Performance fees are based on the performance of the individual vehicles or products, and may be zero or negative in a particular period if, for example, large losses occur, which can potentially result in no performance fees or the reversal of previously accrued performance fees. Joint ventures include DaVinciRe, Top Layer Re, Vermeer and certain entities investing in Langhorne Holdings LLC. Managed funds include Upsilon Fund and Medici. Structured reinsurance products and other includes certain reinsurance contracts and certain other vehicles through which we transfer risk to capital. In 2021, total fee income earned through third-party capital management activities decreased $16.7 million, to $128.5 million, as compared to $145.2 million in 2020, primarily driven by lower performance fee income due to the impact of the 2021 Weather-Related Large Losses on our joint ventures and managed funds, partially offset by higher favorable development on prior year losses in DaVinci. In 2020, total fee income earned through third-party capital management activities increased $31.0 million, to $145.2 million, compared to $114.2 million in 2019, driven by an increase in performance fee income due to favorable development on prior accident years, which benefited certain of the Company’s managed funds, and an increase in management fee income due to an increase in the dollar value of third-party capital being managed by the Company. The fees earned through our third-party capital management activities are principally recorded through redeemable noncontrolling interest, or as an increase to underwriting income (reduction to underwriting loss), through a decrease in operating expenses or acquisition expenses, as detailed in the table below.
