Item 2. Management’s Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition & Results of Operations
Introduction
This section reviews the financial condition and results of operations of KeyCorp and its subsidiaries for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021. Some tables may include additional periods to comply with disclosure requirements or to illustrate trends in greater depth. When you read this discussion, you should also refer to the consolidated financial statements and related notes in this report. The page locations of specific sections and notes that we refer to are presented in the Table of Contents.
References to our “2021 Form 10-K” refer to our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which has been filed with the SEC and is available on its website (www.sec.gov) and on our website (www.key.com/ir).
Terminology
Throughout this discussion, references to “Key,” “we,” “our,” “us,” and similar terms refer to the consolidated entity consisting of KeyCorp and its subsidiaries. “KeyCorp” refers solely to the parent holding company, and “KeyBank” refers to KeyCorp’s subsidiary bank, KeyBank National Association.
We want to explain some industry-specific terms at the outset so you can better understand the discussion that follows.
-
We use the phrase continuing operations in this document to mean all of our businesses other than our government-guaranteed and private education lending business, which has been accounted for as discontinued operations since 2009.
-
We engage in capital markets activities primarily through business conducted by our Commercial Bank segment*.* These activities encompass a variety of products and services. Among other things, we trade securities as a dealer, enter into derivative contracts (both to accommodate clients’ financing needs and to mitigate certain risks), and conduct transactions in foreign currencies (both to accommodate clients’ needs and to benefit from fluctuations in exchange rates).
-
For regulatory purposes, capital is divided into two classes. Federal regulations currently prescribe that at least one-half of a bank or BHC’s total risk-based capital must qualify as Tier 1 capital. Both total and Tier 1 capital serve as bases for several measures of capital adequacy, which is an important indicator of financial stability and condition. Banking regulators evaluate a component of Tier 1 capital, known as Common Equity Tier 1, under the Regulatory Capital Rules. The “Capital” section of this report under the heading “Capital adequacy” provides more information on total capital, Tier 1 capital, and the Regulatory Capital Rules, including Common Equity Tier 1, and describes how these measures are calculated.

Long-term financial targets

(a)See the section entitled “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations,” which presents the computations of certain financial measures related to “cash efficiency.” The section includes tables that reconcile the GAAP performance measures to the corresponding non-GAAP measures, which provides a basis for period-to-period comparisons.


(a)See the section entitled “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations,” which presents the computations of certain financial measures related to “tangible common equity.” The section includes tables that reconcile the GAAP performance measures to the corresponding non-GAAP measures, which provides a basis for period-to-period comparisons.
Positive Operating Leverage
Generate positive operating leverage and a cash efficiency ratio in the range of 54.0% to 56.0%.
We achieved positive operating leverage for the quarter. Revenues were up 6% quarter over quarter driven by growth in net interest income, reflecting strong loan growth. Our expense levels reflect the variable cost structure of the business as well as investments for future growth.
Moderate Risk Profile
Maintain a moderate risk profile by targeting a net loan charge-offs to average loans ratio in the range of .40% to .60% through a credit cycle.
We believe our strong risk management practices and disciplined underwriting continue to strengthen our credit quality. Net charge-offs to average loans remain at low levels, and we continue to see lower nonperforming loan levels.
Financial Return
A return on average tangible common equity in the range of 16.0% to 19.0%.
We remain committed to our stated priorities of supporting organic growth, increasing dividends, and prudently repurchasing Common Shares. During the second quarter of 2022, the Board declared a dividend of $.195 per Common Share.
Strategic developments
Our actions and results during the second quarter of 2022 support our corporate strategy described in the “Introduction” section under the “Corporate strategy” heading on page 47 of our 2021 Form 10-K.
-
We continued the momentum of strong loan growth across both our consumer and commercial businesses as we continue to add clients and support our existing relationships.
-
During the second quarter of 2022, we closed on the acquisition of GradFin, highlighting our commitment to accelerate growth through targeted investments in digital, niche businesses.
-
We continued to expand targeted client relationships as Laurel Road extended product and service offerings for healthcare professionals, including nurses.
-
We have expanded our climate commitments by investing in sustainable finance initiatives and joining the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials.
-
Our strong capital position allows us to continue to execute against each of our capital priorities of organic growth, dividends, and share repurchases. During the second quarter, the Board of Directors announced a Common Share dividend of $.195 per Common Share.

Supervision and regulation
The following discussion provides a summary of recent regulatory developments and should be read in conjunction with the disclosure included in our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation” in Item 1. Business and under the heading “II. Compliance Risk” in Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Regulatory capital requirements
The final rule to implement the Basel III international capital framework (“Basel III”) was effective January 1, 2015, with a multi-year transition period (“Regulatory Capital Rules”). As of April 1, 2020, the Regulatory Capital Rules were fully phased-in for Key. The Basel III capital framework and the U.S. implementation of the Basel III capital framework are discussed in more detail in Item 1. Business of our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation — Regulatory capital requirements.”
Under the Regulatory Capital Rules, standardized approach banking organizations, such as KeyCorp and KeyBank, are required to meet the minimum capital and leverage ratios set forth in Figure 1 below. At June 30, 2022, KeyCorp’s ratios under the fully phased-in Regulatory Capital Rules are set forth in Figure 1.
Figure 1. Minimum Capital Ratios and KeyCorp Ratios Under the Regulatory Capital Rules
| Ratios (including stress capital buffer) | Regulatory Minimum Requirement | Stress Capital Buffer (b) | Regulatory Minimum With Stress Capital Buffer | KeyCorp June 30, 2022 (c) | ||||||||||
| Common Equity Tier 1 | 4.5 | % | 2.5 | % | 7.0 | % | 9.2 | % | ||||||
| Tier 1 Capital | 6.0 | 2.5 | 8.5 | 10.4 | ||||||||||
| Total Capital | 8.0 | 2.5 | 10.5 | 12.0 | ||||||||||
| Leverage (a) | 4.0 | N/A | 4.0 | 8.6 |
(a)As a standardized approach banking organization, KeyCorp is not subject to the 3% supplemental leverage ratio requirement, which became effective January 1, 2018.
(b)Stress capital buffer must consist of Common Equity Tier 1 capital. As a standardized approach banking organization, KeyCorp is not subject to the countercyclical capital buffer of up to 2.5% imposed upon an advanced approaches banking organization under the Regulatory Capital Rules.
(c)Ratios reflect the five-year transition of CECL impacts on regulatory ratios.
Revised prompt corrective action framework
The federal prompt corrective action (“PCA”) framework under the FDIA groups FDIC-insured depository institutions into one of five prompt corrective action capital categories: “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” and “critically undercapitalized.” In addition to implementing the Basel III capital framework in the United States, the Regulatory Capital Rules also revised the PCA capital category threshold ratios applicable to FDIC-insured depository institutions such as KeyBank, with an effective date of January 1, 2015. The revised PCA framework table in Figure 2 identifies the capital category thresholds for a “well capitalized” and an “adequately capitalized” institution under the PCA Framework.
Figure 2. "Well Capitalized" and "Adequately Capitalized" Capital Category Ratios under Revised PCA Framework
| Prompt Corrective Action | Capital Category | ||||||||||
| Ratio | Well Capitalized (a) | Adequately Capitalized | |||||||||
| Common Equity Tier 1 Risk-Based | 6.5 | % | 4.5 | % | |||||||
| Tier 1 Risk-Based | 8.0 | 6.0 | |||||||||
| Total Risk-Based | 10.0 | 8.0 | |||||||||
| Tier 1 Leverage (b) | 5.0 | 4.0 |
(a)A “well capitalized” institution also must not be subject to any written agreement, order, or directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure.
(b)As a “standardized approach” banking organization, KeyBank is not subject to the 3% supplemental leverage ratio requirement, which became effective January 1, 2018.
As of June 30, 2022, KeyBank (consolidated) satisfied the risk-based and leverage capital requirements necessary to be considered “well capitalized” for purposes of the PCA framework. However, investors should not regard this determination as a representation of the overall financial condition or prospects of KeyBank because the PCA framework is intended to serve a limited supervisory function. Moreover, it is important to note that the PCA framework does not apply to BHCs, like KeyCorp.
Capital planning and stress testing
On June 23, 2022, the Federal Reserve announced the results of the supervisory stress test that it conducted of 34 BHCs having more than $100 billion in total consolidated assets (including KeyCorp). The Federal Reserve indicated that all BHCs subject to the stress test maintained capital ratios above the minimum required levels under the severely adverse scenario. The stress test results for individual BHCs will be used to determine a BHC’s stress capital buffer requirement, which will be effective on October 1, 2022, and will remain in effect until September 30, 2023, unless the firm later receives an updated stress capital buffer requirement from the Federal Reserve. It is expected that the Federal Reserve will announce the final stress capital buffer requirement for each firm subject to the supervisory stress test by August 31, 2022.
See Item 1. Business of our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation - Regulatory capital requirements - Capital planning and stress testing” for a discussion of other recent developments concerning capital planning and stress testing requirements.
Liquidity requirements
See Item. 1 Business of our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation - Regulatory capital requirements - Liquidity requirements” for a discussion of liquidity requirements, including the Liquidity Coverage Rules.
Deposit insurance and assessments
On June 21, 2022, the FDIC issued for public comment a proposal to increase the initial base deposit insurance assessment rates paid by all insured depository institutions by two basis points and to amend the Restoration Plan it had adopted on September 15, 2020, to incorporate the proposed increase in rates. The FDIC indicated that it was taking these actions in order to restore the DIF reserve ratio to the required minimum of 1.35% by the statutory deadline of September 30, 2028. The FDIC said that the reserve ratio had declined below this level because of the increase in deposits since the start of the pandemic and other factors that affect the level of the DIF. Under the FDIC’s proposal, the increase in rates would begin with the first quarterly assessment period of 2023 and would remain in effect unless and until the reserve ratio meets or exceeds 2% in order to support growth in the DIF in progressing toward the FDIC’s long-term goal of a 2% reserve ratio. Comments on the proposal are due by August 20, 2022. If the proposed increase in the assessment rates is adopted, it will apply to KeyBank.
See Item 1. Business of our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation – FDIA, Resolution Authority and Financial Stability” for a discussion of other recent developments concerning deposit insurance and assessments.
Resolution plans
See Item 1. Business of our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation - FDIA, Resolution Authority and Financial Stability” for a discussion of other recent developments concerning resolution plans.

See Item 1. Business of our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation - Other Regulatory Developments - Regulatory developments concerning COVID-19” for a discussion of other recent regulatory developments relating to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Federal LIBOR transition legislation
On March 15, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022, which contains the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act (the “LIBOR Act”). The LIBOR Act addresses certain issues relating to the transition from the use of LIBOR as a benchmark reference rate in contracts to the use of alternate reference rates. Among other things, the LIBOR Act (i) provides for the replacement, by operation of law, of LIBOR with a SOFR-based reference rate selected by the Federal Reserve for contracts which do not have effective fallback language; (ii) authorizes persons who have discretionary authority for selecting a LIBOR replacement to opt into a statutory safe harbor from liability by selecting the benchmark identified by the Federal Reserve; (iii) states that parties to a contract may opt out of the LIBOR Act; and (iv) provides that no federal supervisory agency may take supervisory action against a bank solely because the bank uses a benchmark rate other than SOFR. The LIBOR Act directs the Federal Reserve to promulgate regulations to implement this legislation by 180 days after the date of enactment.
On July 19, 2022, the Federal Reserve issued for public comment a proposed rule to implement the LIBOR Act. The proposed rule would establish Federal Reserve-selected benchmark replacements for contracts governed by federal or state law that use LIBOR as a benchmark reference rate but do not provide for a clearly defined or practicable replacement after June 30, 2023, when LIBOR will no longer be available in its current form. The proposal identifies separate Federal Reserve-selected replacement rates for derivative transactions, consumer loans, contracts where a government sponsored enterprise is a party, and all other affected contracts. Consistent with the LIBOR Act, each proposed replacement rate would be based on SOFR and would incorporate spread adjustments for each specified tenor of LIBOR. The proposed rule would also define various terms and provide clarification of certain provisions of the LIBOR Act. In addition to asking for comment on all aspects of the proposed rule, the Federal Reserve asked for comment on a series of questions related to the proposal. Comments are due by 30 days after publication of the proposed rule in the Federal Register.
Developments relating to climate change
On December 16, 2021, the OCC issued draft principles designed to provide a high-level framework for the safe and sound management of exposures to climate-related financial risks by national banks with more than $100 billion in total consolidated assets. The draft principles support efforts by banks to identify, measure, monitor, and mitigate the risks associated with climate change and encourage banks to incorporate consideration of climate-related financial risks into, among other things, strategic planning, credit underwriting, internal reporting, policies, procedures, and limits. The OCC requested public feedback on its draft principles by February 14, 2022, and said that it planned to elaborate on these principles in subsequent guidance that would distinguish roles and responsibilities of boards of directors and management, incorporate the feedback it receives, and consider lessons learned and best practices from the industry and other jurisdictions. Final principles or other guidance from the OCC regarding climate-related risk management would apply to KeyBank.
On March 21, 2022, the SEC issued for public comment a proposal to amend its rules under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to require public companies (including KeyCorp) to provide detailed climate-related information in their registration statements and periodic reports. Among other things, the proposal would require public companies to disclose information about (i) climate-related risks that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the company’s business or financial statements over the short-, medium- or long-term; (ii) the actual and potential impacts of such risks on the company’s strategy, business model, and outlook; (iii) the role of the board of directors in overseeing climate-related risks and management’s role in assessing and managing such risks; (iv) the impact of climate-related events and transitional activities on line items in the company’s consolidated financial statements as well as the financial estimates and assumptions used in the financial statements; and (v) the company’s direct greenhouse gas emissions, indirect emissions from purchased energy, and, if material, indirect emissions from the company’s value chain (which may include financed emissions in a bank’s loan portfolio). The financial services industry has not yet adopted a standardized methodology for banks to use to quantitatively measure indirect emissions from a bank’s value chain, such as financed emissions. Accordingly, this proposal would require many banks to quantify and disclose financed emissions on a comprehensive scale for the first time. Comments on the SEC’s proposal were originally due by May 20, 2022. The comment period was extended to June 17, 2022.
Computer-Security Incident Notification Requirements
On November 23, 2021, the federal banking agencies published a final rule that establishes computer-security incident notification requirements for banking organizations (including banks and BHCs) and bank service providers. The final rule requires a banking organization to notify its primary federal regulator as soon as possible and no later than 36 hours after the banking organization determines that a computer-security incident that rises to the level of a notification incident has occurred. A notification incident includes, among other things, a computer-security incident that materially disrupts or degrades, or is reasonable likely to materially disrupt or degrade, a banking organization’s operations or activities or its ability to deliver products or services to a material portion of its customer base. The final rule also requires a bank service provider to notify a banking organization of certain material disruptions in services provided to the banking organization. The final rule became effective on April 1, 2022, and has a compliance date of May 1, 2022. The final rule applies to KeyBank and KeyCorp.
Results of Operations
Earnings overview
The following chart provides a reconciliation of net income from continuing operations attributable to Key common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2021, to the three months ended June 30, 2022 (dollars in millions):

Net interest income
One of our principal sources of revenue is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income received on earning assets (such as loans and securities) and loan-related fee income, and interest expense paid on deposits and borrowings. There are several factors that affect net interest income, including:
-
the volume, pricing, mix, and maturity of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities;
-
the volume and value of net free funds, such as noninterest-bearing deposits and equity capital;
-
the use of derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk;
-
interest rate fluctuations and competitive conditions within the marketplace;
-
asset quality; and
-
fair value accounting of acquired earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
To make it easier to compare both the results across several periods and the yields on various types of earning assets (some taxable, some not), we present net interest income in this discussion on a “TE basis” (i.e., as if all income were taxable and at the same rate). For example, $100 of tax-exempt income would be presented as $126, an amount that, if taxed at the statutory federal income tax rate of 21%, would yield $100.
Figure 3 shows the various components of our balance sheet that affect interest income and expense and their respective yields or rates for the current periods and comparative year ago periods. This figure also presents a
reconciliation of TE net interest income to net interest income reported in accordance with GAAP for each of those quarters. The net interest margin, which is an indicator of the profitability of the earning assets portfolio less cost of funding, is calculated by dividing annualized TE net interest income by average earning assets.

Net interest income (TE) was $1.1 billion for the second quarter of 2022 and the net interest margin was 2.61%. Compared to the second quarter of 2021, net interest income increased $81 million and net interest margin increased by nine basis points. Net interest income (TE) and net interest margin benefited from higher earning asset balances, a favorable balance sheet mix, and higher interest rates. Net interest income (TE) and net interest margin were negatively impacted by the exit of the indirect auto loan portfolio and lower loan fees from the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP")
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net interest income (TE) increased $89 million from the same period last year and net interest margin decreased by three basis points. Net interest income (TE) and the net interest margin benefited from higher earning asset balances and a favorable balance sheet mix, higher interest rates, and lower interest-bearing deposit costs. Net interest income (TE) and the net interest margin were negatively impacted by the exit of the indirect auto loan portfolio and lower loan fees from the PPP.


Average loans were $109.1 billion for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $8.3 billion compared to the second quarter of 2021. Commercial loans increased $4.2 billion, reflecting strength in commercial mortgage real estate loans and core commercial and industrial loans, which mitigated the impact of a $6.8 billion decline in PPP balances. Consumer loans increased $4.1 billion, due to strength from Key's consumer mortgage business and Laurel Road, partly offset by the sale of the indirect auto loan portfolio.
Average deposits totaled $147.5 billion for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $3.1 billion compared to the year-ago quarter. The increase reflects growth from consumer and commercial relationships, including higher commercial escrow and retail deposits, partially offset by a decline in time deposits.

Provision for credit losses

Key’s provision for credit losses was $45 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a net benefit of $222 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The provision for credit losses was $128 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a net benefit of $315 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase reflects the impact of a reserve release in each respective year-ago period as uncertainty caused by the pandemic subsided.
Noninterest income
As shown in Figure 4, noninterest income was $688 million, and represented 38% of total revenue for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $750 million, representing 42% of total revenue, for the year-ago quarter.
The following discussion explains the composition of certain elements of our noninterest income and the factors that caused those elements to change.
Figure 4. Noninterest Income


(a)Other noninterest income includes operating lease income and other leasing gains, corporate services income, corporate-owned life insurance income, consumer mortgage income, commercial mortgage servicing fees, and other income. See the "Consolidated Statements of Income" in Item 1. Financial Statements of this report.




Trust and investment services income
Trust and investment services income consists of brokerage commissions, trust and asset management fees, and insurance income. The assets under management that primarily generate certain trust and asset management fees are shown in Figure 5. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, trust and investment services income was up $4 million, or 3.0%, compared to the same period one year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, trust and investment services income was up $7 million, or 2.6%, compared to the same period one year ago. This was primarily due to an increase in commissions based revenue offset by decreases in fees associated with lower assets under management balances.
A significant portion of our trust and investment services income depends on the value and mix of assets under management. At June 30, 2022, our bank, trust, and registered investment advisory subsidiaries had assets under management of $49.0 billion, compared to $51.0 billion at June 30, 2021. Assets under management were down compared to June 30, 2021, as shown in Figure 5, due to market impact on portfolios.

Investment banking and debt placement fees
Investment banking and debt placement fees consists of syndication fees, debt and equity securities underwriting fees, merger and acquisition and financial advisory fees, gains on sales of commercial mortgages, and agency origination fees. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, investment banking and debt placement fees were
down $68 million, or 31.3%, compared to the same period a year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, investment banking and debt placement fees decreased $67 million, or 17.7%. The movement reflects the slowdown in capital markets activity.
Service charges on deposit accounts
Service charges on deposit accounts increased $13 million, or 15.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same period one year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, service charges on deposit accounts increased by $31 million, or 19.9%, from the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increases were driven by higher gross overdraft fees and lower waiver rates.
Cards and payments income
Cards and payments income, which consists of debit card, prepaid card, consumer and commercial credit card, and merchant services income, decreased $28 million, or 24.8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same period one year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cards and payment income decreased $53 million, or 24.3% from the same period a year ago. These decreases are primarily a result of lower prepaid card activity offset by slight increases in merchant services income.
Other noninterest income
Other noninterest income includes operating lease income and other leasing gains, corporate services income,
corporate-owned life insurance income, consumer mortgage income, commercial mortgage servicing fees, and other income. Other noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2022, increased $17 million, or 8.3%, from the year-ago quarter, as a result of an increase in corporate services income from derivative related activities slightly offset by a decrease in consumer mortgage income from lower gains on sale. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, other noninterest income decreased $42 million, or 9.0%, from the same period a year ago, driven by the overall decrease in consumer mortgage income as well as decreases from market adjustments on other investments partially offset by an increase in corporate services income.
Noninterest expense
As shown in Figure 6, noninterest expense was $1.1 billion for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $1.1 billion for the second quarter of 2021. Noninterest expense was $2.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as well as for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
The following discussion explains the composition of certain elements of our noninterest expense and the factors that caused those elements to change.
Figure 6. Noninterest Expense


(a)Other noninterest expense includes equipment, operating lease expense, marketing, OREO expense, net, and other expense. See the "Consolidated Statements of Income" in Item 1. Financial Statements of this report.

Personnel
Personnel expense, the largest category of our noninterest expense, decreased by $16 million, or 2.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same period one year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, personnel expense was down $10 million, or 0.8%, compared to the same period one year ago. The decrease was driven by lower incentive compensation, reflecting lower production related incentives, partially offset by an increase in salaries and contract labor, as a result of higher merit increases and technology contract labor.
Other nonpersonnel expense
Other nonpersonnel expense includes net occupancy, computer processing, business services and professional fees, equipment, operating lease expense, marketing, and other miscellaneous expense categories. Other nonpersonnel expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022, increased $18 million, or 4.0%, from the year-ago quarter, primarily due to an increase in other expense, due to higher travel and entertainment, as well as an increase in computer processing expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, other nonpersonnel expense increased $11 million, or 1.2%, from the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Income taxes
We recorded tax expense of $132 million for the second quarter of 2022 and $189 million for the second quarter of 2021. We recorded tax expense of $222 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $336 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Our federal tax expense and effective tax rate differs from the amount that would be calculated using the federal statutory tax rate; primarily from investments in tax-advantaged assets, such as corporate-owned life insurance, tax credits associated with energy related projects and low-income housing investments, and periodic adjustments to our tax reserves.
Additional information pertaining to how our tax expense (benefit) and the resulting effective tax rates were derived is included in Note 14 (“Income Taxes”) beginning on page 156 of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Business Segment Results
This section summarizes the financial performance of our two major business segments (operating segments): Consumer Bank and Commercial Bank. Note 20 (“Business Segment Reporting”) describes the products and services offered by each of these business segments and provides more detailed financial information pertaining to the segments.

Commercial and industrial. Commercial and industrial loans are the largest component of our loan portfolio, representing 49% of our total loan portfolio at June 30, 2022, and 51% at December 31, 2021. This portfolio is approximately 84% variable rate and consists of loans originated primarily to large corporate, middle market, and small business clients.
Commercial and industrial loans totaled $55.2 billion at June 30, 2022, an increase of $4.7 billion, or 9.3%, compared to December 31, 2021. The increase was broad-based and spread across most industry categories with an increase in utilization.
Commercial real estate loans. Our commercial real estate portfolio includes both mortgage and construction loans and is conducted through two primary sources: our 15-state banking franchise, and KeyBank Real Estate Capital, a national line of business within the Commercial Bank that cultivates relationships with owners of commercial real estate located both within and beyond the branch system. Nonowner-occupied properties, generally properties for which at least 50% of the debt service is provided by rental income from nonaffiliated third parties, represented 81% of total commercial real estate loans outstanding at June 30, 2022. Construction loans, which provide a stream of funding for properties not fully leased at origination to support debt service payments over the term of the contract or project, represented 12% of commercial real estate loans at period end.
At June 30, 2022, commercial real estate loans totaled $17.8 billion, which includes $15.6 billion of mortgage loans and $2.1 billion of construction loans. Compared to December 31, 2021, this portfolio increased $1.5 billion, or 9.5%, driven by growth in multi-family lending. We continue to focus primarily on owners and operators of completed and stabilized commercial real estate in accordance with our relationship strategy.
As shown in Figure 9, our commercial real estate loan portfolio includes various property types and geographic
locations of the underlying collateral. These loans include commercial mortgage and construction loans in both
Consumer Bank and Commercial Bank.

Consumer loan portfolio
Consumer loans outstanding as of June 30, 2022, totaled $35.4 billion, an increase of $4.4 billion, or 14.2%, from December 31, 2021. Consumer loans continue to reflect strength from the consumer mortgage business and Laurel Road.
The residential mortgage portfolio is comprised of loans originated by our Consumer Bank and is the largest segment of our consumer loan portfolio as of June 30, 2022, representing 55% of consumer loans outstanding. This is followed by our home equity portfolio representing 23% of consumer loans outstanding at June 30, 2022.
We held the first lien position for approximately 69% of the home equity portfolio at June 30, 2022, and 71% at December 31, 2021. For loans with real estate collateral, we track borrower performance monthly. Regardless of the lien position, credit metrics are refreshed quarterly, including recent FICO scores as well as updated loan-to-value ratios. This information is used in establishing the ALLL. Our methodology is described in Note 1 (“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”) under the heading “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of our 2021 Form 10-K.

In the event of default by a borrower, we are subject to recourse with respect to approximately $6.5 billion of the $496.0 billion of loans administered or serviced at June 30, 2022. Additional information about this recourse arrangement is included in Note 17 (“Contingent Liabilities and Guarantees”) under the heading “Recourse agreement with FNMA.”
We derive income from several sources when retaining the right to administer or service loans that are sold. We earn noninterest income (recorded as “Consumer mortgage income” and “Commercial mortgage servicing fees”) from fees for servicing or administering loans. This fee income is reduced by the amortization of related servicing assets. In addition, we earn interest income from investing funds generated by escrow deposits collected in connection with the servicing loans. Additional information about our mortgage servicing assets is included in Note 8 (“Mortgage Servicing Assets”).
Securities
Our securities portfolio totaled $50.6 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $52.9 billion at December 31, 2021. Available-for-sale securities were $42.4 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $45.4 billion at December 31, 2021. Held-to-maturity securities were $8.2 billion at June 30, 2022, and $7.5 billion at December 31, 2021.
As shown in Figure 13, all of our mortgage-backed securities, which include both securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, are issued by government-sponsored enterprises or GNMA, and are traded in liquid secondary markets. These securities are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value for the available-for-sale portfolio and at amortized cost for the held-to-maturity portfolio. For more information about these securities, refer to our 2021 Form 10-K within Note 1 (“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”) under the heading “Securities” and Note 6 (“Fair Value Measurements”) under the heading “Qualitative Disclosures of Valuation Techniques.” Additionally refer to Note 6 (“Securities”) within this report.

Securities available for sale
The majority of our securities available-for-sale portfolio consists of Federal Agency CMOs and mortgage-backed securities. CMOs are debt securities secured by a pool of mortgages or mortgage-backed securities. These mortgage securities generate interest income, serve as collateral to support certain pledging agreements, and provide liquidity value to help meet regulatory requirements.

Held-to-maturity securities
The majority of our held-to-maturity portfolio consists of Federal agency CMOs and mortgage-backed securities. This portfolio is also comprised of asset-backed securities that were acquired as the result of balance sheet optimization strategies, including the indirect auto portfolio transaction in the third quarter of 2021. The remaining balance is comprised of foreign bonds. Figure 15 shows the composition, yields, and remaining maturities of these securities.

Deposits and other sources of funds
Figure 16. Breakdown of Deposits at June 30, 2022


Deposits are our primary source of funding. At June 30, 2022, our deposits totaled $145.9 billion, a decrease of $6.7 billion compared to December 31, 2021, largely reflecting seasonal retail and commercial outflows and public sector deposit outflows related to stimulus funds.
Wholesale funds, consisting of short-term borrowings and long-term debt, totaled $22.7 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $12.8 billion at December 31, 2021. The increase reflects the use of both short- and longer-term borrowings to fund balance sheet growth.
Capital
The objective of capital management is to maintain capital levels consistent with our risk appetite and of a sufficient amount to operate under a wide range of economic conditions. We have identified three primary uses of capital:
-
Investing in our businesses, supporting our clients, and loan growth;
-
Maintaining or increasing our Common Share dividend; and
-
Returning capital in the form of Common Share repurchases to our shareholders.
The following sections discuss certain ways we have deployed our capital. For further information, see the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity and Note 19 (“Shareholders' Equity”).


Dividends
Consistent with our 2021 capital plan, we paid a quarterly dividend of $.195 per Common Share for the second quarter of 2022. Further information regarding the capital planning process and CCAR is included under the heading “Capital planning and stress testing” beginning on page 16 in the “Supervision and Regulation” section of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Common shares outstanding
Our Common Shares are traded on the NYSE under the symbol KEY with 30,176 holders of record at June 30, 2022. Our book value per Common Share was $13.48 based on 932.6 million shares outstanding at June 30, 2022, compared to $16.76 per Common Share based on 928.9 million shares outstanding at December 31, 2021. At June 30, 2022, our tangible book value per Common Share was $10.40, compared to $13.72 per Common Share at December 31, 2021.
Figure 17 shows activities that caused the change in outstanding Common Shares over the past five quarters.

As shown above, Common Shares outstanding increased by .2 million shares during the second quarter of 2022.
At June 30, 2022, we had 324.1 million treasury shares, compared to 327.9 million treasury shares at December 31, 2021. Going forward we expect to reissue treasury shares as needed in connection with stock-based compensation awards and for other corporate purposes.
Information on repurchases of Common Shares by KeyCorp is included in Part II, Item 2. “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” of this report.
Capital adequacy
Capital adequacy is an important indicator of financial stability and performance. All of our capital ratios remained in excess of regulatory requirements at June 30, 2022. Our capital and liquidity levels are intended to position us to weather an adverse operating environment while continuing to serve our clients’ needs, as well as to meet the Regulatory Capital Rules described in Item 1. Business of our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation.” Our shareholders’ equity to assets ratio was 7.7% at June 30, 2022, compared to 9.4% at December 31, 2021. Our tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 5.3% at June 30, 2022, compared to 6.9% at December 31, 2021. See the section entitled “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations,” which presents the computations of certain financial measures related to “tangible common equity.” The minimum capital and leverage ratios under the Regulatory Capital Rules together with the ratios of KeyCorp at June 30, 2022, are set forth in the “Supervision and regulation — Regulatory capital requirements” section in Item 2 of this report.
Figure 18 represents the details of our regulatory capital positions at June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, under the Regulatory Capital Rules. Information regarding the regulatory capital ratios of KeyCorp’s banking subsidiaries is presented annually, with the most recent information included in Note 24 (“Shareholders' Equity”) beginning on page 175 of our 2021 Form 10-K.

Risk Management
Overview
Like all financial services companies, we engage in business activities and assume the related risks. The most significant risks we face are credit, compliance, operational, liquidity, market, reputation, strategic, and model risks. Our risk management activities are focused on ensuring that we properly identify, measure, and manage such risks across the entire enterprise to maintain safety and soundness, and to maximize profitability. There have been no significant changes in our Risk Management practices as described under the heading “Risk Management” beginning on page 73 of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Market risk management
Market risk is the risk that movements in market risk factors, including interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, commodity prices, credit spreads, and volatilities will reduce Key’s income and the value of its portfolios. These factors influence prospective yields, values, or prices associated with the instrument. We are exposed to market risk both in our trading and nontrading activities, which include asset and liability management activities. Information regarding our fair value policies, procedures, and methodologies is provided in Note 1 (“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”) under the heading “Fair Value Measurements” on page 111 of our 2021 Form 10-K and Note 5 (“Fair Value Measurements”) in this report.
Trading market risk
Key incurs market risk as a result of trading activities that are used in support of client facilitation and hedging activities, principally within our investment banking and capital markets businesses. Key has exposures to a wide range of risk factors including interest rates, equity prices, foreign exchange rates, credit spreads, and commodity prices, as well as the associated implied volatilities and spreads. Our primary market risk exposures are a result of trading and hedging activities in the derivative and fixed income markets, including securitization positions exposures. At June 30, 2022, we did not have any re-securitization positions. We maintain modest trading inventories to facilitate customer flow, make markets in securities, and hedge certain risks including but not limited to credit risk and interest rate risk. The risks associated with these activities are mitigated in accordance with the Market Risk hedging policy. The majority of our positions are traded in active markets.
Market risk management is an integral part of Key’s risk culture. The Risk Committee of our Board provides oversight of trading market risks. The ERM Committee and the Market Risk Committee regularly review and discuss market risk reports prepared by our MRM that contain our market risk exposures and results of monitoring activities. Market risk policies and procedures have been defined and approved by the Market Risk Committee, a Tier 2 Risk Governance Committee, and take into account our tolerance for risk and consideration for the business environment. For more information regarding monitoring of trading positions and the activities related to the Market Risk Rule compliance, see ”Market Risk Management” beginning on page 75 of our 2021 Form 10-K.
VaR and stressed VaR. VaR is the estimate of the maximum amount of loss on an instrument or portfolio due to adverse market conditions during a given time interval within a stated confidence level. Stressed VaR is used to assess extreme conditions on market risk within our trading portfolios. The MRM calculates VaR and stressed VaR on a daily basis, and the results are distributed to appropriate management. VaR and stressed VaR results are also provided to our regulators and utilized in regulatory capital calculations.
We use a historical simulation VaR model to measure the potential adverse effect of changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, and credit spreads on the fair value of our covered positions and other non-covered positions. We analyze market risk by portfolios and do not separately measure and monitor our portfolios by risk type. Historical scenarios are customized for specific positions, and numerous risk factors are incorporated in the calculation. Additional consideration is given to the risk factors to estimate the exposures that contain optionality features, such as options and cancellable provisions. VaR is calculated using daily observations over a one-year time horizon and approximates a 95% confidence level. Statistically, this means that we would expect to incur losses greater than VaR, on average, five out of 100 trading days, or three to four times each quarter. We also calculate VaR and stressed VaR at a 99% confidence level. For more information regarding our VaR model, its governance and assumptions, see ”Market Risk Management” on page 75 of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Actual losses for the total covered portfolios did not exceed aggregate daily VaR on any day during the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Actual losses for the total covered portfolios did not exceed the aggregate daily VaR at a 99% confidence level during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The MRM backtests our VaR model on a daily basis to evaluate its predictive power. The test compares VaR model results at the 99% confidence level to daily held profit and loss. Results of backtesting are provided to the Market Risk Committee. Backtesting exceptions occur when trading losses exceed VaR. We do not engage in correlation trading or utilize the internal model approach for measuring default and credit migration risk. Our net VaR approach incorporates diversification, but our VaR calculation does not include the impact of counterparty risk and our own credit spreads on derivatives.
The aggregate VaR at the 99% confidence level with a one day holding period for all covered positions was $1.6 million at June 30, 2022, and $1.3 million at June 30, 2021. Figure 19 summarizes our VaR at the 99% confidence level with a one day holding period for significant portfolios of covered positions for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021.

Stressed VaR is calculated by running the portfolios through a predetermined stress period which is approved by the Market Risk Committee and is calculated at the 99% confidence level using the same model and assumptions used for general VaR. The aggregate stressed VaR for all covered positions was $2.8 million at June 30, 2022, and $6.5 million at June 30, 2021. The decrease in stressed VaR is due to several factors including a change in our VaR modeling and the change in the size and composition of the Fixed Income inventory. Figure 20 summarizes our stressed VaR at the 99% confidence level with a one day holding period for significant portfolios of covered positions for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021.

Internal capital adequacy assessment. Market risk is a component of our internal capital adequacy assessment. Our risk-weighted assets include a market risk-equivalent asset amount, which consists of a VaR component, stressed VaR component, a de minimis exposure amount, and a specific risk add-on including the securitization positions. The aggregate market value of the securitization positions as defined by the Market Risk Rule was $0.1 million at June 30, 2022, all of which were mortgage-backed security positions. Specific risk is the price risk of individual financial instruments, which is not accounted for by changes in broad market risk factors and is measured through a standardized approach. Market risk weighted assets, including the specific risk calculations, are run quarterly by the MRM in accordance with the Market Risk Rule, and approved by the Chief Market Risk Officer.
Nontrading market risk
Most of our nontrading market risk is derived from interest rate fluctuations and its impacts on our traditional loan and deposit products, as well as investments, hedging relationships, long-term debt, and certain short-term borrowings. Interest rate risk, which is inherent in the banking industry, is measured by the potential for fluctuations in net interest income and the EVE. Such fluctuations may result from changes in interest rates and differences in the repricing and maturity characteristics of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. We manage the exposure to changes in net interest income and the EVE in accordance with our risk appetite and in accordance with the Board approved ERM policy.
Interest rate risk positions are influenced by a number of factors, including the balance sheet positioning that arises out of customer preferences for loan and deposit products, economic conditions, the competitive environment within our markets, changes in market interest rates that affect client activity, and our hedging, investing, funding, and capital positions. The primary components of interest rate risk exposure consist of reprice risk, basis risk, yield curve risk, and option risk.
-
“Reprice risk”** is the exposure to changes in the level of interest rates and occurs when the volume of interest-bearing liabilities and the volume of interest-earning assets they fund (e.g., deposits used to fund loans) do not mature or reprice at the same time.
-
“Basis risk”** is the exposure to asymmetrical changes in interest rate indexes and occurs when floating-rate assets and floating-rate liabilities reprice at the same time, but in response to different market factors or indexes.
-
“Yield curve risk” is the exposure to nonparallel changes in the slope of the yield curve (where the yield curve depicts the relationship between the yield on a particular type of security and its term to maturity) and occurs when interest-bearing liabilities and the interest-earning assets that they fund do not price or reprice to the same term point on the yield curve.
-
“Option risk”** is the exposure to a customer or counterparty’s ability to take advantage of the interest rate environment and terminate or reprice one of our assets, liabilities, or off-balance sheet instruments prior to contractual maturity without a penalty. Option risk occurs when exposures to customer and counterparty early withdrawals or prepayments are not mitigated with an offsetting position or appropriate compensation.
The management of nontrading market risk is centralized within Corporate Treasury. The Risk Committee of our Board provides oversight of nontrading market risk. The ERM Committee and the ALCO review reports on the interest rate risk exposures described above. In addition, the ALCO reviews reports on stress tests and sensitivity analyses related to interest rate risk. These committees have various responsibilities related to managing nontrading market risk, including recommending, approving, and monitoring strategies that maintain risk positions within approved tolerance ranges. The A/LM policy provides the framework for the oversight and management of interest rate risk and is administered by the ALCO. The MRM, as the second line of defense, provides additional oversight.
LIBOR Transition
As disclosed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of our 2021 Form 10-K, LIBOR in its current form is no longer available for new contracts and the LIBOR Administrator will cease publishing all U.S. LIBOR tenors entirely after June 30, 2023. For most products, the most likely replacement benchmark is expected to be SOFR, which has been recommended by the ARRC, although uncertainty remains as to whether new benchmarks may evolve and a different credit sensitive benchmark could instead become the market-accepted benchmark. We have established an enterprise wide program to identify and address all LIBOR transition issues. We are collaborating closely with regulators and industry groups on the transition and closely monitoring developments in industry practices related to LIBOR alternatives. The goals of our LIBOR transition program are to:
-
Identify and analyze LIBOR-based exposure and develop and execute transition strategies;
-
Review and update near-term strategies and actions for our LIBOR-based business currently being written;
-
Assess financial impact and risk while planning and executing mitigation actions;
-
Understand and strategically address the current market approach to LIBOR relative to transition to alternative reference rates, including the impact of the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act;
-
Determine and execute system and process work to be operationally ready for additional credit sensitive benchmarks; and
-
Remediate remaining LIBOR contracts.
As part of the LIBOR transition program, we completed an initial risk assessment to help us identify the impact and risks associated with various products, systems, processes, and models. This risk assessment has assisted us in making necessary updates to our infrastructure and operational systems and processes to implement a replacement rate, and we are operationally ready for various SOFR-based benchmarks, including but not limited to, Daily Simple SOFR in Arrears, SOFR Compounded in Arrears, SOFR Averages in Advance, and Term SOFR. We are actively quoting alternative indexes other than LIBOR, such as SOFR and Term SOFR, and are originating new loans in those indexes. We have also begun to originate a small number of new loans using credit sensitive rates in a limited and managed fashion.
We have compiled an inventory of existing legal contracts that are impacted by the LIBOR transition. We have assessed the LIBOR fallback language in those contracts, have devised a strategy to address the LIBOR transition for those contracts, and are in the process of remediating such contracts. Our progress is well-paced, especially as many of the legacy contracts were provided additional time to remediate due to announcements by the ICE Benchmark Administration, the FCA-regulated and authorized administrator of LIBOR, that certain LIBOR tenors may continue until June 2023 for legacy contract purposes. In addition, we completed our work to address contracts with LIBOR tenors that had to transition by the end of 2021. We expect to leverage recommendations made by the ARRC and ISDA that are tailored to our specific client segments. We are currently evaluating the impact of the LIBOR Act, which was enacted on March 15, 2022. The legislation provides a uniform national approach for replacing LIBOR in legacy contracts that do not provide for the use of a clearly defined or practicable replacement benchmark rate.
As of June 30, 2022, Key had the following instruments that were either directly or indirectly dependent on LIBOR.

Net interest income simulation analysis. The primary tool we use to measure our interest rate risk is simulation analysis. For purposes of this analysis, we estimate our net interest income based on the current and projected composition of our on- and off-balance sheet positions, accounting for recent and anticipated trends in customer activity. The analysis also incorporates assumptions for the current and projected interest rate environments and balance sheet growth projections based on a most likely macroeconomic view. The modeling incorporates investment portfolio and swap portfolio balances consistent with management's desired interest rate risk positioning. The simulation model estimates the amount of net interest income at risk by simulating the change in net interest income that would occur if rates were to gradually increase or decrease from current levels over the next 12 months (subject to a floor on market interest rates at zero).
Figure 21 presents the results of the simulation analysis at June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021. At June 30, 2022, our simulated impact to changes in interest rates was moderate. The exposure to declining rates has increased as a result of an increase in the current level of market rates and a larger balance sheet compared to the June 30, 2021, analysis. Current modeled exposure is outside the Board approved tolerances, but is consistent with the Committee’s risk appetite. Declining rate exposure is expected to return within tolerance as deposit rates increase from current levels. If a tolerance level is breached and determined inconsistent with risk appetite, the development of a remediation plan is required to reduce exposure back to within tolerance.

Simulation analyses produce a sophisticated estimate of interest rate exposure based on assumption inputs within the model. Assumptions are tailored to the specific interest rate environment and validated on a regular basis. However, actual results may differ from those derived in simulation analyses due to unanticipated changes to the balance sheet composition, customer behavior, product pricing, market interest rates, changes in management’s desired interest rate risk positioning, investment, funding and hedging activities or repercussions from exogenous events.
Regular stress tests and sensitivity analyses are performed on the model inputs that could materially change the resulting risk assessments. Assessments are performed using different yield curve shapes, including steepenings or
flattenings of the curve, immediate changes in market interest rates, and changes in the relationship of money market interest rates. Assessments are also performed on changes to the following assumptions: loan and deposit balances, the pricing of deposits without contractual maturities, changes in lending spreads, prepayments on loans and securities, investment, funding and hedging activities, and liquidity and capital management strategies.
The results of additional assessments indicate that net interest income could increase or decrease from the base simulation results presented in Figure 21. Net interest income is highly dependent on the timing, magnitude, frequency, and path of interest rate changes and the associated assumptions for deposit repricing relationships, lending spreads, and the balance behavior of transaction accounts. If fixed rate assets increase by $1 billion, or fixed rate liabilities decrease by $1 billion, then the benefit to rising rates would decrease by approximately 25 basis points. If the interest-bearing liquid deposit beta assumption increases or decreases by 5% (e.g., 40% to 45%), then the benefit to rising rates would decrease or increase by approximately 105 basis points.
The current interest rate risk position could fluctuate to higher or lower levels of risk depending on the competitive environment and client behavior that may affect the actual volume, mix, maturity, and repricing characteristics of loan and deposit flows. Corporate Treasury discretionary activities related to funding, investing, and hedging may also change as a result of changes in customer business flows or changes in management’s desired interest rate risk positioning. As changes occur to both the configuration of the balance sheet and the outlook for the economy, management proactively evaluates hedging opportunities that may change the interest rate risk profile..
Simulations are also conducted that measure the effect of changes in market interest rates in the second and third years of a three-year horizon. These simulations are conducted in a similar manner to those based on a 12-month horizon. To capture longer-term exposures, changes in the EVE are calculated as discussed in the following section.
Economic value of equity modeling. EVE complements net interest income simulation analysis as it estimates risk exposure beyond 12-, 24-, and 36-month horizons. EVE modeling measures the extent to which the economic values of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet instruments may change in response to fluctuations in interest rates. EVE is calculated by subjecting the balance sheet to an immediate increase or decrease in interest rates, measuring the resulting change in the values of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet instruments, and comparing those amounts with the base case of the current interest rate environment. EVE policy limits are measures against a +200 basis point/policy decline scenario. The policy decline scenario is equal to the current Fed Target Rate capped at 200 basis points. As of June 30, 2022, the policy decline scenario is minus 175 basis points. This analysis is highly dependent upon assumptions applied to assets and liabilities with non-contractual maturities. Those assumptions are based on historical behaviors, as well as forward expectations. Remediation plans are similarly developed if the analysis indicates that the EVE will decrease by more than 15% in response to an immediate increase or decrease in interest rates. The position is within these guidelines as of June 30, 2022.
Management of interest rate exposure. The results of the various interest rate risk analyses are used to formulate A/LM strategies to achieve the desired risk profile while managing to objectives for capital adequacy and liquidity risk exposures. Specifically, risk positions are managed by purchasing securities, issuing term debt with floating or fixed interest rates, and using derivatives. Interest rate swaps and options are predominantly used, which modify the interest rate characteristics of certain assets and liabilities.
Figure 22 shows all swap positions held for A/LM purposes. These positions are used to convert the contractual interest rate index of agreed-upon amounts of assets and liabilities (i.e., notional amounts) to another interest rate index. For example, fixed-rate debt is converted to a floating rate through a “receive fixed/pay variable” interest rate swap. The volume, maturity, and mix of portfolio swaps change frequently to reflect broader A/LM objectives and the balance sheet positions to be hedged. For more information about how interest rate swaps are used to manage the risk profile, see Note 7 (“Derivatives and Hedging Activities”).

Liquidity risk management
Liquidity risk, which is inherent in the banking industry, is measured by our ability to accommodate liability maturities and deposit withdrawals, meet contractual obligations, and fund new business opportunities at a reasonable cost, in a timely manner, and without adverse consequences. Liquidity management involves maintaining sufficient and diverse sources of funding to accommodate planned, as well as unanticipated, changes in assets and liabilities under both normal and adverse conditions.
Factors affecting liquidity
Our liquidity could be adversely affected by both direct and indirect events. An example of a direct event would be a downgrade in our public credit ratings by a rating agency. Examples of indirect events (events unrelated to us) that could impair our access to liquidity would be an act of terrorism or war, natural disasters, global pandemics (including COVID-19), political events, or the default or bankruptcy of a major corporation, mutual fund, or hedge fund. Similarly, market speculation, or rumors about us or the banking industry in general, may adversely affect the cost and availability of normal funding sources. See Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors section “IV. Liquidity Risk” in our 2021 Form 10-K for a discussion of how the COVID-19 global pandemic has impacted our liquidity and may continue to impact it in the future.
Our credit ratings at June 30, 2022, are shown in Figure 23. We believe these credit ratings, under normal conditions in the capital markets, would enable KeyCorp or KeyBank to issue fixed income securities to investors.

Sources of liquidity
Our primary sources of funding for KeyBank include customer deposits, wholesale funding, and liquid assets. As of June 30, 2022, our consolidated loan-to-deposit ratio was 78%. In addition, we also have access to various sources of wholesale funding, maintain a portfolio of liquid assets, and have borrowing capacity at the FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland. Our liquid asset portfolio at June 30, 2022, totaled $34.7 billion, consisting of $33.0 billion of unpledged securities, $13.9 million of securities available for secured funding at the FHLB, and $1.7 billion of net balances of federal funds sold and balances in our Federal Reserve account. Additionally, as of June 30, 2022, our unused borrowing capacity secured by loan collateral was $30.3 billion at the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and $7.7 billion at the FHLB. During the second quarter of 2022, our secured term borrowings increased
$5.8 billion as additional advances were taken. If the cash flows needed to support operating and investing activities are not satisfied by deposit balances, we rely on wholesale funding or on-balance sheet liquid reserves. Conversely, excess cash generated by operating, investing, and deposit-gathering activities may be used to repay outstanding debt or invest in liquid assets.
Liquidity for KeyCorp
The primary source of liquidity for KeyCorp is from subsidiary dividends, primarily from KeyBank. KeyCorp has sufficient liquidity when it can service its debt; support customary corporate operations and activities (including acquisitions); support occasional guarantees of subsidiaries’ obligations in transactions with third parties at a reasonable cost, in a timely manner, and without adverse consequences; and fund capital distributions in the form of dividends and share buybacks.
At June 30, 2022, KeyCorp held $3.2 billion in cash, which we projected to be sufficient to meet our projected obligations, including the repayment of our maturing debt obligations for the periods prescribed by our risk tolerance.
Typically, KeyCorp meets its liquidity requirements through regular dividends from KeyBank, supplemented with term debt. On May 23, 2022, KeyCorp issued $600 million of 3.878% Fixed-to-Floating Senior Notes due May 23, 2025 and $750 million of 4.789% Fixed-to-Floating Senior Notes due June 1, 2033. During the second quarter of 2022, KeyBank paid $200 million in cash dividends to KeyCorp. As of June 30, 2022, KeyBank had regulatory capacity to pay $1.5 billion in dividends to KeyCorp without prior regulatory approval.
Our liquidity position and recent activity
Over the past quarter, our liquid asset portfolio, which includes overnight and short-term investments, as well as unencumbered, high quality liquid securities held as protection against a range of potential liquidity stress scenarios, has decreased primarily from a decrease in cash balances resulting from the cash consumption related to loan growth and deposit outflow. The liquid asset portfolio continues to exceed the amount that we estimate would be necessary to manage through an adverse liquidity event by providing sufficient time to develop and execute a longer-term solution. Key also experienced a decrease in its liquid asset portfolio due to market value reductions caused by increasing rates.
From time to time, KeyCorp or KeyBank may seek to retire, repurchase, or exchange outstanding debt, capital securities, preferred shares, or Common Shares through cash purchase, privately negotiated transactions or other means. Additional information on repurchases of Common Shares by KeyCorp is included in Part II, Item 5. Market for the Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities beginning on page 41 of our 2021 Form 10-K and Part II, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q. Such transactions depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity and capital requirements, contractual restrictions, regulatory requirements, and other factors. The amounts involved may be material, individually or collectively.
The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows summarize our sources and uses of cash by type of activity for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021.
For more information regarding liquidity governance structure, factors affecting liquidity, management of liquidity risk at KeyBank and KeyCorp, long-term liquidity strategies, and other liquidity programs, see “Liquidity Risk Management” beginning on page 81 of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from an obligor’s inability or failure to meet contractual payment or performance terms. Like other financial services institutions, we make loans, extend credit, distribute credit risk, purchase securities, provide financial and payments products, and enter into financial derivative contracts, all of which have related credit risk.
Credit policy, approval, and evaluation
We manage credit risk exposure through a multifaceted program. The Credit Risk Committee approves management credit policies and recommends significant credit policies to the Enterprise Risk Management
Committee, the KeyBank Board, and the Risk Committee of the KeyCorp Board for approval. These policies are communicated throughout the organization to foster a consistent approach to granting credit.
Our credit risk management team and certain individuals within our lines of business, to whom credit risk management has delegated limited credit authority, are responsible for credit approval. Individuals with assigned credit authority are authorized to grant exceptions to credit policies. It is not unusual to make exceptions to established policies when mitigating circumstances dictate, however, a corporate level tolerance has been established to keep exceptions at an acceptable level based upon portfolio and economic considerations.
Our credit risk management team uses risk models to evaluate consumer loans. These models, known as scorecards, forecast the probability of serious delinquency and default for an applicant. The scorecards are embedded in the application processing system, which allows for real-time scoring and automated decisions for many of our products. We periodically validate the loan scoring processes.
We maintain an active concentration management program to mitigate concentration risk in our credit portfolios. For individual obligors, we employ a sliding scale of exposure, known as hold limits, which is dictated by the type of loan and strength of the borrower.
Allowance for loan and lease losses
We estimate the appropriate level of the ALLL on at least a quarterly basis. The methodology used is described in Note 1 (“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”) under the heading “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” beginning on page 109 of our 2021 Form 10-K. Briefly, the ALLL estimate uses various models and estimation techniques based on our historical loss experience, current borrower characteristics, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts and other relevant factors. The ALLL at June 30, 2022, represents our best estimate of the lifetime expected credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at that date.
As shown in Figure 24, our ALLL from continuing operations increased by $38 million, or 3.6%, from December 31, 2021. The commercial ALLL increased by $21 million, or 3.1%, from December 31, 2021, through June 30, 2022. Our consumer ALLL increased by $17 million, or 4.6%, from December 31, 2021, through June 30, 2022. Refer to Note 4 (“Asset Quality”) within this report for further discussion of changes in the ALLL.

Net loan charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2022, increased $22 million compared to the year-ago quarter. For 2022, we expect net loan charge-offs to average loans to range between 15 - 25 basis points.

Figure 28 shows the composition of our nonperforming assets. As shown in Figure 28, nonperforming assets at June 30, 2022, decreased $26 million from December 31, 2021. This decrease was primarily driven by continual declines in our nonperforming loan balance.
See Note 1 (“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”) of our 2021 Form 10-K under the headings “Nonperforming Loans,” “Impaired Loans,” and “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” for a summary of our nonaccrual and charge-off policies.

(c)Restructured loans (i.e., TDRs) are those for which Key, for reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. These concessions are made to improve the collectability of the loan and generally take the form of a reduction of the interest rate, extension of the maturity date or reduction in the principal balance.

Operational and compliance risk management
Like all businesses, we are subject to operational risk, which is the risk of loss resulting from human error or malfeasance, inadequate or failed internal processes and systems, and external events. These events include, among other things, threats to our cybersecurity, as we are reliant upon information systems and the internet to conduct our business activities. Operational risk intersects with compliance risk, which is the risk of loss from violations of, or noncompliance with, laws, rules and regulations, prescribed practices, and ethical standards. This includes our compliance with lending programs established by the CARES Act, including the PPP and Main Street Lending Program. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, large financial companies like Key are subject to heightened prudential standards and regulation. This heightened level of regulation has increased our operational risk. While operational and compliance risk are separate risk disciplines in KeyCorp’s ERM framework, losses and/or additional regulatory compliance costs are included in operational loss reporting and could take the form of explicit charges, increased operational costs, harm to our reputation, or foregone opportunities.
We seek to mitigate operational risk through identification and measurement of risk, alignment of business strategies with risk appetite and tolerance, and a system of internal controls and reporting. We continuously strive to strengthen our system of internal controls to improve the oversight of our operational risk and to ensure compliance with laws, rules, and regulations. For example, an operational event database tracks the amounts and sources of operational risk and losses. This tracking mechanism helps to identify weaknesses and to highlight the need to take corrective action. We also rely upon software programs designed to assist in assessing operational risk and monitoring our control processes. This technology has enhanced the reporting of the effectiveness of our controls to senior management and the Board.
The Operational Risk Management Program provides the framework for the structure, governance, roles, and responsibilities, as well as the content, to manage operational risk for Key. The Compliance Risk Management Program serves the same function in managing compliance risk for Key. The Operational Risk Committee and the Compliance Risk Committee support the ERM Committee by identifying early warning events and trends, escalating emerging risks, and discussing forward-looking assessments. Both the Operational Risk Committee and the Compliance Risk Committee include attendees from each of the Three Lines of Defense. Primary responsibility for managing and monitoring internal control mechanisms lies with the managers of our various lines of business. The Operational Risk Committee and Compliance Risk Committee are senior management committees that oversee our level of operational and compliance risk and direct and support our operational and compliance infrastructure and related activities. These committees and the Operational Risk Management and Compliance Risk Management functions are an integral part of our ERM Program. Our Risk Review function regularly assesses the overall effectiveness of our Operational Risk Management and Compliance Risk Management Programs and our system of internal controls. Risk Review reports the results of reviews on internal controls and systems to senior
management and the Risk and Audit Committees and independently supports the Risk Committee’s oversight of these controls.
Cybersecurity
We maintain comprehensive Cyber Incident Response Plans, and we devote significant time and resources to maintaining and regularly updating our technology systems and processes to protect the security of our computer systems, software, networks, and other technology assets against attempts to obtain unauthorized access to confidential information, destroy data, disrupt or degrade service, sabotage systems, shut down access to systems for ransom, or cause other damage. As the threat landscape continues to evolve, critical infrastructure, including financial services, remains a top target for cyberattacks. COVID-19 has created a unique situation globally with many more employees and third-party service providers working from home, which inherently introduces additional risk. Cyberattacks may include, but are not limited to, attacks that are intended to disrupt or disable banking services and prevent banking transactions, attempts to breach the security of systems and data, and social engineering attempts aimed at tricking employees and clients into providing sensitive information or executing financial transactions.
Cyberattack risks may also occur with our third-party technology service providers and may result in financial loss or liability that could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. Cyberattacks could also interfere with third-party providers’ ability to fulfill their contractual obligations to us. Recent high-profile cyberattacks have targeted retailers, credit bureaus, and other businesses for the purpose of acquiring the confidential information (including personal, financial, and credit card information) of their customers. Recently, there have also been numerous highly publicized cases where hackers requested ransom payments in exchange for not disclosing
customer information or to restore company access to locked systems. We may incur expenses related to the investigation of such attacks or related to the protection of our customers from identity theft as a result of such attacks. We may also incur expenses to enhance our systems or processes to protect against cyber or other security incidents. Risks and exposures related to cyberattacks are expected to remain high for the foreseeable future due to the rapidly evolving nature and sophistication of these threats, as well as due to the expanding use of Internet banking, mobile banking, and other technology-based products and services by us and our clients. To date, Key has not experienced material disruption of our operations, or material harm to our customers, as a result of the heightened threat landscape of cyberattacks.
As described in more detail starting on page 73 of our 2021 Form 10-K under the heading “Risk Management — Overview,” the Board serves in an oversight capacity ensuring that Key’s risks are managed in a manner that is effective and balanced and adds value for the shareholders. The Board’s Risk Committee has primary oversight for enterprise-wide risk at KeyCorp, including operational risk (which includes cybersecurity). The Risk Committee reviews and provides oversight of management’s activities related to the enterprise-wide risk management framework, including cyber-related risk. Board members are updated on cybersecurity matters at each regularly-scheduled Board meeting. The ERM Committee, chaired by the Chief Executive Officer and comprising other senior level executives, is responsible for managing risk (including cyber-related risk) and ensuring that the corporate risk profile is managed in a manner consistent with our risk appetite. The ERM Committee reports to the Board’s Risk Committee.
GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations
Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not
audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors to evaluate a company,
they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, nor as a substitute for analyses
of results as reported under GAAP.
The tangible common equity ratio and the return on tangible common equity ratio have been a focus for some investors, and management believes that these ratios may assist investors in analyzing Key’s capital position without regard to the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock. Since analysts and banking regulators may assess our capital adequacy using tangible common equity, we believe it is useful to enable investors to assess our capital adequacy on these same bases.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, average intangible assets exclude $2 million, and $4 million, respectively, of average purchased credit card receivables.
The cash efficiency ratio is a ratio of two non-GAAP performance measures, adjusted noninterest expense and total taxable-equivalent revenue. Accordingly, there is no directly comparable GAAP performance measure. The cash efficiency ratio excludes the impact of our intangible asset amortization from the calculation. We believe this ratio provides greater consistency and comparability between our results and those of our peer banks. Additionally, this ratio is used by analysts and investors to evaluate how effectively management is controlling noninterest expenses in generating revenue, as they develop earnings forecasts and peer bank analysis.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our business is dynamic and complex. Consequently, we must exercise judgment in choosing and applying accounting policies and methodologies. These choices are critical – not only are they necessary to comply with GAAP, they also reflect our view of the appropriate way to record and report our overall financial performance. All accounting policies are important, and all policies described in Note 1 (“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”) beginning on page 107 of our 2021 Form 10-K should be reviewed for a greater understanding of how we record and report our financial performance. Note 1 (“Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies”) of this report should also be reviewed for more information on accounting standards that have been adopted during the period.
In our opinion, some accounting policies are more likely than others to have a critical effect on our financial results and to expose those results to potentially greater volatility. These policies apply to areas of relatively greater business importance or require us to exercise judgment and to make assumptions and estimates that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Because these assumptions and estimates are based on current circumstances, they may prove to be inaccurate, or we may find it necessary to change them.
We rely heavily on the use of judgment, assumptions, and estimates to make a number of core decisions, including accounting for the ALLL; contingent liabilities, guarantees and income taxes; derivatives and related hedging activities; and assets and liabilities that involve valuation methodologies. In addition, we may employ outside valuation experts to assist us in determining fair values of certain assets and liabilities. A brief discussion of each of these areas appears on pages 91 through 95 of our 2021 Form 10-K. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we did not significantly alter the manner in which we applied our critical accounting policies or developed related assumptions and estimates.
Accounting and Reporting Developments
Accounting Guidance Pending Adoption at June 30, 2022
| Standard | Required Adoption | Description | Effect on Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters | ||||||||
| ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805) | January 1, 2023 Early adoption is permitted. | At the acquisition date, an acquirer must account for any acquired revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts (i.e. measure contract assets and liabilities, generally consistent with acquiree's financial statements). The guidance should be applied on a prospective basis. | The guidance is not expected to have a material impact on Key’s financial condition or results of operations. | ||||||||
| ASU 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) | January 1, 2023 Early adoption is permitted. | This guidance allows entities to apply the same portfolio hedging method to both prepayable and nonprepayable financial assets. It also allows multiple hedged layers to be designated for a single closed portfolio of financial assets or one or more beneficial interests secured by a portfolio of financial instruments. If a breach is anticipated, an entity is required to partially or fully dedesignate a hedged layer or layers until a breach is no longer anticipated. There are additional requirements and enhanced disclosures related to basis adjustments. The guidance should be applied on a prospective, retrospective or modified retrospective basis depending on the amendment. | The guidance is not expected to have a material impact on Key’s financial condition or results of operations. | ||||||||
| ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) | January 1, 2023 Early adoption is permitted. | The amendments eliminate current Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR) guidance and instead require entities to apply the loan refinancing and restructuring guidance to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or is a continuation of an existing loan. Entities must disclose current-period gross write-offs on an amortized cost basis by credit quality indicator and class of financing receivable by year of origination. The guidance should be applied on a prospective basis except for amendments related to recognition and measurement of TDRs, where a modified retrospective transition method is optional. | Key is still evaluating the impact on its financial statements and disclosures. | ||||||||
| ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement - Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (Topic 820) | December 15, 2023 Early adoption is permitted. | The amendments clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and is not considered in measuring fair value. Entities cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. The amendments require disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual restrictions including; the fair value of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions reflected in the balance sheet, the nature and remaining duration of the restriction(s) and the circumstances that could cause a lapse in the restriction(s). The guidance should be applied prospectively with any adjustments from the adoption of the amendments recognized in earnings and disclosed on the date of adoption. | The guidance is not expected to have a material impact on Key’s financial condition or results of operations. |
