Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Significant Accounting Policies | Significant Accounting Policies For a listing of Federated Hermes' significant accounting policies, please refer to Federated Hermes' Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The following accounting policy has been updated as a result of newly consolidated variable interest entities (VIEs). Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities Federated Hermes has a controlling financial interest in a VIE and is, therefore, deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE if it has (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Financial information for certain entities, whose primary purpose is to collect and distribute carried interest paid by foreign private equity and infrastructure funds, is not available timely and is therefore consolidated on a one quarter lag, adjusted for any known material carried interest revenue and compensation transactions occurring through the balance sheet date.
