Forward Guidance
This press release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to various risks and uncertainties.
Positive Outlook
- The firm's Investment banking fees backlog increased compared with both the end of the second quarter of 2024 and the end of 2023.
- Higher net revenues in Global Banking & Markets and Asset & Wealth Management.
- Significantly higher net revenues in Debt underwriting, driven by leveraged finance and investment-grade activity, and higher net revenues in Equity underwriting, driven by secondary offerings.
- Higher net revenues in currencies and credit products and higher net revenues in mortgages.
- Significantly higher net revenues in Equities intermediation in both derivatives and cash products.
Challenges Ahead
- Lower net revenues in Platform Solutions.
- Significantly lower net revenues in FICC intermediation, due to significantly lower net revenues in interest rate products and commodities.
- The decrease in Consumer platforms net revenues reflected lower net revenues from the General Motors (GM) credit card program, including a loss related to the planned transitioning of the program to another issuer, partially offset by higher average credit card balances.
- Transaction banking and other net revenues were lower, primarily reflecting mark-downs related to the seller financing loans portfolio that was transferred to held for sale, and lower average deposit balances.
- Information regarding the firm’s assets under supervision, capital ratios, risk-weighted assets, supplementary leverage ratio, balance sheet data, global core liquid assets and VaR consists of preliminary estimates.
