The company has reviewed investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) in accordance with its accounting policy and has recognized no other-than-temporary impairment charges on seed money investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 (nine months ended September 30, 2010: $6.5 million).
The gross unrealized losses of seed money investments at September 30, 2011 were primarily caused by declines in the market value of the underlying securities in the seeded funds and foreign exchange movements. After conducting a review of the financial condition and near-term prospects of the underlying securities in the seeded funds as well as the severity and duration of the impairment, the company does not consider any material portion of its gross unrealized losses on these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The securities are expected to recover their value over time and the company has the intent and ability to hold the securities until this recovery occurs.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, there were no charges to other comprehensive income from other-than-temporary impairment related to non-credit related factors (three and nine months ended September 30, 2010: none). A rollforward of the cumulative credit-related other-than-temporary impairment charges recognized in earnings for which some portion of the impairment was recorded in other comprehensive income is as follows:

The company adopted guidance now encompassed in ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation,” on January 1, 2010, resulting in the consolidation of CLOs for which the company has an underlying investment of $50.2 million at September 30, 2011. Of the $18.8 million cumulative credit-related OTTI balance at January 1, 2010, $18.0 million relates to CLOs that were consolidated into the company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, resulting in the elimination of our equity interest.
