The following is a summary of the adjustments made to US GAAP net income (loss) for the segment to arrive at
Economic Income (Loss):
Funds Consolidation: The impacts of consolidation and the related elimination entries of the Consolidated Funds are not included in Economic Income (Loss). Adjustments to reconcile to US GAAP net income (loss) included elimination of incentive income and management fees earned from the Consolidated Funds and addition of fund expenses excluding management fees paid, fund revenues and investment income (loss).
Other Adjustments:
(a)     Economic Income (Loss) recognizes revenues (i) net of distribution fees paid to agents and (ii) our proportionate share
of management and incentive fees of certain real estate operating entities, the healthcare royalty business and the activist business.
(b)    Economic Income (Loss) excludes income taxes and acquisition related adjustments as management does not consider
these items when evaluating the performance of the segment.
(c)     Economic Income (Loss) recognizes Company income from proprietary trading (including interest and dividends).
(d)     Economic Income (Loss) recognizes the Company's proportionate share of expenses, for certain real estate
operating entities and the activist business, for which the investments are recorded under the equity method of accounting for investments.
(e)    Reimbursement from affiliates is shown as a reduction of Economic Income expenses, but is included as a part of
revenues under US GAAP.
(f)    Aircraft lease revenue is shown net of expenses in investment income for Economic Income (Loss).
(g)     Economic Income (Loss) recognizes underwriting income from the Company's insurance related activities, net of
expenses, within other revenue.
(h)    Economic Income (Loss) brokerage revenues included net securities borrowed and securities loaned activities.
(i)     Economic Income (Loss) presents underwriting expenses net of investment banking revenues and records income from
uncrystallized incentive fees.
