Pay vs Performance Disclosure, Table

Pay Versus Performance

As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table and executive compensation “actually paid” (as defined in Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) and certain measures of our financial performance with respect to the individuals serving as our CEO (our “PEO”) and, on average, our other NEOs during 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020. The values shown below are disclosed in the manner required by SEC rules, but in certain cases, particularly with respect to the valuation of equity awards, the values shown may not correspond to the actual economic benefit that will be received by the applicable executive upon receipt of the applicable compensation. In addition, our performance-based long-term incentive awards granted in 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020 in respect of 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019 performance, respectively, which are included in this disclosure, are based on three-year forward-looking performance metrics, or the achievement of the Minimum Value Condition. For further information concerning our executive compensation, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” above.

Represents the amount of compensation “actually paid” to our NEOs, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and shown in the table below. The dollar amounts do not in all cases reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to our NEOs during the applicable year, and are not indicative of future amounts that may be paid or become payable to our NEOs pursuant to certain awards. In particular, grants of performance-based awards to our NEOs are based on three-year forward-looking performance metrics, or the achievement of the Minimum Value Condition. The table below sets forth the adjustments made during each year in the table to calculate the compensation “actually paid” to our NEOs during each year in the table, even though many of these amounts were not actually paid:

Reflects the average of the amounts reported for our NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Orszag in 2024 and 2023 and Mr. Jacobs in each year except 2024) in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table in each applicable year. The names of each of the NEOs included for purposes of calculating the average amounts in each applicable year are as follows: (i) for 2024, Mses. Betsch and Soto and Messrs. Jacob and Russo; (ii) for 2023, Mses. Betsch and Soto and Mr. Russo; (iii) for 2022, Ms. Betsch and Messrs. Orszag, Russo, Bhutani, and Stern; and (iv) for each of 2021 and 2020, Messrs.

(6)

Cumulative TSR is calculated by dividing the difference between our share price at the end and the beginning of the measurement period by our share price at the beginning of the measurement period, plus the amount of dividends paid on our common stock during the measurement period (assuming the reinvestment of such dividends when they are paid).

(7)	Represents the weighted peer group TSR (including dividends), weighted according to the respective companies’ stock market capitalization at the beginning of each period for which a return is indicated. The peer group used for this purpose is the S&P Financial Index.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return

For 2020 to 2021, our TSR showed an inverse correlation to compensation “actually paid” due to the timing of changes to performance award estimates as we navigated the challenges of the pandemic. For 2021 to 2022, our TSR showed a more direct correlation to compensation “actually paid” due to both our record performance for 2021, which more than offset the prior inverse correlation, and the change in 2022 of the mix of cash and equity-based compensation for certain of our NEOs as the value of the shares underlying equity-based awards decreased at a slower pace than the S&P Financial Index. For 2022 to 2023, our TSR continued showing a direct correlation to compensation “actually paid” as we continued our compensation practice of having equity-based compensation make up a significant proportion of our NEOs’ total compensation mix. For 2023 to 2024, our TSR showed a more direct correlation to compensation “actually paid” due to our strong performance for 2024.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Net Income

Net Income also showed an inverse correlation to compensation “actually paid” in 2020 to 2021 as we navigated the challenges of the pandemic and a more direct correlation in 2021 to 2022 as we posted record results for 2021 and the change in the mix of cash and equity-based compensation for certain of our NEOs in 2022 as the value of shares of our common stock underlying equity-based awards decreased. In light of challenging macroeconomic conditions, Net Income showed an inverse correlation to compensation “actually paid” in 2022 to 2023. Net Income showed a more direct correlation in 2023 to 2024 as we posted strong results for 2024.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Company Selected Measure

Share price was positively correlated with compensation “actually paid” for 2020 to 2021, 2021 to 2022 and 2023 to 2024. For 2022 to 2023, while share price remained relatively flat, compensation “actually paid” generally increased, reflecting the impact of our management transition, including special grants to certain of our NEOs during 2023.

Total Shareholder Return Vs Peer Group

Tabular List, Table

Required Tabular Disclosure of Financial Performance Measures

As described in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a pay-for-performance philosophy. In setting our NEOs’ compensation, our Compensation Committee’s structured decision-making process is based on a holistic, not formulaic, review of the Company, applicable business segment and individual performance, and considers quantitative as well as qualitative factors that account for Company performance and shareholder outcomes. This review does not assign any specific weight to any one metric. We believe this review, which includes review of individual performance, allows overall compensation in any given fiscal year to be tailored to reflect the particular circumstances, including the macro environment, while appropriately incentivizing our NEOs. However, as required by the SEC’s rules, certain specific quantitative financial performance measures that were used by the Committee to link NEO compensation “actually paid” in 2024 to performance have been included below:

•	Share price

•	Adjusted net revenue

•	Adjusted operating margin

•	Return of capital

Adjusted net revenue is the same metric as “operating revenue” reported in our annual Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on March 21, 2024 (our “2024 Proxy Statement”). Adjusted operating margin is the same metric as “operating margin” reported in our 2024 Proxy Statement. For more information on these metrics (other than share price, which is discussed below) and the adjustments used in their calculation, please see the Endnotes to the table entitled “Selected Consolidated Financial Information” located on page 26 of this Proxy Statement.
