Fair Value, Measurement Inputs, Disclosure [Text Block]
The following tables display the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company often economically hedges the fair value change of its assets or liabilities with derivatives and other financial instruments. The tables below display the hedges separately from the hedged items, and therefore do not directly display the impact of the Company’s risk management activities.

Significant increases/(decreases) in any of the inputs in isolation may result in significantly lower/(higher) fair value measurement. A change in the assumption used for discount rates may be accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the probability of delinquency and a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for prepayment rates.

(2)
Realized loss and unrealized (loss) gain on mortgage loans held-for-sale is recorded in (loss) gain on mortgage loans held-for-sale on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
(3)
Realized and unrealized loss on mortgage loans held-for-investment in securitization trusts and unrealized gain on collateralized borrowings in securitization trusts are recorded in other income on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
(4)
Realized gain and unrealized (loss) gain on equity securities is recorded in (loss) gain on investment securities on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
(5)
