These factors also may have an adverse impact on our ability to achieve our strategic objectives. Additionally, the discussion of our results of operations herein may contain forward-looking statements. These statements, which reflect management’s beliefs and expectations, are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Non-Interest Expenses
($ in millions)
•Compensation and benefits expenses of $8,187 million in the current quarter and $16,729 million in the current year period increased 14% compared with the prior year periods, primarily due to an increase in the formulaic payout to Wealth Management advisors and higher discretionary incentive compensation within Institutional Securities, both based on higher revenues.
During the current year period, as a result of a March workforce management action, we recognized severance costs of $178 million in Compensation and benefits expense. For more information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Executive Summary” in the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.
•Non-compensation expenses of $5,715 million in the current quarter and $10,644 million in the current year period increased 19% and 14%, respectively, compared with the prior year periods, primarily due to higher execution-related expenses and increased technology spend.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Provision for credit losses on loans and lending commitments of $98 million in the current quarter and $196 million in the current year period was primarily related to certain specific commercial real estate and corporate loans and portfolio growth in corporate loans and secured lending facilities. The Provision for credit losses on loans and lending commitments of $196 million in the prior year quarter and $331 million in the prior year period was primarily related to portfolio growth in corporate loans and secured lending facilities and a macroeconomic outlook reflecting slower GDP growth.
For further information on the Provision for credit losses, see “Credit Risk” herein.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Economic and Market Conditions
The economic environment exhibited strength in the second quarter of 2026, characterized by active capital markets supported by the adoption of AI and improved investor sentiment. Geopolitical risk, inflation, rising asset prices, the rate of economic growth and the future path of monetary policy represent ongoing uncertainties which could continue to impact the capital markets and our businesses.
We continue to monitor the developments in the Middle East and their impact on the regional economy, global economic conditions, and financial markets. Our direct exposure to the region remains limited.
For more information on economic and market conditions, and the potential effects of geopolitical events on our future results, refer to “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Selected Non-GAAP Financial Information
We prepare our financial statements using U.S. GAAP. From time to time, we may disclose certain “non-GAAP financial measures” in this document or in the course of our earnings releases, earnings and other conference calls, financial presentations, definitive proxy statements and other public disclosures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” excludes, or includes, amounts from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We consider the non-GAAP financial measures we disclose to be useful to us, investors, analysts and other stakeholders by providing further transparency about, or an alternate means of assessing or comparing our financial condition, operating results and capital adequacy.
These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, U.S. GAAP and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Whenever we refer to a non-GAAP financial measure, we will also generally define it or present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, along with a reconciliation of the differences between the U.S. GAAP financial measure and the non-GAAP financial measure.
For the prior year periods, we present certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of mark-to-market gains and losses on DCP investments from net revenues and compensation expenses. The impact of DCP is primarily reflected in our Wealth Management business segment results. These measures allow for better comparability of period-to-period underlying operating performance and revenue trends, especially in our Wealth Management business segment. By excluding the impact of these items, we are better able to describe the business drivers and resulting impact to net revenues and corresponding change to the associated compensation expenses for the prior year period.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, derivatives were designated as cash flow hedges of the equity price risk associated with the majority of unvested DCP awards within our Wealth Management business segment. Changes in fair value of these cash flow hedging derivatives are recorded in OCI and subsequently reclassified into compensation expense in the same period that the related DCP award vests and is recognized in compensation expense.
Additionally, in the first quarter of 2026, we commenced the use of derivatives as economic hedges of the equity price risk primarily associated with the vested DCP awards within our Wealth Management business segment. The Firm presents changes in the fair value of these economic derivative hedges in compensation expense.
Previously, the Firm economically hedged DCP awards primarily with cash instrument hedges whereby changes in the fair value of such hedges, net of financing costs, were recorded in net revenues.
The use of derivatives as cash flow hedges of certain DCP awards is expected to substantially mitigate timing differences between the recognition of changes in the fair value of the hedging instruments and the deferred recognition of related DCP compensation expense over the vesting period. The expected mitigation of these timing differences, alongside the associated income statement changes described above, enables us to better present the operating performance and revenue trends. Accordingly, we no longer present non-GAAP financial measures excluding DCP.
For additional information on DCP, refer to “Other Matters” herein and Note 2 to the financial statements.
Tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe analysts, investors and other stakeholders consider useful to allow for comparability to peers and of the period-to-period use of our equity. The calculation of tangible common equity represents common shareholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets net of allowable mortgage servicing rights deduction. In addition, we believe that certain ratios that utilize tangible common equity, such as return on average tangible common equity (“ROTCE”) and tangible book value per common share, also non-GAAP financial measures, are useful for evaluating the operating performance and capital adequacy of the business period-to-period, respectively. The calculation of ROTCE represents annualized earnings applicable to Morgan Stanley common shareholders as a percentage of average tangible common equity. The calculation of tangible book value per common share represents tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding.
The principal non-GAAP financial measures presented in this document are set forth in the following tables.

The sums of the segments’ Average common equity and Average tangible common equity do not equal the Consolidated measures due to Parent Company equity.
2.The calculation of ROE and ROTCE by segment uses net income applicable to Morgan Stanley by segment less preferred dividends allocated to each segment, annualized as a percentage of average common equity and average tangible common equity, respectively, allocated to each segment.
Return on Tangible Common Equity Goal
We have an ROTCE goal of 20%. Our ROTCE goal is a forward-looking statement that is based on a normal market environment and may be materially affected by many factors.
See “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” in the 2025 Form 10-K for further information on market and economic conditions and their potential effects on our future operating results.
ROTCE represents a non-GAAP financial measure. For further information on non-GAAP measures, see “Selected Non-GAAP Financial Information” herein.
Business Segments
Substantially all of our operating revenues and operating expenses are directly attributable to our business segments. Certain revenues and expenses have been allocated to each business segment, generally in proportion to its respective net revenues, non-interest expenses or other relevant measures. See Note 19 to the financial statements for segment net revenues by income statement line item and information on intersegment transactions.
For an overview of the components of our business segments, net revenues, provision for credit losses, compensation expense and income taxes, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Business Segments” in the 2025 Form 10-K.

Equity
Net revenues of $6,300 million in the current quarter and $11,448 million in the current year period increased 69% and 46%, respectively, compared with the prior year periods, reflecting an increase in Financing and Execution services, particularly in Asia.
•Financing revenues increased primarily due to increased client activity and higher average client balances.
•Execution services revenues increased primarily due to higher results in derivatives and increased client activity in cash equities.
Fixed Income
Net revenues of $2,455 million in the current quarter increased 13% from the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting an increase in Credit products.
•Global macro products revenues were relatively unchanged compared with the prior year quarter, primarily driven by a decline in foreign exchange products, offset by higher gains on inventory held to facilitate client activity in rates products.
•Credit products revenues increased primarily due to higher results on inventory held to facilitate client activity in corporate credit products and the cumulative impact of lending growth in the securitized products business.
•Commodities products and other fixed income revenues increased primarily due to higher results on inventory held to facilitate client activity in power and gas, partially offset by losses compared with gains in the prior year quarter on inventory held to facilitate client activity in oil and products.
Net revenues of $5,813 million in the current year period increased 22% from the prior year period, primarily reflecting an increase in Commodities and Credit products.
•Global macro products revenues decreased primarily due to lower gains on inventory held to facilitate client activity, partially offset by increased client activity, both in rates and foreign exchange products.
•Credit products revenues increased primarily due to higher results in corporate credit products and the cumulative impact of lending growth in the securitized products business.
•Commodities products and other fixed income revenues increased primarily due to higher results in oil, power and gas products.
Other Net Revenues
Other net revenues reflected a loss of $152 million in the current quarter compared with a gain of $202 million in the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting higher mark-to-market losses on corporate loans, inclusive of hedges.
Other net revenues reflected a loss of $53 million in the current year period compared with a gain of $894 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by mark-to-market losses on corporate loans, inclusive of hedges, compared with realized gains on the sale of corporate loans held-for-sale in the prior year period.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Provision for credit losses on loans and lending commitments of $71 million in the current quarter and $163 million in the current year period was primarily related to certain specific commercial real estate and corporate loans and portfolio growth in corporate loans and secured lending facilities. The Provision for credit losses on loans and lending commitments of $168 million in the prior year quarter and $259 million in the prior year period was primarily related to portfolio growth in corporate loans and secured lending facilities and a macroeconomic outlook reflecting slower GDP growth.
For further information on the Provision for credit losses, see “Credit Risk” herein.
Non-Interest Expenses
Non-interest expenses of $6,707 million in the current quarter and $13,175 million in the current year period increased 25% and 20%, respectively, compared with the prior year periods, reflecting higher Non-compensation expenses and Compensation and benefits expenses.
•Compensation and benefits expenses increased primarily due to higher discretionary incentive compensation on higher revenues.
•Non-compensation expenses increased primarily due to higher execution-related expenses.

Any revenues earned by Wealth Management on client assets will vary depending upon the services and products provided. The level of NNA in a given period is influenced by a variety of factors, including client investment and spending behaviors, seasonality, our ability to attract and retain financial advisors and clients, capital market and corporate activities which may impact the amount of assets in certain client channels, and large idiosyncratic inflows and outflows, including single large client events. These factors have had an impact on our NNA in recent periods. Should these factors continue, the growth rate of our NNA may be impacted.
NNA for the current quarter were $148 billion, of which just over half represented inflows related to IPOs of certain clients in our Workplace channel.

Net Revenues
Asset Management
Asset management revenues of $5,261 million in the current quarter and $10,340 million in the current year period increased 19% and 17%, respectively, compared with the prior year periods, primarily reflecting higher fee-based assets due to higher market levels and the cumulative impact of positive fee-based flows.
See “Fee-Based Client Assets Rollforwards” herein.
Transactional Revenues
Transactional revenues of $1,167 million in the current quarter decreased 8% compared with the prior year quarter, primarily driven by $294 million gains on DCP investments in the prior year quarter, which are no longer presented in net revenues, partially offset by higher client activity across products and channels.
Transactional revenues of $2,294 million in the current year period increased 7% compared with the prior year period, primarily driven by higher client activity across products and channels, partially offset by $163 million gains on DCP investments in the prior year period, which are no longer presented in net revenues.
For further information on the impact of DCP and our use of derivatives as hedges of certain DCP awards beginning in the first quarter of 2026, see “Selected Non-GAAP Financial Information” herein.
Net Interest
Net interest revenues of $2,254 million in the current quarter and $4,424 million in the current year period increased 18% and 16%, respectively, compared with the prior year periods, primarily due to the cumulative impact of lending growth and higher average sweep deposits.
The level and pace of interest rate changes and other macroeconomic factors have impacted client preferences, including cash allocation to other products and client demand for loans. These factors, along with other developments, such as pricing changes to certain deposit types due to various competitive dynamics and central bank actions, have impacted our net interest income. To the extent they persist, or other factors arise, net interest income may be impacted in future periods.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Provision for credit losses on loans and lending commitments of $27 million in the current quarter was primarily related to certain specific loans in our tailored lending portfolio and portfolio growth. The Provision for credit losses on loans and lending commitments of $28 million in the prior year quarter was primarily related to certain specific loans in our tailored lending portfolio and portfolio growth in residential real estate loans.
The Provision for credit losses on loans and lending commitments of $33 million in the current year period was primarily related to certain specific loans in our tailored lending portfolio and portfolio growth. The Provision for credit losses on loans and lending commitments of $72 million in the prior year period was primarily related to certain specific loans in our tailored lending portfolio and residential real estate loans related to California wildfires.
For further information on the Provision for credit losses, see “Credit Risk” herein.
Non-Interest Expenses
Non-interest expenses of $6,132 million in the current quarter and $12,054 million in the current year period increased 11% in both periods compared with the prior year periods, primarily as a result of higher Compensation and benefits expenses.
•Compensation and benefits expenses increased, primarily as a result of an increase in the formulaic payout to Wealth Management advisors driven by higher compensable revenues.

Net Revenues
Asset Management and Related Fees
Asset management and related fees of $1,516 million in the current quarter and $3,012 million in the current year period increased 6% and 4% from the prior year periods, primarily driven by higher average AUM on higher market levels and the cumulative impact of positive long-term net flows, partially offset by lower average fee rates, reflecting a change in asset mix.
Asset management revenues are influenced by the level, relative mix of AUM and related fee rates. While higher market levels drove increases in average AUM in the current quarter, there were continued net outflows in the Equity asset class, which may be influenced by the structure and performance of our investment strategies and products
relative to their benchmarks, offset by higher net inflows in the Alternatives and Solutions and Fixed Income asset classes, reflecting client preferences. To the extent these conditions continue, we would expect our Asset management revenue to continue to be impacted.
See “Assets Under Management or Supervision” herein.
Performance-based Income and Other
Performance-based income and other revenues of $130 million in the current quarter were relatively unchanged from the prior year quarter, as a result of higher net investment gains, offset by lower accrued carried interest in certain private funds.
Performance-based income and other revenues of $169 million in the current year period decreased from the prior year period, primarily due to lower accrued carried interest in certain private funds, partially offset by higher net investment gains in private funds.
Non-Interest Expenses
Non-interest expenses of $1,242 million in the current quarter and $2,497 million in the current year period were relatively unchanged from the prior year periods, as a result of lower Compensation and benefits expenses, offset by higher Non-compensation expenses.
•Compensation and benefits expenses decreased, primarily due to lower expenses related to compensation associated with carried interest.
•Non-compensation expenses increased, primarily due to higher brokerage and clearing expenses and increased technology spend.

Both MSBNA and MSPBNA source deposits from Wealth Management clients, utilize other sources of funding, and maintain investment portfolios for liquidity and interest rate risk management purposes.
Consistent with the Firm’s strategic objective of ongoing growth of eligible assets at MSBNA, on February 14, 2026, the Fixed Income business of Morgan Stanley Capital Services LLC (“MSCS”) was merged into MSBNA, and on March 14, 2026, Morgan Stanley Europe SE (“MSESE”), together with its subsidiary Morgan Stanley Bank AG (collectively, the “MSESE Group”) was acquired by MSBNA (collectively the “Reorganization”). In the following table, U.S. Bank Subsidiaries’ Supplemental Financial Information is presented as if the Reorganization occurred at the beginning of 2025. Prior period amounts have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.

Other Matters
Deferred Cash-Based Compensation
The Firm sponsors a number of deferred cash-based compensation programs and stock-based compensation programs for current and former employees, including financial advisors in the Wealth Management business segment, which generally contain vesting, clawback and cancellation provisions. Deferred compensation for financial advisors in the Wealth Management business segment is generally composed of 75% cash-based awards and 25% stock-based awards. The following discussion relates only to deferred cash-based compensation.
Employees are permitted to allocate the value of their deferred cash-based awards among a menu of notional investments, whereby the value of their awards will track the performance of the referenced notional investments. The menu of investments, which is selected by the Firm, includes fixed income, equity, commodity and money market funds.
Compensation expense for DCP awards is calculated based on the notional value of the award granted, adjusted for changes in the fair value of the referenced investments that employees select. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period relevant to each separately vesting portion of deferred awards.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, hedges for Wealth Management DCP awards were primarily transitioned to derivative instruments. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2026, the Firm reduced the amount of deferred compensation as a proportion of total compensation for Wealth Management advisors. For further information see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Other Matters” in the 2025 Form 10-K and “Selected Non-GAAP Financial Information” and Note 2 to the financial statements herein.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Accounting Development Updates
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued certain accounting updates that apply to us. Accounting updates not referenced below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or to not have a material impact on our financial statements upon adoption.
•ASU 2025-06 - Internal-Use Software (Issued September 2025). This update introduces targeted improvements to the recognition and capitalization guidance for internal-use software costs. The update eliminates the prior “project stage” framework and instead requires capitalization of software development costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform its intended function. In assessing the probability threshold, entities are required to evaluate whether significant development uncertainty exists, including whether the software contains novel or unproven functionality or whether significant performance requirements have not been identified or continue to be substantially revised. The update is effective for the Firm beginning January 1, 2028, with early adoption permitted. Transition may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or under a modified approach. We are currently evaluating this accounting update.
•ASU 2026-02 – Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Issued May 2026). This update establishes guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of environmental credit assets and environmental credit obligations. This update requires entities to recognize and measure: (1) environmental credit assets based on their intended use (e.g., compliance environmental credits, noncompliance environmental credits and voluntary credits) as well as how the credits are obtained (e.g., acquired, internally generated); and (2) environmental credit obligations based on whether the entity holds and expects to use compliance environmental credits to settle that obligation. The update is effective for the Firm beginning January 1, 2028, with early adoption permitted. Transition should be applied on a modified retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating this accounting update; however, we do not expect a material impact on our financial statements upon adoption.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions (see Note 1 to the financial statements). We believe that of our significant accounting policies (see Note 2 to the financial statements in the 2025 Form 10-K and Note 2 to the financial statements), the fair value of financial instruments, goodwill and intangible assets, legal and regulatory contingencies (see Note 14 to the financial statements in the 2025 Form 10-K and Note 13 to the financial statements) and income taxes policies involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. For a further discussion about our critical accounting policies,
see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Estimates” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity and capital policies are established and maintained by senior management, with oversight by the Asset/Liability Management Committee and our Board of Directors (“Board”). Through various risk and control committees, senior management reviews business performance relative to these policies, monitors the availability of alternative sources of financing, and oversees the liquidity, interest rate and currency sensitivity of our asset and liability position. Our Corporate Treasury department (“Treasury”), Firm Risk Committee, Asset/Liability Management Committee, and other committees and control groups assist in evaluating, monitoring and managing the impact that our business activities have on our balance sheet, liquidity and capital structure. Liquidity and capital matters are reported regularly to the Board and the Risk Committee of the Board.
Balance Sheet
We monitor and evaluate the composition and size of our balance sheet on a regular basis. Our balance sheet management process includes quarterly planning, business-specific thresholds, monitoring of business-specific usage versus key performance metrics and new business impact assessments.
We establish balance sheet thresholds at the consolidated and business segment levels. We monitor balance sheet utilization and review variances resulting from business activity and market fluctuations. On a regular basis, we review current performance versus established thresholds and assess the need to re-allocate our balance sheet based on business segment needs. We also monitor key metrics, including asset and liability size and capital usage.

1.In connection with MSBNA’s acquisition of MSESE and the merging of the Fixed Income business of MSCS into MSBNA, the Firm updated its segment balance sheet allocation methodology in the first quarter of 2026. As a result of this update, certain liquid marketable securities and cash which were previously included in the Wealth Management balance sheet are included within the Institutional Securities balance sheet beginning in the first quarter of 2026 to align liquidity resources with segment activities.
2.Amounts include loans held for investment, net of ACL, and loans held for sale but exclude loans at fair value, which are included in Trading assets in the balance sheet (see Note 9 to the financial statements).
3.Other assets primarily includes premises, equipment and software, ROU assets related to leases, other investments and deferred tax assets.
A substantial portion of total assets consists of cash and cash equivalents, liquid marketable securities and short-term receivables. In the Institutional Securities business segment, these arise from market-making, financing and prime brokerage activities, and in the Wealth Management business segment, these arise from banking activities. Liquid marketable securities arising from management of the investment portfolio are included in the balance sheets of the Institutional Securities and Wealth Management business segments. For further information, refer to Note 19 to the financial statements.
Liquidity Risk Management Framework
The core components of our Liquidity Risk Management Framework are the Required Liquidity Framework, Liquidity Stress Tests and Liquidity Resources, which support our target liquidity profile. For a further discussion about the Firm’s Required Liquidity Framework and Liquidity Stress Tests, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Liquidity Risk Management Framework” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we maintained sufficient liquidity to meet current and contingent funding obligations as modeled in our Liquidity Stress Tests.
Liquidity Resources
We maintain sufficient Liquidity Resources, which consist of HQLA and cash deposits with banks, to cover daily funding needs and to meet strategic liquidity targets sized by the Required Liquidity Framework and Liquidity Stress Tests. We actively manage the amount of our Liquidity Resources
considering the following components: unsecured debt maturity profile; balance sheet size and composition; funding needs in a stressed environment, inclusive of contingent cash outflows; legal entity, regional and segment liquidity requirements; regulatory requirements; and collateral requirements.
The amount of Liquidity Resources we hold is based on our risk appetite and is calibrated to meet various internal and regulatory requirements and to fund prospective business activities. The Liquidity Resources are primarily held within the Parent Company and its major operating subsidiaries. The Total HQLA values in the tables immediately following are different from Eligible HQLA, which, in accordance with the LCR rule, also takes into account certain regulatory weightings and other operational considerations.

estimates of funding needs in a stressed environment, among other factors.
Regulatory Liquidity Framework
Liquidity Coverage Ratio and Net Stable Funding Ratio
We and our U.S. Bank Subsidiaries are required to maintain a minimum LCR and NSFR of 100%.
The LCR rule requires large banking organizations to have sufficient Eligible HQLA to cover net cash outflows arising from significant stress over 30 calendar days, thus promoting the short-term resilience of the liquidity risk profile of banking organizations. In determining Eligible HQLA for LCR purposes, weightings (or asset haircuts) are applied to HQLA, and certain HQLA held in subsidiaries is excluded.
The NSFR rule requires large banking organizations to maintain an amount of available stable funding, which is their regulatory capital and liabilities subject to standardized weightings, equal to or greater than their required stable funding, which is their projected minimum funding needs, over a one-year time horizon.
As of June 30, 2026, we and our U.S. Bank Subsidiaries are compliant with the minimum LCR and NSFR requirements of 100%.

Funding Management
We manage our funding in a manner that reduces the risk of disruption to our operations. We pursue a strategy of diversification of secured and unsecured funding sources (by product, investor and region) and attempt to ensure that the tenor of our liabilities equals or exceeds the expected holding period of the assets being financed. Our goal is to achieve an optimal mix of durable secured and unsecured financing.
We fund our balance sheet on a global basis through diverse sources. These sources include our equity capital, borrowings, bank notes, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, securities lending, deposits, letters of credit and lines of credit. We have active financing programs for both standard and structured products targeting global investors and currencies.
Treasury allocates interest expense to our businesses based on the tenor and interest rate profile of the assets being funded. Treasury similarly allocates interest income to businesses carrying deposit products and other liabilities across the businesses based on the characteristics of those deposits and other liabilities.

Receivables under these financing transactions, primarily margin loans, are included in Customer and other receivables in the balance sheet, and payables under these financing transactions, primarily to prime brokerage customers, are included in Customer and other payables in the balance sheet. Our risk exposure on these transactions is mitigated by collateral maintenance policies and the elements of our Liquidity Risk Management Framework.

1.Original maturity in the table is generally based on contractual final maturity. For borrowings with put options, maturity represents the earliest put date.
2.Includes only borrowings with original maturities greater than one year.
Borrowings of $393 billion as of June 30, 2026 increased compared with $349 billion at December 31, 2025, primarily due to non-bank issuances net of maturities and redemptions.
We believe that accessing debt investors through multiple distribution channels helps provide consistent access to the unsecured markets. In addition, the issuance of borrowings with original maturities greater than one year allows us to reduce reliance on short-term credit-sensitive instruments. Borrowings with original maturities greater than one year are generally managed to achieve staggered maturities, thereby mitigating refinancing risk, and to maximize investor
diversification through sales to global institutional and retail clients across regions, currencies and product types.
The availability and cost of financing to us can vary depending on market conditions, the volume of certain trading and lending activities, our credit ratings and the overall availability of credit. We also engage in, and may continue to engage in, repurchases of our borrowings as part of our market-making activities.
For further information on Borrowings, see Note 12 to the financial statements.
Credit Ratings
We rely on external sources to finance a significant portion of our daily operations. Our credit ratings are one of the factors in the cost and availability of financing and can have an impact on certain trading revenues, particularly in those businesses where longer-term counterparty performance is a key consideration, such as certain OTC derivative transactions. When determining credit ratings, rating agencies consider both company-specific and industry-wide factors. See also “Risk Factors—Liquidity Risk” in the 2025 Form 10-K.

Incremental Collateral or Terminating Payments
In connection with certain OTC derivatives and certain other agreements where we are a liquidity provider to certain financing vehicles associated with the Institutional Securities business segment, we may be required to provide additional collateral, immediately settle any outstanding liability balances with certain counterparties or pledge additional collateral to certain clearing organizations in the event of a future credit rating downgrade irrespective of whether we are in a net asset or net liability position. See Note 6 to the

financial statements for additional information on OTC derivatives that contain such contingent features.
While certain aspects of a credit rating downgrade are quantifiable pursuant to contractual provisions, the impact it would have on our business and results of operations in future periods is inherently uncertain and would depend on a number of interrelated factors, including, among other things, the magnitude of the downgrade, the rating relative to peers, the rating assigned by the relevant agency before the downgrade, individual client behavior and future mitigating actions we might take. The liquidity impact of additional collateral requirements is included in our Liquidity Stress Tests.
Capital Management
We view capital as an important source of financial strength and actively manage our consolidated capital position based upon, among other things, business opportunities, risks, capital availability and rates of return together with internal capital policies, regulatory requirements, such as the SCB, and rating agency guidelines. In the future, we may expand or contract our capital base to address the changing needs of our businesses.

Regulatory Requirements
Regulatory Capital Framework
We are a financial holding company (“FHC”) under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended and are subject to the regulation and oversight of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”). The Federal Reserve establishes capital requirements for us, including “well-capitalized” standards, and evaluates our compliance with such capital requirements. The OCC establishes similar capital requirements and well-capitalized standards for our U.S. Bank Subsidiaries. The regulatory capital requirements are largely based on the Basel III capital standards established by the Basel Committee and on certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. For us to remain an FHC, we must remain well-capitalized in accordance with standards established by the Federal Reserve, and our U.S. Bank Subsidiaries must remain well-capitalized in accordance with standards established by the OCC. In addition, many of our regulated subsidiaries are subject to regulatory capital requirements, including regulated subsidiaries registered as swap dealers with the CFTC or conditionally registered as security-based swap dealers with the SEC or registered as broker-dealers or futures commission merchants. For additional information on regulatory capital requirements for our U.S. Bank Subsidiaries, as well as our subsidiaries that are swap entities, see Note 15 to the financial statements.
Regulatory Capital Requirements
We are required to maintain minimum risk-based and leverage-based capital and TLAC ratios. For more information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Regulatory Capital Requirements” in the 2025 Form 10-K. For additional information on TLAC, see “Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity, Long-Term Debt and Clean Holding Company Requirements” herein.

The capital conservation buffer requirement represents the amount of CET1 capital we must maintain above the minimum risk-based capital requirements in order to avoid restrictions on our ability to make capital distributions, including the payment of dividends and the repurchase of stock, and to pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers. Our capital conservation buffer requirement computed under the standardized approaches for calculating credit risk and market RWAs (“Standardized Approach”) is equal to the sum of our SCB, G-SIB capital surcharge and CCyB, and our capital conservation buffer requirement computed under the applicable advanced approaches for calculating credit risk, market risk and operational risk RWAs (“Advanced Approach”) is equal to the sum of a fixed 2.5% buffer, our G-SIB capital surcharge and CCyB.

1.Required ratios represent the regulatory minimum plus the capital conservation buffer requirement.
Our risk-based capital ratios are computed under each of (i) the Standardized Approach and (ii) the Advanced Approach. The credit risk RWA calculations between the two approaches differ in that the Standardized Approach requires calculation of RWA using prescribed risk weights and exposure methodologies, whereas the Advanced Approach utilizes models to calculate exposure amounts and risk weights. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the differences between the actual and required ratios were lower under the Standardized Approach.
Leverage-Based Regulatory Capital. Leverage-based capital requirements include a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4%, a minimum SLR of 3% and an enhanced supplementary
leverage ratio (“eSLR”) capital buffer of at least 0.5%. As of January 1, 2026, the Firm and its U.S. Bank Subsidiaries elected to early adopt the final rulemaking on changes to the eSLR by the U.S. banking agencies. Under the final rule, the eSLR buffer applicable to U.S. G-SIBs equals 50% of each BHC’s Method 1 G-SIB capital surcharge, which equates to 0.5% for the Firm, applied above the 3.0% minimum SLR requirement. For more information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Regulatory Developments and Other Matters—Final Rulemaking on Changes to the Enhanced Supplementary Leverage Ratio” in the 2025 Form 10-K.

Regulatory VaR—VaR for regulatory capital requirements
In the current year period, Credit risk RWA increased under both the Standardized and Advanced Approaches. Under the Standardized Approach, the increase was primarily due to higher Commitments, guarantees and loans, Securities financing transactions, Other credit risk and Derivatives exposures, particularly in equities. Under the Advanced Approach, the increase was primarily due to higher Commitments, guarantees and loans and Other credit risk.
Market risk RWA increased in the current year period under both the Standardized and Advanced Approaches, primarily driven by higher Regulatory stressed VaR and Regulatory VaR, partially offset by Specific Risk due to securitization standardized charges.
Operational risk RWA in the current year period remained relatively unchanged.
Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity, Long-Term Debt and Clean Holding Company Requirements
The Federal Reserve has established external TLAC, long-term debt (“LTD”) and clean holding company requirements for top-tier BHCs of U.S. G-SIBs (“covered BHCs”), including the Parent Company. These requirements are designed to ensure that covered BHCs will have enough loss-absorbing resources at the point of failure to be recapitalized through the conversion of eligible LTD to equity or otherwise

Capital Plans, Stress Tests and the Stress Capital Buffer
The Federal Reserve has capital planning and stress test requirements for large BHCs, which form part of the Federal Reserve’s annual CCAR framework.
We must submit, on at least an annual basis, a capital plan to the Federal Reserve, taking into account the results of separate annual stress tests designed by us and the Federal Reserve, so that the Federal Reserve may assess our systems and processes that incorporate forward-looking projections of revenues and losses to monitor and maintain our internal capital adequacy.
During 2026, as insured depository institutions (“IDIs”) with less than $250 billion of average total assets over the four most recent consecutive quarters through March 31, 2025, our U.S. Bank Subsidiaries are not subject to company-run stress test regulatory requirements by the OCC. Beginning in 2027, based on its average total assets over the four most recent consecutive quarters through March 31, 2026, MSBNA will become subject to company-run stress test regulatory requirements.
As part of its annual capital supervisory stress testing process, the Federal Reserve determines an SCB for each large BHC, including us.
In 2025, the Federal Reserve proposed revisions to the SCB, CCAR and supervisory stress testing frameworks. While those proposals are under review, the Firm remains subject to its current SCB requirement of 4.3% through October 1, 2027, at which time a new SCB requirement may apply based on the results of the supervisory stress test conducted in 2027. Together with other features of the regulatory capital framework, this SCB resulted in an aggregate Standardized Approach CET1 required ratio of 11.8%. See “Regulatory Developments and Other Matters—Proposed Changes to Capital Requirements” and “Regulatory Developments and Other Matters—Supervisory Stress Testing” herein.
For the 2026 capital planning and stress test cycle, we submitted our capital plan and company-run stress test results to the Federal Reserve on April 6, 2026. On June 24, 2026, the Federal Reserve published summary results of its supervisory stress tests of each large BHC, which do not impact firms’ SCB requirements. We also disclosed a summary of the results of our company-run stress tests on our Investor Relations website and increased our quarterly common stock dividend to $1.15 per share from $1.00, beginning with the common stock dividend announced on July 15, 2026.
For additional information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Regulatory Requirements—Capital Plans, Stress Tests and the Stress Capital Buffer” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Attribution of Average Common Equity According to the Required Capital Framework
Our required capital (“Required Capital”) estimation is based on the Required Capital framework, an internal capital adequacy measure. Common equity attribution to the business segments is based on capital usage calculated under the Required Capital framework, as well as each business segment’s relative contribution to our total Required Capital.
The Required Capital framework is a risk-based and leverage-based capital measure, which is compared with our regulatory capital to ensure that we maintain an amount of going concern capital after absorbing potential losses from stress events, where applicable, at a point in time. The amount of capital allocated to the business segments is generally set at the beginning of each year and remains fixed throughout the year until the next annual reset unless a significant business change occurs (e.g., acquisition or disposition). We define the difference between our total average common equity and the sum of the average common equity amounts allocated to our business segments as Parent Company common equity. We generally hold Parent Company common equity for

1.The attribution of average common equity to the business segments is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Selected Non-GAAP Financial Information” herein.
We continue to evaluate our Required Capital framework with respect to the impact of evolving regulatory requirements, as appropriate.
Resolution and Recovery Planning
We are required to submit once every two years to the Federal Reserve and the FDIC a resolution plan that describes our strategy for a rapid and orderly resolution under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the event of our material financial distress or failure. We submitted our 2025 targeted resolution plan on June 30, 2025. In May 2026, we received joint feedback on our 2025 targeted resolution plan from the agencies, with no shortcomings or deficiencies identified.
As described in our most recent resolution plan, our preferred resolution strategy is an SPOE strategy, which would impose losses on the holders of eligible LTD and other forms of eligible TLAC issued by the Parent Company before any losses are imposed on creditors of our supported entities and without requiring taxpayer or government financial support.
For more information about resolution and recovery planning requirements and our activities in these areas, including the implications of such activities in a resolution scenario, see “Business—Supervision and Regulation—Financial Holding Company—Resolution and Recovery Planning,” “Risk Factors—Legal, Regulatory and Compliance Risk” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Regulatory Requirements—Resolution and Recovery Planning” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Regulatory Developments and Other Matters
Proposed Changes to Capital Requirements
On April 17, 2025, the Federal Reserve proposed revisions to the SCB and CCAR frameworks applicable to us, aimed at reducing the volatility of the capital requirements stemming from the Federal Reserve’s annual stress test results. Under the proposal, our SCB would be based, in part, on the average of the post-stress capital decline embedded in the Federal Reserve’s stress test results over two consecutive years.
Additionally, the proposal would shift the annual effective date of the revised SCB from October 1 to January 1 of the following year and modify certain elements of the Federal Reserve’s CCAR program.
Supervisory Stress Testing
On October 24, 2025, the Federal Reserve proposed revisions to its supervisory stress testing framework through two related proposals. The first proposal would modify the timeline and operation of the annual supervisory stress test, including through revisions to the Federal Reserve’s supervisory stress testing policy statements, and solicits comment on the Federal Reserve’s supervisory stress testing models. The second proposal solicited comment on the Federal Reserve’s proposed scenarios for the 2026 supervisory stress test. On February 4, 2026, the Federal Reserve finalized the second proposal, and in addition announced that it expects the Firm will continue to be subject to its current SCB requirement of 4.3% until October 1, 2027. We continue to monitor developments related to the open proposal.
Basel III Proposal
On March 19, 2026, the U.S. banking agencies proposed revisions to risk-based capital and related standards applicable to Category I and II banking organizations, including us and our U.S. Bank Subsidiaries (“Basel III Proposal”). The Basel III Proposal would introduce a new measure of RWAs known as “Expanded Total RWAs” (the “Expanded Approach”), reflecting new RWA methodologies that generally align with changes to the global Basel Accord adopted by the Basel Committee. The Basel III Proposal would eliminate the current capital rule’s Advanced Approach and require Category I and II banking organizations to calculate RWAs only under the Expanded Approach, with the Standardized Approach retained for smaller banking organizations. As compared with the Standardized Approach, the Expanded Approach includes more granular risk weights for credit risk and introduces a new market risk framework. In addition, unlike the Standardized Approach, the Expanded Approach includes operational risk and credit valuation adjustment RWA components.
The Basel III Proposal would apply the SCB and G-SIB Surcharge to risk-based capital requirements calculated under the Expanded Approach. The effective date of the Basel III Proposal is unspecified in the Basel III Proposal. We continue to evaluate the Basel III Proposal and its potential impacts on our capital requirements and our Required Capital Framework, which will depend in part on related changes to the Federal Reserve’s supervisory stress testing framework and its related proposed rulemaking to revise the G-SIB Surcharge.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
G-SIB Surcharge Proposal
On March 19, 2026, the Federal Reserve proposed revisions to the G-SIB Surcharge framework applicable to us (“G-SIB Surcharge Proposal”). The G-SIB Surcharge Proposal would modify Method 2 by adjusting the calculation and weighting of the short-term wholesale funding component and, for other systemic indicators, introducing a one-time downward adjustment. All Method 2 systemic indicators would be indexed in the future to nominal U.S. GDP. In addition, for Method 2, the G-SIB Surcharge Proposal would require measurement of most systemic indicators based on the annual average of daily or monthly values and would revise the resulting G-SIB Surcharge from 0.5-percentage point increments to 0.1-percentage point increments. The G-SIB Surcharge Proposal would also result in corresponding technical changes to Method 1 G-SIB surcharge requirements. The G-SIB Surcharge Proposal includes a proposed effective date two calendar quarters after the date of adoption of a final rule by the Federal Reserve and new surcharges calculated under the revised methodology would take effect at a later date. We continue to evaluate the G-SIB Surcharge Proposal and the potential impacts, if adopted, on our capital requirements and our Required Capital Framework.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk
Management believes effective risk management is vital to the success of our business activities. For a discussion of our Enterprise Risk Management framework and risk management functions, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Risk Management” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Market Risk
Market risk refers to the risk that a change in the level of one or more market prices, rates, spreads, indices, volatilities, correlations or other market factors, such as market liquidity, will result in losses for a position or portfolio. Generally, we incur market risk as a result of trading, investing and client facilitation activities, principally within the Institutional Securities business segment where the substantial majority of our VaR for market risk exposures is generated. In addition, we incur non-trading market risk, principally within the Wealth Management and Investment Management business segments. The Wealth Management business segment primarily incurs non-trading market risk (including interest rate risk) from lending and deposit-taking activities. The Investment Management business segment primarily incurs non-trading market risk from capital investments in its funds. For a further discussion of market risk, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Market Risk” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Trading Risks
We have exposures to a wide range of risks related to interest rates and credit spreads, equity prices, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices as well as the associated implied volatilities, correlations and spreads of the global markets in which we conduct our trading activities.
The statistical technique known as VaR is one of the tools we use to measure, monitor and review the market risk exposures of our trading portfolios.
For information regarding our primary risk exposures and market risk management, VaR methodology, assumptions and limitations, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Market Risk—Trading Risks” in the 2025 Form 10-K.

1.The high and low VaR values for the Total Management VaR and each of the component VaRs might have occurred on different days during the quarter, and, therefore, the diversification benefit is not an applicable measure.
2.Diversification benefit equals the difference between the total VaR and the sum of the component VaRs. This benefit arises because the simulated one-day losses for each of the components occur on different days. Similar diversification benefits are also taken into account within each component.
Average Total Management VaR for the Primary Risk Categories was relatively unchanged from the three months ended March 31, 2026. Period-end Total Management VaR for the Primary Risk Categories decreased from March 31, 2026, primarily driven by reduced exposures in the interest rate and credit spread category.
Distribution of VaR Statistics and Net Revenues
We evaluate the reasonableness of our VaR model by comparing the potential declines in portfolio values generated by the model with corresponding actual trading results for the Firm, as well as individual business units. For days where losses exceed the VaR statistic, we examine the drivers of trading losses to evaluate the VaR model’s accuracy. There were no trading loss days in the current quarter.

The Wealth Management business segment reflects a substantial portion of our non-trading interest rate risk. Net interest income in the Wealth Management business segment primarily consists of interest income earned on non-trading assets held, including loans and investment securities, as well as margin and other lending on non-bank entities and interest expense incurred on non-trading liabilities, primarily deposits.
The previous table presents an analysis of selected instantaneous upward and downward parallel interest rate shocks (subject to a floor of zero percent in the downward scenario) on net interest income over the next 12 months for our Wealth Management business segment. These shocks are applied to our 12-month forecast for our Wealth Management business segment, which incorporates market expectations of interest rates and our forecasted balance sheet and business activity. The forecast includes modeled prepayment behavior, reinvestment of net cash flows from maturing assets and liabilities, and deposit pricing sensitivity to interest rates. These key assumptions are updated periodically based on historical data and future expectations.
We do not manage to any single rate scenario but rather manage net interest income in our Wealth Management business segment across a range of possible outcomes, including non-parallel rate change scenarios. The sensitivity analysis assumes that we take no action in response to these scenarios, assumes there are no changes in other macroeconomic variables normally correlated with changes in interest rates and includes subjective assumptions regarding customer and market re-pricing behavior and other factors.
Our Wealth Management business segment balance sheet is asset sensitive, given assets reprice faster than liabilities, resulting in higher net interest income in higher interest rate scenarios and lower net interest income in lower interest rate scenarios. The level of interest rates may impact the amount of deposits held at the Firm, given competition for deposits from other institutions and alternative cash-equivalent

We have exposure to public and private companies through direct investments, as well as through funds that invest in these assets. These investments are predominantly equity positions with long investment horizons, a portion of which is for business facilitation purposes. The market risk related to these investments is measured by estimating the potential reduction in net revenues associated with a reasonably possible 10% decline in investment values and related impact on performance-based income, as applicable. The measures reflected in the table above do not reflect the effect of any economic hedges or diversification that may reduce the risk of loss.
Asset Management Revenue Sensitivity
Certain asset management revenues in the Wealth Management and Investment Management business segments are derived from management fees, which are based on fee-based client assets in Wealth Management or AUM in Investment Management (together, “client holdings”). The assets underlying client holdings are primarily composed of equity, fixed income and alternative investments and are sensitive to changes in related markets. These revenues depend on multiple factors including, but not limited to, the level and duration of a market increase or decline, price volatility, the geographic and industry mix of client assets, and client behavior such as the rate and magnitude of client investments and redemptions. Therefore, overall revenues may not correlate completely with changes in the related markets.
Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of loss arising when a borrower, counterparty or issuer does not meet its financial obligations to us. We are primarily exposed to credit risk from institutions and individuals through our Institutional Securities and Wealth Management business segments. For a further discussion of our credit risks, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Credit Risk” in the 2025 Form 10-K.

1.FVO includes the fair value of certain unfunded lending commitments.
2.Investment Management business segment loans are related to certain of our activities as an investment adviser and manager. Loans held at fair value are the result of the consolidation of investment vehicles (including CLOs) managed by Investment Management, composed primarily of senior secured loans to corporations.
3.Lending commitments represent the notional amount of legally binding obligations to provide funding to clients for lending transactions. Since commitments associated with these business activities may expire unused or may not be utilized to full capacity, they do not necessarily reflect the actual future cash funding requirements.

We provide loans and lending commitments to a variety of customers, including large corporate and institutional clients, as well as high to ultra-high net worth individuals. In addition, we purchase loans in the secondary market. Loans and lending commitments are either held for investment, held for sale or carried at fair value. For more information on these loan classifications, see Note 2 to the financial statements in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Total loans and lending commitments increased by approximately $44 billion since December 31, 2025, primarily due to growth in corporate relationship lending and secured lending facilities within the Institutional Securities business segment and an increase in securities-based loans within the Wealth Management business segment.
See Notes 4, 5, 9 and 13 to the financial statements for further information.

Credit exposure arising from our loans and lending commitments is measured in accordance with our internal risk management standards. Risk factors considered in determining the allowance for credit losses for loans and lending commitments include the borrower’s financial condition, industry, facility structure, LTV ratio, debt service ratio, collateral and covenants. Qualitative and environmental factors such as economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the portfolio and lending terms, and volume and severity of past due loans may also be considered.
The allowance for credit losses for loans and lending commitments increased since December 31, 2025, primarily related to certain specific commercial real estate and corporate loans and portfolio growth in corporate loans and secured lending facilities. Charge-offs in the current year period were primarily related to corporate and commercial real estate loans.
The base scenario used in our ACL models as of June 30, 2026 was generated using a combination of consensus economic forecasts, forward rates, and internally developed and validated models. Our ACL models incorporate key macroeconomic variables, including U.S. real GDP growth rate with the base scenario for the current quarter incorporating expectations of continued economic growth consistent with our prior quarter forecast. Other key macroeconomic variables used in our ACL models include corporate credit spreads, interest rates and commercial real estate indices. The significance of these key macroeconomic variables on our ACL models varies depending on portfolio composition and economic conditions. We also considered macroeconomic uncertainty in determining the aggregate allowance for credit losses for the current quarter. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the 2025 Form 10-K.

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our lending against commercial real estate (“CRE”) properties within the Institutional Securities business segment totaled $10.6 billion and $9.3 billion, respectively. This represents 3.3% and 3.1%, respectively, of total exposure reflected in the Institutional Securities Loans and Lending Commitments table above. Those CRE loans are originated for experienced sponsors and are generally secured by specific institutional CRE properties. In many cases, loans are subsequently syndicated or securitized on a full or partial basis, reducing our ongoing exposure.
In addition to the amounts included in the table above, we provide certain secured lending facilities which are typically collateralized by pooled CRE mortgage loans and are
included in Secured lending facilities in the Institutional Securities Loans and Lending Commitments Held for Investment table above. These secured lending facilities benefit from structural protections including cross-collateralization and diversification across property types.
While we continue to actively monitor all our loan portfolios, the commercial real estate sector remains under heightened focus given its sensitivity to economic and secular factors.

Such loans are originated through our private banking platform, are both secured and generally benefiting from full or partial guarantees from high or ultra-high net worth clients, which partially reduce associated credit risk. At both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, greater than 95% of the CRE loans balance in the Wealth Management business segment received guarantees. All of our lending against CRE

The Institutional Securities and Wealth Management business segments provide margin lending arrangements that allow customers to borrow against the value of qualifying securities, primarily for the purpose of purchasing additional securities, as well as to collateralize short positions. Institutional Securities primarily includes margin loans in the Equity Financing business. Wealth Management includes margin loans as well as non-purpose securities-based lending on non-bank entities. Amounts may fluctuate from period to period as overall client balances change as a result of market levels, client positioning and leverage.
Credit exposures arising from margin lending activities are generally mitigated by their short-term nature, the value of collateral held and our right to call for additional margin when collateral values decline. However, we could incur losses in the event that the customer fails to meet margin calls and collateral values decline below the loan amount. This risk is elevated in loans backed by collateral pools with significant concentrations in individual issuers or securities with similar

1.Counterparty credit ratings are determined internally by the CRM.
We are exposed to credit risk as a dealer in OTC derivatives. Credit risk with respect to derivative instruments arises from the possibility that a counterparty may fail to perform
according to the terms of the contract. For more information on derivatives, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Credit Risk—Derivatives” in the 2025 Form 10-K and Note 6 to the financial statements.
Country Risk
Country risk exposure is the risk that events in, or that affect, a foreign country (any country other than the U.S.) might adversely affect us. We actively manage country risk exposure through a comprehensive risk management framework that combines credit and other market fundamentals and allows us to effectively identify, monitor and limit country risk. For a further discussion of our country risk exposure see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Country and Other Risks” in the 2025 Form 10-K.

Risk Disclosures
1.Net inventory represents exposure to both long and short single-name and index positions (i.e., bonds and equities at fair value and CDS based on a notional amount assuming zero recovery adjusted for the fair value of any receivable or payable).
2.Net counterparty exposure (e.g., repurchase transactions, securities lending and OTC derivatives) is net of the benefit of collateral received and also is net by counterparty when legally enforceable master netting agreements are in place.
3.Amounts represent net CDS hedges (purchased and sold) on net counterparty exposure and lending executed by trading desks responsible for hedging counterparty and lending credit risk exposures. Amounts are based on the CDS notional amount assuming zero recovery adjusted for the fair value of any receivable or payable. For further description of the contractual terms for purchased credit protection and whether they may limit the effectiveness of our hedges, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Credit Risk—Derivatives” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Operational Risk
Operational risk refers to the risk of loss, or of damage to our reputation, resulting from inadequate or failed processes or systems, human factors (e.g., inappropriate or unlawful conduct) or external events (e.g., cyberattacks or third-party vulnerabilities) that may manifest as, for example, loss of information, business disruption, theft and fraud, legal and compliance risks, or damage to physical assets. We may experience operational risk events across the full scope of our business activities, including revenue-generating activities and support and control groups (e.g., IT and trade processing). For a further discussion about our operational risk, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Operational Risk” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Model Risk
Model risk is the potential for adverse consequences from decisions based on incorrect or misused model outputs. Model risk can lead to financial loss, poor business and strategic decision-making, noncompliance with applicable laws and/or regulations or damage to the Firm’s reputation. The risk inherent in a model is a function of the materiality, complexity and uncertainty around inputs and assumptions. Model risk is generated from the use of models impacting financial statements, regulatory filings, capital adequacy assessments and the formulation of strategy. For a further discussion about our model risk, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Model Risk” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that we will be unable to finance our operations due to a loss of access to the capital markets or difficulty in liquidating our assets. Liquidity risk also encompasses our ability (or perceived ability) to meet our financial obligations without experiencing significant business disruption or reputational damage that may threaten our viability as a going concern. For a further discussion about our liquidity risk, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Liquidity Risk” in the 2025 Form 10-K and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” herein.
Legal, Regulatory and Compliance Risk
Legal, regulatory and compliance risk includes the risk of legal or regulatory sanctions, material financial loss, including fines, penalties, judgments, damages and/or settlements, limitations on our business, or loss to reputation that we may suffer as a result of failure to comply with laws, regulations, rules, related self-regulatory organization standards and codes of conduct applicable to our business activities. This risk also includes contractual and commercial risk, such as the risk that a counterparty’s performance obligations will be unenforceable. It also includes compliance with AML, terrorist financing, and anti-corruption rules and regulations. For a further discussion about our legal and compliance risk, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Legal, Regulatory and Compliance Risk” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Climate Risk
Climate-related risk consists of physical and transition risks. Physical risks include harm to people and property arising from acute climate-related events, such as floods, hurricanes, heatwaves, droughts and wildfires, and chronic, longer-term shifts in climate patterns, such as higher global average temperatures, rising sea levels and long-term droughts. Transition risks include policy, legal, technology and market changes. Examples of these transition risks include changes in consumer and business sentiment, related technologies, shareholder preferences and any additional regulatory and legislative requirements, including increased disclosure requirements or taxation of carbon emissions. Climate risk, which is not expected to have a significant effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition in the near term, is an overarching risk that can impact other categories of risk. For a further discussion about our climate risk, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Risk—Climate Risk” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
