for which $92 million of the fees are offset in incentive compensation expense in accordance with the terms of the contractual agreements.
Certain of these incentive fees are subject to positive or negative future adjustment based on cumulative fund performance in relation to specified benchmarks.

Asset management fees increased $88 million mainly from institutional and retail customer assets as a result of increased asset values due to market appreciation and net asset flows.

Expenses, as shown in the table above under “—Operating Results,” increased $170 million, from $1.457 billion in 2006 to $1.627 billion in 2007.

Expenses increased $225 million, from $1.232 billion in 2005 to $1.457 billion in 2006.
The increase in expenses was primarily due to higher performance-based compensation costs resulting from favorable performance in 2006, higher expenses related to proprietary investing activities and incentive compensation related to performance based incentive fees, as discussed above.
Financial Advisory Operating Results The following table sets forth the Financial Advisory segment’s operating results for the periods indicated.
## Table 1 ##
(1) Equity in earnings of operating joint ventures are included in adjusted operating income but excluded from income from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in earnings of operating joint ventures, as they are reflected on a U. S.  GAAP basis on an after-tax basis as a separate line on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
On July 1, 2003, we combined our retail securities brokerage and clearing operations with those of Wachovia Corporation, or Wachovia, and formed Wachovia Securities Financial Holdings, LLC, or Wachovia Securities, a joint venture now headquartered in St.  Louis, Missouri.
As of December 31, 2007, we had a 38% ownership interest in the joint venture, with Wachovia owning the remaining 62%.
As part of the transaction, we retained certain assets and liabilities related to the contributed businesses, including liabilities for certain litigation and regulatory matters.
We account for our ownership of the joint venture under the equity method of accounting.
On October 1, 2007, Wachovia completed the acquisition of A. G.  Edwards, Inc. , or A. G.  Edwards, for $6.8 billion and on January 1, 2008 combined the retail securities brokerage business of A. G.  Edwards with Wachovia Securities.
As discussed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we have elected the “lookback” option under the terms of the agreements relating to the joint venture in connection with the combination of the A. G.  Edwards business with Wachovia Securities.
The “lookback” option permits us to delay for approximately two years following the combination of the A. G.  Edwards business with Wachovia Securities our decision to make or not to make payments to avoid or limit dilution of our ownership interest in the joint venture.
During this “lookback” period, our share in the earnings of the joint venture, as well as our share of the one-time costs associated with the combination, will be based on our diluted ownership level, which is in the process of being determined.
Any payment at the end of the “lookback” period to restore all or part of our ownership interest in the joint venture would be based on the appraised or agreed value of the existing joint venture and the A. G.  Edwards business.
In such event, we would also need to make a true-up payment of one-time costs associated with the combination to reflect the incremental increase in our ownership interest in the joint venture.
Alternatively, we may at the end of the “lookback” period “put” our joint venture interests to Wachovia based on the appraised value of the joint venture, excluding the A. G.  Edwards business, as of the date of the combination of the A. G.  Edwards business with Wachovia Securities.
We also retain our separate right to “put” our joint venture interests to Wachovia at any time after July 1, 2008 based on the appraised value of the joint venture, including the A. G.  Edwards business, determined as if it were a public company and including a control premium such as would apply in the case of a sale of 100% of its common equity.
However, if in connection with the “lookback” option we elect at the end of the “lookback” period to make payments to avoid or limit dilution, we may not exercise this “put” option prior to the first anniversary of the end of the “lookback” period.
Investment Results The following tables set forth the income yield and investment income, excluding realized investment gains (losses), for each major investment category of our general account for the periods indicated.
## Table 2 ##
Year Ended December 31, 2006
## Table 3 ##
(1) Yields are based on quarterly average carrying values except for fixed maturities, equity securities and securities lending activity.
Yields for fixed maturities are based on amortized cost.
Yields for equity securities are based on cost.
Yields for securities lending activity are calculated net of corresponding liabilities and rebate expenses.
Yields exclude investment income on assets other than those included in invested assets of the Financial Services Businesses.
Prior periods yields are presented on a basis consistent with the current period presentation.
(2) Includes investment income of securities brokerage, securities trading, banking operations, real estate and relocation services, and asset management operations.
The net investment income yield on our general account investments after investment expenses, excluding realized investment gains (losses), was 5.43% and 5.38% for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The net investment income yield attributable to the Financial Services Businesses was 5.06% for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 4.99% for the year ended December 31, 2006.
See below for a discussion of the change in the Financial Services Businesses’ yields.
The net investment income yield attributable to the Closed Block Business was 6.41% for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 6.37% for the year ended December 31, 2006.
The increase was primarily due to higher income from investments in joint ventures and limited partnerships, driven by net appreciation of underlying assets and gains from the sale of underlying assets partially offset by lower mortgage loan prepayment income.
