1. Liquid amount on exchange (like 3-4%) - its a major exchange
2. Desktop wallets for other 3-4% of liquidity (no multi sig. management direct access)
3. rest is on 4 different hw wallets (ledger) in 4 different bank vaults.
4. private key backup done with cryptosteel (love those things) in different banks (key never complete on 1 slide).
