Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Stock-Based Compensation Plans and Employee Benefits | Note 15—Stock-Based Compensation Plans and Employee Benefits Stock-Based Compensation—The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense, including the expense related to performance incentive plans (see below), of $69.3 million, $39.4 million and $30.4 million, respectively, during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 in "General and administrative" in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2021, there was $5.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to all unvested restricted stock units that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining vesting/service period of 1.10 years. Performance Incentive Plans—The Company’s Performance Incentive Plans ("iPIP") are designed to provide, primarily to senior executives and select professionals engaged in the Company’s investment activities, long-term compensation which has a direct relationship to the realized returns on investments included in the plans. Awards vest over six years, with 40% being vested at the end of the second year and 15% each year thereafter. As of December 31, 2021, there are five iPIP Plans, each covering a two-year investment period beginning with the 2013-2014 Plan through the 2021-2022 Plan. 2019-2022 iPIP Plans—The Company’s 2019-2020 and 2021-2022 iPIP plans are equity-classified awards which are measured at the grant date fair value and recognized as compensation cost in "General and administrative" in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and "Noncontrolling interests" in the Company’s consolidated statements of changes in equity over the requisite service period. Investments in the 2019-2022 iPIP plans will be held by consolidated subsidiaries of the Company and have two ownership classes, class A units and class B units. The Company owns 100% of the class A units and the class B units were issued to employees as long-term compensation. Except for certain clawback provisions, participants can retain vested class B units upon their termination of employment with the Company. The class B units are entitled to distributions from the net cash realized from the investments in the plan after the Company, through its ownership of the class A units, has received a specified return on its invested capital and a return of its invested capital. Distributions on the class B units are also subject to reductions under a total shareholder return ("TSR") adjustment. The fair value of the class B units was determined using a model that forecasts the underlying cash flows from the investments within the entity to which the class B units have ownership rights. During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded $3.8 million, $3.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of expense related to the 2019-2022 iPIP plans. Distributions on the class B units are expected to be 50% in cash and 50% in shares of the Company’s common stock; provided, however, that (a) the cash portion will be increased if the Company does not have sufficient shares available under shareholder approved equity plans; and (b) if the principal remaining material asset in a plan is unsold SAFE shares, the Company may elect to distribute SAFE shares in lieu of cash and Company stock. ​ The following is a summary of the status of the Company’s equity-classified iPIP plans and changes during the year ended December 31, 2021.

​ As of December 31, 2021, investments with an aggregate gross book value of $1.1 billion, including 26.7 million shares of SAFE common stock acquired by the Company, were attributable to the 2019-2020 Plan and investments with an aggregate gross book value of $182 million, including 1.6 million shares of SAFE common stock acquired by the Company, were attributable to the 2021-2022 Plan. 2013-2018 iPIP Plans—The remainder of the Company’s iPIP plans, as shown in the table below, are liability-classified awards and are remeasured each reporting period at fair value until the awards are settled. Certain employees will be granted awards that entitle employees to receive the residual cash flows from the investments in the plans after the Company has received a specified return on its invested capital and a return of its invested capital. Awards are also subject to reductions under a TSR adjustment. The fair value of awards is determined using a model that forecasts the Company’s projected investment performance. Settlement of the awards will be 50% in cash and 50% in shares of the Company’s common stock or in shares of SAFE’s common stock owned by the Company. The following is a summary of the status of the Company’s liability-classified iPIP plans and changes during the year ended December 31, 2021. ​
