The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations as the majority of its contracts relate to either: contracts with an original term of one year or less; contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed; or contracts that are based on the value of assets under management or administration.
