B. Description of Advisory Services.
We provide investment management and advisory services through single investor individually managed
accounts and single investor and commingled insurance company separate accounts offered by our
insurance company affiliates and other investment vehicles for which we act as investment manager or
sub-adviser (our “Clients”). Our Clients generally co-invest with the general accounts of PGIM’s insurance
company affiliates (the “General Account”) and accounts of other Prudential Financial subsidiaries
(collectively with the General Account, the “Affiliated Accounts”) as well as other unaffiliated institutional
investors.
PPPI’s president, who is also a Managing Director of PPC, serves as the portfolio manager
for our Clients
(the “Portfolio Manager”). PPPI and PPC have distinct roles in managing PPPI’s Clients’ Private
Investments. PPPI negotiates and executes our investment management agreements and has management
responsibility for the portfolios and their performance relative to the benchmarks. PPPI’s activities include

objectives and align portfolio constraints with the Client’s investment guidelines. PPPI provides Client
reporting, including attribution analysis and market conditions, and handles the day to day contact with
investors. PPC’s investment staff makes the individual investment decisions and handles the day-to-day
investment-related aspects of our Clients’ Private Investments. Please refer to Item 13 below for further
details regarding our oversight of our Client accounts.
C. Availability of Customized Services for Individual Clients.
We offer customized portfolio constraints and reporting. We work closely with PPC to assess the
performance of the Private Investments in our Clients’ accounts, establish tactical asset allocation
objectives and verify that the assets in each account are invested and reinvested in accordance with the
individual investment objectives, guidelines and limits of each account. The investment objectives for each
of the accounts we manage are specified in the individual investment management agreement or separate
account or fund documents. We further tailor our account management through customized private
investment vehicles, including (i) commingled insurance company separate accounts offered by our
insurance company affiliates, (ii) single investor private placement accounts for institutional investors, and
(iii) individually tailored investment vehicles established and structured to meet the unique needs of specific
investors. An insurance company separate account is an investment account that uses pooled money to buy
individual assets. These assets are kept separate from the insurance company's general investments and are
generally not subject to the claims of the insurance company’s creditors.

PPPI’s total discretionary assets under management as of December 31, 2023, were $25,675,900,000. As of
