Allowance for Credit Losses ("ACL") Build Over the Last Four Quarters Over the last five quarters we have increased our total ACL by a net $162 million. A large part of this increase was attributable to our $9.8 billion cumulative combined growth in total outstanding loans and unfunded loan commitments. The increase in our overall ACL percentage from 0.83% of total outstanding loans and unfunded loan commitments at June 30, 2022 to 1.00% at September 30, 2023 primarily reflected changes in economic assumptions as the Fed increased the Fed funds target rate by 525 bps. Over the last five quarters, we maintained a cautious outlook on macroeconomic conditions. Accordingly, in calculating our ACL, we have more heavily weighted the collective downside scenarios, specifically Moody's S4 (Alternative Adverse Downside) and S6 (Stagflation) scenarios, than Moody's Baseline scenario. All of this has resulted in cumulative provision expense of $194 million even as our cumulative net charge-offs were only $32 million.
