Following the adoption of ASU 2016-01, we account for Equity securities at fair value with adjustments to fair value recognized in Interest and net investment income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. There were no unrealized gains or losses recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, approximately $1 million of unrealized losses were recorded within Interest and net investment income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

We periodically review our Debt securities to determine whether there has been an other than temporary decline in value. There were no impairment charges due to declines in the value of these investments for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

Additionally, we hold minority interests in several strategic investments that do not have readily determinable fair values and are recorded at cost and are remeasured upon the occurrence of observable price changes or impairments. We account for these investments at fair value with adjustments to fair value recognized in unrealized gain (loss) on investments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations within Interest and net investment income. The investments are included within Other Assets on the condensed consolidated statements of financial position. At March 31, 2019, the carrying amount of these investments is $4 million.
