Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value Financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature. The tables below represent the carrying value, fair value and fair value hierarchy category of certain financial assets and liabilities that are not recorded at fair value in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition for the periods indicated. The tables below exclude certain financial instruments such as equity method investments and all non-financial assets and liabilities. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | June 30, 2025 | | | Carrying Value | | Fair Value | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Level 3 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (in millions) | Financial assets, not measured at fair value | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 4,688 | | $ | 4,688 | | $ | 4,688 | | $ | — | | $ | — | Cash - segregated for regulatory purposes | | | 45,057 | | | 45,057 | | | 45,057 | | | — | | | — | Securities - segregated for regulatory purposes | | | 30,952 | | | 30,952 | | | — | | | 30,952 | | | — | Securities borrowed | | | 10,145 | | | 10,145 | | | — | | | 10,145 | | | — | Securities purchased under agreements to resell | | | 9,529 | | | 9,529 | | | — | | | 9,529 | | | — | Receivables from customers | | | 65,346 | | | 65,346 | | | — | | | 65,346 | | | — | Receivables from brokers, dealers and clearing organizations | | | 4,074 | | | 4,074 | | | — | | | 4,074 | | | — | Interest receivable | | | 454 | | | 454 | | | — | | | 454 | | | — | Other assets | | | 40 | | | 44 | | | — | | | 5 | | | 39 | Total financial assets, not measured at fair value | | $ | 170,285 | | $ | 170,289 | | $ | 49,745 | | $ | 120,505 | | $ | 39 |

Netting of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities The Company’s policy is to net securities borrowed and securities loaned, and securities purchased under agreements to resell and securities sold under agreements to repurchase that meet the offsetting requirements prescribed in ASC Topic 210-20. In the tables below, the amounts of financial instruments that are not offset in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition, but could be netted against cash or financial instruments with specific counterparties under master netting agreements, according to the terms of the agreements, including clearing houses (exchange-traded options, warrants and discount certificates) or over the counter currency forward contract counterparties, are presented to provide financial statement readers with the Company’s net payable or receivable with counterparties for these financial instruments. The tables below present the netting of financial assets and financial liabilities for the periods indicated. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | June 30, 2025 | | | | | | | Amounts | | | Net Amounts | | Amounts Not Offset | | | | | | Gross | | Offset in the | | | Presented in | | in the Condensed | | | | | | Amounts | | Condensed | | | the Condensed | | Consolidated | | | | | | of Financial | | Consolidated | | | Consolidated | | Statements of | | | | | | Assets and | | Statements of | | | Statements of | | Financial Condition | | | | | | Liabilities | | Financial | | | Financial | | Cash or Financial | | Net | | | Recognized | | Condition 2 | | | Condition | | Instruments | | Amount | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (in millions) | Offsetting of financial assets | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Securities segregated for regulatory purposes: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Segregated securities purchased under agreements to resell | | $ | 28,249 | 1 | | $ | — | | | $ | 28,249 | | $ | (28,249) | | $ | — | Segregated securities borrowed | | | 2,703 | 1 | | | — | | | | 2,703 | | | (2,625) | | | 78 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Securities borrowed | | | 10,145 | | | | — | | | | 10,145 | | | (9,881) | | | 264 | Securities purchased under agreements to resell | | | 9,529 | | | | — | | | | 9,529 | | | (9,529) | | | — | Financial instruments owned, at fair value | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Options | | | 55 | | | | — | | | | 55 | | | (42) | | | 13 | Currency forward contracts | | | 134 | | | | — | | | | 134 | | | — | | | 134 | Total | | $ | 50,815 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 50,815 | | $ | (50,326) | | $ | 489 |
