NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

Ameriprise Financial, Inc. is a holding company, which primarily conducts business through its subsidiaries to provide financial planning, products and services that are designed to be utilized as solutions for clients’ cash and liquidity, asset accumulation, income, protection and estate and wealth transfer needs. The foreign operations of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. are conducted primarily through its subsidiary, Threadneedle Asset Management Holdings Sàrl (“Threadneedle”).

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Ameriprise Financial, Inc., companies in which it directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which it is the primary beneficiary (collectively, the “Company”). The income or loss generated by consolidated entities which will not be realized by the Company’s shareholders is attributed to noncontrolling interests in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Noncontrolling interests are the ownership interests in subsidiaries not attributable, directly or indirectly, to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. and are classified as equity within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company excluding noncontrolling interests is defined as “Ameriprise Financial.” All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. See Note 3 for additional information related to VIEs.

During the first quarter of 2011, management decided to identify an appropriate buyer for Securities America Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Securities America”). Management believes a sale would allow Securities America to focus on growth opportunities in the independent channel and would allow the Company to devote resources to the Ameriprise branded advisor business. During the second quarter of 2011, the results of Securities America have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented and the related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale. See Note 17 for additional information on discontinued operations.

The interim financial information in this report has not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated results of operations and financial position for the interim periods have been made. Except for the adjustment described below, all adjustments made were of a normal recurring nature.

In the second quarter of 2010, the Company made an adjustment for revisions to certain calculations in its valuation of deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and deferred sales inducement costs (“DSIC”) which resulted in a $33 million pretax benefit ($21 million after-tax).

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current presentation. Results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. These Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 28, 2011.

The Company evaluated events or transactions that may have occurred after the balance sheet date for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Fair Value

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated the accounting standards related to disclosures on fair value measurements. The standard expands the current disclosure requirements to include additional detail about significant transfers between Levels 1 and 2 within the fair value hierarchy and presents activity in the rollforward of Level 3 activity on a gross basis. The standard also clarifies existing disclosure requirements related to the level of disaggregation to be used for assets and liabilities as well as disclosures on the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure requirements related to the Level 3 rollforward, which are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted the standard in the first quarter of 2010, except for the additional disclosures related to the Level 3 rollforward, which the Company adopted in the first quarter of 2011. The adoption did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition. See Note 3 and Note 11 for the required disclosures.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

In June 2009, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to the consolidation of VIEs. The standard amends the guidance on the determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE from a quantitative model to a qualitative model and requires

Table of Contents

AMERIPRISE FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

additional disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement in VIEs. Under the new qualitative model, the primary beneficiary must have both the power to direct the activities of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive gains that could be potentially significant to the VIE. In February 2010, the FASB amended this guidance to defer application of the consolidation requirements for certain investment funds. The standards are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company adopted the standards effective January 1, 2010 and as a result consolidated certain collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”). At adoption, the Company recorded a $5.5 billion increase to assets and a $5.1 billion increase to liabilities. The difference between the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the CDOs was recorded as a cumulative effect increase of $473 million to appropriated retained earnings of consolidated investment entities. Such amounts are recorded as appropriated retained earnings as the CDO note holders, not Ameriprise Financial, ultimately will receive the benefits or absorb the losses associated with the assets and liabilities of the CDOs. Subsequent to the adoption, the net change in fair value of the assets and liabilities of the CDOs will be recorded as net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and as an adjustment to appropriated retained earnings of consolidated investment entities. See Note 3 for additional information related to the application of the amended VIE consolidation model and the required disclosures.

Future Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to the presentation of comprehensive income. The standard requires entities to present all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. For both options, an entity is required to present reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The amendments do not affect how earnings per share is calculated or presented. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The standard is to be applied retrospectively. The adoption of the standard will not impact the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Fair Value

In May 2011, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. The standard requires entities, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position which are Level 3 fair value measurements, to disclose quantitative information about unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurements, a description of the valuation processes in place, and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements to changes in unobservable inputs and interrelationships between those inputs if a change in those inputs would result in a significantly different fair value measurement. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy for each class of assets and liabilities not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but for which the fair value is disclosed. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Transfers and Servicing: Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements

In April 2011, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to accounting for repurchase agreements and other similar agreements. The standard modifies the criteria for determining when these transactions would be accounted for as secured borrowings as opposed to sales. The standard is effective prospectively for new transfers and existing transactions that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 31, 2011. The adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Receivables

In April 2011, the FASB updated the accounting standards for troubled debt restructurings. The new standard includes indicators that a lender should consider in determining whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and provides clarification for determining whether the lender has granted a concession to the borrower. The standard sets the effective dates for troubled debt restructuring disclosures required by recent guidance on credit quality disclosures. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and is to be applied retrospectively to modifications occurring on or after the beginning of the annual period of adoption. For purposes of measuring impairments of receivables that are considered impaired as a result of applying the new guidance, the standard should be applied prospectively for the interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011. The adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts

In October 2010, the FASB updated the accounting standards for DAC. Under this new standard, only the following costs incurred in the acquisition of new and renewal insurance contracts would be capitalizable as DAC: (i) incremental direct costs of a successful contract acquisition, (ii) portions of employees’ salaries and benefits directly related to time spent performing specified acquisition activities (that is, underwriting, policy issuance and processing, medical and inspection, and sales force contract selling) for a contract that has actually been acquired, (iii) other costs related to the specified acquisition activities that would not have been incurred had the acquisition contract not occurred, and (iv) advertising costs that meet the capitalization criteria in other U.S. GAAP guidance for certain direct-response marketing. All other costs are to be expensed as incurred. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted if it is at the beginning of an entity’s annual reporting period. The standard is to be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application to all prior periods presented is permitted but not required. The Company will adopt the standard on January 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

3. Consolidated Investment Entities

The Company provides asset management services to various CDOs and other investment products (collectively, “investment entities”), which are sponsored by the Company for the investment of client assets in the normal course of business. Certain of these investment entities are considered to be VIEs while others are considered to be voting rights entities (“VREs”). The Company consolidates certain of these investment entities.

The CDOs managed by the Company are considered VIEs. These CDOs are asset backed financing entities collateralized by a pool of assets, primarily syndicated loans and, to a lesser extent, high-yield bonds. Multiple tranches of debt securities are issued by a CDO, offering investors various maturity and credit risk characteristics. The debt securities issued by the CDOs are non-recourse to the Company. The CDO’s debt holders have recourse only to the assets of the CDO. The assets of the CDOs cannot be used by the Company. Scheduled debt payments are based on the performance of the CDO’s collateral pool. The Company generally earns management fees from the CDOs based on the par value of outstanding debt and, in certain instances, may also receive performance-based fees. In the normal course of business, the Company has invested in certain CDOs, generally an insignificant portion of the unrated, junior subordinated debt.

For certain of the CDOs, the Company has determined that consolidation is required as it has power over the CDOs and holds a variable interest in the CDOs for which the Company has the potential to receive significant benefits or the potential obligation to absorb significant losses. For other CDOs managed by the Company, the Company has determined that consolidation is not required as the Company does not hold a variable interest in the CDOs.

The Company provides investment advice and related services to private, pooled investment vehicles organized as limited partnerships, limited liability companies or foreign (non-U.S.) entities. Certain of these pooled investment vehicles are considered VIEs while others are VREs. For investment management services, the Company generally earns management fees based on the market value of assets under management, and in certain instances may also receive performance-based fees. The Company provides seed money occasionally to certain of these funds. For certain of the pooled investment vehicles, the Company has determined that consolidation is required as the Company stands to absorb a majority of the entity’s expected losses or receive a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns. For other VIE pooled investment vehicles, the Company has determined that consolidation is not required because the Company is not expected to absorb the majority of the expected losses or receive the majority of the expected residual returns. For the pooled investment vehicles which are VREs, the Company consolidates the structure when it has a controlling financial interest.

The Company also provides investment advisory, distribution and other services to the Columbia and Threadneedle mutual fund families. The Company has determined that consolidation is not required for these mutual funds.

In addition, the Company may invest in structured investments including VIEs for which it is not the sponsor. These structured investments typically invest in fixed income instruments and are managed by third parties and include asset backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities, and residential mortgage backed securities. The Company includes these investments in Available-for-Sale securities. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of these structures due to its relative size, position in the capital structure of these entities, and the Company’s lack of power over the structures. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investment in structured investments that it does not consolidate is limited to its carrying value. The Company has no obligation to provide further financial or other support to these structured investments nor has the Company provided any support to these structured investments. See Note 4 for additional information about these structured investments.

The Company has elected the fair value option for the financial assets and liabilities of the consolidated CDOs. Management believes that the use of the fair value option better matches the changes in fair value of assets and liabilities related to the CDOs.

AMERIPRISE FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

For receivables, certain other assets and other liabilities of the consolidated CDOs, the carrying value approximates fair value as the nature of these assets and liabilities has historically been short term and the receivables have been collectible. The fair value of these assets and liabilities is classified as Level 2. Other liabilities consist primarily of securities purchased but not yet settled held by consolidated CDOs. The fair value of syndicated loans obtained from nationally-recognized pricing services is classified as Level 2. The fair value of syndicated loans obtained from a single broker quote is classified as Level 3. Other assets consist primarily of properties held in consolidated pooled investment vehicles managed by Threadneedle. The fair value of these properties is determined using discounted cash flows and market comparables. Inputs into the valuation of these properties include: rental cash flows, current occupancy, historical vacancy rates, tenant history and assumptions regarding how quickly the property can be occupied and at what rental rates. Given the significance of the unobservable inputs to these measurements, these assets are classified as Level 3. The fair value of the CDO’s debt is valued using a discounted cash flow methodology. Inputs used to determine the expected cash flows include assumptions about default and recovery rates of the CDO’s underlying assets. Given the significance of the unobservable inputs to this fair value measurement, the CDO debt is classified as Level 3. See Note 11 for a description of the Company’s determination of the fair value of investments.

The following table presents the fair value and unpaid principal balance of assets and liabilities carried at fair value under the fair value option:

	June 30, 2011			December 31, 2010
	(in millions)
Syndicated loans
Unpaid principal balance	$	4,980		$	5,107
Excess estimated unpaid principal over fair value	(129		)	(240		)
Fair value	$	4,851		$	4,867

Fair value of loans more than 90 days past due	$	37		$	71
Fair value of loans in non-accrual status	37			71
Difference between fair value and unpaid principal of loans more than 90 days past due, loans in non-accrual status or both	26			62
Debt
Unpaid principal balance	$	5,740		$	5,893
Excess estimated unpaid principal over fair value	(506		)	(722		)
Fair value	$	5,234		$	5,171

Interest income from syndicated loans, bonds and structured investments is recorded based on contractual rates in net investment income. Gains and losses related to changes in the fair value of investments and gains and losses on sales of investments are recorded in net investment income. Interest expense on debt is recorded in interest and debt expense with gains and losses related to changes in the fair value of debt recorded in net investment income.

Total net gains and (losses) recognized in net investment income related to changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities for which the fair value option was elected were $(33) million and $100 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total net gains and (losses) recognized in net investment income related to changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities for which the fair value option was elected were $(66) million and $128 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The majority of the syndicated loans and debt have floating rates; as such, changes in their fair values are primarily attributable to changes in credit spreads.

Debt of the consolidated investment entities and the stated interest rates were as follows:

	Carrying Value				Weighted Average Interest Rate
	June 30, 2011		December 31, 2010		June 30, 2011		December 31, 2010
	(in millions)
Debt of consolidated CDOs due 2012-2021	$	5,234	$	5,171	0.9	%	1.0	%
Floating rate revolving credit borrowings due 2014	419		329		5.4		5.6
Floating rate revolving credit borrowings due 2015	49		35		4.5		5.2
Total	$	5,702	$	5,535

The debt of the consolidated CDOs has both fixed and floating interest rates, which range from 0% to 13.3%. The interest rates on the debt of consolidated investment entities are weighted average rates based on the outstanding principal and contractual

interest rates. The carrying value of the debt of the consolidated CDOs represents the fair value of the aggregate debt as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The carrying value of the floating rate revolving credit borrowings represents the outstanding principal amount of debt of certain consolidated pooled investment vehicles managed by Threadneedle. The fair value of this debt was $468 million and $364 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

5. Financing Receivables

The Company’s financing receivables include commercial mortgage loans, syndicated loans, consumer bank loans, policy loans and margin loans. The Company does not hold any loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality. Commercial mortgage loans, syndicated loans and policy loans are reflected in investments. Consumer bank loans and margin loans are reflected in receivables. Policy loans do not exceed the cash surrender value of the policy at origination. As there is minimal risk of loss related to policy loans, the Company does not record an allowance for loan losses for policy loans. The Company monitors collateral supporting margin loans and requests additional collateral when necessary in order to mitigate the risk of loss. As there is minimal risk of loss related to margin loans, the allowance for loan losses is immaterial.

As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company’s recorded investment in financing receivables individually evaluated for impairment for which there was no related allowance for loan losses was $16 million and $19 million, respectively. Unearned income, unamortized premiums and discounts, and net unamortized deferred fees and costs are not material to the Company’s total loan balance. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company purchased $108 million and $221 million, respectively, and sold $46 million and $140 million, respectively, of consumer bank loans. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company purchased $92 million and $149 million, respectively, and sold $82 million and $185 million, respectively, of consumer bank loans. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company purchased $40 million and $103 million, respectively, and sold $1 million and $2 million, respectively, of syndicated loans. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company purchased $6 million and sold $18 million and $22 million, respectively, of syndicated loans.

Credit Quality Information

Nonperforming loans, which are generally loans 90 days or more past due, were $8 million and $15 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. All other loans were considered to be performing.

Commercial Mortgage Loans

The Company reviews the credit worthiness of the borrower and the performance of the underlying properties in order to determine the risk of loss on commercial mortgage loans. Based on this review, the commercial mortgage loans are assigned an internal risk rating, which management updates as necessary. Commercial mortgage loans which management has assigned its highest risk rating were 3% of commercial mortgage loans as of both June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Loans with the highest risk rating represent distressed loans which the Company has identified as impaired or expects to become delinquent or enter into foreclosure in the next six months. In addition, the Company reviews the concentrations of credit risk by region and property type.

Concentrations of credit risk of commercial mortgage loans by U.S. region were as follows:

	Loans				Percentage
	June 30, 2011		December 31, 2010		June 30, 2011		December 31, 2010

Syndicated Loans

The Company’s syndicated loan portfolio is diversified across industries and issuers. The primary credit indicator for syndicated loans is whether the loans are performing in accordance with the contractual terms of the syndication. Total nonperforming syndicated loans at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were $2 million and $3 million, respectively.

Consumer Bank Loans

The Company considers the credit worthiness of borrowers (FICO score), collateral characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) and geographic concentration in determining the allowance for loan losses for residential mortgage loans, credit cards and other consumer bank loans. At a minimum, management updates FICO scores and LTV ratios semiannually.

As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, approximately 5% and 7%, respectively, of residential mortgage loans and credit cards and other consumer bank loans had FICO scores below 640. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, approximately 2% and 3%, respectively, of the Company’s residential mortgage loans had LTV ratios greater than 90%. The Company’s most significant geographic concentration for the consumer bank loans is in California representing 37% and 33% of the portfolio as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. No other state represents more than 10% of the total consumer bank loan portfolio.

8. Variable Annuity and Insurance Guarantees

The majority of the variable annuity contracts offered by the Company contain guaranteed minimum death benefit (“GMDB”) provisions. The Company also offers variable annuities with death benefit provisions that gross up the amount payable by a certain percentage of contract earnings, which are referred to as gain gross-up (“GGU”) benefits. In addition, the Company offers contracts with GMWB and GMAB provisions. The Company previously offered contracts containing guaranteed minimum income benefit (“GMIB”) provisions.

Certain UL contracts offered by the Company provide secondary guarantee benefits. The secondary guarantee ensures that, subject to specified conditions, the policy will not terminate and will continue to provide a death benefit even if there is insufficient policy value to cover the monthly deductions and charges.

The following table provides information related to variable annuity guarantees for which the Company has established additional liabilities:

(1) Amounts include adjustments for fair value hedges on the Company’s long-term debt and any unamortized discounts. See Note 12 for information on the Company’s fair value hedges.

Long-term debt

During the first quarter of 2011, the Company extinguished $6 million of its municipal bond inverse floater certificates funded through the call of a $10 million portfolio of municipal bonds.

Short-term borrowings

The Company enters into repurchase agreements in exchange for cash, which it accounts for as secured borrowings. The Company has pledged Available-for-Sale securities consisting of agency residential mortgage backed securities and commercial mortgage backed securities to collateralize its obligation under the repurchase agreements. The fair value of the securities pledged is recorded in investments and was $520 million and $412 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The stated interest rate of the short-term borrowings is a weighted average annualized interest rate on repurchase agreements held as of the balance sheet date.

11. Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; that is, an exit price. The exit price assumes the asset or liability is not exchanged subject to a forced liquidation or distressed sale.

Valuation Hierarchy

The Company categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used by the Company’s valuation techniques. A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1	Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2	Prices or valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 3	Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Determination of Fair Value

The Company uses valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The Company’s market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The Company’s income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future projected cash flows to a single discounted present value amount. When applying either approach, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs.

The following is a description of the valuation techniques used to measure fair value and the general classification of these instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy.

Assets

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Actively traded money market funds are measured at their net asset value (“NAV”) and classified as Level 1. The Company’s remaining cash equivalents are classified as Level 2 and measured at amortized cost, which is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short time between the purchase of the instrument and its expected realization.

Investments (Trading Securities and Available-for-Sale Securities)

When available, the fair value of securities is based on quoted prices in active markets. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are obtained from nationally-recognized pricing services, broker quotes, or other model-based valuation techniques. Level 1 securities primarily include U.S. Treasuries and seed money in funds traded in active markets. Level 2 securities primarily include agency mortgage backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities, asset backed securities, municipal and corporate bonds, U.S. and foreign government and agency securities, and seed money and other investments in certain hedge funds. The fair value of these Level 2 securities is based on a market approach with prices obtained from nationally-recognized pricing services. Observable inputs used to value these securities can include: reported trades, benchmark yields, issuer spreads and broker/dealer quotes. Level 3 securities primarily include non-agency residential mortgage backed securities, asset backed securities and corporate bonds. The fair value of these Level 3 securities is typically based on a single broker quote, except for the valuation of non-agency residential mortgage backed securities. The Company uses prices from nationally-recognized pricing services to determine the fair value of non-agency residential mortgage backed securities; however, the Company classifies these securities as Level 3 because it believes the market for these securities is inactive and their valuation includes significant unobservable inputs.

Separate Account Assets

The fair value of assets held by separate accounts is determined by the NAV of the funds in which those separate accounts are invested. The NAV represents the exit price for the separate account. Separate account assets are classified as Level 2 as they are traded in principal-to-principal markets with little publicly released pricing information.

Other Assets

Derivatives that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, such as foreign exchange forwards, or derivatives that are exchange-traded are classified as Level 1 measurements. The fair value of derivatives that are traded in less active over-the-counter markets are generally measured using pricing models with market observable inputs such as interest rates and equity index levels. These measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and include swaps and the majority of options.

Assets Held for Sale

Assets held for sale consist of cash equivalents of Securities America.

Liabilities

Future Policy Benefits and Claims

The Company values the embedded derivative liability attributable to the provisions of certain variable annuity riders using internal valuation models. These models calculate fair value by discounting expected cash flows from benefits plus margins for profit, risk and expenses less embedded derivative fees. The projected cash flows used by these models include observable capital market assumptions (such as, market implied equity volatility and the LIBOR swap curve) and incorporate significant unobservable inputs related to contractholder behavior assumptions (such as withdrawals and lapse rates) and margins for risk, profit and expenses that the Company believes an exit market participant would expect. The fair value of these embedded derivatives also reflects a current estimate of the Company’s nonperformance risk specific to these liabilities. Given the significant unobservable inputs to this valuation, these measurements are classified as Level 3. The embedded derivative liability attributable to these provisions is recorded in future policy benefits and claims. The Company uses various Black-Scholes calculations to determine the fair value of the embedded derivative liability associated with the provisions of its equity indexed annuities. The inputs to these calculations are primarily market observable and include interest rates, volatilities, and equity index levels. As a result, these measurements are classified as Level 2.

Customer Deposits

The Company uses various Black-Scholes calculations to determine the fair value of the embedded derivative liability associated with the provisions of its stock market certificates. The inputs to these calculations are primarily market observable and include interest rates, volatilities and equity index levels. As a result, these measurements are classified as Level 2.

Other Liabilities

Securities sold but not yet purchased include highly liquid investments which are short-term in nature. Level 1 securities include U.S. Treasuries and securities traded in active markets. The remaining securities sold but not yet purchased are measured using amortized cost, which is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short time between the purchase of the instrument and its expected realization and are classified as Level 2.

The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of the quarter in which each transfer occurred.

During the reporting periods, there were no material assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

The following table provides the carrying value and the estimated fair value of financial instruments that are not reported at fair value. All other financial instruments that are reported at fair value have been included above in the table with balances of assets and liabilities Ameriprise Financial measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Investments

The fair value of commercial mortgage loans, except those with significant credit deterioration, is determined by discounting contractual cash flows using discount rates that reflect current pricing for loans with similar remaining maturities and characteristics including loan-to-value ratio, occupancy rate, refinance risk, debt-service coverage, location, and property condition. For commercial mortgage loans with significant credit deterioration, fair value is determined using the same adjustments as above with an additional adjustment for the Company’s estimate of the amount recoverable on the loan.

The fair value of policy loans is determined using discounted cash flows.

Receivables

The fair value of consumer bank loans is determined by discounting estimated cash flows and incorporating adjustments for prepayment, administration expenses, severity and credit loss estimates, with discount rates based on the Company’s estimate of current market conditions.

Loans held for sale are measured at the lower of cost or market and fair value is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for loans with similar characteristics.

Brokerage margin loans are measured at outstanding balances, which are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the sufficiency of the collateral and short term nature of these loans.

Restricted and Segregated Cash

Restricted and segregated cash is generally set aside for specific business transactions and restrictions are specific to the Company and do not transfer to third party market participants; therefore, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Amounts segregated under federal and other regulations may also reflect resale agreements and are measured at the cost at which the securities will be sold. This measurement is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short time between entering into the transaction and its expected realization and the reduced risk of credit loss due to pledging U.S. government-backed securities as collateral.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

Assets Held for Sale

Assets held for sale reflect notes receivable of Securities America. See Note 1 and Note 17 for additional information on the Company’s presentation of discontinued operations.

Other Investments and Assets

Other investments and assets primarily consist of syndicated loans. The fair value of syndicated loans is obtained from a nationally-recognized pricing service.

Future Policy Benefits and Claims

The fair value of fixed annuities, in deferral status, is determined by discounting cash flows using a risk neutral discount rate with adjustments for profit margin, expense margin, early policy surrender behavior, a provision for adverse deviation from estimated early policy surrender behavior, and the Company’s nonperformance risk specific to these liabilities. The fair value of other liabilities including non-life contingent fixed annuities in payout status, equity indexed annuity host contracts and the fixed portion of a small number of variable annuity contracts classified as investment contracts is determined in a similar manner.

Customer Deposits

The fair value of investment certificate reserves is determined by discounting cash flows using discount rates that reflect current pricing for assets with similar terms and characteristics, with adjustments for early withdrawal behavior, penalty fees, expense margin and the Company’s nonperformance risk specific to these liabilities.

Banking and brokerage customer deposits are liabilities with no defined maturities and fair value is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date.

Separate Account Liabilities

Certain separate account liabilities are classified as investment contracts and are carried at an amount equal to the related separate account assets. Carrying value is a reasonable estimate of the fair value as it represents the exit value as evidenced by withdrawal transactions between contractholders and the Company. A nonperformance adjustment is not included as the related separate account assets act as collateral for these liabilities and minimize nonperformance risk.

Debt and Other Liabilities

The fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted prices in active markets, when available. If quoted prices are not available fair values are obtained from nationally-recognized pricing services, broker quotes, or other model-based valuation techniques such as present value of cash flows.

The fair value of short-term borrowings is obtained from a nationally-recognized pricing service. A nonperformance adjustment is not included as collateral requirements for these borrowings minimize the nonperformance risk.

The fair value of future funding commitments to affordable housing partnerships is determined by discounting cash flows.

12. Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Derivative instruments enable the Company to manage its exposure to various market risks. The value of such instruments is derived from an underlying variable or multiple variables, including equity, foreign exchange and interest rate indices or prices. The Company primarily enters into derivative agreements for risk management purposes related to the Company’s products and operations.

The Company uses derivatives as economic hedges and accounting hedges. The following table presents the balance sheet location and the gross fair value of derivative instruments, including embedded derivatives:

(1) The fair values of GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives fluctuate based on changes in equity, interest rate and credit markets.

The Company holds derivative instruments that either do not qualify or are not designated for hedge accounting treatment. These derivative instruments are used as economic hedges of equity, interest rate, credit and foreign currency exchange rate risk related to various products and transactions of the Company.

The majority of the Company’s annuity contracts contain GMDB provisions, which may result in a death benefit payable that exceeds the contract accumulation value when market values of customers’ accounts decline. Certain annuity contracts contain GMWB or GMAB provisions, which guarantee the right to make limited partial withdrawals each contract year regardless of the volatility inherent in the underlying investments or guarantee a minimum accumulation value of consideration received at the beginning of the contract period, after a specified holding period, respectively. The Company economically hedges the exposure related to non-life contingent GMWB and GMAB provisions primarily using various futures, options, total return swaps, interest rate swaptions, interest rate swaps, variance swaps and credit default swaps. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the gross notional amount of derivative contracts for the Company’s GMWB and GMAB provisions was $67.9 billion and $55.5 billion, respectively. The Company had previously entered into a limited number of derivative contracts to economically hedge equity exposure related to GMDB provisions on variable annuity contracts written in 2009. As of both June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company did not have any outstanding hedges on its GMDB provisions.

The deferred premium associated with some of the above options is paid or received semi-annually over the life of the option contract. The following is a summary of the payments the Company is scheduled to make and receive for these options:

	Premiums Payable		Premiums Receivable
	(in millions)
2011(1)	$	151	$	21
2012	285		40
2013	262		25
2014	236		22

2016-2026	813		38

(1) 2011 amounts represent the amounts payable and receivable for the period from July 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Actual timing and payment amounts may differ due to future contract settlements, modifications or exercises of options prior to the full premium being paid or received.

Equity indexed annuities and stock market certificate products have returns tied to the performance of equity markets. As a result of fluctuations in equity markets, the obligation incurred by the Company related to equity indexed annuities and stock market certificate products will positively or negatively impact earnings over the life of these products. As a means of economically hedging its obligations under the provisions of these products, the Company enters into index options and futures contracts. The gross notional amount of these derivative contracts was $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The Company enters into forward contracts, futures and total return swaps to manage its exposure to price risk arising from seed money investments in proprietary investment products. The gross notional amount of these contracts was $152 million and $174 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge its exposure to certain receivables and obligations denominated in non-functional currencies. The gross notional amount of these contracts was $24 million and $21 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

In the first quarter of 2010, the Company entered into a total return swap to economically hedge its exposure to equity price risk of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. common stock granted as part of its Ameriprise Financial Franchise Advisor Deferred Equity Plan. In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company extended the contract through 2011. As part of the contract, the Company expects to cash settle the difference between the value of a fixed number of shares at the contract date (which may be increased from time to time) and the value of those shares over an unwind period ending on December 31, 2011. The gross notional value of this contract was $35 million at both June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Embedded Derivatives

Certain annuities contain GMAB and non-life contingent GMWB provisions, which are considered embedded derivatives. In addition, the equity component of the equity indexed annuity and stock market certificate product obligations are also considered embedded derivatives. These embedded derivatives are bifurcated from their host contracts and reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. As discussed above, the Company uses derivatives to mitigate the financial statement impact of these embedded derivatives.

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company has designated and accounts for the following as cash flow hedges: (i) interest rate swaps to hedge interest rate exposure on debt, (ii) interest rate lock agreements to hedge interest rate exposure on debt issuances and (iii) swaptions used to hedge the risk of increasing interest rates on forecasted fixed premium product sales. The Company previously designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges interest rate swaps to hedge certain asset-based distribution fees.

AMERIPRISE FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

During the second quarter of 2011, the Company reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings a $27 million gain on an interest rate hedge put in place in anticipation of issuing debt between December 2010 and June 2011. The gain was reclassified due to the forecasted transaction not occurring according to the original hedge strategy. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, amounts recognized in earnings related to cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness were not material. The estimated net amount of existing pretax losses on June 30, 2011 that the Company expects to reclassify to earnings within the next twelve months is $1 million, which consists of $5 million of pretax gains to be recorded as a reduction to interest and debt expense and $6 million of pretax losses to be recorded in net investment income. The following tables present the impact of the effective portion of the Company’s cash flow hedges on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Consolidated Statements of Equity:

	Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in

Currently, the longest period of time over which the Company is hedging exposure to the variability in future cash flows is 24 years and relates to forecasted debt interest payments.

Fair Value Hedges

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company entered into and designated as fair value hedges three interest rate swaps to convert senior notes due 2015, 2019 and 2020 from fixed rate debt to floating rate debt. The swaps have identical terms as the underlying debt being hedged so no ineffectiveness is expected to be realized. The Company recognizes gains and losses on the derivatives and the related hedged items within interest and debt expense. The following table presents the amounts recognized in income related to fair value hedges:

		Amount of Gain Recognized in Income on Derivatives
Derivatives designated	Location of Gain	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
as hedging instruments	Recorded into Income	2011		2010		2011		2010
		(in millions)				(in millions)
Fixed rate debt	Interest and debt expense	$	10	$	—	$	20	$	6
Total		$	10	$	—	$	20	$	6

Credit Risk

Credit risk associated with the Company’s derivatives is the risk that a derivative counterparty will not perform in accordance with the terms of the applicable derivative contract. To mitigate such risk, the Company has established guidelines and oversight of credit risk through a comprehensive enterprise risk management program that includes members of senior management. Key components of this program are to require preapproval of counterparties and the use of master netting arrangements and collateral arrangements whenever practical. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company held $105 million and $98 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents and recorded a corresponding liability in other liabilities for collateral the Company is obligated to return to counterparties. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had accepted additional collateral consisting of various securities with a fair value of $3 million and $23 million, respectively, which are not reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the

Table of Contents

AMERIPRISE FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

Company’s maximum credit exposure related to derivative assets after considering netting arrangements with counterparties and collateral arrangements was approximately $14 million and $45 million, respectively.

Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments contain provisions that adjust the level of collateral the Company is required to post based on the Company’s debt rating (or based on the financial strength of the Company’s life insurance subsidiaries for contracts in which those subsidiaries are the counterparty). Additionally, certain of the Company’s derivative contracts contain provisions that allow the counterparty to terminate the contract if the Company’s debt does not maintain a specific credit rating (generally an investment grade rating) or the Company’s life insurance subsidiary does not maintain a specific financial strength rating. If these termination provisions were to be triggered, the Company’s counterparty could require immediate settlement of any net liability position. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments in a net liability position containing such credit risk features was $384 million and $412 million, respectively. The aggregate fair value of assets posted as collateral for such instruments as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $361 million and $406 million, respectively. If the credit risk features of derivative contracts that were in a net liability position at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were triggered, the additional fair value of assets needed to settle these derivative liabilities would have been $23 million and $6 million, respectively.

13. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate on income from continuing operations was 28.7% and 14.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate on income from continuing operations was 26.4% and 15.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for any portion of the deferred tax assets that management believes will not be realized. Included in deferred tax assets is a significant deferred tax asset relating to capital losses that have been recognized for financial statement purposes but not yet for tax return purposes. Under current U.S. federal income tax law, capital losses generally must be used against capital gain income within five years of the year in which the capital losses are recognized for tax purposes. Significant judgment is required in determining if a valuation allowance should be established, and the amount of such allowance if required. Factors used in making this determination include estimates relating to the performance of the business including the ability to generate capital gains. Consideration is given to, among other things in making this determination, (i) future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards, (ii) future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, (iii) taxable income in prior carryback years, and (iv) tax planning strategies. Based on analysis of the Company’s tax position, management believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations and implementation of tax planning strategies will generate sufficient taxable income to enable the Company to utilize all of its deferred tax assets. Accordingly, no valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has been established as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Included in the Company’s deferred income tax assets are tax benefits related to capital loss carryforwards of $29 million which will expire beginning December 31, 2015. As a result of the Company’s ability to file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return including the Company’s life insurance subsidiaries starting in 2010, as well as the expected level of taxable income, management believes the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards will be utilized in the current year.

As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had $167 million and $75 million, respectively, of gross unrecognized tax benefits. If recognized, approximately $44 million and $54 million, net of federal tax benefits, of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, would affect the effective tax rate.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the income tax provision. The Company recognized $49 million and $65 million of interest and penalties for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. The Company recognized $10 million and $20 million of interest and penalties for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had a payable of $36 million and a receivable of $29 million, respectively, related to accrued interest and penalties.

It is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next 12 months. Based on the current audit position of the Company, it is estimated that the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by $130 million to $140 million in the next 12 months.

The Company or one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 1997. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) completed its field examination of the Company’s U.S. income tax returns for 2005 through 2007 during the third and fourth quarters of 2010. The IRS had previously completed its field examination of the 1997 through 2004 tax returns in recent years as part of the overall examination of the American Express Company consolidated returns. However, for federal income tax purposes these years continue to remain open as a consequence of certain issues under appeal. In the fourth quarter of 2010, the IRS commenced an examination of the Company’s U.S income tax returns for 2008 and 2009. The Company’s or certain of its subsidiaries’ state income tax returns are currently under examination by various jurisdictions for years ranging from 1999 through 2009.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

On September 25, 2007, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2007-61 in which it announced that it intends to issue regulations with respect to certain computational aspects of the Dividends Received Deduction (“DRD”) related to separate account assets held in connection with variable contracts of life insurance companies. Any regulations that the IRS ultimately proposes for issuance in this area will be subject to public notice and comment, at which time insurance companies and other members of the public will have the opportunity to raise legal and practical questions about the content, scope and application of such regulations. As a result, the ultimate timing and substance of any such regulations are unknown at this time, but they may result in the elimination of some or all of the separate account DRD tax benefit that the Company receives.

14. Guarantees and Contingencies

Guarantees

Owing to conditions then-prevailing in the credit markets and the isolated defaults of unaffiliated structured investment vehicles held in the portfolios of money market funds advised by its Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC subsidiary (the “2a-7 Funds”), the Company closely monitored the net asset value of the 2a-7 Funds during 2008 and through the date of this report and, as circumstances warranted from time to time, injected capital into one or more of the 2a-7 Funds. Management believes that the market conditions which gave rise to those circumstances have significantly diminished. The Company has not provided a formal capital support agreement or net asset value guarantee to any of the 2a-7 Funds.

Contingencies

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in the normal course of business in legal, regulatory and arbitration proceedings, including class actions, concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its activities as a diversified financial services firm. These include proceedings specific to the Company as well as proceedings generally applicable to business practices in the industries in which it operates. The Company can also be subject to litigation arising out of its general business activities, such as its investments, contracts, leases and employment relationships. Uncertain economic conditions, heightened volatility in the financial markets, such as those which have been experienced from the latter part of 2007 through 2009, and significant financial reform legislation may increase the likelihood that clients and other persons or regulators may present or threaten legal claims or that regulators increase the scope or frequency of examinations of the Company or the financial services industry generally.

As with other financial services firms, the level of regulatory activity and inquiry concerning the Company’s businesses remains elevated. From time to time, the Company receives requests for information from, and/or has been subject to examination or claims by, the SEC, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), the Office of Thrift Supervision, state insurance and securities regulators, state attorneys general and various other domestic or foreign governmental and quasi-governmental authorities on behalf of themselves or clients concerning the Company’s business activities and practices, and the practices of the Company’s financial advisors. During recent periods, the Company has received information requests or inquiries regarding certain pending matters, including: sales of, or disclosures pertaining to, mutual funds, annuities, equity and fixed income securities, low priced securities, insurance products, brokerage services, financial advice offerings; trading practices within the Company’s asset management business; supervision of the Company’s financial advisors; supervisory practices in connection with financial advisors’ outside business activities; information security; and abandoned property and escheatment practices. The number of reviews and investigations has increased in recent years with regard to many firms in the financial services industry, including Ameriprise Financial. The Company has cooperated and will continue to cooperate with the applicable regulators regarding their inquiries.

These legal and regulatory proceedings and disputes are subject to uncertainties and, as such, the Company is unable to predict the ultimate resolution or range of loss that may result. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties or other relief, in addition to further claims, examinations or adverse publicity that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Certain legal and regulatory proceedings are described below.

In June 2004, an action captioned John E. Gallus et al. v. American Express Financial Corp. and American Express Financial Advisors Inc., was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona, and was later transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota. The plaintiffs alleged that they were investors in several of the Company’s mutual funds and they purported to bring the action derivatively on behalf of those funds under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the ‘40 Act). The plaintiffs alleged that fees allegedly paid to the defendants by the funds for investment advisory and administrative services were excessive. Plaintiffs seek an order declaring that defendants have violated the ‘40 Act and awarding unspecified damages including excessive fees allegedly paid plus interest and other costs. On July 6, 2007, the district court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment, dismissing all claims with prejudice. Plaintiffs appealed the district court’s decision, and on April 8, 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit reversed the district court’s decision, and

Table of Contents

AMERIPRISE FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

remanded the case for further proceedings. The Company filed with the United States Supreme Court a Petition for Writ of Certiorari to review the judgment of the Court of Appeals in this case in light of the Supreme Court’s anticipated review of a similar excessive fee case captioned Jones v. Harris Associates. On March 30, 2010, the Supreme Court issued its ruling in Jones v. Harris Associates, and on April 5, 2010, the Supreme Court vacated the Eighth Circuit’s decision in this case and remanded it to the Eighth Circuit for further consideration in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Jones v. Harris Associates. Without any further briefing or argument, on June 4, 2010, the Eighth Circuit remanded the case to the district court for further consideration in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Jones v. Harris Associates. The district court ordered briefing and heard oral argument on September 22, 2010 on the impact of the Jones v. Harris Associates decision. On December 8, 2010, the district court re-entered its July 2007 order granting summary judgment in favor of the Company. Plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal with the Eighth Circuit on January 10, 2011. The briefing on the appeal is complete and the parties are awaiting a date for oral argument.

In July 2009, two issuers of private placement interests (Medical Capital Holdings, Inc./Medical Capital Corporation and affiliated corporations and Provident Shale Royalties, LLC and affiliated corporations) sold by the Company’s subsidiary Securities America, Inc. (“SAI”) were the subject of SEC actions (brought against those entities and individuals associated with them), which has resulted in the filing of several putative class action lawsuits naming both SAI and Ameriprise Financial, as well as related regulatory inquiries. Approximately $400 million of Medical Capital and Provident Shale investments made by SAI clients are outstanding and currently in default. Medical Capital and Provident Royalties are both in receivership. A significant volume of FINRA arbitrations were brought against SAI. Several of them were individually settled, and there was one adverse ruling. The putative class actions and arbitrations generally allege violations of state and/or federal securities laws in connection with SAI’s sales of these private placement interests. These actions were commenced in September 2009 and thereafter. The Medical Capital-related class actions were centralized and moved to the Central District of California by order of the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation under the caption “In re: Medical Capital Securities Litigation.” The Provident Shale-related class actions remain pending in Texas federal court. On June 22, 2010, the Liquidating Trustee of the Provident Liquidating Trust filed an adversary action (“Liquidating Trustee Action”) in the Provident bankruptcy proceeding naming SAI on behalf of both the Provident Liquidating Trust and a number of individual Provident investors who are alleged to have assigned their claims. The Liquidating Trustee Action generally alleges the same types of claims as are alleged in the Provident class actions as well as a claim under the Bankruptcy Code. The Liquidating Trustee Action has been moved from bankruptcy court to the Texas federal court with the other Provident class actions. On January 24, 2011 the Medical Capital Class Action was temporarily transferred to the federal court for the Northern District of Texas (the Court), where the Provident class action is pending, so that coordinated settlement negotiations can be conducted under that single Court’s supervision. On February 17, 2011, the named plaintiffs to the class actions filed with the Court a Settlement Agreement and Motion for Preliminary Approval of Class Action Settlement, seeking the Court’s approval of agreed-upon settlement terms. That settlement was recorded as a subsequent event to the 2010 fourth quarter and reflected in the Company’s audited 2010 financial statements. On March 18, 2011, the Court declined to grant preliminary approval of that settlement. On April 15, 2011, SAI and its holding company, Securities America Financial Corporation entered into new settlement agreements which, in exchange for release of pending arbitration and litigation claims (including certain class action claims pending against the Company and the claims brought by the Liquidating Trustee), provide for the payment of a total of $150 million, $40 million of which was previously reported and charged to the Company’s fourth quarter 2010 results as described above. The combined settlements, together with other provisions for claims relating to Medical Capital or Provident Royalties resulted in a $118 million pre-tax expense in the Company’s first quarter 2011 results. The new settlements are subject to certain conditions, including participation requirements for claimants to be covered by the settlements, and preliminary and final review and Court approval of the class action settlement. The Court issued an order finally approving the class action settlement on August 4, 2011. A related Administrative Complaint brought against SAI by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on January 26, 2010, was also settled on May 24, 2011 with an agreement to pay $2.8 million to Massachusetts investors.

In November 2010, the Company’s J.& W. Seligman & Co. Incorporated subsidiary (“Seligman”) received a governmental inquiry regarding an industry insider trading investigation, as previously stated by the Company in general media reporting. The Company continues to cooperate fully with that inquiry. Neither the Company nor Seligman has been accused of any wrongdoing, and the government has confirmed that neither the Company nor any of its affiliated entities is a target of its investigation into potential insider trading.

17. Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of 2011, management decided to identify an appropriate buyer for Securities America. Management believes a sale would allow Securities America to focus on growth opportunities in the independent channel and would allow the Company to devote resources to the Ameriprise branded advisor business. During the second quarter of 2011, the results of Securities America have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented and the related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale.

The components of income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, are as follows:

18. Common Share Repurchases

In May 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the expenditure of up to $1.5 billion for the repurchase of the Company’s common stock through the date of its 2012 annual shareholders meeting. In June 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an additional expenditure of up to $2.0 billion for the repurchase of the Company’s common stock through June 28, 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company repurchased a total of 12.5 million shares and 5.7 million shares, respectively, of its common stock for an aggregate cost of $761 million and $220 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $2.2 billion remaining under the share repurchase authorizations.

The Company may also reacquire shares of its common stock under its 2005 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2005 ICP”) related to restricted stock awards. Restricted shares that are forfeited before the vesting period has lapsed are recorded as treasury shares. In addition, the holders of restricted shares may elect to surrender a portion of their shares on the vesting date to cover their income tax obligations. These vested restricted shares reacquired by the Company and the Company’s payment of the holders’ income tax obligations are recorded as a treasury share purchase. For both the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the restricted shares forfeited under the 2005 ICP and recorded as treasury shares were 0.1 million. For both the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company reacquired 0.4 million shares of its common stock through the surrender of restricted shares upon vesting and paid in the aggregate $19 million and $16 million, respectively, related to the holders’ income tax obligations on the vesting date.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reissued 1.7 million treasury shares for restricted stock award grants and issuance of shares vested under the Ameriprise Financial Franchise Advisor Deferred Equity Plan.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the “Forward-Looking Statements” that follow and our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes presented in Item 1. Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 28, 2011 (“2010 10-K”), as well as our current reports on Form 8-K and other publicly available information. Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current presentation. References below to “Ameriprise Financial,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. exclusively, to our entire family of companies, or to one or more of our subsidiaries.

Overview

We provide financial planning, products and services that are designed to be utilized as solutions for our clients’ cash and liquidity, asset accumulation, income, protection and estate and wealth transfer needs. Our model for delivering these solutions is centered on building long-term personal relationships between our branded advisors and clients, and in the case of our products distributed through unaffiliated advisors, by supporting those advisors in building strong client relationships. We believe that our focus on personal relationships, together with our strengths in financial planning and product development and distribution, allow us to fully address the evolving financial needs of our clients and our primary target market segment, the mass affluent and affluent, which we define as households with investable assets of more than $100,000.

Our branded advisors use a financial planning and advisory process designed to provide comprehensive advice that focuses on all aspects of our clients’ finances. This approach allows us to recommend actions and a broad range of product solutions consisting of investment, annuity, insurance, banking and other financial products that can help clients attain over time a return or form of protection while accepting what they determine to be an appropriate range and level of risk. Our approach puts us in a strong position to capitalize on significant demographic and market trends, which we believe will continue to drive increased demand for our financial planning and other financial services. Our emphasis on deep client-advisor relationships has been central to the success of our business model through the extreme market conditions of the past few years, and we believe it will help us to navigate future market and economic cycles.

As of June 30, 2011, we had a network of more than 9,600 financial advisors and registered representatives affiliated with us and doing business under our brand name (“Ameriprise advisors”). The financial product solutions we offer through Ameriprise advisors include both our own products and services and the products of other companies. The Ameriprise advisor network is the primary distribution channel through which we offer our life insurance and annuity products and services, as well as a range of banking and protection products. We offer our advisors training, tools, leadership, marketing programs and other field and centralized support to assist them in delivering advice and product solutions to clients. We support unaffiliated advisors with sales and service support and our solutions which they provide to clients. We believe our approach not only improves the products and services we provide to their clients, but also allows us to reinvest in enhanced services for clients and increase support for financial advisors. Our integrated model of financial planning, diversified product manufacturing and affiliated and non-affiliated product distribution affords us a deep understanding of our clients, which allows us to better manage the risk profile of our businesses. We believe our focus on meeting clients’ needs through personal financial planning results in more satisfied clients with deeper, longer lasting relationships with our company and higher retention of our experienced financial advisors.

We continue to establish Ameriprise Financial as a financial services leader as we focus on meeting the financial needs of the mass affluent and affluent, as evidenced by our continued leadership in financial planning, a client retention percentage rate of 92% and our status as a top ten ranked firm within core portions of our four main operating segments, including the size of our U.S. advisor force, long-term U.S. mutual funds, variable annuities and variable universal life (“VUL”) insurance.

Additionally, Securities America Financial Corporation, through its subsidiaries (collectively, “Securities America”), provides a platform for affiliation of independent financial advisors and registered representatives who do not conduct business under the Ameriprise brand. Securities America operates under its own name, management and legal entity organization, and operating, compliance and technology infrastructure, and historically its results of operations were included in our Advice & Wealth Management segment. During the first quarter of 2011, we determined to identify an appropriate buyer for the Securities America business and transferred the results of operations of Securities America to our Corporate & Other segment. We believe a sale would allow Securities America to focus on growth opportunities in the independent channel and would allow us to devote resources to the Ameriprise branded advisor business. During the second quarter of 2011, the results of Securities America have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented and the related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale.

Table of Contents

We have four main operating segments: Advice & Wealth Management, Asset Management, Annuities and Protection, as well as our Corporate & Other segment. Our four main operating segments are aligned with the financial solutions we offer to address our clients’ needs. The products and services we provide retail clients and, to a lesser extent, institutional clients, are the primary source of our revenues and net income. Revenues and net income are significantly affected by investment performance and the total value and composition of assets we manage and administer for our retail and institutional clients as well as the distribution fees we receive from other companies. These factors, in turn, are largely determined by overall investment market performance and the depth and breadth of our individual client relationships.

Equity price, credit market and interest rate fluctuations can have a significant impact on our results of operations, primarily due to the effects they have on the asset management and other asset-based fees we earn, the “spread” income generated on our annuities, banking and deposit products and universal life (“UL”) insurance products, the value of deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and deferred sales inducement costs (“DSIC”) assets associated with variable annuity and VUL products, the values of liabilities for guaranteed benefits associated with our variable annuities and the values of derivatives held to hedge these benefits.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated the accounting standards related to the required consolidation of certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”). We adopted the accounting standard effective January 1, 2010 and recorded as a cumulative change in accounting principle an increase to appropriated retained earnings of consolidated investment entities of $473 million and consolidated approximately $5.5 billion of client assets and $5.1 billion of liabilities in VIEs onto our Consolidated Balance Sheets that were not previously consolidated. Management views the VIE assets as client assets and the liabilities have recourse only to those assets. While the economics of our business have not changed, the financial statements were impacted. Prior to adoption, we consolidated certain property funds and hedge funds. These entities and the VIEs consolidated as of January 1, 2010, are defined as consolidated investment entities (“CIEs”). Changes in the valuation of the CIE assets and liabilities impact pretax income. The net income of the CIEs is reflected in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. The results of operations of the CIEs are reflected in the Corporate & Other segment. On a consolidated basis, the management fees we earn for the services we provide to the CIEs and the related general and administrative expenses are eliminated and the changes in the assets and liabilities related to the CIEs, primarily debt and underlying syndicated loans, are reflected in net investment income. We continue to include the fees in the management and financial advice fees line within our Asset Management segment.

Management believes that operating measures, which exclude net realized gains or losses; the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization; integration and restructuring charges; income (loss) from discontinued operations; and the impact of consolidating CIEs, best reflect the underlying performance of our core operations and facilitate a more meaningful trend analysis. Management uses certain of these non-GAAP measures to evaluate our financial performance on a basis comparable to that used by some securities analysts and investors. Also, certain of these non-GAAP measures are taken into consideration, to varying degrees, for purposes of business planning and analysis and for certain compensation-related matters. Throughout our Management’s Discussion and Analysis, these non-GAAP measures are referred to as operating measures. While the consolidation of the CIEs impacts our balance sheet and income statement, our exposure to these entities is unchanged and there is no impact to the underlying business results. The CIEs we manage have the following characteristics:

· They were formed on behalf of institutional investors to obtain a diversified investment portfolio and were not formed in order to obtain financing for Ameriprise Financial.

· Ameriprise Financial receives customary, industry standard management fees for the services it provides to these CIEs and has a fiduciary responsibility to maximize the investors’ returns.

· Ameriprise Financial does not have any obligation to provide financial support to the CIEs, does not provide any performance guarantees of the CIEs and has no obligation to absorb the investors’ losses.

· Management excludes the impact of consolidating the CIEs on assets, liabilities, pretax income and equity for setting our financial performance targets and annual incentive award compensation targets.

It is management’s priority to increase shareholder value over a multi-year horizon by achieving our on-average, over-time financial targets.

Table of Contents

Our financial targets are:

· Operating total net revenue growth of 6% to 8%,

· Operating earnings per diluted share growth of 12% to 15%, and

· Operating return on equity excluding accumulated other comprehensive income of 12% to 15%.

Net revenues increased $161 million, or 7%, to $2.6 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $2.5 billion for the prior year period. Operating net revenues exclude net realized gains or losses and revenues of the CIEs and include the fees we earn from services provided to the CIEs. Operating net revenues increased $328 million, or 14%, to $2.6 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $2.3 billion for the prior year period.

Net revenues increased $535 million, or 12%, to $5.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $4.6 billion for the prior year period. Operating net revenues increased $796 million, or 19%, to $5.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $4.3 billion for the prior year period

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Ameriprise Financial per diluted share increased $0.28, or 29%, to $1.25 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $0.97 for the prior year period. Operating earnings exclude net realized gains or losses; the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization; integration and restructuring charges; income (loss) from discontinued operations; and the impact of consolidating CIEs. Operating earnings per diluted share increased $0.28, or 27%, to $1.31 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.03 for the prior year period.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Ameriprise Financial per diluted share increased $0.69, or 39%, to $2.46 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.77 for the prior year period. Operating earnings per diluted share increased $0.76, or 41%, to $2.63 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.87 for the prior year period.

Return on equity excluding accumulated other comprehensive income was 12.8% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 10.6% for the prior year period. Operating return on equity is calculated using operating earnings for the last twelve months in the numerator and the average Ameriprise Financial, Inc. shareholders’ equity from continuing operations excluding the impact of consolidating CIEs and accumulated other comprehensive income as of the last day of the trailing four quarters and the current quarter in the denominator. Operating return on equity excluding accumulated other comprehensive income was 14.5% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 11.5% for the prior year period.

On April 30, 2010, we acquired the long-term asset management business of Columbia Management Group from Bank of America (the “Columbia Management Acquisition”). The acquisition, the integration of which is expected to be completed in 2011, has enhanced the scale and performance of our retail mutual fund and institutional asset management businesses. We incurred pretax non-recurring integration costs related to the Columbia Management Acquisition of $21 million and $50 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. In total, we have incurred $157 million of pretax non-recurring integration costs through June 30, 2011. These costs include system integration costs, proxy and other regulatory filing costs, employee reduction and retention costs, and investment banking, legal and other acquisition costs. We realized integration net synergies of approximately $30 million and $60 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011. Net synergies are on track for our target of $130 million for 2011. We expect annualized net synergies in 2012 of approximately $145 million. The rate of decline in costs from such synergies may vary by quarter.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies that we use affect our Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain of our accounting and reporting policies are critical to an understanding of our consolidated results of operations and financial condition and, in some cases, the application of these policies can be significantly affected by the estimates, judgments and assumptions made by management during the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. These accounting policies are discussed in detail in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis — Critical Accounting Policies” in our 2010 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For information regarding recent accounting pronouncements and their expected impact on our future consolidated results of operations and financial condition, see Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Assets Under Management and Administration

Assets under management (“AUM”) include assets for which we provide investment management services, such as the assets of the Columbia funds and Threadneedle funds, assets of institutional clients and assets of clients in our Ameriprise advisor branded platform held in wrap accounts (“branded client wrap assets”) as well as assets managed by sub-advisors selected by us. AUM also includes certain assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets for which we provide investment management services and recognize management fees in our Asset Management segment, such as the assets of the general account, RiverSource Variable Product funds held in separate accounts of our life insurance subsidiaries and client assets of CIEs. These assets do not include assets under advisement, for which we provide model portfolios but do not have full discretionary investment authority.

Assets under administration (“AUA”) include assets for which we provide administrative services such as client assets invested in other companies’ products that we offer outside of our wrap accounts. These assets include those held in clients’ brokerage accounts. We generally record fees received from administered assets as distribution fees. We do not exercise management discretion over these assets and do not earn a management fee. These assets are not reported on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. AUA also includes certain assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets for which we do not provide investment management services and do not recognize management fees, such as investments in non-affiliated funds held in the separate accounts of our life insurance subsidiaries. These assets do not include assets under advisement, for which we provide model portfolios but do not have full discretionary investment authority.

The following table presents detail regarding our AUM and AUA:

	June 30,
	2011			2010			Change
	(in billions)
Assets Under Management and Administration
Advice & Wealth Management AUM	$	105.9		$	83.0		28	%

Eliminations	(13.4		)	(10.6		)	(26	)
Total Assets Under Management	559.7			485.7			15
Total Assets Under Administration	110.5			89.5			23
Total AUM and AUA	$	670.2		$	575.2		17	%

Total AUM increased $74.0 billion, or 15%, to $559.7 billion as of June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to market appreciation and branded client wrap account net inflows. Total AUA increased $21.0 billion, or 23%, to $110.5 billion as of June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to market appreciation.

Consolidated Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010

In June 2009, the FASB updated the accounting standards related to the required consolidation of certain VIEs. We adopted the accounting standard effective January 1, 2010 and recorded as a cumulative change in accounting principle an increase to appropriated retained earnings of consolidated investment entities of $473 million and consolidated approximately $5.5 billion of client assets and $5.1 billion of liabilities in VIEs onto our Consolidated Balance Sheets that were not previously consolidated. Management views the VIE assets as client assets and the liabilities have recourse only to those assets. While the economics of our business have not changed, the financial statements were impacted. Prior to adoption, we consolidated certain property funds and hedge funds. These entities and the VIEs consolidated as of January 1, 2010, are defined as CIEs. Changes in the valuation of the CIE assets and liabilities impact pretax income. The net income of the CIEs is reflected in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. On a consolidated basis, the management fees we earn for the services we provide to the CIEs and the related general and administrative expenses are eliminated and the changes in the assets and liabilities related to the CIEs, primarily debt and underlying syndicated loans, are reflected in net investment income.

Overall

Net income attributable to Ameriprise Financial increased $50 million, or 19%, to $309 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $259 million for the prior year period. Net income from continuing operations attributable to Ameriprise Financial increased $56 million, or 22%, to $313 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $257 million for the prior year period. Operating net income attributable to Ameriprise Financial excludes net realized gains or losses; the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization; integration and restructuring charges; income (loss) from discontinued operations; and the impact of consolidating CIEs. Operating net income attributable to Ameriprise Financial increased $56 million, or 21%, to $328 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $272 million for the prior year period reflecting higher revenues from business growth, partially offset by a higher tax rate.

Net Revenues

Management and financial advice fees increased $262 million, or 29%, to $1.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $910 million for the prior year period. Operating management and financial advice fees include the fees we earn from services provided to the CIEs. Operating management and financial advice fees increased $262 million, or 28%, to $1.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $920 million for the prior year period primarily due to an additional month of business acquired in the Columbia Management Acquisition and higher asset levels reflecting market appreciation and net inflows in branded client wrap assets. The daily average S&P 500 Index increased 16% compared to the prior year period. Branded client wrap assets increased $22.8 billion, or 27%, to $105.9 billion at June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period due to net inflows and market appreciation. Average variable annuities contract accumulation values increased $9.4 billion, or 19%, from the prior year period due to higher equity market levels, as well as net inflows. Total Asset Management AUM increased $53.9 billion, or 13%, to $467.2 billion at June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to market appreciation, partially offset by net outflows.

Table of Contents

Distribution fees increased $29 million, or 7%, to $416 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $387 million in the prior year period primarily due to higher asset-based fees driven by growth in assets from market appreciation and net inflows in branded client wrap assets, as well as increased client activity.

Net investment income decreased $157 million, or 24%, to $498 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $655 million in the prior year period. Net investment income for the second quarter of 2011 included a $17 million gain for changes in the assets and liabilities of CIEs, primarily debt and underlying syndicated loans, compared to $155 million in the prior year period. Operating net investment income excludes net realized gains or losses and changes in the assets and liabilities of CIEs. Operating net investment income decreased $18 million, or 4%, to $475 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $493 million for the prior year period due to a decrease in investment income on fixed maturity securities driven by lower invested assets resulting from net outflows in certificates driven by lower interest crediting rates and lower investments in annuity general account assets due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program, a variable annuity asset allocation program, in the second quarter of 2010 and lower interest sensitive fixed annuity account balances.

Premiums increased $13 million, or 4%, to $312 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $299 million for the prior year period primarily due to growth in Auto and Home premiums driven by higher volumes, as well as higher sales of immediate annuities with life contingencies. Auto and Home policy counts increased 9% period-over-period.

Other revenues increased $5 million, or 2%, to $236 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $231 million in the prior year period. Operating other revenues exclude revenues of the CIEs. Operating other revenues increased $33 million, or 18%, to $218 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $185 million in the prior year period. During the second quarter of 2011, we reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings a $27 million gain on an interest rate hedge put in place in anticipation of issuing debt between December 2010 and June 2011. We did not issue debt and do not plan to issue debt in the foreseeable future. Operating other revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 also included higher fees from variable annuity guarantees driven by higher in force amounts compared to the prior year period.

Banking and deposit interest expense decreased $9 million, or 45%, to $11 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $20 million in the prior year period primarily due to lower certificate balances, as well as a decrease in crediting rates on certificate products.

Expenses

Total expenses increased $224 million, or 11%, to $2.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $2.0 billion for the prior year period. Operating expenses exclude the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization; integration and restructuring charges; and expenses of the CIEs. Operating expenses increased $225 million, or 12%, to $2.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.9 billion for the prior year period primarily due to increases in distribution expenses and general and administrative expense.

Distribution expenses increased $115 million, or 22%, to $643 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $528 million for the prior year period as a result of market appreciation and the Columbia Management Acquisition, as well as higher advisor compensation from business growth.

Interest credited to fixed accounts decreased $19 million, or 8%, to $212 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $231 million for the prior year period driven by lower average variable annuities fixed sub-account balances and a lower average crediting rate on interest sensitive fixed annuities, as well as lower average fixed annuity account balances. Average variable annuities fixed sub-account balances decreased $747 million, or 14%, to $4.8 billion for the second quarter of 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program in the second quarter of 2010. The average fixed annuity crediting rate excluding capitalized interest decreased to 3.7% in the second quarter of 2011 compared to 3.9% in the prior year period. Average fixed annuities contract accumulation values decreased $290 million, or 2%, to $14.3 billion for the second quarter of 2011 compared to the prior year period.

Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased $109 million, or 37%, to $406 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $297 million for the prior year period. Operating benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses, which exclude the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges and DSIC amortization, increased $34 million, or 9%, to $399 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $365 million for the prior year period. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses related to our Auto and Home business increased from the prior year period primarily due to $15 million of catastrophe losses from storms in April and May and $10 million of higher auto liability reserves reflecting elevated reserve levels based on late 2010 experience. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses for the prior year period included a $21 million expense, net of DSIC, as a result of the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program and a $5 million benefit related to an adjustment for revisions to certain calculations in our valuation of DSIC. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses related to our immediate annuities with life contingencies

Table of Contents

increased compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher premiums. In addition, benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased as a result of higher universal life claims and a $7 million increase in ongoing reserve levels for universal life products with secondary guarantees compared to the prior year period.

Amortization of DAC decreased $33 million, or 19%, to $138 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $171 million for the prior year period. Operating amortization of DAC, which excludes the DAC offset to the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, increased $8 million, or 6%, to $138 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $130 million for the prior year period. The market impact to amortization of DAC was a benefit of $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to an expense of $33 million for the prior year period. Amortization of DAC for the three months ended June 30, 2010 included a benefit of $19 million as a result of the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program and a $28 million benefit related to an adjustment for revisions to certain calculations in our valuation of DAC.

Interest and debt expense increased $1 million, or 1%, to $75 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $74 million for the prior year period. Operating interest and debt expense, which excludes interest expense on CIE debt, decreased $5 million, or 17%, to $24 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $29 million for the prior year period due to the impact of hedges on fixed rate debt.

General and administrative expense increased $51 million, or 7%, to $750 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $699 million for the prior year period. Operating general and administrative expense excludes integration and restructuring charges and expenses of the CIEs. Integration and restructuring charges decreased $36 million to $21 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $57 million in the prior year period. Operating general and administrative expense increased $92 million, or 14%, to $727 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $635 million for the prior year period primarily reflecting an additional month of ongoing expenses from the Columbia Management Acquisition, higher compensation expense, a negative impact of foreign currency translation and higher costs related to new product and distribution investments compared to the prior year period. The negative impact of foreign currency translation on general and administrative expense is offset by the positive impact of foreign currency translation on management and financial advice fees.

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate on income from continuing operations including income attributable to noncontrolling interests was 28.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to 14.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

On September 25, 2007, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued Revenue Ruling 2007-61 in which it announced that it intends to issue regulations with respect to certain computational aspects of the Dividends Received Deduction (“DRD”) related to separate account assets held in connection with variable contracts of life insurance companies. Any regulations that the IRS ultimately proposes for issuance in this area will be subject to public notice and comment, at which time insurance companies and other members of the public will have the opportunity to raise legal and practical questions about the content, scope and application of such regulations. As a result, the ultimate timing and substance of any such regulations are unknown at this time, but they may result in the elimination of some or all of the separate account DRD tax benefit that we receive.

Advice & Wealth Management

Our Advice & Wealth Management segment provides financial planning and advice, as well as full service brokerage and banking services, primarily to retail clients through our Ameriprise financial advisors. Ameriprise financial advisors utilize a diversified selection of both affiliated and non-affiliated products to help clients meet their financial needs. A significant portion of revenues in this segment is fee-based, driven by the level of client assets, which is impacted by both market movements and net asset flows. We also earn net investment income on invested assets primarily from certificate and banking products. This segment earns revenues (distribution fees) for distributing non-affiliated products and earns intersegment revenues (distribution fees) for distributing our affiliated products and services to our retail clients. Intersegment expenses for this segment include expenses for investment management services provided by the Asset Management segment.

In addition to purchases of affiliated and non-affiliated mutual funds and other securities on a stand-alone basis, clients may purchase mutual funds, among other securities, in connection with investment advisory fee-based “wrap account” programs or services, and pay fees based on a percentage of their assets.

Distribution expenses increased $80 million, or 16%, to $574 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $494 million for the prior year period primarily due to higher advisor compensation from business growth.

Asset Management

Our Asset Management segment provides investment advice and investment products to retail and institutional clients. Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (formerly RiverSource Investments, LLC, and referred to as “Columbia” or “Columbia Management”) predominantly provides U.S. domestic products and services and Threadneedle Asset Management Holdings Sàrl (“Threadneedle”) predominantly provides international investment products and services. Columbia retail products are distributed through unaffiliated third party financial institutions, through our Advice & Wealth Management segment and also through Bank of America and its affiliates. Institutional products and services are primarily sold through our institutional sales force. Threadneedle retail products are primarily distributed through third parties. Retail products include mutual funds and variable product funds underlying insurance and annuity separate accounts. Institutional asset management services are designed to meet specific client objectives and may involve a range of products including those that focus on traditional asset classes, separately managed accounts, individually managed accounts, collateralized loan obligations, hedge funds, collective funds and property funds. Revenues in this segment are primarily earned as fees based on managed asset balances, which are impacted by both market movements and net asset flows. In addition to the products and services provided to third party clients, management teams serving our Asset Management segment provide all intercompany asset management services. The fees for all such services are reflected within the Asset Management segment results through intersegment transfer pricing. Intersegment expenses for this segment include distribution expenses for services provided by the Advice & Wealth Management, Annuities and Protection segments.

On April 30, 2010, we completed the acquisition of the long-term asset management business of the Columbia Management Group from Bank of America. The acquisition significantly enhanced the capabilities of the Asset Management segment by increasing its scale, broadening its retail and institutional distribution capabilities and strengthening and diversifying its lineup of retail and institutional products. The integration of the Columbia Management business, which is ongoing and is expected to be completed in 2011, has involved organizational changes to our portfolio management and analytical teams and to our operational, compliance, sales and marketing support staffs. This integration has also involved the streamlining of our U.S. domestic product offerings, a process that is ongoing. As a result of the integration, we combined RiverSource Investments, our legacy U.S. asset management business, with Columbia Management, under the Columbia brand. Total U.S. retail assets and number of funds under the Columbia brand as of June 30, 2011 were $225.4 billion and 221 funds, respectively.

Threadneedle will remain our primary international investment management platform. Threadneedle manages four Open Ended Investment Companies (“OEICs”) and one Societe d’Investissement A Capital Variable (“SICAV”) offering. The four OEICs are Threadneedle Investment Funds ICVC (“TIF”), Threadneedle Specialist Investment Funds ICVC (“TSIF”), Threadneedle Focus Investment Funds (“TFIF”) and Threadneedle Advantage Portfolio Funds (“TPAF”). TIF, TSIF, TFIF and TPAF are structured as umbrella companies with a total of 52 (33, 14, 2 and 3, respectively) sub funds covering the world’s bond and equity markets. The SICAV is the Threadneedle (Lux) SICAV (“T(Lux)”). T(Lux) is structured as an umbrella company with a total of 30 sub funds covering the world’s bond, commodities and equity markets. In addition, Threadneedle manages 13 unit trusts, 10 of which invest into the OEICs, 6 property unit trusts and 1 property fund of funds.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2011, mutual fund performance rankings are based on the performance of Class Z fund shares for Columbia branded mutual funds. In instances where a fund’s Class Z shares do not have a full one, three or five year track record, performance for an older share class of the same fund, typically Class A shares, is utilized for the period before Class Z shares were launched. No adjustments to the historical track records are made to account for differences in fund expenses between share classes of a fund.

Equal Weighted Rankings in Top 2 Quartiles: Counts the number of funds with above median ranking divided by the total number of funds. Asset size is not a factor.

Asset Weighted Rankings in Top 2 Quartiles: Sums the total assets of the funds with above median ranking (using Class Z and appended Class Z) divided by total assets of all funds. Funds with more assets will receive a greater share of the total percentage above or below median.

Aggregated data includes all Columbia branded mutual funds.

Data not shown prior to second quarter 2011. History will be built using the new format going forward.

The performance of each fund is measured on a consistent basis against the most appropriate benchmark — a peer group of similar funds or an index.

Equal weighted: Counts the number of funds with above median ranking (if measured against peer group) or above index performance (if measured against an index) divided by the total number of funds. Asset size is not a factor.

Asset weighted: Sums the assets of the funds with above median ranking (if measured against peer group) or above index performance (if measured against an index) divided by the total sum of assets in the funds. Funds with more assets will receive a greater share of the total percentage above or below median or index.

Aggregated Allocation (Managed) Funds include funds that invest in other funds of the Threadneedle range including those funds that invest in both equity and fixed income.

(1) Distributions of Retail Funds are included in market appreciation (depreciation) and other.

(2) Prior to the Columbia Management Acquisition, the domestic managed assets of our Asset Management segment, which are now included in Columbia Managed Assets, were managed by RiverSource Investments.

(3) Included in Market appreciation (depreciation) and other is $118.1 billion due to the Columbia Management Acquisition, including $3 billion of assets that were transferred to RiverSource Sub-advised through the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program, and an additional $13.1 billion of Portfolio Navigator related assets sub-advised by others.

(4) Included in Market appreciation (depreciation) and other is $68.4 billion due to the Columbia Management Acquisition.

Columbia assets under management were $362.0 billion at June 30, 2011 compared to $327.4 billion a year ago driven by market appreciation, partially offset by net outflows. Columbia net outflows were $246 million in the second quarter 2011 compared to net outflows of $3.8 billion in the second quarter 2010. The improvement in net flows reflected lower retail redemptions, improved institutional net flows and reinvested dividends. Threadneedle assets under management were $110.4 billion at June 30, 2011, up 24% from a year ago reflecting market appreciation and positive foreign currency translation, partially offset by net outflows. Second quarter 2011 net inflows at Threadneedle were $1.7 billion compared to net outflows of $1.1 billion in the second quarter 2010. European retail redemptions slowed significantly, and excluding outflows in lower-margin Zurich portfolios, Threadneedle had strong institutional net inflows in the second quarter 2011. Investment performance at Columbia Management and Threadneedle continues to be strong.

(1) Adjustments include net realized gains or losses and integration charges.

Our Asset Management segment pretax income was $125 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $56 million for the prior year period. Our Asset Management segment pretax operating income, which excludes net realized gains or losses and integration charges, increased $42 million, or 40%, to $146 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $104 million for the prior year period. Earnings in the second quarter of 2011 reflected a full quarter of Columbia Management earnings compared to two months in the prior year period, which impacted revenues and expenses. Earnings growth in the second quarter of 2011 was also driven by asset growth and expense synergies. Pretax margin was 16.6% for the second quarter of 2011 compared to 10.0% for the prior year period. Pretax operating margin was 19.4% for the second quarter of 2011 compared to 18.5% for the prior year period.

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased $191 million, or 34%, to $753 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $562 million for the prior year period driven by an increase in management fees due to an additional month of business resulting from the Columbia Management Acquisition and growth in assets from market appreciation, partially offset by net outflows.

Management and financial advice fees increased $156 million, or 33%, to $627 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $471 million for the prior year period due to an additional month of business resulting from the Columbia Management Acquisition and growth in assets from market appreciation, partially offset by net outflows. The daily average S&P 500 Index increased 16% compared to the prior year period. Total Asset Management AUM increased $53.9 billion, or 13%, to $467.2 billion at June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to market appreciation, partially offset by net outflows.

Distribution fees increased $35 million, or 40%, to $123 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $88 million for the prior year period driven by an additional month of business resulting from the Columbia Management Acquisition and growth in assets from market appreciation, partially offset by net outflows.

Expenses

Total expenses increased $122 million, or 24%, to $628 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $506 million for the prior year period. Operating expenses, which exclude integration charges, increased $149 million, or 33%, to $607 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $458 million for the prior year period due to higher distribution expenses and general and administrative expenses. We realized integration net synergies of approximately $30 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Distribution expenses increased $74 million, or 40%, to $260 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $186 million for the prior year period primarily due to an additional month of business resulting from the Columbia Management Acquisition and growth in assets from market appreciation, partially offset by net outflows.

General and administrative expense increased $47 million, or 15%, to $362 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $315 million for the prior year period. Integration charges decreased $27 million to $21 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $48 million in the prior year period. Operating general and administrative expense, which excludes integration charges, increased $74 million, or 28%, to $341 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $267 million for the prior year period primarily reflecting an additional month of ongoing expenses from the Columbia Management Acquisition, higher Threadneedle equity-based compensation expenses, a negative impact of foreign currency translation and higher costs related to new product and distribution investments. The negative impact of foreign currency translation on general and administrative expense is offset by the positive impact of foreign currency translation on management and financial advice fees.

Annuities

Our Annuities segment provides variable and fixed annuity products of RiverSource Life companies to retail clients. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2010, our variable annuity products were distributed through affiliated financial advisors as well as unaffiliated advisors through third-party distribution. During the fourth quarter of 2010, we discontinued new sales of our variable annuities in non-Ameriprise channels to further strengthen the risk and return characteristics of the business. Our fixed annuity products are distributed through affiliated advisors as well as unaffiliated advisors through third-party distribution. Revenues for our variable annuity products are primarily earned as fees based on underlying account balances, which are impacted by both market movements and net asset flows. Revenues for our fixed annuity products are primarily earned as net investment income on invested assets supporting fixed account balances, with profitability significantly impacted by the spread between net investment income earned and interest credited on the fixed account balances. We also earn net investment income on invested assets supporting reserves for immediate annuities and for certain guaranteed benefits offered with variable annuities and on capital supporting the business. Intersegment revenues for this segment reflect fees paid by the Asset Management segment for marketing support and other services provided in connection with the availability of RiverSource Variable Series Trust, Columbia Funds Variable Insurance Trust, Columbia Funds Variable Insurance Trust I and Wanger Advisors Trust funds under the variable annuity contracts. Intersegment expenses for this segment include distribution expenses for services provided by the Advice & Wealth Management segment, as well as expenses for investment management services provided by the Asset Management segment.

Management believes that operating measures, which exclude net realized gains or losses and the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization, for our Annuities segment, best reflect the underlying performance of our core operations and facilitate a more meaningful trend analysis. See our discussion on the use of these non-GAAP measures in the Overview section above.

(1) Adjustments include net realized gains or losses and the market impact on variable annuity living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization.

Our Annuities segment pretax income increased $10 million, or 8%, to $143 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $133 million for the prior year period. Our Annuities segment pretax operating income, which excludes net realized gains or losses and the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization, increased $47 million, or 46%, to $149 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $102 million in the prior year period.

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased $36 million, or 6%, to $666 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $630 million for the prior year period. Operating net revenues, which exclude net realized gains or losses, increased $39 million, or 6%, to $665 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $626 million for the prior year period reflecting higher fee revenue from increased variable annuity separate account balances and higher fees from variable annuity guarantees, partially offset by a decline in net investment income.

Management and financial advice fees increased $31 million, or 24%, to $161 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $130 million for the prior year period due to higher fees on variable annuities driven by higher separate account balances. Average variable annuities contract accumulation values increased $9.4 billion, or 19%, from the prior year period due to higher equity market levels, as well as net inflows. Variable annuity net inflows in the second quarter of 2011 included strong sales in the Ameriprise channel. We discontinued new sales of variable annuities through non-Ameriprise channels in the fourth quarter of 2010 to further strengthen the risk return characteristics of the business, and the resulting outflows were in line with expectations.

Table of Contents

Distribution fees increased $4 million, or 5%, to $80 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $76 million for the prior year period primarily due to higher fees on variable annuities driven by higher separate account balances.

Net investment income decreased $21 million, or 6%, to $309 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $330 million in the prior year period. Operating net investment income, which excludes net realized gains or losses, decreased $18 million, or 6%, to $308 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $326 million for the prior year period due to a decrease in investment income on fixed maturity securities primarily reflecting lower investments in the general account due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program in the second quarter of 2010 and lower interest sensitive fixed annuity account balances.

Premiums increased $7 million, or 17%, to $49 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $42 million for the prior year period due to higher sales of immediate annuities with life contingencies.

Other revenues increased $15 million, or 29%, to $67 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $52 million for the prior year period due to higher fees from variable annuity guarantees driven by higher in force amounts.

Expenses

Total expenses increased $26 million, or 5%, to $523 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $497 million for the prior year period. Operating expenses, which exclude the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization, decreased $8 million, or 2%, to $516 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $524 million for the prior year period primarily due to a decrease in interest credited to fixed accounts partially offset by an increase in distribution expenses.

Distribution expenses increased $11 million, or 16%, to $81 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $70 million for the prior year period from increased variable annuity sales and asset-based compensation.

Interest credited to fixed accounts decreased $17 million, or 9%, to $177 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $194 million for the prior year period driven by lower average variable annuities fixed sub-account balances and a lower average crediting rate on interest sensitive fixed annuities, as well as lower average fixed annuity account balances. Average variable annuities fixed sub-account balances decreased $747 million, or 14%, to $4.8 billion for the second quarter of 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program in the second quarter of 2010. The average fixed annuity crediting rate excluding capitalized interest decreased to 3.7% in the second quarter of 2011 compared to 3.9% in the prior year period. Average fixed annuities contract accumulation values decreased $290 million, or 2%, to $14.3 billion for the second quarter of 2011 compared to the prior year period. Fixed annuities remained in net outflows due to low client demand given current interest rates.

Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased $69 million to $127 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $58 million for the prior year period. Operating benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses, which exclude the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges and DSIC amortization, decreased $6 million, or 5%, to $120 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $126 million in the prior year period. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses for the prior year period included a $21 million expense, net of DSIC, as a result of the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program and a $5 million benefit related to an adjustment for revisions to certain calculations in our valuation of DSIC. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses related to our immediate annuities with life contingencies increased compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher premiums.

Amortization of DAC decreased $39 million, or 32%, to $82 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $121 million in the prior year period. Operating amortization of DAC, which excludes the DAC offset to the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, increased $2 million, or 3%, to $82 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $80 million in the prior year period. The market impact to amortization of DAC was a benefit of $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to an expense of $29 million for the prior year period. Amortization of DAC for the three months ended June 30, 2010 included a benefit of $13 million as a result of the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program and a $21 million benefit related to an adjustment for revisions to certain calculations in our valuation of DAC.

Protection

Our Protection segment offers a variety of protection products to address the protection and risk management needs of our retail clients including life, disability income and property-casualty insurance. Life and disability income products are primarily distributed through Ameriprise advisors. Our property-casualty products are sold direct, primarily through affinity relationships. We issue insurance policies through our life insurance subsidiaries and the property casualty companies. The primary sources of revenues for this segment are premiums, fees, and charges we receive to assume insurance-related risk. We earn net investment income on invested assets supporting insurance reserves and capital supporting the business. We also receive fees based on the level of assets supporting variable universal life separate account balances. This segment earns intersegment revenues from fees paid by the Asset Management segment for marketing support and other services provided in connection with the availability of RiverSource Variable Series Trust, Columbia Funds Variable Insurance Trust, Columbia Funds Variable Insurance Trust I and Wanger Advisors Trust funds under the variable universal life contracts. Intersegment expenses for this segment include distribution expenses for services provided by the Advice & Wealth Management segment, as well as expenses for investment management services provided by the Asset Management segment.

Management believes that operating measures, which exclude net realized gains or losses for our Protection segment, best reflect the underlying performance of our core operations and facilitate a more meaningful trend analysis. See our discussion on the use of these non-GAAP measures in the Overview section above.

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased $6 million, or 1%, to $525 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $519 million for the prior year period. Operating net revenues, which exclude net realized gains or losses, increased $4 million, or 1%, to $522 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $518 million for the prior year period due to Auto and Home premium growth.

Premiums increased $5 million, or 2%, to $267 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $262 million for the prior year period due to growth in Auto and Home premiums driven by higher volumes. Auto and Home policy counts increased 9% period-over-period.

Expenses

Total expenses increased $50 million, or 13%, to $435 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $385 million for the prior year period primarily due to an increase in benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses.

Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased $40 million, or 17%, to $279 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $239 million for the prior year period reflecting $15 million of catastrophe losses in our Auto and Home business from storms in April and May, $10 million of higher auto liability reserves reflecting elevated reserve levels based on late 2010 experience, a $7 million increase in ongoing reserve levels for universal life products with secondary guarantees, and higher universal life claims compared to the prior year period when they were unusually favorable.

Corporate & Other

Our Corporate & Other segment consists of net investment income on corporate level assets, including excess capital held in our subsidiaries and other unallocated equity and other revenues from various investments as well as unallocated corporate expenses. The Corporate & Other segment also includes revenues and expenses of CIEs.

Management believes that operating measures, which exclude net realized gains or losses, integration and restructuring charges and the impact of consolidating CIEs for our Corporate & Other segment, best reflect the underlying performance of our core operations and facilitate a more meaningful trend analysis. See our discussion on the use of these non-GAAP measures in the Overview section above.

Operating net income attributable to Ameriprise Financial excludes net realized gains or losses; the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization; integration and restructuring charges; income (loss) of discontinued operations; and the impact of consolidating CIEs. Operating net income attributable to Ameriprise Financial increased $173 million, or 35%, to $669 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $496 million for the prior year period reflecting higher revenues from business growth and an additional four months of Columbia Management results, partially offset by a higher tax rate.

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased $535 million, or 12%, to $5.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $4.6 billion for the prior year period. Operating net revenues exclude net realized gains or losses and revenues of the CIEs and include the fees we earn from services provided to the CIEs. Operating net revenues increased $796 million, or 19%, to $5.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $4.3 billion for the prior year period driven by growth in asset-based fees from net inflows in branded client wrap assets, market appreciation and the Columbia Management Acquisition.

Management and financial advice fees increased $667 million, or 41%, to $2.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.6 billion for the prior year period. Operating management and financial advice fees include the fees we earn from services provided to the CIEs. Operating management and financial advice fees increased $668 million, or 40%, to $2.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.7 billion for the prior year period primarily due to an additional four months of business resulting from the Columbia Management Acquisition and higher asset levels reflecting market appreciation and net inflows in branded client wrap assets. The daily average S&P 500 Index increased 16% compared to the prior year period. Branded client wrap assets increased $22.8 billion, or 27%, to $105.9 billion at June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period due to net inflows and market appreciation. Average variable annuities contract accumulation values increased $9.5 billion, or 19%, from the prior year period due to higher equity market levels, as well as net inflows. Total Asset Management AUM increased $53.9 billion, or 13%, to $467.2 billion at June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to market appreciation, partially offset by net outflows.

Distribution fees increased $100 million, or 14%, to $813 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $713 million in the prior year period primarily due to higher asset-based fees driven by the Columbia Management Acquisition and growth in assets from market appreciation and net inflows in branded client wrap assets, as well as increased client activity.

Net investment income decreased $231 million, or 19%, to $1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.2 billion in the prior year period. Net investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 included a $44 million gain for changes in the assets and liabilities of CIEs, primarily debt and underlying syndicated loans, compared to $234 million in the prior year period. Operating net investment income excludes net realized gains or losses and changes in the assets and liabilities of CIEs. Operating net investment income decreased $36 million, or 4%, to $962 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $998 million for the prior year period due to a decrease in investment income on fixed maturity securities driven by lower invested assets resulting from net outflows in certificates driven by lower interest crediting rates and lower investments in annuity general account assets due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program in the second quarter of 2010 and lower interest sensitive fixed annuity account balances.

Premiums increased $23 million, or 4%, to $604 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $581 million for the prior year period primarily due to growth in Auto and Home premiums driven by higher volumes, as well as higher sales of immediate annuities with life contingencies. Auto and Home policy counts increased 9% period-over-period.

Other revenues decreased $41 million, or 9%, to $440 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $481 million in the prior year period. Operating other revenues exclude revenues of the CIEs. Operating other revenues increased $24 million, or 6%, to $402 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $378 million in the prior year period. During the second quarter of 2011, we reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings a $27 million gain on an interest rate hedge put in place in anticipation of issuing debt between December 2010 and June 2011. We did not issue debt and do not plan to issue debt in the foreseeable future. Operating other revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 also included higher fees from variable annuity guarantees driven by higher in force amounts compared to the prior year period, offset by a $20 million benefit from payments related to the Reserve Funds matter in the first quarter of 2010.

Banking and deposit interest expense decreased $17 million, or 41%, to $24 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $41 million in the prior year period primarily due to lower certificate balances, as well as a decrease in crediting rates on certificate products.

Expenses

Total expenses increased $569 million, or 15%, to $4.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $3.8 billion for the prior year period. Operating expenses exclude the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization; integration and restructuring charges; and expenses of the CIEs. Operating expenses increased $538 million, or 15%, to $4.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $3.6 billion for the prior year period primarily due to increases in distribution expenses and general and administrative expense.

Distribution expenses increased $298 million, or 31%, to $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $964 million in the prior year period as a result of market appreciation and the Columbia Management Acquisition, as well as higher advisor compensation from business growth.

Interest credited to fixed accounts decreased $40 million, or 9%, to $419 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $459 million for the prior year period driven by lower average variable annuities fixed sub-account balances and a lower average crediting rate on interest sensitive fixed annuities, as well as lower average fixed annuity account balances. Average variable annuities fixed sub-account balances decreased $918 million, or 16%, to $4.8 billion for the first half of 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program in the second quarter of 2010. The average fixed annuity crediting rate excluding capitalized interest decreased to 3.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 3.9% in the prior year period. Average fixed annuities contract accumulation values decreased $254 million, or 2%, to $14.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period.

Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased $139 million, or 21%, to $788 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $649 million for the prior year period. Operating benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses, which exclude the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges and DSIC amortization, increased $60 million, or 9%, to $754 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $694 million for the prior year period. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses related to our Auto and Home business increased from the prior year period primarily due to $15 million of catastrophe losses from storms in April and May and higher auto liability reserves reflecting elevated reserve levels based on late 2010 experience. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses for the prior year period included a $21 million expense, net of DSIC, as a result of the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program and a $5 million benefit related to an adjustment for revisions to certain calculations in our valuation of DSIC. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses related to our immediate annuities with life contingencies increased compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher premiums. In addition, benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased as a result of higher universal life claims and reserves for universal life products with secondary guarantees compared to the prior year period.

Amortization of DAC decreased $35 million, or 12%, to $254 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $289 million in the prior year period. Operating amortization of DAC, which excludes the DAC offset to the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, increased $10 million, or 4%, to $264 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $254 million for the prior year period. The market impact to amortization of DAC was a benefit of $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to an expense of $26 million for the prior year period. Amortization of DAC for the six months ended June 30, 2010 included a benefit of $19 million as a result of the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program and a $28 million benefit related to an adjustment for revisions to certain calculations in our valuation of DAC.

Interest and debt expense increased $12 million, or 9%, to $150 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $138 million in the prior year period. Operating interest and debt expense, which excludes interest expense on CIE debt, decreased $4 million, or 8%, to $49 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $53 million in the prior year period due to the impact of hedges on fixed rate debt.

Operating general and administrative expense excludes integration and restructuring charges and expenses of the CIEs. Integration and restructuring charges decreased $14 million to $50 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $64 million in the prior year period. Operating general and administrative expense increased $214 million, or 17%, to $1.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.2 billion for the prior year period primarily reflecting an additional four months of ongoing expenses from the Columbia Management Acquisition, as well as higher compensation expense and an increase in investment spending compared to the prior year period.

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased $74 million, or 6%, to $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.2 billion for the prior year period. Operating net revenues, which exclude net realized gains or losses, increased $83 million, or 7%, to $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.2 billion for the prior year period reflecting higher fee revenue from increased variable annuity separate account balances and higher fees from variable annuity guarantees, partially offset by a decline in net investment income.

Management and financial advice fees increased $59 million, or 23%, to $316 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $257 million for the prior year period due to higher fees on variable annuities driven by higher separate account balances. Average variable annuities contract accumulation values increased $9.5 billion, or 19%, from the prior year period due to higher equity market levels, as well as net inflows. Variable annuity net inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 included strong sales in the Ameriprise channel. We discontinued new sales of variable annuities through non-Ameriprise channels in the fourth quarter of 2010 to further strengthen the risk return characteristics of the business, and the resulting outflows were in line with expectations.

Distribution fees increased $10 million, or 7%, to $156 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $146 million for the prior year period primarily due to higher fees on variable annuities driven by higher separate account balances.

Net investment income decreased $31 million, or 5%, to $629 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $660 million in the prior year period. Operating net investment income, which excludes net realized gains or losses, decreased $22 million, or 3%, to $631 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $653 million for the prior year period due to a decrease in investment income on fixed maturity securities primarily reflecting lower investments in the general account due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program in the second quarter of 2010 and lower interest sensitive fixed annuity account balances.

Premiums increased $10 million, or 14%, to $83 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $73 million for the prior year period due to higher sales of immediate annuities with life contingencies.

Other revenues increased $26 million, or 27%, to $122 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $96 million for the prior year period due to higher fees from variable annuity guarantees driven by higher in force amounts.

Expenses

Total expenses increased $30 million, or 3%, to $1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $979 million for the prior year period. Operating expenses, which exclude the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges, DSIC and DAC amortization, decreased $4 million to $985 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $989 million for the prior year period primarily due to a decrease in interest credited to fixed accounts partially offset by an increase in distribution expenses.

Distribution expenses increased $26 million, or 20%, to $157 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $131 million for the prior year period primarily due to higher variable annuity compensation.

Interest credited to fixed accounts decreased $37 million, or 10%, to $349 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $386 million for the prior year period driven by lower average variable annuities fixed sub-account balances and a lower average crediting rate on interest sensitive fixed annuities, as well as lower average fixed annuity account balances. Average variable annuities fixed sub-account balances decreased $918 million, or 16%, to $4.8 billion for the first half of 2011 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program in the second quarter of 2010. The average fixed annuity crediting rate excluding capitalized interest decreased to 3.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 3.9% in the prior year period. Average fixed annuities contract accumulation values decreased $254 million, or 2%, to $14.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period. Fixed annuities remained in net outflows due to low client demand given current interest rates.

Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased $74 million, or 42%, to $250 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $176 million for the prior year period. Operating benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses, which exclude the market impact on variable annuity guaranteed living benefits, net of hedges and DSIC amortization, decreased $5 million, or 2%, to $216 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $221 million in the prior year period. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses for the prior year period included a $21 million expense, net of DSIC, as a result of the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program and a $5 million benefit related to an adjustment for revisions to certain calculations in our valuation of DSIC. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses related to our immediate annuities with life contingencies increased compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher premiums.

Operating net revenues, which exclude net realized gains or losses, increased $16 million, or 2%, to $1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.0 billion for the prior year period primarily due to Auto and Home premium growth and higher investment income driven by growth in assets.

Table of Contents

Net investment income increased $6 million, or 3%, to $220 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $214 million for the prior year period. Operating net investment income, which excludes net realized gains or losses, increased $4 million, or 2%, to $216 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $212 million for the prior year period primarily due to growth in assets.

Premiums increased $12 million, or 2%, to $529 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $517 million for the prior year period due to growth in Auto and Home premiums driven by higher volumes. Auto and Home policy counts increased 9% period-over-period.

Expenses

Total expenses increased $74 million, or 10%, to $845 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $771 million for the prior year period primarily due to an increase in benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses.

Fair Value Measurements

We report certain assets and liabilities at fair value; specifically, separate account assets, derivatives, embedded derivatives, properties held by our consolidated property funds, and most investments and cash equivalents. Fair value assumes the exchange of assets or liabilities occurs in orderly transactions. Companies are not permitted to use market prices that are the result of a forced liquidation or distressed sale. We include actual market prices, or observable inputs, in our fair value measurements to the extent available. Broker quotes are obtained when quotes from pricing services are not available. We validate prices obtained from third parties through a variety of means such as: price variance analysis, subsequent sales testing, stale price review, price comparison across pricing vendors and due diligence reviews of vendors.

Non-Agency Residential Mortgage Backed Securities Backed by Sub-prime, Alt-A or Prime Collateral

Sub-prime mortgage lending is the origination of residential mortgage loans to customers with weak credit profiles. Alt-A mortgage lending is the origination of residential mortgage loans to customers who have credit ratings above sub-prime but may not conform to government-sponsored standards. Prime mortgage lending is the origination of residential mortgage loans to customers with good credit profiles. We have exposure to each of these types of loans predominantly through mortgage backed and asset backed securities. The slowdown in the U.S. housing market, combined with relaxed underwriting standards by some originators, has led to higher delinquency and loss rates for some of these investments. Market conditions have increased the likelihood of other-than-temporary impairments for certain non-agency residential mortgage backed securities. As a part of our risk management process, an internal rating system is used in conjunction with market data as the basis of analysis to assess the likelihood that we will not receive all contractual principal and interest payments for these investments. For the investments that are more at risk for impairment, we perform our own assessment of projected cash flows incorporating assumptions about default rates, prepayment speeds and loss severity to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment should be recognized.

Fair Value of Liabilities and Nonperformance Risk

Companies are required to measure the fair value of liabilities at the price that would be received to transfer the liability to a market participant (an exit price). Since there is not a market for our obligations of our variable annuity riders, we consider the assumptions participants in a hypothetical market would make to reflect an exit price. As a result, we adjust the valuation of variable annuity riders by updating certain contractholder assumptions, adding explicit margins to provide for profit, risk and expenses, and adjusting the rates used to discount expected cash flows to reflect a current market estimate of our nonperformance risk. The nonperformance risk adjustment is based on broker quotes for credit default swaps that are adjusted to estimate the risk of our life insurance company subsidiaries not fulfilling these liabilities. Consistent with general market conditions, this estimate resulted in a spread over the LIBOR swap curve as of June 30, 2011. As our estimate of this spread widens or tightens, the liability will decrease or increase. If this nonperformance credit spread moves to a zero spread over the LIBOR swap curve, the reduction to net income would be approximately $71 million, net of DAC and DSIC amortization and income taxes, based on June 30, 2011 credit spreads.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We maintained substantial liquidity during the six months ended June 30, 2011. At June 30, 2011, we had $2.5 billion in cash and cash equivalents compared to $2.8 billion at December 31, 2010. We have additional liquidity available through an unsecured revolving credit facility for up to $500 million that we entered into on September 30, 2010 and which expires in September 2011. Under the terms of the underlying credit agreement, we can increase this facility to $750 million upon satisfaction of certain approval requirements. Available borrowings under this facility are reduced by any outstanding letters of credit. We have had no borrowings under this credit facility and had $1 million of outstanding letters of credit at June 30, 2011.

In March 2010, we issued $750 million of 5.30% senior notes due 2020. A portion of the proceeds was used to retire $340 million of debt that matured in November 2010. On April 30, 2010, we closed on the Columbia Management Acquisition and paid $866 million in the second quarter with cash on hand and assumed liabilities of $30 million. Our subsidiaries, Ameriprise Bank, FSB and RiverSource Life Insurance Company (“RiverSource Life”), are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Des Moines, which provides these subsidiaries with access to collateralized borrowings. As of June 30, 2011, we had no borrowings from the FHLB. Beginning in 2010, we entered into repurchase agreements to reduce reinvestment risk from higher levels of expected annuity net cash flows. Repurchase agreements allow us to receive cash to reinvest in longer-duration assets, while paying back the short-term debt with cash flows generated by the fixed income portfolio. The balance of repurchase agreements at June 30, 2011 was $505 million, which is collateralized with agency residential mortgage backed securities and commercial mortgage backed securities from our investment portfolio. We believe cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances and our availability of revolver borrowings will be sufficient to fund our operating liquidity needs.

Dividends from Subsidiaries

Ameriprise Financial is primarily a parent holding company for the operations carried out by our wholly owned subsidiaries. Because of our holding company structure, our ability to meet our cash requirements, including the payment of dividends on our common stock, substantially depends upon the receipt of dividends or return of capital from our subsidiaries, particularly our life insurance subsidiary, RiverSource Life, our face-amount certificate subsidiary, Ameriprise Certificate Company (“ACC”), AMPF Holding Corporation, which is the parent company of our retail introducing broker-dealer subsidiary, Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc. (“AFSI”) and our clearing broker-dealer subsidiary, American Enterprise Investment Services, Inc. (“AEIS”), our Auto and Home insurance subsidiary, IDS Property Casualty Insurance Company (“IDS Property Casualty”), doing business as Ameriprise Auto & Home Insurance, our transfer agent subsidiary, Columbia Management Investment Services Corp., our investment advisory company, Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC, and Threadneedle. The payment of dividends by many of our subsidiaries is restricted and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to regulatory capital requirements.

(1) Actual capital is determined on a statutory basis.

(2) Regulatory capital requirement is based on the statutory risk-based filing.

(3) Regulatory capital requirement is based on the applicable regulatory requirement, calculated as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010

(4) Actual capital is determined on an adjusted GAAP basis.

(5) ACC is required to hold capital in compliance with the Minnesota Department of Commerce and SEC capital requirements.

(6) Actual capital and regulatory capital requirements are determined in accordance with U.K. regulatory legislation. The actual capital and the regulatory capital requirements at June 30, 2011 represent management’s assessment at March 31, 2011 of the risk based requirements, as specified by FSA regulations and submitted to the FSA in June 2011.

(7) Ameriprise Bank is required to hold capital in compliance with the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) regulations and policies, which currently require a Tier 1 (core) capital ratio of not less than 7.5%. Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the responsibility for the ongoing examination, supervision, and regulation of federal savings associations, including Ameriprise Bank, transferred from the OTS to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) effective July 21, 2011. The primary regulatory reporting requirements under the OCC are expected to become effective during the period ending March 31, 2012.

In addition to the particular regulations restricting dividend payments and establishing subsidiary capitalization requirements, we take into account the overall health of the business, capital levels and risk management considerations in determining a dividend strategy for payments to our company from our subsidiaries, and in deciding to use cash to make capital contributions to our subsidiaries.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the parent holding company received cash dividends or a return of capital from its subsidiaries of $841 million (including $600 million from RiverSource Life) and contributed cash to its subsidiaries of $87 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the parent holding company received cash dividends or a return of capital from its subsidiaries of $590 million (including $425 million from RiverSource Life) and contributed cash to its subsidiaries of $20 million.

Dividends Paid to Shareholders and Share Repurchases

We paid regular quarterly cash dividends to our shareholders totaling $103 million and $91 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. On July 26, 2011, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.23 per common share. The dividend will be paid on August 19, 2011 to our shareholders of record at the close of business on August 5, 2011.

On May 11, 2010, we announced that our board of directors authorized an expenditure of up to $1.5 billion for the repurchase of shares of our common stock through the date of our 2012 annual shareholders meeting. On June 15, 2011, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized an additional expenditure of up to $2.0 billion for the repurchase of shares of our common stock through June 28, 2013. We intend to fund share repurchases through existing working capital, future earnings and other customary financing methods. The share repurchase program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares, and depending on market conditions and other factors, these purchases may be commenced or suspended at

any time without prior notice. Acquisitions under the share repurchase program may be made in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions or block trades or other means. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we repurchased a total of 12.5 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $60.74 per share. As of June 30, 2011, we had $2.2 billion remaining under our share repurchase authorizations.

Cash Flows

Cash flows of CIEs are reflected in our cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, investing activities and financing activities. Cash held by CIEs is not available for general use by Ameriprise Financial, nor is Ameriprise Financial cash available for general use by its CIEs. As such, the operating, investing and financing cash flows of the CIEs have no impact to the change in cash and cash equivalents.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased $779 million to $619 million compared to $1.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Net cash provided by operating activities in the first half of 2011 included a negative impact of $162 million related to CIEs compared to a positive impact of $179 million in the prior year period. In the first half of 2011, operating cash increased $61 million due to an increase in net cash collateral held related to derivative instruments compared to an increase of $533 million in the prior year period. Income taxes paid increased $170 million in the first half of 2011 compared to the prior year period. Net cash provided by operating activities in the first half of 2011 included an increase in cash generated from higher asset-based fee revenue, partially offset by higher payments for distribution expenses.

Investing Activities

Our investing activities primarily relate to our Available-for-Sale investment portfolio. Further, this activity is significantly affected by the net flows of our investment certificate, fixed annuity and universal life products reflected in financing activities.

Net cash used in investing activities was $557 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $189 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Cash used to purchase Available-for-Sale securities increased $598 million compared to the prior year period and cash proceeds from sales and maturities, sinking fund payments and calls of Available-for-Sale securities decreased $727 million compared to the prior year period. We paid cash of $866 million for the Columbia Management Acquisition in the second quarter of 2010.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $374 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $467 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Net cash outflows related to policyholder and contractholder account values were $145 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $1.1 billion for the prior year period. Net cash outflows related to policyholder and contractholder account values in the prior year period included net transfers to separate accounts of $1.3 billion primarily due to the implementation of changes to the Portfolio Navigator program. Cash outflows related to investment certificates and banking time deposits decreased $303 million due to lower maturities, withdrawals and cash surrenders compared to the prior year period. Cash provided by other banking deposits increased $401 million compared to the prior year period.

Net cash inflows related to changes in repurchase agreements decreased $376 million compared to the prior year period. Cash received due to issuance of debt, net of issuance costs, was $744 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Cash used for the repurchase of common stock increased $589 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year period.
