1. Introduction

Explanatory Note

As used throughout this document, the terms "First Republic," the "Bank," "we," "our" and "us" mean, except as the context indicates otherwise, First Republic Bank, a California-chartered commercial bank including all of its subsidiaries.

For references to disclosures contained within this report and in the Bank's other regulatory disclosures and public filings, refer to "Exhibit A: Cross-Reference Table." Included in Exhibit A are references to the Bank's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 ("2020 Form 10-K"), and the Bank's Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income as of December 31, 2020 ("12/31/2020 Call Report").

Company Overview

Founded in 1985, First Republic Bank is a California-chartered commercial bank and trust company headquartered in San Francisco with deposits insured by the FDIC. First Republic and its subsidiaries offer private banking, private business banking and private wealth management, including investment, trust and brokerage services. First Republic specializes in delivering exceptional, relationship-based service and offers a complete line of products, including residential, commercial and personal loans, deposit services, and wealth management. As of December 31, 2020, we had total assets of $142.5 billion, total deposits of $114.9 billion, total equity of $11.8 billion and wealth management assets under management or administration of $194.5 billion.

As of December 31, 2020, we provided our services through 92 offices, of which 80are licensed deposit-taking offices primarily in the following areas: San Francisco, Palo Alto, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, Newport Beach and San Diego, California; Portland, Oregon; Boston, Massachusetts; Palm Beach, Florida; Greenwich, Connecticut; New York, New York; and Jackson, Wyoming. We have 12 offices that offer exclusively lending, wealth management or trust services. We have been continuously headquartered in San Francisco since our inception.

Basis of Consolidation

The basis of consolidation used for regulatory reporting is the same as that used under GAAP. There are no subsidiaries that are deconsolidated or deducted from total capital.

See "Basis of Presentation and Organization" in Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in the 2020 Form 10-K for more information on the basis of consolidation.

Restrictions on the Transfer of Funds or Regulatory Capital

There are no material restrictions or other major impediments on transfer of funds or total capital within the consolidated group.

Capital of Insurance Subsidiaries

The Bank does not have any insurance subsidiaries.

Compliance with Capital Requirements

As of December 31, 2020, First Republic had capital levels in excess of the minimum regulatory capital requirements and met all capital ratio requirements to be "well-capitalized" under the prompt corrective action requirements currently in effect. For further detail on capital ratios, see Note 23, "Regulatory Capital" in "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in the 2020 Form 10-K. At December 31, 2020, each regulated subsidiary met all capital requirements to which it was subject.

2. Capital Structure

Common equity (i.e., common stock, capital surplus, and retained earnings) is the primary component of the Bank's capital structure. Common equity allows for the absorption of losses on an ongoing basis and is available for this purpose. Further, common equity allows for the conservation of resources during periods of stress, as it provides First Republic with discretion on the amount and timing of dividends and other distributions. Regulators and rating agencies also include forms of capital other than common equity (e.g., preferred stock and subordinated debt) in their calculations of capital adequacy. Such forms of capital are included in the Bank's Tier 1 capital and Total capital.

The terms and conditions of the Bank's capital instruments are described in the following sections of the Bank's 2020 Form 10-K:

  • • CET1 capital - Common stock terms and conditions are described in Note 18, "Common Stock and Stock Plans" in "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

  • • Additional Tier 1 capital - Preferred stock terms and conditions are described in Note 17, "Preferred Stock" in "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

  • • Tier 2 capital - Subordinated notes terms and conditions are described in Note 13, "Borrowings" in "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Bank adopted the CECL methodology under ASC 326, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses," in which the ACL reflects expected credit losses over the life of loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, and incorporates macroeconomic forecasts as well as historical loss rates.

Effective beginning the first quarter of 2020, the Bank elected to adopt the regulatory capital relief from the impact of COVID-19 and application of the CECL methodology under ASC 326 ("CECL Capital Rule"). The CECL Capital Rule allows the Bank to delay the estimated impact of CECL on its regulatory capital over a five-year transition period ending December 31, 2024.

During the second quarter of 2020, the Simplifications Rule that was issued in July 2019 became effective. The Simplifications Rule requires the Bank to assign a 250% risk weight to MSRs or temporary difference DTAs not deducted from CET1 capital.

  • (2) Includes the ACL on loans, held-to-maturity debt securities and unfunded loan commitments.

3. Capital Adequacy

The Bank is committed to maintaining a robust capital planning process. The objectives of the Bank's capital planning process are to (a) establish and refine capital goals, (b) determine appropriate capital targets and composition of capital, (c) make decisions about capital actions, and (d) maintain contingency capital plans. The Bank begins its capital planning process with its annual business planning process, including a rolling, multi-year projection of its balance sheet, income statement and key operating and capital ratios based on the current and expected state of the economy and the Bank's expected growth and investment plans.

The business plan allows the Bank to project a baseline case and thereby estimate balance sheet growth, expected earnings and capital resources under expected business conditions.

As described in "Item 1. Business-Supervision and Regulation-Stress Testing" in our 2020 Form 10-K, the Bank is not currently subject to the Dodd-Frank Act company-run stress testing requirements. Nevertheless, in the normal course of operations, the Bank periodically performs internal capital stress tests in order to (a) translate risk measures into estimates of potential losses over one or more stress scenarios, (b) define available capital resources under one or more stress scenarios and (c) bring together estimates of losses and capital resources under one or more stress scenarios to assess the combined impact on capital adequacy in relation to the Bank's business plans and stated goals for the level and composition of capital and proposed capital actions.

The Bank's Board and senior management utilize internal capital stress testing to better understand the loss-absorption capabilities of the Bank's capital base and to better plan the Bank's capital actions, including new capital issuances and the payment of cash dividends on its common stock. In analyzing the Bank's performance and capital adequacy under stress, the Bank analyzes quarterly projected capital ratios under one or more economic scenarios and compares the results to projected capital ratios under its business plan.

In its capital adequacy assessment, the Bank also incorporates current and pending regulatory requirements, factors in material risks, and builds in appropriate capital buffers to manage against the impact of what we believe to be reasonably foreseeable sources of uncertainty and we seek to ensure adequate capital under stressful conditions. All assessments of capital adequacy are informed by current and relevant analysis and are subject to challenge by senior management and the Board and to regulatory oversight.

The Bank maintains internal controls governing its business planning and capital adequacy assessment processes. Such controls include appropriate policies and procedures, change control processes, model validation, comprehensive documentation, and review by internal audit. The primary objective of such controls and governance procedures is to provide a consistent, thoughtful, transparent, and reviewed process for (a) generating a baseline set of business projections, and (b) estimating hypothetical losses and capital levels under one or more stress scenarios.

First Republic is not subject to the Market Risk requirements (the "Market Risk Capital Rule") under subpart F of the rules issued by the federal banking agencies implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's capital framework (the "Basel III Capital Rules").

For additional information related to capital requirements, see "Capital Requirements" in "Item 1. Business- Supervision and Regulation" in our 2020 Form 10-K and "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Capital Resources" in our 2020 Form 10-K. First Republic Bank is the top tier parent company of our corporate group and has no bank holding company or any depository institution subsidiaries.

(1) (1) As of December 31, 2020, the Bank's election of regulatory capital relief under the CECL Capital Rule resulted in a 4 bps increase in the CET1 capital ratio and the Tier 1 capital ratio, and no impact on the Total capital ratio.

4. Capital Conservation Buffer

A "capital conservation buffer" of 2.5% of RWAs is also required under the Basel III Capital Rules. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a CET1 capital ratio above the minimum requirement but below the capital conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall and "eligible retained income" (that is, the greater of net income for the four calendar quarters preceding the current calendar quarter, net of any distributions and associated tax effects not already reflected in net income, and the average of net income over the preceding four quarters).

The capital conservation buffer of a banking organization is the lowest of the following three ratios:

  • • CET1 capital ratio minus its minimum CET1 capital ratio;

  • • Tier 1 capital ratio minus its minimum Tier 1 capital ratio; and

  • • Total capital ratio minus its minimum Total capital ratio.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Policies and the Impact of Accounting Estimates," Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 4, "Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses" in "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in the 2020 Form 10-K:

  • • Policy for determining past due or delinquency status

  • • Policy for placing loans on nonaccrual status

  • • Policy for returning loans to accrual status

  • • Definition of and policy for identifying individually assessed loans

  • • Methodology for estimating ACL

  • • Policy for charging off uncollectible amounts

The majority of the Bank's loan portfolio is secured by real estate. A decline in real estate values can negatively impact our ability to recover our investment should the borrower become delinquent. We safeguard against this risk by rarely exceeding a loan-to-value ratio of 80% with respect to real estate lending. Discussion of the Bank's credit risk management process is presented in "Item 1. Business-Lending Activities-Underwriting" and "Item 1. Business-Lending Activities- Credit Risk Management" in the 2020 Form 10-K.

The following table presents the geographical distribution of total loan commitments. The location is based on the property address for real estate secured loans and the borrower's primary address for other loans.

Investment Securities

The Bank adopted ASC 326 effective January 1, 2020. Under ASC 326, an ACL is recorded on held-to-maturity debt securities, and represents the portion of the amortized cost, excluding interest receivable, that the Bank does not expect to collect over the securities' contractual life. The Bank also evaluates available-for-sale debt securities that experienced a decline in fair value below amortized cost for credit impairment.

For information on credit exposures related to investment securities, refer to Note 3, "Investment Securities and Allowance for Credit Losses" in "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in the 2020 Form 10-K.

6. Counterparty Credit Risk-Related Exposures

The Bank has exposure to various counterparties and routinely executes transactions with the Bank's clients and counterparties in the financial services industry, including commercial banks, brokers, dealers and investment banks. Such transactions may expose the Bank to credit risk in the event of a default by a counterparty. In addition, the Bank's credit risk may be increased in the event that any collateral that the Bank holds cannot be realized upon or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount of the credit or derivative exposure due to the Bank. The Bank posts collateral to certain counterparties to secure exposures to those counterparties. These collateral agreements do not require that additional collateral be posted in the event that the Bank experiences a deterioration in its creditworthiness. In accordance with internal policy on limitations on counterparty exposures, the Bank evaluates its collateral positions on a regular basis as part of its ongoing monitoring of counterparty exposures.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Bank has freestanding derivative assets and liabilities, which consist of foreign exchange contracts executed with clients in which the Bank offsets the client exposure with a financial institution counterparty. The Bank does not retain significant foreign exchange risk. The Bank does retain credit risk, both to the client and the financial institution counterparty, which is evaluated and managed by the Bank in the normal course of its operations. In addition, the Bank has foreign exchange contracts associated with client deposits denominated in various foreign currencies. Management does not currently anticipate non-performance by any of the counterparties.

Counterparties in foreign exchange derivative contracts are either First Republic clients or financial institution counterparties. The Bank is exposed to the risk that the client or financial institution counterparty will not fulfill its transaction obligations. Such credit risk is not significant and is typically addressed by establishing a credit limit for the client or financial institution.

Client credit limits are based primarily on credit guidelines established and monitored by the Bank and take into account the client's outstanding debt and general creditworthiness, and collateral held by the Bank. Financial institution counterparty credit risk is managed through credit, contract and settlement limits established and monitored by the Bank. To mitigate this risk, the Bank enters into master netting and bilateral collateral agreements with certain counterparties. These agreements allow the Bank to settle its derivative contracts with such counterparties on a net basis and to offset the net derivative exposure against the related collateral in the event of default. Daily collateral management activities are performed by the Bank in accordance with bilateral netting agreements. Currently, the primary form of collateral related to foreign exchange contracts with clients and financial institution counterparties is cash.

Interest Rate Contracts

The Bank originates certain mortgage loans with the intention of selling these loans to investors. The Bank enters into commitments to originate the loans whereby the interest rate on the loan paid by the borrower is set prior to funding ("interest rate lock commitments"). Such interest rate lock commitments are accounted for as freestanding derivative instruments that do not qualify as hedges. However, the interest rate exposure is economically hedged by the forward loan sale commitment to the investor. Credit risk associated with these interest rate contracts is nominal.

  • (2) Represents the amount of credit exposure that is reduced due to the netting of offsetting positive and negative exposures where a valid master netting agreement exists, and collateral is held.

Collateral Held

With respect to the Bank's counterparty credit risk, the primary form of collateral is cash. At December 31, 2020, the fair value of cash collateral accepted by the Bank as part of foreign exchange derivative activities was $38.0 million.

7. Credit Risk Mitigation

The Bank uses various strategies to mitigate counterparty credit risk, including establishing credit risk appetite measures and setting internal policy limits on acceptable levels of exposure to each counterparty, although there can be no assurance that these strategies will be successful under all circumstances. The Bank also obtains collateral from derivatives counterparties to manage overall credit risk. Refer to Section 6, "Counterparty Credit Risk-Related Exposures-Collateral Held" within this document for discussion of collateral related to derivative counterparties.

Beginning in April 2020, the Bank became a lender under the PPP. PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and receive a zero percent risk weight.

In addition, certain exposures within the Bank's investment securities portfolios are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, U.S. Government agencies or U.S. Government-sponsored agencies. The following table presents the investment securities and loan exposures that are covered by guarantees and the RWA amounts associated with such exposures:

  • (3) Guaranteed by the SBA.

8. Securitization

During the second quarter of 2020, the Bank sold $300.1 million of originated single family loans through a securitization ("2020 Securitization") in which the Bank was the sponsor. In connection with its loan sales through the securitization, the Bank retained a portion of the investment securities issued in the securitization, which consist of non-agency residential MBS. As of December 31, 2020, these securitization exposures totaled $13.5 million.

In addition to the securitization exposures from the 2020 Securitization, as of December 31, 2020, the Bank had securitization exposures related to other investments in non-agency residential MBS created by third parties, which totaled $20.6 million.

Securitization exposures can involve various types of risk, including, but not limited to credit risk and market risk. Information regarding the performance of the underlying credit exposures and relevant market data is evaluated and monitored by the Bank at least quarterly.

For all securitization exposures, the Bank calculates the regulatory capital requirements in accordance with the SSFA to determine the risk-weighting for these assets, which considers the seniority of the Bank's investments in the securitization structure and risk factors inherent in the underlying assets.

The following table presents the Bank's securitization exposures by risk weight range for the non-agency residential MBS:

  • (2) Calculated by multiplying the RWA amount by the total risk-based capital ratio of 8%, which represents the minimum to be adequately capitalized.

9. Equity Exposures not Subject to Market Risk Capital Rule

The Bank's equity exposures, which are not subject to the Market Risk Capital Rule, include the following investments:

FHLB stock: FHLB stock is redeemable at par and recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. FHLB stock is a statutory investment required by regulation as part of FHLB membership.

LIHTC investments: LIHTC investments are accounted for using a proportional amortization method, whereby the initial cost of the Bank's LIHTC investments is amortized over the life of the investment. Under the proportional amortization method, amortization expense recognized in each period is based on the amount of tax credits and other tax benefits for the period as a percentage of expected total tax credits and other tax benefits of the investment. Amortization expense is presented as a component of provision for income taxes on the statement of income. Such investments are designed to generate a return primarily through the realization of federal tax credits.

Investments in mutual funds and marketable equity securities: Mutual funds and marketable equity securities have readily determinable fair values and are recorded at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.

Other investments: Other investments consist of equity investments without readily determinable fair values. These investments are accounted for under the equity method or at cost less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes ofthe same or similar investment. Equity method investments are recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for allocated earnings or losses, as well as for cash distributions. Such investments are periodically evaluated for impairment.

Latent revaluation gains and losses are unrealized gains and losses, which are not recognized in the Bank's balance sheets or statements of income and comprehensive income. Since the carrying value of the Bank's equity method investments and non-marketable equity securities approximates their fair value, management believes that any unrealized latent revaluation gains or losses that may exist are immaterial.

Investments in separate account life insurance: Investments in separate account life insurance are initially recorded at cost and the carrying value of the investment is subsequently adjusted quarterly to its cash surrender value. The Bank recognizes the resulting income or loss in noninterest income. The carrying amount of investments in separate account life insurance reflects the total cash surrender value of each policy, which approximates fair value.
