Investments in Joint Ventures

The Account owns interests in several real estate properties through joint ventures and receives distributions and allocations of profits and losses from the joint ventures based on the Account’s ownership interest in those investments.

At December 31, 2019, the Account held investments in joint ventures with ownership interest percentages that ranged from 33.3% to 98.0%. Certain joint ventures are subject to adjusted distribution percentages when earnings in the investment reach a pre-determined threshold.
