In connection with securitization transactions, we typically retain servicing responsibilities and residual assets. In certain instances, we receive annual servicing fees ranging from 0.05% to 0.20% of the outstanding balance. Included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets are our servicing assets at amortized cost and our residual assets at fair value. Our residual assets are subordinate to investors’ interests, and their values are subject to credit, prepayment and interest rate risks on the transferred financial assets. The investors and the securitization trusts have no recourse to our other assets for failure of debtors to pay when due. In computing gains and losses on securitizations, we use the same 8% discount rate we use for the fair value calculation of residual assets, which is determined based on a review of comparable market transactions.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our managed assets totaled $2.9 billion and $2.5 billion respectively, of which $1.8 billion and $1.7 billion were securitized assets held in unconsolidated securitization trusts. There were no securitization credit losses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 or 2014, and no material securitization delinquencies as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Based on the nature of the receivables and experience-to-date, we do not currently expect to incur any credit losses on the receivables sold.
