During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, for the PCI loan portfolios, the Corporation recorded a provision benefit of $207 million and provision expense of $487 million with a corresponding change in the valuation allowance included as part of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Subsequent to the substantial fulfillment of the principal reduction commitments associated with the National Mortgage Settlement, the Corporation reviewed certain PCI loans that were ineligible for the program but had similar characteristics as the eligible PCI loans. Based on this review, the Corporation updated its estimates as to the likelihood of any proceeds being received from the ineligible PCI loans and wrote off the loans where the expectation of future cash proceeds is now considered remote. This primarily resulted in write-offs in the PCI loan portfolios of $839 million with a corresponding decrease in the PCI valuation allowance during the three months ended March 31, 2013. The valuation allowance associated with the PCI loan portfolios was $4.5 billion and $5.5 billion at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
The table below presents the allowance and the carrying value of outstanding loans and leases by portfolio segment at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
