Credit Suisse
Our strategy builds on Credit Suisse’s core strengths: its position as a leading global wealth manager, its specialist investment banking capabilities and its strong presence in our home market of Switzerland. We seek to follow a balanced approach to wealth management, aiming to capitalize on both the large pool of wealth within mature markets as well as the significant growth in wealth in Asia Pacific and other emerging markets. Founded in 1856, we today have a global reach with operations in about 50 countries and 46,230 employees from over 150 different nations. Our broad footprint helps us to generate a geographically balanced stream of revenues and net new assets and allows us to capture growth opportunities around the world. We serve our clients through three regionally focused divisions: Swiss Universal Bank, International Wealth Management and Asia Pacific. These regional businesses are supported by two other divisions specializing in investment banking capabilities: Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets. The Strategic Resolution Unit consolidates the remaining portfolios from the former non-strategic units plus additional businesses and positions that do not fit with our strategic direction. Our business divisions cooperate closely to provide holistic financial solutions, including innovative products and specially tailored advice.
Swiss Universal Bank

Strategic Resolution Unit
The Strategic Resolution Unit was created to facilitate the immediate right-sizing of our business divisions from a capital perspective and includes remaining portfolios from former non-strategic units plus transfers of additional exposures from the business divisions. The unit’s primary focus is on facilitating the rapid wind-down of capital usage and costs to reduce the negative impact on the Group’s performance. Repositioned as a separate division, this provides clearer accountability, governance and reporting.

Global economic growth appeared to remain robust in 2Q17, while inflation rates receded markedly. Global equity markets ended the quarter higher and European bank stocks in particular performed well. Major government bond yields increased significantly in the second half of June 2017 and the US dollar depreciated against most major currencies.
After soft gross domestic product growth in 1Q17, US economic growth likely accelerated slightly in 2Q17. Nevertheless, core inflation has fallen markedly since March 2017, contrasting with the strength of the US labor market. Eurozone data on the other hand remained buoyant, with unemployment continuing to decline and core inflation ticking up. Among emerging markets, Chinese activity growth appears to have softened somewhat compared to 1Q17, while economic recovery appeared to continue in Brazil and Russia. Headline inflation declined substantially in most economies as the positive base effects from energy prices receded.
The US Federal Reserve (Fed) again raised the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 basis points at its meeting in mid-June, bringing it to 1.00-1.25%, and announced plans to reduce its balance sheet in the future. The European Central Bank (ECB) left policy rates unchanged but changed its forward guidance by no longer referring to the possibility of future rate cuts. The Swiss National Bank (SNB) and the Bank of England (BoE) also left monetary policy unchanged. Among major emerging markets, policy rates were cut twice in both Russia and Brazil during the quarter.
During 2Q17, global equities showed further positive momentum (refer to the charts under “Equity markets”), due to positive revisions to earnings estimates. Among developed markets, Swiss and Japanese equities outperformed global equity markets while Australian and Canadian equities suffered from a sell-off in commodities markets. Emerging market equities again outperformed developed markets as they benefited from further declines in US Treasury 10-year yields and the US dollar, with both assets reaching their lowest levels of the year by the end of 2Q17. As in 1Q17, oil and commodity exporting emerging markets such as Russia and the Middle East underperformed due to the consolidation in oil and commodity prices. Among sectors, healthcare, industrials and IT were the top performers while the energy sector was the worst underperformer with the telecom sector also lagging. During 2Q17, equity market volatility, as measured by the Chicago Board Options Exchange Market Volatility Index (VIX), remained at multi-year lows. The Credit Suisse Hedge Fund Index increased 0.8% in 2Q17.
In fixed income, major long-dated government bond yields drifted lower in the quarter until the middle of June 2017. This decline was mainly due to lower inflation expectations, with core inflation data unexpectedly declining and energy prices dropping. In the second part of June 2017, major longer-dated government bond yields increased due to more restrictive central bank monetary policy communication and better than-expected German inflation data (refer to the charts under “Yield curves”). In credit markets, spreads continued to tighten in 2Q17 (refer to the charts under “Credit spreads”), though the pace of the narrowing slowed, especially for emerging market issuers. Prices for global investment grade corporate bonds increased in line with global high yield bonds. In US dollar terms, emerging market local currency bonds remained one of the best fixed income performing asset classes in 2Q17.
4
The US dollar depreciated against most major currencies in 2Q17 as US economic and in particular inflation data weakened more than expected. The euro was one of the strongest currencies, positively impacted by reduced political concerns about the Eurozone following the outcome of the French presidential election and strong economic data. In this context, the euro also appreciated against the Swiss franc. The Japanese yen decreased slightly against the US dollar. In emerging markets, the Brazilian real was among the weakest currencies amid renewed political concerns.
The Credit Suisse Commodities Benchmark slipped 5.5% in 2Q17, primarily due to weak energy markets. Energy prices declined during 2Q17 amid resilient supply. Rising US real interest rates weighed on precious metals and industrial metals were negatively impacted by moderating industrial activity in China.

European bank stocks generally outperformed global stocks in 2Q17 and ended the quarter 5% higher. North American bank stocks also posted positive returns similar to the global stock market (refer to the charts under “Equity markets”).
In private banking, market conditions remained challenging in light of political and economic uncertainty and the persistence of the low interest rate environment. The sector continues to face significant structural pressure as it adapts to industry-specific regulatory changes, tax regularization and anti-money laundering initiatives.
In investment banking, equity trading volumes increased globally and in Europe compared to 1Q17 and to 2Q16. Announced and completed mergers and acquisitions (M&A) increased globally compared to 1Q17 and decreased compared to 2Q16. In Europe, announced and completed M&A increased compared to 1Q17 and 2Q16. Global equity underwriting volumes were lower compared to 1Q17 and higher compared to 2Q16. European equity underwriting volumes were higher compared to 1Q17 and 2Q16. Global and European debt underwriting volumes were lower compared to 1Q17. Compared to 2Q16, global debt underwriting was lower and European debt underwriting was higher. Compared to 1Q17, total US fixed income trading volumes were lower, mainly driven by a decrease in treasuries and corporate volumes. Compared to 2Q16, total US fixed income trading volumes were higher, mainly driven by an increase in treasuries and federal agency volumes.

In 2Q17, Credit Suisse reported net income attributable to shareholders of CHF 303 million compared to CHF 596 million in 1Q17 and CHF 170 million in 2Q16.
Net revenues of CHF 5,205 million decreased 6% compared to 1Q17, primarily reflecting lower net revenues in Corporate Center, Investment Banking & Capital Markets, Global Markets and the Strategic Resolution Unit, partially offset by increases in Swiss Universal Bank and International Wealth Management. The decrease in Investment Banking & Capital Markets reflected lower revenues from advisory and debt underwriting, partially offset by higher revenues from equity underwriting. The decrease in Global Markets reflected less favorable market conditions across its Solutions businesses and a slowdown in industry-wide debt issuance activity. The movement in the Strategic Resolution Unit reflected higher negative valuation adjustments and lower fee-based revenues as a result of accelerated business exits, both in its legacy investment banking portfolio. The increase in Swiss Universal Bank primarily reflected higher transaction-based revenues. The increase in International Wealth Management primarily reflected higher transaction- and performance-based revenues, higher net interest income and higher recurring commissions and fees.
Net revenues increased 2% compared to 2Q16, primarily reflecting higher net revenues in International Wealth Management and Swiss Universal Bank and decreased negative net revenues in the Strategic Resolution Unit, partially offset by lower net revenues in Global Markets and Asia Pacific. The increase in International Wealth Management primarily reflected higher net interest income, higher recurring commissions and fees and higher transaction- and performance-based revenues. The increase in Swiss Universal Bank reflected higher net interest income and higher transaction-based revenues. The improvement in the Strategic Resolution Unit’s negative net revenues was primarily driven by lower negative valuation adjustments and lower overall funding costs, partially offset by a reduction in fee-based revenues. Net revenues in Global Markets decreased as low volatility adversely impacted trading revenues. The decrease in Asia Pacific was driven by significantly lower revenues in its Markets business across equity and fixed income sales and trading revenues, partially offset by higher revenues in its Wealth Management & Connected business.
Provision for credit losses of CHF 82 million primarily related to a net provision for credit losses of CHF 36 million in Swiss Universal Bank, CHF 13 million in Investment Banking & Capital Markets, CHF 13 million in the Strategic Resolution Unit and CHF 12 million in Global Markets.
Total operating expenses of CHF 4,541 million decreased 6% compared to 1Q17, reflecting a 4% decrease in compensation and benefits, a 4% decrease in general and administrative expenses and a 50% decrease in restructuring expenses. In 2Q17, we incurred CHF 69 million of restructuring expenses in connection with the implementation of our strategy, of which CHF 50 million were related to compensation and benefits.
Total operating expenses decreased 8% compared to 2Q16, reflecting a 7% decrease in compensation and benefits and a 10% decrease in general and administrative expenses, mainly relating to lower professional fees.
Income tax expense of CHF 276 million recorded in 2Q17 mainly reflected the impact of the geographical mix of results and the impact from shortfall tax charges on share-based compensation, partially offset by the impact of a re-assessment of Swiss deferred tax balances and a release of tax contingency accruals. Overall, net deferred tax assets decreased CHF 338 million to CHF 7,311 million, mainly driven by earnings, the shortfall tax charges and a foreign exchange impact, partially offset by the re-assessment of Swiss deferred tax balances. Deferred tax assets on net operating losses increased CHF 244 million to CHF 2,787 million during 2Q17. The Credit Suisse effective tax rate was 47.4% in 2Q17, compared to 11.6% in 1Q17. The 2Q17 effective tax rate was negatively impacted by an additional tax charge of CHF 95 million arising from the shortfall tax charges. The effective tax rate excluding the shortfall tax charges (net of valuation allowances) was 33.8%.

On May 18, 2017, the Group held an Extraordinary General Meeting at which shareholders approved a capital increase by way of a rights offering. By the end of the rights exercise period on June 7, 2017, 99.2% of the rights had been exercised and 390,206,406 newly issued shares were subscribed. The remaining 3,026,166 newly issued shares that were not subscribed were sold in the market. The capital increase resulted in 393,232,572 newly issued shares and net proceeds for the Group of CHF 4.1 billion.
In 2Q17, Core Results net revenues of CHF 5,479 million decreased 5% compared to 1Q17, primarily reflecting lower net revenues in Corporate Center, Investment Banking & Capital Markets and Global Markets partially offset by increases in Swiss Universal Bank and International Wealth Management. Provision for credit losses was CHF 69 million, primarily reflecting net provisions of CHF 36 million in Swiss Universal Bank, CHF 13 million in Investment Banking & Capital Markets and CHF 12 million in Global Markets. Total operating expenses of CHF 4,265 million decreased 5% compared to 1Q17, reflecting a 5% decrease in compensation and benefits, a slight decrease in general and administrative expenses and a decrease in restructuring expenses. Compared to 1Q17, restructuring expenses of CHF 58 million decreased 55%, primarily in Swiss Universal Bank and International Wealth Management.
Core Results net revenues were stable compared to 2Q16, primarily reflecting higher net revenues in International Wealth Management and Swiss Universal Bank, partially offset by a decrease in Global Markets and Asia Pacific. Total operating expenses decreased 5% compared to 2Q16, reflecting a 5% decrease in compensation and benefits and a 7% decrease in general and administrative expenses, mainly relating to professional services fees.

As of the end of 2Q17, our Bank for International Settlements (BIS) common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio was 13.3%. Our risk-weighted assets (RWA) were CHF 259.3 billion, both on a look-through basis.
The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA (FINMA) has requested an add-on to our operational risk exposure primarily in respect of our residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) settlements and which would be effective from 3Q17. Separately, Credit Suisse has approached FINMA with a request to review the appropriateness of the level of the operational risk RWA in the Strategic Resolution Unit given the progress in reducing the size of the division over the last eighteen months, with the aim of aligning reductions to the accelerated closure of the Strategic Resolution Unit by the end of 2018. This is still under discussion with FINMA and we would expect some net increase in operational risk capital usage in 3Q17 depending on the ultimate outcome and phasing of these changes.

Format of presentation
In managing our business, revenues are evaluated in the aggregate, including an assessment of trading gains and losses and the related interest income and expense from financing and hedging positions. For this reason, specific individual revenue categories in isolation may not be indicative of performance.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform to the current presentation.
Return on regulatory capital
Credit Suisse measures firm-wide returns against total shareholders’ equity and tangible shareholders’ equity. In addition, it also measures the efficiency of the firm and its divisions with regard to the usage of capital as determined by the minimum requirements set by regulators. This regulatory capital is calculated as the worst of 10% of risk-weighted assets and 3.5% of the leverage exposure. Return on regulatory capital is calculated using income/(loss) after tax and assumes a tax rate of 30% and capital allocated based on the worst of 10% of average risk-weighted assets and 3.5% of average leverage exposure. These percentages are used in the calculation in order to reflect the 2019 fully phased in Swiss regulatory minimum requirements for Basel III CET1 capital and leverage ratio. For Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets, return on regulatory capital is based on US dollar denominated numbers.
Fair valuations
Fair value can be a relevant measurement for financial instruments when it aligns the accounting for these instruments with how we manage our business. The levels of the fair value hierarchy as defined by the relevant accounting guidance are not a measurement of economic risk, but rather an indication of the observability of prices or valuation inputs.
> Refer to “Note 1 – Summary of significant accounting policies” and “Note 28 – Financial instruments” in III – Condensed consolidated financial statements – unaudited for further information.

Models were used to value financial instruments for which no prices are available and which have little or no observable inputs (level 3). Models are developed internally and are reviewed by functions independent of the front office to ensure they are appropriate for current market conditions. The models require subjective assessment and varying degrees of judgment depending on liquidity, concentration, pricing assumptions and risks affecting the specific instrument. The models consider observable and unobservable parameters in calculating the value of these products, including certain indices relating to these products. Consideration of these indices is more significant in periods of lower market activity.
As of the end of 2Q17, 38% and 25% of our total assets and total liabilities, respectively, were measured at fair value.
The majority of our level 3 assets are recorded in our investment banking businesses. Total assets at fair value recorded as level 3 decreased CHF 2.0 billion to CHF 17.6 billion as of the end of 2Q17, primarily reflecting net sales, mainly in trading assets and loans, and a foreign exchange translation impact, mainly in trading assets and loans.
As of the end of 2Q17, our level 3 assets comprised 2% of total assets and 6% of total assets measured at fair value, unchanged from 1Q17.
We believe that the range of any valuation uncertainty, in the aggregate, would not be material to our financial condition; however, it may be material to our operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.
The global service company initiative has made significant progress in 2Q17 in evolving the legal entity structure of the bank and ensuring continued provision of critical services for the Group in case of a resolution event. Credit Suisse Services AG (Swiss Service Company) became operational in July 2017 with the transfer of employees, net assets and our Business Delivery Center in Poland from Credit Suisse AG. A branch of the Swiss Service Company has been registered in the UK as Credit Suisse Services AG, London Branch, which became operational in June 2017.
Government leaders and regulators continued to focus on reform of the financial services industry, including capital, leverage and liquidity requirements, changes in compensation practices and systemic risk.
On June 9, 2017, the Federal Council initiated the consultation proceeding on the proposed Federal Act on Calculation of the Participation Deduction for “Too Big to Fail” Instruments. The consultation will last until the end of September 2017. If enacted, the legislation will permit systemically important banks to carve-out interest paid in respect of such instruments for purposes of calculating tax exempt net participation income and hereby remedy the effect of increased corporate income taxes from higher interest allocations as a consequence of systemically important banks being required to issue such instruments through the holding company.
On June 16, 2017, the Federal Council submitted draft legislation to the Swiss Parliament on the automatic exchange of financial account information (AEOI) with another 41 states and territories (having introduced the AEOI earlier this year with an initial 38 states and territories, including all EU member states, for which the data exchange starts in 2018). Upon approval, the Federal Council will be authorized to implement the AEOI with these additional states and territories. If implemented in 2018, as currently intended, the first set of data would be exchanged in late 2019. Before the first data is exchanged, the legislation requires the Federal Council to verify and issue a report, assessing whether these states and territories meet certain standards, in particular, concerning confidentiality and data security.
On July 21, 2017, the US banking agencies responsible for implementing the Volcker Rule released guidance providing temporary relief with respect to “foreign excluded funds” that are controlled by a foreign bank and thus could be subjected to the Volcker Rule’s proprietary trading and covered funds restrictions. The guidance provides that for one year (until July 21, 2018), the agencies will not take action with respect to such foreign excluded fund if the fund satisfies certain criteria (including that the fund is established and operated outside of the US as part of a bona fide asset management business, is not offered to US investors and that the foreign bank’s investment and/or sponsorship of the fund occurs solely outside of the US).

In 2Q17, we reported income before taxes of CHF 502 million and net revenues of CHF 1,405 million. Income before taxes was 24% and 11% higher compared to 1Q17 and 2Q16, respectively.
2Q17 results
In 2Q17, we reported income before taxes of CHF 502 million and net revenues of CHF 1,405 million. Compared to 1Q17, net revenues were 4% higher, driven by higher transaction-based revenues whereas net interest income and recurring commissions and fees were stable. Provision for credit losses was CHF 36 million compared to CHF 10 million in 1Q17, partially offset by gains from related credit hedges recorded in other revenues. Total operating expenses were 8% lower compared to 1Q17, primarily reflecting lower restructuring expenses and general and administrative expenses, partially offset by slightly higher compensation and benefits.
Compared to 2Q16, net revenues were 5% higher, with higher net interest income and higher transaction-based revenues while recurring commissions and fees were stable. Provision for credit losses was CHF 36 million compared to CHF 9 million in 2Q16. Total operating expenses were stable compared to 2Q16, reflecting lower compensation and benefits and restructuring expenses, offset by higher general and administrative expenses and commission expenses.
Adjusted income before taxes of CHF 504 million was 4% and 10% higher compared to 1Q17 and 2Q16, respectively.
Capital and leverage metrics
As of the end of 2Q17, we reported risk-weighted assets of CHF 64.4 billion, slightly lower compared to the end of 1Q17. An increase from methodology and policy changes reflecting the phase-in of the Swiss mortgage multipliers was more than offset by movements in risk levels reflecting the maturity of certain large loan facilities and favorable interest rate movements on our derivatives portfolio. Leverage exposure was CHF 260.5 billion, reflecting an increase of CHF 3.1 billion compared to the end of 1Q17, driven by increased high-quality liquid assets (HQLA), reflecting growth in our deposit base.

Private clients
Income before taxes of CHF 222 million was 38% higher compared to 1Q17, primarily reflecting decreased total operating expenses and slightly higher net revenues. Compared to 2Q16, income before taxes was slightly lower, primarily reflecting higher provision for credit losses with stable total operating expenses and stable net revenues. Adjusted income before taxes of CHF 222 million was 7% higher compared to 1Q17 and was slightly lower compared to 2Q16.
Net revenues
Compared to 1Q17, net revenues of CHF 733 million were slightly higher, primarily due to higher transaction-based revenues and slightly higher recurring commissions and fees while net interest income was stable. Transaction-based revenues of CHF 123 million were 23% higher, driven by a gain from the sale of an investment, higher equity participations income which included a regular dividend from our ownership interest in SIX Group AG and increased fees from foreign exchange client business. Recurring commissions and fees of CHF 202 million were slightly higher, reflecting higher investment advisory fees and slightly higher discretionary mandate management fees, partially offset by lower investment product management fees and lower banking services fees. Net interest income of CHF 408 million was stable with slightly higher deposit margins on higher average deposit volumes and stable loan margins on stable average loan volumes.
Compared to 2Q16, net revenues were stable, with slightly higher transaction-based revenues and stable net interest income and recurring commissions and fees. Transaction-based revenues were slightly higher, reflecting increased client activity and also included the gain from the sale of an investment, offset by the absence of proceeds from the sale of our equity stake in Visa Europe Ltd. to Visa Inc. in 2Q16. Net interest income was stable with higher deposit margins on higher average deposit volumes and stable loan margins on slightly higher average loan volumes.
Provision for credit losses
The Private Clients loan portfolio is substantially comprised of residential mortgages in Switzerland and loans collateralized by securities and, to a lesser extent, consumer finance loans.
In 2Q17, Private Clients recorded provision for credit losses of CHF 11 million compared to CHF 12 million in 1Q17 and CHF 8 million in 2Q16. The provision was primarily related to our consumer finance business.

Income before taxes of CHF 196 million decreased slightly compared to 1Q17, primarily reflecting lower net revenues, largely offset by lower total operating expenses and lower provision for credit losses. Lower net revenues primarily reflected lower advisory, underwriting and financing revenues. Compared to 2Q16, income before taxes increased 78%, primarily from higher net revenues across both Private Banking and advisory, underwriting and financing, partially offset by higher total operating expenses. Adjusted income before taxes of CHF 198 million decreased slightly compared to 1Q17 and increased 78% compared to 2Q16.
Net revenues
Net revenues of CHF 559 million decreased 5% compared to 1Q17, mainly driven by lower advisory, underwriting and financing revenues. Advisory, underwriting and financing revenues decreased 13% to CHF 154 million, primarily due to a decrease in fees from M&A transactions and debt underwriting, partially offset by higher financing revenues and increased fees from equity underwriting. Net interest income decreased 4% to CHF 161 million. Transaction-based revenues decreased slightly to CHF 149 million, mainly reflecting lower fees from foreign exchange client business. Recurring commissions and fees increased 4% to CHF 94 million, primarily due to higher investment product management fees.

Compared to 2Q16, net revenues increased 23%, mainly driven by higher advisory, underwriting and financing revenues, increased transaction-based revenues, higher net interest income and higher recurring commission and fees. Advisory, underwriting and financing revenues increased 31%, mainly due to higher financing and debt underwriting revenues, partially offset by lower advisory fees from M&A transactions. Financing revenues in 2Q17 included a positive net fair value impact of CHF 15 million on a portfolio of impaired loans in recovery management and additional revenues related to the recovery of interest payments on a portfolio of previously impaired loans. Transaction-based revenues increased 27%, primarily reflecting higher brokerage and product issuing fees and higher corporate advisory fees arising from integrated solutions. Net interest income increased 13%, with lower deposit and loan margins on higher average deposit and loans volumes. Recurring commissions and fees increased 22%, mainly due to higher investment product management, security account and custody services, discretionary mandate management and wealth structuring solutions fees.

Compensation and benefits decreased 9% to CHF 244 million, primarily driven by lower discretionary compensation expenses and lower deferred compensation expenses from prior-year awards. General and administrative expenses increased 4% to CHF 103 million, mainly due to higher expenses for IT infrastructure and support and our risk management function. Adjusted total operating expenses of CHF 362 million decreased 5% compared to 1Q17.
Compared to 2Q16, total operating expenses increased 6%, mainly reflecting higher compensation and benefits and higher commission expenses.

Loss before taxes of CHF 8 million in 2Q17 decreased 85% compared to the loss before taxes of CHF 54 million in 1Q17, mainly due to lower total operating expenses. The loss before taxes in 2Q17 compared to income before taxes of CHF 96 million in 2Q16. The related decrease of CHF 104 million primarily reflected lower net revenues, partially offset by lower total operating expenses. Adjusted income before taxes of CHF 1 million in 2Q17 compared to an adjusted loss before taxes of CHF 39 million in 1Q17 and adjusted income before taxes of CHF 105 million in 2Q16.
Net revenues
Net revenues of CHF 289 million were stable compared to 1Q17, reflecting lower equity sales and trading revenues, offset by higher fixed income sales and trading revenues. Equity sales and trading revenues decreased 20% to CHF 188 million, mainly due to lower revenues from equity derivatives reflecting lower client activity, partially offset by higher revenues from prime services. Fixed income sales and trading revenues increased 74% to CHF 101 million, mainly due to higher revenues from rates and foreign exchange products, partially offset by lower revenues from credit products. Revenues from rates products increased mainly in emerging markets rates products and revenues from foreign exchange products benefited from favorable markets.
Compared to 2Q16, net revenues decreased 37%, due to lower equity and fixed income sales and trading revenues. Equity sales and trading revenues decreased 40%, mainly due to the absence of the positive impact of CHF 65 million in 2Q16 in derivatives resulting from a recalibration of the valuation model for certain hybrid instruments, lower revenues from equity derivatives reflecting lower client activity and lower market volatility. Fixed income sales and trading revenues decreased 29%, mainly driven by lower revenues from developed markets rates products, partially offset by higher revenues from emerging markets rates and credit products.

2Q17 results
In 2Q17, we reported income before taxes of CHF 257 million and net revenues of CHF 1,517 million.

Equities
In 2Q17, equities revenues of CHF 471 million increased slightly compared to 1Q17, as higher prime services revenues and resilient issuance activity were partially offset by lower trading revenues. Prime services revenues increased, reflecting higher prime brokerage and client financing revenues due to the European dividend season. These gains in revenues were partially offset by lower cash equities trading performance primarily reflecting lower trading volumes in the US and Latin America.
Compared to 2Q16, equities revenues increased 5%. Cash equities revenues were resilient, as a low volatility environment benefited primary issuance, but adversely impacted trading activity. Prime services results were stable and reflected continued growth in client balances.
Systematic market making
Our systematic market making business was transitioned to International Wealth Management in 1Q17, in line with Credit Suisse’s ongoing strategy to develop new and differentiated product offerings. Following this transition, Global Markets continues to participate as an investor in the business.
Compared to 1Q17, systematic market making revenues declined reflecting a continued low volatility environment.
Compared to 2Q16, systematic market making revenues decreased significantly, largely due to the transition to International Wealth Management and challenging operating conditions in that business. In addition, 2Q16 systematic market making performance benefited from increased volatility surrounding the UK referendum on EU membership.
Credit
In 2Q17, credit revenues of CHF 900 million decreased 2% compared to a strong 1Q17, reflecting a seasonal decrease in client activity. Revenues from global credit products decreased, primarily driven by a slowdown in industry-wide volumes, particularly in investment grade compared to robust 1Q17 primary issuance activity. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in securitized products revenues due to higher asset finance and non-agency trading revenues.
37
Compared to a strong 2Q16, credit revenues increased 21%, primarily due to a substantial increase in securitized products revenues reflecting broad-based strength across all products, particularly in non-agency and asset finance results. This was partially offset by lower global credit products revenues reflecting a slowdown in issuance activity, particularly in investment grade, and tighter credit spreads and sustained low levels of volatility which resulted in reduced trading activity.
Solutions
In 2Q17, solutions revenues of CHF 195 million decreased 26% compared to 1Q17, primarily due to challenging market conditions. Emerging markets revenues declined, primarily driven by lower trading activity in Brazil due to political uncertainty. Global macro products revenues decreased, reflecting reduced client activity in our rates business, partially offset by improved foreign exchange results. In addition, we had lower equity derivatives results as persistently low levels of volatility led to reduced client activity, particularly in structured derivatives.
Compared to 2Q16, solutions revenues decreased 52%, largely due to higher client trading activity seen in 2Q16 in the days immediately following the UK referendum. Global macro products revenues declined, due to significantly lower client activity driven by low US interest rate volatility. Equity derivatives revenues declined due to reduced client activity in corporate and flow derivatives reflecting historically low levels of volatility. In addition, emerging markets revenues declined compared to a strong 2Q16, reflecting lower trading activity in Brazil due to political uncertainty.
Provision for credit losses
Global markets recorded a provision for credit losses of CHF 12 million relating to adverse developments on non-fair valued loans in 2Q17. This compares to a provision for credit losses of CHF 5 million in 1Q17 and a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 17 million in 2Q16.
Total operating expenses
In 2Q17, total operating expenses of CHF 1,248 million decreased 3% compared to 1Q17. Lower compensation and benefits were partially offset by slightly higher general and administrative expenses and higher restructuring costs. During 2Q17, we incurred restructuring costs of CHF 32 million. The decrease in compensation and benefits was primarily driven by lower discretionary compensation expenses and lower deferred compensation expenses from prior-year awards. General and administrative expenses were slightly higher, reflecting an increase in allocated corporate function costs. Adjusted total operating expenses decreased 4%.
Compared to 2Q16, total operating expenses decreased 16%, reflecting lower costs across compensation and benefits, allocated corporate function and restructuring costs. The decrease in compensation and benefits was driven by lower discretionary compensation expenses, deferred compensation expenses from prior-year awards and salary expenses. General and administrative expenses declined due to reduced allocated corporate function costs and lower professional services fees. Adjusted total operating expenses decreased 16%.

In 2Q17, Investment Banking & Capital Markets reported income before taxes of CHF 78 million and net revenues of CHF 511 million. Net revenues decreased 6% compared to 2Q16.
2Q17 results
In 2Q17, we reported income before taxes of CHF 78 million, a decrease of 48% compared to 1Q17. Net revenues of CHF 511 million decreased 16% compared to 1Q17, due to lower revenues from advisory and debt underwriting, partially offset by higher revenues from equity underwriting. Compared to 1Q17, revenues from advisory and other fees decreased 24% and debt underwriting revenues decreased 12%, while equity underwriting revenues increased 2%. Total operating expenses of CHF 420 million decreased 7%, driven by lower compensation and benefits.
Compared to 2Q16, our reported income before taxes decreased 42% in 2Q17, driven by lower revenues. Net revenues decreased 6%. Debt underwriting revenues decreased 11%, revenues from advisory and other fees decreased 13% while equity underwriting revenues increased 11%. Total operating expenses of CHF 420 million increased 3%.
Capital and leverage metrics
As of the end of 2Q17, risk-weighted assets were USD 19.5 billion, an increase of USD 0.9 billion compared to the end of 1Q17. The increase was driven primarily by higher activity in debt underwriting, reflecting growth in the corporate bank and debt capital markets. Leverage exposure was USD 45.0 billion, an increase of USD 1.0 billion compared to the end of 1Q17, reflecting an increase in high-quality liquid assets and increased debt capital markets activity.

Advisory and other fees
In 2Q17, revenues from advisory and other fees of CHF 166 million decreased 24% compared to 1Q17, reflecting lower revenues from completed M&A transactions.
Revenues decreased 13% compared to 2Q16, slightly more than the industry-wide decline in the overall M&A fee pool.
Debt underwriting
In 2Q17, debt underwriting revenues of CHF 257 million decreased 12% compared to 1Q17, driven by lower leveraged finance and investment grade underwriting revenues, reflecting lower refinancing activity, partially offset by higher derivatives financing revenues.
Compared to 2Q16, revenues decreased 11%, driven by lower investment grade underwriting, including acquisition financing, and decreased derivatives financing revenues, partially offset by higher leveraged finance revenues.
Equity underwriting
In 2Q17, revenues from equity underwriting of CHF 105 million increased 2% compared to 1Q17, primarily driven by higher revenues from rights offerings.
Compared to 2Q16, revenues increased 11%, primarily driven by higher revenues from IPOs and rights offerings, partially offset by lower equity derivatives.
Provision for credit losses
In 2Q17, we recorded a provision for credit losses of CHF 13 million relating to a single counterparty and adverse developments on non-fair valued loans in our corporate lending portfolio, compared to CHF 6 million recorded in 1Q17. There was no provision for credit losses in 2Q16.
40
Total operating expenses
Total operating expenses of CHF 420 million decreased 7% compared to 1Q17, driven by lower compensation and benefits. Compensation and benefits of CHF 303 million decreased 13%, reflecting lower deferred compensation expenses and a lower discretionary compensation accrual. General and administrative expenses of CHF 104 million increased 3%, mainly due to higher allocated corporate function costs.
Compared to 2Q16, total operating expenses increased 3%, driven by higher restructuring expenses and an increase in allocated corporate function costs.
Global advisory and underwriting revenues
The Group’s global advisory and underwriting business operates across multiple business divisions that work in close collaboration with each other to generate these revenues. In order to reflect the global performance and capabilities of this business and for enhanced comparability versus its peers, the following table aggregates total advisory and underwriting revenues for the Group into a single metric in US dollar terms before cross-divisional revenue sharing agreements.

In 2Q17, the Strategic Resolution Unit reported a loss before taxes of CHF 563 million and decreased its risk-weighted assets by USD 1.6 billion and its leverage exposure by USD 7.9 billion.
2Q17 results
In 2Q17, we reported a loss before taxes of CHF 563 million compared to losses of CHF 539 million in 1Q17 and CHF 759 million in 2Q16. In 2Q17, we reported an adjusted loss before taxes of CHF 531 million, compared to adjusted losses of CHF 500 million in 1Q17 and CHF 739 million in 2Q16.
We reported negative net revenues of CHF 274 million in 2Q17, primarily driven by overall funding costs and valuation adjustments, partially offset by revenues from our legacy cross-border and small markets businesses. Valuation adjustments in 2Q17 primarily reflected losses on specific counterparty credit events in our legacy investment banking portfolio. Total operating expenses in 2Q17 were CHF 276 million, including CHF 164 million of general and administrative expenses, of which CHF 28 million were litigation provisions, and CHF 94 million were compensation and benefits. In 2Q17, we reported adjusted total operating expenses of CHF 244 million, compared to CHF 232 million in 1Q17 and CHF 413 million in 2Q16.
Capital and leverage metrics
As of the end of 2Q17, we reported risk-weighted assets of USD 39.8 billion, a decrease of USD 1.6 billion and USD 18.2 billion compared to the end of 1Q17 and 2Q16, respectively. Leverage exposure was USD 74.8 billion as of the end of 2Q17, reflecting a decrease of USD 7.9 billion and USD 72.8 billion compared to the end of 1Q17 and 2Q16, respectively. In 2Q17, risk-weighted assets reduction was achieved through targeted de-risking, such as the unwind of emerging market credit derivative exposures, and the sale or unwind of private equity funds and ship finance exposures. Leverage exposure reduction was achieved through various initiatives, including the reduction of emerging market loan exposures and the unwind and restructuring of life finance and derivatives exposures.

Net revenues
We reported negative net revenues of CHF 274 million in 2Q17 compared to negative net revenues of CHF 206 million in 1Q17 and CHF 363 million in 2Q16. Compared to 1Q17, the movement was primarily driven by higher negative valuation adjustments and lower fee-based revenues as a result of accelerated business exits, both in our legacy investment banking portfolio. This movement was partially offset by a reduction in overall funding costs.
Compared to 2Q16, the improvement was primarily driven by lower negative valuation adjustments and lower overall funding costs, partially offset by a reduction in fee-based revenues as a result of accelerated business exits in our legacy investment banking portfolio and from the restructuring of select onshore businesses. Valuation adjustments in 2Q17 primarily reflected mark-to-market losses on our legacy investment banking portfolio, including our macro trading portfolio.
43
Provision for credit losses
In 2Q17, there was a provision for credit losses of CHF 13 million compared to CHF 24 million in 1Q17 and a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 37 million in 2Q16. Provision for credit losses in 2Q17 was primarily related to the disposal of ship finance exposures.
Total operating expenses
Total operating expenses of CHF 276 million decreased CHF 33 million compared to 1Q17, primarily reflecting lower general and administrative expenses, including lower litigation provisions of CHF 53 million mainly in connection with mortgage-related matters, partially offset by higher expenses related to regulatory driven initiatives. Total operating expenses in 2Q17 included costs of CHF 48 million to meet requirements related to the settlements with US authorities regarding US cross-border matters. Adjusted total operating expenses increased 5%.
Compared to 2Q16, total operating expenses decreased CHF 157 million, due to lower compensation and benefits and general and administrative expenses as a result of various cost reduction initiatives, including the impact of the transfer of our US private banking business, and lower restructuring expenses. Adjusted total operating expenses decreased 41%.
Development of the Strategic Resolution Unit
As part of the Group’s strategy announced in 4Q15, we formed a new Strategic Resolution Unit intended to oversee the effective wind-down of businesses and positions that do not fit our strategic direction in the most efficient manner possible. At that time the Strategic Resolution Unit was created to facilitate the immediate right-sizing of our business divisions from a capital perspective and included remaining portfolios from our former non-strategic units plus additional transfers from the business divisions. The expectation at that time was that the Strategic Resolution Unit’s risk-weighted assets and leverage exposure would be reduced by approximately 80% by 2020, excluding operational risk.
On March 23, 2016 we announced additional strategic measures to further lower our cost base, accelerate the risk-weighted assets and leverage reduction initiatives through the restructuring of our Global Markets business and further strengthen our capital position. The additional measures included exiting the distressed credit, European securitized products trading and long-term illiquid financing businesses and making other business reductions. The assets from these impacted businesses were transferred to the Strategic Resolution Unit in the second quarter of 2016, including a portion of the corporate loan portfolio managed by the Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets divisions. These transfers related to client lending relationship exits and exposure types that at the time we did not consider consistent with the announced strategy. At that time we updated our expectation of the timing of an 80% reduction of the division’s risk-weighted assets and leverage exposure to year-end 2019, excluding operational risk.
In 1Q17 we announced an acceleration of the release of capital from the Strategic Resolution Unit and now plan to complete the wind-down of the division by the end of 2018 without incremental impact to our existing targets for pre-tax losses from this division. At our Investor Day in 2016 we announced that we estimated expenses in the Strategic Resolution Unit would amount to approximately USD 560 million and USD 440 million in 2018 and 2019, respectively. We further estimated pre-tax losses of approximately USD 1,400 million and USD 800 million in 2018 and 2019, respectively. In light of the acceleration of the wind-down of the division by the end of 2018, we expect to disclose any updated estimates of these measures in due course. Currently the allocation of costs to the Strategic Resolution Unit is conducted pursuant to a Group-wide allocation methodology, i.e., the Strategic Resolution Unit is subject to the same cost allocation methodology as the strategic divisions; however reductions in service usage during the course of the wind-down of the division will reduce allocated costs.
On occasion, the reduction of exposures in the Strategic Resolution Unit involve the maturation of lending facilities or other transactions that wholly or partially may be renewed or extended by our strategic business divisions, such as Global Markets or International Wealth Management. Similarly, there may be occasions where strategic business divisions will enter into new transactions with counterparties resulting in exposures that may have similar characteristics to those recorded in the Strategic Resolution Unit. This is aligned with the Group’s risk appetite and that of the relevant strategic divisions.
We have amended and enhanced our risk appetite framework in an effort to provide additional governance and controls to ensure all new business activities are scrutinized to distinguish between those types of business exposures held in the Strategic Resolution Unit that will be allowed for execution in our strategic divisions and those that will be prohibited or for which we have limited risk appetite.
The decline in risk-weighted assets and leverage exposure in 2Q17 for the Strategic Resolution Unit also reflected the contractual maturation of certain legacy loan facilities where the third-party counterparties entered into new agreements with the Global Markets division. The impact of these maturations on risk weighted assets and leverage exposure for the Strategic Resolution Unit was approximately USD 17 million and USD 77 million, respectively.

2Q17 results
In 2Q17, Corporate Center recorded a loss before taxes of CHF 245 million compared to losses of CHF 99 million in 1Q17, primarily driven by movements in treasury results, and compared to losses of CHF 235 million in 2Q16. Compensation and benefits mainly reflect fair value adjustments on certain deferred compensation plans not allocated to the segments and certain deferred compensation retention awards intended to support the restructuring of the Group relating to Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets, predominantly through the end of 2017, and to Asia Pacific predominantly through the end of 2018. General and administrative expenses primarily reflected costs associated with the evolution of our legal entity structure to meet developing and future regulatory requirements. Other revenues include required elimination adjustments associated with trading in own shares. Treasury results include the impact of volatility in the valuations of certain central funding transactions such as structured notes issuances and swap transactions. Beginning in 2Q17, treasury results also include additional interest charges from transfer pricing to align funding costs to assets held in the Corporate Center.

As of the end of 2Q17, assets under management were CHF 1,307.3 billion and net new assets were CHF 12.1 billion in 2Q17.
Assets under management
Assets under management comprise assets that are placed with us for investment purposes and include discretionary and advisory counterparty assets.
Discretionary assets are assets for which the client fully transfers the discretionary power to a Credit Suisse entity with a management mandate. Discretionary assets are reported in the business in which the advice is provided as well as in the business in which the investment decisions take place. Assets managed by the Asset Management business of International Wealth Management for other businesses are reported in each applicable business and eliminated at the Group level.
Advisory assets include assets placed with us where the client is provided access to investment advice but retains discretion over investment decisions.
Assets under management and net new assets include assets managed by consolidated entities, joint ventures and strategic participations. Assets from joint ventures and participations are counted in proportion to our share in the respective entity.
Net new assets
Net new assets include individual cash payments, delivery of securities and cash flows resulting from loan increases or repayments.
Interest and dividend income credited to clients and commissions, interest and fees charged for banking services as well as changes in assets under management due to currency and market volatility are not taken into account when calculating net new assets, as such charges or market movements are not directly related to the Group’s success in acquiring assets under management. Similarly structural effects mainly relate to asset inflows and outflows due to acquisition or divestiture, exit from businesses or markets or exits due to new regulatory requirements and are not taken into account when calculating net new assets. The Group reviews relevant policies regarding client assets on a regular basis.

2Q17 results
As of the end of 2Q17, assets under management of CHF 1,307.3 billion increased CHF 3.1 billion compared to the end of 1Q17. The increase was mainly driven by favorable market movements and net new assets of CHF 12.1 billion, largely offset by unfavorable foreign exchange-related movements.
Net new assets of CHF 12.1 billion primarily reflected net new assets of CHF 4.6 billion in the Private Banking business of International Wealth Management, reflecting solid inflows from emerging markets and Europe, net new assets of CHF 4.5 billion in the Private Banking business of Asia Pacific, primarily from inflows in Greater China and South East Asia and net new assets of CHF 2.8 billion in the Asset Management business of International Wealth Management reflecting inflows from traditional and alternative investments, partially offset by outflows from joint ventures.

In 2Q17, we maintained a strong liquidity and funding position. The majority of our unsecured funding was generated from core customer deposits and long-term debt.
Securities for funding and capital purposes have historically been issued primarily by the Bank, our principal operating subsidiary and a US registrant. In response to regulatory reform, we are now focusing our issuance strategy on offering long-term debt securities at the Group level. Proceeds from issuances are lent to operating subsidiaries and affiliates on both a senior and subordinated basis, as needed; the latter typically to meet capital requirements and the former as desired by management to support business initiatives and liquidity needs.
Our internal liquidity risk management framework is subject to review and monitoring by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA (FINMA), other regulators and rating agencies.
> Refer to “Treasury management” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on liquidity and funding management.
Basel III liquidity framework
In 2010, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) issued the Basel III international framework for liquidity risk measurement, standards and monitoring. The Basel III framework includes a liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) and a net stable funding ratio (NSFR). As of January 1, 2013, Basel III was implemented in Switzerland along with the Swiss “Too Big to Fail” legislation and regulations thereunder. Our related disclosures are in accordance with our interpretation of such requirements, including relevant assumptions and estimates. Changes in the interpretation of these requirements in Switzerland or in any of our interpretations, assumptions or estimates could result in different numbers from those shown in this report.
The LCR, which is being phased in from January 1, 2015 through January 1, 2019, addresses liquidity risk over a 30-day period. The LCR aims to ensure that banks have unencumbered high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) available to meet short-term liquidity needs under a severe stress scenario. The LCR is comprised of two components, the value of HQLA in stressed conditions and the total net cash outflows calculated according to specified scenario parameters. Under the BCBS requirements, the ratio of liquid assets over net cash outflows is subject to an initial minimum requirement of 60%, which will increase by 10% per year until January 1, 2019.
The NSFR establishes criteria for a minimum amount of stable funding based on the liquidity of a bank’s on- and off-balance sheet activities over a one-year horizon. The NSFR is a complementary measure to the LCR and is structured to ensure that illiquid assets are funded with an appropriate amount of stable long-term funds. The NSFR is defined as the ratio of available stable funding over the amount of required stable funding and once implemented by national regulators, should always be at least 100%.
Swiss liquidity requirements
In 2012, the Swiss Federal Council adopted a liquidity ordinance (Liquidity Ordinance) that implements Basel III liquidity requirements into Swiss law subject, in part, to further rule-making, including with respect to the final Basel III LCR rules adopted in 2014. Under the Liquidity Ordinance, as amended, certain Swiss banks became subject to an initial 60% LCR requirement, with incremental increases by 10% per year until January 1, 2019. Systemically relevant banks like Credit Suisse became subject to an initial minimum LCR requirement of 100% beginning on January 1, 2015 and the associated disclosure requirements. Further, beginning in May 2015, FINMA required us to maintain a minimum LCR of 110% at all times.
In connection with the implementation of Basel III, regulatory LCR disclosures for the Group and certain subsidiaries are required. Further details on our LCR can be found on our website.
>Refer to www.credit-suisse.com/regulatorydisclosures for additional information.
FINMA requires us to report the NSFR to FINMA on a monthly basis. The reporting instructions are generally aligned with the final BCBS NSFR requirements. Following an observation period that began in 2012, the NSFR will become a minimum standard in Switzerland on January 1, 2019, at which time banks will be required to comply with disclosure requirements prescribed by the BCBS and implemented by FINMA.
Our liquidity principles and our liquidity risk management framework as agreed with FINMA are in line with the Basel III liquidity framework.
> Refer to “Treasury management” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on the Basel III liquidity framework and Swiss liquidity requirements.
Our liquidity and funding policy is designed to ensure that funding is available to meet all obligations in times of stress, whether caused by market events or issues specific to Credit Suisse. We achieve this through a conservative asset/liability management strategy aimed at maintaining long-term funding, including stable deposits, in excess of illiquid assets. To address short-term liquidity stress, we maintain a liquidity pool, described below, that covers unexpected outflows in the event of severe market and idiosyncratic stress. Our liquidity risk parameters reflect various liquidity stress assumptions that we believe are conservative. We manage
50
our liquidity profile at a sufficient level such that, in the event we are unable to access unsecured funding, we expect to have sufficient liquidity to sustain operations for a period of time in excess of our minimum limit. This includes potential currency mismatches, which are not deemed to be a major risk but are monitored and subject to limits, particularly in the significant currencies of euro, Japanese yen, pound sterling, Swiss franc and US dollar.
> Refer to “Treasury management” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on our approach to liquidity risk management, governance and contingency planning.
Liquidity pool
Treasury manages a sizeable portfolio of liquid assets comprised of cash held at central banks and securities. A portion of the liquidity pool is generated through reverse repurchase agreements with top-rated counterparties. We are mindful of potential credit risk and therefore focus our liquidity holdings strategy on cash held at central banks and highly rated government bonds and on short-term reverse repurchase agreements. These government bonds are eligible as collateral for liquidity facilities with various central banks including the SNB, the Fed, the ECB and the BoE. Our direct exposure on these bonds is limited to highly liquid, top-rated sovereign entities or fully guaranteed agencies of sovereign entities. The liquidity pool may be used to meet the liquidity requirements of our operating companies.
As of the end of 2Q17, our liquidity pool managed by Treasury had an HQLA value of CHF 155.7 billion. The liquidity pool consisted of CHF 94.2 billion of cash held at major central banks, primarily the SNB, the Fed and the ECB, and CHF 61.5 billion market value of securities issued by governments and government agencies, primarily from the US, UK and France.
In addition to the liquidity portfolio managed by Treasury, there is also a portfolio of unencumbered liquid assets managed by various businesses, primarily in the Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets divisions. These assets generally include high-grade bonds and highly liquid equity securities that form part of major indices. In coordination with the businesses, Treasury can access these assets to generate liquidity if required.
As of the end of 2Q17, the portfolio that is not managed by Treasury had a market value of CHF 32.7 billion, consisting of CHF 12.5 billion of high-grade bonds and CHF 20.2 billion of highly liquid equity securities. Under our internal model, an average stress-level haircut of 15% is applied to these assets. The haircuts applied to these portfolios reflect our assessment of overall market risk at the time of measurement, potential monetization capacity taking into account increased haircuts, market volatility and the quality of the relevant securities.

Liquidity Coverage Ratio
Our calculation methodology for the LCR is prescribed by FINMA. For disclosure purposes, since January 1, 2017, our LCR is calculated using a three-month average that is measured using daily calculations during the quarter. The FINMA calculation of HQLA takes into account a cancellation mechanism (post-cancellation view) and is therefore not directly comparable to the assets presented in the financial statements that could potentially be monetized under a severe stress scenario. The cancellation mechanism effectively excludes the impact of certain secured financing transactions from available HQLA and simultaneously adjusts the level of net cash outflows calculated. Application of the cancellation mechanism adjusts both the numerator and denominator of the LCR calculation, meaning that the impact is mostly neutral on the LCR itself.
Beginning on March 31, 2017, our HQLA measurement methodology excludes potentially eligible HQLA available for use by entities of the Group in certain jurisdictions that may not be readily accessible for use by the Group as a whole. These HQLA eligible amounts may be restricted for reasons such as local regulatory requirements, including large exposure requirements, or other binding constraints that could limit the transferability to other Group entities in other jurisdictions.
On this basis, the level of our LCR was 165% as of the end of 2Q17, a decrease from 205% as of the end of 1Q17, representing an average HQLA of CHF 158.8 billion and average net cash outflows of CHF 96.2 billion.
The significant decrease in the LCR in 2Q17 resulted from the reduction in HQLA following the change in measurement methodology implemented on March 31, 2017 for assets that may be restricted. The effect of this change was reflected during the entire second quarter, leading to a greater reduction in average HQLA during 2Q17 than in 1Q17, where the effect of the change was only reflected for one day.
In addition, average net cash outflows increased slightly, mainly driven by a recalibration of our operational deposits model resulting in an increase in unsecured wholesale funding outflows. Our operational deposits model is approved by FINMA.

We fund our balance sheet primarily through core customer deposits, long-term debt, including structured notes, and shareholders’ equity. We monitor the funding sources, including their concentrations against certain limits, according to their counterparty, currency, tenor, geography and maturity, and whether they are secured or unsecured.
A substantial portion of our balance sheet is match funded and requires no unsecured funding. Match funded balance sheet items consist of assets and liabilities with close to equal liquidity durations and values so that the liquidity and funding generated or required by the positions are substantially equivalent.
Cash and due from banks and reverse repurchase agreements are highly liquid. A significant part of our assets, principally unencumbered trading assets that support the securities business, is comprised of securities inventories and collateralized receivables that fluctuate and are generally liquid. These liquid assets are available to settle short-term liabilities.
Loans, which comprise the largest component of our illiquid assets, are funded by our core customer deposits, with an excess coverage of 19% as of the end of 2Q17, compared to 16% as of the end of 1Q17, primarily reflecting a small increase in deposits. We fund other illiquid assets, including real estate, private equity and other long-term investments as well as the haircut for the illiquid portion of securities, with long-term debt and equity, in which we try to maintain a substantial funding buffer.
Our core customer deposits totaled CHF 323 billion as of the end of 2Q17, compared to CHF 320 billion as of the end of 1Q17, reflecting a small increase in the customer deposit base in our private banking and corporate & institutional banking businesses. Core customer deposits are from clients with whom we have a broad and longstanding relationship. Core customer deposits exclude deposits from banks and certificates of deposit. We place a priority on maintaining and growing customer deposits, as they have proven to be a stable and resilient source of funding even in difficult market conditions. Our core customer deposit funding is supplemented by the issuance of long-term debt.
> Refer to the chart “Balance sheet funding structure” and “Balance sheet” in Balance sheet, and off-balance sheet for further information.
Our long-term debt includes senior, senior bail-in and subordinated debt issued in US-registered offerings and medium-term note programs, euro market medium-term note programs, stand-alone offerings, structured note programs, covered bond programs, Australian dollar domestic medium-term note programs and a Samurai shelf registration statement in Japan. As a global bank, we have access to multiple markets worldwide and our major funding centers are New York, London, Zurich and Tokyo.
Our covered bond funding is in the form of mortgage-backed loans funded by domestic covered bonds issued through Pfandbriefbank Schweizerischer Hypothekarinstitute, one of two institutions established by a 1930 act of the Swiss Parliament to centralize the issuance of covered bonds, or historically from our own international covered bond program.

As of the end of 2Q17, we had outstanding long-term debt of CHF 176.7 billion, which included senior and subordinated instruments. We had CHF 57.7 billion and CHF 18.4 billion of structured notes and covered bonds outstanding, respectively, as of the end of 2Q17 compared to CHF 61.1 billion and CHF 18.3 billion, respectively, as of the end of 1Q17.
> Refer to “Issuances and redemptions” in Capital management for information on capital issuances, including buffer and progressive capital notes.
As of the end of 2Q17, the weighted average maturity of long-term debt was 5.8 years (including certificates of deposit with a maturity of one year or longer, but excluding structured notes, and assuming callable securities are redeemed at final maturity, or in 2030 for instruments without a stated final maturity).
Short-term borrowings increased to CHF 17.2 billion as of the end of 2Q17 compared to CHF 13.8 billion as of the end of 1Q17, mainly due to an increase in commercial paper.

The maximum impact of a simultaneous one, two or three-notch downgrade by all three major rating agencies in the Bank’s long-term debt ratings would result in additional collateral requirements or assumed termination payments under certain derivative instruments of CHF 0.3 billion, CHF 1.8 billion and CHF 2.4 billion, respectively, as of the end of 2Q17, and would not be material to our liquidity and funding planning. If the downgrade does not involve all three rating agencies, the impact may be smaller.
Potential cash outflows on these derivative contracts associated with a downgrade of our long-term debt credit ratings, such as the requirement to post additional collateral to the counterparty, the loss of re-hypothecation rights on any collateral received and impacts arising from additional termination events are monitored and taken into account in the calculation of our liquidity requirements. There are additional derivative related risks that do not relate to the downgrade of our long term debt credit ratings and which may impact our liquidity position, including risks relating to holdings of derivatives collateral or potential movements in the valuation of derivatives positions. The potential outflows resulting across all derivative product types are monitored as part of the LCR scenario parameters and the internal liquidity reporting.

As of the end of 2Q17, our BIS CET1 ratio was 14.2% and 13.3% on a look-through basis. Our BIS tier 1 leverage ratio was 5.6% and 5.2% on a look-through basis.
Effective January 1, 2013, the Basel III framework was implemented in Switzerland along with the Swiss “Too Big to Fail” legislation and regulations thereunder (Swiss Requirements). Together with the related implementing ordinances, the legislation includes capital, liquidity, leverage and large exposure requirements and rules for emergency plans designed to maintain systemically relevant functions in the event of threatened insolvency. Our related disclosures are in accordance with our current interpretation of such requirements, including relevant assumptions. Changes in the interpretation of these requirements in Switzerland or in any of our assumptions or estimates could result in different numbers from those shown in this report. Also, our capital metrics fluctuate during any reporting period in the ordinary course of business.
References to phase-in and look-through included herein refer to Basel III capital requirements and Swiss Requirements. Phase-in reflects that, for the years 2014 – 2018, there will be a five-year (20% per annum) phase-in of goodwill, other intangible assets and other capital deductions (e.g., certain deferred tax assets) and the phase-out of an adjustment for the accounting treatment of pension plans and, for the years 2013 – 2022, there will be a phase-out of certain capital instruments. Look-through assumes the full phase-in of goodwill and other intangible assets and other regulatory adjustments and the phase-out of certain capital instruments.
> Refer to “Capital management” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information.
The BCBS, the standard setting committee within the BIS, issued the Basel III framework, with higher minimum capital requirements and conservation and countercyclical buffers, revised risk-based capital measures, a leverage ratio and liquidity standards. The framework was designed to strengthen the resilience of the banking sector and requires banks to hold more capital, mainly in the form of common equity. The new capital standards are being phased in from 2013 through 2018 and become fully effective on January 1, 2019 for those countries that have adopted Basel III.
> Refer to the table “BIS phase-in requirements for Credit Suisse” for capital requirements and applicable effective dates during the phase-in period.
Under Basel III, the minimum CET1 requirement is 4.5% of risk-weighted assets (RWA). In addition, a 2.5% CET1 capital conservation buffer is required to absorb losses in periods of financial and economic stress. Banks that do not maintain this buffer will be limited in their ability to pay dividends and make discretionary bonus payments and other earnings distributions.
A progressive buffer between 1% and 2.5% (with a possible additional 1% surcharge) of CET1, depending on a bank’s systemic importance, is an additional capital requirement for global systemically important banks (G-SIB). The Financial Stability Board (FSB) has identified Credit Suisse as a G-SIB and currently requires Credit Suisse to maintain a 1.5% progressive buffer.
In addition to the CET1 requirements, there is also a requirement for 1.5% of additional tier 1 capital and 2% of tier 2 capital. These requirements may also be met with CET1 capital.

To qualify as additional tier 1 under Basel III, capital instruments must provide for principal loss absorption through a conversion into common equity or a write-down of principal feature. The trigger for such conversion or write-down must include a CET1 ratio of at least 5.125% as well as a trigger at the point of non-viability.
Basel III further provides for a countercyclical buffer that could require banks to hold up to 2.5% of CET1. This requirement is imposed by national regulators where credit growth is deemed to be excessive and leading to the build-up of system-wide risk.
Capital instruments that do not meet the strict criteria for inclusion in CET1 are excluded. Capital instruments that would no longer qualify as tier 1 or tier 2 capital will be phased out. In addition, instruments with an incentive to redeem prior to their stated maturity, if any, are phased out at their effective maturity date, which is generally the date of the first step-up coupon.
Banks are required to maintain a tier 1 leverage ratio of 3% beginning on January 1, 2018.
The legislation implementing the Basel III framework in Switzerland in respect of capital requirements for systemically relevant banks, including Credit Suisse, goes beyond the Basel III minimum standards for systemically relevant banks.
In May 2016, the Swiss Federal Council amended the Capital Adequacy Ordinance applicable to Swiss banks. The amendment recalibrates and expands the existing “Too Big to Fail” regime in Switzerland. Under the amended regime, systemically important banks operating internationally, such as Credit Suisse, will be subject to two different minimum requirements for loss-absorbing capacity: G-SIBs must hold sufficient capital that absorbs current operating losses to ensure continuity of service (going concern requirement) and they must issue sufficient debt instruments to fund restructuring without recourse to public resources (gone concern requirement). Going concern capital and gone concern capital together form our total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC). The going concern and gone concern requirements are generally aligned with the FSB’s total loss-absorbing capacity standard. The amended Capital Adequacy Ordinance came into effect on July 1, 2016, subject to phase-in and grandfathering provisions for certain outstanding instruments, and has to be fully applied by January 1, 2020.
Going concern requirement
The going concern requirement applicable in 2020 for a G-SIB consists of (i) a base requirement of 12.86% of RWA and 4.5% of leverage exposure; and (ii) a surcharge, which reflects the G-SIB’s systemic importance. For Credit Suisse, this currently translates into a going concern requirement of 14.3% of RWA, of which the minimum CET1 component is 10%, with the remainder to be met with a maximum of 4.3% additional tier 1 capital, which includes high-trigger capital instruments that would be converted into common equity or written down if the CET1 ratio falls below 7%. Under the going concern requirement, the Swiss leverage ratio must be 5%, of which the minimum CET1 component is 3.5%, with the remainder to be met with a maximum of 1.5% additional tier 1 capital, which includes high-trigger capital instruments.
Gone concern requirement
The gone concern requirement of a G-SIB is equal to its total going concern requirement, which in 2020, consists of a base requirement of 12.86% of RWA and 4.5% of leverage exposure, plus any surcharges applicable to the relevant G-SIB. The gone concern requirement does not include any countercyclical buffers. Credit Suisse is currently subject to a gone concern requirement of 14.3% of RWA and a 5% Swiss leverage ratio and is subject to potential capital rebates for resolvability and for certain tier 2 low-trigger instruments recognized as gone concern capital.
The gone concern requirement should primarily be fulfilled with bail-in debt instruments that are designed to absorb losses after the write-down or conversion into equity of regulatory capital of a G-SIB in a restructuring scenario, but before the write-down or conversion into equity of other senior obligations of the G-SIB. Bail-in debt instruments do not feature capital triggers that may lead to a write-down and/or a conversion into equity outside of restructuring, but only begin to bear losses once the G-SIB is formally in restructuring proceedings and FINMA orders capital measures (i.e., a write-down and/or a conversion into equity) in the restructuring plan.
According to the amended Capital Adequacy Ordinance, bail-in debt instruments must fulfill certain criteria in order to qualify under the gone concern requirement, including FINMA approval. In addition to bail-in debt instruments, the gone concern requirement may further be fulfilled with other capital instruments, including CET1, additional tier 1 capital instruments or tier 2 capital instruments.
Grandfathering provisions
The Capital Adequacy Ordinance provides for a number of grandfathering provisions with regard to the qualification of previously issued additional tier 1 capital instruments and tier 2 capital instruments:
– Additional tier 1 capital instruments with a low trigger qualify as going concern capital until their first call date. Additional tier 1 capital instruments that no longer qualify as going concern capital pursuant to this provision qualify as gone concern capital;
55
56
– Tier 2 capital instruments with a high trigger qualify as going concern capital until the earlier of (i) their maturity date or first call date; and (ii) December 31, 2019. Tier 2 capital instruments that no longer qualify as going concern capital pursuant to this provision qualify as gone concern capital until one year before their final maturity; and
– Tier 2 capital instruments with a low trigger also qualify as going concern capital until the earlier of (i) their maturity date or first call date; and (ii) December 31, 2019. Tier 2 capital instruments that no longer qualify as going concern capital pursuant to this provision qualify as gone concern capital until one year before their final maturity.
Furthermore, to be eligible as gone concern capital, outstanding bail-in debt instruments issued before July 1, 2016 and bail-in debt instruments issued by a (Swiss or foreign) special purpose vehicle before January 1, 2017 must have been approved by FINMA.
Both the going concern and the gone concern requirements are subject to a phase-in with gradually increasing requirements and have to be fully applied by January 1, 2020.
Other requirements
Effective July 1, 2016, Switzerland implemented an extended countercyclical buffer, which is based on the BIS countercyclical buffer that could require banks to hold up to 2.5% of RWA in the form of CET1 capital. The extended countercyclical buffer relates to a requirement that can be imposed by national regulators when credit growth is deemed to be excessive and leading to the build-up of system-wide risk.
The Swiss Federal Council has not activated the BIS countercyclical buffer for Switzerland but instead requires banks to hold CET1 capital in the amount of 2% of their RWA pertaining to mortgage loans that finance residential property in Switzerland (Swiss countercyclical buffer).
In 2013, FINMA introduced increased capital charges for mortgages that finance owner occupied residential property in Switzerland (mortgage multiplier) to be phased in through January 1, 2019. The mortgage multiplier applies for purposes of both BIS and FINMA requirements.
In December 2013, FINMA issued a decree (FINMA Decree) specifying capital adequacy requirements for the Bank, on a stand-alone basis (Bank parent company), and the Bank and the Group, each on a consolidated basis, as systemically relevant institutions.
> Refer to “Regulatory developments and proposals” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Capital management in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on the FINMA Decree.
Within the Basel framework for FINMA regulatory capital purposes, we implemented risk measurement models, including an incremental risk charge, stressed Value-at-Risk (VaR), risks not in VaR (RNIV) and advanced credit valuation adjustment (CVA).
For capital purposes, FINMA, in line with BIS requirements, uses a multiplier to impose an increase in market risk capital for every regulatory VaR backtesting exception over four in the prior rolling 12-month period. In 2Q17, our market risk capital multiplier remained at FINMA and BIS minimum levels and we did not experience an increase in market risk capital.
> Refer to “Market risk review” in Risk management for further information.
In July 2017, the FSB issued its Guiding Principles on the Internal Loss-absorbing Capacity of G-SIBs. The principles set out high-level guidelines to assist Crisis Management Group authorities in the implementation of internal TLAC mechanisms consistent with the FSB’s TLAC standard of November 2015. G-SIBs should be expected to meet the internal TLAC requirements by January 1, 2019, if they have been designated by the FSB as a G-SIB before the end of 2015, which is the case for Credit Suisse.
Issuances
On May 18, 2017, the Group held an Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders, at which shareholders approved a capital increase. The capital increase was completed by way of a rights offering. Net proceeds of the rights offering amounted to CHF 4.1 billion.
In July 2017, the Group issued EUR 1.5 billion 1.25% senior notes due 2025 which count as bail-in instruments.
Redemptions
In May 2017, the Group redeemed the remaining outstanding principal balances in the amounts of USD 135 million and USD 50 million of two tier 1 capital instruments. In June 2017, the Group redeemed the remaining outstanding principal balance in the amount of GBP 20 million of a tier 2 capital instrument.
Higher Trigger Capital Amount
The capital ratio write-down triggers for certain of our outstanding capital instruments take into account the fact that other outstanding capital instruments that contain relatively higher capital ratios as part of their trigger feature are expected to convert into equity or be written down prior to the write-down of such capital instruments. The amount of additional capital that is expected to be contributed by such conversion into equity or write-down is referred to as the Higher Trigger Capital Amount.
With respect to the capital instruments that specify a trigger event if the CET1 ratio were to fall below 5.125%, the Higher Trigger Capital Amount was CHF 7.4 billion and the Higher Trigger Capital Ratio (i.e., the ratio of the Higher Trigger Capital Amount to the aggregate of all RWA of the Group) was 2.8%, both as of the end of 2Q17.
With respect to the capital instruments that specify a trigger event if the CET1 ratio were to fall below 5%, the Higher Trigger Capital Amount was CHF 12.2 billion and the Higher Trigger Capital Ratio was 4.7%, both as of the end of 2Q17.

Our balance sheet positions and off-balance sheet exposures translate into RWA that are categorized as credit, market and operational risk RWA. When assessing RWA, it is not the nominal size, but rather the nature (including risk mitigation such as collateral or hedges) of the balance sheet positions or off-balance sheet exposures that determines the RWA. Credit risk RWA reflect the capital requirements for the possibility of a loss being incurred as the result of a borrower or counterparty failing to meet its financial obligations or as a result of a deterioration in the credit quality of the borrower or counterparty. Capital requirements for premises and equipment are also included in credit risk. Under Basel III, certain regulatory capital adjustments are dependent on the level of CET1 capital (thresholds). The amount above the threshold is deducted from CET1 capital and the amount below the threshold is risk weighted. RWA subject to such threshold adjustments are included in credit risk RWA. Market risk RWA reflect the capital requirements of potential changes in the fair values of financial instruments in response to market movements inherent in both balance sheet and off-balance sheet items. Operational risk RWA reflect the capital requirements for the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events.
RWA decreased 2% to CHF 260.9 billion as of the end of 2Q17 compared to CHF 265.3 billion as of the end of 1Q17, primarily driven by a foreign exchange impact and movements in risk levels, mainly in market risk. These decreases were partially offset by increases resulting from methodology and policy changes in credit risk.
Excluding the foreign exchange impact, the increase in credit risk was primarily driven by methodology and policy changes and movements in risk levels attributable to book size, partially offset by decreases in risk levels attributable to book quality. The increase relating to methodology and policy changes was mainly related to the phase-in impact from a FINMA requirement to treat share-backed lending without personal guarantees as corporate exposures, which was introduced in 3Q16 and primarily was reflected in International Wealth Management. The increase in methodology and policy changes was also impacted by an additional phase-in of the multiplier on income producing real estate (IPRE) exposures within Swiss Universal Bank and an additional phase-in of a multiplier on certain investment banking corporate exposures in Investment Banking & Capital Markets, Global Markets and Asia Pacific. The movements in risk levels reflected increases attributable to book size mainly from higher lending exposures in Asia Pacific, Investment Banking & Capital Markets and Global Markets. The increase in Corporate Center primarily reflected higher threshold-dependent RWA resulting from the capital increase. We also had increases in derivative exposures, primarily in Investment Banking & Capital Markets, and increases in secured financing exposures, in Global Markets. These increases were partially offset by decreases in lending exposures in Swiss Universal Bank and the Strategic Resolution Unit, reductions in advanced CVA due to increased hedging benefits in Investment Banking & Capital Markets, Swiss Universal Bank and International Wealth Management and decreases in derivative exposures in the Strategic Resolution Unit. The movements in risk levels were offset by decreases attributable to book quality for corporate lending exposures in Asia Pacific, Swiss Universal Bank and International Wealth Management.
Excluding the foreign exchange impact, the decrease in market risk was primarily driven by movements in risk levels, partially offset by an increase resulting from model and parameter updates. The movements in risk levels were primarily related to the Strategic Resolution Unit, Global Markets and Asia Pacific. The increase in model and parameter updates were mainly due to time series updates in Global Markets and Asia Pacific.

Beginning in 1Q15, Credit Suisse adopted the BIS leverage ratio framework, as issued by the BCBS and implemented in Switzerland by FINMA. Under the BIS framework, the leverage ratio measures tier 1 capital against the end-of-period exposure. BIS leverage amounts are calculated based on our interpretation of, and assumptions and estimates related to, the BIS requirements as implemented in Switzerland by FINMA. Changes in the interpretation of these requirements in Switzerland or in any of our interpretations, assumptions or estimates could result in different numbers from those shown here.
As used herein, leverage exposure is based on the BIS leverage ratio framework and consists of period-end balance sheet assets and prescribed regulatory adjustments.
The look-through leverage exposure was CHF 906.2 billion as of the end of 2Q17, a decrease of 3% compared to CHF 935.9 billion as of the end of 1Q17. The movement was primarily due to a reduction in the Group’s consolidated balance sheet, reflecting a foreign exchange translation impact and lower operating activities.
> Refer to “Balance sheet and off-balance sheet” for further information on the reduction in the Group’s consolidated balance sheet.

Total shareholders’ equity
Our total shareholders’ equity increased from CHF 41.7 billion as of the end of 1Q17 to CHF 43.5 billion as of the end of 2Q17. Total shareholders’ equity was positively impacted by the issuance of common shares due to the rights offering, net income attributable to shareholders and an increase in the share-based compensation obligation. These movements were partially offset by foreign exchange-related movements on cumulative translation adjustments, losses on fair value elected liabilities relating to credit risk, dividends paid and transactions relating to the settlement of share-based compensation awards.

In 2Q17, our available economic capital increased 5%, economic risk capital decreased 6%, overall position risk decreased 6% and average risk management VaR in US dollars increased 8%. Gross impaired loans remained stable at CHF 2.2 billion on a gross loan portfolio of CHF 274.9 billion.
Fundamental to our business is the prudent taking of risk in line with our strategic priorities. The primary objectives of risk management are to protect our financial strength and reputation, while ensuring that capital is well deployed to support business activities. Our risk management framework is based on transparency, management accountability and independent oversight.
> Refer to “Key risk developments”, “Risk management oversight”, “Risk appetite framework” and “Risk coverage and management” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Risk management in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information and additional details of our current risk management framework and activities, including definitions of certain terms and relevant metrics.
Key risk developments
French presidential elections
In the run up to the presidential election in France we convened a working group to ensure appropriate contingency planning was in place in case of an unexpected result or adverse market reaction. A review of our exposures to France was conducted with a number of scenarios of varying severities explored and, as a result, we have introduced specific scenario limits and reduced our exposure to a number of European countries.
North Korean crisis
Tensions continue to run high on the Korean peninsula. In the event of a potential escalation of the crisis, our Korean fixed income business could be significantly impacted due to the nature of the portfolio and underlying market specifics. We have developed several scenarios to assess and monitor the related risks and make use of macro hedges to offset potential losses.
Cyber risk
The financial industry continues to face a rapidly evolving cyber threat from a variety of actors who are driven by monetary, political and other motivations. We continue to invest significantly in our information and cybersecurity program to strengthen our ability to anticipate, defend, detect and recover from cyber attacks. We regularly assess the effectiveness of our key controls and we conduct ongoing employee training and awareness activities, including for key management personnel, in order to embed a strong cyber risk culture.
Middle East
In early June 2017, several countries, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Bahrain severed diplomatic ties and cut transportation links with Qatar. We have business relationships in all of these countries. At the end of 2Q17, the consensus expectation amongst regional analysts was for the dispute to continue rather than be quickly resolved. From a risk perspective, the longer the dispute continues the greater the potential threats to the regional economy and to local markets.
Brazil
In late June, the president of Brazil was formally indicted on corruption charges in the latest iteration of a long-running corruption investigation. The impact from this political development on Brazil’s fiscal policy and the economy is still uncertain. From a risk perspective, the potential threats to Brazil’s economic upswing and to its local markets are likely to stay relatively high. While Brazil is a significant market for Credit Suisse, we further reduced our exposure to this country during 2Q17 and continued assessing potential implications in the event of further deterioration of this political crisis.
Update to the risk appetite framework
During 2Q17, we amended and enhanced our risk appetite framework to provide additional governance and controls within our relevant transaction approval processes to distinguish between those types of business exposures held in the Strategic Resolution Unit that will be allowed for execution in our strategic divisions and those that will be prohibited or for which we have limited risk appetite. The amendments introduce a specific risk appetite statement which together with the entire risk appetite framework will be reviewed annually in line with our current process. This framework has been approved by management at the Capital Allocation & Risk Management Committee (CARMC).
The risk appetite statement includes a detailed list of transaction and product types that are prohibited from being executed in our strategic businesses. These transaction and product types are classified in five categories: (i) specific products; (ii) risk types; (iii) counterparties; (iv) investment classes; and (v) operational and franchise considerations. In addition, the statement establishes a robust set of principles and guidelines that serve to limit the execution of non-strategic transactions or business activities in our strategic business divisions.
We have established a framework for approval of exceptions to the provisions outlined in our risk appetite framework for certain transactions which may arise. Execution of such exceptions requires the approval of the divisional chief risk officer and divisional chief executive officer or their delegates and, where needed, by CARMC and/or the legal entity board of directors. Proposed transactions or business activities within our relevant transaction approval processes are assessed against the risk appetite statement.

Economic risk capital is used as a consistent and comprehensive tool for capital management, limit monitoring and performance management. Economic risk capital is our core Group-wide risk management tool for measuring and reporting the combined impact from quantifiable risks such as market, credit, operational, pension, expense and model risks, each of which has an impact on our capital position.
Economic risk capital measures risks in terms of economic realities rather than regulatory or accounting rules and estimates the amount of capital needed to remain solvent and in business under extreme market, business and operating conditions over the period of one year, given our target financial strength (our long-term credit rating). Economic risk capital is set to a level needed to absorb unexpected losses at a confidence level of 99.97%. Our economic risk capital model is a set of methodologies used for measuring quantifiable risks associated with our business activities on a consistent basis. It is calculated separately for position risk (reflecting our exposure to market and credit risks), operational risk and other risks.
We regularly review our economic capital methodology in order to ensure that the model remains relevant as markets and business strategies evolve. In the event of material methodology changes and dataset and model parameter updates, prior-period balances are restated in order to show meaningful trends.
> Refer to “Economic risk capital” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Risk management – Risk coverage and management in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on economic risk capital.

Available economic capital trends
As of the end of 2Q17, our available economic capital for the Group was CHF 49.2 billion, an increase of CHF 2.2 billion from the end of 1Q17. BIS look-through CET1 capital increased CHF 3.5 billion, mainly reflecting our capital increase in June of 2017, partially offset by a negative foreign exchange impact. Economic adjustments decreased CHF 1.3 billion, mainly reflecting the release of dividend accruals with the payment of the 2016 dividend and the foreign exchange impact on contingent capital instruments.

Economic risk capital trends
Compared to the end of 1Q17, our economic risk capital decreased 6% to CHF 31.7 billion, mainly due to a 6% decrease in position risk and a 9% reduction in other risks. The decrease in position risk was mainly due to decreased residential mortgage-back securities (RMBS) exposures in the US in real estate & structured assets, reduced private banking corporate & retail lending exposures in Switzerland and Asia, reduced exposures in Turkey in emerging markets country event risk and lower loan commitments in international lending & counterparty exposures. The decrease in other risks primarily reflected lower pension risk due to the improved funding status of our Swiss pension plan and reduced foreign exchange risk between available economic capital and economic risk capital. Excluding the US dollar translation impact, economic risk capital decreased 3%.
For Swiss Universal Bank, economic risk capital decreased 1% to CHF 5.6 billion from the end of 1Q17, mainly due to a reduction in private banking corporate & retail lending exposures and lower pension risk reflecting the improved funding status of our Swiss pension plan.
For International Wealth Management, economic risk capital decreased 1% to CHF 4.4 billion from the end of 1Q17. Excluding the US dollar translation impact, economic risk capital increased 1%, mainly due to increased equity exposures in equity trading & investments related to a securitization, partially offset by lower pension risk reflecting the improved funding status of our Swiss pension plan.
For Asia Pacific, economic risk capital decreased 5% to CHF 4.0 billion from the end of 1Q17, mainly due to reduced equity derivatives exposures in equity trading & investments and a reduction in private banking corporate & retail lending exposures, partially offset by higher loan commitments in international lending & counterparty exposures.
For Global Markets, economic risk capital decreased 7% to CHF 8.6 billion compared to the end of 1Q17, mainly due to lower RMBS exposures in the US in real estate & structured assets.
For Investment Banking & Capital Markets, economic risk capital decreased 3% to CHF 5.1 billion from the end of 1Q17. Excluding the US dollar translation impact, economic risk capital increased 1%, mainly due to increased international lending & counterparty exposures.
For the Strategic Resolution Unit, economic risk capital decreased 12% to CHF 3.4 billion from the end of 1Q17, mainly due to reduced exposures in Turkey in emerging markets country event risk and reduced loan commitments in international lending & counterparty exposures.
As part of our overall risk management, we hold a portfolio of hedges. Hedges are impacted by market movements, similar to other trading securities, and may result in gains or losses which offset losses or gains on the portfolios they were designated to hedge. Due to the varying nature and structure of hedges, these gains or losses may not wholly offset the losses or gains on the portfolios.

Market risk is the risk of financial loss arising from movements in market prices. Market risks arise from both our trading and non-trading business activities. The classification of assets into trading book and banking book portfolios determines the approach for analyzing our market risk exposure. Market risk in the trading book is measured using VaR and market risk in our banking book is measured using sensitivity analysis on related market factors.
> Refer to “Market risk” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Risk management – Risk coverage and management in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on market risk including our VaR methodology.
Trading book
Market risks from our trading book relate to our trading activities primarily in Global Markets and Asia Pacific. We are active in most of the principal trading markets of the world, using the majority of common trading and hedging products, including derivatives such as swaps, futures, options and structured products. Some of the structured products are customized transactions using combinations of derivatives and are executed to meet specific client or internal needs. As a result of our broad participation in products and markets, our trading strategies are correspondingly diverse and exposures are generally spread across a range of risks and locations.
VaR is a risk measure which quantifies the potential loss on a given portfolio of financial instruments over a certain holding period and that is expected to occur at a certain confidence level. VaR is an important tool in risk management and is used for measuring quantifiable risks from our activities exposed to market risk on a daily basis. In addition, VaR is one of the main risk measures for limit monitoring, financial reporting, calculation of regulatory capital and regulatory backtesting.
We regularly review our VaR model to ensure that it remains appropriate given evolving market conditions and the composition of our trading portfolio. In 2Q17, we updated our VaR model to better reflect equity volatility risks by increasing the granularity of the short-term time series. These risks were previously included in risk not in VaR. The impact of these updates on our VaR measures was immaterial and prior periods have not been restated.
We continue to receive regulatory approval for ongoing enhancements to our VaR methodology used for the calculation of regulatory capital, and the model is subject to regular reviews by regulators.
Information required under Pillar 3 of the Basel framework related to risk is available on our website at www.credit-suisse.com/pillar3.
The tables entitled “Average one-day, 98% risk management VaR by division” and “One-day, 98% risk management VaR” show our trading-related market risk exposure, as measured by one-day, 98% risk management VaR in Swiss francs and US dollars. As we measure trading book VaR for internal risk management purposes using the US dollar as the base currency, the VaR figures were translated into Swiss francs using daily foreign exchange translation rates. VaR estimates are computed separately for each risk type and for the whole portfolio using the historical simulation methodology. The different risk types are grouped into five categories including interest rate, credit spread, foreign exchange, commodity and equity.

We measure VaR in US dollars, as the majority of our trading activities are conducted in US dollars.
Average risk management VaR increased 8% to USD 27 million from 1Q17, mainly driven by increased interest rate exposures in the US and in Europe and a decreased diversification benefit. These changes were partially offset by lower credit spread risk and a decrease in foreign exchange risk. For Global Markets, the increase in average risk management VaR was mainly driven by increased interest rate exposures in the US and in Europe, partially offset by lower credit spread risk reflecting reduced exposures in distressed credit products across credit markets and in RMBS in the US and in Europe. For Asia Pacific, the decrease in average risk management VaR was primarily driven by decreased interest rate exposures in Japan and lower foreign exchange risk driven by a reduction in Korean derivatives.
Period-end risk management VaR decreased 8% to USD 24 million from 1Q17, mainly driven by decreased interest rate exposures in Japan and lower credit spread risk reflecting reduced exposures in distressed credit products across credit markets and in RMBS in the US and in Europe.
The chart entitled “Daily risk management VaR” shows the aggregated market risk in our trading book on a consolidated basis.
74
The histogram entitled “Actual daily trading revenues” compares the actual daily trading revenues for 2Q17 with those for 1Q17 and 4Q16. The dispersion of trading revenues indicates the day-to-day volatility in our trading activities. We had no trading loss days in 2Q17 and 1Q17 and two trading loss days in 4Q16.
VaR backtesting
Various techniques are used to assess the accuracy of the VaR methodology used for risk management and regulatory purposes and to assess if our regulatory capital is sufficient to absorb actual losses. Our VaR backtesting process is used to assess the accuracy and performance of our regulatory VaR model and to encourage developments to our VaR model. Backtesting involves comparing the results produced from the VaR model with the daily trading revenues. A backtesting exception occurs when a trading loss exceeds the daily VaR estimate. For capital purposes, FINMA, in line with BIS requirements, uses a multiplier to impose an increase in market risk capital for every regulatory VaR backtesting exception over four in the prior rolling 12-month period calculated using a subset of the actual daily trading revenues also referred to as “hypothetical” trading revenues under the Basel framework. In the rolling 12-month period through the end of 2Q17, we had no backtesting exceptions in our regulatory VaR model calculated using the subset of actual daily trading revenues. Since there were fewer than five backtesting exceptions in the rolling 12-month period through the end of 2Q17, in line with BIS industry guidelines, the VaR model is deemed to be statistically valid.
> Refer to “Market risk” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Risk management – Risk coverage and management in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on VaR backtesting.
> Refer to “Other requirements” in Capital management – Swiss requirements for further information on the use of our regulatory VaR model in the calculation of trading book market risk capital requirements.
Banking book
Market risks from our banking book primarily relate to asset and liability mismatch exposures, equity participations and investments in bonds and money market instruments. Our businesses and the Corporate Center have non-trading portfolios that carry market risks, mainly related to changes in interest rates but also to changes in foreign exchange rates, equity prices and, to a lesser extent, commodity prices.
Interest rate risk on banking book positions is measured by estimating the impact resulting from a one basis point parallel increase in yield curves on the fair value of interest rate-sensitive banking book positions. As of the end of 2Q17, the impact of such a parallel increase in yield curves would have been an increase of CHF 4.1 million, compared to an increase of CHF 4.7 million as of the end of 1Q17.
All transactions that are exposed to potential losses due to a counterparty failing to meet an obligation are subject to credit risk exposure measurement and management. The majority of our credit risk is concentrated in the private banking, corporate and institutional businesses and in the investment banking businesses.

Loans
Compared to the end of 1Q17, gross loans decreased CHF 2.5 billion to CHF 274.9 billion as of the end of 2Q17, mainly driven by lower commercial and industrial loans, lower loans to financial institutions and the US dollar translation impact, partially offset by higher loans collateralized by securities and higher mortgages. The net decrease of CHF 2.3 billion in commercial and industrial loans primarily reflected decreases in Global Markets, Swiss Universal Bank and the Strategic Resolution Unit, partially offset by an increase in Asia Pacific. Loans to financial institutions decreased CHF 1.5 billion, primarily in Asia Pacific, Global Markets, Swiss Universal Bank and the Strategic Resolution Unit. The net increase of CHF 0.8 billion in loans collateralized by securities was mainly driven by Asia Pacific and International Wealth Management, partially offset by decreases in Swiss Universal Bank and Investment Banking & Capital Markets. The net increase of CHF 0.8 billion in mortgages was mainly driven by increases in Swiss Universal Bank and International Wealth Management.
On a divisional level, decreases in gross loans of CHF 1.4 billion in Global Markets, CHF 1.1 billion in the Strategic Resolution Unit, CHF 0.6 billion in Swiss Universal Bank and CHF 0.3 billion in Investment Banking & Capital Markets were partially offset by increases of CHF 0.8 billion in Asia Pacific and CHF 0.2 billion in International Wealth Management.

Impaired loans
Compared to the end of 1Q17, gross impaired loans remained stable at CHF 2.2 billion as of the end of 2Q17, mainly reflecting higher non-performing loans in International Wealth Management, Investment Banking & Capital Markets and Global Markets, largely offset by lower non-performing loans and lower restructured loans in the Strategic Resolution Unit.
In International Wealth Management, gross impaired loans increased CHF 75 million, primarily driven by new impaired exposures in export finance and ship finance, partially offset by a reduction in lombard lending. The additional impaired exposures in export finance are 95% collateralized by export credit insurance, backed by high investment grade-rated sovereigns. In Swiss Universal Bank, gross impaired loans increased CHF 29 million, mainly reflecting new potential problem loans for private and wealth management clients within Private Clients as well as small and medium-sized enterprises in Switzerland, partially offset by upgrades to performing status. In the Strategic Resolution Unit, gross impaired loans decreased CHF 72 million, primarily driven by ship finance exposures, reflecting repayments, a write-off and an upgrade of a loan to performing status. In Asia Pacific, gross impaired loans were stable at CHF 141 million. Gross impaired loans for Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets were stable at CHF 38 million and CHF 33 million, respectively, while an increase in non-performing loans in both divisions was related to the downgrade of a potential problem loan in the supermarket sector in Europe.

The scope of our disclosure of European credit risk exposure includes all countries of the EU which are rated below AA or its equivalent by at least one of the three major rating agencies and where our gross exposure exceeds our quantitative threshold of EUR 0.5 billion.
> Refer to “Selected European credit risk exposures” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Risk management – Risk review and results in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on selected European credit risk exposures.
Monitoring of selected European credit risk exposures
Our credit risk exposure to these European countries is managed as part of our overall risk management process. The Group makes use of country limits and performs scenario analyses on a regular basis, which include analyses of our indirect sovereign credit risk exposures from our exposures to selected European financial institutions. This assessment of indirect sovereign credit risk exposures includes analysis of publicly available disclosures of counterparties’ exposures to the European countries within the defined scope of our disclosure. We monitor the concentration of collateral underpinning our over-the-counter (OTC) derivative and reverse repurchase agreement exposures through monthly reporting. We also monitor the impact of sovereign rating downgrades on collateral eligibility. Strict limits on sovereign collateral from G7 and non-G7 countries are monitored monthly. Similar disclosure is part of our regular risk reporting to regulators.
Development of selected European credit risk exposures
On a gross basis, before taking into account risk mitigation, our risk-based sovereign credit risk exposure to Cyprus, Croatia, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Portugal and Spain as of the end of 2Q17 was EUR 3,124 million, stable compared to EUR 3,107 million as of the end of 1Q17. Our net exposure to these sovereigns was EUR 1,207 million, 70% higher compared to EUR 712 million as of the end of 1Q17. Our non-sovereign risk-based credit risk exposure in these countries as of the end of 2Q17 included net exposure to financial institutions of EUR 1,726 million and to corporates and other counterparties of EUR 2,162 million, 16% lower compared to EUR 2,046 million and 63% higher compared to EUR 1,326 million, respectively, as of the end of 1Q17.

Sovereign debt rating developments
In 2Q17, the long-term sovereign debt ratings of the countries listed in the table changed as follows: Fitch decreased its rating for Italy from BBB+ to BBB.

Total assets were CHF 783.4 billion, total liabilities were CHF 739.6 billion and total equity was CHF 43.8 billion. Total assets decreased 4% and total liabilities decreased 4% for the quarter, reflecting the foreign exchange translation impact and lower operating activities. The majority of our transactions are recorded on our balance sheet, however, we also enter into transactions that give rise to both on and off-balance sheet exposure.
Total assets were CHF 783.4 billion as of the end of 2Q17, a decrease of CHF 28.6 billion, or 4%, from the end of 1Q17, reflecting the foreign exchange translation impact and lower operating activities. Excluding the foreign exchange translation impact, total assets decreased CHF 7.0 billion.
Compared to the end of 1Q17, trading assets decreased CHF 18.8 billion, or 12%, mainly due to lower equity and debt securities transactions. Central bank funds sold, securities purchased under resale agreements and securities borrowing transactions decreased CHF 8.6 billion, or 6%, mainly driven by a decrease in cash collateral, partially offset by higher reverse repurchase transactions from banks. Brokerage receivables decreased CHF 1.4 billion, or 3%, primarily reflecting decreases in failed settlements and open trades, partially offset by an increase in margin lending. Net loans were stable. Cash and due from banks increased CHF 8.5 billion, or 8%, mainly driven by higher cash positions at the Luxembourg Central Bank, the SNB and the Fed. All other assets decreased CHF 5.7 billion, or 6%, including a decrease of CHF 4.2 billion, or 11%, in securities received as collateral.

Report of Independent Registered PublicAccountingFirmto the Board of Directors of Credit Suisse Group AG, ZurichWe have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Credit Suisse Group AG and subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of June 30, 2017, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, and changes in equity for the three and sixmonth periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Group’s management.We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of the Group as of December31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March24, 2017, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December31, 2016, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.KPMG AGNicholas EdmondsAnthony AnzevinoLicensed Audit ExpertGlobal Lead PartnerZurich, SwitzerlandJuly 28, 2017

Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Credit Suisse Group AG (the Group) are prepared in accordance with US GAAP and are stated in Swiss francs (CHF). These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the accounting principles generally accepted in the US (US GAAP) consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016.
> Refer to “Note 1 – Summary of significant accounting policies” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for a description of the Group’s significant accounting policies.
Certain financial information, which is normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP, but not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period’s consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented. The 1Q17 consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, the 1Q17 consolidated balance sheets and the 2Q17, 1Q17 and 2Q16 consolidated statements of changes in equity have been added for convenience of the reader and are not a required presentation under US GAAP. The results of operations for interim periods are not indicative of results for the entire year.
In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently adopted accounting standards
The following provides the most relevant recently adopted accounting standards.
> Refer to “Note 2 – Recently issued accounting standards” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for a description of accounting standards adopted in 2016.
ASC Topic 350 – Intangibles - Goodwill and Other
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (ASU 2017-04), an update to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805 – Business Combinations. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. ASU 2017-04 is to be applied on a prospective basis. The Group elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2017, which did not have a material impact on the Group’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ASC Topic 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (ASU 2016-09), an update to ASC Topic 718 – Compensation—Stock Compensation. The amendments in ASU 2016-09 provide simplification updates for several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017 resulted in the recognition of previously unrecorded deferred tax asset net operating loss balances which arose due to prior tax windfalls that did not immediately result in cash tax savings. The adjustment resulted in an increase in retained earnings of CHF 85 million upon adoption.
ASC Topic 740 – Income Taxes
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory” (ASU 2016-16), an update to ASC Topic 740 – Income Taxes. The amendments in ASU 2016-16 eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. ASU 2016-16 is required to be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. ASU 2016-16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Group elected to early adopt ASU 2016-16 on January 1, 2017, which resulted in a reclassification from other assets to deferred tax assets. The net impact upon adoption was a reduction in retained earnings of CHF 81 million.
ASC Topic 825 – Financial Instruments – Overall
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (ASU 2016-01), an update to ASC Topic 825 – Financial
95
Instruments – Overall. The amendments in ASU 2016-01 address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. The amendments primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption of the full standard is not permitted; however, certain sections of ASU 2016-01 relating to fair value option-elected financial liabilities can be early adopted in isolation. These amendments to ASU 2016-01 require the changes in fair value relating to instrument-specific credit risk of fair value option elected financial liabilities to be presented separately in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The Group has early adopted these sections of the update on January 1, 2016. As a result of adoption, a reclassification of a gain from retained earnings to AOCI of CHF 475 million, net of tax, was recorded. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the remaining sections of ASU 2016-01 on the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Standards to be adopted in future periods
ASC Topic 230 – Statement of Cash Flows
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force)” (ASU 2016-15), an update to ASC Topic 230 – Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 provide guidance regarding classification of certain cash receipts and payments where diversity in practice was observed. ASU 2016-15 is required to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented beginning in the year of adoption. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 on the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
ASC Topic 326 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (ASU 2016-13), creating ASC Topic 326 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis (including, but not limited to loans), net investments in leases recognized as lessor and off-balance sheet credit exposures. ASU 2016-13 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold under the current incurred loss methodology for recognizing credit losses. Instead, ASU 2016-13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Group will incorporate forward-looking information and macroeconomic factors into its credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users to better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. As the Group is a US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early application will be permitted for annual reporting periods and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2018.
The Group has established a cross-functional implementation team and governance structure for the project. The Group has decided on a current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology while it is adjusting for key interpretive issues. Furthermore, the Group will continue to monitor the initial scope assessment, as a basis to determine the requirements and data sourcing of the CECL models, and to design, build and test the models until the effective date.
The Group expects that the new CECL methodology would generally result in increased and more volatile allowance for loan losses. The main impact drivers include:
– the remaining life of the loans measured at amortized cost and the off-balance sheet credit exposures at the adoption date and subsequent reporting dates because of the new requirement to measure lifetime expected credit losses;
– the point of time in the economic cycle at the adoption date and subsequent reporting dates because of the new requirement to incorporate reasonable and supportable forward-looking information and macroeconomic factors; and
– the credit quality of the loans measured at amortized cost and the off-balance sheet credit exposures at the adoption date and subsequent reporting dates.
Upon adoption of the standard, the Group expects an adjustment to be posted to retained earnings for any changes in loan losses. As the implementation progresses, the Group will continue to evaluate the extent of the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
ASC Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09), an update to ASC Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU outlines key steps that an entity should follow to achieve the core principle. ASU 2014-09 and its subsequent amendments are effective for the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2017, and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods.
96
The Group has established a cross-functional implementation team and governance structure for the project. The Group’s implementation efforts include the identification of revenue and costs within the scope of the guidance, as well as the evaluation of revenue contracts under the new guidance and related accounting policies. The guidance does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including loans and securities that are accounted for under other US GAAP guidance. To date, the recognition and timing impacts that the Group has identified relate to the timing of certain fees. The new guidance eliminates industry specific guidance and as a result will have an impact on the gross versus net presentation of certain income and expenses, for example a change from net to gross reporting of underwriting expenses and reimbursed costs from advisory activities. The changes identified thus far are not expected to have a material impact on the Group’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows; however, the evaluation remains ongoing.
ASC Topic 715 – Compensation – Retirement Benefits
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost” (ASU 2017-07), an update to ASC Topic 715 – Compensation – Retirement Benefits. The amendments in ASU 2017-07 require that the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost be presented in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Other components of the net periodic benefit cost should be reported separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income. ASU 2017-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-07 on the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
ASC Topic 842 – Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (ASU 2016-02), creating ASC Topic 842 – Leases. ASU 2016-02 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. ASU 2016-02 also includes disclosure requirements to provide more information about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Lessor accounting is substantially unchanged compared to the current accounting guidance. Under the current lessee accounting model, the Group is required to distinguish between finance leases, which are recognized on the balance sheet, and operating leases, which are not. ASU 2016-02 will require lessees to present a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a lease term of greater than twelve months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods.
The Group has established a cross-functional implementation team and governance structure for the project. The Group is currently reviewing its existing contracts to determine the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02. The Group expects an increase in total assets and total liabilities as a result of recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases under the new guidance and is currently evaluating the extent of the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Group’s results of operations and cash flows.
Capital increase
On May 18, 2017, the Group held an Extraordinary General Meeting at which shareholders approved a capital increase by way of a rights offering. By the end of the rights exercise period on June 7, 2017, 99.2% of the rights had been exercised and 390,206,406 newly issued shares were subscribed. The remaining 3,026,166 newly issued shares that were not subscribed were sold in the market. The capital increase resulted in 393,232,572 newly issued shares and net proceeds for the Group of CHF 4.1 billion.
97
The Group is a global financial services company domiciled in Switzerland and serves its clients through three regionally focused divisions: Swiss Universal Bank, International Wealth Management and Asia Pacific. These regional businesses are supported by two other divisions specialized in investment banking capabilities: Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets. The Strategic Resolution Unit consolidates the remaining portfolios from the former non-strategic units plus additional businesses and positions that do not fit with the strategic direction. The segment information reflects the Group’s six reportable segments and the Corporate Center, which are managed and reported on a pre-tax basis.

In accordance with US GAAP, the Group continually assesses whether or not there has been a triggering event requiring a review of goodwill. There was no triggering event in 2Q17. As of June 30, 2017, the Group’s market capitalization was below book value.
On December 7, 2016, and on February 14, 2017, the Group announced a reorganization and change to financial reporting affecting its Swiss Universal Bank and Asia Pacific segments. During 1Q17, these measures were implemented. The Group determined that these changes constituted triggering events. The Group’s reporting units as a result of these measures are defined as follows: Swiss Universal Bank – Private Clients (formerly Private Banking), Swiss Universal Bank – Corporate & Institutional Clients (formerly Corporate & Institutional Banking), International Wealth Management – Private Banking, International Wealth Management – Asset Management, Asia Pacific – Wealth Management & Connected (formerly Private Banking), Asia Pacific – Markets (formerly Investment Banking), Global Markets, Investment Banking & Capital Markets and the Strategic Resolution Unit.
The carrying value of each reporting unit for the purpose of the goodwill impairment test is determined by considering the reporting units’ risk-weighted assets usage, leverage ratio exposure, deferred tax assets, goodwill and intangible assets. Any residual equity, after considering the total of these elements, is allocated to the reporting units on a pro-rata basis.
In estimating the fair value of its reporting units, the Group applied a combination of the market approach and the income approach. Under the market approach, consideration was given to price to projected earnings multiples or price to book value multiples for similarly traded companies and prices paid in recent transactions that have occurred in its industry or in related industries. Under the income approach, a discount rate was applied that reflects the risk and uncertainty related to the reporting unit’s projected cash flows, which are determined from the Group’s financial plan.
In determining the estimated fair value, the Group relied upon its updated five-year strategic business plan which included significant management assumptions and estimates based on its view of current and future economic conditions and regulatory changes.
Goodwill is tested for impairment before and immediately after a reorganization or restructuring of reporting units. As a result, the goodwill impairment test was performed during 1Q17 under the old business structure and then again under the modified structure according to the measures implemented in connection with the announcements on December 7, 2016 and on February 14, 2017.
112
The Group concluded that the estimated fair value for all of its reporting units impacted by the measures implemented in connection with the December 7, 2016 and February 14, 2017 announcements substantially exceeded their related carrying values and that no impairment was necessary.
The results of the impairment evaluation of each reporting unit’s goodwill would be significantly impacted by adverse changes in the underlying parameters used in the valuation process. If actual outcomes adversely differ by a significant margin from its best estimates of the key economic assumptions and associated cash flows applied in the valuation of the reporting unit, the Group could potentially incur material impairment charges in the future.

The disclosures set out in the tables below include derivatives, reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements, and securities lending and borrowing transactions that:
– are offset in the Group’s consolidated balance sheets; or
– are subject to an enforceable master netting agreement or similar agreement (enforceable master netting agreements), irrespective of whether they are offset in the Group’s consolidated balance sheets.
Similar agreements include derivative clearing agreements, global master repurchase agreements and global master securities lending agreements.
Derivatives
The Group transacts bilateral OTC derivatives mainly under the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) Master Agreements and Swiss Master Agreements for OTC derivative instruments. These agreements provide for the net settlement of all transactions under the agreement through a single payment in the event of default or termination under the agreement. They allow the Group to offset balances from derivative assets and liabilities as well as the receivables and payables to related cash collateral transacted with the same counterparty. Collateral for OTC derivatives is received and provided in the form of cash and marketable securities. Such collateral may be subject to the standard industry terms of an ISDA Credit Support Annex. The terms of an ISDA Credit Support Annex provide that securities received or provided as collateral may be pledged or sold during the term of the transactions and must be returned upon maturity of the transaction. These terms also give each counterparty the right to terminate the related transactions upon the other counterparty’s failure to post collateral. Financial collateral received or pledged for OTC derivatives may also be subject to collateral agreements which restrict the use of financial collateral.
For derivatives transacted with exchanges (exchange-traded derivatives) and central clearing counterparties (OTC-cleared derivatives), positive and negative replacement values (PRV/NRV) and related cash collateral may be offset if the terms of the rules and regulations governing these exchanges and central clearing counterparties permit such netting and offset.
Where no such agreements exist, fair values are recorded on a gross basis.
Exchange-traded derivatives or OTC-cleared derivatives, that are fully margined and for which the daily margin payments constitute settlement of the outstanding exposure, are not included in the offsetting disclosures because they are not subject to offsetting due to the daily settlement. The daily margin payments, which are not settled until the next settlement cycle is conducted, are presented in brokerage receivables or brokerage payables. The notional amount for these daily settled derivatives is included in the fair value of derivative instruments table in “Note 25 – Derivatives and hedging activities”.
Under US GAAP, the Group elected to account for substantially all financial instruments with an embedded derivative that is not considered clearly and closely related to the host contract at fair value. There is an exception for a bifurcatable hybrid debt instrument which the Group did not elect to account for at fair value. However, this bifurcated embedded derivative is not subject to an enforceable master netting agreement and is not recorded as a derivative instrument under trading assets and liabilities or other assets and other liabilities. Information on this bifurcated embedded derivative has therefore not been included in the offsetting disclosures.

Reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements and securities lending and borrowing transactions
Reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements are generally covered by global master repurchase agreements with netting terms similar to ISDA Master Agreements. In certain situations, for example in the event of default, all contracts under the agreements are terminated and are settled net in one single payment. Transactions under such agreements are netted in the consolidated balance sheets if they are with the same counterparty, have the same maturity date, settle through the same clearing institution and are subject to the same master netting agreement. The amounts offset are measured on the same basis as the underlying transaction (i.e., on an accrual basis or fair value basis).
Securities lending and borrowing transactions are generally executed under global master securities lending agreements with netting terms similar to ISDA Master Agreements. In certain situations, for example in the event of default, all contracts under the agreement are terminated and are settled net in one single payment. Transactions under these agreements are netted in the consolidated balance sheets if they meet the same right of offset criteria as for reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements. In general, most securities lending and borrowing transactions do not meet the criterion of having the same settlement date specified at inception of the transaction, and therefore they are not eligible for netting in the consolidated balance sheets. However, securities lending and borrowing transactions with explicit maturity dates may be eligible for netting in the consolidated balance sheets.
Reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements are collateralized principally by government securities, money market instruments and corporate bonds and have terms ranging from overnight to a longer or unspecified period of time. In the event of counterparty default, the reverse repurchase agreement or securities lending agreement provides the Group with the right to liquidate the collateral held. In certain circumstances, financial collateral received may be restricted during the term of the agreement (e.g., in tri-party arrangements).
The following table presents the gross amount of securities purchased under resale agreements and securities borrowing transactions subject to enforceable master netting agreements, the amount of offsetting, the amount of securities purchased under resale agreements and securities borrowing transactions not subject to enforceable master netting agreements and the net amount presented in the consolidated balance sheets.

The 2Q17 income tax expense of CHF 276 million includes the impact of the continuous reassessment of the estimated annual effective tax rate as well as the impact of items that need to be recorded in the specific interim period in which they occur. Further details are outlined in the tax expense reconciliation below.
Net deferred tax assets related to net operating losses, net deferred tax assets on temporary differences and net deferred tax liabilities are presented in the following manner. Nettable gross deferred tax liabilities are allocated on a pro-rata basis to gross deferred tax assets on net operating losses and gross deferred tax assets on temporary differences. This approach is aligned with the underlying treatment of netting gross deferred tax assets and liabilities under the Basel III framework. Valuation allowances have been allocated against such deferred tax assets on net operating losses first with any remainder allocated to such deferred tax assets on temporary differences. This presentation is considered the most appropriate disclosure given the underlying nature of the gross deferred tax balances.
As of June 30, 2017, the Group had accumulated undistributed earnings from foreign subsidiaries of CHF 4.8 billion which are considered indefinitely reinvested. The Group would need to accrue and pay taxes on these undistributed earnings if such earnings were repatriated. No deferred tax liability was recorded in respect of those amounts as these earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities for these undistributed foreign earnings.
The Group is currently subject to ongoing tax audits, inquiries and litigation with the tax authorities in a number of jurisdictions, including Brazil, the Netherlands, the US, the UK and Switzerland. Although the timing of completion is uncertain, it is reasonably possible that some of these will be resolved within 12 months of the reporting date. It is reasonably possible that there will be a decrease between zero and CHF 67 million in unrecognized tax benefits within 12 months of the reporting date.
The Group remains open to examination from federal, state, provincial or similar local jurisdictions from the following years onward in these major countries: Brazil – 2012; Japan – 2012; Switzerland – 2011; the US – 2010; the UK – 2009; and the Netherlands – 2006.

Disclosures relating to contingent credit risk
Certain of the Group’s derivative instruments contain provisions that require it to maintain a specified credit rating from each of the major credit rating agencies. If the ratings fall below the level specified in the contract, the counterparties to the agreements could request payment of additional collateral on those derivative instruments that are in a net liability position. Certain of the derivative contracts also provide for termination of the contract, generally upon a downgrade of either the Group or the counterparty, at the existing mark-to-market replacement value of the derivative contract.
The following table provides the Group’s current net exposure from contingent credit risk relating to derivative contracts with bilateral counterparties and SPEs that include credit support agreements, the related collateral posted and the additional collateral required in a one-notch, two-notch and a three-notch downgrade event, respectively. The table also includes derivative contracts with contingent credit risk features without credit support agreements that have accelerated termination event conditions. The current net exposure for derivative contracts with bilateral counterparties and contracts with accelerated termination event conditions is the aggregate fair value of derivative instruments that were in a net liability position. For SPEs, the current net exposure is the contractual amount that is used to determine the collateral payable in the event of a downgrade. The contractual amount could include both the NRV and a percentage of the notional value of the derivative.

Credit protection sold/purchased
The following tables do not include all credit derivatives and differ from the credit derivatives in the “Fair value of derivative instruments” tables. This is due to the exclusion of certain credit derivative instruments under US GAAP, which defines a credit derivative as a derivative instrument (a) in which one or more of its underlyings are related to the credit risk of a specified entity (or a group of entities) or an index based on the credit risk of a group of entities and (b) that exposes the seller to potential loss from credit risk-related events specified in the contract.
Total return swaps (TRS) of CHF 7.5 billion and CHF 7.8 billion as of the end of 2Q17 and 4Q16, respectively, were also excluded because a TRS does not expose the seller to potential loss from credit risk-related events specified in the contract. A TRS only provides protection against a loss in asset value and not against additional amounts as a result of specific credit events.

Credit protection sold
Credit protection sold is the maximum potential payout, which is based on the notional value of derivatives and represents the amount of future payments that the Group would be required to make as a result of credit risk-related events.
Credit protection purchased
Credit protection purchased represents those instruments where the underlying reference instrument is identical to the reference instrument of the credit protection sold.
Other protection purchased
In the normal course of business, the Group purchases protection to offset the risk of credit protection sold that may have similar, but not identical, reference instruments and may use similar, but not identical, products, which reduces the total credit derivative exposure. Other protection purchased is based on the notional value of the instruments.
Fair value of credit protection sold
The fair values of the credit protection sold give an indication of the amount of payment risk, as the negative fair values increase when the potential payment under the derivative contracts becomes more probable.
The following table reconciles the notional amount of credit derivatives included in the table “Fair value of derivative instruments” to the table “Credit protection sold/purchased”.

Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, guarantees are provided that contingently obligate the Group to make payments to third parties if the counterparty fails to fulfill its obligation under a borrowing or other contractual arrangement. The total gross amount disclosed within the Guarantees table reflects the maximum potential payment under the guarantees. The carrying value represents the higher of the initial fair value (generally the related fee received or receivable) less cumulative amortization and the Group’s current best estimate of payments that will be required under existing guarantee arrangements.
Guarantees provided by the Group are classified as follows: credit guarantees and similar instruments, performance guarantees and similar instruments, derivatives and other guarantees. The Group no longer provides guarantees for securities lending indemnifications.
> Refer to “Guarantees” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group – Note 33 – Guarantees and commitments in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for a detailed description of guarantees.

Deposit-taking banks and securities dealers in Switzerland and certain other European countries are required to ensure the payout of privileged deposits in case of specified restrictions or compulsory liquidation of a deposit-taking bank. In Switzerland, deposit-taking banks and securities dealers jointly guarantee an amount of up to CHF 6 billion. Upon occurrence of a payout event triggered by a specified restriction of business imposed by FINMA or by the compulsory liquidation of another deposit-taking bank, the Group’s contribution will be calculated based on its share of privileged deposits in proportion to total privileged deposits. Based on FINMA’s estimate for the Group’s banking subsidiaries in Switzerland, the Group’s share in the deposit insurance guarantee program for the period July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017 is CHF 0.6 billion. These deposit insurance guarantees were reflected in other guarantees. For the period July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018, the Group’s share in this deposit insurance guarantee program based on FINMA’s estimate will be CHF 0.5 billion.
Representations and warranties on residential mortgage loans sold
In connection with the former Investment Banking division’s sale of US residential mortgage loans, the Group has provided certain representations and warranties relating to the loans sold. The Group has provided these representations and warranties relating to sales of loans to: the US government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac; institutional investors, primarily banks; and non-agency, or private label, securitizations. The loans sold are primarily loans that the Group has purchased from other parties. The scope of representations and warranties, if any, depends on the transaction, but can include: ownership of the mortgage loans and legal capacity to sell the loans; loan-to-value ratios and other characteristics of the property, the borrower and the loan; validity of the liens securing the loans and absence of delinquent taxes or related liens; conformity to underwriting standards and completeness of documentation; and origination in compliance with law. If it is determined that representations and warranties were breached, the Group may be required to repurchase the related loans or indemnify the investors to make them whole for losses. Whether the Group will incur a loss in connection with repurchases and make whole payments depends on: the extent to which claims are made; the validity of such claims made within the statute of limitations (including the likelihood and ability to enforce claims); whether the Group can successfully claim against parties that sold loans to the Group and made representations and warranties to the Group; the residential real estate market, including the number of defaults; and whether the obligations of the securitization vehicles were guaranteed or insured by third parties.
During the first six months of 2017, the Group received repurchase claims for residential mortgage loans that were not significant, and loans repurchased during this period and related losses were not significant. The balance of outstanding repurchase claims as of the end of 2Q17 was not significant.
Repurchase claims on residential mortgage loans sold that are subject to arbitration or litigation proceedings, or become so during the reporting period, are not included in this Guarantees and commitments disclosure but are addressed in litigation and related loss contingencies and provisions. The Group is involved in litigation relating to representations and warranties on residential mortgages sold.

In the normal course of business, the Group enters into transactions with, and makes use of, SPEs. An SPE is an entity in the form of a trust or other legal structure designed to fulfill a specific limited need of the company that organized it and is generally structured to isolate the SPE’s assets from creditors of other entities, including the Group. The principal uses of SPEs are to assist the Group and its clients in securitizing financial assets and creating investment products. The Group also uses SPEs for other client-driven activity, such as to facilitate financings, and Group tax or regulatory purposes.
Securitizations
The majority of the Group’s securitization activities involve mortgages and mortgage-related securities and are predominantly transacted using SPEs. In a typical securitization, the SPE purchases assets financed by proceeds received from the SPE’s issuance of debt and equity instruments, certificates, commercial paper (CP) and other notes of indebtedness. These assets and liabilities are recorded on the balance sheet of the SPE and not reflected on the Group’s consolidated balance sheet, unless either the Group sold the assets to the entity and the accounting requirements for sale were not met or the Group consolidates the SPE.
The Group purchases commercial and residential mortgages for the purpose of securitization and sells these mortgage loans to SPEs. These SPEs issue commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), RMBS and asset-backed securities (ABS) that are collateralized by the assets transferred to the SPE and that pay a return based on the returns on those assets. Investors in these mortgage-backed securities or ABS typically have recourse to the assets in the SPEs, unless a third-party guarantee has been received to further enhance the creditworthiness of the assets. The investors and the SPEs have no recourse to the Group’s assets. The Group is typically an underwriter of, and makes a market in, these securities.
The Group also transacts in re-securitizations of previously issued RMBS securities. Typically, certificates issued out of an existing securitization vehicle are sold into a newly created and separate securitization vehicle. Often, these re-securitizations are initiated in order to repackage an existing security to give the investor a higher rated tranche.
The Group also uses SPEs for other asset-backed financings relating to client-driven activity and for Group tax or regulatory purposes. Types of structures included in this category include managed collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), CLOs, leveraged finance, repack and other types of transactions, including life insurance structures, emerging market structures set up for financing, loan participation or loan origination purposes, and other alternative structures created for the purpose of investing in venture capital-like investments. CLOs are collateralized by loans transferred to the CLO vehicle and pay a return based on the returns on the loans. Leveraged finance structures are used to assist in
130
the syndication of certain loans held by the Group, while repack structures are designed to give a client collateralized exposure to specific cash flows or credit risk backed by collateral purchased from the Group. In these asset-backed financing structures investors typically only have recourse to the collateral of the SPE and do not have recourse to the Group’s assets.
When the Group transfers assets into an SPE, it must assess whether that transfer is accounted for as a sale of the assets. Transfers of assets may not meet sale requirements if the assets have not been legally isolated from the Group and/or if the Group’s continuing involvement is deemed to give it effective control over the assets. If the transfer is not deemed a sale, it is instead accounted for as a secured borrowing, with the transferred assets as collateral.
Gains and losses on securitization transactions depend, in part, on the carrying values of mortgages and loans involved in the transfer and are allocated between the assets sold and any beneficial interests retained according to the relative fair values at the date of sale.
The Group does not retain material servicing responsibilities from securitization activities.
The following table provides the gains or losses and proceeds from the transfer of assets relating to 6M17 and 6M16 securitizations of financial assets that qualify for sale accounting and subsequent derecognition, along with the cash flows between the Group and the SPEs used in any securitizations in which the Group maintained continuing involvement from the time of the transaction, regardless of when the securitization occurred.

Continuing involvement in transferred financial assets
The Group may have continuing involvement in the financial assets that are transferred to an SPE which may take several forms, including, but not limited to, servicing, recourse and guarantee arrangements, agreements to purchase or redeem transferred assets, derivative instruments, pledges of collateral and beneficial interests in the transferred assets.
> Refer to “Transfer of financial assets” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group – Note 34 – Transfer of financial assets and variable interest entities in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for a detailed description of continuing involvement in transferred financial assets.

Fair value of beneficial interests
The fair value measurement of the beneficial interests held at the time of transfer and as of the reporting date that result from any continuing involvement is determined using fair value estimation techniques, such as the present value of estimated future cash flows that incorporate assumptions that market participants customarily use in these valuation techniques. The fair value of the assets or liabilities that result from any continuing involvement does not include any benefits from financial instruments that the Group may utilize to hedge the inherent risks.

1 Prepayment speed assumption (PSA) is an industry standard prepayment speed metric used for projecting prepayments over the life of a residential mortgage loan. PSA utilizes the constant prepayment rate (CPR) assumptions. A 100% prepayment assumption assumes a prepayment rate of 0.2% per annum of the outstanding principal balance of mortgage loans in the first month. This increases by 0.2 percentage points thereafter during the term of the mortgage loan, leveling off to a CPR of 6% per annum beginning in the 30th month and each month thereafter during the term of the mortgage loan. 100 PSA equals 6 CPR. | |||||||||||||||||

These sensitivities are hypothetical and do not reflect economic hedging activities. Changes in fair value based on a 10% or 20% variation in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the beneficial interests is calculated without changing any other assumption. In practice, changes in one assumption may result in changes in other assumptions (for example, increases in market interest rates may result in lower prepayments and increased credit losses), which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

Transfers of financial assets accounted for as a sale
US GAAP requires the disclosure of a transaction accounted for as a sale that comprises both of the following: a transfer of financial assets to a transferee and an agreement entered into in contemplation of the initial transfer with the transferee that results in the transferor retaining substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial asset throughout the term of the transaction. In the ordinary course of business, the Group transfers a financial asset accounted for as a sale and, in some instances, enters into an agreement in contemplation of that initial transfer with the same counterparty to retain substantially all of the economics of that transferred financial asset. As of the end of 2Q17 and 4Q16, the Group had agreements in the form of longevity swaps on life insurance policies.
The following table presents information about the transfers of financial assets accounted for as sales with agreements that result in the Group retaining substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred assets at the date of sale and remain outstanding as of the end of 2Q17 and 4Q16, respectively, gross cash proceeds received for assets derecognized at the date of sale and the fair values of transferred assets and the aforementioned agreements as of the end of 2Q17 and 4Q16.

Securities sold under repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions accounted for as secured borrowings
For securities sold under repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions accounted for as secured borrowings, US GAAP requires the disclosure of the collateral pledged and the associated risks to which a transferor continues to be exposed after the transfer. This provides an understanding of the nature and risks of short-term collateralized financing obtained through these types of transactions.
Securities sold under repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions represent collateralized financing transactions used to earn net interest income, increase liquidity or facilitate trading activities. These transactions are collateralized principally by government debt securities, corporate debt securities, asset-backed securities, equity securities and other collateral and have terms ranging from on demand to a longer period of time.
In the event of the Group’s default or a decline in fair value of collateral pledged, the repurchase agreement or security lending transaction provides the counterparty with the right to liquidate the collateral held or request additional collateral.
The following tables provide the gross obligation relating to securities sold under repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions and obligation to return securities received as collateral by the class of collateral pledged and by remaining contractual maturity as of the end of 2Q17 and 4Q16.

As a normal part of its business, the Group engages in various transactions that include entities that are considered variable interest entities (VIEs) and are grouped into three primary categories: CDO/CLOs, CP conduits and financial intermediation.
> Refer to “Variable interest entities” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group – Note 34 – Transfer of financial assets and variable interest entities in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for a detailed description of VIEs, CDO/CLOs, CP conduit or financial intermediation.
Collateralized debt and loan obligations
The Group engages in CDO/CLO transactions to meet client and investor needs, earn fees and sell financial assets. The Group may act as underwriter, placement agent or asset manager and may warehouse assets prior to the closing of a transaction.
Commercial paper conduit
In 2Q16, the Group established Alpine Securitization Ltd (Alpine), a multi-seller asset-backed CP conduit used for client and Group financing purposes. The Group acts as the administrator and provider of liquidity and credit enhancement facilities for Alpine. Alpine discloses to CP investors certain portfolio and asset data and submits its portfolio to rating agencies for public ratings. This CP conduit purchases assets such as loans and receivables or enters into reverse repurchase agreements and finances such activities through the issuance of CP backed by these assets. The CP conduit can enter into liquidity facilities with third-party entities pursuant to which it may purchase assets from these entities to provide them with liquidity and credit support. The financing transactions are structured to provide credit support to the CP conduit in the form of over-collateralization and other asset-specific enhancements. Alpine is a separate legal entity that is wholly owned by the Group. However, its assets are available to satisfy only the claims of its creditors. In addition, the Group, as administrator and liquidity facility provider, has significant exposure to and power over the activities of Alpine. Alpine is considered a VIE for accounting purposes and the Group is deemed the primary beneficiary and consolidates this entity.
The overall average maturity of the conduit’s outstanding CP was approximately 144 days as of the end of 2Q17. Alpine was rated A-1(sf) by Standard & Poor’s and P-1(sf) by Moody’s and had exposures mainly in a reverse repurchase agreement, credit card receivables and car loans.
The Group’s commitment to this CP conduit consists of obligations under liquidity agreements. The liquidity agreements are asset-specific arrangements, which require the Group to purchase assets from the CP conduit in certain circumstances, including a lack of liquidity in the CP market such that the CP conduit cannot refinance its obligations or, in some cases, a default of an underlying asset. The asset-specific credit enhancements provided by the client seller of the assets remain unchanged as a result of such a purchase. In entering into such agreements, the Group reviews the credit risk associated with these transactions on the same basis that would apply to other extensions of credit.
The Group’s economic risks associated with the CP conduit are included in the Group’s risk management framework including counterparty, economic risk capital and scenario analysis.
Financial intermediation
The Group has significant involvement with VIEs in its role as a financial intermediary on behalf of clients.
Financial intermediation consists of securitizations, funds, loans and other vehicles.
Consolidated VIEs
The Group has significant involvement with VIEs in its role as a financial intermediary on behalf of clients. The Group consolidates all VIEs related to financial intermediation for which it was the primary beneficiary.
The consolidated VIEs tables provide the carrying amounts and classifications of the assets and liabilities of consolidated VIEs as of the end of 2Q17 and 4Q16.

Non-consolidated VIEs
The non-consolidated VIEs tables provide the carrying amounts and classification of the assets and liabilities of variable interests recorded in the Group’s consolidated balance sheets, maximum exposure to loss and total assets of the non-consolidated VIEs.
Certain VIEs have not been included in the following table, including VIEs structured by third parties in which the Group’s interest is in the form of securities held in the Group’s inventory, certain repurchase financings to funds and single-asset financing vehicles not sponsored by the Group to which the Group provides financing but has very little risk of loss due to over-collateralization and guarantees, failed sales where the Group does not have any other holdings and other entities out of scope.
> Refer to “Variable interest entities” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group – Note 34 – Transfer of financial assets and variable interest entities in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on non-consolidated VIEs.

The disclosure of the Group’s financial instruments below includes the following sections:
– Concentration of credit risk;
– Fair value measurement (including fair value hierarchy, transfers between levels; level 3 reconciliation; qualitative and quantitative disclosures of valuation techniques and nonrecurring fair value changes);
– Fair value option; and
– Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments not carried at fair value.
Credit risk concentrations arise when a number of counterparties are engaged in similar business activities, are located in the same geographic region or when there are similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly impacted by changes in economic conditions.
> Refer to “Note 35 – Financial instruments” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on the Group’s concentrations of credit risk.
A significant portion of the Group’s financial instruments are carried at fair value. Deterioration of financial markets could significantly impact the fair value of these financial instruments and the results of operations.
> Refer to “Note 35 – Financial instruments” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on fair value measurement of financial instruments and the definition of the levels of the fair value hierarchy.

As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets and liabilities within level 3 presented in the table above may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs.
The Group employs various economic hedging techniques in order to manage risks, including risks in level 3 positions. Such techniques may include the purchase or sale of financial instruments that are classified in levels 1 and/or 2. The realized and unrealized gains and losses for assets and liabilities in level 3 presented in the table above do not reflect the related realized or unrealized gains and losses arising on economic hedging instruments classified in levels 1 and/or 2.
Transfers in and out of level 3
Transfers into level 3 assets during 6M17 were CHF 1,238 million, primarily from trading assets and loans. The transfers were primarily in the credit, fixed income and financing businesses due to limited observability of pricing data and reduced pricing information from external providers. Transfers out of level 3 assets during 6M17 were CHF 1,707 million, primarily in trading assets. The transfers out of level 3 trading assets were primarily in the Strategic Resolution Unit and credit businesses due to increased observability of pricing data and increased availability of pricing information from external providers.
Transfers into level 3 assets during 2Q17 were CHF 674 million, primarily from loans and trading assets. The transfers were primarily in the credit, fixed income and financing businesses due to limited observability of pricing data and reduced pricing information from external providers. Transfers out of level 3 assets during 2Q17 were CHF 525 million, primarily in trading assets and loans. The transfers were primarily in the Strategic Resolution Unit and credit businesses due to increased observability of pricing data and increased availability of pricing information from external providers.
Qualitative disclosures of valuation techniques
Overview
The Group has implemented and maintains a valuation control framework, which is supported by policies and procedures that define the principles for controlling the valuation of the Group’s financial instruments.
> Refer to “Note 35 – Financial instruments” in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 for further information on the Group’s valuation control framework.
The following information on the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs of the various financial instruments, and the sensitivity of fair value measurements to changes in significant unobservable inputs, should be read in conjunction with the tables “Quantitative information about level 3 assets at fair value” and “Quantitative information about level 3 liabilities at fair value”.
Central bank funds sold, securities purchased under resale agreements and securities borrowing transactions
Securities purchased under resale agreements and securities sold under repurchase agreements are measured at fair value using discounted cash flow analysis. Future cash flows are discounted using observable market interest rate repurchase/resale curves for the applicable maturity and underlying collateral of the instruments. As such, the significant majority of both securities purchased under resale agreements and securities sold under repurchase agreements are included in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Structured resale and repurchase agreements include embedded derivatives, which are measured using the same techniques as described below for stand-alone derivative contracts held for trading purposes or used in hedge accounting relationships. If the value of the embedded derivative is determined using significant unobservable inputs, those structured resale and repurchase agreements are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The significant unobservable input is funding spread.
Securities purchased under resale agreements are usually fully collateralized or over collateralized by government securities, money market instruments, corporate bonds, or other debt instruments. In the event of counterparty default, the collateral service agreement provides the Group with the right to liquidate the collateral held.
Debt securities
Foreign governments and corporates
Government debt securities typically have quoted prices in active markets and are categorized as level 1 instruments. For debt securities for which market prices are not available, valuations are based on yields reflecting credit rating, historical performance,
146
delinquencies, loss severity, the maturity of the security, recent transactions in the market or other modeling techniques, which may involve judgment. Those securities where the price or model inputs are observable in the market are categorized as level 2 instruments, while those securities where prices are not observable and significant model inputs are unobservable are categorized as level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Corporate bonds are priced to reflect current market levels either through recent market transactions or broker or dealer quotes. Where a market price for the particular security is not directly available, valuations are obtained based on yields reflected by other instruments in the specific or similar entity’s capital structure and adjusting for differences in seniority and maturity, benchmarking to a comparable security where market data is available (taking into consideration differences in credit, liquidity and maturity), or through the application of cash flow modeling techniques utilizing observable inputs, such as current interest rate curves and observable CDS spreads. Significant unobservable inputs may include price and correlation. For securities using market comparable price, the differentiation between level 2 and level 3 is based upon the relative significance of any yield adjustments as well as the accuracy of the comparison characteristics (i.e., the observable comparable security may be in the same country but a different industry and may have a different seniority level – the lower the comparability the more likely the security will be level 3).
CMBS, RMBS and CDO securities
Fair values of RMBS, CMBS and CDO may be available through quoted prices, which are often based on the prices at which similarly structured and collateralized securities trade between dealers and to and from customers. Fair values of RMBS, CMBS and CDO for which there are significant unobservable inputs are valued using capitalization rate and discount rate. Price may not be observable for fair value measurement purposes for many reasons, such as the length of time since the last executed transaction for the related security, use of a price from a similar instrument, or use of a price from an indicative quote. Fair values determined by market comparable price may include discounted cash flow models using the inputs prepayment rate, default rate, loss severity, discount rate and credit spread. Prices from similar observable instruments are used to calculate implied inputs which are then used to value unobservable instruments using discounted cash flow. The discounted cash flow price is then compared to the unobservable prices and assessed for reasonableness.
For most structured debt securities, determination of fair value requires subjective assessment depending on liquidity, ownership concentration, and the current economic and competitive environment. Valuation is determined based on the Front Office’s own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset. Collateralized bond and loan obligations are split into various structured tranches and each tranche is valued based upon its individual rating and the underlying collateral supporting the structure. Valuation models are used to value both cash and synthetic CDOs.
Equity securities
The majority of the Group’s positions in equity securities are traded on public stock exchanges for which quoted prices are readily and regularly available and are therefore categorized as level 1 instruments. Level 2 and level 3 equities include fund-linked products, convertible bonds or equity securities with restrictions that are not traded in active markets. Significant unobservable inputs may include market comparable price and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) multiple.
Derivatives
Derivatives held for trading purposes or used in hedge accounting relationships include both OTC and exchange-traded derivatives. The fair values of exchange-traded derivatives measured using observable exchange prices are included in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For exchange-traded derivatives where the volume of trading is low, the observable exchange prices may not be considered executable at the reporting date. These derivatives are valued in the same manner as similar observable OTC derivatives and are included in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. If the similar OTC derivative used for valuing the exchange-traded derivative is not observable, the exchange-traded derivative is included in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The fair values of OTC derivatives are determined on the basis of either industry standard models or internally developed proprietary models. Both model types use various observable and unobservable inputs in order to determine fair value. The inputs include those characteristics of the derivative that have a bearing on the economics of the instrument. The determination of the fair value of many derivatives involves only a limited degree of subjectivity because the required inputs are observable in the marketplace, while more complex derivatives may use unobservable inputs that rely on specific proprietary modeling assumptions. Where observable inputs (prices from exchanges, dealers, brokers or market consensus data providers) are not available, attempts are made to infer values from observable prices through model calibration (spot and forward rates, mean reversion, benchmark interest rate curves and volatility inputs for commonly traded option products). For inputs that cannot be derived from other sources, estimates from historical data may be made. OTC derivatives where the majority of the value is derived from market observable inputs are categorized as level 2 instruments, while those where the majority of the value is derived from unobservable inputs are categorized as level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The valuation of derivatives includes an adjustment for the cost of funding uncollateralized OTC derivatives.
Interest rate derivatives
OTC vanilla interest rate products, such as interest rate swaps, swaptions, and caps and floors are valued by discounting the anticipated future cash flows. The future cash flows and discounting are derived from market standard yield curves and industry standard volatility inputs. Where applicable, exchange-traded prices are also used to value exchange-traded futures and options
147
and can be used in yield curve construction. For more complex products, inputs include, but are not limited to correlation, volatility skew, prepayment rate and basis spread.
Foreign exchange derivatives
Foreign exchange derivatives include vanilla products such as spot, forward and option contracts where the anticipated discounted future cash flows are determined from foreign exchange forward curves and industry standard optionality modeling techniques. Where applicable, exchange-traded prices are also used for futures and option prices. For more complex products inputs include, but are not limited to prepayment rate, correlation and contingent probability.
Equity and index-related derivatives
Equity derivatives include a variety of products ranging from vanilla options and swaps to exotic structures with bespoke payoff profiles. The main inputs in the valuation of equity derivatives may include volatility, buyback probability, gap risk and correlation.
Generally, the interrelationship between the volatility and correlation is positively correlated.
Credit derivatives
Credit derivatives include index and single name CDS in addition to more complex structured credit products. Vanilla products are valued using industry standard models and inputs that are generally market observable including credit spread and recovery rate.
Complex structured credit derivatives are valued using proprietary models requiring unobservable inputs such as recovery rate, credit spread and correlation. These inputs are generally implied from available market observable data. Fair values determined by price may include discounted cash flow models using the inputs prepayment rate, default rate, loss severity and discount rate.
Other trading assets
Other trading assets primarily include RMBS loans and life settlement and premium finance instruments. Life settlement and premium finance instruments are valued using proprietary models with several inputs. The significant unobservable inputs of the fair value for life settlement and premium finance instruments is the estimate of market implied life expectancy, while for RMBS loans it is market comparable price.
For life settlement and premium finance instruments, individual life expectancy rates are typically obtained by multiplying a base mortality curve for the general insured population provided by a professional actuarial organization together with an individual-specific multiplier. Individual-specific multipliers are determined based on data from third-party life expectancy data providers, which examine the insured individual’s medical conditions, family history and other factors to arrive at a life expectancy estimate.
For RMBS loans, the use of market comparable price varies depending upon each specific loan. For some loans, similar to unobservable RMBS securities, prices from similar observable instruments are used to calculate implied inputs which are then used to value unobservable instruments using discounted cash flow. The discounted cash flow price is then compared to the unobservable prices and assessed for reasonableness. For other RMBS loans, the loans are categorized by specific characteristics, such as loan-to-value ratio, average account balance, loan type (single or multi-family), lien, seasoning, coupon, FICO score, locality, delinquency status, cash flow velocity, roll rates, loan purpose, occupancy, servicers advance agreement type, modification status, Federal Housing Administration insurance, property value and documentation quality. Loans with unobservable prices are put into consistent buckets which are then compared to market observable comparable prices in order to assess the reasonableness of those unobservable prices.
Other investments
Private equity, hedge funds and other equity investments
Other equity investments principally includes equity investments in the form of a) direct investments in third-party hedge funds, private equity funds and funds of funds, b) equity-method investments where the Group has the ability to significantly influence the operating and financial policies of the investee, and c) direct investments in non-marketable equity securities.
Direct investments in third-party hedge funds, private equity funds and funds of funds are measured at fair value based on their published net asset values (NAVs) as permitted by ASC Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurement. In some cases, NAVs may be adjusted where there is sufficient evidence that the NAV published by the investment manager is not in line with the fund’s observable market data, it is probable that the investment will be sold for an amount other than NAV or there exist other circumstances that would require an adjustment to the published NAV. Although rarely adjusted, significant judgment is involved in making any adjustments to the published NAVs. The investments for which the fair value is measured using the NAV practical expedient are not categorized within the fair value hierarchy.
Direct investments in non-marketable equity securities consist of both real estate investments and non-real estate investments. Equity-method investments and direct investments in non-marketable equity securities are initially measured at their transaction price, as this is the best estimate of fair value. Thereafter, these investments are individually measured at fair value based upon a number of factors that include any recent rounds of financing involving third-party investors, comparable company transactions, multiple analyses of cash flows or book values, or discounted cash flow analyses. The availability of information used in these modeling techniques is often limited and involves significant judgment in evaluating these different factors over time. As a result, these investments are included in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Life finance instruments
Life finance instruments include Single Premium Immediate Annuities (SPIA) and other premium finance instruments. Life finance
148
instruments are valued in a similar manner as described for life settlement and premium finance instruments under the other trading assets section above.
Loans
The Group’s loan portfolio which is measured at fair value primarily consists of commercial and industrial loans and loans to financial institutions. Within these categories, loans measured at fair value include commercial loans, real estate loans, corporate loans, leverage finance loans and emerging market loans. Fair value is based on recent transactions and quoted prices, where available. Where recent transactions and quoted prices are not available, fair value may be determined by relative value benchmarking (which includes pricing based upon another position in the same capital structure, other comparable loan issues, generic industry credit spreads, implied credit spreads derived from CDS for the specific borrower, and enterprise valuations) or calculated based on the exit price of the collateral, based on current market conditions.
Both the funded and unfunded portion of revolving credit lines on the corporate lending portfolio are valued using a loan pricing model, which requires estimates of significant inputs including credit spreads, recovery rates, credit conversion factors, and weighted average life of the loan. Significant unobservable inputs may include credit spread and price.
The Group’s other assets and liabilities include mortgage loans held in conjunction with securitization activities and assets and liabilities of VIEs and mortgage securitizations that do not meet the criteria for sale treatment under US GAAP. The fair value of mortgage loans held in conjunction with securitization activities is determined on a whole-loan basis and is consistent with the valuation of RMBS loans discussed in “Other trading assets” above. Whole-loan valuations are calculated based on the exit price reflecting the current market conditions. The fair value of assets and liabilities of VIEs and mortgage securitizations that do not meet the criteria for sale treatment under US GAAP are determined based on the quoted prices for securitized bonds, where available, or on cash flow analyses for securitized bonds, when quoted prices are not available. The fair value of the consolidated financial assets of RMBS and CMBS securitization vehicles, which qualify as CFEs, are measured on the basis of the more observable fair value of the VIEs’ financial liabilities.
Accrual based loans in the Group’s private, corporate and institutional banking businesses, for which an estimated fair value is disclosed in the table “Carrying value and fair value of financial instruments not carried at fair value” below, include consumer loans relating to mortgages, loans collateralized by securities or consumer finance, as well as corporate and institutional loans relating to real estate, commercial and industrial loans, and loans to financial institutions, governments and public institutions. Fair values for these loans are determined by using a discounted cash flow model. Future cash flows are discounted using risk-adjusted discount rates which are derived from observable market interest rates for the applicable maturity and currency and from counterparty-related credit spreads.
Deposits
Accrual based deposits with a stated maturity, for which an estimated fair value is disclosed in the table “Carrying value and fair value of financial instruments not carried at fair value” below, are generally fair valued by using a discounted cash flow model incorporating the Group’s credit spreads. The estimated fair value of accrual accounted deposits without a stated maturity approximates the carrying amount; however, the value does not include an estimate of the value attributed to the long-term relationships with its customers that in the aggregate adds significant value to the Group’s stable deposit base.
Short-term borrowings and long-term debt
The Group’s short-term borrowings and long-term debt include structured notes (hybrid financial instruments that are both bifurcatable and non-bifurcatable) and vanilla debt. The fair value of structured notes is based on quoted prices, where available. When quoted prices are not available, fair value is determined by using a discounted cash flow model incorporating the Group’s credit spreads, the value of derivatives embedded in the debt and the residual term of the issuance based on call options. Derivatives structured into the issued debt are valued consistently with the Group’s stand-alone derivative contracts held for trading purposes or used in hedge accounting relationships as discussed above. The fair value of structured debt is heavily influenced by the combined call options and performance of the underlying derivative returns. Significant unobservable inputs for long-term debt include buyback probability, gap risk, correlation, volatility, credit spread, mean reversion and price.
Generally, the interrelationships between volatility, correlation, gap risk and credit spread inputs are positively correlated.
Other liabilities
Failed sales
These liabilities represent the financing of assets that did not achieve sale accounting treatment under US GAAP. Failed sales are valued in a manner consistent with the related underlying financial instruments.
Short-term financial instruments
Certain short-term financial instruments are not carried at fair value on the balance sheet, but a fair value has been disclosed in the table “Carrying value and fair value of financial instruments not carried at fair value” below. These instruments include: cash and due from banks, cash collateral receivables and payables and other receivables and payables arising in the ordinary course of business. For these financial instruments, the carrying value approximates the fair value due to the relatively short period of time between their origination and expected realization, as well as the minimal credit risk inherent in these instruments.
149
Sensitivity of fair value measurements to changes in significant unobservable inputs
For level 3 assets with a significant unobservable input of EBITDA multiple, market implied life expectancy (for life finance instruments), buyback probability, correlation, contingent probability, price, volatility, volatility skew or funding spread, in general, an increase in the significant unobservable input would increase the fair value. For level 3 assets with a significant unobservable input of market implied life expectancy (for life settlement and premium finance instruments), capitalization rate, discount rate, prepayment rate, gap risk, recovery rate or credit spread, in general, an increase in the significant unobservable input would decrease the fair value.
For level 3 liabilities, in general, an increase in the related significant unobservable inputs would have the inverse impact on fair value. An increase in the significant unobservable input mean reversion would increase the fair value. An increase in the significant unobservable input basis spread would decrease the fair value.
Interrelationships between significant unobservable inputs
Except as noted above, there are no material interrelationships between the significant unobservable inputs for the financial instruments. As the significant unobservable inputs move independently, generally an increase or decrease in one significant unobservable input will have no impact on the other significant unobservable inputs.
Quantitative disclosures of valuation techniques
The following tables provide the representative range of minimum and maximum values and the associated weighted averages of each significant unobservable input for level 3 assets and liabilities by the related valuation technique most significant to the related financial instrument.

Qualitative discussion of the ranges of significant unobservable inputs
The following sections provide further information about the ranges of significant unobservable inputs included in the tables above. The level of aggregation and diversity within the financial instruments disclosed in the tables above results in certain ranges of significant inputs being wide and unevenly distributed across asset and liability categories.
Discount rate
The discount rate is the rate of interest used to calculate the present value of the expected cash flows of a financial instrument. There are multiple factors that will impact the discount rate for any given financial instrument including the coupon on the instrument, the term and the underlying risk of the expected cash flows. Two instruments of similar term and expected cash flows may have significantly different discount rates because the coupons on the instruments are different.
155
Default rate and loss severity
For financial instruments backed by residential real estate or other assets, diversity in the portfolio is reflected in a wide range for loss severity due to varying levels of default. The lower end of the range represents high performing or government guaranteed collateral with a low probability of default or guaranteed timely payment of principal and interest, while the higher end of the range relates to collateral with a greater risk of default.
Credit spread and recovery rate
For financial instruments where credit spread is the significant unobservable input, the wide range represents positions with varying levels of risk. The lower end of the credit spread range typically represents shorter-dated instruments and/or those with better perceived credit risk. The higher end of the range typically comprises longer-dated financial instruments or those referencing non-performing, distressed or impaired reference credits. Similarly, the spread between the reference credit and an index can vary significantly based on the risk of the instrument. The spread will be positive for instruments that have a higher risk of default than the index (which is based on a weighted average of its components) and negative for instruments that have a lower risk of default than the index.
Similarly, recovery rates can vary significantly depending upon the specific assets and terms of each transaction. Transactions with higher seniority or more valuable collateral will have higher recovery rates, while those transactions which are more subordinated or with less valuable collateral will have lower recovery rates.
Correlation
There are many different types of correlation inputs, including credit correlation, cross-asset correlation (such as equity-interest rate correlation), and same-asset correlation (such as interest rate-interest rate correlation). Correlation inputs are generally used to value hybrid and exotic instruments. Due to the complex and unique nature of these instruments, the ranges for correlation inputs can vary widely across portfolios.
Prepayment rate
Prepayment rates may vary from collateral pool to collateral pool, and are driven by a variety of collateral-specific factors, including the type and location of the underlying borrower, the remaining tenor of the obligation and the level and type (e.g., fixed or floating) of interest rate being paid by the borrower.
Volatility and volatility skew
Volatility and its skew are both impacted by the underlying risk, term and strike price of the derivative. In the case of interest rate derivatives, volatility may vary significantly between different underlying currencies and expiration dates on the options. Similarly, in the case of equity derivatives, the volatility attributed to a structure may vary depending upon the underlying reference name on the derivative.
Market implied life expectancy
Market implied life expectancy is the primary significant unobservable input on such products as life settlement, premium finance and SPIA, and represents the estimated mortality rate for the underlying insured for each contract. This estimate may vary depending upon multiple factors including the age and specific health characteristics of the insured.
Price
Bond equivalent price is a primary significant unobservable input for multiple products. Where market prices are not available for an instrument, benchmarking may be utilized to identify comparable issues (same industry and similar product mixes) while adjustments are considered for differences in deal terms and performance.
Buyback probability
Buyback probability is the probability assigned to structured notes being unwound prior to their legal maturity.
Gap risk
Gap risk is the primary significant unobservable input for fund-linked Constant Proportion Portfolio Insurance products and structures where the payoff may be sensitive to discontinuity in the hedging portfolio.
Mean reversion
Mean reversion is the primary significant unobservable input for callable constant maturity swap (CMS) spread exotics and represents the idea that prices and returns eventually move back towards the historical average.
Funding spread
Funding spread is the primary significant unobservable input for special purpose vehicle funding facilities. Synthetic funding curves which represent the assets pledged as collateral are used to value structured financing transactions. The curves provide an estimate of where secured funding can be sourced and are expressed as a basis point spread in relation to the referenced benchmark rate.
Capitalization rate
Capitalization rate is the primary significant unobservable input for CMBS loans and is used to estimate the potential return on investment. This is done by dividing the yearly income by the total value of the property.
Basis spread
Basis spread is the primary significant unobservable input for non-callable constant maturity treasury-CMS products and is used to determine interest rate risk as a result of differing lending and borrowing rates.
156
EBITDA multiple
EBITDA multiple is a primary significant unobservable input for some equity deals which are benchmarked using industry comparables. The EBITDA multiple may be preferred over other measures because it is normalized for differences between the accounting policies of similar companies.
Contingent probability
Contingent probability is the primary significant unobservable input for contingent foreign exchange forward trades where the delivery or exercise and the premium payment are contingent on an event such as completion of an M&A deal or regulatory approval for a product.
Fair value measurements of investments in certain entities that calculate NAV per share
Investments in funds held in trading assets and liabilities primarily include positions held in equity funds of funds as an economic hedge for structured notes and derivatives issued to clients that reference the same underlying risk and liquidity terms of the fund. A majority of these funds have limitations imposed on the amount of withdrawals from the fund during the redemption period due to illiquidity of the investments. In other instances, the withdrawal amounts may vary depending on the redemption notice period and are usually larger for the longer redemption notice periods. In addition, penalties may apply if redemption is within a certain time period from initial investment.
Investment in funds held in other investments principally involves private securities and, to a lesser extent, publicly traded securities and fund of funds. Several of these investments have redemption restrictions subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors of the fund and/or redemption is permitted without restriction, but is limited to a certain percentage of total assets or only after a certain date.
Furthermore, for those investments held in both trading assets and other investments that are nonredeemable, the underlying assets of such funds are expected to be liquidated over the life of the fund, which is generally up to 10 years.
The following table pertains to investments in certain entities that calculate NAV per share or its equivalent, primarily private equity and hedge funds. These investments do not have a readily determinable fair value and are measured at fair value using NAV.

Nonrecurring fair value changes
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, they are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, for example, when there is evidence of impairment. The Group typically uses nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis in a manner that reflects their highest and best use. Nonrecurring measurements are completed as of the end of the period unless otherwise stated.

The Group has availed itself of the simplification in accounting offered under the fair value option, primarily in the investment banking businesses and International Wealth Management’s Asset Management business. This has been accomplished generally by electing the fair value option, both at initial adoption and for subsequent transactions, on items impacted by the hedge accounting requirements of US GAAP. That is, for instruments for which there was an inability to achieve hedge accounting and for which the Group is economically hedged, the Group has elected the fair value option. Similarly, where the Group manages an activity on a fair value basis but previously has been unable to achieve fair value accounting, the Group has utilized the fair value option to align its risk management reporting to its financial accounting.

The Group is involved in a number of judicial, regulatory and arbitration proceedings concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its businesses. The Group’s material proceedings, related provisions and estimate of the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses that are not covered by existing provisions are described in Note 39 – Litigation in V – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2016 and updated in subsequent quarterly reports (including those discussed below). Some of these proceedings have been brought on behalf of various classes of claimants and seek damages of material and/or indeterminate amounts.
The Group accrues loss contingency litigation provisions and takes a charge to income in connection with certain proceedings when losses, additional losses or ranges of loss are probable and reasonably estimable. The Group also accrues litigation provisions for the estimated fees and expenses of external lawyers and other service providers in relation to such proceedings, including in cases for which it has not accrued a loss contingency provision. The Group accrues these fee and expense litigation provisions and takes a charge to income in connection therewith when such fees and expenses are probable and reasonably estimable. The Group reviews its legal proceedings each quarter to determine the adequacy of its litigation provisions and may increase or release provisions based on management’s judgment and the advice of counsel. The establishment of additional provisions or releases of litigation provisions may be necessary in the future as developments in such proceedings warrant.
The specific matters described include (a) proceedings where the Group has accrued a loss contingency provision, given that it is probable that a loss may be incurred and such loss is reasonably estimable; and (b) proceedings where the Group has not accrued such a loss contingency provision for various reasons, including, but not limited to, the fact that any related losses are not reasonably estimable. The description of certain of the matters includes a statement that the Group has established a loss contingency provision and discloses the amount of such provision; for the other matters no such statement is made. With respect to the matters for which no such statement is made, either (a) the Group has not established a loss contingency provision, in which case the matter is treated as a contingent liability under the applicable accounting standard, or (b) the Group has established such a provision but believes that disclosure of that fact would violate confidentiality obligations to which the Group is subject or otherwise compromise attorney-client privilege, work product protection or other protections against disclosure or compromise the Group’s management of the matter. The future outflow of funds in respect of any matter for which the Group has accrued loss contingency provisions cannot be determined with certainty based on currently available information, and accordingly may ultimately prove to be substantially greater (or may be less) than the provision that is reflected on the Group’s balance sheet.
It is inherently difficult to determine whether a loss is probable or even reasonably possible or to estimate the amount of any loss or loss range for many of the Group’s legal proceedings. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and currently available information and involve a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the type and nature of the proceeding, the progress of the matter, the advice of counsel, the Group’s defenses and its experience in similar
161
matters, as well as its assessment of matters, including settlements, involving other defendants in similar or related cases or proceedings. Factual and legal determinations, many of which are complex, must be made before a loss, additional losses or ranges of loss can be reasonably estimated for any proceeding.
Most matters pending against the Group seek damages of an indeterminate amount. While certain matters specify the damages claimed, such claimed amount may not represent the Group’s reasonably possible losses. For certain of the proceedings discussed the Group has disclosed the amount of damages claimed and certain other quantifiable information that is publicly available.
The Group’s aggregate litigation provisions include estimates of losses, additional losses or ranges of loss for proceedings for which such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Group does not believe that it can estimate an aggregate range of reasonably possible losses for certain of its proceedings because of their complexity, the novelty of some of the claims, the early stage of the proceedings, the limited amount of discovery that has occurred and/or other factors. The Group’s estimate of the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses that are not covered by existing provisions for the proceedings discussed in Note 39 referenced above and updated in quarterly reports (including below) for which the Group believes an estimate is possible is zero to CHF 1.3 billion.
In 2Q17, the Group recorded net litigation provisions of CHF 76 million. After taking into account its litigation provisions, the Group believes, based on currently available information and advice of counsel, that the results of its legal proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial condition. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties of such proceedings, including those brought by regulators or other governmental authorities, the ultimate cost to the Group of resolving such proceedings may exceed current litigation provisions and any excess may be material to its operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.
Mortgage-related matters
Civil litigation
The amounts disclosed below do not reflect actual realized plaintiff losses to date or anticipated future litigation exposure. Rather, unless otherwise stated, these amounts reflect the original unpaid principal balance amounts as alleged in these actions and do not include any reduction in principal amounts since issuance.
Individual investor actions
On June 29, 2017, following a settlement, the Supreme Court for the State of New York, New York County (SCNY), presiding in the action brought by Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank AG, New York Branch dismissed with prejudice all claims against Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (CSS LLC) and its affiliates related to approximately USD 111 million of RMBS at issue.
On June 5, 2017, Phoenix Light SF Ltd. and affiliated entities filed an amended complaint against CSS LLC and its affiliates in the SCNY, reducing the RMBS at issue by approximately USD 81 million; the action now relates to approximately USD 281 million of RMBS.
Rates-related matters
On June 26, 2017, in the multi-district litigation concerning US Dollar LIBOR, which includes multiple putative class actions and individual actions, the only named plaintiff with class claims remaining against a Credit Suisse entity that survived a motion to dismiss withdrew as a class representative. Credit Suisse AG has moved to dismiss this remaining putative class action on the ground that there are no remaining class representatives with claims against it.
On June 10, 2017, Credit Suisse Group AG and affiliates, along with other financial institutions, were named in a second putative class action brought in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) alleging manipulation of the foreign exchange market on behalf of indirect purchasers of foreign exchange instruments. Both putative class actions have been consolidated in the SDNY, and plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on June 30, 2017.
CDS-related matters
On June 8, 2017, Credit Suisse Group AG and affiliates, along with other financial institutions, were named in a civil action filed in the SDNY by Tera Group, Inc. and related entities (collectively “Tera”), alleging violations of antitrust law in connection with the allegation that credit default swap (CDS) dealers conspired to block Tera’s electronic CDS trading platform from successfully entering the market.
Customer account matters
On June 26, 2017, the Geneva prosecutor indicted the former relationship manager in Switzerland for professional fraud, forgery and criminal mismanagement.

Certain wholly owned finance subsidiaries of the Group, including Credit Suisse Group Funding (Guernsey) Limited, which is a Guernsey incorporated non-cellular company limited by shares, have issued securities fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Group. There are various legal and regulatory requirements, including the satisfaction of a solvency test under Guernsey law for the Guernsey subsidiary, applicable to some of the Group’s subsidiaries that may limit their ability to pay dividends or distributions and make loans and advances to the Group.
On March 26, 2007, the Group and the Bank issued full, unconditional and several guarantees of Credit Suisse (USA), Inc.’s outstanding SEC-registered debt securities. In accordance with the guarantees, if Credit Suisse (USA), Inc. fails to make any timely payment under the agreements governing such debt securities, the holders of the debt securities may demand payment from either the Group or the Bank, without first proceeding against Credit Suisse (USA), Inc. The guarantee from the Group is subordinated to senior liabilities. Credit Suisse (USA), Inc. is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of the Group.
As part of an announced program to evolve the Group’s legal entity structure to meet developing and future regulatory requirements and Fed regulation on establishing intermediate holding companies in the US for non-US banks, legal entities are re-parented as subsidiaries of Credit Suisse (USA), Inc.
In order to align the corporate structure of Credit Suisse (Schweiz) AG with that of the Swiss Universal Bank division, during 1Q17, the equity stakes in Neue Aargauer Bank AG, BANK-now AG and Swisscard AECS GmbH held by the Group were transferred to Credit Suisse (Schweiz) AG, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank.
Prior periods are restated to conform to the current presentation to reflect the impact of such transactions.

This document contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. In addition, in the future we, and others on our behalf, may make statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements relating to the following:
– our plans, objectives or goals;
– our future economic performance or prospects;
– the potential effect on our future performance of certain contingencies; and
– assumptions underlying any such statements.
Words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends” and “plans” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements except as may be required by applicable securities laws.
By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks exist that predictions, forecasts, projections and other outcomes described or implied in forward-looking statements will not be achieved. We caution you that a number of important factors could cause results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors include:
– the ability to maintain sufficient liquidity and access capital markets;
– market volatility and interest rate fluctuations and developments affecting interest rate levels;
– the strength of the global economy in general and the strength of the economies of the countries in which we conduct our operations, in particular the risk of continued slow economic recovery or downturn in the US or other developed countries or in emerging markets in 2017 and beyond;
– the direct and indirect impacts of deterioration or slow recovery in residential and commercial real estate markets;
– adverse rating actions by credit rating agencies in respect of us, sovereign issuers, structured credit products or other credit-related exposures;
– the ability to achieve our strategic objectives, including cost efficiency, net new asset, pre-tax income/(loss), capital ratios and return on regulatory capital, leverage exposure threshold, risk-weighted assets threshold and other targets and ambitions;
– the ability of counterparties to meet their obligations to us;
– the effects of, and changes in, fiscal, monetary, exchange rate, trade and tax policies, as well as currency fluctuations;
– political and social developments, including war, civil unrest or terrorist activity;
– the possibility of foreign exchange controls, expropriation, nationalization or confiscation of assets in countries in which we conduct our operations;
– operational factors such as systems failure, human error, or the failure to implement procedures properly;
– the risk of cyberattacks on our business or operations;
– actions taken by regulators with respect to our business and practices and possible resulting changes to our business organization, practices and policies in countries in which we conduct our operations;
– the effects of changes in laws, regulations or accounting policies or practices in countries in which we conduct our operations;
– the potential effects of proposed changes in our legal entity structure;
– competition or changes in our competitive position in geographic and business areas in which we conduct our operations;
– the ability to retain and recruit qualified personnel;
– the ability to maintain our reputation and promote our brand;
– the ability to increase market share and control expenses;
– technological changes;
– the timely development and acceptance of our new products and services and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users;
– acquisitions, including the ability to integrate acquired businesses successfully, and divestitures, including the ability to sell non-core assets;
– the adverse resolution of litigation, regulatory proceedings and other contingencies; and
– other unforeseen or unexpected events and our success at managing these and the risks involved in the foregoing.
We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. When evaluating forward-looking statements, you should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and events, including the information set forth in “Risk factors” in I – Information on the company in our Annual Report 2016.
