Tidjane Thiam, Chief Executive Officer of Credit Suisse, commented:
“When we started our restructuring at the end of 2015, we had three main objectives: we needed to (i) address some clear and urgent problems – our capital position, our absolute level of risk and our high fixed cost base; (ii) define and implement a strategy that would lead us to sustainable, compliant and profitable growth; and (iii) invest in order to significantly upgrade our risk and compliance controls and improve our culture.
“Our ambition was to move towards an operating model that would allow us to do well when markets are supportive and to be resilient when markets are more challenging by focusing on the levers we can control. So far, 2018 has allowed us to illustrate the progress we have made. The first and second quarters were characterised by generally favourable markets and strong client activity levels and you were able to see that we delivered a strong performance. The third quarter, with much more challenging conditions and lower levels of client activity, allowed us to demonstrate the resilience of our new operating model as we delivered our best third quarter of adjusted* profit since 2014.
“The environment was challenging this summer. In addition to the usual seasonal slowdown, we saw increased volatility in emerging markets and in some emerging market currencies, as market participants worried about the impact of US Dollar interest rate normalisation, and about trade tensions, as well as about significant political uncertainties. This led to a drop in client activity that compounded the usual, expected summer slowdown.
“In that context, our third quarter performance was notable with our eighth consecutive quarter of year-on-year profit increase and adjusted* pre-tax income of CHF 3.3 billion for the first nine months of 2018, up by 53% compared to the same nine month period a year ago, supported by continued positive operating leverage.
“Growing our Wealth Management franchise is a core component of our strategy. Wealth Management NNA for the first nine months of the year were CHF 33.8 billion, up 67% on the same period in 2015 and our highest nine month NNA since 2013. Our Asset Management segment within IWM delivered strong NNA of CHF 4.5 billion in the quarter, with assets under management of CHF 404 billion, up 7% year-on-year. Overall, the third quarter saw us reach record Wealth Management AuM of CHF 785 billion and total AuM of CHF 1.4 trillion at increased net margins in the first nine months of the year.
“Our capital position has strengthened, with our look-through CET1 ratio increasing from 12.8% at the end of the second quarter to 12.9% at the end of the third quarter. Our leverage position remains strong, with our look-through Tier 1 leverage ratio at 5.1%, in excess of the Swiss 2020 leverage ratio requirement of 5.0%, reflecting the full impact of the irrevocable call of CHF 5.9 billion of High-Trigger CoCo instruments.
“Looking ahead to 2019, we anticipate further profit improvement from measures that are directly within our control, including the run-off of the Strategic Resolution Unit and lower funding and restructuring charges, which is expected to lift our Return on Tangible Equity to 10-11% for 2019.”

Outlook
The outlook for global economic growth in the final quarter of 2018 remains positive, despite continued geopolitical tensions surrounding global trade and the potential impact of monetary policy changes by central banks. Sentiment turned more negative during the third quarter and we expect this to continue in the fourth quarter. Our level of dialogue with clients remains strong, however, with a healthy pipeline of transactions expected to be completed in the final quarter, dependent on end markets remaining constructive.
We expect our Wealth Management-related businesses – across Swiss Universal Bank, International Wealth Management and Asia Pacific WM&C – to continue to benefit from broad-based, client-led growth in the final quarter of the year. In these more challenging markets, we believe our integrated approach, providing a full range of wealth management and investment banking solutions for clients, and our focus on more stable, annuity-like revenue streams leaves us well positioned to support our clients and help them not only navigate the current climate but also capitalise on opportunities that arise.
As a result of the progress made to date through our restructuring programme, we believe we are on track to achieve our 2018 target of cumulative net cost savings of more than CHF 4.2 billion and benefit from the operating leverage we have created in 2019 and beyond.

Third quarter overview
In our wealth management businesses, containing the Swiss Universal Bank, International Wealth Management and Asia Pacific Private Banking within Wealth Management & Connected, we maintained our explicit focus on growing our more stable sources of revenue – net interest income (NII) and fee income – in the quarter. The continued success of our lending activities and continued growth in our fee-carrying assets under management allowed those two sources of revenues to grow in these businesses4 by CHF 1.2 billion5 in the first nine months of 2018 compared to the same period in 2015, i.e. by 20% or 6% CAGR. The third source of income within these businesses – transaction-based revenues – which is also the smallest income component, was more volatile, and was down 3%6 for the first nine months of 2018 compared to the same period of 2015.
This strategy meant that NII and recurring revenues continued to grow in these businesses4 in the challenging third quarter environment, driving net revenues across those businesses to CHF 9.5 billion year-to-date, approximately CHF 1.1 billion7 higher than the same period in 2015. More adjusted* profit was produced in our Wealth Management-related businesses in the first three quarters of the year than for the entire year in 2015 and those businesses have transformed the economics of the bank as a consequence.
Investment Banking & Capital Markets had a particularly strong third quarter, reflecting the power of the franchise. Revenues of USD 543 million in the third quarter rose 15% year-on-year, with adjusted* pre-tax income up 67% to USD 90 million. These results reflect the continued successful execution of our IBCM strategy, with continued momentum in the M&A business with share gains in the Americas and EMEA2.
Global Markets had a more challenging revenue quarter in Fixed Income, partly reflecting a strong year-on-year comparable and the impact of our decision to rationalise our macro and emerging markets businesses. The benefits of these measures were, however, visible in the cost line, placing us well on track to achieve adjusted* operating expenses of USD 4.8 billion by year-end 2018. GM can be expected to generate higher returns in 2019 through the operating leverage created; a lower breakeven point, a refreshed equities franchise and approximately USD 250 million of lower funding costs are expected to constitute a material tailwind.
In the third quarter, we have continued to execute with discipline and deliver on what we can control, particularly on cost and capital. We have completed 11 quarters out of our 12-quarter programme and have delivered CHF 4 billion1 of net cost savings, in other words 96% of our target. We have transformed our adjusted* operating cost base from CHF 21.2 billion at the end of 2015 to an annualised CHF 16.8 billion1, putting us firmly on track to meet our year-end target of less than CHF 17 billion. The success of our cost reduction programme was key to increasing the resilience of our bank by reducing our breakeven point. The fact that we were able to generate a profit in a challenging quarter shows that this strategy has been successful.

Detailed divisional summaries
All comparisons are provided on a year-on-year basis unless specified otherwise.
Swiss Universal Bank (SUB) reported its eleventh consecutive quarter of year-on-year adjusted* pre-tax income growth in 3Q18. Adjusted* pre-tax income totalled CHF 523 million for the quarter, up 17%. Adjusted* net revenues were stable with momentum in Corporate & Institutional Clients offset by lower transaction-based revenues. Adjusted* total operating expenses decreased by 10% from continued rigorous cost discipline, resulting in an adjusted* cost/income ratio of 58%.
In Private Clients, adjusted* pre-tax income for 3Q18 rose 16%. This increase was primarily driven by continued efficiency gains from higher Relationship Manager productivity, reduced contractor costs and our ongoing strategic efforts to digitalise our services; for example, in 3Q18, we launched our revamped online banking with improved capabilities. Adjusted* net revenues benefited from the stability of NII and recurring revenues and were negatively impacted by reduced client activity due to a seasonal slowdown and market volatility. NNA reached CHF 0.9 billion for 3Q18 and CHF 4.1 billion for 9M18, reflecting continued momentum in our UHNW client franchise.
Corporate & Institutional Clients reported adjusted* pre-tax income of CHF 272 million in 3Q18, up 18%, driven by strong operating leverage. Adjusted* net revenues were up 3%, reflecting a solid performance with strong recurring commissions and fees, supported by a 4% increase in AuM and significant cost savings, mainly driven by lower compensation and benefits. We are continuously developing our digital services for Corporate and Institutional Clients. Our newly launched digital onboarding process for small and medium-sized enterprises and our online leasing tool are just some examples of our compelling offering.

International Wealth Management (IWM) delivered a strong performance in 3Q18 as adjusted* pre-tax income rose 8% to CHF 411 million, which is on par with the best quarter during 2017. NNA totalled CHF 7.5 billion during the quarter. In 9M18, adjusted* pre-tax income rose 24% to CHF 1.3 billion and NNA amounted to CHF 35.2 billion.
Adjusted* pre-tax income in Private Banking rose 13% following increases across all major revenue categories, including 13% growth in transaction- and performance-based revenues, reflecting higher client activity, supported by our proactive engagement with clients. Adjusted* pre-tax income in 9M18 increased 26% to CHF 1.1 billion. Total operating expenses in the third quarter remained stable as the division invested for growth but continued to achieve savings through efficiency measures. NNA amounted to CHF 3.0 billion in 3Q18 and CHF 13.7 billion in 9M18, with the year-to-date amount corresponding to an annualised growth rate of 5%, reflecting solid inflows across emerging markets and Europe.
Asset Management continued to deliver growth in asset management fees, up 11%, at a stable recurring margin of 31 basis points. Adjusted* pre-tax income was down 6% compared to 3Q17, which included an equity participation gain, while 3Q18 had lower investment-related gains. Adjusted* pre-tax income in 9M18 increased 15%. NNA amounted to CHF 4.5 billion in 3Q18 and CHF 21.5 billion in 9M18, primarily driven by inflows into alternative and traditional investments.
6

Asia Pacific (APAC) adjusted* pre-tax income was down 18% to CHF 186 million, driven by lower revenues performance in our Markets business. These results were impacted by persistent challenging market conditions that resulted in lower client activity and risk appetite. Adjusted* pre-tax income in 9M18 rose 25%, reflecting the long-term resilience of our wealth management strategy and client focus, with both Wealth Management & Connected and Markets up.
Our APAC Wealth Management & Connected (WM&C) business reported adjusted* pre-tax income of CHF 184 million in 3Q18, up 3%, and adjusted* return on regulatory capital was 23%. Adjusted* pre-tax income was up 12% in 9M18.
Private Banking saw growth in net interest income and recurring commissions and fees, while transaction-based revenues were down significantly in the third quarter due to a shift in client sentiment in the current market environment.
NNA totalled CHF 6.4 billion in 3Q18, reflecting inflows across most of our markets and including certain major client inflows, benefitting from our integrated delivery to UHNW entrepreneur clients. NNA totalled CHF 16.0 billion in 9M18, leading to AuM of CHF 207.5 billion.
Advisory, underwriting, and financing revenues were higher, mainly due to higher financing revenues and strong equity underwriting activity. APAC advisory and underwriting maintained its top 2 ranking in terms of share of wallet8.
Our APAC Markets business reported adjusted* pre-tax income of USD 1 million in 3Q18, down from USD 52 million in 3Q17, due to challenging market conditions, especially in fixed income sales and trading. Adjusted* pre-tax income for 9M18 was USD 95 million, up from USD 14 million in 9M17, mainly supported by adjusted* operating expenses that were down 8% for 9M18, reflecting our continued discipline in cost management.

Investment Banking & Capital Markets (IBCM) continued the successful execution of our strategy in 3Q18, delivering an increase of 67% in adjusted* pre-tax income to USD 90 million. Adjusted* pre-tax income in 9M18 was also up 9% at USD 325 million. Net revenues rose 15% to USD 543 million in 3Q18, driven by higher advisory and equity underwriting fees, significantly outperforming the Street2. In 9M18, net revenues were up 9% at USD 1.8 billion. Global advisory and underwriting revenues were up 7% at USD 1.0 billion9, also outperforming the Street10.
Continued momentum in our M&A franchise, with share gains in the Americas and EMEA over 3Q182, and increased announced volumes, contributed to a top 5 rank in global M&A10. We also retained our top 5 rank in Leveraged Finance10.
Equity underwriting revenues were up 37% at USD 93 million for the quarter, reflecting higher IPO issuances. For 9M18, equity underwriting revenues were up 10%, despite reduced ECM Street activity2. Debt underwriting revenues were down 5% at USD 230 million in the third quarter, outperforming the Street2. For 9M18, debt underwriting revenues were down 3% at USD 777 million, in line with the Street2.
Adjusted* operating expenses in 3Q18 were up 10% at USD 450 million due to higher variable compensation expenses, in line with the improvement in business performance, as well as the impact of the adoption of the new revenue recognition accounting standard. The adjusted* cost/income ratio fell to 83% for the quarter from 86% in 3Q17.

In Global Markets (GM), since 2016 we have taken a differentiated approach to many of our peers by placing a hard ceiling on the RWA and leverage usage of the division, rightsizing the cost base as well as its risk budget by exiting businesses which did not cover their cost of capital or were not in line with our strategy.
Alongside these actions, we also made a number of important investments, most notably in our Equities franchise, in derivatives and in Advanced Execution Services (AES) to regain market share, grow absolute revenues and rebalance the division between Equities and Fixed Income. Our 3Q18 results reflect the tail end of our restructuring measures and include the impact of the rationalisation of Rates and Emerging Markets Macro which we have executed over the past two quarters.
As we look ahead to 2019, representing the first year post restructuring, we believe the benefits of our actions will drive returns higher for the division while maintaining our discipline around cost, risk and capital. We expect revenues in GM to benefit from the investments we have made in Equities, about USD 250 million of lower funding costs and closer collaboration with Wealth Management.
In 3Q18, GM demonstrated strict cost and capital discipline in a challenging operating environment characterised by tighter credit spreads and reduced credit client activity. The lower revenues we experienced reflected in part the continued rationalisation of our emerging markets and macro businesses. Overall revenues were 13% lower, normalised for the impact of business exits, or 19% lower as reported. GM recorded an adjusted* pre-tax loss of USD 21 million in 3Q18.
In addition, GM maintained its conservative approach to capital management as leverage exposure decreased by 12%.
Equities revenues11 of USD 426 million were up 6% (normalised for business exits, or 1% without such normalisation), reflecting continued momentum in equity derivatives, up 70%, and increased equity underwriting activity.
Fixed Income11 revenues of USD 755 million were down 15% (normalised for business exits, or 20% without such normalisation), reflecting a more challenging quarter in Securitized Products and a strong comparable period in 2017. We maintained our leading market share12 in our asset finance and leveraged finance underwriting franchises.
Adjusted* total operating expenses decreased by 10%, driven by continued progress on efficiency initiatives. GM is on track to achieve our 2018 goal of less than USD 4.8 billion in adjusted* total operating expenses.

The results of Credit Suisse Group comprise the results of our six reporting segments, including the Strategic Resolution Unit, and the Corporate Center. Core results exclude revenues and expenses from our Strategic Resolution Unit.
As we move ahead with the implementation of our strategy, it is important to measure the progress achieved by our underlying business performance in a consistent manner. To achieve this, we will focus our analyses on adjusted results.
Adjusted results referred to in this Media Release are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude goodwill impairment and certain other revenues and expenses included in our reported results. Management believes that adjusted results provide a useful presentation of our operating results for the 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. We will report quarterly on the same adjusted* basis for the Group, Core and divisional results until end-2018 to allow investors to monitor our progress in implementing our strategy, given the material restructuring charges we are likely to incur and other items which are not reflective of our underlying performance but are to be borne in the interim period. Tables in the Appendix of this Media Release provide the detailed reconciliation between reported and adjusted results for the Group, Core businesses and the individual divisions.

Our cost savings programme is measured using adjusted operating cost base at constant FX rates. “Adjusted operating cost base at constant FX rates” includes adjustments as made in all our disclosures for restructuring expenses, major litigation expenses and a goodwill impairment taken in 4Q15 as well as adjustments for debit valuation adjustments (DVA) related volatility, FX and for certain accounting changes (which had not been in place at the launch of the cost savings programme). Adjustments for certain accounting changes have been restated to reflect grossed up expenses in the Corporate Center and, starting in 1Q18, also include adjustments for changes from ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which is described further in our 1Q18 and 2Q18 Financial Reports. Adjustments for FX apply unweighted currency exchange rates, i.e., a straight line average of monthly rates, consistently for the periods under review.
Regulatory capital is calculated as the worst of 10% of RWA and 3.5% of leverage exposure. Return on regulatory capital is calculated using (adjusted) income/(loss) after tax and assumes a tax rate of 30% and capital allocated based on the worst of 10% of average RWA and 3.5% of average leverage exposure. For the Markets business within the APAC division and for the Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets divisions, return on regulatory capital is based on US dollar denominated numbers. Adjusted return on regulatory capital is calculated using adjusted results, applying the same methodology to calculate return on regulatory capital.
Return on tangible equity attributable to shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure, is based on tangible equity attributable to shareholders, which is calculated by deducting goodwill and other intangible assets from total equity attributable to shareholders as presented in our balance sheet. Management believes that the return on tangible equity attributable to shareholders is meaningful as it allows consistent measurement of the performance of businesses without regard to whether the businesses were acquired.
We may not achieve all of the expected benefits of our strategic initiatives. Factors beyond our control, including but not limited to the market and economic conditions, changes in laws, rules or regulations and other challenges discussed in our public filings, could limit our ability to achieve some or all of the expected benefits of these initiatives.

These risks, assumptions and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general market conditions, market volatility, interest rate volatility and levels, global and regional economic conditions, political uncertainty, changes in tax policies, regulatory changes, changes in levels of client activity as a result of any of the foregoing and other factors. Accordingly, this information should not be relied on for any purpose. We do not intend to update these estimates, illustrations, ambitions, objectives, outlooks or goals.
In preparing this media release, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the numbers presented. Actual results may differ. Annualized numbers do not take into account variations in operating results, seasonality and other factors and may not be indicative of actual, full-year results. Figures throughout this media release may also be subject to rounding adjustments. All opinions and views constitute judgments as of the date of writing without regard to the date on which the reader may receive or access the information. This information is subject to change at any time without notice and we do not intend to update this information.
As of January 1, 2013, Basel III was implemented in Switzerland along with the Swiss “Too Big to Fail” legislation and regulations thereunder (in each case, subject to certain phase-in periods). As of January 1, 2015, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) leverage ratio framework, as issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), was implemented in Switzerland by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA (FINMA). Our related disclosures are in accordance with our interpretation of such requirements, including relevant assumptions. Changes in the interpretation of these requirements in Switzerland or in any of our assumptions or estimates could result in different numbers from those shown in this media release.
Unless otherwise noted, leverage exposure is based on the BIS leverage ratio framework and consists of period-end balance sheet assets and prescribed regulatory adjustments. The look-through tier 1 leverage ratio and CET1 leverage ratio are calculated as look-through BIS tier 1 capital and CET1 capital, respectively, divided by period end leverage exposure. Swiss leverage ratios are measured on the same period-end basis as the leverage exposure for the BIS leverage ratio.
Margin calculations for APAC are aligned with the performance metrics of the Private Banking business and its related assets under management within the WM&C business in APAC. Assets under management and net new assets for APAC relate to the Private Banking business within the Wealth Management & Connected business.
Gross margin is calculated by dividing net revenues by average assets under management. Net margin is calculated by dividing income before taxes by average assets under management. Adjusted margins are calculated using adjusted results, applying the same methodology to calculate gross and net margin.
Mandate penetration reflects advisory and discretionary mandates volumes as a percentage of assets under management, excluding those from the external asset manager business.
References to Wealth Management mean SUB PC, IWM PB and APAC PB within WM&C or their combined results. References to Wealth Management-related mean SUB, IWM and APAC WM&C or their combined results. References to global advisory and underwriting include global revenues from advisory, debt and equity underwriting generated across all divisions before cross-divisional revenue sharing agreements.

Adjusted results referred to in this media release are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude goodwill impairment and certain other revenues and expenses included in our reported results. Management believes that adjusted results provide a useful presentation of our operating results for purposes of assessing our Group and divisional performance 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.
