Finance company data are from the subsidiaries of the three major U.S. automobile manufacturers and are volume-weighted averages covering all loans of each type purchased during the month. 5. Outstanding balances of pools upon which securities have been issued; these balances are no longer carried on the balance sheets of the loan originators. 6.
