Equity Investments in Affiliates |
Equity Investments in Affiliates | 21. Equity Investments in Affiliates During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Company announced and closed an additional investment in BlueMountain, a leading global credit alternatives manager. The Company continues to hold a minority interest and accounts for the investment under the equity method of accounting. The Company's purchase price allocation was measured using a financial model that includes assumptions of expected market performance and net client cash flows. The Company allocated $131.7 million to acquired client relationships. The consideration paid will be deductible for U.S. tax purposes over a 15-year life. For the Affiliates in which the Company holds a significant but non-controlling interest, the equity method of accounting is applied. The definite-lived acquired client relationships attributable to the Company's equity method investments are amortized over their expected useful lives. As of December 31, 2012, these relationships were being amortized over a weighted average life of approximately nine years. The Company recognized amortization expense for these relationships of $32.9 million for twelve months ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $36.9 million and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012. Assuming no additional investments in new or existing Affiliates, the Company estimates the annual amortization expense attributable to its current equity-method Affiliates for the next five years as follows:
Year Ending December 31, |  | Estimated Amortization Expense |
--- | --- | --- | ---
2013 |  | $ | 41.5 |
2014 |  |  | 20.0 |
2015 |  |  | 11.7 |
2016 |  |  | 8.9 |
2017 |  |  | 8.9 |
