Segment Reporting

We operate in two reportable business segments: (1) Investment Banking and Capital Markets and (2) Asset Management. The Investment Banking and Capital Markets reportable business segment includes our securities, commodities, futures and foreign exchange capital markets activities and investment banking business, which is composed of financial advisory and underwriting activities. The Investment Banking and Capital Markets reportable business segment provides the sales, trading, origination and advisory effort for various fixed income, equity and advisory products and services. The Asset Management reportable business segment provides investment management services to investors in the U.S. and overseas and invests capital in hedge funds, separately managed accounts, third-party asset managers and other alternative investments.

On December 1, 2021, we have expanded the activities of our Asset Management reportable business segment to include alternative investment strategies. Previously reported results are presented on a comparable basis.

Our reportable business segment information is prepared using the following methodologies:

•Net revenues and non-interest expenses directly associated with each reportable business segment are included in determining earnings (loss) before income taxes.

•Net revenues and non-interest expenses not directly associated with specific reportable business segments are allocated based on the most relevant measures applicable, including each reportable business segment’s net revenues, headcount and other factors.

•Reportable business segment assets include an allocation of indirect corporate assets that have been fully allocated to our reportable business segments, generally based on each reportable business segment’s capital utilization.

Our net revenues, non-interest expenses and earnings before income taxes by reportable business segment are summarized below (in millions):
