Nature of Operations and Summary of Significanrt Accounting Policies
Nature Of Operations	NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Nature of Operations OFG Bancorp (t he “ Company ”) is a publicly-owned financial holding company incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. The Company operates through various subsidiaries including, a commercial bank, Oriental Bank ( the “Bank”) , a securities broker-dealer , Oriental Financial Services Corp. (“Oriental Fi nancial Services”), an insurance agency , Oriental Insuranc e, Inc. (“Oriental Insurance”) and a reti rement plan administrator, Oriental Pension Consultants, Inc. (“OPC”), formerly known as Caribbean Pension Consultants, Inc. Through these subsidiaries and their respective divisions, the Company provides a wide range of banking and financial services such as commercial, consume r and mortgage lending, auto loans, financial planning, insurance sales, money management and investment banking and brokerage services, as well as corporate and individual trust services. On April 30, 2010, the Bank acquired certain assets and assumed certain deposits and other liabilities of Eurobank , a Puerto Rico commercial bank, in an FDIC-assisted acquisition . On December 18, 2012, the Company acquired a group of Puerto Rico- based entities that included Banco Bil bao Vizcaya Argentaria Puerto Rico (“BBVAPR”), a Puerto Rico commercial bank, as well as a securities broker-dealer and an insurance agency, which is referred to herein as the “BBVAPR Acquisition . ” The businesses acquired in these acquisitions have been in tegrated with the C ompany’s existing business.
Significant Accounting Policies	Recent Accounting Developments In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires that all costs incurred to issue debt be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability rather than as an asset. The standard does not affect the recognit ion and measurement of debt issuance costs; therefore, the amortization of such costs shall continue to be reported as interest expense. ASU 2015-03 will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permissible for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis to all prior periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 to have a mat erial impact on its consolidated financial statements. Other than the accounting pronouncement disclosed above, there were no other new accounting pronouncement s issued during the third quarter of 2015 that could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, operating results or financials statement disclosures.

During the nine-month period ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 , the Company sold $63.5 million and $ 74.1 million , respectively, of availabl e-for-sale Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) certificates that were sold as part of its recurring mortgage loan origination and securitization activities. These sales did not realize any gains or losses during such period s . During the quart er ended September 30, 2015, the Company retained securitized GN MA pools totaling $ 27.8 million, amortized cost, at a yield of 3.06 % from its own originations . Previously, the Company was selling all securitized GNMA pools . For the nine-month periods periods ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 , the Company recorded a net gain on sale of securities of $2.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively.

Moreover, the Company conducts quarterly reviews to identify and evaluate each investment in an unrealized loss position for other-than-temporary impairment. Any portion of a decline in value associated with credit loss is recognized in the statements of operations with the remaining noncredit-related component recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). A credit loss is determined by assessing whether the amortized cost b asis of the security will be recovered by comparing the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security, discounted at the rate equal to the yield used to accrete current and prospective beneficial interest for the security. The shor tfall of the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected in relation to the amortized cost basis is considered to be the “credit loss.” Other-than-temporary impairment analysis is based on estimates that depend on market conditions and are sub ject to further change over time. In addition, while the Company believes that the methodology used to value these exposures is reasonable, the methodology is subject to continuing refinement, including those made as a result of market developments. Conseq uently, it is reasonably possible that changes in estimates or conditions could result in the need to recognize additional other-than-temporary impairment charges in the future. Most of the investments ($ 501.1 million, amortized cost, or 96 %) with an unr ealized loss position at September 30 , 2015 consist of securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury or U.S. government-sponsored agencies, all of which are highly liquid securities that have a large and efficient secondary market. Their aggregate l osses and their variability from period to period are the result of changes in market conditions, and not due to the repayment capacity or creditworthiness of the issuers or guarantors of such securities. The remaining investments ($ 19.0 million, amortize d cost, or 4 %) with an unrealized loss position at September 30 , 2015 consist of obligations issued or guaranteed by the government of Puerto Rico and its political subdivisions or instrumentalities. The decline in the market value of these securities is m ainly attributed to an increase in volatility as a result of changes in market conditions that reflect the significant economic and fiscal challenges that Puerto Rico is facing, including a protracted economic recession, sizable government debt-service obl igations and structural budget deficits, high unemployment and a shrinking population. Moreover, the negative rating decisions taken by the credit rating agencies have affected the market value and liquidity of these securities. As of September 30 , 2015 , the Company applied a discounted cash flow analysis to the Puerto Rico government bonds to calculate the cash flows expected to be collected and determine if any portion of the decline in market value of these investments was considered an other -than-temp orary impairment. The analysis derives an estimate of value based on the present value of risk-adjusted future cash flows of the underlying investments, and included the following components: The contractual future cash flows of the bonds are projected ba sed on the key terms as set forth in the official statements for each investment. Such key terms include among others the interest rate, amortization schedule, if any, and maturity date. The risk-adjusted cash flows are calculated based on a monthly defaul t probability and recovery rate assumptions based on the credit rating of each investment. Constant monthly default rates are assumed throughout the life of the bonds which are based on the respective security’s credit rating as of the date of the analysis . The adjusted future cash flows are then discounted at the original effective yield of each investment based on the purchase price and expected risk-adjusted future cash flows as of the purchase date of each investment. For certain obligations totaling $ 17.7 million , amortized cost, or 93 % of the obligations issued or guaranteed by the government of Puerto Rico and its political subdivisions or instrumentalities, the discounted cash flow analysis for the investments showed a cumulative default probability at maturity in the range of 6.4 % to 47 %, thus reflecting that it is more likely than not that the bonds will not default at all during their remaining terms (range between 53 % and 93 .6 %). Based on this analysis, the Company determined that it is more like ly than not that it will recover all interest and principal invested in these Puerto Rico government bonds and is therefore not required to recognize a credit loss as of September 30 , 2015 . Also, the Bank’s conclusion is based on the assessment of the spe cific source of repayment of each outstanding bond, and the bonds continue to perform. No principal is due on the bonds until July 1 st , 2017, except for PRHTA that started the principal repayments on July 1 st 2014 and was paid as scheduled. All scheduled interest payments are being collected from different issuers. For one obligation amounting to $ 1.2 million, amortized cost , or 7 % of the Puerto Rico government debt securities, the discounted cash flow analy sis showed a cumulative default of 47 % using a recovery rate of 65 %. T aking into consideration that the bond is guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the recent downgrades of the general obligation debts after the government announced it needs to restructure its debt , the Company concluded that it is more likely than not that this bond will default during its remaini ng term until maturity in 2028. Based on the above, during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 an ot her -than-temporary impairment was recorded in earnings for the amount of $246 thousand, which represent s the estimated loss resulting from the discounted cash flow analysis. The non-credit related portion of the unrealized losses amounting to $338 thousand was recog nized in other comprehensive income, net of related taxes. Prospectively, for debt securities for which other-than-temporary impairments was recognized in earnings, the difference between the new amortized cost basis and the cash flows expected to be collected will be accreted as interest income. If upon subsequent evaluation, there is a significant increase in the cash flows expected to be co llected or if actual cash flows are significantly greater than cash flows previously expected, such changes will be accounted for as a prospective adjustment to the accretable yield. Subsequent increases and decreases (if not other-than-temporary impairmen t) in the fair value of available-for-sale securities will be included in other comprehensive income. Further negative evidence impacting the liquidity and sources of repayment of the obligations of Puerto Rico and its political subdivisions, could result in a further charge to earnings to recognize estimated credit losses determined to be other-than-temporary. At September 30, 2015, t he Company has cash flow capacity, sufficient liquidity and a strong capital position to maintain the bonds and does not need to sell them in a loss position and it is not likely that the Company will have to sell the investment securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis . The following table presents a rollforward of credit-related impairment losses recognized in earnings for the quarter and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 on available-for-sale securities that the Company does no t have the intent to sell or will not more-likely-than-not be required to sell: Quarter Ended September 30, Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 (In thousands) Balance at beginning of period $ - $ - $ - $ - Additions from credit losses recognized on available-for-sale securities that had no previous impairment losses 246 - 246 - Balance at end of period $ 246 $ - $ 246 $ -

Loans Receivable [Abstract]
LOANS RECEIVABLE	NOTE 4 - LOANS The Company’s loan portfolio is composed of two segments, loans initially accounted for under the amortized cost method (referred as "originated and other" loans) and loans acquired (referred as "acquired" loans). Acquired loans are further segregated between acquired BBVAPR loans and acquired Eurobank loans. Acquired Eurobank loans were purchased subject to loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC. The FDIC loss sharing agreement, related to commercial and other-non single f amily acquired Eurobank loans expired on June 30 , 2015 . Notwithstanding the expiration of loss share coverage of non-single family loans, on July 2, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with the FDIC pursuant to which the FDIC concurred with a poten tial sale of a pool of loss share assets covered under the non-single family loss share agreement. Pursuant to such agreement, the FDIC agreed to pay up to $20 million in loss share coverage with respect to the aggregate loss resulting from any portfolio s ale within 120 days of the agreement. This sale was completed on September 28, 2015 and a $20 million receivable from the FDIC was included in other assets in the unaudited statement of financial condition related to this reimbursement . The coverage for th e single family residential loans will expire on June 30, 2020 . At September 30, 2015, the r emaining covered loans amounting to $ 60.1 million, net carrying amount, are included as part of acquired Eurobank loans under the name "loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties". At December 31 , 2014, covered loans amounted to $ 298.9 million, net carrying amount. Covered loans are no longer a material amount. Therefore, the Company changed its current and prior year loan disclosures d uring the quarter end ed September 30, 2015 . The composition of the Company’s loan portfolio at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 was as follows : September 30, December 31, 2015 2014 (In thousands) Originated and other loans and leases held for investment: Mortgage $ 762,636 $ 791,751 Commercial 1,389,353 1,289,732 Consumer 227,756 186,760 Auto and leasing 647,544 575,582 3,027,289 2,843,825 Allowance for loan and lease losses on originated and other loans and leases (80,351) (51,439) 2,946,938 2,792,386 Deferred loan costs, net 4,571 4,282 Total originated and other loans loans held for investment, net 2,951,509 2,796,668 Acquired loans: Acquired BBVAPR loans: Accounted for under ASC 310-20 (Loans with revolving feature and/or acquired at a premium) Commercial 7,736 12,675 Consumer 39,774 45,344 Auto 124,120 184,782 171,630 242,801 Allowance for loan and lease losses on acquired BBVAPR loans accounted for under ASC 310-20 (5,473) (4,597) 166,157 238,204 Accounted for under ASC 310-30 (Loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality, including those by analogy) Mortgage 617,268 656,122 Commercial 395,637 452,201 Construction - 106,361 Consumer 15,072 29,888 Auto 173,979 247,233 1,201,956 1,491,805 Allowance for loan and lease losses on acquired BBVAPR loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 (19,986) (13,481) 1,181,970 1,478,324 Total acquired BBVAPR loans, net 1,348,127 1,716,528 Acquired Eurobank loans: Loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties 92,757 102,162 Commercial 144,704 256,488 Consumer 2,708 4,506 Total acquired Eurobank loans 240,169 363,156 Allowance for loan and lease losses on Eurobank loans (90,332) (64,245) Total acquired Eurobank loans, net 149,837 298,911 Total acquired loans, net 1,497,964 2,015,439 Total held for investment, net 4,449,473 4,812,107 Mortgage loans held for sale 19,203 14,539 Total loans, net $ 4,468,676 $ 4,826,646 On September 28, 2015, the Company sold a portion of covered non-performing commercial loans amounting to $ 197.1 million unpaid principal balance or UPB ($ 100.0 million carrying amount). The sales price was 18.44% of UPB, or $ 36.3 million. The FDIC agreed to cover $20.0 million of losses as part of its loss-share agreement with the Company. As a result, a $20.0 million reimbursement was recorded in the statement of operations. The Company also recorded a $ 32.9 million provision for loan and lease losses fo r acquired Eurobank loans, which was partially offset by $ 4.6 million in cost recoveries. Also, as part of this transaction, the Company sold certain non-performing commercial loans and real estate owned from the BBVAPR acquisition amounting to $ 38.1 milli on unpaid principal balance ($ 9.9 million carrying amount). The sales price was $ 5.2 million. As a result, a $ 5.2 million provision for loan and lease losses was recorded for BBVAPR acquired loans, which was partially offset by $ 2.4 million in cost recover ies. In addition, certain additional real estate owned with a carrying amount of $ 11.0 million was sold for $ 1.7 million. At September 30 , 2015, the Company had a $13.0 million receivable related to this sale and a $20.0 million receivable from the FDIC reimbursement O riginated and Other Loans and L eases Held for Investment The Company ’s originated and other loans held for investment are encompassed within four portfolio segments: mortgage, commercial, consumer , and auto and leasing. The following table s present the aging of the recorded investment in gross originated and other loans held for investment as of September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 by class of loans . Mortgage loans past due included delinquent loans in the GNMA buy-back option program. Servicers of loans underlying GNMA mortgage-backed securities must report as their own assets the defaulted loans that they have the option (but not the obligation) to r epurchase, even when they elect not to exercise that option .

A t September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the Company had $ 3 38.3 million and $ 450.2 million, respectively, in loans granted to the Puerto Rico g overnment, including its instrumentalities , public corporations and municipalities as part of the institutional commercial loan segment. All loans granted to Puerto Rico government were current at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 . We, as part of a bank syndicate, have granted various extensions to the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (“PREPA”) and on November 5, 2015 entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement with a view towards restructuring the debt on terms that provide for full repayment of the debt to the Bank . After the first extension in the third quarter of 2014, the Company classified the credit as substandard and a troubled-debt restructuring. The Company conducted an impairment analysis considering the probability of collection of principal and interest, which included a financial model to project the future liquidity status of PREPA under vari ous scenarios and its capacity to service its financial obl igations, and concluded that PREPA had sufficient cash flows for the repayment of the line of credit. Despite the Company’s analysis showing PREPA’s capacity to repay the line of credit, the Co mpany placed its participation in non-accrual and recorded a $ 24 million provision during the first quarter of 2015, based on management’s concerns regarding PREPA’s willingness to repay the debt. At September 30, 2015, the allowance for loan and lease los ses to PREPA was $ 23.4 million. Since it was placed in non-accrual, interest payments have been applied to principal. Acquired Loans Acquired loans were initially measured at fair value and subsequently accounted for under either Accounting Standards Codification Topic ("ASC") 310-30 (Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality) or ASC 310-20 (Non-refundable fees and Other Costs). We have acquired loans in two acquisitions, BBVAPR and Eurobank . Acqui red BBVAPR Loans Accounted for under ASC 310-20 (Loans with revolving feature and/or acquired at a premium) Credit cards, retail and commercial revolving lines of credits, floor plans and performing auto loans with FICO scores over 660 acquired at a premium , excluding the acquired Eurobank loan portfolio, are accounted for under the guidance of ASC 310-20, which requires that any contractually required loan payment receivable in excess of the Company’s initial investment in the loans be accreted into interest income on a level-yield basis over the life of the loan. Loans accounted for under ASC 310-20 are placed on non-accrual status when past due in accordance with the Company’s non-accrual policy, and any accretion of discount or amortization of prem ium is discontinued. Acquired BBVAPR loans that were accounted for under the provisions of ASC 310-20 are removed from the acquired loan category at the end of the reporting period upon refinancing, renewal or normal re-underwriting. The following table s present the aging of the recorded investment in gross acquired BBVAPR loans accounted for under ASC 310-20 as of September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , by class of loans : September 30, 2015 Loans 90+ Days Past Current Due and 30-59 Days 60-89 Days 90+ Days Total Past in Non- Current Still Past Due Past Due Past Due Due Accrual Accruing Total Loans Accruing (In thousands) Commercial Commercial secured by real estate Retail $ - $ - $ 279 $ 279 $ 47 $ - $ 326 $ - Floor plan - - 478 478 - 2,470 2,948 - - - 757 757 47 2,470 3,274 - Other commercial and industrial Retail 228 24 61 313 - 3,475 3,788 - Floor plan - 10 7 17 1 656 674 - 228 34 68 330 1 4,131 4,462 - 228 34 825 1,087 48 6,601 7,736 - Consumer Credit cards 825 422 769 2,016 - 34,510 36,526 - Personal loans 89 14 41 144 - 3,104 3,248 - 914 436 810 2,160 - 37,614 39,774 - Auto 9,010 2,921 1,040 12,971 49 111,100 124,120 - Total $ 10,152 $ 3,391 $ 2,675 $ 16,218 $ 97 $ 155,315 $ 171,630 $ - December 31, 2014 Loans 90+ Days Past Current Due and 30-59 Days 60-89 Days 90+ Days Total Past in Non- Current Still Past Due Past Due Past Due Due Accrual Accruing Total Loans Accruing (In thousands) Commercial Commercial secured by real estate Retail $ - $ - $ 351 $ 351 $ - $ - $ 351 $ - Floor plan - 62 345 407 - 3,724 4,131 - - 62 696 758 - 3,724 4,482 - Other commercial and industrial Retail 155 67 192 414 2 3,705 4,121 - Floor plan 202 134 223 559 10 3,503 4,072 - 357 201 415 973 12 7,208 8,193 - 357 263 1,111 1,731 12 10,932 12,675 - Consumer Credit cards 1,376 654 1,399 3,429 - 38,419 41,848 - Personal loans 151 47 77 275 - 3,221 3,496 - 1,527 701 1,476 3,704 - 41,640 45,344 - Auto 11,003 3,453 1,262 15,718 76 168,988 184,782 - Total $ 12,887 $ 4,417 $ 3,849 $ 21,153 $ 88 $ 221,560 $ 242,801 $ - Acquired BBVAPR Loans Accounted for under ASC 310-30 (including those accounted for under ASC 310-30 by analogy) Acquired BBVAPR loans , except for credit cards, retail and commercial revolving lines of credits, floor plans and performing auto loans with FICO scores over 660 acquired at a premium, are accounted for by the Company in accordance with ASC 310-30.

Allowance For Credit Losses Text Block	NOTE 5 – ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES The composition of the Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 was as follows : September 30, December 31, 2015 2014 (In thousands) Allowance for loans and lease losses on non-acquired loans: Originated and other loans and leases held for investment: Mortgage $ 17,292 $ 19,679 Commercial 35,524 8,432 Consumer 10,816 9,072 Auto and leasing 16,674 14,255 Unallocated 45 1 Total allowance for originated and other loans and lease losses 80,351 51,439 Acquired loans: Acquired BBVAPR loans: Accounted for under ASC 310-20 (Loans with revolving feature and/or acquired at a premium) Commercial 22 65 Consumer 3,057 1,211 Auto 2,394 3,321 5,473 4,597 Accounted for under ASC 310-30 (Loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality, including those by analogy) Mortgage 473 - Commercial 16,567 13,476 Consumer 84 5 Auto 2,862 - 19,986 13,481 Total allowance for acquired BBVAPR loans and lease losses 105,810 69,517 Acquired Eurobank loans: Loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties 32,685 15,522 Commercial and other construction 57,280 48,334 Consumer 367 389 Total allowance for acquired Eurobank loan and lease losses 90,332 64,245 Total allowance for loan and lease losses $ 196,142 $ 133,762 The Company maintains an allowance for loan and lease losses at a level that management considers adequate to provide for probable losses based upon an evaluation of known and inherent risks. The Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses policy provides for a detailed quarterly analysis of probable losses. The analysis includes a review of historical loan loss experience, value of underlying collateral, current economic conditions, financial condition of borrowers and other pertinent factors. Whi le management uses available information in estimating probable loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be required based on factors beyond the Company’s control. We also maintain an allowance for loan losses on acquired loans when: ( i ) for loan s accounted for under ASC 310-30, there is deterioration in credit quality subsequent to acquisition, and (ii) for loans accounted for under ASC 310-20, the inherent losses in the loans exceed the remaining credit discount recorded at the time of acquisiti on. As part of the Company’s continuous enhancement to the allowance for loan and lease losses methodology, during the quarter ended June 30 , 2015 an assessment of the look-back period and historical loss factor was performed for auto and leasing and cons umer and commercial loan portfolios. The analysis was based on the trends observed and their relation with the economic cycle as of the period ended June 30, 2015 . As a result, for the commercial portfolio, the look-back period was changed to 36 months f rom the previously determined 12 months. For auto and leasing and consumer, a look back period of 24 months was maintained. In addition, during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 , an assessment of environmental factors was performed for commercial, auto, an d consumer portfolios. As a result, the environmental factors continue to reflect our assessment of the impact to our portfolio, taking into consideration the current evolution of the portfolio and expected impact, due to recent economic developments, chan ges in values of collateral and delinquencies, among others. These changes in the allowance for loan and lease losses’ look-back period and the result of the assessment in economic factors for the commercial, auto, and consumer portfolios are considered a change in accounting estimate as per ASC 250-10 provisions, where adjustments should be made prospectively . No changes were made during the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

FDIC Indemnification Asset and True-up Payment Obligation [Text Block]	NOTE 6 - FDIC INDEMNIFICATION ASSET AND TRUE-UP PAYMENT OBLIGATION In connection with the FDIC assisted acquisition , the Bank and the FDIC entered into shared-loss agreements pursuant to which the FDIC covers a substantial portion of any losses on loans (and related unfunded loan commitments), foreclosed real estate and other repossessed properties covered by the agreements. The acquired loans, foreclosed real estate, and other repossessed properties subject to the shared-loss agreements are collectively referred to as “covered assets.” Under the terms of the shared-loss agreements, the FDIC absorbs 80 % of losses and shares in 80 % of loss recoveries on covered assets. The term of the shared-loss agreement covering single family residential mortgage loans is ten years with respect to losses and loss recoveries, while the term of the shared-loss agreement covering commercial loans is five years with respect to losses and eight years with respect to loss recoveries, from the April 30, 2010 acquisition date. T he shared-loss agreements also provide for certain costs directly related to the collection and preservation of covered assets to be reimbursed at an 80% level. The FDIC indemnification asset represents the portion of estimated losses covered by the shared -loss agreements between the Bank and the FDIC . The following table presents the activity in the FDIC indemnification asset and true-up payment obligation for the quarters and nine-month periods ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 : Quarter Ended September 30, Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 (In thousands) FDIC indemnification asset: Balance at beginning of period $ 22,704 $ 143,660 $ 97,378 $ 189,240 Shared-loss agreements reimbursements from the FDIC - (12,837) (17,171) (31,537) Shared-loss agreements reimbursements expected from the FDIC - - (20,917) - Increase (decrease) in expected credit losses to be covered under shared-loss agreements, net - 1,597 2,503 5,159 FDIC indemnification asset expense (1,215) (16,059) (35,948) (51,180) Incurred expenses to be reimbursed under shared-loss agreements 1,406 4,258 (2,950) 8,937 Balance at end of period $ 22,895 $ 120,619 $ 22,895 $ 120,619 True-up payment obligation: Balance at beginning of period $ 23,577 $ 20,231 $ 21,981 $ 18,510 Change in true-up payment obligation 864 875 2,460 2,596 Balance at end of period $ 24,441 $ 21,106 $ 24,441 $ 21,106 The FDIC shared- loss expense bears an inverse relationship with a change in the yield of covered loan pools in accordance with ASC 310-30. ASC 310-30 dictates that such pools should be subject to increases in their yield when the present value of the expected cash flows is higher than the pool’s carrying balance. When the increases in cash flow expectatio ns are driven by reductions in the expected credit losses, the Bank recognizes that such losses are no longer expected to be collected from the FDIC. Accordingly, the Bank reduces the FDIC indemnification asset by amortizing the reduction in expected colle ctions throughout the remaining life of the underlying pools. This amortization is recognized in the FDIC shared-loss expense. The underlying factors that caused an increase in the expected cash flows and resulting reduction in projected losses are deriv ed from the pool-level cash flow forecasts. Credit loss assumptions used to develop each pool-level cash flow forecast are based on the behavior of defaults, recoveries and losses of the corresponding pool of covered loans. The FDIC loss share coverage for the commercial loans and other non-single family loans was in effect until June 30, 2015. The coverage for the single family residential loans will expire on June 30, 2020. Accordingly, the Company amortized the remaining portion of the FDIC indemnific ation asset attributable to non-single family loans at the close of the second quarter of 2015. At September 30, 2015, the Company had a $ 25 million receivable from the FDIC, included in other assets in the unaudited statements of financial condition, corr esponding to the loss-share certifications for commercial and other non-single family loans for the second quarter of 2015 . At September 30, 2015, the FDIC indemnification asset reflects only the balance for single family residential mortgage loans. Notwithstanding t he expiration of loss share coverage of non-single family loans, on July 2, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with the FDIC pursuant to which the FDIC concurred with a potential sale of a pool of loss share assets covered under the non-single fam ily loss share agreement. Pursuant to such agreement, the FDIC agreed to pay up to $20 million in loss share coverage with respect to the aggregate loss resulting from any portfolio sale within 120 days of the agreement. This sale was completed on Septembe r 28, 2015 and a $20 million receivable from the FDIC was included in other assets in the unaudited statements of financial condition related to this reimbursement. The FDIC indemnification asset expense of $ 1.2 million and $35.9 million for the quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, respectively, decreased when compared to $ 16.1 million and $51.2 million for the same periods in 2014 . The decrease during the quarter and nine-month period was principally driven by the expiration of the FD IC loss share coverage for commercial loans and other non-single family loans. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the amortization expense totaled $ 2.3 million and $ 594 thousand , respectively, primarily as a result of stepped up cost recoveries o n certain construction, commercial, and leasing pools. Also in connection with the FDIC assisted acquisition, the Bank agreed to make a true-up payment, also known as a clawback liability or clawback provision, to the FDIC on the date that is 45 days foll owing the last day (such day, the “True-Up Measurement Date”) of the final shared-loss month, or upon the final disposition of all covered assets under the shared-loss agreements in the event losses thereunder fail to reach expected levels. Under the share d-loss agreements, the Bank will pay to the FDIC 50% of the excess, if any, of: ( i ) 20% of the Intrinsic Loss Estimate of $906.0 million (or $181.2 million) (as determined by the FDIC) less (ii) the sum of: (A) 25% of the asset premium (discount) of ($227. 5 million) (or ($56.9 million)); plus (B) 25% of the cumulative shared-loss payments (defined as the aggregate of all of the payments made or payable to the Bank minus the aggregate of all of the payments made or payable to the FDIC); plus (C) the sum of t he period servicing amounts for every consecutive twelve-month period prior to and ending on the True-Up Measurement Date in respect of each of the shared-loss agreements during which the shared-loss provisions of the applicable shared-loss agreement is in effect (defined as the product of the simple average of the principal amount of shared-loss loans and shared-loss assets at the beginning and end of such period times 1%). The true-up payment represents an estimated liability of $ 24.4 million and $ 2 2.0 mi llion , net of discount, as of September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , respectively. The estimated liability is included within accrued expenses and other liabilities in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition. The true-up payment obligation, also known as clawback liability, may increase if actual and expected losses decline. The Company measures the true-up payment obligation at fair value. During the quarters and nine-month period s ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 the fair value of the true-up payment obligation increased by $864 thousand and $2.5 million and $875 thousand and $2.6 million, respectively . These changes in fair value are included as change in true-up payment obligation within FDIC shared-loss expense, net, in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. The following table provides the fair value and the undiscounted amount of the true-up payment obligation at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 : September 30, December 31, 2015 2014 (In thousands) Carrying amount (fair value) $ 24,441 $ 21,981 Undiscounted amount $ 33,385 $ 40,266

Servicing Assets

TransfersAndServicingAbstract
TransfersAndServicingOfFinancialAssetsTextBlock	NOTE 7 - SERVICING ASSETS The Company periodically sells or securitizes mortgage loans while retaining the obligation to perform the servicing of such loans. In addition, the Company may purchase or assume the right to service mortgage loans originated by others. Whenever the Company undertakes an obligation to service a loan, management assesses whether a servicing asset and/or liability should be recognized. A servicing asset is rec ognized whenever the compensation for servicing is expected to more than adequately compensate the Company for servicing the loans and leases. Likewise, a servicing liability would be recognized in the event that servicing fees to be received are not expec ted to adequately compensate the Company for its expected cost. All separately recognized servicing assets are recognized at fair value using the fair value measurement method. Under the fair value measurement method, the Company measures servicing rights at fair value at each reporting date, reports changes in fair value of servicing assets in earnings in the period in which the changes occur, and includes these changes, if any, with mortgage banking activities in the consolidated statements of operations . The fair value of servicing rights is subject to fluctuations as a result of changes in estimated and actual prepayment speeds and default rates and losses. The fair value of servicing rights is estimated by using a cash flow valuation model which calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows, taking into consideration actual and expected loan prepayment rates, discount rates, servicing costs, and other economic factors, which are determined based on current market condit ions. At September 30 , 2015 , the servicing asset amounted to $6.5 million ($14 .0 million — December 31 , 2014 ) related to mortgage servicing rights. During the second quarter of 2015, the Company completed the sale of certain servicing assets for approximately $7.0 million. The Company recognized a loss of $ 2.7 million related to this transaction, which is included as other non-interest (loss) income in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations . The following table presents the changes in servicing rights measured using the fair value method for the quarters and nine-month periods ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 : Quarter Ended September 30, Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 (In thousands) (In thousands) Fair value at beginning of year $ 5,791 $ 13,970 $ 13,992 $ 13,801 Sale of mortgage servicing rights - - (6,985) - Servicing from mortgage securitizations or asset transfers 748 554 2,808 1,608 Changes due to payments on loans (242) (427) (974) (799) Changes in fair value related to price of MSR's held for sale - - (2,716) - Changes in fair value due to changes in valuation model inputs or assumptions 166 (111) 338 (624) Fair value at end of year $ 6,463 $ 13,986 $ 6,463 $ 13,986 The following table presents key economic assumption ranges used in measuring the mortgage- related servicing asset fair value for nine-month periods ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 : Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2015 2014 Constant prepayment rate 5.49% - 10.58% 5.60% - 10.08% Discount rate 10.00% - 12.00% 10.00% - 12.00% The sensitivity of the current fair value of servicing assets to immediate 10 percent and 20 percent adverse changes in the above key assumptions were as follow s : September 30, 2015 (In thousands) Mortgage-related servicing asset Carrying value of mortgage servicing asset $ 6,463 Constant prepayment rate Decrease in fair value due to 10% adverse change $ (183) Decrease in fair value due to 20% adverse change $ (356) Discount rate Decrease in fair value due to 10% adverse change $ (256) Decrease in fair value due to 20% adverse change $ (493) These sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. As the figures indicate, changes in fair value based on a 10 percent variation in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in this table, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the retained interest is calculated without changing any other assumption. C hanges in one factor may result in chang es in another (for example, increases in market interest rates may result in lower prepayments), which may magnify or offset the sensitivities. Mortgage banking activities, a component of total banking and financial service revenue in the consolidated stat ements of operations, include the changes from period to period in the fair value of the mortgage loan servicing rights, which may result from changes in the valuation model inputs or assumptions (principally reflecting changes in discount rates and prepay ment speed assumptions) and other changes, including changes due to collection/realization of expected cash flows. Servicing fee income is based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and is recorded as income when earned. Servic ing fees on mortgage loans for the quarter and nine-month period ended September 30 , 2015 totaled $ 374 thousand and $ 705 thousand, respectively. Servicing fees on mortgage loans for the quarter and nine-month period ended September 30 , 2014 totaled $ 190 thousand and $ 341 thousand, respectively

T he interest rate swap s effectively fix the Company ’s interest payments on an amount of forecasted interest expense attributable to the variable index rate corresponding to the swap notional stated rate. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges for the forecasted wholesale borrowing transactions, are properly documented as such, and therefore, qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. Any gain or loss associated w ith the effective portion of the cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into operations in the period during which the hedged forecasted transactions affect earnings. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recorded in accu mulated other comprehensive income to the extent there is no significant ineffectiveness in the cash flow hedging relationships. Currently, the Company does not expect to reclassify any amount included in other comprehensive income (loss) related to these interes t rate swaps to operations in the next twelve months. The following table shows a summary of these swaps and their terms at September 30 , 2015 : Notional Fixed Variable Trade Settlement Maturity Type Amount Rate Rate Index Date Date Date (In thousands) Interest Rate Swaps $ 25,000 2.4400% 1-Month LIBOR 05/05/11 05/04/12 05/04/16 25,000 2.6200% 1-Month LIBOR 05/05/11 07/24/12 07/24/16 25,000 2.6400% 1-Month LIBOR 05/05/11 07/30/12 07/30/16 50,000 2.6600% 1-Month LIBOR 05/05/11 08/10/12 08/10/16 100,000 2.6800% 1-Month LIBOR 05/05/11 08/16/12 08/16/16 38,322 2.4200% 1-Month LIBOR 07/03/13 07/03/13 08/01/23 $ 263,322 An accumulated unrealized loss of $ 6.4 million and $ 8.6 million was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to the valuation of these swaps at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , respectively , and the related l iability is being reflected in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition. For September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , interest rate swaps not designated as hedging instruments that were offered to clients represented an asset of $2.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively , and were included as part of derivative assets in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial position . The credit risk to these clients stemming from these derivatives, if any, is not material. At September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , interest rate swaps not designated as hedging instruments that are the mirror-images of the derivatives offered to clients represented a liability of $ 2.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively , and were included as part of derivative liabilities in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial conditio n. T he following table shows a summary of these interest rate swaps not designated as hedging instruments and their terms at September 30 , 2015 : Notional Fixed Variable Settlement Maturity Type Amount Rate Rate Index Date Date (In thousands) Interest Rate Swaps - Derivatives Offered to Clients $ 3,819 5.1300% 1-Month LIBOR 07/03/06 07/03/16 12,500 5.5100% 1-Month LIBOR 04/11/09 04/11/19 $ 16,319 Interest Rate Swaps - Mirror Image Derivatives $ 3,819 5.1300% 1-Month LIBOR 07/03/06 07/03/16 12,500 5.5100% 1-Month LIBOR 04/11/09 04/11/19 $ 16,319 Options T ied to Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock Market Index The Company has offered its customers certificates of deposit with an option tied to the performance of the S &P 500 Index. The Company uses option agreements with major broker-dealers to manage its exposure to changes in this index. Under the terms of the option agreements, the Company receives the average increase in the month-end value of the index in exchange for a fixed pre m ium. The changes in fair value of the option agreements used to manag e the exposure in the stock market in the certificates of deposit are recorded in earnings. At September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the purchased options used to manage exposure to the S&P 500 Index on stock indexed deposits represented an asset of $ 1 .1 million (notional amount of $ 3.4 million) and $5.6 million (notional amount of $ 10.7 million), respectively, and the options sold to customers embedded in the certificates of deposit and recorded as deposits in the unaudited consolidated statements of f inancial condition, represented a liability of $ 1 .0 million (notional amount of $ 3.2 million) and $ 5.5 million (notional amount of $ 10.5 million), respectively. Interest Rate C aps The Company has entered into interest rate cap transactions with various clients with floating-rate debt who wish to protect their financial results against increases in interest rates. In these cases, the Company simultaneously enters into mirror-image interest rate cap transactions with financial counterparties. None of these cap transactions qualify for hedge accounting, and therefore, they are marked to market through earnings. For both September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , t he outstanding total notional amount of interest rate caps was $ 1 09.9 million. At September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the interest rate caps sold to clients represented a liability of $36 thousand and $152 thousand, respectively, and were included as pa rt of derivative liabilities in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition. At September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the interest rate caps purchased as mirror-images represented an asset of $36 thousand and $152 thousand, respectivel y, and were included as part of derivative assets in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition.

Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Taxes	NOTE 14 — INCOME TAXES On May 29, 2015 the Governor signed Act No. 72 of 2015. The main purpose of this Act is to increase government collections in order to alleviate the structural deficit. The most relevant provisions of the Act, as applicable to the Company, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2014, are as follows: (1) establishes a new definition of “large taxpayers,” which require them to file its tax return following a special procedure established by the Secretary of the Treasury, ( 2) net operating losses carried forward may be deducted up to 70% of the alternative minimum net income for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax, and (3) net operating losses carried forward may be deducted up to 80% of the net income for purp oses of computing the regular corporate income tax . At September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the Company’s net deferred tax asset amounted to $14 3.9 million and $ 108.7 million, respectively. In assessing the realizability of the deferred tax asset, ma nagement considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods i n which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical tax able income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax asset are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the deferred tax asset, net of the existing valuation allowa nces recorded at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 . The amount of the deferred tax asset that is considered realizable could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced. At September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , Oriental International Bank Inc. (“OIB”), the Bank’s international banking entity subsidiary, had $ 153 thousand and $ 186 thousand, respectively, in income tax effect of unrecognized gain on available-for-sale securities inc luded in other comprehensive income. Following the change in OIB’s applicable tax rate from 5 % to 0 % as a result of a Puerto Rico law adopted in 2011, this remaining tax balance will flow through income as these securities are repaid or sold in future peri ods. For both quarters ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 , $ 11 thousand, respectively, related to this residual tax effect from OIB was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into income tax provision . During the period ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 , $ 33 thousand and $ 158 thousand, respectively, related to this residual tax effect from OIB was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into income tax provision The Company classifies unrecognized tax benefits in income taxes payable. These gross unrecognized tax benefits would affect the effective tax rate if realized. The balance of unrecognized tax benefits at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 was $ 2.1 million and $ 2.6 million, respectively. The Company had accrued $ 122 tho usand at September 30 , 2015 and $ 47 0 thousand at December 31 , 2014 for the payment of interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits. During this quarter $ 200 thousand wa s released based on negotiations with the IRS. F or the quarter ended September 30 , 2015 , i ncome tax expense was $56 2 thousand compared to $8.0 million for the same period in 2014. F or the nine-month period ended September 30 , 2015 , i ncome tax expense was $ 2.3 million compared to $ 30.4 million for the same period in 2014 .

Regulatory Capital Requirements Abstract
Regulatory Capital Requirements Under Banking Regulations Text Block	NOTE 1 5 — REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENT S Regulatory Capital Requirements The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and Puerto Rico banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt correcti ve action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and class ification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, federal banking regulators have adopted new capital rules that became effective January 1, 2015 fo r the Company and the Bank (subject to certain phase-in periods through January 1, 2019) and that replaced their general risk-based capital rules, advanced approaches rule, market risk rule, and leverage rules. Among other matters, the new capital r ules: ( i ) introduce a new capital measure called “Common Equity Tier 1” (“CET1”) and related regulatory capital ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets; (ii) specify that Tier 1 capital consists of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 capital” instruments meeting certain re vised requirements; (iii) mandate that most deductions/adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to the other components of capital; and (iv) expand the scope of the deductions from and adjustments to capital as compared to prior r egulations. The new capital r ules prescribe a new standardized approach for risk weightings that expand the risk-weighting categories from the current four Basel I-derived categories (0%, 20%, 50% and 100%) to a larger and more risk-sensitive number of cat egories, depending on the nature of the assets, and resulting in higher risk weights for a variety of asset classes. Pursuant to the n ew c apital r ules, the minimum capital ratios requirements as of January 1, 2015 are as follows: 4.5% CET1 to risk-weighted assets; 6.0% Tier 1 capital (that is, CET1 plus Additional Tier 1 capital) to risk-weighted assets; 8.0% Total capital (that is, Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital) to risk-weighted assets; and 4 .0 % Tie r 1 capital to average consolidated assets as reported on consolidated financial statements (known as the “leverage ratio”). As of September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. As of September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the Bank is “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “we ll capitalized,” an institution must maintain minimum CET1 risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based , total risk-based, and T ier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the tables presented below. The Company ’s and the Bank’s actual capital a mounts and ratios as of September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 are as follows: Minimum Capital Minimum to be Well Actual Requirement Capitalized Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio (Dollars in thousands) Company Ratios As of September 30, 2015 Total capital to risk-weighted assets $ 847,167 16.96% $ 399,615 8.00% $ 499,519 10.00% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets $ 782,560 15.67% $ 299,711 6.00% $ 399,615 8.00% Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets $ 601,788 12.05% $ 224,783 4.50% $ 324,687 6.50% Tier 1 capital to average total assets $ 782,560 10.93% $ 286,493 4.00% $ 358,117 5.00% As of December 31, 2014 Total capital to risk-weighted assets $ 851,437 17.57% $ 387,772 8.00% $ 484,715 10.00% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets $ 776,525 16.02% $ 193,886 4.00% $ 290,829 6.00% Tier 1 capital to average total assets $ 776,525 10.61% $ 292,738 4.00% $ 365,922 5.00% Minimum Capital Minimum to be Well Actual Requirement Capitalized Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio (Dollars in thousands) Bank Ratios As of September 30, 2015 Total capital to risk-weighted assets $ 811,297 16.28% $ 398,677 8.00% $ 498,346 10.00% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets $ 746,921 14.99% $ 299,008 6.00% $ 398,677 8.00% Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets $ 746,921 14.99% $ 224,256 4.50% $ 323,925 6.50% Tier 1 capital to average total assets $ 746,921 10.50% $ 284,481 4.00% $ 355,601 5.00% As of December 31, 2014 Total capital to risk-weighted assets $ 820,884 16.99% $ 386,444 8.00% $ 483,055 10.00% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets $ 746,177 15.45% $ 193,222 4.00% $ 289,833 6.00% Tier 1 capital to average total assets $ 746,177 10.26% $ 290,879 4.00% $ 363,599 5.00%

Guarantees [Abstract]
Guarantees [Text Block]	NOTE 19 – GUARANTEES At September 30 , 2015 , the unamortized balance of the obligations undertaken in issuing the guarantees under standby letters of credit represented a liability of $ 15.0 million ( December 31 , 2014 - $33.0 million). As a result of the BBVAPR Acquisition, the Company assumed a liability for residential mortgage loans sold subject to credit recourse, pursuant to FNMA’s residential mortgage loan sales a nd securitization programs. At September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the unpaid prin cipal balance of residential mortgage loans sold subject to credit recourse was $ 25.0 million and $ 67.8 million, respectively . The following table shows the changes in the Company’s liability for estimated losses from these credit recourse agreements, inc luded in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condi tion during the quarters and nine-month periods ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 . Quarter Ended September 30, Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 (In thousands) Balance at beginning of period $ 289 $ 1,310 $ 927 $ 1,955 Net (charge-offs/terminations) recoveries 140 (232) (498) (877) Balance at end of period $ 429 $ 1,078 $ 429 $ 1,078 The estimated losses to be absorbed under the credit recourse arrangements were recorded as a liability when the credit recourse was assumed, and are updated on a quarterly basis. The expected loss, which represents the amount expected to be lost on a given loan, considers the probability of default and loss severity. The probability of default represents the probability that a loan in good standing would become 120 days delinquent, in which case the Company is obligated to repurchase the loan. T he reco urse obligation will be fully extinguished before the end of 201 7 . If a borrower defaults, pursuant to the credit recourse provided, the Company is required to repurchase the loan or reimburse the third party investor for the incurred loss. The maximum p otential amount of future payments that the Company would be required to make under the recourse arrangements is equivalent to the total outstanding balance of the residential mortgage loans serviced with recourse and interest, if applicable. During the qu arter and nine- month period ended September 30 , 2015 the Company repurchased approximately $ 165 thousand and $ 3.4 million, respectively, of unpaid principal balance in mortgage loans subject to the credit recourse provisions. During the quarter and nine -mo nth period ended September 30 , 2014 the Company repurchased approximately $ 1.9 million and $ 5. 6 million, respectively, of unpaid principal balance in mortgage loans subject to the credit recourse provisions. If a borrower defaults, the Company has rights t o the underlying collateral securing the mortgage loan. The Company suffers losses on these mortgage loans when the proceeds from a foreclosure sale of the collateral property are less than the outstanding principal balance of the loan, any uncollected int erest advanced, and the costs of holding and disposing the related property. At September 30 , 2015 , the Company’s liability for estimated credit losses related to loans sold with credit recourse amounted to $429 thousand ( December 31 , 2014 – $927 thousand). When the Company sells or securitizes mortgage loans, it generally makes customary representations and warranties regarding the characteristics of the loans sold. The Company's mortgage operations division groups conforming mortgage loans into pools which are exchanged for FNMA and GNMA mortgage-backed securities, which are generally sold to private investors, or are sold directly to FNMA or other private investors for cash. As required under such mortgage backed securities programs, quality review pr ocedures are performed by the Company to ensure that asset guideline qualifications are met. To the extent the loans do not meet specified characteristics, the Company may be required to repurchase such loans or indemnify for losses and bear any subsequent loss related to the loans. At September 30 , 2015 , the Company’s representation and warranty arrangements, excluding mortgage loans subject to credit recourse provisions referred to above, approximated $ 19.5 million in unpaid principal balance ( December 31 , 2014 – $10.7 million) . A substantial amount of these loans are reinstated to performing status or have mortgage insurance, and thus the ultimate losses on the loans are not deemed significant. During the quarter and nine- month period ended September 30 , 2015 , the Company recognized $ 418 thousand and $ 1.0 million in losses from the repurchase of residential mortgage loans sold subject to credit recourse, and $ 500 thousand and $ 2.0 million in losses from the repurchase of residential mortgage loans as a re sult of breaches of the customary representations and warranties. During the quarter and nine- month period ended September 30 , 2014 , the Company recognized $ 115 thousand and $ 261 thousand , respectively, in losses from the repurchase of residential mortgage loans sold subject to credit recourse, and $ 979 thousand and $ 1.9 thousand in losses from the repurchase of residential mortgage loans as a result of breaches of the customary representations and warranties. Servicing agreements relating to the mo rtgage-backed securities programs of FNMA and GNMA, and to mortgage loans sold or serviced to certain other investors, including the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), require the Company to advance funds to make scheduled payments of princi pal, interest, taxes and insurance, if such payments have not been received from the borrowers. At September 30 , 2015 , the Company serviced $ 62 5.3 million in mortgage loans for third-parties. The Company generally recovers funds advanced pursuant to these arrangements from the mortgage owner, from liquidation proceeds when the mortgage loan is foreclosed or, in the case of FHA/VA loans, under the applicable FHA and VA insurance and guarantees programs. However, in the meantime, the Company must absorb the c ost of the funds it advances during the time the advance is outstanding. The Company must also bear the costs of attempting to collect on delinquent and defaulted mortgage loans. In addition, if a defaulted loan is not cured, the mortgage loan would be can celed as part of the foreclosure proceedings and the Company would not receive any future servicing income with respect to that loan. At September 30 , 2015 , the outstanding balance of funds advanced by the Company under such mortgage loan servicing agreeme nts was approximately $ 305 thousand ( December 31 , 2014 - $ 391 thousand). To the extent the mortgage loans underlying the Company's servicing portfolio experience increased delinquencies, the Company would be required to dedicate additional cash resources t o comply with its obligation to advance funds as well as incur additional administrative costs related to increases in collection efforts.

Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract]
Commitments	NOTE 20 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Loan Commitments I n the normal course of business, the Company becomes a party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby and commercial letters of credit, and financial gua rantees. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess o f the amounts recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The contract or notional amount of those instruments reflects the extent of the Company ’s involvement in particular types of financial instruments. The Company ’s exposure to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument f or commitments to extend credit, including commitments under credit card arrangements, and commercial letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount s of those instruments, which do not nec essarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. In addition, the measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are identified. The Company uses the same credit policie s in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. C redit-related f inancial instruments at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 were as follows: September 30, December 31, 2015 2014 (In thousands) Commitments to extend credit $ 432,006 $ 493,248 Commercial letters of credit 1,443 885 Commitments to extend credit represent agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company upon the extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterpar ty. A t September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , commitments to extend credit consisted mainly of undisbursed available amounts on commercial lines of credit, construction loans, and revolving credit card arrangements. Since many of the unused commitments are expected to expire unused or be only partially used, the total amount of these unused commitments does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. These lines of credit had a reserve of $ 667 thousand at September 30 , 2015 and $ 621 thousand at December 31 , 2014 . Commercial letters of credit are issued or confirmed to guarantee payment of customers’ payables or receivables in short-term international trade transactions. Generally, drafts will be drawn when the underlying transaction is consummat ed as intended. However, the short-term nature of this instrument serves to mitigate the risk associated with these contracts. The summary of instruments that are considered financial guarantees in accordance with the authoritative guidance related to g uarantor’s accounting and disclosure requirement s for guarantees, including indirect guarantees of indebtedness of others , at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , is as follows: September 30, December 31, 2015 2014 (In thousands) Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees $ 15,007 $ 32,970 Loans sold with recourse 24,996 67,803 Commitments to sell or securitize mortgage loans 61,597 10,207 Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees are written conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the payment and/or performance of a customer to a third party (“beneficiary”). If the customer fails to comply with the agreement, the beneficiary may draw on the standby letter of credit or financial guarantee as a remedy. The amount of credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit in the event of nonperformance is the face amount of the letter of credit or financial guarantee. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluat ion of the customer. Lease Commitments The Company has entered into various operating lease agreements for branch facilities and administrative offices. Rent expense for the quarters ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 , amounted to $ 2.3 million and $ 2.4 million, respectively . F or the nine-month periods ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 , rent expense amounted to $ 7.0 million and $ 7.3 million, respectively, and is included in the “occupancy and equipment” caption in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations . Fut ure rental commitments under leases in effect at September 30 , 2015 , exclusive of taxes, insurance, and maintenance expenses payable by the Company, are summarized as follows: Minimum Rent Year Ending December 31, (In thousands) 2015 $ 2,832 2016 7,697 2017 7,081 2018 6,066 2019 5,829 Thereafter 16,637 $ 46,142
Contingencies	C ontingencies The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of legal proceedings incidental to their business. In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are also subject to governmental and regulatory examinations. Certain subsidiaries of the Company , including the B ank (and its subsidiary OIB) , Oriental Financial Services , and Oriental Insurance, are subject to regulation by various U.S., Puerto Rico and other regulators. The Company seeks to resolve all litigation and regulatory matters in the manner management believes is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and contests allegations of liabilit y or wrongdoing and, where applicable, the amount of damages or scope of any penalties or other relief sought as appropriate in each pending matter. Subject to the accounting and disclosure framework under the provisions of ASC 450 , it is the opinion of the Company ’s management, based on current knowledge and after taking into account its current legal accruals , that the eventual outcome of all matters would not be likely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated statements of financial condition of the Company . Nonetheless, given the substantial or indeterminate amounts sought in certain of these matters, and the inherent unpredictability of such matters, an adverse outcome in certain of these matters could, from time to time, have a material adverse effect on the Company ’s consolidated results of operations or cash flows in particular quarterly or annual periods. The Company has evaluated all litigation and regulatory matters where the likelihood of a potential loss is deemed reasonably possible. The Company has determined that the estimate of the reasonably possible loss is not significant.

Fair Value

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value	NOTE 21 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS T he Company follows the fair value measurement framework under GAAP. Fair Value Measurement The fair value measurement framework defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This framework also establishes a fair value hierarchy wh ich requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Money market investments The fair value of money market investments is based on the carrying amounts reflected in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition as these are reasonable estimates of fair value given the short-term nature of the instruments. Investment securities The fair value of investment securities is based on quoted market prices, when available, or market prices provided by recognized broker-dealers. Such securities are classified as level 1 or level 2 depending on the basis for determining fair value. If listed pric es or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon externally developed mod els that use both observable and unobservable inputs depending on the market activity of the instrument, and such securities are classified as level 3. At September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 , the Company did not have investment securities classified a s Level 3. Derivative instruments The fair value of the interest rate swaps is largely a function of the financial market’s expectations regarding the future direction of interest rates. Accordingly, current market values are not necessarily indicative of the future impact of derivative instruments on earnings. This will depend, for the most part, on the shape of the yield curve, the level of interest rates, as well as the expectations for rates in the future. The fair value of most of these derivative instruments is based on observable market parameters, which include discounting the instruments’ cash flows using the U.S. dollar LIBOR-based discount rates, and also applying yield curves that account for the industry sector and the credit rating of the counterparty and/or the Company . Certain other derivative instruments with limited market activity are valued using externally developed mode ls that consider unobservable market parameters. Based on their valuation methodology, derivative instruments are classif ied as Level 2 or Level 3. The Company has offered its customers certificates of deposit with an option tied to the performance of the S&P Index and uses equity indexed option agreements with major broker-dealer s to manage its exposure to changes in this index. Their fair value is obtained through the use of an external based valuation that was thoroughly evaluated and adopted by manageme nt as its measurement tool for these options. The payoff of these options is linked to the average value of the S&P Index on a specific set of dates during the life of the option. The methodology uses an average rate option or a cash-settled option whose p ayoff is based on the difference between the expected average value of the S&P Index during the remaining life of the option and the strike price at inception. The assumptions, which are uncertain and require a degree of judgment, include primarily S&P Ind ex volatility, forward interest rate projections, estimated index dividend payout, and leverage. Servicing assets Servicing assets do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. Servicing assets are priced using a discounted cash flow model. The valuation model considers servicing fees, portfolio characteristics, prepayment assumptions, delinquency rates, late charges, other ancillary revenues, cost to service and other economic factors. Due to the unobservable nature of certain valuati on inputs, the servicing rights are classified as Level 3. Impaired Loans. Impaired loans are carried at the present value of expected future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate in a discounted cash flow calculation, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent. Expected cash flows are based on internal inputs reflecting expected default rates on contractual cash flows. This method of estimating fair value d oes not incorporate the exit-price concept of fair value described in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820-10 and would generally result in a higher value than the exit-price approach. For loans measured using the estimated fair value of collatera l less costs to sell, fair value is generally determined based on the fair value of the collateral, which is derived from appraisals that take into consideration prices in observed transactions involving similar assets in similar locations, in accordance w ith the provisions of ASC 310-10-35 less disposition costs . Currently, the associated loans considered impaired are classified as Level 3. Foreclosed real estate Foreclosed real estate includes real estate properties securing residential mortgage and com mercial loans. The fair value of foreclosed real estate may be determined using an external appraisal, broker price option or an internal valuation. These foreclosed assets are classified as Level 3 given certain internal adjustments that may be made to ex ternal appraisals . Other repossessed assets Other repossessed assets include repossessed automobile loans and leases . T he fair value of the repossessed automobiles may be determined using internal valuation and an external appraisal. These repossessed assets are classified as Level 3 given certain internal adjustments that may be made to external appraisals.

There were no transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements during such periods. The table below presents quantitative information for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) at September 30 , 2015 : September 30, 2015 Fair Value Valuation Technique Unobservable Input Range (In thousands) Derivative assets (S&P Purchased Options) $ 1,115 Option pricing model Implied option volatility 32.29%- 35.32% Counterparty credit risk (based on 5-year credit default swap ("CDS") spread) 79.96%- 89.03% Servicing assets $ 6,463 Cash flow valuation Constant prepayment rate 5.49% - 10.00% Discount rate 10.58% - 12.00% Derivative liability (S&P Embedded Options) $ (1,041) Option pricing model Implied option volatility 32.29%- 35.32% Counterparty credit risk (based on 5-year CDS spread) 79.96%- 89.03% Collateral dependant impaired loans $ 34,906 Fair value of property or collateral Appraised value less disposition costs 23.20% - 29.20% Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority line of credit $ 174,183 Cash flow valuation Discount rate 7.25% Other non-collateral dependant impaired loans $ 4,788 Cash flow valuation Discount rate 5.75% - 16.95% Foreclosed real estate $ 64,117 Fair value of property or collateral Appraised value less disposition costs 23.20% - 29.20% Other repossessed assets $ 8,948 Fair value of property or collateral Appraised value less disposition costs 23.20% - 29.20% Information about Sensitivity to Changes in Significant Unobservable Inputs Other debt securities – The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of one of the Company ’s other debt securities are indicative comparable pricing, option adjusted spread (“OAS”) , yield to maturity, and spread to maturity. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly different fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumption used for indicative comparable pricing is accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for OAS and a directionally, although not equally proportional, opposite change in the assumptions used for yield to maturity and spread to maturity. Derivative asset (S&P Purchased Options) – The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company ’s derivative assets related to S&P purchased options are implied option volatility and counterparty credit risk. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly different fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumption used for implied option volatility is not necessarily accompanied by directionally similar or opposite changes in the assumption used for counterparty credit risk. Servicing assets – The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company ’s servicing assets are constant prepayment rates and discount rates. Changes in one factor may result in changes in another (for example, increases in market interest rates may result in lower prepayments), which may magnify or offset the sensitivities. Mortgage banking activities, a component of total banking and financial service revenue in the consolidated statements of operations, include the changes from period to period in the fair value of the mortgage loan servicing rights, which may result from changes in the valuation model inputs or assumptions (principally reflecting changes in discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions) and other changes, including changes due to collection/realization of expected cash flows. Derivative liability (S&P Embedded Options) – The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company ’s derivative liability related to S&P purchased options are implied option volatility and counterparty credit risk. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly different fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumption used for implied option volatility is not necessarily accompanied by directionally similar or opposite changes in the assumption used for counterparty credit risk. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The information about the estimated fair value of financial instruments required by GAAP is presented hereunder. The aggregate fair value amounts presented do not necessarily represent management’s estimate of the underlying value of the Company . The estimated fair va lue is subjective in nature, involves uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and , therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could affect these fair value estimates. The fair value estimates do not take into consideration the value of future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments. Other significant tangible and intangible assets that are not considered financial instruments are the value of long-ter m customer relationships of retail deposits, and premises and equipment. The estimated fair value and carrying value of the Company ’s financial instruments at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 is as follows: September 30, December 31, 2015 2014 Fair Carrying Fair Carrying Value Value Value Value (In thousands) Level 1 Financial Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 526,196 $ 526,196 $ 573,427 $ 573,427 Restricted cash 4,349 4,349 8,407 8,407 Level 2 Financial Assets: Trading securities 583 583 1,594 1,594 Investment securities available-for-sale 1,007,705 1,007,705 1,216,538 1,216,538 Investment securities held-to-maturity 595,148 594,639 164,154 162,752 Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock 20,804 20,804 21,169 21,169 Other investments 3 3 3 3 Derivative assets 2,175 2,175 2,552 2,552 Financial Liabilities: Derivative liabilities 8,622 8,622 11,221 11,221 Level 3 Financial Assets: Total loans (including loans held-for-sale) 4,408,998 4,468,676 4,909,361 4,826,646 Derivative assets 1,115 1,115 5,555 5,555 FDIC indemnification asset 14,151 22,895 75,969 97,378 Accrued interest receivable 18,625 18,625 21,345 21,345 Servicing assets 6,463 6,463 13,992 13,992 Financial Liabilities: Deposits 4,714,106 4,717,074 4,893,247 4,924,406 Securities sold under agreements to repurchase 1,029,439 1,000,664 1,020,621 980,087 Advances from FHLB 336,859 332,936 339,172 334,331 Other borrowings 1,842 1,734 3,979 4,004 Subordinated capital notes 94,127 102,371 104,288 101,584 Accrued expenses and other liabilities 113,450 113,450 133,290 133,290 Derivative liabilities 1,041 1,041 5,477 5,477 The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of signi ficant financial instruments at September 30 , 2015 and December 31 , 2014 : • Cash and cash equivalents (including money market investments and time deposits with other banks ), restricted cash, accrued interest receivable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities have been valued at the ca rrying amounts reflected in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition as these are reasonable estimates of fair value given the short-term nature of the instruments. • Investments in FHLB -NY stock are valued at their redemption value. • The fair value of investment securities , including trading securities and other investments, is based on quoted market prices, when availabl e, or market price s provided by recognized broker- dealers. If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon externally developed models that use both observable and unobservable inputs depending on the ma rket activity of the instrumen t . • The fai r value of the FDIC indemnification asset represents the present value of the net estima ted cash payments expected to be received from the FDIC for future losses on covered assets based on the credit assumptions on estimated cash flows for eac h covered asset pool and the loss sharing percentages. The ultimate collect ability of the FDIC indemnification asset is dependent upon the performance of the underlying covered loans, the passage of time and claims paid by the FDIC which are impacted by th e Bank’s adherence to certain guidelines established by the FDIC. • The fair value of servi cing asset is estimated by using a cash flow valuation model which calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows, taking into consideration actual and expected loan prepayment rates, discount rates, servicing costs, and other economic factors, which are determined based on current market conditions. • The fair values of the derivative instruments are provided by valuation expert s and counterparties. Certain derivatives with limited market activity are valued using externally developed models that consider unobservable mar ket parameters. The Company has offered its customers certificates of deposit with an option tied to the perfo rmance of the S&P Index, and uses equity indexed option agreements with major broker-dealer s to manage its exposure to changes in this index. Their fair value is obtained through the use of an external based valuation that was thoroughly evaluated and adop ted by management as its measurement tool for these options. The payoff of these options is linked to the average value of the S&P Index on a specific set of dates during the life of the option. The methodology uses an average rate option or a cash-settled option whose payoff is based on the difference between the expected average value of the S&P Index during the remaining life of the option and the strike price at inception. The assumptions, which are uncertain and require a degree of judgment, include pr imarily S&P Index volatility, forward interest rate projections, estimated index dividend payout, and leverage. • Fair value of derivative liabilities, which include interest rate swaps and forward-settlement swaps, are based on the net discounted value o f the contractual projected cash flows of both the pay-fixed receive-variable legs of the contracts. The projected cash flows are based on the forward yield curve, and discounted using current estimated market rates. • The fair value of the loan portfolio (including loans held-for-sale) is estimated by segregating by type, such as mort gage, commercial, consumer, auto and leasing. Each loan segment is further segmented into fixed and adjustable interest rates and by performing and non-performing categories. The fair value of performing loans is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows, adjusted for prepayment estimates (voluntary and involuntary), if any, using estimated current market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inh erent in the loan. This fair value is not currently an indication of an exit price as that type of assumption could result in a different fair value estimate . Non-performing loans have been valued at the carrying amounts. • The fair value of demand deposits and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of the contractual cash flows, using estimated current market discount rates for deposits of similar remaining maturities. • The fair value of long-term borrowings , which include securities sold under agreements to repurchase, advances from FHLB-NY, other borrowings, and subordinated capital notes, is based on the discounted valu e of the contractual cash flows using current estimated market discount rates for b orrowings with similar terms, remaining maturities and put dates .

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting	NOTE 22 – BUSINESS SEGMENT S The Company segregates its businesses into the following major reportable segments of business: Banking, Wealth Management, and Treasury. Management established the reportable segments based on the internal reporting used to evaluate performance and to assess where to allocate resources. Other factors such as the Company’s organization, nature of its products, distribution channels and economic characteristics of the products were also considered in the determination of the re portable segments. The Company measures the performance of these reportable segments based on pre-established goals of different financial parameters such as net income, net interest income, loan production, and fees generated. The Company’s methodology fo r allocating non-interest expenses among segments is based on several factors such as revenue, employee headcount, occupied space, dedicated services or time, among others. These factors are reviewed on a periodical basis and may change if the conditions w arrant. Banking includes the Bank’s branches and traditional banking products such as deposits and commercial, consumer and mortgage loans. Mortgage banking activities are carried out by the Bank’s mortgage banking division, whose principal activity is to originate mortgage loans for the Company’s own portfolio. As part of its mortgage banking activities, the Company may sell loans directly into the secondary market or securitize conforming loans into mortgage-backed securities. Wealth Management is com prised of the Bank’s trust division, Oriental Financial Services, Oriental Insurance, and OPC. The core operations of this segment are financial planning, money management and investment banking, brokerage services, insurance sales activity, corporate and individual trust and retirement services, as well as retirement plan administration services. The Treasury segment encompasses all of the Company’s asset/liability management activities, such as purchases and sales of investment securities, interest rate risk management, derivatives, and borrowings. Intersegment sales and transfers, if any, are accounted for as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current market prices. Following are the results of operations and the selected financial informatio n by operating segment for the quarters and nine-month periods ended September 30 , 2015 and 2014 : Quarter Ended September 30, 2015 Wealth Total Major Consolidated Banking Management Treasury Segments Eliminations Total (In thousands) Interest income $ 97,264 $ 25 $ 9,958 $ 107,247 $ - $ 107,247 Interest expense (7,036) - (10,388) (17,424) - (17,424) Net interest income 90,228 25 (430) 89,823 - 89,823 Provision for loan and lease losses (51,579) - - (51,579) - (51,579) Non-interest income (loss) 30,098 6,513 (634) 35,977 - 35,977 Non-interest expenses (63,106) (5,063) (921) (69,090) - (69,090) Intersegment revenue 351 - 69 420 (420) - Intersegment expenses (69) (252) (99) (420) 420 - Income before income taxes $ 5,923 $ 1,223 $ (2,015) $ 5,131 $ - $ 5,131 Total assets $ 5,990,125 $ 20,594 $ 2,117,569 $ 8,128,288 (924,466) $ 7,203,822 Quarter Ended September 30, 2014 Wealth Total Major Consolidated Banking Management Treasury Segments Eliminations Total (In thousands) Interest income $ 108,548 $ 44 $ 11,709 $ 120,301 $ - $ 120,301 Interest expense (7,892) - (10,538) (18,430) - (18,430) Net interest income 100,656 44 1,171 101,871 - 101,871 Provision for loan and lease losses (17,257) - - (17,257) - (17,257) Non-interest income (loss) (3,242) 6,208 (475) 2,491 - 2,491 Non-interest expenses (53,669) (4,483) (1,423) (59,575) - (59,575) Intersegment revenue 431 - 290 721 (721) - Intersegment expenses (290) (330) (101) (721) 721 - Income before income taxes $ 26,629 $ 1,439 $ (538) $ 27,530 $ - $ 27,530 Total assets $ 6,494,141 $ 26,800 $ 2,098,341 $ 8,619,282 (945,943) $ 7,673,339 Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2015 Wealth Total Major Consolidated Banking Management Treasury Segments Eliminations Total (In thousands) Interest income $ 285,251 $ 71 $ 28,339 $ 313,661 $ - $ 313,661 Interest expense (21,600) - (30,311) (51,911) - (51,911) Net interest income 263,651 71 (1,972) 261,750 - 261,750 Provision for loan and lease losses (109,311) - - (109,311) - (109,311) Non-interest income(loss) 16,136 20,416 1,650 38,202 - 38,202 Non-interest expenses (169,264) (16,586) (4,009) (189,859) - (189,859) Intersegment revenue 1,058 - 228 1,286 (1,286) - Intersegment expenses (228) (770) (288) (1,286) 1,286 - Income before income taxes $ 2,042 $ 3,131 $ (4,391) $ 782 $ - $ 782 Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2014 Wealth Total Major Consolidated Banking Management Treasury Segments Eliminations Total (In thousands) Interest income $ 330,148 $ 132 $ 38,995 $ 369,275 $ - $ 369,275 Interest expense (26,235) - (31,693) (57,928) - (57,928) Net interest income 303,913 132 7,302 311,347 - 311,347 Provision for loan and lease losses (43,763) - - (43,763) - (43,763) Non-interest income(loss) (14,845) 20,232 2,840 8,227 - 8,227 Non-interest expenses (156,867) (15,629) (8,331) (180,827) - (180,827) Intersegment revenue 1,410 - 290 1,700 (1,700) - Intersegment expenses (290) (1,089) (321) (1,700) 1,700 - Income (loss) before income taxes $ 89,558 $ 3,646 $ 1,780 $ 94,984 $ - $ 94,984

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
New Accounting Pronouncements Policy [Policy Text Block]	Recent Accounting Developments In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires that all costs incurred to issue debt be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability rather than as an asset. The standard does not affect the recognit ion and measurement of debt issuance costs; therefore, the amortization of such costs shall continue to be reported as interest expense. ASU 2015-03 will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permissible for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis to all prior periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 to have a mat erial impact on its consolidated financial statements. Other than the accounting pronouncement disclosed above, there were no other new accounting pronouncement s issued during the third quarter of 2015 that could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, operating results or financials statement disclosures.

FDIC Assisted Transaction Description	Also in connection with the FDIC assisted acquisition, the Bank agreed to make a true-up payment, also known as a clawback liability or clawback provision, to the FDIC on the date that is 45 days following the last day (such day, the “True-Up Measurement Date”) of the final shared-loss month, or upon the final disposition of all covered assets under the shared-loss agreements in the event losses thereunder fail to reach expected levels. Under the shared-loss agreements, the Bank will pay to the FDIC 50% of the excess, if any, of: (i) 20% of the Intrinsic Loss Estimate of $906.0 million (or $181.2 million) (as determined by the FDIC) less (ii) the sum of: (A) 25% of the asset premium (discount) of ($227.5 million) (or ($56.9 million)); plus (B) 25% of the cumulative shared-loss payments (defined as the aggregate of all of the payments made or payable to the Bank minus the aggregate of all of the payments made or payable to the FDIC); plus (C) the sum of the period servicing amounts for every consecutive twelve-month period prior to and ending on the True-Up Measurement Date in respect of each of the shared-loss agreements during which the shared-loss provisions of the applicable shared-loss agreement is in effect (defined as the product of the simple average of the principal amount of shared-loss loans and shared-loss assets at the beginning and end of such period times 1%). The true-up payment represents an estimated liability of $24.4 million and $22.0 million, net of discount, as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The estimated liability is included within accrued expenses and other liabilities in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition. The true-up payment obligation, also known as clawback liability, may increase if actual and expected losses decline. The Company measures the true-up payment obligation at fair value. During the quarters and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 the fair value of the true-up payment obligation increased by $864 thousand and $2.5 million and $875 thousand and $2.6 million, respectively. These changes in fair value are included as change in true-up payment obligation within FDIC shared-loss expense, net, in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.
