Biggest changeInvestments made by our different business lines involve a number of significant risks, including the following: 87 Table of Contents • companies in which investments are made may have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet their obligations under their securities, which may be accompanied by a deterioration in the value of their equity securities or any collateral or guarantees provided with respect to their debt; • companies or assets in which investments are made are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons and, as a result, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of those persons could have a material adverse impact on their business and prospects; • companies in which private equity investments are made may be businesses or divisions acquired from larger operating entities that may require a rebuilding or replacement of financial reporting, information technology, operational and other functions; • companies or assets in which investments are made may from time to time be parties to litigation, may be engaged in rapidly changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence and may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position; • instances of bribery, fraud and other deceptive practices committed by senior management of portfolio companies in which our funds or we invest may undermine our due diligence efforts with respect to such companies, and if such bribery, fraud or other deceptive practices are discovered, negatively affect the valuation of a fund's investments as well as contribute to overall market volatility that can negatively impact a fund's or our investment's program; • our funds may make investments that they do not advantageously dispose of prior to the date the applicable fund is dissolved, either by expiration of such fund's term or otherwise, resulting in a lower than expected return on the investments and, potentially, on the fund itself; • our portfolio companies generally have capital structures established on the basis of financial projections based primarily on management's judgments and assumptions, and general economic conditions and other factors may cause actual performance to fall short of these financial projections, which could cause a substantial decrease in the value of our equity holdings in the portfolio company and cause our funds' or our performance to fall short of our expectations; • executive officers, directors and employees of an equity sponsor may be named as defendants in litigation involving a company or asset in which an investment is made or is being made, and we or our funds may indemnify such executive officers, directors or employees for liability relating to such litigation; • we advise funds that invest in businesses that operate in a variety of industries that are subject to extensive domestic and foreign regulation (including companies that supply services to governmental agencies), such as the financial services industry, telecommunications industry, the defense and government services industry, the healthcare industry, oil and gas industry, the waste management industry and the food industry, which may involve greater risk due to rapidly changing market and governmental conditions in those sectors; • our transactions involve complex tax structuring that could be challenged or disregarded, which may result in losing treaty benefits or would otherwise adversely impact our investments; and • significant failures of our investments to comply with laws and regulations applicable to them could affect the ability of our funds or us to invest in other companies in certain industries in the future and could harm our reputation.

Biggest changeWe often make investments in companies, businesses and assets that, in of themselves, involve a high degree of risk, including those: (1) that have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet their obligations under their outstanding indebtedness, which may be accompanied by a significant deterioration in the value of their equity securities or any collateral or guarantees provided with respect to their debt, (2) that significantly depend on their founders and other key persons, the loss of whom could materially and adversely impact the investment, (3) that are businesses or divisions acquired from larger operating entities that require significant and costly rebuilding or replacement of business operations functions, (4) that are subject to litigation or regulatory scrutiny or may be at risk of having significant failures to comply with law (including practices or issues which may not be discovered through due diligence), (5) that are engaged in rapidly changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence and require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position, and (6) that operate in an industry that is subject to extensive domestic and foreign regulation (including companies that supply services to governmental agencies), such as the financial services industry, telecommunications industry, defense and government services industry, healthcare industry, oil and gas industry, waste management industry and food industry. 92 Tabl e of Contents In addition, as we depend on the efforts, skills, reputations, business contacts, and conduct of individuals affiliated with our portfolio companies (including employees of such portfolio companies), we may be adversely affected, including our reputation, if there is misconduct by senior management or other employees of portfolio companies in which we invest, including through successor liability, and we may be unable to control or mitigate such misconduct.

In some cases, the inability of our portfolio companies to refinance or extend maturities may result in the inability of those companies to repay debt at maturity or pay interests when due, and may cause the companies to sell assets, undergo a recapitalization or seek bankruptcy protection, any of which would also likely impair the value of our investment and lead to a decrease in investment income earned by us.

There is no assurance that fundraises for new strategies or successor funds will experience similar success as our existing or predecessor funds in the future. Our current private equity funds and certain other funds and investment vehicles have a finite life and a finite amount of commitments from fund investors.

We may lose investment opportunities in the future if we do not match investment prices, structures and terms offered by competitors. Our competitors that are corporate buyers may be able to achieve synergistic cost savings in respect of an investment, which may provide them with a competitive advantage in bidding for an investment.

The evolving preferences of our fund investors, including sovereign wealth funds and public pension funds, may necessitate that alternatives to the traditional investment fund structure become a larger part of our business going forward, such as separately managed accounts, specialized funds and co-investment vehicles, and strategic investor partnerships whereby we manage certain investors' capital across a variety of our products on separately negotiated terms, which could increase our cost of raising capital at the scale we have historically achieved.

Higher interest rates may result in increased surrenders on interest-sensitive products, such as annuity contracts and certain life insurance policies, which may adversely affect Global Atlantic's earnings related to those products. This risk is present across most of Global Atlantic's insurance products, which can typically be surrendered for the cash value, less any applicable surrender charge, at any time.

An inability of such vehicles to continue to raise or utilize leverage, to refinance or extend the maturities of their outstanding indebtedness or to maintain adequate levels of collateral under the terms of their CLOs could limit their ability to grow their business, reinvest principal cash, distribute cash to us or fully execute their business strategy, and our results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

There is a risk that such vehicles will lack adequate liquidity to satisfy any unexpected redemption requests, which may occur for a variety of reasons, including, in addition to the ones identified above, compliance obligations of their investors and increases in their investors' liquidity needs, which tend to be more pronounced during periods of market volatility and which may escalate in any period and be particularly pronounced for investment vehicles whose governing agreements permit fund investors, up to certain limits or caps, to submit redemption requests periodically, including potentially as frequently as monthly.

Biggest changeExpenses Policy benefits and claims Policy benefits and claims were primarily driven by (i) initial reserves related to new reinsurance transactions with life contingencies during the year ended December 31, 2021, (ii) an increase in the value of embedded derivatives in Global Atlantic's indexed universal life and fixed indexed annuity products, as a result of higher equity market returns (as discussed above under "Revenues—Net gains on derivative instruments," Global Atlantic purchases equity index options in order to hedge this risk, the fair value changes of which are accounted for in gains on derivative instruments, and generally offsetting the change in embedded derivative fair value reported in policy benefits and claims), and (iii) an increase in net flows in the institutional and individual channels, all offset by a decrease in variable annuity reserves primarily due to higher equity market returns and market interest rates. 156 Table of Co n tents Amortization of policy acquisition costs Amortization of policy acquisition costs during the year ended December 31, 2021 was primarily driven by the amortization of insurance intangibles recognized as part of purchase accounting of the Global Atlantic acquisition.

Biggest changeOffsetting these increases in net other investment gains were (i) an increase in unrealized losses on investments accounted under a fair-value option, (ii) an increase in unrealized losses on real estate investments at fair-value under investment company accounting due to higher interest and capitalization rates during the year ended December 31, 2023 and (iii) a decrease in realized gains on investments not supporting asset-liability matching strategies. 145 Table of Contents Expenses Net policy benefits and claims Net policy benefits and claims increased for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 primarily due to (i) an increase in the value of embedded derivatives in Global Atlantic's indexed universal life and fixed indexed annuity products, as a result of higher equity market returns (as discussed above under "—Consolidated Results of Operations (GAAP Basis)—Revenues—Net investment-related gains (losses)," Global Atlantic purchases equity index options in order to hedge this risk, the fair value changes of which are accounted for in gains on derivative instruments, and generally offsetting the change in embedded derivative fair value reported in net policy benefits and claims), (ii) an increase in losses on market risk benefits due to market interest rates generally ending the year relatively flat after being volatile during the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to a significant increase in market interest rates during the year ended December 31, 2022, (iii) an increase in net flows from both individual and institutional market channel sales, (iv) higher average funding costs due to higher crediting rates and the ordinary-course run-off of older business originated in a lower interest rate environment, (v) higher initial reserves assumed related to new reinsurance transactions with life contingencies in the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, and (vi) an increase in unfavorable assumption review impacts as discussed above.

Uncalled Commitments Uncalled commitments is the aggregate amount of unfunded capital commitments that KKR’s investment funds and carry-paying co-investment vehicles have received from partners to contribute capital to fund future investments. The amount of uncalled commitments is not reduced by capital invested using borrowings under an investment fund’s subscription facility until capital is called from our fund investors.

Partially offsetting these increases was the deconsolidation of KREF in the fourth quarter of 2021.

For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest expense, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures." Expenses - Asset Management Compensation and Benefits Expenses The decrease in compensation and benefits expense during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 was primarily due to the reversal of previously recognized accrued carried interest, partially offset by (i) higher equity-based compensation charges and (ii) a higher level of discretionary cash compensation resulting from a higher level of segment fee related revenue and realized performance income in the current period.

General, Administrative and Other The increase in general, administrative and other expenses during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 was primarily due to a higher level of (i) expenses at our consolidated funds and investment vehicles, (ii) strategic corporate transaction-related charges, (iii) professional fees, information technology and other administrative costs in connection with the growth of the firm, and (iv) travel related expenses as a result of a return of travel activity to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels.

General, Administrative and Other The increase in general, administrative and other during the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 was primarily due to a higher level of (i) expenses at our consolidated funds and investment vehicles, (ii) strategic corporate transaction-related charges, (iii) professional fees, information technology and other administrative costs in connection with the growth of the firm, and (iv) travel related expenses as a result of a return of travel activity to pre- COVID-19 pandemic levels.

Accordingly, net income (loss) attributable to KKR would be unchanged if such investment funds and other vehicles were not consolidated.

Since the fair value of the underlying investments varies between reporting periods, it is necessary to make adjustments to the amounts recorded as carried interest to reflect either (a) positive performance resulting in an increase in the carried interest allocated to the general partner or (b) negative performance that would cause the amount due to KKR to be less than the amount previously recognized, resulting in a negative adjustment to carried interest allocated to the general partner.

In each case, it is necessary to calculate the carried interest on cumulative results compared to the carried interest recorded to date and to make the required positive or negative adjustments.

Investment gains and losses relating to our general partner capital interest in our unconsolidated funds are not reflected in our discussion and analysis of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities. Our economics associated with these gains and losses are reflected in Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) as described above.

Significant dividends from portfolio companies and consolidated funds are generally not recurring quarterly dividends, and while they may occur in the future, their size and frequency are variable.

Global Atlantic reviews the adequacy of its reserves, deferred revenue and expenses and the assumptions underlying those items at least annually, usually in the third quarter. As Global Atlantic analyzes its assumptions, to the extent Global Atlantic chooses to update one or more of those assumptions, there may be an “unlocking” impact.

Generally, favorable unlocking means the change in assumptions required a reduction in reserves, or in deferred revenue liabilities or an increase in deferred expenses, and unfavorable unlocking means the change in assumptions required an increase in reserves or in deferred revenue liabilities, or a reduction in deferred expenses.

The decrease in capital markets transaction fees was primarily due to a decrease in the number of capital markets transactions for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to the year ended December 31, 2021.

The decrease in transaction fees was primarily due to a decrease in the number of capital markets transactions for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to the year ended December 31, 2021.

The increase was primarily attributable to (i) new capital raised from Global Atlantic and various alternative and leveraged credit investment vehicles and (ii) the change in fee base for Global Atlantic's management fees from fair market value to book value.

The decrease was primarily attributable to capital called from fund investors to make investments during the period, which was partially offset by new capital commitments from fund investors.

While each of the capital markets transactions that we undertake in this business line is separately negotiated, our fee rates are generally higher with respect to underwriting or syndicating equity offerings than with respect to debt offerings, and the amount of fees that we earn for similar transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes.

This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period. The average annual management fee rate associated with this capital is approximately 1.0%.

The date on which we begin to earn fees (as specified above) is not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for an extended period of time . If and when such management fees are earned, a portion of existing FPAUM may cease paying fees or pay lower fees, thus offsetting a portion of any new management fees earned.

If and when such management fees are earned, a portion of existing FPAUM may cease paying fees or pay lower fees, thus offsetting a portion of any new management fees earned.

The number of large private equity investments made in any quarterly or year-to-date period is volatile and, consequently, a significant amount of capital invested in one period or a few periods may not be indicative of a similar level of capital deployment in future periods.

Because capital contributions are due on demand, the above commitments have been presented as falling due within one year. However, given the size of such commitments and the pace at which our investment funds make investments, we expect that the capital commitments presented above will be called over a period of several years.

Net cost of insurance Net cost of insurance increased for the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 primarily due to (i) one less month of activity reported in the prior financial reporting period as a result of the GA Acquisition having occurred on February 1, 2021, (ii) growth in reserves in the institutional market as a result of new reinsurance transactions and in the individual market as a result of new business volumes, and (iii) higher funding costs on new business originated, and (iv) the impact of assumption review (as described in “—Consolidated Results of Operations (GAAP Basis)—Insurance (Unaudited)—Assumption Review” above).
