The information in this section should be read in connection with the information on market risk related to changes in interest rates and non-U.S. currency exchange rates in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2025 Annual Report and Note 8 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. Our exposure to market risk primarily consists of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to our international operations and changes in interest rates on debt obligations. We manage such risks primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding and by using derivative financial instruments. See Note 7 – Fair Value Measurements and Note 8 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information on fair value methodology used to value the swaps at June 30, 2026. We apply Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” when accounting for derivative financial instruments. In all cases, we view derivative financial instruments as a risk management tool and, accordingly, do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. International Operations We conduct a significant portion of our business and employ a substantial number of people outside the U.S. As a result, we are subject to risks associated with doing business globally. Our Investment Management business has significant euro and British pound denominated assets under management (AUM), as well as associated revenue and earnings in Europe. In addition, our BOE, Advisory and Project Management segments derive significant revenue and earnings in foreign currencies, particularly the euro and British pound sterling. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may produce corresponding changes in our AUM, revenue and earnings. Our foreign operations expose us to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments in terms of our functional (reporting) currency, which is the U.S. dollar. We use fixed to fixed and float to float cross-currency swaps to hedge our exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates on certain foreign investments as well as foreign currency denominated loans. As of June 30, 2026, we had outstanding cross-currency swaps with a total fair value of $99 million included in other assets and $343 million included in other liabilities. Our businesses could be adversely affected by rapid and unpredictable changes to U.S. trade policy, disputes with U.S. trading partners, increased tariffs, high interest rates, limited access to debt capital or liquidity constraints, downturns in general macroeconomic conditions, regulatory or financial market uncertainty, public health crises and geopolitical conflicts (or the perception that any such events may occur). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, approximately 43.0% and 43.1% of our revenue was transacted in foreign currencies. The following table sets forth our revenue derived from our most significant currencies (dollars in millions): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 United States dollar $6,400 57.0% $5,492 56.5% $12,383 56.9% $10,627 57.2% British pound sterling 1,525 13.6% 1,386 14.3% 2,969 13.6% 2,620 14.1% Euro 1,108 9.9% 908 9.3% 2,132 9.8% 1,674 9.0% Canadian dollar 363 3.2% 278 2.9% 688 3.2% 529 2.8% Australian dollar 267 2.4% 228 2.3% 490 2.3% 410 2.2% Indian rupee 229 2.0% 222 2.3% 466 2.1% 436 2.3% Japanese yen 141 1.3% 136 1.4% 294 1.4% 261 1.4% Singapore dollar 116 1.0% 104 1.1% 238 1.1% 205 1.1% Swiss franc 102 0.9% 111 1.1% 222 1.0% 223 1.2% Chinese yuan 117 1.0% 113 1.2% 218 1.0% 219 1.2% Other currencies (1) 858 7.7% 739 7.6% 1,653 7.6% 1,388 7.5% Total revenue $11,226 100.0% $9,717 100.0% $21,753 100.0% $18,592 100.0% ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ (1)Approximately 49 and 46 currencies comprise 7.7% and 7.6% of our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Approximately 49 and 46 currencies comprise 7.6% and 7.5% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. 61 Table of contents Although we operate globally, we report our results in U.S. dollars. As a result, the strengthening or weakening of the U.S. dollar will negatively or positively impact our reported results. A hypothetical 10% increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the British pound sterling during the six months ended June 30, 2026, would have increased pre-tax income by $17 million. A hypothetical 10% increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the euro would have decreased pre-tax income by $12 million. These hypothetical calculations estimate the impact of translating results into U.S. dollars and do not include an estimate of the impact that a 10% change in the U.S. dollar against other currencies would have had on our foreign operations. Foreign currency exchange rate changes may have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results. Due to our exposure to constantly changing currency rates, we cannot predict how currency exchange rate changes may affect future operating results. In addition, currency exchange volatility may make it more difficult to perform period-to-period comparisons of our reported results of operations. Our international operations are also subject to political instability and changes in tax, trade and regulatory policies, among other things, which may adversely affect our future financial performance. We monitor these risks and may add more oversight of our business activities in foreign countries where such risks and costs are particularly significant. Interest Rates We manage our interest expense by using a combination of fixed and variable rate debt. We may also enter into interest rate swap agreements to attempt to hedge the variability of future interest payments due to changes in interest rates. No interest rate swap agreements were outstanding as of June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. We utilize sensitivity analyses to assess the potential effect on our variable rate debt. If interest rates were to increase 100 basis points on our outstanding variable rate debt as of June 30, 2026, the net impact of the additional interest cost would be a decrease of $14 million on pre-tax income for the six months ended June 30, 2026. For additional information on the estimated fair value and carrying value of our long-term debt, see Note 12 – Long- Term Debt and Short-Term Borrowings of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Item 8 included in our 2025 Annual Report and Note 10 – Long-Term Debt and Short-Term Borrowings of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. 62 Table of contents
