Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Schedule of Derivative Instruments
The following tables present derivative instruments included on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in derivative assets and liabilities at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Balances are presented on a gross basis, prior to the application of counterparty and cash collateral netting. Total derivative assets and liabilities are adjusted on an aggregate basis to take into consideration the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements and have been reduced by the cash collateral received or paid.

Derivative [Line Items]  
Schedule of Derivative Instruments in Statement of Financial Position, Fair Value
The following table summarizes information related to fair value hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, including hedges of interest rate risk on long-term debt that were acquired as part of a business combination and redesignated at that time. At redesignation, the fair value of the derivatives was positive. As the derivatives mature, the fair value will approach zero. As a result, ineffectiveness will occur and the fair value changes in the derivatives and the long-term debt being hedged may be directionally the same in certain scenarios. Based on a regression analysis, the derivatives continue to be highly effective at offsetting changes in the fair value of the long-term debt attributable to interest rate risk.

Cash Flow and Net Investment Hedges
The table below summarizes certain information related to cash flow hedges and net investment hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Of the $763 million after-tax net loss ($1.2 billion pre-tax) on derivatives in accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI) at June 30, 2017, $141 million after-tax ($226 million pre-tax) is expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months. These net losses reclassified into earnings are expected to primarily reduce net interest income related to the respective hedged items. Amounts related to price risk on restricted stock awards reclassified from accumulated OCI are recorded in personnel expense. For terminated cash flow hedges, the time period over which the majority of the forecasted transactions are hedged is approximately seven years, with a maximum length of time for certain forecasted transactions of 19 years.

(2) 
Gains (losses) recognized in accumulated OCI are primarily related to the change in the Corporation’s stock price for the period.
(3) 
Substantially all of the gains in income reclassified from accumulated OCI are comprised of the gain recognized on derivatives used to hedge the currency risk of the Corporation's net investment in its non-U.S. consumer credit card business, which was sold on June 1, 2017. For additional information, see Note 12 – Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Other Risk Management Derivatives
The table below presents gains (losses) on these derivatives for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. These gains (losses) are largely offset by the income or expense that is recorded on the hedged item.

Net gains on these derivatives are recorded in mortgage banking income as they are used to mitigate the interest rate risk related to mortgage servicing rights (MSRs), interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) and mortgage loans held-for-sale, all of which are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in mortgage banking income. The net gains on IRLCs related to the origination of mortgage loans that are held-for-sale, which are not included in the table but are considered derivative instruments, were $60 million and $116 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $177 million and $329 million for the same periods in 2016.
(2) 
Primarily related to derivatives that are economic hedges of credit risk on loans. Net gains (losses) on these derivatives are recorded in other income.
(3) 
Primarily related to hedges of debt securities carried at fair value and hedges of foreign currency-denominated debt. Gains (losses) on these derivatives and the related hedged items are recorded in other income.
(4) 
Gains (losses) on these derivatives are recorded in personnel expense.
Schedule of Derivative Instruments Included in Trading Activities
The following table, which includes both derivatives and non-derivative cash instruments, identifies the amounts in the respective income statement line items attributable to the Corporation’s sales and trading revenue in Global Markets, categorized by primary risk, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The difference between total trading account profits in the following table and in the Consolidated Statement of Income represents trading activities in business segments other than Global Markets.

Offsetting Liabilities
The following table presents derivative instruments included in derivative assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 by primary risk (e.g., interest rate risk) and the platform, where applicable, on which these derivatives are transacted. Balances are presented on a gross basis, prior to the application of counterparty and cash collateral netting. Total gross derivative assets and liabilities are adjusted on an aggregate basis to take into consideration the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements which includes reducing the balance for counterparty netting and cash collateral received or paid.
For more information on offsetting of securities financing agreements, see Note 9 – Federal Funds Sold or Purchased, Securities Financing Agreements and Short-term Borrowings.

Over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives include bilateral transactions between the Corporation and a particular counterparty. OTC-cleared derivatives include bilateral transactions between the Corporation and a counterparty where the transaction is cleared through a clearinghouse, and exchange-traded derivatives include listed options transacted on an exchange.

Consists of derivatives entered into under master netting agreements where the enforceability of these agreements is uncertain under bankruptcy laws in some countries or industries.
(3) 
Derivative assets and liabilities reflect a central clearing counterparty's amendments to legally re-characterize daily cash variation margin from collateral, which secures an outstanding exposure, to settlement, which discharges an outstanding exposure, effective in January 2017.
(4) 
Amounts are limited to the derivative asset/liability balance and, accordingly, do not include excess collateral received/pledged. Financial instruments collateral includes securities collateral received or pledged and cash securities held and posted at third-party custodians that are not offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet but shown as a reduction to derive net derivative assets and liabilities.
