The following table presents certain quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in valuing the Company’s level 3 fair value measurements:

⁽²⁾	Represents growth rates of asset and performance based fees.

Affiliate equity repurchase obligations include agreements to repurchase Affiliate equity. As of June 30, 2020, there were no changes to growth or discount rates that had a significant impact to Affiliate equity repurchase obligations recorded in prior periods.

Other Investments Carried at Fair Value

The Company’s Affiliates sponsor investment products in which the Company and its Affiliates may make general partner and seed capital investments. The Company uses the net asset value (“NAV”) of these investments as a practical expedient for their fair values. The Company also has investments that do not utilize NAV as a practical expedient for fair value.

The following table summarizes the fair value of Other investments and any related unfunded commitments:



	December 31, 2019				June 30, 2020
Category of Investment	Fair Value		Unfunded Commitments		Fair Value		Unfunded Commitments
Private equity funds⁽¹⁾	$	203.3	$	127.2	$	190.2	$	135.3
Investments in other strategies⁽²⁾	8.5		—		5.3		—
Investments measured at NAV as a practical expedient	$	211.8	$	127.2	$	195.5	$	135.3
Other	—		—		8.5		—
Other investments⁽³⁾	$	211.8	$	127.2	$	204.0	$	135.3

___________________________

⁽¹⁾

The Company accounts for its interests in private equity funds under the equity method of accounting and, therefore, uses NAV as a practical expedient, one quarter in arrears (adjusted for current period calls and distributions) to determine the fair value. These funds primarily invest in a broad range of third-party funds and direct investments. Distributions will be received as the underlying assets are liquidated over the life of the funds, which is generally up to 15 years.


⁽²⁾	These are multi-disciplinary funds that invest across various asset classes and strategies, including equity, credit and real estate. Investments are generally redeemable on a daily, monthly or quarterly basis.


⁽³⁾	Fair value attributable to the controlling interest was $137.6 million and $140.9 million as of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

Other Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Carried at Fair Value

The Company has other financial assets and liabilities, which are not required to be carried at fair value, but the Company is required to disclose their fair values. The carrying amount of Cash and cash equivalents, Receivables, and Payables and accrued liabilities approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of notes receivable, which is reported in Other assets, approximates fair value because interest rates and other terms are at market rates. The carrying value of the credit facilities approximates fair value because the credit facilities have variable interest based on selected short-term rates.

The following table summarizes the Company’s other financial liabilities not carried at fair value:



	December 31, 2019				June 30, 2020
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value		Fair Value Hierarchy
Senior notes	$	746.8	$	797.4	$	1,097.0	$	1,165.8	Level 2
Junior convertible securities	315.4		415.7		316.9		277.3		Level 2
Junior subordinated notes	290.7		327.7		290.7		322.0		Level 2
