Our values – and our commitment to them – have always been
our source of strength. The wellspring we tap to drive growth.
The foundation that keeps us steady through challenge. The

Returning to that source has carried us forward for 60 years,
helping us build upon the strength of our past to create more
possibilities for the future of advisors, their clients and our firm.

A message from our chair
and chief executive officer
This year marks 60 years of business for Raymond James.
PAUL C. REILLY
Chair and Chief Executive Officer
Over six decades we have experienced economic prosperity, technological
advances, recessions and geopolitical instability, but through it all, we have
remained rooted in our commitment to take care of advisors and their clients,
make decisions for the long term and maintain a strong and flexible balance
sheet. As we observed during the past two years, this approach positioned
us to generate record results in two very different market environments –
demonstrating the resilience of our business model and reinforcing the value
of our diverse and complementary businesses.
In fiscal 2022, despite the challenging and volatile market environment,
Raymond James achieved strong financial results driven by record net
revenues in the Private Client Group (PCG), Asset Management and Bank
segments and record pre-tax income in PCG. Record net revenues of $11
billion increased 13%, record pre-tax income of $2 billion increased 13%,
and record net income available to common shareholders of $1.5 billion
increased 7% compared to fiscal 2021. Adjusted net income available to
common shareholders of $1.62(1) billion, which excludes $147 million of
acquisition-related expenses, increased 5% compared to adjusted net
income available to common shareholders in fiscal 2021.
The benefit of higher short-term interest rates, along with higher client
assets for most of the fiscal year, drove record net revenues in fiscal 2022.
Additionally, we generated a return on common equity of 17.0% and an
adjusted return on tangible common equity of 21.1%(1), both strong results
particularly given our robust capital position. We ended the year with
common shareholders’ equity attributable to Raymond James Financial of
$9.3 billion and book value per share of $43.41, which increased 13% and 8%,
respectively, over September 2021. Our capital ratios remained well above
regulatory requirements, with a total capital ratio of 20.4% and Tier 1 leverage
ratio of 10.3% at the end of the year, giving us the balance sheet capacity to
not only be defensive but also opportunistic during these uncertain times.
We made significant progress deploying capital throughout the year,
maintaining our longstanding capital deployment priorities: investing
in organic growth, which we believe delivers the best returns for our
shareholders over time; selectively making acquisitions; paying an ongoing

dividend and repurchasing our stock. During the fiscal year, we increased our
quarterly dividend approximately 31% to $0.34 per quarter from $0.26 per
quarter. We repurchased 1.74 million shares for $162 million, at an average price
of approximately $94 per share. In total, through the combination of common
stock dividends and share repurchases, the firm returned total capital of $437
million to shareholders. Subsequent to the fiscal year-end, the board approved
a 24% increase of the quarterly common stock cash dividend to $0.42 per share
and a share repurchase authorization of $1.5 billion, replacing the previous
authorization under which approximately $800 million remained available.
As we have experienced throughout our history, our conservative and long-term
approach not only positions us to be defensive, but also to act offensively when
opportunities arise. This fiscal year, we were pleased to add three high-quality
firms to the Raymond James family. Importantly, each firm met our criteria
of providing a strong cultural alignment, offering a strategic fit and making
financial sense for our shareholders.
• Charles Stanley Group – a U.K.-based wealth management firm, with its origin
dating back to 1792, with nearly 200 wealth managers and £27.1 billion ($36
billion) in client assets, at the time of closing. We expect this combination will
further accelerate the growth of Raymond James’ U.K. wealth management
franchise, and through Charles Stanley’s multiple affiliation options, give us
the ability to offer wealth management affiliation choices consistent with our
model in the U.S. and Canada.

• TriState Capital Holdings – a client-centric, technology-enabled franchise
focusing on serving clients with premier private banking, commercial
banking and niche investment management products and services. TriState
Capital Bank operates a branchless bank model with total deposits of $12.6
billion and total loans of $11.5 billion, at the time of closing, including
an industry leading securities based lending portfolio. The combination
diversifies our funding sources, adds internal Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC) insurance capacity through a second bank charter, and,
with Raymond James’ robust capital position, provides capital to fuel TriState
Capital Bank’s strong asset growth.
• SumRidge Partners – a technology-driven fixed income market maker
specializing in investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds, municipal
bonds and institutional preferred securities. We believe SumRidge is a good
complement to the existing fixed income trading business and will enhance
our platform with an institutional market-making operation, as well as
additional trading technologies and risk management tools.
These actions illustrate our continued focus on acquiring businesses that
enhance our core operations, and those with technology that can help grow
and position us for the future. Our focus on deploying capital to generate
attractive returns for our shareholders – while maintaining ample liquidity and
total capital and Tier 1 ratios well above the regulatory requirements to be
considered well-capitalized – was evident in fiscal 2022.
Turning to our segment results, PCG, our largest segment, generated record
net revenues of $7.7 billion, an increase of 17% over fiscal 2021, and record
pre-tax income of $1.0 billion, a 38% increase over 2021. Record net revenues
were driven by higher assets in fee-based accounts for most of the year and a
robust net increase in the number of financial advisors, along with the benefit
of higher short-term interest rates. Fiscal 2022 concluded with PCG assets
under administration of $1.04 trillion and PCG assets in fee-based accounts
of $586 billion, both down 7% compared to the end of fiscal 2021. Positive
impacts of strong net inflows of client assets, which included robust domestic
PCG net new assets of approximately $95 billion, or 9% of beginning of period
assets, along with the Charles Stanley acquisition, were more than offset by
the decline in market values with the S&P 500 declining 17% year-over-year.
We ended the year with approximately 8,680 financial advisors affiliated
with the firm, a net increase of nearly 200 advisors. Excluding the impact of
advisors transitioning to our RIA and Custody Services (RCS) division, where
we typically retain the client assets but do not include the advisors in our firm
count, the number of financial advisors increased approximately 420 in fiscal
2022. Despite a competitive environment, our regrettable attrition of advisors
remained extremely low at approximately 1% in fiscal 2022. Meanwhile,
financial advisors with approximately $320 million of trailing 12-month
production and approximately $43 billion of assets at their prior firms joined
Raymond James’ domestic independent contractor and employee channels

during the year. Our financial advisor recruiting pipeline is strong across
all affiliation options as our client-first values and leading technology and
product offerings continue to resonate with current and prospective advisors.
The Capital Markets segment had another strong year given the difficult market
environment. Net revenues of $1.8 billion and pre-tax income of $415 million,
decreased by 4% and 22%, respectively, compared to record results in fiscal
2021. The tailwind we experienced in investment banking activity in fiscal 2021
was replaced in fiscal 2022 with heightened market volatility and geopolitical
concerns, reducing activity levels across the industry. Despite these challenges,
we generated record merger and acquisition (M&A) revenues of $709 million,
which partially offset lower equity and debt underwriting results. The strength
in M&A results is a testament to our investments in niche businesses and
additions of senior talent.
Fixed income brokerage revenues declined due to lower levels of client activity,
particularly with small- and mid-sized depositories, as these clients are
experiencing declines in deposits and have less cash available to invest in
securities. This dynamic will lead to a challenging environment in fiscal 2023.
While this headwind exists, we expect the recently acquired SumRidge Partners
to enhance our current position in the rapidly evolving fixed income and
trading technology marketplace.
The Asset Management segment generated record net revenues of $914 million,
which increased 5%, and pre-tax income of $386 million, which decreased
1% compared to fiscal 2021. Record net revenues were driven by higher PCG
assets in fee-based accounts for most of the year. However, financial assets under
management ended the year at $174 billion, representing a 9% decline year-
over-year, as strong net inflows in fee-based accounts in PCG were offset by
fixed income and equity market declines, along with net outflows for Raymond
James Investment Management. Financial assets under management started
fiscal 2023 lower, however, we are confident that strong growth of assets in
fee-based accounts in the PCG segment will drive long-term growth of financial
assets under management.
Bank segment net revenues of $1.1 billion increased 61%, while pre-tax
income of $382 million increased 4%, over fiscal 2021. Higher loan balances,
including nearly $11.5 billion of loans acquired with TriState Capital Bank,
and net interest margin (NIM) expansion during the year led to strong revenue
growth. Despite strong revenue growth, pre-tax income growth was muted
due primarily to a higher bank loan provision for credit losses in fiscal 2022
in contrast to the bank loan benefit for credit losses in the prior year, along
with higher Raymond James Bank Deposit Program (RJBDP) fees paid to PCG
largely due to rising interest rates. Net loans increased 73% to end the fiscal
year at $43.2 billion driven by the loans acquired with TriState Capital Bank,
along with the growth of loans to PCG clients and corporate loans at Raymond
James Bank. Reflecting higher short-term interest rates and the relatively high
concentration of floating-rate assets, the Bank segment’s NIM increased 44 basis

the loan portfolio remained strong, with criticized loans as
a percent of total loans held for investment ending the fiscal
year at 1.14%, down from 3.27% at September 2021. Bank
loan allowance for credit losses as a percent of total loans
held for investment was 0.91%, and bank loan allowance for
credit losses on corporate loans as a percent of corporate
loans held for investment was 1.73%. The Bank segment is
well positioned for a continued rise in short-term interest
rates, and we have ample funding and capital to grow the
balance sheet prudently.
Complementing the outstanding performance within
our businesses, we also achieved several other notable
accomplishments during the fiscal year:
• Our associates and advisors continue to give back and
support the communities where we live and work. This year
during Raymond James Cares Month, an annual tradition
of month-long focused giving, more than 2,800 advisors
and associates volunteered over 7,000 hours to benefit
approximately 230 charitable organizations across the
United States, Canada and the U.K. Additionally, between
associate contributions and a company match, Raymond
James raised $7.2 million for communities across the
United States through its 2021 United Way campaign and
our associates raised nearly $450,000 for the American
Heart Association through the 2021 Heart Walk. While it
is incredible to see our associates and advisors step up
year after year for these annual giving events, recently I
was humbled by the resilience of our associates, advisors
and the community impacted by Hurricane Ian, as well
as by the extraordinary response across the firm to assist
in the support and recovery for those in need. Associates
collected two semi-trucks of supplies, which were sent to
our Fort Myers branch system to be distributed by advisors
and associates in the area. Additionally, the firm raised
close to $1 million from corporate, executive leadership
and associate donations to aid in relief efforts.
• In our 2020 pledge to the Black community, we committed
to distribute $1.5 million over three years to support
advancement of our Black communities, racial equality,
financial literacy and empowerment, and volunteerism
opportunities. To date, we have distributed $975,000 to
12 high-impact charitable organizations across 10 cities.
The remaining funds are expected to be distributed

by June 2023, fulfilling the initial three-year commitment. I encourage you
to review our 2022 Corporate Responsibility Report to learn more about
these organizations. These partnerships are complements to our sustained
relationships with national organizations, such as Junior Achievement and
Habitat for Humanity, as well as local programs we have cultivated over many
years in the Tampa Bay community, where we are headquartered.
OUR CORE VALUES
Since the founding of Raymond
James in 1962, our core values have
guided our business, leading us to
do what’s right for clients, advisors,
associates and our communities.
• In addition to our six associate inclusion networks, and in partnership with
business units across the firm, we have established 20 department-specific
diversity & inclusion councils. Our goal across all inclusion networks and
councils is to raise cultural awareness, develop leaders, build networks and
be a valued resource to our businesses.
• Raymond James was also recognized in other major lists for overall corporate
reputation and diversity and inclusion programs, and the number of advisors
who were named to industry lists across various categories has grown
significantly, approaching 530 advisors.
This year, we also are expressing our deep appreciation for Susan Story’s
tenure on the Raymond James Board of Directors. Since joining us in 2008 as
a director and becoming our lead independent director in 2016, she’s helped
guide us not only to sustained growth and profitability, but also through the
Great Recession, COVID-19 and today’s complicated and challenging economic
environment. As her time with us comes to an end, I join the other directors in
expressing our appreciation for her counsel and contributions, leaving behind
an excellent example for the incoming lead independent director Jeff Edwards.
While there are many uncertainties heading into fiscal 2023, I’m confident that
with our strong capital and liquidity position, along with a flexible balance
sheet, we are well positioned to drive growth across our businesses. In times
like these it is even more important that we stay true to our culture – focusing on
serving clients, remaining conservative and making decisions for the long term.
Our client-first culture is special – something that has been built day by day
through the diligent efforts of our associates and advisors to support each
other and clients over the past 60 years. I want to thank every associate and
advisor for their unwavering dedication to serving clients, which results in
long-term profitability through different market environments.
Thank you for your continued trust and confidence in Raymond James.

Investing in what matters most
The story of ESG at Raymond James is one of who the firm has always been, and
how we plan to meet the future by focusing on what matters most to us.
“I can say with confidence that we’re different.”
This is how Heather Knable, chief administrative officer
of finance and sustainability, sums up the approach to
environmental, social and governance (ESG) opportunities
at Raymond James.
“We think in terms of those three letters – E, S and G – but
more importantly, we consider how they align to our values.
There’s this idea that firms ask ‘How do we satisfy the outside
world and tick the right boxes?,’ and that’s the only reason
we do ESG work. But that’s not where we start at Raymond
James. We go back to our core values and ask ‘What enhances
our commitment to these values?,’ and that’s what gets our
investment and energy.”
From the firm’s own giving, community involvement, and diversity,
equity and inclusion efforts to focused equity research and
investment products, the role of ESG at Raymond James is
multifaceted and operates in balance with the firm’s full array of
offerings. And it’s nothing new.
“These are things we have been and would still be prioritizing
even without the emergence of ESG as a standard,” Heather
said. “However, there are some areas where having more formal
industry philosophies and expectations helps us think about
things differently.”
The delineation of ESG as a discipline within the financial
services space has naturally and necessarily led to the
formalization of Raymond James’ own practices. The firm
orients its efforts and tracks progress across four pillars:
community, people, sustainability and governance.
A critical step forward was elevating Heather and other key
leaders into internal oversight roles alongside a thoughtful
reorganization. “We’ve come together and aligned our strategy
for ESG, creating better transparency and awareness across
that landscape,” Heather said. “Now we can validate the great
work that was already being done and create the architecture
that will keep it growing.”
In 2022, an internal evaluation led to a restructuring of the
existing board committees – the Corporate Governance,
Nominating and Compensation Committee divided to form
two new committees: the Corporate Governance and ESG
Committee and the Compensation and Talent Committee.
These board committees provide oversight of a new
management ESG committee comprised of senior executives
and the leaders responsible for the firm’s ESG pillars.
Commitment to community – part of our DNA since Raymond
James was founded – is where Andrea Masterson’s impact
is felt. As a leader of our corporate responsibility efforts,
Andrea works with Chair Emeritus Tom James to guide the
ways the firm gives back, including our pledge to the Black
community. In our second year of fulfilling that promise, we
have put $975,000 of the pledged $1.5 million to work in
targeted ways in communities across the U.S.
Pedro Suriel’s efforts fall primarily within the “people”
column, where the senior vice president of diversity and
inclusion works to further realize the firm’s vision of being
a place where associates feel free to bring their whole
selves to work. This year two new groups were added to
the firm’s array of inclusion networks – the Veteran Financial
Advisors Network and the Encore Inclusion Network for
experienced professionals.
Considering sustainability within our business activities
aligns with the firm’s core value of thinking long term. In
her role as the Private Client Group’s head of sustainable
investing, Samantha Trebesch works with investment
specialists across Raymond James to support advisors as
they manage assets according to their clients’ values and risk
preferences – approximately $8 billion as of 2022. She also
oversees capability developments with continual advisor
input to ensure choice is preserved and celebrated.
And it’s all united under the aforementioned committees,
whose collective oversight and collaboration Heather sees
1 2
ANNUAL REPORT 2022 I N V E S T I N G I N W H A T M A T T E R S M O S T
as the linchpin of our one-firm, enterprise-wide approach.
“It’s a really good indicator to the outside world that we’re
committed to doing this well and doing it intentionally.
It’s easy to get caught up in ‘shiny new toys’ and outside
influences, but one thing I’m proud of is that we decide
what matters most to us and make that our North Star.”
“ We’re not doing this to chase a
trend or follow the crowd; we’re
doing these things for us and what
we believe is right – for our clients,
colleagues and communities.”

FULFILLING OUR PROMISE
In 2020, Raymond James made a commitment to the Black
community. That commitment included an initial monetary pledge.
As of 2022, we have given $975,000 of the
pledged $1.5 million to 12 organizations.
And each gift has been made in partnership with the
organizations themselves with support from associates and
colleagues who were in these communities and already
working with these organizations. The firm wasn’t seeking
to just make donations, according to Andrea Masterson,
“Instead we asked, ‘Where can we invest that’s going to
improve your ability to do what’s on your road map?’”

Growing the right way
Raymond James was TriState Capital’s largest depositor in 2019 when, in alignment
with our corporate development strategy, the search for a firm that shares our values
and provides excellent service to clients led us to a familiar place.
“It was a perfect cultural fit.”
This is how Paul Shoukry, chief financial officer of Raymond
James, describes the values alignment that formed the
bedrock of the firm’s 2022 acquisition of TriState Capital
Holdings Inc. In fact, it was a bit like looking in a mirror.
Entrepreneurial.
Long-term oriented.
Client first.
The acquisition of TriState Capital Holdings, completed in
June, is mutually beneficial. TriState Capital, a banking and
asset management firm and a leading provider of securities
based loans, will remain independent and leverage the
strength of Raymond James’ balance sheet to fuel continued
growth. And Raymond James, by adding a new bank charter and
a sophisticated national liquidity and treasury management
business, is able to provide additional internal FDIC-insured
deposit capacity to PCG clients as well as diversify our
deposit-gathering capabilities.
Such efforts to enhance our offerings and better our firm
always begin with careful consideration: A company must be
a good fit culturally and make good business sense before
any talk of valuation.
TriState checked every box.
“We admired their leading position in offering securities based
lending through a scalable and robust technology platform,”
Shoukry said. “But the way they treat advisors like clients and
1 4
ANNUAL REPORT 2022 enable advisors to deepen their client relationships through lending
capabilities is a perfect cultural fit. Culture was the most critical piece
of this transaction.”
The notion that clients deserved a level of service large banks weren’t
providing was a driving force in the founding of TriState Capital in 2006.
Remaining as a separately chartered bank, TriState Capital continues to
serve its clients with premier private banking, commercial lending and
treasury management solutions.
“We founded TriState Capital because we saw an incredible opportunity
to build a successful company built on a commitment to independence,
a long-term perspective, integrity and putting clients squarely at the
center of everything we do and every decision we make,” said Jim
Getz, chairman and founder of TriState Capital. “Raymond James
shares those values.”
TriState Capital operates as a stand-alone business and independently
chartered bank subsidiary of Raymond James. As a leading provider of
private banking solutions for independent and registered investment
advisors across the country, TriState’s ability to continue to serve its
advisors and clients was a critical element of the acquisition.
“It was important to find a partner that respected our client relationships,
valued our team and allowed us to continue operating independently,”
said Brian Fetterolf, TriState Capital president and CEO.
TriState Capital has grown rapidly – and that growth is expected to
continue. The leadership team whose vision is reflected in TriState’s
business model remains in place, as does a team of roughly 350
associates, many of whom were purposefully recruited from big banks
and drawn to TriState’s personalized approach. Raymond James’
strong balance sheet will provide supplemental capital and liquidity to
continue enabling its fast-growing and highly scalable business model
to meet clients’ commercial and securities based lending needs.
TriState Capital is equally invested in our future – the majority of
the acquisition consideration was in Raymond James Financial
stock, a show of confidence that will allow TriState to share in the
upside of the collective organization.
“TriState Capital has engaged and inspirational leaders who are
committed for the long term,” Shoukry said. “From the start, we
recognized the cultural alignment, from the conservative manner in
which they manage their balance sheet to their focus on clients. And
that cultural fit was only reinforced as we got to know them better.”
G R O W I N G T H E R I G H T W A Y
EXPANDED ASSET MANAGEMENT OFFERINGS
In 2014, TriState Capital joined forces with Chartwell
Investment Partners, a boutique asset management
firm that allowed TriState to expand its capabilities
and its income statement. Included in the acquisition,
Chartwell maintains its independent management
and branding while operating as a subsidiary
of Raymond James Investment Management.
With combined assets under management of
approximately $64.2 billion as of September 30,
2022, Chartwell benefits from the ability to leverage
Raymond James Investment Management’s multi-
boutique structure to increase scale, drive distribution
and realize operational and marketing synergies.
CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT
Our intentional approach to capital management
ensures we are consistently in a strong position to
strategically deploy capital in pursuit of growth.
Fiscal 2022 was an especially successful year.
Along with TriState Capital, we acquired Charles
Stanley Group and SumRidge Partners, each of
which met our criteria of being a good cultural fit,
providing strategic purpose and making finance
sense for our shareholders:
• Charles Stanley Group, a wealth management
firm based in the United Kingdom with nearly 200
wealth managers, will accelerate the growth in the
U.K. while providing affiliation options consistent
with our model in the United States and Canada.
• SumRidge Partners, a technology-driven, fixed
income market maker specializing in investment-
grade and high-yield corporate bonds, municipal
bonds and institutional preferred securities.

A future-focused homecoming
Helping advisors and associates return to the workspaces they call home was as
much an exercise in coming back as it was in defining how we’ll move forward.
“We were already beginning to reimagine what it looked
like to work at Raymond James.”
According to CEO Paul Reilly, responding to the early days of
the COVID-19 pandemic hit fast-forward on those plans. The
firm had been in the nascent stages of a long-range initiative
to enhance employee mobility and create the Raymond
James “office of the future.”
“We recognized the need to do something on the mobility
front pre-pandemic,” Paul said, “but COVID-19 accelerated
that thinking.”
When it came time to prepare for the opposite, however –
to bring people back into the spaces they’d worked and
collaborated in for years – the key to the plan was a
willingness to hit pause.
“Throughout the return-to-office process, Paul felt very strongly
about putting safety first, but also about listening to people,”
said Chris Aisenbrey, chief human resources officer. “It was
continually ‘People first. Give them time. Slow and steady.’
We recognized where we needed to go was a departure from
where we’d been pre-COVID-19.
“I think the success of our return and the difference in our
approach has been that top-down belief in letting people
guide this process. Throughout it all, culture was at the fore.”
One of the central elements of Raymond James’ culture –
listening and an enthusiastic openness to new ideas
and perspectives – drove how the key teams involved
approached planning the return.
Leaders from Risk Management, Human Resources, Legal,
Technology, PCG and Facilities headed up the process,
managing input from other critical areas of the firm and
feedback from advisors and associates – whether they were
“ I think the success of our return and
the difference in our approach has
been that top-down belief in letting
people guide this process. Throughout
it all, culture was at the fore.”

1 6
ANNUAL REPORT 2022 eager to be back or still cautious. The emphasis on patience and people
resulted in a plan that was equal parts methodical and adaptable: aligning
work style and mobility with job function and bringing people back in ways
that made them feel heard and supported.
Ahead of the plan’s rollout, opportunities for remote and safe in-person
connection were encouraged across the firm and included things like team
caravans to food drives and Zoom happy hours. For the official return
(moved in response to rising COVID-19 variants from September 2021 to
December 2021, and to January 2022), the group had high hopes of creating
a truly celebratory atmosphere – welcome-back meals, department-led
events, a Bucs watch party for the Super Bowl. Then the omicron variant
began its surge and the group hit pause and rethought, again.
Celebration took the safer form of welcome packages placed on desks – or
sent by mail – to greet associates, and a hub of resources to help managers
and teams continue fostering community while we eased into a time when
larger events were safe.
As important as the ability to pause was to the process, pauses weren’t
universal. Unique sets of circumstances across the country were carefully
considered. There were areas where transmission was low and office
environments that were open, well-ventilated and home to smaller teams.
Even though the return plan prioritized the greater good, it was never
one-size-fits-all. Leaders were empowered to make decisions specific to
business needs coupled with associate preferences, always with safety as
the North Star. That meant there were variances in how mobility looked for
each branch and area of the firm – variability that will carry forward.
Having achieved what we set out to with the return, we’ve gone from fast-
forward to pause and now we’re approaching something closer to the state
of play originally envisioned for the mobility initiative back in 2019.
“The conversation is getting back to mobility not in reaction to circumstances
beyond our control, but as an element of our vision for the future of the
firm and flexibility for advisors and associates,” said Joe Weldon, head of
organization and talent development. “We’re seeing the value of being
together again alongside the benefits of that enhanced portability – now
what? Do we need to rethink our corporate footprint? Do we need to
reimagine physical spaces? That learning and planning is continuing.”
Joe and his team will launch a census survey in early 2023 to take the
temperature of associates across the country and combine that data with
everything we’ve learned since 2020.
Added Paul, “Now that we’ve proven we can be successful operating more
remotely and still feel like Raymond James, the question becomes how do
we continue to reinforce the resilience of that culture so we preserve who
we are while growing into the future.”

SAFETY FIRST
Of the areas that led the planning for
the return – Risk Management, Human
Resources, Legal, Technology, PCG
leadership and Facilities – one team’s
work stood out as particularly heroic.
“Facilities did so much to ensure our
workspaces were safe,” said Chief Human
Resources Officer Chris Aisenbrey. “From
completely reimagining our office cleaning
procedures to meet protocols to coordinating
the mailing of COVID-19 testing kits to
associates ahead of the return; that team
stepped up for all of us.”

An advisor growth engine
As PCG kept its momentum through external growth factors in 2022, it also turned
that energy inward to help financial advisors go further.
“I think the most important growth story this year was how
we invested even further – whether via complementary
businesses or firm resources – in the things that help
advisors grow their practices.”
While Raymond James continued to generate strong recruitment
results and net new assets in 2022, Kim Jenson, chief operating
officer of PCG emphasized a special focus on thoughtful
investments. “Our goal is to help advisors create engines for
their own sustainable growth.”
Technology, an area that has played perhaps the most critical
role in advisors’ operations over the past few years, made
feedback-driven enhancements across its core applications. More
specifically, priority was given to developing and refining tools
like Opportunities, Proposal, Smart Forms and enhancements to
Client Onboarding that give advisors broader insight into clients’
full wealth picture and increase the scope and ease with which
they can support clients with substantial wealth.
That emphasis on generating opportunities for advisors to
more deeply engage their most significant relationships echoed
across the firm, informing how we approached recruiting and
enhanced the visibility of firm resources, including two key
areas: Investment Banking and Private Wealth.
Raymond James’ private wealth services have long been a
game-changing resource for advisors who serve high-net-worth
and ultra-high-net-worth clients, and in 2022, the effort to
heighten awareness of these capabilities and the people who
support them started a renaissance.
The firm’s capabilities were elevated through an educational
program, networking opportunities, and creating internal and
external marketing resources that more effectively packaged
Private Wealth and its integrated suite of offerings, and defined
a unifying ethos to help advisors communicate Raymond
James’ specialized approach and services to clients.
The highlight of Private Wealth’s resurgent year, however, was
the rollout of a certification curriculum that will recognize
already-qualified advisors and create the next generation of
specialized professionals: the Private Wealth Advisor program.
One of the program’s first graduates, Káon Nelson, called it a
validation that he’s where he belongs.
“ I think the most important
growth story this year was how
we invested even further –
whether via complementary
businesses or firm resources –
in the things that help advisors
grow their practices.”

Bruce Cacho-Negrete, CFP®, Lisa Detanna, AIF®, MBA, WMS, John Petty III, AIF®, MBA, Vicky S. Campbell, CFP®, CIMA®, CPWA®
“Participating in the inaugural class was incredible.” Káon shared “I
was there with people who’ve built really significant practices. And
having conversations and idea exchanges with them, it showed me
I can compete on this level. It was a really enlightening experience
and one that validated that I’m where I need to be.”
“Investment Banking embraced me from the day I walked
in,” Todd said. “Ken [Grider, managing director] and I spoke
several times early on, and I told him about my relationships
with business owners and CEOs, and that I was happy to help
if I could.”
Despite the fresh credit to add to his CFP®, CPWA® and AAMS®
certifications, Káon wasn’t new to Private Wealth. “Over years
of putting myself in front of the right people and cultivating
relationships, I’d built a clientele of successful families, and
that put me in touch with the Private Wealth folks.”
With the program complete and the support of the team behind
him, Káon plans to explore how that engine of expertise can be
put to optimal use for his clients and his business. “Now that I’m
through the program, the next step is an audit of my practice.
Knowing what Private Wealth brings to the table and knowing
what I have a pretty high proficiency with – what blanks can
my internal partners help me fill in? No one has ever achieved
success alone; help is a wonderful thing, and I’m all for it.”
Investment Banking might not seem like an obvious advisor
resource, but it’s another area of the firm – historically, one
of our most successful – that has been a powerful source of
growth for advisors and their business owner clients for years.
When Todd Kingsley joined the firm as part of the Alex. Brown
acquisition in 2016, he brought along decades of experience
working with investment banks on behalf of his clients.
CFP Board owns the CFP® marks in the United States.
Those conversations resulted in Todd attending Investment
Banking’s first Institute for Business Owner Excellence (IBex)
conference, and Todd’s attendance at that conference resulted
in his first official deal with the team.
Today, Todd says he and his colleagues are in regular contact
with Ken and the rest of Investment Banking and have more
deals in the pipeline.
“If you’re interested in offering clients investment banking
support, I believe this is the best place in the business to do it –
because no other firm appreciates the relationships advisors
have with their clients more than this one. Raymond James
sees us as collaborators, as partners.”
Partnering with advisors – and connecting them with business
units and specialized teams that help them continually expand
what they can offer clients – has been a hallmark of Raymond
James since the firm’s inception. And 60 years later, investing in
those partnerships with resources, innovation and a culture of
community is still driving growth for all of us.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
PART I
Raymond James Financial, Inc. (“RJF” or the “firm”) is a leading diversified financial services company providing private
client group, capital markets, asset management, banking and other services to individuals, corporations and municipalities.
The firm, together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in various financial services activities, including providing investment
management services to retail and institutional clients, merger & acquisition and advisory services, the underwriting,
distribution, trading and brokerage of equity and debt securities, and the sale of mutual funds and other investment products.
The firm also provides corporate and retail banking services, and trust services. The firm operates predominantly in the United
States (“U.S.”) and, to a lesser extent, in Canada, the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), and other parts of Europe. As used herein, the
terms “our,” “we,” or “us” refer to RJF and/or one or more of its subsidiaries.
Established in 1962 and public since 1983, RJF is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol
“RJF.” As a bank holding company (“BHC”) and financial holding company (“FHC”), RJF is subject to supervision,
examination and regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“the Fed”).
Among the keys to our historical and continued success, our emphasis on putting the client first is at the core of our corporate
values. We also believe in maintaining a conservative, long-term focus in our decision making. We believe that this
disciplined decision-making approach translates to a strong, stable financial services firm for clients, associates, and
shareholders.
REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
We currently operate through the following five segments: Private Client Group (“PCG”); Capital Markets; Asset Management;
Bank; and Other.
The following graph depicts the relative net revenue contribution of each of our business segments for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2022.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Private Client Group
We provide financial planning, investment advisory and securities transaction services to clients through financial advisors.
Total client assets under administration (“AUA”) in our PCG segment as of September 30, 2022 were $1.04 trillion, of which
$586.0 billion related to fee-based accounts (“fee-based AUA”). We had 8,681 employee and independent contractor financial
advisors affiliated with us as of September 30, 2022.
Affiliation
We offer multiple affiliation options, which we refer to as AdvisorChoice. Financial advisors primarily affiliate with us directly
as either employees or independent contractors, or as employees of the third-party Registered Investment Advisors (“RIAs”)
and broker-dealers to which we provide services through our RIA and Custody Services (“RCS”) division.
Employee financial advisors
Employee financial advisors work in a traditional branch supported by local management and administrative staff. They
provide services predominantly to retail clients. Compensation for these financial advisors primarily includes a payout on
revenues they generate and such advisors also participate in the firm’s employee benefit plans.
Independent contractor financial advisors
Our financial advisors who are independent contractors are responsible for all of their direct costs and, accordingly, receive a
higher payout percentage on the revenues they generate than employee financial advisors. Our independent contractor financial
advisor options are designed to help our advisors build their businesses with as much or as little of our support as they
determine they need. Independent contractor financial advisors may affiliate with us directly or through an affiliated bank or
credit union in our Financial Institutions Division. With specific approval, and on a limited basis, they are permitted to conduct
certain other approved business activities, such as offering insurance products, independent registered investment advisory
services, and accounting and tax services.
RIA and Custody Services
Through our domestic RCS division, we offer third-party RIAs and broker-dealers a range of products and services including
custodial services, trade execution, research and other support and services (including access to clients’ account information
and the services of the Asset Management segment) for which we receive fees, which may be either transactional or based on
AUA. Firms affiliated with us through RCS retain the fees they charge to their clients and are responsible for all of their direct
costs. Financial advisors associated with firms in RCS are not included in our financial advisor counts, although their client
assets are included in our AUA. AUA associated with firms in our RCS division totaled $108.5 billion as of September 30,
2022.
Products and services
We offer a broad range of third-party and proprietary investment products and services to meet our clients’ various investment
and financial needs. Revenues from this segment are typically driven by AUA and are generally either asset-based or
transactional in nature.

PCG segment net revenues for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 are presented in the following graph.
Net Revenues — $7.71 billion
* Included in “Brokerage revenues” on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
We provide the following products and services through this segment:
•
•
•
Investment services for which we charge sales commissions or asset-based fees based on established schedules.
Portfolio management services for which we charge either a fee computed as a percentage of the assets in the client’s
account or a flat periodic fee.
Insurance and annuity products.
• Mutual funds.
•
•
Support to third-party mutual fund and annuity companies, including sales and marketing support, distribution, and
accounting and administrative services.
Administrative services to banks to which we sweep a portion of our clients’ cash deposits as part of the Raymond James
Bank Deposit Program (“RJBDP”), our multi-bank sweep program. Fees received from third-party banks for these
services are variable in nature and fluctuate based on client cash balances in the program, as well as the level of short-term
interest rates relative to interest paid to clients by the third-party banks on balances in the RJBDP. PCG also earns fees
from our Bank segment, which are based on the greater of a base servicing fee or net yield equivalent to the average yield
that the firm would otherwise receive from third-party banks in the RJBDP. These fees are eliminated in consolidation.
• Margin loans to clients that are collateralized by the securities purchased or by other securities owned by the client.
Interest is charged to clients on the amount borrowed based on current interest rates.
•
•
•
Securities borrowing and lending activities with other broker-dealers, financial institutions and other counterparties. The

Capital Markets
Our Capital Markets segment conducts investment banking, institutional sales, securities trading, equity research, and the
syndication and management of investments in low-income housing funds and funds of a similar nature, the majority of which
qualify for tax credits (referred to as our “affordable housing investments” business).
Capital Markets segment net revenues for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 are presented in the following graph.
Net Revenues — $1.81 billion
* Included in “Investment banking” on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
We provide the following products and services through this segment.
Investment banking
• Merger & acquisition and advisory - We provide a comprehensive range of strategic and financial advisory
assignments, including with respect to mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and restructurings, across a number of
industries throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
•
•
Equity underwriting - We provide public and private equity financing services, including the underwriting and
placement of common and preferred stock and other equity securities, to corporate clients throughout the U.S., Canada,
and Europe across a number of industries.

placement agent or underwriter to various issuers, including private and public corporate entities, state and local
government agencies (and their political subdivisions), and non-profit entities including healthcare and higher
education institutions.

Brokerage
•
•
Fixed income - We earn revenues from institutional clients who purchase and sell both taxable and tax-exempt fixed
income products, municipal, corporate, government agency and mortgage-backed bonds, and whole loans, as well as
from our market-making activities in fixed income debt securities. We carry inventories of debt securities to facilitate
such transactions.
We also enter into interest rate derivatives to facilitate client transactions or to actively manage risk exposures that
arise from our client activity, including a portion of our trading inventory. In addition, we conduct a “matched book”
derivatives business where we may enter into interest rate derivative transactions with clients. In this matched book
business, for every derivative transaction we enter into with a client, we enter into an offsetting derivative transaction
with a credit support provider that is a third-party financial institution.
Equity - We earn brokerage revenues on the sale of equity products to institutional clients. Client activity is
influenced by a combination of general market activity and our ability to identify attractive investment opportunities
for our institutional clients. Revenues on equity transactions are generally based on trade size and the amount of
business conducted annually with each institution.
Our global research department supports our institutional and retail sales efforts and publishes research on a wide
variety of companies. This research primarily focuses on U.S. and Canadian companies across a multitude of
industries. Research reports are made available to both institutional and retail clients.
Affordable housing investments business
We act as the general partner or managing member in partnerships and limited liability companies that invest in real estate
entities, the majority of which qualify for tax credits under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code and/or provide a
mechanism for banks and other institutions to meet their Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) obligations throughout the
U.S. We earn fees for the origination and sale of these investment products as well as for the oversight and management of the
investments, including over the statutory tax credit compliance period when applicable.
Asset Management
Our Asset Management segment earns asset management and related administrative fees for providing asset management,
portfolio management and related administrative services to retail and institutional clients. This segment oversees a portion of
our fee-based AUA for our PCG clients through our Asset Management Services division (“AMS”) and through Raymond
James Trust, N.A. (“RJ Trust”). This segment also provides asset management services through our Raymond James
Investment Management division (“Raymond James Investment Management,” formerly referred to as Carillon Tower
Advisers), for certain retail accounts managed on behalf of third-party institutions, institutional accounts, and proprietary
mutual funds that we manage, generally using active portfolio management strategies.
Management fees in this segment are generally calculated as a percentage of the value of our fee-billable financial assets under
management (“AUM”) in both AMS, which includes the portion of fee-based AUA in PCG that is overseen by AMS, and
Raymond James Investment Management, where investment decisions are made by in-house or third-party portfolio managers
or investment committees. The fee rates applied are dependent upon various factors, including the distinct services provided
and the level of assets within each client relationship. The fee rates applied in Raymond James Investment Management may
also vary based on the account objective (i.e., equity, fixed income, or balanced). Our AUM are impacted by market
fluctuations and net inflows or outflows of assets, including transfers between fee-based accounts and transaction-based
accounts within our PCG segment. Fees are generally collected quarterly and are based on balances as of the beginning of the
quarter (particularly in AMS) or the end of the quarter, or based on average daily balances throughout the quarter.
Our Asset Management segment also earns administrative fees on certain fee-based assets within PCG that are not overseen by
our Asset Management segment, but for which the segment provides administrative support (e.g., record-keeping).
7
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Our AUM and our Raymond James Investment Management AUM by objective as of September 30, 2022 are presented in the
following graphs.
Bank
Our Bank segment reflects the results of our banking operations, including the results of Raymond James Bank, a Florida-
chartered state bank and Fed member bank, and TriState Capital Bank, a Pennsylvania-chartered state bank, which was
acquired on June 1, 2022 in our acquisition of TriState Capital Holdings, Inc. (“TriState Capital”). We provide various types of
loans, including securities-based loans (“SBL”), corporate loans (commercial and industrial (“C&I”), commercial real estate
(“CRE”) and real estate investment trust (“REIT”) loans), residential mortgage loans, and tax-exempt loans. Our Bank segment
is active in corporate loan syndications and participations and lending directly to clients. We also provide Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)-insured deposit accounts, including to clients of our broker-dealer subsidiaries, and other
deposit and liquidity management products and services. The Bank segment generates net interest income principally through
the interest income earned on loans and an investment portfolio of available-for-sale securities, which is offset by the interest
expense it pays on client deposits and on its borrowings.
As of September 30, 2022, corporate and tax-exempt loans represented approximately 37% of the Bank segment’s total assets,
and 73% of such loans were U.S. and Canadian syndicated loans. Residential mortgage loans are originated or purchased and
held for investment or sold in the secondary market. The Bank segment’s investment portfolio is primarily comprised of
agency mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and agency collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) and is classified as
available-for-sale. The Bank segment’s liabilities primarily consist of cash deposits, including those at Raymond James Bank
that are primarily swept from the investment accounts of PCG clients through the RJBDP, as well as those at TriState Capital
Bank, which are primarily money market and interest-bearing checking accounts. The Bank segment’s liabilities also include
borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”).

Our Other segment includes our private equity investments, which predominantly consist of investments in third-party funds,
interest income on certain corporate cash balances, certain acquisition-related expenses, primarily comprised of professional
fees, and certain corporate overhead costs of RJF, including the interest costs on our public debt and any losses on
extinguishment of such debt.
HUMAN CAPITAL
Our “associates” (which include our employee financial advisors and all of our other employees) and our independent
contractor financial advisors (which we call our “independent advisors”) are vital to our success in the financial services
industry. As a human capital-intensive business, our ability to attract, develop, and retain exceptional and diverse associates
and independent advisors is critical, not only in the current competitive labor market, but also to our long-term success. It is
important to us to maintain a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion. To compete effectively, we must offer attractive
compensation and health and wellness programs and workplace flexibility, as well as provide formal and informal opportunities
for associates and advisors to develop their capabilities and reach their full potential. We also endeavor to foster and maintain
our unique and long-standing values-based culture.
As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately 17,000 associates (including 3,638 employee financial advisors) and 5,043
independent advisors. The growth in the number of associates compared to the prior year was due in part to our acquisitions
completed during fiscal 2022. Our associates are spread across four countries in North America and Europe. However, the vast
majority of our associates are located in the U.S. Of our global associates, 44% self-identify as women, and among our U.S.-
based associates, 19% self-identify as ethnically diverse.
Culture
We strive to attract individuals who are people-focused and share our values. Our values are memorialized in a document we
refer to as our culture “blueprint” that is communicated to all associates. Our culture is people-focused and rooted in the values
established at the firm’s foundation. Our pledge to clients, to our advisors, and to all our other associates is that:
•
•
•
•
we put clients first,
we act with integrity,
we think long term, and
we value independence.

One way in which we measure the health of our culture is through firmwide short and targeted surveys in which we routinely
ask our associates about their experiences at the firm. Feedback provided through these surveys is also used to create and
continually enhance programs that support our associates’ needs.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion
We are committed to maintaining a diverse workforce, and an inclusive work environment is a natural extension of our culture.
We are committed to ensuring that all our associates feel welcomed, valued, respected, and heard, so that they can fully
contribute their unique talents for the benefit of their careers, our clients, our firm, and our communities. Our diversity strategy
is centered on three pillars: the workplace, the workforce, and the community. In our recruiting efforts, we seek to identify a
diverse group of candidates for each role we seek to fill. To that end, we have built strong relationships with a variety of
industry associations that represent diverse professionals, as well as with diversity groups at the colleges and universities where
we recruit. We have firmwide and business unit-specific diversity and inclusion networks, which are open to all professionals
at the firm and are designed to promote and advance inclusion, understanding, and belonging. These networks also host various
events and conferences to educate and provide avenues for all associates and independent advisors to contribute to an inclusive
work environment, and offer mentorship opportunities to our associates. In order to continue to promote and advance inclusion,
we have recently launched or expanded certain programs, such as:
•
•
•
the Pride Financial Advisor Network, which provides support and resources for LGBTQ+ advisors through
educational programs, interactive networking and business development opportunities;
the Encore Inclusion Network, which provides support and opportunities for the growing mature workforce; and
the Veteran Financial Advisors Network, which is dedicated to supporting armed services veterans in the development
of their careers as financial advisors.
We also invest in community-supporting organizations that are dedicated to improving the lives of diverse individuals. Our
firmwide diversity, equity, and inclusion advisory council stewards the firm’s efforts and provides guidance on priorities. This
council is composed of associate representatives from all areas of our business and across geographic locations. In all of our
diversity efforts, we strive to create opportunities for allies of diverse communities to participate, contribute, and grow. We
believe that to truly achieve all of the benefits of having a diverse and inclusive workforce, all associates and advisors need to
be engaged in these discussions.
Recruitment, talent development, and retention
We seek to build a workforce that provides outstanding client service and helps clients achieve their financial goals. We have
competitive programs dedicated to selecting new talent and enhancing the skills of our associates. Among other opportunities,
we offer internships to selected college students, professionals returning to the workforce, and veterans, which may lead to
permanent roles, and we offer pipeline programs which accelerate the progression from entry level positions for recent
graduates across many areas of the firm. We are also committed to supporting associates in reaching their professional goals.
We conduct a formal annual goal setting and performance review process for each employee, which includes touch points
throughout the year. We also offer associates the opportunity to participate in a variety of professional development programs.
Our extensive program catalog includes courses designed to expand our associates’ industry, product, technical, professional,
business development, and regulatory knowledge. The firm also provides leadership development programs that prepare our
leaders for challenges they will face in new roles or with expanded responsibilities. To provide associates equal opportunity to
compete for new positions, we require that all roles, with the exception of certain revenue-generating positions and certain
senior-level roles, be posted on our internal online career platform. We conduct ongoing and robust succession planning for
roles that are within two levels of our Executive Committee, and we strive to ensure we have a diverse pool of candidates for
such roles. We discuss the results with executive leadership and the Board of Directors several times per year.
An important driver of our success is the continuous recruitment and retention of financial advisors. Our ability to attract high
quality advisors is based on our values-based culture, our commitment to service, and the unique ways in which we provide
services to our financial advisors. Individuals who want to become financial advisors can gain relevant branch experience
through our Wealth Management Associate Program or move to our Advisor Mastery Program and begin building their client
base. We have a department dedicated to providing practice education and management resources to our financial advisors.
We also offer these advisors the opportunity to participate in conferences and workshops, and we offer resources and coaching
at all levels to help them grow their businesses. These include separate national conferences for our employee and independent
contractor financial advisor channels, each of which is attended by thousands of advisors each year.
10
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
We also monitor and evaluate various turnover and attrition metrics. Our overarching commitment to the attraction,
development, and retention of our associates results in a relatively low annualized voluntary turnover rate. Importantly, our
financial advisor regrettable attrition rate for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022, was approximately 1%.
Compensation
We have designed a compensation structure, including an array of benefit plans and programs, that is intended to be attractive
to current and prospective associates, while also reinforcing our core values and mitigating excessive risk taking. Our
competitive pay packages include base salary, incentive bonus, and equity compensation programs. Additionally, the firm
makes annual contributions to support the retirement goals of each associate through our employee stock ownership plan and
our profit sharing plan, in addition to a matching contribution program for the 401(k) retirement savings plan. We also offer
associates the opportunity to participate in an employee stock purchase plan that enables them to acquire our common stock at a
discount, further increasing their ability to participate in the growth and success of the firm. As an additional retention tool, we
may grant equity awards in connection with initial employment or under various retention programs for individuals who are
responsible for contributing to our management, growth, and/or profitability. For certain employees who meet compensation,
production, or other criteria, we also offer various non-qualified deferred compensation plans that provide a return to the
participant, as well as a retention tool to the firm.
We strive to ensure that our programs are designed to promote equitable rewards for all associates. We have enhanced our
compensation practices with the goal of achieving pay equity at all levels of the organization for female and ethnically diverse
associates. Every year, we conduct pay equity studies in the U.S., U.K., and Canada and make adjustments in situations if there
is a pay equity gap.
The physical, emotional, and financial well-being of our associates is a high priority of the firm. To that end, programs
including healthcare insurance, health and flexible savings accounts, paid time off, family leave, flexible work schedules,
tuition assistance, counseling services, as well as on-site services at our corporate offices in St. Petersburg, Florida and
Memphis, Tennessee, which include health clinics and a fitness center. Additionally, following our return to office from the
COVID-19 pandemic, we have offered more workplace flexibility to our associates as we continue to evaluate our long-term
workplace strategy.
OPERATIONS AND INFORMATION PROCESSING
We have operations personnel at various locations who are responsible for processing securities transactions, custody of client
securities, support of client accounts, the receipt, identification and delivery of funds and securities, and compliance with
regulatory and legal requirements for most of our securities brokerage operations.
The information technology department develops and supports the integrated solutions that provide a customized platform for
our businesses. These include a platform for financial advisors designed to allow them to spend more time with their clients
and enhance and grow their businesses; systems that support institutional and retail sales and trading activity from initiation to
settlement and custody; and thorough security protocols to protect firm and client information. In the area of information
security, we have developed and implemented a framework of principles, policies and technology to protect our own
information and that of our clients. We apply numerous safeguards to maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of
both client and firm information.
Our business continuity program has been developed to provide reasonable assurance that we will continue to operate in the
event of disruptions at our critical facilities or other business disruptions. We have developed operational plans for such
disruptions, and we have devoted significant resources to maintaining those plans. Our business continuity plan continues to be
enhanced and tested to allow for continuous operations in the event of weather-related or other interruptions at our corporate
headquarters in Florida, one of our operations processing or data center sites (located in Florida, Colorado, Tennessee or
Michigan), and our branch and office locations throughout the U.S., Canada and Europe.
After successfully implementing business continuity protocols at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the following
period of working remotely, we implemented our return to office strategy during our fiscal second quarter of 2022. We have
offered more workplace flexibility to our associates as we continue to evaluate our long-term workplace strategy.
11
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
COMPETITION
The financial services industry is intensely competitive. We compete with many other financial services firms, including a
number of larger securities firms, most of which are affiliated with major financial services companies, insurance companies,
banking institutions and other organizations. We also compete with companies that offer web-based financial services and
discount brokerage services to individual clients, usually with lower levels of service, and, more recently, financial technology
companies (“fintechs”). We compete principally on the basis of the quality of our associates, services, product selection,
performance records, location and reputation in local markets.
Our ability to compete effectively is substantially dependent on our continuing ability to develop or attract, retain and motivate
qualified financial advisors, investment bankers, trading professionals, portfolio managers and other revenue-producing or
specialized personnel. Furthermore, the labor market continues to experience elevated levels of turnover in the aftermath of the
pandemic and an extremely competitive labor market, including increased competition for talent across all areas of our
business, as well as increased competition with non-traditional competitors, such as technology companies. Employers are
increasingly offering guaranteed contracts, upfront payments, increased compensation and increased opportunities to work with
greater flexibility, including remote work, on a permanent basis.
REGULATION
The following summarizes the principal elements of the regulatory and supervisory framework applicable to us as a participant
in the financial services industry. The framework includes extensive regulation under U.S. federal and state laws, as well as the
applicable laws of the jurisdictions outside the U.S. in which we do business. While this framework is intended to protect our
clients, the integrity of the financial markets, our depositors, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Fund, it is not intended to
protect our creditors or shareholders. These rules and regulations limit our ability to engage in certain activities, as well as our
ability to fund RJF from our regulated subsidiaries, which include our bank subsidiaries, Raymond James Bank and TriState
Capital Bank, our broker-dealer subsidiaries, and our trust subsidiaries. To the extent that the following information describes
statutory and regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the particular statutory and regulatory provisions
that are referenced. A change in applicable statutes or regulations or in regulatory or supervisory policy may have a material
effect on our business.
We continue to experience a period of notable changes in financial regulation and supervision. Changes in business
regulations, as well as in both corporate and individual taxation, could have a significant impact on our business, financial
condition, results of operations, and cash flows in the future; however, we cannot predict the exact changes or quantify their
potential impacts (see “Item 1A - Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K for further discussion of the potential future impact on our
operations).
Banking supervision and regulation
RJF is a BHC under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”), that has made an election to be a
FHC and is subject to regulation, oversight and consolidated supervision, including periodic examination, by the Fed. Under
the system of “functional regulation” established under the BHC Act, the primary regulators of our U.S. non-bank subsidiaries
directly regulate the activities of those subsidiaries, with the Fed exercising a supervisory role. Such “functionally regulated”
subsidiaries include our broker-dealers registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), such as Raymond
James & Associates, Inc. (“RJ&A”) and Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. (“RJFS”), and investment advisors registered
with the SEC with respect to their investment advisory activities, among other subsidiaries.
We have two depository institutions, Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank (collectively, “our bank subsidiaries”).
Raymond James Bank is an FDIC-insured depository institution and a Florida-chartered state member bank of the Fed that is
primarily supervised by both the Fed and the Florida Office of Financial Regulation (“OFR”). TriState Capital Bank is a FDIC-
insured depository institution and a Pennsylvania-chartered state non-member bank that is primarily supervised by both the
FDIC and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities (“PDBS”). Both Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital
Bank are also subject to supervision by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”).
We also have two non-depository trust company subsidiaries: RJ Trust, which is regulated, supervised, and examined by the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), and Raymond James Trust Company of New Hampshire (“RJTCNH”)
which is regulated, supervised, and examined by the New Hampshire Banking Department (“NHBD”). RJTCNH provides
Individual Retirement Account custodial services and trust services for our PCG clients.
12
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Collectively, the rules and regulations of the Fed, the FDIC, the OFR, the PDBS, the CFPB, the OCC and the NHBD result in
extensive regulation and supervision covering all aspects of our banking and trust businesses, including, for example, lending
practices, the receipt of deposits, capital structure, transactions with affiliates, conduct and qualifications of personnel and, as
discussed further in the following sections, capital requirements. This regulatory, supervisory and oversight framework is
subject to significant changes that can affect the operating costs and permissible businesses of RJF and our subsidiaries. As a
part of their supervisory functions, the Fed, the FDIC, the OFR, the PDBS, the CFPB, the OCC and the NHBD conduct
extensive examinations of our operations and also have the power to bring enforcement actions for violations of law and, in the
case of the Fed, the FDIC, the OFR, the PDBS, the OCC, and the NHBD for unsafe or unsound practices.
Basel III and U.S. capital rules
RJF and Raymond James Bank are subject to the Fed’s capital rules and TriState Capital Bank is subject to the FDIC’s capital
rules. These rules establish an integrated regulatory capital framework and implement, in the U.S., the Basel III capital
framework developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”) and other capital provisions, and, for insured depository institutions, set the
prompt corrective action framework discussed below to reflect the regulatory capital requirements (the “U.S. Basel III Rules”).
The U.S. Basel III Rules: (i) establish minimum requirements for both the quantity and quality of regulatory capital; (ii) set
forth a capital conservation buffer; and (iii) define the calculation of risk-weighted assets. These capital requirements could
restrict our ability to grow, including during favorable market conditions, and to return capital to shareholders, or require us to
raise additional capital. As a result, our business, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects could be
adversely affected. See “Item 1A - Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K for more information. See Note 24 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for further information.
Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can trigger discretionary, and in certain cases, mandatory actions by regulators
that could have a direct material effect on the financial results of RJF, Raymond James Bank, and TriState Capital Bank. In
addition, failure to maintain the capital conservation buffer would result in constraints on distributions, including limitations on
dividend payments and stock repurchases, and certain discretionary bonus payments based on the amount of the shortfall and
eligible retained income. Under the capital adequacy rules, RJF, Raymond James Bank, and TriState Capital Bank must meet
specific capital ratio requirements that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as
calculated under the rules. The capital amounts and classification for RJF, Raymond James Bank, and TriState Capital Bank
are also subject to the qualitative judgments of U.S. regulators based on components of capital, risk-weightings of assets, off-
balance sheet transactions and other factors.
Under applicable capital rules, RJF would need to obtain prior approval from the Fed if its repurchases or redemptions of equity
securities over a twelve-month period would reduce its net worth by ten percent or more and an exemption were not available.
Guidance from the Fed also provides that RJF would need to inform the Fed in advance of repurchasing common stock in
certain prescribed situations, such as if it were experiencing, or at risk of experiencing, financial weaknesses or considering
expansion, either through acquisitions or other new activities, or if the repurchase would result in a net reduction in common
equity over a quarter. Further, Fed guidance indicates that, pursuant to the Fed’s general supervisory and enforcement
authority, Fed supervisory staff should prevent a BHC from repurchasing its common stock if such action would be inconsistent
with the BHC’s prospective capital needs and safe and sound operation.
Source of strength
The Fed requires that BHCs, such as RJF, serve as a source of financial strength for any of its subsidiary depository institutions.
The term “source of financial strength” is defined as the ability of a company to provide financial assistance to its insured
depository institution subsidiaries in the event of financial distress at such subsidiaries. Under this requirement, RJF could be
required to provide financial assistance to Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank in the future should either bank
experience financial distress.
Transactions between affiliates
Transactions between (i) Raymond James Bank, TriState Capital Bank, RJ Trust, or their subsidiaries on the one hand and (ii)
RJF or its other subsidiaries or affiliates on the other hand are subject to compliance with Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal
Reserve Act and Regulation W issued by the Fed, which generally limit the types and amounts of such transactions that may
take place and generally require those transactions to be on market terms. These laws generally do not apply to transactions
between Raymond James Bank, TriState Capital Bank, RJ Trust, and any subsidiaries they may have.
13
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
The Volcker Rule, a provision of the Dodd-Frank Act, generally prohibits certain transactions and imposes a market terms
requirement on certain other transactions between (i) RJF or its affiliates on the one hand and (ii) covered funds for which RJF
or its affiliates serve as the investment manager, investment advisor, commodity trading advisor or sponsor, or other covered
funds organized and offered by RJF or its affiliates on the other hand. See “The Volcker Rule” in the following section.
Deposit insurance
Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank are subject to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act because they provide deposits
covered by FDIC insurance, generally up to $250,000 per account ownership type. For banks with greater than $10 billion in
assets, which includes Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank, the FDIC’s current assessment rate calculation relies
on a scorecard designed to measure a bank’s financial performance and ability to withstand stress, in addition to measuring the
FDIC’s exposure should Raymond James Bank or TriState Capital Bank fail.
Prompt corrective action
The U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) requires the U.S. federal bank
regulatory agencies to take “prompt corrective action” with respect to depository institutions that do not meet specified capital
requirements. FDICIA establishes five capital categories for FDIC-insured banks, such as Raymond James Bank and TriState
Capital Bank: well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically
undercapitalized.
An institution may be downgraded to, or deemed to be in, a capital category that is lower than the category indicated by its
capital ratios if the institution is determined to be in an unsafe or unsound condition or if it receives an unsatisfactory
examination rating with respect to certain matters. FDICIA imposes progressively more restrictive constraints on operations,
management and capital distributions, as the capital category of an institution declines. Failure to meet the capital requirements
could also require a depository institution to raise capital. Ultimately, critically undercapitalized institutions are subject to the
appointment of a receiver or conservator.
Although the prompt corrective action regulations do not apply to BHCs, such as RJF, the Fed is authorized to take appropriate
action at the BHC level, based upon the undercapitalized status of the BHC’s depository institution subsidiaries. In certain
instances related to an undercapitalized depository institution subsidiary, the BHC would be required to guarantee the
performance of the undercapitalized subsidiary’s capital restoration plan and might be liable for civil money damages for failure
to fulfill its commitments on that guarantee. Furthermore, in the event of the bankruptcy of the BHC, this guarantee would take
priority over the BHC’s general unsecured creditors. As of September 30, 2022, Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital
Bank were well-capitalized.
The Volcker Rule
RJF is subject to the Volcker Rule, which generally prohibits BHCs and their subsidiaries and affiliates from engaging in
proprietary trading, but permits underwriting, market making, and risk-mitigating hedging activities. The Volcker Rule also
prohibits BHCs and their subsidiaries and affiliates from acquiring or retaining ownership interests in, sponsoring, or having
certain relationships with “covered funds” (as defined in the rule), including hedge funds and private equity funds, subject to
certain exceptions.
Compensation practices
Our compensation practices are subject to oversight by the Fed. Compensation regulation in the financial industry continues to
evolve, and we expect these regulations to change over a number of years. The U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies have
provided guidance designed to ensure incentive compensation policies do not encourage imprudent risk-taking and are
consistent with safety and soundness. As required by SEC rules, we disclose in our proxy statements for each annual meeting
of shareholders the relationship of our compensation policies and practices to risk management initiatives, to the extent that the
risks arising from such policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the firm.
On August 25, 2022, the SEC adopted the final “pay-for-performance” rule mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act. Among other
disclosure requirements, the rule requires companies to disclose the relationships among named executive officer compensation
“actually paid,” total shareholder return and certain financial performance measures that the company uses to link compensation
to company performance for its five most recent fiscal years. The rule will first apply to disclosures in our proxy statement for
the 2024 annual shareholders meeting.
14
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Community Reinvestment Act regulations
Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank are subject to the CRA, which is intended to encourage banks to help meet the
credit needs of their communities, including low and moderate income neighborhoods, consistent with safe and sound bank
operations. Under the CRA, federal banking regulators are required to periodically examine and assign to each bank a public
CRA rating. If any insured depository institution subsidiary of a FHC fails to maintain at least a “satisfactory” rating under the
CRA, the FHC would be subject to restrictions on certain new activities and acquisitions.
On May 5, 2022, federal banking regulators requested comment on a joint notice of proposed rulemaking on the CRA. Until
the proposed rulemaking is final and effective, Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank will continue to operate under
the CRA regulations currently in effect. At this time, it is uncertain what effect the impending CRA regulations will have on
Raymond James Bank, TriState Capital Bank, and other depositories with respect to their CRA activities.
Other restrictions
FHCs, such as RJF, generally can engage in a broader range of financial and related activities than are otherwise permissible for
BHCs as long as they continue to meet the eligibility requirements for FHCs. Among other things, the broader range of
permissible activities for FHCs includes underwriting, dealing and making markets in securities and making investments in
non-FHCs or merchant banking activities. We are required to obtain Fed approval before engaging in certain banking and other
financial activities both within and outside the U.S.
The Fed, however, has the authority to limit an FHC’s ability to conduct activities that would otherwise be permissible, and will
likely do so if the FHC does not satisfactorily meet certain requirements of the Fed. For example, if an FHC or any of its U.S.
depository institution subsidiaries ceases to maintain its status as “well-capitalized” or “well-managed,” the Fed may impose
corrective capital and/or managerial requirements, as well as additional limitations or conditions. If the deficiencies persist, the
FHC may be required to divest its U.S. depository institution subsidiaries or to cease engaging in activities other than the
business of banking and certain closely related activities.
Broker-dealer and securities regulation
The SEC is the federal agency charged with administration of the federal securities laws in the U.S. Our U.S. broker-dealer
subsidiaries are subject to SEC regulations relating to their business operations, including sales and trading practices, public
offerings, publication of research reports, use and safekeeping of client funds and securities, capital structure, record-keeping,
privacy requirements, and the conduct of directors, officers and employees. Financial services firms are also subject to
regulation by state securities commissions in those states in which they conduct business. Our most significant U.S. broker-
dealers, RJ&A, RJFS, and SumRidge Partners, LLC (“SumRidge Partners”), are currently registered as broker-dealers in all 50
states.
Financial services firms are also subject to regulation by various foreign governments, securities exchanges, central banks and
regulatory bodies, particularly in those countries where they have established offices. Outside of the U.S., we have additional
offices primarily in Canada, the U.K., and Germany and are subject to regulations in those areas. Much of the regulation of
broker-dealers in the U.S. and Canada, however, has been delegated to self-regulatory organizations (“SROs”), such as the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) in the U.S., the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada
(“IIROC”), and securities exchanges. These SROs adopt and amend rules for regulating the industry, subject to the approval of
government agencies. These SROs also conduct periodic examinations of member broker-dealers. The single primary
regulator with respect to our conduct of financial services in the U.K. is the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which
operates on a statutory basis.
The SEC, SROs and state securities regulators may conduct administrative proceedings that can result in censure, fine,
suspension or expulsion of a broker-dealer, its officers, employees or other associated persons. Such administrative
proceedings, whether or not resulting in adverse findings, can require substantial expenditures and may adversely impact the
reputation of a broker-dealer.
Our U.S. broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the Securities Investor Protection Act (“SIPA”) and are required by federal
law to be members of the Securities Investors Protection Corporation (“SIPC”). The SIPC was established under SIPA, and
oversees the liquidation of broker-dealers during liquidation or financial distress. The SIPC fund provides protection for cash
and securities held in client accounts up to $500,000 per client, with a limitation of $250,000 on claims for cash balances.
15
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
U.S. broker-dealer capital
Our broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to certain of the SEC’s financial stability rules, including the: (i) net capital rule; (ii)
customer protection rule; (iii) record-keeping rules; and (iv) notification rules. Broker-dealers are required to maintain the
minimum net capital deemed necessary to meet their continuing commitments to customers and others, and are required to keep
their assets in relatively liquid form. These rules also limit the ability of broker-dealers to transfer capital to parent companies
and other affiliates. See Note 24 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for further information
pertaining to our broker-dealer regulatory minimum net capital requirements.
Standard of care
Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the SEC was charged with considering whether broker-dealers should be subject to a standard
of care similar to the fiduciary standard applicable to RIAs. In June 2019, the SEC adopted a package of rule-makings and
interpretations related to the provision of advice by broker-dealers and investment advisers, including Regulation Best Interest
and Form CRS. Among other things, Regulation Best Interest requires a broker-dealer to act in the best interest of a retail client
when making a recommendation to that client of any securities transaction or investment strategy involving securities. Form
CRS requires that broker-dealers and investment advisers provide retail investors with a brief summary document containing
simple, easy-to-understand information about the nature of the relationship between the parties. Our implementation of these
regulations resulted in the review and modification of certain of our policies and procedures and associated supervisory and
compliance controls, as well as the implementation of additional client disclosures, which included us providing related
education and training to financial advisors.
Various states have also proposed, or adopted, laws and regulations seeking to impose new standards of conduct on broker-
dealers that may differ from the SEC’s new regulations, which may lead to additional implementation costs. The Department of
Labor (“DOL”) has also reinstated the historical “five-part test” for determining who is an investment advice “fiduciary” when
dealing with certain retirement plans and accounts. In 2022, the DOL promulgated a new exemption that enables investment
advice fiduciaries to receive transaction-based compensation and engage in certain otherwise prohibited transactions, subject to
compliance with the exemption’s requirements. In addition, the DOL is expected to amend the five-part test by the end of 2023
so that the fiduciary standard would apply to a broader range of client relationships. Imposing such a new standard of care on
additional client relationships could result in incremental costs for our business and we are evaluating how these regulatory
changes may further impact our business.
Other non-U.S. regulation
Raymond James Ltd. (“RJ Ltd.”) is currently registered as an investment dealer in all provinces and territories in Canada. The
financial services industry in Canada is subject to comprehensive regulation under both federal and provincial laws. Securities
commissions have been established in all provinces and territorial jurisdictions, which are charged with the administration of
securities laws. Investment dealers in Canada are subject to regulation by IIROC, a SRO under the oversight of the securities
commissions that make up the Canadian Securities Administrators. IIROC is responsible for the enforcement of, and
conformity with, securities legislation for their members and has been granted the powers to prescribe their own rules of
conduct and financial requirements of members, including RJ Ltd. IIROC also requires that RJ Ltd. be a member of the
Canadian Investors Protection Fund, whose primary role is investor protection. This fund provides protection for securities and
cash held in client accounts up to 1 million Canadian dollars (“CAD”) per client, with additional coverage of CAD 1 million for
certain types of accounts.
Certain of our subsidiaries are registered in, and operate from, the U.K. which has a highly developed and comprehensive
regulatory regime. These subsidiaries are authorized and regulated by the FCA and have limited permissions to carry out
business in certain European Union (“E.U.”) countries as part of treaty arrangements. The FCA operates on a statutory basis
and creates rules which are largely principles-based. These regulated U.K. subsidiaries and their senior managers are registered
with the FCA, and wealth managers and certain other staff are subject to certification requirements. Certain of these
subsidiaries operate in the retail sector, providing investment and financial planning services to high-net-worth individuals,
while others provide brokerage and investment banking services to institutional clients. Retail clients of our U.K. subsidiaries
benefit from the Financial Ombudsman Service, which settles complaints between consumers and business that provide
financial services, as well as the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, which is the U.K.’s statutory deposit insurance and
investors compensation scheme for customers of authorized financial services firms.
In Germany, our subsidiary Raymond James Corporate Finance GmbH is licensed by the German Federal Financial
Supervisory Authority (Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht, or "BaFin") to conduct the regulated activities of
investment advice and investment brokerage. Among other requirements, BaFin requires Raymond James Corporate Finance
16
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
GmbH, as a regulated entity, to comply with certain capital, liquidity, governance, and business conduct requirements, and has
a range of supervisory and disciplinary powers which it is able to use in overseeing the activities of this subsidiary.
Investment management regulation
Our investment advisory operations, including the mutual funds that we sponsor, are also subject to extensive regulation in the
U.S. The majority of our asset managers are registered as investment advisers with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act
of 1940 as amended, and are also required to make notice filings in certain states. Virtually all aspects of our asset management
business are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations. These laws and regulations are primarily intended for the
benefit of our clients.
Anti-money laundering, economic sanctions, and anti-bribery and corruption regulation
The U.S. Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (“PATRIOT Act”), the Customer Due
Diligence Rule, and the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (“AMLA”), contains anti-money laundering and financial
transparency laws and mandates the implementation of various regulations applicable to all financial institutions, including
standards for verifying client identification at account opening, and obligations to monitor client transactions and report
suspicious activities. Through these and other provisions, the BSA, the PATRIOT Act, and AMLA seek to promote the
identification of parties that may be involved in terrorism, money laundering or other suspicious activities. Anti-money
laundering laws outside the U.S. contain some similar provisions.
The U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control administers economic and trade sanctions programs and enforces
sanctions regulations with which all U.S. persons must comply. The E.U. as well as various countries have also adopted
economic sanctions programs targeted at countries, entities and individuals that are involved in terrorism, hostilities,
embezzlement or human rights violations.
In addition, various countries have adopted laws and regulations, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K.
Bribery Act, related to corrupt and illegal payments to, and hiring practices with regard to, government officials and others.
The scope of the types of payments or other benefits covered by these laws is very broad and is subject to significant
uncertainties that may be clarified only in the context of further regulatory guidance or enforcement proceedings.
RJF and its affiliates have implemented and maintain internal policies, procedures, and controls to meet the compliance
obligations imposed by such U.S. and non-U.S. laws and regulations concerning anti-money laundering, economic sanctions,
and anti-bribery and corruption. Failure to continue to meet the requirements of these regulations could result in supervisory
action, including fines.
Privacy and data protection
U.S. federal law establishes minimum federal standards for financial privacy by, among other provisions, requiring financial
institutions to adopt and disclose privacy policies with respect to consumer information and setting forth certain limitations on
disclosure to third parties of consumer information. U.S. state laws and regulations adopted under U.S. federal law impose
obligations on RJF and its subsidiaries for protecting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of client information, and
require notice of data breaches to certain U.S. regulators and to clients. The Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1970, as amended,
mandates the development and implementation of a written identity theft prevention program that is designed to detect, prevent,
and mitigate identity theft.
The California Privacy Rights Act amends the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2020 and is expected to be enforced
beginning in July 2023. New regulations under the statute have not yet been published. The new regulations will update the
existing privacy protections for the personal information of California residents, including by requiring companies to provide
certain additional disclosures to California consumers, and provides for a number of specific additional data subject rights for
California residents.
Similarly, the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) imposes requirements for companies that collect or store personal
data of E.U. residents, as well as residents of the U.K. GDPR’s legal requirements extend to all foreign companies that solicit
and process personal data of E.U. and U.K. residents, imposing a strict data protection compliance regime that includes
consumer rights actions that must be responded to by organizations. Canadian data privacy laws contain many provisions
similar to U.S. financial privacy laws and are currently undergoing legislative reform at a federal and provincial level. In
September 2021, Quebec enacted Bill C-64, a comprehensive privacy law with extraterritorial application modeled after GDPR
and which imposes fines for non-compliance. The law includes staggered implementation dates (running from September 2022
17
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
through September 2024) for various provisions. The firm intends to implement Bill C-64 through its privacy program
framework. We have implemented policies, processes, and training with regard to communicating to our clients and business
partners required information relating to financial privacy and data security. We continue to monitor regulatory developments
on both a domestic and international level to assess requirements and potential impacts on our global business operations.
The multitude of data privacy laws and regulations adds complexity and cost to managing compliance and data management
capabilities and can result in potential litigation, regulatory fines and reputational harm. Data privacy requirements compel
companies to track personal information use and provide greater transparency on data practices to consumers. In addition,
technology advances in the areas of artificial intelligence, mobile applications, and remote connectivity solutions have increased
the collection and processing of personal information as well as the risks associated with unauthorized disclosure and access to
personal information.
Alternative reference rate transition
Central banks and regulators in the U.S. and other jurisdictions are working to implement the transition from the London
Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to replacement interest rate benchmarks. On March 5, 2021, the FCA, which regulates
LIBOR, announced it would cease publication of the less commonly used tenors after December 31, 2021, while it would cease
publication of the most commonly used U.S. dollar LIBOR tenors after June 30, 2023. As a result, U.S. federal banking
agencies issued guidance strongly encouraging institutions to cease entering into contracts that reference LIBOR as soon as
practicable, and no later than December 31, 2021. There have been several pronouncements released during our fiscal year
ended September 30, 2022 that have provided additional guidance related to the transition away from LIBOR and reduced
uncertainty across the industry, including the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) Fallback Protocol, the
Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act, and a proposal released by the Fed.
Consistent with the preceding guidance, as of December 31, 2021, we phased out the use of LIBOR as a reference rate in new
financial instruments and converted our FHLB borrowings and SBL from LIBOR-based interest rates to Secured Overnight
Financing Rate-based interest rates, resulting in an insignificant impact on interest income, interest expense, and cash flows.
We continue to make progress on the transition away from LIBOR, as coordinated by our enterprise-wide team established to
facilitate the transition. We continue to focus on monitoring the impacts of LIBOR across our business operations and
products, ensuring that legacy instruments contain appropriate fallback language, modifying instruments that require
amendments, engaging with financial advisors and clients on the impact of the transition, and working through infrastructure
enhancements (e.g., systems and models) to ensure operational readiness. We continue to evaluate the anticipated effect of the
alternative reference rate transition and, at this time, we expect minimal financial impact.

FACTORS AFFECTING “FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS”
Certain statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K may constitute “forward-looking statements” under the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include information concerning future strategic
objectives, business prospects, anticipated savings, financial results (including expenses, earnings, liquidity, cash flow and
capital expenditures), industry or market conditions, demand for and pricing of our products, acquisitions, divestitures,
anticipated results of litigation, regulatory developments, and general economic conditions. In addition, words such as
“believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” and future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” and
“would,” as well as any other statement that necessarily depends on future events, are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees, and they involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Although
we make such statements based on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable, there can be no assurance that actual results
will not differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. We caution investors not to rely unduly on
any forward-looking statements and urge you to carefully consider the risks described in “Item 1A - Risk Factors” of this
report. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statement in the event it later turns out to be
inaccurate, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Maintaining our reputation is critical to attracting and maintaining clients, investors, and associates. If we fail to address, or
appear to fail to address, issues that may give rise to reputational risk, we could significantly harm our business prospects.
These issues may include, but are not limited to, any of the risks discussed in this Item 1A, including appropriately dealing with
potential conflicts of interest, legal and regulatory requirements, ethical issues, money laundering, cybersecurity and privacy,
record-keeping, sales and trading practices, and associate misconduct. In addition, the failure to either sell securities we have
underwritten at anticipated price levels or to properly identify and communicate the risks inherent in the products and services
we offer could also give rise to reputational risk. Failure to maintain appropriate service and quality standards or a failure or
perceived failure to treat clients fairly can result in client dissatisfaction, litigation and heightened regulatory scrutiny, all of
which can lead to lost revenue, higher operating costs and reputational harm. Negative publicity about us, whether or not true,
may also harm our reputation. Further, failures at other large financial institutions or other market participants, regardless of
whether they relate to our activities, could lead to a general loss of customer confidence in financial institutions that could
negatively affect us, including harming the market perception of the financial system in general.
Any cyber-attack or other security breach of our technology systems, or those of our clients or other third-party
vendors we rely on, could subject us to significant liability and harm our reputation.
Our operations rely heavily on the secure processing, storage and transmission of sensitive and confidential financial, personal
and other information in our computer systems and networks. There have been several highly publicized cases involving
financial services companies reporting the unauthorized disclosure of client or other confidential information in recent years, as
well as cyber-attacks involving the theft, dissemination and destruction of corporate information or other assets, in some cases
as a result of failure to follow procedures by employees or contractors or as a result of actions by third parties. There have also
been several highly publicized cases where hackers have requested “ransom” payments in exchange for not disclosing customer
information or for restoring access to information or systems. Like other financial services firms, we experience malicious
cyber activity directed at our computer systems, software, networks and its users on a daily basis. This malicious activity
includes attempts at unauthorized access, implantation of computer viruses or malware, and denial-of-service attacks. We also
experience large volumes of phishing and other forms of social engineering attempted for the purpose of perpetrating fraud
against the firm, our associates, or our clients. Additionally, like many large enterprises, we have shifted to a more hybrid work
environment which includes a combination of in-office and remote work for our associates. The increase in remote work over
the past few years has introduced potential new vulnerabilities to cyber threats. We may also face increased cybersecurity risk
for a period of time after acquisitions as we transition the acquired entity’s historical controls to our standards. We also face
increased cybersecurity risk as we deploy additional mobile and cloud technologies. We seek to continuously monitor for and
nimbly react to any and all such malicious cyber activity, and we develop our systems to protect our technology infrastructure
and data from misuse, misappropriation or corruption. Senior management of our Information Technology department gives a
quarterly update on cybersecurity to the Audit and Risk Committee of our Board of Directors and an annual update to our full
Board of Directors.
Cyber-attacks can originate from a variety of sources, including third parties affiliated with foreign governments, organized
crime or terrorist organizations. Third parties may also attempt to place individuals within our firm, or induce employees,
clients or other users of our systems, to disclose sensitive information or provide access to our data, and these types of risks
may be difficult to detect or prevent. Although cybersecurity incidents among financial services firms are on the rise, we have
21
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
not experienced any material losses relating to cyber-attacks or other information security breaches. However, the techniques
used in these attacks are increasingly sophisticated, change frequently and are often not recognized until launched. Although
we seek to maintain a robust suite of authentication and layered information security controls, including our cyber threat
analytics, data encryption and tokenization technologies, anti-malware defenses and vulnerability management programs, any
one or combination of these controls could fail to detect, mitigate or remediate these risks in a timely manner. Despite our
implementation of protective measures and endeavoring to modify them as circumstances warrant, our computer systems,
software and networks may be vulnerable to human error, equipment failure, natural disasters, power loss, spam attacks,
unauthorized access, supply chain attacks, distributed denial of service attacks, computer viruses and other malicious code, and
other events that could result in significant liability and damage to our reputation, and have an ongoing impact on the security
and stability of our operations. In addition, although we maintain insurance coverage that may, subject to terms and conditions,
cover certain aspects of cyber and information security risks, such insurance coverage may be insufficient to cover all losses,
such as litigation costs or financial losses that exceed our policy limits or are not covered under any of our current insurance
policies.
We also rely on numerous third-party service providers to conduct other aspects of our business operations, and we face similar
risks relating to them. While we regularly conduct security assessments on these third-party vendors, we cannot be certain that
their information security protocols are sufficient to withstand a cyber-attack or other security breach. We also cannot be
certain that we will receive timely notification of such cyber-attacks or other security breaches. In addition, in order to access
our products and services, our clients may use computers and other devices that are beyond our security control systems.
Notwithstanding the precautions we take, if a cyber-attack or other information security breach were to occur, this could
jeopardize the information we confidentially maintain, or otherwise cause interruptions in our operations or those of our clients
and counterparties, exposing us to liability. As attempted attacks continue to evolve in scope and sophistication, we may be
required to expend substantial additional resources to modify or enhance our protective measures, to investigate and remediate
vulnerabilities or other exposures or to communicate about cyber-attacks to our clients. A technological breakdown could also
interfere with our ability to comply with financial reporting and other regulatory requirements, exposing us to potential
disciplinary action by regulators. Further, successful cyber-attacks at other large financial institutions or other market
participants, whether or not we are affected, could lead to a general loss of confidence in financial institutions that could
negatively affect us, including harming the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures or the financial
system in general, which could result in reduced use of our financial products and services.
Further, in light of the high volume of transactions we process, use of remote work, the large number of our clients, partners
and counterparties, and the increasing sophistication of malicious actors, a cyber-attack could occur. Moreover, any such
cyber-attack may persist for an extended period of time without detection. We expect that any investigation of a cyber-attack
would take substantial amounts of time, and that there may be extensive delays before we obtain full and reliable information.
During such time we would not necessarily know the extent of the harm or how best to remediate it, and certain errors or
actions could be repeated or compounded before they are discovered and remediated, all of which would further increase the
costs and consequences of such an attack.
We may also be subject to liability under various data protection laws. In providing services to clients, we manage, utilize and
store sensitive or confidential client or employee data, including personal data. As a result, we are subject to numerous laws
and regulations designed to protect this information, such as U.S. federal, state and international laws governing the protection
of personally identifiable information. These laws and regulations are increasing in complexity and number. If any person,
including any of our associates, negligently disregards or intentionally breaches our established controls with respect to client or
employee data, or otherwise mismanages or misappropriates such data, we could be subject to significant monetary damages,
regulatory enforcement actions, fines and/or criminal prosecution. In addition, unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or
confidential client or employee data, whether through system failure, employee negligence, fraud or misappropriation, could
damage our reputation and cause us to lose clients and related revenue. Potential liability in the event of a security breach of
client data could be significant. Depending on the circumstances giving rise to the breach, this liability may not be subject to a
contractual limit or an exclusion of consequential or indirect damages.
We are affected by domestic and international macroeconomic conditions that impact the global financial markets.
We are engaged in various financial services businesses. As such, we are affected by domestic and international
macroeconomic and political conditions, as well as economic output levels, interest and inflation rates, employment levels,
prices of commodities, consumer confidence levels and changes in consumer spending, international trade policy, and fiscal and
monetary policy. For example, Fed policies determine, in large part, the cost of funds for lending and investing and the return
earned on those loans and investments. The market impact from such policies can also decrease materially the value of certain
of our financial assets, most notably debt securities, as well as our cash flows, such as those associated with client cash
22
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
balances. Changes in tax law and regulation, or any market uncertainty caused by a change in the political environment, may
negatively affect our business. Macroeconomic conditions may also be negatively impacted by domestic or international
events, including natural disasters, political unrest, or public health epidemics and pandemics, as well as by a number of factors
in the global financial markets that may be detrimental to our operating results.
If we were to experience a period of sustained downturn in the securities markets, credit market dislocations, reductions in the
value of real estate, increases in mortgage and other loan delinquencies, or other negative market factors, our revenues could be
adversely impacted. Market uncertainty could also cause clients to move their investments to lower margin products, or
withdraw them, which could have an adverse impact on our profitability. We could also experience a material reduction in
trading volume and lower asset prices in times of market uncertainty, which would result in lower brokerage revenues,
including losses on firm inventory, as well as losses on certain of our investments. Conversely, periods of severe market
volatility may result in a significantly higher level of transactions and other activity which may cause operational challenges
that may result in losses. These can include, but are not limited to, trade errors, failed transaction settlements, late collateral
calls to borrowers and counterparties, or interruptions to our system processing. Periods of reduced revenue and other losses
could lead to reduced profitability because certain of our expenses, including our interest expense on debt, lease expenses, and
salary expenses, are fixed, and our ability to reduce them over short time periods is limited.
U.S. markets may also be impacted by public health epidemics or pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as by
political and civil unrest occurring in other parts of the world. Our businesses and revenues derived from non-U.S. operations
may also be subject to risk of loss from currency fluctuations, social or political instability, less established regulatory regimes,
changes in governmental or central bank policies, downgrades in the credit ratings of sovereign countries, expropriation,
nationalization, confiscation of assets and unfavorable legislative, economic and political developments.
Lack of liquidity or access to capital could impair our business and financial condition.
Our inability to maintain adequate liquidity or to easily access credit and capital markets could have a significant negative effect
on our financial condition. If liquidity from our brokerage or banking operations is inadequate or unavailable, we may be
required to scale back or curtail our operations, such as limiting our recruiting of financial advisors, limiting lending, selling
assets at unfavorable prices, and cutting or eliminating dividend payments. Our liquidity could be negatively affected by: the
inability of our subsidiaries to generate cash to distribute to the parent company in the form of dividends from earnings;
liquidity or capital requirements applicable to our subsidiaries that may prevent us from distributing cash to the parent
company; limited or no accessibility to credit markets for secured and unsecured borrowings by our subsidiaries; diminished
access to the capital markets for RJF; and other commitments or restrictions on capital as a result of adverse legal settlements,
judgments, or regulatory sanctions. Furthermore, as a bank holding company, we may become subject to prohibitions or
limitations on our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders and/or repurchase our stock. Certain of our regulators have the
authority, and under certain circumstances, the duty, to prohibit or to limit dividend payments by regulated subsidiaries to their
parent company.
The availability of financing, including access to the credit and capital markets, depends on various factors, such as conditions
in the debt and equity markets, the general availability of credit, the volume of securities trading activity, the overall availability
of credit to the financial services sector, and our credit ratings. Our cost of capital and the availability of funding may be
adversely affected by illiquid credit markets and wider credit spreads. Additionally, lenders may from time to time curtail, or
even cease to provide, funding to borrowers as a result of future concerns over the strength of specific counterparties, as well as
the stability of markets generally.
We are exposed to credit risk.
We are generally exposed to the risk that third parties that owe us money, securities or other assets will fail to meet their
obligations to us due to numerous causes, including bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, or operational failure, among others. Credit
risk may also be affected by the deterioration of strength in the U.S. economy or adverse changes in the financial performance
or condition of our clients and counterparties. We actively buy and sell securities from and to clients and counterparties in the
normal course of our broker-dealers’ trading and underwriting activities, which exposes us to credit risk. Although generally
collateralized by the underlying security to the transaction, we still face risk associated with changes in the market value of
collateral through settlement date. We also hold certain securities, loans and derivatives as part of our trading operations.
Deterioration in the actual or perceived credit quality of the underlying issuers of securities or loans or the non-performance of
counterparties to certain derivatives could result in losses.
We borrow securities from, and lend securities to, other broker-dealers and may also enter into agreements to repurchase and/or
resell securities as part of our financing activities. A sharp change in the market values of the securities utilized in these
23
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
transactions may result in losses if counterparties to these transactions fail to honor their commitments. We manage the risk
associated with these transactions by establishing and monitoring credit limits, as well as by evaluating collateral and
transaction levels on a recurring basis. Significant deterioration in the credit quality of one of our counterparties could lead to
widespread concerns about the credit quality of other counterparties in the same industry, thereby exacerbating our credit risk.
In addition, we permit our clients to purchase securities on margin. During periods of steep declines in securities prices, the
value of the collateral securing client margin loans may fall below the amount of the loan. If clients are unable to provide
additional collateral for these margin loans, we may incur losses on those margin transactions. This may cause us to incur
additional expenses defending or pursuing claims or litigation related to counterparty or client defaults.
We deposit our cash in depository institutions as a means of maintaining the liquidity necessary to meet our operating needs,
and we also facilitate the deposit of cash awaiting investment in depository institutions on behalf of our clients. A failure of a
depository institution to return these deposits could severely impact our operating liquidity, result in significant reputational
damage, and adversely impact our financial performance.
We also incur credit risk by lending to businesses and individuals, including through offering SBL, C&I loans, CRE loans,
REIT loans, residential mortgage loans, and tax-exempt loans. We also incur credit risk through certain of our investments.
Our credit risk and credit losses can increase if our loans or investments are concentrated among borrowers or issuers engaged
in the same or similar activities, industries, or geographies, or to borrowers or issuers who as a group may be uniquely or
disproportionately affected by economic or market conditions. Declines in the real estate market or sustained economic
downturns may cause us to experience credit losses or charge-offs related to our loans, sell loans at unattractive prices or
foreclose on certain real estate properties. Furthermore, the deterioration of an individually large exposure, for example due to
natural disasters, health emergencies or pandemics, acts of terrorism, severe weather events or other adverse economic events,
could lead to additional credit loss provisions and/or charges-offs, and subsequently have a material impact on our net income
and regulatory capital. In addition, TriState Capital Bank utilizes information provided by third-party organizations to monitor
changes in the value of marketable securities that serve as collateral for a portion of its SBL. These third parties also provide
control over cash and marketable securities for purposes of perfecting TriState Capital Bank’s security interests and retaining
the collateral in the applicable accounts. In the event that TriState Capital Bank would need to take control of collateral, it is
dependent upon such third parties to follow contractual control agreements in order to mitigate any potential losses on its SBL.
We are exposed to market risk, including interest rate risk.
Market risk generally represents the risk that values of assets and liabilities or revenues will be adversely affected by changes in
market conditions, which directly and indirectly affect us. Market conditions that change from time to time, thereby exposing
us to market risk, include fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices, foreign exchange rates, and price deterioration or changes
in value due to changes in market perception or actual credit quality of an issuer.
Market risk is inherent in financial instruments associated with our operations and activities, including loans, deposits,
securities, short-term borrowings, long-term debt, trading assets and liabilities, derivatives and investments. For example,
interest rate changes could adversely affect the value of our fixed income trading inventories, as well as our net interest spread,
which is the difference between the yield we earn on our interest-earning assets and the interest rate we pay for deposits and
other sources of funding, in turn impacting our net interest income and earnings. Interest rate changes could affect the interest
earned on assets differently than interest paid on liabilities.
A rising interest rate environment generally results in our earning a larger net interest spread and an increase in servicing fees
received on cash swept to third-party program banks as part of the RJBDP. Conversely, in those operations, a falling interest
rate environment generally results in our earning a smaller net interest spread and lower RJBDP fees from third-party program
banks. If we are unable to effectively manage our interest rate risk, changes in interest rates could have a material adverse
effect on our profitability.
Our private equity fund investments are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reflected in earnings. The value of
our private equity portfolio can fluctuate and earnings from our investments can be volatile and difficult to predict. When, and
if, we recognize gains can depend on a number of factors, including general economic conditions, the prospects of the
companies in which the funds invest and whether these companies become subject to a monetization event.
In addition, disruptions in the liquidity or transparency of the financial markets may result in our inability to sell, syndicate or
realize the value of security positions, thereby leading to increased concentrations. The inability to reduce our positions in
specific securities may not only increase the market and credit risks associated with such positions, but also increase the level of
risk-weighted assets on our balance sheet, thereby increasing our capital requirements, which could have an adverse effect on
our business results, financial condition, and liquidity.
24
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Significant volatility in our domestic clients’ cash sweep balances could negatively impact our net revenues and/or our
ability to fund our Bank segment’s growth and may impact our regulatory ratios.
The majority of our Bank segment’s deposits are driven by the RJBDP. The RJBDP is a source of relatively low-cost, stable
deposits and we rely heavily on the RJBDP to fund our Bank segment asset growth, particularly at Raymond James Bank. A
significant reduction in PCG clients’ cash balances, a change in the allocation of that cash between our Bank segment and third-
party banks within the RJBDP, or a movement of cash away from the firm could significantly impact our ability to continue
growing interest-earning assets and/or require our Bank segment to use higher-cost deposit sources to grow interest-earning
assets. Rapidly rising rates, for example, have made and may continue to make investments in securities, such as fixed-income
securities and money market funds, more attractive for investors, thereby reducing the cash they hold.
We also earn fees from third-party banks related to the deposits they receive through their participation in the RJBDP. If PCG
clients’ cash balances continue to decrease or third-party bank demand or capacity for RJBDP deposits decline from current
levels our RJBDP fees from third-party banks could be adversely affected. In addition, our inability to deploy client cash to
third-party banks through RJBDP would require us to retain more cash in our Bank segment or in our Client Interest Program
(“CIP”), both of which may cause a significant increase in our assets. Such an increase in our assets may negatively impact
certain of our regulatory ratios.
Our ability to attract and retain senior professionals, qualified financial advisors and other associates is critical to the
continued success of our business.
Our ability to recruit, serve and retain our clients depends on the reputation, judgment, leadership, business generation
capabilities and client service skills of our client-serving professionals, members of our executive team, as well as employees
who support revenue-generating professionals and their clients. To compete effectively we must attract, develop, and retain
qualified professionals, including successful financial advisors, investment bankers, trading professionals, portfolio managers
and other revenue-producing or specialized support personnel. Competitive pressures we experience could have an adverse
effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.
The labor market continues to experience elevated levels of turnover in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and we have
been impacted by an extremely competitive labor market, including increased competition for talent across all aspects of our
business, as well as increased competition with non-traditional competitors, such as technology companies. Employers are
offering increased compensation and opportunities to work with greater flexibility, including remote work, on a permanent
basis. These can be important factors in a current associate’s decision to leave us as well as in a prospective associate’s
decision to join us. As competition for skilled professionals remains intense, we may have to devote significant resources to
attract and retain qualified personnel, which could negatively impact earnings.
Specifically within the financial industry, employers are increasingly offering guaranteed contracts, upfront payments, and
increased compensation. Our financial results may be adversely affected by the costs we incur in connection with any loans or
other incentives we may offer to newly recruited financial advisors and other key personnel. If we were to lose the services of
any of our financial advisors, investment bankers, senior equity research, sales and trading professionals, asset managers, or
executive officers to a competitor or otherwise, we may not be able to retain valuable relationships and some of our clients
could choose to use the services of a competitor instead of our services. If we are unable to retain our senior professionals or
recruit additional professionals, our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected.
To the extent we have compensation targets, we may not be able to retain our associates, which could result in increased
recruiting expense or result in our recruiting additional associates at compensation levels that are not within our target range.
Further, new business initiatives and efforts to expand existing businesses generally require that we incur compensation and
benefits expense before generating additional revenues.
Moreover, companies in our industry whose employees accept positions with competitors frequently claim that those
competitors have engaged in unfair hiring practices. We have been subject to several such claims and may be subject to
additional claims in the future as we seek to hire qualified personnel, some of whom may work for our competitors. Some of
these claims may result in material litigation. We could incur substantial costs in defending against these claims, regardless of
their merits. Such claims could also discourage potential associates who work for our competitors from joining us. We
participate, with limited exceptions, in the Protocol for Broker Recruiting (“Protocol”), a voluntary agreement among many
firms in the industry that governs, among other things, the client information that financial advisors may take with them when
they affiliate with a new firm. The ability to bring such customer data to a new broker-dealer generally means that the clients of
the financial advisor are more likely to choose to open accounts at the advisor’s new firm. Participation is voluntary and it is
possible that certain of our competitors will withdraw from the Protocol. If the broker-dealers from whom we recruit new
25
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
financial advisors prevent, or significantly limit, the transfer of client data, our recruiting efforts may be adversely affected and
we could continue to experience claims against us relating to our recruiting efforts.
Our business depends on fees generated from the distribution of financial products, fees earned from the management
of client accounts, and other asset management fees.
A large portion of our revenues are derived from fees generated from the distribution of financial products, such as mutual
funds and variable annuities, and the various services we perform related to such products. Changes in the structure or amount
of the fees paid by the sponsors of these products could directly affect our revenues, business and financial condition. In
addition, if these products experience losses or increased investor redemptions, we may receive lower fees from the distribution
and other services we provide on behalf of the mutual fund and annuity companies.
The asset management fees we are paid are dependent upon the value of client assets in fee-based accounts in our PCG
segment, as well as AUM in our Asset Management segment. The value of our fee-based assets and AUM is impacted by
market fluctuations and inflows or outflows of assets. As our PCG clients increasingly show a preference for fee-based
accounts over transaction-based accounts, a larger portion of our client assets are more directly impacted by market movements.
Therefore, in periods of declining market values, the values of fee-based accounts and AUM may resultantly decline, which
would negatively impact our revenues. In addition, below-market investment performance by our funds, portfolio managers or
financial advisors could result in reputational damage that might cause outflows or make it more difficult to attract new
investors into our asset management products and thus, further impact our business and financial condition.
Our asset management fees may also decline over time due to factors such as increased competition and the renegotiation of
contracts. Additionally, most of our clients may withdraw funds from under our management at their discretion at any time for
any reason, including as a result of competition or poor performance of our products. In addition, the market environment in
recent years has resulted in a shift to passive investment products, which generate lower fees than actively managed products.
A continued trend toward passive investments or changes in market values or in the fee structure of asset management accounts
would negatively affect our revenues, business and financial condition.
Our underwriting, market-making, trading, and other business activities place our capital at risk.
We may incur losses and be subject to reputational harm to the extent that, for any reason, we are unable to sell securities we
have underwritten at anticipated price levels. As an underwriter, we also are subject to heightened standards regarding liability
for material misstatements or omissions in prospectuses and other offering documents relating to offerings in which we are
involved. From time to time as part of our underwriting processes, we may carry significant positions in securities of a single
issuer or issuers engaged in a specific industry. Sudden changes in the value of these positions, despite our risk mitigation
policies, could impact our financial results.
As a market maker, we take ownership of positions in specific securities, and these undiversified holdings concentrate the risk
of market fluctuations and may result in greater losses than would be the case if our holdings were more diversified. Despite
risk mitigation policies, we may incur losses as a result of positions we hold in connection with these activities.
We have made and, to the limited extent permitted by applicable regulations, may continue to make principal investments in
private equity funds and other illiquid investments. We may be unable to realize our investment objectives if we cannot sell or
otherwise dispose of our interests at attractive prices or complete a desirable exit strategy. In particular, these risks could arise
from changes in the financial condition or prospects of the portfolio companies in which investments are made, changes in
economic conditions or changes in laws, regulations, fiscal policies or political conditions. It could take a substantial period of
time to identify attractive investment opportunities and then to realize the cash value of such investments.
A continued interruption to our telecommunications or data processing systems, or the failure to effectively update the
technology we utilize, could be materially adverse to our business.
Our businesses rely extensively on data processing and communications systems. In addition to better serving clients, the
effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables us to reduce costs. Adapting or developing our technology systems
to meet new regulatory requirements, client needs, and competitive demands is critical for our business. Introduction of new
technology presents challenges on a regular basis. There are significant technical and financial costs and risks in the
development of new or enhanced applications, including the risk that we might be unable to effectively use new technologies or
adapt our applications to emerging industry standards.
26
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Our continued success depends, in part, upon our ability to: (i) successfully maintain and upgrade the capability of our
technology systems on a regular basis; (ii) maintain the quality of the information contained in our data processing and
communications systems; (iii) address the needs of our clients by using technology to provide products and services that satisfy
their demands; and (iv) retain skilled information technology employees. Failure of our technology systems, which could result
from events beyond our control, including a systems malfunction or cyber-attack, failure by a third-party service provider, or an
inability to effectively upgrade those systems or implement new technology-driven products or services, could result in
financial losses, liability to clients, violations of applicable privacy and other applicable laws and regulatory sanctions.
The soundness of other financial institutions and intermediaries affects us.
We face the risk of operational failure, termination or capacity constraints of any of the clearing agents, exchanges, clearing
houses or other financial intermediaries that we use to facilitate our securities and derivative transactions. As a result of
regulatory changes and the consolidation over the years among clearing agents, exchanges and clearing houses, our exposure to
certain financial intermediaries has increased and could affect our ability to find adequate and cost-effective alternatives should
the need arise. Any failure, termination or constraint of these intermediaries could adversely affect our ability to execute
transactions, service our clients and manage our exposure to risk.
Our ability to engage in routine trading and funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial
soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are interdependent as a result of trading, clearing,
funding, counterparty or other relationships. We have exposure to many different industries and counterparties, and we
routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial industry, including brokers and dealers, commercial banks,
investment banks, mutual and hedge funds and other institutional clients. Defaults by, or even rumors or questions about the
financial condition of, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial services industry generally, have historically
led to market-wide liquidity problems and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. Many of these
transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparty or client. In addition, our credit risk may be
exacerbated when the collateral held by us cannot be realized or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount
of the loan or derivative exposure due us. Losses arising in connection with counterparty defaults may have a material adverse
effect on our results of operations.
Our risk management and conflicts of interest policies and procedures may leave us exposed to unidentified or
unanticipated risk.
We seek to manage, monitor and control our market, credit, operational, liquidity and legal and regulatory compliance risk
through operational and compliance reporting systems, internal controls, management review processes and other mechanisms;
however, there can be no assurance that our procedures will be effective. While we use limits and other risk mitigation
techniques, those techniques and the judgments that accompany their application cannot always anticipate unforeseen economic
and financial outcomes or the specifics and timing of such outcomes. Our risk management methods may not predict future
risk exposures effectively. In addition, some of our risk management methods are based on an evaluation of information
regarding markets, clients and other matters that are based on assumptions that may no longer be accurate or may have limited
predictive value. A failure to manage our growth adequately, including growth in the products or services we offer, or to
manage our risk effectively, could materially and adversely affect our business and financial condition.
Financial services firms are subject to numerous actual or perceived conflicts of interest, which are routinely examined by
regulators and SROs, such as FINRA, and are often used as the basis for claims for legal liability by plaintiffs in actions against
us. Our risk management processes include addressing potential conflicts of interest that arise in our business. Management of
potential conflicts of interest has become increasingly complex as we expand our business activities. A perceived or actual
failure to address conflicts of interest adequately could affect our reputation, the willingness of clients to transact business with
us or give rise to litigation or regulatory actions. Therefore, there can be no assurance that conflicts of interest will not arise in
the future that could result in material harm to our business and financial condition.
We face intense competition and pricing pressures and may not be able to keep pace with technological change.
We are engaged in intensely competitive businesses. We compete on the basis of a number of factors, including the quality of
our associates, our products and services, pricing (such as execution pricing and fee levels), technology solutions, and location
and reputation in relevant markets. Over time, there has been substantial consolidation and convergence among companies in
the financial services industry, which has significantly increased the capital base and geographic reach of our competitors. See
“Item 1 - Business - Competition” of this Form 10-K for additional information about our competitors.
27
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
We compete directly with other national full service broker-dealers, investment banking firms, commercial banks, and
investment advisors, investment managers, and to a lesser extent, with discount brokers and dealers. We face competition from
more recent entrants into the market, including fintechs, and increased use of alternative sales channels by other firms.
Technology has lowered barriers to entry and made it possible for fintechs to compete with larger financial institutions in
providing electronic, internet-based, and mobile phone-based financial solutions. This competition has grown significantly
over recent years and is expected to intensify. In addition, commercial firms and other non-traditional competitors have applied
for banking licenses or have entered into partnerships with banks to provide banking services. We also compete indirectly for
investment assets with insurance companies, real estate firms and hedge funds, among others. Competition from other financial
services firms to attract clients or trading volume, through direct-to-investor online financial services, or higher deposit rates to
attract client cash balances, could result in pricing pressure or otherwise adversely impact our business and cause our business
to suffer.
Our future success also depends in part on our ability to develop, maintain, and enhance our products and services, including
factors such as customer experience, and the pricing and range of our offerings. The financial services industry is continually
undergoing rapid technological change with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. If we are
not able to develop new products and services, enhance existing offerings, effectively implement new technology-driven
products and services, or successfully market these products and services to our customers, our business, financial condition or
results of operations may be adversely affected. Furthermore, both financial institutions and their non-banking competitors face
the risk that payments processing and other services could be significantly disrupted by technologies, such as cryptocurrencies,
that require no intermediation. New technologies have required, and could require us in the future, to spend more to modify or
adapt our products to attract and retain clients or to match products and services offered by our competitors, including
technology companies.
We must monitor the pricing of our services and financial products in relation to competitors and periodically may need to
adjust our fees, commissions, margins, or interest rates on deposits to remain competitive. In fixed income markets, regulatory
requirements have resulted in greater price transparency, leading to price competition and decreased trading margins. Our
trading margins have been further compressed by the shift from high- to low-touch services over time, which has created
additional competitive pressure. We believe that price competition and pricing pressures in these and other areas will continue
as institutional investors continue to reduce the amounts they are willing to pay, including by reducing the number of brokerage
firms they use, and some of our competitors seek to obtain market share by reducing fees, commissions, or margins.
A downgrade in our credit ratings could have a material adverse effect on our operations, earnings and financial
condition.
If our credit ratings were downgraded, or if rating agencies indicate that a downgrade may occur, our business, financial
position, and results of operations could be adversely affected, perceptions of our financial strength could be damaged, and as a
result, adversely affect our client relationships. Such a change in our credit ratings could also adversely affect our liquidity and
competitive position, increase our borrowing costs, limit our access to the capital markets, trigger obligations under certain
financial agreements, or decrease the number of investors, clients and counterparties willing or permitted to do business with or
lend to us, thereby curtailing our business operations and reducing profitability.
We may not be able to obtain additional outside financing to fund our operations on favorable terms, or at all. The impact of a
credit rating downgrade to a level below investment grade would result in our breaching provisions in certain of our derivative
instruments, and may result in a request for immediate payment and/or ongoing overnight collateralization on our derivative
instruments in liability positions. A credit rating downgrade would also result in the firm incurring a higher facility fee on its
$500 million unsecured revolving credit facility agreement (the “Credit Facility”), in addition to triggering a higher interest rate
applicable to any borrowings outstanding on the line as of and subsequent to such downgrade (see “Item 7 - Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and capital resources” of this Form 10-K
and Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for information on the Credit Facility).
Business growth, including through acquisitions, could increase costs and regulatory and integration risks.
We continue to grow, including through acquisitions and through our recruiting efforts. Integrating acquired businesses,
providing a platform for new businesses and partnering with other firms involve risks and present financial, managerial and
operational challenges. While cultural fit is a requirement for both our recruiting and acquisition efforts, there can be no
assurance that recruited talent and/or acquisition targets will ultimately assimilate into our firm in a manner which results in the
expected financial benefits. We may incur significant expense, including in the areas of technology and cybersecurity, in
connection with expanding our existing businesses, recruiting financial advisors or making strategic acquisitions or
28
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
investments. Our overall profitability would be negatively affected if investments and expenses associated with such growth
are not matched or exceeded by the earnings derived from such investments or growth. Assumptions which underlie the basis
of our acquisition decisions, such as the retention of key personnel, future revenue growth of an acquired business, cost
efficiencies to be realized, or the value created through the application of specialized expertise we plan to bring to the acquired
business, may not be fully realized post-acquisition, resulting in an adverse impact on the value of our investment and potential
dilution of the value of our shares.
We may be unable to integrate an acquired business into our existing business successfully, or such integration may be
materially delayed or become more costly or difficult than expected. Further, either company’s clients, suppliers, employees or
other business partners may react negatively to the transaction. Such developments could have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Expansion may also create a need for additional compliance, risk management and internal control procedures, and often
involves hiring additional personnel to address these procedures. To the extent such procedures are not adequate or not adhered
to with respect to our expanded business or any new business, we could be exposed to a material loss or regulatory sanction.
Moreover, to the extent we pursue acquisitions, or enter into acquisition commitments, a number of factors may prevent us from
completing such acquisitions on acceptable terms. For example, regulators such as the Fed could fail to approve a proposed
transaction or such approvals could result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or
the expected benefits of the transaction. The shareholders of a publicly-traded target company could fail to approve the
transaction. Closing conditions in the transaction agreement could fail to be satisfied, or there could be an unexpected delay in
closing. Other developments that may affect future results of an acquired company may occur, including changes in asset
quality and credit risk, changes in interest rates and capital markets, inflation, and/or changes in customer borrowing,
repayment, investment and deposit practices. Finally, an event, change, or other circumstance could occur that gives rise to the
termination of the transaction agreement.
In addition, we may need to raise capital or borrow funds in order to finance an acquisition, which could result in dilution or
increased leverage. We may not be able to obtain such financing on favorable terms or perhaps at all. Further, we may issue
our shares as a component of some or all of the purchase consideration for an acquisition, which may result in dilution.
Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into merger
agreements. Even if such lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims could result in substantial costs and divert
management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact
on our liquidity and financial condition.
Associate misconduct, which is difficult to detect and deter, could harm us by impairing our ability to attract and retain
clients and subject us to significant legal liability and reputational harm.
There is a risk that our associates could engage in misconduct that adversely affects our business. For example, our investment
banking business often requires that we deal with confidential matters of great significance to our clients. Our associates
interact with clients, customers and counterparties on an ongoing basis. All associates are expected to exhibit the behaviors and
ethics that are reflected in our framework of principles, policies and technology to protect both our own information as well as
that of our clients. If our associates improperly use or disclose confidential information provided by our clients, we could be
subject to future regulatory sanctions and suffer serious harm to our reputation, financial position, current client relationships
and ability to attract future clients. We are also subject to a number of obligations and standards arising from our asset
management business and our authority over our assets under management. In addition, our financial advisors may act in a
fiduciary capacity, providing financial planning, investment advice and discretionary asset management. The violation of these
obligations and standards by any of our associates would adversely affect our clients and us. Associate conduct on non-
business matters, such as social issues, could be inconsistent with our policies and ethics and result in reputational harm to our
business as a result of their employment by us or affiliation with us. It is not always possible to deter or prevent every instance
of associate misconduct, and the precautions we take to detect and prevent this activity may not be effective in all cases. If our
associates engage in misconduct, our business would be adversely affected.
We are exposed to litigation and regulatory investigations and proceedings, which could materially and adversely
impact our business operations and prospects.
The financial services industry faces significant litigation and regulatory risks. Many aspects of our business involve
substantial risk of liability. We have been named as a defendant or co-defendant in lawsuits and arbitrations primarily
involving claims for damages. The risks associated with potential litigation often may be difficult to assess or quantify and the
29
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
existence and magnitude of potential claims often remain unknown for substantial periods of time. Unauthorized or illegal acts
of our associates could also result in substantial liability. In addition, our business activities include providing custody,
clearing, and back office support for certain non-affiliated, independent RIAs and broker-dealers. Even though these
independent firms are exclusively responsible for their operations, supervision, compliance, and the suitability of their client’s
investment decisions, we have been, and may in the future be, named as defendants in litigation involving their clients. We are
also the subject of inquiries, investigations, and proceedings by regulatory and other governmental agencies.
In challenging market conditions, the volume of claims and amount of damages sought in litigation and regulatory proceedings
against financial institutions have historically increased. Litigation risks include potential liability under securities laws or other
laws for: alleged materially false or misleading statements made in connection with securities offerings and other transactions;
issues related to our investment recommendations, including the suitability of such recommendations or potential concentration
of investments; the inability to sell or redeem securities in a timely manner during adverse market conditions; contractual
issues; employment claims; and potential liability for other advice we provide to participants in strategic transactions.
Substantial legal liability could have a material adverse financial impact or cause us significant reputational harm, which in turn
could seriously harm our business and future business prospects. In addition to the foregoing financial costs and risks
associated with potential liability, the costs of defending individual litigation and claims continue to increase over time. The
amount of attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the defense of litigation and claims could be substantial and might
materially and adversely affect our results of operations. See “Item 3 - Legal Proceedings” and Note 19 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for further information about legal matters.
We are subject to risks relating to environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) matters that could adversely affect
our reputation, business, financial condition, and results of operations, as well as the price of our common and preferred
stock.
We are subject to a variety of risks, including reputational risk, associated with ESG issues. The public holds diverse and often
conflicting views on ESG topics. As a large financial institution, we have multiple stakeholders, including our shareholders,
clients, associates, federal and state regulatory authorities, and the communities in which we operate, and these stakeholders
will often have differing priorities and expectations regarding ESG issues. If we take action in conflict with one or another of
those stakeholders’ expectations, we could experience an increase in client complaints, a loss of business, or reputational harm.
We could also face negative publicity or reputational harm based on the identity of those with whom we choose to do business.
Any adverse publicity in connection with ESG issues could damage our reputation, ability to attract and retain clients and
associates, compete effectively, and grow our business.
In addition, proxy advisory firms and certain institutional investors who manage investments in public companies are
increasingly integrating ESG factors into their investment analysis. The consideration of ESG factors in making investment and
voting decisions is relatively new. Accordingly, the frameworks and methods for assessing ESG policies are not fully
developed, vary considerably among the investment community, and will likely continue to evolve over time. Moreover, the
subjective nature of methods used by various stakeholders to assess a company with respect to ESG criteria could result in
erroneous perceptions or a misrepresentation of our actual ESG policies and practices. Organizations that provide ratings
information to investors on ESG matters may also assign unfavorable ratings to RJF. Certain of our clients might also require
that we implement additional ESG procedures or standards in order to continue to do business with them. If we fail to comply
with specific ESG-related investor or client expectations and standards, or to provide the disclosure relating to ESG issues that
any third parties may believe is necessary or appropriate (regardless of whether there is a legal requirement to do so), our
reputation, business, financial condition, and/or results of operations, as well as the price of our common and preferred stock
could be negatively impacted.
Moreover, there has been increased regulatory focus on ESG-related practices of investment managers. A growing interest on
the part of investors and regulators in ESG factors, and increased demand for, and scrutiny of, ESG-related disclosures by asset
managers, has likewise increased the risk that we could be perceived as, or accused of, making inaccurate or misleading
statements regarding the investment strategies of our funds and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), or our and our funds’ and
ETFs’ ESG efforts or initiatives, commonly referred to as “greenwashing.” Such perceptions or accusations could damage our
reputation, result in litigation or regulatory enforcement actions, and adversely affect our business.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates that may vary from actual results.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions may require management to make difficult,
30
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. One of our most critical estimates is our
allowance for credit losses. At any given point in time, conditions in real estate and credit markets may increase the complexity
and uncertainty involved in estimating the losses inherent in our loan portfolio. The recorded amount of liabilities related to
legal and regulatory matters is also subject to significant management judgement. For either of these estimates, if
management’s underlying assumptions and judgments prove to be inaccurate, our loss provisions could be insufficient to cover
actual losses, and our financial condition, including our liquidity and capital, and results of operations could be materially and
adversely impacted.
For further discussion of our significant accounting estimates, policies and standards, see “Item 7 - Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical accounting estimates” of this Form 10-K and Note 2 of
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K.
Our operations could be adversely affected by serious weather conditions.
Certain of our principal operations are located in St. Petersburg, Florida. While we have a business continuity plan that
provides for significant operations to be conducted out of remote locations, as well as our Southfield, Michigan and Memphis,
Tennessee corporate offices and our U.S. information systems processing to be conducted out of our information technology
data center in the Denver, Colorado area, our operations could be adversely affected by hurricanes or other serious weather
conditions, including extreme weather events caused by climate change, that could affect the processing of transactions,
communications, and the ability of our associates to get to our offices, or work remotely. In addition, our operations are
dependent on our associates’ ability to relocate to a secondary location in the event of a power outage or other disruption in
their primary remote work location. Additionally, such weather events may also have a negative impact on the financial
condition of our clients, which may decrease revenues from those clients and increase the credit risk associated with loans and
other credit exposures to those clients.
We are exposed to risks related to our insurance programs.
Our operations and financial results are subject to risks and uncertainties related to our use of a combination of insurance, self-
insured retention and self-insurance for a number of risks. To a large extent, we have elected to self-insure our errors and
omissions liability and our employee-related health care benefit plans. We have self-insured retention risk related to several
exposures, including our property and casualty, workers compensation and general liability benefit plans.
While we endeavor to purchase insurance coverage appropriate to our risk assessment, we are unable to predict with certainty
the frequency, nature or magnitude of claims for direct or consequential damages. Our business may be negatively affected if
our insurance proves to be inadequate or unavailable. In addition, claims associated with risks we have retained either through
our self-insurance retention or by self-insuring may exceed our recorded liabilities which could negatively impact future
earnings. Insurance claims may divert management resources away from operating our business.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT
Financial services firms are highly regulated and are currently subject to a number of new and proposed regulations, all
of which may increase our risk of financial liability and reputational harm resulting from adverse regulatory actions.
Financial services firms, such as us, operate in an evolving regulatory environment and are subject to extensive supervision and
regulation. The laws and regulations governing financial services firms are intended primarily for the protection of our
depositors, our customers, the financial system, and the FDIC insurance fund, not our shareholders or creditors. The financial
services industry has experienced an extended period of significant change in laws and regulations, as well as a high degree of
scrutiny from various regulators, including the SEC, the Fed, the FDIC, the OCC and the CFPB, in addition to stock exchanges,
FINRA, and governmental authorities such as state attorneys general. Currently, the SEC has proposed or adopted a number of
new rules after significantly abbreviated periods for public comments, and these new or proposed rules involve sweeping
changes that could require significant shifts in industry operations and practices, thereby increasing uncertainty for markets and
investors. Penalties and fines imposed by regulatory and other governmental authorities have also been substantial and growing
in recent years. We may be adversely affected by the adoption of new rules and by changes in the interpretation or enforcement
of existing laws, rules and regulations. Existing and new laws and regulations could negatively affect our revenue, limit our
ability to pursue business opportunities, impact the value of our assets, require us to alter our business practices, impose
additional compliance costs, and otherwise adversely affect our businesses.
Additionally, our international business operations are subject to laws, regulations, and standards in the countries in which we
operate. In many cases, our activities have been and may continue to be subject to overlapping and divergent regulation in
31
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
different jurisdictions. As our international operations continue to grow, we may need to comply with additional laws, rules,
and regulations which could require us to alter our business practices and/or result in additional compliance costs. Any
violations of these laws, regulations or standards could subject us to a range of potential regulatory events or outcomes that
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects including potential adverse impacts on
continued operations in the relevant international jurisdiction.
We are also required to comply with the Volcker Rule’s provisions. Although we have not historically engaged in significant
levels of proprietary trading, or private fund investment or sponsorship, we continue to incur costs to ensure compliance with
the Volcker Rule. Any changes to regulations or changes to the supervisory approach may also result in increased compliance
costs to the extent we are required to modify our existing compliance policies, procedures and practices.
Broker-dealers and investment advisors are subject to regulations covering all aspects of the securities business, including, but
not limited to: sales and trading methods; trade practices among broker-dealers; use and safekeeping of clients’ funds and
securities; capital structure of securities firms; anti-money laundering efforts; recordkeeping; and the conduct of directors,
officers and employees. Any violation of these laws or regulations could subject us to the following events, any of which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, reputation, and prospects: civil and criminal liability for us
or our employees or affiliated financial advisors; sanctions, which could include the revocation of our subsidiaries’ registrations
as investment advisors or broker-dealers; the revocation of the licenses of our financial advisors; censures; fines; conditions or
limitations on our business activities, including higher capital requirements; or a temporary suspension or permanent bar from
conducting business. The firm is currently cooperating with the SEC in connection with an investigation of the firm’s
investment advisory business’ compliance with records preservation requirements relating to business communications sent
over electronic messaging channels that have not been approved by the firm. The SEC is reportedly conducting similar
investigations of record preservation practices at other financial institutions.
The majority of our affiliated financial advisors are independent contractors. Legislative or regulatory action that redefines the
criteria for determining whether a person is an employee or an independent contractor could materially impact our relationships
with our advisors and our business, resulting in an adverse effect on our results of operations.
Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank are subject to the CRA, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Housing
Act and other U.S. federal fair lending laws and regulations that impose nondiscriminatory lending requirements on financial
institutions. The U.S. Department of Justice and other federal agencies, including the CFPB, are responsible for enforcing these
laws and regulations. An unfavorable CRA rating or a successful challenge to an institution’s performance under the fair
lending laws and regulations could result in a wide variety of sanctions, including the required payment of damages and civil
monetary penalties, injunctive relief, and the imposition of restrictions on mergers, acquisitions and expansion activity. Private
parties may also have the ability to challenge a financial institution’s performance under fair lending laws by bringing private
class action litigation.
As discussed in “Item 1 - Business - Regulation” of this Form 10-K, on May 5, 2022, federal banking regulators requested
comment on a joint notice of proposed rulemaking on the CRA. These developments create uncertainty in planning our CRA
activities. Any revisions to the CRA regulations may negatively impact our business, including through increased costs related
to compliance.
The Federal Reserve requires a bank holding company to act as a source of financial and managerial strength for its subsidiary
banks. The Federal Reserve could require RJF to commit resources to Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank when
doing so is not otherwise in the interests of RJF or its shareholders or creditors.
Regulatory actions brought against us may result in judgments, settlements, fines, penalties or other results, any of which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, reputation, or results of operations. In particular, the
banking agencies have broad enforcement power over bank holding companies and banks, including with respect to unsafe or
unsound practices or violations of law. There is no assurance that regulators will be satisfied with the policies and procedures
implemented by RJF and its subsidiaries. In addition, from time to time, RJF and its subsidiaries may become subject to
additional findings with respect to supervisory, compliance or other regulatory deficiencies, which could subject us to
additional liability, including penalties and restrictions on our business activities. Among other things, these restrictions could
limit our ability to make investments, complete acquisitions, expand into new business lines, pay dividends on our common and
preferred stock and/or engage in share repurchases. Changes to the regulatory landscape governing the fees the firm earns on
client assets, including cash sweep balances, could negatively impact our earnings. See “Item 1 - Business - Regulation” of this
Form 10-K for additional information regarding our regulatory environment.
32
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Continued asset growth may result in changes to our status with respect to existing regulations as well as increased
oversight, which will result in additional capital and other financial requirements and may increase our compliance
costs.
We will incur increased regulatory scrutiny (and related compliance costs) as we continue to grow and surpass certain
consolidated asset thresholds, which have the effect of imposing enhanced standards and requirements on larger financial
institutions. These include the potential application of enhanced prudential standards to us if our average total consolidated
assets for four consecutive calendar quarters exceed $100 billion and we are therefore classified as a category IV bank holding
company. Under such enhanced prudential standards, category IV bank holding companies are subject to greater regulation and
supervision, including, but not limited to: certain capital planning and stress capital buffer requirements; supervisory capital
stress testing conducted by the Fed biennially; and certain liquidity risk management and liquidity stress testing and buffer
requirements. The application of enhanced prudential standards to RJF could adversely affect our results of operations and
financial performance through additional capital and liquidity requirements and increased compliance costs.
Changes in requirements relating to the standard of conduct for broker-dealers applicable under federal and state law
have increased, and may continue to increase, our costs.
The SEC’s Regulation Best Interest requires, among other things, a broker-dealer to act in the best interest of a retail client
when making a recommendation to that client of any securities transaction or investment strategy involving securities. The
regulation imposes heightened standards on broker-dealers, and we have incurred substantial costs in order to review and
modify our policies and procedures, including associated supervisory and compliance controls. We anticipate that we will
continue to incur costs in the future to comply with the standard.
In addition to the SEC, various states have adopted, or are considering adopting, laws and regulations seeking to impose new
standards of conduct on broker-dealers that, as written, differ from the SEC’s new regulations and may lead to additional
implementation costs. Implementation of the new SEC regulations, as well as any new state rules that are adopted addressing
similar matters, has resulted in (and may continue to result in) increased costs related to compliance, legal, operations and
information technology.
The DOL has also reinstated the historical “five-part test” for determining who is an investment advice “fiduciary” when
dealing with certain retirement plans and accounts and promulgated a new exemption that enables investment advice fiduciaries
to receive transaction-based compensation and engage in certain otherwise prohibited transactions, subject to compliance with
the exemption’s requirements. In addition, the DOL is expected to amend the five-part test by the end of 2023 so that the
fiduciary standard would apply to a broader range of client relationships. Imposing such a new standard of care on additional
client relationships could lead to incremental costs for our business.
Numerous regulatory changes and enhanced regulatory and enforcement activity relating to our investment
management activities may increase our compliance and legal costs and otherwise adversely affect our business.
As some of our wholly-owned subsidiaries are registered as investment advisors with the SEC, increased regulatory scrutiny
and rulemaking initiatives may result in additional operational and compliance costs or the assessment of significant fines or
penalties against our asset management business, and may otherwise limit our ability to engage in certain activities. While it is
not possible to determine the extent of the long-term impact of any new laws or regulations that have been promulgated, or
initiatives that have been or may be proposed, even the short-term impact of preparing for or implementing changes to our
infrastructure and processes could negatively impact the ways we conduct business and increase our compliance and legal costs.
Conformance with any new law or regulations could also make compliance more difficult and expensive and affect our product
and service offerings. The SEC’s new Marketing Rule will affect the marketing of our advisory products, including referrals
and solicitations, and may impact our asset management business and result in increased costs.
New regulations regarding the management of hedge funds and the use of certain investment products, including additional
recordkeeping and disclosure requirements, may also impact our asset management business and result in increased costs.
Failure to comply with regulatory capital requirements primarily applicable to RJF, Raymond James Bank, TriState
Capital Bank or our broker-dealer subsidiaries would significantly harm our business.
As discussed in “Item 1 - Business - Regulation” of this Form 10-K, RJF, Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank are
subject to capital requirements administered by various federal regulators in the U.S. and, accordingly, must meet specific
capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of RJF’s, Raymond James Bank’s, and TriState Capital Bank’s assets,
liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items, as calculated under regulatory guidelines. Failure to meet minimum capital
33
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
requirements can trigger certain mandatory (and potentially discretionary) actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could harm
either RJF’s, Raymond James Bank’s, or TriState Capital Bank’s operations and financial condition. Further, we are subject to
the SEC’s Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1) and FINRA’s net capital rule, which may limit our ability to make
withdrawals of capital from our broker-dealer subsidiaries. RJ Ltd. is subject to similar limitations under applicable regulations
in Canada by IIROC. Regulatory capital requirements applicable to some of our significant subsidiaries may impede access to
funds that RJF may need to make payments on any of its obligations. See Note 24 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements of this Form 10-K for further information on regulatory capital requirements.
The Basel III regulatory capital standards impose capital and other requirements on us that could negatively impact our
profitability.
The Fed and other federal banking regulators have implemented the global regulatory capital requirements of Basel III and
certain requirements implemented by the Dodd-Frank Act. The U.S. Basel III Rules establish the quantity and quality of
regulatory capital, set forth a capital conservation buffer and define the calculation of risk-weighted assets. The capital
requirements stipulated under the U.S. Basel III Rules could restrict our ability to grow during favorable market conditions or
require us to raise additional capital. Revisions to the Basel III Rules, including in connection with the implementation of the
standards released by the Basel Committee in December 2017 could, when implemented in the United States, negatively impact
our regulatory capital ratio calculations or subject us to higher and more stringent capital and other regulatory requirements. As
a result, our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects could be adversely affected. See “Item 1 -
Business - Regulation” of this Form 10-K for further information on the Basel III regulatory capital standards.
As a financial holding company, RJF’s liquidity depends on payments from its subsidiaries, which may be subject to
regulatory restrictions.
RJF as a financial holding company depends on dividends, distributions and other payments from its subsidiaries in order to
meet its obligations, including its debt service obligations and to fund dividend payments and share repurchases. RJF’s
subsidiaries are subject to laws and regulations that restrict dividend payments or authorize regulatory bodies to prevent or
reduce the flow of funds from those subsidiaries to RJF. If RJF’s subsidiaries are unable to make dividend payments to us and
sufficient cash or liquidity is not otherwise available, RJF may not be able to make dividend payments to its shareholders,
repurchase its shares, or make principal and interest payments on its outstanding debt. RJF’s broker-dealers and bank
subsidiaries are limited in their ability to lend or transact with affiliates, are subject to minimum regulatory capital and other
requirements, and, in the case of our broker-dealer subsidiaries, limitations on their ability to use funds deposited with them in
brokerage accounts to fund their businesses. These requirements and limitations may hinder RJF’s ability to access funds from
its subsidiaries. Federal regulators, including the Fed and the SEC (through FINRA), have the authority and under certain
circumstances, the obligation, to limit or prohibit dividend payments and stock repurchases by the banking organizations they
supervise, including RJF and its bank subsidiaries. In addition, RJF’s right to participate in a distribution of assets upon a
subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization is subject to the prior claims of creditors of that subsidiary, except to the extent that
any of RJF’s claims as a creditor of such subsidiary may be recognized. As a result, shares of RJF’s capital stock are
effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities and obligations of its subsidiaries.
RISKS RELATED TO AN INVESTMENT IN OUR PREFERRED AND COMMON STOCK
The rights of holders of our common stock are generally subordinate to the rights of holders of our outstanding, and any
future issuances of, debt securities and preferred stock.
Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue debt securities as well as an aggregate of up to 10 million shares of preferred
stock on the terms it determines appropriate without shareholder approval. In connection with our acquisition of TriState
Capital on June 1, 2022, we issued 40,250 shares of 6.75% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual
Preferred Stock, par value $0.10 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”), in the form of 1.61 million depositary shares, each
representing a 1/40th interest in a share of Series A Preferred Stock, and 80,500 shares of 6.375% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Series
B Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.10 per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”) in the form of 3.22 million
depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of Series B Preferred Stock. Such preferred stock is senior to
our common stock. Any debt or shares of preferred stock that we may issue in the future will also be senior to our common
stock. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities or incur other borrowings in the future will depend on market
conditions and other factors beyond our control, the amount, timing, nature or success of our future capital raising efforts is
uncertain. Thus, holders of our common stock bear the risk that our future issuances of debt or equity securities or our
incurrence of other borrowings may negatively affect the market price of our common stock.
34
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
The depositary shares representing our preferred stock are thinly traded and have limited voting rights.
The depositary shares representing interests in our preferred stock are listed on the NYSE, but an active, liquid trading market
for such securities may not be sustained. A public trading market having depth, liquidity and orderliness depends upon the
presence in the marketplace and independent decisions of willing buyers and sellers of our preferred stock, over which we have
no control. Without an active, liquid trading market, holders of our depositary shares may not be able to sell their shares at the
volume, prices, or times desired. In addition, holders of our preferred stock (and, accordingly, holders of the depositary shares
representing such stock), will have no voting rights with respect to matters that generally require the approval of our voting
common shareholders. Holders of preferred stock have voting rights that are generally limited to, with respect to the particular
series of preferred stock held: (i) authorizing, creating or issuing any capital stock ranking senior to such preferred stock as to
dividends or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, and (ii) amending, altering or repealing any provision of our Articles of
Incorporation so as to adversely affect the powers, preferences or special rights of such series of preferred stock.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
We operate our business from our principal location in St. Petersburg, Florida in 1.25 million square feet of office space that we
own in the Carillon Office Park. We conduct certain operations from our owned facility in Southfield, Michigan, comprising
approximately 90,000 square feet, and operate a 40,000 square foot information technology data center on land we own in the
Denver, Colorado area. Our owned locations and principal leases, identified below, support more than one of our business
segments.
We lease the premises we occupy in other U.S. and foreign locations, including employee-based branch office operations.
Leases for branch offices for independent contractors are the responsibility of the respective independent contractor financial
advisors and are not included in the amounts listed below. Our leases contain various expiration dates through fiscal year 2036.
Our principal leases are in the following locations:
• We occupy leased space of approximately 250,000 square feet in Memphis, along with approximately 185,000 square feet
in New York City, 70,000 square feet in Pittsburgh, 70,000 square feet in Chicago, and 30,000 square feet in Denver, with
other office and branch locations throughout the U.S.;
• We occupy leased space of approximately 80,000 and 85,000 square feet in Vancouver and Toronto, respectively, along
with other office and branch locations throughout Canada;
• We occupy leased space of approximately 75,000 square feet in London, along with other office locations in Germany.
Additionally, we own approximately 65 acres of land located in Pasco County, Florida for potential development, as needed.
We regularly monitor the facilities we own or occupy to ensure that they suit our needs, particularly as we introduce more
flexibility in work location for our associates. To the extent that they do not meet our needs, we will expand, contract or
relocate, as necessary. See Note 2 and Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for
information regarding our lease obligations.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the normal course of our business, we have been named, from time to time, as a defendant in various legal actions, including
arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, arising in connection with our activities as a diversified financial services
institution.
RJF and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to regular reviews and inspections by regulatory authorities and self-regulatory
organizations. Reviews can result in the imposition of sanctions for regulatory violations, ranging from non-monetary censures
to fines and, in serious cases, temporary or permanent suspension from conducting business, or limitations on certain business
activities. In addition, regulatory agencies and SROs institute investigations from time to time, among other things, into
industry practices, which can also result in the imposition of such sanctions.
We may contest liability and/or the amount of damages, as appropriate, in each pending matter. The level of litigation and
investigatory activity (both formal and informal) by government and self-regulatory agencies in the financial services industry
35
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
continues to be significant. There can be no assurance that material losses will not be incurred from claims that have not yet
been asserted or are not yet determined to be material.
For many legal and regulatory matters, we are unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss as we cannot predict if,
how or when such proceedings or investigations will be resolved or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if
any, may be. A large number of factors may contribute to this inherent unpredictability: the proceeding is in its early stages; the
damages sought are unspecified, unsupported or uncertain; it is unclear whether a case brought as a class action will be allowed
to proceed on that basis; the other party is seeking relief other than or in addition to compensatory damages (including, in the
case of regulatory and governmental proceedings, potential fines and penalties); the matters present significant legal
uncertainties; we have not engaged in settlement discussions; discovery is not complete; there are significant facts in dispute;
and numerous parties are named as defendants (including where it is uncertain how liability might be shared among
defendants). Subject to the foregoing, after consultation with counsel, we believe that the outcome of such litigation and
regulatory proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition. However, the outcome
of such litigation and regulatory proceedings could be material to our operating results and cash flows for a particular future
period, depending on, among other things, our revenues or income for such period.
See Note 19 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for additional information regarding legal and
regulatory matter contingencies, and refer to “Item 7 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations - Critical accounting estimates” in the section “Loss provisions for legal and regulatory matters” and Note
2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for information on our criteria for establishing accruals.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
INTRODUCTION
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is
intended to help the reader understand the results of our operations and financial condition. This MD&A is provided as a
supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to
consolidated financial statements. Where “NM” is used in various percentage change computations, the computed percentage
change has been determined to be not meaningful.
We operate as a financial holding company and bank holding company. Results in the businesses in which we operate are
highly correlated to general economic conditions and, more specifically, to the direction of the U.S. equity and fixed income
markets, changes in interest rates, market volatility, corporate and mortgage lending markets and commercial and residential
credit trends. Overall market conditions, economic, political and regulatory trends, and industry competition are among the
factors which could affect us and which are unpredictable and beyond our control. These factors affect the financial decisions
made by market participants, including investors, borrowers, and competitors, impacting their level of participation in the
financial markets. These factors also impact the level of investment banking activity and asset valuations, which ultimately
affect our business results.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
Year ended September 30, 2022 compared with the year ended September 30, 2021
For the year ended September 30, 2022, we generated net revenues of $11.00 billion and pre-tax income of $2.02 billion, both
13% higher compared with the prior year. Our net income available to common shareholders of $1.51 billion was 7% higher
than the prior year and our earnings per diluted share of $6.98 reflected a 5% increase. Our return on common equity
(“ROCE”) was 17.0%, compared with 18.4% for the prior year.
In fiscal 2022, we completed the acquisitions of Charles Stanley Group PLC (“Charles Stanley”), TriState Capital, and
SumRidge Partners, which resulted in incremental revenues and expenses during the year. During the year we also incurred
acquisition-related expenses, such as compensation largely related to retention awards, initial provisions for credit losses on
acquired loans and unfunded lending commitments, amortization of identifiable intangible assets, and other costs incurred to
effect our acquisitions, such as legal expenses and other professional fees. These expenses totaled $147 million this fiscal year,
an increase of $65 million over the prior year. Excluding these acquisition-related expenses, our adjusted net income available
to common shareholders was $1.62 billion(1), an increase of 5% compared with the prior year, and our adjusted earnings per
diluted share were $7.49(1), an increase of 3%. Adjusted ROCE for the year was 18.2%(1), compared with 20.0%(1) in the prior
year, and adjusted return on tangible common equity (“ROTCE”) was 21.1%(1), compared with 22.2%(1) in the prior year.
The increase in net revenues compared with the prior year was driven by the impact of higher PCG client assets in fee-based
accounts for most of the current fiscal year, which positively impacted our asset management and related administrative fees,
the benefit of higher short-term interest rates on both net interest income and RJBDP fees from third-party banks, and
incremental revenues from our acquisitions of TriState Capital, Charles Stanley, and SumRidge Partners. Brokerage revenues
and investment banking revenues each declined compared with a strong prior year, primarily as a result of market uncertainty
during the current year.
Compensation, commissions and benefits expense increased 11%, primarily attributable to the growth in revenues and pre-tax
income compared with the prior year, as well as the aforementioned acquisitions. Our compensation ratio was 66.6%,
compared with 67.5% for the prior year. Excluding acquisition-related compensation expenses, our adjusted compensation
ratio was 66.1%(1), compared with 67.0%(1) for the prior year. The decline in the compensation ratio primarily resulted from
changes in our revenue mix due to higher net interest income and RJBDP fees from third-party banks, which have little
associated direct compensation.
(1) Adjusted net income available to common shareholders, adjusted earnings per diluted share, adjusted ROCE, adjusted ROTCE, and adjusted compensation ratio are non-GAAP
financial measures. In fiscal 2022, certain non-GAAP financial measures were adjusted for additional expenses directly related to our acquisitions that we believe are not
indicative of our core operating results, such as those related to amortization of identifiable intangible assets arising from acquisitions and acquisition-related retention. Prior
periods have been conformed to the current presentation. Please see the “Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures” in this MD&A for a
reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and for other important disclosures.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Non-compensation expenses increased 19%, due to incremental expenses from the aforementioned acquisitions, as well as
increases in the bank loan provision for credit losses, business development expenses and communications and information
processing expenses. The bank loan provision for credit losses increased $132 million to a provision of $100 million in the
current year, compared with a benefit of $32 million for the prior year; however, $26 million of this increase related solely to
the initial provision recorded on loans acquired as part of the TriState Capital acquisition. Partially offsetting these increases,
we incurred $98 million of losses on extinguishment of debt from the early-redemption of certain of our senior notes during the
prior year, which did not recur in the current year.
Our effective income tax rate was 25.4% for fiscal 2022, an increase from 21.7% for the prior year. The increase in the
effective tax rate from the prior year was primarily due to the negative impact of nondeductible valuation losses associated with
our company-owned life insurance portfolio during the current year compared with nontaxable valuation gains for the prior
year.
As of September 30, 2022, our tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.3% and total capital ratio of 20.4% were both well above the
regulatory requirement to be considered well-capitalized. We also continued to have substantial liquidity with $1.91 billion(1) of
cash at the parent company as of September 30, 2022, which includes parent cash loaned to RJ&A. We believe our funding and
capital position provide us the opportunity to continue to grow our balance sheet prudently and we expect to continue to be
opportunistic in deploying our capital. Subsequent to the closing of TriState Capital, for the period June 1, 2022 through
September 30, 2022, we repurchased 1.74 million shares and subsequent to that date repurchased an additional 354 thousand
shares, for a cumulative repurchase through November 17, 2022 of approximately 2.1 million shares of our common stock for
$200 million or approximately $96 per share. After the effect of those repurchases, $800 million remained under our Board of
Directors’ share repurchase authorization. We currently expect to continue to repurchase our common stock in fiscal 2023 to
offset the impact of shares issued with the acquisition of TriState Capital as well as to offset dilution from share-based
compensation; however, we will continue to monitor market conditions and other capital needs as we consider these
repurchases. On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which, among other things, establishes
a 1% excise tax on net repurchases of shares by domestic corporations whose stock is traded on an established securities
market. The excise tax will be imposed on repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022 and will be recorded directly to
equity as part of the repurchase transaction, rather than as a component of our provision for income taxes. The act also
introduces a corporate alternative minimum tax which we do not expect to have an impact on our results of operations or cash
flows in the future.
We believe we remain well-positioned entering fiscal 2023. We expect fiscal 2023 results to be further positively impacted by
a full year’s impact of the combined 300-basis point increase in the Fed’s short-term benchmark interest rate during our fiscal
2022, as well as the 75-basis point increase in November 2022. With clients’ domestic cash sweep balances of $67.1 billion as
of September 30, 2022 and our high concentration of floating-rate assets, we also believe we are well-positioned for any further
increases in short-term interest rates, which we expect to positively impact our net interest income and our RJBDP fees from
third-party banks, although we expect further declines in client cash balances in fiscal 2023 as we expect clients to continue to
shift their cash to higher-yielding investment products. We also expect to continue to face macroeconomic uncertainties which
may continue to have a negative impact on equity and fixed income markets. As a result, we may experience volatility in asset
management fees and brokerage revenues, as well as investment banking revenues, despite our strong investment banking
pipelines. In addition, asset management and related administrative fees will be negatively impacted in our fiscal first quarter
of 2023 by the 3% sequential decrease in PCG fee-based assets as of September 30, 2022 and lower financial assets under
management; however, our recruiting pipelines remain strong and we continue to see solid retention of existing advisors. Net
loan growth should result in additional provisions for credit losses and future economic deterioration could result in increased
bank loan provisions for credit losses in future periods. In addition, although we remain focused on the management of
expenses, we expect that expenses will continue to increase in part as a result of inflationary pressures on our costs, as business
and event-related travel occur throughout the entire fiscal year 2023, and as we continue to make investments in our people and
technology to support our growth.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES TO GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We utilize certain non-GAAP financial measures as additional measures to aid in, and enhance, the understanding of our
financial results and related measures. We believe certain of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to
management and investors by excluding certain material items that may not be indicative of our core operating results. We
utilize these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the financial performance of the business, as they facilitate a
meaningful comparison of current- and prior-period results. In fiscal 2022, certain of our non-GAAP financial measures were
adjusted for additional expenses directly related to our acquisitions that we believe are not indicative of our core operating
results, including acquisition-related retention, amortization of identifiable intangible assets arising from acquisitions, and the
initial provision for credit losses on loans acquired and lending commitments assumed as a result of the TriState Capital
acquisition. Prior periods, where applicable, have been conformed to the current period presentation. We believe that ROTCE
is meaningful to investors as this measure facilitates comparison of our results to the results of other companies. In the
following tables, the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments reflects the statutory rate associated with each non-GAAP item.
These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, measures of financial
performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to
similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of other companies. The following tables provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP
financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the periods indicated.

Total compensation ratio is computed by dividing compensation, commissions and benefits expense by net revenues for each
respective period. Adjusted total compensation ratio is computed by dividing adjusted compensation, commissions and benefits
expense by net revenues for each respective period.
Tangible common equity is computed by subtracting goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, net, along with the associated
deferred tax liabilities, from total common equity attributable to RJF. Average common equity is computed by adding the total
common equity attributable to RJF as of each quarter-end date during the indicated fiscal year to the beginning of the year total,
and dividing by five, or in the case of average tangible common equity, computed by adding tangible common equity as of each
quarter-end date during the indicated fiscal year to the beginning of the year total, and dividing by five. Adjusted average
common equity is computed by adjusting for the impact on average common equity of the non-GAAP adjustments, as
applicable for each respective period. Adjusted average tangible common equity is computed by adjusting for the impact on
average tangible common equity of the non-GAAP adjustments, as applicable for each respective period.
ROCE is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by average common equity for each respective
period or, in the case of ROTCE, computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by average tangible
common equity for each respective period. Adjusted ROCE is computed by dividing adjusted net income available to common
shareholders by adjusted average common equity for each respective period, or in the case of adjusted ROTCE, computed by
dividing adjusted net income available to common shareholders by adjusted average tangible common equity for each
respective period.

NET INTEREST ANALYSIS
Largely in response to inflationary pressures, the Fed has rapidly increased its benchmark short-term interest rates, from the
near-zero interest rates that existed starting in fiscal 2020 and continuing throughout fiscal 2021 through February 2022, to
gradual increases commencing in March 2022, ending at a range of 3.00% to 3.25% as of September 30, 2022. The Fed
indicated that it intends to closely monitor short-term interest rates into our fiscal 2023, and in fact, enacted an additional 75-
basis point increase in November 2022. The following table details the Fed’s short-term interest rate activity since fiscal 2020.

Increases in short-term interest rates positively impacted our net interest income during our fiscal 2022, as well as the fee
income we earn from third-party banks on client cash balances swept to such banks as part of the RJBDP (included in account
and service fees), which are also sensitive to changes in interest rates.
Given the relationship between our interest-sensitive assets and liabilities (primarily held in our PCG, Bank, and Other
segments) and the nature of fees we earn from third-party banks in the RJBDP, increases in short-term interest rates generally
result in an increase in our net earnings, although the magnitude of the impact to our net interest margin depends on the yields
on interest-earning assets relative to the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, including deposit rates paid to clients on their cash
balances. Changes to the regulatory landscape governing the fees the firm earns on client assets, including cash sweep
balances, could negatively impact our earnings. In addition, our pace of loan growth may fluctuate over time in response to
changes in interest rates. As a result of our diverse funding sources, strong loan growth and high concentration of floating-rate
assets, we benefited from the increases in short-term interest rates in fiscal 2022 and believe we are well-positioned for our net
interest earnings and RJBDP fees to continue to be favorably impacted by the fiscal year 2022, as well as any fiscal 2023,
increases in short-term rates. However, we also expect the benefit to our RJBDP fees to be partially offset by a decline in
domestic client sweep balances as a portion of this cash gets invested in higher-yielding investments.
Refer to the discussion of our net interest income within the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Results of Operations”
of our PCG, Bank, and Other segments, where applicable. Also refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Results of
Operations - Private Client Group - Clients’ domestic cash sweep balances” for further information on the RJBDP.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest-
earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in average interest rates. The following table shows the effect
that these factors had on the interest earned on our interest-earning assets and the interest incurred on our interest-bearing
liabilities. The effect of changes in volume is determined by multiplying the change in volume by the previous period’s
average rate. Similarly, the effect of rate changes is calculated by multiplying the change in average rate by the previous
period’s volume. Changes attributable to both volume and rate have been allocated proportionately.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – PRIVATE CLIENT GROUP
Through our PCG segment, we provide financial planning, investment advisory and securities transaction services for which we
generally charge either asset-based fees (presented in “Asset management and related administrative fees”) or sales
commissions (presented in “Brokerage revenues”). We also earn revenues for distribution and related support services
performed primarily related to mutual funds, fixed and variable annuities and insurance products. Asset management and
related administrative fees and brokerage revenues in this segment are typically correlated with the level of PCG client AUA,
including those in fee-based accounts, as well as the overall U.S. equity markets. In periods where equity markets improve,
AUA and client activity generally increase, thereby having a favorable impact on net revenues.
We also earn servicing fees, such as omnibus and education and marketing support fees, from mutual fund and annuity
companies whose products we distribute. Servicing fees earned from mutual fund and annuity companies are based on the level
of assets, a flat fee or number of positions in such programs. Our PCG segment also earns fees from banks to which we sweep
clients’ cash in the RJBDP, including both third-party banks and our Bank segment. Such fees, which generally fluctuate based
on average balances in the program and short-term interest rates, are included in “Account and service fees.” See “Clients’
domestic cash sweep balances” in the “Selected key metrics” section for further information about fees earned from the RJBDP.
Net interest income in the PCG segment is primarily generated by interest earnings on assets segregated for regulatory purposes
and on margin loans provided to clients, less interest paid on client cash balances in the CIP. Amounts are impacted by client
cash balances in the CIP and short-term interest rates. Higher client cash balances generally lead to increased net interest
income, depending on interest rate spreads realized in the CIP (i.e., between interest received on assets segregated for
regulatory purposes and interest paid on CIP balances). For more information on client cash balances, see “Clients’ domestic
cash sweep balances” in the “Selected key metrics” section.
For an overview of our PCG segment operations, refer to the information presented in “Item 1 - Business” of this Form 10-K.

(1) These metrics include the impact from the acquisition of Charles Stanley, which was completed on January 21, 2022.
(2) A portion of our “Assets in fee-based accounts” is invested in “managed programs” overseen by our Asset Management segment, specifically our Asset
Management Services division of RJ&A (“AMS”). These assets are included in our financial assets under management as disclosed in the “Selected key
metrics” section of our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Results of Operations - Asset Management.”
PCG AUA and PCG assets in fee-based accounts each decreased 7% compared with the prior year, as the positive impacts of
strong net inflows of client assets and the Charles Stanley acquisition were more than offset by a decline in market values.
PCG assets in fee-based accounts continued to be a significant percentage of overall PCG AUA due to many clients’ preference
for fee-based alternatives versus transaction-based accounts and, as a result, a significant portion of our PCG revenues is more
directly impacted by market movements.
Fee-based accounts within our PCG segment are comprised of a wide array of products and programs that we offer our clients.
The majority of assets in fee-based accounts within our PCG segment are invested in programs for which our financial advisors
provide investment advisory services, either on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis. Administrative services for such
accounts (e.g., record-keeping) are generally performed by our Asset Management segment and, as a result, a portion of the
related revenue is shared with the Asset Management segment.
We also offer our clients fee-based accounts that are invested in “managed programs” overseen by AMS, which is part of our
Asset Management segment. Fee-billable assets invested in managed programs are included in both “Assets in fee-based
accounts” in the preceding table and “Financial assets under management” in the Asset Management segment. Revenues
related to managed programs are shared by our PCG and Asset Management segments. The Asset Management segment
receives a higher portion of the revenues related to accounts invested in managed programs, as compared to the portion received
for non-managed programs, as it is performing portfolio management services in addition to administrative services.
The vast majority of the revenues we earn from fee-based accounts is recorded in “Asset management and related
administrative fees” on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Fees received from such accounts
are based on the value of client assets in fee-based accounts and vary based on the specific account types in which the client
invests and the level of assets in the client relationship. As fees for the majority of such accounts are billed based on balances
as of the beginning of the quarter, revenues from fee-based accounts may not be immediately affected by changes in asset
values, but rather the impacts are seen in the following quarter. Assets in fee-based accounts in this segment decreased 3% as
of September 30, 2022 compared with June 30, 2022, which we expect will have an unfavorable impact on our related revenues
in our fiscal first quarter of 2023.
PCG AUA included assets associated with firms affiliated with us through our RCS division of $108.5 billion as of
September 30, 2022, $92.7 billion as of September 30, 2021, and $59.7 billion as of September 30, 2020, of which $89.9
billion, $77.2 billion, and $47.4 billion as of September 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively, were fee-based assets. Based
on the nature of the services provided to such firms, revenues related to these assets are included in “Account and services
fees.”

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The number of financial advisors as of September 30, 2022 increased compared to the prior year due to strong recruiting and
retention of existing advisors and the addition of nearly 200 financial advisors with the Charles Stanley acquisition in January
2022, partially offset by the transfer of 222 advisors previously affiliated primarily as independent contractors to our RCS
division (including one firm with 166 financial advisors). We expect to continue to experience transfers of financial advisors to
our RCS division in fiscal 2023; however, consistent with our experience in fiscal 2022, we do not expect these financial
advisor transfers to significantly impact our results of operations. Advisors in our RCS division are not included in our
financial advisor count metric although their client assets are included in PCG AUA. The recruiting pipeline remains robust
across our affiliation options; however, the timing of financial advisors joining the firm may be impacted by market uncertainty.

A significant portion of our domestic clients’ cash is included in the RJBDP, a multi-bank sweep program in which clients’
cash deposits in their accounts are swept into interest-bearing deposit accounts at either Raymond James Bank or TriState
Capital Bank, which are included in our Bank segment, or various third-party banks. Our PCG segment earns servicing fees for
the administrative services we provide related to our clients’ deposits that are swept to such banks as part of the RJBDP. These
servicing fees are variable in nature and fluctuate based on client cash balances in the program, as well as the level of short-term
interest rates and the interest paid to clients on balances in the RJBDP. Under our current intersegment policies, the PCG
segment receives the greater of a base servicing fee or a net yield equivalent to the average yield that the firm would otherwise
receive from third-party banks in the RJBDP. This is a different intersegment policy than that which was in place in prior
years, during the last interest rate cycle. The result of this change is that the PCG segment revenues will reflect increased fee
revenues as the yield from third-party banks in the program continues to rise and the Bank segment RJBDP servicing costs
reflect the market rate. The fees that the PCG segment earns from the Bank segment, as well as the servicing costs incurred on
the deposits in the Bank segment, are eliminated in the computation of our consolidated results.
The “Average yield on RJBDP - third-party banks” in the preceding table is computed by dividing RJBDP fees from third-party
banks, which are net of the interest expense paid to clients by the third-party banks, by the average daily RJBDP balance at
third-party banks. The average yield on RJBDP - third-party banks increased from the prior year as a result of the combined
300-basis point increase in the Fed’s short-term benchmark interest rate during our fiscal 2022, as compared to the prior year,
which reflected a full year of near-zero short-term interest rates. We expect our fiscal 2023 results will benefit from a full-
year’s impact of the Fed’s short-term rate increases enacted toward the end of fiscal 2022, as well as the rate increase in
November 2022, with our average yield on RJBDP - third-party banks expected to approximate 2.5% for our fiscal first quarter
of 2023.
Although client cash balances remained elevated for the majority of fiscal 2022, cash balances declined at the end of the year,
resulting in only a 1% increase as of September 30, 2022 compared with September 30, 2021. We expect this recent trend to
continue into fiscal 2023, as clients continue to move cash from lower-yielding bank deposits to higher-yielding investment
products. PCG segment results can be impacted not only by changes in the level of client cash balances, but also by the
allocation of client cash balances between RJBDP and our CIP, as the PCG segment may earn different amounts from each of
these client cash destinations, depending on multiple factors.
Year ended September 30, 2022 compared with the year ended September 30, 2021
Net revenues of $7.71 billion increased 17% and pre-tax income of $1.03 billion increased 38%.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Asset management and related administrative fees increased $654 million, or 16%, primarily due to higher assets in fee-based
accounts at the beginning of most of the current-year quarterly billing periods compared with the prior-year quarterly billing
periods and, to a lesser extent, incremental revenues arising from our acquisition of Charles Stanley.
Brokerage revenues decreased $30 million, or 2%, primarily due to lower trailing placement fees from mutual and other fund
products and annuity products, resulting from lower asset values for products for which we receive trails, partially offset by
incremental revenues from our acquisition of Charles Stanley.
Account and service fees increased $383 million, or 46%, primarily due to an increase in RJBDP fees from both third-party
banks and our Bank segment due to the increase in short-term rates during the current year, as well as higher client cash
balances in the RJBDP. Client account and other fees also increased, resulting from incremental revenues from our acquisitions
of NWPS Holdings Inc. at the end of our fiscal first quarter of 2021 and Charles Stanley in our fiscal second quarter of 2022, as
well as higher account maintenance fees resulting from an increase in the fee per account effective during the current fiscal
year. Mutual fund service fees increased due to higher average mutual fund assets.
Net interest income increased $94 million, or 83%, due to both the increase in short-term interest rates and higher average
balances of interest-earning assets such as assets segregated for regulatory purposes, which benefited from higher average CIP
balances during the current year. Although client cash balances remained elevated for the majority of fiscal 2022, cash balances
declined at the end of the year. We expect this recent trend to continue into fiscal 2023, as clients continue to move cash to
higher-yielding investments.
Compensation-related expenses increased $676 million, or 13%, primarily due to higher asset management fee revenues, as
well as incremental expenses resulting from our acquisition of Charles Stanley and an increase in compensation costs to support
our growth.
Non-compensation expenses increased $142 million, or 22%, driven by incremental expenses resulting from our acquisition of
Charles Stanley, increases in travel and event-related expenses compared with the low levels incurred in the prior year, higher
communications and information processing expenses primarily due to ongoing enhancements of our technology platforms, and
increasing real estate rent costs.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – CAPITAL MARKETS
Our Capital Markets segment conducts investment banking, institutional sales, securities trading, equity research, and the
syndication and management of investments in low-income housing funds and funds of a similar nature, the majority of which
qualify for tax credits.
We provide various investment banking services, including merger & acquisition advisory, and other advisory services,
underwriting or advisory services on public and private equity and debt financing for corporate clients, and public financing
activities. Revenues from investment banking activities are driven principally by our role in the transaction and the number and
sizes of the transactions with which we are involved.
We earn brokerage revenues for the sale of both equity and fixed income products to institutional clients, as well as from our
market-making activities in fixed income debt securities. Client activity is influenced by a combination of general market
activity and our Capital Markets group’s ability to find attractive investment opportunities for clients. In certain cases, we
transact on a principal basis, which involves the purchase of securities from, and the sale of securities to, our clients as well as
other dealers who may be purchasing or selling securities for their own account or acting on behalf of their clients. Profits and
losses related to this activity are primarily derived from the spreads between bid and ask prices, as well as market trends for the
individual securities during the period we hold them. To facilitate such transactions, we carry inventories of financial
instruments. In our fixed income businesses, we also enter into interest rate swaps and futures contracts to facilitate client
transactions or to actively manage risk exposures.
For an overview of our Capital Markets segment operations, refer to the information presented in “Item 1 - Business” of this
Form 10-K.

Year ended September 30, 2022 compared with the year ended September 30, 2021
Net revenues of $1.81 billion decreased 4% and pre-tax income of $415 million decreased 22%.
Investment banking revenues decreased $34 million, or 3%, due to a significant decline in both equity and debt underwriting
activity, resulting from the impact of market uncertainty during the current year. Merger & acquisition and advisory revenues
increased, reflecting high levels of client activity, as well as a full year of revenues related to our fiscal 2021 acquisitions of
Financo and Cebile. Our investment banking pipeline remains strong, reflecting the investments we have made over the past
several years, however, continued market uncertainty could delay, or ultimately prevent, the closing of transactions, which
could negatively impact our results in fiscal 2023.
Brokerage revenues decreased $70 million, or 11%, due to a significant decrease in fixed income brokerage revenues, which
remained solid but were lower than the prior year as a result of a challenging and uncertain interest rate environment compared
with the prior year, partially offset by incremental revenues from SumRidge Partners, which was acquired on July 1, 2022. We
expect fixed income brokerage revenues to continue to be negatively impacted by market uncertainty and a decline in cash
balances at our depository institution clients during fiscal 2023; however, we expect some amount of offsetting benefit to our
results from a full year of revenues from SumRidge Partners.
Affordable housing investment business revenues increased $22 million, or 21%, primarily reflecting continued strong business
activity levels as well as gains on the sales of certain properties during the current year.
Compensation-related expenses increased $10 million, or 1%, due to higher share-based compensation amortization and
salaries, primarily due to our acquisition of SumRidge Partners and a full year of our prior year acquisitions of Financo and
Cebile, inflationary and market compensation pressures, and to support our growth, partially offset by a decrease resulting from
lower compensable revenues.
52
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Non-compensation expenses increased $31 million, or 10%, primarily due to increased travel and event-related expenses, as
well as an increase in expenses associated with our acquisition of SumRidge Partners and to support our growth, partially offset
by lower investment banking deal expenses due to lower underwriting revenues compared with the prior year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – ASSET MANAGEMENT
Our Asset Management segment earns asset management and related administrative fees for providing asset management,
portfolio management and related administrative services to retail and institutional clients. This segment oversees the portion
of our fee-based AUA invested in “managed programs” for our PCG clients through AMS and through RJ Trust. This segment
also provides asset management services through Raymond James Investment Management for certain retail accounts managed
on behalf of third-party institutions, institutional accounts, and proprietary mutual funds that we manage, generally utilizing
active portfolio management strategies. Asset management fees are based on fee-billable assets under management, which are
impacted by market fluctuations and net inflows or outflows of assets. Rising equity markets have historically had a positive
impact on revenues as existing accounts increase in value. Conversely, declining markets typically have a negative impact on
revenue levels.
Our Asset Management segment also earns administrative fees on certain fee-based assets within PCG that are not overseen by
our Asset Management segment, but for which the segment provides administrative support (e.g., record-keeping). These
administrative fees are based on asset balances, which are impacted by market fluctuations and net inflows or outflows of
assets. For an overview of our Asset Management segment operations, refer to the information presented in “Item 1 - Business”
of this Form 10-K.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Selected key metrics
Managed programs
Management fees recorded in our Asset Management segment are generally calculated as a percentage of the value of our fee-
billable AUM. These AUM include the portion of fee-based AUA in our PCG segment that is invested in programs overseen
by our Asset Management segment (included in the “AMS” line of the following table), as well as retail accounts managed on
behalf of third-party institutions, institutional accounts and proprietary mutual funds that we manage (collectively included in
the “Raymond James Investment Management” line of the following table).
Revenues related to fee-based AUA in our PCG segment are shared by the PCG and Asset Management segments, the amount
of which depends on whether or not clients are invested in assets that are in managed programs overseen by our Asset
Management segment and the administrative services provided (see our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Results of
Operations - Private Client Group” for more information). Our AUM in AMS are impacted by market fluctuations and net
inflows or outflows of assets, including transfers between fee-based accounts and transaction-based accounts within our PCG
segment.
Revenues earned by Raymond James Investment Management for retail accounts managed on behalf of third-party institutions,
institutional accounts and our proprietary mutual funds are recorded entirely in the Asset Management segment. Our AUM in
Raymond James Investment Management are impacted by market and investment performance and net inflows or outflows of
assets, including the impact of acquisitions.
Fees for our managed programs are generally collected quarterly. Approximately 65% of these fees are based on balances as of
the beginning of the quarter (primarily in AMS), approximately 15% are based on balances as of the end of the quarter, and
approximately 20% are based on average daily balances throughout the quarter.

Net revenues of $914 million increased 5% and pre-tax income of $386 million decreased 1%.
Asset management and related administrative fees increased $45 million, or 5%, driven by higher financial assets under
management and higher assets in non-discretionary asset-based programs at the beginning of most of our current-year quarterly
billing periods compared with the prior-year quarterly billing periods. We expect the declines in financial assets under
management and assets in non-discretionary asset-based programs during our fiscal fourth quarter of 2022, which occurred due
to the decline in market values, to negatively affect our fiscal first quarter of 2023 revenues, as the majority of our asset
management and related administrative fees are billed based on balances as of the beginning of the quarter.
Compensation expenses increased $12 million, or 7%, due to an increase in salaries due to labor market pressures and to
support our growth, as well as incremental compensation expenses related to Chartwell. Non-compensation expenses increased
$38 million, or 13%, largely due to higher investment sub-advisory fees, resulting from higher assets under management in sub-
advised programs for most of the current fiscal year, as well as incremental expenses due to the acquisition of Chartwell.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – BANK
The Bank segment provides various types of loans, including SBL, corporate loans, residential mortgage loans, and tax-exempt
loans. Our Bank segment is active in corporate loan syndications and participations and lending directly to clients. We also
provide FDIC-insured deposit accounts, including to clients of our broker-dealer subsidiaries, as well as other deposit and
liquidity management products and services. Our Bank segment generates net interest income principally through the interest
income earned on loans and an investment portfolio of available-for-sale securities, which is offset by the interest expense it
pays on client deposits and on its borrowings. Our Bank segment’s net interest income is affected by the levels of interest rates,
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Higher interest-earning asset balances and higher interest rates generally
lead to increased net interest income, depending upon spreads realized on interest-bearing liabilities. For more information on
average interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability balances and the related interest income and expense, see the
following discussion in this MD&A. For an overview of our Bank segment operations, refer to the information presented in
“Item 1 - Business” of this Form 10-K. Our Bank segment results include the results of TriState Capital Bank since the
acquisition date of June 1, 2022. See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for
information regarding this acquisition.

Year ended September 30, 2022 compared with the year ended September 30, 2021
Net revenues of $1.08 billion increased 61% and pre-tax income of $382 million increased 4%.
Net interest income increased $411 million, or 64%, due to the increase in short-term interest rates, higher average interest-
earning assets, as well as incremental net interest income from the acquisition of TriState Capital Bank on June 1, 2022. The
increase in average interest-earning assets was primarily driven by significant growth in SBL and residential mortgage loans, as
well as higher average corporate loans and available-for-sale securities. The Bank segment net interest margin increased to
2.39% from 1.95% for the prior year. As part of our acquisition of TriState Capital, we recorded fair value adjustments of $145
million related to loans and $118 million related to available-for-sale securities, which will generally accrete into net interest
income over 4 years and 7 years, respectively, exclusive of the impact of prepayments. We anticipate the Bank segment’s net
interest income in our fiscal 2023 will benefit from a full year’s impact of TriState Capital Bank’s results and the Fed’s short-
term interest rate increases enacted toward the end of fiscal 2022 and in November 2022, and expect the Bank segment net
interest margin to approximate 3.15% for the fiscal first quarter of 2023. In addition, given that a significant portion of our
interest-earning assets are sensitive to changes in short-term interest rates, we expect our net interest income to also be
favorably impacted by any additional increases in short-term interest rates that may occur.
The bank loan provision for credit losses was $100 million for the current year, compared with a benefit for credit losses of $32
million for the prior year. The current-year provision included the impacts of loan growth at Raymond James Bank and a
weaker macroeconomic outlook, as well as an initial provision for credit losses of $26 million recorded on loans acquired as
part of the TriState Capital acquisition. The prior year benefit largely reflected improved economic forecasts used in our
56
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model at that time, as well as improved credit ratings within our corporate loan
portfolio, partially offset by the impact of loan growth. We expect to continue to grow our bank loan portfolio. Net loan
growth should result in additional provisions for credit losses and future economic deterioration could result in elevated bank
loan provisions for credit losses in future periods.
Compensation expenses increased $33 million, or 65%, primarily reflecting incremental compensation expenses of TriState
Capital Bank.
Non-compensation expenses, excluding the bank loan provision/(benefit) for credit losses, increased $232 million, or 81%,
primarily due to an increase in RJBDP and other fees paid to PCG, incremental expenses associated with TriState Capital Bank
(including a $5 million initial provision for credit losses on TriState Capital Bank’s unfunded lending commitments and
amortization of intangible assets), and a provision for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments unrelated to the
acquisition compared with a benefit for the prior year. RJBDP fees to PCG increased $174 million, or 95%, due to an increase
in short-term interest rates as well as an increase in client cash swept to Raymond James Bank as part of the RJBDP. As
described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Results of Operations - Private Client Group”, our Bank segment pays
servicing fees to our PCG segment for the administrative services provided related to our clients’ deposits that are swept to our
Bank segment as part of the RJBDP. These servicing fees are variable in nature and fluctuate based on client cash balances in
the program, as well as the level of short-term interest rates and the interest paid to clients on balances in the RJBDP. As the
yield from third-party banks in the program continues to rise, the RJBDP servicing costs paid by our Bank segment to our PCG
segment will also increase to reflect the market rate. These fees to PCG are eliminated in the computation of our consolidated
results.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Net revenues decreased $42 million, primarily due to lower private equity gains compared with the prior year. Private equity
gains in fiscal 2022 totaled $9 million, of which an insignificant amount was attributable to noncontrolling interests. The prior
year included $74 million of private equity valuation gains, of which $25 million were attributable to noncontrolling interests
and were offset within other expenses. Offsetting the negative impact of the lower private equity gains, interest income
increased compared with the prior year, largely due to the increase in short-term interest rates, and interest expense decreased
due to lower interest expense on senior notes payable compared with the prior year, as a result of refinancing such notes at a
lower interest rate.
Non-interest expenses decreased $97 million, or 41%, primarily due to losses on extinguishment of debt in the prior year related
to the early-redemption our $250 million of 5.625% senior notes due 2024 and our $500 million of 3.625% senior notes due
2026, as well as the aforementioned decrease in amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests. These decreases were partially
offset by an increase in professional fees associated with acquisition activities, primarily associated with our current-year
acquisitions of Charles Stanley, TriState Capital, and SumRidge Partners, as well as higher executive compensation expenses
due to the increase in earnings.
Year ended September 30, 2021 compared to the year ended September 30, 2020
Refer to “Item 7 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our 2021 Form
10-K for a discussion of our fiscal 2021 results compared to fiscal 2020.
STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION ANALYSIS
The assets on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition consisted primarily of cash and cash equivalents, assets
segregated for regulatory purposes and restricted cash (primarily segregated for the benefit of clients), receivables including
bank loans, financial instruments held either for trading purposes or as investments, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets,
and other assets. A significant portion of our assets were liquid in nature, providing us with flexibility in financing our
business.
Total assets of $80.95 billion as of September 30, 2022 were $19.06 billion, or 31%, greater than our total assets as of
September 30, 2021. Our acquisition of TriState Capital during fiscal year 2022 brought significant amounts of assets and
liabilities onto our balance sheet, including, as of September 30, 2022, $12.13 billion of bank loans, net, $1.55 billion of
available-for-sale securities, and $721 million in goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, net. Bank loans, net also increased
due to $6.12 billion in loan growth unrelated to the acquisition of TriState Capital, consisting of increases in corporate,
residential, and securities-based loans. The acquisition of Charles Stanley during fiscal year 2022 contributed, as of
September 30, 2022, $2.14 billion in assets segregated for regulatory purposes, as well as $201 million in goodwill and
identifiable intangible assets, net. Our acquisition of SumRidge Partners contributed, as of September 30, 2022, $715 million in
trading assets, $277 million in other receivables, net, and $152 million in goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, net.
Deferred tax assets, net increased $325 million as a result of the decline in fair value of our available-for-sale securities
portfolio primarily due to market conditions. Offsetting these increases were decreases in assets segregated for regulatory
purposes and restricted cash, primarily due to a shift in client cash balances from our CIP, which is held at RJ&A and impacts
our segregated assets, to our Bank segment through the RJBDP. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1.02 billion primarily
due to acquisition, dividend, and share repurchase activities. See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of
this Form 10-K for additional information on our acquisitions.
As of September 30, 2022, our total liabilities of $71.52 billion were $17.93 billion, or 33%, greater than our total liabilities as
of September 30, 2021. The increase in total liabilities was primarily due to an increase in bank deposits of $18.86 billion,
which includes $13.17 billion as a result of our acquisition of TriState Capital, as well as an increase in bank deposits unrelated
to the acquisition of $5.69 billion, largely due to growth in RJBDP cash balances swept to Raymond James Bank. Trading
liabilities increased $660 million, primarily due to our acquisition of SumRidge Partners. Other borrowings increased $433
million, primarily reflecting the additional FHLB borrowings and subordinated note of TriState Capital. Offsetting these
increases was a decrease in brokerage client payables related to the aforementioned shift in client cash balances from our CIP
(included in brokerage client payables) to our Bank segment through the RJBDP (included in bank deposits), partially offset by
an increase in brokerage client payables of $2.30 billion as a result of our acquisition of Charles Stanley.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity and capital are essential to our business. The primary goal of our liquidity management activities is to ensure
adequate funding to conduct our business over a range of economic and market environments. We seek to manage capital
levels to support execution of our business strategy, provide financial strength to our subsidiaries, and maintain sustained access
to the capital markets, while at the same time meeting our regulatory capital requirements and conservative internal
management targets.
Liquidity and capital resources are provided primarily through our business operations and financing activities. Financing
activities could include bank borrowings, collateralized financing arrangements or additional capital raising activities under our
“universal” shelf registration statement. We believe our existing assets, most of which are liquid in nature, together with funds
generated from operations and available from committed and uncommitted financing facilities, provide adequate funds for
continuing operations at current levels of activity in the short-term. We also believe that we will be able to continue to meet our
long-term cash requirements due to our strong financial position and ability to access capital from financial markets.
Liquidity and capital management
Senior management establishes our liquidity and capital management frameworks. Our liquidity and capital management
frameworks are overseen by the RJF Asset and Liability Committee, a senior management committee that develops and
executes strategies and policies to manage our liquidity risk and interest rate risk, as well as provides oversight over the firm’s
investments. The liquidity management framework includes senior management’s review of short- and long-term cash flow
forecasts, review of capital expenditures, monitoring of the availability of alternative sources of financing, and daily monitoring
of liquidity in our significant subsidiaries. Our decisions on the allocation of resources to our business units consider, among
other factors, projected profitability, cash flow, risk, and future liquidity needs. Our treasury department assists in evaluating,
monitoring and controlling the impact that our business activities have on our financial condition and liquidity, and also
maintains our relationships with various lenders. The objective of our liquidity management framework is to support the
successful execution of our business strategies while ensuring ongoing and sufficient liquidity.
Our capital planning and capital risk management processes are governed by the Capital Planning Committee (“CPC”), a senior
management committee that provides oversight on our capital planning and ensures that our strategic planning and risk
management processes are integrated into the capital planning process. The CPC meets at least quarterly to review key metrics
related to the firm’s capital, such as debt structure and capital ratios; to analyze potential and emerging risks to capital; to
oversee our annual firmwide capital stress test; and to propose capital actions to the Board of Directors, such as declaring
dividends, repurchasing securities, and raising capital. To ensure that we have sufficient capital to absorb unanticipated losses,
the firm adheres to capital risk appetite statements and tolerances set in excess of regulatory minimums, which are established
by the CPC and approved by the Board of Directors. We conduct enterprise-wide capital stress testing to ensure that we
maintain adequate capital to adhere to our established tolerances under multiple scenarios, including a stressed scenario.
Capital structure
Common equity (i.e., common stock, additional paid-in capital, and retained earnings) is the primary component of our capital
structure. Common equity allows for the absorption of losses on an ongoing basis and for the conservation of resources during
stress periods, as it provides RJF with discretion on the amount and timing of dividends and other capital actions. Information
about our common equity is included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, the Consolidated Statements of
Changes in Shareholders’ Equity, and Note 20 of this Form 10-K.
Under regulatory capital rules applicable to us as a bank holding company, we are required to maintain minimum leverage
ratios (defined as tier 1 capital divided by adjusted average assets), as well as minimum ratios of tier 1 capital, common equity
tier 1 (“CET1”), and total capital to risk-weighted assets. These capital ratios incorporate quantitative measures of our assets,
liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under the regulatory capital rules and are subject to qualitative
judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors. We calculate these ratios in order to assess
compliance with both regulatory requirements and internal capital policies. In order to maintain our ability to take certain
capital actions, including dividends and common equity repurchases, and to make bonus payments, we must hold a capital
conservation buffer above our minimum risk-based capital requirements. See Note 24 for further information about our
regulatory capital and related capital ratios.

Cash and cash equivalents (excluding amounts segregated for regulatory purposes and restricted cash) decreased $1.02 billion
to $6.18 billion during the year ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to investments in bank loans and available-for-sale
securities. In addition, we completed our acquisitions of Charles Stanley, TriState Capital, and SumRidge Partners for total
cash consideration of $1.17 billion (including a $125 million note issued to TriState Capital prior to the acquisition) during the
year ended September 30, 2022. Offsetting these cash outflows were the impacts of an increase in bank deposits, cash received
from the sale of U.S. Treasury securities (“U.S. Treasuries”) previously segregated for regulatory purposes, as well as positive
net income during the period.

Sources of liquidity
Approximately $1.91 billion of our total September 30, 2022 cash and cash equivalents included cash held at RJF, the parent
company, which included cash loaned to RJ&A. These amounts include the impact of significant dividends from RJ&A during
the year ended September 30, 2022, as well as dividends from other RJF subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2022, RJF had
loaned $1.30 billion to RJ&A (such amount is included in the RJ&A cash balance in the following table), which RJ&A has
invested on behalf of RJF in cash and cash equivalents or otherwise deployed in its normal business activities.

RJF maintained depository accounts at Raymond James Bank with a balance of $260 million as of September 30, 2022. The
portion of this total that was available on demand without restrictions, which amounted to $230 million as of September 30,
2022, is reflected in the RJF cash balance and excluded from Raymond James Bank’s cash balance in the preceding table.
A large portion of the cash and cash equivalents balances at our non-U.S subsidiaries, including RJ Ltd., as of September 30,
2022 was held to meet regulatory requirements and was not available for use by the parent.
In addition to the cash balances described, we have various other potential sources of cash available to the parent company from
subsidiaries, as described in the following section.
Liquidity available from subsidiaries
Liquidity is principally available to RJF from RJ&A and Raymond James Bank.
Certain of our broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the requirements of the Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1) under
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. As a member firm of FINRA, RJ&A is subject to FINRA’s capital requirements,
which are substantially the same as Rule 15c3-1. Rule 15c3-1 provides for an “alternative net capital requirement,” which
RJ&A has elected. Regulations require that minimum net capital, as defined, be equal to the greater of $1.5 million or 2% of
aggregate debit items arising from client balances. In addition, covenants in RJ&A’s committed financing facilities require its
net capital to be a minimum of 10% of aggregate debit items. At September 30, 2022, RJ&A significantly exceeded the
minimum regulatory requirements, the covenants in its financing arrangements pertaining to net capital, as well as its internally-
targeted net capital tolerances, despite significant dividends to RJF during the year ended September 30, 2022. FINRA may
impose certain restrictions, such as restricting withdrawals of equity capital, if a member firm were to fall below a certain
threshold or fail to meet minimum net capital requirements which may result in RJ&A limiting dividends it would otherwise
remit to RJF. We evaluate regulatory requirements, loan covenants and certain internal tolerances when determining the
amount of liquidity available to RJF from RJ&A.
Raymond James Bank may pay dividends to RJF without prior approval of its regulator as long as the dividends do not exceed
the sum of its current calendar year and the previous two calendar years’ retained net income, and it maintains its targeted
regulatory capital ratios. Dividends may be limited to the extent that capital is needed to support balance sheet growth.
Although we have liquidity available to us from our other subsidiaries, the available amounts may not be as significant as those
previously described and, in certain instances, may be subject to regulatory requirements.

Borrowings and financing arrangements
Committed financing arrangements
Our ability to borrow is dependent upon compliance with the conditions in our various loan agreements and, in the case of
secured borrowings, collateral eligibility requirements. Our committed financing arrangements primarily consist of a tri-party
repurchase agreement (i.e., securities sold under agreements to repurchase) and, in the case of our $500 million revolving credit
facility agreement (the “Credit Facility”), an unsecured line of credit. The required market value of the collateral associated
with the tri-party repurchase agreement ranges from 105% to 125% of the amount financed.
The following table presents our most significant committed financing arrangements with third-party lenders, which we
generally utilize to finance a portion of our fixed income trading instruments held by RJ&A, and the outstanding balances
related thereto.

Our committed unsecured financing arrangement in the preceding table represents our Credit Facility, which provides for
maximum borrowings of up to $500 million, with a sublimit of $300 million for RJF. RJ&A may borrow up to $500 million
under the Credit Facility, depending on the amount of outstanding borrowings by RJF. The variable rate facility fee on our
Credit Facility, which is applied to the committed amount, decreased to 0.150% per annum as of September 30, 2022 from
0.175% per annum as of September 30, 2021, as a result of Moody’s Investor Services (“Moody’s”) upgrade of our credit
ratings in February 2022. For additional details on our issuer and senior long-term debt ratings see our credit ratings table
within this section below. For additional details on our committed unsecured financing arrangement, see our discussion of the
Credit Facility in Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K.
Uncommitted financing arrangements
Our uncommitted financing arrangements are in the form of secured lines of credit, secured bilateral or tri-party repurchase
agreements, or unsecured lines of credit. Our arrangements with third-party lenders are generally utilized to finance a portion
of our fixed income securities held by RJ&A or for cash management purposes. Our uncommitted secured financing
arrangements generally require us to post collateral in excess of the amount borrowed and are generally collateralized by
RJ&A-owned securities or by securities that we have received as collateral under reverse repurchase agreements (i.e., securities
purchased under agreements to resell). As of September 30, 2022, we had outstanding borrowings under four uncommitted
secured borrowing arrangements out of a total of 12 uncommitted financing arrangements (eight uncommitted secured and four
uncommitted unsecured). However, lenders are under no contractual obligation to lend to us under uncommitted credit
facilities.
The following table presents our borrowings on uncommitted financing arrangements, which were in the form of repurchase
agreements in RJ&A and were included in “Collateralized financings” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Other borrowings and collateralized financings
We had $1.19 billion in FHLB borrowings outstanding at September 30, 2022, comprised of floating-rate and fixed-rate
advances. We use interest rate swaps to manage the risk of increases in interest rates associated with the majority of these
advances. See Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for additional information
regarding these borrowings. At September 30, 2022, we had pledged $6.58 billion of residential mortgage loans and $1.43
billion of CRE loans with the FHLB as security for the repayment of these borrowings and had an additional $5.22 billion in
immediate credit available based on collateral pledged. As of September 30, 2022, with a pledge of additional collateral, we
would have additional credit available from certain FHLB member banks.
A portion of our fixed income transactions are cleared and executed through a third-party clearing organization, which provides
financing for the purchase of trading instruments to support such transactions. The amount of financing is based on the amount
of trading inventory financed, as well as any deposits held at the clearing organization. Amounts outstanding under this
financing arrangement, which are collateralized by a portion of our trading inventory and accrue interest based on market rates,
are included in “Other payables” in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. While we had borrowings outstanding
as of September 30, 2022, the clearing organization is under no contractual obligation to lend to us under this arrangement.
We are eligible to participate in the Federal Reserve’s discount window program; however, we do not view borrowings from
the Federal Reserve as a primary source of funding. The credit available in this program is subject to periodic review, may be
terminated or reduced at the discretion of the Federal Reserve, and is secured by certain pledged C&I loans.
As part of the acquisition of TriState Capital, we assumed, as of the closing date, TriState Capital’s subordinated notes due
2030, with an aggregate principal amount of $98 million. The subordinated notes incur interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% until
May 2025 and thereafter at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR, or an appropriate alternative reference rate at the time that
LIBOR ceases to be published. We may redeem these subordinated notes beginning in August 2025 at a redemption price
equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption
date. See Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for additional information regarding
these borrowings.
We may act as an intermediary between broker-dealers and other financial institutions whereby we borrow securities from one
broker-dealer and then lend them to another. Where permitted, we have also loaned, to broker-dealers and other financial
institutions, securities owned by clients or the firm. We account for each of these types of transactions as collateralized
agreements and financings, with the outstanding balance of $172 million as of September 30, 2022 related to the securities
loaned included in “Collateralized financings” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition of this Form 10-K. See
Notes 2 and 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for more information on our collateralized
agreements and financings.
Senior notes payable
At September 30, 2022, we had aggregate outstanding senior notes payable of $2.04 billion, which, exclusive of any unaccreted
premiums or discounts and debt issuance costs, was comprised of $500 million par 4.65% senior notes due 2030, $800 million
par 4.95% senior notes due 2046, and $750 million par 3.75% senior notes due 2051. At September 30, 2022, estimated future
contractual interest payments on our senior notes were approximately $2 billion, of which $91 million is payable in fiscal 2023,

Our current credit ratings depend upon a number of factors, including industry dynamics, operating and economic environment,
operating results, operating margins, earnings trends and volatility, balance sheet composition, liquidity and liquidity
management, capital structure, overall risk management, business diversification and market share, and competitive position in
the markets in which we operate. Deterioration in any of these factors could impact our credit ratings. Any rating downgrades
could increase our costs in the event we were to obtain additional financing.
Should our credit rating be downgraded prior to a public debt offering, it is probable that we would have to offer a higher rate
of interest to bond holders. A downgrade to below investment grade may make a public debt offering difficult to execute on
terms we would consider to be favorable. A downgrade below investment grade could result in the termination of certain
derivative contracts and the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate
and ongoing overnight collateralization on our derivative instruments in liability positions. A credit downgrade could damage
our reputation and result in certain counterparties limiting their business with us, result in negative comments by analysts,
potentially negatively impact investors’ and/or clients’ perception of us, and cause a decline in our stock price. None of our
borrowing arrangements contains a condition or event of default related to our credit ratings. However, a credit downgrade
would result in the firm incurring a higher facility fee on the Credit Facility, in addition to triggering a higher interest rate
applicable to any borrowings outstanding on that line as of and subsequent to such downgrade. Conversely, an improvement in
RJF’s current credit rating could have a favorable impact on the facility fee, as well as the interest rate applicable to any
borrowings on such line.
Other sources and uses of liquidity
We have company-owned life insurance policies which are utilized to fund certain non-qualified deferred compensation plans
and other employee benefit plans. Certain of our non-qualified deferred compensation plans and other employee benefit plans
are employee-directed while others are company-directed. Of the company-owned life insurance policies which fund these
plans, certain policies could be used as a source of liquidity for the firm. Those policies against which we could readily borrow
had a cash surrender value of $733 million as of September 30, 2022, comprised of $467 million related to employee-directed
plans and $266 million related to company-directed plans, and we were able to borrow up to 90%, or $660 million, of the
September 30, 2022 total without restriction. To effect any such borrowing, the underlying investments would be converted to
money market investments, therefore requiring us to take market risk related to the employee-directed plans. There were no
borrowings outstanding against any of these policies as of September 30, 2022.
On May 12, 2021, we filed a “universal” shelf registration statement with the SEC pursuant to which we can issue debt, equity
and other capital instruments if and when necessary or perceived by us to be opportune. Subject to certain conditions, this
registration statement will be effective through May 12, 2024.
As part of our ongoing operations, we also enter into contractual arrangements that may require future cash payments, including
certificates of deposit, lease obligations and other contractual arrangements, such as for software and various services. See
Notes 14 and 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for information regarding our lease
obligations and certificates of deposit, respectively. We have entered into investment commitments, lending commitments and
other commitments to extend credit for which we are unable to reasonably predict the timing of future payments. See Note 19
of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for further information.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
REGULATORY
Refer to the discussion of the regulatory environment in which we operate and the impact on our operations of certain rules and
regulations in “Item 1 - Business - Regulation” of this Form 10-K.
RJF and many of its subsidiaries are each subject to various regulatory capital requirements. As of September 30, 2022, all of
our active regulated domestic and international subsidiaries had net capital in excess of minimum requirements. In addition,
RJF, Raymond James Bank, and TriState Capital Bank were categorized as “well-capitalized” as of September 30, 2022. The
maintenance of certain risk-based and other regulatory capital levels could influence various capital allocation decisions
impacting one or more of our businesses. However, due to the current capital position of RJF and its regulated subsidiaries, we
do not anticipate these capital requirements will have a negative impact on our future business activities. See Note 24 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for further information on regulatory capital requirements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require us to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
any reporting period in our consolidated financial statements. Management has established detailed policies and control
procedures intended to ensure the appropriateness of such estimates and assumptions and their consistent application from
period to period. For a description of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements of this Form 10-K.
Due to their nature, estimates involve judgment based upon available information. Actual results or amounts could differ from
estimates and the difference could have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, understanding
these critical accounting estimates is important in understanding our reported results of operations and financial position. We
believe that of our accounting estimates and assumptions, those described in the following sections involve a high degree of
judgment and complexity.
Loss provisions
Loss provisions for legal and regulatory matters
The recorded amount of liabilities related to legal and regulatory matters is subject to significant management judgment. For a
description of the significant estimates and judgments associated with establishing such accruals, see the “Contingent
liabilities” section of Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K. In addition, refer to Note 19
of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for information regarding legal and regulatory matter
contingencies as of September 30, 2022.
Allowance for credit losses
We evaluate certain of our financial assets, including bank loans, to estimate an allowance for credit losses based on expected
credit losses over a financial asset’s lifetime. The remaining life of our financial assets is determined by considering
contractual terms and expected prepayments, among other factors. We use multiple methodologies in estimating an allowance
for credit losses and our approaches differ by type of financial asset and the risk characteristics within each financial asset type.
Our estimates are based on ongoing evaluations of our financial assets, the related credit risk characteristics, and the overall
economic and environmental conditions affecting the financial assets. Our process for determining the allowance for credit
losses includes a complex analysis of several quantitative and qualitative factors requiring significant management judgment
due to matters that are inherently uncertain. This uncertainty can produce volatility in our allowance for credit losses. In
addition, the allowance for credit losses could be insufficient to cover actual losses. In such an event, any losses in excess of
our allowance would result in a decrease in our net income, as well as a decrease in the level of regulatory capital.
We generally estimate the allowance for credit losses on bank loans using credit risk models which incorporate relevant
available information from internal and external sources relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and
supportable economic forecasts. After testing the reasonableness of a variety of economic forecast scenarios, each model is run
using a single forecast scenario selected for each model. Our forecasts incorporate assumptions related to macroeconomic
indicators including, but not limited to, U.S. gross domestic product, equity market indices, unemployment rates, and
commercial real estate and residential home price indices.
65
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
To demonstrate the sensitivity of credit loss estimates on our bank loan portfolio to macroeconomic forecasts, we compared our
modeled estimates under the base case economic scenario used to estimate the allowance for credit losses as of September 30,
2022, to what our estimate would have been under a downside case scenario and an upside scenario, without considering any
offsetting effects in the qualitative component of our allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2022. As of
September 30, 2022, use of the downside case scenario would have resulted in an increase of approximately $135 million in the
quantitative portion of our allowance for credit losses on bank loans, while the use of the upside case would have resulted in a
reduction of approximately $25 million in the quantitative portion of our allowance for credit losses on bank loans at
September 30, 2022. These hypothetical outcomes reflect the relative sensitivity of the modeled portion of our allowance
estimate to macroeconomic forecasted scenarios but do not consider any potential impact qualitative adjustments could have on
the allowance for credit losses in such environments. Qualitative adjustments could either increase or decrease modeled loss
estimates calculated using an alternative economic scenario assumption. Further, such sensitivity calculations do not
necessarily reflect the nature and extent of future changes in the related allowance for a number of reasons including: (1)
management's predictions of future economic trends and relationships among the scenarios may differ from actual events; and
(2) management's application of subjective measures to modeled results through the qualitative portion of the allowance for
credit losses when appropriate. The downside case scenario utilized in this hypothetical sensitivity analysis assumes a moderate
recession. To the extent macroeconomic conditions worsen beyond those assumed in this downside case scenario, we could
incur provisions for credit losses significantly in excess of those estimated in this analysis.
See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for information regarding our allowance for
credit losses related to bank loans as of September 30, 2022.
Business combinations
We generally account for our acquisitions as business combinations under GAAP, using the acquisition method of accounting,
whereby the assets acquired, including separately identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed are recorded at their
acquisition-date estimated fair values. Any excess purchase consideration over the acquisition-date fair values of the net assets
acquired is recorded as goodwill. The acquisition method requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions in
determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Significant judgment is also required in estimating the fair
value of identifiable intangible assets and in assigning the useful lives of the definite-lived identifiable intangible assets, which
impact the periods over which amortization of those assets is recognized. Accordingly, we typically obtain the assistance of
third-party valuation specialists. The fair value estimates are based on available historical information and on future
expectations and assumptions deemed reasonable by management, but are inherently uncertain as they pertain to forward-
looking views of our businesses, client behavior, and market conditions. We consider the income, market and cost approaches
and place reliance on the approach or approaches deemed most appropriate to estimate the fair value of intangible assets.
Significant estimates and assumptions inherent in the valuations reflect a consideration of other marketplace participants and
include the amount and timing of future cash flows (including expected growth rates and profitability) and the discount rate
applied to the cash flows. Unanticipated market or macroeconomic events and circumstances may occur that could affect the
accuracy or validity of the estimates and assumptions.
During the year ended September 30, 2022, our acquisitions of Charles Stanley, TriState Capital, and SumRidge Partners
required us to make estimates and assumptions in determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the
most significant being related to the valuation of bank loans and the core deposit intangible asset in the TriState Capital
acquisition and the customer relationship asset in the Charles Stanley acquisition. In determining the estimated fair value of
bank loans acquired as part of the TriState Capital acquisition, management used a discounted cash flow methodology that
considered loan type and related collateral, credit loss expectations, classification status, market interest rates and other market
factors from the perspective of a market participant. Loans were segregated into specific pools according to similar
characteristics, including risk, interest rate type (i.e., fixed or floating), underlying benchmark rate, and payment type and were
treated in the aggregate when determining the fair value of each pool. The discount rates were derived using a build-up method
inclusive of the weighted average cost of funding, estimated servicing costs and an adjustment for liquidity and then compared
to current origination rates and other relevant market data. The fair value of the core deposit intangible asset was estimated
using a discounted cash flow approach, specifically the favorable source of funds method, that considered the servicing and
interest costs of the acquired deposit base, an estimate of the cost associated with alternative funding sources, expected client
attrition rates, deposit growth rates, and a discount rate. The fair values of customer relationships were estimated using a multi-
period excess earnings approach that considered future period post-tax earnings, as well as a discount rate.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for more information on our valuation
methods and the results of applying the acquisition method of accounting, including the estimated fair values of the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed and, where relevant, the estimated remaining useful lives.
RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued new guidance related to troubled debt restructurings and
disclosures regarding write-offs of financing receivables (ASU 2022-02), amending guidance related to the measurement of
credit losses on financial instruments (ASU 2016-13). The amendment eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt
restructurings for creditors, but requires enhanced disclosures for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when
a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, and requires disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination
for financing receivables. This new guidance is effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2023 and will be applied
on a prospective basis. Although permitted, we do not plan to early adopt. We do not expect the adoption of this new guidance
to have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Risks are an inherent part of our business and activities. Management of risk is critical to our fiscal soundness and profitability.
Our risk management processes are multi-faceted and require communication, judgment and knowledge of financial products
and markets. We have a formal Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) program to assess and review aggregate risks across the
firm. Our management takes an active role in the ERM process, which requires specific administrative and business functions
to participate in the identification, assessment, monitoring and control of various risks.
The principal risks related to our business activities are market, credit, liquidity, operational, model, and compliance.
Governance
Our Board of Directors, including its Audit and Risk Committee, oversees the firm’s management and mitigation of risk,
reinforcing a culture that encourages ethical conduct and risk management throughout the firm. Senior management
communicates and reinforces this culture through three lines of risk management and a number of senior-level management
committees. Our first line of risk management, which includes all of our businesses, owns its risks and is responsible for
identifying, mitigating, and escalating risks arising from its day-to-day activities. The second line of risk management, which
includes Compliance and Risk Management, advises our client-facing businesses and other first-line functions in identifying,
assessing, and mitigating risk. The second line of risk management tests and monitors the effectiveness of controls, as deemed
necessary, and escalates risks when appropriate to senior management and the Board of Directors. The third line of risk
management, Internal Audit, independently reviews activities conducted by the previous lines of risk management to assess
their management and mitigation of risk, providing additional assurance to the Board of Directors and senior management, with
a view toward enhancing our oversight, management, and mitigation of risk. Our legal department provides legal advice and
guidance to each of these three lines of risk management.
Market risk
Market risk is our risk of loss resulting from the impact of changes in market prices on our trading inventory, derivatives, and
investment positions. We have exposure to market risk primarily through our broker-dealer trading operations and our banking
operations. Through our broker-dealer subsidiaries we trade debt obligations and equity securities and maintain trading
inventories to ensure availability of securities and to facilitate client transactions. Inventory levels may fluctuate daily as a
result of client demand. We also hold investments within our available-for-sale securities portfolio, and from time-to-time may
hold SBA loan securitizations not yet transferred. Our primary market risks relate to interest rates, equity prices, and foreign
exchange rates. Interest rate risk results from changes in levels of interest rates, the volatility of interest rates, mortgage
prepayment speeds and credit spreads. Equity risk results from changes in prices of equity securities. Foreign exchange risk
results from changes in spot prices, forward prices and volatility of foreign exchange rates. See Notes 2, 4, 5 and 6 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for fair value and other information regarding our trading inventories,
available-for-sale securities, and derivative instruments.
We regularly enter into underwriting commitments and, as a result, we may be subject to market risk on any unsold shares
issued in the offerings to which we are committed. Risk exposure is controlled by limiting our participation, the transaction
size, or through the syndication process.
67
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The Market Risk Management department is responsible for measuring, monitoring, and reporting market risks associated with
the firm’s trading and derivative portfolios. While Market Risk Management maintains ongoing communication with the
revenue-generating business units, it is independent of such units.
Interest rate risk
Trading activities
We are exposed to interest rate risk as a result of our trading inventory (primarily comprised of fixed income instruments) in
our Capital Markets segment. Changes in value of our trading inventory may result from fluctuations in interest rates, credit
spreads, equity prices, macroeconomic factors, investor expectations or risk appetites, liquidity, as well as dynamic
relationships among these factors. We actively manage interest rate risk arising from our fixed income trading inventory
through the use of hedging strategies utilizing U.S. Treasuries, futures contracts, liquid spread products and derivatives.
Our primary method for controlling risks within trading inventories is through the use of dollar-based and exposure-based
limits. A hierarchy of limits exists at multiple levels, including firm, business unit, desk (e.g., for equities, corporate bonds,
municipal bonds), product sub-type (e.g., below-investment-grade positions) and, at times, at the individual position. For
derivative positions, which are primarily comprised of interest rate swaps, we have established limits based on a number of
factors, including interest rate, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, spread, ratio, basis, and volatility risk. Trading
positions and derivatives are monitored against these limits through daily reports that are distributed to senior management.
During volatile markets, we may temporarily reduce limits and/or choose to pare our trading inventories to reduce risk.
We monitor Value-at-Risk (“VaR”) for all of our trading portfolios on a daily basis for risk management purposes and as a
result of applying the Fed’s Market Risk Rule (“MRR”) for the purpose of calculating our capital ratios. The MRR, also known
as the “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines: Market Risk” rule released by the Fed, the OCC and the FDIC, requires us to calculate
VaR for all of our trading portfolios, including fixed income, equity, derivatives, and foreign exchange instruments. VaR is an
appropriate statistical technique for estimating potential losses in trading portfolios due to typical adverse market movements
over a specified time horizon with a suitable confidence level. However, there are inherent limitations of utilizing VaR
including: historical movements in markets may not accurately predict future market movements; VaR does not take into
account the liquidity of individual positions; VaR does not estimate losses over longer time horizons; and extended periods of
one-directional markets potentially distort risks within the portfolio. In addition, should markets become more volatile, actual
trading losses may exceed VaR results presented on a single day and might accumulate over a longer time horizon. As a result,
management complements VaR with sensitivity analysis and stress testing and employs additional controls such as a daily
review of trading results, review of aged inventory, independent review of pricing, monitoring of concentrations and review of
issuer ratings.
To calculate VaR, we use models which incorporate historical simulation. This approach assumes that historical changes in
market conditions, such as in interest rates and equity prices, are representative of future changes. Simulation is based on daily
market data for the previous twelve months. VaR is reported at a 99% confidence level for a one-day time horizon. Assuming
that future market conditions change as they have in the past twelve months, we would expect to incur losses greater than those
predicted by our one-day VaR estimates about once every 100 trading days, or about three times per year on average. For
regulatory capital calculation purposes, we also report VaR and Stressed VaR numbers for a ten-day time horizon. The VaR
model is independently reviewed by our Model Risk Management function. See the “Model risk” section that follows for
further information.
The modeling of the risk characteristics of trading positions involves a number of assumptions and approximations that
management believes to be reasonable. However, there is no uniform industry methodology for estimating VaR, and different
assumptions or approximations could produce materially different VaR estimates. As a result, VaR results are more reliable
when used as indicators of risk levels and trends within a firm than as a basis for inferring differences in risk-taking across
firms.
68
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The following table sets forth the high, low, period-end and average daily one-day VaR for all of our trading portfolios,
including fixed income and equity instruments, and for our derivatives for the periods and dates indicated.

Average daily VaR was lower during the year ended September 30, 2022 compared with the year ended September 30, 2021
due to the impact of scenarios of elevated volatility as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic (which commenced in March 2020)
on our VaR model during the prior year. Period-end VaR increased as of September 30, 2022 as a result of increased market
volatility in September 2022, as well as the addition of the SumRidge Partners trading inventory.
The Fed’s MRR requires us to perform daily back-testing procedures for our VaR model, whereby we compare each day’s
projected VaR to its regulatory-defined daily trading losses, which exclude fees, commissions, reserves, net interest income and
intraday trading. Regulatory-defined daily trading losses are used to evaluate the performance of our VaR model and are not
comparable to our actual daily net revenues. Based on these daily “ex ante” versus “ex post” comparisons, we determine
whether the number of times that regulatory-defined daily trading losses exceed VaR is consistent with our expectations at a
99% confidence level. During the year ended September 30, 2022, our regulatory-defined daily losses in our trading portfolios
exceeded our predicted VaR on ten occasions primarily due to the volatility and market uncertainty related to the Fed’s short-
term interest rate increases.
Separately, RJF provides additional market risk disclosures to comply with the MRR, including 10-day VaR and 10-day
Stressed VaR, which are available on our website at https://www.raymondjames.com/investor-relations/financial-information/
filings-and-reports within “Other Reports and Information.”
Banking operations
Our Bank segment maintains an interest-earning asset portfolio that is comprised of cash, SBL, C&I loans, commercial and
residential real estate loans, REIT loans, and tax-exempt loans, as well as securities held in the available-for-sale securities
portfolio. These interest-earning assets are primarily funded by client deposits. Based on the current asset portfolio, our
banking operations are subject to interest rate risk. We analyze interest rate risk based on forecasted net interest income, which
is the net amount of interest received and interest paid, and the net portfolio valuation, both across a range of interest rate
scenarios.
One of the objectives of the Asset and Liability Committee is to manage the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in
market interest rates. This committee uses several measures to monitor and limit interest rate risk in our banking operations,
including scenario analysis and economic value of equity. We utilize a hedging strategy using interest rate swaps in our
banking operations as a result of our asset and liability management process. For further information regarding this hedging
strategy, see Notes 2 and 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K.
To ensure that we remain within the tolerances established for net interest income, a sensitivity analysis of net interest income
to interest rate conditions is estimated under a variety of scenarios. We use simulation models and estimation techniques to
assess the sensitivity of net interest income to movements in interest rates. The model estimates the sensitivity by calculating
interest income and interest expense in a dynamic balance sheet environment using current repricing, prepayment, and
reinvestment of cash flow assumptions over a 12-month time horizon. Assumptions used in the model include interest rate
movement, the slope of the yield curve, and balance sheet composition and growth. The model also considers interest rate-
related risks such as pricing spreads, pricing of client cash accounts, and prepayments. Various interest rate scenarios are
modeled in order to determine the effect those scenarios may have on net interest income.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The following table is an analysis of our banking operations’ estimated net interest income over a 12-month period based on
instantaneous shifts in interest rates (expressed in basis points) using our previously described asset/liability model, which
assumes a dynamic balance sheet and that interest rates do not decline below zero. While not presented, additional rate
scenarios are performed, including interest rate ramps and yield curve shifts that may more realistically mimic the speed of
potential interest rate movements. We also perform simulations on time horizons of up to five years to assess longer-term
impacts to various interest rate scenarios. On a quarterly basis, we test expected model results to actual performance.
Additionally, any changes made to key assumptions in the model are documented and approved by the Asset and Liability
Committee.

respective loan. See the discussion within the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations - Risk management - Credit risk - Risk monitoring process” section of this Form 10-K for additional information
regarding our interest-only residential mortgage loan portfolio.
In our available-for-sale securities portfolio, we hold primarily fixed-rate agency-backed MBS and agency-backed CMOs
which are carried at fair value on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, with changes in the fair value of the
portfolio recorded through OCI on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. At September 30,
2022, our available-for-sale securities portfolio had a fair value of $9.89 billion with a weighted-average yield of 1.84%. The
effective duration of our available-for-sale securities portfolio as of September 30, 2022 was approximately 3.86, where
duration is defined as the approximate percentage change in price for a 100-basis point change in rates. See Note 5 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for additional information on our available-for-sale securities portfolio.
Equity price risk
We are exposed to equity price risk as a result of our capital markets activities. Our broker-dealer activities are generally client-
driven, and we carry equity securities as part of our trading inventory to facilitate such activities, although the amounts are not
as significant as our fixed income trading inventory. We attempt to reduce the risk of loss inherent in our inventory of equity
securities by monitoring those security positions each day and establishing position limits. Equity securities held in our trading
inventory are generally included in VaR.
In addition, we have a private equity portfolio, included in “Other investments” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition, which is primarily comprised of investments in third-party funds. See Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements of this Form 10-K for additional information on this portfolio.
Foreign exchange risk
We are subject to foreign exchange risk due to our investments in foreign subsidiaries as well as transactions and resulting
balances denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. For example, our bank loan portfolio includes loans which are
denominated in Canadian dollars, totaling $1.51 billion and $1.29 billion at September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, when
converted to the U.S. dollar. A majority of such loans are held in a Canadian subsidiary of Raymond James Bank, which is
discussed in the following sections.
Investments in foreign subsidiaries
Raymond James Bank has an investment in a Canadian subsidiary, resulting in foreign exchange risk. To mitigate its foreign
exchange risk, Raymond James Bank utilizes short-term, forward foreign exchange contracts. These derivatives are primarily
accounted for as net investment hedges in the consolidated financial statements. See Notes 2 and 6 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for further information regarding these derivatives.
At September 30, 2022, we had foreign exchange risk in our investment in RJ Ltd. of CAD 381 million and in our investment in
Charles Stanley of £272 million, which were not hedged. All of our other investments in subsidiaries located in Europe are not
hedged and we do not believe we had material foreign exchange risk either individually, or in the aggregate, pertaining to these
subsidiaries as of September 30, 2022. Foreign exchange gains/losses related to our foreign investments are primarily reflected
in OCI on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. See Note 20 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for further information regarding our components of OCI.
Transactions and resulting balances denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar
We are subject to foreign exchange risk due to our holdings of cash and certain other assets and liabilities resulting from
transactions denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. Any currency-related gains/losses arising from these foreign
currency denominated balances are reflected in “Other” revenues in our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income. The foreign exchange risk associated with a portion of such transactions and balances denominated in
foreign currency are mitigated utilizing short-term, forward foreign exchange contracts. Such derivatives are not designated
hedges and therefore, the related gains/losses are included in “Other” revenues in our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for information
regarding our derivatives.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss due to adverse changes in a borrower’s, issuer’s or counterparty’s ability to meet its financial
obligations under contractual or agreed-upon terms. The nature and amount of credit risk depends on the type of transaction,
the structure and duration of that transaction, and the parties involved. Credit risk is an integral component of the profit
assessment of lending and other financing activities.
Brokerage activities
We are engaged in various trading and brokerage activities in which our counterparties primarily include broker-dealers, banks,
exchanges, clearing organizations, and other financial institutions. We are exposed to risk that these counterparties may not
fulfill their obligations. In addition, certain commitments, including underwritings, may create exposure to individual issuers
and businesses. The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparty and/or the issuer of the instrument. In
addition, we may be subject to concentration risk if we hold large positions in or have large commitments to a single
counterparty, borrower, or group of similar counterparties or borrowers (e.g., in the same industry). We seek to mitigate these
risks by imposing and monitoring individual and aggregate position limits within each business segment for each counterparty,
conducting regular credit reviews of financial counterparties, reviewing security, derivative and loan concentrations, holding
and calculating the fair value of collateral on certain transactions and conducting business through clearing organizations, which
may guarantee performance. See Notes 2, 6, and 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for
further information about our credit risk mitigation related to derivatives and collateralized agreements.
Our client activities involve the execution, settlement, and financing of various transactions on behalf of our clients. Client
activities are transacted on either a cash or margin basis. Credit exposure results from client margin loans, which are monitored
daily and are collateralized by the securities in the clients’ accounts. We monitor exposure to industry sectors and individual
securities and perform analysis on a daily basis in connection with our margin lending activities. We adjust our margin
requirements if we believe our risk exposure is not appropriate based on market conditions. In addition, when clients execute a
purchase, we are at some risk that the client will default on their financial obligation associated with the trade. If this occurs,
we may have to liquidate the position at a loss. See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form
10-K for further information about our determination of the allowance for credit losses associated with certain of our brokerage
lending activities.
We offer loans to financial advisors for recruiting and retention purposes. We have credit risk and may incur a loss primarily in
the event that such borrower is no longer affiliated with us. See Notes 2 and 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements of this Form 10-K for further information about our loans to financial advisors.
Banking activities
Our Bank segment has a substantial loan portfolio. Our strategy for credit risk management related to bank loans includes well-
defined credit policies, uniform underwriting criteria, and ongoing risk monitoring and review processes for all credit
exposures. The strategy also includes diversification across loan types, geographic location, industry and client level, regular
credit examinations and management reviews of all corporate and tax-exempt loans as well as individual delinquent residential
loans. The credit risk management process also includes annual independent reviews of the credit risk monitoring process that
performs assessments of compliance with credit policies, risk ratings, and other critical credit information. We seek to identify
potential problem loans early, record any necessary risk rating changes and charge-offs promptly, and maintain appropriate
reserve levels for expected losses. We utilize a thorough credit risk rating system to measure the credit quality of individual
corporate and tax-exempt loans and related unfunded lending commitments. For our residential mortgage loans and
substantially all of our SBL, we utilize the credit risk rating system used by bank regulators in measuring the credit quality of
each homogeneous class of loans. In evaluating credit risk, we consider trends in loan performance, historical experience
through various economic cycles, industry or client concentrations, the loan portfolio composition and macroeconomic factors
(both current and forecasted). These factors have a potentially negative impact on loan performance and net charge-offs.
While our bank loan portfolio is diversified, a significant downturn in the overall economy, deterioration in real estate values or
a significant issue within any sector or sectors where we have a concentration will generally result in large provisions for credit
losses and/or charge-offs. We determine the allowance required for specific loan pools based on relative risk characteristics of
the loan portfolio. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our methods for determining the allowance for each class of loans and
make enhancements we consider appropriate. Our allowance for credit losses methodology is described in Note 2 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K. As our bank loan portfolio is segregated into six portfolio segments,
72
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
likewise, the allowance for credit losses is segregated by these same segments. The risk characteristics relevant to each
portfolio segment are as follows.
SBL: Loans in this segment are primarily collateralized by the borrower’s marketable securities at advance rates consistent
with industry standards and, to a lesser extent, the cash surrender value of life insurance policies issued by an investment-
grade insurance company. Substantially all SBL are monitored daily for adherence to loan-to-value (“LTV”) guidelines
and when a loan exceeds the required LTV, a collateral call is issued. Past due loans are minimal as any past due amounts
result in a notice to the client for payment or the potential sale of the collateral which will bring the loan to a current status.
The vast majority of our SBL qualify for the practical expedient allowed under the CECL guidance whereby we estimate
zero credit losses to the extent the fair value of the collateral securing the loan equals or exceeds the related carrying value
of the loan. SBL also generally qualify for lower capital requirements under regulatory capital rules.
C&I: Loans in this segment are made to businesses and are generally secured by all assets of the business. Repayment is
expected from the cash flows of the respective business. Unfavorable economic and political conditions, including the
resultant decrease in consumer or business spending, may have an adverse effect on the credit quality of loans in this
segment.
CRE: Loans in this segment are primarily secured by income-producing properties. For owner-occupied properties, the
cash flows are derived from the operations of the business, and the underlying cash flows may be adversely affected by the
deterioration in the financial condition of the operating business. The underlying cash flows generated by non-owner-
occupied properties may be adversely affected by increased vacancy and rental rates, which are monitored on an ongoing
basis. This portfolio segment includes CRE construction loans which involve risks such as project budget overruns,
performance variables related to the contractor and subcontractors, or the inability to sell the project or secure permanent
financing once the project is completed. With respect to commercial construction of residential developments, there is also
the risk that the builder has a geographical concentration of developments. Adverse information arising from any of these
factors may have a negative effect on the credit quality of loans in this segment.
REIT: Loans in this segment are made to businesses that own or finance income-producing real estate across various
property sectors. This portfolio segment may include extensions of credit to companies that engage in real estate
development. Repayment of these loans is dependent on income generated from real estate properties or the sale of real
estate. A portion of this segment may consist of loans secured by residential product types (single-family residential,
including condominiums and land held for residential development) within a range of markets. Deterioration in the
financial condition of the operating business, reductions in the value of real estate, as well as increased vacancy and rental
rates may all adversely affect the loans in this segment.
Residential mortgage (includes home equity loans/lines): All of our residential mortgage loans adhere to stringent
underwriting parameters pertaining to credit score and credit history, debt-to-income ratio of the borrower, LTV, and
combined LTV (including second mortgage/home equity loans). We do not originate or purchase adjustable rate mortgage
(“ARM”) loans with negative amortization, reverse mortgages, or loans to subprime borrowers. Loans with deeply
discounted teaser rates are also not originated or purchased. All loans in this segment are collateralized by residential real
estate and repayment is primarily dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. A decline in the strength of
the economy, particularly unemployment rates and housing prices, among other factors, could have a significant effect on
the credit quality of loans in this segment.
Tax-exempt: Loans in this segment are made to governmental and nonprofit entities and are generally secured by a pledge
of revenue and, in some cases, by a security interest in or a mortgage on the asset being financed. For loans to
governmental entities, repayment is expected from a pledge of certain revenues or taxes. For nonprofit entities, repayment
is expected from revenues which may include fundraising proceeds. These loans are subject to demographic risk, therefore
much of the credit assessment of tax-exempt loans is driven by the entity’s revenue base and the general economic
environment. Adverse developments in either of these areas may have a negative effect on the credit quality of loans in
this segment.

The level of charge-off activity is a factor that is considered in evaluating the potential severity of future credit losses. The
following table presents net loan (charge-offs)/recoveries and the percentage of net loan (charge-offs)/recoveries to the average
outstanding loan balances by loan portfolio segment.

respectively.
The level of nonperforming assets is another indicator of potential future credit losses. Nonperforming assets are comprised of
both nonperforming loans and other real estate owned. Nonperforming loans include those loans which have been placed on
nonaccrual status and certain accruing loans which are 90 days or more past due and in the process of collection. The following
table presents the balance of nonperforming loans, nonperforming assets, and related key credit ratios.

The nonperforming loan balances in the preceding table excluded $7 million and $8 million as of September 30, 2022 and 2021,
respectively, of residential troubled debt restructurings which were returned to accrual status in accordance with our policy.
Although our nonperforming assets as a percentage of our Bank segment’s assets remained low as of September 30, 2022, any
prolonged period of market deterioration could result in an increase in our nonperforming assets, an increase in our allowance
for credit losses and/or an increase in net charge-offs in future periods, although the extent would depend on future
developments that are highly uncertain.
See further explanation of our bank loan portfolio segments, allowance for credit losses, and the credit loss provision in Notes 2
and 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Results of Operations - Bank” of this Form 10-K.
Loan underwriting policies
A component of our Bank segment’s credit risk management strategy is conservative, well-defined policies and procedures.
Our Bank segment’s underwriting policies for the major types of loans are described in the following sections.
SBL and residential mortgage loan portfolios
Our residential mortgage loan portfolio largely consists of first mortgage loans originated by us via referrals from our PCG
financial advisors and the general public, as well as first mortgage loans purchased by us. Substantially all of our residential
mortgage loans adhere to strict underwriting parameters pertaining to credit score and credit history, debt-to-income ratio of the
borrower, LTV and combined LTV (including second mortgage/home equity loans). As of September 30, 2022, approximately
95% of the residential mortgage loan portfolio consisted of owner-occupant borrowers (approximately 75% for their primary
residences and 20% for second home residences). Approximately 35% of the first lien residential mortgage loans were ARM
74
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
loans, which receive interest-only payments based on a fixed rate for an initial period of the loan and then become fully
amortizing, subject to annual and lifetime interest rate caps. A significant portion of our originated 15 or 30-year fixed-rate
residential mortgage loans are sold in the secondary market.
Our SBL portfolio is primarily comprised of loans fully collateralized by client’s marketable securities and represented 35% of
our total loans held for sale and investment as of September 30, 2022. The underwriting policy for the SBL portfolio primarily
includes a review of collateral, including LTV, and a review of repayment history.
Corporate and tax-exempt loan portfolios
Raymond James Bank: Raymond James Bank’s corporate and tax-exempt loan portfolios were comprised of approximately 500
borrowers, the majority of which are underwritten, managed, and reviewed at our Raymond James Bank corporate headquarters
location, which facilitates close monitoring of the portfolio by credit risk personnel, relationship officers and senior bank
executives. Approximately half of Raymond James Bank’s corporate borrowers are public companies. A large portion of
Raymond James Bank’s corporate loan portfolio is diversified among a number of industries in the U.S and Canada and a large
portion of these loans are to borrowers in industries in which we have expertise through coverage provided by our Capital
Markets research analysts. Raymond James Bank’s corporate loan portfolio is comprised of project finance real estate loans,
commercial lines of credit, and term loans, the majority of which are participations in Shared National Credit (“SNC”) or other
large syndicated loans. Raymond James Bank is typically either involved in the syndication loans at inception or purchases
loans in secondary trading markets. The remainder of the corporate loan portfolio is comprised of smaller participations and
direct loans. There are no subordinated loans or mezzanine financings in the corporate loan portfolio. Raymond James Bank’s
tax-exempt loans are long-term loans to governmental and non-profit entities. These loans generally have lower overall credit
risk, but are subject to other risks that are not usually present with corporate clients, including the risk associated with the
constituency served by a local government and the risk in ensuring an obligation has appropriate tax treatment.
TriState Capital Bank: TriState Capital Bank’s corporate loan portfolio was comprised of 900 borrowers, all of which are
underwritten, managed, and reviewed by credit risk personnel, relationship officers, and senior bank executives. All corporate
loans are approved by a committee of senior executives. TriState Capital Bank primarily targets middle-market businesses with
revenues between $5 million and $300 million located within the primary markets of Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, and New
York. Each representative office is led by an experienced regional president to understand the unique borrowing needs of the
middle-market businesses in the area. They are supported by highly experienced relationship managers who target middle-
market business customers and maintain strong credit quality within their loan portfolios. TriState Capital Bank’s loan
portfolio is diversified by geography, loan type, and industry and is primarily comprised of project finance real estate loans,
commercial lines of credit, and term loans, the majority of which are direct originations.
Regardless of the source, all corporate and tax-exempt loans are independently underwritten to our credit policies, are subject to
approval by a loan committee, and credit quality is monitored on an ongoing basis by our lending staff. Our credit policies
include criteria related to LTV limits based upon property type, single borrower loan limits, loan term and structure parameters
(including guidance on leverage, debt service coverage ratios and debt repayment ability), industry concentration limits,
secondary sources of repayment, municipality demographics, and other criteria. Our corporate loans are generally secured by
all assets of the borrower and in some instances are secured by mortgages on specific real estate. Tax-exempt loans are
generally secured by a pledge of revenue. In a limited number of transactions, loans in the portfolio are extended on an
unsecured basis. In addition, corporate and tax-exempt loans are subject to regulatory review.
Risk monitoring process
Another component of credit risk strategy for our bank loan portfolio is the ongoing risk monitoring and review processes,
including our internal loan review process, as well as our rigorous processes to manage and limit credit losses arising from loan
delinquencies. There are various other factors included in these processes, depending on the loan portfolio.
SBL and residential mortgage loan portfolios
Substantially all collateral securing our SBL portfolio is monitored on a daily basis. Collateral adjustments, as triggered by our
monitoring procedures, are made by the borrower as necessary to ensure our loans are adequately secured, resulting in
minimizing our credit risk. Collateral calls have been minimal relative to our SBL portfolio with no losses incurred to date.
We track and review many factors to monitor credit risk in our residential mortgage loan portfolio. The factors include, but are
not limited to: loan performance trends, loan product parameters and qualification requirements, borrower credit scores, level of
75

documentation, loan purpose, geographic concentrations, average loan size, risk rating, and LTV ratios. See Note 8 in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for additional information.
The following table presents a summary of delinquent residential mortgage loans, the vast majority of which are first mortgage
loans, which are comprised of loans which are two or more payments past due as well as loans in the process of foreclosure.

Our September 30, 2022 percentage compares favorably to the national average for over 30 day delinquencies of 2.09%, as
most recently reported by the Fed.
To manage and limit credit losses, we maintain a rigorous process to manage our loan delinquencies. Substantially all of our
residential first mortgages are serviced by a third party whereby the primary collection effort resides with the servicer. Our
personnel direct and actively monitor the servicers’ efforts through extensive communications regarding individual loan status
changes and through requirements of timely and appropriate collection of property management actions and reporting,
including management of third parties used in the collection process (e.g., appraisers, attorneys, etc.). Residential mortgage
loans over 60 days past due are generally reviewed by our personnel monthly and documented in a written report detailing
delinquency information, balances, collection status, appraised value, and other data points. Our senior management meets
quarterly to discuss the status, collection strategy and charge-off recommendations on substantially all residential mortgage loan
over 60 days past due. Updated collateral valuations are generally obtained for loans over 90 days past due and charge-offs are
typically taken on individual loans based on these valuations.
Credit risk is also managed by diversifying the residential mortgage portfolio. Most of the loans in our residential loan
portfolio are to PCG clients across the U.S. The following table details the geographic concentrations (top five states) of our
one-to-four family residential mortgage loans.

The occurrence of a natural disaster or severe weather event in any of these states, for example wildfires in California and
hurricanes in Florida, could result in additional credit loss provisions and/or charge-offs on our loans in such states and
therefore negatively impact our net income and regulatory capital in any given period.
Loans where borrowers may be subject to payment increases include ARM loans with terms that initially require payment of
interest only. Payments may increase significantly when the interest-only period ends and the loan principal begins to amortize.
At September 30, 2022 and 2021, these loans totaled $2.55 billion and $1.97 billion, respectively, or approximately 35% and
37% of the residential mortgage portfolio, respectively. The weighted-average number of years before the remainder of the
loans, which were still in their interest-only period at September 30, 2022, begins amortizing is 6.6 years.
Corporate and tax-exempt loans
Credit risk in our corporate and tax-exempt loan portfolios is monitored on an individual loan basis for trends in borrower
operating performance, payment history, credit ratings, collateral performance, loan covenant compliance, semi-annual SNC
exam results, where applicable, municipality demographics and other factors including industry performance and
concentrations. As part of the credit review process, the loan rating is reviewed on an ongoing basis to confirm the appropriate
risk rating for each credit. The individual loan ratings resulting from the SNC exams are incorporated in our internal loan
ratings when the ratings are received. If the SNC rating is lower on an individual loan than our internal rating, the loan is
downgraded. While we consider historical SNC exam results in our loan ratings methodology, differences between the SNC
exam and internal ratings on individual loans typically arise due to subjectivity of the loan classification process. Downgrades
76
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
resulting from these differences may result in additional provisions for credit losses in periods when SNC exam results are
received. The majority of our tax-exempt loan portfolio is comprised of loans to investment-grade borrowers. See Note 2 of
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K for additional information on our allowance for credit losses
policies.
Credit risk is managed by diversifying the corporate bank loan portfolio. Our corporate bank loan portfolio does not contain a
significant concentration in any single industry. The following table details the industry concentrations (top five categories) of
our corporate bank loans.

Certain sectors continue to be impacted by supply chain disruptions and changes in consumer behavior. In addition,
macroeconomic uncertainty and the Ukraine conflict have further exacerbated supply chain stresses and inflation concerns. In
addition, the Fed’s measures to control inflation, including through increases in short-term interest rates, have had an impact on
consumer behavior and are likely to continue to do so in the near-term. These and related factors could negatively impact our
borrowers, particularly those in consumer-facing or supply-dependent industries. In addition, we continue to monitor our
exposure to office real estate where trends have changed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Liquidity risk
See “Item 7 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and capital
resources” of this Form 10-K for information regarding our liquidity and how we manage liquidity risk.
Operational risk
Operational risk generally refers to the risk of loss resulting from our operations, including, but not limited to, business
disruptions, improper or unauthorized execution and processing of transactions, deficiencies in our technology or financial
operating systems and inadequacies or breaches in our control processes including cybersecurity incidents (see “Item 1A - Risk
Factors” of this Form 10-K for a discussion of certain cybersecurity risks). These risks are less direct than credit and market
risk, but managing them is critical, particularly in a rapidly changing environment with increasing transaction volumes and
complexity. We operate different businesses in diverse markets and are reliant on the ability of our employees and systems to
process a large number of transactions. In the event of a breakdown or improper operation of systems or improper action by
employees, we could suffer financial loss, regulatory sanctions and damage to our reputation. In order to mitigate and control
operational risk, we have developed and continue to enhance specific policies and procedures that are designed to identify and
manage operational risk at appropriate levels throughout the organization and within such departments as Finance, Operations,
Information Technology, Legal, Compliance, Risk Management and Internal Audit. These control mechanisms attempt to
ensure that operational policies and procedures are being followed and that our various businesses are operating within
established corporate policies and limits. In addition, we have created business continuity plans for critical systems, and
redundancies are built into the systems as deemed appropriate.
We have an Operational Risk Management Committee comprised of members of senior management, which reviews and
addresses operational risks across our businesses. The committee establishes risk appetite levels for major operational risks,
monitors operating unit performance for adherence to defined risk tolerances, and establishes policies for risk management at
the enterprise level.
Periods of severe market volatility can result in a significantly higher level of transactions on specific days, which may present
operational challenges from time to time that may result in losses. These losses can result from, but are not limited to, trade
errors, failed transaction settlements, late collateral calls to borrowers and counterparties, or interruptions to our system
processing. We did not incur any significant losses related to such operational challenges during the year ended September 30,
2022.
77
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
As more fully described in the discussion of our business technology risks included in various risk factors presented in “Item
1A - Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K, despite our implementation of protective measures and endeavoring to modify them as
circumstances warrant, our computer systems, software and networks may be vulnerable to human error, natural disasters,
power loss, cyber-attacks and other information security breaches, and other events that could have an impact on the security
and stability of our operations.
Model risk
Model risk refers to the possibility of unintended business outcomes arising from the design, implementation or use of models.
Models are used throughout the firm for a variety of purposes such as the valuation of financial instruments, the calculation of
our allowance for credit losses, assessing risk, stress testing, and to assist in making certain business decisions. Model risk
includes the potential risk that management makes incorrect decisions based upon either incorrect model results or incorrect
understanding and use of model results. Model risk may also occur when model outputs differ from the expected result. Model
errors or misuse could result in significant financial loss, inaccurate financial or regulatory reporting, misaligned business
strategies or damage to our reputation.
Model Risk Management is a separate department within our Risk Management department and is independent of model
owners, users, and developers. Our model risk management framework consists primarily of model governance, maintaining
the firmwide model inventory, validating and approving models used across the firm, and ongoing monitoring. Results of
validations and issues identified are reported to the Enterprise Risk Management Committee and the Audit and Risk Committee
of the Board of Directors. Model Risk Management assumes responsibility for the independent and effective challenge of
model completeness, integrity and design based on intended use.
Compliance risk
Compliance risk is the risk of legal or regulatory sanctions, financial loss, or reputational damage that the firm may suffer from
a failure to comply with applicable laws, external standards, or internal requirements.
We have established a framework to oversee, manage, and mitigate compliance risk throughout the firm, both within and across
businesses, functions, legal entities, and jurisdictions. The framework includes roles and responsibilities for the Board of
Directors, senior management, and all three lines of risk management. This framework also includes programs and processes
through which the firm identifies, assesses, controls, measures, monitors, and reports on compliance risk and provides
compliance-related training throughout the firm. The Compliance department plays a key leadership role in the oversight,
management, and mitigation of compliance risk throughout the firm. It does this by conducting an annual compliance risk
assessment, carrying out compliance monitoring and testing activities, implementing compliance policies, training associates on
compliance-related topics, and reporting compliance risk-related issues and metrics to the Board of Directors and senior
management, among other activities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Raymond James Financial, Inc.:
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of Raymond James Financial, Inc. and
subsidiaries (the Company) as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
September 30, 2022, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2022 and
2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended September 30,
2022, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022, based on criteria established in
Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission, and our report dated November 22, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the
PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and
the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement,
whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the
consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such
procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial
statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or
disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or
complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated
financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate
opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Assessment of the allowance for credit losses related to the commercial and industrial (C&I), real estate investment trust
(REIT) and the commercial real estate (CRE) portfolio segments that are collectively evaluated for impairment
As discussed in Note 2 and Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s allowance for credit losses on
loans was $396 million as of September 30, 2022, a portion of which related to the Raymond James Bank allowance for
credit losses (ACL) on C&I, REIT and CRE portfolio segments evaluated on a collective basis (the collective ACL). The
Company estimates the collective ACL using a current expected credit losses methodology which is based on relevant
information about historical losses, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions
that affect the collectability of loan balances. The collective ACL is a product of multiplying the Company’s estimates of
probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD) and exposure at default. The Company uses third-party historical
information combined with macroeconomic variables over the reasonable and supportable forecast periods based on a
single economic forecast scenario to estimate the PDs and LGDs. After the reasonable and supportable forecast periods, for
C&I and REIT portfolio segments, the Company reverts to historical loss information over a one-year period using a
80
straight-line reversion approach. For the CRE portfolio segment, the Company incorporates a reasonable and supportable
forecast of various macroeconomic variables over the remaining life of the assets. The estimated PDs and LGDs are
applied to estimated exposure at default considering the contractual loan term adjusted for expected prepayments to
estimate expected losses. Adjustments are made to the collective ACL to reflect certain qualitative factors that are not
incorporated into the quantitative models and related estimate.
We identified the assessment of the September 30, 2022 collective ACL on Raymond James Bank loans related to the C&I,
REIT and CRE portfolio segments as a critical audit matter. A high degree of audit effort, including specialized skills and
knowledge, and subjective and complex auditor judgment was involved in the assessment due to significant measurement
uncertainty. Specifically, the assessment encompassed the evaluation of the September 30, 2022 collective ACL
methodology, including the methods and models used to estimate the PDs and LGDs and their significant assumptions.
Such significant assumptions included portfolio segmentation, risk ratings, the selection of the single economic forecast
scenario and macroeconomic variables, the reasonable and supportable forecast periods and the reversion periods, and
third-party historical information. The assessment also included the evaluation of the qualitative factors by portfolio
segment. The assessment also included an evaluation of the conceptual soundness and performance of the PD and LGD
models. In addition, auditor judgment was required to evaluate the sufficiency of audit evidence obtained.
The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and
tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s measurement of the September 30,
2022 collective ACL estimate on Raymond James Bank loans related to the C&I, REIT and CRE portfolio segments,
including controls over the:
•
•
•
•
•
•
development of the collective ACL methodology on Bank loans related to the C&I, REIT and CRE portfolio segments
development of the PD and LGD models
identification and determination of the significant assumptions used in the PD and LGD models
development of the qualitative methodology and factors
performance monitoring of the PD and LGD models
analysis of the collective ACL on Bank loans related to the C&I, REIT and CRE portfolio segments results, trends, and
ratios.
We evaluated the Company’s process to develop the September 30, 2022 collective ACL estimate on Bank loans related to
the C&I, REIT and CRE portfolio segments by testing certain sources of data, factors, and assumptions that the Company
used, and considered the relevance and reliability of such data, factors, and assumptions. In addition, we involved credit
risk professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in:
•
evaluating the Company’s collective ACL methodology for compliance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles
evaluating judgments made by the company relative to the development and performance testing of the PD and LGD
models by comparing them to relevant Company-specific metrics and trends and the applicable industry and regulatory
practices
assessing the conceptual soundness and performance of the PD and LGD models by inspecting the model
documentation to determine whether the models are suitable for the intended use
evaluating the selection of the economic forecast scenario and underlying macroeconomic variables by comparing it to
the Company’s business environment and relevant industry practices
evaluating the length of the reasonable and supportable forecast periods and the reversion periods by comparing them
to specific portfolio segment risk characteristics and trends
determining whether the loan portfolio is segmented by similar risk characteristics by comparing to the Company’s
business environment and relevant industry practices
evaluating the relevance of third-party historical information by comparing to specific portfolio segment risk
characteristics
performing credit file reviews on a selection of loans to assess loan characteristics or risk ratings by evaluating the
financial performance of the borrower, sources of repayment, and any relevant guarantees or underlying collateral and
evaluating the methodology used to develop the qualitative factors and the effect of those factors on the allowance for
credit losses on Bank loans compared with relevant credit risk factors and consistency with credit trends and identified
limitations of the underlying quantitative models.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
We also assessed the sufficiency of the audit evidence obtained related to the September 30, 2022 collective ACL estimate
on Bank loans related to the C&I, REIT and CRE portfolio segments by evaluating the:
•
•
•
cumulative results of the audit procedures
qualitative aspects of the Company’s accounting practices and
potential bias in the accounting estimate.

The fair value measurement of a customer relationship intangible asset, bank loans, and core deposit intangible asset
acquired in business combinations
As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, on January 21, 2022, the Company completed the
acquisition of Charles Stanley Group, PLC (Charles Stanley), and on June 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition
of TriState Capital Holdings, Inc. (TriState Capital) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company accounted for these
transactions as business combinations. Accordingly, the purchase price attributable to these respective acquisitions was
allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. In the Charles Stanley
acquisition, the Company acquired a customer relationship intangible asset at a fair value of $65 million. The fair value of
the customer relationship intangible asset was based on a multi-period excess earnings approach that considered future
period post-tax earnings and a discount rate. In the TriState Capital acquisition, the Company acquired bank loans at a fair
value of $11.5 billion, and a core deposit intangible asset at a fair value of $89 million. The fair value of the bank loans was
based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered loan type and related collateral, credit loss expectations,
classification status, market interest rates and other market factors from the perspective of a market participant using key
assumptions of credit loss expectations and discount rate. The fair value of the core deposit intangible asset was based on
the discounted cash flow approach, specifically the favorable source of funds method, that considered the servicing and
interest costs of the acquired deposit base, an estimate of the cost associated with alternative funding sources, expected
client attrition rates, deposit growth rates, and discount rate.
We identified the evaluation of the fair value measurements of the customer relationship intangible asset, bank loans, and
core deposit intangible asset as a critical audit matter. A high degree of audit effort, including specialized skills and
knowledge, and subjective and complex auditor judgment was involved in the assessment of the fair value measurements
due to significant measurement uncertainty. Specifically, the assessment encompassed the evaluation of the (1) fair value
measurement methodologies, and (2) customer relationship intangible asset fair value measurement key assumptions,
including future period post-tax earnings and a discount rate; bank loans fair value measurement key assumptions,
including the credit loss expectations and discount rate; and core deposit intangible asset fair value measurement key
assumptions, including servicing and interest cost of the acquired deposit base, cost associated with alternative funding
sources, expected client attrition rates, deposit growth rates, and discount rate.
The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and
tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s fair value measurements of the
customer relationship intangible asset, bank loans, and core deposit intangible asset including controls over the (1)
development of the overall fair value measurement methodologies, and (2) determination of the key assumptions used in
the fair value estimates.
We evaluated the Company’s process to develop the fair value measurements of the customer relationship intangible asset,
bank loans and core deposit intangible asset by testing certain sources of data, inputs, and assumptions that the Company
used, and considered the relevance and reliability of such data, inputs, and assumptions. We involved valuation
professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in:
•
•
•
•
•
evaluating the fair value measurement methodology for compliance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
reviewing the underlying methodologies for the development of the key assumptions as compared to commonly
applied industry valuation techniques as well as internal and external data
evaluating the historical data for the future period post-tax earnings by comparing to internal data, and the discount
rate by comparing to internal and publicly available data for the customer relationship intangible asset
evaluating the credit loss expectations and discount rate by comparing to internal and publicly available data for the
bank loans and
evaluating the servicing cost, interest cost, and discount rate, by comparing to internal and publicly available data; the
costs of alternative funding and client attrition rates by comparing to internal data, and the deposit growth rates by
comparing to publicly available data for the core deposit intangible asset.

consolidate any variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which we are the primary beneficiary. Additional information on these VIEs
is provided in Note 2 and in Note 10 of this Form 10-K. When we do not have a controlling interest in an entity, but we exert
significant influence over the entity, we apply the equity method of accounting. All material intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Accounting estimates and assumptions
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting
principles (“GAAP”) requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and could have a
material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
We reclassified acquisition and disposition-related expenses which in prior years were reported separately as “Acquisition and
disposition-related expenses” on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income to the respective income
statement line items that align with the nature of the expenses, including reclassifications to “Compensation, commissions, and
benefits,” “Professional fees,” or “Other” expenses, as appropriate. Prior years have been conformed to the current
presentation.
In addition to the reclassifications discussed above, certain other prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current period’s presentation.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Recognition of non-interest revenues
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when promised services are delivered to our customers in an amount we
expect to receive in exchange for those services (i.e., the transaction price). Contracts with customers can include multiple
services, which are accounted for as separate “performance obligations” if they are determined to be distinct. Our performance
obligations to our customers are generally satisfied when we transfer the promised service to our customer, either at a point in
time or over time. Revenue from a performance obligation transferred at a point in time is recognized at the time that the
customer obtains control over the promised service. Revenue from our performance obligations satisfied over time is
recognized in a manner that depicts our performance in transferring control of the service, which is generally measured based
on time elapsed, as our customers receive the benefit of our services as they are provided.
Payment for the majority of our services is considered to be variable consideration, as the amount of revenue we expect to
receive is subject to factors outside of our control, including market conditions. Variable consideration is only included in
88

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
revenue when amounts are not subject to significant reversal, which is generally when uncertainty around the amount of
revenue to be received is resolved. We record deferred revenue from contracts with customers when payment is received prior
to the performance of our obligation to the customer.
We involve third parties in providing services to the customer for certain of our contracts with customers. We are generally
deemed to control the promised services before they are transferred to the customer. Accordingly, we present the related
revenues gross of the related costs.
We have elected the practical expedient allowed by the accounting guidance to not disclose information about remaining
performance obligations pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. See Note 21 for
additional information on our revenues.
Asset management and related administrative fees
We earn asset management and related administrative fees for performing asset management, portfolio management and related
administrative services to retail and institutional clients. Such fees are generally calculated as a percentage of the value of client
assets in fee-based accounts in our Private Client Group (“PCG”) segment or on the net asset value of assets managed by our
Raymond James Investment Management division (“Raymond James Investment Management,” formerly Carillon Tower
Advisers) in our Asset Management segment. The value of these assets is impacted by market fluctuations and net inflows or
outflows of assets. Fees are generally collected quarterly and are based on balances either at the beginning of the quarter or the
end of the quarter, or average balances throughout the quarter. Asset management and related administrative fees are
recognized on a monthly basis (i.e., over time) as the services are performed.
Revenues related to fee-based accounts under administration in PCG are shared by the PCG and Asset Management segments,
the amount of which depends on whether clients are invested in “managed programs” that are overseen by our Asset
Management segment (i.e., included in financial assets under management (“AUM”) in the Asset Management segment) and
the administrative services provided. Asset management revenues earned by Raymond James Investment Management for
retail accounts managed on behalf of third-party institutions, institutional accounts and proprietary mutual funds that we
manage are recorded entirely in the Asset Management segment.
Brokerage revenues
Securities commissions
Mutual and other fund products and insurance and annuity products
We earn revenues for distribution and related support services performed related to mutual and other funds, fixed and variable
annuities and insurance products. Depending on the product sold, we may receive an upfront fee for our services, a trailing
commission, or some combination thereof. Upfront commissions received are generally based on a fixed rate applied, as a
percentage, to amounts invested or the value of the contract at the time of sale and are generally recognized at the time of sale.
Trailing commissions are generally based on a fixed rate applied, as a percentage, to the net asset value of the fund, or the value
of the insurance policy or annuity contract. Trailing commissions on eligible products are generally received monthly or
quarterly in periods while our client holds the investment or holds the contract. As these trailing commissions are based on
factors outside of our control, including market movements and client behavior (i.e., how long clients hold their investment,
insurance policy or annuity contract), such revenue is recognized when it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur.
Equities, ETFs and fixed income products
We earn commissions for executing and clearing transactions for customers, primarily in listed and over-the-counter equity
securities, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), and options. Such revenues primarily arise from transactions for retail
clients in our PCG segment, as well as services related to sales and trading activities transacted on an agency basis in our
Capital Markets segment. Commissions are recognized on trade date, generally received from the customer on settlement date,
and we record a receivable between the trade date and the date collected from the customer.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Principal transactions
Principal transactions include revenues from clients’ purchases and sales of financial instruments, including fixed income and
equity securities and derivatives, in which we transact on a principal basis. We make markets in certain fixed income securities
and we carry inventories of financial instruments to facilitate such transactions. The gains and losses on such inventories, both
realized and unrealized, are reported as principal transactions revenues.
Account and service fees
Mutual fund and annuity service fees
We earn servicing fees for providing sales and marketing support to third-party financial entities and for supporting the
availability and distribution of their products on our platforms. We also earn servicing fees for accounting and administrative
services provided to such parties. These fees, which are received monthly or quarterly, are generally based on the market value
of the related assets, a fixed annual fee or, in certain cases, the number of positions in such programs, and are recognized over
time as the services are performed.
Raymond James Bank Deposit Program fees
We earn servicing fees from various banks for administrative services we provide related to our clients’ deposits that are swept
to such banks as part of the Raymond James Bank Deposit Program (“RJBDP”), our multi-bank sweep program. The amounts
received from third-party banks are variable in nature and fluctuate based on client cash balances in the program, as well as the
level of short-term interest rates and the interest paid to clients by the third-party banks on balances in the RJBDP. The fees are
earned over time as the related administrative services are performed and are received monthly. Our PCG segment also earns
servicing fees from our Bank segment, which is calculated as the greater of a base servicing fee or a net yield equivalent to the
average yield that the firm would otherwise receive from third-party banks in the RJBDP. These intercompany fees, and the
offsetting intercompany expense in the Bank segment, are eliminated in consolidation.
Investment banking
We earn revenue from investment banking transactions, including public and private equity and debt financing, merger &
acquisition advisory services, and other advisory services. Underwriting revenues, which are typically deducted from the
proceeds remitted to the issuer, are recognized on trade date if there is no uncertainty or contingency related to the amount to be
received. Fees from merger & acquisition and advisory assignments are generally recognized at the time the services related to
the transaction are completed under the terms of the engagement. Fees for merger & acquisition and advisory services are
typically received upfront, as non-refundable retainer fees, and/or upon completion of a transaction as a success fee. Expenses
related to investment banking transactions are generally deferred until the related revenue is recognized or the assignment is
otherwise concluded. Such expenses are included in “Professional fees” on our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income.
Cash and cash equivalents
Our cash equivalents include money market funds or highly liquid investments with maturities of 3 months or less as of our
date of purchase, other than those held for trading purposes.
Assets segregated for regulatory purposes and restricted cash
Our broker-dealers carrying client accounts are generally subject to requirements to maintain cash or qualified securities on
deposit in a segregated reserve account for the exclusive benefit of their clients. Such amounts are included in “Assets
segregated for regulatory purposes and restricted cash” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of each
respective period end. These amounts include cash and cash equivalents, which represent highly liquid investments with
maturities of 3 months or less as of our date of purchase, and highly liquid securities, such as U.S. Treasury securities (“U.S”
Treasuries”), which have maturities of greater than 3 months as of our date of purchase and are carried at fair value on our
Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
We may also from time-to-time be required to restrict cash for other corporate purposes. In addition, Raymond James Ltd. (“RJ
Ltd.”) holds client Registered Retirement Savings Plan funds in trust in accordance with Canadian retirement plan regulations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Collateralized agreements and financings
Securities purchased under agreements to resell and securities sold under agreements to repurchase
We purchase securities under short-term agreements to resell (“reverse repurchase agreements”). Additionally, we sell
securities under agreements to repurchase (“repurchase agreements”). Reverse repurchase agreements and repurchase
agreements are accounted for as collateralized agreements and collateralized financings, respectively, and are carried at
contractual amounts plus accrued interest. We receive collateral with a fair value that is typically equal to or in excess of the
principal amount loaned under reverse repurchase agreements to mitigate credit exposure. To ensure that the market value of
the underlying collateral remains sufficient, collateral values are evaluated on a daily basis, and collateral is obtained from or
returned to the counterparty when contractually required. Under repurchase agreements, we are required to post collateral in an
amount that typically exceeds the carrying value of these agreements. In the event that the market value of the securities we
pledge as collateral declines, we may have to post additional collateral or reduce borrowing amounts. Reverse repurchase
agreements and repurchase agreements are included in “Collateralized agreements” and “Collateralized financings,”
respectively, on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. See Note 7 for additional information regarding
collateralized agreements and financings.
Securities borrowed and securities loaned
We may act as an intermediary between broker-dealers and other financial institutions whereby we borrow securities from one
broker-dealer and then either lend them to another broker-dealer or use them in our broker-dealer operations to cover short
positions. Where permitted, we have also loaned, to broker-dealers and other financial institutions, securities owned by the firm
or our clients or others we have received as collateral. Securities borrowed and securities loaned transactions are accounted for
as collateralized agreements and collateralized financings, respectively, and are recorded at the amount of cash advanced or
received. In securities borrowed transactions, we are required to deposit cash with the lender in an amount which is generally in
excess of the market value of securities borrowed. With respect to securities loaned, we generally receive cash in an amount in
excess of the market value of securities loaned. We evaluate the market value of securities borrowed and loaned on a daily
basis, with additional collateral obtained or refunded as necessary. Securities borrowed and securities loaned are included in
“Collateralized agreements” and “Collateralized financings,” respectively, on our Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition. See Note 7 for additional information regarding collateralized agreements and financings.
Financial instruments, financial instrument liabilities, at fair value
“Financial instruments” and “Financial instrument liabilities” are recorded at fair value. Fair value is defined by GAAP as the
price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
In determining the fair value of our financial instruments in accordance with GAAP, we use various valuation approaches,
including market and/or income approaches. Fair value is a market-based measurement considered from the perspective of a
market participant. As such, our fair value measurements reflect assumptions that we believe market participants would use in
pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. GAAP provides for the following three levels to be used to classify our
fair value measurements.
Level 1 - Financial instruments included in Level 1 are highly liquid instruments valued using unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Financial instruments reported in Level 2 include those that have pricing inputs that are other than unadjusted
quoted prices in active markets, but which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date (i.e., prices for
similar instruments).
Level 3 - Financial instruments reported in Level 3 have little, if any, market activity and are measured using one or more
inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. These valuations require judgment or
estimation. These instruments are generally valued using discounted cash flow techniques or market multiples.
91
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
GAAP requires that we maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when performing
our fair value measurements. The availability of observable inputs can vary from instrument to instrument and, in certain cases,
the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an instrument’s
level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our
assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement of an instrument requires judgment and
consideration of factors specific to the instrument.
Valuation techniques and inputs
The fair values for certain of our financial instruments are derived using pricing models and other valuation techniques that
involve management judgment. The price transparency of financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment
involved in determining the fair value of our financial instruments. Financial instruments which are actively traded will
generally have a higher degree of price transparency than financial instruments that are less frequently traded. In accordance
with GAAP, the criteria used to determine whether the market for a financial instrument is active or inactive is based on the
particular asset or liability. For equity securities, our definition of actively traded is based on average daily trading volume.
We have determined the market for certain other types of financial instruments to be uncertain or inactive as of both
September 30, 2022 and 2021. As a result, the valuation of these financial instruments included management judgment in
determining the relevance and reliability of market information available.
The level within the fair value hierarchy, specific valuation techniques, and other significant accounting policies pertaining to
financial instruments at fair value on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition are described as follows.
Trading assets and trading liabilities
Trading assets and trading liabilities are comprised primarily of the financial instruments held by our broker-dealer subsidiaries
and include debt securities, equity securities, brokered certificates of deposit, and other financial instruments. Trading assets
and trading liabilities are recorded at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses reflected in “Principal
transactions” in current period net income.
When available, we use quoted prices in active markets to determine the fair value of our trading assets and trading liabilities.
Such instruments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
When trading instruments are traded in secondary markets and quoted market prices for identical instruments do not exist, we
utilize valuation techniques, including matrix pricing, to estimate fair value. Matrix pricing generally utilizes spread-based
models periodically re-calibrated to observable inputs such as market trades or to dealer price bids in similar securities in order
to derive the fair value of the instruments. Valuation techniques may also rely on other observable inputs such as yield curves,
interest rates and expected principal prepayments and default probabilities. We utilize prices from third-party pricing services
to corroborate our estimates of fair value. Depending upon the type of security, the pricing service may provide a listed price, a
matrix price or use other methods. Securities valued using these techniques are classified within Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy.
Within each broker-dealer subsidiary, we offset our long and short positions for identical securities recorded at fair value as part
of our trading assets (long positions) and trading liabilities (short positions).
Available-for-sale securities
Available-for-sale securities are classified at the date of purchase. They are comprised primarily of agency mortgage-backed
securities (“MBS”), agency collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), and other securities which are guaranteed by the
U.S. government or its agencies. Available-for-sale securities are used as part of our interest rate risk and liquidity management
strategies and may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risks, or other factors.
The fair values of our available-for-sale securities are determined by obtaining prices from third-party pricing services, which
are primarily based on valuation models. The third-party pricing services provide comparable price evaluations utilizing
observable market data for similar securities. Such observable market data is comprised of benchmark yields, reported trades,
broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, reference data (including market
research publications), and loan performance experience. We utilize other third-party pricing services to corroborate the pricing
information obtained from the primary pricing service. Available-for-sale securities are valued using valuation techniques that
rely on observable market data. Substantially all available-for-sale securities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy; however, certain available-sale-securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
92
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Interest on available-for-sale securities is recognized in interest income on an accrual basis, with the related accrued interest not
yet received reflected in “Other receivables” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Discounts are accreted
and premiums are amortized as an adjustment to yield over the estimated average life of the security. Realized gains and losses
on sales of available-for-sale securities are recognized using the specific identification method and are reflected in “Other”
revenue in the period sold. Unrealized gains or losses due to market factors on available-for-sale securities are recorded
through other comprehensive income/(loss) (“OCI”), net of applicable taxes, and are thereafter presented in equity as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Derivative assets and derivative liabilities
Our derivative assets and derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value and are included in “Derivative assets” and “Derivative
liabilities” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. To reduce credit exposure on certain of our derivative
transactions, we may enter into a master netting arrangement that allows for net settlement of all derivative transactions with
each counterparty within the same subsidiary. In addition, the credit support annex allows parties to the master netting
agreement to mitigate their credit risk by requiring the party which is out of the money to post collateral. Generally the
collateral we accept is in the form of either cash or other marketable securities. Where permitted, we elect to net-by-
counterparty certain derivatives entered into under a legally enforceable master netting agreement and, therefore, the fair value
of those derivatives are netted by counterparty and subsidiary on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. As we
elect to net-by-counterparty the fair value of such derivatives, we also net-by-counterparty and subsidiary cash collateral
exchanged as part of those derivative agreements. We may also require certain counterparties to make a cash deposit at the
inception of a derivative agreement, referred to as “initial margin.” This initial margin is included in “Cash and cash
equivalents” and “Other payables” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
We are also required to maintain deposits with the clearing organizations we utilize to clear certain of our interest rate
derivatives, for which we have posted securities as collateral. This initial margin is included as a component of “Other
investments” and “Available-for-sale securities” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. On a daily basis, we
also pay cash to, or receive cash from, these clearing organizations due to changes in the fair value of the derivatives which they
clear. Such payments are referred to as “variation margin” and are considered to be settlement of the related derivatives.
Interest rate derivatives
We enter into interest rate derivatives as part of our trading activities in our fixed income business to facilitate client
transactions or to actively manage risk exposures that arise from our client activity, including a portion of our trading inventory.
In addition, we enter into interest rate derivatives with clients of our Bank segment, including clients with whom we have
entered into loans or other lending arrangements, to facilitate their respective interest rate risk management strategies. The
majority of these derivatives are traded in the over-the-counter market and are executed directly with another counterparty or
are cleared and settled through a clearing organization. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on such derivatives are recorded
in “Principal transactions” on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The fair values of these
interest rate derivatives are obtained from internal or third-party pricing models that consider current market trading levels and
the contractual prices for the underlying financial instruments, as well as time value, yield curve and other volatility factors
underlying the positions. Since these model inputs can be observed in liquid markets and the models do not require significant
judgment, such derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. We corroborate the output of our internal
pricing models by preparing an independent calculation using a third-party model. Our fixed income business also holds to-be-
announced security contracts (“TBAs”) that are accounted for as derivatives, which are classified within Level 1 of the fair
value hierarchy.
We also facilitate matched book derivative transactions in which we enter into interest rate derivatives with clients. For every
matched book derivative we enter into with a client, we also enter into an offsetting derivative on terms that mirror the client
transaction with a credit support provider, which is a third-party financial institution. Any collateral required to be exchanged
under these matched book derivatives is administered directly between the client and the third-party financial institution. Due
to this pass-through transaction structure, we have completely mitigated the market and credit risk on these matched book
derivatives. As a result, matched book derivatives for which the fair value is in an asset position have an equal and offsetting
derivative liability. Fair value is determined using an internal pricing model which includes inputs from independent pricing
sources to project future cash flows under each underlying derivative. Since any changes in fair value are completely offset by
a change in fair value of the offsetting derivative, there is no net impact on our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income from changes in the fair value of these derivatives. We recognize revenue on these matched book
derivatives on the transaction date, computed as the present value of the expected cash flows we expect to receive from the
third-party financial institution over the life of the derivative. The difference between the present value of these cash flows at
93
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
the date of inception and the gross amount potentially received is accreted to revenue over the term of the contract. The
revenue from these transactions is included within “Other” revenues on our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income.
We enter into primarily floating-rate advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) to, in part, fund lending and
investing activities in our Bank segment and then enter into interest rate contracts which swap variable interest payments on
such borrowings for fixed interest payments. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and effectively fix a
portion of our Bank segment’s cost of funds and mitigate a portion of the market risk associated with its lending and investing
activities. The gain or loss on our Bank segment’s cash flow hedges is recorded, net of tax, in shareholders’ equity as part of
the cash flow hedge component of AOCI and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects
earnings, specifically upon the incurrence of interest expense on the hedged borrowings. Hedge effectiveness is assessed at
inception and at each reporting period utilizing regression analysis. As the key terms of the hedging instrument and hedged
transaction match at inception, management expects the hedges to be effective while they are outstanding. The fair value of
these interest rate swaps is determined by obtaining valuations from a third-party pricing service. These third-party valuations
are based on observable inputs such as time value and yield curves. We validate these observable inputs by preparing an
independent calculation using a secondary model. Cash flows from hedging activities are included in the same category as the
items being hedged. Cash flows from derivative instruments used to manage interest rates are classified as operating activities.
We classify these derivatives within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Foreign-exchange derivatives
We enter into three-month forward foreign exchange contracts primarily to hedge the risks related to Raymond James Bank’s
investment in its Canadian subsidiary, as well as its risk resulting from transactions denominated in currencies other than the
U.S. dollar. The majority of these derivatives are designated as net investment hedges. The gain or loss related to these
designated net investment hedges is recorded, net of tax, in shareholders’ equity as part of the cumulative translation adjustment
component of AOCI with such balance impacting “Other” revenues in the event the net investment is sold or substantially
liquidated. Gains and losses on undesignated derivative instruments are recorded in “Other” revenues on our Consolidated
Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Hedge effectiveness is assessed at each reporting period using a method
that is based on changes in forward rates and measured using the hypothetical derivatives method. As the terms of the hedging
instrument and hypothetical derivative generally match at inception, the hedge is expected to be highly effective.
The fair values of our forward foreign exchange contracts are determined by obtaining valuations from a third-party pricing
service or model. These valuations are based on observable inputs such as spot rates, forward foreign exchange rates and both
U.S. and foreign interest rate curves. We validate the observable inputs utilized in the third-party valuation model by preparing
an independent calculation using a secondary valuation model. These forward foreign exchange contracts are classified within
Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Other investments
Other investments consist primarily of private equity investments, securities pledged as collateral with clearing organizations,
and term deposits with Canadian financial institutions. Our securities pledged as collateral with clearing organizations, which
primarily include U.S. Treasuries, and term deposits are categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Private equity investments consist primarily of investments in third-party private equity funds. The private equity funds in
which we invest are primarily closed-end funds in which our investments are generally not eligible for redemption. We receive
distributions from these funds as the underlying assets are liquidated or distributed. These investments are measured at fair
value with any gains or losses recognized in “Other” revenues on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive
Income. The fair value of substantially all of our private equity investments are determined utilizing the net asset value
(“NAV”) of the fund as a practical expedient with the remainder utilizing Level 3 valuation techniques.
Fractional shares
Within our broker-dealer subsidiaries, when dividend reinvestment programs or other corporate action events result in clients
receiving a share quantity that is not a whole number, we transact in the fractional shares on a principal basis. We include these
fractional shares in “Other assets” in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and record an associated liability to
the client in “Other payables” as we must fulfill our clients’ future fractional share redemptions. We account for the fractional
share assets and the liability to the client at fair value. The fair values of the fractional share assets and liabilities are
determined based on quoted prices in active markets and are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Brokerage client receivables, net
Brokerage client receivables include receivables from the clients of our broker-dealer subsidiaries and are principally for
amounts due on cash and margin transactions. Such receivables are generally collateralized by securities owned by the clients.
Brokerage client receivables are reported at their outstanding principal balance, net of any allowance for credit losses. See the
“Allowance for credit losses” section below for a discussion of our application of the practical expedient under the current
expected credit losses (“CECL”) guidance for financial assets secured by collateral.
Securities beneficially owned by clients, including those that collateralize margin or other similar transactions, are not reflected
on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition (see Note 7 for additional information regarding this collateral).
Other receivables, net
Other receivables primarily include receivables from brokers, dealers and clearing organizations, accrued fees from product
sponsors, and accrued interest receivables. Receivables from brokers, dealers and clearing organizations primarily consist of
cash deposits placed with clearing organizations, which includes cash deposited as initial margin, as well as receivables related
to sales of securities which have traded but not yet settled including amounts receivable for securities failed to deliver.
We present “Other receivables, net” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, net of any allowance for credit
losses. However, these receivables generally have minimal credit risk due to the low probability of clearing organization
default and the short-term nature of receivables related to securities settlements and therefore, the allowance for credit losses on
such receivables is not significant. Any allowance for credit losses for other receivables is estimated using assumptions based
on historical experience, current facts and other factors. We update these estimates through periodic evaluations against actual
trends experienced.
We include accrued interest receivables related to our financial assets in “Other receivables, net” on the Consolidated
Statements of Financial Condition. We reverse any uncollectible accrued interest against interest income when the related
financial asset is moved to nonaccrual status. Given that we write off uncollectible amounts in a timely manner, we do not
recognize an allowance for credit losses against accrued interest receivable.
Bank loans, net
Loans held for investment
Bank loans are comprised of loans originated or purchased by our Bank segment and include securities-based loans (“SBL”),
commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loans, real estate investment trust (“REIT”) loans, tax-exempt loans, and commercial and
residential real estate loans. Other than the loans acquired in the TriState Capital acquisition which were recorded at
acquisition-date fair value (see Note 3 for additional information), the loans which we have the intent and the ability to hold
until maturity or payoff are recorded at their unpaid principal balance plus any premium paid in connection with the purchase of
the loan or less any discounts received in connection with the purchase of the loan, less the allowance for credit losses and net
of deferred fees and costs on originated loans. Loan origination fees and direct costs, as well as premiums and discounts on
loans that are not revolving, are capitalized and recognized in interest income using the effective interest method, taking into
consideration scheduled payments and prepayments. Loan discounts include fair value adjustments associated with our
acquisition of TriState Capital Bank totaled $145 million as of June 1, 2022 and will be accreted into interest income over the
weighted-average life of the underlying loans, estimated to approximate 4 years as of the acquisition date, which may vary
based on prepayments. For revolving loans, the straight-line method is used based on the contractual term. Syndicated loans
purchased in the secondary market are recorded on the trade date. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis.
We segregate our loan portfolio into six loan portfolio segments: SBL, C&I, commercial real estate (“CRE”) (primarily loans
that are secured by income-producing properties and CRE construction loans), REIT (loans made to businesses that own or
finance income-producing real estate), residential mortgage, and tax-exempt. Loans in our SBL portfolio segment are primarily
collateralized by the borrower’s marketable securities at advance rates consistent with industry standards and, to a lesser extent,
the cash surrender value of any applicable life insurance policies. These portfolio segments also serve as the portfolio loan
classes for purposes of credit analysis. See the “Allowance for credit losses” section below for information on our allowance
policies.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Loans held for sale
Certain residential mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market due to their fixed interest rate terms,
as well as Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans which we may purchase with intent to sell in the secondary market, as
part of a securitization as discussed below, but have not yet been aggregated for securitization into pools, are each carried at the
lower of cost or estimated fair value. The fair values of the residential mortgage loans held for sale are estimated using
observable prices obtained from counterparties for similar loans. These nonrecurring fair value measurements are classified
within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
We purchase the guaranteed portions of SBA loans and account for these loans in accordance with the policy for loans held for
sale. We then aggregate SBA loans with similar characteristics into pools for securitization and sell these pools in the
secondary market. Individual SBA loans may be sold prior to securitization. The fair values of the SBA loans are determined
based upon their committed sales price, third-party price quotes, or are determined using a third-party pricing service.
Once the SBA loans are securitized into a pool, the respective securities are classified as trading instruments based on our
intention to sell the securitizations and are carried at fair value. Sales of the securitizations are accounted for as of settlement
date, which is the date we have surrendered control over the transferred assets. We do not retain any interest in the
securitizations once they are sold.
Corporate loans, which include C&I, CRE and REIT loans, as well as tax-exempt loans are designated as held for investment
upon inception and recorded in loans receivable. If we subsequently designate a corporate or tax-exempt loan as held for sale,
which generally occurs as part of our credit management activities, we then write down the carrying value of the loan with a
partial charge-off, if necessary, to carry it at the lower of cost or estimated fair value.
Gains and losses on sales of residential mortgage loans held for sale, SBA loans that are not part of a securitized pool, and
corporate loans transferred from the held for investment portfolio, are included as a component of “Other” revenues on our
Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, while interest collected on these assets is included in “Interest
income.” Net unrealized losses are a component of “Other” revenues on our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income.
Unfunded lending commitments
We have outstanding at any time a significant number of commitments to extend credit and other credit-related off-balance-
sheet financial instruments such as revolving lines of credit, standby letters of credit and loan purchases. Our policy is
generally to require customers to provide collateral at the time of closing. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed
necessary upon extension of credit, is based on our credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include
assets such as marketable securities, accounts receivable, inventory, real estate, and income-producing commercial properties.
In the normal course of business, we issue or participate in the issuance of standby letters of credit whereby we provide an
irrevocable guarantee of payment in the event the letter of credit is drawn down by the beneficiary. These standby letters of
credit generally expire in one year or less. In the event that a letter of credit is drawn down, we would pursue repayment from
the party under the existing borrowing relationship or would liquidate collateral, or both. The proceeds from repayment or
liquidation of collateral are expected to satisfy the amounts drawn down under the existing letters of credit.
The allowance for potential credit losses associated with these unfunded lending commitments is included in “Other payables”
on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Refer to the “Allowance for credit losses” section that follows for a
discussion of the reserve calculation methodology and Note 19 for further information about these commitments.
We recognize the revenue associated with corporate syndicated standby letters of credit, which is generally received quarterly,
on a cash basis, the effect of which does not differ significantly from recognizing the revenue in the period the fee is earned.
Unused corporate line of credit fees are accounted for on an accrual basis.
Nonperforming assets
Nonperforming assets are comprised of both nonperforming loans and other real estate owned. Nonperforming loans include
those loans which have been placed on nonaccrual status and certain accruing loans which are 90 days or more past due and in
the process of collection. Loans which have been restructured in a manner that grants a concession that would not normally be
granted to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties are deemed to be troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”). Loans
structured as TDRs which are placed on nonaccrual status are considered nonperforming loans.
96
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Loans of all classes are generally placed on nonaccrual status when we determine that full payment of all contractual principal
and interest is in doubt or the loan is past due 90 days or more as to contractual interest or principal unless the loan, in our
opinion, is well-secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued and unpaid
interest receivable is written-off against interest income and accretion of the net deferred loan origination fees ceases. Interest
is recognized using the cash method for SBL and substantially all residential mortgage loans, and the cost recovery method for
corporate and tax-exempt loans thereafter until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. Most loans (including residential
mortgage TDRs) are returned to an accrual status when the loans have been brought contractually current with the original or
amended terms and have been maintained on a current basis for a reasonable period, generally six months. However, corporate
loan TDRs have generally been partially charged off and therefore remain on nonaccrual status until the loan is fully repaid or
sold.
Other real estate acquired in the settlement of loans, including through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure, is initially recorded at the
lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs through a charge to the allowance for credit losses, thus establishing a
new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed and the assets are carried at the lower of the
carrying amount or fair value, as determined by a current appraisal or discounted cash flow valuation less estimated costs to
sell, and are included in “Other assets” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. These nonrecurring fair value
measurements are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Bank loan charge-off policies
Corporate and tax-exempt loans are monitored on an individual basis, and loan grades are reviewed at least quarterly to ensure
they reflect the loan’s current credit risk. When we determine that it is likely that a corporate or tax-exempt loan will not be
collected in full, the loan is evaluated for a potential write down of the carrying value. After consideration of a number of
factors, including the borrower’s ability to restructure the loan, alternative sources of repayment, and other factors affecting the
borrower’s ability to repay the debt, the portion of the loan deemed to be a confirmed loss, if any, is charged-off. For collateral-
dependent loans secured by real estate, the amount of the loan considered a confirmed loss and charged-off is generally equal to
the difference between the recorded investment in the loan and the collateral’s appraised value less estimated costs to sell. For
C&I and tax-exempt loans, we evaluate all sources of repayment to arrive at the amount considered to be a loss and charged-off.
Corporate banking and credit risk managers also meet regularly to review criticized loans (i.e., loans that are rated special
mention or worse as defined by bank regulators). Additional charge-offs are taken when the value of the collateral changes or
there is an adverse change in the expected cash flows.
A portion of our corporate loan portfolio is comprised of participations in either Shared National Credits (“SNCs”) or other
large syndicated loans in the U.S. and Canada. The SNCs are U.S. loan syndications totaling over $100 million that are shared
between three or more regulated institutions. The agent bank’s regulator reviews a portion of SNC loans on a semi-annual basis
and provides a synopsis of each loan’s regulatory classification, including loans that are designated for nonaccrual status and
directed charge-offs. We are at least as critical with our nonaccrual designations, directed charge-offs, and classifications,
potentially impacting our allowance for credit losses and charge-offs. Corporate loans are subject to our internal review
procedures and regulatory review by either the Florida Office of Financial Regulation (“OFR”) and the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System (“the Fed”) or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Pennsylvania
Department of Banking and Securities (“PDBS”) as part of our respective banks’ regulatory examinations.
Substantially all residential mortgage loans over 60 days past due are reviewed to determine loan status, collection strategy and
charge-off recommendations. Charge-offs are typically considered on residential mortgage loans once the loans are delinquent
90 days or more and then generally taken before the loan is 120 days past due. A charge-off is taken against the allowance for
credit losses for the difference between the loan amount and the amount that we estimate will ultimately be collected, based on
the value of the underlying collateral less estimated costs to sell. We predominantly use broker price opinions for these
valuations. If a loan remains in pre-foreclosure status for more than nine months, an updated valuation is obtained to determine
if further charge-offs are necessary.
Loans to financial advisors, net
We offer loans to financial advisors for recruiting and retention purposes. The decision to extend credit to a financial advisor is
generally based on their ability to generate future revenues. Loans offered are generally repaid over a five to ten year period,
with interest recognized as earned, and are contingent upon continued affiliation with us. These loans are not assignable by the
financial advisor and may only be assigned by us to a successor in interest. There is no fee income associated with these loans.
In the event that the financial advisor is no longer affiliated with us, any unpaid balance of such loan becomes immediately due
and payable to us and generally does not continue to accrue interest. Based upon the nature of these financing receivables,
97
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
affiliation status (i.e., whether the advisor is actively affiliated with us or has terminated affiliation with us) is the primary credit
risk factor within this portfolio. We present the outstanding balance of loans to financial advisors on our Consolidated
Statements of Financial Condition, net of the allowance for credit losses. Refer to the allowance for credit losses section that
follows for further information related to our allowance for credit losses on our loans to financial advisors. See Note 9 for
additional information on our loans to financial advisors.
Loans to financial advisors who are actively affiliated with us are considered past due once they are 30 days or more delinquent
as to the payment of contractual interest or principal. Such loans are placed on nonaccrual status when we determine that full
payment of contractual principal and interest is in doubt, or the loan is past due 180 days or more as to contractual interest or
principal. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued and unpaid interest receivable is written-off against interest
income. Interest is recognized using the cash method for these loans thereafter until the loan qualifies for return to accrual
status. Loans are returned to an accrual status when the loans have been brought contractually current with the original terms
and have been maintained on a current basis for a reasonable period, generally six months.
When we determine that it is likely a loan will not be collected in full, the loan is evaluated for a potential write down of the
carrying value. After consideration of the borrower’s ability to restructure the loan, sources of repayment, and other factors
affecting the borrower’s ability to repay the debt, the portion of the loan deemed a confirmed loss, if any, is charged-off. A
charge-off is taken against the allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost and the amount we
estimate will ultimately be collected. Additional charge-offs are taken if there is an adverse change in the expected cash flows.
Allowance for credit losses
We evaluate our held for investment bank loans, unfunded lending commitments, loans to financial advisors and certain other
financial assets to estimate an allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) over the remaining life of the financial instrument. The
remaining life of our financial assets is determined by considering contractual terms and expected prepayments, among other
factors.
We use multiple methodologies in estimating an allowance for credit losses and our approaches may differ by the subsidiary
which holds the asset, the type of financial asset and the risk characteristics within each financial asset type. Our estimates are
based on ongoing evaluations of the portfolio, the related credit risk characteristics, and the overall economic and
environmental conditions affecting the financial assets. For certain of our financial assets with collateral maintenance
provisions (e.g., SBL, collateralized agreements, and margin loans), we apply the practical expedient allowed under the CECL
guidance in estimating an allowance for credit losses. We reasonably expect that borrowers (or counterparties, as applicable)
will replenish the collateral as required. As a result, we estimate zero credit losses to the extent that the fair value equals or
exceeds the related carrying value of the financial asset. When the fair value of the collateral securing the financial asset is less
than the carrying value, qualitative factors such as historical experience (adjusted for current risk characteristics and economic
conditions) as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts are considered in estimating the allowance for credit losses on the
unsecured portion of the financial asset.
Credit losses are charged-off against the allowance when we believe the uncollectibility of the financial asset is confirmed.
Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance once received. A credit loss expense, or benefit, is recorded in
earnings in an amount necessary to adjust the allowance for credit losses to our estimate as of the end of each reporting period.
Our provision or benefit for credit losses for outstanding bank loans is included in “Bank loan provision/(benefit) for credit
losses” on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income and our provision or benefit for credit losses for
all other financing receivables, including loans to financial advisors, and unfunded lending commitments, is included in “Other”
expense.
Loans
We generally estimate the allowance for credit losses on our loan portfolios using credit risk models which incorporate relevant
available information from internal and external sources relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and
supportable economic forecasts. After testing the reasonableness of a variety of economic forecast scenarios, each model is run
using a single forecast scenario selected for such model. Our forecasts incorporate assumptions related to macroeconomic
indicators including, but not limited to, U.S. gross domestic product (“GDP”), equity market indices, unemployment rates, and
commercial real estate and residential home price indices. At the conclusion of our reasonable and supportable forecast period,
which currently ranges from two to four years depending on the model and macroeconomic variables, we generally use a
straight-line reversion approach over a one-year period, where applicable, to revert to historical loss information for C&I, REIT
and tax-exempt loans. For CRE and residential mortgage loans, we incorporate a reasonable and supportable forecast of
various macroeconomic variables over the remaining life of the assets. The development of the forecast used for CRE and
98
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
residential mortgage loans incorporates an assumption that each macroeconomic variable will revert to a long-term expectation
starting in years two to four of the forecast and largely completing within the first five years of the forecast. We assess the
length of the reasonable and supportable forecast period and the reversion period, our reversion approach, our economic
forecasts and our methodology for estimating the historical loss information on a quarterly basis.
The allowance for credit losses on loans is generally evaluated and measured on a collective basis, based on the subsidiary
which holds the asset, and then typically by loan portfolio segment, due to similar risk characteristics. When a loan does not
share similar risk characteristics with other loans, the loan is evaluated for credit losses on an individual basis. Various risk
characteristics are considered when determining whether the loan should be collectively evaluated including, but not limited to,
financial asset type, internal risk ratings, collateral type, industry of the borrower, and historical or expected credit loss patterns.
The allowance for credit losses on collectively evaluated loans for each respective bank is comprised of two components: (a) a
quantitative allowance; and (b) a qualitative allowance, which is based on an analysis of model limitations and other factors not
considered by the quantitative models. There are several factors considered in estimating the quantitative allowance for credit
losses on collectively evaluated loans which generally include, but are not limited to, the internal risk rating, historical loss
experience (including adjustments due to current risk characteristics and economic conditions), prepayments, borrower-
controlled extensions, and expected recoveries. We use third-party data for historical information on collectively evaluated
corporate loans (C&I, CRE and REIT loans) and residential mortgage loans.
The qualitative portion of our allowance for credit losses includes certain factors that are not incorporated into the quantitative
estimate and would generally require adjustments to the allowance for credit losses. These qualitative factors are intended to
address developing trends related to each portfolio segment and would generally include, but are not limited to: changes in
lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection; our loan review process; volume
and severity of delinquent loans; changes in the seasoning of the loan portfolio and the nature, volume and terms of loans; loan
diversification and credit concentrations; changes in the value of underlying collateral; changes in legal and regulatory
environments; local, regional, national and international economic conditions, or recent catastrophic events not already reflected
in the quantitative estimate; and the routine time delay between when economic data is gathered, analyzed and distributed by
our service providers and current macroeconomic developments.
Held for investment bank loans
Raymond James Bank: The allowance for credit losses for the C&I, CRE, REIT, residential mortgage, and tax-exempt portfolio
segments is estimated using credit risk models that project a probability of default (“PD”), which is then multiplied by the loss
given default (“LGD”) and the estimated exposure at default (“EAD”) at the loan-level for every period remaining in the loan’s
expected life, including the maturity period. Historical information, combined with macroeconomic variables, are used in
estimating the PD, LGD and EAD. Our credit risk models consider several factors when estimating the expected credit losses
which may include, but are not limited to, financial performance and position, estimated prepayments, geographic location,
industry or sector type, debt type, loan size, capital structure, initial risk levels and the economic outlook. Additional factors
considered by the residential mortgage model include Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) scores and loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratios.
TriState Capital Bank: The allowance for credit losses utilizes a lifetime or cumulative loss rate methodology, which identifies
macroeconomic factors and asset-specific characteristics correlated with credit loss experience including loan age, loan type,
and leverage. The lifetime loss rate is applied to the amortized cost of the loan and builds on default and recovery probabilities
by utilizing pool-specific historical loss rates. These pool-specific historical loss rates may be adjusted for forecasted
macroeconomic variables and other factors such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or when historical asset
terms do not reflect the contractual terms of the financial assets. Each quarter, the relevancy of historical loss information is
assessed and management considers any necessary adjustments. Loss rates are based on historical averages for each loan pool,
adjusted to reflect the impact of a single, forward-looking forecast of certain macroeconomic variables such as GDP,
unemployment rates, corporate bond credit spreads and commercial property values, which management considers to be both
reasonable and supportable.
See Note 8 for further information about our bank loans, including credit quality indicators considered in developing the
allowance for credit losses.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Unfunded lending commitments
We estimate credit losses on unfunded lending commitments using a methodology consistent with that used in the
corresponding bank loan portfolio segment and also based on the expected funding probabilities for fully binding commitments.
As a result, the allowance for credit losses for unfunded lending commitments will vary depending upon the mix of lending
commitments and future funding expectations. All classes of individually evaluated unfunded lending commitments are
analyzed in conjunction with the specific allowance process previously described.
Loans to financial advisors
The allowance for credit losses on loans to financial advisors is estimated using credit risk models that incorporate average
annual loan-level loss rates and estimated prepayments based on historical data. The qualitative component of our estimate
considers internal and external factors that are not incorporated into the quantitative estimate such as the reasonable and
supportable forecast period. In estimating an allowance for credit losses on our individually-evaluated loans to financial
advisors, we generally take into account the affiliation status of the financial advisor (i.e., whether the advisor is actively
affiliated with us or has terminated affiliation with us), the borrower’s ability to restructure the loan, sources of repayment, and
other factors affecting the borrower’s ability to repay the debt.
Available-for-sale securities
Credit losses on available-for-sale securities are limited to the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis, or for the
securities acquired in the TriState Capital acquisition, the fair value of such securities on the acquisition date, and its fair value
on the reporting date. Credit losses, if any, are recognized through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a direct
reduction in amortized cost basis or the acquisition date fair value, as applicable. We expect zero credit losses on the portion of
our available-for-sale securities portfolio that is comprised of U.S. government and government agency-backed securities and
the related accrued interest receivable for which payments of both principal and interest are guaranteed, and for which we have
not historically experienced any credit losses. In addition, we have the ability and intent to hold these securities and unrealized
losses related to these available-for-sale securities are generally due to changes in market interest rates. On a quarterly basis,
we reassess our expectation of zero credit losses on such securities, giving consideration to any relevant changes in the
securities or the issuer.
On a quarterly basis, we also evaluate non-agency-backed available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position for
expected credit losses. We first determine whether it is more likely than not that we will sell the impaired securities, giving
consideration to current and forecasted liquidity requirements, regulatory and capital requirements, and our securities portfolio
management. If it is more likely than not that we will sell an available-for-sale security with a fair value below amortized cost
before recovery, the security’s book basis is written down to fair value through earnings. For available-for-sale debt securities
that it is more likely than not that we will not sell before recovery, a provision for credit losses is recorded through earnings for
the amount of the valuation decline below book basis that is attributable to credit losses. We consider the extent to which fair
value is less than amortized cost, credit ratings and other factors related to the security in assessing whether a credit loss exists,
and we measure the credit loss by comparing the present value of cash flows expected to be collected to the book basis of the
security limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the book basis. The remaining difference between the security’s
fair value and its book basis (that is, the decline in fair value not attributable to credit losses) is recognized in other
comprehensive income on an after-tax basis. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as provisions for credit
losses. Losses are charged against the allowance when we believe the security is uncollectible or we intend to sell the security.
At September 30, 2022, based on our assessment of those securities not guaranteed by the U.S government or its agencies, we
recognized an insignificant allowance for credit losses.
Identifiable intangible assets, net
Certain identifiable intangible assets we acquire such as those related to customer relationships, core deposits, developed
technology, trade names and non-compete agreements, are amortized over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis
and are evaluated for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying value of an
asset or asset group may not be fully recoverable. Amortization expense related to our identifiable intangible assets is included
in “Other” expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. See Note 3 for further
information on our intangible assets resulting from recent acquisitions.
We also hold indefinite-lived identifiable intangible assets, which are not amortized. Rather, these assets are subject to an
evaluation of potential impairment on an annual basis to determine whether the estimated fair value is in excess of its carrying
value, or between annual impairment evaluation dates, if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. In the
100
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
course of our evaluation of the potential impairment of such indefinite-lived assets, we may elect either a qualitative or a
quantitative assessment. If after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, we determine it is more likely than not that
the fair value is greater than its carrying amount, we are not required to perform a quantitative impairment analysis. However,
if we conclude otherwise, we then perform a quantitative impairment analysis. We have elected January 1 as our annual
impairment evaluation date, evaluating balances as of December 31. See Note 11 for additional information regarding the
outcome of our impairment assessment.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the cost of acquired businesses in excess of the fair value of the related net assets acquired. Indefinite-
lived intangible assets such as goodwill are not amortized, but rather evaluated for impairment at least annually, or between
annual impairment evaluation dates whenever events or circumstances indicate potential impairment exists. Impairment exists
when the carrying value of a reporting unit, which is generally at the level of or one level below our business segments, exceeds
its respective fair value.
In the course of our evaluation of a potential impairment to goodwill, we may elect either a qualitative or a quantitative
assessment. Our qualitative assessments consider macroeconomic indicators, such as trends in equity and fixed income
markets, GDP, labor markets, interest rates, and housing markets. We also consider regulatory changes, reporting unit specific
results, and changes in key personnel and strategy. Changes in these indicators, and our ability to respond to such changes, may
trigger the need for impairment testing at a point other than our annual assessment date. We assess these, and other, qualitative
factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value
of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If we determine it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting
unit is greater than its carrying amount, then performing a quantitative impairment analysis is not required. However, if we
conclude otherwise, we then perform a quantitative impairment analysis. Alternatively, if we elect not to perform a qualitative
assessment, we perform a quantitative evaluation.
In the event of a quantitative assessment, we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit with which the goodwill is associated
and compare it to the carrying value. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units using an income approach based on a
discounted cash flow model that includes significant assumptions about future operating results and cash flows and, if
appropriate, a market approach. If the carrying value of a reporting unit is greater than the estimated fair value, an impairment
charge is recognized for the excess.
We have elected January 1 as our annual goodwill impairment evaluation date, evaluating balances as of December 31. See
Note 11 for additional information regarding the outcome of our goodwill impairment assessments.
Other assets
Other assets is primarily comprised of investments in company-owned life insurance, property and equipment, net, right-of-use
assets (“ROU assets”) associated with leases, prepaid expenses, FHLB stock, Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) stock, investments
in real estate partnerships held by consolidated VIEs, and certain investments held in our Bank segment. See Note 12 for
further information. Other assets also includes client fractional shares for which we act in a principal capacity. See our
fractional shares policy above for further information.
We maintain investments in company-owned life insurance policies utilized to indirectly fund certain non-qualified deferred
compensation plans and other employee benefit plans (see Note 23 for information on the non-qualified deferred compensation
plans). These life insurance policies are recorded at cash surrender value as determined by the insurer.
Ownership of FHLB and FRB stock is a requirement for all banks seeking membership into and access to the services provided
by these banking systems. These investments are carried at cost.
Raymond James Affordable Housing Investments, Inc. (“RJAHI”) (formerly Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc.) a wholly-
owned subsidiary of RJF, or one of its affiliates, acts as the managing member or general partner in Low-Income Housing Tax
Credit (“LIHTC”) funds and other funds of a similar nature, some of which require consolidation. These funds invest in
housing project limited partnerships or limited liability companies (“LLCs”) which purchase and develop affordable housing
properties generally qualifying for federal and state low-income housing tax credits and/or provide a mechanism for banks and
other institutions to meet certain regulatory obligations. The investments in project partnerships of all of the LIHTC fund VIEs
which require consolidation are included in “Other assets” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Our Bank segment holds investments which deliver tax benefits, including in LIHTC funds, some of which are managed by
RJAHI. We have determined that LIHTC funds managed by RJAHI are VIEs. See additional discussion in this Note 2
regarding our evaluation and conclusions around consolidation of such VIEs. These investments are included in “Other assets”
on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. See the “Income taxes” section of this Note 2 for a discussion of our
accounting for investments which qualify for tax credits.
Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and software amortization. Property and equipment
primarily consists of software, buildings, certain leasehold improvements, and furniture. Software includes both purchased
software and internally developed software that has been placed in service, including certain software projects where
development is in progress. Buildings primarily consists of owned facilities. Leasehold improvements are generally costs
associated with lessee-owned interior office space improvements. Equipment primarily consists of communications and
technology hardware. Depreciation of assets (other than land) is primarily calculated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets, within ranges outlined in the following table.
Asset type
Buildings, building components and land improvements
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
Software
Leasehold improvements (lessee-owned)
Estimated useful life
15 to 40 years
3 to 5 years
2 to 10 years
Lesser of useful life or lease term
Costs for significant internally developed software projects are capitalized when the costs relate to development of new
applications or modification of existing internal-use software that results in additional functionality. Internally developed
software project costs related to preliminary-project and post-project activities are expensed as incurred.
Additions, improvements and expenditures that extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and
maintenance, as well as all maintenance costs associated with software applications, are expensed in the period incurred.
Depreciation expense associated with property and equipment is included in “Occupancy and equipment” expense on our
Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Amortization expense associated with computer software is
included in “Communications and information processing” expense on our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income. Gains and losses on disposals of property and equipment are included in “Other” revenues on our
Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income in the period of disposal. See Note 13 for additional
information regarding our property and equipment.
Leases
We have operating leases for the premises we occupy in many of our U.S. and foreign locations, including our employee-based
branch office operations. At inception, we determine if an arrangement to utilize a building or piece of equipment is a lease
and, if so, the appropriate lease classification. Substantially all of our leases are operating leases. If the arrangement is
determined to be a lease, we recognize a ROU asset in “Other assets” and a corresponding lease liability in “Other payables” on
our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease
term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. We elected the practical
expedient, where leases with an initial or acquired term of 12 months or less are not recorded as an ROU asset or lease liability.
Our lease terms include any noncancelable periods and may reflect periods covered by options to extend or terminate when it is
reasonably certain that we will exercise those options.
We record our lease ROU assets at the amount of the lease liability plus any prepaid rent, amounts paid for lessor-owned
leasehold improvements, and initial direct costs, less any lease incentives and accrued rent. We record lease liabilities at
commencement date (or acquisition date, for leases assumed through acquisitions) based on the present value of lease payments
over the lease term, which is discounted using our commencement date or acquisition date incremental borrowing rate, or at the
imputed rate within the lease, as appropriate. Our incremental borrowing rate considers the weighted-average yields on our
senior notes payable, adjusted for collateralization and tenor. Payments that vary because of changes in facts or circumstances
occurring after the commencement date, such as operating expense payments under a real estate lease, are considered variable
and are expensed in the period incurred. For our real estate leases, we elected the practical expedient to account for the lease
and non-lease components as a single lease. Lease expense for our lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the lease term if the ROU asset has not been impaired or abandoned. See Note 14 for additional information on our leases.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Bank deposits
Bank deposits include money market accounts, savings accounts, interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing checking accounts,
and certificates of deposit held at Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank. Raymond James Bank deposits are
substantially comprised of deposits that are swept from the investment accounts of PCG clients through the RJBDP. TriState
Capital Bank’s deposits are generally comprised of money market and savings accounts and interest-bearing checking accounts.
Deposits are stated at the principal amount outstanding. Interest on deposits is accrued and charged to interest expense daily
and is paid or credited in accordance with the terms of the respective accounts. The interest rates on the vast majority of our
deposits are determined based on market rates and, in certain cases, may be linked to an index, such as the effective federal
funds rate. For additional detail regarding deposits, see Note 15.
Contingent liabilities
We recognize liabilities for contingencies when there is an exposure that, when fully analyzed, indicates it is both probable that
a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Whether a loss is probable, and if so, the
estimated range of possible loss, is based upon currently available information and is subject to significant judgment, a variety
of assumptions, and uncertainties. When a loss is probable and a range of possible loss can be estimated, we accrue the most
likely amount within that range; if the most likely amount of possible loss within that range is not determinable, the minimum
amount in the range of loss is accrued. No liability is recognized for those matters which, in management’s judgment, the
determination of a reasonable estimate of loss is not possible, or for which a loss is not determined to be probable.
We record liabilities related to legal and regulatory proceedings in “Other payables” on our Consolidated Statements of
Financial Condition. The determination of these liability amounts requires significant judgment on the part of management.
Management considers many factors including, but not limited to: the amount of the claim; the amount of the loss in the client’s
account; the basis and validity of the claim; the possibility of wrongdoing on the part of one of our employees or financial
advisors; previous results in similar cases; and legal precedents and case law. Each legal proceeding or significant regulatory
matter is reviewed in each accounting period and the liability balance is adjusted as deemed appropriate by management. Any
change in the liability amount is recorded through “Other” expense on our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income in that period. The actual costs of resolving legal matters or regulatory proceedings may be
substantially higher or lower than the recorded liability amounts for such matters. Our costs of defense related to such matters
are expensed in the period they are incurred. Such defense costs are primarily related to external legal fees which are included
within “Professional fees” on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. See Note 19 for additional
information.
Share-based compensation
We account for the compensation cost related to share-based payment awards made to employees, directors, and independent
contractors based on the estimated fair values of the awards on the date of grant. The compensation cost of our share-based
awards, net of estimated forfeitures, is amortized over the requisite service period of the awards. Share-based compensation
amortization is included in “Compensation, commissions and benefits” expense on our Consolidated Statements of Income and
Comprehensive Income. See Note 23 for additional information on our share-based compensation plan.
Deferred compensation plans
We maintain various deferred compensation plans for the benefit of certain employees and independent contractors that provide
a return to the participant based upon the performance of various referenced investments. For the Voluntary Deferred
Compensation Plan (“VDCP”), Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”), and certain other plans, we purchase and hold company-
owned life insurance policies on the lives of certain current and former participants to earn a competitive rate of return for
participants and to provide a source of funds available to satisfy our obligations under the plan. See Note 12 for information
regarding the carrying value of such policies. Compensation expense is recognized for all awards made under such plans with
future service requirements over the requisite service period using the straight-line method. Changes in the value of the
company-owned life insurance policies, as well as the expenses associated with the related deferred compensation plans, are
recorded in “Compensation, commissions and benefits” expense on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive
Income. See Note 23 for additional information.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Foreign currency translation
The statements of financial condition of the foreign subsidiaries we consolidate are translated at exchange rates as of the period-
end. The statements of income are translated either at an average exchange rate for the period or, in certain cases, at the
exchange rate in effect on the date which transactions occur. The gains or losses resulting from translating foreign currency
financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in OCI and are thereafter presented in equity as a component of AOCI.
Gains and losses relating to transactions in currencies other than the respective subsidiaries’ functional currency are reported in
“Other” revenues in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
Income taxes
The objective of accounting for income taxes is to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year. We
utilize the asset and liability method to provide for income taxes on all transactions recorded in our consolidated financial
statements. This method requires that income taxes reflect the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities for book and tax purposes. Accordingly, a deferred tax asset or liability for
each temporary difference is determined based on the tax rates that we expect to be in effect when the underlying items of
income and expense are realized. Our net deferred tax assets and net deferred tax liabilities presented on the financial
statements are based upon the jurisdictional footprint of the firm. We consider our major jurisdictions for disclosure purposes
to be federal, state, Canada, and the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences
of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns, including the repatriation of undistributed
earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Variations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact our
financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. See Note 18 for further information on our income taxes.
We hold investments in certain LIHTC and other funds which deliver tax benefits. For those investments in LIHTC funds that
qualify for application of the proportional amortization method, we apply such method. Under the proportional amortization
method, the LIHTC investment is amortized in proportion to the allocation of tax credits received in each period, and the
investment amortization and the tax credits are presented on a net basis within “Provision for income taxes” in our Consolidated
Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Where our LIHTC investments do not qualify for such treatment, we
account for such LIHTC and other fund investments under the equity method, with any losses recorded in “Other” expenses.
The federal tax credits that result from these investments reduce our provision for income taxes in the year the investment’s
activity is included in our taxable income. As a result, inclusion of these credits may not align to the period in which we
recognize the losses on the related investments in our financial statements.
Earnings per share (“EPS”)
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares
outstanding. Earnings attributable to common shareholders represents net income reduced by preferred stock dividends as well
as the allocation of earnings and dividends to participating securities. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS, but adjusts for the
dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), and certain restricted stock units (“RSUs”) by
application of the treasury stock method.
Evaluation of VIEs to determine whether consolidation is required
A VIE requires consolidation by the entity’s primary beneficiary. Examples of entities that may be VIEs include certain legal
entities structured as corporations, partnerships or LLCs.
We evaluate all of the entities in which we are involved to determine if the entity is a VIE and if so, whether we hold a variable
interest and are the primary beneficiary. We hold variable interests primarily in the following VIEs: certain private equity
investments, a trust fund established for employee retention purposes (“Restricted Stock Trust Fund”) and certain LIHTC funds
or funds of a similar nature. See Note 10 for further information on our VIEs.
Determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE
We consolidate VIEs that are subject to assessment when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The process
for determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE is to conclude whether we are a party to the VIE holding a
variable interest that meets both of the following criteria: (1) has the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the
economic performance of the VIE, and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that in either case
could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
LIHTC funds
RJAHI is the managing member or general partner in a number of LIHTC funds having one or more investor members or
limited partners. These LIHTC funds are organized as LLCs or limited partnerships for the purpose of investing in a number of
project partnerships, which are limited partnerships or LLCs that purchase and develop, or hold, low-income housing properties
qualifying for tax credits and/or provide a mechanism for banks and other institutions to meet their Community Reinvestment
Act obligations throughout the U.S.
Our determination of the primary beneficiary of each fund in which RJAHI has a variable interest requires judgment and is
based on an analysis of all relevant facts and circumstances, including: (1) an assessment of the characteristics of RJAHI’s
variable interest and other involvement it has with the fund, including involvement of related parties and any de facto agents, as
well as the involvement of other variable interest holders, namely, limited partners or investor members, and (2) the fund’s
purpose and design, including the risks that the fund was designed to create and pass through to its variable interest holders. In
the design of most tax credit fund VIEs, the investor members invest solely for tax attributes associated with the portfolio of
low-income housing properties held by the fund. However, certain fund VIEs which invest and hold project partnerships that
have already delivered most of the tax credits to their investors hold the projects to monetize anticipated future tax benefits for
which the project may ultimately qualify. In both instances, RJAHI, as the managing member or general partner of the fund, is
responsible for overseeing the fund’s operations.
RJAHI sponsors two general types of tax credit funds designed to deliver tax benefits to the investors. Generally, neither type
meets the VIE consolidation criteria. These types of funds include single investor funds and multi-investor funds. RJAHI does
not typically provide guarantees related to the delivery or funding of tax credits or other tax attributes to the investor members
or limited partners of tax credit funds. The investor member(s) or limited partner(s) of the VIEs bear the risk of loss on their
investment. Additionally, under the tax credit funds’ designed structure, the investor member(s) or limited partner(s) receive
nearly all of the tax credits and tax-deductible loss benefits designed to be delivered by the fund entity, as well as a majority of
any proceeds upon a sale of a project partnership held by a tax credit fund (fund level residuals). RJAHI earns fees from the
fund for its services in organizing the fund, identifying and acquiring the project partnership investments and ongoing asset
management, and receives a share of any residuals arising from sale of project partnerships upon the termination of the fund.
In single investor funds that deliver tax benefits, RJAHI has concluded that the one single investor member or limited partner in
such funds, in nearly all instances, has significant participating rights over the activities that most significantly impact the
economics of the fund. Therefore RJAHI, as managing member or general partner of such funds, is not the one party with
power over such activities and resultantly is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of such single investor funds and, in
nearly all cases, these funds are not consolidated.
In multi-investor funds that deliver tax benefits, RJAHI has concluded that since the participating rights over the activities that
most significantly impact the economics of the fund are not held by one single investor member or limited partner, RJAHI is
deemed to have the power over such activities. RJAHI then assesses whether its projected benefits to be received from the
multi-investor funds, primarily its share of any residuals upon the termination of the fund, are potentially significant to the fund.
As such residuals received upon termination are not expected to be significant to the funds, in nearly all cases, these funds are
not consolidated.
RJAHI may also sponsor other funds designed to hold projects to monetize future tax benefits for which the projects may
qualify in either single investor or multi-investor form. In single investor form, the limited partner has significant participating
rights over the activities that most significantly impact the economics of the fund, and therefore RJAHI is not the primary
beneficiary of such funds and such funds are not consolidated. In multi-investor form, we have concluded that we meet the
power criteria since participating rights are not held by any one single investor and thus RJAHI is deemed to have the power
over such activities; however, we have concluded that we do not meet the benefits criteria given we do not expect the benefits
to be potentially significant and therefore we are not the primary beneficiary and we do not consolidate the funds.
Direct investments in LIHTC project partnerships
Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank are the investor members of LIHTC funds that deliver tax benefits which we
have determined to be VIEs, and in which RJAHI, or its subsidiary, is the managing member. For Raymond James Bank, we
have determined that it is the primary beneficiary of this VIE and therefore, we consolidate the fund. TriState Capital Bank also
holds investments in other LIHTC funds for which we have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary. LIHTC funds
which we consolidate are investor members in certain LIHTC project partnerships. Since unrelated third parties are the
managing members of the investee project partnerships, we have determined that consolidation of these project partnerships is
not required and the funds account for their project partnership investments under the equity method. The carrying values of
105
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
the funds’ project partnership investments are included in “Other assets” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition. Any losses on such equity method investments are included in “Other” expenses on our Consolidated Statements of
Income and Comprehensive Income. See “Income taxes” section of this Note 2 for a discussion of our accounting for the tax
benefits related to such investments.
Private Equity Interests
As part of our private equity investments, at one time we held interests in a number of limited partnerships (our “Private Equity
Interests”). We concluded that the Private Equity Interests are VIEs, primarily as a result of the treatment of limited partner
kick-out and participation rights as a simple majority of the limited partners cannot initiate an action to kick-out the general
partner without cause and the limited partners with equity at-risk lack substantive participating rights.
In our analysis of the criteria to determine whether we were the primary beneficiary of the Private Equity Interests VIEs, we
analyzed the power and benefits criteria. As of September 30, 2021, we had concluded that we were the primary beneficiary in
certain of these entities as we met the power and benefits criteria. In such instances, we consolidated the Private Equity
Interests VIE. However, as of September 30, 2022 we had sold or restructured such investments such that we were no longer
deemed the primary beneficiary and therefore did not consolidated these entities. In our remaining Private Equity Interests, we
are a passive limited partner investor, and thus, we do not have the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the
economic performance of such VIEs. Accordingly, in such circumstances, we have determined we are not the primary
beneficiary and therefore we do not consolidate the VIE.
Restricted Stock Trust Fund
We utilize a trust in connection with certain of our RSU awards. This trust fund was established and funded for the purpose of
acquiring our common stock in the open market to be used to settle RSUs granted as a retention vehicle for certain employees
of our Canadian subsidiaries. We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and, accordingly, consolidate this trust fund.
Acquisitions
Our financial statements include the operations of acquired businesses starting from the completion of the acquisition.
Acquisitions are generally recorded as business combinations, whereby the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded
on the date of acquisition at their respective estimated fair values, including any identifiable intangible assets. Any excess of
the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
Significant judgment is required in estimating the fair value of certain acquired assets and liabilities. The fair value estimates
are based on available historical information and on future expectations and assumptions deemed reasonable by management,
but are inherently uncertain as they pertain to forward-looking views of our businesses, client behavior, and market conditions.
We consider the income, market and cost approaches and place reliance on the approach or approaches deemed most
appropriate to estimate the fair value of intangible assets. Significant estimates and assumptions inherent in the valuations
reflect a consideration of other marketplace participants and include the amount and timing of future cash flows (including
expected growth rates and profitability) and the discount rate applied to the cash flows.
Determining the useful life of an intangible asset also requires judgment. With the exception of certain customer relationships,
the majority of our acquired intangible assets (e.g., customer relationships, trade names and non-compete agreements) are
expected to have determinable useful lives. We estimate the useful lives of these intangible assets based on a number of factors
including competitive environment, market share, trademark, brand history, underlying demand, and operating plans. Finite-
lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful life. Refer to Note 3 and our goodwill and intangible assets
policies above for additional information.

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS
TriState Capital
On June 1, 2022, we completed our acquisition of all the outstanding shares of TriState Capital, including its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, TriState Capital Bank and Chartwell Investment Partners, LLC (“Chartwell”), in a cash and stock transaction
valued at $1.4 billion. TriState Capital Bank serves the commercial banking needs of middle-market businesses and financial
services providers and focused private banking needs of high-net-worth individuals. Chartwell, a registered investment adviser,
provides investment management services primarily to institutional investors, mutual funds, and individual investors. TriState
Capital Bank will continue to operate as a separately branded firm and as an independently-chartered bank. TriState Capital
Bank and Chartwell have been integrated into our Bank and Asset Management segments, respectively, and their results of
operations have been included in our results prospectively from the closing date of June 1, 2022.
Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, TriState Capital common stockholders received $6.00 cash and 0.25 shares of
RJF common stock for each share of TriState Capital common stock. Additionally, the TriState Capital Series C Perpetual
Non-Cumulative Convertible Non-Voting Preferred Stock (“Series C Convertible Preferred Stock”) was converted to common
shares at the prescribed exchange ratio and cashed out at $30 per share and each share of TriState Capital’s 6.75% Fixed-to-
Floating Rate Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock and TriState Capital’s 6.375% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Series
B Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock was converted, respectively, into the right to receive one share of a newly created
series A and series B preferred stock of RJF. The fair values of these newly created RJF series A and series B preferred stock
were estimated as of the June 1, 2022 acquisition date based on quoted market prices for the instruments. See Note 20 for
further details on these new classes of preferred stock.
Furthermore, as a component of our total purchase consideration for TriState Capital on June 1, 2022, in accordance with the
terms of the acquisition agreement, 551 thousand RJF RSAs were issued at terms that mirrored RSAs of TriState Capital which
were outstanding as of the acquisition date. In accordance with the terms of the acquisition agreement, the TriState Capital
RSAs were converted to RJF RSAs using an exchange ratio that considered the RJF volume weighted average price for 10
trading days ending on the third business day prior to the closing of the acquisition. The fair value of the RSAs upon
completion of the transaction was calculated as of the June 1, 2022 acquisition date based on the June 1, 2022 closing share
price of our common stock and was allocated between the pre-acquisition service period ($28 million treated as purchase
consideration) and the post-acquisition requisite service period, over which we will recognize share-based compensation
amortization. See Note 23 for further details on these RSAs.
On December 15, 2021, during the period between announcement of the intent to acquire TriState Capital and the acquisition
closing date, we had loaned TriState Capital $125 million under an unsecured fixed-to-floating rate note (the “Note”). The
Note was set to mature on December 15, 2024 and bore interest at a fixed annual rate of 2.25%. Upon acquisition, the Note
reverted to an intercompany instrument and subsequent to the closing date, the Note was forgiven. In accordance with GAAP,
as of the acquisition date the Note was considered to have been effectively settled and the acquisition-date fair value of $123
million was treated as purchase consideration and included in the purchase price. The fair value of the Note on the acquisition
date was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the incremental borrowing rates for similar types of
instruments at the acquisition date.

All other acquisitions
On January 21, 2022, we completed our acquisition of U.K.-based Charles Stanley Group PLC (“Charles Stanley”) using cash
on hand as of the acquisition date. The acquisition enables us to accelerate our financial planning, investment advisory and
securities transaction services growth in the U.K. and, through Charles Stanley’s multiple affiliation options, gives us the ability
to offer wealth management affiliation choices to financial advisors in the U.K. consistent with our PCG model in the U.S. and
Canada. Charles Stanley has been integrated into our PCG segment and its results of operations have been included in our
results prospectively from the closing date of January 21, 2022.
On July 1, 2022, we completed our acquisition of SumRidge Partners, LLC (“SumRidge Partners”) using cash on hand as of the
acquisition date. SumRidge Partners is a technology-driven fixed income market maker specializing in investment-grade and
high-yield corporate bonds, municipal bonds, and institutional preferred securities. The acquisition of SumRidge Partners
added an institutional market-making operation, as well as additional trading technologies and risk management tools to our
existing fixed income operations. SumRidge Partners has been integrated into our Capital Markets segment and its results of
operations have been included in our results prospectively from the closing date of July 1, 2022.
We accounted for our completed acquisitions of Charles Stanley and SumRidge Partners as business combinations in
accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, the aggregate purchase price attributable to each acquisition was allocated to the assets

Determination of fair value
The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents; Assets segregated for regulatory purposes; Brokerage client receivables; Other receivables; and
Brokerage client payables: The pre-close carrying amount of these assets and liabilities was a reasonable estimate of fair value
based on the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.
Trading assets and liabilities: The pre-close carrying amount of trading assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date were
used as reasonable estimates of fair value. We utilized prices from third-party pricing services to corroborate these estimates of
fair value.
Available-for-sale securities: The fair values of available-for-sale securities were based on quoted market prices for the same
or similar securities, recently executed transactions or third-party pricing models.
Derivatives assets and liabilities: The pre-close carrying amount of derivative assets and liabilities, which utilized valuations
from third-party pricing services, were used as reasonable estimates of fair value.
Bank loans: Fair values for bank loans were determined using a discounted cash flow methodology that considered loan type
and related collateral, credit loss expectations, classification status, market interest rates and other market factors from the
perspective of a market participant. Loans were segregated into specific pools according to similar characteristics, including
risk, interest rate type (i.e., fixed or floating), underlying benchmark rate, and payment type and were treated in the aggregate
when determining the fair value of each pool. The discount rates were derived using a build-up method inclusive of the
weighted average cost of funding, estimated servicing costs and an adjustment for liquidity and then compared to current
origination rates and other relevant market data.
Purchased loans were evaluated and classified as either purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”), which indicates that the loan has
experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination, or non-PCD loans. For PCD loans, the sum of the
loan’s purchase price and allowance for credit losses, which was determined as of the acquisition date using the same allowance
methodology applied to the TriState Capital Bank loan portfolio as of September 30, 2022, became its initial amortized cost
basis. The initial allowance for credit losses on PCD loans is established in purchase accounting, with a corresponding offset to
goodwill (i.e., is not recorded in earnings). As required under GAAP, an initial allowance for credit losses on non-PCD loans is
required to be established through a provision for credit losses (i.e., recorded in earnings) in the first reporting period following
the acquisition. Subsequent changes in the allowance for credit losses for PCD and non-PCD loans are recognized in the bank
loan provision/(benefit) for credit losses. For non-PCD loans, the difference between the fair value and the unpaid principal
balance was considered the fair value mark. The non-credit discount or premium related to PCD loans and the fair value mark
on non-PCD loans will be accreted or amortized into interest income over the weighted average life of the underlying loans,
which may vary based on prepayments.
Of the total bank loans acquired in the TriState Capital acquisition with an unpaid principal balance of $11.70 billion, $11.36
billion were considered non-PCD loans and $337 million were considered PCD loans. The following table reconciles the
difference between the unpaid principal balance and purchase price of PCD loans at acquisition.

Identifiable intangible assets: The fair values of the significant identifiable intangible assets were estimated using the following
income approaches.
•
•
•
•
Customer relationships — The fair values of customer relationships were estimated using a multi-period excess
earnings approach that considered future period post-tax earnings, as well as a discount rate.
Trade names — The fair values of trade names were estimated using a relief from royalty approach which was based
on a forecast of the after-tax royalties we would save by ownership of the intangible assets rather than licensing the use
of those assets.
Core deposit intangible (“CDI”) — The fair value of the CDI asset was estimated using a discounted cash flow
approach, specifically the favorable source of funds method, that considered the servicing and interest costs of the
acquired deposit base, an estimate of the cost associated with alternative funding sources, expected client attrition
rates, deposit growth rates, and a discount rate.
Developed technology — The fair value of developed technology was estimated primarily using a multi-period excess
earnings approach which was based on a forecast of the expected future net cash flows attributable to the assets over
the estimated remaining lives of the assets.
These cash flow forecasts were then adjusted to present value by applying appropriate discount rates based on current market
rates that reflect the risks associated with the cash flow streams.
The following table summarizes the fair value and weighted average estimated useful life of identifiable intangibles assets
acquired as of the respective acquisition dates.

Other assets: Other assets primarily include company-owned life insurance policies, ROU assets, investments in FHLB stock,
and investments in LIHTC funds. The pre-close historical carrying values of company-owned life insurance policies,
investments in FHLB stock and investments in LIHTC funds were used as a reasonable estimate of fair value. ROU lease
assets were measured at the same amount as the lease liability, as adjusted to reflect favorable or unfavorable terms of the lease
when compared with market terms (see “Other payables” section below for additional details regarding acquired lease
liabilities).
Bank deposits: The fair values used for demand and savings deposits equaled the amounts payable on demand at the acquisition
date. The fair values for time deposits were estimated by applying a discounted cash flow method to discount the principal and
interest payments from maturity at the yields offered by similar banks as of the acquisition date.
Other borrowings: Other borrowings was comprised of 5.75% fixed-to-floating subordinated notes due 2030 and short-term
FHLB advances (see Note 16 for further details on these borrowings). The fair value of the subordinated note was estimated
based on quoted market prices as of the valuation date. The carrying amount of the FHLB advances was a reasonable estimate
of fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments and that the vast majority are floating-rate advances.
All other liabilities assumed: All other liabilities assumed primarily included payables to brokers, dealers, and clearing
organizations, lease liabilities, accrued compensation, commissions, and benefits, and the fair value of unfunded lending
commitments. The pre-close historical carrying amount of payables to brokers, dealers, and clearing organizations and accrued
compensation, commissions, and benefits was a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these
liabilities. Lease liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments determined using a discounted
cash flow method based on our cost of borrowing, as if the acquired lease were a new lease at the acquisition date. The fair
value of unfunded lending commitments was estimated using a discounted cash flow approach.

NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE
Our “Financial instruments” and “Financial instrument liabilities” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition are
recorded at fair value. For further information about such instruments and our significant accounting policies related to fair
value see Note 2. The following tables present assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Netting
adjustments represent the impact of counterparty and collateral netting on our derivative balances included on our Consolidated
Statements of Financial Condition. See Note 6 for additional information.

As of September 30, 2022, 14% of our assets and 2% of our liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. In
comparison, as of September 30, 2021, 19% of our assets and 1% of our liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring
basis. As of both September 30, 2022 and 2021, Level 3 assets represented less than 1% of our assets measured at fair value on
a recurring basis.
Investments in private equity measured at net asset value per share
As a practical expedient, we utilize NAV or its equivalent to determine the recorded value of a portion of our private equity
investments portfolio. We utilize NAV when the fund investment does not have a readily determinable fair value and the NAV
of the fund is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of investment company accounting, including
measurement of the investments at fair value.
Our private equity portfolio as of September 30, 2022 primarily included investments in third-party funds, including growth
equity, venture capital, and mezzanine lending fund investments. Our investments cannot be redeemed directly with the funds.

(1) Of the total private equity investments at September 30, 2021, the portion we owned was $120 million, while the portion that we did not own was $49
million and was included as a component of noncontrolling interests on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
As a financial holding company, we are subject to holding period limitations for our merchant banking activities. As a result of
such holding limitations, we exited or restructured certain of our private equity investments during fiscal 2022 to conform with
such regulatory deadlines, which resulted in a decline in private equity investments not measured at NAV compared to
September 30, 2021 and a decline in noncontrolling interests on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition related to
the portion of such investments we did not own. Additionally, many of our private equity fund investments met the definition
of prohibited covered funds as defined by the Volcker Rule enacted pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”). We received approval from the Fed to continue to hold the majority of our
covered fund investments until July 2022. As a result, we have exited or restructured our covered fund investments to conform
to such regulatory deadlines.
Financial instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
The following table presents assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis along with the valuation techniques and
significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the assets classified as level 3. These inputs represent those that a
market participant would take into account when pricing these instruments. Weighted averages are calculated by weighting
each input by the relative fair value of the related financial instrument.

Many, but not all, of the financial instruments we hold were recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition. The following table presents the estimated fair value and fair value hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities that
are not recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at September 30, 2022 and 2021. This

Short-term financial instruments: The carrying value of short-term financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents,
including amounts segregated for regulatory purposes and restricted cash, and the majority of collateralized agreements and
collateralized financings, are recorded at amounts that approximate the fair value of these instruments. These financial
instruments generally expose us to limited credit risk and have no stated maturities or have short-term maturities and carry
interest rates that approximate market rates. Under the fair value hierarchy, cash and cash equivalents, including amounts
segregated for regulatory purposes and restricted cash, are classified as Level 1 and collateralized agreements and financings
are classified as Level 2.
Bank loans, net: These financial instruments are primarily comprised of loans originated or purchased by our Bank segment and
include SBL, C&I loans, commercial and residential real estate loans, REIT loans, and tax-exempt loans intended to be held
until maturity or payoff. These financial instruments are primarily recorded at amounts that result from the application of the
methodologies for loans held for investment summarized in Note 2. Certain bank loans are held for sale, which are carried at
the lower of cost or market value. A portion of these loans held for sale, as well as certain held for investment loans which
have been written-down, are recorded at fair value as nonrecurring fair value measurements and therefore are excluded from the
preceding table.
The fair values for both variable and fixed-rate loans held for investment are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis
based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality, which includes
our estimate of future credit losses expected to be incurred. The majority of these loans are classified as Level 3 under the fair
value hierarchy. Refer to Note 2 for information regarding the fair value policies specific to loans held for sale.
Receivables and other assets: Brokerage client receivables, other receivables, and certain other assets are recorded at amounts
that approximate fair value and are classified as Levels 2 and 3 under the fair value hierarchy. As specified under GAAP, the
FHLB and FRB stock are recorded at cost, which we have determined to approximate their estimated fair value, and are
classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.
Loans to financial advisors, net: These financial instruments are primarily comprised of loans to financial advisors, primarily
offered for recruiting and retention purposes. Loans to financial advisors, net are recorded at amounts that approximate fair
value and are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 2 for information regarding loans to financial
advisors, net.
Bank deposits: The carrying amounts of variable-rate money market and savings accounts approximate their fair values as these
are short-term in nature. Due to their short-term nature, variable-rate money market and savings accounts are classified as
Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash

flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of expected monthly
maturities on time deposits. These fixed-rate certificates of deposit are classified as Levels 2 and 3 under the fair value
hierarchy.
Payables: Brokerage client payables and other payables are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value and are classified
as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.
Other borrowings: Other borrowings primarily include 5.75% fixed-to-floating subordinated notes due 2030 and our Bank
segment’s borrowings from the FHLB. The fair value of the subordinated notes is estimated by discounting scheduled cash
flows through the estimated maturity using market rates for borrowings of similar maturities and is classified as Level 2 under
the fair value hierarchy. FHLB advances reflect terms that approximate current market rates for similar loans and therefore,
their carrying value approximates fair value. Our FHLB advances are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.
Senior notes payable: The fair value of our senior notes payable is calculated based upon recent trades of those debt securities
in the market. Our senior notes payable are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The following table details the contractual maturities, amortized costs, carrying values and current yields for our available-for-
sale securities. Weighted-average yields are calculated on a taxable-equivalent basis based on estimated annual income divided
by the average amortized cost of these securities. Since our MBS and CMO available-for-sale securities are backed by
mortgages, actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations
without prepayment penalties. As a result, as of September 30, 2022, the weighted-average life of our available-for-sale
securities portfolio was approximately 4.65 years.

At September 30, 2022, of the 1,071 available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position, 734 were in a continuous
unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and 337 securities were in a continuous unrealized loss position for greater than
12 months.
At September 30, 2022, debt securities we held in excess of ten percent of our equity included those issued by the Federal
National Home Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation with amortized costs of $5.42 billion and
$3.21 billion, respectively, and fair values of $4.74 billion and $2.80 billion, respectively.
We received proceeds of $52 million, $969 million, and $222 million, respectively, from sales of available-for-sale securities
for the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively, resulting in insignificant gains.

Risks associated with our derivatives and related risk mitigation
Credit risk
We are exposed to credit losses primarily in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to derivatives that are not
cleared through a clearing organization. Where we are subject to credit exposure, we perform a credit evaluation of
counterparties prior to entering into derivative transactions and we continue to monitor their credit standings on an ongoing
basis. We may require initial margin or collateral from counterparties, generally in the form of cash or other marketable
securities to support certain of these obligations as established by the credit threshold specified by the agreement and/or as a
result of monitoring the credit standing of the counterparties. We also enter into derivatives with clients to which Raymond
James Bank and TriState Capital Bank have provided loans. Such derivatives are generally collateralized by marketable
securities or other assets of the client.
Our only exposure to credit risk on matched book derivatives is related to our uncollected derivative transaction fee revenues,
which were insignificant as of both September 30, 2022 and 2021. We are not exposed to market risk on these derivatives due
to the pass-through transaction structure described in Note 2.
Interest rate and foreign exchange risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk related to certain of our interest rate derivatives. We are also exposed to foreign exchange
risk related to our forward foreign exchange derivatives. On a daily basis, we monitor our risk exposure on our derivatives
based on established limits with respect to a number of factors, including interest rate, foreign exchange spot and forward rates,
spread, ratio, basis and volatility risks, both for the total portfolio and by maturity period.
Derivatives with credit-risk-related contingent features
Certain of our derivative contracts contain provisions that require our debt to maintain an investment-grade rating from one or
more of the major credit rating agencies or contain provisions related to default on certain of our outstanding debt. If our debt
were to fall below investment-grade or we were to default on certain of our outstanding debt, the counterparties to the derivative
instruments could terminate the derivative and request immediate payment, or demand immediate and ongoing overnight
collateralization on our derivative instruments in liability positions. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with
such credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position was $8 million as of September 30, 2022 and was
insignificant as of September 30, 2021.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 7 – COLLATERALIZED AGREEMENTS AND FINANCINGS
Collateralized agreements are comprised of reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowed. Collateralized financings
are comprised of repurchase agreements and securities loaned. We enter into these transactions in order to facilitate client
activities, acquire securities to cover short positions and finance certain firm activities. The significant accounting policies
governing our collateralized agreements and financings are described in Note 2.
Our reverse repurchase agreements, repurchase agreements, securities borrowing and securities lending transactions are
governed by master agreements that are widely used by counterparties and that may allow for net settlements of payments in the
normal course, as well as offsetting of all contracts with a given counterparty in the event of bankruptcy or default of one of the
parties to the transaction. For financial statement purposes, we do not offset our reverse repurchase agreements, repurchase
agreements, securities borrowed and securities loaned because the conditions for netting as specified by GAAP are not met.
Although not offset on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, these transactions are included in the following
table.

We receive cash and securities as collateral, primarily in connection with reverse repurchase agreements, securities borrowing
agreements, derivative transactions, and client margin loans. The collateral we receive reduces our credit exposure to
individual counterparties.
In many cases, we are permitted to deliver or repledge financial instruments we have received as collateral to satisfy our
collateral requirements under our repurchase agreements, securities lending agreements or other secured borrowings, to satisfy
deposit requirements with clearing organizations, or to otherwise meet either our or our clients’ settlement requirements.

NOTE 8 – BANK LOANS, NET
Bank client receivables are comprised of loans originated or purchased by our Bank segment and include SBL, C&I loans,
commercial and residential real estate loans, REIT loans, and tax-exempt loans. These receivables are collateralized by first
and, to a lesser extent, second mortgages on residential or other real property, other assets of the borrower, a pledge of revenue,
securities or are unsecured. We segregate our loan portfolio into six loan portfolio segments: SBL, C&I, CRE, REIT,
residential mortgage, and tax-exempt. See Note 2 for a discussion of accounting policies related to bank loans.
Loan balances in the following tables are presented at amortized cost (outstanding principal balance net of unamortized
purchase discounts or premiums, unearned income, and deferred origination fees and costs), except for certain held for sale
loans recorded at fair value. Bank loans are presented on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at amortized cost
(or fair value where applicable) less the allowance for credit losses. As it pertains to TriState Capital Bank’s loans acquired as
of June 1, 2022, the amortized cost of such purchased loans reflects the fair value of the loans on the acquisition date, and as
described further in Note 3, the purchase discount on such loans is accreted to interest income over the weighted-average life of
the underlying loans, which may vary based on prepayments.

(1) Bank loans, net as of September 30, 2022 are presented net of $112 million of net unamortized discount, unearned income, and deferred loan fees and
costs. The net unamortized discount primarily arose from the acquisition date fair value purchased discount on bank loans acquired in the TriState Capital
acquisition. See Note 3 for further information. Bank loans, net as of September 30, 2021 are presented net of $1 million of unearned income and
deferred loan fees and costs.
At September 30, 2022, we had pledged $6.58 billion of residential mortgage loans and $1.43 billion of CRE loans with the
FHLB as security for both the repayment of certain borrowings and to secure capacity for additional borrowings as needed.
Additionally, as of September 30, 2022, we had pledged $791 million of C&I loans with the FRB to be eligible to participate in
the Federal Reserve’s discount window program. See Notes 7 and 16 for more information regarding borrowings from the
FHLB and bank loans pledged with the FHLB and FRB.
Held for sale loans
Exclusive of the loans acquired on June 1, 2022 in our acquisition of TriState Capital Bank, we originated or purchased $3.38
billion, $2.15 billion, and $1.79 billion of loans held for sale during the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020,
respectively. Of these loans purchased during the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, $2.09 billion, $1.19 billion,
and $1.03 billion, respectively, related to the guaranteed portions of SBA loans that were initially classified as loans for held
sale upon purchase and subsequently transferred to trading instruments once they had been securitized into pools. Proceeds
from the sales of all other loans held for sale and not securitized amounted to $1.29 billion, $973 million, and $776 million for
the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Net gains resulting from such sales were insignificant for
each of the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Collateral-dependent loans
A loan is considered collateral-dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to
be provided substantially through the sale of the underlying collateral. Collateral-dependent loans are recorded based upon the
fair value of the collateral less the estimated selling costs. At September 30, 2022, we had $11 million of collateral-dependent
C&I loans, which were collateralized by commercial real estate and other business assets and $21 million of collateral-
dependent CRE loans which were collateralized by retail, industrial, and health care real estate. At September 30, 2021, we had
$20 million of collateral-dependent CRE loans which were collateralized by retail and industrial real estate. We had $6 million
and $5 million of collateral-dependent residential mortgage loans at September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively,
which were collateralized by single family homes. The recorded investment in residential mortgage loans secured by one-to-
four family residential properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process was $5 million and $4 million at
September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Credit quality indicators
The credit quality of our bank loan portfolio is summarized monthly by management using internal risk ratings, which align
with the standard asset classification system utilized by bank regulators. These classifications are divided into three
groups: Not Classified (Pass), Special Mention, and Classified or Adverse Rating (Substandard, Doubtful, and Loss). These
terms are defined as follows:
Pass – Loans which are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor (or guarantors, if any) or by
the fair value, less costs to acquire and sell, of any underlying collateral and generally are performing in accordance with the
contractual terms.
Special Mention – Loans which have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. These loans are not
adversely classified and do not expose us to sufficient risk to warrant an adverse classification.
Substandard – Loans which are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the
collateral pledged, if any. Loans with this classification are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some
loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful – Loans which have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified as substandard with the added characteristic that
the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of currently-known facts,
conditions and values.
Loss – Loans which are considered by management to be uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance on our
books as an asset, without establishment of a specific valuation allowance or charge-off, is not warranted. We do not have any
loan balances within this classification because, in accordance with our accounting policy, loans, or a portion thereof considered
to be uncollectible are charged-off prior to the assignment of this classification.

We also monitor the credit quality of the residential mortgage loan portfolio utilizing FICO scores and LTV ratios. A FICO
score measures a borrower’s creditworthiness by considering factors such as payment and credit history. LTV measures the
carrying value of the loan as a percentage of the value of the property securing the loan. The following table presents the held
for investment residential mortgage loan portfolio by FICO score and by LTV ratio at origination.

The allowance for credit losses on held for investment bank loans increased $76 million during the year ended September 30,
2022 resulting from a $100 million provision for credit losses, primarily due to the impacts of loan growth at Raymond James
Bank and a weakener economic outlook, as well as the initial provision for credit losses of $26 million recorded on non-PCD
loans acquired as part of the TriState Capital acquisition. These increases in the allowance for credit losses on held for
investment bank loans were partially offset by net charge-offs during the year of $26 million, primarily related to a specific C&I
loan.
The allowance for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments, which is included in “Other payables” on our Consolidated
Statements of Financial Condition, was $19 million, $13 million, and $12 million at September 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020,
respectively. The increase in the allowance for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments for the year ended September
30, 2022 included $5 million related to the initial provision for credit losses on lending commitments assumed as a result of the

NOTE 10 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
A VIE requires consolidation by the entity’s primary beneficiary. We evaluate all of the entities in which we are involved to
determine if the entity is a VIE and if so, whether we hold a variable interest and are the primary beneficiary. Refer to Note 2
for a discussion of our principal involvement with VIEs and the accounting policies regarding determination of whether we are
deemed to be the primary beneficiary of VIEs.
VIEs where we are the primary beneficiary
Of the VIEs in which we hold an interest, we have determined that certain LIHTC funds and the Restricted Stock Trust Fund
require consolidation in our financial statements, as we are deemed the primary beneficiary of such VIEs. As of September 30,
2022, we are not the primary beneficiary of any Private Equity Interests. During the year ended September 30, 2022, we exited
or restructured our Private Equity Interests VIEs for which we had been deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore
were previously consolidated. See Note 4 for further information. The aggregate assets and liabilities of the VIEs we
consolidate are provided in the following table. Aggregate assets and aggregate liabilities may differ from the consolidated
carrying value of assets and liabilities due to the elimination of intercompany assets and liabilities held by the consolidated VIE.

VIEs where we hold a variable interest but are not the primary beneficiary
As discussed in Note 2, we have concluded that for certain VIEs we are not the primary beneficiary and therefore do not
consolidate these VIEs. Such VIEs include certain LIHTC funds, certain Private Equity Interests, and other limited
partnerships. Our risk of loss for these VIEs is limited to our investments in, advances to, and/or receivables due from these
VIEs.
Aggregate assets, liabilities and risk of loss
The aggregate assets, liabilities, and our exposure to loss from those VIEs in which we hold a variable interest, but as to which

The additions to goodwill during the year ended September 30, 2022 arose from our acquisitions of Charles Stanley in the
Private Client Group, TriState Capital in our Bank segment, and SumRidge Partners in our Capital Markets segment. See Note
3 for additional discussion of these acquisitions.
Qualitative assessments
As described in Note 2, we perform goodwill impairment testing on an annual basis or when an event occurs or circumstances
change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. We performed our
latest annual goodwill impairment testing as of our January 1, 2022 evaluation date, evaluating balances as of December 31,
2021. In that testing, we performed a qualitative impairment assessment for each of our reporting units that had goodwill.
Based upon the outcome of our qualitative assessments, no impairment was identified. No events have occurred since our
annual assessment date that would cause us to update this impairment testing.

As described in Note 2, we perform impairment testing for our non-amortizing customer relationships intangible asset on an
annual basis or when an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset
below its carrying value. We performed our latest annual impairment testing as of our January 1, 2022 evaluation date,
evaluating the balance as of December 31, 2021. In that testing, we performed a qualitative assessment for our non-amortizing

We have entered into advances from the FHLB at Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank, which are secured by
certain residential mortgage and CRE loans. As of September 30, 2022, our FHLB borrowings consisted of $850 million of
floating-rate advances at interest rates which reset daily and mature in December 2023, $140 million of overnight floating-rate
advances, which are available for borrowing through May 2023 at interest rates which reset daily, and $200 million of fixed-
rate advances which incur a weighted-average interest rate of 3.45% and mature in December 2022. As of September 30, 2021
our FHLB borrowings consisted of $850 million of floating-rate advances. The interest rates on our floating-rate advances are
generally based on a Secured Overnight Financing Rate. The weighted-average interest rate on our floating-rate FHLB
advances as of September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 was 3.29% and 0.26%, respectively. We use interest rate swaps to
manage the risk of increases in interest rates associated with the majority of our FHLB advances. Refer to Note 2 for
information regarding these interest rate swaps, which are accounted for as hedging instruments.
Subordinated notes
As part of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the TriState Capital acquisition, we assumed, as of the closing date,
TriState Capital’s subordinated notes due 2030, with an aggregate principal amount of $98 million. The subordinated notes
incur interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% until May 2025 and thereafter at a variable interest rate based on London Interbank
Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), or an appropriate alternative reference rate at the time LIBOR ceases to be published. We may
redeem these subordinated notes beginning in August 2025 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the
notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
Other
RJF and RJ&A are parties to an unsecured revolving credit facility agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of
lenders. This committed unsecured borrowing facility has a term through April 2026 and provides for maximum borrowings of
up to $500 million, with a sublimit of $300 million for RJF. RJ&A may borrow up to $500 million under the Credit Facility,
depending on the amount of outstanding borrowings of RJF. The interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Facility are
variable and were based on LIBOR as of September 30, 2022, as adjusted for RJF’s credit rating; however, the administrative
agent has the right to select an industry-accepted alternative reference rate at the time LIBOR ceases to be published. There
were no borrowings outstanding on the Credit Facility as of September 30, 2022 or September 30, 2021. There is a facility fee
associated with the Credit Facility, which also varies with RJF’s credit rating. Based upon RJF’s credit rating as of
September 30, 2022, the variable rate facility fee, which is applied to the committed amount, was 0.150% per annum.
In addition to the Credit Facility, we maintain various secured and unsecured lines of credit, which are generally utilized to
finance certain fixed income securities or for cash management purposes. Borrowings during the year were generally day-to-
day and there were no borrowings outstanding on these arrangements as of September 30, 2022 or September 30, 2021. The
interest rates for these arrangements are variable and are based on a daily bank quoted rate, which may reference LIBOR, the
Fed funds rate, a lender’s prime rate, the Canadian prime rate, or another commercially available rate, as applicable.
A portion of our fixed income transactions are cleared and executed through a third-party clearing organization, which provides
financing for the purchase of trading instruments to support such transactions. The amount of financing is based on the amount
of trading inventory financed, as well as any deposits held at the clearing organization. Amounts outstanding under this
financing arrangement, which are collateralized by a portion of our trading inventory and accrue interest based on market rates,
are included in “Other payables” in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. We also have other collateralized

In March 2020, we sold $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.65% senior notes due April 2030 in a registered
underwritten public offering. Interest on these senior notes is payable semi-annually. We may redeem some or all of these
senior notes at any time prior to January 1, 2030, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount
of the notes redeemed, or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest
thereon, discounted to the redemption date at a discount rate equal to a designated U.S. Treasury rate, plus 50 basis points; and
on or after January 1, 2030, at 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed; plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid
interest thereon to the redemption date.
In July 2016, we sold $300 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.95% senior notes due July 2046 in a registered
underwritten public offering. In May 2017, we reopened the offering and sold, in a registered underwritten public offering, an
additional $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.95% senior notes due July 2046. These additional senior notes were
consolidated, formed into a single series, and are fully fungible with the $300 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.95%
senior notes issued in July 2016. Interest on these senior notes is payable semi-annually. We may redeem some or all of these
senior notes at any time prior to their maturity, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of
the notes redeemed, or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon,
discounted to the redemption date at a discount rate equal to a designated U.S. Treasury rate, plus 45 basis points, plus accrued
and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
In April 2021, we sold $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.75% senior notes due April 2051 in a registered
underwritten public offering. Interest on these senior notes is payable semi-annually. We may redeem some or all of these
senior notes at any time prior to October 1, 2050, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount
of the notes redeemed, or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest
thereon, discounted to the redemption date at a discount rate equal to a designated U.S. Treasury rate, plus 20 basis points; and
on or after October 1, 2050, at 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed; plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid
interest thereon to the redemption date. We utilized the proceeds from this offering and cash on hand to early-redeem our $250
million of 5.625% senior notes due 2024 and our $500 million of 3.625% senior notes due 2026. We recognized losses on the
extinguishment of such notes of $98 million which was presented in “Losses on extinguishment of debt” in our Consolidated
Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the year ended September 30, 2021.

Deferred income taxes are provided for the effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its
reported amount in the financial statements. Deferred income tax assets are subject to a valuation allowance if, in
management’s opinion, it is more likely than not that these benefits will not be realized. As of September 30, 2022, total
deferred tax assets, net of an insignificant valuation allowance, aggregated to $990 million. We continue to believe that the
realization of our deferred tax assets is more likely than not based on expectations of future taxable income. Our net deferred
tax assets principally related to a net unrealized loss associated with available-for-sale securities, deferred compensation, lease
liabilities, and allowances for credit losses, partially offset by deferred tax liabilities related to goodwill and identifiable
intangible assets and lease ROU assets.
The $14 million of net deferred tax liabilities included in “Other payables” on our Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition as of September 30, 2022, primarily arose from entities in the U.K., and accordingly were not netted against balances
arising from our U.S. entities.
As of September 30, 2022, we considered substantially all undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries to be permanently
reinvested. The Tax Cut and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), enacted in December 2017, reduced our incremental tax cost of repatriating
offshore earnings. As a result, we have not provided for any U.S. deferred income taxes related to such subsidiaries. The
TCJA instituted a territorial system of international taxation. Under the system, dividends received by a U.S. corporation from
its 10%-or-greater-owned foreign subsidiaries are generally exempt from U.S. tax if attributable to non-U.S. source earnings,
but are subject to tax on “Global intangible low-taxed income” which is applicable regardless of whether the income is
repatriated. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $431 million of cumulative undistributed earnings attributable to
foreign subsidiaries. Because the time and manner of repatriation is uncertain, we cannot determine the impact of local taxes,
withholding taxes, and foreign tax credits associated with the future repatriation of such earnings, and therefore, cannot quantify
the tax liability that would be payable in the event all such foreign earnings are repatriated.
As of September 30, 2022, the current tax receivable, which was included in “Other receivables, net” on our Consolidated
Statements of Financial Condition, was $7 million, and the current tax payable, which was included in “Other payables,” was
$28 million. As of September 30, 2021, the current tax receivable was $12 million and the current tax payable was $7 million.

Uncertain tax positions
We recognize the accrual of interest and penalties related to income tax matters in interest expense and other expense,
respectively. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, accrued interest and penalties were $9 million and $7 million, respectively.
The following table presents the aggregate changes in the balances for uncertain tax positions.

The total amount of uncertain tax positions that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate (the items included in the
preceding table after considering the federal tax benefit associated with any state tax provisions) was $38 million, $31 million,
and $40 million at September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We anticipate that the uncertain tax position liability
balance will decrease by approximately $11 million over the next 12 months due to expiration of statutes of limitations of
federal and state tax returns.
RJF and its domestic subsidiaries are included in the consolidated income tax returns of RJF in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and
various consolidated states. Our subsidiaries also file separate income tax returns in various state and local and foreign
jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or foreign income tax
examination by tax authorities for fiscal years prior to fiscal 2019, with the fiscal year 2018 limited by a provision of the TCJA
described as follows. Certain state and local and foreign tax returns are currently under various stages of audit and appeals
processes. Our fiscal 2018 federal tax return remains open for limited examination under the TCJA. The TCJA provides the
Internal Revenue Service a six year limitation period to assess the net transition tax liability reported by the firm.
NOTE 19 – COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES
Commitments and contingencies
Underwriting commitments
In the normal course of business, we enter into commitments for debt and equity underwritings. As of September 30, 2022, we
had two such open underwriting commitments, which were subsequently settled in open market transactions and did not result
in significant losses.
Lending commitments and other credit-related financial instruments
We have outstanding, at any time, a significant number of commitments to extend credit and other credit-related off-balance-
sheet financial instruments, such as standby letters of credit and loan purchases, which then extend over varying periods of
time. These arrangements are subject to strict underwriting assessments and each customer’s credit worthiness is evaluated on a
case-by-case basis. Fixed-rate commitments are subject to market risk resulting from fluctuations in interest rates and our
exposure is limited to the replacement value of those commitments.

SBL and other consumer lines of credit primarily represent the unfunded amounts of bank loans to consumers that are secured
by marketable securities or other liquid collateral at advance rates consistent with industry standards. The proceeds from
repayment or, if necessary, the liquidation of collateral, which is monitored daily, are expected to satisfy the amounts drawn
against these existing lines of credit. These lines of credit are primarily uncommitted, as we reserve the right to not make any
advances or may terminate these lines at any time.
Because many of our lending commitments expire without being funded in whole or in part, the contractual amounts are not
estimates of our actual future credit exposure or future liquidity requirements. The allowance for credit losses calculated under
CECL provides for potential losses related to the unfunded lending commitments. See Notes 2 and 8 for further discussion of
this allowance for credit losses related to unfunded lending commitments. See Note 3 for a discussion of the initial provision for
credit losses on loans and lending commitments acquired as part of the TriState Capital acquisition.
RJ&A enters into margin lending arrangements which allow customers to borrow against the value of qualifying securities.
Margin loans are collateralized by the securities held in the customer’s account at RJ&A. Collateral levels and established
credit terms are monitored daily and we require customers to deposit additional collateral or reduce balances as necessary.
We offer loans to prospective financial advisors for recruiting and retention purposes (see Notes 2 and 9 for further discussion
of our loans to financial advisors). These offers are contingent upon certain events occurring, including the individuals joining
us and meeting certain other conditions outlined in their offer.
Investment commitments
We had unfunded commitments to various investments, primarily held by Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank, of
$51 million as of September 30, 2022.
Other commitments
RJAHI sells investments in project partnerships to various LIHTC funds, which have third-party investors, and for which
RJAHI serves as the managing member or general partner. RJAHI typically sells investments in project partnerships to LIHTC
funds within 90 days of their acquisition. Until such investments are sold to LIHTC funds, RJAHI is responsible for funding
investment commitments to such partnerships. As of September 30, 2022, RJAHI had committed approximately $53 million to
project partnerships that had not yet been sold to LIHTC funds. Because we expect to sell these project partnerships to LIHTC
funds and the equity funding events arise over future periods, the contractual commitments are not expected to materially
impact our future liquidity requirements. RJAHI may also make short-term loans or advances to project partnerships and
LIHTC funds.
For information regarding our lease commitments, including the maturities of our lease liabilities, see Note 14.
Guarantees
Our U.S. broker-dealer subsidiaries are required by federal law to be members of the Securities Investors Protection
Corporation (“SIPC”). The SIPC fund provides protection up to $500 thousand per client for securities and cash held in client
accounts, including a limitation of $250 thousand on claims for cash balances. We have purchased excess SIPC coverage
through various syndicates of Lloyd’s of London. For RJ&A, our clearing broker-dealer, the additional protection currently
provided has an aggregate firm limit of $750 million for cash and securities, including a sub-limit of $1.9 million per client for
cash above basic SIPC. Account protection applies when a SIPC member fails financially and is unable to meet its obligations
to clients. This coverage does not protect against market fluctuations. RJF has provided an indemnity to Lloyd’s of London
against any and all losses they may incur associated with the excess SIPC policies.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Legal and regulatory matter contingencies
In the normal course of our business, we have been named, from time to time, as a defendant in various legal actions, including
arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, arising in connection with our activities as a diversified financial services
institution.
RJF and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to regular reviews and inspections by regulatory authorities and self-regulatory
organizations. Reviews can result in the imposition of sanctions for regulatory violations, ranging from non-monetary censures
to fines and, in serious cases, temporary or permanent suspension from conducting business, or limitations on certain business
activities. In addition, regulatory agencies and self-regulatory organizations institute investigations from time to time, among
other things, into industry practices, which can also result in the imposition of such sanctions. For example, the firm is
currently cooperating with the SEC in connection with an investigation of the firm’s investment advisory business’ compliance
with records preservation requirements relating to business communications sent over electronic messaging channels that have
not been approved by the firm. The SEC is reportedly conducting similar investigations of record preservation practices at other
financial institutions.
We may contest liability and/or the amount of damages, as appropriate, in each pending matter. The level of litigation and
investigatory activity (both formal and informal) by government and self-regulatory agencies in the financial services industry
continues to be significant. There can be no assurance that material losses will not be incurred from claims that have not yet
been asserted or are not yet determined to be material.
For many legal and regulatory matters, we are unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss as we cannot predict if,
how or when such proceedings or investigations will be resolved or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if
any, may be. A large number of factors may contribute to this inherent unpredictability: the proceeding is in its early stages; the
damages sought are unspecified, unsupported or uncertain; it is unclear whether a case brought as a class action will be allowed
to proceed on that basis; the other party is seeking relief other than or in addition to compensatory damages (including, in the
case of regulatory and governmental proceedings, potential fines and penalties); the matters present significant legal
uncertainties; we have not engaged in settlement discussions; discovery is not complete; there are significant facts in dispute;
and numerous parties are named as defendants (including where it is uncertain how liability might be shared among
defendants). Subject to the foregoing, after consultation with counsel, we believe that the outcome of such litigation and
regulatory proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition. However, the outcome
of such litigation and regulatory proceedings could be material to our operating results and cash flows for a particular future
period, depending on, among other things, our revenues or income for such period.
There are certain matters for which we are unable to estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible loss. With
respect to legal and regulatory matters for which management has been able to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss as of
September 30, 2022, we estimated the upper end of the range of reasonably possible aggregate loss to be approximately $90
million in excess of the aggregate accruals for such matters. Refer to Note 2 for a discussion of our criteria for recognizing
liabilities for contingencies.
Subsequent to our fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, we entered into an agreement with certain third-party insurance
carriers to settle claims triggered by a previously settled litigation matter. Our fiscal first quarter of 2023 results will include
this $32 million insurance settlement, which we considered a gain contingency as of September 30, 2022.

NOTE 20 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Preferred stock
On June 1, 2022, we completed our acquisition of TriState Capital. As a component of our total purchase consideration for
TriState Capital on June 1, 2022, we issued two series of preferred stock, each described below, to replace previously issued
and, as of the acquisition date, outstanding preferred stock of TriState Capital. See Note 3 for further information about the
acquisition.
On June 1, 2022, we issued 1.61 million depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of 6.75% Fixed-to-
Floating Rate Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value of $0.10 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”),
with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (equivalent of $25 per depositary share). Dividends on the Series A Preferred
Stock are non-cumulative and, if declared, payable quarterly at a rate of 6.75% per annum from original issue date up to, but
excluding, April 1, 2023, and thereafter at a floating rate equal to 3-month LIBOR, or industry-accepted alternative reference
rate at the time LIBOR ceases to be published, plus a spread of 3.985% per annum. Subject to requisite regulatory approvals,
we may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock on or after April 1, 2023, in whole or in part, at our option, at the liquidation
preference plus declared and unpaid dividends. As of September 30, 2022, there were 40,250 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock issued and outstanding with a carrying value and aggregate liquidation preference of $41 million and $40 million,
respectively.
We also issued 3.22 million depositary shares on June 1, 2022, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of 6.375% Fixed-
to-Floating Rate Series B Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value of $0.10 per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”),
with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (equivalent of $25 per depositary share). Dividends on the Series B Preferred
Stock are non-cumulative and, if declared, payable quarterly at a rate of 6.375% per annum from original issue date up to, but
excluding, July 1, 2026, and thereafter at a floating rate equal to 3-month LIBOR, or industry-accepted alternative reference
rate at the time LIBOR ceases to be published, plus a spread of 4.088% per annum. Under certain circumstances, the
aforementioned fixed rate may apply in lieu of the floating rate. Subject to requisite regulatory approvals, we may redeem the
Series B Preferred Stock on or after July 1, 2024, in whole or in part, at our option, at the liquidation preference plus declared
and unpaid dividends. As of September 30, 2022, there were 80,500 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding
with a carrying value and aggregate liquidation preference of $79 million and $81 million, respectively.

We issue shares from time-to-time during the year to satisfy obligations under certain of our share-based compensation
programs, see Note 23 for additional information on these programs. We may also reissue treasury shares for such purposes.
Additionally, on June 1, 2022, we issued 7.97 million shares of common stock as a component of the consideration in the
settlement of TriState Capital common stock, and 551 thousand RSAs, in conjunction with our acquisition of TriState Capital.
See Note 3 for further information on the TriState Capital acquisition and Note 23 for further information on the RSAs and
common stock issuances made under our share-based compensation programs.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Share repurchases
We repurchase shares of our common stock from time to time for a number of reasons, including to offset dilution from share-
based compensation or share issuances arising from an acquisition. In December 2021, our Board of Directors authorized share
repurchases of up to $1 billion, which replaced the previous authorization. Our share repurchases are effected primarily
through regular open-market purchases, typically under a SEC Rule 10b-18 plan, the amounts and timing of which are
determined primarily by our current and projected capital position, applicable law and regulatory constraints, general market
conditions and the price and trading volumes of our common stock. Following the acquisition of TriState Capital on June 1,
2022, we repurchased 1.74 million shares of our common stock for $162 million at an average price of $94 per share. As of
September 30, 2022, $838 million remained available under the Board of Directors’ share repurchase authorization.

RJF expects to continue paying cash dividends. However, the payment and rate of dividends on our common stock are subject
to several factors including our operating results, financial and regulatory requirements or restrictions, and the availability of
funds from our subsidiaries, including our broker-dealer and bank subsidiaries, which may also be subject to restrictions under
regulatory capital rules. The availability of funds from subsidiaries may also be subject to restrictions contained in loan
covenants of certain broker-dealer loan agreements and restrictions by bank regulators on dividends to the parent from
Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital. See Note 24 for additional information on our regulatory capital requirements.
Other
In fiscal 2021, our Board of Directors approved a three-for-two stock split, effected in the form of a 50% stock dividend, paid
on September 21, 2021. All share and per share information was retroactively adjusted in fiscal 2021 to reflect this stock split.
During fiscal 2022, we amended our Restated Articles of Incorporation, as filed with the Secretary of State of Florida on
November 25, 2008, to increase the number of authorized shares of capital stock from 360 million shares to 660 million shares,
consisting of 650 million shares of common stock, par value of $0.01 per share, and 10 million shares of preferred stock, par
value of $0.10 per share. The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, which were filed with the Secretary of State of
Florida on February 28, 2022, were approved by our Board of Directors and our shareholders on December 1, 2021 and
February 24, 2022, respectively.

NOTE 23 - SHARE-BASED AND OTHER COMPENSATION
Share-based compensation plan
We have one share-based compensation plan, the Raymond James Financial, Inc., Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Incentive
Plan (“the Plan”), for our employees, Board of Directors, and independent contractor financial advisors. The Plan authorizes us
to grant 78.4 million new shares, including the shares available for grant under six predecessor plans. As of September 30,
2022, 8.7 million shares were available under the Plan. Generally, we reissue our treasury shares under the Plan; however, we
are also permitted to issue new shares. Our share-based compensation accounting policies are described in Note 2.
Restricted stock units
We may grant RSU awards under the Plan in connection with initial employment or under various retention programs for
individuals who are responsible for contributing to our management, growth, and/or profitability. Through our Canadian
subsidiary, we utilize the Restricted Stock Trust Fund, which we funded to enable the trust fund to acquire our common stock in
the open market to be used to settle RSUs granted as a retention vehicle for certain employees of our Canadian subsidiaries.
We may also grant awards to officers and certain other employees in lieu of cash for portions ranging from 10% to 50% of
annual bonus amounts in excess of $250,000. Under the plan, the awards are generally restricted for a three- to five-year
period, during which time the awards are generally forfeitable in the event of termination other than for death, disability, or
qualifying retirement.
We grant RSUs annually to non-employee members of our Board of Directors. The RSUs granted to these Directors vest over a
1-year period from their grant date or upon retirement from our Board.

As a component of our total purchase consideration for TriState Capital on June 1, 2022, in accordance with the terms of the
acquisition, 551 thousand RJF RSAs were issued at terms that mirrored RSAs of TriState Capital which were outstanding as of
the acquisition date. The fair value of the RJF RSAs was calculated as of the June 1, 2022 acquisition date and was allocated
between the pre-acquisition service period ($28 million treated as purchase consideration) and the post-acquisition requisite
service period, over which we will recognize share-based compensation amortization. For the year ended September 30, 2022,
we recorded shared-based compensation expense of $4 million related to these awards. As of September 30, 2022, there were
$21 million of total pre-tax compensation costs not yet recognized for these RJF restricted shares. These costs are expected to
be recognized over a weighted-average period of three years. See Note 3 for further discussion of our acquisition of TriState
Capital.
Employee stock purchase plan
Under the 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, we are authorized to issue up to 13.1 million shares of common stock to
eligible employees. Under the terms of the plan, share purchases in any calendar year are limited to the lesser of 1,000 shares
or shares with a fair value of $25,000. The purchase price of the stock is 85% of the average high and low market price on the
day prior to the purchase date. Under the plan, we sold approximately 416 thousand, 393 thousand and 699 thousand shares to
employees during the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The related compensation expense is
calculated as the value of the 15% discount from market value and was $6 million, $5 million, and $5 million for the years
ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Stock options
We had stock options outstanding as of September 30, 2022 which had been issued to our employees and independent
contractor financial advisors. Effective in fiscal 2017, we stopped issuing stock options to our employees and effective in fiscal
2021, we stopped issuing stock options to our independent contractor financial advisors. Stock options granted to our
independent contractor financial advisors, as well as the related expense was insignificant for the years ended September 30,
2022, 2021, and 2020. Cash received from stock options exercised by our employees and independent contractor financial
advisors during the year ended September 30, 2022 was $15 million.
Employee other compensation
Our profit sharing plan and employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) are qualified plans that provide certain death, disability,
or retirement benefits for all employees who meet certain service requirements. The plans are noncontributory and our
contributions, if any, are determined annually by our Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, on a discretionary basis and
are recognized as compensation expense throughout the year. Benefits become fully vested after five years of qualified service,
age 65, or if a participant separates from service due to death or disability.
All shares owned by the ESOP are included in earnings per share calculations. Cash dividends paid to the ESOP are reflected
as a reduction of retained earnings. The number of shares of our common stock held by the ESOP at September 30, 2022 and
2021 was 6.6 million and 6.7 million, respectively. The market value of our common stock held by the ESOP at September 30,
2022 was $651 million, of which $7 million was unearned (not yet vested) by ESOP plan participants.
We also offer a plan pursuant to section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, which is a qualified plan that may provide for a
discretionary contribution or a matching contribution each year. Matching contributions are 75% of the first $1,000 and 25% of
the next $1,000 of eligible compensation deferred by each participant annually.
Our LTIP is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan that provides benefits to certain employees who meet certain
compensation or production requirements. We have purchased and hold life insurance on the lives of certain current and former
employee participants to earn a competitive rate of return for participants and to provide the primary source of funds available
to satisfy our obligations under this plan. See Note 12 for information regarding the carrying value of these company-owned
life insurance policies.
Contributions to the qualified plans and the LTIP are approved annually by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof.
The VDCP is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain employees, in which eligible participants may elect to
defer a percentage or specific dollar amount of their compensation. Company-owned life insurance is the primary source of
funding for this plan.
Compensation expense associated with all of the qualified and non-qualified plans previously described totaled $195 million,
$175 million and $149 million for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Non-employee deferred payment plans
We offer non-qualified deferred payment plans that provide benefits to our independent contractor financial advisors who meet
certain production requirements. Company-owned life insurance is the primary source of funding for these plans. The
contributions are made in amounts approved annually by management.
Certain independent contractor financial advisors are also eligible to participate in our VDCP. Eligible participants may elect to
defer a percentage or specific dollar amount of their commissions into the VDCP. Company-owned life insurance is the
primary source of funding for this plan.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 24 – REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
RJF, as a bank holding company and financial holding company, as well as Raymond James Bank, TriState Capital Bank, our
broker-dealer subsidiaries, and our trust subsidiaries are subject to capital requirements by various regulatory authorities.
Capital levels of each entity are monitored to ensure compliance with our various regulatory capital requirements. Failure to
meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions, by regulators
that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial results.
As a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”), that has made an
election to be a financial holding company, RJF is subject to supervision, examination and regulation by the Fed. We are
subject to the Fed’s capital rules which establish an integrated regulatory capital framework and implement, in the U.S., the
Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain changes required by the
Dodd-Frank Act. The FDIC’s capital rules, which are substantially similar to the Fed’s rules, apply to TriState Capital Bank.
We apply the standardized approach for calculating risk-weighted assets and are also subject to the market risk provisions of the
Fed’s capital rules (“market risk rule”).
Under these rules, minimum requirements are established for both the quantity and quality of capital held by banking
organizations. RJF, Raymond James Bank, and TriState Capital Bank are required to maintain minimum leverage ratios
(defined as tier 1 capital divided by adjusted average assets), as well as minimum ratios of tier 1 capital, common equity tier 1
(“CET1”), and total capital to risk-weighted assets. These capital ratios incorporate quantitative measures of our assets,
liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under the regulatory capital rules and are subject to qualitative
judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors. We calculate these ratios in order to assess
compliance with both regulatory requirements and internal capital policies. In order to maintain our ability to take certain
capital actions, including dividends and common equity repurchases, and to make bonus payments, we must hold a capital
conservation buffer above our minimum risk-based capital requirements. As of September 30, 2022, capital levels at RJF,
Raymond James Bank, and TriState Capital Bank exceeded the capital conservation buffer requirement and each entity was
categorized as “well-capitalized.”
To meet requirements for capital adequacy or to be categorized as “well-capitalized,” RJF must maintain minimum Tier 1
leverage, Tier 1 capital, CET1, and Total capital amounts and ratios as set forth in the following table.

As of September 30, 2022, RJF’s regulatory capital increase compared to September 30, 2021 was driven by an increase in
equity primarily due to common and preferred stock issued in connection with the TriState Capital acquisition and positive
earnings, partially offset by an increase in goodwill and intangible assets arising from the TriState Capital, Charles Stanley, and
SumRidge Partners acquisitions (see Note 3 for further information) as well as dividends paid to our investors and share
repurchases. RJF’s Tier 1 and Total capital ratios decreased compared to September 30, 2021, resulting from an increase in
risk-weighted assets, partially offset by the increase in regulatory capital. The increase in risk-weighted assets was primarily
driven by increases in bank loans and available-for-sale securities and unfunded lending commitments resulting from the
TriState Capital acquisition and growth at Raymond James Bank, and an increase in trading assets resulting from the SumRidge
Partners acquisition.
155
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
RJF’s Tier 1 leverage ratio at September 30, 2022 decreased compared to September 30, 2021, due to higher average assets,
driven by increases in bank loans, available-for-sale securities, goodwill and intangible assets, as well as trading assets. The
increase in average assets was partially offset by the increase in regulatory capital.
To meet the requirements for capital adequacy or to be categorized as “well-capitalized,” Raymond James Bank and TriState
Capital Bank must maintain Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 capital, CET1, and Total capital amounts and ratios as set forth in the
following tables. Our intention is to maintain Raymond James Bank’s and TriState Capital Bank’s “well-capitalized” status. In
the unlikely event that Raymond James Bank or TriState Capital Bank failed to maintain their “well-capitalized” status, the
consequences could include a requirement to obtain a waiver from the FDIC prior to acceptance, renewal, or rollover of
brokered deposits and result in higher FDIC premiums, but would not significantly impact our operations.

Raymond James Bank’s regulatory capital increased compared to September 30, 2021, driven by an increase in equity due to
positive earnings, offset by dividends paid to RJF. Raymond James Bank’s Tier 1 and Total capital ratios decreased compared

Our banks may pay dividends to RJF without prior approval of their respective regulators subject to certain restrictions
including retained net income and targeted regulatory capital ratios. Dividends paid to RJF from our banks may be limited to
the extent that capital is needed to support their balance sheet growth.
Certain of our broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the requirements of the Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a member firm of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), RJ&A is
subject to FINRA’s capital requirements, which are substantially the same as Rule 15c3-1. Rule 15c3-1 provides for an
“alternative net capital requirement,” which RJ&A has elected. Regulations require that minimum net capital, as defined, be
equal to the greater of $1.5 million or 2% of aggregate debit items arising from client balances. FINRA may impose certain
restrictions, such as restricting withdrawals of equity capital, if a member firm were to fall below a certain threshold or fail to
meet minimum net capital requirements. As of September 30, 2022, RJ&A had excess net capital available to remit dividends

The allocation of earnings and dividends to participating securities in the preceding table represents dividends paid during the
year to participating securities, consisting of certain RSUs, as well as the RSAs granted as part of our acquisition of TriState
Capital, plus an allocation of undistributed earnings to such participating securities. Participating securities and related
dividends paid on these participating securities were insignificant for the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
Undistributed earnings are allocated to participating securities based upon their right to share in earnings if all earnings for the
period had been distributed.

NOTE 26 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
We currently operate through the following five segments: PCG; Capital Markets; Asset Management; Bank; and Other.
The segments are determined based upon factors such as the services provided and the distribution channels served and are
consistent with how we assess performance and determine how to allocate our resources. The financial results of our segments
are presented using the same policies as those described in Note 2. Segment results include allocations of most corporate
expenses to each segment. Refer to the following discussion of the Other segment for a description of the corporate expenses
that are not allocated to segments. Intersegment revenues, expenses, receivables and payables are eliminated upon
consolidation.
The PCG segment provides financial planning, investment advisory and securities transaction services in the U.S., Canada, and
the U.K. for which we generally charge either asset-based fees or sales commissions. The PCG segment also earns revenues for
distribution and related support services performed related to mutual funds, fixed and variable annuities and insurance products.
The segment includes servicing fee revenues from third-party mutual fund and annuity companies whose products we distribute
and from banks to which we sweep a portion of our clients’ cash deposits as part of the RJBDP, our multi-bank sweep program.
The segment also includes net interest earnings primarily on client margin loans, cash balances, and assets segregated for
regulatory purposes, net of interest paid to clients on cash balances in the CIP.
Our Capital Markets segment conducts investment banking, institutional sales, securities trading, equity research, and the
syndication and management of investments in low-income housing funds and funds of a similar nature. We primarily conduct
these activities in the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
Our Asset Management segment earns asset management and related administrative fees for providing asset management,
portfolio management and related administrative services to retail and institutional clients. This segment oversees a portion of
our fee-based assets under administration for our PCG clients through our Asset Management Services division and through
Raymond James Trust, N.A. This segment also provides asset management services through Raymond James Investment
Management for certain retail accounts managed on behalf of third-party institutions, institutional accounts and proprietary
mutual funds that we manage.
Our Bank segment provides various types of loans, including SBL, corporate loans, residential mortgage loans, and tax-exempt
loans. This segment is active in corporate loan syndications and participations and lending directly to clients. This segment
also provides FDIC-insured deposit accounts, including to clients of our broker-dealer subsidiaries, as well as other deposit and
liquidity management products and services. This segment generates net interest income principally through the interest
income earned on loans and an investment portfolio of available-for-sale securities, which is offset by the interest expense it
pays on client deposits and on its borrowings.
The Other segment includes the results of our private equity investments, interest income on certain corporate cash balances,
certain acquisition-related expenses, primarily comprised of professional fees, and certain corporate overhead costs of RJF that
are not allocated to operating segments, including the interest costs on our public debt and any losses on the extinguishment of
such debt. The Other segment also includes the reduction in workforce expenses, primarily the result of the elimination of
certain positions, that occurred in our fiscal fourth quarter of 2020 in response to the economic environment at that time.
Refer to Notes 3 and 11 for additional information regarding our fiscal year 2022 acquisitions of Charles Stanley, TriState
Capital, and SumRidge Partners.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 27 – CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION (PARENT COMPANY ONLY)
As more fully described in Note 1, RJF (or the “Parent”) is a financial holding company whose subsidiaries are engaged in
various financial services activities. The Parent’s primary activities include investments in subsidiaries and corporate
investments, including cash management, company-owned life insurance policies and private equity investments. The primary
source of operating cash available to the Parent is provided by dividends from its subsidiaries.
The broker-dealer subsidiaries of the Parent, including RJ&A our principal domestic broker-dealer, and certain other
subsidiaries are required to maintain a minimum amount of net capital due to regulatory requirements. RJ&A is further
required by certain covenants in its borrowing agreements to maintain minimum net capital equal to 10% of aggregate debit
balances. At September 30, 2022, each of these subsidiaries exceeded their minimum net capital requirements (see Note 24 for
further information).
Of the Parent’s net assets as of September 30, 2022, approximately $125 million of its investment in RJ&A and RJFS was
available for distribution to the Parent without further regulatory approvals. As of September 30, 2022, approximately $5.1
billion of net assets of our U.S. broker-dealers and bank subsidiaries were restricted from distributions to the parent due to
regulatory or other restrictions without prior approval of the respective entity’s regulator. In addition, a large portion of our
non-U.S. subsidiaries’ net assets was held to meet regulatory requirements and was not available for use by the parent.
Cash and cash equivalents of $1.91 billion and $1.16 billion as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, were held
directly by RJF in depository accounts at third-party financial institutions, held in depository accounts at Raymond James Bank,
or were loaned by the Parent to RJ&A, which RJ&A had invested on behalf of RJF, or otherwise deployed in its normal
business activities. The loan to RJ&A, which totaled $1.30 billion and $649 million as of September 30, 2022 and 2021,
respectively, is included in “Intercompany receivables from subsidiaries” in the table below. The amount held in depository
accounts at Raymond James Bank was $260 million as of September 30, 2022, of which $230 million was available on demand
without restriction. As of September 30, 2021, $229 million was held in depository accounts at Raymond James Bank, of
which $152 million was available on demand without restriction.
See Notes 16, 17, 19 and 24 for more information regarding borrowings, commitments, contingencies and guarantees, and
regulatory capital requirements of the Parent and its subsidiaries.
In the following tables, “bank subsidiaries” refers to Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank, including its holding
company which is a subsidiary of RJF. The following table presents the Parent’s statements of financial condition.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL
DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls are procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this report, are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated
and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures,
management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management
necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Securities Exchange Act of
1934 Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Effective July 1, 2022, we completed our acquisition of SumRidge Partners. Management has elected to exclude SumRidge
Partners from our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022, as
permitted by the SEC Staff guidance (see further information below). As of September 30, 2022, management was in the
process of integrating SumRidge Partners into our internal control over financial reporting.
Other than as discussed above, there were no changes during the three months ended September 30, 2022 that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
164
RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. Internal
control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting
for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Internal control over
financial reporting includes maintaining records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions;
providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing
reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of our assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and
providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect
on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal
control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements
would be prevented or detected.
Effective June 1, 2022 and July 1, 2022, we completed our acquisitions of TriState Capital and SumRidge Partners,
respectively. Consistent with guidance issued by the SEC staff that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be
omitted from management’s report on internal control over financial reporting in the year of acquisition, management excluded
TriState Capital and SumRidge Partners from its assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting
as of September 30, 2022. TriState Capital constituted 19% of consolidated total assets as of September 30, 2022 and 1% and
2% of consolidated net revenues and consolidated net income, respectively, for our fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.
SumRidge Partners constituted 1% of consolidated total assets as of September 30, 2022 and less than 1% of both consolidated
net revenues and consolidated net income for our fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. Management’s basis for exclusion
included one or more of the following factors applicable to each respective acquisition: the size of the acquisition relative to our
pre-acquisition financial statements, the complexity of the acquired business, and the timing between the acquisition and our
fiscal year end.
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the
framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO. Based on this evaluation, management
concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of September 30, 2022. KPMG LLP, who audited
and reported on our consolidated financial statements included in this report, has issued an attestation report on our internal
control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022 (included as follows).
165
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Raymond James Financial, Inc.:
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Raymond James Financial, Inc. and subsidiaries’ (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of
September 30, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects,
effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control –
Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the consolidated statements of financial condition of the Company as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, the related
consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the
years in the three-year period ended September 30, 2022, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial
statements), and our report dated November 22, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial
statements.
The Company acquired TriState Capital Holdings, Inc. and SumRidge Partners, LLC during the year ended September 30,
2022, and management excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting as of September 30, 2022, TriState Capital Holdings, Inc. and SumRidge Partners, LLC. TriState Capital Holdings,
Inc. constituted approximately 19% of consolidated total assets, approximately 1% of consolidated net revenues, and
approximately 2% of consolidated net income, and SumRidge Partners, LLC constituted approximately 1% of consolidated
total assets, and less than 1% of consolidated net revenues and consolidated net income included in the consolidated financial
statements of the Company as of and for the year ended September 30, 2022. Our audit of internal control over financial
reporting of the Company also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of TriState Capital
Holdings, Inc. and SumRidge Partners, LLC.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Report of
Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are
required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
166
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Certain Anti-Takeover Effects
Certain provisions of the Company’s Articles and By-Laws may have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging
transactions involving an actual or potential change in control of the Company, including the following:
•
•
•
the Articles provide that the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds (2/3) of all the shares outstanding and
entitled to vote shall be required to approve (i) any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other
corporation, (ii) any share exchange in which a corporation, person, or entity acquires the Company’s issued or
outstanding shares of stock pursuant to a vote of stockholders, (iii) any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer of
all, or substantially all, of the Company’s assets to any other corporation, person or entity, or (iv) any transaction
similar to, or having a similar effect as, any of the foregoing transactions;
the Board is authorized to approve the issuance of one or more series of Preferred Stock without further
authorization of the holders of Common Stock and to fix the number of shares, the designations and the relative
rights and the limitations of any series of Preferred Stock, and as a result the Board, without the approval of
holders of Common Stock, could authorize the issuance of Preferred Stock with voting, conversion and other
rights that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company; and
the Company’s By-Laws specify an advance notice procedure for holders of Common Stock seeking to nominate
persons to stand for election to the Board or to propose other business for consideration at a meeting of the holders
of Common Stock, which requires that advance written notice and certain other information be provided to the
Company, in accordance with the By-Laws.
Transfer Agent
The transfer agent for the Common Stock is Computershare Inc.
Listing
The Company’s Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “RJF.”
Description of Preferred Stock
The following description of the Preferred Stock of the Company, related provisions of the Company’s Articles and
By-Laws and applicable Florida law is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the Articles, By-
Laws and applicable Florida law.
Series A Preferred Stock
Ranking
With respect to the payment of dividends and distributions upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up,
the Series A Preferred Stock shall rank (i) senior to the Company’s Common Stock and any other class or series of Preferred
Stock that by its terms ranks junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) equally with the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock
and any future series of Preferred Stock that does not by its terms rank junior or senior to the Series A Preferred Stock, and (iii)
junior to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities and any class or series of Preferred Stock that expressly
provides in the articles of amendment creating such Preferred Stock that such series ranks senior to the Series A Preferred Stock
(subject to any requisite consents prior to issuance).
The Series A Preferred Stock shall not be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or series of
the Company’s capital stock or other securities and shall not be subject to any sinking fund or other obligation to redeem or
repurchase the Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock shall not be secured, shall not be guaranteed by
Company or any of Company’s affiliates and shall not be subject to any other arrangement that legally or economically
enhances the ranking of the Series A Preferred Stock.
Dividends
Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, only when, as, and if declared by the Company’s
Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board), out of assets legally available under applicable law for
payment, non-cumulative cash dividends based on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock,
and no more, at a rate equal to 6.75% per annum (equivalent to $1.6875 per depositary share per annum), for each quarterly
173
Series A Dividend Period occurring from, and including, the original issue date of the Series A Preferred Stock to, but
excluding, April 1, 2023 (the “Series A Fixed Rate Period”), and thereafter, three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 398.5 basis
points per annum, for each quarterly Series A Dividend Period beginning April 1, 2023 (the “Series A Floating Rate Period”).
A “Series A Dividend Period” means the period from, and including, each Series A Dividend Payment Date (as defined below)
to, but excluding, the next succeeding Series A Dividend Payment Date, except for the initial Series A Dividend Period, which
will be the period from, and including, April 1, 2022 to, but excluding, the next succeeding Series A Dividend Payment Date.
When, as, and if declared by the Company’s Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board), The
Company shall pay cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock quarterly, in arrears, on January 1, April 1, July 1 and
October 1 of each year (each such date, a “Series A Dividend Payment Date”). The Company shall pay cash dividends to the
holders of record of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock as they appear on the Company’s stock register on the applicable
record date, which shall be the fifteenth calendar day before that Series A Dividend Payment Date or such other record date
fixed by the Company’s Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Board) that is not more than 60 nor less than 10 days
prior to such Series A Dividend Payment Date.
If any Series A Dividend Payment Date on or prior to April 1, 2023, is a day that is not a Series A Business Day (as
defined below), then the dividend with respect to that Series A Dividend Payment Date shall instead be paid on the immediately
succeeding Series A Business Day, without interest or other payment in respect of such delayed payment. If any Series A
Dividend Payment Date after April 1, 2023 is a day that is not a Series A Business Day, then the Series A Dividend Payment
Date shall be the immediately succeeding Series A Business Day unless such day falls in the next calendar month, in which
case the Series A Dividend Payment Date shall instead be the immediately preceding day that is a Series A Business Day, and
dividends will accumulate to the Series A Dividend Payment Date as so adjusted. A “Series A Business Day” for the Series A
Fixed Rate Period means any weekday in New York, New York that is not a day on which banking institutions in that city are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to be closed. A “Series A Business Day” for the Series A Floating
Rate Period means any weekday in New York, New York that is not a day on which banking institutions in that city are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to be closed, and additionally, is a London Banking Day (as
defined below).
The Company shall calculate dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock for the Series A Fixed Rate Period on the basis
of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall calculate dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock for the
Series A Floating Rate Period on the basis of the actual number of days in a Series A Dividend Period and a 360-day year.
Dollar amounts resulting from that calculation shall be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward.
Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall not be cumulative or mandatory. If the Company’s Board (or a duly
authorized committee of the Company’s Board) does not declare a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock for, or the
Company’s Board authorizes and the Company declares less than a full dividend in respect of, any Series A Dividend Period,
the holders shall have no right to receive any dividend or a full dividend, as the case may be, for the Series A Dividend Period,
and the Company shall have no obligation to pay a dividend or to pay full dividends for that Series A Dividend Period at any
time, whether or not dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock or any other series of the Company’s Preferred Stock or
Common Stock are declared for any future Series A Dividend Period. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall
accumulate from the issue date at the then-applicable dividend rate on the liquidation preference amount of $1,000 per share
(equivalent to $25 per depositary share). If the Company issues additional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, dividends on
those additional shares shall accumulate from the issue date of those additional shares at the then-applicable dividend rate.
The dividend rate for each Series A Dividend Period in the Series A Floating Rate Period shall be determined by the
calculation agent using three-month LIBOR as in effect on the second London Banking Day prior to the beginning of the Series
A Dividend Period, which date is the “Series A Dividend Determination Date” for the relevant Series A Dividend Period. The
calculation agent then shall add three-month LIBOR as determined on the Series A Dividend Determination Date and the
applicable spread. Once the dividend rate for the Series A Preferred Stock is determined, the calculation agent shall deliver that
information to the Company and the Company’s transfer agent. Absent manifest error, the calculation agent’s determination of
the dividend rate for a Series A Dividend Period for the Series A Preferred Stock shall be final. A “London Banking Day” is
any day on which commercial banks are open for dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars in the London interbank market. The term
“three-month LIBOR” means, for each Series A Dividend Determination Date related to the Series A Floating Rate Period, the
London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars for a three-month period, as that rate appears on Reuters screen page
“LIBOR01” (or any successor or replacement page) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the relevant Series A
Dividend Determination Date.
If no offered rate appears on Reuters screen page “LIBOR01” (or any successor or replacement page) on the relevant
Series A Dividend Determination Date at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, then the calculation agent, in consultation
with the Company, shall select four major banks in the London interbank market and shall request each of their principal
London offices to provide a quotation of the rate at which three-month deposits in U.S. dollars in amounts of at least
$1,000,000 are offered by it to prime banks in the London interbank market, on that date and at that time. If at least two
quotations are provided, three-month LIBOR shall be the arithmetic average (rounded upward if necessary to the nearest .00001
174
of 1%) of the quotations provided. Otherwise, the calculation agent in consultation with the Company shall select three major
banks in New York City and shall request each of them to provide a quotation of the rate offered by it at approximately 11:00
a.m., New York City time, on the Series A Dividend Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks for
a three-month period for the applicable Series A Dividend Period in an amount of at least $1,000,000. If three quotations are
provided, three-month LIBOR shall be the arithmetic average (rounded upward if necessary to the nearest .00001 of 1%) of the
quotations provided. Otherwise, three-month LIBOR for the next Series A Dividend Period shall be equal to three-month
LIBOR in effect for the then-current Series A Dividend Period or, in the case of the first Series A Dividend Period in the Series
A Floating Rate Period, the most recent rate on which three-month LIBOR could have been determined in accordance with the
first sentence of this paragraph had the dividend rate been a floating rate during the Series A Fixed Rate Period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that three-month LIBOR as determined in accordance with this definition is less
than zero, three-month LIBOR for such interest period shall be deemed to be zero.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the calculation agent determines on the relevant Series A Dividend Determination
Date that the LIBOR base rate has been discontinued, then the calculation agent shall use a substitute or successor base rate that
it has determined in its sole discretion is the most comparable LIBOR base rate, provided that if the calculation agent
determines there is an industry-accepted substitute or successor base rate, then the calculation agent shall use such substitute or
successor base rate. If the calculation agent has determined a substitute or successor base rate in accordance with the foregoing,
the calculation agent in its sole discretion may determine what business day convention to use, the definition of Series A
Business Day, the Series A Dividend Determination Date to be used and any other relevant methodology for calculating such
substitute or successor base rate, including any adjustment factor needed to make such substitute or successor base rate
comparable to the LIBOR base rate, in a manner that is consistent with industry-accepted practices for such substitute or
successor base rate.
Priority Regarding Dividends
During a Series A Dividend Period, so long as any share of Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding,
1.
2.
3.
no dividend shall be declared and paid or set aside for payment and no distribution shall be declared and made or
set aside for payment on any Series A Junior Stock (as defined below) (other than a dividend payable solely in
shares of Series A Junior Stock or any dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholder rights plan
or the redemption or repurchase of any rights under such a plan, including with respect to any successor
shareholder rights plan);
no shares of Series A Junior Stock shall be repurchased, redeemed, or otherwise acquired for consideration by the
Company, directly or indirectly (other than as a result of a reclassification of Series A Junior Stock for or into
other Series A Junior Stock, or the exchange for or conversion into Series A Junior Stock, through the use of the
proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of other shares of Series A Junior Stock or pursuant to a
contractually binding requirement to buy Series A Junior Stock pursuant to a binding stock repurchase plan
existing prior to the most recently completed Series A Dividend Period), nor shall any monies be paid to or made
available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such securities by the Company; and
no shares of Series A Parity Stock shall be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by the
Company (other than pursuant to pro rata offers to purchase all, or a pro rata portion, of the Series A Preferred
Stock and such Series A Parity Stock, through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of
other shares of Series A Parity Stock or Series A Junior Stock, as a result of a reclassification of Series A Parity
Stock for or into other Series A Parity Stock, or by conversion into or exchange for other Series A Parity Stock or
Series A Junior Stock),
unless, in each case of clauses (1), (2) and (3) above, the full dividends for the most recently completed Series A Dividend
Period on all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock have been declared and paid in full or declared and a sum
sufficient for the payment of those dividends has been set aside. The foregoing limitations shall not apply to purchases or
acquisitions of the Company’s Series A Junior Stock pursuant to any employee or director incentive or benefit plan or
arrangement (including any of the Company’s employment, severance, or consulting agreements) of the Company or of any of
its subsidiaries.
Except as provided below, for so long as any share of Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding, the Company
shall not declare, pay, or set aside for payment full dividends on any Series A Parity Stock unless the Company has paid in full,
or set aside payment in full, in respect of all accumulated dividends for all Series A Dividend Periods for outstanding shares of
Preferred Stock. To the extent that the Company declares dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and on any Series A Parity
Stock but cannot make full payment of such declared dividends, the Company shall allocate the dividend payments on a pro
rata basis among the holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the holders of any Series A Parity Stock then
outstanding. For purposes of calculating the pro rata allocation of partial dividend payments, the Company shall allocate
175
dividend payments based on the ratio between the then current and unpaid dividend payments due on the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock and (1) in the case of cumulative Series A Parity Stock, the aggregate of the accumulated and unpaid dividends
due on any such Series A Parity Stock, and (2) in the case of non-cumulative Series A Parity Stock, the aggregate of the
declared but unpaid dividends due on any such Series A Parity Stock. No interest shall be payable in respect of any dividend
payment on Series A Preferred Stock that may be in arrears.
As used herein, “Series A Junior Stock” means the Company’s Common Stock and any other class or series of the
Company’s capital stock over which the Series A Preferred Stock has preference or priority in the payment of dividends or in
the distribution of assets on the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and “Series A Parity Stock” means any other
class or series of the Company’s capital stock that ranks equally with the Series A Preferred Stock in the payment of dividends
and in the distribution of assets on the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, which shall include the Series B
Preferred Stock.
Subject to the conditions described above, and not otherwise, dividends (payable in cash, stock, or otherwise), as may
be determined by the Company’s Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board), may be declared and paid
on the Company’s Common Stock and any Series A Junior Stock from time to time out of any funds legally available for such
payment, and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to participate in those dividends.
Liquidation Rights
Upon the Company’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of the outstanding
shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the Company’s assets legally available for distribution to
the Company’s shareholders, before any distribution of assets is made to holders of Common Stock or any other Series A Junior
Stock, a liquidating distribution in the amount of a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary
share), plus the sum of any declared and unpaid dividends for prior Series A Dividend Periods prior to the Series A Dividend
Period in which the liquidation distribution is made and any declared and unpaid dividends for the then current Series A
Dividend Period in which the liquidation distribution is made to the date of such liquidation distribution. After payment of the
full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have no right
or claim to any of the Company’s remaining assets.
In the event that, upon any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the available assets of
the Company are insufficient to pay the amount of the liquidating distributions on all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on all shares of Series A Parity Stock in the distribution of assets upon any
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, then the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and such Series A
Parity Stock shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they
respectively would be entitled.
The merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other entities or the sale, lease, exchange or other
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (for cash, securities or other consideration) shall not be deemed
to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up. If the Company enters into any merger or consolidation
transaction with or into any other entity and the Company is not the surviving entity in such transaction, the Series A Preferred
Stock may be converted into shares of the surviving or successor corporation or the direct or indirect parent of the surviving or
successor corporation having terms identical to the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock.
Because the Company is a holding company, the Company’s rights and the rights of the Company’s creditors and
shareholders, including the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, to participate in the distribution of assets of any of the
Company’s subsidiaries upon that subsidiary’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up will be subject to
the prior claims of that subsidiary’s creditors, except to the extent that the Company is a creditor with recognized claims against
that subsidiary.
Conversion Rights
The Series A Preferred Stock shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any other of the Company’s property,
interests or securities.
Redemption
The Series A Preferred Stock shall not be subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund or other similar
provision.
Neither the holders of Series A Preferred Stock nor the holders of the related depositary shares shall have the right to
require the redemption or repurchase of the Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, under the Federal Reserve risk-based capital
176
rules applicable to bank holding companies, any redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be subject to prior approval of
the Federal Reserve.
Optional Redemption
The Company may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at its option, on any Series A Dividend
Payment Date on or after April 1, 2023, with not less than 30 days’ and not more than 60 days’ notice (“Series A Optional
Redemption”), subject to the approval of the appropriate federal banking agency, at the redemption price provided below.
Dividends will not accumulate on those shares of Series A Preferred Stock on and after the redemption date.
Redemption Following a Regulatory Capital Event
The Company may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole but not in part, at its option, for cash, at any time
within 90 days following a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event, subject to the approval of the appropriate federal banking
agency, at the redemption price provided below (“Regulatory Event Redemption”). A “Regulatory Capital Treatment Event”
means a good faith determination by the Company that, as a result of any:
1.
2.
3.
amendment to, clarification of, or change (including any announced prospective change) in, the laws or
regulations of the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States that is enacted or becomes
effective after the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock;
proposed change in those laws or regulations that is announced or becomes effective after the initial issuance of
the Series A Preferred Stock; or
official administrative decision or judicial decision or administrative action or other official pronouncement
interpreting or applying those laws or regulations that is announced or becomes effective after the initial issuance
of the Series A Preferred Stock;
there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Company will not be entitled to treat the full liquidation value of the Series A
Preferred Stock then outstanding as “Tier 1 Capital” (or its equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy laws or regulations
of the Federal Reserve Board (or, as and if applicable, the capital adequacy laws or regulations of any successor appropriate
federal banking agency), as then in effect and applicable, for as long as any share of Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding.
Dividends will not accumulate on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock on and after the redemption date.
Redemption Price
The redemption price for any redemption of Series A Preferred Stock, whether a Series A Optional Redemption or
Regulatory Event Redemption, shall be equal to $1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock (equivalent to $25 per depositary
share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends (without regard to any undeclared dividends) to, but excluding, the date of
redemption.
Redemption Procedures
If the Company elects to redeem any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall provide notice to the
holders of record of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed, not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days
before the date fixed for redemption thereof (provided, however, that if the shares of Series A Preferred Stock or the depositary
shares representing the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are held in book-entry form through DTC, the Company may give
this notice in any manner permitted by DTC). Any notice given as provided in this paragraph shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives this notice, and any defect in this notice or in the provision of this
notice, to any holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not affect the redemption of any
other shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each notice of redemption shall state:
1.
2.
3.
4.
the redemption date;
the redemption price;
if fewer than all shares of Series A Preferred Stock are to be redeemed, the number of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock to be redeemed; and
the manner in which holders of Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption may obtain payment of the
redemption price in respect to those shares.
177
If notice of redemption of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock has been given and if the funds necessary for such
redemption have been set aside by the Company in trust for the benefit of the holders of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock
so called for redemption, then from and after the redemption date such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall no longer be
deemed outstanding, all dividends with respect to such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall cease to accumulate from the
redemption date and all rights of the holders of such shares shall terminate, except the right to receive the redemption price,
without interest.
In the case of any redemption of only part of the Series A Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares of Series
A Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall be selected either pro rata or by lot or in such other manner as the Company’s Board (or
a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board) determines to be fair and equitable and permitted by the rules of any
stock exchange on which the Series A Preferred Stock is listed. The Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Board) shall
have the full power and authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be
redeemed from time to time.
Voting Rights
Registered owners of Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights, except as set forth below or as
otherwise required by applicable law. To the extent that owners of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, each holder of
Series A Preferred Stock shall have one vote per share.
Whenever dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock or any other class or series of Preferred Stock ranking
equally with the Series A Preferred Stock, which shall include the Series B Preferred Stock, as to payment of dividends, and
upon which voting rights equivalent to those described in this paragraph have been conferred and are exercisable, have not been
declared and paid in an aggregate amount equal to, as to any class or series, the equivalent of at least six quarterly Series A
Dividend Periods, whether or not for consecutive Series A Dividend Periods (a “Series A Nonpayment”), the holders of
outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock voting as a class with holders of shares of any other series of the Company’s
Preferred Stock ranking equally with the Series A Preferred Stock, which shall include the Series B Preferred Stock, as to
payment of dividends, and upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable (“Series A Voting Parity
Stock”), shall be entitled to vote for the election of two additional directors of the Company’s Board on the terms set forth
below (and to fill any vacancies in the terms of such directorships) (the “Preferred Stock Directors”). Holders of all series of
Series A Voting Parity Stock shall vote as a single class. In the event that the holders of the shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock are entitled to vote as described in this paragraph, the number of members of the Company’s Board at the time shall be
increased by two directors, and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right, as members of that class, as
outlined above, to elect two directors at a special meeting called at the request of the holders of record of at least 20% of the
aggregate voting power of the Series A Preferred Stock or any other series of Series A Voting Parity Stock (unless such request
is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the Company’s next annual or special meeting of the shareholders, in
which event such election shall be held at such next annual or special meeting of the shareholders), provided that the election of
any Preferred Stock Directors shall not cause the Company to violate the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE (or
any other exchange on which the Company’s securities may at such time be listed) that listed companies must have a majority
of independent directors, and provided further that at no time shall the Company’s Board include more than two Preferred Stock
Directors.
When the Company has paid full dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock for the equivalent of at least four Series A
Dividend Periods following a Series A Nonpayment, the voting rights described above shall terminate, except as expressly
provided by law. The voting rights described above are subject to re-vesting upon each and every subsequent Series A
Nonpayment.
Upon termination of the right of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series A Voting Parity Stock to vote
for Preferred Stock Directors as described above, the term of office of all Preferred Stock Directors then in office elected by
only those holders shall terminate immediately. Whenever the term of office of the Preferred Stock Directors ends and the
related voting rights have expired, the number of directors automatically shall be decreased to the number of directors as
otherwise would prevail. Any Preferred Stock Director may be removed at any time by the holders of record of a majority of
the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock (together with holders of any Series A Voting Parity Stock) when they
have the voting rights described above.
Under regulations adopted by the Federal Reserve, if the holders of any series of preferred stock are or become entitled
to vote for the election of directors, such series shall be deemed a class of voting securities and a holder of 25% or more of the
series, or less if it otherwise exercises a “controlling influence” over the Company, will be subject to regulation as a bank
holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (the “BHC Act”). In addition, at the time the series is deemed
a class of voting securities, any other bank holding company will be required to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve
to acquire or retain 5% or more of that series. Any other person (other than a bank holding company) will be required to obtain
the non-objection of the Federal Reserve under the Change in Bank Control Act of 1978, as amended, to acquire or retain 10%
or more of that series.
178
So long as any shares of Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company will not, without the affirmative vote or
consent of holders of at least 66 2/3% in voting power of the Series A Preferred Stock and any Series A Voting Parity Stock,
voting together as a class, authorize, create or issue any capital stock ranking senior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to
dividends or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or reclassify any authorized capital stock into
any such shares of such capital stock or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any
such shares of capital stock. So long as any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company will not,
without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% in voting power of the Series A Preferred Stock, amend, alter or
repeal any provision of the applicable Articles of Amendment or the Company’s Articles, including by merger, consolidation or
otherwise, so as to affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series A Preferred Stock.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the following shall be deemed to affect the powers, preferences or special
rights of the Series A Preferred Stock:
1.
2.
3.
any increase in the amount of authorized Common Stock or authorized Preferred Stock, or any increase or
decrease in the number of shares of any series of Preferred Stock, or the authorization, creation and issuance of
other classes or series of capital stock, in each case ranking on parity with or junior to the Series A Preferred Stock
as to dividends or distribution of assets upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up;
a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity in which the shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock remain outstanding; and
a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity in which the shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock are converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving entity or any entity, directly or
indirectly, controlling such surviving entity and such new preference securities have powers, preferences and
special rights that are not materially less favorable than the Series A Preferred Stock.
The foregoing voting rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not apply if, at or prior to the time when
the act with respect to which the vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock shall have been redeemed or called for redemption upon proper notice and the Company shall have set aside sufficient
funds for the benefit of holders of Series A Preferred Stock to effect the redemption.
Depositary, Transfer Agent and Registrar
Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and Computershare Inc. jointly serve as the depositary, transfer agent and
registrar for the Series A Preferred Stock.
Calculation Agent
The Company shall appoint a calculation agent for the Series A Preferred Stock prior to the commencement of the
Series A Floating Rate Period. The Company may appoint itself or an affiliate as the calculation agent.
Series B Preferred Stock
Ranking
With respect to the payment of dividends and distributions upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up,
the Series B Preferred Stock shall rank (i) senior to the Company’s Common Stock and any other class or series of Preferred
Stock that by its terms ranks junior to the Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) equally with the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock
and any future series of Preferred Stock that does not, by its terms, rank junior or senior to the Series B Preferred Stock, and
(iii) junior to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities and any class or series of Preferred Stock that expressly
provides in the articles of amendment creating such Preferred Stock that such series ranks senior to the Series B Preferred Stock
(subject to any requisite consents prior to issuance).
The Series B Preferred Stock shall not be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or series of
the Company’s capital stock or other securities and shall not be subject to any sinking fund or other obligation to redeem or
repurchase the Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock shall not be secured, shall not be guaranteed by the
Company or any of Company’s affiliates and shall not be subject to any other arrangement that legally or economically
enhances the ranking of the Series B Preferred Stock.
179
Dividends
Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, only when, as, and if declared by the Company’s
Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board), out of assets legally available under applicable law for
payment, non-cumulative cash dividends based on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share of Series B Preferred Stock,
and no more, at a rate equal to 6.375% per annum (equivalent to $1.59375 per depositary share per annum), for each quarterly
Series B Dividend Period occurring from, and including, the original issue date of the Series B Preferred Stock to, but
excluding, July 1, 2026 (the “Series B Fixed Rate Period”), and thereafter, three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 408.8 basis
points per annum, subject to potential adjustment as provided in clause (iii) of the definition of three-month LIBOR, for each
quarterly Series B Dividend Period beginning July 1, 2026 (the “Series B Floating Rate Period”). A “Series B Dividend Period”
means the period from, and including, each Series B Dividend Payment Date (as defined below) to, but excluding, the next
succeeding Series B Dividend Payment Date, except for the initial Series B Dividend Period, which shall be the period from,
and including, April 1, 2022 to, but excluding, the next succeeding Series B Dividend Payment Date.
When, as, and if declared by the Company’s Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board), the
Company shall pay cash dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock quarterly, in arrears, on January 1, April 1, July 1 and
October 1 of each year (each such date, a “Series B Dividend Payment Date”). The Company shall pay cash dividends to the
holders of record of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock as they appear on the Company’s stock register on the applicable
record date, which will be the fifteenth calendar day before that Series B Dividend Payment Date or such other record date
fixed by the Company’s Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board) that is not more than 60 nor less than
10 days prior to such Series B Dividend Payment Date.
If any Series B Dividend Payment Date on or prior to July 1, 2026, is a day that is not a Series B Business Day (as
defined below), then the dividend with respect to that Series B Dividend Payment Date shall instead be paid on the immediately
succeeding Series B Business Day, without interest or other payment in respect of such delayed payment. If any Series B
Dividend Payment Date after July 1, 2026 is a day that is not a Series B Business Day, then the Series B Dividend Payment
Date shall be the immediately succeeding Series B Business Day unless such day falls in the next calendar month, in which case
the Series B Dividend Payment Date shall instead be the immediately preceding day that is a Series B Business Day, and
dividends will accumulate to the Series B Dividend Payment Date as so adjusted. A “Series B Business Day” for the Series B
Fixed Rate Period means any weekday in New York, New York that is not a day on which banking institutions in that city are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to be closed. A “Series B Business Day” for the Series B Floating
Rate Period means any weekday in New York, New York that is not a day on which banking institutions in that city are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to be closed, and additionally, is a London Banking Day (as
defined below).
The Company shall calculate dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock for the Series B Fixed Rate Period on the basis
of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall calculate dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock for the
Series B Floating Rate Period on the basis of the actual number of days in a Series B Dividend Period and a 360-day year.
Dollar amounts resulting from that calculation shall be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward.
Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall not be cumulative or mandatory. If the Company’s Board (or a duly authorized
committee of the Company’s Board) does not declare a dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock for, or the Company’s Board
authorizes and the Company declares less than a full dividend in respect of, any Series B Dividend Period, the holders shall
have no right to receive any dividend or a full dividend, as the case may be, for the Series B Dividend Period, and the Company
shall have no obligation to pay a dividend or to pay full dividends for that Series B Dividend Period at any time, whether or not
dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock or any other series of Company’s Preferred Stock or Common Stock are declared for
any future Series B Dividend Period.
Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall accumulate from the issue date at the then-applicable dividend rate on
the liquidation preference amount of $1,000 per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary share). If the Company issues additional
shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, dividends on those additional shares shall accumulate from the issue date of those
additional shares at the then-applicable dividend rate. The dividend rate for each Series B Dividend Period in the Series B
Floating Rate Period shall be determined by the calculation agent using three-month LIBOR as in effect on the second London
Banking Day prior to the beginning of the Series B Dividend Period, which date is the “Series B Dividend Determination Date”
for the relevant Series B Dividend Period. The calculation agent then shall add three-month LIBOR as determined on the Series
B Dividend Determination Date and the applicable spread. Once the dividend rate for the Series B Preferred Stock is
determined, the calculation agent shall deliver that information to the Company and the Company’s transfer agent. Absent
manifest error, the determination by the calculation agent or, for the avoidance of doubt, by the IFA in clause (iii) below, of the
dividend rate for a Series B Dividend Period for the Series B Preferred Stock shall be final. A “London Banking Day” is any
day on which commercial banks are open for dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars in the London interbank market.
180
The term “three-month LIBOR” means, for each Series B Dividend Determination Date related to the Series B
Floating Rate Period, the rate determined by the calculation agent as follows:
(i) The London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars for a three-month period, as that rate appears on
Reuters screen page “LIBOR01” (or any successor or replacement page) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London
time, on the relevant Series B Dividend Determination Date.
(ii) If no offered rate appears on Reuters screen page “LIBOR01” (or any successor or replacement page) on the
relevant Series B Dividend Determination Date at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, then the calculation
agent, in consultation with the Company, shall select four major banks in the London interbank market and shall
request each of their principal London offices to provide a quotation of the rate at which three-month deposits in
U.S. dollars in amounts of at least $1,000,000 are offered by it to prime banks in the London interbank market, on
that date and at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, three-month LIBOR shall be the arithmetic
average (rounded upward if necessary to the nearest .00001 of 1%) of the quotations provided. Otherwise, the
calculation agent in consultation with the Company shall select three major banks in New York City and shall
request each of them to provide a quotation of the rate offered by it at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City
time, on the Series B Dividend Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks for a three-
month period for the applicable Series B Dividend Period in an amount of at least $1,000,000. If three quotations
are provided, three-month LIBOR shall be the arithmetic average of the quotations provided. Otherwise, if a
LIBOR Event (as defined below) has not occurred, three-month LIBOR for the next Series B Dividend Period
shall be equal to three-month LIBOR in effect for the then current Series B Dividend Period or, in the case of the
first Series B Dividend Period in the Series B Floating Rate Period, the most recent rate on which three-month
LIBOR could have been determined in accordance with the first sentence of this paragraph had the dividend rate
been a floating rate during the Series B Fixed Rate Period.
(iii) Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) above, if the Company, in its sole discretion, determines on the relevant Series
B Dividend Determination Date that the three-month LIBOR has been permanently discontinued or is no longer
viewed as an acceptable benchmark for securities like the Series B Preferred Stock, and the Company has notified
the calculation agent (if it is not the Company) of such determination (a “LIBOR Event”), then the calculation
agent shall use, as directed by the Company, as a substitute or successor base rate (the “Alternative Rate”) for
each future Series B Dividend Determination Date the alternative reference rate selected by the central bank,
reserve bank, monetary authority or any similar institution (including any committee or working group thereof)
that is consistent with market practice regarding a substitute for the three-month LIBOR. As part of such
substitution, the calculation agent shall, as directed by the Company, make such adjustment to the Alternative
Rate or the spread thereon, as well as the business day convention, the Series B Dividend Determination Date and
related provisions and definitions (“Adjustments”), in each case that are consistent with market practice for the
use of such Alternative Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines that there is no
alternative reference rate selected by the central bank, reserve bank, monetary authority or any similar institution
(including any committee or working group thereof) that is consistent with market practice regarding a substitute
for three-month LIBOR, the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint an independent financial advisor
(“IFA”) to determine an appropriate Alternative Rate and any Adjustments, and the decision of the IFA shall be
binding on the Company, the calculation agent and the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock. If on any Series B
Dividend Determination Date during the Series B Floating Rate Period (which may be the first Series B Dividend
Determination Date of the Series B Floating Rate Period) a LIBOR Event has occurred prior to such Series B
Dividend Determination Date and for any reason an Alternative Rate has not been determined or there is no such
market practice for the use of such Alternative Rate (and, in each case, an IFA has not determined an appropriate
Alternative Rate and Adjustments or an IFA has not been appointed) as of such Series B Dividend Determination
Date, then commencing on such Series B Dividend Determination Date the dividend rate, business day convention
and manner of calculating dividends applicable during the Series B Fixed Rate Period shall be in effect for the
applicable Series B Dividend Period and shall remain in effect during the remainder of the Series B Floating Rate
Period.
Priority Regarding Dividends
During a Series B Dividend Period, so long as any share of Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding,
1.
no dividend shall be declared and paid or set aside for payment and no distribution shall be declared and made or
set aside for payment on any Series B Junior Stock (as defined below) (other than a dividend payable solely in
shares of Series B Junior Stock or any dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholder rights plan
or the redemption or repurchase of any rights under such a plan, including with respect to any successor
shareholder rights plan);
181
2.
3.
no shares of Series B Junior Stock shall be repurchased, redeemed, or otherwise acquired for consideration by the
Company, directly or indirectly (other than as a result of a reclassification of Series B Junior Stock for or into
other Series B Junior Stock, or the exchange for or conversion into Series B Junior Stock, through the use of the
proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of other shares of Series B Junior Stock or pursuant to a
contractually binding requirement to buy Series B Junior Stock pursuant to a binding stock repurchase plan
existing prior to the most recently completed Series B Dividend Period), nor shall any monies be paid to or made
available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such securities by the Company; and
no shares of Series B Parity Stock (as defined below) shall be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for
consideration by the Company (other than pursuant to pro rata offers to purchase all, or a pro rata portion, of the
Series B Preferred Stock and such Series B Parity Stock, through the use of the proceeds of a substantially
contemporaneous sale of other shares of Series B Parity Stock or Series B Junior Stock, as a result of a
reclassification of Series B Parity Stock for or into other Series B Parity Stock, or by conversion into or exchange
for other Series B Parity Stock or Series B Junior Stock),
unless, in each case of clauses (1), (2) and (3) above, the full dividends for the most recently completed Series B Dividend
Period on all outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock have been declared and paid in full or declared and a sum
sufficient for the payment of those dividends has been set aside. The foregoing limitations will not apply to purchases or
acquisitions of the Company’s Series B Junior Stock pursuant to any employee or director incentive or benefit plan or
arrangement (including any of the Company’s employment, severance, or consulting agreements) of the Company or of any of
its subsidiaries.
Except as provided below, for so long as any share of Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding, the Company
shall not declare, pay, or set aside for payment full dividends on any Series B Parity Stock unless the Company has paid in full,
or set aside payment in full, in respect of all accumulated dividends for all Series B Dividend Periods for outstanding shares of
Preferred Stock. To the extent that the Company declares dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock and on any Series B Parity
Stock but cannot make full payment of such declared dividends, the Company shall allocate the dividend payments on a pro
rata basis among the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the holders of any Series B Parity Stock then
outstanding. For purposes of calculating the pro rata allocation of partial dividend payments, the Company shall allocate
dividend payments based on the ratio between the then current and unpaid dividend payments due on the shares of Series B
Preferred Stock and (1) in the case of cumulative Series B Parity Stock, the aggregate of the accumulated and unpaid dividends
due on any such Series B Parity Stock, and (2) in the case of non-cumulative Series B Parity Stock, the aggregate of the
declared but unpaid dividends due on any such Series B Parity Stock. No interest shall be payable in respect of any dividend
payment on Series B Preferred Stock that may be in arrears.
As used herein, “Series B Junior Stock” means the Company’s Common Stock and any other class or series of the
Company’s capital stock over which the Series B Preferred Stock has preference or priority in the payment of dividends or in
the distribution of assets on the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and “Series B Parity Stock” means any other
class or series of the Company’s capital stock that ranks equally with the Series B Preferred Stock in the payment of dividends
and in the distribution of assets on the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, which will include the Series A
Preferred Stock.
Subject to the conditions described above, and not otherwise, dividends (payable in cash, stock, or otherwise), as may
be determined by the Company’s Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board), may be declared and paid
on the Company’s Common Stock and any Series B Junior Stock from time to time out of any funds legally available for such
payment, and the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to participate in those dividends.
Liquidation Rights
Upon the Company’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of the outstanding
shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the Company’s assets legally available for distribution to
the Company’s shareholders, before any distribution of assets is made to holders of Common Stock or any other Series B Junior
Stock, a liquidating distribution in the amount of a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary
share), plus the sum of any declared and unpaid dividends for prior Series B Dividend Periods prior to the Series B Dividend
Period in which the liquidation distribution is made and any declared and unpaid dividends for the then current Series B
Dividend Period in which the liquidation distribution is made to the date of such liquidation distribution. After payment of the
full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have no right
or claim to any of the Company’s remaining assets.
In the event that, upon any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the available assets of
the Company are insufficient to pay the amount of the liquidating distributions on all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred
Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on all shares of Series B Parity Stock in the distribution of assets upon any
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, then the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and such Series B
182
Parity Stock shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they
respectively would be entitled.
The merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other entities or the sale, lease, exchange or other
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (for cash, securities or other consideration) shall not be deemed
to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up. If the Company enters into any merger or consolidation
transaction with or into any other entity and the Company is not the surviving entity in such transaction, the Series B Preferred
Stock may be converted into shares of the surviving or successor corporation or the direct or indirect parent of the surviving or
successor corporation having terms identical to the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock.
Because the Company is a holding company, the Company’s rights and the rights of the Company’s creditors and
shareholders, including the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, to participate in the distribution of assets of any of the
Company’s subsidiaries upon that subsidiary’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up will be subject to
the prior claims of that subsidiary’s creditors, except to the extent that the Company is a creditor with recognized claims against
that subsidiary.
Conversion Rights
The Series B Preferred Stock shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any other of the Company’s property,
interests or securities.
Redemption
The Series B Preferred Stock shall not be subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund or other similar
provision.
Neither the holders of Series B Preferred Stock nor the holders of the related depositary shares shall have the right to
require the redemption or repurchase of the Series B Preferred Stock. In addition, under the Federal Reserve risk-based capital
rules applicable to bank holding companies, any redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to prior approval of
the Federal Reserve.
Optional Redemption
The Company may redeem the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at its option, on any Series B Dividend
Payment Date on or after July 1, 2024, with not less than 30 days’ and not more than 60 days’ notice (“Series B Optional
Redemption”), subject to the approval of the appropriate federal banking agency, at the redemption price provided below.
Dividends shall not accumulate on those shares of Series B Preferred Stock on and after the redemption date.
Redemption Following a Regulatory Capital Event
The Company may redeem the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole but not in part, at its option, for cash, at any time
within 90 days following a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event, subject to the approval of the appropriate federal banking
agency, at the redemption price provided below (“Regulatory Event Redemption”). A “Regulatory Capital Treatment Event”
means a good faith determination by the Company that, as a result of any:
1.
2.
3.
amendment to, clarification of, or change (including any announced prospective change) in, the laws or
regulations of the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States that is enacted or becomes
effective after the initial issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock;
proposed change in those laws or regulations that is announced or becomes effective after the initial issuance of
the Series B Preferred Stock; or
official administrative decision or judicial decision or administrative action or other official pronouncement
interpreting or applying those laws or regulations that is announced or becomes effective after the initial issuance
of the Series B Preferred Stock;
there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Company shall not be entitled to treat the full liquidation value of the Series B
Preferred Stock then outstanding as “Tier 1 Capital” (or its equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy laws or regulations
of the Federal Reserve Board (or, as and if applicable, the capital adequacy laws or regulations of any successor appropriate
federal banking agency), as then in effect and applicable, for as long as any share of Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding.
Dividends will not accumulate on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock on and after the redemption date.
183
Redemption Price
The redemption price for any redemption of Series B Preferred Stock, whether a Series B Optional Redemption or
Regulatory Event Redemption, shall be equal to $1,000 per share of Series B Preferred Stock (equivalent to $25 per depositary
share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends (without regard to any undeclared dividends) to, but excluding, the date of
redemption.
Redemption Procedures
If the Company elects to redeem any shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the Company shall provide notice to the
holders of record of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed, not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days
before the date fixed for redemption thereof (provided, however, that if the shares of Series B Preferred Stock or the depositary
shares representing the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are held in book-entry form through DTC, the Company may give
this notice in any manner permitted by DTC). Any notice given as provided in this paragraph shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives this notice, and any defect in this notice or in the provision of this
notice, to any holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not affect the redemption of any
other shares of Series B Preferred Stock. Each notice of redemption shall state:
1.
2.
3.
4.
the redemption date;
the redemption price;
if fewer than all shares of Series B Preferred Stock are to be redeemed, the number of shares of Series B Preferred
Stock to be redeemed; and
the manner in which holders of Series B Preferred Stock called for redemption may obtain payment of the
redemption price in respect to those shares.
If notice of redemption of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock has been given and if the funds necessary for such
redemption have been set aside by the Company in trust for the benefit of the holders of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock
so called for redemption, then from and after the redemption date such shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall no longer be
deemed outstanding, all dividends with respect to such shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall cease to accumulate from the
redemption date and all rights of the holders of such shares will terminate, except the right to receive the redemption price,
without interest.
In the case of any redemption of only part of the Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares of Series
B Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall be selected either pro rata or by lot or in such other manner as the Company’s Board (or
a duly authorized committee of the Company’s Board) determines to be fair and equitable and permitted by the rules of any
stock exchange on which the Series B Preferred Stock is listed. The Company’s Board (or a duly authorized committee of the
Company’s Board) shall have the full power and authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of Series B
Preferred Stock may be redeemed from time to time.
Voting Rights
Registered owners of Series B Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights, except as set forth below or as
otherwise required by applicable law. To the extent that owners of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, each holder of
Series B Preferred Stock will have one vote per share.
Whenever dividends payable on the Series B Preferred Stock or any other class or series of Preferred Stock ranking
equally with the Series B Preferred Stock, which shall include the Series A Preferred Stock, as to payment of dividends, and
upon which voting rights equivalent to those described in this paragraph have been conferred and are exercisable, have not been
declared and paid in an aggregate amount equal to, as to any class or series, the equivalent of at least six quarterly Series B
Dividend Periods, whether or not for consecutive Series B Dividend Periods (a “Series B Nonpayment”), the holders of
outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock voting as a class with holders of shares of any other series of the Company’s
Preferred Stock ranking equally with the Series B Preferred Stock, which shall include the Series A Preferred Stock, as to
payment of dividends, and upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable (“Series B Voting Parity
Stock”), shall be entitled to vote for the election of two additional directors of the Company’s Board on the terms set forth
below (and to fill any vacancies in the terms of such directorships) (the “Preferred Stock Directors”). Holders of all series of
Series B Voting Parity Stock shall vote as a single class. In the event that the holders of the shares of the Series B Preferred
Stock are entitled to vote as described in this paragraph, the number of members of the Company’s Board at the time will be
increased by two directors, and the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right, as members of that class, as
outlined above, to elect two directors at a special meeting called at the request of the holders of record of at least 20% of the
184
aggregate voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock or any other series of Series B Voting Parity Stock (unless such request
is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the Company’s next annual or special meeting of the shareholders, in
which event such election shall be held at such next annual or special meeting of the shareholders), provided that the election of
any Preferred Stock Directors shall not cause the Company to violate the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE (or
any other exchange on which the Company’s securities may at such time be listed) that listed companies must have a majority
of independent directors, and provided further that at no time shall the Company’s Board include more than two Preferred Stock
Directors.
When the Company has paid full dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock for the equivalent of at least four Series B
Dividend Periods following a Series B Nonpayment, the voting rights described above shall terminate, except as expressly
provided by law. The voting rights described above are subject to re-vesting upon each and every subsequent Series B
Nonpayment. Upon termination of the right of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and Series B Voting Parity Stock to
vote for Preferred Stock Directors as described above, the term of office of all Preferred Stock Directors then in office elected
by only those holders shall terminate immediately. Whenever the term of office of the Preferred Stock Directors ends and the
related voting rights have expired, the number of directors automatically will be decreased to the number of directors as
otherwise would prevail. Any Preferred Stock Director may be removed at any time by the holders of record of a majority of
the outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock (together with holders of any Series B Voting Parity Stock) when they
have the voting rights described above.
Under regulations adopted by the Federal Reserve, if the holders of any series of Preferred Stock are or become
entitled to vote for the election of directors, such series will be deemed a class of voting securities and a holder of 25% or more
of the series, or less if it otherwise exercises a “controlling influence” over the Company, will be subject to regulation as a bank
holding company under the BHC Act. In addition, at the time the series is deemed a class of voting securities, any other bank
holding company will be required to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve to acquire or retain 5% or more of that
series. Any other person (other than a bank holding company) will be required to obtain the non-objection of the Federal
Reserve under the Change in Bank Control Act of 1978, as amended, to acquire or retain 10% or more of that series.
So long as any shares of Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote or
consent of holders of at least 66 2/3% in voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock and any Series B Voting Parity Stock,
voting together as a class, authorize, create or issue any capital stock ranking senior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to
dividends or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or reclassify any authorized capital stock into
any such shares of such capital stock or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any
such shares of capital stock. So long as any shares of the Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company shall not,
without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% in voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock, amend, alter or
repeal any provision of the applicable Articles of Amendment or the Company’s Articles, including by merger, consolidation or
otherwise, so as to affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series B Preferred Stock.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the following shall be deemed to affect the powers, preferences or special
rights of the Series B Preferred Stock:
1.
2.
3.
any increase in the amount of authorized Common Stock or authorized Preferred Stock, or any increase or
decrease in the number of shares of any series of Preferred Stock, or the authorization, creation and issuance of
other classes or series of capital stock, in each case ranking on parity with or junior to the Series B Preferred Stock
as to dividends or distribution of assets upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up;
a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity in which the shares of the Series B Preferred
Stock remain outstanding; and
a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity in which the shares of the Series B Preferred
Stock are converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving entity or any entity, directly or
indirectly, controlling such surviving entity and such new preference securities have powers, preferences and
special rights that are not materially less favorable than the Series B Preferred Stock.
The foregoing voting rights of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall not apply if, at or prior to the time when
the act with respect to which the vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred
Stock shall have been redeemed or called for redemption upon proper notice and the Company shall have set aside sufficient
funds for the benefit of holders of Series B Preferred Stock to effect the redemption.
Information Rights
During any period in which the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and any shares of
Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide any requesting
185
beneficial owner a copy of the Company’s most recently filed “Consolidated Financial Statements for Holding Companies- FR
Y-9C” and “Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income for a Bank With Domestic Offices Only-FFIEC 041,” in each case
or any applicable successor form. Any such request must be made in writing addressed to Raymond James Financial, Inc.,
Attention: Kristie Waugh, Senior Vice President, Investor Relations, 880 Carillon Parkway, St. Petersburg, Florida 33716.
Depositary, Transfer Agent and Registrar
Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and Computershare Inc. jointly serve as the depositary, transfer agent and
registrar for the Series B Preferred Stock.
Calculation Agent
The Company shall appoint a calculation agent for the Series B Preferred Stock prior to the commencement of the
Series B Floating Rate Period. The Company may appoint itself or an affiliate as the calculation agent.
Description of Depositary Shares
The following description of the Depositary Shares of the Company, related provisions of the Company’s Articles and
By-Laws and applicable Florida law is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the Articles, By-
Laws and applicable Florida law.
Each Depositary Share represents a 1/40th interest in a share of the Series A Preferred Stock or the Series B Preferred
Stock, as applicable, and is evidenced by depositary receipts. The Company has deposited the underlying shares of each series
of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock with a depositary pursuant to respective deposit agreements (each
a “Deposit Agreement”) among the Company, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and Computershare Inc., acting jointly as
depositary (the “Depositary”), and the holders from time to time of the depositary receipts described therein. Subject to the
terms of the applicable Deposit Agreement, the Depositary Shares shall be entitled to all the powers, preferences and special
rights of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, as applicable, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a
share of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock those Depositary Shares represent.
Series A Depositary Shares
Dividends and Other Distributions
Each dividend payable on a Series A Depositary Share shall be in an amount equal to 1/40th of the dividend declared
and payable on each related share of Series A Preferred Stock.
The Depositary will distribute all dividends and other cash distributions received on the Series A Preferred Stock to the
holders of record of the depositary receipts in proportion to the number of Series A Depositary Shares held by each holder. In
the event of a distribution other than in cash, the Depositary will distribute property received by it to the holders of record of the
depositary receipts in proportion to the number of Series A Depositary Shares held by each holder, unless the Depositary
determines that this distribution is not feasible, in which case the Depositary may, with the Company’s approval, adopt a
method of distribution that it deems practicable, including the sale of the property and distribution of the net proceeds of that
sale to the holders of the depositary receipts.
If the calculation of a dividend or other cash distribution results in an amount that is a fraction of a cent and that
fraction is equal to or greater than $0.005, the Depositary will round that amount up to the next highest whole cent and will
request that the Company pay the resulting additional amount to the Depositary for the relevant dividend or other cash
distribution. If the fractional amount is less than $0.005, the Depositary will disregard that fractional amount.
Record dates for the payment of dividends and other matters relating to the Series A Depositary Shares will be the
same as the corresponding record dates for the applicable series of Series A Preferred Stock.
The amount paid as dividends or otherwise distributable by the Depositary with respect to the Series A Depositary
Shares or the underlying Series A Preferred Stock will be reduced by any amounts required to be withheld by the Company or
the Depositary on account of taxes or other governmental charges. The Depositary may refuse to make any payment or
distribution, or any transfer, exchange, or withdrawal of any Series A Depositary Shares or the shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock until such taxes or other governmental charges are paid.
186
Liquidation Preference
In the event of the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, a holder of Series A Depositary Shares will
receive the fraction of the liquidation preference accorded each share of underlying Series A Preferred Stock represented by the
Series A Depositary Shares.
The Company’s merger or consolidation with one or more other entities or the sale, lease, exchange or other transfer of
all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (for cash, securities or other consideration) will not be deemed to be a voluntary
or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
Redemption of Series A Depositary Shares
If the Company redeems any series of the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, the related Series A Depositary
Shares also will be redeemed with the proceeds received by the Depositary from the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock
held by the Depositary. The redemption price per Series A Depositary Share will be 1/40th of the redemption price per share
payable with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock (or $25 per Series A Depositary Share), plus, as applicable, any
accumulated and unpaid dividends on the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption for the then-current
dividend period to, but excluding, the redemption date, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends.
If the Company redeems shares of the Series A Preferred Stock held by the Depositary, the Depositary will redeem, as
of the same redemption date, the number of Series A Depositary Shares representing those shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock so redeemed. If the Company redeems less than all of the outstanding Series A Depositary Shares, the Series A
Depositary Shares to be redeemed will be selected either pro rata or by lot. The Depositary will provide notice of redemption to
record holders of the depositary receipts not less than 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of the
applicable series of Series A Preferred Stock and the related Series A Depositary Shares.
Voting
Because each Series A Depositary Share represents a 1/40th ownership interest in a share of Series A Preferred Stock,
holders of depositary receipts will be entitled to vote 1/40th of a vote per Series A Depositary Share under those limited
circumstances in which holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote.
When the Depositary receives notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled
to vote, the Depositary will provide the information contained in the notice to the record holders of the Series A Depositary
Shares relating to the Series A Preferred Stock. Each record holder of the Series A Depositary Shares on the record date, which
will be the same date as the record date for the Series A Preferred Stock, may instruct the Depositary to vote the amount of the
Series A Preferred Stock represented by the holder’s Series A Depositary Shares. To the extent possible, the Depositary will
vote the maximum number of whole shares of the Series A Preferred Stock represented by Series A Depositary Shares in
accordance with the instructions it receives. The Company will agree to take all reasonable actions that the Depositary
determines are necessary to enable the Depositary to vote as instructed. If the Depositary does not receive specific instructions
from the holders of any Series A Depositary Shares representing the Series A Preferred Stock, it will abstain from voting with
respect to such shares (but may appear at the meeting with respect to such shares unless directed to the contrary).
Withdrawal of Series A Preferred Stock
Upon surrender of Series A Depositary Shares at the principal office of the Depositary, upon payment of any unpaid
amount due the Depositary, and subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, the owner of the Series A Depositary Shares
evidenced thereby will be entitled to delivery of the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and all money and other
property, if any, represented by such Series A Depositary Shares. Only whole shares of the Series A Preferred Stock may be
withdrawn. If the Series A Depositary Shares surrendered by the holder in connection with withdrawal exceed the number of
Series A Depositary Shares that represent the number of whole shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be withdrawn, the
Depositary will deliver to that holder at the same time a new depositary receipt evidencing the excess number of Series A
Depositary Shares. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock thus withdrawn will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such shares
under the Deposit Agreement or to receive Series A Depositary Shares therefor.
Resignation and Removal of the Depositary
The Depositary may resign at any time by delivering to Raymond James notice of its election to resign. The Company
may also remove or replace a depositary at any time. Any resignation or removal will take effect upon the earlier of the
appointment of a successor depositary and 30 days following such notice. The Company will appoint a successor depositary
within 30 days after delivery of the notice of resignation or removal. The successor must be a bank or trust company with its
principal office in the United States and have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million.
187
Listing
The Company’s Series A Depositary Shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “RJF PrA.”
The Series A Preferred Stock is not listed, and the Company does not expect that there will be any trading market for the Series
A Preferred Stock except as represented by the Series A Depositary Shares.
Depositary, Transfer Agent and Registrar
Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and Computershare Inc. jointly serve as the depositary, transfer agent and
registrar for the Series A Depositary Shares.
Miscellaneous
The Depositary will forward to the holders of Series A Depositary Shares any reports and communications from
Company with respect to the underlying Series A Preferred Stock. Neither the Company nor the Depositary will be liable if any
law or any circumstances beyond their control prevent or delay them from performing their obligations under the Deposit
Agreement. The obligations of the Company and a depositary under the Deposit Agreement are limited to performing their
duties without bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Company nor a depositary must prosecute or
defend any legal proceeding with respect to any Series A Depositary Shares or the underlying Series A Preferred Stock unless
they are furnished with satisfactory indemnity. Both the Company and the Depositary may rely on the written advice of counsel
or accountants, or information provided by holders of Series A Depositary Shares or other persons they believe in good faith to
be competent, and on documents they believe in good faith to be genuine and signed by a proper party. In the event a depositary
receives conflicting claims, requests or instructions from the Company and any holders of Series A Depositary Shares, the
Depositary will be entitled to act on the claims, requests or instructions received from the Company.
Series B Depositary Shares
Dividends and Other Distributions
Each dividend payable on a Series B Depositary Share shall be in an amount equal to 1/40th of the dividend declared
and payable on each related share of Series B Preferred Stock.
The Depositary will distribute all dividends and other cash distributions received on the Series B Preferred Stock to the
holders of record of the depositary receipts in proportion to the number of Series B Depositary Shares held by each holder. In
the event of a distribution other than in cash, the Depositary will distribute property received by it to the holders of record of the
depositary receipts in proportion to the number of Series B Depositary Shares held by each holder, unless the Depositary
determines that this distribution is not feasible, in which case the Depositary may, with the Company’s approval, adopt a
method of distribution that it deems practicable, including the sale of the property and distribution of the net proceeds of that
sale to the holders of the depositary receipts.
If the calculation of a dividend or other cash distribution results in an amount that is a fraction of a cent and that
fraction is equal to or greater than $0.005, the Depositary will round that amount up to the next highest whole cent and will
request that the Company pay the resulting additional amount to the Depositary for the relevant dividend or other cash
distribution. If the fractional amount is less than $0.005, the Depositary will disregard that fractional amount.
Record dates for the payment of dividends and other matters relating to the Series B Depositary Shares will be the
same as the corresponding record dates for the applicable series of Series B Preferred Stock.
The amount paid as dividends or otherwise distributable by the Depositary with respect to the Series B Depositary
Shares or the underlying Series B Preferred Stock will be reduced by any amounts required to be withheld by the Company or
the Depositary on account of taxes or other governmental charges. The Depositary may refuse to make any payment or
distribution, or any transfer, exchange, or withdrawal of any Series B Depositary Shares or the shares of the Series B Preferred
Stock until such taxes or other governmental charges are paid.
Liquidation Preference
In the event of the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, a holder of Series B Depositary Shares will
receive the fraction of the liquidation preference accorded each share of underlying Series B Preferred Stock represented by the
Series B Depositary Shares.
188
The Company’s merger or consolidation with one or more other entities or the sale, lease, exchange or other transfer of
all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (for cash, securities or other consideration) will not be deemed to be a voluntary
or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
Redemption of Series B Depositary Shares
If the Company redeems any series of the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, the related Series B Depositary
Shares also will be redeemed with the proceeds received by the Depositary from the redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock
held by the Depositary. The redemption price per Series B Depositary Share will be 1/40th of the redemption price per share
payable with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock (or $25 per Series B Depositary Share), plus, as applicable, any
accumulated and unpaid dividends on the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock called for redemption for the then-current
dividend period to, but excluding, the redemption date, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends.
If the Company redeems shares of the Series B Preferred Stock held by the Depositary, the Depositary will redeem, as
of the same redemption date, the number of Series B Depositary Shares representing those shares of the Series B Preferred
Stock so redeemed. If the Company redeems less than all of the outstanding Series B Depositary Shares, the Series B
Depositary Shares to be redeemed will be selected either pro rata or by lot. The Depositary will provide notice of redemption to
record holders of the depositary receipts not less than 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of the
applicable series of Series B Preferred Stock and the related Series B Depositary Shares.
Voting
Because each Series B Depositary Share represents a 1/40th ownership interest in a share of Series B Preferred Stock,
holders of depositary receipts will be entitled to vote 1/40th of a vote per Series B Depositary Share under those limited
circumstances in which holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to vote.
When the Depositary receives notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to
vote, the Depositary will provide the information contained in the notice to the record holders of the Series B Depositary Shares
relating to the Series B Preferred Stock. Each record holder of the Series B Depositary Shares on the record date, which will be
the same date as the record date for the Series B Preferred Stock, may instruct the Depositary to vote the amount of the Series B
Preferred Stock represented by the holder’s Series B Depositary Shares. To the extent possible, the Depositary will vote the
maximum number of whole shares of the Series B Preferred Stock represented by Series B Depositary Shares in accordance
with the instructions it receives. The Company will agree to take all reasonable actions that the Depositary determines are
necessary to enable the Depositary to vote as instructed. If the Depositary does not receive specific instructions from the holders
of any Series B Depositary Shares representing the Series B Preferred Stock, it will abstain from voting with respect to such
shares (but may appear at the meeting with respect to such shares unless directed to the contrary).
Withdrawal of Series B Preferred Stock
Upon surrender of Series B Depositary Shares at the principal office of the Depositary, upon payment of any unpaid
amount due the Depositary, and subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, the owner of the Series B Depositary Shares
evidenced thereby will be entitled to delivery of the number of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock and all money and other
property, if any, represented by such Series B Depositary Shares. Only whole shares of the Series B Preferred Stock may be
withdrawn. If the Series B Depositary Shares surrendered by the holder in connection with withdrawal exceed the number of
Series B Depositary Shares that represent the number of whole shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be withdrawn, the
Depositary will deliver to that holder at the same time a new depositary receipt evidencing the excess number of Series B
Depositary Shares. Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock thus withdrawn will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such shares
under the Deposit Agreement or to receive Series B Depositary Shares therefor.
Resignation and Removal of the Depositary
The Depositary may resign at any time by delivering to Raymond James notice of its election to resign. The Company
may also remove or replace a depositary at any time. Any resignation or removal will take effect upon the earlier of the
appointment of a successor depositary and 30 days following such notice. The Company will appoint a successor depositary
within 30 days after delivery of the notice of resignation or removal. The successor must be a bank or trust company with its
principal office in the United States and have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million.
