Hanmi Bank

The principal objective of our liquidity management program is to maintain the Bank’s ability to meet the day-to-day cash flow requirements of our customers who wish either to withdraw funds or to draw upon credit facilities to meet their cash needs. Management believes that the Bank, on a stand-alone basis, has adequate liquid assets to meet its current obligations. The Bank’s primary funding source will continue to be deposits originating from its branch platform. The Bank’s wholesale funds historically consisted of FHLB advances and brokered deposits. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Bank had $150.0 million and $90.0 million of FHLB advances and $206.5 million and $264.2 million, respectively, of brokered deposits. The Bank had no advances with the FRB under the PPPLF as of September 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019. There were no outstanding borrowings with the FRB as of September 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

We monitor the sources and uses of funds on a regular basis to maintain an acceptable liquidity position. The Bank’s primary source of borrowings is the FHLB, from which the Bank is eligible to borrow up to 30.0 percent of its assets. As of September 30, 2020, the remaining available borrowing capacity was $1.43 billion compared with $878.4 million, as of December 31, 2019.

The amount that the FHLB is willing to advance differs based on the quality and character of qualifying collateral pledged by the Bank, and the FHLB may adjust the advance rates for qualifying collateral upwards or downwards from time to time. To the extent deposit renewals and deposit growth are not sufficient to fund maturing and withdrawable deposits, repay maturing borrowings, fund existing and future loans, leases and securities, and otherwise fund working capital needs and capital expenditures, the Bank may utilize the remaining borrowing capacity from its FHLB borrowing arrangement.
