Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]  
GOODWILL AND IDENTIFIABLE INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET GOODWILL AND IDENTIFIABLE INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET
Our goodwill and identifiable intangible assets result from various acquisitions. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, we acquired TriState Capital and Charles Stanley, both of which resulted in goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. See Note 3 for additional information on these acquisitions and the related goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. See Notes 2 and 11 of our 2021 Form 10-K for additional information about our goodwill and intangible assets, including the related accounting policies.

We perform goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment testing on an annual basis or when an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value or indicate that the asset is impaired.  We performed our latest annual impairment testing for our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of our January 1, 2022 evaluation date, evaluating balances as of December 31, 2021. In that testing, we performed a qualitative impairment assessment for each of our reporting units that had goodwill, as well as for our indefinite-lived intangible assets.
Our qualitative assessments consider macroeconomic indicators, such as trends in equity and fixed income markets, gross domestic product, labor markets, interest rates, and housing markets. We also consider regulatory changes, reporting unit specific results, and changes in key personnel and strategy. Changes in these indicators, and our ability to respond to such changes, may trigger the need for impairment testing at a point other than our annual assessment date. Based upon the outcome of our qualitative assessments, no impairment was identified. No events have occurred since such assessments that would cause us to update this impairment testing.
