 Footnotes

    1. Includes finance company subsidiaries of bank holding companies, but not of retailers and banks.
    2. Owned receivables are those carried on the balance sheet of the institution. Managed receivables are outstanding balances of
       pools upon which securities have been issued; these balances are no longer carried on the balance sheets of the loan originator.
       Data are shown before deductions for unearned income and losses. Components may not add to totals because of rounding.
    3. The series may contain breaks that result from discontinuities in source data. Growth rates are adjusted to exclude the effect
       of such breaks. In addition, percent changes are at a simple annual rate and are calculated from unrounded data.
    4. Flow data represent changes in the level of credit due to economic and financial activity, and exclude breaks in the data series
       due to changes in methodology, source data, and other technical aspects of the estimation that could affect the level of credit.
    5. Covers most of the captive and non-captive finance companies. The series of finance company car loan terms included in previous
       releases are discontinued. They remain available from the Data Download Program.
    6. Excludes revolving credit reported as held by depository institutions that are subsidiaries of finance companies.

       appliances, apparel, boats, and recreation vehicles.
