theflyonthewall.com: Wells Fargo to add $48B in assets to balance sheet
The company said: "The adoption of FAS 166/167 in January, 2010, will require us to consolidate certain off-balance sheet assets not currently included in our consolidated financial statements. Currently, we estimate that FAS 166/167 will cause us to add approximately $48B in assets, or $25B in risk-weighted assets, based on information as of the end of third quarter 2009." :theflyonthewall.com

theflyonthewall.com: Wells Fargo says $5.3B settlement does not result in current period charges
The company said that, as of December 31, 2011, the company had fully accrued for the Foreclosure Assistance Payment. Similarly, as of December 31, 2011, the expected impact of the Consumer Relief Program was covered in our allowance for credit losses and in the non-accretable difference relating to our purchased credit-impaired residential mortgage portfolio. The Refinance Program will not result in any current-period charge as the impact of this program will be recognized over a period of years in the form of lower interest income as qualified borrowers benefit from reduced interest rates on loans refinanced under the program. :theflyonthewall.com

theflyonthewall.com: DOJ announces $25B settlement with five largest mortgage servicers
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, Department of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan, Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller and Colorado Attorney General John W. Suthers announced that the federal government and 49 state attorneys general have reached a landmark $25B agreement with the nation’s five largest mortgage servicers to address mortgage loan servicing and foreclosure abuses. The joint federal-state group entered into the agreement with the nation’s five largest mortgage servicers: Bank of America Corporation (BAC), JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Wells Fargo & Company (WFC), Citigroup (C) and Ally Financial, formerly GMAC. The joint federal-state agreement requires servicers to implement comprehensive new mortgage loan servicing standards and to commit $25 billion to resolve violations of state and federal law. Under the terms of the agreement, the servicers are required to collectively dedicate $20B toward various forms of financial relief to borrowers. Mortgage servicers are required to fulfill these obligations within three years. In addition to the $20 billion in financial relief for borrowers, the agreement requires the servicers to pay $5B in cash to the federal and state governments. :theflyonthewall.com
