"Our business model is well positioned to generate earnings and excess capital even in an economic environment that is likely to be among the weakest in many years. We believe we have the capital strength, funding resources and comprehensive liquidity plans to manage successfully through difficult market conditions.

For now, though, we plan to be very selective with our investment dollars, balancing near term performance with longer term profitability."

On a managed basis(1) the net loan write-off rate was 5.9%, up from 5.3% in the second quarter and 3.0% a year ago. Owned net write-offs were 6.1% in the quarter, up from 5.8% in the second quarter and 3.0% a year ago.
