Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies From time to time, the Company and its Affiliates may be subject to claims, legal proceedings and other contingencies in the ordinary course of their business activities. Any such matters are subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that some of these matters may be resolved in a manner unfavorable to the Company or its Affiliates. The Company and its Affiliates establish accruals, as necessary, for matters for which the outcome is probable and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company has committed to co-invest in certain Affiliate sponsored investment products. As of December 31, 2019, these unfunded commitments were $127.2 million and may be called in future periods. As of December 31, 2019, the Company was contingently liable to make payments of $150.0 million through 2021 and $40.0 million through 2022, related to the achievement of specified financial targets by certain of its Affiliates accounted for under the equity method. As of December 31, 2019, the Company expected to make payments of approximately $25 million. The Company expected to make no payments in 2020. Affiliate equity interests provide holders with a conditional right to put their interests to the Company over time. See Note 18. In connection with one of the Company’s investments in an Affiliate, a minority owner has the right to elect to sell a portion of its ownership interest in the Affiliate to the Company annually. In the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company was notified by the minority owner that it had elected to sell a 5% ownership interest in the Affiliate to the Company. The transaction is expected to be completed during the first half of 2020; however, the Company cannot currently predict the amount that may be paid to settle this commitment. If the Company acquires the minority owner’s interest, it will continue to account for the Affiliate under the equity method. The Company and certain of its consolidated Affiliates operate under regulatory authorities that require the maintenance of minimum financial or capital requirements. Management is not aware of any significant violations of such requirements.
