Leases [Abstract] |
Leases | Leases Operating Leases – The Company leases office space under non-cancelable lease agreements, which expire on various dates through 2035. The lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company reflects lease expense over the lease terms on a straight-line basis. Occupancy lease agreements, in addition to base rentals, generally are subject to escalation provisions based on certain costs incurred by the landlord. The Company does not have any leases with variable lease payments. Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations includes operating lease cost for office space of $12,563 and $37,063 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $12,248 and $36,272 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and variable lease cost of $1,502 and $5,120 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $1,841 and $4,696 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. On June 10, 2021, the Company entered into lease agreements to take on an additional 14 rentable square feet at its 1 Stanhope Gate office in London, U.K. The approximate additional annual expense under these lease agreements, net of certain lease incentives, is £1,081 and the lease term is June 10, 2021 through March 24, 2027. In conjunction with the lease of office space, the Company has entered into letters of credit in the amounts of $5,616 and $5,550 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which are secured by cash that is included in Other Assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company has entered into various operating leases for the use of office equipment (primarily computers, printers, copiers and other information technology related equipment). Occupancy and Equipment Rental on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations includes operating lease cost for office equipment of $1,332 and $3,983 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $1,170 and $3,497 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The Company uses its secured incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The determination of an appropriate incremental borrowing rate requires significant assumptions and judgment. The Company's incremental borrowing rate was calculated based on the Company's recent debt issuances and current market conditions. The Company scales the rates appropriately depending on the life of the leases. The Company incurred net operating cash outflows of $31,714 and $22,469 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to its operating leases, which was net of cash received from lease incentives of $8,924 and $10,267 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company anticipates that it will take possession of this space during 2023. The expected approximate additional annual expense under this lease agreement, net of certain lease incentives, is $2,200 and the lease term will end on December 31, 2035.
