  Global Banking & Markets  

 

 

 

Net revenues in Global Banking & Markets were $8.55 billion for the third quarter of 2024, 7% higher than the third quarter of 2023 and 5% higher than the second quarter of 2024.

 

Investment banking fees were $1.87 billion, 20% higher than the third quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting 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. Net revenues in Advisory were slightly higher. The firm’s Investment banking fees backlog3 increased compared with both the end of the second quarter of 2024 and the end of 2023.

 

Net revenues in FICC were $2.96 billion, 12% lower than the third quarter of 2023, reflecting significantly lower net revenues in FICC intermediation, due to significantly lower net revenues in interest rate products and commodities, partially offset by significantly higher net revenues in currencies and credit products and higher net revenues in mortgages. This decrease was partially offset by significantly higher net revenues in FICC financing, primarily driven by mortgages and structured lending.

 

Net revenues in Equities were $3.50 billion, 18% higher than the third quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting significantly higher net revenues in Equities intermediation in both derivatives and cash products. Net revenues in Equities financing were slightly higher.

 

Net revenues in Other were $227 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $110 million for the third quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting higher net gains from direct investments.

Net revenues in Asset & Wealth Management were $3.75 billion for the third quarter of 2024, 16% higher than the third quarter of 2023 and 3% lower than the second quarter of 2024. The increase compared with the third quarter of 2023 primarily reflected net gains in Equity investments compared with net losses in the prior year period and higher Management and other fees, partially offset by significantly lower net revenues in Debt investments. In addition, net revenues in Private banking and lending and Incentive fees were higher.

 

The increase in Equity investments net revenues primarily reflected net gains from investments in corporate private and public equities, compared with net losses in the prior year period. The increase in Management and other fees primarily reflected the impact of higher average assets under supervision. The decrease in Debt investments net revenues primarily reflected lower net interest income due to a reduction in the debt investments balance sheet. The increase in Private banking and lending net revenues primarily reflected the impact of higher deposit balances, and the increase in Incentive fees was driven by harvesting.

  Platform Solutions  

 

   

 

Net revenues in Platform Solutions were $391 million for the third quarter of 2024, 32% lower than the third quarter of 2023 and 42% lower than the second quarter of 2024. The decrease compared with the third quarter of 2023 primarily reflected significantly lower net revenues in Consumer platforms.

 

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.

Provision for Credit Losses

 

Provision for credit losses was $397 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $7 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $282 million for the second quarter of 2024. Provisions for the third quarter of 2024 reflected net provisions related to the credit card portfolio (primarily driven by net charge-offs), partially offset by a net benefit related to the wholesale portfolio (driven by recoveries on previously impaired loans). Provisions for the third quarter of 2023 reflected net provisions related to both the credit card portfolio (primarily driven by net charge-offs) and wholesale loans (driven by impairments, partially offset by a reserve reduction based on increased stability in the macroeconomic environment), offset by a net release related to the GreenSky loan portfolio (including a reserve reduction of $637 million related to the transfer of the portfolio to held for sale).

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses were $8.32 billion for the third quarter of 2024, 8% lower than the third quarter of 2023 and 3% lower than the second quarter of 2024. The firm’s efficiency ratio3 was 64.3% for the first nine months of 2024, compared with 74.4% for the first nine months of 2023.

 

Operating expenses, compared with the third quarter of 2023, reflected decreases driven by a write-down of intangibles related to GreenSky in the prior year period (in depreciation and amortization) and significantly lower expenses, including impairments, related to consolidated real estate investments (largely in depreciation and amortization), partially offset by increases driven by higher transaction based expenses and a write-down of intangibles related to the GM credit card program in the current period (in depreciation and amortization).

 

Net provisions for litigation and regulatory proceedings were $41 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared with $15 million for the third quarter of 2023.

 

Headcount increased 5% compared with the end of the second quarter of 2024, reflecting the timing of campus hires.

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts or statements of current conditions, but instead represent only the firm’s beliefs regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside of the firm’s control. It is possible that the firm’s actual results, financial condition and liquidity may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results, financial condition and liquidity in these forward-looking statements.

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. These estimates are forward-looking statements and are subject to change, possibly materially, as the firm completes its financial statements.

Statements about the firm’s Investment banking fees backlog and future results also may constitute forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to the risk that transactions may be modified or may not be completed at all, and related net revenues may not be realized or may be materially less than expected. Important factors that could have such a result include, for underwriting transactions, a decline or weakness in general economic conditions, an outbreak or worsening of hostilities, including those in Ukraine and the Middle East, volatility in the securities markets or an adverse development with respect to the issuer of the securities and, for financial advisory transactions, a decline in the securities markets, an inability to obtain adequate financing, an adverse development with respect to a party to the transaction or a failure to obtain a required regulatory approval. For information about other important factors that could adversely affect the firm’s Investment banking fees, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of the firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Annualized ROE is calculated by dividing annualized net earnings applicable to common shareholders by average monthly common shareholders’ equity. Annualized ROTE is calculated by dividing annualized net earnings applicable to common shareholders by average monthly tangible common shareholders’ equity (tangible common shareholders’ equity is calculated as total shareholders’ equity less preferred stock, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets). Management believes that ROTE is meaningful because it measures the performance of businesses consistently, whether they were acquired or developed internally, and that tangible common shareholders’ equity is meaningful because it is a measure that the firm and investors use to assess capital adequacy. ROTE and tangible common shareholders’ equity are non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

 

The table below presents a reconciliation of average common shareholders’ equity to average tangible common shareholders’ equity:
