As of September 30, 2017, intangible assets, net of amortization, includes $3,994 million of customer relationships and $47 million of finite-lived trademarks, as well as $48 million of non-amortizable assets consisting mainly of indefinite-lived trademarks. Amortization expense for the quarter to these intangible assets was $169 million. Settlement Activity We manage certain integrated electronic payment services and programs and wealth management processes for our clients that require us to hold and manage client cash balances used to fund their daily settlement activity. Settlement deposits represent funds we hold that were drawn from our clients to facilitate settlement activities. Settlement receivables represent amounts funded by us. Settlement payables consist of settlement deposits from clients, settlement payables to third parties, and outstanding checks related to our settlement activities for which the right of offset does not exist or we do not intend to exercise our right of offset. Our accounting policy for such outstanding checks is to include them in settlement payables on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) and operating cash flows on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited).
