Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Wells Fargo Company is a diversified financial services company. We provide banking, insurance, investments, mortgage banking, investment banking, retail banking, brokerage, and consumer finance through banking stores, the internet and other distribution channels to consumers, businesses and institutions in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and in other countries. When we refer to Wells Fargo, the Company, we, our or us in this Form 10-Q, we mean Wells Fargo Company and Subsidiaries (consolidated). Wells Fargo Company (the Parent) is a financial holding company and a bank holding company. We also hold a majority interest in a real estate investment trust, which has publicly traded preferred stock outstanding. Our accounting and reporting policies conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)and practices in the financial services industry. To prepare the financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management must make estimates based on assumptions about future economic and market conditions (for example, unemployment, market liquidity, real estate prices, etc.) that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and income and expenses during the reporting period and the related disclosures. Although our estimates contemplate current conditions and how we expect them to change in the future, it is reasonably possible that in 2010 actual conditions could be worse than anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition. Management has made significant estimates in several areas, including the evaluation of other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI)on investment securities (Note 4), allowance for credit losses and purchased credit-impaired (PCI)loans (Note 5), valuing residential mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) (Notes 7 and 8) and financial instruments (Note 12), pension accounting (Note 14) and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Among other effects, such changes could result in future impairments of investment securities, increases to the allowance for loan losses, as well as increased future pension expense. The information furnished in these unaudited interim statements reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed in this Form 10-Q. The results of operations in the interim statements do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for the full year. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December31, 2009 (2009 Form 10-K). Certain amounts in the financial statements for prior years have been revised to conform with current financial statement presentation. Accounting Developments In first quarter 2010, we adopted the following accounting updates to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or Codification): |

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Business Combinations | 2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS We regularly explore opportunities to acquire financial services companies and businesses. Generally, we do not make a public announcement about an acquisition opportunity until a definitive agreement has been signed. For information on additional consideration related to acquisitions, which is considered to be a guarantee, see Note 10 in this Report. We did not complete any acquisitions in the first quarter 2010. At March31, 2010, we had one pending business combination with total assets of approximately $198million. We expect to complete this transaction during second quarter 2010. On December31, 2008, Wells Fargo acquired Wachovia Corporation (Wachovia). The purchase accounting for the Wachovia acquisition was finalized as of December31, 2009. Costs associated with involuntary employee termination, contract terminations and closing duplicate facilities were recorded throughout 2009 and allocated to the purchase price. The following table summarizes the first quarter 2010 usage of the exit reserves associated with the Wachovia acquisition. Employee Contract Facilities (in millions) termination termination related Total Balance, December31, 2009 $ 355 58 344 757 Cash payments / utilization (49 ) (13 ) (13 ) (75 ) Balance, March31, 2010 $ 306 45 331 682 |

The types of collateral we pledge include securities issued by federal agencies, government-sponsored entities (GSEs), and domestic and foreign companies. We pledged $18.6billion at March31, 2010, and $14.8billion at December31, 2009, under agreements that permit the secured parties to sell or repledge the collateral. Pledged collateral where the secured party cannot sell or repledge was $771million at March31, 2010, and $434million at December31, 2009. We receive collateral from other entities under resale agreements and securities borrowings. We received $32.6billion at March31, 2010, and $31.4billion at December31, 2009, for which we have the right to sell or repledge the collateral. These amounts include securities we have sold or repledged to others with a fair value of $31.2billion at March31, 2010, and $29.7billion at December31, 2009. |

Loans pledged where the secured party does not have the right to sell or repledge totaled $318.3billion at March31, 2010, and $312.6billion at December31, 2009. We did not have any pledged loans where the secured party has the right to sell or repledge for the same respective periods. The total allowance reflects managements estimate of credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. We consider the allowance for credit losses of $25.7billion adequate to cover credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, including unfunded credit commitments, at March 31, 2010. The allowance for credit losses consists of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded credit commitments.

Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities [Abstract] | |
Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities | 7. SECURITIZATIONS AND VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES Involvement with SPEs In the normal course of business, we enter into various types of on- and off-balance sheet transactions with special purpose entities (SPEs), which are corporations, trusts or partnerships that are established for a limited purpose. Historically, the majority of SPEs were formed in connection with securitization transactions. In a securitization transaction, assets from our balance sheet are transferred to an SPE, which then issues to investors various forms of interests in those assets and may also enter into derivative transactions. In a securitization transaction, we typically receive cash and/or other interests in an SPE as proceeds for the assets we transfer. Also, in certain transactions, we may retain the right to service the transferred receivables and to repurchase those receivables from the SPE if the outstanding balance of the receivables falls to a level where the cost exceeds the benefits of servicing such receivables. In addition, we may purchase the right to service loans in a SPE that were transferred to the SPE by a third party. In connection with our securitization activities, we have various forms of ongoing involvement with SPEs, which may include: underwriting securities issued by SPEs and subsequently making markets in those securities; providing liquidity facilities to support short-term obligations of SPEs issued to third party investors; providing credit enhancement on securities issued by SPEs or market value guarantees of assets held by SPEs through the use of letters of credit, financial guarantees, credit default swaps and total return swaps; entering into other derivative contracts with SPEs; holding senior or subordinated interests in SPEs; acting as servicer or investment manager for SPEs; and providing administrative or trustee services to SPEs. SPEs are generally considered variable interest entities (VIEs). A VIE is an entity that has either a total equity investment that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or whose equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. Under existing accounting guidance, a VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, the party that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE and a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. A variable interest is a contractual, ownership or other interest that changes with changes in the fair value of the VIEs net assets. To determine whether or not a variable interest we hold could potentially be significant to the VIE, we consider both qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of our involvement with the VIE. The classifications of assets and liabilities in our balance sheet associated with our transactions with VIEs follow: Transfers that VIEs that we VIEs we account do not that we for as secured (in millions) consolida |

We based our projections of amortization expense shown above on existing asset balances at March 31, 2010. Future amortization expense may vary from these projections. For our goodwill impairment analysis, we allocate all of the goodwill to the individual operating segments. We identify reporting units that are one level below an operating segment (referred to as a component), and distinguish these reporting units based on how the segments and components are managed, taking into consideration the economic characteristics, nature of the products and customers of the components.

Guarantees and Legal Actions [Abstract] | |
Guarantees and Legal Actions | 10. GUARANTEES AND LEGAL ACTIONS Guarantees Guarantees are contracts that contingently require us to make payments to a guaranteed party based on an event or a change in an underlying asset, liability, rate or index. Guarantees are generally in the form of standby letters of credit, securities lending and other indemnifications, liquidity agreements, written put options, recourse obligations, residual value guarantees, and contingent consideration. The following table shows carrying value, maximum exposure to loss on our guarantees and the amount with a higher risk of performance.

(2) Written put options, which are in the form of derivatives, are also included in the derivative disclosures in Note 11 in this Report. Maximum exposure to loss and Non-investment grade are required disclosures under GAAP. Non-investment grade represents those guarantees on which we have a higher risk of being required to perform under the terms of the guarantee. If the underlying assets under the guarantee are non-investment grade (that is, an external rating that is below investment grade or an internal credit default grade that is equivalent to a below investment grade external rating), we consider the risk of performance to be high. Internal credit default grades are determined based upon the same credit policies that we use to evaluate the risk of payment or performance when making loans and other extensions of credit. These credit policies are more fully described in Note 5 in this Report. Maximum exposure to loss represents the estimated loss that would be incurred under an assumed hypothetical circumstance, despite what we believe is its extremely remote possibility, where the value of our interests and any associated collateral declines to zero, without any consideration of recovery or offset from any economic hedges. Accordingly, this required disclosure is not an indication of expected loss. We believe the carrying value, whic |

Derivatives [Abstract] | |
Derivatives | 11. DERIVATIVES We use derivatives to manage exposure to market risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and foreign currency risk, to generate profits from proprietary trading and to assist customers with their risk management objectives. Derivative transactions are measured in terms of the notional amount, but this amount is not recorded on the balance sheet and is not, when viewed in isolation, a meaningful measure of the risk profile of the instruments. The notional amount is generally not exchanged, but is used only as the basis on which interest and other payments are determined. Our approach to managing interest rate risk includes the use of derivatives. This helps minimize significant, unplanned fluctuations in earnings, fair values of assets and liabilities, and cash flows caused by interest rate volatility. This approach involves modifying the repricing characteristics of certain assets and liabilities so that changes in interest rates do not have a significant adverse effect on the net interest margin and cash flows. As a result of interest rate fluctuations, hedged assets and liabilities will gain or lose market value. In a fair value hedging strategy, the effect of this unrealized gain or loss will generally be offset by the gain or loss on the derivatives linked to the hedged assets and liabilities. In a cash flow hedging strategy, we manage the variability of cash payments due to interest rate fluctuations by the effective use of derivatives linked to hedged assets and liabilities. We use derivatives that are designed as qualifying hedge contracts as defined by the Derivatives and Hedging topic in the Codification as part of our interest rate and foreign currency risk management, including interest rate swaps, caps and floors, futures and forward contracts, and options. We also offer various derivatives, including interest rate, commodity, equity, credit and foreign exchange contracts, to our customers but usually offset our exposure from such contracts by purchasing other financial contracts. The customer accommodations and any offsetting financial contracts are treated as free-standing derivatives. Free-standing derivatives also include derivatives we enter into for risk management that do not otherwise qualify for hedge accounting, including economic hedge derivatives. To a lesser extent, we take positions based on market expectations or to benefit from price differentials between financial instruments and markets. Additionally, free-standing derivatives include embedded derivatives that are required to be separately accounted for from their host contracts. Our derivative activities are monitored by the Corporate Asset/Liability Management Committee (Corporate ALCO). Our Treasury function, which includes asset/liability management, is responsible for various hedging strategies developed through analysis of data from financial models and other internal and industry sources. We incorporate the resulting hedging strategies into our overall interest rate risk management and trading strategies. The total notional or contractual amounts and fair values for derivatives were: |

Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities [Abstract] | |
Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities | 12. FAIR VALUES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Trading assets, securities available for sale, derivatives, certain loans, prime residential MHFS, certain commercial LHFS, residential MSRs, principal investments and securities sold but not yet purchased (short sale liabilities) are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Certain loans and long-term debt are carried at fair value on a recurring basis beginning on January1, 2010. Additionally, from time to time, we may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as nonprime residential and commercial MHFS, certain LHFS, loans held for investment and certain other assets. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. Under fair value option accounting guidance, we elected to measure MHFS at fair value prospectively for new prime residential MHFS originations, for which an active secondary market and readily available market prices existed to reliably support fair value pricing models used for these loans. We also elected to remeasure at fair value certain of our other interests held related to residential loan sales and securitizations. We believe the election for MHFS and other interests held (which are now hedged with free-standing derivatives (economic hedges) along with our MSRs) reduces certain timing differences and better matches changes in the value of these assets with changes in the value of derivatives used as economic hedges for these assets. Upon the acquisition of Wachovia, we elected to measure at fair value certain portfolios of LHFS that we intend to hold for trading purposes and that may be economically hedged with derivative instruments. In addition, we elected to measure at fair value certain letters of credit that are hedged with derivative instruments to better reflect the economics of the transactions. These letters of credit are included in trading account assets or liabilities. Upon adoption of new consolidation accounting guidance on January1, 2009, we elected to measure certain loans and long-term debt of consolidated VIEs under the fair value option. We elected the fair value option to effectively continue fair value accounting through earnings for our interests in these VIEs. See Notes 1 and 7 in this Report for additional information. Fair Value Hierarchy In accordance with the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic of the Codification, we group our assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are: Level 1 Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 2 Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuat |

Operating Segments [Abstract] | |
Operating Segments | 16. OPERATING SEGMENTS We have three lines of business for management reporting: Community Banking; Wholesale Banking; and Wealth, Brokerage and Retirement. The results for these lines of business are based on our management accounting process, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each responsible operating segment. This process is dynamic and, unlike financial accounting, there is no comprehensive, authoritative guidance for management accounting equivalent to GAAP. The management accounting process measures the performance of the operating segments based on our management structure and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for other financial services companies. We define our operating segments by product type and customer segment. If the management structure and/or the allocation process changes, allocations, transfers and assignments may change. In first quarter 2010, we conformed certain funding and allocation methodologies of legacy Wachovia to those of Wells Fargo; in addition integration expense related to mergers other than the Wachovia merger are now included in segment results. Prior periods have been revised to reflect both changes. Community Banking offers a complete line of diversified financial products and services to consumers and small businesses with annual sales generally up to $20million in which the owner generally is the financial decision maker. Community Banking also offers investment management and other services to retail customers and securities brokerage through affiliates. These products and services include the Wells Fargo Advantage FundsSM, a family of mutual funds. Loan products include lines of credit, equity lines and loans, equipment and transportation (recreational vehicle and marine) loans, education loans, origination and purchase of residential mortgage loans and servicing of mortgage loans and credit cards. Other credit products and financial services available to small businesses and their owners include receivables and inventory financing, equipment leases, real estate financing, Small Business Administration financing, venture capital financing, cash management, payroll services, retirement plans, Health Savings Accounts and merchant payment processing. Consumer and business deposit products include checking accounts, savings deposits, market rate accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts, time deposits and debit cards. Community Banking serves customers through a complete range of channels, including traditional banking stores, in-store banking centers, business centers, ATMs, and Wells Fargo Customer Connection, a 24-hours a day, seven days a week telephone service. Online banking services include single sign-on to online banking, bill pay and brokerage, as well as online banking for small business. Community Banking also includes Wells Fargo Financial consumer finance and auto finance operations. Consumer finance operations make real estate loans to individuals in the United States and the Pacific Rim, and also make direct consumer loans to individuals and purchase sales finance contracts from retail merchants from offices throughout the Unite |

Regulatory and Agency Capital Requirements | 18. REGULATORY AND AGENCY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS The Company and each of its subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital adequacy requirements administered by the Federal Reserve Board (FRB)and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, respectively. Effective March20, 2010, Wachovia Bank, N.A. merged with and into Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. We do not consolidate our wholly-owned trusts (the Trusts) formed solely to issue trust preferred securities. The amount of trust preferred securities and perpetual preferred purchase securities issued by the Trusts that was includable in Tier 1 capital in accordance with FRB risk-based capital guidelines was $19.3billion at March31, 2010. The junior subordinated debentures held by the Trusts were included in the Companys long-term debt. To be well capitalized under the FDICIA For capital prompt corrective Actual adequacy purposes action provisions (in billions) Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio As of March31, 2010: Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) Wells Fargo Company $ 137.6 13.90 % $79.2 8.00 % Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. 120.9 13.29 72.8 8.00 $90.9 10.00 % Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) Wells Fargo Company 98.3 9.93 39.6 4.00 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. 92.6 10.18 36.4 4.00 54.6 6.00 Tier 1 capital (to average assets) (Leverage ratio) Wells Fargo Company 98.3 8.34 47.2 4.00 (1) Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. 92.6 8.76 42.3 4.00 (1) 52.8 5.00 (1) The leverage ratio consists of Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average total assets, excluding goodwill and certain other items. The minimum leverage ratio guideline is 3% for banking organizations that do not anticipate significant growth and that have well-diversified risk, excellent asset quality, high liquidity, good earnings, effective management and monitoring of market risk and, in general, are considered top-rated, strong banking organizations. Certain subsidiaries of the Company are approved seller/servicers, and are therefore required to maintain minimum levels of shareholders equity, as specified by various agencies, including the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, GNMA, FHLMC and FNMA. At March31, 2010, each seller/servicer met these requirements. Certain broker-dealer subsidiaries of the Company are subject to SEC Rule15c3-1 (the Net Capital Rule), which requires that we maintain minimum levels of net capital, as defined. At March31, 2010, each of these subsidiaries met these requirements. |
