Assets under management include assets in our mutual funds, alternative investment funds and separately managed accounts for
institutional and individual investors. Substantially all assets under management are valued as of calendar month-end. Assets
under management do not include:
assets in brokerage accounts that generate commissions, mark-ups and spreads based on transactional activity;
our own investments in funds that we manage; or
non-fee-paying assets, including interest-bearing deposits held through our bank depository institution subsidiaries.
The following table sets forth our assets under management by asset class:

(1) Primarily includes hedge funds, private equity, real estate, currencies, commodities and asset allocation strategies.
Assets under management typically generate fees as apercentage
of asset value, which is affected by investment performance and
by in ows and redemptions. The fees that we charge vary by asset
class, as do our related expenses. In certain circumstances, we are
also entitled to receive incentive fees based on apercentage of a
fund’s return or when the return on assets under
management exceeds speci ed benchmark returns or other
performance targets. Incentive fees are recognized when
the performanceperiod ends (in most cases, on December31)
and they are no longer subject to adjustment.
