Putnam Retirement Business

Description of transaction

On January 1, 2015, the Company acquired the retirement business of Putnam Investments, LLC (“Putnam”), an affiliate of the Company. The transaction was accounted for as a combination between entities under common control. As such, the assets and liabilities acquired from Putnam were recorded at historical cost as of January 1, 2015. In exchange for cash paid in the amount of $4,114, the Company acquired $11,501 of other assets, assumed $7,895 of other liabilities and recognized a dividend of $508. The 2015 amounts presented are aligned with the new business structure which includes the Putnam retirement business, while the 2014 comparative amounts reflect the previous structure which excludes the Putnam retirement business as the amounts are considered immaterial.
