ince the Financial Accounting Standards Board first instituted the new current expected credit loss rule in June 2016, the banking industry has been deeply concerned over the impact CECL would have on total reserves and capital. And for some of the larger players, these concerns could prove true – JPMorgan Chase reported in February that it expects to see a $5 billion increase in its total reserves under CECL, representing a 35 percent jump from total reserves in 2018. But after first quarter earnings community banks, especially those in the Northeast, are singing a different tune. Many expect their reserves under CECL will be the same, if not smaller, than under the current incurred model, even as some observers reckon the economy is closer to a downturn than at any other time in the current cycle. “When we run the portfolios – and we have done this hundreds of times now – most people are within a standard deviation of where they currently reserve,” said William Mercer, managing director of Boston-based DebtX, a company that offers a CECL analytics solution mainly for community banks. “Some people are a little

Mercer’s findings have certainly rung true for stock banks in Massachusetts that have discussed CECL publicly. “We don’t have a number nailed down yet, but your instinct seems to pan out in that the CECL model may not be as big of a number as was originally intended and thought about in the industry,” Chris Oddleifson, president and CEO of Rockland Trust and the bank’s parent company, said on a recent earnings call.

higher, some people are a little lower. … In New England, we’ve seen fewer outliers actually.” Banks currently recognize their loan losses through an incurred model. When an event occurs that impairs a loan and causes it to lose value, the bank reflects this on their financial statements. Under CECL, which goes into effect for stock banks in 2020, banks will essentially have to forecast losses on the life of a loan and anticipate which loans are likely to become impaired based on detailed data.
