Borrowers
As individual borrowers may have loans across more than one industry or region (and each loan may be rated differently) tables sum to more than the total number of borrowers.

Rounding
Dollar values displayed in these tables have been rounded to whole numbers and may sum to slightly above/below the total. Percentage estimates displayed within the tables have been rounded to one decimal place and may not sum to exactly 100.0%
