Operating environment
In 2Q22, high global inflation prompted central banks to continue raising interest rates. Global equity markets were significantly lower, and volatility increased. Government bond yields continued to increase, and credit spreads widened sharply. The US dollar was strong against other major currencies in 2Q22.
Economic environment
In 2Q22, global growth slowed. In the US, economic activity and business sentiment declined. In China, new waves of COVID-19 prompted mobility restrictions due to ongoing lockdowns, which disrupted economic activity across the country. Chinese authorities began to take steps to loosen restrictions in order to ease supply chain and economic activity disruptions in the future. Elevated energy prices continued to drive inflation higher, creating pressure on household and business spending globally. In particular, natural gas prices in Europe increased sharply at the end of the quarter as geopolitical tensions reduced the flow of gas from Russia.
The breadth and pace of global central banks tightening monetary policies increased in 2Q22. The US Federal Reserve (Fed) increased its policy rate by 125 basis points, started to reduce the size of its balance sheet and signaled that more rate increases were likely in the coming quarters. The Bank of England (BoE) and the Swiss National Bank (SNB) increased policy rates by 50 basis points. The European Central Bank (ECB) increased policy rates by 50 basis points in July 2022 but continued its asset purchase program. The Bank of Japan (BoJ) kept policy rates unchanged and continued asset purchases.
Global equities declined by 14% in 2Q22, driven by tightening of monetary policies, higher than expected inflation, geopolitical tensions and fears of a recession. All major developed equity markets reported negative returns for the quarter. US equities decreased by 17%, underperforming the eurozone which decreased 10%, and Swiss equities which declined by 11% in 2Q22. Emerging market equities decreased by 8%. Within emerging markets, Asia declined 6% and was the best performing region in 2Q22, mainly driven by the performance of China, which was one of the few equity markets with a positive performance. Latin America was the weakest performing region, down 16%, mainly driven by Brazil’s performance. Energy was the best performing sector, but still declined 2%. Defensive sectors like consumer staples, utilities and healthcare outperformed global equities. Consumer discretionary and information technology were the weakest performing sectors as yields increased. World bank stocks declined 13% in 2Q22 but outperformed global equities. European bank stocks decreased 4% in 2Q22, outperforming world banks and global equities (refer to the charts under “Equity markets”). The Chicago Board Options Exchange Market Volatility Index (VIX) increased during the quarter. The Credit Suisse Hedge Fund Index decreased 2% in 2Q22.

In fixed income, the 2-year and 10-year US treasuries inverted again at the beginning of June and stayed relatively flat for the rest of the quarter. Credit spreads sharply increased (refer to “Yield curves” and “Credit spreads” for further information). Investment grade and high yield bonds continued to deliver a negative return in 2Q22. Emerging market sovereign bonds performed worse than investment grade and high yield bonds due to ongoing geopolitical tensions.
Foreign exchange market volatility increased further in 2Q22. This was a consequence of major central banks tightening their monetary policies in response to the global surge in inflation. The US dollar increased against other major currencies. The euro and British pound decreased 5% and 7%, respectively, against the US dollar in 2Q22. The Japanese yen decreased against most of the other major currencies as the BoJ remained the only major central bank still actively trying to exert pressure to lower domestic yields. While the Swiss franc also depreciated against the US dollar, it appreciated 2% against the euro following the SNB’s decision to increase policy rates in June.
Commodity prices, measured by the Credit Suisse Commodity Benchmark, continued rising in the beginning of 2Q22 before pulling back in June and ended the quarter relatively flat. Energy prices increased as oil and natural gas prices rose further amid low inventories and continued efforts to reconfigure global trade. Agriculture prices decreased as supportive crop conditions in the eurozone and the United States helped ease the pressure of low inventories. Industrial metals prices declined, especially the more cyclical sub-markets like copper, as Chinese mobility restrictions weighed on industrial activity. Precious metals ended lower in 2Q22, despite geopolitical tensions. US dollar strength and tightening central bank policies, including rising US real yields, had a negative impact on gold prices.

Results details
Net revenues
In 2Q22, we reported net revenues of CHF 3,645 million, which decreased 29% compared to 2Q21, primarily reflecting lower net revenues in the Investment Bank, Wealth Management and Asset Management. The decrease in the Investment Bank was driven by significantly reduced capital markets revenues, including mark-to-market losses in leveraged finance, and lower fixed income sales and trading revenues, partially offset by increased equity sales and trading revenues as 2Q21 included a loss of CHF 493 million related to Archegos Capital Management (Archegos) in prime services. The decrease in Wealth Management reflected lower other revenues, including a loss on the equity investment in Allfunds Group of CHF 168 million, lower recurring commissions and fees and lower transaction- and performance-based revenues, partially offset by higher net interest income. The decrease in Asset Management reflected lower performance, transaction and placement revenues and reduced management fees.
Compared to 1Q22, net revenues decreased 17%, primarily reflecting lower net revenues in the Investment Bank, mainly driven by reduced capital markets and sales and trading revenues due to challenging operating conditions, including high levels of volatility and a decrease in client activity.
Provision for credit losses
In 2Q22, provision for credit losses of CHF 64 million were mainly related to CHF 55 million in the Investment Bank and CHF 18 million in the Swiss Bank.
Total operating expenses
Compared to 2Q21, total operating expenses of CHF 4,754 million increased 10%, primarily reflecting a 26% increase in general and administrative expenses, mainly reflecting higher litigation provisions. The Group recorded net litigation provisions of CHF 497 million in 2Q22, primarily relating to developments in a number of previously disclosed legal matters, mainly in the Corporate Center and the Investment Bank. Compensation and benefits increased 2%, mainly due to higher salaries, partially offset by lower discretionary compensation expenses and lower deferred compensation awards. 2Q22 included restructuring expenses of CHF 80 million and a goodwill impairment of CHF 23 million. Adjusted total operating expenses in 2Q22 were CHF 4,198 million, an increase of 5% compared to CHF 4,008 million in 2Q21.
Compared to 1Q22, total operating expenses decreased 4%, mainly reflecting a 7% decrease in general and administrative expenses, primarily reflecting lower litigation provisions. Compensation and benefits decreased 3%, mainly driven by lower discretionary compensation expenses, partially offset by higher salaries. Adjusted total operating expenses were stable compared to 1Q22.
Income tax
We previously calculated the provision for income tax expense or benefit during interim reporting periods by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to the income/loss of the year to date reporting period. However, the historical method could sometimes create distortions in the effective tax rate for the period. Since small changes in the estimated income or loss for 2022 would result in significant changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate, we concluded the actual year to date effective tax rate to be the best estimate of the annual effective tax rate. We have therefore used a year to date effective tax rate (discrete method) to calculate income taxes for the period ended June 30, 2022.
7
In 2Q22, the income tax expense of CHF 419 million resulted in an effective tax rate of (35.7)% for the quarter. The main drivers of the effective tax rate were the impact of the change in estimate of the annual effective tax rate, valuation allowances relating to current period earnings, non-deductible litigation provisions, the non-deductible funding costs and shortfall tax charges on share-based compensation delivered in this period. This is partially offset by the impact of the geographical mix of results. Overall, net deferred tax assets decreased CHF 435 million to CHF 2,824 million during 2Q22, primarily driven by the change in accounting estimate.
Regulatory capital
As of the end of 2Q22, our Bank for International Settlements (BIS) common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio was 13.5% and our risk-weighted assets (RWA) were CHF 274.4 billion.
Other information
Management changes
On July 27, 2022, we announced that the Board of Directors has appointed Ulrich Körner as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Group. He will take over this position from Thomas Gottstein, who will step down from August 1, 2022. Ulrich Körner is currently CEO of the Asset Management division of the Group.
Strategic Review
On July 27, 2022, we announced that we are conducting a comprehensive strategic review with the following objectives:
■ Consider alternatives that go beyond the conclusions of last year’s strategic review, particularly given the changed economic and market environment. The goal of the appraisal will be to shape a more focused, agile Group with a significantly lower absolute cost base.
■ Strengthen our global wealth management franchise, universal bank in Switzerland and multi-specialist asset management business.
■ Transform the Investment Bank into a capital-light, advisory-led banking business and more focused markets business that complements the growth of the wealth management and Swiss Bank franchises.
■ Evaluate strategic options for the securitized products business, which may include attracting third-party capital to free up additional resources for the bank’s growth areas.
■ Reduce the Group’s adjusted operating expenses at constant 2021 foreign exchange rates to below CHF 15.5 billion in the medium term, supported by company-wide cost efficiency and digital transformation.
The development and implementation of the new strategy will be overseen by the full Board of Directors and supported by a Board led ad-hoc Investment Bank Strategy Committee, with Michael Klein as Chair and also including Mirko Bianchi, Richard Meddings and Blythe Masters.
We will provide further details on the progress of the strategic review, including specific performance goals, with our third-quarter 2022 results.
As the strategy review and eventual implementation progresses, restructuring costs relating to asset impairments and liability valuations may arise in connection with any business activities we may exit or curtail and their related infrastructure.
Investor Deep Dive
In June 2022, Credit Suisse held an Investor Deep Dive to inform investors about its key priorities and achievements across the Risk, Compliance and Technology & Operations functions as well as in the Wealth Management business.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
In response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, many countries across the world imposed severe sanctions against Russia’s financial system and on Russian government officials and business leaders, and these sanctions have been expanded several times. The Group continues to assess the impact of the sanctions already imposed, and potential future escalations, on its exposures and client relationships. As of June 30, 2022, the Group had a net credit exposure to Russia, after specific allowances and provisions for credit losses and valuation adjustments, of CHF 244 million, primarily related to corporates, individuals and the sovereign. In addition, Russian subsidiaries had a net asset value of approximately CHF 0.3 billion as of June 30, 2022. In 2Q22, CHF 7.2 billion of assets under management were reclassified due to the imposed sanctions, we had net asset outflows relating to non-sanctioned Russia-related clients of CHF 1.4 billion, and less than 3% of assets under management in our wealth management-related businesses are linked to Russian clients. The Group has further reduced Russia related exposures in 2Q22 as the market and counterparty situation evolved, and remaining exposures continue to be subject to ongoing monitoring and management. The Group notes that these developments may continue to affect its financial performance, including credit loss estimates and potential asset impairments. The Executive Board is notified of any material developments and escalations in relation to the Russia crisis response.
Supply chain finance funds matter
As previously reported, in early March 2021, the boards of four supply chain finance funds (SCFF) managed by certain Group subsidiaries decided to suspend redemptions and subscriptions of those funds to protect the interests of the funds’ investors, to terminate the SCFF and to proceed to their liquidation. Credit Suisse Asset Management (Schweiz) AG (CSAM) acts as the portfolio manager of the SCFF.
8
In June 2022, CSAM reached an agreement with Bluestone Resources (Bluestone) and its shareholders for the payment of cash to noteholders, including the SCFF. This agreement includes, among other things: a two-year standstill period, during which no party may take, commence or initiate any action to exercise or enforce any claim in this context against any other party; recurring payments from Bluestone as well as recurring payments from its owners, Bluestone CEO James C. Justice III’s family, of up to USD 320 million to all noteholders; and the sharing by noteholders and the Justice family in the proceeds from any sale of the Bluestone entities, in which noteholders would receive the remaining portion of the USD 320 million not yet paid, plus 50% of the sale proceeds, on an agreed upon basis.
Beginning in 4Q21, we introduced a fee waiver program for clients impacted by this matter wherein certain commissions and fees arising from current and future business transactions may be reimbursed on a quarterly basis, provided certain conditions are met. We incurred negative revenues of CHF 26 million in 2Q22 relating to this fee waiver program, primarily in Wealth Management.
Significant negative consequences of the supply chain finance funds and Archegos matters
There can be no assurance that any additional losses, damages, costs and expenses, as well as any further regulatory and other investigations and actions or any further downgrade of our credit ratings, will not be material to us, including from any impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects, liquidity or capital position. For example, we have suffered and may continue to suffer reputational harm and reductions in certain areas of our business, such as a slowdown in net new asset generation in Asset Management and other divisions, attributable, at least in part, to these matters, and this harm and these reductions can continue to affect our business overall, including our ability to attract and retain customers, clients, investors and employees and to conduct business transactions with our counterparties. Furthermore, steps we have taken beginning in 2021, or plan to take, with respect to risk-reducing measures and capital surcharges, including in response to the Archegos and SCFF matters, have had and can also be expected to continue to have an adverse effect on our results of operations in certain areas of our business.

Performance measures
Credit Suisse measures firm-wide returns against total shareholders’ equity and tangible shareholders’ equity, a non-GAAP financial measure also known as tangible book value. Tangible shareholders' equity is calculated by deducting goodwill and other intangible assets from total shareholders' equity as presented in our balance sheet. In addition, Credit Suisse also measures the efficiency of the firm and its divisions with regard to the usage of regulatory capital. Regulatory capital is calculated as the average of 13.5% of RWA and 4.25% of leverage exposure and return on regulatory capital, a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated using income/(loss) after tax and assumes a tax rate of 30% for periods prior to 2020 and 25% from 2020 onward. For the Investment Bank, return on regulatory capital is based on US dollar denominated numbers. Return on regulatory capital excluding certain items included in our reported results is calculated using results excluding such items, applying the same methodology. Adjusted return on regulatory capital excluding certain items included in our reported results is calculated using results excluding such items, applying the same methodology.
The Group’s economic profit is a non-GAAP financial measure, calculated using income/(loss) before tax applying a 25% tax rate less a capital charge. The capital charge is calculated based on the sum of (i) a cost of capital applied to the average regulatory capital of each of the four divisions; and (ii) a 10% cost of capital applied to the residual of the Group’s average tangible equity less the sum of the regulatory capital of the four divisions. The applied cost of capital for the divisions is 8% for Wealth Management, the Swiss Bank and Asset Management and 12% for the Investment Bank. Adjusted economic profit excluding certain items included in our reported results is calculated using results excluding such items, applying the same methodology.
Management believes that these metrics are meaningful as they are measures used and relied upon by industry analysts and investors to assess valuations and capital adequacy.
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.

Reconciliation of adjustment items
Results excluding certain items included in our reported results are non-GAAP financial measures. Following the reorganization implemented at the beginning of 2022, we have amended the presentation of our adjusted results. Management believes that such results provide a useful presentation of our operating results for purposes of assessing our Group and divisional performance consistently over time, on a basis that excludes items that management does not consider representative of our underlying performance. Provided below is a reconciliation of our adjusted results to the most directly comparable US GAAP measures.

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.
As of the end of 2Q22, 29% of our total assets and 20% of total liabilities, respectively, were measured at fair value. The majority of our level 3 assets are recorded in our investment banking businesses. As of the end of 2Q22, total assets at fair value recorded as level 3 decreased CHF 0.1 billion to CHF 10.1 billion compared to the end of 1Q22, primarily reflecting net realized and unrealized losses, mainly in trading assets and other investments, and net settlements, mainly in loans, partially offset by a positive foreign exchange impact and net transfers in, mainly in loans. As of the end of 2Q22, our level 3 assets comprised 1% of total assets and 5% of total assets measured at fair value, stable compared to the end of 1Q22.
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.

Subsidiary guarantee information
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.
The Group and the Bank have issued full, unconditional and several guarantees of Credit Suisse (USA), Inc.’s outstanding debt securities registered with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which as of June 30, 2022 consisted of a single outstanding issuance with a balance of USD 742 million maturing in July 2032. Credit Suisse (USA), Inc. is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of the Group, and the guarantees have been in place since March 2007. In accordance with the guarantees, if Credit Suisse (USA), Inc. fails to make a 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., but to date there has been no occasion where holders of the debt securities have demanded payment under the guarantees. The guarantee from the Group is subordinated to senior liabilities, and the guarantees from the Group and the Bank are structurally subordinated to liabilities of any of the subsidiaries of the Group or the Bank that do not guarantee the debt securities.

Regulatory developments and proposals
As previously disclosed in our 2021 Annual Report, as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, beginning in February 2022, the US, EU, UK, Switzerland and other countries across the world imposed sanctions against a number of parties, sectors and activities relating to Russia. The US, EU, UK and Switzerland all continue to impose sanctions in response to Russian aggression, including designating and imposing new asset-freeze sanctions on Russian individuals and entities, and a prohibition on US persons from purchasing both new and existing debt and equity securities issued by entities in the Russian Federation.
On June 22, 2022, in order to implement the OECD/G20 project of a minimum tax, the Swiss Federal Council adopted the dispatch on the federal resolution for the introduction of a supplementary tax on large multinational companies. In view of the time pressure, the Federal Council has decided to proceed in stages. The Federal Council is proposing to amend the Federal Constitution by a new Article 129a to create the basis for the implementing legislation. In a second step, the Federal Council is proposing to regulate the minimum taxation by means of a temporary ordinance effective as of January 1, 2024. Afterwards, a federal law will replace the temporary ordinance. The consultation for the temporary ordinance is planned to commence in August 2022 and end in November 2022. The introduction of the minimum tax system may subject Credit Suisse to additional compliance and reporting obligations as well as increased operational costs. The impact on Credit Suisse’s tax rate remains uncertain.
On June 23, 2022, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Fed) announced the results of its annual supervisory stress tests, as implemented pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act. Our US intermediate holding company (IHC) remained above its risk-based minimum capital requirements. Our US IHC’s revised stress capital buffer based on the 2022 stress tests will go into effect October 1, 2022. If our US IHC does not maintain its stress capital buffer above minimum risk-based capital requirements, it will be limited in its ability to pay dividends and make discretionary bonus payments and other earnings distributions.
In 2020, the European Commission presented a “Communication on a Digital Finance Strategy for the EU” and several legislative proposals that form part of the so-called Digital Finance Package: a “Regulation on Markets in Crypto-Assets” (MiCA), a “Digital Operational Resilience Act” (DORA), and a “Regulation on a pilot regime for market infrastructures based on distributed ledger technology” (DLT Pilot Regulation). On June 30, 2022, the Council of the EU and the European Parliament reached a provisional agreement on MiCA, which is a proposed regulation aimed at creating an EU harmonized regulatory framework for the issuance, offering to the public and trading of crypto-assets and stablecoins in the EU. Under MiCA, crypto-asset service providers and issuers of stablecoins will be subject to licensing and conduct of business requirements, including consumer protection rules. MiCA will also create a market abuse regime prohibiting market manipulation and insider dealing in crypto-assets. On May 11, 2022, the Council of the EU and the European Parliament reached a provisional agreement on DORA, which is a proposed regulation aimed at uniforming and strengthening the IT security requirements of European financial entities such as banks, insurance companies and investment firms. Its purpose is to make sure that the financial sector in Europe is able to maintain resilient operations in case of severe operational disruption. On May 30, 2022, the DLT Pilot Regulation was adopted and will be effective on March 23, 2023. It aims to provide European DLT-based trading and securities settlement systems with harmonized licensing and conduct of business rules suited to DLT-based crypto-assets that qualify as financial instruments under the revised Markets in Financial Instruments Directive.
On July 27, 2022, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) published its final rules and guidance for a new duty of care owed by UK financial services firms, including UK authorized firms of the Group, to retail customers (Consumer Duty). The new rules introduce the overarching principle that firms must “act to deliver good outcomes for retail customers”; the principle is supported by four specific outcomes relating to products and services, price and value, consumer understanding and customer support. The rules and guidance also introduce requirements for firms to monitor, and for their management to confirm at least once annually, compliance with the Consumer Duty. The effective date will be July 31, 2023 in respect of new and existing products or services that are open to sale or renewal, and July 31, 2024 for “closed” products or services.

Results by region
A significant portion of our business requires inter-regional coordination in order to facilitate the needs of our clients. The methodology for allocating our results by region is dependent on management judgment. For Wealth Management, results are allocated based on the management reporting structure of our relationship manager organization. For the Investment Bank, trading results are allocated based on where the risk is primarily managed, while also reflecting certain revenue transfers to regions where the relevant sales teams and clients are domiciled.
For Swiss Bank, results are all generated within Switzerland. For Asset Management, results are allocated based on where the product or fund is primarily managed. Operating expenses for the Investment Bank and Asset Management follow the above assumptions, while direct non-compensation and corporate function expenses are allocated to the regions applying relative base salaries as a proxy. Regional results reflect the same adjustments as shown in our divisional results, some of which may be too small to be reflected in the “Results by region” table, which is presented in CHF billions.

Wealth Management
In 2Q22, we reported a loss before taxes of CHF 96 million compared to income before taxes of CHF 770 million in 2Q21. Net revenues of CHF 1,266 million decreased 34% compared to 2Q21, primarily reflecting the impact from our equity investment in Allfunds Group.
Results summary
2Q22 results
In 2Q22, we reported a loss before taxes of CHF 96 million, a decrease of CHF 866 million compared to 2Q21. Net revenues of CHF 1,266 million decreased 34%, mainly reflecting lower other revenues, lower recurring commissions and fees and lower transaction- and performance-based revenues, partially offset by higher net interest income. Other revenues in 2Q22 included a loss on the equity investment in Allfunds Group of CHF 168 million and a loss on the equity investment in SIX Swiss Exchange (SIX) of CHF 9 million. Other revenues in 2Q21 included a gain on the equity investment in Allfunds Group of CHF 317 million and an insurance claim refund of CHF 49 million relating to a major litigation case pertaining to the settled external asset manager matter. Year-to-date losses through the end of 2Q22 on the equity investment in Allfunds Group totalled CHF 521 million compared to gains of CHF 461 million in the same period last year. We recorded a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 11 million compared to a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 24 million in 2Q21. Total operating expenses of CHF 1,373 million increased 18%, mainly driven by higher general and administrative expenses and higher compensation and benefits.
Compared to 1Q22, income before taxes increased CHF 261 million. Net revenues increased 8%, mainly reflecting higher other revenues and higher net interest income, partially offset by lower transaction- and performance-based revenues and lower recurring commissions and fees. Other revenues in 2Q22 included the loss on the equity investment in Allfunds Group and the loss on the equity investment in SIX. Other revenues in 1Q22 included a loss on the equity investment in Allfunds Group of CHF 353 million. We recorded a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 11 million compared to a provision for credit losses of CHF 24 million in 1Q22. Total operating expenses decreased 9%, mainly reflecting lower general and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher compensation and benefits.
Capital and leverage metrics
As of the end of 2Q22, we reported RWA of CHF 62.2 billion, an increase of CHF 1.9 billion compared to the end of 1Q22, mainly due to the foreign exchange impact and movements in risk levels, primarily in credit risk. The increase in movements in risk levels reflected a change in allocations as a result of a transfer of certain businesses between Wealth Management and the Investment Bank, which more than offset a decrease in lending and equity exposures in Wealth Management. Leverage exposure of CHF 234.5 billion was CHF 1.1 billion higher compared to the end of 2Q21, reflecting the foreign exchange impact and higher business usage, largely offset by a decrease in high-quality liquid assets (HQLA).

Results details
Net revenues
Compared to 2Q21, net revenues of CHF 1,266 million decreased 34%, reflecting lower other revenues, lower recurring commissions and fees and lower transaction- and performance-based revenues, partially offset by higher net interest income. Other revenues in 2Q22 included a loss on the equity investment in Allfunds Group of CHF 168 million and a loss on the equity investment in SIX of CHF 9 million. Other revenues in 2Q21 included a gain on the equity investment in Allfunds Group of CHF 317 million and an insurance claim refund of CHF 49 million relating to a major litigation case pertaining to the settled external asset manager matter. Recurring commissions and fees of CHF 408 million decreased 14%, reflecting lower revenues across all categories, including lower investment product fees, the negative impact from the SCFF fee waiver program and lower security account and custody services fees. Transaction- and performance-based revenues of CHF 478 million decreased 11%, mainly driven by lower brokerage and product issuing fees and lower corporate advisory fees from integrated solutions, partially offset by higher revenues from Global Trading Solutions (GTS). These revenues included mark-to-market losses on our fair valued portfolio in 2Q22 related to our APAC Financing Group. Net interest income of CHF 558 million increased 4%, mainly reflecting higher deposit margins, due to higher interest rates, on higher average deposit volumes, partially offset by higher loan margins on lower average loan volumes.
Compared to 1Q22, net revenues increased 8%, mainly reflecting higher other revenues and higher net interest income, partially offset by lower transaction- and performance-based revenues and lower recurring commissions and fees. Other revenues in 2Q22 included the loss on the equity investment in Allfunds Group and the loss on the equity investment in SIX. Other revenues in 1Q22 included the loss on the equity investment in Allfunds Group of CHF 353 million, partially offset by the gains on the sale of real estate of CHF 20 million. Net interest income increased 9%, mainly reflecting higher deposit margins on stable average deposit volumes, partially offset by higher loan margins on lower average loan volumes. Transaction- and performance-based revenues decreased 17%, mainly reflecting lower client activity, lower revenues from GTS and lower corporate advisory fees from integrated solutions. Recurring commissions and fees decreased 3%, mainly reflecting lower discretionary mandate management fees, lower investment product fees and lower security account and custody services fees.
Provision for credit losses
The loan portfolio is comprised of lombard lending, mortgages, ship finance, export finance, aviation and yacht finance and structured corporate lending.
In 2Q22, we recorded a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 11 million, compared to a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 24 million in 2Q21 and a provision for credit losses of CHF 24 million in 1Q22. 2Q22 included a release of non-specific provision overlays for expected credit losses of CHF 20 million relating to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Total operating expenses
Compared to 2Q21, total operating expenses of CHF 1,373 million increased 18%, mainly driven by higher general and administrative expenses and higher compensation and benefits. General and administrative expenses of CHF 505 million increased 43%, mainly driven by higher allocated Group-wide technology, risk and compliance costs, a write-off of certain IT-related assets and higher litigation provisions, partially offset by lower professional services fees. Compensation and benefits of CHF 774 million increased 9%, mainly driven by higher allocated corporate function costs and higher salary expenses, primarily due to headcount-related growth investments.
Compared to 1Q22, total operating expenses decreased 9%, mainly reflecting lower general and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher compensation and benefits. General and administrative expenses decreased 24%, mainly reflecting lower litigation provisions, partially offset by the write-off of certain IT-related assets. Compensation and benefits increased 3%, primarily reflecting higher allocated corporate function costs and higher salary expenses, partially offset by lower discretionary compensation expenses.
Margins
Our gross margin was 73 basis points in 2Q22, a decrease of 28 basis points compared to 2Q21, driven by lower other revenues, lower recurring commissions and fees and lower transaction- and performance-based revenues, partially offset by an 8% decrease in average assets under management and higher net interest income. Compared to 1Q22, our gross margin was eight basis points higher, reflecting higher other revenues, higher net interest income and a 4% decrease in average assets under management, partially offset by lower transaction- and performance-based revenues and lower recurring commissions and fees.
> Refer to “Assets under management” for further information.
Our net margin was negative six basis points in 2Q22, a decrease of 46 basis points compared to 2Q21, mainly reflecting lower net revenues, primarily from the impact of our equity investment in Allfunds Group, and higher total operating expenses, partially offset by the 8% decrease in average assets under management. Compared to 1Q22, our net margin was 14 basis points higher, reflecting lower total operating expenses and higher net revenues, mainly from the impact of our equity investment in Allfunds Group, and lower provisions for credit losses.

Assets under management
As of the end of 2Q22, assets under management of CHF 661.5 billion were CHF 45.5 billion lower compared to the end of 1Q22, driven by unfavorable market movements, structural effects, including de-risking measures related to the sanctions imposed in connection with the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and net asset outflows of CHF 1.4 billion, partially offset by favorable foreign exchange-related movements. Net asset outflows of CHF 1.4 billion reflected outflows mainly from the Middle East and European businesses, including client deleveraging, partially offset by inflows from the Asia Pacific and Latin American businesses.

Results summary
2Q22 results
In 2Q22, we reported a loss before taxes of CHF 1,116 million compared to CHF 16 million in 2Q21. Net revenues of CHF 1,109 million decreased 40% compared to 2Q21, driven by significantly reduced capital markets revenues, including mark-to-market losses of CHF 235 million in leveraged finance, and lower fixed income sales and trading revenues, partially offset by increased equity sales and trading revenues, as 2Q21 included a loss of CHF 493 million related to Archegos in prime services. Total operating expenses of CHF 2,170 million increased 18% compared to 2Q21, mainly reflecting higher general and administrative expenses, primarily relating to higher litigation provisions, as well as higher compensation and benefits. Adjusted operating expenses increased 5% compared to 2Q21.
Compared to 1Q22, income before taxes decreased CHF 1,240 million. Net revenues decreased 43%, reflecting reduced capital markets and sales and trading revenues due to challenging operating conditions, including high levels of volatility and a decrease in client activity. We recorded provision for credit losses of CHF 55 million compared to a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 156 million in 1Q22, which included a release of CHF 155 million pertaining to an assessment of the future recoverability of receivables related to Archegos. Total operating expenses increased 10%, mainly reflecting higher general and administrative expenses, primarily relating to higher litigation provisions. Adjusted operating expenses decreased 2% compared to 1Q22.
Capital and leverage metrics
As of the end of 2Q22, RWA of USD 85.5 billion decreased USD 7.1 billion compared to the end of 1Q22, driven by business reductions, including the impact of resizing our prime services franchise and the benefit from hedges. The decrease also reflected a change in credit risk allocations as a result of a transfer of certain businesses between Wealth Management and the Investment Bank. Internal model and parameter updates in market risk decreased primarily driven by time series updates as COVID-19 volatility rolled out of the two-year VaR window. Leverage exposure of USD 349.0 billion decreased USD 15.0 billion compared to the end of 1Q22, primarily due to business reductions, particularly in prime services.

Results details
Fixed income sales and trading
In 2Q22, fixed income revenues of CHF 600 million decreased 28% compared to 2Q21, reflecting lower revenues across emerging markets, securitized products and global credit products, partially offset by increased macro revenues. Market conditions were characterized by continued geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties resulting in higher levels of volatility for equity and interest rates, widened credit spreads, high levels of inflation and increased energy prices. Emerging markets revenues decreased significantly, driven by lower trading and financing activity. Securitized products revenues decreased compared to a strong prior year, driven by reduced non-agency trading activity and lower asset finance revenues, partially offset by higher agency trading activity. In addition, global credit products revenues decreased, reflecting lower leveraged finance and investment grade trading revenues as lower primary issuance led to reduced trading volumes. These declines were partially offset by higher macro products revenues, driven by increased revenues in our foreign exchange and rates businesses due to increased client activity and high levels of volatility.
22
Compared to 1Q22, fixed income revenues decreased 19%, reflecting lower revenues across securitized products, global credit products and emerging markets and driven by a decrease in client activity. Securitized products revenues decreased, driven by reduced non-agency and agency trading activity. Global credit products revenues decreased, primarily due to lower leveraged finance trading activity driven by increased volatility. Emerging markets revenues decreased, driven by reduced financing activity across Latin America and Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), partially offset by increased trading activity in EMEA. In addition, macro revenues decreased slightly as higher revenues in our foreign exchange business due to increased volatility were more than offset by reduced rates revenues in Asia.
Equity sales and trading
In 2Q22, equity sales and trading revenues of CHF 330 million increased significantly compared to negative revenues in 2Q21, which included a loss of CHF 493 million related to Archegos in prime services. Excluding this loss, equity sales and trading revenues declined 29% compared to 2Q21, reflecting lower prime services and cash equities results, partially offset by higher equity derivatives revenues. Excluding the Archegos loss in 2Q21, prime services revenues decreased, consistent with a decline in client balances, in light of our strategy to resize our franchise. In addition, cash equities revenues decreased due to lower secondary trading revenues, particularly in Europe. These declines were partially offset by higher equity derivatives revenues, reflecting increased flow and structured equity derivatives trading activity due to high levels of volatility.
Compared to 1Q22, equity sales and trading revenues decreased 35%, reflecting lower revenues across equity derivatives, prime services and cash equities trading activity and driven by a decrease in client activity. Equity derivatives revenues decreased, primarily driven by lower structured equity derivatives trading revenues. Prime services revenues declined significantly, consistent with a decline in client balances in light of our strategy to resize our franchise. In addition, cash equities revenues slightly decreased, primarily driven by reduced trading activity in EMEA, partially offset by higher trading revenues in Asia Pacific and the Americas.
Capital markets
In 2Q22, capital markets revenues of CHF 38 million decreased 96% compared to 2Q21, reflecting significantly lower street fees across products and challenging market conditions, including high levels of volatility. Debt capital markets revenues significantly decreased, reflecting reduced issuance activity, particularly in leveraged finance, and mark-to-market losses of CHF 235 million in leveraged finance due to challenging market conditions. In addition, equity capital markets revenues decreased compared to a strong prior year, driven by significantly lower initial public offering (IPO) and follow-on issuance activity.
Compared to 1Q22, capital markets revenues decreased 91%, driven by significantly lower debt capital markets activity, reflecting reduced leveraged finance issuance activity and the mark-to-market losses. In addition, equity capital markets revenues decreased, driven by lower IPO issuance activity due to high levels of market volatility.
Advisory and other fees
In 2Q22, advisory revenues of CHF 183 million increased 44% compared to 2Q21, driven by higher revenues from completed mergers and acquisitions (M&A) transactions.
Compared to 1Q22, advisory revenues decreased 10%, reflecting lower revenues from completed M&A transactions.
Provision for credit losses
In 2Q22, we recorded provision for credit losses of CHF 55 million compared to CHF 19 million in 2Q21 and compared to a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 156 million in 1Q22. The provision for credit losses in 2Q22 included higher non-specific provisions for expected credit losses. The provision for credit losses in 2Q21 was driven by a charge of CHF 70 million, or USD 77 million, related to Archegos, partially offset by the release of non-specific provisions for expected credit losses. 1Q22 included a release of CHF 155 million pertaining to an assessment of the future recoverability of receivables related to Archegos.
Total operating expenses
In 2Q22, total operating expenses of CHF 2,170 million increased 18% compared to 2Q21, primarily reflecting higher general and administrative expenses as well as higher compensation and benefits. General and administrative expenses of CHF 878 million increased 31%, primarily driven by higher litigation provisions, mainly in connection with a previously disclosed matter concerning compliance with records preservation requirements relating to business communications sent over unapproved electronic messaging channels. Compensation and benefits of CHF 1,090 million increased 10%, reflecting the impact of deferred fixed cash compensation granted to certain employees in the Americas and Asia Pacific, and higher allocated Group-wide technology, risk and compliance costs, partially offset by lower deferred compensation expenses from prior year awards. In 2Q22, we incurred restructuring expenses of CHF 60 million.
Compared to 1Q22, total operating expenses increased 10%, primarily reflecting higher general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased 27%, mainly due to the higher litigation provisions. Compensation and benefits were stable, as lower discretionary compensation expenses were offset by the impact of deferred fixed cash compensation granted to certain employees in the Americas and Asia Pacific.

Net revenues
Compared to 2Q21, net revenues of CHF 1,050 million increased 3%, with increases across all major revenue categories. Net interest income of CHF 595 million increased 3%, primarily driven by higher deposit margins on stable average deposit volumes, partially offset by significantly lower treasury revenues. Recurring commissions and fees of CHF 334 million increased 3%, mainly driven by higher revenues from our investment in Swisscard and higher fees from lending activities, partially offset by lower investment product management fees. Transaction-based revenues of CHF 138 million increased 2%, mainly driven by higher fees from foreign exchange client business, partially offset by losses on equity investments. Other revenues in 2Q22 included the gains on the sale of real estate and the loss on the equity investment in SIX.
Compared to 1Q22, net revenues decreased 5%, mainly driven by lower other revenues, partially offset by higher net interest income. Other revenues in 2Q22 included the gains on the sale of real estate and the loss on the equity investment in SIX. Other revenues in 1Q22 included gains on the sale of real estate of CHF 84 million. Net interest income increased 3%, mainly reflecting higher deposit margins on slightly lower average deposit volumes, partially offset by lower treasury revenues.

The loan portfolio is substantially comprised of residential mortgages in Switzerland, loans secured by real estate, securities and other financial collateral as well as unsecured loans to commercial clients and, to a lesser extent, consumer finance loans.
In 2Q22, we recorded provision for credit losses of CHF 18 million compared to a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 21 million in 2Q21 and provision for credit losses of CHF 23 million in 1Q22. The provisions in 2Q22 included CHF 13 million related to the sanctions imposed in connection with the Russian invasion of Ukraine as well as provisions related to our consumer finance business.
Total operating expenses
Compared to 2Q21, total operating expenses of CHF 630 million increased 5%, mainly reflecting higher general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses of CHF 229 million increased 17%, mainly driven by higher allocated Group-wide technology, risk and compliance costs as well as higher advertising and marketing expenses. Compensation and benefits of CHF 365 million were stable, with lower allocated corporate function costs, lower discretionary compensation expenses and lower social security expenses, offset by higher deferred compensation expenses from prior-year awards.
Compared to 1Q22, total operating expenses increased 2%, mainly reflecting higher general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower compensation and benefits. General and administrative expenses increased 19%, mainly driven by higher allocated corporate function costs as well as higher advertising and marketing expenses. Compensation and benefits decreased 7%, primarily reflecting lower allocated corporate function costs.
Margins
Our gross margin was 74 basis points in 2Q22, an increase of three basis points compared to 2Q21, primarily reflecting higher net interest income, a 1.6% decrease in average assets under management and higher recurring commissions and fees. Compared to 1Q22, our gross margin was one basis point lower, mainly driven by lower other revenues, partially offset by a 3.2% decrease in average assets under management and higher net interest income.
> Refer to “Assets under management” for further information.
Our net margin was 28 basis points in 2Q22, a decrease of three basis points compared to 2Q21, driven by higher provision for credit losses and higher total operating expenses, partially offset by higher net revenues. Compared to 1Q22, our net margin was four basis points lower, mainly driven by lower net revenues.
Assets under management
As of the end of 2Q22, assets under management of CHF 544.5 billion were CHF 38.0 billion lower compared to the end of 1Q22, driven by unfavorable market movements and net asset outflows. Net asset outflows of CHF 1.6 billion were mainly driven by outflows in our institutional clients business.

Results detail
Net revenues
Compared to 2Q21, net revenues of CHF 311 million decreased 25%, reflecting lower performance, transaction and placement revenues, management fees and investment and partnership income. Performance, transaction and placement revenues of CHF 5 million decreased 94%, mainly reflecting investment-related losses in 2Q22, and lower performance fees and placement fees. Performance fees in 2Q21 benefitted in particular from the sale of a private equity investment in a fund. Management fees of CHF 258 million decreased 9%, reflecting a combination of lower average assets under management and increased investor bias towards passive products. Investment and partnership income of CHF 48 million decreased 9%, mainly due to lower equity participation income, partially offset by increased investment related gains related to a single investment.
Compared to 1Q22, net revenues decreased 14% driven by lower performance, transaction and placement revenues and lower management fees, partially offset by increased investment and partnership income. Performance, transaction and placement revenues decreased 89%, primarily driven by higher investment-related losses and lower performance fees. Management fees decreased 5%, mainly reflecting lower average assets under management. Investment and partnership income increased 12%, mainly due to higher investment-related gains and equity participation income, partially offset by reduced performance fees.
30
Total operating expenses
Compared to 2Q21, total operating expenses of CHF 279 million decreased 6%, driven by lower compensation and benefits, general and administrative expenses and commission expenses. Compensation and benefits of CHF 158 million decreased 5%, reflecting higher salary expenses in 2Q21, primarily due to the departure of an alternative investment fund team and the sale of a private equity investment in a fund, partially offset by higher deferred compensation expenses from prior-year awards in 2Q22. General and administrative expenses of CHF 96 million decreased 4%, mainly driven by lower professional services fees, reflecting the release of certain expense provisions relating to the wind down and administration of the SCFF, partially offset by higher allocated Group-wide technology, risk and compliance costs.
Compared to 1Q22, total operating expenses decreased 9%, driven by reduced general and administrative expenses, compensation and benefits and commission expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased 16%, mainly driven by lower professional services fees, reflecting the release of certain expense provisions relating to the wind down and administration of the SCFF. Compensation and benefits decreased 4%, primarily driven by reduced discretionary compensation expenses, partially offset by increased deferred compensation expenses from prior-year awards.
Assets under management
As of the end of 2Q22, assets under management of CHF 427.0 billion were CHF 35.0 billion lower compared to the end of 1Q22, mainly reflecting unfavorable market movements. Net asset outflows of CHF 6.1 billion were driven by outflows from traditional investments, primarily related to outflows in fixed income and index solutions, and alternative investments, primarily related to outflows in credit and commodities, partially offset by inflows from investments and partnerships, primarily related to an emerging markets joint venture. We have suffered and may continue to suffer reputational harm attributable, at least in part, to recent events, which, together with the declining market environment, has contributed to a slowdown in net new asset generation and is expected to continue to negatively affect our ability to generate net new assets.

Treasury results also include additional interest charges from transfer pricing to align funding costs to assets held in the Corporate Center and legacy funding costs. The Asset Resolution Unit is separately presented within our Corporate Center disclosures, including related asset funding costs. Certain activities not linked to the underlying portfolio, such as legacy funding costs, legacy litigation provisions, a specific client compliance function and noncontrolling interests without significant economic interest are recorded in the Corporate Center and are not reflected in the Asset Resolution Unit. Other revenues primarily include required elimination adjustments associated with trading in own shares, treasury commissions charged to divisions, the cost of certain hedging transactions executed in connection with the Group’s RWA and valuation hedging impacts from long-dated legacy deferred compensation and retirement programs mainly relating to former employees.
Compensation and benefits include fair value adjustments on certain deferred compensation plans not allocated to the segments and fair value adjustments on certain other long-dated legacy deferred compensation and retirement programs mainly relating to former employees.

Capital and leverage metrics
As of the end of 2Q22, we reported RWA of CHF 50.4 billion, an increase of CHF 1.6 billion compared to the end of 1Q22, primarily driven by the foreign exchange impact. Leverage exposure was CHF 48.3 billion as of the end of 2Q22, a decrease of CHF 10.1 billion compared to the end of 1Q22, mainly due to an accounting change and a decrease in our centrally held balance of HQLA.

Results details
Net revenues
In 2Q22, we reported negative net revenues of CHF 91 million compared to negative net revenues of CHF 94 million in 2Q21 and CHF 173 million in 1Q22.
Negative treasury results of CHF 155 million in 2Q22 primarily reflected losses of CHF 69 million relating to fair value money market instruments, losses of CHF 66 million with respect to structured notes volatility and losses of CHF 19 million relating to fair value option volatility on own debt. In 2Q21, negative treasury results of CHF 116 million primarily reflected losses of CHF 63 million relating to hedging volatility and losses of CHF 52 million with respect to structured notes volatility. In 1Q22, negative treasury results of CHF 254 million primarily reflected losses of CHF 77 million relating to hedging volatility, losses of CHF 58 million relating to fair value option volatility on own debt, losses of CHF 50 million with respect to structured notes volatility, losses of CHF 38 million relating to fair value money market instruments and losses of CHF 30 million relating to funding activities, excluding Asset Resolution Unit-related asset funding costs.
In the Asset Resolution Unit, we reported net revenues of CHF 22 million in 2Q22 compared to negative net revenues of CHF 43 million in 2Q21 and net revenues of CHF 39 million in 1Q22. Compared to 2Q21, the movement was driven by higher revenues from portfolio assets and lower asset funding costs. Compared to 1Q22, the movement was driven by lower revenues from portfolio assets and higher asset funding costs.
In 2Q22, other revenues of CHF 42 million decreased CHF 23 million compared to 2Q21, mainly reflecting the negative valuation impact from long-dated legacy deferred compensation and retirement programs, partially offset by the elimination of gains from trading in own shares. Compared to 1Q22, other revenues were stable.
Total operating expenses
Total operating expenses of CHF 302 million decreased CHF 110 million compared to 2Q21, mainly reflecting a decrease in compensation and benefits, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses. Compensation and benefits decreased CHF 117 million, mainly driven by decreases in deferred compensation expenses from prior-year awards and expenses for long-dated legacy deferred compensation and retirement programs. General and administrative expenses of CHF 297 million increased CHF 28 million, reflecting higher litigation provisions. 2Q22 included litigation provisions of CHF 243 million, mainly related to legacy legal matters, compared to CHF 223 million in 2Q21.
Compared to 1Q22, total operating expenses decreased CHF 245 million, mainly reflecting decreases in general and administrative expenses and compensation and benefits. General and administrative expenses decreased CHF 189 million, mainly reflecting lower litigation provisions. 1Q22 included litigation provisions of CHF 435 million, mainly legacy litigation provisions in connection with mortgage-related matters. Compensation and benefits decreased CHF 50 million, mainly driven by decreases in deferred compensation expenses from prior-year awards and in discretionary compensation expenses.

Assets under management
As of the end of 2Q22, assets under management were CHF 1,453.9 billion, 6.5% lower compared to the end of 1Q22 with net asset outflows of CHF 7.7 billion in 2Q22.
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 division 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. Any such changes 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.

2Q22 results
As of the end of 2Q22, assets under management of CHF 1,453.9 billion decreased CHF 101.0 billion compared to the end of 1Q22. The decrease was driven by unfavorable market movements, structural effects and net asset outflows of CHF 7.7 billion, partially offset by foreign exchange-related movements. Structural effects included certain de-risking measures, outflows and reclassifications of CHF 7.2 billion related to the sanctions imposed in connection with the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Net asset outflows of CHF 7.7 billion in 2Q22 mainly reflected outflows across the following businesses. Net asset outflows of CHF 6.1 billion in Asset Management were driven by outflows from traditional investments, primarily related to outflows in fixed income and index solutions, and alternative investments, primarily related to outflows in credit and commodities, partially offset by inflows from investments and partnerships, primarily related to an emerging markets joint venture. Net asset outflows of CHF 1.6 billion in Swiss Bank were mainly driven by outflows in the institutional clients business. Net asset outflows of CHF 1.4 billion in Wealth Management reflected outflows mainly from the Middle East and European businesses, including client deleveraging, partially offset by inflows from the Asia Pacific and Latin American businesses.

Liquidity and funding management
In 2Q22, we maintained a strong liquidity and funding position. The majority of our unsecured funding was generated from core customer deposits and long-term debt.
Liquidity management
We primarily focus our issuance strategy on offering long-term debt securities at the Group level for funding and capital purposes. We also issue short and medium-term debt securities at the Bank level for funding diversification. Our primary source of liquidity is funding through consolidated entities. Proceeds from issuances are lent to operating subsidiaries and affiliates on both a senior and subordinated basis, as needed; the latter typically to meet going and gone concern capital requirements and the former as desired by management to support business initiatives and liquidity needs.
Our liquidity and funding profile reflects our strategy and risk appetite and is driven by business activity levels and the overall operating environment. We have adapted our liquidity and funding profile to reflect lessons learned from the financial crisis, the subsequent changes in our business strategy and regulatory developments. We have been an active participant in regulatory and industry forums to promote best practice standards on quantitative and qualitative liquidity management. Our internal liquidity risk management framework is subject to review and monitoring by Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA (FINMA), other regulators and rating agencies.
> Refer to “Liquidity and funding management” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information.
Regulatory framework
BIS liquidity framework
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) established the Basel framework for liquidity risk measurement, standards and monitoring. The Basel framework includes a liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) and a net stable funding ratio (NSFR). Credit Suisse is subject to the Basel framework, as implemented in Switzerland, as well as Swiss legislation and regulations for systemically important banks.
The LCR 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 framework, the minimum required ratio of liquid assets over net cash outflows is 100%.
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
The Swiss Federal Council adopted a liquidity ordinance (Liquidity Ordinance) that implements Basel liquidity requirements into Swiss law. Under the Liquidity Ordinance, banks are subject to a minimum LCR requirement of 100% at all times and the associated disclosure requirements.
Since July 1, 2021, banks have been subject to a minimum NSFR requirement of 100% at all times and the associated disclosure requirements. Based on the Liquidity Ordinance, Credit Suisse AG (Bank parent company) is allowed to fulfill the minimum NSFR of 100% by taking into consideration any excess funding of Credit Suisse (Schweiz) AG on a stand-alone basis, and the Bank parent company has an NSFR requirement of at least 80% without taking into consideration any such excess funding. Credit Suisse (Schweiz) AG must always fulfill the NSFR of at least 100% on a stand-alone basis.
> Refer to credit-suisse.com/regulatory disclosures for additional information.
Our liquidity principles and our liquidity risk management framework as agreed with FINMA are in line with the Basel III liquidity framework.
Regulatory developments
On June 3, 2022, the Swiss Federal Council adopted amendments to the Liquidity Ordinance. The revision is intended to ensure that systemically important banks in Switzerland hold sufficient liquidity to absorb liquidity shocks and cover their liquidity requirements in the event of restructuring or liquidation. It considers liquidity risks over a 90-day time horizon that are not covered or not sufficiently covered by the 30-days stress scenario of the LCR. The revised special liquidity requirements for systemically important banks provide for both basic and institution-specific requirements, the latter being determined by FINMA. The special liquidity requirements shall be covered by eligible assets, which include, but are not limited to, available HQLA over and above the LCR requirements and a certain portion of mortgage receivables that are eligible collateral under the SNB emergency liquidity assistance. The revisions will increase the regulatory minimum liquidity requirements for Credit Suisse. The amended Liquidity

Ordinance came into force on July 1, 2022 and will be applicable on January 1, 2024. The revised Liquidity Ordinance will not require any external disclosure of the revised special liquidity requirements for systemically important banks.
Liquidity risk management
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, as 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 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.

Liquidity metrics
Liquidity pool
Treasury manages a sizeable portfolio of HQLA 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. All securities, including those obtained from reverse repurchase agreements, are subject to a stress level haircut in our barometer to reflect the risk that emergency funding may not be available at market value in a stress scenario.
We centrally manage this liquidity pool and hold it at our main operating entities. Holding securities in these entities ensures that we can make liquidity and funding available to local entities in need without delay.
As of the end of 2Q22, our liquidity pool managed by Treasury and the global liquidity group had an average HQLA value of CHF 232.3 billion. The liquidity pool consisted of CHF 140.9 billion of cash held at major central banks, primarily the SNB, the ECB and the Fed, and CHF 91.5 billion market value of securities issued by governments and government agencies, primarily from the US and the UK.
In addition to the above-mentioned liquidity pool, there is also a portfolio of unencumbered liquid assets managed by the businesses, primarily in the Investment Bank division, in cooperation with the global liquidity group. These assets generally include high-grade bonds and highly liquid equity securities that form part of major indices. In coordination with the businesses and the global liquidity group, Treasury can access these assets to generate liquidity if required. As of the end of 2Q22, this portfolio of liquid assets had a market value of CHF 20.3 billion, consisting of CHF 14.9 billion of high-grade bonds and CHF 5.4 billion of highly liquid equity securities. Under our internal model, an average stress-level haircut of 7% is applied to these assets. The haircuts applied to this portfolio 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 the Liquidity Ordinance and the FINMA 2015/2 Circular “Liquidity risks – banks,” as amended (Liquidity Circular), and uses 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.
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 191% as of the end of 2Q22, a decrease from 196% as of the end of 1Q22, representing an average HQLA of CHF 234.9 billion and average net cash outflows of CHF 123.3 billion. The ratio reflects a conservative liquidity position, including ensuring that the Group’s branches and subsidiaries meet applicable local liquidity requirements.
The decrease in the LCR in 2Q22 reflected an increase in net cash outflows, which was partially offset by a higher level of average HQLA. The increase in net cash outflows primarily resulted from a decrease in net cash inflows associated with secured wholesale funding and secured lending activities, and an increase in cash outflows from unsecured wholesale funding, driven by increases in non-operational deposits in unsecured debt. The higher level of HQLA reflected an increase in the amount of securities held during the period.

Net Stable Funding Ratio
Our calculation methodology for the NSFR is prescribed by the Liquidity Ordinance and the Liquidity Circular including associated disclosure requirements. At the end of 2Q22, the level of our NSFR was 132%, an increase from 128% as of end of 1Q22, representing available stable funding (ASF) of CHF 428.8 billion and required stable funding (RSF) of CHF 325.8 billion.
The increase in the NSFR compared to 1Q22 reflected a decrease in RSF, partially offset by a decrease in ASF. The decrease in RSF was mainly attributable to a decrease in our trading inventory (non-HQLA securities), our derivatives portfolio, our loan portfolio and our reverse repurchase transactions backed by non-HQLA, partially offset by an increase caused by our year-to-date loss. The decrease in ASF was primarily a result of a decrease in deposits, mainly from retail clients and non-financial corporates as well as a decrease in long term debt, partially offset by an increase in capital.

Funding management
Funding sources
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.
Our balance sheet funding structure diagram is aligned with the NSFR framework. Loans, which comprise the largest component of our illiquid assets, are funded by our core customer deposits, with an excess coverage of 29% as of the end of 2Q22, stable compared to the end of 1Q22. 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.
![pq](https://capedge.com/proxy/6-K/0001370368-22-000068/x2_0001.gif)
Our core customer deposits totaled CHF 387 billion as of the end of 2Q22, compared to CHF 389 billion as of the end of 1Q22, reflecting a small decrease in our customer deposit base in the private banking and corporate & institutional banking businesses in 2Q22, mainly driven by a decrease in demand deposits, partially offset by an increase in time deposits. Core customer deposits are from clients with whom we have a broad and long-standing 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.

Debt issuances and redemptions
As of the end of 2Q22, we had outstanding long-term debt of CHF 158.0 billion, which included senior and subordinated instruments. We had CHF 41.9 billion and CHF 16.4 billion of structured notes and covered bonds outstanding, respectively, as of the end of 2Q22 compared to CHF 42.1 billion and CHF 15.8 billion, respectively, as of the end of 1Q22.

Credit ratings
A downgrade in credit ratings could reduce our access to capital markets, increase our borrowing costs, require us to post additional collateral or allow counterparties to terminate transactions under certain of our trading and collateralized financing and derivative contracts. This, in turn, could reduce our liquidity and negatively impact our operating results and financial position. Our internal liquidity barometer takes into consideration contingent events associated with a two-notch downgrade in our credit ratings. 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 0.1 billion, CHF 0.6 billion and CHF 0.8 billion, respectively, as of the end of 2Q22, 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. In May 2022, Standard and Poor’s Global Ratings downgraded the long-term issuer credit ratings of Credit Suisse Group AG and Credit Suisse AG, and Fitch Ratings downgraded the long-term issuer default ratings of Credit Suisse Group AG and Credit Suisse AG, in each case by one notch. The outlook on these ratings has been revised from “negative” to “stable”. Also in May 2022, Moody’s Investors Service affirmed the senior unsecured debt ratings of Credit Suisse Group AG and the long-term senior unsecured debt and deposit ratings of Credit Suisse AG, but the outlook on these ratings has been revised from “stable” to “negative”.

Capital management
As of the end of 2Q22, our BIS CET1 ratio was 13.5%, our BIS CET1 leverage ratio was 4.3% and our tier 1 leverage ratio was 6.1%.
Regulatory framework
Credit Suisse is subject to the Basel framework, as implemented in Switzerland, as well as Swiss legislation and regulations for systemically important banks, which include 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 capital metrics fluctuate during any reporting period in the ordinary course of business.
> Refer to “Regulatory framework” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Capital management in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on BIS and Swiss requirements.
BIS requirements
The BCBS, the standard setting committee within the BIS, issued the Basel 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.
Swiss requirements
The legislation implementing the Basel framework in Switzerland in respect of capital requirements for systemically important banks, including Credit Suisse, goes beyond the Basel minimum standards for systemically important banks.
Under the Capital Adequacy Ordinance, Swiss banks classified as systemically important banks operating internationally, such as Credit Suisse, are subject to two different minimum requirements for loss-absorbing capacity: such banks must hold sufficient capital that absorbs losses to ensure continuity of service (going concern requirement), and they must issue sufficient debt instruments to fund an orderly resolution 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 Financial Stability Board’s total loss-absorbing capacity standard.
Additionally, there are FINMA decrees that apply to Credit Suisse, as a systemically important bank operating internationally, including capital adequacy requirements as well as liquidity and risk diversification requirements.

Credit Suisse AG – parent company
Credit Suisse AG (Bank parent company)’s Swiss CET1 ratio decreased from 11.8% as of 1Q22 to 11.4% as of the end of 2Q22, primarily driven by net losses and an adverse foreign exchange impact, despite capital distributions from its UK participations.
In addition to the capital distributions already received in 2022, further significant capital distributions to the Bank parent company are expected from the US and UK participations by the end of 2022, subject to regulatory approval.
> Refer to “FINMA decrees” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Capital management – Swiss requirements in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information.

Other regulatory disclosures
In connection with the Basel framework, certain regulatory disclosures for the Group and certain of its subsidiaries are required. The Group’s Pillar 3 disclosure, regulatory disclosures, additional information on capital instruments, including the main features and terms and conditions of regulatory capital instruments and total loss-absorbing capacity-eligible instruments that form part of the eligible capital base and total loss-absorbing capacity resources, global systemically important bank financial indicators, reconciliation requirements, leverage ratios and certain liquidity disclosures as well as regulatory disclosures for subsidiaries can be found on our website.

As of the end of 2Q22, for the Group, the rebates for resolvability and for certain tier 2 low-trigger instruments for the capital ratios were 2.937% and 0.438%, respectively, and for the Bank, they were 2.937% and 0.439%, respectively. For the Group, the rebates for resolvability and for certain tier 2 low-trigger instruments for leverage ratios were 1.031% and 0.14%, respectively, and for the Bank, they were 1.031% and 0.138%, respectively. Net of these rebates, the gone concern ratio for capital and leverage for the Group were 10.565% and 3.704%, respectively, and for the Bank they were 10.564% and 3.705%, respectively. |
Regulatory developments
In July 2022, FINMA communicated the results of its annual assessment of surcharges for the Group’s market share in Switzerland. In accordance with this assessment, effective June 30, 2022, the Group’s surcharge relating to the capital ratio decreased from 0.72% to 0.36% and the surcharge relating to the leverage ratio decreased from 0.25% to 0.125%. This results in a revised going concern and gone concern requirement of 13.94%, in each case, for the capital ratio and 4.875%, in each case, for the leverage ratio, excluding rebates for resolvability. The table “Swiss capital and leverage requirements for Credit Suisse” has been updated to reflect the results of the annual assessment of surcharges.
In March 2022, FINMA published the results of its annual assessment of the recovery and resolution planning of the Swiss systemically important financial institutions. In accordance with this assessment, effective July 1, 2022, the Group would be eligible for the maximum potential rebates for resolvability relating to the gone concern requirement. Considering the lower surcharge for the Group’s market share in Switzerland, effective July 1, 2022, the rebate for resolvability relating to the capital ratio is 3.338%, and relating to the leverage ratio is 1.125%, for the Group and the Bank.
> Refer to the table “Swiss capital and leverage requirements for Credit Suisse”.
Capital instruments
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 11.2 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 4.1%, both as of the end of 2Q22.
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 15.7 billion and the Higher Trigger Capital Ratio was 5.7%, both as of the end of 2Q22.
> Refer to the table “BIS capital metrics” for further information on the BIS metrics used to calculate such measures.

Our CET1 ratio was 13.5% as of the end of 2Q22 compared to 13.8% as of the end of 1Q22. Our tier 1 ratio was 19.2% as of the end of 2Q22 compared to 19.5% as of the end of 1Q22. Our total capital ratio was 19.4% as of the end of 2Q22 compared to 19.7% as of the end of 1Q22. The decrease in the capital ratios was due to increased RWA and lower capital balances.
CET1 capital was CHF 37.0 billion as of the end of 2Q22, a 2% decrease compared to CHF 37.7 billion as of the end of 1Q22, mainly due to the net loss attributable to shareholders, partially offset by a positive foreign exchange impact and a regulatory adjustment of deferred tax assets on net operating losses (NOL). Additional tier 1 capital was CHF 15.7 billion as of the end of 2Q22, stable compared to the end of 1Q22, reflecting issuances of CHF 1.6 billion offset by redemptions of CHF 1.4 billion and valuation impacts. Tier 2 capital was CHF 481 million as of the end of 2Q22, a 2% increase compared to the end of 1Q22. Total eligible capital was CHF 53.2 billion as of the end of 2Q22, stable compared to the end of 1Q22.
Risk-weighted assets
Our balance sheet positions and off-balance sheet exposures translate into RWA, which are categorized as credit, market and operational 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.
> Refer to “Risk-weighted assets” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Capital management in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for a detailed discussion of RWA.
For capital purposes, FINMA, in line with BIS requirements, uses a multiplier to impose an increase in market risk capital for every regulatory value-at-risk (VaR) backtesting exception above four in the prior rolling 12-month period. In 2Q22, 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” in Risk management for further information.
RWA were CHF 274.4 billion as of the end of 2Q22, stable compared to the end of 1Q22, as the foreign exchange impact was offset by movements in risk levels and internal model and parameter updates in the Investment Bank.
Excluding the foreign exchange impact, the decrease in credit risk was primarily driven by movements in risk levels attributable to book size, mainly due to a decrease in lending exposures in Wealth Management and Swiss Bank, a decrease in derivatives and security financing exposures in Investment Bank, including the impact of resizing our prime services franchise, and a decrease in our equity exposures relating to our investment in Allfunds Group in Wealth Management. The reduction in risk levels in the Investment Bank and the increase in Wealth Management also reflected a change in allocations as a result of a transfer of certain businesses between the divisions.
Excluding the foreign exchange impact, the decrease in market risk was primarily driven by internal model and parameter updates mainly reflecting time series updates as COVID-19 volatility rolled out of the two-year VaR window.
Excluding the foreign exchange impact, the operationalrisk was stable.

Leverage metrics
Credit Suisse has 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. As used herein, leverage exposure consists of period-end balance sheet assets and prescribed regulatory adjustments.

Shareholders’ equity
Our total shareholders’ equity was CHF 45.8 billion as of the end of 2Q22 compared to CHF 44.4 billion as of the end of 1Q22. Total shareholders’ equity was positively impacted by gains on fair value elected liabilities relating to credit risk, foreign exchange-related movements on cumulative translation adjustments and an increase in the share-based compensation obligation, partially offset by a net loss attributable to shareholders, dividends paid and losses in cash flow hedges.

Risk management
As of the end of 2Q22, the Group had a gross loan portfolio of CHF 287.0 billion, gross impaired loans of CHF 3.1 billion and, in 2Q22, an average risk management VaR of USD 45 million.
Key risk developments
We are closely monitoring the following key risk and global economic developments as well as the potential effects on our operations and businesses, including through the reassessment of financial plans and the development of stress scenarios that take into account potential additional negative impacts.
Inflation concerns and recession risk
Annual inflation rates increased in 2021 across all major economies and moved even higher in the first half of 2022 as energy and food prices increased sharply, primarily because of supply chain disruptions which have been further exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the implementation of wide-ranging sanctions against Russia. In the US, the Fed continued to increase the federal funds rate in May and June with the aim to reduce inflation and indicated to the markets that there may be further interest rate increases this year and in 2023. In Europe, the SNB raised its policy rate in June, earlier than expected by the market, and indicated that more rate hikes are anticipated, while the ECB surprised markets with a larger than previously expected first interest rate increase in eleven years at the end of July. Significant increases in interest rates bear the risk of triggering a recession. Economic activity data in Europe deteriorated in 2Q22 as concerns over potential oil and gas shortages and further macroeconomic impacts from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine increased, and high inflation has undermined consumer confidence and business sentiment.
Credit Suisse periodically conducts deep-dive assessments and uses stress scenarios and a range of other risk management techniques to assess the resilience and potential vulnerabilities in its exposures and concentrations should the global economy be impacted by sustained high inflation or deteriorate into recession in the second half of 2022 or in 2023.
China
COVID-19 lockdown measures were eased in China’s major cities at the end of April and economic activity accelerated in May and June. In addition, the authorities have outlined steps which should ease potential supply chain and economic activity disruptions in the future even though the zero-tolerance policy toward COVID-19 pandemic seems to remain in place. The authorities have also announced additional support for the economy. Nevertheless, liquidity and solvency concerns persisted in China’s property development sector in 2Q22, which still have the potential to adversely impact China’s economy and the global markets. We closely monitor the risk management implications of these developments on our lombard loan portfolio in China and on our trading and lending book exposures to Chinese local government- and state-owned enterprises. We are also closely monitoring the accelerating default trend in the onshore and offshore corporate debt market.
Emerging markets
While the headwinds for China’s economy appeared to ease in 2Q22, the challenges facing other emerging market countries increased. Inflation pressures intensified which forced central banks in emerging markets to more aggressively tighten monetary policy. US dollar appreciation also increased the pressure on emerging market currencies and, for some countries, has led to concern over their ability to service US dollar-denominated debt or actual defaults. Domestic economic policy uncertainties have risen in some Latin American countries and in Türkiye. Finally, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has adversely impacted Central European countries and led to acute concerns about food security in some North African countries. Frequent reviews and deep-dives into exposures and vulnerabilities are conducted as part of our country risk limit-setting and monitoring process. Stress scenario analysis is also embedded into the country risk management framework.
Risk portfolio analysis
Credit risk
All transactions that are exposed to potential losses arising as a result of a borrower or counterparty failing to meet its financial obligations or as a result of deterioration in the credit quality of the borrower or counterparty are subject to credit risk exposure measurement and management. Credit risk can arise from the execution of our business strategy in the divisions and includes risk positions such as exposures directly held in the form of lending products (including loans and credit guarantees) or derivatives, shorter-term exposures such as underwriting commitments, and settlement risk related to the exchange of cash or securities outside of typical delivery versus payment structures.

Loans
Compared to the end of 1Q22, gross loans decreased CHF 2.1 billion to CHF 287.0 billion as of the end of 2Q22, mainly driven by decreases in loans collateralized by securities, real estate loans and consumer mortgages, partially offset by the US dollar translation impact and an increase in loans to financial institutions. The net decrease of CHF 2.2 billion in loans collateralized by securities was mainly driven by a decrease in Wealth Management. The net decrease of CHF 1.3 billion in real estate loans was mainly driven by decreases in Wealth Management and the Swiss Bank. Consumer mortgages decreased CHF 0.7 billion, primarily due to a decrease in the Swiss Bank. The net increase of CHF 1.2 billion in loans to financial institutions was primarily driven by an increase in the Investment Bank.
On a divisional level, decreases in gross loans of CHF 3.6 billion in Wealth Management and CHF 1.0 billion in the Swiss Bank was partially offset by an increase of CHF 2.6 billion in the Investment Bank.
Collateralized loans
The table “Collateralized loans” provides an overview of collateralized loans by division. For consumer loans, the balances reflect the gross carrying value of the loan classes “Mortgages” and “Loans collateralized by securities”, of which a significant majority are fully collateralized. Consumer finance loans are not included as the majority of these loans are unsecured. For corporate & institutional loans, the balances reflect the value of mortgages and financial and other collateral related to secured loans, considered up to the amount of the related loans.
Financial collateral is subject to frequent market valuation depending on the asset class. In the Group’s private banking, corporate and institutional businesses, all collateral values for loans are regularly reviewed according to the Group’s risk management policies and directives, with maximum review periods determined by collateral type, market liquidity and market transparency.
> Refer to “Credit risk” in III – Treasury, Risk, Balance sheet and Off-balance sheet – Risk management – Risk coverage and management in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on collateralized loans and collateral valuation.

Impaired loans
Compared to the end of 1Q22, gross impaired loans increased CHF 49 million to CHF 3.1 billion as of the end of 2Q22, mainly reflecting increases in restructured loans and potential problem loans, partially offset by a decrease in non-performing loans.
In the Investment Bank, gross impaired loans increased CHF 182 million, mainly reflecting the impairment of a loan to an aircraft company and a pharmaceutical company. In Wealth Management, gross impaired loans decreased CHF 134 million, mainly driven by the sale of a facility relating to a coal mining company, repayments of a loan in the construction sector, a share-backed loan and a position in aviation finance and an upgrade of a European residential mortgage, partially offset by a newly impaired loan to a coal mining company and a lombard loan, both due to sanctions imposed in connection with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In the Swiss Bank, gross impaired loans increased CHF 8 million and in the Corporate Center gross impaired loans decreased CHF 7 million.
In March 2020, US federal banking regulators issued the “Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus (Revised)” (Interagency Statement). According to the Interagency Statement, short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID-19 crisis to borrowers that were otherwise current would not be considered to be troubled debt restructurings. This includes short-term modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, repayment term extensions or payment delays that are insignificant. The Interagency Statement was developed in consultation with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the Group has applied this guidance. The Group has granted short-term modifications to certain borrowers due to the COVID-19 crisis in the form of deferrals of capital and interest payments that are within the scope of this guidance and the loans subject to those deferrals have not been reported as troubled debt restructurings in restructured loans.

Allowance for credit losses on loans
In 2Q22, the allowance for credit losses increased CHF 30 million to CHF 1.4 billion, primarily reflecting an increase in the Investment Bank, partially offset by a decrease in Wealth Management.
In the Investment Bank, the increase in allowance for credit losses of CHF 55 million mainly reflected specific provisions on a newly impaired engineering services company and a healthcare company, as well as higher non-specific provisions for expected credit losses primarily related to new originations and additional drawdowns. In Wealth Management, the decrease in allowance for credit losses of CHF 28 million was mainly driven by the sale of a facility relating to a coal mining company. In the Swiss Bank, the allowance for credit losses increased CHF 3 million.

Allowance for credit losses on other financial assets
In 6M22, the Investment Bank recorded a release of provision for credit losses of CHF 155 million pertaining to an assessment of the future recoverability of receivables related to Archegos, unchanged from 1Q22. On the Group’s consolidated balance sheet as of the end of 2Q22, 1Q22 and 4Q21, the related allowance is included in the allowance for credit losses on brokerage receivables of CHF 4,215 million, CHF 4,069 million and CHF 4,186 million, respectively.

Russia credit risk exposure
In response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, many countries across the world imposed severe sanctions against Russia’s financial system and on Russian government officials and business leaders, and these sanctions have been expanded several times.
The Group has further reduced Russia-related exposures in 2Q22 as the market and counterparty situation evolved. Compared to 1Q22, our gross credit risk exposure to Russia, before taking into account risk mitigation but net of specific allowances and provisions for credit losses and valuation adjustments, decreased 36% to CHF 664 million as of the end of 2Q22. Our net credit risk exposure to Russia decreased 35% to CHF 244 million for the same period, mainly reflecting exposure reductions to financial institutions. The remaining exposures continue to be subject to ongoing monitoring and management.
> Refer to “Russia’s invasion of Ukraine” in I – Credit Suisse results – Credit Suisse – Other information for further information.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk of financial loss arising from movements in market risk factors. Market risks arise from both our trading and non-trading activities.
> 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 2021 for further information on market risk including our VaR methodology.
Traded market risk
Market risks mainly arise from our trading activities, primarily in the Investment Bank (which includes Global Trading Solutions). Our trading activities typically include fair-valued positions and risks arising from our involvement in primary and secondary market activities, for client facilitation and market-making purposes, including derivatives markets.
The Group is active globally in the principal trading markets, using a wide range of trading and hedging products, including derivatives and structured products. Structured products are customized transactions often using combinations of financial instruments and are executed to meet specific client or internal needs. As a result of our broad participation in products and markets, the Group’s trading strategies are correspondingly diverse and exposures are generally spread across a range of risks and locations.
VaR is a risk measure that quantifies the potential loss on a given portfolio of financial instruments over a certain holding period that is expected not to be exceeded at a certain confidence level. VaR
59
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 2Q22, there were no material changes to our VaR methodology.
We have approval from FINMA, as well as from other regulators for our subsidiaries, to use our regulatory VaR model in the calculation of market risk capital requirements. Ongoing enhancements to our VaR methodology are subject to regulatory approval or notification depending on their materiality, and the model is subject to regular reviews by regulators and the Group’s independent Model Risk Management function.
Information required under Pillar 3 of the Basel framework related to market risk is available on our website.
> Refer to “credit-suisse.com/regulatorydisclosures” for further information.
The tables entitled “Average one-day, 98% risk management VaR by division” and “One-day, 98% risk management VaR” show our traded market risk exposure, as measured by one-day, 98% risk management VaR in Swiss francs and US dollars. As we measure 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. The different risk types are grouped into five categories including interest rate, credit spread, foreign exchange, commodity and equity risks.

1 Diversification benefit represents the reduction in risk that occurs when combining different, not perfectly correlated risk types in the same portfolio and is measured as the difference between the sum of the individual risk types and the risk calculated on the combined portfolio. | |||||||||||||||
2 As the maximum and minimum occur on different days for different risk types, it is not meaningful to calculate a portfolio diversification benefit. |
We measure VaR in US dollars, as the majority of our trading activities are conducted in US dollars.
Average risk management VaR of USD 45 million in 2Q22 decreased 17% compared to 1Q22, primarily reflecting reduced securitized products risk in the Investment Bank and the gradual removal of COVID-19 pandemic volatility dates with extreme scenarios from the historical data set. The increase in foreign exchange risk management VaR is driven by the inclusion of recent foreign exchange rates volatility in the data set.

The histogram entitled “Actual daily trading revenues” compares the actual daily trading revenues for 2Q22 with those for 1Q22 and 4Q21. Actual daily trading revenues is an internally used metric, limited to the trading book only, and excludes the cost of carry, credit provisions and internal revenue transfers. The cost of carry is the change in value of the portfolio from one day to the next, assuming all other factors such as market levels and trade population remain constant, and can be negative or positive. The dispersion of trading revenues indicates the day-to-day volatility in our trading activities. In 2Q22, we had eleven loss days, compared to three loss days in 1Q22 and six loss days in 4Q21.

VaR backtesting
Backtesting is one of the techniques used to assess the accuracy and performance of our VaR model used by the Group for risk management and regulatory capital purposes and serves to highlight areas of potential enhancements. Backtesting is used by regulators to assess the adequacy of the internal model approach-based regulatory capital held by the Group, the calculation of which includes regulatory VaR and stressed VaR. Backtesting involves comparing the results produced by the VaR model with the hypothetical trading revenues on the trading book. A backtesting exception occurs when a hypothetical trading loss exceeds the daily VaR estimate.
For capital purposes and in line with BIS requirements, FINMA increases the capital multiplier for every regulatory VaR backtesting exception above four in the prior rolling 12-month period, resulting in an incremental market risk capital requirement for the Group. For the rolling 12-month period through the end of 2Q22, we had one backtesting exception in our regulatory VaR model, and the model remained in the regulatory “green zone”.
> 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 2021 for further information on VaR backtesting.
> Refer to “Risk-weighted assets” in Capital management for further information on the use of our regulatory VaR model in the calculation of trading book market risk capital requirements.
Non-traded market risk
Non-traded market risk primarily relates to asset and liability mismatch exposures in our banking book. Our businesses and Treasury have non-traded portfolios that carry market risks, mainly related to changes in interest rates but also to changes in foreign exchange rates.
We assume interest rate risks through lending and deposit-taking, money market and funding activities, and the deployment of our consolidated equity as well as other activities at the divisional level. Non-maturing products, such as savings accounts, have no contractual maturity date or direct market-linked interest rate and are risk-managed on a pooled basis using replication portfolios on behalf of the business divisions.
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 present value of interest rate-sensitive banking book positions. This is measured on the Group’s entire banking book. Interest rate risk sensitivities disclosed below are in line with our internal risk management view.
> Refer to credit-suisse.com/regulatorydisclosures for the Group’s publication “Pillar 3 and regulatory disclosures 4Q21 – Credit Suisse Group AG” which includes additional information on regulatory interest rate risk in the banking book in accordance with FINMA guidance.
As of the end of 2Q22, the interest rate sensitivity of a one basis point parallel increase in yield curves was negative CHF 3.3 million, compared to negative CHF 2.3 million as of the end of 1Q22. The change was mainly driven by a duration increase in net interest income hedging activities in addition to regular management of banking book activities.

Balance sheet and off-balance sheet
As of the end of 2Q22, total assets of CHF 727.4 billion decreased 2% and total liabilities of CHF 681.3 billion decreased 2% compared to the end of 1Q22, reflecting lower operating activities, partially offset by the foreign exchange translation impact.
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.
Balance sheet
Total assets were CHF 727.4 billion as of the end of 2Q22, a decrease of CHF 12.2 billion, or 2%, from the end of 1Q22, reflecting lower operating activities, partially offset by the foreign exchange translation impact. Excluding the foreign exchange translation impact, total assets decreased CHF 20.8 billion.
Compared to the end of 1Q22, cash and due from banks decreased CHF 8.5 billion, or 5%, mainly driven by lower cash positions at the Fed and the Central Bank of Ireland, partially offset by higher cash positions at the SNB. Trading assets decreased CHF 5.9 billion, or 5%, primarily reflecting decreases in equity securities and derivative instruments, partially offset by an increase in debt securities and the foreign exchange translation impact. Brokerage receivables decreased CHF 3.3 billion, or 18%, primarily reflecting a decrease in margin lending, driven by the impact of resizing the prime services franchise. Net loans decreased CHF 2.1 billion, or 1%, mainly driven by decreases in loans collateralized by securities, real estate loans and consumer mortgages, partially offset by the foreign exchange translation impact and an increase in loans to financial institutions. Central bank funds sold, securities purchased under resale agreements and securities borrowing transactions increased CHF 8.9 billion or 9%, mainly reflecting an increase in reverse repurchase transactions from banks and customers and the foreign exchange translation impact, partially offset by a decrease in cash collateral. All other assets decreased CHF 1.3 billion, or 2%, mainly due to a decrease of CHF 0.7 billion, or 9%, in securities received as collateral and a decrease of CHF 0.5 billion, or 1%, in other assets, mainly related to lower loans held-for-sale.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors and shareholders of Credit Suisse Group AG Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Credit Suisse Group AG and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of June 30, 2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income and changes in equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “interim financial statements”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Group as of December 31, 2021, 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 March 10, 2022, which included a paragraph describing a change in the manner of accounting for credit losses on certain financial instruments in the 2020 financial statements and a paragraph regarding adjustments made to the 2021 and 2020 financial statements to reflect the change in the composition of reportable segments, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2021, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived. Basis for Review Results These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Group’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Group in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. 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 PCAOB, 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. /s/ PricewaterhouseCoopers AG Zurich, Switzerland July 29, 2022

Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements – unaudited
1 Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Credit Suisse Group AG (the Group) are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the US (US GAAP) and are stated in Swiss francs (CHF). These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021.
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, which, on a normal recurring basis, are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented. The 1Q22 consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income and the 1Q22 consolidated statement of changes in equity have been added for the 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.
Certain accounting changes
As noted in our 2021 Annual Report, the Group identified an accounting issue that was not material to the prior period financial statements. The Group identified this accounting issue with respect to the net balance sheet treatment relating to the presentation of a limited population of certain securities lending and borrowing activities. As a result, balance sheet and cash flow positions for both assets and liabilities relating to these activities were presented on a gross basis and prior periods were revised in the consolidated financial statements and the related notes.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Group has presented these securities lending and borrowing transactions as a single unit of account and as a result these transactions will no longer be presented on a gross basis. The Group did not adjust prior period financial information which continue to reflect a presentation on a gross basis.
> Refer to “Note 1 – Summary of significant accounting policies” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for a description of the Group’s significant accounting policies.
2 Recently issued accounting standards
Recently adopted accounting standards
The following provides the most relevant recently adopted accounting standards.
> Refer to “Note 2 – Recently issued accounting standards” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for a description of accounting standards adopted in 2021.
SAB 121 – Accounting for Digital Asset Custodial Relationships
In March 2022, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) published SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 121, “Accounting for Obligations to Safeguard Crypto-Assets an Entity Holds for Platform users” (SAB 121). SAB 121 introduces interpretive guidance requiring the recognition of a liability and a corresponding asset to account for obligations to safeguard digital assets held for clients. SAB 121 requires additional disclosure of such custodial relationships in the interim and annual financial statements. The guidance within SAB 121 is effective for the interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2022, with retrospective application to the beginning of the fiscal year.
The adoption of SAB 121 did not have a material impact on the Group’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Standards to be adopted in future periods
ASC Topic 326 – Financial instruments – Credit losses
In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-02, “Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (ASU 2022-02), an update to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 326 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 eliminate the accounting guidance for Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) by creditors. The loan refinancing and restructuring guidance in ASC Topic 310 – Receivables will be applied to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The amendments enhance disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and require disclosure of current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases.
77
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022 and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2022-02 on the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
ASC Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurement
In June 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions” (ASU 2022-03), an update to ASC Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in ASU 2022-03 clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. The amendments require new disclosures related to equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions, including the fair value of such equity securities, the nature and remaining duration of the corresponding restrictions and any circumstances that could cause a lapse in the restrictions.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and for the interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2022-03 on the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Strategic review
On July 27, 2022, Credit Suisse announced that it is conducting a comprehensive strategic review with the following objectives:
■ Consider alternatives that go beyond the conclusions of last year’s strategic review, particularly given the changed economic and market environment. The goal of the appraisal will be to shape a more focused, agile Group with a significantly lower absolute cost base.
■ Strengthen its global wealth management franchise, universal bank in Switzerland and multi-specialist asset management business.
■ Transform the Investment Bank into a capital-light, advisory-led banking business and more focused markets business that complements the growth of the wealth management and Swiss Bank franchises.
■ Evaluate strategic options for the securitized products business, which may include attracting third-party capital to free up additional resources for the bank’s growth areas.
■ Reduce the Group’s adjusted operating expenses at constant 2021 foreign exchange rates to below CHF 15.5 billion in the medium term, supported by company-wide cost efficiency and digital transformation.
The development and implementation of the new strategy will be overseen by the full Board of Directors and supported by a Board led ad-hoc Investment Bank Strategy Committee, with Michael Klein as Chair and also including Mirko Bianchi, Richard Meddings and Blythe Masters.
The Group will provide further details on the progress of the strategic review, including specific performance goals, with its third-quarter 2022 results.
As the strategy review and eventual implementation progresses, restructuring costs relating to asset impairments and liability valuations may arise in connection with any business activities the Group may exit or curtail and their related infrastructure.

14 Revenue from contracts with customers
The Group receives investment advisory and investment management fees for services provided in its wealth management businesses which are generally reflected in the line item ‘Investment and portfolio management’ in the table “Contracts with customers and disaggregation of revenues”.
As a fund manager, the Group typically receives base management fees and may additionally receive performance-based management fees which are both recognized as ‘Investment and portfolio management’ revenues in the table “Contracts with customers and disaggregation of revenues”.
The Group’s capital markets businesses underwrite and sell securities on behalf of customers and receive underwriting fees.
The Group also offers brokerage services in its investment banking businesses, including global securities sales, trading and execution, prime brokerage and investment research. For the services provided, such as for example the execution of client trades in securities or derivatives, the Group typically earns a brokerage commission when the trade is executed.
Credit Suisse’s investment banking businesses provide services that include advisory services to clients in connection with corporate finance activities. The term ‘advisory’ includes any type of service the Group provides in an advisory capacity. Revenues recognized from these services are reflected in the line item ‘Other Services’ in the table below.

The Group did not recognize any revenue in the reporting period from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods.
There were no material net impairment losses on contract receivables in 2Q22, 1Q22 and 4Q21. The Group’s contract terms are generally such that they do not result in any contract assets.
Remaining performance obligations
ASC Topic 606’s practical expedient allows the Group to exclude from its remaining performance obligations disclosure any performance obligations which are part of a contract with an original expected duration of one year or less. Additionally any variable consideration, for which it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved, is not subject to the remaining performance obligations disclosure because such variable consideration is not included in the transaction price (e.g., investment management fees). Upon review, the Group determined that no material remaining performance obligations are in scope of the remaining performance obligations disclosure.

Management determined that the unrealized losses on these debt securities were attributable to changes in market valuation driven by interest rate movements and not to credit-related factors. No impairment charges were recorded as the Group does not intend to sell these investments nor is it more likely than not that the Group will be required to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.

Allowance for credit losses on debt securities available-for-sale
A credit loss exists if there is a decline in fair value of the security below the amortized cost as a result of the non-collectability of the amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms.
An allowance for expected credit losses is recorded in the consolidated statement of operations in provision for credit losses and the non-credit-related losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). Subsequent improvements in the estimated credit losses are immediately recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as a reduction in allowance and credit loss expense. A security is written-off if it is considered certain that there is no possibility of recovering the outstanding principal. As of the end of 2Q22 and 4Q21, the Group had no allowance for credit losses on debt securities available-for-sale.

Allowance for credit losses
Estimating expected credit losses – overview
> Refer to “Note 20 – Financial instruments measured at amortized cost and credit losses” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on key elements and processes of estimating expected credit losses on non-impaired and impaired credit exposures.
Macroeconomic scenarios
The estimation and application of forward-looking information requires quantitative analysis and significant expert judgment. The Group’s estimation of expected credit losses is based on a discounted probability-weighted estimate that considers three future macroeconomic scenarios: a baseline scenario, an upside scenario and a downside scenario. The baseline scenario represents the most likely outcome. The two other scenarios represent more optimistic and more pessimistic outcomes with the downside scenario being more severe than the upside scenario. The scenarios are probability-weighted according to the Group’s best estimate of their relative likelihood based on historical frequency, an assessment of the current business and credit cycles as well as the macroeconomic factor trends.
Current-period estimate of expected credit losses on non-impaired credit exposures
The key macroeconomic factors (MEFs) used in each of the macroeconomic scenarios for the calculation of the expected credit losses include, but are not limited to, GDP and industrial production. These MEFs have been selected based on the portfolios that are most material to the estimation of expected credit losses on non-impaired credit exposures from a longer-term perspective. The table “Selected macroeconomic factors” includes the Group’s forecast of selected MEFs for 2022 and 2023, as estimated as of the end of 2Q22 and 4Q21.
As of the end of 2Q22, the forecast macroeconomic scenarios were weighted 50% for the baseline, 40% for the downside and 10% for the upside scenario, unchanged compared to the scenario weightings applicable as of the end of 4Q21 and 1Q22. The MEFs included in the table represent the four-quarter average forecasts for 2022 and 2023 at the end of each reporting period. These MEFs forecasts are recalibrated on a monthly basis. The quarterly series for US real GDP, Swiss real GDP, eurozone real GDP and UK real GDP returned to pre-pandemic levels (i.e., 4Q19) in 2Q21, 3Q21, 4Q21 and 1Q22, respectively, based on the latest published statistical data available. The macroeconomic and market variable projections incorporate adjustments to reflect
89
the impact of successive COVID-19 infection waves, the impact of accelerated monetary policy tightening by the world’s major central banks in response to high inflation rates, the impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on energy and food prices as well as the recent slowdown in real GDP growth in most of the world’s major economies. While GDP and industrial production are significant inputs to the forecast models, a range of other inputs are also incorporated for all three scenarios to provide projections for future economic and market conditions. Given the complex nature of the forecasting process, no single economic variable is viewed in isolation or independently of other inputs.

Forecasts represent the 4-quarter average estimate of the respective macroeconomic factor as determined at the end of each reporting period. |
For events which cannot be adequately reflected in CECL models due to a lack of historical experience the event may be embedded in the baseline scenario. In order to address circumstances where in management’s judgment the CECL model outputs are overly sensitive to the effect of economic inputs that lie outside of their historical range, model overlays are applied. Such overlays are based on expert judgment and are applied in response to these circumstances to consider historical stressed losses and industry and counterparty credit level reviews. Overlays are also used to capture judgment on the economic uncertainty from global or regional developments or governmental actions with severe impacts on economies, such as the lockdowns and other actions directed towards managing the pandemic. As a result of such overlays, provisions for credit losses may not be primarily derived from MEF projections. The Group’s non-specific allowance for expected credit losses as of the end of 2Q22 was stable compared to the end of 1Q22. Stress overlays incorporated to account for potential losses due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine were released as specific provisions did not manifest themselves to the extent originally expected. This release was offset by the impact of the more negative general market sentiment observable during the quarter. Overlays continued to be closely aligned with the macroeconomic forecasts and associated scenario weightings.
Loans held at amortized cost
The Group’s loan portfolio is classified into two portfolio segments, consumer loans and corporate & institutional loans.

Non-accrual financial assets
For loans held at amortized cost, non-accrual loans are comprised of non-performing loans and non-interest-earning loans.
> Refer to “Note 1 – Summary of significant accounting policies” and “Note 20 – Financial instruments measured at amortized cost and credit losses” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on non-accrual loans.
In the Group’s recovery management function covering the Investment Bank, a position is written down to its net carrying value once the credit provision is greater than 90% of the notional amount, unless repayment is anticipated to occur within the next three months. Following the expiration of this three-month period the position is written off unless it can be demonstrated that any delay in payment is an operational matter which is expected to be resolved within a ten-day grace period. In the Group’s recovery management functions for the Swiss Bank and Wealth Management, write-offs are made based on an individual counterparty assessment. An evaluation is performed on the need for write-offs on impaired loans individually and on an ongoing basis, if it is likely that parts of a loan or the entire loan will not be recoverable. Write-offs of residual loan balances are executed once available debt enforcement procedures are exhausted or, in certain cases, upon a restructuring.

Collateral-dependent financial assets
The Group’s collateral-dependent financial assets are managed by a global recovery management function which is divisionally aligned to cover the Investment Bank, Wealth Management and the Swiss Bank.
Collateral-dependent financial assets managed by the recovery management function covering the Investment Bank mainly include mortgages, revolving corporate loans, securities borrowing, trade finance exposures and lombard loans. For mortgages, property, guarantees and life insurance policies are the main collateral types. For revolving corporate loans, collateral includes mainly cash, inventory, oil and gas reserves and receivables. Securities borrowing exposures are mainly secured by pledged shares, bonds, investment fund units and money market instruments. Trade finance exposures are secured by cash and guarantees. For lombard loans, the Group holds collateral in the form of pledged shares, bonds, investment fund units and money market instruments as well as cash and life insurance policies. The overall collateral coverage ratio was stable at 90% as of the end of 2Q22.
Collateral-dependent financial assets managed by the recovery management function for Wealth Management mainly include ship finance exposures, commercial loans, lombard loans, residential mortgages as well as aviation and yacht finance exposures. Ship finance exposures are collateralized by vessel mortgages, corporate guarantees, insurance assignments as well as cash balances, securities deposits or other assets held with the Group. Collateral held against commercial loans include primarily guarantees issued by export credit agencies, other guarantees, private risk insurance, asset pledges and assets held with the Group (e.g., cash, securities deposits and others). Lombard loans are collateralized by pledged financial assets mainly in the form of cash, shares, bonds, investment fund units and money market instruments as well as life insurance policies and bank guarantees. Residential mortgages are secured by mortgage notes on residential real estate, life insurance policies as well as cash balances, securities deposits or other assets held with the Group. Aviation and yacht finance exposures are collateralized by aircraft mortgages of business jets and vessel mortgages on yachts, respectively, as well as corporate and/or personal guarantees, cash balances, securities deposits or other assets held with the Group. Collateral-dependent loans decreased in 2Q22, mainly driven by decreases in aviation finance and export finance, partially offset by increases in residential mortgages and ship finance. The overall collateral coverage ratio decreased from 89% as of the end of 1Q22 to 87% as of the end of 2Q22, mainly driven by decreases in higher collateralized exposures.
Collateral-dependent financial assets managed by the recovery management function for Swiss Bank mainly include residential mortgages and commercial mortgages. Collateral held against residential mortgages includes mainly mortgage notes on residential real estate, pledged capital awards in retirement plans and life insurance policies. For commercial mortgages, collateral held includes primarily mortgage notes on commercial real estate and cash balances, securities deposits or other assets held with the Group. The overall collateral coverage ratio in relation to the collateral-dependent financial assets decreased from 86% as of the end of 1Q22 to 85% as of the end of 2Q22 for residential and commercial mortgages, mainly reflecting slightly lower collateral values driven by the repayment of a larger highly collateralized position in residential mortgages.

In 6M22, the loan modifications of the Group mainly included extended loan repayment terms, including postponed loan amortizations and extended maturity dates, interest rate concessions, a waiver of interest, a reduction of a loan commitment and changes in collateral coverage terms.
In March 2020, US federal banking regulators issued the “Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus (Revised)” (Interagency Statement). According to the Interagency Statement, short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID-19 crisis to borrowers that were otherwise current would not be considered to be troubled debt restructurings. This includes short-term modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, repayment term extensions or payment delays that are insignificant. The Interagency Statement was developed in consultation with the FASB and the Group has applied this guidance. The Group has granted short-term modifications to certain borrowers due to the COVID-19 crisis in the form of deferrals of capital and interest payments that are within the scope of this guidance and the loans subject to those deferrals have not been reported as troubled debt restructurings in restructured loans.

1 Gross amount of goodwill and accumulated impairment include CHF 12 million related to legacy business transferred to the former Strategic Resolution Unit in 4Q15 and fully written off at the time of transfer, in addition to the divisions disclosed. |
In accordance with US GAAP, the Group continually assesses whether or not there has been a triggering event requiring a review of goodwill.
Subsequent to the creation of the new segment structure, effective January 1, 2022, a portion of the Wealth Management business was transferred to the Investment Bank. Goodwill is reallocated between reporting units on a relative fair value basis. The Group concluded that the goodwill transferred to the Investment Banking reporting unit of CHF 23 million was fully impaired.
There were no other events during 2Q22 that constituted a triggering event.
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, intangible assets and other CET1 capital relevant adjustments. 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 applies a combination of the market approach and the income approach. Under the market approach, consideration is 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 is applied that reflects the risk and uncertainty related to the reporting unit’s projected cash flows, which were determined from the Group’s financial plan.
In determining the estimated fair value, the Group relies upon its latest five-year financial plan. Estimates of the Group’s future earnings potential, and that of the reporting units, involve considerable judgment, including management’s view on future changes in market cycles, the regulatory environment and the anticipated result of the implementation of business strategies, competitive factors and assumptions concerning the retention of key employees.
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 or the future outlook adversely differ from management’s 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.

24 Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities
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 over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives (OTC derivatives) mainly under 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 or terms exist, fair values are recorded on a gross basis.
Exchange-traded derivatives or OTC-cleared derivatives, which 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 28 – 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 certain bifurcatable hybrid debt instruments which the Group did not elect to account for at fair value. However, these bifurcated embedded derivatives are generally not subject to enforceable master netting agreements and are not recorded as derivative instruments under trading assets and liabilities or other assets and other liabilities. Information on bifurcated embedded derivatives has therefore not been included in the offsetting disclosures.
The following table presents the gross amount of derivatives subject to enforceable master netting agreements by contract and transaction type, the amount of offsetting, the amount of derivatives not subject to enforceable master netting agreements and the net amount presented in the consolidated balance sheets.

Reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements and securities lending and borrowing transactions
Reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements are generally covered by master repurchase 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. Master repurchase agreements also include payment or settlement netting provisions in the normal course of business that state that all amounts in the same currency payable by each party to the other under any transaction or otherwise under the master repurchase agreement on the same date shall be set off.
As permitted by US GAAP the Group has elected to net transactions under such agreements in the consolidated balance sheet when specific conditions are met. Transactions are netted if, among other conditions, they are executed with the same counterparty, have the same explicit settlement date specified at the inception of the transactions, are settled through the same securities transfer system and are subject to the same enforceable 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).
104
Securities lending and borrowing transactions are generally executed under 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. As is the case in the Group’s normal course of business, a significant portion of the collateral received that may be sold or repledged was sold or repledged as of the end of 2Q22 and 4Q21. 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.

25 Tax
The Group previously calculated the provision for income tax expense or benefit during interim reporting periods by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to the income/loss of the year to date reporting period. However, the historical method could sometimes create distortions in the effective tax rate for the period. Since small changes in the estimated income/loss for 2022 would result in significant changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate, it was concluded the actual year to date effective tax rate to be the best estimate of the annual effective tax rate as permitted by ASC Topic 740 – Income Taxes – Interim Reporting. The Group therefore used a year to date effective tax rate (discrete method) to calculate the 2Q22 income tax expense.
The 2Q22 income tax expense of CHF 419 million resulted in an effective tax rate of (35.7)% for the quarter. The main drivers of the effective tax rate were the impact of the change in estimate of the annual effective tax rate, valuation allowances relating to current period earnings, non-deductible litigation provisions, non-deductible funding costs and shortfall tax charges on share-based compensation delivered in this period. This was partially offset by the impact of the geographical mix of results. The details of the 2Q22 tax rate reconciliation resulting from applying the year to date effective tax rate are outlined below.
Net deferred tax assets related to NOL, 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 NOL 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 framework. Valuation allowances have been allocated against such deferred tax assets on NOL 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, 2022, the Group had accumulated undistributed earnings from foreign subsidiaries of CHF 20.1 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, Germany, 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 164 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: Switzerland – 2019 (federal and Zurich cantonal level); Brazil – 2017; the UK – 2012, and the US – 2010.

Disclosures relating to contingent credit risk
Certain of the Group’s derivative instruments contain provisions that require the maintenance of contractually specified credit ratings from each of the major credit rating agencies. If the ratings fall below the level specified in the contract, the counterparties to the agreement 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 the contractually specified credit ratings. Such derivative contracts are reflected at close-out costs.
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 that could be called by counterparties in the event of a one-, two-, or three-notch downgrade in the contractually specified credit ratings. 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 12.0 billion and CHF 12.0 billion as of the end of 2Q22 and 4Q21 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”.

29 Guarantees and commitments
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.
> Refer to “Guarantees” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group – Note 34 – Guarantees and commitments in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 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 6.0 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, 2021 to June 30, 2022 was CHF 0.5 billion. These deposit insurance guarantees were reflected in other guarantees. These deposit insurance guarantees were reflected in other guarantees. For the period July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023, the Group’s share in the deposit insurance guarantee program based on FINMA’s estimate will be CHF 0.5 billon.
Representations and warranties on residential mortgage loans sold
In connection with the Investment Bank 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 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
115
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.
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.
> Refer to “Note 33 – Litigation” for further information.
Disposal-related contingencies and other indemnifications
The Group has certain guarantees for which its maximum contingent liability cannot be quantified. These guarantees include disposal-related contingencies in connection with the sale of assets or businesses, and other indemnifications. These guarantees are not reflected in the “Guarantees” table.
> Refer to “Disposal-related contingencies and other indemnifications” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group – Note 34 – Guarantees and commitments in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for a description of these guarantees.

30 Transfers of financial assets and variable interest entities
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 for Group tax or regulatory purposes.
Transfers of financial assets
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), residential mortgage-backed securities (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. Third-party guarantees may 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. 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 re-securitize an existing security to give the investor an investment with different risk ratings or characteristics.
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 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 6M22 and 6M21 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 still has continuing involvement, 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.

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.

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.
119
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 provides the counterparty with the right to liquidate the collateral held or request additional collateral. Similarly, in the event of the Group’s default, the securities lending transaction provides the counterparty the right to liquidate the securities borrowed.
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 2Q22 and 4Q21.

Variable interest entities
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: collateralized debt obligations (CDOs)/CLOs, CP conduits and financial intermediation.
> Refer to “Variable interest entities” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group – Note 35 – Transfers of financial assets and variable interest entities in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 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 and, in the case of CLOs, loans. 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
The Group acts as the administrator and provider of liquidity and credit enhancement facilities for Alpine Securitization Ltd (Alpine), a multi-seller asset-backed CP conduit used for client and Group financing purposes. Alpine discloses to CP investors certain portfolio and asset data and submits its portfolio to rating agencies for public ratings on its CP. 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. In addition to CP, Alpine may also issue term notes with maturities up to 30 months. The Group (including Alpine) can enter into liquidity facilities with third-party entities pursuant to which it may be required to purchase assets from these entities to provide them with liquidity and credit support. The financing transactions are structured to provide credit support 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 Alpine’s outstanding CP was approximately 174 days as of the end of 2Q22. Alpine’s CP is rated A-1(sf) by Standard & Poor’s and P-1(sf) by Moody’s and had exposures mainly in reverse repurchase agreements with a Group entity, solar loans and leases, consumer loans and aircraft loans and leases.
The Group’s financial commitment to this CP conduit consists of obligations under liquidity agreements. The liquidity agreements are asset-specific arrangements, which require the Group to provide short-term financing to the CP conduit or to purchase assets from the CP conduit in certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, a lack of liquidity in the CP market such that the CP conduit cannot refinance its obligations or 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 enters into liquidity facilities with CP conduits administrated and sponsored by third parties. These third-party CP conduits are considered to be VIEs for accounting purposes. The Group is not the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate these third-party CP conduits. The Group’s financial commitment to these third-party CP conduits consists of obligations under liquidity agreements. The liquidity agreements are asset-specific arrangements, which require the Group to provide short-term financing to the third-party CP conduits or to purchase assets from these CP conduits in certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, a lack of liquidity in the CP market such that the CP conduits cannot refinance their obligations or a default of an underlying asset. The asset-specific credit enhancements, if any, 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. In some situations, the Group can enter into liquidity facilities with these third-party CP conduits through Alpine.
The Group’s economic risks associated with the Alpine CP conduit and the third-party CP conduits 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 is the primary beneficiary.
The consolidated VIEs table provides the carrying amounts and classifications of the assets and liabilities of consolidated VIEs as of the end of 2Q22 and 4Q21.

31 Financial instruments
The disclosure of the Group’s financial instruments includes the following sections:
■ Concentration of credit risk;
■ Fair value measurement (including fair value hierarchy; level 3 reconciliation; transfers in and out of level 3; quantitative disclosures of valuation techniques; and qualitative discussion of significant unobservable inputs);
■ Fair value option; and
■ Financial instruments not carried at fair value.
Concentration of credit risk
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 36 – Financial instruments” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on the Group’s concentration of credit risk.
Fair value measurement
A significant portion of the Group’s financial instruments is 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 36 – Financial instruments” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on fair value measurement of financial instruments and the definition of the levels of the fair value hierarchy.
Qualitative disclosures of valuation techniques
Information on the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs of the various financial instruments and the section “Uncertainty of fair value measurements at the reporting date from the use of significant unobservable inputs” should be read in conjunction with the tables “Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis”, “Quantitative information about level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis” and “Quantitative information about level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis”.
> Refer to “Note 36 – Financial instruments” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on the Group’s valuation techniques.

Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that have been classified within level 3. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets and liabilities within level 3 presented in the tables 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 tables above do not reflect the related realized or unrealized gains and losses arising on economic hedging instruments classified in levels 1 and/or 2.
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.
Transfers in and out of level 3
Transfers into level 3 assets during 6M22 were CHF 1,563 million, primarily from trading assets and loans. These transfers were primarily in the GTS and securitized products businesses, due to limited observability of pricing data and reduced pricing information from external providers. Transfers out of level 3 assets during 6M22 were CHF 1,605 million, primarily in trading assets and loans. These transfers were mainly related to GTS and securitized products and prime services businesses, due to improved observability of pricing data and increased availability of pricing information from external providers.
Transfers into level 3 liabilities during 6M22 were CHF 2,280 million, primarily from long-term debt and trading liabilities. These transfers were primarily in structured notes over two years arising from a change in the observability of pricing data. Transfers out of level 3 liabilities of CHF 6,269 million in 6M22 were primarily from long-term debt. These transfers were primarily in structured notes over two years arising from a change in the observability of pricing data.
Transfers into level 3 assets during 2Q22 were CHF 879 million, primarily from trading assets and loans. These transfers were primarily in the GTS, securitized products and APAC Financing Group businesses, due to limited observability of pricing data and reduced pricing information from external providers. Transfers out of level 3 assets during 2Q22 were CHF 708 million, primarily in trading assets and loans. These transfers were mainly related to GTS and prime services businesses, due to improved observability of pricing data and increased availability of pricing information from external providers.
Transfer into level 3 liabilities during 2Q22 were CHF 1,237 million, primarily from long-term debt. These transfers were primarily in structured notes over two years arising from a change in the observability of pricing data. Transfers out of level 3 liabilities of CHF 2,714 million in 2Q22, primarily from long-term debt. These transfers were primarily in structured notes over two years arising from a change in the observability of pricing data.
Uncertainty of fair value measurements at the reporting date from the use of significant unobservable inputs
For level 3 assets with significant unobservable inputs of buyback probability, contingent probability, dividend yield, mortality rate, price, recovery rate, volatility or unadjusted net asset value (NAV), in general, an increase in the significant unobservable input would increase the fair value. For level 3 assets with significant unobservable inputs of correlation, credit spread, default rate, discount rate, fund gap risk, gap risk, market implied life expectancy (for life settlement and premium finance instruments), mean reversion, prepayment rate or tax swap rate, 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 an inverse impact on fair value. An increase in the significant unobservable inputs contingent probability, credit spread, discount rate, fund gap risk, gap risk, market implied life expectancy, mortality rate or price would increase the fair value. An increase in the significant unobservable inputs of buyback probability, correlation, dividend yield, mean reversion, prepayment rate, unadjusted NAV or volatility 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 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.
> Refer to “Note 36 – Financial instruments” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on the Group’s qualitative discussion of the ranges of signification unobservable inputs.
Investment funds measured at net asset value per share
Certain investment funds are measured at net asset value per share.
> Refer to “Note 36 – Financial instruments” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on investment funds measured at net asset value per share.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
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.
> Refer to “Note 36 – Financial instruments” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
Fair value option
The Group has availed itself of the simplification in accounting offered under the fair value option. 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. For instruments for which hedge accounting could not be achieved but for which the Group is economically hedged, the Group has generally elected the fair value option. Where the Group manages an activity on a fair value basis but previously has been unable to achieve fair value accounting, the Group has generally utilized the fair value option to align its financial accounting to its risk management reporting.
> Refer to “Note 36 – Financial instruments” in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 for further information on the Group’s election of the fair value option.

33 Litigation
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 40 – Litigation in VI – Consolidated financial statements – Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2021 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. This review includes consideration of management’s strategy for resolution of matters through settlement or trial, as well as changes in such strategy. 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 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 40 referenced above and updated in quarterly reports (including below) for which the Group believes an estimate is possible is zero to CHF 1.6 billion.
In 2Q22, the Group recorded net litigation provisions of CHF 497 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.

Cautionary statement regarding forward-looking information
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, targets 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.
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, targets, goals, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to:
■ the ability to maintain sufficient liquidity and access capital markets;
■ market volatility, increases in inflation and interest rate fluctuations or developments affecting interest rate levels;
■ the ongoing significant negative consequences, including reputational harm, of the Archegos and supply chain finance funds matters, as well as other recent events, and our ability to successfully resolve these matters;
■ our ability to improve our risk management procedures and policies and hedging strategies;
■ 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, but not limited to, the risk of negative impacts of COVID-19 on the global economy and financial markets, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the resulting sanctions from the US, EU, UK, Switzerland and other countries and the risk of continued slow economic recovery or downturn in the EU, the US or other developed countries or in emerging markets in 2022 and beyond;
■ the emergence of widespread health emergencies, infectious diseases or pandemics, such as COVID-19, and the actions that may be taken by governmental authorities to contain the outbreak or to counter its impact;
■ potential risks and uncertainties relating to the severity of impacts from COVID-19 and the duration of the pandemic, including potential material adverse effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations;
■ 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 initiatives, including those related to our targets, ambitions and goals, such as our financial ambitions as well as various goals and commitments to incorporate certain environmental, social and governance considerations into our business strategy, products, services and risk management processes;
■ the ability of counterparties to meet their obligations to us and the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses;
■ the effects of, and changes in, fiscal, monetary, exchange rate, trade and tax policies;
■ the effects of currency fluctuations, including the related impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations due to moves in foreign exchange rates;
■ geopolitical and diplomatic tensions, instabilities and conflicts, including war, civil unrest, terrorist activity, sanctions or other geopolitical events or escalations of hostilities, such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine;
■ political, social and environmental developments, including climate change;
■ the ability to appropriately address social, environmental and sustainability concerns that may arise from our business activities;
■ the effects of, and the uncertainty arising from, the UK’s withdrawal from the EU;
■ 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 cyber attacks, information or security breaches or technology failures on our reputation, business or operations, the risk of which is increased while large portions of our employees work remotely;
■ the adverse resolution of litigation, regulatory proceedings and other contingencies;
■ 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 or tax standards, policies or practices in countries in which we conduct our operations;

■ 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 protect our reputation and promote our brand;

■ acquisitions, including the ability to integrate acquired businesses successfully, and divestitures, including the ability to sell non-core assets; and
■ other unforeseen or unexpected events and our success at managing these and the risks involved in the foregoing.
