Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	BASIS OF PRESENTATION KW Group's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make their presentation not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring items, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 have been included. The results of operations for these periods are not necessarily indicative of results that might be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2016 . For further information, your attention is directed to the footnote disclosures found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 . Throughout this unaudited interim consolidated financial statements we refer to “KW Group,” which we define as the Company and its subsidiaries that are consolidated in its financial statements under U.S. GAAP (including KWE as defined below). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. We also refer to "KW," “KWH,” “Kennedy Wilson,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” which we define as Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Kennedy Wilson Europe Real Estate Plc (“KWE,” LSE: KWE), a Jersey investment company formed to invest in real estate and real estate-related assets in Europe, closed its initial public offering ("IPO") on the London Stock Exchange during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. KWE is externally managed by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kennedy Wilson incorporated in Jersey pursuant to an investment management agreement. Due to the terms provided in the investment management agreement and Kennedy Wilson's equity ownership interest in KWE, pursuant to the guidance set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Subtopic 810 - Consolidation (“Subtopic 810”), the Company is required to consolidate KWE’s results in its consolidated financial statements. Additionally, the Company invested $145.2 million of cash and contributed $58.3 million of assets acquired by the Company as part of the IPO. KWE completed a follow-on offering during the fourth quarter of 2014 where the Company participated based on its ownership percentage acquiring an additional 4.6 million shares for $75 million . Outside of the IPO and follow-on offering, the Company has acquired an additional 6.9 million ordinary shares for $119.4 million and owned approximately 20.3% of KWE’s total issued share capital as of March 31, 2016 . In addition to its investment in KWE, prior to KWE's formation, the Company (along with its equity partners) directly invested in 17 properties, one loan pool and a servicing platform in Europe which had total assets of $855.8 million included in the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2016 . Kennedy Wilson's total equity in these investments was $412.9 million and the Company's weighted average ownership in these investments was 58% as of March 31, 2016 . In addition, throughout these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, we refer to our “equity partners,” which we define as the non-wholly owned subsidiaries that we consolidate in our financial statements under U.S. GAAP, including KWE, and third-party equity providers. Kennedy Wilson evaluates its relationships with other entities to identify whether they are variable interest entities ("VIEs") as defined in the ASC Subtopic 810-10, as amended by ASU 2015-02, and to assess whether it is the primary beneficiary of such entities. If the determination is made that Kennedy Wilson is the primary beneficiary, then that entity is included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the ASC Subtopic 810-10. The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosure about contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. See comment in Note 4 about the preliminary nature of the estimates used in relation to acquisitions.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements	3 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2016
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS REVENUE RECOGNITION—Performance fees or carried interests are allocated to the general partner, special limited partner or asset manager of our real estate funds and loan pool participations based on the cumulative performance of the funds and loan pools and are subject to preferred return thresholds of the limited partners and participants. At the end of each reporting period, we calculate the performance fee that would be due to the general partner, special limited partner or asset manager's interests for a fund or loan pool, pursuant to the fund agreement or participation agreements, as if the fair value of the underlying investments were realized as of such date, irrespective of whether such amounts have been realized. As the fair value of underlying investments varies between reporting periods, it is necessary to make adjustments to amounts recorded as performance fees to reflect either (a) positive performance resulting in an increase in the performance fee allocated to the general partner or asset manager or (b) negative performance that would cause the amount due to us to be less than the amount previously recognized as revenue, resulting in a negative adjustment to performance fees allocated to the general partner or asset manager. A majority of the performance fees are recognized in investment management revenue, and substantially all of the carried interest is recognized in income from unconsolidated investments in our consolidated statements of operations. Total performance fees recognized from inception through March 31, 2016 that may be reversed in future periods if there is negative fund or loan pool performance totaled $25.3 million . Performance fees recognized during the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015 were $6.4 million and $3.1 million , respectively, and the amounts that have not been received are included in accounts receivable - related parties in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS—The purchase price of acquired properties is recorded to land, buildings and building improvements and intangible lease value (value of above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place lease values, and tenant relationships, if any) based on their respective estimated fair values in accordance with ASC Subtopic 805-10, Business Combinations . Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. The ownership of the other interest holders in consolidated subsidiaries is reflected as noncontrolling interests. The valuations of real estate are based on management estimates of the real estate assets using income and market approaches. The indebtedness securing the real estate is valued, in part, based on third party valuations and management estimates also using an income approach. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS—Noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity (net assets) in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly to the Company. These amounts are reported within equity as a separate component in accordance with ASC Subtopic 810-10, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements . Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, net income (loss), and other comprehensive income (loss) are reported in the consolidated statements of operations at the consolidated amounts and net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests are separately stated. The largest component of noncontrolling interest relates to the Company's investment in KWE, which had a corresponding noncontrolling interest balance of $1.5 billion as of March 31, 2016 . FOREIGN CURRENCIES—The financial statements of KW Group's subsidiaries located outside the United States are measured using the local currency as this is their functional currency. The assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the rates of exchange at the balance sheet date, and income and expenses are translated at the average monthly rate. The foreign currencies include the euro, the British pound sterling, and the Japanese yen. Cumulative translation adjustments, to the extent not included in cumulative net income, are included in the consolidated statement of equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. At March 31, 2016 , approximately 47% of the Company's investment account is invested through our foreign platforms in their local currencies. Investment level debt is generally incurred in local currencies. Fluctuations in foreign exchanges rates may have a significant impact on the results of our operations. In order to manage the effect of these fluctuations, the Company generally hedges its book equity exposure to foreign currencies through currency forward contracts and options. See note 6 for a complete discussion on currency derivative contracts. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES—All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their respective fair values. For derivatives designated in hedging relationships, changes in fair value of cash flow hedges or net investment hedges are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, to the extent the derivative is effective at offsetting the changes in the item being hedged until the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value for fair value hedges are recognized in earnings. Fluctuations in foreign exchanges rates may have a significant impact on the results of our operations. In order to manage the effect of these fluctuations, we generally hedge our book equity exposure to changes in foreign currency rates through currency forward contracts and options. We typically hedge 50% - 100% of book equity exposure against these foreign currencies. INCOME TAXES—Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In accordance with ASC Subtopic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes , the effect of income tax positions is recognized only if those positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS—In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updated ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, a five step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts in an effort to increase consistency and comparability throughout global capital markets and across industries. The model will identify the contract, identify any separate performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price and recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. The new standard will replace most existing revenue recognition in GAAP when it becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. We have not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis ("ASU 2015-02") . ASU 2015-02 was adopted by the KW Group on January 1, 2016. The new standard makes certain changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model, including changes to (1) the identification of variable interests (fees paid to a decision maker or service provider), (2) the variable interest entity characteristics for a limited partnership or similar entity and (3) the primary beneficiary determination. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 did not result in any changes to our conclusions regarding the consolidation of investments under the new standard. We identified several entities, already consolidated under the previous standard but not considered VIEs, which under the new standard, are considered VIEs and will continue to be consolidated. KWE was determined to be a VIE under the new standard as were seven other less significant consolidated investments, all with the same partner and sharing similar legal structures. However because our analysis concludes that we are the primary beneficiary of those entities, they continue to be consolidated. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , to reduce the complexity of financial statement presentation pursuant to which debt issuance costs will be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liabilities as opposed to a deferred charge recognized as an asset. ASU 2015-03 is required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. ASU 2015-03 became effective for KW Group beginning January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. Because the Company's existing operating lease commitments are not material and the accounting for leases by the lessor is substantially unchanged, the Company does not expect the ASU to have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position. The FASB did not issue any other ASUs during the first three months of 2016 that the Company expects to be applicable and have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. RECLASSIFICATIONS—Certain balances included in prior year's financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.

Buildings and building improvements are depreciated on a straight-line method over their estimated lives not to exceed 40 years . Acquired in-place lease values are recorded at their estimated fair value and depreciated over their respective weighted-average lease term which was 8.4 years at March 31, 2016 . Consolidated Acquisitions The purchase of property is recorded to land, buildings, building improvements, and intangible lease value (including the value of above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place lease values, and tenant relationships, if any) based on their respective estimated fair values. The purchase price generally approximates the fair value of the properties as acquisitions are generally transacted with third-party willing sellers. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , KW Group acquired the following consolidated properties: (Dollars in millions) Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation at Acquisition (1) Location Description Land Building Acquired in place lease values (2) Investment debt NCI (3) KWH Shareholders' Equity Western U.S. 108k square feet of commercial property $ 2.6 $ 9.5 $ 0.7 $ 8.0 $ 0.2 $ 4.6 Ireland Two properties totaling 57k square feet (4) 3.9 20.8 2.0 — 21.3 5.4 Spain One development project (4) — 13.8 — — 11.0 2.8 $ 6.5 $ 44.1 $ 2.7 $ 8.0 $ 32.5 $ 12.8 (1) Excludes acquisition expenses and net other assets. The purchase price allocations for properties acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2016 are based on preliminary measurements of fair value that are subject to change. These allocations represent the Company's current best estimates of fair value. (2) Includes above and below market leases in this table. Above and below market leases are part of other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities. (3) Noncontrolling interest amounts associated with acquisition. (4) This portfolio of properties was directly acquired and is held by KWE. Kennedy Wilson owns approximately 20.3% of the total issued share capital of KWE as of March 31, 2016 . Gains on real estate During the three months ended March 31, 2016, KW Group sold its investment in a commercial property in the United Kingdom, which resulted in a gain of $11.0 million before noncontrolling interest ( $5.5 million net of noncontrolling interests) and KWE sold 13 commercial properties which resulted in a gain of $27.0 million before noncontrolling interest ( $4.9 million net of noncontrolling interests). These gains are presented net as a component of non-operating income (expense) as the properties were treated as businesses at acquisition. Guarantees Kennedy Wilson has certain guarantees associated with loans secured by consolidated assets. As of March 31, 2016 , the maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) Kennedy Wilson could be required to make under the guarantees was approximately $61.8 million which is approximately 1% of investment level debt of Kennedy Wilson and its equity partners. The guarantees expire through 2026 , and Kennedy Wilson’s performance under the guarantees would be required to the extent there is a shortfall upon liquidation between the principal amount of the loan and the net sale proceeds from the property. Based on the Company's evaluation of guarantees under FASB ASC Subtopic 460-10 Estimated Fair Value of Guarantees, the estimated fair value of guarantees made as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was immaterial.

UNCONSOLIDATED INVESTMENTS	UNCONSOLIDATED INVESTMENTS KW Group has unconsolidated investments through real estate related joint ventures and loan pool participations. The following table details its investments in joint ventures and loan pool participations as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 : March 31, December 31, (Dollars in millions) 2016 2015 Investments in joint ventures $ 455.5 $ 443.6 Investments in loan pool participations 1.2 1.3 Total $ 456.7 $ 444.9 Investments in Joint Ventures Kennedy Wilson has a number of joint venture interests, generally ranging from 5% to 50% , that were formed to acquire, manage, develop, service and/or sell real estate and invest in loan pools and discounted loan portfolios. Kennedy Wilson has significant influence over these entities, but not control, and accordingly, these investments are accounted for under the equity method. Joint Venture Holdings As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , Kennedy Wilson's investment in joint ventures totaled $455.5 million and $443.6 million , respectively. The following table details our investments in joint ventures by investment type and geographic location as of March 31, 2016 : (Dollars in millions) Multifamily Commercial Loan Residential Other Total Western U.S. $ 147.2 $ 54.6 $ 11.8 $ 184.2 $ 15.8 $ 413.6 Japan 6.4 — — — — 6.4 United Kingdom — 21.5 — — — 21.5 Spain — — — — 14.0 14.0 Total $ 153.6 $ 76.1 $ 11.8 $ 184.2 $ 29.8 $ 455.5 The following table details our investments in joint ventures by investment type and geographic location as of December 31, 2015 : (Dollars in millions) Multifamily Commercial Loan Residential Other Total Western U.S. $ 144.8 $ 51.4 $ 12.2 $ 180.1 $ 13.2 $ 401.7 Japan 5.8 — — — — 5.8 United Kingdom — 23.3 — — — 23.3 Spain — — — — 12.8 12.8 Total $ 150.6 $ 74.7 $ 12.2 $ 180.1 $ 26.0 $ 443.6 Vintage Housing Holdings ("VHH") During the second quarter of 2015, the Company purchased a 61% noncontrolling interest for $78.7 million in VHH, an existing venture that holds controlling interests in 30 syndicated limited partnerships ("LPs") that own multifamily properties via a traditional low-income tax credit structure in the Western United States. The remaining 39% is held by a non-affiliated entity who is appointed as the manager. Neither party controls VHH, and, accordingly, the Company accounts for its investment under the equity method. The LPs generate cash flow through their controlling interests in entities owning multifamily housing that is predominantly structured with low income housing credits to benefit the LPs. The Company has elected the fair value option on its unconsolidated investment in VHH. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company recognized a total of $9.6 million in fair value gains through equity income. The fair values gains were driven by recapitalizations through refinancings, sales to new partnerships, new developments to the portfolio and unrealized developer fees. Since the investment is accounted for under fair value, operating distributions are recorded as equity income. The Company has recognized $1.6 million in equity income related to operating distributions during the quarter ended March 31, 2016. VHH is KW Group's largest joint venture investment; there were no other investments that represented more than 10% of the investment in joint ventures balance as of March 31, 2016 or December 31, 2015 . Contributions to Joint Ventures During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , Kennedy Wilson did not contribute to any new joint ventures. Kennedy Wilson contributed $23.3 million to existing joint ventures during the three months ended March 31, 2016 to fund our share of a development project, to pay off external debt and for capital expenditures and working capital needs. Distributions from Joint Ventures and Investments in Loan Pools During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , Kennedy Wilson received $30.4 million in operating and investing distributions from its joint ventures and loan pools. Operating distributions resulted from operating cash flow generated by the joint venture investments. Investing distributions resulted from the refinancing of property level debt and asset sales. The following table details cash distributions by investment type and geographic location for the three months ended March 31, 2016 : Multifamily Commercial Loan Pools Residential and Other Total (Dollars in millions) Operating Investing Operating Investing Operating Investing Operating Investing Operating Investing Western U.S. $ 4.5 $ 18.9 $ 1.7 $ 0.8 $ — $ — $ 0.3 $ 4.1 $ 6.5 $ 23.8 Japan 0.1 — — — — — 0.1 — Total $ 4.6 $ 18.9 $ 1.7 $ 0.8 $ — $ — $ 0.3 $ 4.1 $ 6.6 $ 23.8 Consolidation Considerations The Company determines the appropriate accounting method with respect to all investments that are not VIEs based on the control-based framework (controlled entities are consolidated) provided by the consolidations guidance in FASB ASC Topic 810. The Company accounts for joint ventures where it is deemed that the Company does not have control through the equity method of accounting while entities the Company controls are consolidated in KW Group's financial statements. Capital Commitments As of March 31, 2016 , Kennedy Wilson had unfulfilled capital commitments totaling $42.1 million to four of its joint ventures. The Company may be called upon to contribute additional capital to joint ventures in satisfaction of such capital commitment obligations.

The fixed income portfolio consists mainly of U.S. government and investment grade corporate bonds. The carrying value of marketable securities is a level 1 valuation as the fair value is based off of unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities. The amount above excludes Kennedy Wilson's 27.6 million shares in KWE as the investment is eliminated due to the consolidation of KWE's results in KW Group's consolidated financial statements. Kennedy Wilson's investment in KWE had a market value of approximately $ 464.4 million (cost basis of $ 457.4 million ) based on a per share price of $16.86 at March 31, 2016 . As of March 31, 2016 , the Company had hedged 48% of the foreign currency rate risk of its net investment in KWE through using currency forward contracts and options, with a notional amount of £230.2 million . Fair Value and Fair Value Option - Unconsolidated Investments Kennedy Wilson records its investments in certain funds it manages and sponsors ("the Funds") based upon the net assets that would be allocated to its interests in the Funds assuming the Funds were to liquidate their investments at fair value as of the reporting date. Kennedy Wilson’s investment balance in the Funds was $40.5 million and $30.6 million at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively, which is included in unconsolidated investments in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2016 , Kennedy Wilson had unfunded capital commitments to the Funds in the amount of $39.4 million . Kennedy Wilson elected to use the fair value option ("FV Option") for ten unconsolidated investments to more accurately reflect the timing of the value created in the underlying investments and report those results in current operations. Kennedy Wilson's investment balance in the FV Option investments was $194.3 million and $193.2 million at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively, which is included in unconsolidated investments in the accompanying balance sheets. Refer to Note 5 for more detail. In estimating fair value of real estate held by the Funds and the ten FV Option investments, we consider significant unobservable inputs such as capitalization and discount rates. The following table summarizes our investments in unconsolidated investments held at fair value by type: (Dollars in millions) March 31, December 31, 2015 FV Option $ 194.3 $ 193.2 Funds 40.5 30.6 Total $ 234.8 $ 223.8 The following table presents changes in Level 3 investments for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 : Three Months Ended March 31, (Dollars in millions) 2016 2015 Beginning balance $ 223.8 $ 85.9 Unrealized and realized gains 17.6 5.2 Unrealized and realized losses — — Contributions 15.9 1.9 Distributions (22.9 ) (3.1 ) Other 0.4 (0.3 ) Ending balance $ 234.8 $ 89.6 Unobservable inputs for real estate The table below describes the range of unobservable inputs for real estate assets: Estimated Rates Used for Capitalization Rates Discount Rates Office 5.00% - 9.00% 6.75% - 11.25% Retail 6.25% - 8.75% 8.00% - 13.75% Multifamily 5.75% - 7.75% 8.00% - 9.75% Loan n/a 20.00% Land and condominium units n/a 8.00% - 15.00% In valuing real estate, related assets and indebtedness, we consider significant inputs such as the term of the debt, value of collateral, market loan-to-value ratios, market interest rates and spreads, and credit quality of investment entities. The credit spreads used for these types of investments range from 1.40% to 3.85% . The accuracy of estimating fair value for investments utilizing unobservable inputs cannot be determined with precision and cannot be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets. As such, estimated fair value may not be realized in a current sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including capitalization rates, discount rates, liquidity risks, and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts. Currency derivative contracts KW Group uses foreign currency derivative contracts such as forward contracts and options to manage its foreign currency risk exposure against the effects of a portion of its certain non-U.S. dollar denominated currency net investments. Foreign currency options are valued using a variant of the Black-Scholes model tailored for currency derivatives and the foreign currency forward contracts are valued based on the difference between the contract rate and the forward rate at maturity of the underlying currency applied to the notional value in the underlying currency discounted at a market rate for similar risks. Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its currency derivative contracts fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the counter-party risk adjustments associated with the currency derivative contracts utilize Level 3 inputs. However, as of March 31, 2016 , KW Group assessed the significance of the impact of the counter-party valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the counter-party valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivative. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuation in its entirety be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in fair value are recorded in other comprehensive income in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) as the portion of the currency derivative contracts used to hedge foreign currency exposure of its certain net investments in foreign operations qualifies as a net investment hedge under FASB ASC Topic 815. Ineffective portions of currency derivative contracts and contracts that do not quality for net investment hedges are recognized in the statement of operations within other income. The fair value of the currency derivative contracts held as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are reported in other assets for hedge assets and included in accrued expenses and other liabilities for hedge liabilities on the balance sheet. See note 11 for a complete discussion on other comprehensive income including currency derivative contracts and foreign currency translations.

(2) Hedges are presented gross in the consolidated balance sheet. Hedge assets are included in other assets and hedge liabilities are included in other liabilities. In addition to the hedge assets held above there were $4.9 million of unrealized gains recognized through other comprehensive income and $1.7 million of gains recognized through the consolidated statement of operations on currency derivative contracts that were settled during the period. The gains recognized through other comprehensive income will remain in accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying investments they were hedging are substantially liquidated by KW Group. Fair value of financial instruments The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable including related party receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, accrued salaries and benefits, and deferred and accrued income taxes approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The carrying value of loans (excluding related party loans as they are presumed not to be an arm’s length transaction) approximates fair value as the terms are similar to loans with similar characteristics available in the market. Debt liabilities are accounted for at face value plus net unamortized debt premiums and any fair value adjustments as part of business combinations. The fair value as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 for the senior notes payable, investment debt and line of credit were estimated to be approximately $4.6 billion and $4.3 billion , respectively, based on a comparison of the yield that would be required in a current transaction, taking into consideration the risk of the underlying collateral and our credit risk to the current yield of a similar security, compared to their carrying value of $ 4.5 billion and $4.4 billion at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively. The inputs used to value our senior notes payable, borrowings under lines of credit and mortgage loans payable are based on observable inputs for similar assets and quoted prices in markets that are not active and are therefore determined to be level 2 inputs.

The bonds were issued at a discount and have a carrying value of $425.6 million at March 31, 2016 . KWE effectively reduced the interest rate to 3.35% as a result of it entering into swap arrangements to convert 50% of the proceeds into Euros. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2015, KWE established a £2.0 billion (approximately $2.9 billion based on March 31, 2016 rates) Euro Medium Term Note ("EMTN") Programme. Under the EMTN Programme, KWE may issue, from time to time, up to £2.0 billion of various types of debt securities in certain markets and currencies. During the fourth quarter of 2015, KWE drew down under its EMTN Programme, with the issuance of senior unsecured notes for an aggregate principal amount of approximately $455.2 million (based on March 31, 2016 rates) ( €400 million ) (the "KWE Notes"). The KWE Notes were issued at a discount and have a carrying value of $448.0 million with an annual fixed coupon of 3.25% , and mature in 2025 . As KWE invests proceeds from the KWE Notes to fund equity investments in new euro denominated assets it designates the KWE Notes as net investment hedges under FASB ASC Topic 815. Subsequent fluctuations in foreign currency rates that impact the carrying value of the KWE Notes are recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , KW Group recognized a loss of $15.8 million in accumulated other comprehensive income due to the strengthening of the euro against the U.S dollar during the period. The KWE Notes rank pari passu with the KWE Bonds (as defined below), and are subject to the same restrictive covenants. The trust deed that governs the bonds contains various restrictive covenants for KWE, including, among others, limitations on KWE’s and its material subsidiaries’ ability to provide certain negative pledges. The trust deed limits the ability of KWE and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness if, on the date of such incurrence and after giving effect to the incurrence of the new indebtedness, (1) KWE’s consolidated net indebtedness (as defined in the trust deed) would exceed 60% of KWE’s total assets (as calculated pursuant to the terms of the trust deed); and (2) KWE’s consolidated secured indebtedness (as defined in the trust deed) would exceed 50% of KWE’s total assets (as calculated pursuant to the terms of the trust deed). The trust deed also requires KWE, as of each reporting date, to maintain an interest coverage ratio (as defined in the trust deed) of at least 1.50 to 1.00 and have unencumbered assets of no less than 125% of its unsecured indebtedness (as defined in the trust deed). As of March 31, 2016 , KWE was in compliance with these covenants. In August 2014, KWE entered into a three -year unsecured floating rate revolving debt facility ("KWE Facility") with Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Deutsche Bank, and J.P. Morgan Chase of approximately $323.9 million ( £225 million ) based on rates as of March 31, 2016 . During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , KWE did not draw on the KWE facility. As of March 31, 2016 , the unsecured credit facility was undrawn and $323.9 million ( £225 million ) based on rates as of March 31, 2016 was still available. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , one acquisition was partially financed with a mortgage, two existing investments were partially financed with mortgages and one existing investment with an existing mortgage was refinanced. See note 4 for more detail on the acquisitions and the investment debt associated with them. The aggregate maturities of investment debt subsequent to March 31, 2016 are as follows: (Dollars in millions) Aggregate Maturities 2016 $ 38.8 2017 191.5 2018 228.9 2019 844.9 2020 264.2 Thereafter 2,198.0 3,766.3 Debt discount (5.8 ) Unamortized loan fees (31.1 ) $ 3,729.4

Equity [Abstract]
EQUITY	EQUITY Common Stock Repurchase Program On February 25, 2016, Kennedy Wilson announced the authorization of a stock repurchase program for up to $100 million . Repurchases under the program may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and subject to the Company's discretion. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , Kennedy Wilson repurchased 240,000 shares for $5.0 million . Dividend Distributions During the following periods, Kennedy Wilson declared and paid the following cash distributions on its common and preferred stock: Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 (Dollars in millions) Declared Paid Declared Paid Preferred Stock Series A (1) $ — $ — $ 1.5 $ 1.5 Series B 0.5 0.5 0.5 0.5 Total Preferred Stock 0.5 0.5 2.0 2.0 Common Stock 16.1 13.8 12.5 8.7 Total (2) $ 16.6 $ 14.3 $ 14.5 $ 10.7 (1) The decrease in Series A dividends during the current year is due to the conversion of the Series A preferred stock into common shares during the second quarter of 2015. (2) The difference between declared and paid is the amount accrued on the consolidated balance sheets. Share-based Compensation During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , KW Group recognized $17.5 million and $7.3 million of compensation expense related to the vesting of restricted stock grants. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2016 is mainly due to vesting of 60% of the shares granted during 2012 under the Amended and Restated 2009 Equity Participation Plan as well as shares granted during the fourth quarter of 2015. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income The following table summarizes the changes in each component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes: Foreign Currency Translation Currency Derivative Contracts Marketable Securities Total Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Dollars in millions) Balance at December 31, 2015 $ (69.9 ) $ 22.4 $ (0.2 ) $ (47.7 ) Unrealized gains (loss), arising during the period 27.2 (54.7 ) 0.2 (27.3 ) Noncontrolling interest (14.7 ) 43.6 — 28.9 Taxes on unrealized gains (losses), arising during the period (5.0 ) 4.4 (0.1 ) (0.7 ) Balance at March 31, 2016 $ (62.4 ) $ 15.7 $ (0.1 ) $ (46.8 ) The local currencies for our interests in foreign operations include the euro, the British pound sterling, and the Japanese yen. The related amounts on KW Group's balance sheets are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at the respective financial statement date, while amounts on its statements of operations are translated at the average exchange rates during the respective period. The increase in the unrealized gains on foreign currency translation is a result of the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro, the British pound and the Japanese yen during the three months ended March 31, 2016 . In order to manage currency fluctuations, KW Group entered into currency derivative contracts to manage its exposure to currency fluctuations between its functional currency (U.S. dollar) and the functional currency (Euro, GBP and Yen) of certain of its wholly-owned and consolidated subsidiaries. See note 6 for a more detailed discussion of KW Group's currency derivative contracts. As discussed throughout this report, the Company is required under U.S. GAAP to consolidate certain non-wholly owned subsidiaries or investments that it controls. As such, the Company's financial statements reflect currency translation adjustments and related hedging activities on a gross basis. In many instances, these fluctuations are not reflective of the actual foreign currency exposure of the underlying consolidated subsidiary. For example, the Company is required to translate the activities of KWE into US dollars even though KWE does not invest in US dollar denominated assets. Therefore, it is important to look at the provided currency translation and currency derivative adjustment information net of noncontrolling interests to get a more accurate understanding of the actual currency exposure for the Company . Noncontrolling Interests Noncontrolling interests consist of the ownership interests of noncontrolling shareholders in consolidated subsidiaries, and are presented separately on KW Group's balance sheet. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 KW Group had noncontrolling interest of $1.7 billion and $1.7 billion , respectively. Kennedy Wilson currently owns approximately 20.3% of KWE’s total issued share capital as of March 31, 2016 . The noncontrolling interest holders in KWE had an equity balance of $1.5 billion as of March 31, 2016 . Due to the terms provided in the investment management agreement between KWE and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kennedy Wilson, the results of KWE are consolidated in KW Group's financial statements.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
EARNINGS PER SHARE	EARNINGS PER SHARE Under FASB ASC Topic 260-10-45, Earnings Per Share , the Company uses the two-class method to calculate earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is calculated based on dividends declared (“distributed earnings”) and the rights of common shares and participating securities in any undistributed earnings, which represents net income remaining after deduction of dividends declared during the period. Participating securities, which include unvested restricted stock, are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The undistributed earnings are allocated to all outstanding common shares and participating securities based on the relative percentage of each security to the total number of outstanding securities. Basic earnings per common share and participating securities represent the summation of the distributed and undistributed earnings per common share and participating security divided by the total weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the total weighted average number of participating securities outstanding during the respective periods. We only present the earnings per share attributable to the common shareholders. Net losses, after deducting the dividends to participating securities, are allocated in full to the common shares since the participating security holders do not have an obligation to share in the losses, based on the contractual rights and obligations of the participating securities. The following is a summary of the elements used in calculating basic and diluted income (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 : Three Months Ended March 31, (Dollars in millions, except share and per share amounts) 2016 2015 Net loss attributable to Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. common shareholders $ (7.4 ) $ (3.5 ) Dividends allocated to participating securities (0.5 ) (0.6 ) Net loss attributable to Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. common shareholders, net of allocation to participating securities (7.9 ) (4.1 ) Dividends declared on common shares (15.6 ) (11.8 ) Undistributed earnings attributable to Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. common shareholders, net of allocation to participating securities $ (23.5 ) $ (15.9 ) Distributed earnings per share $ 0.14 $ 0.12 Undistributed earnings per share (0.21 ) (0.17 ) Loss per basic (0.07 ) (0.05 ) Loss per diluted $ (0.07 ) $ (0.05 ) Weighted average shares outstanding for basic 109,214,633 91,547,838 Weighted average shares outstanding for diluted (1) 109,214,633 91,547,838 Dividends declared per common share $ 0.14 $ 0.12 (1) For the three months ended March 31, 2016 , a total of 8,381,629 potentially dilutive securities were not included in the diluted weighted average shares as they were anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, a total of 12,212,481 potentially dilutive securities have not been included in the diluted weighted average shares as they are anti-dilutive. Potentially anti-dilutive securities include preferred stock and unvested restricted stock grants.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES In determining quarterly provisions for income taxes, the Company calculates income tax expense based on actual year-to-date income and statutory tax rates. The year-to-date income tax expense also reflects the Company's assessment of potential exposure for uncertain tax positions. The fluctuations between periods in the Company's income tax expense are mainly due to varying levels of income and amounts attributable to foreign sourced income and noncontrolling interests. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , KW Group generated pretax book income of $21.0 million related to its global operations, and recorded a tax charge of $0.5 million . The difference between the U.S. federal rate of 35% and the Company's effective rate is primarily attributable to income earned by noncontrolling interests which is generally not subject to corporate taxes. In addition, during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 , the Company's effective tax rate was favorably impacted by capital gains realized from the sale of real estate in the United Kingdom which was not subject to corporate taxes. The Company has subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Luxembourg, Spain and Jersey which manage the Company's European real estate investments. As of March 31, 2016, the Company's management subsidiaries in Ireland and Jersey have positive, accumulated earnings of $4.3 million . U.S. domestic taxes have not been provided on amounts earned by the Company's Irish and Jersey management companies since it is the Company's plan to indefinitely reinvest amounts earned by these subsidiaries. If this amount was repatriated to the United States, additional U.S. domestic taxes of $1.5 million would be incurred.

Summary of Significant Accoun26

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements (Policies)	3 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2016
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
REVENUE RECOGNITION	Performance fees or carried interests are allocated to the general partner, special limited partner or asset manager of our real estate funds and loan pool participations based on the cumulative performance of the funds and loan pools and are subject to preferred return thresholds of the limited partners and participants. At the end of each reporting period, we calculate the performance fee that would be due to the general partner, special limited partner or asset manager's interests for a fund or loan pool, pursuant to the fund agreement or participation agreements, as if the fair value of the underlying investments were realized as of such date, irrespective of whether such amounts have been realized. As the fair value of underlying investments varies between reporting periods, it is necessary to make adjustments to amounts recorded as performance fees to reflect either (a) positive performance resulting in an increase in the performance fee allocated to the general partner or asset manager or (b) negative performance that would cause the amount due to us to be less than the amount previously recognized as revenue, resulting in a negative adjustment to performance fees allocated to the general partner or asset manager. A majority of the performance fees are recognized in investment management revenue, and substantially all of the carried interest is recognized in income from unconsolidated investments in our consolidated statements of operations.
REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS	The purchase price of acquired properties is recorded to land, buildings and building improvements and intangible lease value (value of above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place lease values, and tenant relationships, if any) based on their respective estimated fair values in accordance with ASC Subtopic 805-10, Business Combinations . Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. The ownership of the other interest holders in consolidated subsidiaries is reflected as noncontrolling interests. The valuations of real estate are based on management estimates of the real estate assets using income and market approaches. The indebtedness securing the real estate is valued, in part, based on third party valuations and management estimates also using an income approach.
NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS	Noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity (net assets) in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly to the Company. These amounts are reported within equity as a separate component in accordance with ASC Subtopic 810-10, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements . Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, net income (loss), and other comprehensive income (loss) are reported in the consolidated statements of operations at the consolidated amounts and net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests are separately stated.
FOREIGN CURRENCIES	The financial statements of KW Group's subsidiaries located outside the United States are measured using the local currency as this is their functional currency. The assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the rates of exchange at the balance sheet date, and income and expenses are translated at the average monthly rate. The foreign currencies include the euro, the British pound sterling, and the Japanese yen. Cumulative translation adjustments, to the extent not included in cumulative net income, are included in the consolidated statement of equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDING ACTIVITIES	All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their respective fair values. For derivatives designated in hedging relationships, changes in fair value of cash flow hedges or net investment hedges are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, to the extent the derivative is effective at offsetting the changes in the item being hedged until the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value for fair value hedges are recognized in earnings. Fluctuations in foreign exchanges rates may have a significant impact on the results of our operations. In order to manage the effect of these fluctuations, we generally hedge our book equity exposure to changes in foreign currency rates through currency forward contracts and options. We typically hedge 50% - 100% of book equity exposure against these foreign currencies.
INCOME TAXES	Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In accordance with ASC Subtopic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes , the effect of income tax positions is recognized only if those positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updated ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, a five step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts in an effort to increase consistency and comparability throughout global capital markets and across industries. The model will identify the contract, identify any separate performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price and recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. The new standard will replace most existing revenue recognition in GAAP when it becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. We have not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis ("ASU 2015-02") . ASU 2015-02 was adopted by the KW Group on January 1, 2016. The new standard makes certain changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model, including changes to (1) the identification of variable interests (fees paid to a decision maker or service provider), (2) the variable interest entity characteristics for a limited partnership or similar entity and (3) the primary beneficiary determination. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 did not result in any changes to our conclusions regarding the consolidation of investments under the new standard. We identified several entities, already consolidated under the previous standard but not considered VIEs, which under the new standard, are considered VIEs and will continue to be consolidated. KWE was determined to be a VIE under the new standard as were seven other less significant consolidated investments, all with the same partner and sharing similar legal structures. However because our analysis concludes that we are the primary beneficiary of those entities, they continue to be consolidated. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , to reduce the complexity of financial statement presentation pursuant to which debt issuance costs will be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liabilities as opposed to a deferred charge recognized as an asset. ASU 2015-03 is required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. ASU 2015-03 became effective for KW Group beginning January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. Because the Company's existing operating lease commitments are not material and the accounting for leases by the lessor is substantially unchanged, the Company does not expect the ASU to have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position. The FASB did not issue any other ASUs during the first three months of 2016 that the Company expects to be applicable and have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
RECLASSIFICATIONS	Certain balances included in prior year's financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.
