#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

### To the Member of Siguler Guff Global Markets, LLC

#### Opinion on the Financial Statement

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Siguler Guff Global Markets, LLC (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

#### Basis for Opinion

This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statement based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2013 (such date takes into account the acquisition of Rotenberg Meril Solomon Bertiger & Guttilla, P.C., by Marcum LLP effective February 1, 2022).

# 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

### Income taxes

As a wholly-owned limited liability company, the Company is not subject to Federal, state or local income taxes. All items of income, expense, gains and losses are reportable by the member for tax purposes. The Company is considered to be a disregarded entity and does not file income tax returns in any jurisdiction.

# Uncertain tax positions

The Company follows the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC 740, Income Taxes. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2020. No accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2022 or accrued for as of December 31, 2022.

Generally, federal, state and local authorities may examine the Company's member's tax returns for three years from the date of filing; consequently, the respective tax returns for the years prior to 2019 are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities.

# 3. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Company is subject to the uniform net capital requirements of Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act, as amended, which requires the Company to maintain, at all times, sufficient liquid assets to cover indebtedness. In accordance with the Rule, the Company is required to maintain defined minimum net capital of the greater of \$5,000 or 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness.

At December 31, 2022, the Company had net capital, as defined, of \$60,129, which exceeded the required minimum net capital of \$5,000 by \$55,129. Aggregate indebtedness at December 31, 2022 totaled \$29,341. The Company's percentage of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 48.80%.

{8}------------------------------------------------

# 4. RELATED PARTIES TRANSACTIONS

Pursuant to a cost sharing agreement with Siguler Guff, the Company is allocated expenses for rent, compensation, and general operating expenses paid for by Siguler Guff. The Company participates in a variety of financial and administrative transactions with related parties and may be financially dependent on such parties. Because of these relationships, it is possible that the terms of these transactions are not the same as those that would result from transactions among wholly unrelated parties.

Siguler Guff has committed to fully fund the Company, now and in the future, and to deposit additional funds should it become necessary for the Company to remain in net capital compliance.

# 5. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management of the Company has evaluated events and transactions that may have occurred since December 31, 2022 through the date the financial statements were issued. Management determined that there are no other material events that would require disclosures in the Company's financial statements.
