CECL ANALYSIS

CECL
ANALYSIS

CECL is a new standard for Allowance for Loan and Lease Loss (ALLL). In June 2016, FASB issued the current expected credit losses (CECL) standard – ASU 2016-13 to replace the “incurred loss” accounting model with CECL for the recognition and measurement of credit losses for loans. A similar new standard will also be implemented for investment securities.
The new standard requires estimates of the lifetime expected credit losses at the time a loan is booked.
The new standard will not be effective until January 1, 2021 financial statements but credit unions need to start preparing their data now.
