Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Organization Raymond James Financial, Inc. (“RJF,” the “firm” or the “Company”) is a financial holding company which, together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in various financial services activities, including providing investment management services for retail and institutional clients, the underwriting, distribution, trading and brokerage of equity and debt securities, and the sale of mutual funds and other investment products. The firm also provides corporate and retail banking services, and trust services. For further information about our business segments, see Note 22 of this Form 10-Q. As used herein, the terms “our,” “we,” or “us” refer to RJF and/or one or more of its subsidiaries. Basis of presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RJF and its consolidated subsidiaries that are generally controlled through a majority voting interest. We consolidate all of our 100% owned subsidiaries. In addition, we consolidate any variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which we are the primary beneficiary. Additional information on these VIEs is provided in Note 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2019 Form 10-K”) for the year ended September 30, 2019, as filed with the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in Note 8 of this Form 10-Q. When we do not have a controlling interest in an entity, but we exert significant influence over the entity, we apply the equity method of accounting. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Accounting estimates and assumptions Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) but is not required for interim reporting purposes has been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The nature of our business is such that the results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our 2019 Form 10-K. To prepare condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, we must make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and could have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

UPDATE OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTIN

UPDATE OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	9 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
UPDATE OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	UPDATE OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESA summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K. During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, there were no significant changes to our significant accounting policies other than the accounting policies adopted or modified as part of our implementation of new or amended accounting guidance, as noted in the following sections. Recent accounting developments Accounting guidance recently adopted Lease accounting - In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance related to the accounting for leases (ASU 2016-02). The new guidance and subsequent amendments requires the recognition of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by lease agreements with terms greater than twelve months, regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. We adopted this guidance as of October 1, 2019 using the alternative modified retrospective approach, with no adjustments to prior periods presented. In addition, we elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which, among other things, allowed us to carry forward historical lease classification determinations. On the adoption date, we recognized right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”) and lease liabilities of $333 million and $357 million, respectively, in “Other assets” and “Other payables” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The ROU assets and lease liabilities were primarily related to operating leases. The adoption had no effect on our results of operations or cash flows. The impact of the adoption on our regulatory capital measures was insignificant. See Note 10 for further information. Derivatives and hedging (interest rate) - In October 2018, the FASB issued guidance amending Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) to add the overnight index swap rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) to the list of U.S. benchmark interest rates that are eligible during the early stages of the market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to SOFR (ASU 2018-16). The amendments to this guidance will provide adequate lead time for entities to prepare for changes to interest rate hedging strategies. We adopted the guidance October 1, 2019 and will apply the guidance prospectively for qualifying new or re-designated hedging relationships. The adoption did not impact our financial position or results of operations. Reference rate reform - In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as SOFR (ASU 2020-04). The guidance simplifies the accounting for modifying contracts (including those in hedging relationships) that refer to LIBOR and other interbank offered rates. In addition, the guidance allows for changes to the critical terms of a hedging relationship affected by reference rate reform without having to dedesignate the relationship. The guidance was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. We have elected certain expedients for cash flow hedges to assert that the hedged forecasted transaction remains probable, regardless of any expected modification in terms related to reference rate reform. The expedients elected did not impact our financial position or results of operations. Accounting guidance not yet adopted as of June 30, 2020 Credit losses - In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance related to the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments (ASU 2016-13). The amended guidance involves several aspects of the accounting for credit losses related to certain financial instruments including assets measured at amortized cost, available-for-sale debt securities and certain off-balance sheet commitments. The new guidance, and subsequent updates, broadens the information that an entity must consider in developing its estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of assets measured either collectively or individually to include historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, replacing the existing incurred credit loss model and other models with the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model. The new guidance expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating credit losses and requires new disclosures of the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination. This new guidance is first effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2020 and will be adopted under a modified retrospective approach. Although permitted, we do not plan to early adopt. Our cross-functional team continues with the implementation efforts. We are in the process of validating our credit loss models and establishing formal procedures and control documentation related to this new guidance. In addition, we are finalizing required disclosures and policies. We continue to evaluate the impact the adoption of this new guidance will have on our financial position and results of operations. The impact will ultimately depend on, among other things, our methodologies, management judgments, current and expected macroeconomic conditions, and the nature and characteristics of financial assets held by us on the date of adoption. Internal use software (cloud computing) - In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance on the accounting for implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements (ASU 2018-15). This guidance requires implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements to be deferred and recognized over the non-cancelable term of the cloud computing arrangements plus any optional renewal periods (1) that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the customer or (2) for which exercise of the renewal option is controlled by the cloud service provider. This amended guidance is first effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted, and may be adopted using either a prospective or retrospective approach. We plan to adopt this standard prospectively effective for annual periods beginning October 1, 2020. The impact of this amended guidance is dependent on implementation costs incurred subsequent to adoption. Consolidation (decision making fees) - In October 2018, the FASB issued guidance on how all entities evaluate decision-making fees under the VIE guidance (ASU 2018-17). Under the new guidance, to determine whether decision-making fees represent a variable interest, an entity considers indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportionate basis, rather than in their entirety. This guidance is first effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2020. Although permitted, we do not plan to early adopt. We are evaluating the impact the adoption of this new guidance will have on our financial position and results of operations.

As of June 30, 2020, 15% of our assets and 1% of our liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. In comparison, as of September 30, 2019, 12% of our assets and 2% of our liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis categorized as Level 3 represented 1% and 2%, respectively, of our assets measured at fair value. Quantitative information about level 3 fair value measurements The following tables present the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of certain of our private equity investments classified as level 3. These inputs represent those that a market participant would take into account when pricing these instruments. Weighted averages are calculated by weighting each input by the relative fair value of the related financial instrument. Certain investments are valued initially at transaction price and updated as other investment-specific events take place which indicate that a change in the carrying values of these investments is appropriate. Other investment-specific events include such events as our periodic review, significant transactions occur or new developments become known. Recurring measurements $ in millions Fair value at June 30, 2020 Valuation technique(s) Unobservable input Range Other investments - private equity investments (not measured at NAV) $ 30 Discounted cash flow, transaction price or other investment-specific events Discount rate 25% Terminal earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiple 9.0x Terminal year 2021 - 2042 (2024) Fair value at September 30, 2019 Other investments - private equity investments (not measured at NAV) $ 63 Discounted cash flow, transaction price or other investment-specific events Discount rate 25% Terminal EBITDA multiple 12.5x Terminal year 2021 - 2042 (2022) Qualitative information about unobservable inputs For our recurring fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in significant unobservable inputs and interrelationships between those unobservable inputs are described in the following section. Private equity investments The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of private equity investments generally relate to the financial performance of the investment entity and the market’s required return on investments from entities in industries in which we hold investments. Increases in the discount rate would have resulted in a lower fair value measurement. Increases in the terminal EBITDA multiple would have resulted in a higher fair value measurement. Increases in the terminal year are dependent upon each investment’s strategy, but generally result in a lower fair value measurement. Investments in private equity measured at net asset value per share As more fully described in Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K, as a practical expedient, we utilize NAV or its equivalent to determine the recorded value of a portion of our private equity investments portfolio. We utilize NAV when the fund investment does not have a readily determinable fair value and the NAV of the fund is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of investment company accounting, including measurement of the investments at fair value. Our private equity portfolio includes various direct investments, as well as investments in third-party private equity funds and various legacy private equity funds which we sponsor. The portfolio is primarily invested in a broad range of industries including leveraged buyouts, growth capital, distressed capital, venture capital and mezzanine capital. Due to the closed-end nature of certain of our fund investments, such investments cannot be redeemed directly with the funds. Our investment is monetized by distributions received through the liquidation of the underlying assets of those funds, the timing of which is uncertain. The following table presents the recorded value and unfunded commitments related to our private equity investments portfolio. $ in millions Recorded value Unfunded commitment June 30, 2020 Private equity investments measured at NAV $ 73 $ 9 Private equity investments not measured at NAV 30 Total private equity investments $ 103 September 30, 2019 Private equity investments measured at NAV $ 83 $ 15 Private equity investments not measured at NAV 63 Total private equity investments $ 146 Of the total private equity investments, the portions we owned were $81 million and $99 million as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively. The portions of the private equity investments we did not own were $22 million and $47 million as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively, and were included as a component of noncontrolling interests on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Many of these fund investments meet the definition of prohibited covered funds as defined by the Volcker Rule enacted pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. We have received approval from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Fed”) to continue to hold the majority of our covered fund investments until July 2022. However, our current focus is on the divestiture of this portfolio. Financial instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis The following table presents assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis along with the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the assets classified as level 3. These inputs represent those that a market participant would take into account when pricing these instruments. Weighted averages are calculated by weighting each input by the relative fair value of the related financial instrument. $ in millions Level 2 Level 3 Total fair value Valuation technique(s) Unobservable input Range June 30, 2020 Bank loans, net: Impaired loans: residential $ 5 $ 13 $ 18 Discounted cash flow Prepayment rate 7 yrs. - 12 yrs.

Financial instruments not recorded at fair value Many, but not all, of the financial instruments we hold were recorded at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The following table presents the estimated fair value and fair value hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities that are not recorded at fair value in accordance with GAAP on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019. This table excludes financial instruments that are carried at amounts which approximate fair value.

Refer to the discussion of our available-for-sale securities accounting policies, including the fair value determination process, in Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K. The following table details the amortized cost and fair values of our available-for-sale securities. $ in millions Cost basis Gross Gross Fair value June 30, 2020 Agency residential MBS $ 2,895 $ 69 $ (1) $ 2,963 Agency commercial MBS 570 20 — 590 Agency CMOs 2,032 29 — 2,061 Other securities 15 1 — 16 Total available-for-sale securities $ 5,512 $ 119 $ (1) $ 5,630 September 30, 2019 Agency residential MBS $ 1,555 $ 20 $ (1) $ 1,574 Agency commercial MBS 305 5 — 310 Agency CMOs 1,195 7 (3) 1,199 Other securities 10 — — 10 Total available-for-sale securities $ 3,065 $ 32 $ (4) $ 3,093 See Note 3 for additional information regarding the fair value of available-for-sale securities. The following table details the contractual maturities, amortized costs, carrying values and current yields for our available-for-sale securities. Since our MBS and CMO available-for-sale securities are backed by mortgages, actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations without prepayment penalties. As of June 30, 2020, the duration of our available-for-sale securities portfolio was approximately three years.

At June 30, 2020, debt securities we held in excess of ten percent of our equity included Federal National Home Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”) which had an amortized cost of $3.78 billion and $1.44 billion, respectively, and a fair value of $3.86 billion and $1.47 billion, respectively. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, we received proceeds of $222 million, resulting in an insignificant gain, from sales of available-for-sale securities. The gain from the sales was included in “Other” revenues on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019, there were no sales of available-for-sale securities.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
DERIVATIVE ASSETS AND DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES	DERIVATIVE ASSETS AND DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES Our derivative assets and derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value and are included in “Derivative assets” and “Derivative liabilities” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Cash flows related to our derivatives are included within operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The significant accounting policies governing our derivatives, including our methodologies for determining fair value, are described in Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K. Derivative balances included on our financial statements The following table presents the gross fair value and notional amount of derivatives by product type, the amounts of counterparty and cash collateral netting on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, as well as collateral posted and received under credit support agreements that do not meet the criteria for netting under GAAP.

(2) Although the matched book derivative arrangements do not meet the definition of a master netting arrangement as specified by GAAP, the agreement with the third-party intermediary includes terms that are similar to a master netting agreement. As a result, we present the matched book amounts net in the preceding table. The following table details the gains/(losses) included in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of income taxes, on derivatives designated as hedging instruments. These gains/(losses) included any amounts reclassified from AOCI to net income during the period. See Note 16 for additional information.

We expect to reclassify $15 million of interest expense out of AOCI and into earnings within the next 12 months. The maximum length of time over which forecasted transactions are or will be hedged is 7 years.

Where we are subject to credit exposure, we perform a credit evaluation of counterparties prior to entering into derivative transactions and we monitor their credit standings. We may require initial margin or collateral from counterparties in the form of cash deposits or other marketable securities to support certain of these obligations as established by the credit threshold specified by the agreement and/or as a result of monitoring the credit standing of the counterparties. Our only exposure to credit risk in the matched book derivatives operations is related to our uncollected derivative transaction fee revenues, which were insignificant as of both June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019. We are not exposed to market risk on these derivatives due to the pass-through transaction structure described in Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K. Interest rate and foreign exchange risk We are exposed to interest rate risk related to certain of our interest rate derivatives. We are also exposed to foreign exchange risk related to our forward foreign exchange derivatives. On a daily basis, we monitor our risk exposure on our derivatives based on established limits with respect to a number of factors, including interest rate, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, spread, ratio, basis and volatility risks, both for the total portfolio and by maturity period. Derivatives with credit-risk-related contingent features Certain of our derivative contracts contain provisions that require our debt to maintain an investment-grade rating from one or more of the major credit rating agencies. If our debt were to fall below investment-grade, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could terminate and request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing overnight collateralization on our derivative instruments in liability positions. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with such credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position was insignificant as of both June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019.

Offsetting [Abstract]
COLLATERALIZED AGREEMENTS AND FINANCINGS	COLLATERALIZED AGREEMENTS AND FINANCINGS Collateralized agreements are securities purchased under agreements to resell (“reverse repurchase agreements”) and securities borrowed. Collateralized financings are securities sold under agreements to repurchase (“repurchase agreements”) and securities loaned. We enter into these transactions in order to facilitate client activities, invest excess cash, acquire securities to cover short positions and finance certain firm activities. The significant accounting policies governing our collateralized agreements and financings are described in Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K. For financial statement purposes, we do not offset our reverse repurchase agreements, repurchase agreements, securities borrowing and securities lending transactions because the conditions for netting as specified by GAAP are not met. Our reverse repurchase agreements, repurchase agreements, securities borrowing and securities lending transactions are governed by master agreements that are widely used by counterparties and that may allow for net settlements of payments in the normal course, as well as offsetting of all contracts with a given counterparty in the event of bankruptcy or default of one of the parties to the transaction. Although not offset on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, these transactions are included in the following table. Assets Liabilities $ in millions Reverse repurchase agreements Securities borrowed Repurchase agreements Securities loaned June 30, 2020 Gross amounts of recognized assets/liabilities $ 193 $ 300 $ 228 $ 88 Gross amounts offset on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition — — — — Net amounts presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition 193 300 228 88 Gross amounts not offset on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition (193) (293) (228) (78) Net amounts $ — $ 7 $ — $ 10 September 30, 2019 Gross amounts of recognized assets/liabilities $ 343 $ 248 $ 150 $ 323 Gross amounts offset on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition — — — — Net amounts presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition 343 248 150 323 Gross amounts not offset on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition (343) (243) (150) (311) Net amounts $ — $ 5 $ — $ 12 Total collateral received under reverse repurchase agreements and the total amount of collateral posted under repurchase agreements exceeds the carrying value of these agreements on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Collateral received and pledged We receive cash and securities as collateral, primarily in connection with reverse repurchase agreements, securities borrowed, derivative transactions and client margin loans. The collateral we receive reduces our credit exposure to individual counterparties. In many cases, we are permitted to deliver or repledge financial instruments we have received as collateral to satisfy our collateral requirements under our repurchase agreements, securities lending agreements or other secured borrowings, to satisfy deposit requirements with clearing organizations, or to otherwise meet either our or our clients’ settlement requirements. The following table presents financial instruments at fair value that we received as collateral, were not included on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, and that were available to be delivered or repledged, along with the balances of such instruments that were delivered or repledged, to satisfy one of our purposes previously described. $ in millions June 30, September 30, Collateral we received that was available to be delivered or repledged $ 2,516 $ 2,931 Collateral that we delivered or repledged $ 723 $ 897 Encumbered assets We pledge certain of our assets to collateralize either repurchase agreements or other secured borrowings, maintain lines of credit, or to satisfy our collateral or settlement requirements with counterparties or clearing organizations who may or may not have the right to deliver or repledge such instruments.

Receivables [Abstract]
BANK LOANS, NET	BANK LOANS, NET Bank client receivables are comprised of loans originated or purchased by RJ Bank and include commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loans, tax-exempt loans, commercial and residential real estate loans, securities-based loans (“SBL”) and other loans. These receivables are collateralized by first and, to a lesser extent, second mortgages on residential or other real property, other assets of the borrower, a pledge of revenue or are unsecured. See Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K for a discussion of accounting policies related to bank loans and allowances for losses. We segregate our loan portfolio into six loan portfolio segments: C&I, commercial real estate (“CRE”), CRE construction, tax-exempt, residential mortgage, and SBL and other. These portfolio segments also serve as the portfolio loan classes for purposes of credit analysis, except for residential mortgage loans which are further disaggregated into residential first mortgage and residential home equity classes. The following table presents the balances for both the held for sale and held for investment loan portfolios, as well as the associated percentage of each portfolio segment in RJ Bank’s total loan portfolio. “Loans held for sale, net” and “Total loans held for investment, net” in the following table are presented net of unearned income and deferred expenses, which include purchase premiums, purchase discounts and net deferred origination fees and costs.

See Note 12 for more information regarding borrowings from the FHLB. Loans held for sale RJ Bank originated or purchased $185 million and $1.33 billion of loans held for sale during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $522 million and $1.79 billion during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Proceeds from the sale of these held for sale loans amounted to $130 million and $564 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $159 million and $516 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Net gains resulting from such sales were insignificant in all periods during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

These classifications are divided into three groups: Not Classified (Pass), Special Mention, and Classified or Adverse Rating (Substandard, Doubtful and Loss). These terms are defined as follows: Pass – Loans which are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor (or guarantors, if any) or by the fair value, less costs to acquire and sell, of any underlying collateral in a timely manner. Special Mention – Loans which have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. These loans are not adversely classified and do not expose RJ Bank to sufficient risk to warrant an adverse classification. Substandard – Loans which are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans with this classification are characterized by the distinct possibility that RJ Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful – Loans which have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of currently-known facts, conditions and values. Loss – Loans which are considered by management to be uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance on our books as an asset, without establishment of a specific valuation allowance or charge-off, is not warranted. We do not have any bank loan balances within this classification because, in accordance with our accounting policy, loans, or a portion thereof considered to be uncollectible, are charged-off prior to the assignment of this classification. The following table presents the credit quality of RJ Bank’s held for investment loan portfolio. $ in millions Pass Special mention Substandard Doubtful Total June 30, 2020 C&I loans $ 7,384 $ 281 $ 66 $ — $ 7,731 CRE construction loans 219 — — — 219 CRE loans 3,341 262 92 — 3,695 Tax-exempt loans 1,290 — — — 1,290 Residential mortgage loans: First mortgage loans 4,861 9 23 — 4,893 Home equity loans/lines 24 — — — 24 SBL and other 3,631 — — — 3,631 Total loans held for investment $ 20,750 $ 552 $ 181 $ — $ 21,483 September 30, 2019 C&I loans $ 7,870 $ 152 $ 76 $ — $ 8,098 CRE construction loans 185 — — — 185 CRE loans 3,630 — 22 — 3,652 Tax-exempt loans 1,241 — — — 1,241 Residential mortgage loans: First mortgage loans 4,392 10 25 — 4,427 Home equity loans/lines 27 — — — 27 SBL and other 3,349 — — — 3,349 Total loans held for investment $ 20,694 $ 162 $ 123 $ — $ 20,979 Loans classified as special mention, substandard or doubtful are all considered to be “criticized” loans.

Variable Interest Entities [Abstract]
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES	VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES A VIE requires consolidation by the entity’s primary beneficiary. We evaluate all of the entities in which we are involved to determine if the entity is a VIE and if so, whether we hold a variable interest and are the primary beneficiary. Refer to Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K for a discussion of our principal involvement with VIEs and the accounting policies regarding determination of whether we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of VIEs. VIEs where we are the primary beneficiary Of the VIEs in which we hold an interest, we have determined that certain limited partnerships which are part of our private equity portfolio (“Private Equity Interests”), certain Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (“LIHTC”) funds and the trust we utilize in connection with restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards granted to certain employees of one of our Canadian subsidiaries (the “Restricted Stock Trust Fund”) require consolidation in our financial statements, as we are deemed the primary beneficiary of such VIEs. The aggregate assets and liabilities of the VIEs we consolidate are provided in the following table. Aggregate assets and aggregate liabilities may differ from the consolidated carrying value of assets and liabilities due to the elimination of intercompany assets and liabilities held by the consolidated VIE. $ in millions Aggregate assets Aggregate liabilities June 30, 2020 Private Equity Interests $ 33 $ 4 LIHTC funds 246 159 Restricted Stock Trust Fund 19 19 Total $ 298 $ 182 September 30, 2019 Private Equity Interests $ 65 $ 4 LIHTC funds 80 5 Restricted Stock Trust Fund 14 14 Total $ 159 $ 23 The following table presents information about the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of the VIEs which we consolidate and which are included on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Such VIEs include certain Private Equity Interests, certain LIHTC funds, and other limited partnerships. Our risk of loss for these VIEs is limited to our investments in, advances to, and/or receivables due from these VIEs. Aggregate assets, liabilities and risk of loss The aggregate assets, liabilities, and our exposure to loss from those VIEs in which we hold a variable interest, but as to which we have concluded we are not the primary beneficiary, are provided in the following table.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
GOODWILL AND IDENTIFIABLE INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET	GOODWILL AND IDENTIFIABLE INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET Our goodwill and identified intangible assets result from various acquisitions. See Notes 2 and 11 of our 2019 Form 10-K for information about our goodwill and intangible assets, including the related accounting policies. We perform goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment testing on an annual basis or when an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value or indicate that the asset is impaired. We performed our latest annual impairment testing for our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset as of our January 1, 2020 evaluation date, evaluating balances as of December 31, 2019. We performed a qualitative impairment assessment for each of our reporting units that had goodwill, as well as for our indefinite-lived intangible asset. Based upon the outcome of our qualitative assessments, no impairment was identified. Our qualitative assessments consider macroeconomic indicators, such as trends in equity and fixed income markets, gross domestic product, unemployment rates, interest rates, housing markets and trade policy. We also consider regulatory changes, reporting unit specific results, and changes in key personnel and strategy. Changes in these indicators, and our ability to respond to such changes, may trigger the need for impairment testing at a point other than our annual assessment date. Subsequent to our annual impairment testing, as a result of a deterioration in market conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we performed an evaluation to determine whether the economic impacts resulting from the pandemic were indicators requiring us to perform an impairment test as of June 30, 2020. Multiple factors, including performance, macroeconomic, and fair value indicators, were assessed with respect to each of our reporting units to determine whether it was more likely than not that the estimated fair value of any of these reporting units was less than its estimated carrying value. As a result of our review, we concluded that the fair value of our reporting units had not more likely than not been reduced below their respective carrying values and that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through the end of our fiscal third quarter of 2020 was not a triggering event to perform a quantitative test. We will continue to monitor the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including market declines, unfavorable economic conditions, declining financial performance, and other factors that could increase the risk of impairment of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset in future periods.

LEASES

Leases [Abstract]
LEASES	LEASES We have operating leases for the premises we occupy in many of our U.S. and foreign locations, including our employee-based branch office operations. We also lease certain office and technology equipment. At inception, we determine if an arrangement to utilize a building or piece of equipment is a lease and, if so, the appropriate lease classification. If the arrangement is determined to be a lease, we recognize a ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability on our balance sheet. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. We have elected the practical expedient, where leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded as an ROU asset or lease liability. Our lease terms include any noncancelable periods and may reflect periods covered by options to extend or terminate when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise those options. As of June 30, 2020, the weighted-average remaining lease term for our operating leases was five years. We record our operating lease ROU assets at the amount of the lease liability plus any prepaid rent and initial direct costs, less any lease incentives and accrued rent. We record lease liabilities at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, which is discounted using our commencement date incremental borrowing rate. Our incremental borrowing rate considers the weighted-average yields on our senior notes payable, adjusted for collateralization and tenor. As of June 30, 2020, the weighted-average discount rate for our operating leases was 3.84%. Payments that vary because of changes in facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement date are considered variable and are expensed in the period incurred. For our real estate leases, we elected the practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease. We have not elected the practical expedient for our equipment leases and account for lease and non-lease components separately. As of June 30, 2020, ROU assets of $326 million and lease liabilities of $351 million were included as components of “Other assets” and “Other payables,” respectively, on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Lease expense Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term if the ROU asset has not been impaired or abandoned. The components of lease expense were as follows. $ in million Three months ended June 30, 2020 Nine months ended June 30, 2020 Operating lease costs $ 25 $ 71 Variable lease costs $ 6 $ 18 Variable lease costs in the preceding table includes payments for common area maintenance charges and other variable costs that are not reflected in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities. Finance leases and sublease income were immaterial for all periods presented. Short-term lease expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 were immaterial.

OTHER BORROWINGS	OTHER BORROWINGS The following table details the components of other borrowings. $ in millions June 30, 2020 September 30, 2019 FHLB advances $ 875 $ 875 Mortgage notes payable and other 15 19 Total other borrowings $ 890 $ 894 FHLB advances Borrowings from the FHLB as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, were comprised of both floating and fixed-rate advances. As of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the floating-rate advances totaled $850 million. The interest rates on the floating-rate advances, which mature in December 2022, reset quarterly and are generally based on LIBOR. We use interest rate swaps to manage the risk of increases in interest rates associated with these floating-rate advances by converting the balances subject to variable interest rates to a fixed interest rate. Refer to Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K for information regarding these interest rate swaps, which are accounted for as hedging instruments. As of both June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the fixed-rate advance totaled $25 million and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.4%. This advance matures in October 2020. All of the advances were secured by a blanket lien granted to the FHLB on our residential mortgage loan portfolio. The weighted-average interest rate on these FHLB advances as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 was 0.50% and 2.17%, respectively. Secured and unsecured financing arrangements On February 19, 2019, RJF and RJ&A entered into an unsecured revolving credit facility agreement (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility has a maturity date of February 2024 and the lenders include a number of financial institutions. This committed unsecured borrowing facility provides for maximum borrowings of up to $500 million, with a sublimit of $300 million for RJF. RJ&A may borrow up to $500 million under the Credit Facility, depending on the amount of outstanding borrowings of RJF. The interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Facility are variable and based on LIBOR, as adjusted for RJF’s credit rating. There were no borrowings outstanding on the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2020. There is a facility fee associated with the Credit Facility, which also varies with RJF’s credit rating. Based upon RJF’s credit rating as of June 30, 2020, the variable rate facility fee, which is applied to the committed amount, was 0.175% per annum. In addition to the Credit Facility, we maintain various secured and unsecured lines of credit, which are generally utilized to finance certain fixed income securities or for cash management purposes. Borrowings during the period were generally day-to-day and there were no borrowings outstanding on these arrangements as of June 30, 2020. The interest rates for these arrangements are variable and are based on the Fed Funds rate, LIBOR, a lenders prime rate, or the Canadian prime rate, as applicable. We also have other collateralized financings included in “Securities sold under agreements to repurchase” and “Securities loaned” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. See Note 6 for information regarding our other collateralized financing arrangements. Mortgage notes payable and other Mortgage notes payable pertain to mortgage loans on certain of our corporate headquarters offices located in St. Petersburg, Florida. These mortgage loans are secured by land, buildings, and improvements. These mortgage loans bear a fixed interest rate of 5.7% with repayment terms of monthly interest and principal debt service and have a January 2023 maturity.

Interest on these senior notes is payable semi-annually. We may redeem some or all of these senior notes at any time prior to January 1, 2030, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed, or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon, discounted to the redemption date at a discount rate equal to a designated U.S. Treasury rate, plus 50 basis points; and on or after January 1, 2030, at 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed; plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. In July 2016, we sold in a registered underwritten public offering $300 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.95% senior notes due July 2046. In May 2017, we reopened the offering and sold, in a registered underwritten public offering, an additional $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.95% senior notes due July 2046. These additional senior notes were consolidated, formed into a single series, and are fully fungible with the $300 million in aggregate principal amount 4.95% senior notes issued in July 2016. Interest on these senior notes is payable semi-annually. We may redeem some or all of these senior notes at any time prior to their maturity, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed, or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon, discounted to the redemption date at a discount rate equal to a designated U.S. Treasury rate, plus 45 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXESThe income tax provision for interim periods is comprised of tax on ordinary income provided at the most recent estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for the tax effect of discrete items. We estimate the annual effective tax rate quarterly based on the forecasted pretax results of our U.S. and non-U.S. operations. Items unrelated to current year ordinary income are recognized entirely in the period identified as a discrete item of tax. These discrete items generally relate to changes in tax laws, adjustments to the actual liability determined upon filing tax returns, excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation and adjustments to previously recorded reserves for uncertain tax positions. For discussion of income tax accounting policies and other income tax related information, see Notes 2 and 16 of our 2019 Form 10-K. Effective tax rate Our effective income tax rate was 23.5% for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, which was lower than the 24.8% effective tax rate for fiscal year 2019. The decrease in the effective tax rate compared to the prior year effective tax rate was primarily due to the favorable impact of permanent tax benefits on lower pre-tax earnings during the nine months ended June 30, 2020. Uncertain tax positions We anticipate that the uncertain tax position liability balance will not change significantly over the next twelve months.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES	COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES Commitments and contingencies Loan and underwriting commitments In the normal course of business, we enter into commitments for debt and equity underwritings. As of June 30, 2020, we had 11 such open underwriting commitments, which were subsequently settled in open market transactions and none of which resulted in a significant loss. We offer loans to prospective financial advisors and certain key revenue producers primarily for recruiting, transitional cost assistance, and retention purposes (see Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K for a discussion of our accounting policies governing these transactions). These offers are contingent upon certain events occurring, including the individuals joining us and meeting certain conditions outlined in their offer. Our unfunded loan commitments related to such offers were insignificant as of June 30, 2020. Commitments to extend credit and other credit-related financial instruments RJ Bank has outstanding, at any time, a significant number of commitments to extend credit and other credit-related off-balance sheet financial instruments such as standby letters of credit and loan purchases, which then extend over varying periods of time. These arrangements are subject to strict underwriting assessments and each customer’s credit worthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Fixed-rate commitments are also subject to market risk resulting from fluctuations in interest rates and our exposure is limited to the replacement value of those commitments. The following table presents RJ Bank’s commitments to extend credit and other credit-related off-balance sheet financial instruments outstanding. $ in millions June 30, 2020 September 30, 2019 Open-end consumer lines of credit (primarily SBL) $ 11,397 $ 9,328 Commercial lines of credit $ 1,373 $ 1,527 Unfunded loan commitments $ 592 $ 599 Standby letters of credit $ 30 $ 40 Open-end consumer lines of credit primarily represent the unfunded amounts of RJ Bank loans to consumers that are secured by marketable securities at advance rates consistent with industry standards. The proceeds from repayment or, if necessary, the liquidation of collateral, which is monitored daily, are expected to satisfy the amounts drawn against these existing lines of credit. These lines of credit are primarily uncommitted, as we reserve the right to not make any advances or may terminate these lines at any time. Because many of our lending commitments expire without being funded in whole or part, the contractual amounts are not estimates of our actual future credit exposure or future liquidity requirements. We maintain a reserve to provide for potential losses related to the unfunded lending commitments. See Note 7 for further discussion of this reserve for unfunded lending commitments. RJ&A enters into margin lending arrangements which allow customers to borrow against the value of qualifying securities. Margin loans are collateralized by the securities held in the customer’s account at RJ&A. Collateral levels and established credit terms are monitored daily and we require customers to deposit additional collateral or reduce balances as necessary. Investment commitments We had unfunded commitments to various investments, including private equity investments and certain RJ Bank investments, of $38 million as of June 30, 2020. Other commitments Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc. (“RJTCF”) sells investments in project partnerships to various LIHTC funds, which have third-party investors, and for which RJTCF serves as the managing member or general partner. RJTCF typically sells investments in project partnerships to LIHTC funds within 90 days of their acquisition. Until such investments are sold to LIHTC funds, RJTCF is responsible for funding investment commitments to such partnerships. As of June 30, 2020, RJTCF had committed approximately $130 million to project partnerships that had not yet been sold to LIHTC funds. Because we expect to sell these project partnerships to LIHTC funds and the equity funding events arise over future periods, the contractual commitments are not expected to impact our future liquidity requirements. RJTCF may also make short-term loans or advances to project partnerships and LIHTC funds. As a part of our fixed income public finance operations, we enter into forward commitments to purchase agency MBS (see the discussion of these activities within Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K). At June 30, 2020, we had $426 million principal amount of outstanding forward MBS purchase commitments, which were expected to be purchased within 90 days following commitment. In order to hedge the market interest rate risk to which we would otherwise be exposed between the date of the commitment and the date of sale of the MBS, we enter into TBA security contracts with investors for generic MBS at specific rates and prices to be delivered on settlement dates in the future. We may be subject to loss if the timing of, or the actual amount of, the MBS differs significantly from the term and notional amount of the TBA security contract to which we entered. These TBA securities and related purchase commitments are accounted for at fair value. As of June 30, 2020, the fair value of the TBA securities and the estimated fair value of the purchase commitments were insignificant. Guarantees Our U.S. broker-dealer subsidiaries are required by federal law to be members of the Securities Investors Protection Corporation (“SIPC”). The SIPC fund provides protection up to $500 thousand per client for securities and cash held in client accounts, including a limitation of $250 thousand on claims for cash balances. We have purchased excess SIPC coverage through various syndicates of Lloyd’s of London. For RJ&A, our clearing broker-dealer, the additional protection currently provided has an aggregate firm limit of $750 million for cash and securities, including a sub-limit of $1.9 million per client for cash above basic SIPC. Account protection applies when a SIPC member fails financially and is unable to meet obligations to clients. This coverage does not protect against market fluctuations. RJF has provided an indemnity to Lloyd’s of London against any and all losses they may incur associated with the excess SIPC policies. We guarantee the debt of one of our private equity investments. The amount of such debt, including the undrawn portion of a revolving credit facility, was $13 million as of June 30, 2020. The debt, which matures in 2022, is secured by substantially all of the assets of the borrower. Legal and regulatory matter contingencies In addition to any matters that may be specifically described in the following sections, in the normal course of our business, we have been named, from time to time, as a defendant in various legal actions, including arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, arising in connection with our activities as a diversified financial services institution. RJF and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to regular reviews and inspections by regulatory authorities and self-regulatory organizations. Reviews can result in the imposition of sanctions for regulatory violations, ranging from non-monetary censures to fines and, in serious cases, temporary or permanent suspension from conducting business, or limitations on certain business activities. In addition, regulatory agencies and self-regulatory organizations institute investigations from time to time, among other things, into industry practices, which can also result in the imposition of such sanctions. We may contest liability and/or the amount of damages, as appropriate, in each pending matter. Over the last several years, the level of litigation and investigatory activity (both formal and informal) by government and self-regulatory agencies has increased significantly in the financial services industry. There can be no assurance that material losses will not be incurred from claims that have not yet been asserted or are not yet determined to be material. For many legal and regulatory matters, we are unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss as we cannot predict if, how or when such proceedings or investigations will be resolved or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if any, may be. A large number of factors may contribute to this inherent unpredictability: the proceeding is in its early stages; the damages sought are unspecified, unsupported or uncertain; it is unclear whether a case brought as a class action will be allowed to proceed on that basis; the other party is seeking relief other than or in addition to compensatory damages (including, in the case of regulatory and governmental proceedings, potential fines and penalties); the matters present significant legal uncertainties; we have not engaged in settlement discussions; discovery is not complete; there are significant facts in dispute; and numerous parties are named as defendants (including where it is uncertain how liability might be shared among defendants). Subject to the foregoing, after consultation with counsel, we believe that the outcome of such litigation and regulatory proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition. However, the outcome of such litigation and proceedings could be material to our operating results and cash flows for a particular future period, depending on, among other things, our revenues or income for such period. There are certain matters for which we are unable to estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible loss. With respect to legal and regulatory matters for which management has been able to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss as of June 30, 2020, we estimated the upper end of the range of reasonably possible aggregate loss to be approximately $125 million in excess of the aggregate accruals for such matters. Refer to Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K for a discussion of our criteria for recognizing liabilities for contingencies. We may from time to time include in any descriptions of individual matters herein certain quantitative information about the plaintiff’s claim against us as alleged in the plaintiff’s pleadings or other public filings. Although this information may provide insight into the potential magnitude of a matter, it does not represent our estimate of reasonably possible loss or our judgment as to any currently appropriate accrual related thereto.

Accordingly, as of the date of adoption, we reclassified a cumulative unrealized gain on such securities, net of tax, from AOCI to retained earnings. Reclassifications from AOCI to net income, excluding taxes, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were recorded in “Interest expense” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Our net investment hedges and cash flow hedges relate to our derivatives associated with RJ Bank’s business operations. See Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K and Note 5 for additional information on these derivatives.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION	SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION We have one share-based compensation plan for our employees, Board of Directors and non-employees (independent contractor financial advisors). Generally, we reissue our treasury shares under The Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Incentive Plan; however, we are also permitted to issue new shares. Annual share-based compensation awards are primarily issued during the fiscal first quarter of each year. Our share-based compensation accounting policies are described in Note 2 of our 2019 Form 10-K. Other information related to our share-based awards is presented in Note 21 of our 2019 Form 10-K. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, we granted approximately 100 thousand and 1.7 million RSUs, respectively, to employees and outside members of our Board of Directors with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $64.98 and $87.76, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, total compensation expense for RSUs granted to our employees and members of our Board of Directors was $22 million and $89 million, respectively, compared with $20 million and $81 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, there were $196 million of total pre-tax compensation costs not yet recognized (net of estimated forfeitures) related to RSUs granted to employees and members of our Board of Directors, including those granted during the nine months ended June 30, 2020. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.2 years.

REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS	9 Months Ended

Broker-Dealer, Net Capital Requirement, SEC Regulation [Abstract]
REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS	REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS RJF, as a bank holding company and financial holding company, RJ Bank, our broker-dealer subsidiaries and Raymond James Trust, N.A. (“RJ Trust”) are subject to capital requirements by various regulatory authorities. Capital levels of each entity are monitored to ensure compliance with our various regulatory capital requirements. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions, by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial results. As a bank holding company, RJF is subject to the risk-based capital requirements of the Fed. These risk-based capital requirements are expressed as capital ratios that compare measures of regulatory capital to risk-weighted assets, which involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory guidelines. RJF’s and RJ Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors. RJF and RJ Bank are required to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), Tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined), and under rules defined under the Basel III capital framework, Common equity Tier 1 capital (“CET1”) to risk-weighted assets. RJF and RJ Bank each calculate these ratios under the Basel III standardized approach in order to assess compliance with both regulatory requirements and their internal capital policies. In order to maintain our ability to take certain capital actions, including dividends and common equity repurchases, and to make bonus payments, we must hold a capital conservation buffer above our minimum risk-based capital requirements. As of June 30, 2020, both RJF’s and RJ Bank’s capital levels exceeded the capital conservation buffer requirement and were each categorized as “well-capitalized.” For further discussion of regulatory capital requirements applicable to certain of our businesses and subsidiaries, see Note 22 of our 2019 Form 10-K. To meet requirements for capital adequacy purposes or to be categorized as “well-capitalized,” RJF must maintain minimum CET1, Tier 1 capital, Total capital and Tier 1 leverage amounts and ratios as set forth in the following table. Actual Requirement for capital To be well-capitalized $ in millions Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio RJF as of June 30, 2020: CET1 $ 6,351 24.8 % $ 1,152 4.5 % $ 1,664 6.5 % Tier 1 capital $ 6,351 24.8 % $ 1,536 6.0 % $ 2,047 8.0 % Total capital $ 6,661 26.0 % $ 2,047 8.0 % $ 2,559 10.0 % Tier 1 leverage $ 6,351 14.5 % $ 1,749 4.0 % $ 2,187 5.0 % RJF as of September 30, 2019: CET1 $ 5,971 24.8 % $ 1,085 4.5 % $ 1,567 6.5 % Tier 1 capital $ 5,971 24.8 % $ 1,446 6.0 % $ 1,928 8.0 % Total capital $ 6,207 25.8 % $ 1,928 8.0 % $ 2,410 10.0 % Tier 1 leverage $ 5,971 15.7 % $ 1,525 4.0 % $ 1,906 5.0 % As of June 30, 2020, RJF’s Tier 1 capital ratio was unchanged and our Total capital ratio increased slightly compared to September 30, 2019, due to positive earnings, net of share repurchases and dividends, offset by the impacts of an increase in cash and cash equivalents segregated pursuant to regulations and growth in available-for-sale securities held at RJ Bank. RJF’s Tier 1 leverage ratio at June 30, 2020 decreased compared to September 30, 2019, due to the growth of average assets, primarily related to cash, cash and cash equivalents segregated pursuant to regulations and available-for-sale securities held at RJ Bank, partially offset by the aforementioned change in equity. To meet the requirements for capital adequacy or to be categorized as “well-capitalized,” RJ Bank must maintain CET1, Tier 1 capital, Total capital and Tier 1 leverage amounts and ratios as set forth in the following table. Actual Requirement for capital To be well-capitalized $ in millions Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio RJ Bank as of June 30, 2020: CET1 $ 2,247 12.8 % $ 790 4.5 % $ 1,141 6.5 % Tier 1 capital $ 2,247 12.8 % $ 1,053 6.0 % $ 1,404 8.0 % Total capital $ 2,468 14.1 % $ 1,404 8.0 % $ 1,755 10.0 % Tier 1 leverage $ 2,247 7.6 % $ 1,187 4.0 % $ 1,484 5.0 % RJ Bank as of September 30, 2019: CET1 $ 2,246 13.2 % $ 764 4.5 % $ 1,103 6.5 % Tier 1 capital $ 2,246 13.2 % $ 1,018 6.0 % $ 1,358 8.0 % Total capital $ 2,458 14.5 % $ 1,358 8.0 % $ 1,697 10.0 % Tier 1 leverage $ 2,246 8.8 % $ 1,021 4.0 % $ 1,276 5.0 % RJ Bank’s Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratios at June 30, 2020 decreased compared to September 30, 2019, due to dividends paid during the period exceeding earnings and growth in assets, primarily available-for-sale securities. RJ Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio at June 30, 2020 decreased compared to September 30, 2019, due to the growth in average assets, primarily related to cash, available-for-sale securities and bank loans, as well as the aforementioned change in equity. Certain of our broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the requirements of the Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

UPDATE OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNT_2

UPDATE OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2020
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of presentation	Basis of presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RJF and its consolidated subsidiaries that are generally controlled through a majority voting interest. We consolidate all of our 100% owned subsidiaries. In addition, we consolidate any variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which we are the primary beneficiary. Additional information on these VIEs is provided in Note 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2019 Form 10-K”) for the year ended September 30, 2019, as filed with the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in Note 8 of this Form 10-Q. When we do not have a controlling interest in an entity, but we exert significant influence over the entity, we apply the equity method of accounting. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Accounting estimates and assumptions	Accounting estimates and assumptions Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) but is not required for interim reporting purposes has been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The nature of our business is such that the results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our 2019 Form 10-K. To prepare condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, we must make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and could have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
Recent accounting developments	Recent accounting developments Accounting guidance recently adopted Lease accounting - In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance related to the accounting for leases (ASU 2016-02). The new guidance and subsequent amendments requires the recognition of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by lease agreements with terms greater than twelve months, regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. We adopted this guidance as of October 1, 2019 using the alternative modified retrospective approach, with no adjustments to prior periods presented. In addition, we elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which, among other things, allowed us to carry forward historical lease classification determinations. On the adoption date, we recognized right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”) and lease liabilities of $333 million and $357 million, respectively, in “Other assets” and “Other payables” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The ROU assets and lease liabilities were primarily related to operating leases. The adoption had no effect on our results of operations or cash flows. The impact of the adoption on our regulatory capital measures was insignificant. See Note 10 for further information. Derivatives and hedging (interest rate) - In October 2018, the FASB issued guidance amending Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) to add the overnight index swap rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) to the list of U.S. benchmark interest rates that are eligible during the early stages of the market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to SOFR (ASU 2018-16). The amendments to this guidance will provide adequate lead time for entities to prepare for changes to interest rate hedging strategies. We adopted the guidance October 1, 2019 and will apply the guidance prospectively for qualifying new or re-designated hedging relationships. The adoption did not impact our financial position or results of operations. Reference rate reform - In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as SOFR (ASU 2020-04). The guidance simplifies the accounting for modifying contracts (including those in hedging relationships) that refer to LIBOR and other interbank offered rates. In addition, the guidance allows for changes to the critical terms of a hedging relationship affected by reference rate reform without having to dedesignate the relationship. The guidance was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. We have elected certain expedients for cash flow hedges to assert that the hedged forecasted transaction remains probable, regardless of any expected modification in terms related to reference rate reform. The expedients elected did not impact our financial position or results of operations. Accounting guidance not yet adopted as of June 30, 2020 Credit losses - In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance related to the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments (ASU 2016-13). The amended guidance involves several aspects of the accounting for credit losses related to certain financial instruments including assets measured at amortized cost, available-for-sale debt securities and certain off-balance sheet commitments. The new guidance, and subsequent updates, broadens the information that an entity must consider in developing its estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of assets measured either collectively or individually to include historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, replacing the existing incurred credit loss model and other models with the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model. The new guidance expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating credit losses and requires new disclosures of the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination. This new guidance is first effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2020 and will be adopted under a modified retrospective approach. Although permitted, we do not plan to early adopt. Our cross-functional team continues with the implementation efforts. We are in the process of validating our credit loss models and establishing formal procedures and control documentation related to this new guidance. In addition, we are finalizing required disclosures and policies. We continue to evaluate the impact the adoption of this new guidance will have on our financial position and results of operations. The impact will ultimately depend on, among other things, our methodologies, management judgments, current and expected macroeconomic conditions, and the nature and characteristics of financial assets held by us on the date of adoption. Internal use software (cloud computing) - In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance on the accounting for implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements (ASU 2018-15). This guidance requires implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements to be deferred and recognized over the non-cancelable term of the cloud computing arrangements plus any optional renewal periods (1) that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the customer or (2) for which exercise of the renewal option is controlled by the cloud service provider. This amended guidance is first effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted, and may be adopted using either a prospective or retrospective approach. We plan to adopt this standard prospectively effective for annual periods beginning October 1, 2020. The impact of this amended guidance is dependent on implementation costs incurred subsequent to adoption. Consolidation (decision making fees) - In October 2018, the FASB issued guidance on how all entities evaluate decision-making fees under the VIE guidance (ASU 2018-17). Under the new guidance, to determine whether decision-making fees represent a variable interest, an entity considers indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportionate basis, rather than in their entirety. This guidance is first effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2020. Although permitted, we do not plan to early adopt. We are evaluating the impact the adoption of this new guidance will have on our financial position and results of operations.
Leases	We have operating leases for the premises we occupy in many of our U.S. and foreign locations, including our employee-based branch office operations. We also lease certain office and technology equipment. At inception, we determine if an arrangement to utilize a building or piece of equipment is a lease and, if so, the appropriate lease classification. If the arrangement is determined to be a lease, we recognize a ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability on our balance sheet. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. We have elected the practical expedient, where leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded as an ROU asset or lease liability. Our lease terms include any noncancelable periods and may reflect periods covered by options to extend or terminate when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise those options. As of June 30, 2020, the weighted-average remaining lease term for our operating leases was five years. We record our operating lease ROU assets at the amount of the lease liability plus any prepaid rent and initial direct costs, less any lease incentives and accrued rent. We record lease liabilities at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, which is discounted using our commencement date incremental borrowing rate. Our incremental borrowing rate considers the weighted-average yields on our senior notes payable, adjusted for collateralization and tenor. As of June 30, 2020, the weighted-average discount rate for our operating leases was 3.84%. Payments that vary because of changes in facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement date are considered variable and are expensed in the period incurred. For our real estate leases, we elected the practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease. We have not elected the practical expedient for our equipment leases and account for lease and non-lease components separately. As of June 30, 2020, ROU assets of $326 million and lease liabilities of $351 million were included as components of “Other assets” and “Other payables,” respectively, on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Lease expense Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term if the ROU asset has not been impaired or abandoned.

Significant Assumptions Used in Valuation of Level 3 Financial Instruments	The following tables present the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of certain of our private equity investments classified as level 3. These inputs represent those that a market participant would take into account when pricing these instruments. Weighted averages are calculated by weighting each input by the relative fair value of the related financial instrument. Certain investments are valued initially at transaction price and updated as other investment-specific events take place which indicate that a change in the carrying values of these investments is appropriate. Other investment-specific events include such events as our periodic review, significant transactions occur or new developments become known.
