Fair Value Fair Value Measurement         The fair value of financial instruments is based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique and categorized into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.         Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows: <div style="POSITION: relative; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0pt; PADDING-LEFT: 0pt; WIDTH: 70%; PADDING-RIGHT: 0pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 15%; PADDING-TOP: 0pt;">   <div align="center"> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="text-align:left;"> <tr style="padding:0;"> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;" width="47" align="left"></td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;" width="12"></td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;" width="16" align="left"></td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;" width="12"></td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;" align="left"></td></tr> <tr style="padding:0;" valign="top"> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">Level 1.</td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;" colspan="3">Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market.</td></tr> <tr style="padding:0;" valign="top"> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> Level 2.</td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;" colspan="3"> Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:</td></tr> <tr style="padding:0;" valign="top"> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> a)</td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.</td></tr> <tr style="padding:0;" valign="top"> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> b)</td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets.</td></tr> <tr style="padding:0;" valign="top"> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> c)</td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.</td></tr> <tr style="padding:0;" valign="top"> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> d)</td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> Pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.</td></tr> <tr style="padding:0;" valign="top"> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"> Level 3.</td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;">  </td> <td style="FONT-FAMILY: times;" colspan="3"> Prices or valuation techniques based on inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.</td></tr></table></div> </div> Determination of Fair Value         The following is a description of the valuation techniques used to measure fair value and the general classification of these instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy. Investments in Private Equity Funds         The Company accounts for PE Investments at fair value which is determined based on a valuation model using assumptions for the timing and amount of current and expected future cash flow for income and realization events for the underlying assets in the funds. This fair value measurement is generally based on unobservable inputs and, as such, is classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company is not using the NAV (practical expedient) of the underlying funds for purposes of determining fair value. Real Estate Securities         CRE securities are generally valued using a third-party pricing service or broker quotations. These quotations are not adjusted and are based on observable inputs that can be validated, and as such, are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Certain CRE securities may be valued based on a single broker quote or an internal price which may have less observable pricing, and as such, would be classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Management determines the prices are representative of fair value through a review of available data, including observable inputs, recent transactions as well as its knowledge of and experience in the market. Fair Value Hierarchy         Financial assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table presents financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 by level within the fair value hierarchy (dollars in thousands): <div style="POSITION: relative;

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized unrealized gains (losses) of ($3.0) million and ($2.5) million, respectively, for financial assets for which the fair value option was elected. These amounts are recorded as unrealized gain (loss) on investments and other in the consolidated statements of operations. Fair Value Option         The Company has historically elected not to apply the fair value option for the financial assets and liabilities existing at the time of adoption or at the time the Company recognizes the eligible item for the purpose of consistent accounting application. The Company may elect the fair value option for certain of its financial assets or liabilities due to the nature of the instrument. In the case of PE Investments, the Company elected the fair value option because management believes it is a more useful presentation for such investments, as the Company determined recording equity in earnings (losses) from PE Investments based on the change in fair value of projected future cash flow from one period to another better represents the underlying economics of PE Investments. Fair Value of Financial Instruments         In addition to the above disclosures regarding financial assets or liabilities which are recorded at fair value, U.S. GAAP requires disclosure of fair value about all financial instruments. The following disclosure of estimated fair value of financial instruments was determined by the Company, using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on estimated fair value.         The following table presents the principal amount, carrying value and fair value of certain financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (dollars in thousands): <div style="POSITION: relative; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0pt; PADDING-LEFT: 0pt;

the reporting date. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect fair value, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these consolidated financial statements since that date and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein. Real Estate Debt Investments         For CRE debt investments, fair value was approximated by comparing the current yield to the estimated yield for newly originated loans with similar credit risk or the market yield at which a third party might expect to purchase such investment but not to exceed principal amount. Prices were calculated assuming fully-extended maturities regardless of structural or economic tests required to achieve such extended maturities. These fair value measurements of CRE debt are generally based on unobservable inputs and, as such, are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Securitization Bonds Payable         Securitization bonds payable are valued using quotations from nationally recognized financial institutions that generally acted as underwriter for the transactions. These quotations are not adjusted and are generally based on observable inputs that can be validated, and as such, are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Credit Facilities         The Company has amounts outstanding under six credit facilities all of which bear floating rates of interest. As of the reporting date, the Company believes the carrying value approximates fair value. These fair value measurements are based on observable inputs and, as such, are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. </div>falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaThe entire disclosure for the fair value of financial instruments (as defined), including financial assets and financial liabilities (collectively, as defined), and the measurements of those instruments as well as disclosures related to the fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities.
