Business: The TIAA Real Estate Account (“Account”) is an insurance separate account of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (“TIAA”) and was established by resolution of TIAA’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) on February 22, 1995, under the insurance laws of the State of New York, for the purpose of funding variable annuity contracts issued by TIAA. The Account offers individual and group accumulating annuity contracts (with contributions made on a pre-tax or after-tax basis), as well as individual lifetime and term-certain variable payout annuity contracts (including the payment of death benefits to beneficiaries). Investors are entitled to transfer funds to or from the Account, and make withdrawals from the Account on a daily basis, under certain circumstances. Funds invested in the Account for each category of contract are expressed in terms of units, and unit values will fluctuate depending on the Account’s performance.
The investment objective of the Account is to seek favorable long-termtotal returns primarily through the rental income and appreciation of a diversified portfolio of directly held, private real estate investments and real estate-related investments owned by the Account.while offering investors guaranteed, daily liquidity.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus (commonly known as “COVID-19”) and the subsequent global pandemic began significantly impacting the U.S. and global financial markets and economies during the first quarter of 2020. During the second and third quarters of 2020, the Account received multiple requests for rent and loan payment relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; however, the requests were slowed during the fourth quarter of 2020 and no new requests were received in 2021 or during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Requests were generally

comprised of deferrals, with payments postponed for a brief period (i.e., less than six months) and then repaid over the remaining duration of the contract.
As of June 30, 2022, the Account has not had material exposure to rent concessions, tenant defaults, or loan defaults. The duration and extent of COVID-19 over the long-term cannot be reasonably estimated at Fair Value:this time. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Account’s business, results of operations, investments, and cash flows will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict.
Significant Accounting Policy Updates: As further described in Note 11—Senior Notes Payable, the Account reports all investmentsissued $500.0 million of senior notes payable in the second quarter of 2022. Pursuant to the fair value option allowed under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 825, Financial Instruments, the Account's management has elected to report the senior notes payable at fair value, in accordance with the Financialvaluation policies described in Note 1—Organization and Significant Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies. Further in accordance with the adoptionPolicies of the fair value option allowed under ASC 825, Financial Instruments,Account's 2021 Form 10-K.
In the first quarter of 2022, the Account began hedging its foreign currency risk through the use of derivative instruments. The impact of this hedging activity was not material to the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 or the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities at June 30, 2022. Other than the election of Account management, mortgage loans payable are reported at fair value. The FASB has defined 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.
The following is a descriptionaddition of the valuation methodologies usedfollowing accounting policy related to determine the fair value of the Account’s investments and investment related mortgage loans payable.
Valuation of Real Estate Properties—Investments in real estate properties are stated at fair value, as determined in accordance with policies and procedures reviewed by the Investment Committee of the Board and in accordance with the responsibilities of the Board as a whole. Accordingly, the Account does not record depreciation. Determination of fair value involves significant levels of judgment because the actual fair value of real estate can be determined only by negotiation between the parties in a sales transaction.

The Account’s primary objective when valuing its real estate investments will be to produce a valuation that represents a reasonable estimate of the fair value of its investments. Implicit in the Account’s definition of fair value are the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
Buyer and seller are typically motivated;
Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their best interests;
A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
Payment is made in terms of cash or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and
The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.
Property and investment values are affected by, among other things, the availability of capital, occupancy rates, rental rates, and interest and inflation rates. As a result, determining real estate and investment values involves many assumptions. Key inputs and assumptions include rental income and expense amounts, related rental income and expense growth rates, capital expenditures, discount rates and capitalization rates. Valuation techniques include discounted cash flow analysis, prevailing market capitalization rates or multiples applied to earnings from the property, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sale negotiations and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties. Amounts ultimately realized from each investment may vary significantly from the fair value presented.
Real estate properties owned by the Account are initially valued based on an independent third party appraisal, as reviewed by TIAA’s internal appraisal staff and as applicable by the Account’s independent fiduciary at the time of the closing of the purchase. Such initial valuation may result in a potential unrealized gain or loss reflecting the difference between an investment’s fair value (i.e., exit price) and its cost basis (which is inclusive of transaction costs).
Subsequently, each property is appraised each quarter by an independent third party appraiser, reviewed by TIAA’s internal appraisal staff and as applicable the Account’s independent fiduciary. In general, the Account obtains appraisals of its real estate properties spread out throughout the quarter, which is intended to result in appraisal adjustments, and thus, adjustmentsderivative instruments, there were no changes to the valuations of its holdings (to the extent such adjustments are made) that happen regularly throughout each quarter and not on one specific day or month in each period.
Further, management reserves the right to order an appraisal and/or conduct another valuation outside of the normal quarterly process when facts or circumstances at a specific property change. For example, under certain circumstances a valuation adjustment could be made when the account receives a bona fide bid for the sale of a property held within the Account or one of the Account’s joint ventures. Adjustments may be made for events or circumstances indicating an impairment of a tenant’s ability to pay amounts due to the Account under a lease (including due to a bankruptcy filing of that tenant). Alternatively, adjustments may be made to reflect the execution or renewal of aAccount's significant lease. Also, adjustments may be made to reflect factors (suchaccounting policies as sales values for comparable properties or local employment rate) bearing uniquely on a particular region in which the Account holds properties. TIAA’s internal appraisal staff oversees the entire appraisal process, in conjunction with the Account’s independent fiduciary (the independent fiduciary is more fully described in the following paragraph). Any differences in the conclusions of TIAA’s internal appraisal staff and the independent appraiser will be reviewed by the independent fiduciary, which will make a final determination on the matter (which may include ordering a subsequent independent appraisal).Account's 2021 Form 10-K.
Foreign Currency Forwards—The independent fiduciary, RERC, LLC, has been appointed by a special subcommittee of the Investment Committee of the BoardAccount uses foreign currency forward contracts to among other things, oversee the entire appraisal process. The independent fiduciary must approve all independent appraisers used by the Account. All appraisals are performed in accordance with Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practices, the real estate appraisal industry standards created by The Appraisal Foundation. Real estate appraisals are estimates of property values based on a professional’s opinion. Appraisals of properties held outside of the U.S. are performed in accordance with industry standards commonly applied in the applicable jurisdiction. These independent appraisers are always expectedmanage foreign currency exchange rate risk related to be MAI-designated members of the Appraisal Institute (or its European equivalent, Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors) and state certified appraisers from national or regional firms with relevant property type experience and market knowledge. Under the Account’s current procedures, each independent appraisal firm will be rotated off of a particular property at least every three years, although such appraisal firm may perform appraisals of other Account properties subsequent to such rotation.

Also, the independent fiduciary may require additional appraisals if factors or events have occurred that could materially change a property’s value (including those identified previously) and such change is not reflected in the quarterly valuation review, or otherwise to ensure that the Account is valued appropriately. The independent fiduciary must also approve any valuation change of real estate-related assets where a property’s value changed by more than 6% from the most recent independent annual appraisal, or if the value of the Account would change by more than 4% within any calendar quarter or more than 2% since the prior calendar month. When a real estate property is subject to a mortgage, the property is valued independently of the mortgage and the property and mortgage fair values are reported separately (see Valuation of Mortgage Loans Payable). The independent fiduciary reviews and approves all mortgage valuation adjustments before such adjustmentsforeign currency-denominated investments. Foreign currency forward contracts are recorded by the Account. The Account continues to use the revised value for each real estate property and mortgage loan payable to calculate the Account’s daily net asset value until the next valuation review or appraisal.
Valuation of Real Estate Joint Ventures—Real estate joint ventures are stated at the fair value of the Account’s ownership interests of the underlying entities. The Account’s ownership interests are valued based on the fair value of the underlying real estate, any related mortgage loans payable, and other factors, such as ownership percentage, ownership rights, buy/sell agreements, distribution provisions and capital call obligations. Upon the disposition of all real estate investments by an investee entity, the Account will continue to state its equity in the remaining net assets of the investee entity during the wind down period, if any, which occurs prior to the dissolution of the investee entity.
Valuation of Real Estate Limited Partnerships—Limited partnership interests are stated at the fair value of the Account’s ownership in the partnership which are recorded based upon the changes in the net asset values of the limited partnerships as determined from the financial statements of the limited partnerships when received by the Account. Prior to the receipt of the financial statements from the limited partnerships, the Account estimates the value of its interest in good faith and will from time to time seek input from the issuer or the sponsor of the investments. Since market quotations are not readily available, the limited partnership interests are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by management under the direction of the Investment Committee of the Board and in accordance with the responsibilities of the Board as a whole.
Valuation of Marketable Securities—Equity securities listed or traded on any national market or exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of the principal securities market or exchange on which such securities are traded or, if there is no sale, at the mean of the last bid and asked prices on such market or exchange, exclusive of transaction costs.
Debt securities with readily available market quotations, other than money market instruments, are generally valued at the most recent bid price or the equivalent quoted yield for such securities (or those of comparable maturity, quality and type). Debt securities for which market quotations are not readily available, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Investment Committee of the Board and in accordance with the responsibilities of the Board as a whole.
Short-term investments are valued in the same manner as debt securities, as described above.
Money market instruments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
Equity and fixed income securities traded on a foreign exchange or in foreign markets are valued using their closing values under the valuation methods generally accepted in the country where traded, as of the valuation date. This value is converted to U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the valuation day. Under certain circumstances (for example, if there are significant movements in the U.S. markets and there is an expectation the securities traded on foreign markets will adjust based on such movements when the foreign markets open the next day), the Account may adjust the value of equity or fixed income securities that trade on a foreign exchange or market after the foreign exchange or market has closed.
Valuation of Loans Receivable (i.e., the Account as a creditor)—Loans receivable are stated at fair value and are initially valued at the face amount of the loan funding. Subsequently, loans receivable are valued at least quarterly by TIAA’s internal valuation department based on market factors, such as market interest rates and spreads for comparable loans, the liquidity for loans of similar characteristics, the performance of the underlying collateral (such as the loan-to-value ratio and the cash flow of the underlying collateral) and the credit quality of the counterparty. The independent

fiduciary reviews and approves all loan receivable valuation adjustments before such adjustments are recorded by the Account. The Account continues to use the revised value for each loan receivable to calculate the Account’s daily net asset value until the next valuation review.
Valuation of Mortgage Loans Payable (i.e., the Account as a debtor)—Mortgage loans payable are stated at fair value. The estimated fair values of mortgage loans payable are basedreflected in Other assets or liabilities on the amount at which the liability could be transferred to a third party exclusiveConsolidated Statements of transaction costs. Mortgage loans payable are valued internally by TIAA’s internal valuation department, as reviewed by the Account’s independent fiduciary, at least quarterly based on market factors, such as market interest rates and spreads for comparable loans, the performance of the underlying collateral (such as the loan-to-value ratio and the cash flow of the underlying collateral), the liquidity for mortgage loans of similar characteristics, the maturity date of the loan, the credit quality of the Account and the return demands of the market.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation: Portfolio investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars atRecent Accounting Pronouncements: In March 2020, the exchange rates prevailing at the endFinancial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the period. Purchases and salesEffects of securities, income receipts and expense payments made in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailingReference Rate Reform on the respective dates of the transactions. The effect of any changes in foreign currency exchange rates on portfolio investments and mortgage loans payable are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on real estate properties and mortgage loans payable. Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions include disposition of foreign currencies, and currency gains and losses between the accrual and receipt dates of portfolio investment income and between the trade and settlement dates of portfolio investment transactions.
Accumulation and Annuity Funds: The accumulation fund represents the net assets attributable to participants in the accumulation phase of their investmentFinancial Reporting (“Accumulation Fund”ASU 2020-04”). The annuity fund representsguidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference the net assets attributableLondon Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The expedients and exceptions are effective for the period from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management does not expect the guidance to materially impact the Account.
Note 2—Related Party Transactions
Investment management, administrative and distribution services are provided to the participants currently receiving annuity payments (“Annuity Fund”). The net increaseAccount at cost by TIAA or decrease in net assets from investment operations is apportioned between the funds based upon their relative daily net asset values. Once an Account participant begins receiving lifetime annuity income benefits, payment levels cannot be reduced as a resultcertain affiliates of the Account’s actual mortality experience. In addition, the contracts pursuant to which the Account is offeredTIAA. Services provided at cost are required to stipulate the maximum expense charge for all Account level expenses that can be assessed, which is not to exceed 2.5% of average net assets per year. The Account pays a fee to TIAA to assume mortality and expense risks.
Accounting for Investments: The investments held by the Account are accounted for as follows:
Real Estate Properties—Rent from real estate properties consists of all amounts earned under tenant operating leases, including base rent, recoveries of real estate taxes and other expenses and charges for miscellaneous services provided to tenants. Rental income is recognized in accordance with the billing terms of the lease agreements. The Account bears the direct expenses of the real estate properties owned. These expenses include, but are not limited to, fees to local property management companies, property taxes, utilities, maintenance, repairs, insurance, and other operating and administrative costs. An estimate of the net operating income earned from each real estate property is accruedpaid by the Account on a daily basis and such estimatesbased upon projected expenses to be provided to the Account. Payments are adjusted when actual operating resultsperiodically to ensure daily payments are determined.
Real Estate Joint Ventures—The Account has ownership interests in various real estate joint ventures (collectively, the “joint ventures”). The Account records its contributions as increasesclose as possible to its investments in the joint ventures, and distributions from the joint ventures are treated as income within income from real estate joint ventures and limited partnerships in the Account’s consolidated statements of operations. Distributions that are identified as returns of capital are recorded as a reduction toactual expenses incurred. Differences between actual expenses and the cost basis of the investment, whereas distributions identified as capital gains or losses are recorded as realized gains or losses. Income distributions from the joint ventures are recorded based on the Account’s proportional interest of the income distributed by the joint ventures. Income earned but not yet distributed to the Account by the joint ventures is recorded as unrealized gains and losses.
Limited Partnerships—The Account has ownership interests in various private real estate funds (primarily limited partnerships) and a private real estate investment trust (collectively, the “limited partnerships”). The Account records its contributions as increases to the investments, and distributions from the investments are treated as income within

income from real estate joint ventures and limited partnerships in the Account’s consolidated statements of operations. Distributions that are identified as returns of capital are recorded as a reduction to the cost basis of the investment, whereas distributions identified as capital gains or losses are recorded as realized gains or losses. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded based upon the changes in the net asset values of the limited partnerships as determined from the financial statements of the limited partnerships when received by the Account. Prior to the receipt of the financial statements from the limited partnerships, the Account estimates the value of its interest in good faith and will from time to time seek input from the issuer or the sponsor of the investments. Changes in value based on such estimates are recordedamounts paid by the Account as unrealized gainsare reconciled and losses.
Marketable Securities—Transactions in marketable securities are accounted for as of the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Interest income is recorded as earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date within dividend income. Dividends that are identified as returns of capital are recorded as a reduction to the cost basis of the investment, whereas dividends identified as capital gains or losses are recorded as realized gains or losses. Realized gains and losses on securities transactions are accounted for on the specific identification method.
Loans Receivable—The Account has ownership interests in loans receivable. Loans receivable are stated at fair value and are initially valued at the face amount of the loan funding. Subsequently, loans receivable are valued at least quarterly by TIAA’s internal valuation department with changes in fair value flowing through unrealized gain (loss). Interest income from loans receivable is recognized using the effective interest method over the expected life of the loan. All loans receivable held to date were originated directly by the Account.
Realized and Unrealized Gains and Losses—Realized gains and losses are recorded at the time an investment is sold or a distribution is received in relation to an investment sale from a joint venture or limited partnership. Real estate transactions are accounted for as of the date on which the purchase or sale transactions for the real estate properties close (settlement date). The Account recognizes a realized gain on the sale of a real estate property to the extent that the contract sales price exceeds the cost-to-date of the property being sold. A realized loss occurs when the cost-to-date exceeds the sales price.
Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as the fair values of the Account’s investments are adjusted and as discussed within the Real Estate Joint Ventures and Limited Partnerships sections above.
Net Assets—The Account’s net assets as of the close of each valuation day are valued by taking the sum of:
the value of the Account’s cash; cash equivalents, and short-term and other debt instruments;
the value of the Account’s other securities and other non-real estate assets;
the value of the individual real properties (based on the most recent valuation of that property) and other real estate-related investments owned by the Account;
an estimate of the net operating income accrued by the Account from its properties, other real estate-related investments and non-real estate-related investments (including short-term marketable securities) since the end of the prior valuation day; and
actual net operating income earned from the Account’s properties, other real estate-related investments and non-real estate-related investments (but only to the extent any such item of income differs from the estimated income accrued for on such investments),
and then reducing the sum by liabilities held within the Account, including the daily investment management fee, administration and distribution fees, mortality and expense fees, and the liquidity guarantee fee, and certain other expenses attributable to operating the Account. Daily estimates of net operating income are adjusted to reflect actual net operating income on a monthly basis, at which time such adjustments (if any) are reflected in the Account’s unit value.
After the end of every quarter, the Account reconciles the amount of expenses deducted from the Account (which is established in order to approximate the costs that the Account will incur) with the expenses the Account actually incurred. If there is a difference, the Account adds it to or deducts it from the Account in equal daily installments over the remaining days of the following quarter. Material differences may be repaid in the current calendar quarter. The Account’s at cost deductions are based on projections of Account assets and overall expenses, and the size of any

adjusting payments will be directly affected by the difference between management’s projections and the Account’s actual assets or expenses.
Income from Securities Lending: The Account may lend securities to qualified borrowers to generate additional income. When loaning securities, the Account retains the benefits of owning the securities, including the economic equivalent of dividends or interest generated by the securities. Cash collateral received for securities on loan is maintained exclusively in an interest-bearing deposit account. All income generated by the securities lending program is reflected within interest income on the consolidated statements of operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents are balances held by the Account in bank deposit accounts which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Account’s management monitors these balances to mitigate the exposure of risk due to concentration and has not experienced any losses from such concentration.
Other Assets and Other Liabilities: Other assets and other liabilities consist of operating assets and liabilities utilized and held at each individual real estate property investment. Other assets consist of, among other items, cash, tenant receivables and prepaid expenses; whereas other liabilities primarily consist of security deposits. Other assets also include cash collateral held for securities on loan.
Federal Income Taxes: Based on provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, Section 817, the Account is taxed as a segregated asset account of TIAA and as such, the Account incurs no material federal income tax attributable to the net investment activity of the Account. The Account’s federal income tax return is generally subject to examination for a period of three years after it is filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional period of time depending on the jurisdiction. Management has analyzed the Account’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Account’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Restricted Cash: The Account held $41.8 million and $45.8 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, in escrow accounts for security deposits, as required by certain states, as well as property taxes, insurance, and various other property related matters as required by certain creditors related to outstanding mortgage loans payable collateralized by certain real estate investments. These amounts are recorded within other assets on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. See Note 6—Mortgage Loans Payable for additional information regarding the Account’s outstanding mortgage loans payable.
Changes in Net Assets: Premiums include premiums paid by existing accumulation unit holders in the Account and transfers into the Account. Withdrawals and death benefits include withdrawals out of the Account which include transfers out of the Account and required minimum distributions.
Due to/from Investment Manager: Due to/from investment manager represents amounts that are to be paid or received by TIAA on behalf of the Account. Amounts generally are paid or received by the Account within one or two business days and no interest is contractually charged on these amounts.
New Accounting Pronouncements: In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers(“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes all existing revenue recognition guidance and establishes a five-step model to measure and recognize revenue. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and the Account plans to adopt the new revenue guidance as of January 1, 2018. The Account has completed its initial scoping for the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has determined that a limited number of asset management agreements will be in the scope of the new guidance. However, the revenue recognition patterns related to the services performed under the asset management agreements are not expected to be significantly different from the revenue recognition pattern under existing GAAP. For the adoption of ASU 2014-09, the Account is planning to utilize the modified retrospective adoption approach. Management is currently in the process of evaluating the final impact of the new standard.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-1 Financial Instruments (Topic 825)—Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-1”). This ASU amends, among other items, certain aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. These amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15,

2017. Management is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2016-1 on the Account’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-2 Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-2”) which will supersede Topic 840, Leases. This ASU applies to all entities that enter into a lease. Lessees will be required to report assets and liabilities that arise from leases. Lessor accounting is expected to remain unchanged except in certain circumstances. This ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including all interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2016-2 on the Account’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 clarifies how to present cash receipts and cash payments for certain activity in the Statement of Cash Flows. These amendments are effective for public business entities within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years and should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Management is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2016-15 on the Account's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In November 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash ("ASU 2016-18"). The statement of cash flows should present beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts that include cash and restricted cash. Transfers between cash and restricted cash will no longer be presented as operating, investing, or financing activities within the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 is effective for annual financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Management is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2016-18 on the Account's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets. The amendments in ASU 2017-05 clarify the scope and application of ASC 610-20 on the sale or transfer of nonfinancial assets and in substance nonfinancial assets to noncustomers, including partial sales. ASU 2017-05 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The amendments may be either retrospectively applied to each period presented within the financial statements or by a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings or net assets as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Management is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2017-05 on the Account’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Investment advisorymanagement services for the Account are provided by TIAA officers, under the direction and control of the Board, pursuant to investment management procedures adopted by TIAA for the Account. TIAA’s investment management decisions for the Account are subject to review by the Account’s independent fiduciary. TIAA also provides various portfolio accounting and related services for the Account.
The Account is a party to the Distribution Agreement for the Contracts Funded by the TIAA Real Estate Account (the “Distribution Agreement”), dated January 1, 2008, by and among TIAA, for itself and on behalf of the Account, and TIAA-CREF Individual and Institutional Services, LLC (“Services”),. Services is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of TIAA, and is registered with the SEC as a broker-dealer and a registered broker-dealerinvestment adviser and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, Services performs distribution services for the Account which include, among other things, (i) distributingdistribution of annuity contracts issued by TIAA and funded by the Account, (ii) advising existing annuity contract owners in connection with their accumulations and (iii) helping employers implement and manage retirement plans. In addition, TIAA performs administrative functions for the Account, which include, among other things, (i) maintaining accounting

records and performing accounting services, (ii) receiving and allocating premiums, (iii) calculating and making annuity payments, (iv) processing withdrawal requests, (v) providing regulatory compliance and reporting services, (vi) maintaining the Account’s records of contract ownership and (vii) otherwise assisting generally in all aspects of the Account’s operations. Both distribution services (pursuant to the Distribution Agreement) and administrative services are provided to the Account by Services and TIAA, as applicable, on an at cost basis.
The Distribution Agreement is terminable by either party upon 60 days written notice and terminates automatically upon any assignment thereof.

In addition to providing the services described above, TIAA charges the Account fees to bear certain mortality and expense risks and risks with providing the liquidity guarantee. These fees are charged as a percentage of the net assets of the Account. Rates for these fees are established annually.
Once an Account participant begins receiving lifetime annuity income benefits, payment levels cannot be reduced as a result of the Account’s actual mortality experience. As such, mortality and expense risk are contractual charges for TIAA’s assumption of this risk.
TIAA and Services provide investment management, administrative and distribution services at cost. TIAA and Services receive payments fromprovides the Account on a daily basis according to formulas established each year and adjusted periodically with the objective of keeping the payments as close as possible to the Account’s expenses actually incurred. Any differences between actual expenses and the amounts paid by the Account are adjusted quarterly.
TIAA also provides a liquidity guarantee toenabling the Account for a fee, to ensure that sufficienthave funds are available to meet participantcontract owner redemption, transfer or cash withdrawal requests. The liquidity guarantee is required by the New York State Department of Financial Services and is subject to a prohibited transaction exemption that the Account received in 1996 (96-76) from the U.S. Department of Labor (the “PTE 96-76”). The Account pays TIAA for the risk associated with providing the liquidity guarantee through a daily deduction from the Account’s net assets. Whether the liquidity guarantee is exercised is based on the cash level of the Account from time to time, as well as recent contract owner withdrawal activity and the Account’s expected working capital, debt service and cash needs, and subject to the oversight of the independent fiduciary. If the Account cannot fund contract owner withdrawal or redemption requests in the event thatfrom the Account’s own cash flowsflow and liquid investments, are insufficient toTIAA will fund such requests. TIAA ensures sufficient funds are available for such transfer and withdrawal requeststhem by purchasing accumulation units issued by the Account (accumulation units that are purchased by TIAA are generally referred to as “liquidity units”). TIAA guarantees that contract owners can redeem their accumulation units at the accumulation unit value next determined after their transfer or cash withdrawal request is received in good order. Liquidity units owned by TIAA are valued in the same manner as accumulation units owned by the Account’s contract owners. The independent fiduciary, which has the right to adjust the percentage of total accumulation units that TIAA’s ownership should not exceed (the “trigger point”), has established the trigger point at 45% of the Account.outstanding accumulation units.
To the extent TIAA owns accumulation units issued pursuant to the liquidity guarantee, the independent fiduciary monitors and oversees, among other things, TIAA’s ownership interest in the Account and may require TIAA to eventually redeem some of its units, particularly when the Account has un-invested cash or liquid investments available. TIAA also receives a fee for assuming certain mortality and expense risks.

Note 3—CreditConcentrations of Risk Concentrations
Concentrations of credit risk may arise when a number of properties or tenants are located in a similar geographic region such that the economic conditions of that region could impact tenants’ obligations to meet their contractual obligations or cause the values of individual properties to decline. TheAdditionally, concentrations of risk may arise if any one tenant comprises a significant amount of the Account's rent, or if tenants are concentrated in a particular industry.
As of June 30, 2022, the Account hashad no significant concentrations of tenants as no single tenant hashad annual contract rent that makesmade up more than 3%4% of the rental income of the Account. Moreover, the Account's tenants have no notable concentration present in any one industry.
The Account’s wholly-owned real estate investments and investments in joint ventureventures are primarily located in the United States. The following table represents the diversification of the Account’s portfolio by region and property type as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017:2022:

Note 4—Leases
The Account’s wholly-owned real estate properties are leased to tenants under operating lease agreements which expire on various dates through 2051. Rental income is recognized in accordance with the billing terms of the lease agreements. The leases do not have material variable payments, material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Certain leases have the option to extend or terminate at the tenant's discretion, with termination options resulting in additional fees due to the Account. Aggregate minimum annual rentals for wholly-owned real estate investments owned by the Account through the non-cancelable lease term, excluding short-term residential leases, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows (in millions):

Certain leases provide for additional rental amounts based upon the recovery of actual operating expenses in excess of specified base amounts, sales volume or contractual increases as defined in the lease agreement. These contractual contingent rentals are not included in the table above.
The Account has ground leases for which the Account is the lessee. The leases do not contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The fair value of right-of-use assets and leases liabilities related to ground leases are reflected on the balance sheet within other assets and other liabilities, respectively.

In April 2020, the FASB staff released guidance focused on treatment of concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the application of lease modification guidance in ASC 842, “Leases.” The guidance provides a practical expedient to forgo the associated reassessments required by ASC 842 when changes to a lease result in similar or lower future consideration. There was no material exposure to rent concessions or lease defaults for tenants impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Note 5—Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Valuation Hierarchy: The Account’s fair value measurements are grouped categorically into three levels, as defined by the FASB. The levels are defined as follows:
•Level 1—Valuations using unadjusted1 fair value inputs are quoted prices for assets tradedidentical items in active, liquid and visible markets such as stocks listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Active markets are defined as having the following characteristics for the measured asset or liability: (i) many transactions, (ii) current prices, (iii) price quotes not varying substantially among market makers, (iv) narrow bid/ask spreads and (v) most information regarding the issuer is publicly available. Level 1 assets held by the Account are generally marketable equity securities.stock exchanges.
Level 2—Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active, dealer or broker markets. Fair values are primarily obtained from third party pricing services for identical or comparable assets or liabilities. •Level 2 inputs for fair value measurements are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable information for similar items in active or inactive markets, and appropriately consider counterparty creditworthiness in the valuations.
•Level 3 fair value inputs reflect our best estimate of inputs and assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability either directly or indirectly. Level 2at the measurement date. The inputs include:
a.Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
b.Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (that is, markets in which there are few transactions for the asset (or liability), the prices are not current, price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers (for example, some brokered markets), or in which little information is released publicly);
c.Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable within the market for the asset (or liability) (for example, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, and default rates that are observable at commonly quoted intervals); and
d.Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (for example, market-corroborated inputs).
Examples of securities which may be held by the Account and included in Level 2 include certificates of deposit, commercial paper, government agency notes, variable notes, United States Treasury securities, and debt securities.
Level 3—Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, including pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and are not based on market exchange, dealer, or broker-traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections that are not observableunobservable in the market and require significant professional judgment in determiningto the fair value assigned to such assetsvaluation estimate.
An asset or liabilities. Examples of Level 3 assets and liabilities which may be held by the Account from time to time include investments in real estate, investments in joint ventures, and loans receivable and payable.
An investment’sliability's categorization within the valuation hierarchy described above is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Account’s limited partnershipReal estate fund investments are excluded from the valuation hierarchy, as these investments are fair valued using thetheir net asset value per share as a practical expedient which excludes the investmentssince market quotations or values from the valuation hierarchy.
The Account’s determination of fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If listed prices or quotesindependent pricing services are not available, fair value is based upon vendor-provided, evaluated prices or internally developed models that primarily use market-based or independently sourced market data, including interest rate yield curves, market spreads,readily available. See Note 1—Organization and currency rates. Valuation adjustments will be made to reflect changes in credit quality, counterparty’s creditworthiness,Significant Accounting Policies of the Account’s creditworthiness, liquidity, and other observable and unobservable inputs that are applied consistently over time.
The methods described above are considered to produce fair values that represent a good faith estimate of what an unaffiliated buyer in the marketplace would pay to purchase the asset or would receive to transfer the liability. Since fair value calculations involve significant professional judgment in the application of both observable and unobservable attributes, actual realizable values or future fair values may differ from amounts reported. Furthermore, while the Account believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants,Account's 2021 Form 10-K for further discussion regarding the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determinea practical expedient for the fair valuevaluation of certain financial instruments, while reasonable, could result in different estimates of fair value at the reporting date. As discussed in Note 1—Organization and Significant

Accounting Policies in more detail, the Account generally obtains independent third party appraisals on a quarterly basis; there may be circumstances in the interim in which the true realizable value of a property is not reflected in the Account’s daily net asset value calculation or in the Account’s periodic Consolidated Financial Statements. This disparity may be more apparent when the commercial and/or residential real estate markets experience an overall and possibly dramatic decline (or increase) in property values in a relatively short period of time between appraisals.funds.

Note 6—Mortgage 7—Investments in Real Estate Funds
The Account has ownership interests in real estate funds (each a “Fund”, and collectively the “Funds”). The Funds are set up as limited partnerships or entities similar to a limited partnership, and as such, meet the definition of a VIE as the limited partners collectively lack the power, through voting or similar rights, to direct the activities of the Fund that most significantly impact the Fund's economic performance. Management has determined that the Account is not the primary beneficiary for any of the Funds, as the Account lacks the power to direct the activities of each Fund that most significantly impact the respective Fund's economic performance, and the Account further lacks substantive kick-out rights to remove the entity with these powers. Refer to Note 1—Organization and Significant Accounting Policies of the Account's 2021 Form 10-K for a description of the methodology used to determine the primary beneficiary of a VIE.
No financial support (such as loans or financial guarantees) was provided to the Funds during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Account is contractually obligated to make additional capital contributions in certain Funds in future years. These commitments are included in the maximum exposure to loss presented below.

(1) Includes loans receivable with related parties.
The Account monitors the risk profile of the loan receivable portfolio with the assistance of a third-party rating service that models the loans and assigns risk ratings based on inputs such as loan-to-value ratios, yields, credit quality of the borrowers, property types of the collateral, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition of the collateral, and the underlying structure of the loans. Ratings for loans are updated monthly. Assigned ratings can range from AAA to C, with an AAA designation representing debt with the lowest level of credit risk and C representing a greater risk of default or principal loss. Loans that are more than 90 days past due are classified as delinquent and assigned a D rating. Mezzanine debt in good health is typically reflective of a risk rating in the B range (e.g., BBB, BB, or B), as these ratings reflect borrowers' having adequate financial resources to service their financial commitments, but also acknowledging that adverse economic conditions, should they occur, would likely impede on a borrowers' ability to pay.
All borrowers of loans rated C or higher are current as of June 30, 2022.

Note 10—Line of Credit
The Account has a senior revolving unsecured line of credit with a syndicate of third-party bank lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Credit Agreement”) with a maximum total commitment of $500.0 million. Draws against the Credit Agreement can take the form of Eurodollar Loans or Alternate Base Rate Loans (“ABR Loans”). Eurodollar Loans and ABR Loans require a minimum funding of $5.0 million.
Eurodollar Loans are issued for a term of twelve months or less and bear interest during the period (“Interest Period”) at a rate equal to the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“Adjusted LIBOR”) plus a spread (the “Eurodollar Applicable Rate”), with the spread dependent upon the leverage ratio of the Account. Adjusted LIBOR is calculated by multiplying the Statutory Reserve Rate, as determined by the Federal Reserve Board for Eurodollar liabilities, by LIBOR, as determined by the Intercontinental Exchange on the date of issuance that corresponds to the length of the Interest Period. The Account may prepay Eurodollar Loans at any time during the life of the loan without penalty. The Account is limited to 5 active Eurodollar Loans on the Credit Agreement; however, the Account may retire and initiate new Eurodollar Loans without restriction so long as the total number of loans in active status does not exceed the limit.
ABR Loans are issued for a specific length of time and bear interest at a rate equal to the highest rate among the following calculations plus a spread (the "ABR Applicable Rate"), with the spread dependent on the leverage ratio of the Account: (i) the Prime Rate on the date of issuance, with the Prime Rate being defined as the rate of interest last quoted by the Wall Street Journal as the Prime Rate; (ii) the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“NYFRB”) rate as provided by the NYFRB on the date of issuance plus 0.5%; or (iii) the Adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.0%. The Account may prepay ABR Loans at any time during the life of the loan without penalty.
As of June 30, 2022, the Account was in compliance with all covenants required by the Credit Agreement.

The Account invests primarily in high-quality, core real estate in order to meet its investment objective of obtaining favorable long-term returns through rental income and the appreciation of its real estate holdings.
Economic Overview and Outlook
Key U.S. economic indicators and their near-term outlook are summarized in the table below. According to the “advance estimate” from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) increased at a 3.0% annual rate during third quarter as compared to 3.1% during the second quarter. Inventory accumulation, trade, and consumer spending contributed to growth, although the pace of spending moderated. Several major hurricanes made landfall in the U.S. during the quarter, causing significant damage. The overall impact on third quarter GDP was not quantified, but the hurricanes likely caused some disruption to economic production in several states. The storms ended an 83 month streak of job gains when employment fell by 33,000 jobs in September, most of which was concentrated in the leisure and hospitality sector. As a result, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the pace of job growth moderated during the third quarter when 274,000 jobs were added as compared to 562,000 during second quarter. The unemployment rate decreased to end the third quarter at 4.2%.

Economic patterns have been abnormal for the past two years but are slowly reverting to pre-pandemic form. Countries and sectors are normalizing at different rates, creating market turbulence and contradicting economic forecasts. Significant moderation in inflation is expected over the next 18 months as financial conditions tighten and economic growth slows in the world's largest economies; however, a mild recession is certainly not out of the question. U.S. GDP is projected to have increased by 1% quarter-over-quarter (seasonally adjusted annualized rate) in the second quarter of 2022 and 2.2% year-over-year. The economy added over one million jobs in the second quarter of 2022, according to the nonfarm payroll measurement from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, bringing the unemployment rate at 1.0%down to 1.25% “in view3.6% as of realizedJune 2022.
Consumer spending is supporting growth in the developed world, with many countries still benefiting from pandemic-era pent-up demand and expectedexcess savings. Jobs have returned quickly, and wages are rising about as fast as prices, yet consumers have never reported feeling more pessimistic. Sentiment surveys register lower readings today than even amid the 2008 financial crisis. At the same time, however, consumer spending growth is keeping pace with inflation. Rising net worth and job security will be far more significant predictors of consumer behavior than general sentiment.
Geopolitical strife, such as the continuing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, has contributed to persistent energy and food cost increases. This affects every consumer, but higher-income households and wealthier countries are relatively insulated from the direct consequences. Some emerging markets may soon be susceptible to acute food shortages and even social unrest unless supplies replenish and price increases relent. The U.S. will have a narrower base of consumption growth this year as fewer households meaningfully increase their real spending.
Every economic data point is being refracted through the prism of how central banks will respond to higher inflation. This puts the labor market, conditionsa leading inflation indicator because wages play a significant role in determining prices, at the center of our attention for the balance of 2022. News of job or pay freezes sounds negative, but they are necessary to slow the rapid pace of aggregate demand growth, rebalance the economy and inflation”, as indicatedallow policymakers to take their feet off the brakes. While a lot more central bank rate hikes lie ahead, a modest softening in employment data can help ensure that central banks don't wholly halt economic expansion.

The FOMC is widely expected to raise the federal funds rate target range by 25 basis pointsnow stands at 1.50% - 1.75%, and it seems certain to travel higher at the Decembernext meeting. Inflation has not moderated as much as the Fed or the market expected it to over the year's first five months. This is mainly because the ongoing war in Ukraine has increased the prices of goods and services sensitive to food and energy costs, such as gasoline and core services like airfares.
Despite damage endured by recent hurricanesThe Fed and the market recognize that tighter financial conditions are required to dissuade employers from hiring and raising wages, effectively short-circuiting any budding wage-price spiral. Data showing falling job openings and softening wage growth are therefore welcome. The data collected between now and the end of the summer related distortions in September’s economic data, the U.S. economy has demonstrated consistent momentumto job openings, wage growth, and GDPother measures of price inflation, is expected to increase at above-trend rates through next year.

The loss of jobs in September was largely associated with business disruptions from recent hurricanes; and employment growth is expected to resume in the coming months. GDP and employment growth of this magnitude is supportive of ongoing improvement in commercial real estate market conditions.

could be more inflation-resistant and insulated from short-term volatility. Additionally, apartment properties, particularly affordable properties, may outperform due to a decrease in mortgage demand, which will support the rental market. According to Real Capital Analytics, (“RCA”) reported that salesU.S. real estate transaction volumes are up 17% year-to-year as of office,June 2022. Over the past year, apartments and industrial retail,have captured approximately 63% of total U.S. transaction volumes, illustrating the strong investor interest in these two property types.

As of June 30, 2022, the Account's leverage position was 17.2%. This low level of leverage and ability to access financing at attractive rates allows the Account to opportunistically deploy capital during periods of market volatility when other funds may focus on shoring up balance sheets. The Account expects to continue to seek opportunities that improve portfolio diversification throughout 2022 by selling lower productivity assets and acquiring assets with higher growth potential and economic resiliency.

Industrial
The industrial sector saw record-breaking activity in the Seattle-Tacoma total.first half of 2022. The pandemic has accelerated consumers' long-term shift to e-commerce, and this shift has caused demand for industrial space to rise to unprecedented levels. Construction of industrial properties is also at a record high as developers try to keep up with the demand but timing of delivery remains uncertain as supply chain issues are creating challenges.
The national industrial availability rate for the second quarter of 2022 was 3.9%, which is the lowest level ever recorded, as compared to 4.1% during the prior quarter, as reported by CoStar. The average vacancy rate of the industrial properties held by the Account increased from 3.9% in the first quarter of 2022 to 8.0% in the second quarter of 2022. The increase is due to the Account purchasing two newly developed industrial portfolios in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that are currently in their lease-up period.
As of June 30, 2022, the Account's rents from industrial tenants were not materially affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, but the duration of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic remain unknown.

Additionally, if tenants vacate due to lease expirations, redeployment of the vacated space may be challenging in the near term due to unfavorable leasing conditions, though demand for industrial space has been relatively steady throughout the pandemic.

The Account has a $500.0 million unsecured line of credit, accessible as needed to fund the Account's near-term investment objectives, as further described in Note 10—Line of Credit. As of June 30, 2022, the Account's line of credit was fully drawn.
On June 10, 2022, the Account issued $500.0 million of debt securities, as further described in Note 11—Senior Notes Payable.
The Account may from time to time borrow money and assume or obtain a mortgage on a property to make leveraged real estate investments. Also, to meet any short-term cash needs, the Account may obtain a line of credit that may be unsecured and/or contain terms that may require the Account to secure the loan with one or more of its properties.
The Account is authorized to borrow money in accordance with its investment guidelines. Under the Account’s current investment guidelines, the Account’s loan to value ratio (as described below) is to be maintained at or below 30% (measured at the time of incurrence and after giving effect thereto). Such incurrencesincurrence of debt from time to time may include:
•placing new debt on properties;
•refinancing outstanding debt;
•assuming debt on acquired properties or interests in the Account’s properties; and/or
long term extensions of•extending the maturity date of outstanding debt.debt;
In calculating this limit, only the Account’s actual percentage interest in any borrowings is included, and not that percentage interest held by any joint venture partner. Further, the Account may only borrow up to 70% of the then-current value of a property, although construction loans may be for 100% of the costs incurred in developing a property. At the time the Account (or a joint venture in which the Account is a partner) enters into a revolving•an unsecured line of credit, for credit facility or bank loan; or

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, the Account’s loan-to-value ratio ofwas 17.2%. The Account's loan-to-value ratio at any time is based on the outstanding principal amount of debt (inclusive ofto the Account’s proportionate share of debt held within its joint venture investments) toAccount's total gross asset value, (i.e., a “loan to value ratio”) was 15.2%.and excludes leverage, if any, employed by REITs and real estate funds in which the Account invests. The Account intends to maintain its loan to value ratio at or below 30% (this ratio iswill be measured at the time of any debt incurrence and will be assessed after giving effect thereto).thereto. The Account’s total gross asset value, for these purposes, is equal to the total fair value of the Account’s assets (including the fair value of the Account’s interest in joint ventures), with no reduction associated with any indebtedness on such assets. In calculating outstanding indebtedness, we include only the Account’s actual percentage interest in any borrowings on a joint venture investment and not that of any joint venture partner. Also, at the time the Account (or a joint venture in which the Account is a partner) enters into a revolving or other line of credit, management includes only amounts outstanding when calculating outstanding indebtedness.
The Account may borrow up to 70% of the then-current value of a property, although construction loans may be for 100% of costs incurred in developing the property. Except for construction loans, any mortgage loans on a property will be non-recourse to the Account. For this purpose, non-recourse means that if there is a default on a loan in respect to a specific property, the lender will have recourse to (i.e., be able to foreclose on) only the property encumbered (or the joint venture owning the property), or to other specific Account properties that may have been pledged as security for the defaulted loan, but not to any other assets of the Account. Currently, TIAA, on behalf of the Account, maintains a senior revolving unsecured line of credit with a syndicate of third-party bank lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Credit Agreement”). The Account may use the proceeds of borrowings under the Credit Agreement for funding general organizational purposes of the Account in the ordinary course of business, including financing certain real estate portfolio investments. The Account may enter into additional unsecured lines of credit, credit facilities and term bank loans underwritten by one or more third-party lenders. In addition, from time to time, the Account may, if permitted by applicable insurance laws, borrow capital for operating or other needs by offering debt securities
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, there are nofive mortgage obligations, totaling $519.6 million, secured by real estate investments wholly-owned by the Account maturingthat mature within the next twelve months. The Account has sufficient liquidity in the form of cash and cash equivalents and securities to meet its current mortgage obligations.
In times of high net inflow activity, in particular during times of high net participant transfer inflows, management may determine to apply a portion of such cash flows to make prepayments of indebtedness prior to scheduled maturity, which would have the effect of reducing the Account’s loan to value ratio.

Critical Accounting PoliciesEstimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of the Account’s financial condition and results of operations is based on the
Account’s consolidated interim financial statements,Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared by management in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of the Account’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statementsreported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and disclosures. Someexpenses. Management considers the valuation of these estimatesreal estate properties and assumptions require applicationvaluation of difficult, subjective, and/or complex judgments about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believesreal estate joint ventures to be reasonable undercritical accounting estimates because they involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have a material impact on the circumstances, theAccount’s financial condition and results of which formoperations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Account’s real estate holdings, including real estate joint venture, limited partnershipsventures, funds, an operating business and loans receivable, including those with related parties, which, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, represented 80.1% 92.2%of the Account’s total investments, expose the Account to a variety of risks. These risks include, but are not limited to:
•General Real Estate Risk—The risk that the Account’s property values or rental and occupancy rates could go down due to general economic conditions, a weak market for real estate generally and/or in specific locations where the Account may own property, including, among other reasons, as a result of an epidemic, pandemic or other health-related issue in one or more markets where the Account owns property, disruptions in the credit and/or capital markets, or changingchanges in supply and demand for certain types of properties;
•Appraisal Risk—The risk that the sale price of an Account property (i.e.(i.e., the value that would be determined by negotiations between independent parties) might differ substantially from its estimated or appraised value, leading to losses or reduced profits to the Account upon sale;
•Risk Relating to Property Sales—The risk that the Account might not be able to sell a property at a particular time for its full value, particularly in a poor market. This might make it difficult to raise cash quickly and also could lead to Account losses;
•Risks of Borrowing—The risk that interest rate changes may impact Account returns if the Account borrows against a credit facility, takes out a mortgage on a property, buys a property subject to a mortgage or holds a property subject to a mortgage, and hedging against such interest rate changes, if undertaken by the Account, may entail additional costs and be unsuccessful; and
•Foreign Currency Risk—The risk that the value of the Account’s foreign investments, related debt, or rental income could increase or decrease due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates or foreign currency exchange control regulations, and hedging against such currency changes, if undertaken by the Account, may entail additional costs and be unsuccessful.
The Account believes the diversification of its real estate portfolio, both geographically and by sector, along with its quarterly valuation procedure, helps manage the real estate and appraisal risks described above.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017, 19.9%2022, 7.8% of the Account’s total investments were comprised of marketable securities. Marketable securities include high-quality debt instruments (i.e.(i.e., U.S. government agency notes)notes and corporate bond securities) and, when applicable, REIT securities. The consolidated scheduleAccount's Consolidated Statements of investments for the AccountInvestments sets forth the general financial terms of these instruments, along with their fair values, as determined in accordance with procedures described earlier in the Critical Accounting Policies section above and in Note 1—1–Organization and Significant Accounting Policies to the Account’s Consolidated Financial Statements included herewith. As of the dateAccount's 2021 Form 10-K.
During the first quarter of this report,2022, the Account does not invest in derivative financial investments, nor does the Account engage in any hedging activity, although it may do so in selected circumstances in the future.began using currency forward contracts to hedge foreign currency risks.
Risks associated with investments in real estate-related liquid assets (which could include, from time to time, REIT securities and CMBS), and non-real estate-related liquid assets, including financial/credit risk, market volatility risk, interest rate volatility risk and deposit/money market risk.include the following:
•Financial/Credit Risk—The risk, for debt securities, that the issuer will not be able to pay principal and interest when due (and/or declare bankruptcy or be subject to receivership) and, for equity securities such as common or preferred stock, that the issuer’s current earnings will fall or that its overall financial soundness will decline, reducing the security’s value.
•Market Volatility Risk—The risk that the Account’s investments will experience price volatility due to changing conditions in the financial markets regardless of the credit quality or financial condition of the underlying issuer. This risk is particularly acute to the extent the Account holds equity securities, which have experienced significant short-term price volatility over the past year. Also, to the extent the Account holds debt securities, changes in overall interest rates can cause price fluctuations.
•Interest Rate Volatility—The risk that interest rate volatility may affect the Account’s current income from an investment.
•Deposit/Money Market Risk—The risk that, to the extent the Account’s cash held in bank deposit accounts exceeds federally insured limits as to that bank, the Account could experience losses if banks fail. The Account
53

does not believe it has exposure to significant concentration of deposit risk. In addition, there is some risk that investments held in money market accounts can suffer losses.

In addition, to the extent the Account were to hold mortgage-backed securitiesMBS (including commercial mortgage-backed securities)CMBS) these securities are subject to prepayment risk or extension risk (i.e.(i.e., the risk that borrowers will repay the loans earlier or later than anticipated). If the underlying mortgage assets experience faster than anticipated repayments of principal, the Account could fail to recoup some or all of its initial investment in these securities, since the original price paid by the Account was based in part on assumptions regarding the receipt of interest payments. If the underlying mortgage assets are repaid later than anticipated, the Account could lose the opportunity to reinvest the anticipated cash flows at a time when interest rates might be rising. The rate of prepayment depends on a variety of geographic, social and other functions, including prevailing market interest rates and general economic factors. The fair value of these securities is also highly sensitive to changes in interest rates. Note that the potential for appreciation, which could otherwise be expected to result from a decline in interest rates, may be limited by any increased prepayments. These securities may be harder to sell than other securities.
In addition to these risks, real estate equity securities (such as REIT stockssecurities and mortgage-backed securities)MBS) would be subject to many of the same general risks inherent in real estate investing, making mortgage loans and investing in debt securities. For more information on the risks associated with all of the Account’s investments, see Item 1A. Risk Factors, of the Account’s most recent prospectus.Account's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2022, as such risk factors may be updated in Item 1A of this Form 10-Q or in subsequent reports.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
In the normal course of business, the Account may be named, from time to time, as a defendantor may be involved in various legal actions, including arbitration, class actions and other litigation.
The Account establishes an accrual for all litigation and regulatory matters when it believes it is partyprobable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, accruals are adjusted, as appropriate, in light of additional information. The amount of loss ultimately incurred in relation to various claims and routine litigation arising inthose matters may be higher or lower than the ordinary courseamounts accrued for those matters.
As of business. Managementthe date of this report, management of the Account does not believe that the results of any such claims or litigation, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on the Account’s business, financial position or results of operations.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
There have been no material changesIncome from the Account’s risk factorscommercial leases is an important source of our cash flow from operations and is subject to risks related to increases in expenses and inflation.
The Account is exposed to risks related to increases in market lease rates and inflation, as previously reportedincome from leases in the commercial space (i.e., office, industrial and retail) is an important source of the Account’s cash flow from operations. Although most of the Account’s commercial tenant leases have contractual periodic rent escalation clauses, such clauses are not typically tied to the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). These rent escalation clauses typically escalate rent by a set percentage per year or on a cumulative amount over a set number of years during the term of the lease. At lease expiration, a commercial rental property either reverts to then applicable market rental rates or there is typically a contractual provision, if a tenant has the option to do so, where the option rent is escalated by the previous contractual amount or it would set to some market-based rental rate or a set percentage of the market-based rate. Such contractual provisions in the Account’s Annual Reportcommercial leases are designed to mitigate the risk of inflation and unexpected increases in market lease rates; however, such contractual provisions may, if not accurately predicted or structured, fail to adequately protect the Account from the impact of inflation or unexpected increases in market lease rates. If the Account becomes subject to below-market lease rates on Form 10-Ka significant number of its commercial properties, and the Account’s operating and other expenses for such rental properties are increasing faster than anticipated, the year ended December 31, 2016.Account’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or its ability to satisfy debt service obligations could be materially adversely affected.
