considerations that were not captured by the Moody's Analytics June 2021March 2022 forecast, we addressed the risk through management's qualitative adjustments to our ACL.
We do not estimate expected credit losses on AIR on loans, as AIR is reversed or written off when the full collection of the AIR related to a loan becomes doubtful. AIR on loans totaled $143$181 million atJune 30, 2021 March 31, 2022 and $126$171 million at December 31, 20202021 and is reported in "Accrued interest receivable and other assets" in our unaudited interim consolidated balance sheets.
The following tables summarize the activity relating to our ACL for loans for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, broken out by portfolio segment:

Charge-offs and defaults on previously restructured loans are evaluated to determine the impact to the ACL for loans, if any. The evaluation of these defaults may impact the assumptions used in calculating the reserve on other TDRs and nonaccrual loans as well as management’s overall outlook of macroeconomic factors that affect the reserve on the loan portfolio as a whole. After evaluating the charge-offs and defaults experienced on our TDRs we determined that no change to our reserving methodology for TDRs was necessary to determine the ACL for loans as of June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.
ACL: Unfunded Credit Commitments
We maintain a separate ACL for unfunded credit commitments that is determined using a methodology that is inherently similar to the methodology used for calculating the ACL for loans. At June 30, 2021March 31, 2022, our ACL estimates utilized the improved Moody's economic forecasts from June 2021March 31, 2022 as mentioned above.

Short-term Borrowings
We have certain facilities in place to enable us to access short-term borrowings on a secured and unsecured basis. Our secured facilities include collateral pledged to the FHLB of San Francisco and the discount window at the FRB (using both fixed income securities and loans as collateral). Our unsecured facility consists of our uncommitted federal funds lines. As of June 30, 2021, collateral pledged to the FHLB of San Francisco was comprised primarily of fixed income investment securities and loans and had a carrying value of $7.1 billion, of which $5.9 billion was available to support additional borrowings. As of June 30, 2021, collateral pledged to the discount window at the FRB was comprised of fixed income investment securities and had a carrying value of $0.9 billion, all of which was unused and available to support additional borrowings. Our total unused and available borrowing capacity for our uncommitted federal funds lines totaled $1.9 billion at June 30, 2021. Our total unused and available borrowing capacity under our master repurchase agreements with various financial institutions totaled $4.0 billion at June 30, 2021.

9.8.    Derivative Financial Instruments
We primarily use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk and currency exchange rate risk and to assist customers with their risk management objectives, which may include currency exchange rate risks and interest rate risks. Also, in connection with negotiating credit facilities and certain other services, we often obtain equity warrant assets giving us the right to acquire stock in private, venture-backed companies in the technology and life science/healthcare industries.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is our primary market risk and can result from timing and volume differences in the repricing of our interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities and changes in market interest rates. To manage interest rate risk on our interest rate sensitive assets, we have entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge against future changes in interest rates. We designate these interest rate swap contracts as fair value and cash flow hedges.
Fair Value Hedges
To manage interest rate risk on our AFS securities portfolio, we enter into pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swap contracts to hedge against exposure to changes in the fair value of the securities resulting from changes in interest rates. We designate these interest rate swap contracts as fair value hedges that qualify for hedge accounting under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815") and have elected to account for a portion of them using the last-of-layer method as outlined in ASC 815. We record the fair value hedges in other assets and other liabilities. For qualifying fair value hedges, both the changes in the fair value of the derivative and the portion of the fair value adjustments associated with the last-of-layer attributable to the hedged risk will be recognized into earnings as they occur. Derivative amounts affecting earnings are recognized consistent with the classification of the hedged item in the line item "investment securities" as part of interest income, a component of consolidated net income.
We assess hedge effectiveness under ASC 815 on a quarterly basis to ensure all hedges remain highly effective and hedge accounting under ASC 815 can be applied. In conjunction with the assessment of effectiveness, we assess the hedged item to ensure it is expected to be outstanding at the hedged item’s assumed maturity date and the last-of-layer method of
28

Table of Contents

accounting under ASC 815 can be applied. If the hedging relationship no longer exists or no longer qualifies as a hedge per ASC 815, any remaining fair value basis adjustments are allocated to the individual assets in the portfolio and amortized into earnings over a period consistent with the amortization of other discounts and premiums associated with the respective assets. As allowed under GAAP, we applied the "shortcut" method of accounting to a portion of our fair value hedges which assumes there is perfect effectiveness.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the amortized cost basis of hedged assets that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges and the cumulative amount of fair value hedging adjustments included in the carrying value that have been recorded on our unaudited interim consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021:March 31, 2022:

(1)These amounts include the amortized cost basis of closed portfolios used to designate hedging relationships in which the hedged item is the last layer expected to be remaining at the end of the hedging relationship. At June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the amortized cost basis of the closed portfolios used in these hedging relationships was$17.5 $9.6 billion, the amounts of the designated hedged items was $8.8$5.9 billion and the cumulative basis adjustments associated with these hedging relationships was $258 million.
(2)The balance includes $6 million.million of hedging adjustments on discontinued hedging relationships at March 31, 2022.
Cash Flow Hedges
To manage interest rate risk on our variable-interest rate loan portfolio, we enter into interest rate swap contracts to hedge against future changes in interest rates by using hedging instruments to lock in future cash inflows that would otherwise be impacted by movements in the market interest rates. We designate these interest rate swap contracts as cash flow hedges that qualify for hedge accounting under ASC 815 and record them in other assets and other liabilities. For qualifying cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in AOCI and recognized in earnings as the hedged item affects earnings. Derivative amounts affecting earnings are recognized consistent with the classification of the hedged item in the line item "Loans""loans" as part of interest income, a component of consolidated net income.
We assess hedge effectiveness under ASC 815 on a quarterly basis to ensure all hedges remain highly effective and hedge accounting under ASC 815 can be applied. If the hedging relationship no longer exists or no longer qualifies as a hedge per ASC 815, any amounts remaining as gain or loss in AOCI are reclassified into earnings in the line item "Loans""loans" as part of interest income, a component of consolidated net income. As of March 31, 2020, all derivatives previously classified as hedges with notional balances totaling $5.0 billion and a net asset fair value of $228 million were terminated. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the total unrealized gains on terminated cash flow hedges remaining in AOCI was $148$101 million, $107$72 million net of tax. The unrealized gains will be reclassified into interest income as the underlying forecasted transactions impact earnings through the original maturity of the hedged forecasted transactions. The total remaining term over which the unrealized gains will be reclassified into earnings is approximately fourthree years.
Currency Exchange Risk
We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to economically reduce our foreign exchange exposure risk associated with the net difference between foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. We do not designate any foreign exchange forward contracts as derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting. Gains or losses from changes in currency rates on foreign currency denominated instruments are recorded in the line item “other” as part of noninterest income, a component of consolidated net income. We may experience ineffectiveness in the economic hedging relationship, because the instruments are revalued based upon changes in the currency’s spot rate on the principal value, while the forwards are revalued on a discounted cash flow basis. We record forward agreements in gain positions in other assets and loss positions in other liabilities, while net changes in fair value are recorded in the line item “other” as part of noninterest income, a component of consolidated net income.
Other Derivative Instruments
We issue loans to clients with conversion features allowing SVBFG to convert the contingent conversion rights to stock in private or public companies. All of our contingent conversion rights qualify as derivatives and are reported at fair value as a component of other assets on our consolidated balance sheet. Any changes in fair value after the grant date are recognized as net gains or losses in the line item "other" in noninterest income, a component of consolidated net income.
We enter into total return swaps related to certain of our equity funds, which manages the the risk of exposure from the volatility of equity investments and in the funds. We do not designate any total return swaps as derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting. Gains or losses from changes in fair value are recognized as net gains or losses in the line item "other" in noninterest income, a component of consolidated net income.

Also included in our derivative instruments are equity warrant assets and client forward and option contracts, and client interest rate contracts. For further description of these other derivative instruments, refer to Note 2 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" under Part II, Item 8 of our 20202021 Form 10-K.
Counterparty Credit Risk
We are exposed to credit risk if counterparties to our derivative contracts do not perform as expected. We mitigate counterparty credit risk through credit approvals, limits, monitoring procedures and obtaining collateral, as appropriate. With respect to measuring counterparty credit risk for derivative instruments, we measure the fair value of a group of financial assets and financial liabilities on a net risk basis by counterparty portfolio.

Table of Contents

Our non-marketable and other equity securities portfolio primarily represents investments in venture capital and private equity funds, SPD-SVB, debt and credit funds, private and public portfolio companies, which includesinclude public equity securities held as a result of exercised equity warrant assets, and qualified affordable housing projects. We experience variability in the performance of our non-marketable and other equity securities from period to period, which results in net gains or losses on investment securities (both realized and unrealized). This variability is due to a number of factors, including unrealized changes in the values of our investments, changes in the amount of realized gains from distributions, changes in liquidity events and general economic and market conditions. Unrealized gains from non-marketable and other equity securities for any single period are typically driven by valuation changes.
The extent to which any unrealized gains or losses will become realized is subject to a variety of factors, including, among other things, the expiration of certain sales restrictions to which these equity securities may be subject to (e.g., lock-up agreements), changes in prevailing market prices, market conditions, the actual sales or distributions of securities, and the timing of such actual sales or distributions, which, to the extent such securities are managed by our managed funds, are subject to our funds' separate discretionary sales/distributions and governance processes.
Carried interest is comprised of preferential allocations of profits recognizable when the return on assets of our individual managed fund of funds and direct venture funds exceeds certain performance targets and is payable to us, as the general partners of the managed funds. The carried interest we earn is often shared with employees, who are also members of the general partner entities. We record carried interest on a quarterly basis by measuring fund performance to date versus the performance target. For our unconsolidated managed funds, carried interest is recorded as gains on investment securities, net. For our consolidated managed funds, it is recorded as a component of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. Carried interest allocated to others is recorded as a component of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. Any carried interest paid to us (or our employees) may be subject to reversal to the extent fund performance declines to a level where inception to date carried interest is lower than actual payments made by the funds. The limited partnership agreements for our funds provide that carried interest is generally not paid to the general partners until the funds have provided a full return of contributed capital to the limited partners. Accrued, but unpaid carried interest may be subject to reversal to the extent that the fund performance declines to a level where inception-to-date carried interest is less than prior amounts recognized. Carried interest income is accounted for under an ownership model based on ASC 323 — Equity Method of Accounting and ASC 810 — Consolidation.
Our AFS securities portfolio is a fixed income investment portfolio that is managed with the objective of earning an appropriate portfolio yield over the long-term while maintaining sufficient liquidity and credit diversification as well as addressing our asset/liability management objectives. Though infrequent, sales of debt securities in our AFS securities portfolio may result in net gains or losses and are conducted pursuant to the guidelines of our investment policy related to the management of our liquidity position and interest rate risk.
Gains on investment securities are recognized outside of the scope of ASC 606 as it explicitly excludes noninterest income earned from our investment-related activities.

We have determined that we act as principal in the majority of these transactions and therefore present expenses gross within other operating expenses.

Commissions
Commissions include commissions received from customers for the execution of agency-based brokerage transactions in listed and over-the-counter equities. The execution of each trade order represents a distinct performance obligation and the transaction price is fixed at the point in time or trade order execution. Trade execution is satisfied at the point in time that the customer has control of the asset and as such, fees are recorded on a trade date basis. The Company also earns subscription fees for market intelligence services that are recognized over the period in which they are delivered. Fees received before the subscription period ends are initially recorded as deferred revenue (a contract liability) in other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet. Commissions are presented in the "Disaggregation"Disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers"table below.

Other
Other noninterest income primarily includes income from fund management fees, gains from conversion of convertible debt options and service revenue. Fund management fees are comprised of fees charged directly to our managed funds of funds and direct venture funds. Fund management fees are based upon the contractual terms of the limited partnership agreements and are generally recognized as earned over the specified contract period, which is generally equal to the life of the individual fund. Fund management fees are calculated as a percentage of committed capital and collected in advance and are received quarterly. Fund management fees for certain of our limited partnership agreements are calculated as a percentage of distributions made by the funds and revenue is recorded only at the time of a distribution event. As distribution events are not predetermined for these certain funds, management fees are considered variable and constrained under ASC 606.
Gains from conversion of convertible debt options represent unrealized valuation gains on loan conversion derivative assets, and realized gains from the conversion of debt instruments, convertible into a third party’s common stock upon a triggering event such as an IPO. Gains from conversion of convertible debt options are recognized outside of the scope of ASC 606 as it explicitly excludes noninterest income earned from our derivative-related activities.
Other service revenue primarily consists of dividend income on FHLB/FRB stock, correspondent bank rebate income, incentive fees, or performance fees related to carried interest and other fee income. We recognize revenue when our performance obligations are met and record revenues on a daily/monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. For event driven revenue sources, we recognize revenue when: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) we have performed the service, provided we have no other remaining obligations to the customer, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability is probable.

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of cash settlements or invoicing to customers. We record a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing, and unearned revenue when revenue is recognized subsequent to receipt of consideration. These assets and liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. During the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, changes in our contract assets, contract liabilities and receivables were not material. Additionally, revenues recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and 2020 that were included in the corresponding contract liability balance at the beginning of the periods were not material.

12.10.    Segment Reporting
We have 4 reportable segments for management reporting purposes: Global CommercialSilicon Valley Bank, SVB Private, Bank, SVB Capital and SVB Leerink.Securities. The results of our reportable and operating segments are based on our internal management reporting process.
We report segment information based on the “management” approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of our reporting segments. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we reevaluated our segments. Based on this reevaluation, the Premium Wine reporting division was moved from Silicon Valley Bank to the SVB Private segment. These changes were made to reflect the manner in which the Company is organized for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing performance. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, prior period balances for our Premium Wine reporting division previously reported in "Silicon Valley Bank" have been recasted to the reportable segment “SVB Private” to properly reflect organizational changes effective January 1, 2022. The reclassification of historical segment information has no effect on the Company's previously reported consolidated balance sheets, statements of income, or cash flows and the change did not have any impact on the determination of the reporting units used to assess impairment under ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. Please refer to Note 10 — “Segment Reporting” of the “Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)” under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional details.
Our Global CommercialSilicon Valley Bank and SVB Private Bank segments primary source of revenue is from net interest income, which is primarily the difference between interest earned on loans, net of FTP, and interest paid on deposits, net of FTP. Accordingly, these segments are reported using net interest income, net of FTP. FTP is an internal measurement framework designed to assess the financial impact of a financial institution’s sources and uses of funds. It is the mechanism by which a funding credit is given for deposits raised, and a funding charge is made for funded loans. FTP is calculated at an instrument level based on account characteristics.
We also evaluate performance based on provision for credit losses, noninterest income and noninterest expense, which are presented as components of segment operating profit or loss. In calculating each operating segment’s noninterest expense, we consider the direct costs incurred by the operating segment as well as certain allocated direct costs. As part of this review, we allocate certain corporate overhead costs to a corporate account. We do not allocate income tax expense or the provisions for unfunded credit commitments or HTM securities (included in provision for credit losses) to our segments. Additionally, our management reporting model is predicated on average asset balances; therefore, period-end asset balances are not presented for segment reporting purposes. Changes in an individual client’s primary relationship designation have resulted, and in the future may result, in the inclusion of certain clients in different segments in different periods.
Unlike financial reporting, which benefits from the comprehensive structure provided by GAAP, our internal management reporting process is highly subjective, as there is no comprehensive, authoritative guidance for management reporting. Our management reporting process measures the performance of our operating segments based on our internal operating structure, which is subject to change from time to time, and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for other financial services companies.
For reporting purposes, SVB Financial Group has 4 reportableoperating segments for which we report our financial information:
Silicon Valley Bank (formerly known as Global Commercial Bank Bank) is comprised of results from the following operating segments:

13.11.    Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Guarantees and Other Commitments
In the normal course of business, we use financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commercial and standby letters of credit and commitments to invest in venture capital and private equity fund investments. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk. Credit risk is defined as the possibility of sustaining a loss because other parties to the financial instrument fail to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract.

Commitments to Invest in Venture Capital and Private Equity Funds
We make commitments to invest in venture capital and private equity funds, which generally make investments in privately-held companies. Commitments to invest in these funds are generally made for a 10-year period from the inception of the fund. Although the limited partnership agreements governing these investments typically do not restrict the general partners from calling 100% of committed capital in one year, it is customary for these funds to call most of the capital commitments over 5 to 7 years, and in certain cases, the funds may not call 100% of committed capital. The actual timing of future cash requirements to fund these commitments is generally dependent upon the investment cycle, overall market conditions, and the nature and type of industry in which the privately held companies operate. The following table details our total capital commitments, unfunded capital commitments, and our ownership percentage in each fund at June 30, 2021:March 31, 2022:

14.12.    Income Taxes
We are subject to income tax and non-income based taxes by the U.S. federal tax authorities as well as various state and foreign tax authorities. We have identified the U.S. federal and California state jurisdictions as major tax filings. The state of California is currently examining the years 2013-2016. Our U.S. federal tax returns remain open to full examination for 20172018 and subsequent tax years. Our California tax returns remain open to full examination for 20162017 and subsequent tax years.
At June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our unrecognized tax benefit was $22$42 million, the recognition of which would reduce our income tax expense by $18$33 million. We do not expect that ourare unable to estimate the unrecognized tax benefit that will materially change in the next 12 months.
We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as part of income before income taxes. Interest and penalties were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

15.13.    Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements
Our AFS securities, derivative instruments and certain non-marketable and other equity securities are financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. We make estimates regarding valuation of assets and liabilities measured at fair value in preparing our interim consolidated financial statements.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is a three-level hierarchy for disclosure of assets and liabilities recorded at fair value. The classification of assets and liabilities within the hierarchy is based on whether the inputs to the valuation methodology used for measurement are observable or unobservable and on the significance of those inputs in the fair value measurement. Observable inputs reflect market-derived or market-based information obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our estimates about market data and views of market participants. The three levels for measuring fair value are based on the reliability of inputs and are as follows:
43

Table of Contents

Level 1
Fair value measurements based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these instruments does not entail a significant degree of judgment. Assets utilizing Level 1 inputs include U.S. Treasury securities, foreign government debt securities, exchange-traded equity securities, and certain marketable securities accounted for under fair value accounting.accounting, and assets and liabilities related to the deferred compensation plan assumed during the merger with Boston Private.
Level 2
Fair value measurements based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, directly or indirectly. Valuations for the AFS securities are provided by independent pricing service providers who have experience in valuing these securities and by comparisonare compared to and/orthe average of quoted market prices obtained from independent brokers. We perform a monthly analysis on the values received from third parties to ensure that the prices represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value. The procedures include, but are not limited to, initial and ongoing review of third-party pricing methodologies, review of pricing trends and monitoring of trading volumes. Additional corroboration, such as obtaining a non-binding price from a broker, may be obtained depending on the frequency of trades of the security and the level of liquidity or depth of the market. We ensure pricesPrices received from independent brokers represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value and are validated through the use of observable market inputs including comparable trades, yield curve, spreads and, when available, market indices. As a result of this analysis, if the Company determinesIf we determine that there is a more appropriate fair value based upon the available market data, the price received from the third party is adjusted accordingly. Below is a summary of the significant inputs used for each class of Level 2 assets and liabilities:
U.S. agency debentures: Fair value measurements of U.S. agency debentures are based on the characteristics specific to bonds held, such as issuer name, issuance date, coupon rate, maturity date and any applicable issuer call option features. Valuations are based on market spreads relative to similar term benchmark market interest rates, generally U.S. Treasury securities.
Agency-issued MBS: Agency-issued MBS are pools of individual conventional mortgage loans underwritten to U.S. agency standards with similar coupon rates, tenor, and other attributes such as geographic location, loan size and origination vintage. Fair value measurements of these securities are based on observable price adjustments relative to benchmark market interest rates taking into consideration estimated loan prepayment speeds.
Agency-issued CMO: Agency-issued CMO are structured into classes or tranches with defined cash flow characteristics and are collateralized by U.S. agency-issued mortgage pass-through securities. Fair value measurements of these securities incorporate similar characteristics of mortgage pass-through securities such as coupon rate, tenor, geographic location, loan size and origination vintage, in addition to incorporating the effect of estimated prepayment speeds on the cash flow structure of the class or tranche. These measurements incorporate observable market spreads over an estimated average life after considering the inputs listed above.
Agency-issued CMBS: Fair value measurements of these securities are based on spreads to benchmark market interest rates (usually U.S. Treasury rates or rates observable in the swaps market), prepayment speeds, loan default rate assumptions and loan loss severity assumptions on underlying loans.
Foreign exchange forward and option contract assets and liabilities: Fair value measurements of these assets and liabilities are priced based on spot and forward foreign currency rates and option volatility assumptions.
Interest rate derivative and interest rate swap assets and liabilities: Fair value measurements of interest rate derivatives and interest rate swaps are priced considering the coupon rate of the fixed leg of the contract and the

Table of Contents

variable coupon rate on the floating leg of the contract. Valuation is based on both spot and forward rates on the swap yield curve and the credit worthiness of the contract counterparty.
Total return swaps: Fair value measurements of total return swaps are based upon the performance of the reference asset, the variable coupon rate and spread of the floating leg of the contract.

Other equity securities: Fair value measurements of equity securities of public companies are priced based on quoted market prices less a discount if the securities are subject to certain sales restrictions. Certain sales restriction discounts generally range from 10 percent to 20 percent depending on the duration of the sale restrictions which typically range from three to six months.
Equity warrant assets (public portfolio): Fair value measurements of equity warrant assets of publicly-traded portfolio companies are valued based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model uses the price of publicly-traded

Table of Contents

companies (underlying stock price), stated strike prices, warrant expiration dates, the risk-free interest rate and market-observable option volatility assumptions.
Level 3
The fair value measurement is derived from valuation techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions we believe market participants would use in pricing the asset. The valuation techniques are consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or the cost approach used to measure fair value. Below is a summary of the valuation techniques used for each class of Level 3 assets:
Venture capital and private equity fund investments not measured at net asset value: Fair value measurements are based on consideration of a range of factors including, but not limited to, the price at which the investment was acquired, the term and nature of the investment, local market conditions, values for comparable securities, and as it relates to the private company, the current and projected operating performance, exit strategies and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement include the information about each portfolio company, including actual and forecasted results, cash position, recent or planned transactions and market comparable companies. Significant changes to any one of these inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the fair value measurement; however, we generally consider all factors available through ongoing communication with the portfolio companies and venture capital fund managers to determine whether there are changes to the portfolio company or the environment that indicate a change in the fair value measurement.
Equity warrant assets (public portfolio): Fair value measurements of equity warrant assets of publicly-traded portfolio companies are valued based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model uses the price of publicly-traded companies (underlying stock price), stated strike prices, warrant expiration dates, the risk-free interest rate and market-observable option volatility assumptions. Modeled asset values are further adjusted by applying a discount of up to 20 percent for certain warrants that have certain sales restrictions or other features that indicate a discount to fair value is warranted. As sale restrictions are lifted, discounts are adjusted downward to zero once all restrictions expire or are removed.
Equity warrant assets (private portfolio): Fair value measurements of equity warrant assets of private portfolio companies are priced based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the asset value by using stated strike prices, option expiration dates, risk-free interest rates and option volatility assumptions. Option volatility assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model are based on public market indices whose members operate in similar industries as companies in our private company portfolio. Option expiration dates are modified to account for estimates to actual life relative to stated expiration. Overall model asset values are further adjusted for a general lack of liquidity due to the private nature of the associated underlying company. There is a direct correlation between changes in the volatility and remaining life assumptions in isolation and the fair value measurement while there is an inverse correlation between changes in the liquidity discount assumption and the fair value measurement.

Contingent conversion rights (public portfolio): Fair value measurements of contingent conversion rights of publicly-traded portfolio companies are valued based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model uses the price of publicly-traded companies (underlying stock price), stated strike prices, warrant expiration dates, the risk-free interest rate and market-observable option volatility assumptions. Modeled asset values are further adjusted by applying a discount of up to 20 percent for certain conversion rights that have certain sales restrictions or other features that indicate a discount to fair value is warranted. As sale restrictions are lifted, discounts are adjusted downward to zero once all restrictions expire or are removed.

Contingent conversion rights (private portfolio): Fair value measurements are based on consideration of a range of factors including, but not limited to, actual and forecasted enterprise values, probability of conversion event occurring and limitations and conversion pricing outlined in the convertible debt agreement. Additionally, we have ongoing communication with the portfolio companies and relationship teams, to determine whether there is a material change in fair value. We use company provided valuation reports, if available, to support our valuation assumptions. These factors are specific to each portfolio company and a weighted average or range of values of the unobservable inputs is not meaningful.

(1)We adjust quoted market prices of public companies, which are subject to certain sales restrictions. Sales restriction discounts generally range from 10 percent to 20 percent depending on the duration of the sales restrictions, which typically range from three to six months.
(2)Our marketability discount is applied to all private company warrants to account for a general lack of liquidity due to the private nature of the associated underlying company. The quantitative measure used is based upon various option-pricing models. On a quarterly basis, a sensitivity analysis is performed on our marketability discount.
(3)We adjust the contractual remaining term of private company warrants based on our estimate of the actual remaining life, which we determine by utilizing historical data on terminations and exercises. At June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the weighted average contractual remaining term was 6.76.4 years, compared to our estimated remaining life of 2.72.6 years. On a quarterly basis, a sensitivity analysis is performed on our remaining life assumption.
(4)In determining the fair value of our private contingent conversion rights portfolio (not valued using the Black-Scholes model), we evaluate a variety of factors related to each underlying private portfolio company including, but not limited to, actual and forecasted enterprise values, the probability of a conversion event occurring and limitations and conversion pricing outlined in the convertible debt agreement. Additionally, we have ongoing communication with the portfolio companies and relationship teams, to determine whether there is a material change in fair value. We use company provided valuation reports, if available, to support our valuation assumptions. These factors are specific to each portfolio company and a weighted average or range of values of the unobservable inputs is not meaningful.

For the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, we did not have any transfers between Level 3 and Level 1. All transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021 and 2020 were due to the transfer of equity warrant assets from our private portfolio to our public portfolio (see our Level 3 reconciliation above).

Investments in Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value Per Share
FASB guidance over certain fund investments requires that we disclose the fair value of funds, significant investment strategies of the investees, redemption features of the investees, restrictions on the ability to sell investments, estimate of the period of time over which the underlying assets are expected to be liquidated by the investee and unfunded commitments related to the investments.
Our investments in debt funds and venture capital and private equity fund investments generally cannot be redeemed. Alternatively, we expect distributions, if any, to be received primarily through IPO and M&A activity of the underlying assets of the fund. Subject to applicable requirements under the Volcker Rule, we do not have any plans to sell any of these fund investments. If we decide to sell these investments in the future, the investee fund’s management must approve of the buyer before the sale of the investments can be completed. The fair values of the fund investments have been estimated using the net asset value per share of the investments, adjusted for any differences between our measurement date and the date of the fund investment’s net asset value by using the most recently available financial information from the investee general partner, for example MarchDecember 31st for our June 30March 31thst consolidated financial statements, adjusted for any contributions paid, distributions received from the investment, and significant fund transactions or market events during the reporting period.
The following table is a summary of the estimated fair values of these investments and remaining unfunded commitments for each major category of these investments as of June 30, 2021:March 31, 2022:

(1)Venture capital and private equity fund investments within non-marketable securities (fair value accounting) include investments made by our managed funds of funds and one of our direct venture funds (consolidated VIEs) and investments in venture capital and private equity fund investments (unconsolidated VIEs). Collectively, these investments in venture capital and private equity funds are primarily in U.S. and global technology and life science/healthcare companies. Included in the fair value and unfunded commitments of fund investments under fair value accounting are $79$94 million and $2 million, respectively, attributable to noncontrolling interests. It is estimated that we will receive distributions from the fund investments over the next 10 to 13 years, depending on the age of the funds and any potential extensions of terms of the funds.
(2)Venture capital and private equity fund investments, debt funds, and other fund investments within non-marketable securities (equity method accounting) include funds that invest in or lend money to primarily U.S. and global technology and life science/healthcare companies. It is estimated that we will receive distributions from the funds over the next 5 to 8 years, depending on the age of the funds and any potential extensions of the terms of the funds.
16.14.    Legal Matters
Certain lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business have been filed or are pending against us and/or our affiliates, and we may from time to time be involved in other legal or regulatory proceedings. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, we establish accruals for all such matters, including expected settlements, when we believe it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. When a loss contingency is not both probable and estimable, we do not establish an accrual. Any such loss estimates are inherently uncertain, based on currently available information and are subject to management’s judgment and various assumptions. Due to the inherent subjectivity of these estimates and unpredictability of outcomes of legal proceedings, any amounts accrued may not represent the ultimate resolution of such matters.
To the extent we believe any potential loss relating to such matters may have a material impact on our liquidity, consolidated financial position, results of operations, and/or our business as a whole and is reasonably possible but not probable, we aim to disclose information relating to such potential loss. We also aim to disclose information relating to any material potential loss that is probable but not reasonably estimable. In such cases, where reasonably practicable, we aim to
60

Table of Contents

provide an estimate of loss or range of potential loss. No disclosures are generally made for any loss contingencies that are deemed to be remote.
Based upon information available to us, our review of lawsuits and claims filed or pending against us to date and consultation with our outside legal counsel, we have not recognized a material accrual liability for any such matters, nor do we currently expect that these matters will result in a material liability to the Company. However, the outcome of litigation and other legal and regulatory matters is inherently uncertain, and it is possible that one or more of such matters currently
50

Table of Contents

pending or threatened could have an unanticipated material adverse effect on our liquidity, consolidated financial position, results of operations, and/or our business as a whole, in the future.
17.15.    Related Parties
We have no material related party transactions requiring disclosure. In the ordinary course of business, the Bank may extend credit to related parties, including executive officers, directors, principal shareholders and their related interests. Additionally, we provide real estate secured loans to eligible employees through our EHOP. For additional details, see Note 19 — “Employee Compensation and Benefit Plans" under Part II, Item 8 of our 20202021 Form 10-K.

The operating and economic environment during the second quarter continued to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and related government orders. Statements about the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, operations, financial performance and prospects may constitute forward-looking statements and are subject to the risk that the actual impacts may differ, possibly materially, from what is reflected in those forward-looking statements due to factors and future developments that are uncertain, unpredictable and in many cases beyond our control, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, potential variations of the virus, actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic, and the direct and indirect impact of the pandemic on our customers, third parties and us.
Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We urge investors to consider all of these factors, among others, carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. The forward-looking statements included in this filing are made only as of the date of this filing. We assume no obligation and do not intend to revise or update any forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, except as required by law.
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as presented in Part I, Item 1 of this report and in conjunction with our 20202021 Form 10-K.
Management’s Overview of SecondFirst Quarter 20212022 Performance
The second quarter was yet anotherStrong execution and higher rates drove robust earnings and profitability in the first quarter of outstanding performance2022 even as strong marketsmarket volatility slowed client liquidity growth and effective execution continued to drive our extraordinary growth. We delivered excellent performance across our business as we hit a new milestone of $50pressured valuations and investment banking income. Net interest income exceeded $1.0 billion in period-end loan balances,a single quarter for the first time in our history as a result of strong balance sheet growth and improved yields on fixed income securities. Core fee income remained strong across all categories and was driven by a significant increase in client investment fees as a result of the March 2022 rate hike. Growth in our net interest income and core fee income more than offset the moderation in SVB Securities revenue and warrant and investment gains of $314 million, net of noncontrolling interests, record foreign exchange fees, robust SVB Leerink revenues of $120 million and average client funds of $308 billion. Continuing the trend of recent quarters, our balance sheet growth more than offset pressure from the low rate environment, driving net interest income to a 42 percent increase from the year ago quarter. Additionally, creditgains. Credit quality remains stable as economic conditions continued to improve.
We continued to invest in our strategic priorities to drivebe excellent with low net loan charge-offs and support our long-term growth. During the quarter, we expanded SVB Leerink, which has been actively hiring leaders and senior bankers to help enhance capabilities and capacity. On July 1, we closed our acquisition of Boston Private, which will significantly accelerate and scale the growth of our private bank and wealth management strategy. Also on the investment front, we recently announced a joint venture with Nasdaq and a consortium of leading investment banks to create Nasdaq Private Market, an institutional-grade, secondary trading venuedeclining nonperforming loans.

for private company stock. Lastly, our focus on continuous infrastructure and regulatory investments supports our tremendous growth as we prepare to become a Category III banking organization. Overall, these investments have allowed us to deepen and expand our platform as we continue to enhance the client experience, improve employee enablement, drive revenue growth, enhance risk management and ensure that our growth momentum is not interrupted.
Our exceptional balance sheet growth continued to outpace our forecasts. To support this momentum, we raised $1.5 billion in preferred equity and senior debt, issued $150 million in common equity from the full exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option related to our first quarter common equity offering and provided a $1.3 billion downstream capital infusion to the bank. These capital measures combined with our strong profitability enable us to sustain our growth momentum and support our capital objectives.
Continuing COVID-19 Pandemic Environment
The global COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in unprecedented challenges and volatility in economic, market and business conditions. It has caused significant economic and financial disruptions that have adversely affected or otherwise impacted our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In recent months there has been some improvement in the economic environment and resilience in the markets in which we operate. With the seemingly wider availability and distribution of vaccinations and the easing of some restrictions in the U.S. and other parts of the world, we have seen steps towards broader containment. However, there still remains much uncertainty around containment of the pandemic, particularly in light of the recent spread of variants of the virus that have caused the number of cases to increase in the United States and other international locations where we operate. We cannot predict at this time the scope and duration of the pandemic, which will depend on a variety of factors, including but not limited to, the extent and spread of variants of the virus; the availability, adoption and efficacy of vaccines, as well as government and other actions to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, such as stay at home orders, restrictions on business activities, health and safety guidelines, economic relief for individuals and businesses, and monetary policy measures. The economic, market and business conditions impacted by COVID-19 may be slow to recover or may worsen if the pandemic continues for a prolonged period of time. Even if the pandemic subsides, there may be additional variants of the virus or a resurgence of the pandemic, as we have seen domestically and internationally. We continue to be subject to heightened business, operational (including fraud), market, credit and other risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic environment, which may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

FollowingThe publication of the 2017 announcement by the U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority that it would no longer compel participating banks to submit rates for LIBOR after 2021, regulators, trade associations and financial industry working groups have identified recommended replacement rates for LIBOR, as well as other Interbank Offered Rates, and have published recommended conventions to allow new and existing products to incorporate fallbacks. The continuation of all British Pound Sterling, Euro, Swiss Franc and Japanese Yen LIBOR settings and one-week and two-month U.S. dollar LIBOR settings on the current basis are due to terminateterminated at the end of December 2021, withleaving the remaining U.S. dollar LIBOR settings (i.e., overnight, one month, three month, six month and 12 month) in place, which are expected to terminate at the end of June 2023. Therefore, existing contracts referencing all other U.S. dollar LIBOR settings must be remediated no later than June 30, 2023. We hold instruments that may be impacted by the discontinuance of LIBOR, including loans, investments, and derivative products that use LIBOR as a benchmark rate. Our LIBOR exposure is primarily in settings other than 1-week or 2-month U.S. dollar LIBOR.
We have established aOur LIBOR Transition Program to identify and address all LIBOR transition issues, consistingconsists of dedicated leadership and staff, thatand continues to engage with relevant business lines and support groups. As part of this program, we continue to identify, assess, and monitor risks associated with the discontinuation of LIBOR. As such, we have implemented a process to assessLIBOR, including monitoring the population of loans and contracts that will beare impacted by thisand how LIBOR reference rate reform. Asrates are reflected in our measurement of March 31, 2021, we ceased issuing new loans denominatedsensitivity to changes in British Pound Sterling, Euro, or Swiss Francinterest rates until publication of LIBOR rates are fully phased out. We completed a review across all business lines and confirmed that reference LIBOR. We planlanguage to no longer offer U.S. dollar LIBOR-based loans effective December 31, 2021.
We intendfacilitate a transition to offer SOFR as a replacement index for U.S. dollar LIBOR. SOFR is the ARRC preferred alternative to U.S. dollar LIBOR. It represents a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities and is compliant with IOSCO standards. Furthermore, SOFR is suitable for use across a broad range of financial products, including derivatives and many cash products that historically referenced U.S. dollar LIBOR.
As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $16.1 billion of loans that reference LIBOR, $118 million fixed-income investment securities that reference LIBOR and $2.8 billion of notional balance exposure for our derivative contracts that reference LIBOR.
We are currently evaluating the use and when we might apply the allowable practical expedients under ASU 2020-04, Reference rate Reform (Topic 848), which became effective on March 12, 2020, as it relates to our loans, investment securities and derivative portfolios.an

alternative reference rate is included in our existing deals that carry LIBOR exposure. Migration of legacy LIBOR contracts has commenced based on regulatory timelines, with proactive remediation conducted for existing LIBOR facilities that contained currencies tied to LIBOR rates that ceased publication as of December 31, 2021. A communications and training plan supports the delivery of new Alternative Reference Rate (“ARR”) products and assists with the transition away from LIBOR.
We have adopted SOFR as our preferred replacement index for U.S. dollar LIBOR and received Term SOFR licensing from the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in the fourth quarter of 2021. We currently offer products based on Alternative Reference Rates across multiple currencies including the U.S. Dollar, British Pound Sterling, and Euro.

+ Consists of fee income for deposit services, letters of credit and standby letters of credit, credit cards, client investments, wealth management and trust, foreign exchange and lending-related activities. This is a non-GAAP financial measure. (See the non-GAAP reconciliation under “Results of Operations—Noninterest Income”)
++ Consists of investment banking revenue and commissions. This is a non-GAAP financial measure. (See the non-GAAP reconciliation under “Results of Operations—Noninterest Income”).
+++ This ratio excludes certain financial line items where performance is typically subject to market or other conditions beyond our control and excludes SVB Leerink revenue and expenses. It is calculated by dividing noninterest expense after adjusting for noninterest expense attributable to SVB Leerink, merger-related charges resulting from the acquisition of Boston Private and other non-recurring expenses by total revenue after adjusting for noninterest income attributable to SVB Leerink, net gains or losses on investment securities and equity warrant assets, investment banking revenue and commissions. Additionally, noninterest expense and total revenue are adjusted for income or losses and expenses attributable to noncontrolling interests and adjustments to net interest income for a taxable equivalent basis. This is a non-GAAP financial measure. (See the non-GAAP reconciliation under "Results of Operations-Noninterest Expense").
++++ In March 2020, the federal banking agencies provided transitional relief to banking organizations with respect to the impact of CECL on regulatory capital. Under the 2020 CECL Transition Rule, banking organizations may delay the estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital for two years, followed by a three-year period to phase out the aggregate capital benefit provided during the initial two-year delay. We have elected to use this five-year transition option. For additional details, see "Capital Resources" within "Consolidated Financial Condition" under Part 1, Item 2 of this report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our accounting policies are fundamental to understanding our financial condition and results of operations. We have identified one policy as being critical because it requires us to make particularly difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, and because it is likely that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and we base these estimates on historical experiences and various other factors and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There have been no significant changes during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under Part II, Item 7 of our 20202021 Form 10-K.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), which allows multiple hedged layers to be designated in a single closed portfolio of financial assets. As a result, an entity can achieve hedge accounting for hedges of a greater proportion of the interest rate risk inherent in the assets included in the closed portfolio, further aligning hedge accounting with our risk management strategies. The update allows for a one-time transfer of certain debt securities from HTM to AFS upon adoption. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), which eliminates the accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The update also requires disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Results of Operations
Net Interest Income and Margin (Fully Taxable Equivalent Basis)
Net interest income is defined as the difference between: (i) interest earned on loans, fixed income investments in our AFS and HTM securities portfolios and short-term investment securities and (ii) interest paid on funding sources. Net interest margin is defined as annualized net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. Net interest income and net interest margin are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis to consistently reflect income from taxable loans and securities and tax-exempt securities based on the applicable federal statutory tax rate.
Analysis of Net Interest Income Changes Due to Volume and Rate (Fully Taxable Equivalent Basis)
Net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as “volume change.” Net interest income is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as “rate change.” The following table sets forth changes in interest income for each major category of interest-earning assets and interest expense for each major category of interest-bearing liabilities. The table also reflects the amount of simultaneous changes attributable to both volume and rate changes for the periods indicated. For this table, changes that are not solely due to either volume or rate are allocated in proportion to the percentage changes in average volume and average rate.

Net interest incomeNII increased by $218$426 million to $735 million$1.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to $517$665 million for the comparable 20202021 period. Overall, our net interest incomeNII increased primarily from increases in average balances of our fixed income investment securities and loans due to increases in average balances.loans. The increase in net interest incomeNII was partially offset by lower yields on fixed income investment securities and loans. Upon the completion of the Boston Private acquisition in July 2021, a $104 million fair market value adjustment was made on the acquired loans. that will be amortized into loan interest income over the contractual terms of the underlying loans using the constant effective yield method.

(See reconciliations of non-GAAP measures used below under “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”)
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance (including, but not limited to, non-GAAP core fee income, non-GAAP SVB LeerinkSecurities revenue, non-GAAP core fee income plus non-GAAP SVB LeerinkSecurities revenue, non-GAAP noninterest income, non-GAAP net gains on investment securities, non-GAAP noninterest expensenet of noncontrolling interests and non-GAAP financial ratios). These supplemental performance measures may vary from, and may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures by other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure may also be a financial metric that is not required by GAAP or other applicable requirement.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by (i) excluding items that represent income attributable to investors other than us and our subsidiaries and (ii) providing additional information used by management that is not otherwise required by GAAP or other applicable requirements. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or preferable to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Included in net income is income and expense attributable to noncontrolling interests. We recognize, as part of our investment funds management business through SVB Capital and SVB Leerink,Securities, the entire income or loss from funds

Gains on Investment Securities, Net
Net gains on investment securities include gains and losses from our non-marketable and other equity securities, which include public equity securities held as a result of exercised equity warrant assets, as well as gains and losses from sales of our AFS debt securities portfolio, when applicable.
Our non-marketable and other equity securities portfolio primarily represents investments in venture capital and private equity funds, SPD-SVB, debt funds, private and public portfolio companies and qualified affordable housing projects. We experience variability in the performance of our non-marketable and other equity securities from period to period, which
75

Table of Contents

results in net gains or losses on investment securities (both realized and unrealized). This variability is due to a number of factors, including unrealized changes in the values of our investments, changes in the amount of realized gains and losses from distributions, changes in liquidity events and general economic and market conditions. Unrealized gains or losses from non-marketable and other equity securities for any single period are typically driven by valuation changes, and are therefore subject to potential increases or decreases in future periods. Such variability may lead to volatility in the gains or losses from
63

Table of Contents

investment securities. As such, our results for a particular period are not necessarily indicative of our expected performance in a future period.
The extent to which any unrealized gains or losses will become realized is subject to a variety of factors, including, among other things, the expiration of certain sales restrictions to which these equity securities may be subject to (e.g. lock-up agreements), changes in prevailing market prices, market conditions, the actual sales or distributions of securities, and the timing of such actual sales or distributions, which, to the extent such securities are managed by our managed funds, are subject to our funds' separate discretionary sales/distributions and governance processes.
Our AFS securities portfolio is a fixed income investment portfolio that is managed with the objective of earning an appropriate portfolio yield over the long-term while maintaining sufficient liquidity and credit diversification as well as addressing our asset/liability management objectives. Though infrequent, sales of debt securities in our AFS securities portfolio may result in net gains or losses and are conducted pursuant to the guidelines of our investment policy related to the management of our liquidity position and interest rate risk.
Three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had net gains on investment securities of $305 million, compared to $35 million for the comparable 2020 period.

Non-GAAP net gains on investment securities, net of noncontrolling interests, of $192 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were driven by the following:
Gains of $110 million from our managed fund of funds portfolio driven by unrealized valuations increases of private and public positions as well as fund distributions driven primarily by realized gains from one public company position, and
Gains of $16 million from our public equity securities investments, driven primarily by realized gains of $38 million from the sale of Coinbase Global, Inc. ("Coinbase") common stock, offset by valuation decreases of positions held.
Six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had net gains on investment securities of $472 million, compared to $81 million for the comparable 2020 period. Non-GAAP net gains on investment securities, net of noncontrolling interests, were $334 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $68 million for the comparable 2020 period. Non-GAAP net gains, net of noncontrolling interests, of $334 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were driven primarily by the following:
Gains of $128 million from our managed fund of funds portfolio driven by unrealized valuations increases of private and public positions as well as fund distributions driven primarily by realized gains from one public company position,
Gains of $88 million from our public equity securities investments, driven primarily by realized gains of $43 million from the sale of Big Commerce, Inc. common stock and $38 million from the sale of Coinbase common stock, and
Gains of $56 million from our strategic and other investments driven primarily by net unrealized valuation increases.

Non-GAAP Noninterest Expense
We use and report non-GAAP noninterest expense, non-GAAP taxable equivalent revenue and non-GAAP core operating efficiency ratio, which excludes noncontrolling interests, SVB Leerink, merger-related charges and other non-recurring expenses. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by: (i) excluding certain items that represent expenses attributable to investors other than us and our subsidiaries, or certain items that do not occur every reporting period; or (ii) providing additional information used by management that is not otherwise required by GAAP or other applicable requirements. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or preferable to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

AFS Securities
Period-end AFS securities were $23.9$26.0 billion at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to $30.9$27.2 billion at December 31, 2020,2021, a decrease of $7.0$1.2 billion, or 22.84.5 percent. The $7.0 billion decrease in period-end AFS securities balances from December 31, 20202021 to June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, was driven primarily by a $5.8$1.0 billion re-designationdecrease in the fair value of our AFS securities to HTM securities,portfolio, reflective of higher interest rates, as well as paydowns and maturities of $2.9AFS securities of $462 million during the quarter. In addition, asset liability management repositioning drove a $5.1 billion sale of AFS securities and a decrease in fair valuetermination of $567 million due to the increase in interest rates, partially offset by purchases of $2.3 billion. Securities classified as AFS are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as unrealized gains or lossesrelated swaps, resulting in a separate componentnet pre-tax realized gain of stockholders' equity.$49 million, with reinvestment of proceeds from the sale at higher yields.
The following table summarizes the remaining contractual principal maturities and fully taxable equivalent yields on fixed income securities, carried at fair value, classified as AFS as of June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. The weighted average yield is computed using the amortized cost of fixed income investment securities, which are reported at fair value. For U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. agency debentures and foreign government debt securities, the expected maturity is the actual contractual maturity of the notes. Expected maturities for MBS may differ significantly from their contractual maturities because mortgage borrowers have the right to prepay outstanding loan obligations with or without penalties. MBS classified as AFS typically have original contractual maturities from 10 to 30 years whereas expected average lives of these securities tend to be significantly shorter and vary based upon structure and prepayments in lower interest rate environments. The weighted average yield on mortgage-backed securities is based on prepayment assumptions at the purchase date. Actual yields earned may differ significantly based upon actual prepayments.

HTM Securities
Period-end HTM securities were $60.0$98.7 billion at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to $16.6$98.2 billion at December 31, 2020,2021, an increase of $43.4 billion,$512 million, or 261.60.5 percent. The $43.4 billion$512 million increase in period-end HTM securitysecurities balances from December 31, 20202021 to June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 was driven by purchases of $42.9$4.6 billion, and the re-designation of $5.7 billion of AFS securities to HTM securities, partially offset by $5.2$4.0 billion in paydowns and maturities. The securities were re-designated for capital management purposes and consisted primarily of agency-issued CMBS and CMO securities with unrealized losses totaling $78 million, which are recorded in AOCI.

Table of Contents

Securities classified as HTM are accounted for at cost with no adjustments for changes in fair value. For securities re-designated as HTM from AFS, the net unrealized gains or losses at the date of transfer will continue to be reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity and amortized over the life of the securities in a manner consistent with the amortization of a premium or discount.
The following table summarizes the remaining contractual principal maturities net of ACL and fully taxable equivalent yields on fixed income investment securities classified as HTM as of June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. Interest income on certain municipal bonds and notes (non-taxable investments) are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis using the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0 percent. The weighted average yield is computed using the amortized cost of fixed income investment securities. For U.S. agency debentures, the expected maturity is the actual contractual maturity of the notes. Expected remaining maturities for certain U.S. agency debentures may occur earlier than their contractual maturities because the note issuers have the right to call outstanding amounts ahead of their contractual maturity. Expected maturities for MBS may differ significantly from their contractual maturities because mortgage borrowers have the right to prepay outstanding loan obligations with or without penalties. MBS classified as HTM typically have original contractual maturities from 10 to 30 years whereas expected average lives of these securities tend to be significantly shorter and vary based upon structure and prepayments in lower interest rate environments. The weighted averageexpected yield on mortgage-backed securities is based on prepayment assumptions at the purchase date. Actual yields earned may differ significantly based upon actual prepayments.

Portfolio duration is a standard measure used to approximate changes in the market value of fixed income instruments due to a change in market interest rates. The measure is an estimate based on the level of current market interest rates, expectations for changes in the path of forward rates and the effect of forward rates on mortgage prepayment speed assumptions. As such, portfolio duration will fluctuate with changes in market interest rates. Changes in portfolio duration are also impacted by changes in the mix of longer versus shorter term-to-maturity securities. The estimated weighted-average duration of our fixed income investment securities portfolio was 4.54.9 and 3.74.0 years at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. The weighted-average duration of our total fixed income securities portfolio including the impact of our fair value swaps was 3.94.8 years at June 30, 2021. We are focused on shortening AFS portfolio duration to approximately two years to mitigate OCI risk while buying three- to five-year duration HTM securities to support portfolio yields.March 31, 2022. The weighted-average duration of our AFS securities portfolio was 4.23.7 years at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and 3.73.5 years at December 31, 2020.2021. The weighted-average duration of our AFS securities portfolio including the impact of our fair value swaps was 2.43.1 years at June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. The weighted-average duration of our HTM securities portfolio was 4.65.2 years at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and 3.74.1 years at December 31, 2020. 2021.We continue to invest excess on-balance sheet liquidity in high-quality securities (agency MBS/CMO/CMBS, municipal and corporate securities), primarily classified as HTM.

Non-Marketable and Other Equity Securities
Our non-marketable and other equity securities portfolio primarily represents investments in venture capital and private equity funds, SPD-SVB, debt funds, private and public portfolio companies, including public equity securities held as a result of equity warrant assets exercised, and qualified affordable housing projects. Included in our non-marketable and other equity securities carried under fair value accounting are amounts that are attributable to noncontrolling interests. We are required under GAAP to consolidate 100% of these investments that we are deemed to control, even though we may own less than 100% of such entities. See below for a summary of the carrying value (as reported) of non-marketable and other equity securities compared to the amounts attributable to SVBFG.
Period-end non-marketable and other equity securities were $1.9$2.6 billion ($1.62.2 billion net of noncontrolling interest) at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 compared to $1.8$2.5 billion ($1.62.2 billion net of noncontrolling interest) at December 31, 2020,2021, an increase of $141$62 million, or 7.82.4 percent. The following table summarizes the carrying value (as reported) of non-marketable and other equity securities compared to the amounts attributable to SVBFG (which generally represents the carrying value times our ownership percentage) at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020:2021:

contributions paid, distributions received from the investment, and significant fund transactions or market events during the reporting period.
(3)Investments classified as "Other investments without a readily determinable fair value" include direct equity investments in private companies. The carrying value is based on the price at which the investment was acquired plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments. We consider a range of factors when adjusting the fair value of these investments, including, but not limited to, the term and nature of the investment, local market conditions, values for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance, exit strategies, financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment and a discount for certain investments that have lock-up restrictions or other features that indicate a discount to fair value is warranted. For further details on the carrying value of these investments refer to Note 5 — “Investment Securities" of the “Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)” under Part I, Item 1 of this report.
(4)Investments classified as other equity securities (fair value accounting) represent shares held in public companies as a result of exercising public equity warrant assets and direct equity investments in public companies held by our consolidated funds.

Volcker Rule
The Volcker Rule prohibits, subject to certain exceptions, a banking entity, such as the Company, from sponsoring, investing in, or having certain relationships with covered funds. Under the currently effective regulations implementing the Volcker Rule, covered funds are defined to include many venture capital and private equity funds.
75

Table of Contents

In June 2017, we received notice that the Federal Reserve approved the Company’s application for an extension of the permitted conformance period for the Company’s investments in “illiquid” covered funds (“Restricted Volcker Investments”). The approval extends the deadline by which the Company must sell, divest, restructure or otherwise conform such investments to the provisions of the Volcker Rule by the earlier of (i) July 21, 2022, or (ii) the date by which each fund matures by its terms or is otherwise conformed to the Volcker Rule.

Table of Contents

There have been various amendments to the Volcker Rule in recent years. In particular, certain amendments that became effective October 1, 2020, provide for, among other things, the adoption of new exclusions from the definition of “covered fund” for venture capital funds and credit funds that meet certain criteria. As a result of these amendments, we believe that none of the Restricted Volcker Investments will be required to be disposed of or will otherwise conform to the Volcker Rule requirements. We expect that all of our Restricted Volcker Investments will (i) qualify for these new exclusions; (ii) otherwise be excluded from the definition of "covered fund"; or (iii) be subject to a liquidation or dissolution process (For more information about the Volcker Rule, see “Business—Supervision and Regulation” under Part 1, Item 1 of our 20202021 Form 10-K.)
Loans
Loans at amortized cost basis increased by $5.6$2.4 billion to $50.8$68.7 billion at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to $45.2$66.3 billion at December 31, 2020.2021. Unearned income was $248$207 million at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and $226$250 million at December 31, 2020.2021. The increase in period-end loans was driven primarily by growth in our Global Fund Banking and Private Bank as well asportfolio, with continued growth in theour Technology and Life Science/Healthcare and Private Bank loan portfolios. This growth was partially offset by a decrease in our SBA loans driven by an acceleration of forgiveness of these loans during the second quarter.

The vast majority"Risk Factors" under Part II, Item 1A of this portfolio consists of capital call lines of credit, the repayment of which is dependent on the payment of capital calls by the underlying limited partner investors in the funds managed by these firms. These facilities are generally governed by meaningful financial covenants oriented towards ensuring that the funds' remaining callable capital is sufficient to repay the loan, and larger commitments (typically provided to larger private equity funds) are typically secured by an assignment of the general partner's right to call capital from the fund's limited partner investors.report.

(ii) Technology and Life Science/Healthcare
Our technology and life science/healthcare loan portfolios include loans to clients at the various stages of their life cycles. The risk-based segments for our technology and life science/healthcare market segments are classified as investor dependent, cash flow dependent or balance sheet dependent for reporting purposes.
Investor dependent loans represented 10.5 percent of total loans at June 30, 2021 and 11.0 percent at December 31, 2020. These loans are made to companies in both our Accelerator (early-stage) and Growth practices (mid-stage and later-stage).
Cash flow dependent loans, which include sponsor led buyout lending, represented 9.6 percent of total loans at June 30, 2021 and 10.9 percent at December 31, 2020. Sponsor led buyout loans represented 3.8 percent of total loans at June 30, 2021 and 4.4 percent at December 31, 2020.
Balance sheet dependent loans, which include asset-based loans, represented 5.5 percent of total loans at June 30, 2021 and 4.8 percent at December 31, 2020. Working capital lines and accounts receivable financing, both part of our asset-based lending, each represented one percent and half a percent of total loans, respectively, at both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

(iii) SVB Private Bank
Our SVB Private Bank clients are primarily executive leaders and senior investment professionals in the innovation economy. Our lending to SVB Private Bank clients represented 10.4 percent of total loans at June 30, 2021 and 10.9 percent at December 31, 2020. Many of our Private Bank products are secured by real estate, which represented 83.3 percent of this portfolio at June 30, 2021; these products include mortgage loans, owner occupied commercial mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit and other secured lending products such as real estate secured loans to eligible employees through our EHOP. The remaining balance of our Private Bank portfolio consists of restricted and private stock loans, capital call lines of credit, lines of credit against liquid assets and other secured and unsecured lending products.
Paycheck Protection Program
We accepted applications under the PPP administered by the SBA under the CARES Act, as amended by the Economic Aid Act and originated loans to qualified small businesses until the loan origination phase of the PPP ended on June 30, 2021, set forth under the PPP Extension Act of 2021. Under the terms of the program, loans funded through the PPP are eligible to be forgiven if certain requirements are met, including using the funds for certain costs relating to payroll, healthcare and qualifying mortgage interest, rent and utility payments. Eligible expenses also include covered operations expenditures, covered property damage costs, covered supplier costs and covered worker protection expenditures. To the extent not forgiven, loans are subject to certain terms including, among others, the following: maximum two-year term for loans issued before June 5, 2020 (unless borrower and lender agree otherwise); a maximum five-year term for loans issued on or after June 5, 2020; an interest rate of 1.0%; deferral of loan payments until a loan forgiveness decision is rendered or until 10 months after the end of a borrower’s forgiveness covered period; and no requirement for any collateral or personal guarantees. PPP borrowers are not required to pay any fees to the government or the lender, and the loans may be repaid by the borrower at any time. The SBA, however, will pay lenders a processing fee based on the size of the PPP loan, ranging from 1% to 5% of the loan for loans made before the enactment of the Economic Aid Act, and thereafter, a processing fee of (1) the lesser of 50% of the loan or $2,500 for loans of not more than $50,000, (2) 5% of the loan for loans above $50,000 but not more than $350,000, and (3) 3% of the loan for loans above $350,000 (and, in case of the first draw PPP loans only, a fee of 1% for the loans at or above $2,000,000). Additional loans were issuable up until June 30, 2021, pursuant to the PPP Extension Act of 2021, and qualifying PPP borrowers were able to

apply for second draw loans in an amount of up to $2 million. We continued to participate in the forgiveness stage of the PPP inthrough the secondfirst quarter of 2021, including the second draw loan and the forgiveness stages of the program.2022.
As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we have outstanding PPP loans in the amount of $843$175 million, as approved by the SBA.SBA, compared to $331 million at December 31, 2021. This funded amount reflects repayments received as of such date.
Loan Deferral Programs
In April 2020, we implemented three loan payment deferral programs targeted to assist borrowers who were the most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. These programs included relief for venture-backed, private bank and wine borrowers who met certain criteria. The three-month private bank and wine deferral programs ended, and payments resumed, in the third quarter of 2020. The six-month venture debt and private bank deferral programs ended, and payments resumed, in the fourth quarter of 2020 for a majority of participants. As of June 30,March 31, 2022, no loan modifications remained active under these programs. As of December 31, 2021, loans modified under these programs had outstanding balances of $227$10 million, allwhich consisted entirely of which is for venture-backed borrowers. These amounts reflect repayments received as of June 30, 2021.borrowers who lengthened their existing interest-only payment period under the deferral program.
For loans modified under theseadditional details on our PPP and loan deferral programs, in accordance with the provisionssee “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Section 4013Financial Condition and Results of the CARES Act, we elected to not apply TDR classification to borrowers who were current as of December 31, 2019. In addition, for loans modified under these programs that did not meet the CARES Act criteria, we applied the guidance in an interagency statement issued by bank regulatory agencies. Using this guidance, we may find that borrowers are not experiencing financial difficulty that may otherwise result in a TDR classification, in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-40, if loan modifications are performed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, provide short-term loan payment deferrals (e.g. six months in duration) and are granted to borrowers who were current as of the implementation date of the loan modification program. We evaluated all loans modified under these programs against the CARES Act and interagency guidance, as applicable, and determined the loan modifications would not be considered TDRs. We did not defer interest income recognition during periods of payment deferral, nor did any qualifying modification trigger nonaccrual status.
State Concentrations
Approximately 27 percent of our outstanding total loan balances as of June 30, 2021 were to borrowers based in California compared to 26 percent as of December 31, 2020. Additionally, as of June 30, 2021, borrowers in New York increased to 11 percent compared to 10 percent as of December 31, 2020. Borrowers in Massachusetts decreased to 9 percent at June 30, 2021, compared to 10 percent as of December 31, 2020. Other than California and New York, as of June 30, 2021 there are no states with loan balances greater than or equal to 10 percent.

Credit Quality Indicators
Our total criticized loans and nonaccrual loans represented 23 percent of our total loans as of June 30, 2021both March 31, 2022 and 3 percent at December 31, 2020.2021. Criticized and nonaccrual loans to early-stage clients represented 18 and 1513 percent of our total criticized and nonaccrual loan balances at June 30, 2021both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020, respectively.2021. Loans to early-stage investor dependent clients represent a relatively small percentage of our overall portfolio at 32 percent of total loans at both June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and 2 percent at December 31, 2020.2021. It is common for an early-stage client’s remaining liquidity to fall temporarily below the threshold for a pass-rated credit during its capital-raising period for a new round of funding. Based on our experience, for most early-stage clients, this situation typically lasts one to two quarters and generally resolves itself with a subsequent round of venture funding, though there are exceptions, from time to time. As a result, we expect that each of our early-stage clients will reside in our criticized portfolio during a portion of their life cycle.
WeAs of March 31, 2022, we have identified the following risks to credit quality: (i) increased COVID-19 exposure from CRE loans and (ii) larger Growth Stage and Innovation C&I loan sizes.
(i) Increased COVID-19 exposure from CRE loans - Commercial real estate is generally more impacted by restrictions to reduce the spread of COVID-19 and transitions to hybrid work environments. This risk is mitigated by the reserves held for this loan class and our limited overall exposure, with commercial real estate representing only 4 percent of total loans at March 31, 2022.
(ii) Larger Growth Stage and Innovation C&I loan sizes - The growth of our balance sheet and our clients continues to increase the number of large loans, which may introduce greater volatility in credit metrics.
Additionally, we have identified the following factors that could have a positive impact on credit quality: (i) recovering business activity, (ii) strong positioning of Technology and Life Science/Healthcare clients and (iii) an improved risk profile of our loan portfolio.
(i) Recovering business activity - As COVID-19 restrictions ease, borrowers continue to monitor our loan portfolio forbenefit from resuming business activities.
(ii) Strong positioning of Technology and Life Science/Healthcare clients - Record venture capital investment over the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Vaccine distributionspast two years has extended clients' runway, and re-openings have contributed to an improved economic environment, although we continue to watchsee significant dry powder available in the emergencemarket.
(iii) Improved risk profile of COVID-19 variants and continued spread. Ourloan portfolio - As described above, our Investor Dependent - Early Stage class, which historically has been the most vulnerable loan class with the most losses, is now only 2 percent of total loans. Furthermore, 71 percent of total loans are now in our Global Fund Banking and Private Bank portfolios continue toclasses, which have strong credit performance, which is consistent with the historically low credit losses we have typically experienced. Wine clients' sales have improved with re-openings, but we are cautious of the potential for fires and crop loss as a result of the current drought and historic high temperatures in the western United States. We have seen robust venture capital investment activity in the technology and life science/healthcare sectors, supporting ongoing improvement of the credit quality of our clients in those spaces.experience.

Additionally, we have minimal direct exposure to Russia and Ukraine and accordingly we do not currently expect any material impact to our credit quality from the ongoing conflict.However, a continuation of the conflict or a deterioration in global economic or political conditions may influence U.S. economic conditions, which in turn could have an impact on credit quality.
We continue to monitor the current environment to evaluate the impact of the above on our portfolio's credit quality and to identify the emergence of additional factors.
Credit Quality, Allowance for Credit Losses and Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consist of loans on nonaccrual status, loans past due 90 days or more still accruing interest and OREO and other foreclosed assets. We measure all loans placed on nonaccrual status for impairment based on the fair value of the underlying collateral or the net present value of the expected cash flows. The table below sets forth certain data and ratios between nonperforming loans, nonperforming assets and the ACL for loans and unfunded credit commitments:

To determine the ACL for performing loans as of June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we utilized three scenarios, on a weighted basis, from Moody's Analytics June 2021March 2022 and December 20202021 forecasts, respectively, in our expected lifetime loss estimate. The baseline scenario, which carries the highest weighting of 40 percent in both periods, reflected an unemployment rate of 5.83.9 percent and a housing price index growth rate of 8.5 percent as of June 30, 2021, as a result of business re-openings and the effect of government aid programs during the first half of 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to 6.74.3 percent and 5.9 percent as of December 31, 2020.2021, respectively. The baseline scenario also included ascenario's GDP growth rate of 10.9 percent and 4.0dropped to 0.7 percent as of June 30, 2021 andMarch 31, 2022, compared to 6.8 percent at December 31, 2020, respectively,2021, reflecting ongoing expected economic recovery as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic generally appears to be subsiding.current geopolitical conditions and increased energy prices. In addition to the baseline, we also utilized a more favorable (Moody's S1, Upside) and less favorable (Moody's S3, Downside) economic forecast scenario, each weighted at 30 percent at both June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020.2021. To the extent we identified credit risk considerations that were not captured by the Moody's Analytics scenarios, we addressed the risk through management's qualitative adjustments to our ACL for performing loans.
Our ACL for loans as a percentage of total loans decreased 213 basis points to 0.780.61 percent at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to 0.990.64 percent at December 31, 2020.2021. The 213 basis points decrease was due primarily to a 162 basis point decrease for our performing loans reserve as a percentage of total loans and a 5 basis point decrease for our nonaccrual individually assessed loans.

nonaccrual individually assessed loans as a percentage of total loans. The decreases were due primarily to repayments and credit upgrades within our nonaccrual loans portfolio. These reductions were partially offset by additional reserves for nonaccrual loans, driven primarily by our Investor Dependent and Private Bank portfolios. For a detailed discussion of changes in the current period's reserve, see "Provision for Credit Losses."
Our ACL for performing loans was $358$401 million at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to $394$387 million at December 31, 2020.2021.

Foreign Exchange Forward, Swaps and Foreign Currency Option Contracts
We enter into foreign exchange forward and swap contracts and foreign currency option contracts with clients involved in foreign activities, either as the purchaser or seller, depending upon the clients’ needs. For each forward, swap or option contract entered into with our clients, we enter into an opposite way forward, swap or option contract with a correspondent bank, which mitigates the risk of fluctuations in currency rates. We also enter into forward contracts with correspondent banks to economically reduce our foreign exchange exposure related to certain foreign currency denominated instruments. Net gains and losses on the revaluation of foreign currency denominated instruments are recorded in the line item “Other” as part of noninterest income, a component of consolidated net income. We have not experienced nonperformance by any of our counterparties and therefore have not incurred any related losses.Further, we anticipate performance by all counterparties.Our net

Capital Resources
We maintain an adequate capital base to support anticipated asset growth, operating needs, and credit and other business risks, and to provide for SVB Financial and the Bank to be in compliance with applicable regulatory capital guidelines, including the joint agency rules implementing the "Basel III" capital rules (the "Capital Rules"). Our primary sources of new capital include retained earnings and proceeds from the sale and issuance of our capital stock or other securities. Under the oversight of the Finance Committee of our Board of Directors, management engages in regular capital planning processes in an effort to optimize the use of the capital available to us and to appropriately plan for our future capital needs. The capital plan considers capital needs for the foreseeable future and allocates capital to both existing and future business activities. Expected future use or activities for which capital may be set aside include balance sheet growth and associated relative increases in market or credit exposure, investment activity, potential product and business expansions, acquisitions and strategic or infrastructure investments. In addition, we conduct capital stress tests as part of our annual capital planning process. The capital stress tests allow us to assess the impact of adverse changes in the economy and interest rates on our capital adequacy position.

OurAs of March 31, 2022, Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios for SVB Financial decreased reflective of increases in risk-weighted assets outpacing increases in regulatory capital. The increase in risk-weighted assets was driven primarily by the shift in our balance sheet growth from cash into our investment securities and loans portfolio. The increase in regulatory capital was driven primarily by net income, partially offset by Tier 1 capital deductions, including deductions from covered funds under the Volcker rule and preferred stock dividends.
The decrease in our Tier 1 leverage ratios increasedfor SVB Financial and the Bank are reflective of the growth in our average assets outpacing our growth in regulatory capital. The increase in regulatory capital for the Bank was driven primarily by net income. The increase in average assets for both SVB Financial and Silicon Valleythe Bank as of June 30, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020. The increase in capital ratios was driven primarily by increasesgrowth in our capital, partially offset by increases in our risk-weightedinvestment securities and average assets. The increase in capital for SVB Financial was driven by the issuance of common and preferred stock and net income. The increase in capital for Silicon Valley Bank was driven by a $3.3 billion downstream capital infusion from our bank holding company during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in average assets was driven by increases in our fixed income investments and loanloans portfolios. All of our reported capital ratios remain above the levels considered to be “well capitalized” under applicable banking regulations.
The tangible common equity, or tangible book value, to tangible assets ratio and the tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets ratios are not required by GAAP or applicable bank regulatory requirements. However, we believe these ratios provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our capital levels. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these ratios in evaluating the adequacy of the Company’s capital levels; however, these financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or preferable to, comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. These ratios are calculated by dividing total SVBFG stockholders' equity, by total period-end assets and risk-weighted assets, after reducing both amounts by acquired intangibles, if any. The manner in which this ratio is calculated varies among companies. Accordingly, our ratio is not necessarily comparable to similar measures of other companies.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, we use financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commercial and standby letters of credit and commitments to invest in venture capital and private equity fund investments. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk. Credit risk is defined as the possibility of sustaining a loss because other parties to the financial instrument fail to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract. For details of our commitments to extend credit, and commercial and standby letters of credit, please refer to Note 1311 — “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Guarantees and Other Commitments” of the “Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)” under Part I, Item 1 of this report.
Commitments to Invest in Venture Capital and Private Equity Funds
Subject to applicable regulatory requirements, including the Volcker Rule, we make commitments to invest in venture capital and private equity funds, which in turn make investments generally in, or in some cases make loans to, privately-held
85

Table of Contents

companies. Commitments to invest in these funds are generally made for a 10-year period from the inception of the fund. Although the limited partnership agreements governing these investments typically do not restrict the general partners from
104

Table of Contents

calling 100% of committed capital in one year, it is customary for these funds to generally call most of the capital commitments over 5 to 7 years; however, in certain cases, the funds may not call 100% of committed capital over the life of the fund. The actual timing of future cash requirements to fund these commitments is generally dependent upon the investment cycle, overall market conditions, and the nature and type of industry in which the privately held companies operate.
For further details on our commitments to invest in venture capital and private equity funds, refer to Note 1311 — “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Guarantees and Other Commitments” of the “Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)” under Part I, Item 1 of this report.
Liquidity
The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that funds are available in a timely manner to meet our financial obligations, including, the availability of funds for both anticipated and unanticipated funding uses as necessary, paying creditors, meeting depositors’ needs, accommodating loan demand and growth, funding investments, repurchasing securities and other operating or capital needs, without incurring undue cost or risk, or causing a disruption to normal operating conditions.
We regularly assess the amount and likelihood of projected funding requirements through a range of business-as-usual and potential stress scenarios based on a review of factors such as historical deposit volatility and funding patterns, present and forecasted market and economic conditions, individual client funding needs and existing and planned business activities. Our ALCO, which is a management committee, provides oversight to the liquidity management process and recommends policy guidelines for the approval of the Finance Committee and Risk Committee of our Board of Directors, and courses of action to address our actual and projected liquidity needs. Additionally, we routinely conduct liquidity stress testing as part of our liquidity management practices.
Historically,Our client deposits havebase is, and historically has been our primary source of liquidity.liquidity funding. Our deposit levels and cost of deposits may fluctuate from time to time due to a variety of factors, including market conditions, prevailing interest rates, changes in client deposit behaviors, availability of insurance protection, and our offering of deposit products. We may also offer more investment alternatives for our off-balance sheet products which may impact deposit levels. At June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our period-end total deposit balances were $145.8$198.1 billion, compared to $102.0$189.2 billion at December 31, 2020.2021.
We maintain a liquidity risk management and monitoring process designed to ensure appropriate liquidity to meet expected and contingent funding needs under both normal and stress environments, subject to the regular supervisory review process. Our liquidity requirements can also be met through the use of our portfolio of liquid assets. Our definition of liquid assets includes cash and cash equivalents in excess of the minimum levels necessary to carry out normal business operations, short-term investment securities maturing within one year, AFS securities eligible and available for financing or pledging purposes with a maturity in excess of one year and anticipated near-term cash flows from investments.
We have certain facilities in place to enable us to access short-term borrowings on a secured and unsecured basis. Our secured facilities include collateral pledged to the FHLB of San Francisco and the discount window at the FRB (using both fixed income securities and loans as collateral). Our unsecured facility consists of our uncommitted federal funds lines. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, collateral pledged to the FHLB of San Francisco was comprised primarily of fixed income investment securities and loans and had a carrying value of $7.1$8.4 billion, of which $5.9$7.0 billion was available to support additional borrowings. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, collateral pledged to the discount window at the FRB was comprised of fixed income investment securities and had a carrying value of $0.9 billion,$515 million, all of which was unused and available to support additional borrowings. Our total unused and available borrowing capacity for our uncommitted federal funds lines totaled $1.9$2.0 billion at June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. Our total unused and available secured borrowing capacity under our master repurchase agreements with various financial institutions totaled $4.0$8.0 billion at June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.
In connection with our participation in the PPP under the CARES Act as discussed, we considered participating in the Federal Reserve’s PPPLF. The PPPLF was established to allow participating institutions to facilitate lending under the PPP and extends credit to eligible PPP loan originators on a non-recourse basis, taking PPP loans as collateral at face value. Ultimately, we were able to extend credit to PPP borrowers without relying on the PPPLF. Additionally, interim final capital rules issued by federal bank regulatory agencies have neutralized the regulatory capital effects of participating in the PPP, in that loans outstanding are assessed a zero percent risk weight for regulatory capital purposes.
As a banking organization, our liquidity is subject to supervision by our banking regulators. Because we are a Category IV firm with less than $250 billion in average total consolidated assets, less than $50 billion in average weighted short-term wholesale funding and less than $75 billion in cross-jurisdictional activity, we currently are not subject to the Federal Reserve’s LCR or net stable funding ratio NSFR requirements, either on a full or reduced basis. It is possible that, as a result of further growth, we may exceed one or more of those thresholds and therefore become subject to LCR and NSFR requirements or other heightened liquidity requirements in the future, as a result of further growth, which would require us to maintain high-quality liquid assets in accordance with specific quantitative requirements and increase the use of long-term debt as a funding source. In addition, if we were to exceed $75
86

Table of Contents

billion in cross-jurisdictional activity, as a Category II firm, we could no longer opt out of excluding AOCI in calculating regulatory capital ratios and would become subject to the advance approaches framework as well as more stringent liquidity reporting requirements.
On a stand-alone basis, SVB Financial’s primary liquidity channels include dividends from the Bank, its portfolio of liquid assets, and its ability to raise debt and capital. The ability of the Bank to pay dividends is subject to certain regulations described in “Business—Supervision and Regulation—Restriction on Dividends” under Part I, Item 1 of our 20202021 Form 10-K.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk Management
Market risk is defined as the risk of adverse fluctuations in the market value of financial instruments due to changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk is our primary market risk and can result from timing and volume differences in the repricing of our rate-sensitive assets and liabilities, widening or tightening of credit spreads, changes in the general level of market interest rates and changes in the shape and level of the benchmark interest rates. Additionally, changes in interest rates can influence the rate of principal prepayments on mortgage securities, which affects the rate of amortization of purchase premiums and discounts. Other market risks include foreign currency exchange risk and equity price risk (including the effect of competition on product pricing). These risks and related impacts are important market considerations but are inherently difficult to assess through simulation results. Consequently, simulations used to analyze the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates will differ from actual results due to differences in the timing and frequency of rate resets, the magnitude of changes in market rates, the impact of competition, fluctuating business conditions and the impact of strategies taken by management to mitigate these risks.
Interest rate risk is managed by our ALCO. ALCO reviews the sensitivity of the market valuation on earning assets and funding liabilities and modeled 12-month projections of net interest income from changes in interest rates, structural changes in investment and funding portfolios, loan and deposit activity and market conditions. Relevant metrics and guidelines, which are approved by the Finance Committee of our Board of Directors and are included in our Interest Rate Risk Policy, are monitored on an ongoing basis.
Interest rate risk is managed primarily through strategies involving our fixed income securities portfolio, available funding channels and capital market activities. In addition, our policies permit the use of off-balance sheet derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, to assist with managing interest rate risk.

We utilize a simulation model to perform sensitivity analysis on the economic value of equity and net interest income under a variety of interest rate scenarios, balance sheet forecasts and business strategies. The simulation model provides a
106

Table of Contents

dynamic assessment of interest rate sensitivity which is embedded within our balance sheet. Rate sensitivity measures the potential variability in economic value and net interest income relating solely to changes in market interest rates over time. We review our interest rate risk position and sensitivity to market interest rates regularly.
Model Simulation and Sensitivity Analysis
A specific application of our simulation model involves measurement of the impact of changes in market interest rates on the EVE. EVE is defined as the market value of assets, less the market value of liabilities. Another application of the simulation model measures the impact of changes in market interest rates on NII assuming a static balance sheet, in both size and composition, as of the period-end reporting date. In the NII simulation, the level of market interest rates and the size and composition of the balance sheet are held constant over the simulation horizon. Simulated cash flows during the scenario horizon are assumed to be replaced as they occur, which maintains the balance sheet at its current size and composition. Yield and spread assumptions on cash and investment balances reflect current market rates and the shape of the yield curve. Yield and spread assumptions on loans reflect recent market impacts on product pricing. Similarly, we make certain deposit balance decay rate assumptions on demand deposits and interest-bearing deposits, which are replenished to hold the level and mix of funding liabilities constant. Changes in market interest rates that affect net interest income are principally short-term interest rates and include the following benchmark indexes: (i) the National Prime Rate, (ii) 1-month and 3-month LIBOR and (iii) the Federal Funds target rate. Changes in these short-term rates impact interest earned on our variable rate loans and balances held as cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, simulated changes in deposit pricing relative to changes in market rates, commonly referred to as deposit beta, generally follow overall changes in short-term interest rates, although actual changes may lag in terms of timing and magnitude.
Both EVE and NII measures rely upon the use of models to simulate cash flow behavior for loans and deposits. These models were developed internally and are based on historical balance and rate observations. Investment portfolio cash flow is based on a combination of third-party prepayment models and internally managed prepayment vectors depending on security type. As part of our ongoing governance structure, each of these models and assumptions are periodically reviewed and recalibrated as needed to ensure that they are representative of our understanding of existing behaviors.
Simulation results presented include an "asymmetric"a beta assumption that is applied in the NII and EVE simulation models for interest-bearing deposits. This reflects management expectations thatabout deposit repricing behavior in a falling rate environment would be different than repricing behavior in a rising rate environment.behavior. This model assumes theapproximately 60 percent beta as an overall through a rate-cycle beta for interest-bearing deposits in a falling rate environment would be approximately 60 percent.deposits. That is, overall changes in interest-bearing deposit rates would be approximately 60 percent of the change in short-term market rates. The deposit beta assumption for an increasing rate environment is 50 percent. These repricing assumptions are reflected as changes in interest expense on interest-bearing deposit balances.

Economic Value of Equity
The estimated EVE in the preceding table is based on a combination of valuation methodologies including a discounted cash flow analysis and a multi-path lattice-based valuation. Both methodologies use publicly available market interest rates to determine discounting factors on projected cash flows. The model simulations and calculations are highly assumption-dependentassumption-

dependent and will change regularly as the composition of earning assets and funding liabilities change (including the impact of changes in the value of interest rate derivatives, if any), as interest rate environments evolve, and as we change our assumptions in response to relevant market conditions, competition or business circumstances. These calculations do not reflect forecast changes in our balance sheet or changes we may make to reduce our EVE exposure as a part of our overall interest rate risk management strategy. As noted above, the underlying models and assumptions are subject to regular performance testing and recalibration, and as such we are reviewing how the underlying assumptions on our deposit model impact deposit decay, curtailment, and pricing behavior. The model changes are expected to be deployed in the second quarter of 2022 and we expect these to change our EVE profile to show reduction in risk in the +100 and +200bps instantaneous parallel shift scenarios and increasing risk in the -100 and -200 bps instantaneous parallel shift scenarios.
As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain limitations are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the preceding table. We are exposed to yield curve risk, prepayment risk, basis risk and yield spread compression, which cannot be fully modeled and expressed using the above methodology. Accordingly, the results in the preceding table should not be relied upon as a precise indicator of actual results in the event of changing market interest rates. Additionally, the resulting EVE and NII estimates are not intended to represent and should not be construed to represent our estimate of the underlying EVE or forecast of NII.
Our base EVE as of June 30, 2021 increased $4.2March 31, 2022 decreased $2.9 billion from December 31, 2020,2021, driven by overall balance sheet growthmix as well as a steepening of the yield curvehigher rates during the first halfquarter of 2021.2022. For the period ended June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to December 31, 2020,2021, cash balances increased by $6.3$6.0 billion, fixed income investments in our AFS portfolio decreased by $7.0$1.2 billion, and increased by $43.4 billion in ourwhile HTM portfolio while loan balances increased by $5.6 billion.$512 million. Loan balances increased by $2.4 billion, year-to-date. Funding for these assets came primarily from growth of $43.9$8.9 billion in total deposits, which consisted of a $34.8$2.1 billion and $9.1$6.8 billion increase in noninterest-bearingnon-interest bearing and interest-bearinginterest bearing accounts, respectively. The mix of noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing depositsnon-interest bearing to total deposits increaseddecreased slightly by 4two bps to 65 percent at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to December 31, 2020.2021.
Rapid deposit growth has exceeded the pace of our loan growth, and as a result, a significant amount of excess deposits not used to fund loan growth have contributed to the growth of our cash and investments balances. Much of the investment portfolio is held in fixed rate MBS and CMO's which generally have a higher market value sensitivity than variable rate loans or cash. Thus, under an upward rate shock scenario, the market value of investments changes more than the market value of deposits resulting in a negative EVE sensitivity in those scenarios.
In March 2021 we purchased interest rate swaps to offset some of the additional EVE sensitivity that has resulted from rapid balance sheet growth. As of June 30, 2021, the estimated change in EVE in an up 100 bps rate shock would be -13.7 percent without any hedging applied. The addition of pay fixed swaps reduces this exposure to -10.9 percent in the same scenario. The EVE exposures shown in the table above include the impact of our hedging activity.
Due to low rates at the short end of the yield curve, EVE sensitivity measures in the -100 and -200 bps rate shock scenarios do not represent the full magnitude of rate shocks at certain points on the curve because we assume that U.S. rates are floored at zero. As a result, the June 30, 2021 EVE sensitivity of the -100 and -200 bps rate shock scenarios are similar.

Ongoing balance sheet growth and a steepening yield curve were the primary contributing factors to the overall change in EVE sensitivity.
12-Month Net Interest Income Simulation
NII sensitivity is measured as the percentage change in projected 12-month net interest income earned in +/-100 and +/-200 basis point interest rate shock scenarios compared to a base scenario where balances and interest rates are held constant over the forecast horizon. At June 30, 2021, NII sensitivity was 16.3 percent in the +100 bps interest rate scenario, compared to 15.1 percent at December 31, 2020. Our NII sensitivity in the +200 bps interest rate shock scenario was 33.7 percent compared to 29.1 percent at December 31, 2020. NII sensitivity in the -100 bps scenario of negative 3.5 percent was higher at June 30, 2021, compared to a negative 2.6 percent at December 31, 2020. The -200 bps scenario currently indicates a higher percentage change in NII of negative 4.1 percent at June 30, 2021, compared to negative 2.8 percent at December 31, 2020. However, as noted above, the -100 and -200 bps scenarios are not complete rate shocks in this rate environment, since rates are assumed to be floored at zero. The June 30, 2021 NII sensitivity percentages are inclusive of the realized income or expense associated with interest rate swaps that were unwound reflective of the macro hedging process initiated in 2019 to reduce the impact of decreasing rates on NII as well as unrealized income associated with more recent hedging activity that has been undertaken to reduce EVE exposure. The changes in NII sensitivity are primarily the result of the changes in balance sheet composition described previously, combined with the impact of hedges in the respective parallel rate shock scenarios.
Our base case static 12-month NII forecast at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 increased compared to December 31, 20202021 by $735$496 million, driven primarily by the growth in the balance sheet that has taken place year-to-date. Specifically, a large portiongrowth and the impact of asset growth has been deployed in the fixed income investment securities portfolio as noted above. As of June 30, 2021, we also held a relatively high cash position which we expecthigher rates compared to be invested in the near future.December 31, 2021.
A majority of our loans are indexed to Prime and LIBOR. In the upward parallel simulated rate shock scenarios, interest income on assets that are tied to variable rate indexes, primarily our variable rate loans, are expected to benefit our base 12-month NII projections. The opposite is true for downward rate shock scenarios.
The 12-month NII simulations include repricing assumptions on our interest-bearing deposit products which we set at our discretion based on client needs and our overall funding mix. Repricing of interest-bearing deposits impacts estimated interest expense.
For the interest rate scenarios, the simulation model incorporates embedded rate floors on loans, where present, which prevents model benchmark rates from moving below zero percent in the down rate scenarios. The embedded rate floors are also a factor in the up-rate scenarios to the extent a simulated increase in rates is needed before floored rates are cleared. In addition, we assume deposit balance decay rates based on a historical deposit study of our clients. These assumptions may change in future periods based on changes in client behavior and at management's discretion. Actual changes in our deposit pricing strategies may differ from our current model assumptions and may have an impact on our actual sensitivity overall.
