Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or the price that would be paid to transfer a liability as of the measurement date. A fair-value reporting hierarchy exists for disclosure of fair value measurements based on the observability of the inputs to the valuation of financial assets and liabilities. The levels are: Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 1 assets may include equity and debt securities that are traded in an active exchange market, including shares of mutual funds. Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 2 assets and liabilities may include debt and equity securities, purchased loans and over-the-counter derivative contracts whose fair value is determined using a pricing model without significant unobservable market data inputs. Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable in active markets. NAV Practical Expedient – Investments that calculate NAV per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient. These investments would be excluded from the fair value hierarchy. (a) Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis The following table presents fair value measurements for classes of Federated's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Federated did not hold any nonfinancial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and Cash Equivalents include deposits with banks and investments in money market funds. Investments in money market funds totaled $168.3 million and $135.7 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Cash investments in publicly available money market funds are valued under the market approach through the use of quoted market prices in an active market, which is the NAV of the funds, and are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Investments—Consolidated Investment Companies—Equity Securities Investments—Consolidated Investment Companies—Equity Securities represent equity securities held by consolidated Federated Funds. For publicly traded equity securities available in an active market, the fair value of these securities is classified as Level 1 when the fair value is based on quoted market prices. The fair value of certain equity securities traded principally in foreign markets and held by consolidated Federated Funds are determined by a third-party pricing service (Level 2). Investments—Consolidated Investment Companies—Debt Securities Investments—Consolidated Investment Companies—Debt Securities primarily represent domestic and foreign bonds held by consolidated Federated Funds. The fair value of these securities may include observable market data such as valuations provided by independent pricing services after considering factors such as the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions (Level 2). Investments—Affiliates and Other—Equity Securities Investments—Affiliates and Other—Equity Securities primarily represent equity investments in fluctuating-value Federated Funds as well as investments held in Separate Accounts. For publicly traded equity securities available in an active market, the fair value of these securities is classified as Level 1 when the fair value is based on quoted market prices. For investments in Federated Funds that are publicly available, the securities are valued under the market approach through the use of quoted market prices available in an active market, which is the NAV of the funds, and are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. The fair value of certain equity securities traded principally in foreign markets are determined by third-party pricing services (Level 2). Investments—Affiliates and Other—Debt Securities Investments—Affiliates and Other—Debt Securities primarily represent domestic bonds held in Separate Accounts. The fair value of these securities may include observable market data such as valuations provided by independent pricing services after considering factors such as the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions (Level 2). (b) Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis Federated did not hold any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at June 30, 2019. (c) Fair Value Measurements of Other Financial Instruments The fair value of Federated's debt is estimated by management using observable market data (Level 2). Based on this fair value estimate, the carrying value of debt appearing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value.
