See Note 4, Investments, for further information on investments not held at fair value.
(2)
Cash and cash equivalents, other than money market funds, are carried at either cost or amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities.
(3)
At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, approximately $8.2 billion and $3.4 billion, respectively, of money market funds were recorded within cash and cash equivalents on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. Money market funds are valued based on quoted market prices, or $1.00 per share, which generally is the NAV of the fund.
(4)
At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, other assets included cash collateral of approximately $70 million and $63 million, respectively. See Note 8, Derivatives and Hedging for further information on derivatives held by the Company. In addition, other assets included $17 million of restricted cash at both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
(5)
Long-term borrowings are recorded at amortized cost, net of debt issuance costs. The fair value of the long-term borrowings, including the current portion of long-term borrowings, is determined using market prices and the EUR/USD foreign exchange rate at the end of September 2024 and December 2023, respectively. See Note 13, Borrowings, for the fair value of each of the Company’s long-term borrowings.
Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share The following tables list information regarding all investments that use a fair value measurement to account for both their financial assets and financial liabilities in their calculation of a NAV per share (or equivalent).

N/R – Not Redeemable

(1)
Comprised of equity method investments, which include investment companies that account for their financial assets and most financial liabilities under fair value measures; therefore, the Company’s investment in such equity method investees approximates fair value.
(a)
This category includes hedge funds, funds of hedge funds, and other funds that invest primarily in equities, fixed income securities, private credit, opportunistic and mortgage instruments and other third-party hedge funds. The fair values of the investments have been estimated using the NAV of the Company’s ownership interest in partners’ capital. The liquidation period for the investments in the funds that are not subject to redemption is unknown at both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
(b)
This category includes private equity funds that initially invest in nonmarketable securities of private companies, which ultimately may become public in the future. The fair values of these investments have been estimated using capital accounts representing the Company’s ownership interest in the funds and may also include other performance inputs. The Company’s investment in each fund is not subject to redemption and is normally returned through distributions as a result of the liquidation of the underlying assets of the private equity funds. The liquidation period for the investments in these funds is unknown at both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
(c)
This category includes several real assets funds that invest directly and indirectly in real estate or infrastructure. The fair values of the investments have been estimated using capital accounts representing the Company’s ownership interest in the funds. The Company’s investments that are not subject to redemption or are not currently redeemable are normally returned through distributions and realizations of the underlying assets of the funds. The liquidation period for the investments in the funds that are not subject to redemptions is unknown at both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The total remaining unfunded commitments were $268 million and $272 million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company’s portion of the total remaining unfunded commitments was $241 million and $248 million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
(d)
This category includes hedge funds and funds of hedge funds that invest primarily in equities, fixed income securities, mortgage instruments and other third-party hedge funds. The fair values of the investments have been estimated using the NAV of the Company's ownership interest in partners' capital. The investments in hedge funds will be redeemed upon settlement of certain deferred cash compensation liabilities.
(e)
This category includes the underlying third-party private equity funds within consolidated BlackRock sponsored private equity funds of funds. These investments are not subject to redemption or are not currently redeemable; however, for certain funds, the Company may sell or transfer its interest, which may need approval by the general partner of the underlying funds. Due to the nature of the investments in this category, the Company reduces its investment by distributions that are received through the realization of the underlying assets of the funds. The liquidation period for the underlying assets of these funds is unknown.
