During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, for the PCI loan portfolios, the Corporation recorded a benefit of $248 million and a benefit of $707 million in the provision for credit losses with a corresponding decrease in the valuation allowance included as part of the allowance for loan and lease losses. This compared to a benefit of $166 million and an expense of $327 million in the provision for credit losses for the same periods in 2012. Write-offs in the PCI loan portfolios totaled $443 million and $1.6 billion with a corresponding decrease in the PCI valuation allowance during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to write-offs in the PCI loan portfolios of $1.7 billion for both of the same periods in 2012. Write-offs during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 included certain home equity PCI loans that were ineligible for the National Mortgage Settlement, but had similar characteristics as the eligible loans and the expectation of future cash proceeds was considered remote. The valuation allowance associated with the PCI loan portfolios was $3.2 billion and $5.5 billion at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
The table below presents the allowance and the carrying value of outstanding loans and leases by portfolio segment at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
