THE GOLDMAN SACHS GROUP, INC.  AND SUBSIDIARIES Management’s Discussion and Analysis Operating Expenses Our operating expenses are primarily influenced by compensation, headcount and levels of business activity.
Compensation and benefits includes salaries, discretionary compensation, amortization of equity awards and other items such as benefits.
Discretionary compensation is significantly impacted by, among other factors, the level of net revenues, overall financial performance, prevailing labor markets, business mix, the structure of our sharebased compensation programs and the external environment.
In addition, see “Use of Estimates” for additional information about expenses that may arise from litigation and regulatory proceedings.
The table below presents our operating expenses and total staff (which includes employees, consultants and temporary staff).
## Table 0 ##
1.
Consists of changes in reserves related to our Americas reinsurance business, including interest credited to policyholder account balances, and expenses related to property catastrophe reinsurance claims.
In April 2013, we completed the sale of a majority stake in our Americas reinsurance business and no longer consolidate this business.2.
Includes provisions of $3.37 billion recorded during 2015 for the agreement in principle with the RMBS Working Group.
See Note 27 to the consolidated financial statements for further information about this agreement in principle.2015 versus 2014.
Operating expenses on the consolidated statements of earnings were $25.04 billion for 2015, 13% higher than 2014.
Compensation and benefits expenses on the consolidated statements of earnings were $12.68 billion for 2015, essentially unchanged compared with 2014.
The ratio of compensation and benefits to net revenues for 2015 was 37.5% compared with 36.8% for 2014.
Total staff increased 8% during 2015, primarily due to activity levels in certain businesses and continued investment in regulatory compliance.
Non-compensation expenses on the consolidated statements of earnings were $12.36 billion for 2015, 30% higher than 2014, due to significantly higher net provisions for mortgage-related litigation and regulatory matters, which are included in other expenses.
This increase was partially offset by lower depreciation and amortization expenses, primarily reflecting lower impairment charges related to consolidated investments, and a reduction in expenses related to the sale of Metro in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Net provisions for litigation and regulatory proceedings for 2015 were $4.01 billion compared with $754 million for 2014 (both primarily comprised of net provisions for mortgage-related matters).2015 included a $148 million charitable contribution to Goldman Sachs Gives, our donor-advised fund.
Compensation was reduced to fund this charitable contribution to Goldman Sachs Gives.
The firm asks its participating managing directors to make recommendations regarding potential charitable recipients for this contribution.2014 versus 2013.
Operating expenses on the consolidated statements of earnings were $22.17 billion for 2014, essentially unchanged compared with 2013.
Compensation and benefits expenses on the consolidated statements of earnings were $12.69 billion for 2014, essentially unchanged compared with 2013.
The ratio of compensation and benefits to net revenues for 2014 was 36.8% compared with 36.9% for 2013.
Total staff increased 3% during 2014.
Non-compensation expenses on the consolidated statements of earnings were $9.48 billion for 2014, 4% lower than 2013.
The decrease compared with 2013 included a decrease in other expenses, due to lower net provisions for litigation and regulatory proceedings and lower operating expenses related to consolidated investments, as well as a decline in insurance reserves, reflecting the sale of our Americas reinsurance business in 2013.
These decreases were partially offset by an increase in brokerage, clearing, exchange and distribution fees.
Net provisions for litigation and regulatory proceedings for 2014 were $754 million compared with $962 million for 2013 (both primarily comprised of net provisions for mortgage-related matters).2014 included a charitable contribution of $137 million to Goldman Sachs Gives, our donor-advised fund.
Compensation was reduced to fund this charitable contribution to Goldman Sachs Gives.
The firm asks its participating managing directors to make recommendations regarding potential charitable recipients for this contribution.
Money Pool — Xcel Energy and its utility subsidiaries have established a utility money pool arrangement that allows for short-term investments in and borrowings from the utility subsidiaries between each other.
The Holding Company may make investments in the utility subsidiaries at market-based interest rates.
However, the money pool arrangement does not allow the utility subsidiaries to make investments in the Holding Company.
At Dec.  31, 2009 and 2008, Xcel Energy and its utility subsidiaries had money pool investments outstanding of $84.0 million and $104.5 million, respectively.
The money pool balances are eliminated upon consolidation.
The weighted average interest rates at Dec.  31, 2009 and 2008 were 0.36 percent and 3.48 percent, respectively.6.
Long-Term Borrowings and Other Financing Instruments Credit Facilities — At Dec.  31, 2009, Xcel Energy and its utility subsidiaries had the following committed credit facilities available:
## Table 1 ##
(a) Includes direct borrowings, outstanding commercial paper and issued and outstanding letters of credit.
(b) NSP-Wisconsin does not have a separate credit facility; however, it has a borrowing agreement with NSP-Minnesota.
The lines of credit provide short-term financing in the form of notes payable to banks, letters of credit and back-up support for commercial paper borrowings.
Xcel Energy and its utility subsidiaries have the right to request an extension of the final maturity date by one year.
The maturity extension is subject to majority bank group approval.  ?
Each credit facility has one financial covenant requiring that the debt-to-total-capitalization ratio of each entity be less than or equal to 65 percent.
Each entity was in compliance at Dec.  31, 2009 and 2008 as evidenced by the table below:
## Table 2 ##
If Xcel Energy or any of its utility subsidiaries do not comply with the covenant, it is deemed an event of default and any outstanding amounts due under the facility can be declared due by the lender.  ?
Each credit facility has a cross default provision that provides the borrower will be in default on its borrowings under the facility if any of its subsidiaries, comprising more than 15 percent of the consolidated assets, defaults on any of its indebtedness greater than $50 million.  ?
The interest rates under these lines of credit are based on either the agent bank’s prime rate or the applicable LIBOR, plus a borrowing margin based on the applicable debt rating.
Based on our current credit ratings, the borrowing margin is 35 basis points for Xcel Energy, PSCo and SPS, and 25 basis points for NSP-Minnesota.  ?
The commitment fees, also based on applicable debt ratings, are calculated on the unused portion of the lines of credit at 8 basis points per year for Xcel Energy, PSCo and SPS, and at 6 basis points per year for NSP-Minnesota.  ?
At Dec.  31, 2009, the credit facilities were used to provide backup for $459.0 million of commercial paper outstanding and $21.0 million of letters of credit.
