(1) As discussed in Note 2, during 2019, we have reclassified the presentation of certain other fees, primarily related to prime brokerage services offered to our clients. These fees were previously presented as Other revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and are now presented within Commissions and other fees. There is no impact on Total revenues as a result of this change in presentation. Previously reported results are presented on a comparable basis.
