Regulatory Capital and Other Regulatory Matters

Regulatory Capital and Other Regulatory Matters

We are required to comply with a wide variety of laws and regulations. The International Segment includes the operations of certain stand-alone entities that operate in local markets as either banks or regulated finance companies and are subject to regulatory restrictions. These regulatory restrictions, among other things, require that these entities meet certain minimum capital requirements and may restrict dividend distributions and ownership of certain assets. We were in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements as most recently reported. The following table lists the most recently reported minimum statutory capital requirements and the actual statutory capital for our significant regulated international banks:

Country	Minimum Capital Requirement		Actual Capital
Germany	8.0	%	18.1	%
Brazil	11.0	%	13.4	%

Total assets of our regulated international banks and finance companies were approximately $11.1 billion and $11.4 billion at December 31, 2015 and 2014.
