Basis of Presentation The accompanying Condensed Financial Statements include the accounts of Ameriprise Financial, Inc.

Parent Company revenues and expenses, other than compensation and benefits and debt and interest expense, are primarily related to intercompany transactions with subsidiaries and affiliates.

For certain of these derivatives, the change in the hedged item is reflected in the subsidiaries’ Statements of Operations. The change in fair value of certain derivatives used to economically hedge risk related to guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit (“GMWB”) provisions is included in benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses, while the underlying benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses are reflected in equity in earnings of subsidiaries. 2. Investments On December 23, 2020, RiverSource Life Insurance Company (“RVSL”) issued a $500 million unsecured 3.5% surplus note due December 31, 2050 to the Parent Company. The surplus note is subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the RVSL’s obligations to policyholders, claimants and beneficiaries and all other creditors. No payment of principal or interest shall be made without the prior approval of the Minnesota Department of Commerce and such payments shall be made only from RVSL’s statutory surplus. Interest payments are due semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31, commencing on June 30, 2021. Subject to the preceding conditions, RVSL may prepay all or a portion of the principal at any time. The held-to-maturity investment of $500 million as of December 31, 2020 is recorded in Investments on the Parent Company’s Condensed Balance Sheets. Interest income will be reported in Net investment income on the Parent Company’s Condensed Statements of Operations. In December 2018, the Parent Company invested in the residual tranche of an asset backed security structure issued by Ameriprise Advisor Financing, LLC, a subsidiary of the Parent Company. The asset backed securities are collateralized by a portfolio of loans issued to advisors affiliated with Ameriprise Financial Services, LLC (“AFS”), a subsidiary of the Parent Company. The fair value of the residual tranche was $90 million and $94 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and is reported in Investments on the Parent Company’s Condensed Balance Sheets. For the year ended December 31, 2020, interest income was $6 million and is reported in Net investment income on the Parent Company’s Condensed Statements of Operations. 3.

The Parent Company also has revolving credit agreements with its subsidiaries as the borrower aggregating $1.3 billion as of both December 31, 2020 and 2019, of which $172 million and $50 million was outstanding as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. 5. Guarantees, Commitments and Contingencies The Parent Company is the guarantor for operating leases of certain subsidiaries. All consolidated legal, regulatory and arbitration proceedings, including class actions of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries are potential or current obligations of the Parent Company. The Parent Company has committed revolving credit agreements with its subsidiaries as the lender aggregating $366 million as of December 31, 2020. The Parent Company and Ameriprise Certificate Company (“ACC”) entered into a Capital Support Agreement on March 2, 2009, pursuant to which the Parent Company agrees to commit such capital to ACC as is necessary to satisfy applicable minimum capital requirements. Effective April 30, 2014, this agreement was amended to revise the maximum commitment to $50 million. For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, ACC did not draw upon the Capital Support Agreement and had met all applicable capital requirements. AFS entered into a Financial Industry Regulatory Authority approved subordinated loan agreement with the Parent Company on December 15, 2014 for regulatory net capital purposes. The agreement consists of a $200 million secured demand note. The note is secured by cash and securities equal to the principal value of the note pledged by the Parent Company. For the year ended December 31, 2020, AFS had not made a demand of the principal amount. Ameriprise Enterprise Investment Services, Inc.
