(a) Represents the outstanding balance immediately prior to modification. In
certain modifications the principal balance was reduced in the aggregate
amount of $4 million, $24 million and $59 million for the years ended
December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
(b) Includes principal and accrued interest.
The Company has evaluated the primary financial effects of the impact
of the changes to an account upon modification as follows:
Temporary Interest Rate Reduction: For the years ended
December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the average interest rate
reduction was 10 percentage points, 12 percentage points and 11
percentage points, respectively. None of these interest rate
reductions had a significant impact on interest on loans in the
Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company does not offer
interest rate reduction programs for U.S. Card Services (USCS)
Card Member receivables as these receivables are non-interest
bearing.
Placing Card Members on a Fixed Payment Plan: For the years
ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the average payment
term extension was approximately 12 months, 13 months, and 15
months, respectively, for USCS Card Member receivables. For USCS
Card Member loans, there have been no payment term extensions.
The following table provides information for the years ended
December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, with respect to the Card Member
loans and receivables modified as TDRs that subsequently defaulted
within 12 months of modification. A Card Member will default from a
modification program after one and up to two consecutive missed
payments, depending on the terms of the modification program. For
all Card Members that defaulted from a modification program, the
probability of default is factored into the reserves for Card Member
loans and receivables. The defaulted ICS Card Member loan and
receivable modifications were not significant.
