  • Based on year-end balances and year-end local currency effective interest rates, including the effects from hedging.
  • Included in total long-term borrowings were $481 million and $604 million of obligations to holders of GICs at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. These obligations included conditions under which certain GIC holders could require immediate repayment of their investment should the long-term credit ratings of GECC fall below AA-/Aa3. Following the April 3, 2012 Moody's downgrade of GECC's long-term credit rating to A1, substantially all of these GICs became redeemable by their holders. In 2012, holders of $386 million in principal amount of GICs redeemed their holdings and GECC made related cash payments. The remaining outstanding GICs will continue to be subject to their scheduled maturities and individual terms, which may include provisions permitting redemption upon a downgrade of one or more of GECC's ratings, among other things.
  • Included $9,468 million and $9,757 million of funding secured by real estate, aircraft and other collateral at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, of which $2,868 million and $3,294 million is non-recourse to GECC at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
  • Included $300 million of subordinated notes guaranteed by GE at both December 31, 2013 and 2012.

  • Includes $2,981 million of subordinated debentures, which constitute the sole assets of trusts who have issued trust preferred securities and where GECC owns 100% of the common securities of the trusts. Obligations associated with these trusts are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by GECC.
  • Included at December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $9,047 million and $7,707 million of current portion of long-term borrowings, respectively, and $21,077 million and $22,416 million of long-term borrowings, respectively. See Note 16.
