This excerpt taken from the C 10-Q filed May 11, 2009. EMEA
NM Not meaningful 1Q09 vs. 1Q08 Revenues increased to $5.7 billion largely driven by S&B. Revenues in Global Cards and Consumer Banking decreased by 16% and 28% respectively, driven by continued deterioration in the market environment and the negative impact of FX translation. In ICG, S&B had record revenues, based on significant contributions across all products, and in particular Rates & Currencies which benefited from high volatility and wide-spreads. The first quarter of 2008 included write-downs in subprime-related losses of $1.4 billion and $0.6 billion in commercial real estate and highly leveraged finance commitments. The current quarter included $0.6 billion of CVA on derivatives, which is now reported within the region. Transaction Services revenues decreased 3% largely due to a decline in customer liability balances, down 8%, and headwinds from FX translation and interest rates. Revenues in GWM declined by 26% due to lower capital markets and investment activity, FX translation impact and reduction in loan balances and customer deposits. Average loans declined 30% due to client pay-downs and active asset management, while client assets under fee-based management decreased 40% primarily due to lower market values and FX translation impact. Operating Expenses were down 37% from the first quarter of 2008 driven by lower headcount and continued benefits from re-engineering efforts, the favorable impact of FX translation, lower incentive compensation and repositioning charges. Provisions for credit losses and for benefits and claims increased by $771 million from the first quarter of 2008 due to ongoing deterioration in market conditions, predominantly in the UK, Spain and Greece, and losses associated with loan sales in ICG. 25 This excerpt taken from the C 8-K filed Apr 17, 2009. EMEA
Revenues declined 28%, as investment sales and assets under management declined 64% and 49%, respectively, mainly due to adverse market conditions. Average loans were down 21% due to tighter underwriting criteria, exiting certain markets, and the impact of foreign exchange. Average deposits were down 35%, reflecting a decline in balances in the UK as customers align deposits with government insurance programs and the impact of foreign exchange.
Credit costs nearly doubled as a result of higher net credit losses, up 57% or $91 million, and an incremental net loan loss reserve build of $100 million. Higher credit costs reflected continued credit deterioration, particularly in Spain, Greece, and the UK. The net credit loss ratio increased 256 basis points to 5.11%. Higher credit costs and lower revenues more than offset lower expenses, resulting in a net loss of $178 million.
