Q3 2019

Interim Management Statement

NatWest Markets Group natwestmarkets.com

NatWest Markets Plc

Q3 2019 Interim Management Statement

NatWest Markets Group (NWM Group) reported a loss of £20 million for Q3 2019 compared with a profit of £87 million in Q2 2019 and a profit of £117 million in Q3 2018. NatWest Markets had a challenging quarter, and was impacted by a deterioration in economic sentiment for the global economy and a fall in bond yields.

Highlights

Income, costs and legacy issues

●	Income was £106 million in Q3 2019, compared with £230 million in Q2 2019 and £198 million in Q3 2018, reflecting lower Core income in challenging market conditions. Rates income was particularly impacted, due to elevated hedging costs caused by reduced liquidity and wider bid-offer spreads as the market experienced sustained curve flattening across global fixed income markets.
●	Operating expenses of £182 million in Q3 2019 were stable compared with Q2 2019 and £236 million lower than in Q3 2018, largely due to reimbursement under indemnification agreements and other one-off cost recoveries in Q3 2019 and Q2 2019 respectively.
Balance sheet, capital and RWAs
●	NWM Group’s total assets and liabilities increased by £65.8 billion and £66.4 billion to £313.7 billion and £305.2 billion respectively at 30 September 2019, compared with 31 December 2018. The increases primarily reflect client flow activity as well as an increase in derivative fair values following a downward shift in interest rate yields and weaker sterling.
●	NWM Plc issued £1.2 billion equivalent of term senior unsecured debt securities in benchmark deals during Q3 2019, bringing the total issuance across benchmark and private placement formats during 2019 to £4.5 billion, in line with the £3-5 billion 2019 funding target.
●	Total NWM Plc RWAs were £39.4 billion at 30 September 2019, compared with £38.7 billion and £40.8 billion at 30 June 2019 and 31 December 2018 respectively, with the increase since 30 June 2019 primarily due to the requirement to hold higher capital on derivative assets driven by market moves in August and September.
●	NWM Plc’s Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio decreased to 14.7%, from 15.6% at 31 December 2018, principally reflecting dividends paid and other reserve movements in the period.
NatWest Markets N.V. (NWM N.V.)
●	NWM N.V., the RBS Group’s banking entity in the Netherlands, is operationally ready to ensure continuity of service to European Economic Area (EEA) customers when the UK leaves the European Union.
●	NWM N.V. is expected to become a subsidiary of NWM Plc in Q4 2019, subject to regulatory approval.

●	Operating loss before tax was £73 million compared with a £66 million operating profit in Q2 2019 and a £230 million loss in Q3 2018. Total income of £106 million was lower by £124 million and by £92 million when compared with Q2 2019 and Q3 2018 respectively, reflecting lower trading income in challenging market conditions. Operating expenses of £182 million in Q3 2019 were stable against Q2 2019 but down significantly from £418 million in Q3 2018, largely due to reimbursement under indemnification agreements and one-off cost recoveries in Q3 2019 and Q2 2019 respectively.
●	Net interest income was a net expense of £54 million in Q3 2019 compared with a net expense of £71 million in Q2 2019 and £115 million in Q3 2018, largely representing funding costs of the business. Net interest expense is primarily recognised within the NatWest Markets segment in 2019 following the structural reorganisation in 2018.
●	Non-interest income of £160 million decreased by £141 million compared with £301 million in Q2 2019, and by £153 million compared with £313 million in Q3 2018, driven by challenging trading conditions which particularly affected Rates income during Q3 2019, most significantly during August 2019. Rates income was impacted due to elevated hedging costs caused by reduced liquidity and wider bid-offer spreads as the market experienced sustained curve flattening across global fixed income markets.
●	Operating expenses were £182 million in Q3 2019, compared with £180 million in Q2 2019 and £418 million in Q3 2018. Litigation and conduct costs, a credit of £138 million in Q3 2019, were driven by £162 million in reimbursement under indemnification agreements, compared to a £10 million release in Q2 2019 and expense of £124 million in Q3 2018. Strategic costs were £53 million in Q3 2019, compared with £33 million in Q2 2019 and £69 million in Q3 2018. Other operating expenses increased to £267 million from £157 million in Q2 2019, largely as a result of certain one-off cost recoveries in Q2 2019 and by £42 million relative to Q3 2018 (£225 million) which included the impact of certain provision releases.
●	Impairment releases were £3 million in Q3 2019, compared with a release of £16 million in Q2 2019 and impairment losses of £10 million in Q3 2018. The release in Q3 2019 was largely due to the repayment of an IFRS 9 Stage 2 loan.
●	NatWest Markets operating loss before tax was £198 million compared with £104 million and £103 million in Q2 2019 and Q3 2018 respectively, driven by lower Core income in Q3 2019 of £143 million (Q2 2019 - £273 million, Q3 2018 - £325 million) which was impacted by challenging market conditions, particularly affecting Rates. This was partially offset by lower legacy losses compared with prior periods. Operating expenses of £326 million in Q3 2019 increased compared to Q2 2019 (£300 million), but were lower than in Q3 2018 (£406 million) which included higher litigation and conduct costs offset by provision releases.
●	Central items & other operating profit before tax was £125 million in Q3 2019 compared with £170 million in Q2 2019 and losses of £127 million in Q3 2018. The movements in Q3 2019 and Q2 2019 were largely driven by £162 million in reimbursement under indemnification agreements and one-off cost recoveries respectively, whereas Q3 2018 included net interest expenses and other operating losses.

●	Operating profit before tax was £58 million compared with a loss of £1,053 million from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 2018.Total income of £612 million was lower by £139 million compared with £751 million in the comparative period, reflecting lower trading income in challenging market conditions. Operating expenses reduced by £1,200 million to £593 million, primarily reflecting reimbursement under indemnification agreements and certain one-off cost recoveries in the nine months to 30 September 2019, as well as the non-repeat of RMBS-related litigation and conduct costs in the prior period.
●	Net interest income was a net expense of £161 million, compared with a net expense of £181 million in the prior period. Net interest expenses largely represent funding costs of the business and are primarily reflected in the NatWest Markets segment in 2019 following the structural reorganisation in 2018.
●	Non-interest income decreased by £159 million to £773 million, compared with £932 million in the prior period, driven by challenging trading conditions which particularly affected Rates income, most significantly during August 2019. Rates income was impacted due to elevated hedging costs caused by reduced liquidity and wider bid-offer spreads as the market experienced sustained curve flattening across global fixed income markets.
●	Operating expenses of £593 million were down by £1,200 million compared with the prior period. Litigation and conduct costs, a credit of £154 million, predominantly reflected £162 million in reimbursement under indemnification agreements during the nine months to 30 September 2019 compared with the prior period costs of £915 million which were largely driven by the settlement with the US Department of Justice (DoJ) in relation to RMBS matters. Strategic costs were up marginally during the period. Other operating expenses of £649 million decreased by £136 million, largely due to certain one-off cost recoveries.
●	Impairment releases were £39 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2019 compared with impairment losses of £11 million in the prior period, driven by expected recoveries on IFRS 9 Stage 3 defaulted assets, the repayment of Stage 2 loans as well as other credit improvements.
●	NatWest Markets operating loss before tax was £296 million compared with a loss of £4 million in the prior period, driven by lower Core income of £790 million which was impacted by challenging market conditions, particularly impacting Rates, when compared to the prior period (£1,055 million). Legacy losses of £152 million (nine months ended 30 September 2018 - £115 million) largely reflects the absorption of net interest expenses previously within Central items & other. Operating expenses reduced by £77 million to £915 million for the nine months to 30 September 2019, mainly due to the non-repeat of litigation and conduct costs in the prior period.
●	Central items & other operating profit was £354 million compared with a loss of £1,049 million in the prior year, largely driven by £162 million in reimbursement under indemnification agreements and one-off cost recoveries, together with the non-repeat of RMBS-related costs and net interest expenses in the comparative period.

Total assets	313.5	0.2	313.7	279.8	0.6	280.4	245.1	2.8	247.9

●	Total assets and liabilities increased by £65.8 billion and £66.4 billion to £313.7 billion and £305.2 billion respectively at 30 September 2019, compared with £247.9 billion and £238.8 billion at 31 December 2018. Funded assets, which exclude derivatives, increased by £24.8 billion to £138.4 billion at 30 September 2019.
●	Trading assets, which primarily include securities and reverse repurchase agreements relating to client-led activity, as well as derivative cash collateral posted, increased by £13.4 billion to £88.4 billion at 30 September 2019, driven by increased levels of customer flow trading relative to year end 2018. Trading liabilities, comprising mainly short positions, repurchase agreements and derivative cash collateral received, increased by £13.2 billion to £85.5 billion at 30 September 2019.
●	Derivative assets and derivative liabilities were up £41.0 billion to £175.3 billion and £42.9 billion to £172.8 billion respectively compared with the prior year end. The movements in mark-to-market were driven by a significant downward shift in interest rate yields, together with sterling having weakened against major currencies since the year end 2018.
●	Settlement balance assets and liabilities were up £8.5 billion and £7.6 billion to £11.2 billion and £10.5 billion respectively, reflecting increased trading compared with the seasonally low levels of client activity leading up to 31 December 2018.
●	Other financial assets, which include non-trading government debt securities of £6.6 billion, increased to £13.1 billion at 30 September 2019 (31 December 2018 - £11.3 billion). Other financial liabilities, which includes £15.0 billion of medium term notes, increased to £18.4 billion at 30 September 2019 (31 December 2018 - £16.3 billion) largely driven by net benchmark issuance activity in the period.
●	Owners’ equity decreased by £0.6 billion to £8.5 billion at 30 September 2019 primarily due to dividends paid to RBSG and other reserves movements during the period.

On 17 April 2018, RBS agreed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Trustees of the RBS Group Pension Fund in connection with the requirements of ring-fencing. NatWest Markets Plc could not continue to be a participant in the Main section and separate arrangements were required for its employees. Under the MoU, NatWest Plc made a contribution of £2 billion on 9 October 2018 to strengthen funding of the Main section in recognition of the changes in covenant.

Notes

1. Basis of preparation

NWM Group’s condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2018 Annual Report and Accounts which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee of the IASB as adopted by the European Union (EU) (together IFRS).

Going concern

Having reviewed NWM Group’s forecasts, projections and other relevant evidence, the directors have a reasonable expectation that NWM Group will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the results for the periods ended 30 September 2019 have been prepared on a going concern basis.

2. Accounting policies

NWM Group’s principal accounting policies are as set out on pages 66 to 70 of the 2018 Annual Report and Accounts and are unchanged other than as presented below.

Revised Accounting policy 10 - Leases

NWM Group has adopted IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ with effect from 1 January 2019, replacing IAS 17 ‘Leases’. NWM Group has applied IFRS 16 on a modified retrospective basis without restating prior years. Accounting policy 10 presented in NWM Group’s 2018 Annual Report and Accounts has been updated as follows:

As lessor

Finance lease contracts are those which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset to a customer. All other contracts with customers to lease assets are classified as operating leases.

Loans to customers include finance lease receivables measured at the net investment in the lease, comprising the minimum lease payments and any unguaranteed residual value discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. Interest receivable includes finance lease income recognised at a constant periodic rate of return before tax on the net investment. Unguaranteed residual values are subject to regular review; if there is a reduction in their value, income allocation is revised and any reduction in respect of amounts accrued is recognised immediately.

Rental income from operating leases is recognised in other operating income on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless another systematic basis better represents the time pattern of the asset’s use. Operating lease assets are included within Property, plant and equipment and depreciated over their useful lives.

As lessee

On entering a new lease contract, NWM Group recognises a right of use asset and a liability to pay future rentals. The liability is measured at the present value of future lease payments discounted at the applicable incremental borrowing rate. The right of use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the term of the lease and the useful economic life, subject to review for impairment. Short term and low value leased assets are expensed on a systematic basis.

Adoption of IFRS 16 resulted in the right of use assets of £56 million and lease liabilities of £62 million, and a decrease in retained earnings of £6 million.

For further details see page 70 of NWM Group’s 2018 Annual Report and Accounts.

Critical accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The judgements and assumptions that are considered to be the most important to the portrayal of NWM Group’s financial condition are those relating to provisions for liabilities, deferred tax, loan impairment provisions and fair value of financial instruments. These critical accounting policies and judgements are described on page 70 of the 2018 Annual Report and Accounts.

6. Litigation, investigations and reviews

NWM Group’s 2019 Interim Results, issued on 2 August 2019, included comprehensive disclosures about NWM Group’s litigation, investigations and reviews in Note 12. Set out below are the material developments in these matters since the 2019 Interim Results were published.

Litigation

London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other rates litigation

As previously disclosed, NWM Plc and certain other members of RBS Group, including RBSG, are defendants in a number of cases, including several class actions, pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York which concern alleged manipulation of USD LIBOR. In September 2019, RBS Group companies reached a settlement in principle to resolve the class action on behalf of those who held bonds issued by non-defendants on which interest was paid from 2007 to 2010 at a rate expressly tied to USD LIBOR. The settlement is subject to documentation and court approval. The amount of the settlement is covered by a provision existing as of 30 September 2019.

On 16 August 2019, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York dismissed all remaining claims in the class action concerning alleged manipulation of Pound Sterling LIBOR on the ground that the only named plaintiff with potentially valid claims lacks capacity to maintain the suit. Plaintiffs have commenced an appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.

On 16 September 2019, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York dismissed the amended class action complaint concerning alleged manipulation of Swiss Franc LIBOR on the ground that, because the named plaintiffs who originally purported to file the case had ceased to exist at the time of filing, there is no controversy over which court has jurisdiction. The court’s decision is subject to potential appeal.

US Anti-Terrorism Act litigation

On 16 September 2019, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York dismissed the US Anti-Terrorism Act case that has been pending against NWM N.V. and certain other financial institutions since it was filed in November 2014, concerning an alleged conspiracy to assist Iran in transferring money to Hezbollah and Iraqi terror cells. The court held that the claims were deficient for several reasons, including lack of sufficient allegations as to the alleged conspiracy and causation. The decision is subject to potential appeal.

US investigations relating to fixed-income securities

In October 2017, NatWest Markets Securities Inc. entered into a non-prosecution agreement (NPA) with the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut (USAO) in connection with alleged misrepresentations to counterparties relating to secondary trading in various forms of asset-backed securities. In the NPA, the USAO agreed not to file criminal charges relating to certain conduct and information described in the NPA if NatWest Markets Securities Inc. complies with the NPA’s requirements during its term, including by not engaging in conduct during the NPA that the US Department of Justice determines was a felony under federal or state law or a violation of the anti-fraud provisions of the United States securities law. As previously disclosed, the NatWest Markets business is currently responding to a criminal investigation concerning unrelated securities trading by certain traders in 2018, which was reported to the USAO during the course of the NPA. In October 2019, NatWest Markets Securities Inc. agreed to a third extension of the NPA (for three additional months) so that the USAO could review the circumstances of that unrelated matter. The NatWest Markets business is in discussions to resolve these matters.

7. Post balance sheet events

Other than as disclosed there have been no other significant events between 30 September 2019 and the date of approval of these accounts which would require a change to or additional disclosure in the accounts.

Presentation of information

NatWest Markets Plc (‘NWM Plc’) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc (‘RBSG plc’ or ‘the holding company’). NatWest Markets Group (‘NWM Group’) comprises NWM Plc and its subsidiary and associated undertakings. The term ‘RBS Group’ comprises RBSG plc and its subsidiary and associated undertakings.

NatWest Markets Plc legal entity

There is a distinction between the disclosure of the NatWest Markets operating segment performance in the RBS Group’s Q3 2019 Results and the NatWest Markets Plc legal entity disclosures in this document: NatWest Markets Plc legal entity includes the Central items & other segment but excludes NatWest Markets N.V.. The RBS Group’s Q3 2019 Results reports the NatWest Markets segment, including NatWest Markets N.V., but excludes the Central items & other segment.

Non-IFRS financial measures

As described in Note 1 on page 9, NWM Group prepares its financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB which constitutes a body of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Q3 Interim Management Statement contains a number of adjusted or alternative performance measures, also known as non-GAAP or non-IFRS financial measures. These measures are adjusted for certain items which management believe are not representative of the underlying performance of the business and which distort period-on-period comparison. These non-IFRS financial measures are not measures within the scope of IFRS and are not a substitute for IFRS measures. These measures include:

●

Management analysis of the operating expenses shows strategic costs and litigation and conduct costs in separate lines on Page 2. These amounts are included in staff, premises and equipment and other administrative expenses in the statutory analysis.

●

Funded assets defined as total assets less derivatives. Funded assets are further segregated into core and legacy assets for the management view.

●

Management view of core and legacy for income and funded assets. Legacy positions consist predominantly of the residual exposures which were reported in Capital Resolution until its closure after Q3 2017.

For details of the expected changes in scope of NWM Group’s activities refer to page 38 of the 2019 Interim Results.

Statutory results

The statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2018 have been filed with the Registrar of Companies.
