The change in goodwill for both the International Package and Supply Chain & Freight segments was primarily due to the impact of changes in the value of the U.S. Dollar on the translation of non-U.S. Dollar goodwill balances.

Goodwill Impairment
We completed our annual goodwill impairment assessment for all reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of July 1, 2019, and determined that goodwill is not impaired. There were no triggering events identified during the third quarter of 2019. We will continue to monitor each reporting unit for triggering events that might require an update to our annual impairment evaluation between the annual assessment date and December 31, 2019.
The following is a summary of intangible assets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in millions):

As of September 30, 2019, we had a trade name with a carrying value of $200 million and licenses with a carrying value of $4 million, which are deemed to be indefinite-lived intangible assets and are included in the table above. Impairment tests for the finite-lived intangible assets are only performed when a triggering event occurs that may indicate that the carrying value of the intangible may not be recoverable. There was no impairment of finite-lived assets in 2019 and a $12 million impairment in 2018.
