Acquisitions

On January 20, 2014, we signed a share purchase agreement with Formuepleje A/S, Fondsmaeglerselskab and certain individual shareholders to acquire CPH Capital Fondsmaeglerselskab A/S, a Danish asset management firm that currently manages approximately $3 billion in global core equity assets for institutional investors. This acquisition requires approval from the Danish Financial Services Authority and we anticipate closing this acquisition during the second quarter of 2014. The acquisition is not expected to have a significant impact on 2014 revenues and earnings.
