The report covers the quarter ended March 31, 2016, and was signed on May 16, 2016, by Lisa Phelan, Vice President and Chief Compliance Officer.

Key Financial Metrics
As a Form 13F filing, this document discloses equity holdings rather than the company's own financial performance (revenue, profit, or cash flow). The following metrics relate to the portfolio managed by the firm:
- Total Portfolio Value: $36,113,467,000 (reported in thousands).
- Total Number of Holdings: 434 entries.
- Number of Included Managers: 2 (in addition to the primary filer).
Note: The filing text does not provide data on the firm's revenue, profit margins, debt, or liquidity, as these are not required in a 13F-HR.
Material Changes
The filing text does not provide comparative data for the prior period (December 31, 2015) to calculate material changes in portfolio value or composition. The document lists the current holdings but does not explicitly detail additions or deletions relative to the previous quarter.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
This form is a regulatory disclosure of holdings and does not contain management commentary, forward-looking guidance, or specific risk factors regarding the firm's operations. The standard SEC disclaimer notes that the Commission has not reviewed the information for accuracy or completeness.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the total portfolio value of approximately $36.1 billion against the firm's 10-Q or 10-K filings for the same period to assess asset growth.
- Confirm the specific equity positions within the 434 reported entries to understand sector concentration.
- Review the filings of the two other included managers (Cohen & Steers Capital Management Inc. and Cohen & Steers UK Ltd.) to ensure a complete view of the firm's total managed assets.
- Check subsequent 13F filings to track changes in the top holdings from the March 31, 2016 period.
