Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation Amalgamated Financial Corp., a Delaware public benefit corporation (the "Company"), was formed on August 25, 2020 to serve as the holding company for Amalgamated Bank and is a bank holding company registered with the Federal Reserve Board of Governors under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. On March 1, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Amalgamated Bank, a New York state-chartered commercial bank in a statutory share exchange transaction (the “Reorganization”) effected under New York law and in accordance with the terms of a Plan of Acquisition dated September 4, 2020 (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Reorganization, the Bank became the sole subsidiary of the Company, the Company became the holding company for the Bank and the stockholders of the Bank became stockholders of the Company. The Bank was formed in 1923 as Amalgamated Bank of New York by the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, one of the country’s oldest labor unions. The audited consolidated financial statements presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K include the collective results of the Holding Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank, which are collectively herein referred to as the “Company.” Basis of Accounting and Changes in Significant Accounting Policies The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States of America, or GAAP and predominant practices within the banking industry. The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting for financial statement purposes. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned and wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In particular, estimates and assumptions are used in measuring the fair value of certain financial instruments, determining the appropriateness of the allowance for loan and lease losses (“allowance”), evaluating potential other-than-temporary securities impairment, assessing the ability to realize deferred tax assets, and the valuation of share-based payment awards. Estimates and assumptions are based on available information and judgment; therefore actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash include cash, due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and federal funds sold with original maturities of three months or less. The Company had $0.4 million and $0.4 million in restricted cash as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively and is included in total cash and cash equivalents on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company’s restricted cash reflects funds held in other financial institutions to secure business operating rights or contractually obligated minimum account funding requirements. Securities Purchases of investments in debt securities are designated as either trading, available for sale or held-to-maturity depending on the intent and ability to hold the securities. The initial designation is made at the time of purchase. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no securities designated as trading. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with any net unrealized appreciation or depreciation in fair value reported net of taxes as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Debt securities held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost provided management does not have the intent to sell these securities and does not anticipate that it will be necessary to sell these securities before the full recovery of principal and interest, which may be at maturity. The Company reported its investments in "Property Assessed Clean Energy" ("PACE") assessments as held-to-maturity securities. Management conducts a periodic evaluation of securities available for sale and held-to-maturity to determine if the amortized cost basis of a security has been other-than-temporarily impaired ("OTTI"). The evaluation of other-than-temporary impairment is a quantitative and qualitative process, which is subject to risks and uncertainties. If the amortized cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, management evaluates, among other factors, general market conditions, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than amortized cost, the probability of a near-term recovery in value, whether management intends to sell the security and whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before full recovery of the investment or maturity. Management also considers specific adverse conditions related to the financial health, projected cash flow and business outlook for the investee, including industry and sector performance, operational and financing cash flow factors and rating agency actions. For debt investment securities deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the investment is written down to fair value with the estimated credit loss charged to current earnings and the noncredit-related impairment loss charged to other comprehensive income. If market, industry and/or investee conditions deteriorate, the Company may incur future impairments. Premiums (discounts) on debt securities are amortized (accreted) to income using the level yield method to the contractual maturity date adjusted for actual prepayment experience. Realized gains and losses on sale of securities are determined using the specific identification method and are reported in non-interest income. Loans Held for Sale Loans held for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to current earnings. Gains or losses resulting from sales of loans held for sale, net of unamortized deferred fees and costs, are recognized at the time of sale and are included in other non-interest income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company had $7.9 million and $3.3 million of loans classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Loans and Loan Interest Income Recognition Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of charge-offs, deferred origination costs and fees and purchase premiums and discounts. Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct and indirect costs incurred in connection with loan originations are deferred and amortized to income over the life of the related loans as an adjustment to yield. Premiums or discounts on purchased portfolios are amortized or accreted to income using the level yield method. Interest on loans is generally recognized on the accrual basis. Interest is not accrued on loans that are more than 90 days delinquent on payments, and any interest that was accrued but unpaid on such loans is reversed from interest income at that time, or when deemed to be uncollectible. Interest subsequently received on such loans is recorded as interest income or alternatively as a reduction in the amortized cost of the loan if there is significant doubt as to the collectability of the unpaid principal balance. Loans are returned to accrual status when principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the contractual terms. Individual loans which are deemed to be impaired are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral net of estimated selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent. Individual loan impairment evaluation is generally limited to multifamily, commercial real estate ("CRE"), commercial and industrial ("C&I"), construction and certain restructured residential real estate loans. Smaller balance loans including home equity lines of credit ("HELOCs"), consumer and student loans, as well as non-restructured residential real estate loans, are considered homogeneous. When assessing homogenous loans for impairment, the Company considers regulatory guidance concerning the classification and management of retail credits. The aggregate amount of individually and collectively measured loan impairment is included as a component of the allowance. Loans are considered troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and is afforded a concession by the Company, such as, but not limited to: (i) payment deferral; (ii) a reduction of the stated interest rate for the remaining contractual life of the loan; (iii) an extension of the loan’s original contractual term at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for a new loan with similar risk; (iv) capitalization of interest; or (v) forgiveness of principal or interest. Generally, TDRs are placed on nonaccrual status (and reported as non-performing loans) until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. A TDR loan is considered impaired. A loan extended or renewed at a stated interest rate equal to the market interest rate for new debt with similar risk is not considered to be a TDR. In accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations, no allowance is brought forward on any of the loans we acquire. For purchased non-credit impaired loans, credit and interest rate discounts representing the principal losses expected over the life of the loan are a component of the initial fair value and the total combined discount is accreted to interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the method used to evaluate the sufficiency of the discount is similar to organic loans, and if necessary, additional reserves are recognized in the allowance. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan and lease losses (“allowance”) is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. The Company monitors its entire loan portfolio on a regular basis and considers numerous factors including (i) end-of-period loan levels and portfolio composition, (ii) observable trends in non-performing loans, (iii) the Company’s historical loan loss experience, (iv) known and inherent risks in the portfolio, (v) underwriting practices, (vi) adverse situations which may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, (vii) the estimated value and sufficiency of any underlying collateral, (viii) credit risk grading assessments, (ix) loan impairment, and (x) economic conditions. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. Additions to the allowance are charged to expense, and realized losses, net of recoveries, are charged to the allowance. Based on the determination of management, the overall level of allowance is periodically adjusted to account for the inherent and specific risks within the entire portfolio. Based on review of the classified loans and the overall allowance levels as they relate to the entire loan portfolio at December 31, 2022, management believes the allowance is adequate. Generally, a loan is considered for charge-off when it is in default of either principal or interest after 90 days or more. In addition to delinquency criteria, other triggering events may include, but are not limited to, notice of bankruptcy by the borrower or guarantor, death of the borrower, and deficiency balance from the sale of collateral. Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit, and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, often including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment. An allowance is calculated and recorded in other liabilities within the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions or reductions to the allowance may be necessary due to changes in one or more evaluation factors; management’s assumptions as to rates of default, loss or recovery, or management’s intent with regard to disposition. A shift in lending strategy may warrant a change in the allowance due to a changing credit risk profile. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of the examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to, or charge-offs against, the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examination. FHLBNY Stock As a condition of membership with the FHLBNY, the Company is required to hold FHLBNY stock in an amount equal to 0.125% of its aggregate mortgage related assets plus 4.5% of its outstanding FHLBNY advances. The Company’s holdings of FHLBNY stock are pledged against outstanding advances. FHLBNY stock is a non-marketable equity security and is, therefore, reported at cost, which equals par value (the amount at which shares have been redeemed in the past). The investment is periodically evaluated for impairment based on, among other things, the capital adequacy of the FHLBNY and its overall financial condition. Other Real Estate Owned Other real estate owned (“OREO”) properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are recorded initially at fair value less costs to sell. Any write-down of the recorded investment in the related loan is charged to the allowance prior to transfer. OREO assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through non-interest income. Costs relating to the development and improvement of other real estate owned are capitalized. Costs relating to holding other real estate owned, including real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance, are charged to expense as incurred. The balance of OREO was $0 at both December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill resulting from business combinations is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate the carrying amount of the asset may be impaired. The Company elected June 30 as the annual date for impairment testing. Other intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Core deposit intangible assets are amortized on an accelerated method over their estimated useful lives of ten years. Premises and Equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation of furniture, fixtures, and equipment is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Furniture and fixtures are generally depreciated over ten years. Equipment, computer hardware and computer software are normally depreciated over three Leases The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception. For leases with terms greater than twelve months under which the Company is lessee, right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recorded at the commencement date. Lease liabilities are initially recorded based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets are initially recorded at the amount of the associated lease liabilities plus prepaid lease payments and initial direct costs, less any lease incentives received. The cost of short term leases is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term. The lease term includes options to extend if the exercise of those options is reasonably certain and includes termination options if there is reasonable certainty the options will not be exercised. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) as the discount rate to the remaining lease payments to derive a present value calculation for initial measurement of lease liabilities. The IBR reflects the interest rate the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term for an amount equal to the lease payments. Leases are classified as financing or operating leases at commencement. All of the Company's leases are classified as operating leases as of December 31, 2022. Operating lease cost is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight line basis over the lease terms. Variable lease costs are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those costs is incurred. Bank-Owned Life Insurance The Company invests in bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”). BOLI involves the purchase of life insurance policies by the Company on a chosen group of employees. The Company is the owner and beneficiary of the policies. The insurance and earnings thereon is used to offset a portion of future employee benefit costs. BOLI is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. Earnings from BOLI, as well as changes in cash surrender value, are recognized as non-interest income. Advertising Costs The Company expenses advertising and promotion costs as incurred. Income Taxes There are two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense (benefit) approximates cash to be paid (refunded) for income taxes for the applicable period. Deferred income tax expense (benefit) results from differences between assets and liabilities measured for financial reporting and for income-tax return purposes. The Company records as a deferred tax asset on its Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition an amount equal to the tax credit and tax loss carry-forwards and tax deductions (tax benefits) that we believe will be available to us to offset or reduce the amounts of our income taxes in future periods. Under applicable federal and state income tax laws and regulations, such tax benefits will expire if not used within specified periods of time. Accordingly, the ability to fully utilize our deferred tax asset may depend on the amount of taxable income that we generate during those time periods. At least once each year, or more frequently, if warranted, we make estimates of future taxable income that we believe we are likely to generate during those future periods. If we conclude, on the basis of those estimates and the amount of the tax benefits available to us, that it is more likely than not that we will be able to fully utilize those tax benefits prior to their expiration, we recognize the deferred tax asset in full on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. If, however, we conclude on the basis of those estimates and the amount of the tax benefits available to us that it has become more likely than not that we will be unable to utilize those tax benefits in full prior to their expiration, then we would establish (or increase any existing) a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax asset on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition to the amount which we believe we are more likely than not to be able to utilize. Such a reduction is implemented by recognizing a non-cash charge that would have the effect of increasing the provision, or reducing any benefit, for income taxes that we would otherwise have recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The determination of whether and the extent to which we will be able to utilize our deferred tax asset involves management judgments and assumptions that are subject to period-to-period changes as a result of changes in tax laws, changes in the market, or economic conditions that could affect our operating results or variances between our actual operating results and our projected operating results, as well as other factors. When measuring the amount of current taxes to be paid (or refunded) management considers the merit of various tax treatments in the context of statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance. Management also considers results of recent tax audits and historical experience. While management considers the amount of income taxes payable (or receivable) to be appropriate based on information currently available, future additions or reductions to such amounts may be necessary due to unanticipated events or changes in circumstances. Management has not taken, and does not expect to take, any position in a tax return which it deems to be uncertain. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The deferral method of accounting is used for investments that generate investment tax credits. Under this method, the investment tax credits are recognized as a reduction of the related asset. Contributions made by the Company are recognized as an increase of the related asset, and distributions are recognized as a reduction. Income and loss generated by the investment is recognized as a corresponding increase or reduction in the related asset. Post-Retirement Benefit Plans The Company sponsors several post-retirement benefit plans for current and former employees and certain directors. Contributions to the trustee of a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan are recorded as expense in the period of contribution. Plan obligations and related expenses for other post retirement plans are calculated using actuarial methodologies. The measurement of such obligations and expenses requires management to make certain assumptions, in particular the discount rate, which is evaluated on an annual basis. Other factors include retirement patterns, mortality and turnover assumptions. The Company uses a December 31 measurement date for its post retirement benefit plans. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 715-30 “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – Pension” requires the Company to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial condition and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year the changes occur through comprehensive income. Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income includes net income and all other changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive income includes income, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are reported net of deferred income taxes. Accumulated other comprehensive income for the Company includes unrealized holding gains or losses on available for sale securities, and actuarial gains or losses on the Company’s pension plans. FASB ASC 715‑30 “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – Pension” requires employers to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year the changes occur through comprehensive income. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is recorded in accordance with FASB ASC No. 718, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” which requires the Company to record compensation cost for stock options and restricted stock granted to employees and directors in return for employee service. The cost is measured at the fair value of the options and restricted stock when granted, and this cost is expensed over the service period, which is normally the vesting period of the options and restricted stock. Forfeitures of options and restricted stock result in a retirement of the related award and a reversal of the cost previously incurred. The Company grants time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that are subject to a time-based vesting schedule, and performance-based RSUs that are subject to the achievement of the Company's corporate goals. The Company's stock-based compensation plans are further described in Note 13, Employee Benefit Plans. Variable Interest Entities The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The Company considers a voting rights entity to be a subsidiary and consolidates if the Company has a controlling financial interest in the entity. VIEs are consolidated if the Company has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that significantly impact financial performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE (i.e., the Company is the primary beneficiary). Investments in VIEs where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of a VIE are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE is reassessed on an ongoing basis. The consolidation status may change as a result of these reassessments. These investments are included in Equity Investments in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The maximum potential exposure to losses relative to investments in VIEs is generally limited to the sum of the outstanding balance, future funding commitments and any related loans to the entity, both funded and unfunded. Loans to these entities are underwritten in substantially the same manner as other loans and are generally secured. Additional disclosures regarding VIEs are further described in Note 18, Variable Interest Entities. Resell Agreements The Company enters into short-term resell agreements backed by residential first-lien mortgage loans. The Company obtains possession of collateral with a market value equal to or in excess of the principal amount loaned under resell agreements. The Company had $25.8 million and $229.0 million in resell agreements as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The resell agreements were entered into at par, and earned $4.2 million, $1.9 million, and $0.8 million in interest income for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 , respectively. Interest income on resell agreements is reported on the "securities interest income" line of the Consolidated Statements of Income. Segment Information Public companies are required to report certain financial information about significant revenue-producing segments of the business for which such information is available and utilized by the chief operating decision maker. Substantially all of our operations occur through the Bank and involve the delivery of loan and deposit products to customers. Management makes operating decisions and assesses performance based on an ongoing review of its banking operation, which constitutes our only operating segment for financial reporting purposes. We do not consider our trust and investment management business as a separate segment. Transfers of Financial Assets Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Company, the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. |

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Accounting Standards Effective in 2022 and onward In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model and provides for recording credit losses on available for sale debt securities through an allowance account. ASU 2016-13 also requires certain incremental disclosures. In October 2019, the FASB voted to extend the adoption date for entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies, public business entities ("PBEs") that are not SEC filers, and entities that are not PBEs from January 1, 2020 to January 1, 2023. Based on the Company's election as an Emerging Growth Company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act to use the extended transition period for complying with any new or revised financial accounting standards, we will adopt the standard on January 1, 2023. The Company’s CECL implementation efforts are continuing to focus on completion of model validation, developing new disclosures, establishing formal policies and procedures and other governance and control documentation. Based on the Company’s portfolio balances and forecasted economic conditions as of January 1, 2023, management believes the adoption of the CECL standard will result in a material increase to its total current reserves. However, the ultimate amount of the increase will be contingent upon continued validation of our model, testing and refinement of the model methodologies and judgments utilized to determine the estimate. Based on implementation progress to date, the Company believes the capital adequacy requirements to which it and the Bank are subject to, and its business strategies and practices, will not be materially impacted following the adoption on January 1, 2023. The Company measured its allowance under its current incurred loan loss model as of December 31, 2022. On March 31, 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, which eliminates the troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") accounting model for creditors that have adopted Topic 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” Specifically, rather than applying the recognition and measurement guidance for TDRs, this ASU requires entities to evaluate receivable modifications, consistent with the accounting for other loan modifications, to determine whether a modification made to a borrower results is a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. In addition, under the new ASU, entities are no longer required to use a discounted cash flow ("DCF") method to measure the ACL as a result of a modification or restructuring with a borrower experiencing financial difficulty. If a DCF method is used, the post-modification-derived effective interest rate is to be used, instead of the original interest rate as stipulated under the current GAAP. This ASU also enhances the disclosure requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. This ASU amends the guidance on “vintage disclosures” to require the disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination. The Company will continue to apply the current TDR accounting model until the adoption of ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) on January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's operating results or financial condition. On January 7, 2021, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. The new guidance amends the scope of ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which was aimed at easing the potential accounting burden expected when global capital markets move away from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") (the benchmark interest rate banks use to make short-term loans to each other) and provided temporary, optional expedients and exceptions for applying accounting guidance to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject |

Equity [Abstract] | |
ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) | ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) The Company records unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, on securities available for sale in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. Gains and losses on securities available for sale are reclassified to operations as the gains or losses are recognized. Other-than-temporary impairment losses on debt securities are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses. The amount of the impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). The Company also recognizes as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) the actuarial gains or losses as well as the prior service costs or credits that arise during the period from post-retirement benefit plans. Other comprehensive income (loss) components and related income tax effects were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 (In thousands) Change in obligation for postretirement benefits and for prior service credit $ 297 $ 231 $ 198 Change in obligation for other benefits 338 (294) 164 Change in total obligation for postretirement benefits and for prior service credit and for other benefits 635 (63) 362 Income tax benefit (expense) (185) 17 (99) Net change in total obligation for postretirement benefits and prior service credit and for other benefits 450 (46) 263 Unrealized holding gains (losses) on available for sale securities (163,001) (15,438) 20,374 Reclassification adjustment for losses (gains) realized in income 3,621 (654) (1,604) Accretion of net unrealized loss on securities transferred to held-to-maturity 1,255 — — Change in unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale securities (158,125) (16,092) 18,770 Income tax benefit (expense) 43,559 4,371 (5,082) Net change in unrealized gains (losses) on securities (114,566) (11,721) 13,688 Total $ (114,116) $ (11,767) $ 13,951 The following is a summary of the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) balances, net of income taxes: Balance as of January 1, Current Income Tax Balance as of December 31, 2022 (In thousands) Unrealized gains (losses) on benefits plans $ (2,102) $ 635 $ (185) $ (1,652) Unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale securities 7,511 (142,230) 39,180 (95,539) Unaccreted unrealized loss on securities transferred to held-to-maturity — (15,895) 4,379 (11,516) Total $ 5,409 $ (157,490) $ 43,374 $ (108,707) Balance as of January 1, 2021 Current Income Tax Balance as of December 31, 2021 (In thousands) Unrealized gains (losses) on benefits plans $ (2,056) $ (63) $ 17 $ (2,102) Unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale securities 19,232 (16,092) 4,371 7,511 Total $ 17,176 $ (16,155) $ 4,388 $ 5,409 The following represents the reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss): Year Ended December 31, Affected Line Item in the Consolidated Statements of Income 2022 2021 2020 (In thousands) Realized gains (losses) on sale of available for sale securities $ (3,637) $ 649 $ 1,605 Gain (loss) on sale of securities Recognized gains (losses) on OTTI securities 16 5 (1) Non-Interest Income - other Accretion of net unrealized loss on securities transferred to held-to-maturity (1,255) — — Interest income on securities Total reclassifications (4,876) 654 1,604 Income tax expense (benefit) (1,343) 180 438 Income tax expense (benefit) Total reclassifications, net of income tax $ (3,533) $ 474 $ 1,166 Prior service credit on pension plans and other postretirement benefits $ 29 $ 29 $ 28 Compensation and employee benefits Income tax benefit (8) (8) (8) Income tax expense (benefit) Total reclassifications, net of income tax $ 21 $ 21 $ 20 Total reclassifications, net of income tax $ (3,512) $ 495 $ 1,186 |

The majority of the securities were pledged to the FHLBNY to secure outstanding advances, letters of credit and to provide additional borrowing potential. In addition, securities were pledged to provide capacity to borrow from the Federal Reserve and to collateralize municipal deposits. The Company reassessed the classification of certain investments during the year ended December 31, 2022 and transferred securities with a book value of $277.3 million from available for sale to held-to-maturity. The transfer occurred at fair market value totaling $260.1 million. The related unrealized losses of $17.2 million were converted to a discount that is being accreted through interest income on a level-yield method over the term of the securities, while the unrealized losses recorded in other comprehensive income are amortized out of other comprehensive income through interest income on a level-yield method over the remaining term of the securities, with no net change to interest income. No gain or loss was recorded at the time of the transfer. During the year ended December 31, 2021, there were no transfers of securities between available for sale and held-to-maturity. The following table summarizes the amortized cost and fair value of debt securities available for sale and held-to-maturity, exclusive of mortgage-backed securities, by their contractual maturity as of December 31, 2022. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without penalty: Available for Sale Held-to-maturity (In thousands) Amortized Fair Value Amortized Fair Value Due within one year $ — $ — $ 2,000 $ 2,000 Due after one year through five years 67,979 60,511 9,419 8,919 Due after five years through ten years 425,938 409,079 10,561 9,590 Due after ten years 568,852 535,278 1,276,064 1,174,746 $ 1,062,769 $ 1,004,868 $ 1,298,044 $ 1,195,255 Year Ended December 31, (In thousands) 2022 2021 2020 Proceeds $ 249,936 $ 111,274 $ 94,698 Realized gains $ 168 $ 1,057 $ 2,111 Realized losses (3,805) (408) (506) Net realized gains (losses) $ (3,637) $ 649 $ 1,605 The Company controls and monitors inherent credit risk in its securities portfolio through due diligence, diversification, concentration limits, periodic securities reviews, and by investing in low risk securities. This includes high quality Non-Agency Securities, low LTV PACE Bonds and a significant portion of the securities portfolio in GSE obligations. GSEs include the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) and the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). GNMA is a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation whereas FHLMC and FNMA are private. Mortgage-related securities may include mortgage pass-through certificates, participation certificates and CMOs. At December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than the U.S. Government and its agencies, in an amount greater than 10% of stockholders' equity.

In general, as market interest rates rise and/or credit spreads widen, the fair value of fixed rate securities will decrease, as market interest rates fall and/or credit spreads tighten, the fair value of fixed rate securities will increase. As of December 31, 2022, excluding GSE and U.S. Treasury securities., temporarily impaired securities totaled $2.57 billion with an unrealized loss of $205.5 million. These securities were rated investment grade by at least one Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization ("NRSRO") with no ratings below investment grade. All issues were current as to their interest payments. The Company has had no losses on any PACE bonds and are not aware of any losses that could be material in the sector given the low LTV position. Management considers that the temporary impairment of these investments as of December 31, 2022 is primarily due to an increase in market spreads since the time these investments were acquired. With respect to the Company’s security investments that are temporarily impaired as of December 31, 2022, management does not intend to sell these investments and does not believe it will be necessary to do so before anticipated recovery. The Company expects to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of these investments. Therefore, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2022. None of these positions or other securities held in the portfolio or sold during the year were purchased with the intent of selling them or would otherwise be classified as trading securities under ASC No. 320, Investments – Debt Securities. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded an OTTI recovery of $15,900, compared to a recovery of $4,800 and a loss of $900, respectively. Events which may cause material declines in the fair value of debt investments may include, but are not limited to, deterioration of credit metrics, higher incidences of default, worsening liquidity, worsening global or domestic economic conditions or adverse regulatory action. Management does not believe that there are any cases of unrecorded OTTI as of December 31, 2022. FHLBNY Stock |

LOANS RECEIVABLE, NET | LOANS RECEIVABLE, NET Loans receivable are summarized as follows: December 31, December 31, (In thousands) Commercial and industrial $ 925,641 $ 729,385 Multifamily 967,521 821,801 Commercial real estate 335,133 369,429 Construction and land development 37,696 31,539 Total commercial portfolio 2,265,991 1,952,154 Residential real estate lending 1,371,779 1,063,682 Consumer and other 463,999 291,818 Total retail portfolio 1,835,778 1,355,500 Total loans receivable 4,101,769 3,307,654 Net deferred loan origination costs 4,233 4,570 Total loans receivable, net of deferred loan origination costs (fees) 4,106,002 3,312,224 Allowance for loan losses (45,031) (35,866) Total loans receivable, net $ 4,060,971 $ 3,276,358 Lending Risk The principal business of the Company is lending in commercial and industrial loans, multifamily mortgage loans, commercial real estate loans, construction and land development loans, residential real estate mortgage loans, and consumer and other loans. The Company considers its primary lending area to be the states of New York, and California, and Washington, D.C. A substantial portion of the Company’s loans are secured by real estate in these areas. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of the loan portfolio is susceptible to changes in market and economic conditions in this region. Commercial and Industrial Loans Loans in this classification are made to businesses and include term loans, lines of credit, and senior secured loans to corporations. Generally, these loans are secured by assets of the business and repayment is expected from the cash flows of the business. A weakened economy, and resultant decreased consumer and/or business spending, will have an effect on the credit quality in this loan class. Multifamily Mortgage Loans Loans in this classification include income producing residential investment properties of five or more families. Loans are made to established owners with a proven and demonstrable record of strong performance. Repayment is derived generally from the rental income generated from the property and may be supplemented by the owners’ personal cash flow. Credit risk arises with an increase in vacancy rates, property mismanagement and the predominance of non-recourse loans that are customary in the industry. Commercial Real Estate Loans Loans in this classification include income producing investment properties and owner-occupied real estate used for business purposes. The underlying properties are located largely in the Company’s primary market area. The cash flows of the income producing investment properties are adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy as evidenced by increased vacancy rates, which in turn, will have an effect on credit quality. In the case of owner-occupied real estate used for business purposes, a weakened economy and resultant decreased consumer and/or business spending will have an adverse effect on credit quality. Construction and Land Development Loans Loans in this classification primarily include land loans to local individuals, contractors and developers for developing the land for sale or for the purpose of making improvements thereon. Repayment is derived primarily from sale of the lots/units including any pre-sold units. Credit risk is affected by market conditions, time to sell at an adequate price and cost overruns. To a lesser extent, this class includes commercial development projects that the Company finances, which in most cases require interest only during construction, and then convert to permanent financing. Construction delays, cost overruns, market conditions and the availability of permanent financing, to the extent such permanent financing is not being provided by the Bank, all affect the credit risk in this loan class. Residential Real Estate Loans Loans in this classification are generally secured by owner-occupied residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. Loans in this class are secured by both first liens and second liens. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, can have an effect on the credit quality in this loan class. Consumer and Other Loans Loans in this classification may be either secured or unsecured. Residential solar loans compose the majority of this portfolio, with student loans and other consumer products composing the remainder. Repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower and, if applicable, sale of the collateral securing the loan. Therefore, the overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this loan class.

There were $6.9 million and $1.0 million such loans as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. For a loan modification to be considered a TDR in accordance with ASC 310-40, both of the following conditions must be met: the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, and the creditor has granted a concession (except for an “insignificant delay in payment”, defined as six months or less). Loans modified as TDRs are placed on nonaccrual status until the Company determines that future collection of principal and interest is reasonably assured, which generally requires that the borrower demonstrate performance according to the restructured terms for a period of at least six months. The Company’s TDRs primarily involve rate reductions, forbearance of arrears or extension of maturity. TDRs are included in total impaired loans as of the respective date. The following table presents information regarding the Company’s TDRs as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021: December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 (In thousands) Accruing Nonaccrual Total Accruing Nonaccrual Total Commercial and industrial $ 3,503 $ 9,629 $ 13,132 $ 4,052 $ 8,313 $ 12,365 Commercial real estate — 2,900 2,900 — 3,166 3,166 Construction and land development 2,424 — 2,424 7,476 — 7,476 Residential real estate lending 175 973 1,148 13,469 2,018 15,487 $ 6,102 $ 13,502 $ 19,604 $ 24,997 $ 13,497 $ 38,494 The financial effects of TDRs granted for the year ended December 31, 2022 are as follows: Weighted Average Interest Rate (In thousands) Number Recorded Pre-Modification Post-Modification Charge-off Commercial and industrial 2 $ 8,171 6.79 % 6.79 % $ — Commercial real estate 4 10,647 3.85 % 3.85 % — 6 $ 18,818 5.13 % 5.13 % $ — The financial effects of TDRs granted for the year ended December 31, 2021 are as follows: Weighted Average Interest Rate (In thousands) Number Recorded Pre-Modification Post-Modification Charge-off Commercial and industrial 1 $ 2,536 6.50 % 4.00 % $ — Construction and land development 2 7,477 4.30 % 4.30 % — 3 $ 10,013 4.86 % 4.22 % $ — The following tables summarize the Company’s loan portfolio by credit quality indicator as of December 31, 2022: (In thousands) Pass Special Mention Substandard Doubtful Total Commercial and industrial $ 893,637 $ 6,983 $ 23,275 $ 1,746 $ 925,641 Multifamily 947,661 13,696 6,164 — 967,521 Commercial real estate 299,953 24,679 10,501 — 335,133 Construction and land development 21,270 14,002 2,424 — 37,696 Residential real estate lending 1,369,972 — 1,807 — 1,371,779 Consumer and other 462,415 — 1,584 — 463,999 Total loans $ 3,994,908 $ 59,360 $ 45,755 $ 1,746 $ 4,101,769 The following tables summarize the Company’s loan portfolio by credit quality indicator as of December 31, 2021: (In thousands) Pass Special Mention Substandard Doubtful Total Commercial and industrial $ 693,312 $ 10,165 $ 25,908 $ — $ 729,385 Multifamily 721,869 48,804 51,128 — 821,801 Commercial real estate 295,261 13,947 60,221 — 369,429 Construction and land development 24,063 — 7,476 — 31,539 Residential real estate lending 1,050,865 292 12,525 — 1,063,682 Consumer and other 291,398 — 420 — 291,818 Total loans $ 3,076,768 $ 73,208 $ 157,678 $ — $ 3,307,654 The above classifications follow regulatory guidelines and can be generally described as follows: • pass loans are of satisfactory quality; • special mention loans have a potential weakness or risk that may result in the deterioration of future repayment; • substandard loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged (these loans have a well-defined weakness, and there is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss); and • doubtful loans, based on existing circumstances, have weaknesses that make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable. In addition, consumer and residential loans are classified utilizing an inter-agency methodology that incorporates the extent of delinquency. Assigned risk rating grades are continuously updated as new information is obtained.

Regulatory Capital [Abstract] | |
REGULATORY CAPITAL | REGULATORY CAPITAL The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for the Bank, the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital requirements that involve quantitative measures of the Company and the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company and the Bank’s capital amounts and classifications also are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total, tier 1, and common equity tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk weighted assets, and of tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to average assets. Management believes as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements. As of December 31, 2022, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well capitalized,” the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, tier 1 risk-based, common equity tier 1 risk-based, tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. Since that notification, there are no conditions or events that management believes have changed the institution’s category. The Company’s actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table: Actual For Capital Adequacy Purposes (1) To Be Considered (In thousands) Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio December 31, 2022 Total capital to risk weighted assets $ 721,324 14.87 % $ 387,957 8.00 % N/A N/A Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets 597,022 12.31 % 290,967 6.00 % N/A N/A Tier 1 capital to average assets 597,022 7.52 % 317,738 4.00 % N/A N/A Common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets 597,022 12.31 % 218,226 4.50 % N/A N/A December 31, 2021 Total capital to risk weighted assets $ 656,719 15.95 % $ 329,471 8.00 % N/A N/A Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets 534,381 12.98 % 247,103 6.00 % N/A N/A Tier 1 capital to average assets 534,381 7.62 % 280,454 4.00 % N/A N/A Common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets 534,381 12.98 % 185,327 4.50 % N/A N/A (1) Amounts are shown exclusive of the applicable capital conservation buffer of 2.50%.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities result from temporary differences between the carrying value of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and for income tax return purposes. These assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are currently in effect and are reported net in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The significant components of the net deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, are as follows: December 31, 2022 2021 (In thousands) Deferred tax assets: Excess tax basis over carrying value of assets: Allowance for loan losses $ 13,237 $ 16,300 Nonaccrual interest income 106 389 Postretirement and other employee benefits 1,563 242 Available for sale securities carried at fair value for financial statement purposes 36,330 — Depreciation and amortization 1,418 1,123 Operating leases 10,976 13,250 Federal, state and local net operating loss carryforward 4,468 7,285 Transfer of available for sale securities to held-to-maturity 4,379 — Other, net 600 3,258 Gross deferred tax asset 73,077 41,847 Deferred tax liabilities: Available for sale securities carried at fair value for financial statement purposes — (2,850) Unrealized loss on investment (150) — Purchase accounting adjustments, net (676) (874) Operating leases (8,575) (10,142) Net deferred loan fees (1,169) (1,262) Gross deferred tax liabilities (10,570) (15,128) Deferred tax asset, net $ 62,507 $ 26,719 As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s deferred tax assets were valued without an allowance as management concluded that it is more likely than not that the entire amount may be realized. ASC 740, Income Taxes, provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. Management reassesses the need for a valuation allowance on an annual basis, or more frequently if warranted. If it is later determined that a valuation allowance is required, it generally will be an expense to the income tax provision in the period such determination is made. The Company has no uncertain tax positions. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to Federal, New York State, California, Colorado, District of Columbia, Florida, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia and New York City income taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination; with a tax examination presumably to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. As of December 31, 2022, the Company is generally subject to possible examination by federal, state, and local taxing authorities for 2019 and subsequent tax years. Income tax receivable, which is included in other assets, totaled $12.1 million and $20.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS The Company offers various pension and retirement benefit plans, as well as a long-term incentive plan to eligible employees and directors. Significant benefit plans are described as follows: Pension Plan The Company participates in a multi-employer non-contributory pension plan which covers substantially all full-time employees, both unionized and non-unionized. Employees generally qualify for participation in the plan on the first January 1 st or July 1 st after attaining age 21 and completing 1,000 Hours of Service in a 12 consecutive month period. The collective bargaining agreement covering the unionized employees was last renewed in March 2020. Under the terms of this plan, participants vest 100% upon completion of five years of service, as defined in the plan document. Plan assets are invested in the Consolidated Retirement Fund ("CRF"). The Employer Identification Number of the CRF is 13-3177000 and the Plan Number is 001. As a multi-employer plan, the Administrator of the CRF does not make separate actuarial valuations with respect to each employer, nor are plan assets so segregated. The benefits provided by the CRF are being funded by the Company and other participating employers through contributions to the Administrator, which are necessary to maintain the CRF on a sound actuarial basis. Contributions are calculated based on a percentage of participants’ qualifying base salary, which percentage is determined from time to time by the CRF Board of Trustees. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 ("PPA") ranks the funded status of multi-employer plans depending upon a plan’s current and projected funding. A plan is in the Red Zone (Critical Status) if it has a current funded percentage (as defined) of less than 65%. A plan is in the Yellow Zone (Endangered Status) if it has a current funded percentage of less than 80%, or projects a credit balance deficit within seven years. A plan is in the Green Zone if it has a current funded percentage greater than 80% and does not have a projected credit balance deficit within seven years. For the 2022 and 2021 plan years, pursuant to the PPA, the CRF was certified to be in the Green Zone (i.e. neither Critical Status nor Endangered Status). The following table summarizes certain information regarding contributions made by the Company to the CRF: (In thousands) Contributions Company contributions greater than 5% of total contributions received by the CRF? Year Ended December 31, 2022 $ 6,321 Yes 2021 6,193 Yes 2020 6,278 Yes The amounts of contributions presented in the preceding table represent expense recorded by the Company during the respective periods and are included in Compensation and Employee Benefits expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Retirement Benefit Plans The Company offers a post-retirement health plan, a life insurance plan, and provides for two other non-qualifying supplemental retirement plan benefits; one for certain former directors, and one for certain former employees. The Company’s policy is to fund the cost of health and life benefits in amounts determined in accordance with the plan provisions. The other retirement benefit plans generally contain vesting provisions and service requirements. These plans are unfunded and represent a general obligation of the Company. The following table summarizes the plans’ benefit obligation, the changes in the plans’ benefit obligation, changes in plan assets and the plan’s funded status: Year Ended December 31, (In thousands) 2022 2021 Change in benefit obligation: Benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 3,658 $ 4,094 Service cost — — Interest cost 71 58 Amendments — — Actuarial gain (397) (16) Benefits paid (477) (478) Benefit obligation at end of year $ 2,855 $ 3,658 Change in plan assets: Employer contributions $ 477 $ 478 Benefits paid (477) (478) Plan assets at end of year $ — $ — Benefit obligation, included in other liabilities $ 2,855 $ 3,658 (In thousands) 2022 2021 2020 Net actuarial loss $ 2,572 $ 3,235 $ 3,200 Prior service credit (292) (320) (349) Total amount recognized $ 2,280 $ 2,915 $ 2,851 The following table summarizes the components of net periodic benefit cost and other amounts recognized in other comprehensive income (In thousands) 2022 2021 2020 Components of net periodic benefit cost: Service cost $ — $ — $ — Interest cost 71 58 118 Prior service credit amortization (29) (29) (29) Prior service credit due to curtailments — — — Recognized actuarial loss 267 400 320 Net periodic benefit $ 309 $ 429 $ 409 Components of other amounts: Net regular actuarial (gain) loss $ (397) $ (16) $ 379 Recognized actuarial loss (267) (400) (320) Prior service credit amortization 29 29 29 Prior service credit due to curtailments — 450 (450) Prior service credit due to amendment — — — Total recognized in other comprehensive income $ (635) $ 63 $ (362) Total recognized in comprehensive income $ (326) $ 492 $ 47 The following table summarizes certain weighted average assumptions used to measure the plans’ obligation at the end of the year as well as net periodic benefit expense during the year: 2022 2021 2020 Weighted average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations: Discount rate 4.75 % 2.07 % 1.50 % Weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost: Discount rate 2.14 % 1.66 % 3.13 % The net actuarial loss and prior service credit that is expected to be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and into net periodic (benefit) expense during the year ended December 31, 2023 is $0.2 million. Future estimated benefit payments are expected to be approximately $0.3 million per annum during the period 2023 through 2031. 401(k) Plans The Company also offers 2 retirement savings plans which are qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code ("401(k) Plan"). Substantially all employees are eligible to participate, and participants can contribute up to 15% of their salary subject to certain limitations. The Company does not make contributions to the 401(k) Plan and as such does not incur any direct compensation expense related to the 401(k) Plan. Long Term Incentive Plans Stock Options: The Company has granted stock options in previous years to employees and directors. As of December 31, 2020, all options have vested and are exercisable at the option of the vested holders until the termination of each tranche after 10 years from the grant date or earlier if the employee or director has changed their employment status. The Company does not currently have an active stock option plan that is available for issuing new options. A summary of the status of the Company’s options as of December 31, 2022 follows: Number of Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Outstanding, December 31, 2021 847,560 $ 13.19 4.3 years Granted — — — Forfeited/ Expired (18,260) 12.69 — Exercised (402,420) 13.31 — Outstanding, December 31, 2022 426,880 13.09 3.3 years $ 4,246 Vested and Exercisable, December 31, 2022 426,880 $ 13.09 3.3 years $ 4,246 The range of exercise prices is $11.00 to $14.65 per share. There were no options compensation costs to employees and directors for the year ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 as all options had been fully expensed as of December 31, 2020. Total options compensation costs for the year ended 2020 was $0.7 million, and is recorded within compensation and employee benefits expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The fair value of all awards outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $4.2 million and $2.9 million, respectively. No cash was received for options exercised in the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company repurchased 310,176 shares and 920,948 shares for options exercised in the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Restricted Stock Units: The Amalgamated Financial Corp. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plan”) provides for the grant of stock-based incentive awards to employees and directors of the Company. The number of shares of common stock of the Company available for stock-based awards in the Equity Plan is 1,250,000 of which 434,907 shares were available for issuance as of December 31, 2022. Restricted stock units ("RSUs") represent an obligation to deliver shares to an employee or director at a future date if certain vesting conditions are met. RSUs are subject to a time-based vesting schedule, the satisfaction of performance conditions, or the satisfaction of market conditions, and are settled in shares of the Company’s common stock. RSUs do not provide dividend equivalent rights from the date of grant and do not provide voting rights. RSUs accrue dividends based on dividends paid on common shares, but those dividends are paid in cash upon satisfaction of the specified vesting requirements on the underlying RSU. A summary of the status of the Company’s time-based vesting RSUs as of December 31, 2022 follows: Shares Grant Date Fair Value Unvested, December 31, 2021 326,521 $ 15.66 Awarded 193,339 19.31 Forfeited/Expired (42,885) 15.69 Vested (145,952) 15.83 Unvested, December 31, 2022 331,023 $ 17.72 A summary of the status of the Company’s performance-based RSUs as of December 31, 2022 follows: Shares Grant Date Fair Value Unvested, December 31, 2021 103,774 $ 15.84 Awarded 62,794 17.69 Forfeited/Expired (46,137) 16.18 Vested (23,461) 17.91 Unvested, December 31, 2022 96,970 $ 16.37 During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company granted 16,536, 14,376 and 866 performance-based RSUs at a fair value of $17.34, $17.39 and $21.64 per share, respectively which vest subject to the achievement of the Company’s corporate goal for the three-year period from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The corporate goal is based on the Company achieving a target increase in Tangible Book Value, adjusted for certain factors. The minimum and maximum awards that are achievable are 0 and 47,667 shares, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company granted 31,016 market-based RSUs at a fair value of $17.91 per share which vest subject to the Bank’s relative total shareholder return compared to a group of peer banks over a three-year period from February 3, 2022 to February 2, 2025. The minimum and maximum awards that are achievable are 0 and 46,524 shares, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the Company reserved 145,455 shares for issuance upon vesting of performance-based RSUs assuming the Company’s employees achieve the maximum share payout. The Company repurchased 54,191 shares and 21,624 shares for RSUs vested in the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Of the 427,993 unvested RSUs as of December 31, 2022, the minimum units that will vest, solely due to a service test, are 331,023. The maximum units that will vest, assuming the highest payout on performance and market-based units, are 476,478. Compensation expense attributable to the employee RSUs was $2.2 million, $1.8 million, and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. The Company recorded an expense of $0.5 million, $0.3 million, and $0.5 million attributable to RSUs granted to directors for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, there was $4.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the non-vested RSUs granted to employees and directors. This expense may increase or decrease depending on the expected number of performance-based shares to be issued. This expense is expected to be recognized over 2.1 years. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assumptions are developed based on prioritizing information within a fair value hierarchy that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data. A description of the disclosure hierarchy and the types of financial instruments recorded at fair value that management believes would generally qualify for each category are as follows: Level 1 - Valuations are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Accordingly, valuation of these assets and liabilities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. Examples include most U.S. Government securities and exchange-traded equity securities. Level 2 - Valuations are based on either quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or significant inputs to the methodology that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Financial instruments in this level would generally include mortgage-related securities and other debt issued by GSEs, non-GSE mortgage-related securities, corporate debt, certain redeemable fund investments and certain trust preferred securities. Level 3 - Valuations are based on inputs to the methodology that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets and liabilities. Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Available for sale securities The Company’s available for sale securities are reported at fair value. Investments in fixed income securities are generally valued based on evaluations provided by an independent pricing service. These evaluations represent an exit price or their opinion as to what a buyer would pay for a security, typically in an institutional round lot position, in a current sale. The pricing service utilizes evaluated pricing techniques that vary by asset class and incorporate available market information and, because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, applies available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of available securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing. Model processes, such as option adjusted spread models, are used to value securities that have prepayment features. In those limited cases where pricing service evaluations are not available for a fixed income security, management will typically value those instruments using observable market inputs in a discounted cash flow analysis. The following summarizes those financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of the dates indicated, categorized by the relevant class of investment and level of the fair value hierarchy: December 31, 2022 (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Available for sale securities: Mortgage-related: GSE residential CMOs $ — $ 389,260 $ — $ 389,260 GSE commercial certificates & CMO — 213,786 — 213,786 Non-GSE residential certificates — 107,080 — 107,080 Non-GSE commercial certificates — 97,482 — 97,482 Other debt: U.S. Treasury 192 — — 192 ABS — 862,163 — 862,163 Trust preferred — 10,143 — 10,143 Corporate — 132,370 — 132,370 Total assets carried at fair value $ 192 $ 1,812,284 $ — $ 1,812,476 December 31, 2021 (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Available for sale securities: Mortgage-related: GSE residential certificates $ — $ 3,967 $ — $ 3,967 GSE residential CMOs — 463,883 — 463,883 GSE commercial certificates & CMO — 370,364 — 370,364 Non-GSE residential certificates — 66,139 — 66,139 Non-GSE commercial certificates — 81,101 — 81,101 Other Debt: U.S. Treasury 200 — — 200 ABS — 989,188 — 989,188 Trust preferred — 14,147 — 14,147 Corporate — 124,421 — 124,421 Total assets carried at fair value $ 200 $ 2,113,210 $ — $ 2,113,410 During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers of financial instruments between Level 1 and Level 2. There were no financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and categorized as Level 3 in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. That is, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances. Impaired loans Fair values for loans considered impaired are based on discounted cash flows using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral in the case of collateral dependent loans. The methods used to estimate the fair value of loans are extremely sensitive to the assumptions and estimates used. While management has attempted to use assumptions and estimates that best reflect the Company’s loan portfolio and current market conditions, a greater degree of subjectivity is inherent in these values than in those determined in active markets. Other real estate owned Other real estate owned, representing property acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, are carried at fair value less estimated disposal costs of the acquired property. Fair value on other real estate owned is based on the appraised value of the collateral using discount rates or capitalization rates similar to those used in impaired loan valuation. The following tables summarize assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of the dates indicated, categorized by the relevant class of investment and level of the fair value hierarchy: December 31, 2022 (In thousands) Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Estimated Fair Value Fair Value Measurements: Impaired loans $ 3,315 $ — $ — $ 3,315 $ 3,315 $ 3,315 $ — $ — $ 3,315 $ 3,315 December 31, 2021 (In thousands) Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Estimated Fair Value Fair Value Measurements: Impaired loans $ 48,111 $ — $ — $ 48,111 $ 48,111 Other real estate owned $ 307 $ — $ — $ 335 $ 335 $ 48,418 $ — $ — $ 48,446 $ 48,446 Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value A description of the methods, factors and significant assumptions utilized in estimating the fair values for significant categories of financial instruments not measured at fair value follows: • Held-to-maturity securities – Investments in fixed income securities are generally valued based on evaluations provided by an independent pricing service. These evaluations represent an exit price or their opinion as to what a buyer would pay for a security, typically in an institutional round lot position, in a current sale. The pricing service utilizes evaluated pricing techniques that vary by asset class and incorporate available market information and, because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, applies available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of available securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing. Model processes, such as option adjusted spread models, are used to value securities that have prepayment features. In those limited cases where pricing service evaluations are not available for a fixed income security, management will typically value those instruments using observable market inputs in a discounted cash flow analysis. Held-to-maturity securities, with the exception of PACE securities which are categorized as Level 3, are generally categorized as Level 2. • Loans held for sale – Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. The fair value of loans held for sale is determined using the price we expect to receive for the loans based on commitments received from third party investors. Loans held on our balance sheet greater than 90 days are evaluated to determine if a valuation allowance is required to adjust for a decline in fair value below the carrying amount, and then subject to quarterly evaluation going forward. Loans held for sale are generally categorized as Level 3. • Loans receivable – Loans are valued using a present value technique that incorporates management’s assumptions as to what a market participant would assume given the attributes of the loans. The observable U.S. Treasury yield curve is a significant input to the valuation. Assumptions, including prepayment speeds and credit spreads, are based on observable market data where possible or alternatively are based on terms currently offered on loans to borrowers of similar credit quality. The methods used to estimate the fair value of loans are extremely sensitive to the assumptions and estimates used. While management has attempted to use assumptions and estimates that best reflect the Company’s loan portfolio and current market conditions, a greater degree of subjectivity is inherent in these values than in those determined in active markets. Loans would generally be categorized as Level 3. • Resell agreements – Resell agreements are carried at fair value, as these are short term agreements. All existing trades are done at the current rate for new trades, so there is no market value adjustment. The agreements are generally categorized as Level 3, as we have limited market information. • Deposits – Deposits without a defined maturity date are valued at the amount payable on demand, and are categorized as Level 2. Certificates of deposit, which are categorized as Level 2, are valued using a present value technique that incorporates current rates offered by the Company for certificates of comparable remaining maturity. • FHLBNY Advances – FHLBNY advances are valued using a present value technique that incorporates current rates offered by the FHLBNY for advances of comparable remaining maturity. FHLBNY advances are categorized as Level 2. • Subordinated debt – Bank issued subordinated debt is valued based on recent trades for similar issues and or values provided by firms that transact in our bonds. Subordinated debt is categorized as Level 2. • Other – The Company holds or issues other financial instruments for which management considers the carrying value to approximate fair value. Such items include cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable and payable. Many of these items are short term in nature with minimal risk characteristics. For those financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial condition, but are measured at fair value for disclosure purposes, management follows the same fair value measurement principles and guidance as for instruments recorded at fair value. There are significant limitations in estimating the fair value of financial instruments for which an active market does not exist. Due to the degree of management judgment that is often required, such estimates tend to be subjective, sensitive to changes in assumptions and imprecise. Such estimates are made as of a point in time and are impacted by then-current observable market conditions; also such estimates do not give consideration to transaction costs or tax effects if estimated unrealized gains or losses were to become realized in the future. Because of inherent uncertainties of valuation, the estimated fair value may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a ready market for the investment existed and the difference could be material. Lastly, consideration is not given to nonfinancial instruments, including various intangible assets, which could represent substantial value. Fair value estimates are not necessarily representative of the Company’s total enterprise value.

COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND OFF BALANCE SHEET RISK | COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND OFF BALANCE SHEET RISK Credit Commitments The Company is party to various credit related financial instruments with off balance sheet risk. The Company, in the normal course of business, issues such financial instruments in order to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk as of the related periods: December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 (In thousands) Commitments to extend credit $ 723,902 $ 927,428 Standby letters of credit 29,568 18,752 Total $ 753,470 $ 946,180 Commitments to extend credit are contracts to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. These commitments have fixed expiration dates and other termination clauses and generally require the payment of nonrefundable fees. Since a portion of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the contractual principal amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. These instruments represent ultimate exposure to credit risk only to the extent they are subsequently drawn upon by customers. Standby letters of credit are conditional lending commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the financial performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The balance sheet carrying value of standby letters of credit approximates any nonrefundable fees received but not yet recorded as income. The Company considers this carrying value, which is not material, to approximate the estimated fair value of these financial instruments. The Company reserves for the credit risk inherent in off balance sheet credit commitments. This reserve, which is included in other liabilities, amounted to approximately $1.6 million as of December 31, 2022 and $1.5 million as of December 31, 2021. Other Commitments and Contingencies In the ordinary course of business, there are various legal proceedings pending against the Company. Based on the opinion of counsel, management believes that the aggregate liabilities, if any, arising from such actions would not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. Investment Obligations The Company is party to agreements with Pace Funding Group LLC, which operates Home Run Financing, for the purchase of property assessed clean energy, or PACE, assessment securities until the end of July 2023. These investments are to be held in the Company's held-to-maturity investment portfolio. As of December 31, 2022, we had purchased $451.7 million of PACE assessment securities from Pace Funding Group LLC and had a remaining commitment of $150.0 million. Separately, the Company is party to agreements with Petros PACE Finance for the purchase of PACE assessment securities until February 16, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, we had purchased $53.5 million of these obligations and had an estimated remaining commitment of $14.3 million. The PACE assessments have equal-lien priority with property taxes and generally rank senior to first lien mortgages. These investments are currently held in the Company's held-to-maturity investment portfolio. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
LEASES | LEASES The Company as a lessee has operating leases primarily consisting of real estate arrangements where the Company operates its headquarters, branches and business production offices. All leases identified as in scope are accounted for as operating leases as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. These leases are typically long-term leases and generally are not complicated arrangements or structures. Several of the leases contain renewal options at a rate comparable to the fair market value based on comparable analysis to similar properties in the Company’s geographies. Real estate operating leases are presented as a right-of-use asset and a related operating lease liability on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The ROU asset represents the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and the operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The Company applied its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate to the remaining lease payments to derive a present value calculation for initial measurement of the operating lease liability. The IBR reflects the interest rate the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term for an amount equal to the lease payments. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] | |
GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS | GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill In accordance with GAAP, the Company performs an annual test as of June 30 to identify potential impairment of goodwill, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment may exist. If the carrying amount of the Company, as a sole reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess up to the amount of the recorded goodwill. The Company performed its annual test based upon market data as of June 30, 2022 and estimates and assumptions that the Company believes most appropriate for the analysis. Based on the qualitative analysis performed in accordance with ASC 350, the Company determined it more likely than not that goodwill was not impaired as of June 30, 2022. Changes in certain assumptions used in the Company's assessment could result in significant differences in the results of the impairment test. Should market conditions or management’s assumptions change significantly in the future, an impairment to goodwill is possible. At December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying amount of goodwill was $12.9 million. Intangible Assets The following table reflects the estimated amortization expense, comprised entirely by the Company’s core deposit intangible asset, for the next five years and thereafter: (In thousands) Total 2023 $ 888 2024 730 2025 574 2026 419 2027 265 Thereafter 229 Total $ 3,105 Accumulated amortization of the core deposit intangible was $5.9 million as of December 31, 2022. Amortization expense recognized on the core deposit intangible was $1.0 million, $1.2 million, and $1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, December 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively. |

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES | VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES Tax Credit Investments The Company makes investments in unconsolidated entities that construct, own and operate solar generation facilities. An unrelated third party is the managing member and has control over the significant activities of the variable interest entities ("VIE"). The Company generates a return through the receipt of tax credits allocated to the projects, as well as operational distributions. The primary risk of loss is generally mitigated by policies requiring that the project qualify for the expected tax credits prior to the Company making its investment. Any loans to the VIE are secured. As of December 31, 2022, the Company's maximum exposure to loss is $64.2 million.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN_2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2022 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Accounting | The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States of America, or GAAP and predominant practices within the banking industry. The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting for financial statement purposes. |
Consolidation | The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned and wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates | The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In particular, estimates and assumptions are used in measuring the fair value of certain financial instruments, determining the appropriateness of the allowance for loan and lease losses (“allowance”), evaluating potential other-than-temporary securities impairment, assessing the ability to realize deferred tax assets, and the valuation of share-based payment awards. Estimates and assumptions are based on available information and judgment; therefore actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash | For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash include cash, due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and federal funds sold with original maturities of three months or less. The Company had $0.4 million and $0.4 million in restricted cash as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively and is included in total cash and cash equivalents on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company’s restricted cash reflects funds held in other financial institutions to secure business operating rights or contractually obligated minimum account funding requirements. |
Securities | Purchases of investments in debt securities are designated as either trading, available for sale or held-to-maturity depending on the intent and ability to hold the securities. The initial designation is made at the time of purchase. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no securities designated as trading. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with any net unrealized appreciation or depreciation in fair value reported net of taxes as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Debt securities held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost provided management does not have the intent to sell these securities and does not anticipate that it will be necessary to sell these securities before the full recovery of principal and interest, which may be at maturity. The Company reported its investments in "Property Assessed Clean Energy" ("PACE") assessments as held-to-maturity securities. Management conducts a periodic evaluation of securities available for sale and held-to-maturity to determine if the amortized cost basis of a security has been other-than-temporarily impaired ("OTTI"). The evaluation of other-than-temporary impairment is a quantitative and qualitative process, which is subject to risks and uncertainties. If the amortized cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, management evaluates, among other factors, general market conditions, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than amortized cost, the probability of a near-term recovery in value, whether management intends to sell the security and whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before full recovery of the investment or maturity. Management also considers specific adverse conditions related to the financial health, projected cash flow and business outlook for the investee, including industry and sector performance, operational and financing cash flow factors and rating agency actions. For debt investment securities deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the investment is written down to fair value with the estimated credit loss charged to current earnings and the noncredit-related impairment loss charged to other comprehensive income. If market, industry and/or investee conditions deteriorate, the Company may incur future impairments. Premiums (discounts) on debt securities are amortized (accreted) to income using the level yield method to the contractual maturity date adjusted for actual prepayment experience. Realized gains and losses on sale of securities are determined using the specific identification method and are reported in non-interest income. |
Loans Held for Sale | Loans held for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to current earnings. Gains or losses resulting from sales of loans held for sale, net of unamortized deferred fees and costs, are recognized at the time of sale and are included in other non-interest income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company had $7.9 million and $3.3 million of loans classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. |
Loans and Loan Interest Income Recognition | Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of charge-offs, deferred origination costs and fees and purchase premiums and discounts. Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct and indirect costs incurred in connection with loan originations are deferred and amortized to income over the life of the related loans as an adjustment to yield. Premiums or discounts on purchased portfolios are amortized or accreted to income using the level yield method. Interest on loans is generally recognized on the accrual basis. Interest is not accrued on loans that are more than 90 days delinquent on payments, and any interest that was accrued but unpaid on such loans is reversed from interest income at that time, or when deemed to be uncollectible. Interest subsequently received on such loans is recorded as interest income or alternatively as a reduction in the amortized cost of the loan if there is significant doubt as to the collectability of the unpaid principal balance. Loans are returned to accrual status when principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the contractual terms. Individual loans which are deemed to be impaired are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral net of estimated selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent. Individual loan impairment evaluation is generally limited to multifamily, commercial real estate ("CRE"), commercial and industrial ("C&I"), construction and certain restructured residential real estate loans. Smaller balance loans including home equity lines of credit ("HELOCs"), consumer and student loans, as well as non-restructured residential real estate loans, are considered homogeneous. When assessing homogenous loans for impairment, the Company considers regulatory guidance concerning the classification and management of retail credits. The aggregate amount of individually and collectively measured loan impairment is included as a component of the allowance. Loans are considered troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and is afforded a concession by the Company, such as, but not limited to: (i) payment deferral; (ii) a reduction of the stated interest rate for the remaining contractual life of the loan; (iii) an extension of the loan’s original contractual term at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for a new loan with similar risk; (iv) capitalization of interest; or (v) forgiveness of principal or interest. Generally, TDRs are placed on nonaccrual status (and reported as non-performing loans) until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. A TDR loan is considered impaired. A loan extended or renewed at a stated interest rate equal to the market interest rate for new debt with similar risk is not considered to be a TDR. In accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations, no allowance is brought forward on any of the loans we acquire. For purchased non-credit impaired loans, credit and interest rate discounts representing the principal losses expected over the life of the loan are a component of the initial fair value and the total combined discount is accreted to interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the method used to evaluate the sufficiency of the discount is similar to organic loans, and if necessary, additional reserves are recognized in the allowance. |
Allowance for Loan Losses | The allowance for loan and lease losses (“allowance”) is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. The Company monitors its entire loan portfolio on a regular basis and considers numerous factors including (i) end-of-period loan levels and portfolio composition, (ii) observable trends in non-performing loans, (iii) the Company’s historical loan loss experience, (iv) known and inherent risks in the portfolio, (v) underwriting practices, (vi) adverse situations which may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, (vii) the estimated value and sufficiency of any underlying collateral, (viii) credit risk grading assessments, (ix) loan impairment, and (x) economic conditions. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. Additions to the allowance are charged to expense, and realized losses, net of recoveries, are charged to the allowance. Based on the determination of management, the overall level of allowance is periodically adjusted to account for the inherent and specific risks within the entire portfolio. Based on review of the classified loans and the overall allowance levels as they relate to the entire loan portfolio at December 31, 2022, management believes the allowance is adequate. Generally, a loan is considered for charge-off when it is in default of either principal or interest after 90 days or more. In addition to delinquency criteria, other triggering events may include, but are not limited to, notice of bankruptcy by the borrower or guarantor, death of the borrower, and deficiency balance from the sale of collateral. Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit, and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, often including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment. An allowance is calculated and recorded in other liabilities within the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions or reductions to the allowance may be necessary due to changes in one or more evaluation factors; management’s assumptions as to rates of default, loss or recovery, or management’s intent with regard to disposition. A shift in lending strategy may warrant a change in the allowance due to a changing credit risk profile. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of the examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to, or charge-offs against, the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examination. |
Other Real Estate Owned | Other real estate owned (“OREO”) properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are recorded initially at fair value less costs to sell. Any write-down of the recorded investment in the related loan is charged to the allowance prior to transfer. OREO assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through non-interest income. Costs relating to the development and improvement of other real estate owned are capitalized. Costs relating to holding other real estate owned, including real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance, are charged to expense as incurred. The balance of OREO was $0 at both December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets | Goodwill resulting from business combinations is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate the carrying amount of the asset may be impaired. The Company elected June 30 as the annual date for impairment testing. Other intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Core deposit intangible assets are amortized on an accelerated method over their estimated useful lives of ten years. |
Premises and Equipment | Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation of furniture, fixtures, and equipment is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Furniture and fixtures are generally depreciated over ten years. Equipment, computer hardware and computer software are normally depreciated over three |
Leases | The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception. For leases with terms greater than twelve months under which the Company is lessee, right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recorded at the commencement date. Lease liabilities are initially recorded based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets are initially recorded at the amount of the associated lease liabilities plus prepaid lease payments and initial direct costs, less any lease incentives received. The cost of short term leases is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term. The lease term includes options to extend if the exercise of those options is reasonably certain and includes termination options if there is reasonable certainty the options will not be exercised. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) as the discount rate to the remaining lease payments to derive a present value calculation for initial measurement of lease liabilities. The IBR reflects the interest rate the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term for an amount equal to the lease payments. Leases are classified as financing or operating leases at commencement. All of the Company's leases are classified as operating leases as of December 31, 2022. Operating lease cost is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight line basis over the lease terms. Variable lease costs are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those costs is incurred. |
Bank-Owned Life Insurance | The Company invests in bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”). BOLI involves the purchase of life insurance policies by the Company on a chosen group of employees. The Company is the owner and beneficiary of the policies. The insurance and earnings thereon is used to offset a portion of future employee benefit costs. BOLI is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. Earnings from BOLI, as well as changes in cash surrender value, are recognized as non-interest income. |
Advertising Costs | The Company expenses advertising and promotion costs as incurred. |
Income Taxes | There are two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense (benefit) approximates cash to be paid (refunded) for income taxes for the applicable period. Deferred income tax expense (benefit) results from differences between assets and liabilities measured for financial reporting and for income-tax return purposes. The Company records as a deferred tax asset on its Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition an amount equal to the tax credit and tax loss carry-forwards and tax deductions (tax benefits) that we believe will be available to us to offset or reduce the amounts of our income taxes in future periods. Under applicable federal and state income tax laws and regulations, such tax benefits will expire if not used within specified periods of time. Accordingly, the ability to fully utilize our deferred tax asset may depend on the amount of taxable income that we generate during those time periods. At least once each year, or more frequently, if warranted, we make estimates of future taxable income that we believe we are likely to generate during those future periods. If we conclude, on the basis of those estimates and the amount of the tax benefits available to us, that it is more likely than not that we will be able to fully utilize those tax benefits prior to their expiration, we recognize the deferred tax asset in full on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. If, however, we conclude on the basis of those estimates and the amount of the tax benefits available to us that it has become more likely than not that we will be unable to utilize those tax benefits in full prior to their expiration, then we would establish (or increase any existing) a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax asset on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition to the amount which we believe we are more likely than not to be able to utilize. Such a reduction is implemented by recognizing a non-cash charge that would have the effect of increasing the provision, or reducing any benefit, for income taxes that we would otherwise have recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The determination of whether and the extent to which we will be able to utilize our deferred tax asset involves management judgments and assumptions that are subject to period-to-period changes as a result of changes in tax laws, changes in the market, or economic conditions that could affect our operating results or variances between our actual operating results and our projected operating results, as well as other factors. When measuring the amount of current taxes to be paid (or refunded) management considers the merit of various tax treatments in the context of statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance. Management also considers results of recent tax audits and historical experience. While management considers the amount of income taxes payable (or receivable) to be appropriate based on information currently available, future additions or reductions to such amounts may be necessary due to unanticipated events or changes in circumstances. Management has not taken, and does not expect to take, any position in a tax return which it deems to be uncertain. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The deferral method of accounting is used for investments that generate investment tax credits. Under this method, the investment tax credits are recognized as a reduction of the related asset. Contributions made by the Company are recognized as an increase of the related asset, and distributions are recognized as a reduction. Income and loss generated by the investment is recognized as a corresponding increase or reduction in the related asset. |
Post-Retirement Benefit Plans | The Company sponsors several post-retirement benefit plans for current and former employees and certain directors. Contributions to the trustee of a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan are recorded as expense in the period of contribution. Plan obligations and related expenses for other post retirement plans are calculated using actuarial methodologies. The measurement of such obligations and expenses requires management to make certain assumptions, in particular the discount rate, which is evaluated on an annual basis. Other factors include retirement patterns, mortality and turnover assumptions. The Company uses a December 31 measurement date for its post retirement benefit plans. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 715-30 “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – Pension” requires the Company to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial condition and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year the changes occur through comprehensive income. |
Comprehensive Income | Comprehensive income includes net income and all other changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive income includes income, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are reported net of deferred income taxes. Accumulated other comprehensive income for the Company includes unrealized holding gains or losses on available for sale securities, and actuarial gains or losses on the Company’s pension plans. FASB ASC 715‑30 “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – Pension” requires employers to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year the changes occur through comprehensive income. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-based compensation is recorded in accordance with FASB ASC No. 718, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” which requires the Company to record compensation cost for stock options and restricted stock granted to employees and directors in return for employee service. The cost is measured at the fair value of the options and restricted stock when granted, and this cost is expensed over the service period, which is normally the vesting period of the options and restricted stock. Forfeitures of options and restricted stock result in a retirement of the related award and a reversal of the cost previously incurred. The Company grants time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that are subject to a time-based vesting schedule, and performance-based RSUs that are subject to the achievement of the Company's corporate goals. The Company's stock-based compensation plans are further described in Note 13, Employee Benefit Plans. |
Variable Interest Entities | The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The Company considers a voting rights entity to be a subsidiary and consolidates if the Company has a controlling financial interest in the entity. VIEs are consolidated if the Company has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that significantly impact financial performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE (i.e., the Company is the primary beneficiary). Investments in VIEs where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of a VIE are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE is reassessed on an ongoing basis. The consolidation status may change as a result of these reassessments. These investments are included in Equity Investments in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The maximum potential exposure to losses relative to investments in VIEs is generally limited to the sum of the outstanding balance, future funding commitments and any related loans to the entity, both funded and unfunded. Loans to these entities are underwritten in substantially the same manner as other loans and are generally secured. Additional disclosures regarding VIEs are further described in Note 18, Variable Interest Entities. |
Resell Agreements | The Company enters into short-term resell agreements backed by residential first-lien mortgage loans. The Company obtains possession of collateral with a market value equal to or in excess of the principal amount loaned under resell agreements. The Company had $25.8 million and $229.0 million in resell agreements as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The resell agreements were entered into at par, and earned $4.2 million, $1.9 million, and $0.8 million in interest income for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 , respectively. Interest income on resell agreements is reported on the "securities interest income" line of the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Segment Information | Public companies are required to report certain financial information about significant revenue-producing segments of the business for which such information is available and utilized by the chief operating decision maker. Substantially all of our operations occur through the Bank and involve the delivery of loan and deposit products to customers. Management makes operating decisions and assesses performance based on an ongoing review of its banking operation, which constitutes our only operating segment for financial reporting purposes. We do not consider our trust and investment management business as a separate segment. Transfers of Financial Assets Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Company, the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. |
Reclassifications | Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Accounting Standards Effective in 2022 and onward In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model and provides for recording credit losses on available for sale debt securities through an allowance account. ASU 2016-13 also requires certain incremental disclosures. In October 2019, the FASB voted to extend the adoption date for entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies, public business entities ("PBEs") that are not SEC filers, and entities that are not PBEs from January 1, 2020 to January 1, 2023. Based on the Company's election as an Emerging Growth Company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act to use the extended transition period for complying with any new or revised financial accounting standards, we will adopt the standard on January 1, 2023. The Company’s CECL implementation efforts are continuing to focus on completion of model validation, developing new disclosures, establishing formal policies and procedures and other governance and control documentation. Based on the Company’s portfolio balances and forecasted economic conditions as of January 1, 2023, management believes the adoption of the CECL standard will result in a material increase to its total current reserves. However, the ultimate amount of the increase will be contingent upon continued validation of our model, testing and refinement of the model methodologies and judgments utilized to determine the estimate. Based on implementation progress to date, the Company believes the capital adequacy requirements to which it and the Bank are subject to, and its business strategies and practices, will not be materially impacted following the adoption on January 1, 2023. The Company measured its allowance under its current incurred loan loss model as of December 31, 2022. On March 31, 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, which eliminates the troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") accounting model for creditors that have adopted Topic 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” Specifically, rather than applying the recognition and measurement guidance for TDRs, this ASU requires entities to evaluate receivable modifications, consistent with the accounting for other loan modifications, to determine whether a modification made to a borrower results is a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. In addition, under the new ASU, entities are no longer required to use a discounted cash flow ("DCF") method to measure the ACL as a result of a modification or restructuring with a borrower experiencing financial difficulty. If a DCF method is used, the post-modification-derived effective interest rate is to be used, instead of the original interest rate as stipulated under the current GAAP. This ASU also enhances the disclosure requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. This ASU amends the guidance on “vintage disclosures” to require the disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination. The Company will continue to apply the current TDR accounting model until the adoption of ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) on January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's operating results or financial condition. On January 7, 2021, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. The new guidance amends the scope of ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which was aimed at easing the potential accounting burden expected when global capital markets move away from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") (the benchmark interest rate banks use to make short-term loans to each other) and provided temporary, optional expedients and exceptions for applying accounting guidance to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assumptions are developed based on prioritizing information within a fair value hierarchy that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data. A description of the disclosure hierarchy and the types of financial instruments recorded at fair value that management believes would generally qualify for each category are as follows: Level 1 - Valuations are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Accordingly, valuation of these assets and liabilities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. Examples include most U.S. Government securities and exchange-traded equity securities. Level 2 - Valuations are based on either quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or significant inputs to the methodology that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Financial instruments in this level would generally include mortgage-related securities and other debt issued by GSEs, non-GSE mortgage-related securities, corporate debt, certain redeemable fund investments and certain trust preferred securities. Level 3 - Valuations are based on inputs to the methodology that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets and liabilities. Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Available for sale securities The Company’s available for sale securities are reported at fair value. Investments in fixed income securities are generally valued based on evaluations provided by an independent pricing service. These evaluations represent an exit price or their opinion as to what a buyer would pay for a security, typically in an institutional round lot position, in a current sale. The pricing service utilizes evaluated pricing techniques that vary by asset class and incorporate available market information and, because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, applies available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of available securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing. Model processes, such as option adjusted spread models, are used to value securities that have prepayment features. In those limited cases where pricing service evaluations are not available for a fixed income security, management will typically value those instruments using observable market inputs in a discounted cash flow analysis. |
