Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities is determined in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s Level 1 financial assets consist mainly of investments in equity and fixed-income mutual funds that are quoted daily. Level 2 financial assets consist of Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) mortgage-backed pass-through certificates, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and other U.S. government agency short-term notes and investment grade commercial paper. The Company's Level 2 financial assets, with the exception of the GNMA securities, were purchased as part of a cash management program requiring only short term, top-tier investment grade government and corporate securities. The GNMA mortgage-backed pass-through certificates were purchased for the sole purpose of satisfying specific regulatory requirements imposed on our wholly-owned limited purpose federal thrift subsidiary, SEI Private Trust Company (SPTC). As a result, the Company's Level 2 financial assets are limited to only these types of fixed income securities. The valuation of the Company's Level 2 financial assets are based upon securities pricing policies and procedures utilized by third-party pricing vendors. The pricing policies and procedures applied during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were consistent with those as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2013. The Company had no Level 3 financial assets or liabilities at September 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013. There were no transfers of financial assets between levels within the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The fair value of certain financial assets and liabilities of the Company was determined using the following inputs:
