From the sample of financial institutions studied in this section of the study, the Staff observed
that fair value measurements were used to measure a minority of the assets (45%) and liabilities
(15%) included in financial institutions’ balance sheets. The percentage of assets for which
changes in fair value affected income was significantly less (25%), reflecting the mark-to-market
requirements for trading and derivative investments. However, for those same financial
institutions, the Staff observed that fair value measurements did significantly affect financial
institutions’ reported income.
