Recent developments
Regulatory and legal developments
Postponed implementation of NSFR and revision of LCR in Switzerland
In September 2017, the Swiss Federal Department of Finance informed banks that the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) requirements will not be finalized in 2017. Taking international developments into account, the Swiss Federal Council is expected to decide on next steps at the end of 2018.
We expect that proposed changes to liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) requirements will take effect on 1 January 2018, subject to approval by the Swiss Federal Council; however, the final version of the changes has not yet been published.
® Refer to the “Balance sheet, liquidity and funding management” section of this report for more information
FINMA proposes changes to AML Ordinance
In response to the findings from the evaluation conducted by the Financial Action Task Force, FINMA launched a consultation on revisions to its Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Ordinance. The proposed changes include the requirement to regularly update client information and to verify information on beneficial ownership for all clients, including low-risk clients. The consultation period ended in October 2017 and the amended ordinance is expected to enter into force in 2019.
Implementation of AEI in Switzerland
In September 2017, the National Council, the Swiss Parliament’s lower house, approved the introduction of automatic exchange of information (AEI) with an additional 39 jurisdictions, extending the standard to include most of the G20 and OECD member countries. Subject to approval by the Council of States, the first exchange of financial data with these countries is expected in 2019 based on 2018 data. Furthermore, the Swiss Parliament has introduced a mandatory review before the first actual transmission of financial data to ensure that partner jurisdictions comply with the conditions of data exchange. In addition, the Swiss government plans to introduce AEI with Singapore and Hong Kong according to the aforementioned timeline, for which parliamentary committees have already given the necessary pre-approval. In connection with AEI, as well as with other changes in tax regimes or their enforcement, we have experienced outflows of cross-border client assets.
Swiss Federal Council introduces new fintech regulation and FINMA consults on proposed implementation
In August 2017, amendments to the
Swiss Banking Ordinance became effective. Firms without a banking license are
allowed to hold up to an aggregate amount of CHF 1 million in deposits
from clients, and an exemption for funds held in settlement accounts is
extended to a maximum of 60 days from previously 7 days. These changes are intended
to reduce barriers to entry for fintech firms and enhance the competitiveness
of the Swiss financial center. FINMA has proposed amendments to its Circular
2008/3 “Public deposits with non-banks” to adapt its supervisory practice to
these changes. In addition, the Swiss Parliament is considering amendments to
the Banking Act that would create a new banking license category with
simplified requirements for companies accepting up to CHF 100 million in deposits
from clients.
Commencement of negotiations on the UK’s withdrawal from the EU
Formal negotiations with respect to the UK’s withdrawal from the EU have commenced. The negotiations are expected to address the terms of the withdrawal as well as the EU-UK relationship going forward, including possible transitional arrangements. The UK is still expected to leave the EU in March 2019, subject to a possible transition period. We intend to begin implementation of contingency measures in early 2018.
US Department of Labor proposes further delay on Fiduciary Rule
Since 9 June 2017, UBS has been operating under the US Department of Labor (DOL) Fiduciary Rule. The rule expands the circumstances that cause a person to become a fiduciary subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) in relation to corporate and individual retirement plans. Under ERISA, UBS is required to adhere to strict standards of prudence and loyalty when dealing with affected retirement accounts and is prohibited from entering into transactions where there is a conflict of interest unless an exemption applies. Exemptions applicable to our Wealth Management Americas business under the Fiduciary Rule require compliance with impartial conduct principles. Moreover, the exemptions require compliance with significant additional technical conditions. The DOL has deferred the compliance date for these technical conditions for a transition period that is currently scheduled to end on 1 January 2018. In August 2017, the DOL proposed to extend the transition period and delay the applicability of these technical conditions to 1 July 2019 while it continues to consider potential changes to the exemptions. We would be required to make significant investments in order to comply with these technical conditions.

Regulators and central banks support alternative reference rates
Efforts to transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) benchmarks to alternative benchmark rates are under way in several jurisdictions.
The UK Financial Conduct Authority announced in July 2017 that it will not intervene beyond 2021 to sustain LIBOR and urged users to plan the transition to alternative reference rates. In April 2017, the Working Group on Sterling Risk-Free Reference Rates selected the Sterling Overnight Index Average as the recommended British pound risk-free rate.
In the US, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee has recommended a broad Treasuries repo financing rate as the new US dollar secured risk-free rate, which is expected to be available in 2018. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York has launched a consultation on the construction of this and two other Treasury repurchase agreement-derived rates.
The European Central Bank (ECB) has also recently announced its decision to develop, before 2020, a euro unsecured overnight interest rate based on transaction data already reported to the ECB by banks.
We have significant contractual rights and obligations referenced to LIBOR and other benchmark rates. Discontinuance of, or changes to, benchmark rates as a result of these proposals or other initiatives or investigations, as well as uncertainty about the timing and manner of implementation of such changes or discontinuance, may require adjustments to agreements that are referenced to current benchmarked rates by us, our clients and other market participants.
Implementation of margin requirements for non-cleared OTC derivatives
The G20 commitments on derivatives call for adoption of mandatory exchange of initial and variation margin for non-cleared over-the-counter (OTC) derivative transactions (margin rules). Margin rules for the largest counterparties (phase 1 counterparties) have been in effect in major jurisdictions since early 2017. In September 2017, initial and variation margin requirements for the next group of counterparties (phase 2 counterparties), including significant numbers of end users, came into force in Canada, the US, the EU, Switzerland, Japan and other major jurisdictions in Asia. Additional requirements will continue to be implemented through 2020 in subsequent phases. Implementation of non-cleared margin requirements will likely continue to require significant operational effort by us and our clients.

Group performance
Results: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Profit before tax increased by CHF 344 million or 39% to CHF 1,221 million, driven by a reduction in operating expenses and higher operating income. Operating income increased by CHF 116 million or 2%, mainly reflecting CHF 188 million higher net fee and commission income, partly offset by a CHF 42 million decrease in other income and CHF 41 million lower combined net interest and trading income. Operating expenses decreased by CHF 228 million or 4%, primarily driven by CHF 179 million lower general and administrative expenses and a CHF 49 million decrease in personnel expenses.
In addition to reporting our results in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), we report
adjusted results that exclude items that management believes are not
representative of the underlying performance of our businesses. Such adjusted
results are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by US Securities and
Exchange Commission
(SEC) regulations. For the purpose of determining adjusted results for the
third quarter of 2017, we excluded net restructuring expenses of CHF 285
million. For the third quarter of 2016, we excluded gains of CHF 21 million
related to investments in associates and net restructuring expenses of CHF 444
million.
On this adjusted basis, profit before tax for the third quarter of 2017 increased by CHF 206 million or 16% to CHF 1,506 million, driven by CHF 137 million higher operating income and CHF 69 million lower operating expenses.
Operating income: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Total operating income was CHF 7,145 million compared with CHF 7,029 million. On an adjusted basis, total operating income increased by CHF 137 million or 2%, mainly reflecting CHF 188 million higher net fee and commission income, partly offset by a CHF 41 million decrease in combined net interest and trading income.

Net interest and trading income
Total combined net interest and trading income decreased by CHF 41 million to CHF 2,832 million, mainly due to lower net interest and trading income in Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management (Group ALM) and in the Investment Bank, partly offset by higher net interest income in our wealth management businesses, and an increase in net trading income in Wealth Management.
In Wealth Management, net interest income increased by CHF 16 million to CHF 598 million, primarily due to higher deposit revenues, mostly reflecting higher short-term US dollar interest rates, as well as an increase in lending revenues. This was partly offset by lower treasury-related income from Corporate Center – Group ALM, reflecting higher allocated funding costs for long-term debt that contributes to total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) and lower banking book interest income. Net trading income increased by CHF 30 million to CHF 170 million, mainly due to increased client activity, most notably in Asia Pacific.
In Wealth Management Americas, net interest income increased by CHF 56 million to CHF 417 million, primarily due to an increase in net interest margin on higher short-term US dollar interest rates, as well as higher lending balances. This was partly offset by a CHF 19 million decrease in net trading income, primarily due to lower client activity.
In Personal & Corporate Banking, net interest income decreased by CHF 19 million to CHF 522 million, mainly as a result of lower treasury-related income from Corporate Center – Group ALM, reflecting higher allocated funding costs for long-term debt that contributes to TLAC and lower banking book interest income. This was partly offset by higher deposit revenues. Net trading income increased by CHF 15 million, primarily reflecting higher revenues from foreign exchange transactions.
In the Investment Bank, net interest and trading income declined by CHF 43 million, largely due to a CHF 175 million decrease in Foreign Exchange, Rates and Credit, mainly reflecting reduced client activity and low market volatility levels across most products. This was partly offset by an increase of CHF 105 million in Corporate Client Solutions, primarily reflecting higher revenues in Equity Capital Markets and Risk Management.
In Corporate Center, net interest and trading income decreased by CHF 89 million, mainly in Corporate Center – Group ALM, primarily reflecting lower income from accounting asymmetries related to economic hedges.

Net fee and commission income
Net fee and commission income was CHF 4,244 million compared with CHF 4,056 million.
Portfolio management and advisory fees increased by CHF 124 million to CHF 2,155 million, primarily in Wealth Management Americas, mainly due to increased invested assets in managed accounts.
Underwriting fees increased by CHF 91 million to CHF 304 million, mainly driven by higher equity underwriting fees in the Investment Bank, reflecting higher revenues from private transactions and public offerings.
Net brokerage fees decreased by CHF 30 million to CHF 641 million, reflecting a decrease in the Investment Bank and in Wealth Management Americas, primarily due to lower client activity.

Operating expenses: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Total operating expenses decreased by CHF 228 million or 4% to CHF 5,924 million. Excluding net restructuring expenses of CHF 285 million compared with CHF 444 million, adjusted total operating expenses decreased by CHF 69 million or 1% to CHF 5,639 million.
® Refer to “Note 16 Changes in organization” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of this report for more information on restructuring expenses
Personnel expenses
Personnel expenses decreased by CHF 49 million to CHF 3,893 million on a reported basis, mainly as a reduction of CHF 128 million in expenses for salaries and variable compensation was partly offset by a CHF 63 million increase in financial advisor compensation in Wealth Management Americas, primarily reflecting higher compensable revenues and changes we announced in 2016 to our financial advisor compensation model, as well as CHF 12 million higher expenses for pension and other post-employment benefit plans. On an adjusted basis, personnel expenses increased by CHF 68 million to CHF 3,753 million, mainly due to the aforementioned increase in financial advisor compensation.
® Refer to “Note 5 Personnel expenses” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of this report for more information
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by CHF 179 million to CHF 1,760 million on a reported basis and by CHF 135 million to CHF 1,617 million on an adjusted basis. The decrease in adjusted expenses was mainly driven by CHF 222 million lower net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters, partly offset by a CHF 31 million increase in expenses for rental and maintenance of IT and other equipment as well as CHF 28 million higher professional fees.
We believe that the industry continues to operate in an environment in which expenses associated with litigation, regulatory and similar matters will remain elevated for the foreseeable future and we continue to be exposed to a number of significant claims and regulatory matters. The outcome of many of these matters, the timing of a resolution and the potential effects of resolutions on our future business, financial results or financial condition are extremely difficult to predict.
® Refer to “Note 6 General and administrative expenses” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of this report for more information
® Refer to “Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of this report and to “Material legal and regulatory risks arise in the conduct of our business” in the “Risk factors” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information on litigation, regulatory and similar matters
Depreciation, impairment and amortization
Depreciation and impairment of property, equipment and software was CHF 256 million compared with CHF 248 million, mainly reflecting higher depreciation expenses related to internally generated capitalized software.
Tax: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
We recognized a net income tax expense of CHF 272 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with a net income tax expense of CHF 49 million for the third quarter of 2016.
The third quarter 2017 net income tax expense included tax expenses of CHF 446 million in respect of current-year taxable profits. This included current tax expenses of CHF 230 million and deferred tax expenses of CHF 216 million, the latter mainly representing amortization of prior-year Swiss tax loss and temporary difference deferred tax assets (DTAs). The third quarter 2017 net income tax expense also included a net upward revaluation of DTAs of CHF 174 million. This net benefit reflected an increase in US DTAs of CHF 224 million, partly offset by a net write-down of Swiss DTAs of CHF 50 million. The increase in US DTAs was primarily driven by higher profit forecasts for Wealth Management Americas. The write-down of Swiss DTAs primarily reflected a reduction in the effective tax rate at which the Swiss DTAs are measured, resulting from a change in the mix of forecast profits principally between operating income and dividends.
In the fourth quarter of 2017, we expect to recognize a further net upward revaluation of DTAs, representing approximately 25% of the full-year revaluation, as adjusted for any further revaluations that may be required following the finalization of the business plans in the quarter.
For 2018, we currently forecast a full-year tax rate in the range of 20%−25%, excluding any effect on the tax rate from the reassessment of DTAs or any statutory tax rate changes. Any reduction in the US federal tax rate, depending on the extent of the reduction, could significantly impact the effective tax rate in the period in which it is enacted. Such a rate reduction would reduce the expected tax savings from tax loss carry-forwards and deductible temporary differences in the US and would therefore result in a write-down of the associated DTAs. Based on our current approach for DTA measurement, we expect a CHF 0.2 billion decrease in the Group’s DTAs, including the Swiss DTA effects of a US tax rate reduction, for every percentage point reduction in the US federal corporate income tax rate.

Group performance
Total comprehensive income attributable to shareholders: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Total comprehensive income attributable to shareholders was CHF 1,543 million compared with CHF 184 million. Net profit attributable to shareholders was CHF 946 million compared with CHF 827 million, while other comprehensive income (OCI) attributable to shareholders was positive CHF 596 million compared with negative CHF 643 million.
In the third quarter of 2017, foreign currency translation OCI was positive CHF 603 million, primarily resulting from the strengthening of the US dollar and the euro against the Swiss franc, as well as the recognition of a CHF 226 million tax benefit. OCI related to foreign currency translation was negative CHF 61 million in the same quarter last year.
OCI associated with financial assets classified as available for sale was positive CHF 24 million compared with negative CHF 21 million and mainly reflected net unrealized gains in debt and equity instruments.
OCI related to own credit on financial liabilities designated at fair value was negative CHF 36 million compared with negative CHF 25 million and mainly reflected tightening credit spreads.
OCI related to cash flow hedges was negative CHF 118 million, mainly reflecting a decrease in unrealized gains on hedging derivatives resulting from increases in the respective long-term interest rates. In the third quarter of 2016, OCI related to cash flow hedges was negative CHF 326 million.
Defined benefit plan OCI was positive CHF 123 million compared with negative CHF 209 million. We recorded net pre-tax OCI gains of CHF 144 million related to our non-Swiss pension plans, primarily in the UK, reflecting OCI gains related to a decrease in the defined benefit obligation, primarily driven by an increase in the applicable discount rate, and due to an increase in the fair value of the underlying plan assets. Net pre-tax OCI related to the Swiss pension plan was negative CHF 15 million.
® Refer to the “Statement of comprehensive income” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of this report for more information
® Refer to “Note 26 Pension and other post-employment benefit plans” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information on other comprehensive income related to defined benefit plans
Sensitivity to interest rate movements
As of 30 September 2017, we estimate that a parallel shift in yield curves by +100 basis points could lead to a combined increase in annual net interest income of approximately CHF 0.6 billion in Wealth Management, Wealth Management Americas and Personal & Corporate Banking. Of this increase, approximately CHF 0.3 billion would result from changes in US dollar interest rates.
The immediate effect on shareholders’ equity of such a shift in yield curves would be a decrease of approximately CHF 1.6 billion recognized in OCI, of which approximately CHF 1.4 billion would result from changes in US dollar interest rates. Since the majority of this effect on shareholders’ equity is related to cash flow hedge OCI, which is not recognized for the purposes of calculating regulatory capital, the immediate effect on regulatory capital would be an increase of approximately CHF 0.2 billion, primarily related to the estimated effect on pension fund assets and liabilities.
The aforementioned estimates are based on an immediate increase in interest rates, equal across all currencies and relative to implied forward rates applied to our banking book and financial assets available for sale. These estimates further assume no change to balance sheet size and structure, constant foreign exchange rates and no specific management action.
Net profit attributable to
non-controlling interests:
3Q17 vs 3Q16
Net profit attributable to non-controlling interests was CHF 2 million compared with CHF 1 million. We currently expect to attribute approximately CHF 25 million to non-controlling interests in the fourth quarter of 2017. From 2018, we expect net profit attributable to non-controlling interests to be less than CHF 10 million per year.
Key figures and personnel

Personnel: 3Q17 vs 2Q17
We employed 60,796 personnel as of 30 September 2017, a net increase of 1,326 compared with 30 June 2017. Corporate Center – Services personnel increased by 1,060, primarily due to the insourcing of certain activities from third-party vendors to our Business Solution Centers and higher staffing levels for strategic and regulatory initiatives. Wealth Management personnel increased by 101, primarily due to acquisitions. In addition, Investment Bank personnel and Personal & Corporate Banking personnel increased by 81 and 45, respectively.
Results: 9M17 vs 9M16
Profit before tax increased by CHF 1,068 million or 32% to CHF 4,412 million. Operating income increased by CHF 680 million or 3%, mainly reflecting CHF 656 million higher net fee and commission income and a CHF 187 million increase in combined net interest and trading income, partly offset by a CHF 138 million decrease in other income. Operating expenses decreased by CHF 388 million or 2%, due to CHF 515 million lower general and administrative expenses, partly offset by a CHF 115 million increase in personnel expenses.
On an adjusted basis, profit before tax increased by CHF 776 million or 18%, driven by higher operating income.
Adjusted operating income increased by
CHF 687 million or 3%, mainly reflecting CHF 656 million higher
net fee and
commission income, primarily due to a CHF 335 million increase in
portfolio management and advisory fees, mainly in Wealth Management
Americas, and CHF 304 million higher underwriting fees, largely in the
Investment Bank. Furthermore, combined net interest and trading income
increased by CHF 187 million, primarily due to CHF 185 million higher net
interest income in Wealth Management Americas and a CHF 78 million increase in
net trading income in Wealth Management, partly offset by CHF 97 million lower
net interest income in Personal & Corporate Banking. Adjusted other income decreased
by CHF 131 million, mainly
due to lower gains on sales of financial assets available for sale.
Adjusted operating expenses decreased by CHF 89 million or 1%, primarily due to a CHF 414 million decrease in adjusted general and administrative expenses, mainly reflecting CHF 291 million lower net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters, a CHF 71 million UK bank levy credit related to prior years that was recognized in the first nine months of 2017 and a CHF 57 million decrease in expenses for marketing and public relations. This was partly offset by a CHF 319 million increase in adjusted personnel expenses, primarily due to a CHF 223 million increase in financial advisor compensation in Wealth Management Americas and higher expenses for variable compensation.

Disposals in 4Q17
In the third quarter of 2017, Hana Financial Group, our partner in South Korea, exercised a 10-year buyout option to acquire UBS Asset Management’s 51% stake in UBS Hana Asset Management. This transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017, subject to regulatory and other approvals. In the fourth quarter of 2017, we currently expect to recognize a pre-tax gain on sale of approximately CHF 40 million in Asset Management and a foreign currency translation loss of around CHF 85 million in Corporate Center – Group ALM. Consistent with past practice, these amounts will be treated as adjusting items. The release of foreign currency translation losses from equity to profit and loss does not affect total shareholders’ equity or regulatory capital.
On 1 October 2017, UBS completed the sale of Asset Management’s fund administration servicing units in Luxembourg and Switzerland to Northern Trust, resulting in a pre-tax gain on sale of approximately CHF 140 million. This gain will be recognized in the income statement within Asset Management in the fourth quarter of 2017 and will be treated as an adjusting item for the purpose of calculating adjusted results.
Outlook
We expect the global economic recovery to strengthen further, but geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty still pose risks to client sentiment. In particular, high asset prices, uncertainty over central bank balance sheet and interest rate policies, seasonality factors and the persistence of low volatility may continue to affect overall client activity. Low and negative interest rates, particularly in Switzerland and the eurozone, put pressure on net interest margins, which may be partly offset by the effect of a further normalization of US monetary policy. Implementing Switzerland’s new bank capital standards and further changes to national and international regulatory frameworks for banks will result in increased capital requirements, funding and operating costs. UBS is well positioned to mitigate these challenges and benefit from further improvements in market conditions.

1 Comparative figures in this table may differ from those originally published in quarterly and annual reports due to adjustments following organizational changes, restatements due to the retrospective adoption of new accounting standards or changes in accounting policies, and events after the reporting period. 2 Recurring net fee income consists of fees for services provided on an ongoing basis such as portfolio management fees, asset-based investment fund fees, custody fees and account-keeping fees, which are generated on client assets. 3 Transaction-based income consists of the non-recurring portion of net fee and commission income, mainly consisting of brokerage and transaction-based investment fund fees as well as credit card fees and fees for payment transactions, together with net trading income. 4 Adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC regulations. 5 Reflects a gain on the sale of our investment in Visa Europe. 6 Refer to the “Measurement of performance” section of our Annual Report 2016 for the definitions of our key performance indicators. 7 Recurring income consists of net interest income and recurring net fee income. 8 Refer to the “Capital management” section of this report for more information. 9 Represents risk-weighted assets and leverage ratio denominator held by Corporate Center – Group ALM that are directly associated with activity managed centrally on behalf of the business divisions and other Corporate Center units. For the purpose of attributing equity under the revised framework effective as of 1 January 2017, these resources are allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units, primarily based on the level of high-quality liquid assets needed to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement of 110%. Refer to “Equity attribution framework” in the “Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information. |

Wealth Management
Results: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Profit before tax increased by CHF 83 million or 16% to CHF 587 million and adjusted profit before tax increased by CHF 58 million or 9% to CHF 701 million, reflecting higher operating income.
Operating income
Total operating income increased by CHF 106 million or 6% to CHF 1,915 million, driven by increases across all income lines.
Net interest income increased by CHF 16 million to CHF 598 million, primarily due to higher deposit revenues, mostly reflecting higher short-term US dollar interest rates, as well as an increase in lending revenues. This was partly offset by lower treasury-related income from Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management (Group ALM), reflecting higher allocated funding costs for long-term debt that contributes to total loss-absorbing capacity and lower banking book interest income.
® Refer to the “Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management” section of this report for more information
Recurring net fee income increased by CHF 35 million to CHF 926 million, driven by higher average invested assets and increases in discretionary and advisory mandate penetration. These factors were partly offset by the effects of cross-border outflows.
Transaction-based income increased by CHF 39 million to CHF 373 million, across all regions and most products, mainly due to increased client activity, most notably in Asia Pacific.
Other income increased by CHF 12 million to CHF 18 million, largely resulting from the sale of our domestic business in the Netherlands.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses increased by CHF 23 million or 2% to CHF 1,328 million and adjusted operating expenses increased by CHF 48 million or 4% to CHF 1,214 million. Personnel expenses decreased by CHF 7 million to CHF 593 million, while adjusted personnel expenses increased by CHF 9 million to CHF 581 million. General and administrative expenses increased by CHF 39 million to CHF 163 million and increased by CHF 27 million to CHF 141 million on an adjusted basis, predominantly driven by higher net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters. Net expenses for services from Corporate Center and other business divisions decreased by CHF 8 million to CHF 571 million, while adjusted net expenses increased by CHF 13 million to CHF 491 million, mainly due to higher costs related to strategic and regulatory initiatives.
Net new money: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Net new money was CHF 4.6 billion compared with CHF 9.4 billion, resulting in an annualized net new money growth rate of 1.8% compared with 4.0%. Cross-border-related net outflows were CHF 2.5 billion and Europe, emerging markets and Switzerland experienced combined outflows of CHF 2.5 billion following the introduction of fees for large euro-denominated deposits. Net new money from ultra high net worth clients was CHF 4.8 billion compared with CHF 6.6 billion.
Invested assets: 3Q17 vs 2Q17
Invested assets increased by CHF 61 billion to CHF 1,100 billion, mainly due to positive market performance of CHF 33 billion, positive foreign currency translation effects of CHF 18 billion, an increase of CHF 5 billion driven by acquisitions of subsidiaries and businesses and net new money of CHF 5 billion. Discretionary and advisory mandate penetration increased to 29.2% from 28.5%.
Results: 9M17 vs 9M16
Profit before tax increased by CHF 228 million or 14% to CHF 1,808 million and adjusted profit before tax increased by CHF 234 million or 12% to CHF 2,120 million, mainly reflecting higher operating income.
Total operating income increased by CHF 216 million or 4% to CHF 5,726 million. The second quarter of 2016 included a loss on the sale of a subsidiary and a gain on the sale of our investment in Visa Europe. Excluding these items, adjusted operating income increased by CHF 214 million or 4%, reflecting higher transaction-based income.
Net interest income decreased by CHF 19 million to CHF 1,725 million, primarily due to lower treasury-related income from Corporate Center – Group ALM, partly offset by higher deposit revenues, mainly reflecting higher short-term US dollar interest rates.
® Refer to the “Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management” section of this report for more information
Recurring net fee income increased by CHF 26 million to CHF 2,701 million, driven by higher average invested assets and increases in discretionary and advisory mandate penetration. These factors were partly offset by the effects of cross-border outflows, shifts into retrocession-free products and our exit from the Australian domestic business.
Transaction-based income increased by CHF 185 million to CHF 1,268 million, across most products, mainly due to increased client activity, most notably in Asia Pacific.
Other income increased by CHF 18 million to CHF 31 million, largely resulting from the sale of our domestic business in the Netherlands.
22
Total operating expenses decreased by CHF 12 million to CHF 3,918 million and adjusted operating expenses decreased by CHF 20 million to CHF 3,606 million. Personnel expenses decreased by CHF 20 million to CHF 1,786 million and decreased by CHF 9 million to CHF 1,759 million on an adjusted basis, driven by a decrease in staff levels reflecting our cost reduction programs, partly offset by higher variable compensation expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by CHF 28 million to CHF 420 million and increased by CHF 9 million to CHF 371 million on an adjusted basis, mainly due to higher net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters. Net expenses for services from Corporate Center and other business divisions decreased by CHF 20 million to CHF 1,707 million and adjusted net expenses for services decreased by CHF 19 million to CHF 1,472 million. This decrease was driven by lower expenses from Group Technology and Group Communications and Branding, partly offset by higher costs related to strategic and regulatory initiatives.

1 Comparative figures in this table may differ from those originally published in quarterly and annual reports due to adjustments following organizational changes, restatements due to the retrospective adoption of new accounting standards or changes in accounting policies, and events after the reporting period. 2 Recurring net fee income consists of fees for services provided on an ongoing basis such as portfolio management fees, asset-based investment fund fees, custody fees and account-keeping fees, which are generated on client assets. 3 Transaction-based income consists of the non-recurring portion of net fee and commission income, mainly consisting of brokerage and transaction-based investment fund fees as well as credit card fees and fees for payment transactions, together with net trading income. 4 Financial advisor compensation consists of grid-based compensation based directly on compensable revenues generated by financial advisors and supplemental compensation calculated on the basis of financial advisor productivity, firm tenure, assets and other variables. 5 Compensation commitments with recruited financial advisors represent expenses related to compensation commitments granted to financial advisors at the time of recruitment that are subject to vesting requirements. 6 Adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC regulations. 7 Refer to the “Measurement of performance” section of our Annual Report 2016 for the definitions of our key performance indicators. 8 Recurring income consists of net interest income and recurring net fee income. 9 Refer to the “Capital management” section of this report for more information. 10 Represents risk-weighted assets and leverage ratio denominator held by Corporate Center – Group ALM that are directly associated with activity managed centrally on behalf of the business divisions and other Corporate Center units. For the purpose of attributing equity under the revised framework effective as of 1 January 2017, these resources are allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units, primarily based on the level of high-quality liquid assets needed to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement of 110%. Refer to “Equity attribution framework” in the “Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information. 11 Presented in line with historical reporting practice in the US market. |

Wealth Management Americas
Results: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Profit before tax decreased by USD 2 million or 1% to USD 326 million. Adjusted profit before tax decreased by USD 16 million or 4% to USD 351 million, driven by higher operating expenses, partly offset by higher operating income.
Operating income
Total operating income increased by USD 138 million or 7% to USD 2,126 million, mainly reflecting higher recurring net fee income and net interest income.
Net interest income increased by USD 62 million to USD 432 million, primarily due to an increase in net interest margin on higher short-term US dollar interest rates, as well as higher lending balances. The average mortgage portfolio balance increased 21% and the average securities-backed lending portfolio balance increased 2%.
Recurring net fee income increased by USD 100 million to USD 1,341 million, mainly due to increased invested assets in managed accounts.
Transaction-based income decreased by USD 24 million to USD 348 million due to lower client activity.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses increased by USD 140 million or 8% to USD 1,800 million and adjusted operating expenses increased by USD 154 million or 10% to USD 1,775 million.
Personnel expenses increased by USD 119 million to USD 1,324 million and increased by USD 120 million on an adjusted basis, mainly due to USD 89 million higher financial advisor compensation, reflecting higher compensable revenues as well as changes we announced in 2016 to our financial advisor compensation model, and to an increase in salaries and other personnel costs. These increases were partly offset by lower expenses for compensation commitments with recruited financial advisors.
General and administrative expenses increased by USD 13 million to USD 141 million, mainly due to higher expenses for travel and entertainment.
Net expenses for services from Corporate Center and other business divisions increased by USD 10 million to USD 323 million and increased by USD 23 million to USD 298 million on an adjusted basis, mainly reflecting higher costs related to Group Technology.
Net new money: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Net new money outflows were USD 2.3 billion in the third quarter of 2017, mainly reflecting net outflows related to financial advisor attrition, partly offset by inflows from financial advisors employed by UBS for more than one year. In the same quarter last year, net new money was USD 0.8 billion, predominantly related to inflows from financial advisors employed by UBS for more than one year, partly offset by outflows from net recruiting. The annualized net new money growth rate was negative 0.8% compared with positive 0.3%.
Invested assets: 3Q17 vs 2Q17
Invested assets increased by USD 32 billion to USD 1,201 billion, reflecting positive market performance of USD 34 billion, partly offset by net new money outflows of USD 2 billion. Discretionary and advisory mandate penetration increased to 36.3% from 35.8%.
Results: 9M17 vs 9M16
Profit before tax increased by USD 151 million or 19% to USD 933 million and adjusted profit before tax increased by USD 113 million or 13% to USD 1,006 million, driven by higher operating income, partly offset by higher operating expenses.
Total operating income increased by USD 501 million or 9% to USD 6,312 million. Net interest income increased by USD 193 million to USD 1,271 million, reflecting higher US short-term interest rates and higher lending balances. Recurring net fee income increased by USD 280 million to USD 3,893 million, mainly due to higher managed account fees on increased invested assets. Transaction-based income increased by USD 32 million to USD 1,134 million, reflecting higher client activity.
Total operating expenses increased by USD 350 million or 7% to USD 5,379 million and adjusted operating expenses increased by USD 388 million or 8% to USD 5,306 million. Personnel expenses increased by USD 286 million to USD 3,924 million and increased by USD 291 million on an adjusted basis, mainly due to USD 272 million higher financial advisor compensation, reflecting higher compensable revenues as well as changes to our financial advisor compensation model, and to an increase in salaries and other personnel costs, partly offset by lower expenses for compensation commitments with recruited financial advisors. General and administrative expenses increased by USD 58 million to USD 468 million, mainly due to USD 39 million higher net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters. Net expenses for services from Corporate Center and other business divisions increased by USD 13 million to USD 954 million and increased by USD 46 million to USD 882 million on an adjusted basis, mainly reflecting higher costs related to Group Technology.

1 Comparative figures in this table may differ from those originally published in quarterly and annual reports due to adjustments following organizational changes, restatements due to the retrospective adoption of new accounting standards or changes in accounting policies, and events after the reporting period. 2 Recurring net fee income consists of fees for services provided on an ongoing basis such as portfolio management fees, asset-based investment fund fees, custody fees and account-keeping fees, which are generated on client assets. 3 Transaction-based income consists of the non-recurring portion of net fee and commission income, mainly consisting of brokerage and transaction-based investment fund fees as well as credit card fees and fees for payment transactions, together with net trading income. 4 Financial advisor compensation consists of grid-based compensation based directly on compensable revenues generated by financial advisors and supplemental compensation calculated on the basis of financial advisor productivity, firm tenure, assets and other variables. 5 Compensation commitments with recruited financial advisors represent expenses related to compensation commitments granted to financial advisors at the time of recruitment that are subject to vesting requirements. 6 Adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC regulations. 7 Refer to the “Measurement of performance” section of our Annual Report 2016 for the definitions of our key performance indicators. 8 Recurring income consists of net interest income and recurring net fee income. 9 Refer to the “Capital management” section of this report for more information. 10 Represents risk-weighted assets and leverage ratio denominator held by Corporate Center − Group ALM that are directly associated with activity managed centrally on behalf of the business divisions and other Corporate Center units.

Refer to “Equity attribution framework” in the “Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information. 9 In the second quarter of 2017, Personal & Corporate Banking implemented changes in its organizational structure for asset servicing of large institutional clients. As a result, we have changed our presentation of client assets within Personal & Corporate Banking to include custody assets of certain corporate clients serviced by Personal & Corporate Banking. This resulted in an increase in client assets of CHF 168 billion as of 30 September 2016. The change in presentation had no impact on invested assets or net new money attributable to Personal & Corporate Banking, the Group or any of its other business divisions. 10 Refer to the “Risk management and control” section of this report for more information on impaired loan exposures. |

Results: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Profit before tax decreased by CHF 42 million or 9% to CHF 411 million and adjusted profit before tax decreased by CHF 37 million or 8% to CHF 436 million, mainly driven by higher operating expenses.
Operating income
Total operating income decreased by CHF 24 million or 2% to CHF 971 million. Excluding gains of CHF 21 million related to investments in associates in the third quarter of 2016, adjusted operating income was broadly stable, as lower net interest income was mostly offset by higher transaction-based income and recurring net fee income.
Net interest income decreased by CHF 19 million to CHF 522 million, mainly due to lower treasury-related income from Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management (Group ALM), reflecting higher allocated funding costs for long-term debt that contributes to total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) and lower banking book interest income. This was partly offset by higher deposit revenues.
® Refer to the “Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management” section of this report for more information
Recurring net fee income increased by CHF 5 million to CHF 149 million, mainly due to higher custody revenues.
Transaction-based income increased by CHF 11 million to CHF 285 million, mainly reflecting higher revenues from foreign exchange transactions.
Other income decreased by CHF 22 million to CHF 16 million, mainly due to the aforementioned gains of CHF 21 million related to investments in associates in the third quarter of 2016.
Net credit loss expense was CHF 2 million compared with CHF 0 million.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses increased by CHF 17 million or 3% to CHF 559 million and adjusted operating expenses increased by CHF 33 million or 7% to CHF 534 million, primarily as net expenses for services from Corporate Center and other business divisions increased by CHF 29 million on an adjusted basis, mainly reflecting higher expenses for services from Group Technology and for strategic and regulatory initiatives.
Net new business
volume growth for personal banking:
3Q17 vs 3Q16
The annualized net new business volume growth rate for our personal banking business was 3.7% compared with 3.5%. Net new client assets and, to a lesser extent, net new loans were positive.
Results: 9M17 vs 9M16
Profit before tax decreased by CHF 201 million or 15% to CHF 1,185 million and adjusted profit before tax decreased by CHF 106 million or 8% to CHF 1,252 million, mainly reflecting lower net interest income.
Total operating income decreased by CHF 179 million or 6% to CHF 2,864 million. Excluding a gain of CHF 102 million on the sale of our investment in Visa Europe in the second quarter of 2016 and the aforementioned gains related to investments in associates in the third quarter of 2016, adjusted operating income decreased by CHF 56 million or 2%. Net interest income decreased by CHF 97 million to CHF 1,561 million, driven by lower treasury-related income from Corporate Center – Group ALM, reflecting higher allocated funding costs for long-term debt that contributes to TLAC and lower banking book interest income.
® Refer to the “Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management” section of this report for more information
Recurring net fee income increased by CHF 16 million to CHF 439 million, mainly reflecting higher custody revenues. Transaction-based income increased by CHF 47 million to CHF 819 million, mainly due to higher revenues from foreign exchange transactions and credit card fees. Excluding the aforementioned gains on our investments in Visa Europe and associates, adjusted other income was broadly stable at CHF 68 million. Net credit loss expense was CHF 23 million compared with a net recovery of CHF 2 million in the prior year. The net expense in the first nine months of 2017 was mainly related to allowances for newly impaired positions across a range of sectors. In the prior year, net recoveries related to previously impaired positions were almost entirely offset by expenses for allowances for newly impaired positions.
Total operating expenses increased by CHF 21 million or 1% to CHF 1,678 million and adjusted operating expenses increased by CHF 49 million or 3% to CHF 1,611 million. This was mainly driven by CHF 26 million higher adjusted net expenses for services from Corporate Center and other business divisions, primarily reflecting higher expenses for strategic and regulatory initiatives. General and administrative expenses increased by CHF 18 million to CHF 203 million, mainly reflecting higher IT project-related costs.

1 Comparative figures in this table may differ from those originally published in quarterly and annual reports due to adjustments following organizational changes, restatements due to the retrospective adoption of new accounting standards or changes in accounting policies, and events after the reporting period. 2 Net management fees include transaction fees, fund administration revenues (including net interest and trading income from lending activities and foreign exchange hedging as part of the fund services offering), gains or losses from seed money and co-investments, funding costs, gains and losses on the sale of subsidiaries and businesses, and other items that are not performance fees. 3 Adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC regulations. 4 Refer to the “Measurement of performance” section of our Annual Report 2016 for the definitions of our key performance indicators. 5 Includes UBS and third-party fund assets, for which the fund services unit provides professional services, including fund setup, accounting and reporting for traditional investment funds and alternative funds. 6 Inflows of assets under administration from new and existing funds less outflows from existing funds or fund exits. 7 Refer to the “Capital management” section of this report for more information. 8 Represents risk-weighted assets and leverage ratio denominator held by Corporate Center – Group ALM that are directly associated with activity managed centrally on behalf of the business divisions and other Corporate Center units. For the purpose of attributing equity under the revised framework effective as of 1 January 2017, these resources are allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units, primarily based on the level of high-quality liquid assets needed to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement of 110%. Refer to “Equity attribution framework” in the “Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information. |

Asset Management
Results: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Profit before tax increased by CHF 23 million or 22% to CHF 127 million and adjusted profit before tax increased by CHF 15 million or 11% to CHF 153 million, mainly reflecting higher operating income.
Operating income
Total operating income increased by CHF 13 million or 3% to CHF 494 million. Net management fees increased by CHF 19 million to CHF 456 million, mainly due to higher average invested assets, partly offset by ongoing margin compression due to client shifts to passive investment allocation strategies and increased custody fees recognized as contra-revenues. Performance fees decreased by CHF 6 million to CHF 38 million relative to a strong third quarter in 2016, driven by our hedge fund businesses and Real Estate, partly offset by an increase in Equities.
As of 30 September 2017, approximately 85% of performance fee-eligible assets within our hedge fund businesses exceeded high-water marks compared with 38%, reflecting solid performance in our multi- and single-manager hedge funds.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses decreased by CHF 11 million or 3% to CHF 366 million and adjusted operating expenses decreased by CHF 3 million or 1% to CHF 340 million. Personnel expenses decreased by CHF 11 million to CHF 185 million and adjusted personnel expenses decreased by CHF 8 million to CHF 179 million, driven by lower expenses for salaries and variable compensation. General and administrative expenses decreased by CHF 4 million to CHF 52 million and decreased by CHF 7 million to CHF 47 million on an adjusted basis, mainly due to lower professional fees. Net expenses for services from Corporate Center and other business divisions increased by CHF 4 million to CHF 128 million and adjusted net expenses increased by CHF 13 million to CHF 113 million, mainly reflecting higher expenses for strategic and regulatory initiatives and higher expenses from Group Operations.
Net new money: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Excluding money market flows, net new money was CHF 8.5 billion compared with CHF 2.0 billion, which resulted in an annualized net new money growth rate of 5.3% compared with 1.4%. Net new money in the third quarter of 2017 was driven by the Asia Pacific, Switzerland and Americas regions. Passive mandates represented the majority of net new money. The continued trend from active to passive investment management has had, and is expected to continue to have, a dampening effect on gross margins.
Invested assets: 3Q17 vs 2Q17
Invested assets increased to CHF 744 billion from CHF 703 billion, reflecting net new money inflows of CHF 15 billion, including money market flows, positive market performance of CHF 16 billion and positive foreign currency translation effects of CHF 10 billion, mainly driven by the strengthening of the euro and US dollar against the Swiss franc.
In the third quarter of 2017, Hana Financial Group, our partner in South Korea, exercised a 10-year buyout option to acquire UBS Asset Management’s 51% stake in UBS Hana Asset Management. This transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017, subject to regulatory and other approvals, and we expect a decrease in invested assets of approximately CHF 19 billion.
® Refer to the “Group performance” section of this report for more information
Assets under administration: 3Q17 vs 2Q17
Total assets under administration increased to CHF 527 billion from CHF 441 billion, mainly due to inflows of CHF 70 billion.
On 1 October 2017, UBS completed the sale of Asset Management’s fund administration servicing unit in Luxembourg and Switzerland to Northern Trust, concluding our exit from the fund administration business.
® Refer to the “Group performance” section of this report for more information
Results: 9M17 vs 9M16
Profit before tax increased by CHF 32 million or 10% to CHF 340 million and adjusted profit before tax increased by CHF 14 million or 4% to CHF 410 million, reflecting lower operating expenses.
Total operating income decreased by CHF 10 million or 1% to CHF 1,422 million, mainly due to CHF 19 million lower net management fees, reflecting margin compression due to client shifts to passive investment allocation strategies, an impairment loss on a co-investment in an infrastructure fund and increased custody fees recognized as contra-revenues. These decreases were partly offset by positive market performance. Performance fees increased by CHF 9 million to CHF 100 million across our hedge fund businesses and Equities, partly offset by lower performance fees in Real Estate.
Total operating expenses decreased by CHF 42 million or 4% to CHF 1,082 million and adjusted operating expenses decreased by CHF 24 million or 2% to CHF 1,012 million. Personnel expenses decreased by CHF 21 million to CHF 542 million and adjusted personnel expenses decreased by CHF 18 million to CHF 531 million, driven by lower salary expenses, partly offset by higher variable compensation expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by CHF 9 million to CHF 161 million and decreased by CHF 16 million to CHF 145 million on an adjusted basis, primarily due to lower professional fees. Net expenses for services from Corporate Center and other business divisions decreased by CHF 11 million to CHF 375 million, driven by a decrease in restructuring costs, while adjusted net expenses increased by CHF 11 million to CHF 332 million, mainly due to higher expenses for strategic and regulatory initiatives and from Group Operations.

For the purpose of attributing equity under the revised framework effective as of 1 January 2017, these resources are allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units, primarily based on the level of high-quality liquid assets needed to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement of 110%. Refer to “Equity attribution framework” in the “Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information. 8 Based on total RWA and LRD. Figures for periods prior to 31 March 2017 are based on RWA and LRD held by the Investment Bank and are therefore not fully comparable. 9 Refer to the “Risk management and control” section of this report for more information on impaired loan exposures. |

Operating income by business unit
Corporate Client Solutions

Debt Capital Markets revenues increased to CHF 205 million from CHF 188 million, primarily driven by higher leveraged finance and investment grade revenues, where the global fee pools decreased 15% and 6%, respectively.
Financing Solutions revenues decreased by CHF 42 million to CHF 56 million, mainly due to lower revenues in the real estate finance business compared with a strong prior-year quarter.

Financing Services revenues decreased to CHF 317 million from CHF 360 million, driven by reduced prime brokerage revenues.

Profit before tax increased by CHF 502 million or 72% to CHF 1,200 million and adjusted profit before tax increased by CHF 170 million or 15% to CHF 1,329 million, mainly as a result of higher revenues in Corporate Client Solutions, partly offset by lower Investor Client Services revenues.
Revenues in Corporate Client Solutions increased 30% to CHF 2,170 million from CHF 1,674 million. Advisory revenues increased by CHF 46 million to CHF 493 million, reflecting higher revenues from merger and acquisition transactions. Equity Capital Markets revenues increased to CHF 824 million from CHF 470 million, due to increases in revenues from public offerings, as the fee pool increased 27%, as well as higher revenues from private transactions. Debt Capital Markets revenues increased CHF 24 million to CHF 594 million, driven by higher leveraged finance revenues, partly offset by lower investment grade revenues. Financing Solutions revenues decreased to CHF 238 million from CHF 257 million. Risk Management revenues were positive CHF 20 million compared with negative CHF 70 million, reflecting lower costs related to portfolio hedges. In US dollar terms, Corporate Client Solutions revenues increased 30%.
Investor Client Services revenues decreased 6% to CHF 3,765 million from CHF 4,007 million. Excluding a gain of CHF 107 million from the sale of our remaining investment in IHS Markit in the first nine months of 2017, adjusted revenues decreased 9% or CHF 349 million to CHF 3,658 million, due to lower revenues in Foreign Exchange, Rates and Credit. Adjusted Equities revenues increased by CHF 24 million to CHF 2,619 million. Adjusted Cash revenues decreased to CHF 876 million from CHF 931 million, mainly due to lower client activity. Derivatives revenues increased to CHF 669 million from CHF 526 million, reflecting improved client activity. Financing Services revenues decreased to CHF 1,091 million from CHF 1,131 million, driven by reduced prime brokerage revenues. Adjusted Foreign Exchange, Rates and Credit revenues decreased to CHF 1,039 million from CHF 1,412 million, reflecting low volatility levels in the second and third quarters of 2017 compared with a strong prior-year period that benefited from elevated client activity and volatility levels. In US dollar terms, adjusted Investor Client Services revenues decreased 9%.
Total operating expenses decreased by CHF 253 million or 5% to CHF 4,724 million and adjusted operating expenses decreased by CHF 28 million or 1% to CHF 4,488 million. A decrease in net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters and a UK bank levy credit of CHF 42 million related to prior years were largely offset by an increase in personnel expenses, reflecting higher expenses for variable compensation, increased Group Technology expenses and higher costs for strategic and regulatory initiatives.

Results: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Corporate Center – Services recorded a loss before tax of CHF 401 million compared with a loss of CHF 218 million and an adjusted loss of CHF 392 million compared with a loss of CHF 214 million.
Operating income
Operating income was stable at negative CHF 70 million, reflecting higher funding costs relating to Corporate Center – Services’ balance sheet assets, largely offset by higher treasury-related income from Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management (Group ALM), resulting from a change made in the first quarter of 2017 to the methodology used to allocate certain Group ALM revenues.

Operating expenses
Operating expenses before service allocations to business divisions and other Corporate Center units
Before allocations to business divisions and other Corporate Center units, total operating expenses increased by CHF 187 million or 9% to CHF 2,349 million and increased by CHF 292 million or 16% to CHF 2,122 million on an adjusted basis.
Personnel expenses decreased by CHF 46 million to CHF 900 million due to lower restructuring costs and were stable at CHF 785 million on an adjusted basis. General and administrative expenses increased by CHF 225 million to CHF 1,199 million and increased by CHF 287 million to CHF 1,089 million on an adjusted basis. This increase was due to CHF 245 million higher net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters, resulting from the resolution of the majority of outstanding indemnification claims related to our sale of Banco UBS Pactual S.A. to BTG Investments. We believe the remaining indemnification claims will not result in a material liability for the Group. In addition, IT infrastructure costs increased by CHF 31 million. Depreciation expenses increased to CHF 249 million from CHF 237 million, primarily reflecting increased expenses related to internally generated capitalized software.
® Refer to “Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of this report
Services to / from business divisions and other Corporate Center units
Corporate Center – Services allocated expenses of CHF 2,018 million to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units compared with CHF 2,010 million. Adjusted net allocated expenses for services to business divisions and other Corporate Center units were CHF 1,800 million compared with CHF 1,683 million, mainly as the costs allocated to business divisions and other Corporate Center units in 2016 were lower than the actual costs incurred by Corporate Center – Services on their behalf. From January 2017, costs are allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units based on actual costs incurred by Corporate Center – Services.

Operating expenses after service allocations to / from business divisions and other Corporate Center units
Corporate Center – Services retains costs related to Group governance functions and other corporate activities, certain strategic and regulatory projects and certain restructuring expenses. Total operating expenses remaining in Corporate Center – Services after allocations increased to CHF 331 million from CHF 152 million and to CHF 322 million from CHF 148 million on an adjusted basis, driven by the aforementioned higher net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters. This increase was partly offset as the costs allocated to business divisions and other Corporate Center units in 2016 were lower than the actual costs incurred by Corporate Center – Services on their behalf.
Results: 9M17 vs 9M16
Corporate Center – Services recorded a loss before tax of CHF 759 million compared with CHF 534 million and an adjusted loss before tax of CHF 736 million compared with CHF 637 million.
Total operating income was negative CHF 107 million compared with negative CHF 43 million. Excluding gains on sales of real estate of CHF 120 million in the first nine months of 2016, adjusted income was negative CHF 107 million compared with negative CHF 163 million, mainly due to higher treasury-related income from Group ALM, partly offset by higher funding costs relating to Corporate Center – Services’ balance sheet assets.
41
Corporate Center
Before allocations, total operating expenses increased by CHF 48 million or 1% to CHF 6,654 million. Adjusted operating expenses before allocations increased by CHF 274 million to CHF 6,016 million, mainly reflecting CHF 240 million higher net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters, primarily resulting from the resolution of the majority of outstanding indemnification claims related to our sale of Banco UBS Pactual S.A. to BTG Investments. In addition, increased depreciation expenses related to internally generated capitalized software and higher personnel expenses were partly offset by lower marketing costs.
Corporate Center – Services allocated expenses of CHF 6,002 million to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units compared with CHF 6,115 million. Adjusted net allocated expenses were CHF 5,387 million compared with CHF 5,268 million, mainly as the costs allocated to business divisions and other Corporate Center units in 2016 were lower than the actual costs incurred by Corporate Center – Services on their behalf. Total operating expenses remaining in Corporate Center – Services after allocations increased to CHF 652 million from CHF 491 million. On an adjusted basis, retained expenses increased to CHF 629 million from CHF 474 million, mainly reflecting the aforementioned higher net expenses for provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters. This increase was partly offset as the costs allocated to business divisions and other Corporate Center units in 2016 were lower than the actual costs incurred by Corporate Center – Services on their behalf.

Corporate Center
Results: 3Q17 vs 3Q16
Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management (Group ALM) recorded a loss before tax of CHF 67 million compared with a profit of CHF 30 million.
Operating income
Total operating income after allocations to business divisions and other Corporate Center units was negative CHF 49 million compared with positive CHF 30 million, mainly due to a higher positive effect in the prior-year quarter from accounting asymmetries related to economic hedges.
Total risk management net income before allocations
Total risk management net income before allocations to business divisions and other Corporate Center units was CHF 16 million compared with CHF 56 million, mainly due to higher negative net income from capital investment and issuance activities.
Business division-aligned risk management net income
Net income from business division-aligned risk management activities before allocations was CHF 180 million compared with CHF 202 million. A decrease in interest rate risk management revenues in the banking book for Wealth Management and Personal & Corporate Banking was largely offset by higher net income in Risk Exposure Management due to a claim of CHF 21 million on a defaulted counterparty position, allocated to Corporate Center – Non-core and Legacy Portfolio.
Capital investment and issuance net income
Net income from capital investment and issuance activities before allocations was negative CHF 32 million compared with negative CHF 5 million, mostly due to lower interest income from the investment of the Group’s equity as a result of lower interest rates on reinvestments. Interest expenses on total outstanding long-term debt issued that contributes to total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) were stable.
Group structural risk management net income
Net income from Group structural risk management activities before allocations was negative CHF 132 million compared with negative CHF 141 million. A decrease in net interest expense of CHF 29 million on Group ALM’s portfolio of internal funding, including the Group’s long-term debt, was partly offset by a decrease in income of CHF 22 million from the management of the Group’s high-quality liquid assets (HQLA). These movements were largely the result of a market-driven shift in the internal funding curve, resulting in tighter spreads between certain HQLA and internal funding liabilities.
Allocations to business divisions and other Corporate Center units
Combined net income allocations from risk management activities to business divisions and other Corporate Center units were CHF 61 million compared with CHF 95 million, mainly reflecting the aforementioned higher negative net income from capital investment and issuance activities, which is allocated to business divisions and other Corporate Center units in proportion to their attributed equity.
Total risk management net income after allocations
Group ALM retained negative income of CHF 44 million from its risk management activities after allocations compared with negative CHF 39 million.
Retained income from risk management activities is entirely related to Group structural risk management and is mainly the net result of costs from buffers that are maintained by Group ALM at levels above the total consumption of the business divisions and the revenues generated by Group ALM from the management of the Group’s HQLA portfolio relative to the benchmark rates used to allocate the costs. Retained income from risk management activities can vary significantly quarter on quarter. However, under current market conditions, we expect it to average around negative CHF 50 million per quarter.
Accounting asymmetries related to economic hedges
Net income retained by Group ALM due to accounting asymmetries related to economic hedges was CHF 8 million compared with CHF 95 million, partly due to a loss of CHF 38 million compared with a profit of CHF 11 million on Group ALM’s cross-currency derivatives hedges. Additionally, Group ALM recognized a gain of CHF 5 million compared with CHF 29 million related to HQLA classified as available for sale.
Hedge accounting ineffectiveness
Net income related to hedge accounting ineffectiveness was negative CHF 12 million compared with negative CHF 23 million. This ineffectiveness primarily arises from changes in the spread between LIBOR and the overnight index swap rate due to differences in the way these affect the valuation of the hedged items and hedging instruments through either the benchmark rate determining cash flows or the discount rate.
Other
Other net income was broadly unchanged at negative CHF 1 million.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses were CHF 18 million compared with nil. From June 2017, Group ALM retains costs related to Group structural risk management income to the extent that such income is not allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units. Previously, Group ALM allocated all costs to business divisions and other Corporate Center units.

Balance sheet, risk-weighted assets, leverage ratio denominator: 3Q17 vs 2Q17
Balance sheet assets
Balance sheet assets increased by CHF 6 billion to CHF 259 billion, reflecting net debt issuances, partly offset by increased net funding utilization by the business divisions.
® Refer to the “Balance sheet, liquidity and funding management” section of this report for more information
Risk-weighted assets
Risk-weighted assets (RWA) were broadly unchanged at CHF 12 billion.
® Refer to the “Capital management” section of this report for more information
Leverage ratio denominator
The Swiss SRB leverage ratio denominator (LRD) increased by CHF 5 billion to CHF 263 billion, consistent with the increase in balance sheet assets.
® Refer to the “Capital management” section of this report for more information
Equity attribution framework
For the purpose of attributing equity under the revised framework effective as of 1 January 2017, LRD and RWA held by Group ALM directly associated with activity that Group ALM manages centrally on behalf of the business divisions and other Corporate Center units are allocated to those business divisions and other Corporate Center units. These balances mainly relate to HQLA that Group ALM holds to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement of 110%.
Average equity attributed directly to Group ALM, which excludes the aforementioned LRD and RWA balances, was CHF 2.9 billion in the third quarter of 2017 and mainly relates to buffers that are maintained by Group ALM at levels above the total consumption of the business divisions and for its own flow management activity.
® Refer to “Equity attribution and return on attributed equity” in the “Capital management” section of this report for more information
Results: 9M17 vs 9M16
Group ALM recorded a loss before tax of CHF 108 million compared with a loss of CHF 74 million and on an adjusted basis recorded a loss before tax of CHF 83 million compared with a profit of CHF 75 million.
Total operating income was negative CHF 79 million compared with negative CHF 75 million. Excluding net foreign currency translation losses of CHF 22 million compared with CHF 149 million, adjusted total operating income was negative CHF 57 million compared with positive CHF 74 million.
Net income from risk management activities before allocations decreased by CHF 140 million to CHF 164 million. This was mainly due to a decrease of CHF 146 million to negative CHF 94 million in net income from capital investment and issuance activities, driven by higher net interest expenses as a result of an increase in total outstanding long-term debt issued that contributes to TLAC and by lower revenues from the investment of the Group’s equity.
Revenues related to business division-aligned risk management decreased by CHF 82 million to CHF 555 million, mainly due to a decrease in interest rate risk management revenues in the banking book for Wealth Management and Personal & Corporate Banking.
Net income from Group structural risk management activities improved by CHF 87 million to negative CHF 297 million, driven by higher income from the management of the Group’s HQLA, partly offset by an increase in interest expense due to issuances of long-term debt.
Net income allocations to business divisions and other Corporate Center units decreased by CHF 215 million to CHF 199 million, mainly due to negative capital investment and issuance net income and reductions in business division-aligned risk management.
Retained income from risk management activities improved by CHF 74 million to negative CHF 35 million, reflecting an increase in revenues from the Group’s HQLA portfolio due to wider spreads between certain HQLA and internal funding liabilities.
Net income retained by Group ALM due to accounting asymmetries related to economic hedges was negative CHF 17 million compared with positive CHF 67 million, driven by fair value losses on derivative hedges in our long-term debt portfolio, partly offset by gains related to HQLA classified as available for sale.
Net income related to hedge accounting ineffectiveness on hedge-accounted derivatives was negative CHF 5 million compared with positive CHF 27 million.
Other net income was nil compared with positive CHF 90 million, reflecting lower interest income retained by Group ALM related to non-controlling interests and negative fair value hedge movements on the portion of derivatives used to hedge debt issuances that does not qualify for hedge accounting.

1 Comparative figures in this table may differ from those originally published in quarterly and annual reports due to adjustments following organizational changes, restatements due to the retrospective adoption of new accounting standards or changes in accounting policies, and events after the reporting period. 2 Adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC regulations. 3 Refer to the “Capital management” section of this report for more information. 4 Based on third-party view, i.e., without intercompany balances. 5 Represents leverage ratio denominator held by Corporate Center – Group ALM that is directly associated with activity managed centrally on behalf of the business divisions and other Corporate Center units. For the purpose of attributing equity under the revised framework effective as of 1 January 2017, this resource is allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units, primarily based on the level of high-quality liquid assets needed to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement of 110%.

This section provides information on key developments during the reporting period and should be read in conjunction with the “Risk management and control” section of our Annual Report 2016.
Overall credit risk exposures were broadly unchanged during the third quarter of 2017. We recorded a net credit loss recovery of CHF 7 million.
We are completing our assessment of the impact of recent natural disasters in the US and the Caribbean region on our portfolios and currently do not expect to incur material losses.
We continue to manage our Swiss lending portfolios prudently and remain watchful for any signs of deterioration in the Swiss economy that could impact some of our counterparties.
Within the Investment Bank, our loan underwriting business continued to see a steady flow of transactions. These were predominantly sub-investment grade and distribution remained sound. Loan underwriting exposures are classified as held for trading, with fair values reflecting the market conditions at the end of the quarter. We also continue to actively monitor our exposures to the energy sector.
We continued to manage market risks at generally low levels. Average 1-day, 95% confidence level, management value-at-risk decreased slightly to CHF 11 million from CHF 12 million.
As of 30 September 2017, the interest rate sensitivity of our banking book to a +1 basis point parallel shift in yield curves was negative CHF 2.5 million compared with negative CHF 2.9 million as of 30 June 2017. The reduction in negative interest rate sensitivity was primarily due to enhanced modeling of risk sensitivities of auction rate and auction preferred securities. A portion of the fair value change resulting from the banking book interest rate sensitivity would impact other comprehensive income (OCI). The interest rate sensitivity to a +1 basis point parallel shift in yield curves of financial assets and derivatives in the banking book valued through OCI was negative CHF 22 million as of 30 September 2017. This OCI sensitivity was predominantly attributable to cash flow hedges denominated in US dollars and, to a lesser extent, in euros and Swiss francs. These cash flow hedges are not recognized for the purposes of calculating regulatory capital.
® Refer to “Sensitivity to interest rate movements” in the “Group performance” section of this report for more information on the impact of rising interest rates on equity, capital and net interest income
Country risk
We remain watchful of developments in Europe, including the Catalonian referendum and political shifts in a number of countries. Our direct exposure to peripheral European countries remained limited, although we continue to have significant country risk exposure to major EU economies, including the UK, Germany and France.
Our direct exposure to the Caribbean region was not significant and our direct exposure to Puerto Rico was CHF 23 million as of 30 September 2017.
® Refer to the “Risk management and control” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information
The pervasive consequential risk themes that continue to challenge UBS and the financial industry are operational resilience, conduct and culture, and financial crime. Cyber security is at the forefront of operational resilience, and we continue to invest in preemptive and detective measures to defend against evolving and highly sophisticated attacks.
We have set our cyber security objectives in line with prevailing international standards and our investment priorities focus on behavioral change, readiness to address a cyberattack, data protection, and application and infrastructure security.
Given the profile of our wealth management businesses as well as heightened regulatory expectations, maintaining effective programs for prevention and detection of money laundering and for sanctions compliance is a high priority for us. We are investing to improve our detection and monitoring capabilities, including in automation of our processes.
Binding stress scenario
We have developed a new Severe Eurozone Crisis scenario to be used as the binding stress scenario in our combined stress test framework for 2018. In line with the currently binding Global Deflation scenario, this retains a eurozone crisis at its core, but with greater severity through the inclusion of an additional sovereign debt restructuring as a consequence of the ensuing crisis. A China hard landing remains a feature of the scenario, while the assumption of more severe negative rates in major developed countries has been removed. Forecast losses under the new scenario are not expected to differ materially from losses calculated under the Global Deflation scenario.

1 Internal management view of credit risk, which differs in certain respects from IFRS. 2 Excludes reclassified securities and similar acquired securities held by Corporate Center – Non-core and Legacy Portfolio. 3 Excludes loans designated at fair value. 4 As of 30 September 2017, loan exposures reported under IFRS for the Investment Bank and Corporate Center – Non-core and Legacy Portfolio were CHF 10,264 million (30 June 2017: CHF 9,861 million) and CHF 2,443 million (30 June 2017: CHF 2,401 million), respectively. For all other business divisions and Corporate Center units, IFRS loans exposure was the same as the internal management view. 5 As counterparty risk for traded products is managed at counterparty level, no further split between exposures in the Investment Bank, Corporate Center – Non-core and Legacy Portfolio and Corporate Center – Group ALM is provided. |

1 Statistics at individual levels may not be summed to deduce the corresponding aggregate figures. The minima and maxima for each level may occur on different days, and likewise, the VaR for each business line or risk type, being driven by the extreme loss tail of the corresponding distribution of simulated profits and losses for that business line or risk type, may well be driven by different days in the historical time series, rendering invalid the simple summation of figures to arrive at the aggregate total. 2 Difference between the sum of the standalone VaR for the business divisions and Corporate Center units and the VaR for the Group as a whole. 3 As the minimum and maximum occur on different days for different business divisions and Corporate Center units, it is not meaningful to calculate a portfolio diversification effect. |

1 In the prevailing negative interest rate environment for the Swiss franc in particular, and to a lesser extent for the euro, interest rates for Wealth Management and Personal & Corporate Banking client transactions are generally floored at non-negative levels. Accordingly, for the purposes of this disclosure table, downward moves of 100 / 200 basis points are floored to ensure that the resulting shocked interest rates do not turn negative. The flooring results in non-linear sensitivity behavior. |

Balance sheet, liquidity and funding management
Balance sheet, liquidity and funding management
Strategy, objectives and governance
This section provides balance sheet, liquidity and funding management information and should be read in conjunction with the “Treasury management” section of our Annual Report 2016, which provides more information about the Group’s strategy, objectives and governance for liquidity and funding management.
Balances disclosed in this section represent quarter-end positions, unless indicated otherwise. Intra-quarter balances fluctuate in the ordinary course of business and may differ from quarter-end positions.
Assets and liquidity management
As of 30 September 2017, balance sheet assets totaled CHF 914 billion, an increase of CHF 23 billion from 30 June 2017. Total assets excluding positive replacement values (PRVs) increased by CHF 25 billion to CHF 794 billion, largely resulting from a strengthening of major currencies against the Swiss franc and an increase in receivables from securities financing transactions. Excluding currency effects, total assets excluding PRVs increased by CHF 15 billion.
Receivables from securities financing transactions increased by CHF 14 billion, primarily in Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management (Group ALM), reflecting higher transaction volumes and a rebalancing of our high-quality liquid assets (HQLA). Lending assets increased by CHF 7 billion, mainly due to an increase in Lombard lending in Wealth Management and currency effects. Trading portfolio assets increased by CHF 7 billion, primarily within the Investment Bank, reflecting higher global equity markets and a client-driven increase in Corporate Client Solutions. Other assets increased by CHF 5 billion, primarily in Equities, mainly resulting from increases in cash collateral receivables on derivative instruments and prime brokerage receivables.
Cash and balances with central banks decreased by CHF 6 billion, primarily reflecting higher funding utilization by the business divisions, maturities of various fixed-term deposits and a rebalancing within our HQLA portfolio, partly offset by debt issuances. PRVs decreased by CHF 2 billion, mainly in our Non-core and Legacy Portfolio, reflecting fair value changes and trade maturities, primarily related to foreign exchange and interest rate contracts. Financial assets designated at fair value, available for sale and held to maturity decreased by CHF 2 billion as HQLA rebalancing in Corporate Center – Group ALM was partly offset by a client-driven increase in the Investment Bank.

Liquidity coverage ratio
In the third quarter of 2017, our liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) increased 11 percentage points to 142%, remaining above the 110% Group LCR minimum communicated by FINMA. The increase in LCR was mainly driven by lower average net cash outflows from financial liabilities at fair value and other unsecured wholesale funding, as well as additional debt issuances. These effects more than offset the negative impact from a reduction in overall HQLA due to lower deposit volumes and higher funding in our US operations to meet our liquidity requirements.
® Refer to the “Recent developments” section of this report for more information on proposed changes to LCR requirements in Switzerland
® Refer to the “Treasury management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information on liquidity management and the liquidity coverage ratio

Balance sheet, liquidity and funding management
Liabilities and funding management
Total liabilities increased by CHF 21 billion to CHF 859 billion as of 30 September 2017. Long-term debt issued increased by CHF 10 billion, primarily driven by the issuance of CHF 3.1 billion equivalent of US dollar-denominated senior unsecured debt that contributes to our total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) and CHF 4.7 billion equivalent of euro- and Australian dollar-denominated senior unsecured debt, as well as by a CHF 2 billion increase in financial liabilities designated at fair value, mainly in our Equities business, partly offset by the maturity of CHF 1.5 billion equivalent of US dollar-denominated senior unsecured debt.
Payables from securities financing transactions increased by CHF 6 billion, primarily in Corporate Center – Group ALM. Trading portfolio liabilities increased by CHF 5 billion, primarily reflecting higher global equity markets and a client-driven increase in Corporate Client Solutions, consistent with the aforementioned increases in trading portfolio assets. Short-term borrowings increased by CHF 3 billion, mainly reflecting net issuances of commercial paper, partly offset by net maturities of certificates of deposit. Other liabilities increased by CHF 3 billion, largely due to an increase in prime brokerage payables.
Negative replacement values decreased by CHF 4 billion, broadly in line with PRVs. Customer deposits decreased by CHF 3 billion, or CHF 7 billion excluding currency effects, primarily in Wealth Management, due to a reduction in demand deposits, and in Corporate Center – Group ALM, reflecting the maturity of several fixed-term deposits.
The “Funding by product and currency” table and the “Asset funding” chart on the following page provide more information on our funding sources.

Equity
Equity attributable to shareholders increased by CHF 1,749 million to CHF 53,493 million.
Total comprehensive income attributable to shareholders was CHF 1,543 million, reflecting net profit of CHF 946 million and other comprehensive income (OCI) of CHF 596 million. OCI included OCI related to foreign currency translation of CHF 603 million, OCI related to defined benefit plans of CHF 123 million and OCI related to financial assets available for sale of CHF 24 million, partly offset by negative OCI related to cash flow hedges of CHF 118 million and negative OCI related to own credit of CHF 36 million.
Share premium increased by CHF 182 million, mainly due to the amortization of deferred equity compensation awards.
Treasury share activity increased equity attributable to shareholders by CHF 24 million.

Net stable funding ratio
As of 30 September 2017, our estimated pro forma net stable funding ratio (NSFR) was 108%, a decrease of 2 percentage points from 30 June 2017, primarily reflecting an CHF 18 billion increase in required stable funding, mainly driven by an increase in secured and unsecured lending activity, partly offset by a CHF 12 billion increase in available funding, primarily resulting from an increase in unsecured funding.
The calculation of our pro forma NSFR includes estimates of the effect of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision rules and will be refined when NSFR rule-making is completed in Switzerland and as regulatory interpretations evolve and new models and associated systems are enhanced.
® Refer to the “Recent developments” section of this report for more information on postponement of the NSFR in Switzerland

Requirements and capital adequacy information
Information on the Swiss SRB capital framework and on Swiss SRB going and gone concern requirements that are being phased in until the end of 2019 is provided in the “Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016. These requirements are also applicable to UBS AG consolidated and UBS Switzerland AG standalone. UBS AG is subject to going concern requirements on a standalone basis. More information is provided in the UBS Group AG and significant regulated subsidiaries and sub-groups third quarter 2017 Pillar 3 report under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at www.ubs.com/investors.
Under the Swiss SRB framework, banks are eligible for a rebate of up to 2% of the leverage ratio denominator (LRD)-based gone concern capital requirement if they take actions that facilitate recovery and resolvability beyond the minimum requirement. FINMA has communicated its annual assessment and has increased our rebate to approximately one-third of the maximum based on actions we completed in 2016 to improve resolvability. The rebate will be phased in until 1 January 2020. As we complete additional measures to improve the resolvability of the Group, we expect to qualify for a larger rebate and therefore aim to operate with a gone concern ratio of less than 4% of the LRD on completion of the phase-in period.
The table below provides the risk-weighted assets (RWA)- and LRD-based requirements and information as of 30 September 2017.

1 This table does not include the effect of any gone concern requirement rebate. 2 Includes outstanding low-trigger loss-absorbing additional tier 1 (AT1) capital instruments, which are available under the transitional rules of the Swiss SRB framework to meet the going concern requirements until their first call date, even if the first call date is after 31 December 2019. As of their first call date, these instruments are eligible to meet the gone concern requirements. Low-trigger loss-absorbing AT1 capital was partly offset by required deductions for goodwill on a phase-in basis. 3 Includes outstanding high- and low-trigger loss-absorbing tier 2 capital instruments, which are available under the transitional rules of the Swiss SRB framework to meet the going concern requirements until the earlier of (i) their maturity or first call date or (ii) 31 December 2019, and to meet gone concern requirements thereafter. Outstanding low-trigger loss-absorbing tier 2 capital instruments are subject to amortization starting five years prior to their maturity, with the amortized portion qualifying as gone concern loss-absorbing capacity. Instruments available to meet gone concern requirements are eligible until one year before maturity, with a haircut of 50% applied in the last year of eligibility. 4 Consists of a minimum capital requirement of 8% and a buffer capital requirement of 4.22%, including the effect of countercyclical buffers of 0.22%. 5 Consists of a minimum leverage ratio requirement of 3% and a buffer leverage ratio requirement of 0.5%. 6 Includes applicable add-ons of 0.36% for RWA and 0.13% for leverage ratio denominator. 7 Consists of a minimum capital requirement of 8% and a buffer capital requirement of 6.52%, including the effect of countercyclical buffers of 0.22% and applicable add-ons of 1.44%. 8 Consists of a minimum leverage ratio requirement of 3% and a buffer leverage ratio requirement of 2%, including applicable add-ons of 0.5%. |

Going concern capital
As of 30 September 2017, our fully applied common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital increased by CHF 0.7 billion to CHF 32.6 billion, mainly as a result of operating profit before tax, partly offset by accruals for capital returns to shareholders.
Gone concern loss-absorbing capacity
Our fully applied gone concern loss-absorbing capacity increased by CHF 3.7 billion to CHF 36.9 billion, primarily driven by the issuance of CHF 3.1 billion equivalent in US dollar-denominated senior unsecured debt instruments, which contributes to our total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC).
® Refer to “Bondholder information” at www.ubs.com/investors for more information on the eligibility of capital and senior unsecured debt instruments and on key features and terms and conditions of capital instruments
Loss-absorbing capacity and leverage ratios
Our fully applied CET1 capital ratio increased 0.2 percentage points to 13.7%, reflecting an increase in CET1 capital of CHF 0.7 billion, partly offset by a CHF 1.3 billion increase in RWA.
Our fully applied CET1 leverage ratio was 3.7%, unchanged from 30 June 2017, as the aforementioned increase in CET1 capital was offset by an increase of CHF 24 billion in the LRD.
On a phase-in basis, our CET1 capital ratio increased 0.3 percentage points to 15.1%, while our CET1 leverage ratio was stable at 4.1%.
On a fully applied basis, our gone concern loss-absorbing capacity ratio increased 1.5 percentage points to 15.5%, primarily driven by the aforementioned issuance of senior unsecured debt instruments. Our gone concern leverage ratio on a fully applied basis increased 0.3 percentage points to 4.2%.

Post-stress CET1 capital ratio
We are committed to total capital returns to shareholders of at least 50% of net profit attributable to shareholders, provided that we maintain a fully applied CET1 capital ratio of at least 13% and consistent with our objective of maintaining a post-stress fully applied CET1 capital ratio of at least 10%. Our post-stress CET1 capital ratio exceeded the 10% objective as of 30 September 2017.

Sensitivity to currency movements
Risk-weighted assets
We estimate that a 10% depreciation of the Swiss franc against other currencies would have increased our fully applied RWA by CHF 11 billion and our fully applied CET1 capital by CHF 1.2 billion as of 30 September 2017 (30 June 2017: CHF 11 billion and CHF 1.2 billion, respectively) and reduced our fully applied CET1 capital ratio by 11 basis points (30 June 2017: 11 basis points). Conversely, we estimate that a 10% appreciation of the Swiss franc against other currencies would have reduced our fully applied RWA by CHF 10 billion and our fully applied CET1 capital by CHF 1.1 billion (30 June 2017: CHF 10 billion and CHF 1.1 billion, respectively) and increased our fully applied CET1 capital ratio by 11 basis points (30 June 2017: 11 basis points).

Leverage ratio denominator
We estimate that a 10% depreciation of the Swiss franc against other currencies would have increased our fully applied LRD by CHF 67 billion (30 June 2017: CHF 64 billion) and reduced our fully applied Swiss SRB going concern leverage ratio by 11 basis points (30 June 2017: 11 basis points). Conversely, we estimate that a 10% appreciation of the Swiss franc against other currencies would have reduced our fully applied LRD by CHF 60 billion (30 June 2016: CHF 58 billion) and increased our fully applied Swiss SRB going concern leverage ratio by 11 basis points (30 June 2017: 11 basis points).
® Refer to “Active management of sensitivity to currency movements” in the “Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information
The aforementioned sensitivities do not consider foreign currency translation effects related to defined benefit plans other than those related to the currency translation of the net equity of foreign operations.
Estimated effect on capital from litigation, regulatory and similar matters subject to provisions and contingent liabilities
We have estimated the loss in capital that we could incur as a result of the risks associated with the matters described in “Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities” to our consolidated financial statements. This is an estimated amount and is not related to and should not be considered in addition to these provisions and contingent liabilities. We have utilized for this purpose the advanced measurement approach (AMA) methodology that we use when determining the capital requirements associated with operational risks, based on a 99.9% confidence level over a 12-month horizon. The methodology takes into consideration UBS and industry experience for the AMA operational risk categories to which those matters correspond, as well as the external environment affecting risks of these types, in isolation from other areas. On this standalone basis, we estimate the loss in capital that we could incur over a 12-month period as a result of our risks associated with these operational risk categories at CHF 4.9 billion as of 30 September 2017. This estimate does not take into account any provisions recognized for any of these matters and does not constitute a subjective assessment of UBS’s actual exposure in any of these matters.

Capital management
During the third quarter of 2017, fully applied risk-weighted assets (RWA) increased by CHF 1.3 billion to CHF 238.0 billion, mainly driven by currency effects of CHF 1.6 billion and regulatory add-ons of CHF 1.0 billion, partly offset by methodology, policy changes and model updates of CHF 1.6 billion.

Credit risk
Credit risk RWA increased by CHF 0.5 billion to CHF 127.3 billion as of 30 September 2017.
The RWA increase from currency effects of CHF 1.5 billion and from regulatory add-ons of CHF 0.8 billion, reflecting an increase in the internal ratings-based (IRB) multiplier on Investment Bank exposures to corporates, was partly offset by several asset size and other movements totaling CHF 1.9 billion.
We anticipate that methodology changes and model updates, including adjustments to probability of default and loss given default factors, credit conversion factors and scheduled increases in the FINMA-required multiplier for Investment Bank exposures to corporates, will increase credit risk RWA by around CHF 3 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017. We expect that there will be further regulatory-driven increases in credit risk RWA in 2018. The extent and timing of further RWA increases may vary as methodology changes and model updates are completed and receive regulatory approval, and as regulatory multipliers are adjusted. In addition, changes in composition of the relevant portfolios and other factors will affect our RWA. Our estimates of future regulation-driven RWA increases do not reflect mitigating actions that we may take or further proposed changes to the Basel framework.
® Refer to “Credit risk models” in the “Risk management and control” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information on loss given default, probability of default, credit conversion factors and exposure at default
Market risk RWA increased by CHF 0.4 billion due to asset size and other movements, mainly as a result of higher average regulatory value-at-risk (VaR) levels observed during the quarter, primarily in the Investment Bank’s Equities business, partly offset by the effects of an enhancement to VaR model parameters.
We expect changes to the risks-not-in-VaR charge. Based on our current estimates, this is expected to result in an RWA increase of approximately CHF 1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017, with an additional effect of approximately CHF 2 billion in 2018. Our estimates of future RWA increases do not reflect mitigating actions that we may take or any changes in the trading book composition or risk levels.

Operational risk
Operational risk RWA were CHF 79.4 billion as of 30 September 2017, unchanged from 30 June 2017.

For the purpose of attributing equity under the revised framework effective as of 1 January 2017, these resources are allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units, primarily based on the level of high-quality liquid assets needed to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement of 110%. Refer to “Equity attribution framework“ in the “Capital management“ section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information. |

1 Excludes positive replacement values, cash collateral receivables on derivative instruments, cash collateral on securities borrowed, reverse repurchase agreements, margin loans and prime brokerage receivables related to securities financing transactions, which are presented separately under Derivative exposures and Securities financing transactions in this table. |
Currency effects mainly reflect the strengthening of major currencies against the Swiss franc. The LRD movements described below exclude currency effects.
Securities financing transactions (SFTs) increased by CHF 15 billion due to asset size and other movements, primarily in Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management (Group ALM), reflecting higher transaction volumes and a rebalancing of our high-quality liquid assets (HQLA), as well as in the Investment Bank.
On-balance sheet exposures (excluding derivatives and SFTs) decreased by CHF 1 billion due to asset size and other movements, mainly resulting from a CHF 6 billion decrease in cash and balances with central banks and a CHF 3 billion decrease in financial assets designated at fair value, available for sale and held to maturity, mostly offset by a CHF 3 billion increase in lending and a CHF 4 billion increase in trading portfolio assets. Cash and balances with central banks decreased by CHF 6 billion, primarily reflecting higher funding utilization by the business divisions as well as maturities of various fixed-term deposits and HQLA rebalancing, partly offset by debt issuances in Corporate Center – Group ALM. Financial assets designated at fair value, available for sale and held to maturity decreased by CHF 3 billion, as HQLA rebalancing in Corporate Center – Group ALM was partly offset by a client-driven increase in the Investment Bank. The CHF 3 billion increase in lending mainly reflects higher Lombard lending in Wealth Management, and the CHF 4 billion increase in trading portfolio assets within the Investment Bank reflects higher global equity markets and a client-driven increase in Corporate Client Solutions .

1 Represents the difference between the IFRS and the regulatory scope of consolidation, which is the applicable scope for the LRD calculation. 2 Consists of positive replacement values, cash collateral receivables on derivative instruments, cash collateral on securities borrowed, reverse repurchase agreements, margin loans and prime brokerage receivables related to securities financing transactions in accordance with the regulatory scope of consolidation, which are presented separately under Derivative exposures and Securities financing transactions. 3 Represents LRD held by the respective business division or Corporate Center unit. 4 Represents LRD held by Corporate Center – Group ALM that is directly associated with activity managed centrally on behalf of the business divisions and other Corporate Center units. For the purpose of attributing equity under the revised framework effective as of 1 January 2017, these resources are allocated to the business divisions and other Corporate Center units, primarily based on the level of high-quality liquid assets needed to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement of 110%. Refer to “Equity attribution framework” in the ”Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information. |

Capital management
Equity attribution and return on attributed equity
Average attributed equity to business divisions and Corporate Center decreased by CHF 0.1 billion to CHF 52.6 billion in the third quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter. Average attributed tangible equity decreased by CHF 0.1 billion to CHF 46.3 billion.
Change in equity attribution framework in 2017
In the first quarter of 2017, we implemented an updated equity attribution framework, which reflects the revision of the too big to fail provisions applicable to Swiss systemically relevant banks.
Effective 1 January 2017, the weighting used for the attribution of tangible equity was changed from an equal driver weighting of one-third each for average fully applied risk-weighted assets (RWA), average fully applied leverage ratio denominator (LRD) and risk-based capital (RBC) to 50% each for RWA and LRD. Average fully applied RWA and LRD continue to be converted to their common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital equivalents based on capital ratios of 11% and 3.75%, respectively, both of which exceed future regulatory requirements. If the tangible attributed equity calculated under the weighted-driver approach is less than the CET1 capital equivalent of RBC for any business division, the CET1 capital equivalent of RBC will be used as a floor for that business division.
Under the revised framework, LRD and RWA held
by Corporate Center – Group Asset and Liability Management (Group ALM) directly
associated with activities that Corporate Center – Group ALM manages centrally
on behalf of the
business divisions and other Corporate Center units are allocated to those
business divisions and other Corporate Center units for the purpose of equity
attribution. This allocation is primarily based on the level of high-quality
liquid assets that is needed to meet the Group’s minimum liquidity coverage
ratio requirement of 110%. Corporate Center – Group ALM continues to retain
attributed equity related to liquidity and funding surpluses, i.e., at levels
above regulatory requirements, together with that related to its own
activities.
In addition to tangible equity, we continue to allocate equity to our businesses to support goodwill and intangible assets. However, following the aforementioned change in the first quarter of 2017, we now also attribute to the business divisions equity for goodwill and intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of PaineWebber that until 1 January 2017 was held centrally in Group items within Corporate Center – Services under the previous framework.
We now attribute all Basel III capital deduction items to Group items. These deduction items include deferred tax assets, which constitute the largest component of Group items, unrealized gains from cash flow hedges and compensation- and own shares-related components. Prior to 2017, Group items only included an amount of attributed equity for certain capital deduction items. The total amount of attributed equity now equals average shareholders’ equity.
® Refer to the “Capital management” section of our Annual Report 2016 for more information on the equity attribution framework

Notes to the UBS Group AG interim consolidated financial statements (unaudited)
Notes to the UBS Group AG interim
consolidated financial statements (unaudited)
The consolidated financial statements (the Financial Statements) of UBS Group AG and its subsidiaries (together “UBS” or “the Group”) are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and are presented in Swiss francs (CHF), which is also the functional currency of UBS Group AG and of UBS AG’s Head Office and its Swiss-based operations. These interim Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting.
In preparing these interim Financial Statements, the same accounting policies and methods of computation have been applied as in the UBS Group AG consolidated annual Financial Statements for the period ended 31 December 2016, except for the changes described in “Note 1 Basis of accounting” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of the first quarter 2017 report. These interim Financial Statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with UBS Group AG’s audited consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report 2016. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments were made for a fair presentation of UBS’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Preparation of these interim Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions are based on the best available information. Actual results in the future could differ from such estimates, and such differences may be material to the Financial Statements. Revisions to estimates, based on regular reviews, are recognized in the period in which they occur. For more information on areas of estimation uncertainty considered to require critical judgment, refer to “Note 1a Significant accounting policies” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of the Annual Report 2016.
IFRS 9, Financial Instruments
UBS will adopt IFRS 9, Financial
Instruments on 1 January 2018. The Group has made significant progress
during 2017 in developing an appropriate expected credit loss (ECL) methodology
and related reporting processes for all in-scope financial and non-financial
instruments, including loans, financial
guarantees and loan commitments. In addition, the changes driven by the IFRS 9
classification and measurement requirements have been confirmed. In the fourth
quarter of 2017, the Group will finalize the definition and implementation of
residual risk methodology approaches and governance frameworks,
and complete various parallel runs.
UBS continues to believe that the impact on the Group’s equity and regulatory capital on adoption of IFRS 9 will not be material based on its current expectations of the macroeconomic environment and of the composition of its portfolio as of 1 January 2018.
On 1 January 2018, UBS will also early adopt the Amendment to IFRS 9: Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation issued in October 2017, allowing UBS to continue to apply amortized cost accounting for Swiss private mortgages and corporate loans that provide for two-way compensation if a prepayment occurs.
UBS will not adopt the optional IFRS 9 hedge accounting requirements pending completion of the IASB’s project on macro hedge accounting strategies.
IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers
UBS will adopt IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers on 1 January 2018. IFRS 15 will not have a material impact on the Group’s financial statements. However, the timing of recognition of certain performance-based fees and the presentation in the income statement of certain revenues and expenses will change.
IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures
In October 2017, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures that clarified that entities must apply IFRS 9 in accounting for long-term interests in an associate or joint venture to which the equity method of accounting is not applied. The amendment is mandatorily effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. However, earlier application is available with the adoption of IFRS 9, Financial Instruments on 1 January 2018. UBS intends to early adopt this amendment, which is not expected to have a significant effect on the Group’s financial statements.

UBS‘s businesses are organized globally into five business divisions: Wealth Management, Wealth Management Americas, Personal & Corporate Banking, Asset Management and the Investment Bank, all of which are supported by Corporate Center. The five business divisions qualify as reportable segments for the purpose of segment reporting and, together with Corporate Center and its units, reflect the management structure of the Group. Corporate Center – Non-core and Legacy Portfolio is managed and reported as a separate reportable segment within Corporate Center. Refer to “Note 1a item 2 Segment reporting” and “Note 2 Segment reporting” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of the Annual Report 2016 for more information on the Group’s reporting segments.

1 Includes credits related to the UK bank levy of CHF 71 million for the first nine months of 2017, of which CHF 46 million was recorded in the second quarter of 2017 and CHF 25 million in the first quarter of 2017. 2 Reflects the net increase in provisions for litigation, regulatory and similar matters recognized in the income statement. The third quarter of 2017 included an indemnification payment of CHF 245 million to BTG Investments. Refer to Note 14 for more information. Also includes recoveries from third parties (third quarter of 2017: CHF 50 million; second quarter of 2017: CHF 1 million; third quarter of 2016: CHF 0 million). 3 Includes restructuring expenses. Refer to Note 16 for more information. |
The Group recognized a net income tax expense of CHF 272 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with a net income tax expense of CHF 49 million for the third quarter of 2016.
The third quarter 2017 net income tax expense included tax expenses of CHF 446 million in respect of current-year taxable profits. This included current tax expenses of CHF 230 million and deferred tax expenses of CHF 216 million, the latter mainly representing amortization of prior-year Swiss tax loss and temporary difference deferred tax assets (DTAs).
The third quarter 2017 net income tax expense also included a net upward revaluation of DTAs of CHF 174 million. This net benefit reflected an increase in US DTAs of CHF 224 million, partly offset by a net write-down of Swiss DTAs of CHF 50 million. The increase in US DTAs was primarily driven by higher profit forecasts for Wealth Management Americas. The write-down of Swiss DTAs primarily reflected a reduction in the effective tax rate at which the Swiss DTAs are measured, resulting from a change in the mix of forecast profits principally between operating income and dividends.
The interim Financial Statements have been prepared on the basis that UBS Limited is able to offset part of its taxable profits with prior-year tax losses transferred from UBS AG in 2014 and 2015. During 2016, the UK tax authorities indicated that they do not agree with this tax return filing position, but the authorities have recently advised UBS that they accept that a transfer can occur and will now proceed to examine the amount of losses to be transferred. UBS believes that any differences between the final transfer amount to be agreed with the UK tax authorities and the original tax return filing position will not be material to the financial statements.
In the fourth quarter of 2017, we expect to recognize a further net upward revaluation of DTAs, representing approximately 25% of the full-year revaluation, as adjusted for any further revaluations that may be required following the finalization of the business plans in the quarter.

1 Bifurcated embedded derivatives are presented on the same balance sheet lines as their host contracts and are excluded from this table. As of 30 September 2017, net bifurcated embedded derivative assets held at fair value totaling CHF 26 million (of which CHF 31 million were net Level 2 assets and CHF 5 million net Level 2 liabilities) were recognized on the balance sheet within Due to customers and Debt issued. As of 30 June 2017, net bifurcated embedded derivative assets held at fair value totaling CHF 31 million (of which CHF 36 million were net Level 2 assets and CHF 5 million net Level 2 liabilities) were recognized on the balance sheet within Due to customers and Debt issued. As of 31 December 2016, net bifurcated embedded derivative assets held at fair value totaling CHF 50 million (of which CHF 58 million were net Level 2 assets and CHF 8 million net Level 2 liabilities) were recognized on the balance sheet within Due to customers and Debt issued. 2 Financial assets held for trading exclude precious metals and other physical commodities. 3 Other assets and other liabilities primarily consist of assets held for sale as well as assets and liabilities of a disposal group held for sale, which are measured at the lower of their net carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. |
All financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value are categorized into one of three fair value hierarchy levels. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. For disclosure purposes, the level in the hierarchy within which the instrument is classified in its entirety is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the position’s fair value measurement:
– Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
– Level 2 – valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are, or are based on, observable market data; or
– Level 3 – valuation techniques for which significant inputs are not based on observable market data.

Day-1 reserves
The table below summarizes the changes in deferred day-1 profit or loss reserves during the respective period.
Deferred day-1 profit or loss related to financial instruments other than financial assets available for sale is released into Net trading income when pricing of equivalent products or the underlying parameters become observable or when the transaction is closed out.
Deferred day-1 profit or loss related to financial assets available for sale is released into Other comprehensive income when pricing of equivalent products or the underlying parameters become observable and is released into Other income when the assets are sold.

c) Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2
The amounts disclosed reflect transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for instruments that were held for the entire reporting period.
Assets totaling approximately CHF 0.7 billion, which were mainly comprised of financial assets designated at fair value and trading portfolio assets, primarily corporate and municipal bonds as well as investment fund units, were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 during the first nine months of 2017, generally due to increased levels of trading activity observed within the market. Liabilities transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 during the first nine months of 2017 were negligible.
Assets totaling approximately CHF 0.2 billion, which were mainly comprised of financial assets available for sale, largely government bills / bonds, were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the first nine months of 2017, generally due to diminished levels of trading activity observed in the market. Liabilities transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the first nine months of 2017 were negligible.

d) Level 3 instruments: valuation techniques and inputs
The table below presents material Level 3 assets and liabilities together with the valuation techniques used to measure fair value, the significant inputs used in the valuation technique that are considered unobservable and a range of values for those unobservable inputs.
The range of values represents the highest and lowest level input used in the valuation techniques. Therefore, the range does not reflect the level of uncertainty regarding a particular input, but rather the different underlying characteristics of the relevant assets and liabilities. The ranges and weighted averages will vary from period to period and from parameter to parameter based on characteristics of the instruments held at each balance sheet date. Further, the ranges and weighted averages of unobservable inputs may differ across other financial institutions due to the diversity of the products in each firm’s inventory.
The significant unobservable inputs disclosed in the table below are generally consistent with those included in “Note 22 Fair value measurement” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of the Annual Report 2016. A description of the potential effect that a change in each unobservable input in isolation may have on a fair value measurement, including information to facilitate an understanding of factors that give rise to the input ranges shown, is also provided in “Note 22 Fair value measurement” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of the Annual Report 2016.

1 The ranges of significant unobservable inputs are represented in points, percentages and basis points. Points are a percentage of par (e.g., 100 points would be 100% of par). 2 Weighted averages are provided for non-derivative financial instruments and were calculated by weighting inputs based on the fair values of the respective instruments. Weighted averages are not provided for inputs related to derivative contracts as this would not be meaningful. 3 Valuation techniques, significant unobservable inputs and the respective input ranges for issued debt instruments and over-the-counter debt instruments are the same as the equivalent derivative or structured financing instruments presented elsewhere in this table. |

e) Level 3 instruments: sensitivity to changes in unobservable input assumptions
The table below summarizes those financial assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 for which a change in one or more of the unobservable inputs to reflect reasonably possible alternative assumptions would change fair value significantly, and the estimated effect thereof.
The table shown presents the favorable and unfavorable effects for each class of financial assets and liabilities for which the potential change in fair value is considered significant. The sensitivity data presented represent an estimation of valuation uncertainty based on reasonably possible alternative values for Level 3 inputs at the balance sheet date and does not represent the estimated effect of stress scenarios. Typically, these financial assets and liabilities are sensitive to a combination of inputs from Levels 1 through 3. Although well-defined interdependencies may exist between Levels 1–2 and Level 3 parameters (e.g., between interest rates, which are generally Level 1 or Level 2, and prepayments, which are generally Level 3), these have not been incorporated in the table. Further, direct interrelationships between the Level 3 parameters are not a significant element of the valuation uncertainty.

f) Level 3 instruments: movements during the period
Significant changes in Level 3 instruments
The table on the following pages presents additional information about material Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Level 3 assets and liabilities may be hedged with instruments classified as Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, and, as a result, realized and unrealized gains and losses included in the table may not include the effect of related hedging activity. Furthermore, the realized and unrealized gains and losses presented within the table are not limited solely to those arising from Level 3 inputs, as valuations are generally derived from both observable and unobservable parameters.
Assets and liabilities transferred into or out of Level 3 are presented as if those assets or liabilities had been transferred at the beginning of the year.
Assets transferred into and out of Level 3 totaled CHF 0.7 billion and CHF 1.0 billion, respectively. Transfers into Level 3 were primarily comprised of equity / index contracts and equity instruments, and were mainly due to decreased observability of the respective equity volatility and market pricing inputs. Transfers out of Level 3 were primarily comprised of equity / index and credit derivative contracts, reflecting increased observability of the respective equity volatility and credit spread inputs.
Liabilities transferred into and out of Level 3 totaled CHF 0.8 billion and CHF 2.7 billion, respectively. Transfers into Level 3 were primarily comprised of equity-linked issued debt instruments, due to decreased observability of the respective equity volatility inputs used to determine the fair value of the options embedded in these structures. Transfers out of Level 3 were primarily comprised of equity-linked issued debt instruments, credit derivative and equity / index contracts resulting from changes in the availability of the observable equity volatility and credit spread inputs used to determine the fair value of the options embedded in these structures.

The fair values included in the table above were calculated for disclosure purposes only. The fair value valuation techniques and assumptions relate only to the fair value of UBS’s financial instruments not measured at fair value. Other institutions may use different methods and assumptions for their fair value estimation, and therefore such fair value disclosures cannot necessarily be compared from one financial institution to another.

1 In cases where replacement values are presented on a net basis on the balance sheet, the respective notional values of the netted replacement values are still presented on a gross basis. 2 Other notional values relate to derivatives that are cleared through either a central counterparty or an exchange. Many of these derivatives are either legally or economically settled on a daily basis. The residual unsettled fair value of these derivatives and the fair value of other derivatives that are presented on the balance sheet net of the corresponding cash margin, both within Cash collateral receivables on derivative instruments and Cash collateral payables on derivative instruments, were not material for all periods presented. 3 Changes in the fair value of purchased and sold non-derivative financial instruments between trade date and settlement date are recognized as replacement values. 4 Financial assets and liabilities are presented net on the balance sheet if UBS has the unconditional and legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts, both in the normal course of business and in the event of default, bankruptcy or insolvency of the entity and all of the counterparties, and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 5 Reflects the netting potential in accordance with enforceable master netting and similar arrangements where not all criteria for a net presentation on the balance sheet have been met.

1 Financial assets and liabilities are presented net on the balance sheet if UBS has the unconditional and legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts, both in the normal course of business and in the event of default, bankruptcy or insolvency of UBS or its counterparties, and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Effective 3 January 2017, interest rate swaps and credit derivatives transacted with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) were legally converted from the previous collateral model to a settlement model resulting in a derecognition of the associated assets and liabilities, with UBS no longer applying IAS 32 netting principles. Refer to Note 10 in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of the first quarter 2017 report for more information. 2 Reflects the netting potential in accordance with enforceable master netting and similar arrangements where not all criteria for a net presentation on the balance sheet have been met.

1 Comprises provisions for losses resulting from security risks and transaction processing risks. 2 Comprises provisions for losses resulting from legal, liability and compliance risks. 3 Consists of personnel-related restructuring provisions of CHF 80 million as of 30 September 2017 (30 June 2017: CHF 95 million; 31 December 2016: CHF 150 million) and provisions for onerous lease contracts of CHF 261 million as of 30 September 2017 (30 June 2017: CHF 290 million; 31 December 2016: CHF 348 million). 4 Consists of reinstatement costs for leasehold improvements of CHF 89 million as of 30 September 2017 (30 June 2017: CHF 88 million; 31 December 2016: CHF 87 million) and provisions for onerous lease contracts of CHF 43 million as of 30 September 2017 (30 June 2017: CHF 45 million; 31 December 2016: CHF 55 million). 5 Includes provisions for sabbatical and anniversary awards as well as provisions for severance that are not part of restructuring provisions. |
Restructuring provisions primarily relate to onerous lease contracts and severance payments. The use of onerous lease provisions is driven by the maturities of the underlying lease contracts. Severance-related provisions are used within a short time period, usually within six months, but potential changes in amount may be triggered when natural staff attrition reduces the number of people affected by a restructuring and therefore the estimated costs.
Information on provisions and contingent liabilities in respect of litigation, regulatory and similar matters, as a class, is included in Note 14b. There are no material contingent liabilities associated with the other classes of provisions.
b) Litigation, regulatory and similar matters
The Group operates in a legal and regulatory environment that exposes it to significant litigation and similar risks arising from disputes and regulatory proceedings. As a result, UBS (which for purposes of this Note may refer to UBS Group AG and / or one or more of its subsidiaries, as applicable) is involved in various disputes and legal proceedings, including litigation, arbitration, and regulatory and criminal investigations.
Such matters are subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome and the timing of resolution are often difficult to predict, particularly in the earlier stages of a case. There are also situations where the Group may enter into a settlement agreement. This may occur in order to avoid the expense, management distraction or reputational implications of continuing to contest liability, even for those matters for which the Group believes it should be exonerated. The uncertainties inherent in all such matters affect the amount and timing of any potential outflows for both matters with respect to which provisions have been established and other contingent liabilities. The Group makes provisions for such matters brought against it when, in the opinion of management after seeking legal advice, it is more likely than not that the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required, and the amount can be reliably estimated. Where these factors are otherwise satisfied, a provision may be established for claims that have not yet been asserted against the Group, but are nevertheless expected to be, based on the Group’s experience with similar asserted claims. If any of those conditions is not met, such matters result in contingent liabilities. If the amount of an obligation cannot be reliably estimated, a liability exists that is not recognized even if an outflow of resources is probable. Accordingly, no provision is established even if the potential outflow of resources with respect to such matters could be significant.
Specific litigation, regulatory and other matters are described below, including all such matters that management considers to be material and others that management believes to be of significance due to potential financial, reputational and other effects. The amount of damages claimed, the size of a transaction or other information is provided where available and appropriate in order to assist users in considering the magnitude of potential exposures.

Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities (continued)
In the case of certain matters below, we state that we have established a provision, and for the other matters, we make no such statement. When we make this statement and we expect disclosure of the amount of a provision to prejudice seriously our position with other parties in the matter because it would reveal what UBS believes to be the probable and reliably estimable outflow, we do not disclose that amount. In some cases we are subject to confidentiality obligations that preclude such disclosure. With respect to the matters for which we do not state whether we have established a provision, either (a) we have not established a provision, in which case the matter is treated as a contingent liability under the applicable accounting standard, or (b) we have established a provision but expect disclosure of that fact to prejudice seriously our position with other parties in the matter because it would reveal the fact that UBS believes an outflow of resources to be probable and reliably estimable.
With respect to certain litigation, regulatory and similar matters for which we have established provisions, we are able to estimate the expected timing of outflows. However, the aggregate amount of the expected outflows for those matters for which we are able to estimate expected timing is immaterial relative to our current and expected levels of liquidity over the relevant time periods.
The aggregate amount provisioned for litigation, regulatory and similar matters as a class is disclosed in Note 14a above. It is not practicable to provide an aggregate estimate of liability for our litigation, regulatory and similar matters as a class of contingent liabilities. Doing so would require us to provide speculative legal assessments as to claims and proceedings that involve unique fact patterns or novel legal theories, that have not yet been initiated or are at early stages of adjudication, or as to which alleged damages have not been quantified by the claimants. Although we therefore cannot provide a numerical estimate of the future losses that could arise from litigation, regulatory and similar matters, we believe that the aggregate amount of possible future losses from this class that are more than remote substantially exceeds the level of current provisions. Litigation, regulatory and similar matters may also result in non-monetary penalties and consequences. For example, the Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) described in item 5 of this Note, which we entered into with the US Department of Justice (DOJ), Criminal Division, Fraud Section in connection with our submissions of benchmark interest rates, including, among others, the British Bankers’ Association London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), was terminated by the DOJ based on its determination that we had committed a US crime in relation to foreign exchange matters. As a consequence, UBS AG pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud for conduct in the LIBOR matter, paid a USD 203 million fine and is subject to a three-year term of probation. A guilty plea to, or conviction of, a crime (including as a result of termination of the NPA) could have material consequences for UBS. Resolution of regulatory proceedings may require us to obtain waivers of regulatory disqualifications to maintain certain operations, may entitle regulatory authorities to limit, suspend or terminate licenses and regulatory authorizations, and may permit financial market utilities to limit, suspend or terminate our participation in such utilities. Failure to obtain such waivers, or any limitation, suspension or termination of licenses, authorizations or participations, could have material consequences for UBS.
The risk of loss associated with litigation, regulatory and similar matters is a component of operational risk for purposes of determining our capital requirements. Information concerning our capital requirements and the calculation of operational risk for this purpose is included in the “Capital management” section of this report.

Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities (continued)
1. Inquiries regarding cross-border wealth management businesses
Tax and regulatory authorities in a number of countries have made inquiries, served requests for information or examined employees located in their respective jurisdictions relating to the cross-border wealth management services provided by UBS and other financial institutions. It is possible that implementation of automatic tax information exchange and other measures relating to cross-border provision of financial services could give rise to further inquiries in the future. UBS has received disclosure orders from the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (FTA) to transfer information based on requests for international administrative assistance in tax matters. The requests concern a number of UBS account numbers pertaining to current and former clients and are based on data from 2006 and 2008. UBS has taken steps to inform affected clients about the administrative assistance proceedings and their procedural rights, including the right to appeal. The requests are based on data received from the German authorities, who seized certain data related to UBS clients booked in Switzerland during their investigations and have apparently shared this data with other European countries. UBS expects additional countries to file similar requests.
The Swiss Federal Administrative Court ruled in 2016 that in the administrative assistance proceedings related to a French bulk request, UBS has the right to appeal all final FTA client data disclosure orders.
Since 2013, UBS (France) S.A. and UBS AG and certain former employees have been under investigation in France for alleged complicity in having illicitly solicited clients on French territory and regarding the laundering of proceeds of tax fraud and of banking and financial solicitation by unauthorized persons. In connection with this investigation, the investigating judges ordered UBS AG to provide bail (“caution”) of EUR 1.1 billion and UBS (France) S.A. to post bail of EUR 40 million, which was reduced on appeal to EUR 10 million.
In February 2016, the investigating judges notified UBS AG and UBS (France) S.A. that they have closed their investigation. In July 2016, UBS AG and UBS (France) S.A. received the National Financial Prosecutor’s recommendation (“réquisitoire”). In March 2017, the investigating judges issued the trial order (“ordonnance de renvoi”) that charges UBS AG and UBS (France) S.A., as well as various former employees, with illicit solicitation of clients on French territory and with participation in the laundering of the proceeds of tax fraud, and which transfers the case to court. The trial schedule has not yet been announced.
In 2016, UBS was notified by the Belgian investigating judge that it is under formal investigation (“inculpé”) regarding the laundering of proceeds of tax fraud and of banking, financial solicitation by unauthorized persons and serious tax fraud.
In 2015, UBS received inquiries from the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York and from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which are investigating potential sales to US persons of bearer bonds and other unregistered securities in possible violation of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (TEFRA) and the registration requirements of the US securities laws. UBS is cooperating with the authorities in these investigations.
UBS has, and reportedly numerous other financial institutions have, received inquiries from authorities concerning accounts relating to the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) and other constituent soccer associations and related persons and entities. UBS is cooperating with authorities in these inquiries.
Our balance sheet at 30 September 2017 reflected provisions with respect to matters described in this item 1 in an amount that UBS believes to be appropriate under the applicable accounting standard. As in the case of other matters for which we have established provisions, the future outflow of resources in respect of such matters cannot be determined with certainty based on currently available information and accordingly may ultimately prove to be substantially greater (or may be less) than the provision that we have recognized.
2. Claims related to sales of residential mortgage-backed securities and mortgages
From 2002 through 2007, prior to the crisis in the US residential loan market, UBS was a substantial issuer and underwriter of US residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) and was a purchaser and seller of US residential mortgages. A subsidiary of UBS, UBS Real Estate Securities Inc. (UBS RESI), acquired pools of residential mortgage loans from originators and (through an affiliate) deposited them into securitization trusts. In this manner, from 2004 through 2007, UBS RESI sponsored approximately USD 80 billion in RMBS, based on the original principal balances of the securities issued.
102
Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities (continued)
UBS RESI also sold pools of loans acquired from originators to third-party purchasers. These whole loan sales during the period 2004 through 2007 totaled approximately USD 19 billion in original principal balance.
UBS was not a significant originator of US residential loans. A branch of UBS originated approximately USD 1.5 billion in US residential mortgage loans during the period in which it was active from 2006 to 2008, and securitized less than half of these loans.
Lawsuits related to
contractual representations and warranties concerning mortgages and RMBS: When UBS acted as an RMBS sponsor or mortgage seller, it generally
made
certain representations relating to the characteristics of the underlying
loans. In the event of a material breach of these representations, UBS was in
certain circumstances contractually obligated to repurchase the loans to which
the representations related or to indemnify certain parties against losses. In
2012, certain RMBS trusts filed an action (Trustee Suit) in the US District
Court for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) seeking to enforce UBS
RESI’s obligation to repurchase loans in the collateral pools for three RMBS
securitizations with an original principal balance of approximately USD 2
billion. Approximately 9,000 loans were at issue in a bench trial in the SDNY
in 2016, following which the court issued an order ruling on numerous legal and
factual issues and applying those rulings to 20 exemplar loans. The court
further ordered that a lead master be appointed to apply the court’s rulings to
the loans that remain at issue following the trial. In October 2017, UBS
and certain holders of the RMBS in the Trustee Suit entered into an agreement
under which UBS has agreed to pay an aggregate of USD 543 million into the
relevant RMBS trusts, plus certain attorneys’ fees. A portion of these
settlement costs will be borne by other parties that indemnified UBS. The
agreement is subject to the trustee for the RMBS trusts becoming a party
thereto. The security holders who are parties to the settlement agreement have
requested that the trustee conduct a vote of security holders to approve or
reject the settlement, and each of these security holders has agreed to vote
its securities in favor of the settlement. Giving effect to this
settlement, UBS considers claims relating to substantially all loan repurchase demands
to be resolved, and believes that new demands to repurchase US residential
mortgage loans are time-barred under a decision rendered by the New York Court
of Appeals.
Mortgage-related
regulatory matters: In 2014, UBS received a
subpoena from the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York
issued pursuant to the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement
Act of 1989 (FIRREA), which seeks documents and information related to UBS’s
RMBS
business from 2005 through 2007. In 2015, the Eastern District
of New York identified a number of transactions that are the focus of their
inquiry, and has subsequently provided a revised list of transactions. UBS has
provided and continues to provide information. UBS continues to respond to the
FIRREA subpoena and to subpoenas from the New York State Attorney General and
other state attorneys general relating to its RMBS business. In addition, UBS
has also been responding to inquiries from both the Special Inspector General
for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (SIGTARP) (who is working in conjunction
with the US Attorney’s Office for Connecticut and the DOJ) and the SEC relating
to trading practices in connection with purchases and sales of mortgage-backed
securities in the secondary market from 2009 through 2014. UBS is cooperating
with the authorities in these matters.
Our balance sheet at 30 September 2017 reflected a provision with respect to matters described in this item 2 in an amount that UBS believes to be appropriate under the applicable accounting standard. As in the case of other matters for which we have established provisions, the future outflow of resources in respect of this matter cannot be determined with certainty based on currently available information and accordingly may ultimately prove to be substantially greater (or may be less) than the provision that we have recognized.
3. Madoff
In relation to the Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC (BMIS) investment fraud, UBS AG, UBS (Luxembourg) S.A. (now UBS Europe SE, Luxembourg branch) and certain other UBS subsidiaries have been subject to inquiries by a number of regulators, including the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) and the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF). Those inquiries concerned two third-party funds established under Luxembourg law, substantially all assets of which were with BMIS, as well as certain funds established in offshore jurisdictions with either direct or indirect exposure to BMIS. These funds now face severe losses, and the Luxembourg funds are in liquidation. The last reported net asset value of the two Luxembourg funds before revelation of the Madoff scheme was approximately USD 1.7 billion in the aggregate although that figure likely includes fictitious profit reported by BMIS. The documentation establishing both funds identifies UBS entities in various roles, including custodian, administrator, manager, distributor and promoter, and indicates that UBS employees serve as board members. UBS Europe SE, Luxembourg branch, and certain other UBS subsidiaries are responding to inquiries by Luxembourg investigating authorities, without, however, being named as parties in those investigations.
103
Notes to the UBS Group AG interim consolidated financial statements (unaudited)
Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities (continued)
In 2009 and 2010, the liquidators of the two Luxembourg funds filed claims on behalf of the funds against UBS entities, non-UBS entities and certain individuals, including current and former UBS employees. The amounts claimed are approximately EUR 890 million and EUR 305 million, respectively. The liquidators have filed supplementary claims for amounts that the funds may possibly be held liable to pay the trustee for the liquidation of BMIS (BMIS Trustee). These amounts claimed by the liquidator are approximately EUR 564 million and EUR 370 million, respectively.
In addition, a large number of alleged beneficiaries have filed claims against UBS entities (and non-UBS entities) for purported losses relating to the Madoff scheme. The majority of these cases are pending in Luxembourg, where appeals were filed by the claimants against the 2010 decisions of the court in which the claims in a number of test cases were held to be inadmissible. The Luxembourg Court of Appeal has found in favor of UBS and dismissed all of these test case appeals, confirming that the claims are inadmissible. The Luxembourg Supreme Court has also dismissed a further appeal brought by the claimant in one of the test cases.
In the US, the BMIS Trustee filed claims in 2010 against UBS entities, among others, in relation to the two Luxembourg funds and one of the offshore funds. The total amount claimed against all defendants in these actions was not less than USD 2 billion. The SDNY dismissed all of the BMIS Trustee’s claims other than claims for recovery of fraudulent conveyances and preference payments that were allegedly transferred to UBS on the ground that the BMIS Trustee lacks standing to bring such claims. The SDNY decision was affirmed on appeal and is now final. In 2016, the bankruptcy court issued an opinion dismissing the remaining claims for recovery of transfers of fraudulent conveyances and preference payments on the ground that the US Bankruptcy Code does not apply to transfers that occurred outside the US. The BMIS Trustee has appealed that ruling. In 2014, several claims, including a purported class action, were filed in the US by BMIS customers against UBS entities, asserting claims similar to the ones made by the BMIS Trustee, seeking unspecified damages. One claim was voluntarily withdrawn by the plaintiff. In 2015, the SDNY dismissed the two remaining claims on the basis that the New York courts did not have jurisdiction to hear the claims against the UBS entities. The plaintiff in one of those claims has appealed the dismissal.
In Germany, certain clients of UBS are exposed to Madoff-managed positions through third-party funds and funds administered by UBS entities in Germany. A small number of claims have been filed with respect to such funds. In 2015, a court of appeal ordered UBS to pay EUR 49 million, plus interest of approximately EUR 15.3 million.
4. Puerto Rico
Declines since 2013 in the market prices of Puerto Rico municipal bonds and of closed-end funds (funds) that are sole-managed and co-managed by UBS Trust Company of Puerto Rico and distributed by UBS Financial Services Incorporated of Puerto Rico (UBS PR) have led to multiple regulatory inquiries, as well as customer complaints and arbitrations with aggregate claimed damages of USD 2.2 billion, of which claims with aggregate claimed damages of USD 1.2 billion have been resolved through settlements, arbitration or withdrawal of the claim. The claims are filed by clients in Puerto Rico who own the funds or Puerto Rico municipal bonds and / or who used their UBS account assets as collateral for UBS non-purpose loans; customer complaint and arbitration allegations include fraud, misrepresentation and unsuitability of the funds and of the loans. A shareholder derivative action was filed in 2014 against various UBS entities and current and certain former directors of the funds, alleging hundreds of millions of US dollars in losses in the funds. In 2015, defendants’ motion to dismiss was denied. Defendants’ requests for permission to appeal that ruling were denied by the Puerto Rico Court of Appeals and the Puerto Rico Supreme Court. In 2014, a federal class action complaint also was filed against various UBS entities, certain members of UBS PR senior management and the co-manager of certain of the funds, seeking damages for investor losses in the funds during the period from May 2008 through May 2014. In 2016, defendants’ motion to dismiss was granted in part and denied in part. In 2015, a class action was filed in Puerto Rico state court against UBS PR seeking equitable relief in the form of a stay of any effort by UBS PR to collect on non-purpose loans it acquired from UBS Bank USA in December 2013 based on plaintiffs’ allegation that the loans are not valid. The trial court denied defendant’s motion to dismiss the action based on a forum selection clause in the loan agreements. The Puerto Rico Supreme Court reversed that decision and remanded the case back to the trial court for reconsideration.
In 2014, UBS reached a settlement with the Office of the Commissioner of Financial Institutions for the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (OCFI) in connection with OCFI’s examination of UBS’s operations from January 2006 through September 2013, pursuant to which UBS is paying up to an aggregate of USD 7.7 million in investor education contributions and restitution.
In 2015, the SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) announced settlements with UBS PR of their separate investigations stemming from the 2013 market events. Without admitting or denying the findings in either matter, UBS PR agreed in the SEC settlement to pay USD 15 million and USD 18.5 million in the FINRA matter. We also understand that the DOJ is conducting a criminal inquiry into the impermissible reinvestment of non-purpose loan proceeds. We are cooperating with the authorities in this inquiry.
104
Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities (continued)
In 2011, a purported derivative action was filed on behalf of the Employee Retirement System of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (System) against over 40 defendants, including UBS PR, which was named in connection with its underwriting and consulting services. Plaintiffs alleged that defendants violated their purported fiduciary duties and contractual obligations in connection with the issuance and underwriting of USD 3 billion of bonds by the System in 2008 and sought damages of over USD 800 million. In December 2016, the court granted the System’s request to join the action as a plaintiff, but ordered that plaintiffs must file an amended complaint. In March 2017, the court denied defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint.
Also, in 2013, an SEC Administrative Law Judge dismissed a case brought by the SEC against two UBS executives, finding no violations. The charges had stemmed from the SEC’s investigation of UBS’s sale of closed-end funds in 2008 and 2009, which UBS settled in 2012. Beginning in 2012, two federal class action complaints, which were subsequently consolidated, were filed against various UBS entities, certain of the funds and certain members of UBS PR senior management, seeking damages for investor losses in the funds during the period from January 2008 through May 2012 based on allegations similar to those in the SEC action. In 2016, the court denied plaintiffs’ motion for class certification. In March 2017, the US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit denied plaintiffs’ petition seeking permission to bring an interlocutory appeal challenging the denial of their motion for class certification.
In 2015, certain agencies and public corporations of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (Commonwealth) defaulted on certain interest payments, in 2016, the Commonwealth defaulted on payments on its general obligation debt (GO Bonds), and in 2017 the Commonwealth defaulted on payments on its debt backed by the Commonwealth’s Sales and Use Tax (COFINA Bonds) as well as on bonds issued by the Commonwealth’s Employee Retirement System (ERS Bonds). The funds hold significant amounts of both COFINA and ERS Bonds and the defaults on interest payments are expected to adversely affect dividends from the funds. Executive orders of the Governor that have diverted funds to pay for essential services instead of debt payments and stayed any action to enforce creditors’ rights on the Puerto Rico bonds continue to be in effect. In 2016, US federal legislation created an oversight board with power to oversee Puerto Rico’s finances and to restructure its debt. The oversight board is authorized to impose, and has imposed, a stay on exercise of creditors’ rights. In May and June 2017, the oversight board placed the GO, COFINA and ERS Bonds, among others, into a bankruptcy-like proceeding under the supervision of a Federal District Judge as authorized by the oversight board’s enabling statute. These events, further defaults, any further legislative action to create a legal means of restructuring Commonwealth obligations or to impose additional oversight on the Commonwealth’s finances, or any restructuring of the Commonwealth’s obligations may increase the number of claims against UBS concerning Puerto Rico securities, as well as potential damages sought.
Our balance sheet at 30 September 2017 reflected provisions with respect to matters described in this item 4 in amounts that UBS believes to be appropriate under the applicable accounting standard. As in the case of other matters for which we have established provisions, the future outflow of resources in respect of such matters cannot be determined with certainty based on currently available information and accordingly may ultimately prove to be substantially greater (or may be less) than the provisions that we have recognized.
5. Foreign exchange, LIBOR and benchmark rates, and other trading practices
Foreign exchange-related regulatory matters: Following an initial media report in 2013 of widespread irregularities in the foreign exchange markets, UBS immediately commenced an internal review of its foreign exchange business, which includes our precious metals and related structured products businesses. Numerous authorities commenced investigations concerning possible manipulation of foreign exchange markets and precious metals prices. In 2014 and 2015, UBS reached settlements with the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in connection with their foreign exchange investigations, FINMA issued an order concluding its formal proceedings relating to UBS’s foreign exchange and precious metals businesses, and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve Board) and the Connecticut Department of Banking issued a Cease and Desist Order and assessed monetary penalties to UBS AG. In addition, the DOJ’s Criminal Division (Criminal Division) terminated the December 2012 Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) with UBS AG related to UBS’s submissions of benchmark interest rates and UBS AG pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud, paid a fine and is subject to probation through January 2020. UBS has ongoing obligations to cooperate with these authorities and to undertake certain remediation. UBS has also been granted conditional immunity by the Antitrust Division of the DOJ (Antitrust Division) and by authorities in other jurisdictions in connection with potential competition law violations relating to foreign exchange and precious metals businesses. Refer to Note 20b in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of the Annual Report 2016 for more information on regulatory actions related to foreign exchange and precious metals and grants of conditional immunity or leniency. Investigations relating to foreign exchange and precious metals matters by numerous authorities, including the CFTC, remain ongoing notwithstanding these resolutions.

Foreign exchange-related civil litigation: Putative class actions have been filed since 2013 in US federal courts and in other jurisdictions against UBS and other banks on behalf of putative classes of persons who engaged in foreign currency transactions with any of the defendant banks. They allege collusion by the defendants and assert claims under the antitrust laws and for unjust enrichment. In 2015, additional putative class actions were filed in federal court in New York against UBS and other banks on behalf of a putative class of persons who entered into or held any foreign exchange futures contracts and options on foreign exchange futures contracts since January 2003. The complaints assert claims under the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) and the US antitrust laws. In 2015, a consolidated complaint was filed on behalf of both putative classes of persons covered by the US federal court class actions described above. UBS has entered into a settlement agreement that would resolve all of these US federal court class actions. The agreement, which has been preliminarily approved by the court and is subject to final court approval, requires, among other things, that UBS pay an aggregate of USD 141 million and provide cooperation to the settlement classes.
A putative class action has been filed in federal court in New York against UBS and other banks on behalf of participants, beneficiaries and named fiduciaries of plans qualified under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) for whom a defendant bank provided foreign currency exchange transactional services, exercised discretionary authority or discretionary control over management of such ERISA plan, or authorized or permitted the execution of any foreign currency exchange transactional services involving such plan’s assets. The complaint asserts claims under ERISA. The parties filed a stipulation to dismiss the case with prejudice. The plaintiffs have appealed the dismissal. The appeals court heard oral argument in June 2017.
In 2015, a putative class action was filed in federal court against UBS and numerous other banks on behalf of a putative class of persons and businesses in the US who directly purchased foreign currency from the defendants and their co-conspirators for their own end use. That action has been transferred to federal court in New York. In March 2017, the court granted UBS’s (and the other banks’) motions to dismiss the complaint. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in August 2017.
In 2016, a putative class action was filed in federal court in New York against UBS and numerous other banks on behalf of a putative class of persons and entities who had indirectly purchased FX instruments from a defendant or co-conspirator in the US. The complaint asserts claims under federal and state antitrust laws. In response to defendants’ motion to dismiss, plaintiffs agreed to dismiss their complaint. In April and June 2017, two new putative class actions were filed in federal court in New York against UBS and numerous other banks on behalf of different proposed classes of indirect purchasers of currency, and a consolidated complaint was filed in June 2017.
In 2015, UBS was added to putative class actions pending against other banks in federal court in New York and other jurisdictions on behalf of putative classes of persons who had bought or sold physical precious metals and various precious metal products and derivatives. The complaints in these lawsuits assert claims under the antitrust laws and the CEA, and other claims. In October 2016, the court in New York granted UBS’s motions to dismiss the putative class actions relating to gold and silver. Plaintiffs in those cases sought to amend their complaints to add new allegations about UBS, which the court granted. The plaintiffs filed their amended complaints in June 2017. In March 2017, the court in New York granted UBS’s motion to dismiss the platinum and palladium action. In May 2017, plaintiffs in the platinum and palladium action filed an amended complaint that did not allege claims against UBS.
LIBOR and other benchmark-related regulatory matters: Numerous government agencies, including the SEC, the CFTC, the DOJ, the FCA, the UK Serious Fraud Office (SFO), the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), FINMA, various state attorneys general in the US and competition authorities in various jurisdictions have conducted or are continuing to conduct investigations regarding potential improper attempts by UBS, among others, to manipulate LIBOR and other benchmark rates at certain times. In 2012, UBS reached settlements relating to benchmark interest rates with the FSA, the CFTC and the Criminal Division of the DOJ, and FINMA issued an order in its proceedings with respect to UBS relating to benchmark interest rates. In addition, UBS entered into settlements with the European Commission (EC) and with the Swiss Competition Commission (WEKO) regarding its investigation of bid-ask spreads in connection with Swiss franc interest rate derivatives. UBS has ongoing obligations to cooperate with the authorities with whom we have reached resolutions and to undertake certain remediation with respect to benchmark interest rate submissions. UBS has been granted conditional leniency or conditional immunity from authorities in certain jurisdictions, including the Antitrust Division of the DOJ and WEKO, in connection with potential antitrust or competition law violations related to certain rates. However, UBS has not reached a final settlement with WEKO as the Secretariat of WEKO has asserted that UBS does not qualify for full immunity. Refer to Note 20b in the “Consolidated financial statements” section of the Annual Report 2016 for more information on regulatory actions relating to benchmark rates and grants of conditional immunity or leniency. Investigations by certain governmental authorities remain ongoing notwithstanding these resolutions.
106
Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities (continued)
LIBOR and other benchmark-related civil litigation: A number of putative class actions and other actions are pending in the federal courts in New York against UBS and numerous other banks on behalf of parties who transacted in certain interest rate benchmark-based derivatives. Also pending in the US and in other jurisdictions are actions asserting losses related to various products whose interest rates were linked to LIBOR and other benchmarks, including adjustable rate mortgages, preferred and debt securities, bonds pledged as collateral, loans, depository accounts, investments and other interest-bearing instruments. All of the complaints allege manipulation, through various means, of various benchmark interest rates, including USD LIBOR, Euroyen TIBOR, Yen LIBOR, EURIBOR, CHF LIBOR, GBP LIBOR, USD and SGD SIBOR and SOR, Australian BBSW and USD ISDAFIX, and seek unspecified compensatory and other damages under varying legal theories.
In 2013, the US district court in the USD
LIBOR action dismissed the federal antitrust and racketeering claims of certain
USD LIBOR plaintiffs and a portion of their claims brought under the CEA and
state common law. Certain plaintiffs appealed the decision to the Second
Circuit, which, in 2016, vacated the district court’s ruling finding no antitrust
injury and remanded the case back to the district court for a further
determination on whether plaintiffs have antitrust standing. In December 2016,
the district court again dismissed plaintiffs’ antitrust claims, this time for
lack of personal jurisdiction over UBS and other foreign banks. In 2014, the
court in one of the Euroyen TIBOR lawsuits dismissed certain of the plaintiff’s
claims, including federal antitrust claims. In 2015, the same court dismissed
plaintiff’s federal racketeering claims and affirmed its previous dismissal of
plaintiff’s antitrust claims. In 2017, the court also dismissed the other Yen
LIBOR / Euroyen TIBOR action in its entirety on standing grounds, as did the
court in the CHF LIBOR action. Also in 2017, the courts in the EURIBOR and the
SIBOR and SOR lawsuits dismissed the cases as to UBS and certain other foreign
defendants for lack of personal jurisdiction. UBS and other defendants in other
lawsuits including those related to GBP LIBOR and Australian BBSW have filed motions
to dismiss. In 2016, UBS entered into an agreement with representatives of a
class of bondholders to settle their USD LIBOR class action. The agreement has
received preliminary court approval and remains subject to final approval.
Since 2014, putative class actions have been filed in federal court in New York
and New Jersey against UBS and other financial institutions, among others, on
behalf of parties who entered into interest rate derivative transactions linked
to ISDAFIX. The complaints, which have since been consolidated into an amended
complaint, allege that the defendants conspired to manipulate ISDAFIX rates
from January 2006 through June 2013, in violation of US antitrust laws and
certain state laws, and seek unspecified compensatory damages, including treble
damages. On 12 July 2017, the court overseeing the ISDAFIX class action
preliminarily approved a settlement agreement between UBS AG and the
plaintiffs, whereby UBS AG agreed to pay USD 14 million to settle the case in
its entirety.
Government bonds: Putative class actions have been filed in US federal courts against UBS and other banks on behalf of persons who participated in markets for US Treasury securities since 2007. The complaints generally allege that the banks colluded with respect to, and manipulated prices of, US Treasury securities sold at auction. They assert claims under the antitrust laws and the CEA and for unjust enrichment. The cases have been consolidated in the SDNY. Following filing of these complaints, UBS and reportedly other banks are responding to investigations and requests for information from various authorities regarding US Treasury securities and other government bond trading practices. As a result of its review to date, UBS has taken appropriate action.
With respect to additional matters and jurisdictions not encompassed by the settlements and order referred to above, our balance sheet at 30 September 2017 reflected a provision in an amount that UBS believes to be appropriate under the applicable accounting standard. As in the case of other matters for which we have established provisions, the future outflow of resources in respect of such matters cannot be determined with certainty based on currently available information and accordingly may ultimately prove to be substantially greater (or may be less) than the provision that we have recognized.
6. Swiss retrocessions
The Federal Supreme Court of Switzerland ruled in 2012, in a test case against UBS, that distribution fees paid to a firm for distributing third-party and intra-group investment funds and structured products must be disclosed and surrendered to clients who have entered into a discretionary mandate agreement with the firm, absent a valid waiver.
FINMA has issued a supervisory note to all Swiss banks in response to the Supreme Court decision. UBS has met the FINMA requirements and has notified all potentially affected clients.
The Supreme Court decision has resulted, and may continue to result, in a number of client requests for UBS to disclose and potentially surrender retrocessions. Client requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis. Considerations taken into account when assessing these cases include, among other things, the existence of a discretionary mandate and whether or not the client documentation contained a valid waiver with respect to distribution fees.
107
Notes to the UBS Group AG interim consolidated financial statements (unaudited)
Note 14 Provisions and contingent liabilities (continued)
Our balance sheet at 30 September 2017 reflected a provision with respect to matters described in this item 6 in an amount that UBS believes to be appropriate under the applicable accounting standard. The ultimate exposure will depend on client requests and the resolution thereof, factors that are difficult to predict and assess. Hence, as in the case of other matters for which we have established provisions, the future outflow of resources in respect of such matters cannot be determined with certainty based on currently available information and accordingly may ultimately prove to be substantially greater (or may be less) than the provision that we have recognized.
7. Banco UBS Pactual tax indemnity
Pursuant to the 2009 sale of Banco UBS Pactual S.A. (Pactual) by UBS to BTG Investments, LP (BTG), BTG has submitted contractual indemnification claims. The claims pertain principally to several tax assessments issued by the Brazilian tax authorities against Pactual relating to the period from December 2006 through March 2009, when UBS owned Pactual. These assessments are being challenged in administrative and judicial proceedings. In August 2017, UBS and BTG agreed to resolve the largest indemnification claim (UBS’s portion of which was approximately BRL 2 billion) relating to a tax assessment that had disallowed goodwill amortization deductions. In connection with this resolution, UBS paid CHF 245 million to BTG, which then submitted the underlying tax assessment for resolution in a Brazilian tax amnesty program. Of the remaining BRL 732 million in indemnification claims, administrative courts have ruled in favor of BTG in respect of BRL 455 million of assessments related to profit-sharing plans, with the remainder of the assessments pending at various levels of the administrative or judicial court system.
8. Investigation of UBS’s role in initial public offerings in Hong Kong
The Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has been conducting investigations into UBS’s role as a sponsor of certain initial public offerings listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. In 2016, the SFC informed UBS that it intends to commence action against UBS and certain UBS employees with respect to sponsorship work in those offerings, which could result in financial ramifications for UBS, including fines and obligations to pay investor compensation, and suspension of UBS’s ability to provide corporate finance advisory services in Hong Kong for a period of time.
In January 2017, a writ was filed by the SFC with Hong Kong’s High Court in which UBS was named as one of six defendants from whom the SFC was seeking investor compensation in an unspecified amount for losses incurred by certain shareholders of China Forestry Holdings Company Limited, for whom UBS acted as a sponsor in connection with their 2009 listing application. In August 2017, the SFC filed an amended writ that did not name UBS and some of the other defendants, thereby discontinuing this action against UBS.

Restructuring expenses
Restructuring expenses arise from
programs that materially change either the scope of business that the Group
engages in or the manner in which such business is conducted. Restructuring
expenses are necessary to effect such programs
and include items such as severance and other personnel-related expenses,
duplicate headcount costs, impairment and accelerated depreciation of assets,
contract termination costs, consulting fees, and related infrastructure and
system costs. These costs are presented in the income statement according to
the underlying nature of the expense.

1 Monthly income statement items of foreign operations with a functional currency other than Swiss franc are translated with month-end rates into Swiss francs. Disclosed average rates for a quarter represent an average of three month-end rates, weighted according to the income and expense volumes of all foreign operations of the Group with the same functional currency for each month. Weighted average rates for individual business divisions may deviate from the weighted average rates for the Group. |
Note 18 Events after the reporting period
Sale of subsidiaries and businesses
On 1 October 2017, UBS completed the sale of Asset Management’s fund administration servicing units in Luxembourg and Switzerland to Northern Trust, resulting in a pre-tax gain on sale of approximately CHF 140 million. This gain will be recognized in the income statement within Asset Management in the fourth quarter of 2017.

UBS
AG interim consolidated financial
information (unaudited)
This section contains a comparison of selected financial and capital information between UBS Group AG consolidated and UBS AG consolidated. Refer to “Quarterly reporting” at www.ubs.com/investors for the interim consolidated financial statements of UBS AG, which will be published on 1 November 2017.
Comparison UBS Group AG consolidated
versus
UBS AG consolidated
The accounting policies applied under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) to both UBS Group AG and UBS AG consolidated financial statements are identical. However, there are certain scope and presentation differences as noted below:
– Assets, liabilities, operating income, operating expenses and operating profit before tax relating to UBS Group AG and its directly held subsidiaries, including UBS Business Solutions AG, are reflected in the consolidated financial statements of UBS Group AG but not of UBS AG. UBS AG’s assets, liabilities, operating income and operating expenses related to transactions with UBS Group AG and its directly held subsidiaries are not subject to elimination in the UBS AG consolidated financial statements, but are eliminated in the UBS Group AG consolidated financial statements.
– Preferred notes issued by UBS AG are presented in the consolidated UBS Group AG balance sheet as equity attributable to non-controlling interests, while in the consolidated UBS AG balance sheet, these preferred notes are required to be presented as equity attributable to preferred noteholders.
– Fully applied going concern capital of UBS AG consolidated was lower than fully applied going concern capital of UBS Group AG consolidated as of 30 September 2017, reflecting lower additional tier 1 (AT1) capital, partly offset by higher common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital. The difference in CET1 capital was primarily due to compensation-related regulatory capital accruals, liabilities and capital instruments that are reflected on the level of UBS Group AG. The difference in AT1 capital relates to the issuances of AT1 capital notes by UBS Group AG, as well as Deferred Contingent Capital Plan awards granted for the performance years 2014, 2015 and 2016.

UBS Group AG is a holding company and conducts substantially all of its operations through UBS AG and its subsidiaries. UBS Group AG and UBS AG have contributed a significant portion of their respective capital and provide substantial liquidity to subsidiaries.

The tables in this section summarize the regulatory capital components and capital ratios of our significant regulated subsidiaries and sub-groups determined under the regulatory framework of each subsidiary’s or sub-group’s home jurisdiction.
Supervisory authorities generally have discretion to impose higher requirements or to otherwise limit the activities of subsidiaries.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements | This report contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements,” including but not limited to management’s outlook for UBS’s financial performance and statements relating to the anticipated effect of transactions and strategic initiatives on UBS’s business and future development. While these forward-looking statements represent UBS’s judgments and expectations concerning the matters described, a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors could cause actual developments and results to differ materially from UBS’s expectations. These factors include, but are not limited to: (i) the degree to which UBS is successful in the ongoing execution of its strategic plans, including its cost reduction and efficiency initiatives and its ability to manage its levels of risk-weighted assets (RWA), including to counteract regulatory-driven increases, leverage ratio denominator, liquidity coverage ratio and other financial resources, and the degree to which UBS is successful in implementing changes to its wealth management businesses to meet changing market, regulatory and other conditions; (ii) continuing low or negative interest rate environment, developments in the macroeconomic climate and in the markets in which UBS operates or to which it is exposed, including movements in securities prices or liquidity, credit spreads, and currency exchange rates, and the effects of economic conditions, market developments, and geopolitical tensions on the financial position or creditworthiness of UBS’s clients and counterparties as well as on client sentiment and levels of activity; (iii) changes in the availability of capital and funding, including any changes in UBS’s credit spreads and ratings, as well as availability and cost of funding to meet requirements for debt eligible for total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC); (iv) changes in or the implementation of financial legislation and regulation in Switzerland, the US, the UK and other financial centers that may impose, or result in, more stringent capital, TLAC, leverage ratio, liquidity and funding requirements, incremental tax requirements, additional levies, limitations on permitted activities, constraints on remuneration, constraints on transfers of capital and liquidity and sharing of operational costs across the Group or other measures, and the effect these would have on UBS’s business activities; (v) uncertainty as to the extent to which the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) will confirm limited reductions of gone concern requirements due to measures to reduce resolvability risk; (vi) the degree to which UBS is successful in implementing further changes to its legal structure to improve its resolvability and meet related regulatory requirements, including changes in legal structure and reporting required to implement US enhanced prudential standards, completing the implementation of a service company model, and the potential need to make further changes to the legal structure or booking model of UBS Group in response to legal and regulatory requirements, to proposals in Switzerland and other jurisdictions for mandatory structural reform of banks or systemically important institutions or to other external developments, and the extent to which such changes will have the intended effects; (vii) the uncertainty arising from the timing and nature of the UK exit from the EU and the potential need to make changes in UBS’s legal structure and operations as a result of it; (viii) changes in UBS’s competitive position, including whether differences in regulatory capital and other requirements among the major financial centers will adversely affect UBS’s ability to compete in certain lines of business; (ix) changes in the standards of conduct applicable to our businesses that may result from new regulation or new enforcement of existing standards, including recently enacted and proposed measures to impose new and enhanced duties when interacting with customers and in the execution and handling of customer transactions; (x) the liability to which UBS may be exposed, or possible constraints or sanctions that regulatory authorities might impose on UBS, due to litigation, contractual claims and regulatory investigations, including the potential for disqualification from certain businesses or loss of licenses or privileges as a result of regulatory or other governmental sanctions, as well as the effect that litigation, regulatory and similar matters have on the operational risk component of our RWA; (xi) the effects on UBS’s cross-border banking business of tax or regulatory developments and of possible changes in UBS’s policies and practices relating to this business; (xii) UBS’s ability to retain and attract the employees necessary to generate revenues and to manage, support and control its businesses, which may be affected by competitive factors including differences in compensation practices; (xiii) changes in accounting or tax standards or policies, and determinations or interpretations affecting the recognition of gain or loss, the valuation of goodwill, the recognition of deferred tax assets and other matters; (xiv) UBS’s ability to implement new technologies and business methods, including digital services and technologies and ability to successfully compete with both existing and new financial service providers, some of which may not be regulated to the same extent; (xv) limitations on the effectiveness of UBS’s internal processes for risk management, risk control, measurement and modeling, and of financial models generally; (xvi) the occurrence of operational failures, such as fraud, misconduct, unauthorized trading, financial crime, cyberattacks, and systems failures; (xvii) restrictions on the ability of UBS Group AG to make payments or distributions, including due to restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to make loans or distributions, directly or indirectly, or, in the case of financial difficulties, due to the exercise by FINMA or the regulators of UBS’s operations in other countries of their broad statutory powers in relation to protective measures, restructuring and liquidation proceedings; (xviii) the degree to which changes in regulation, capital or legal structure, financial results or other factors, including methodology, assumptions and stress scenarios, may affect UBS’s ability to maintain its stated capital return objective; and (xix) the effect that these or other factors or unanticipated events may have on our reputation and the additional consequences that this may have on our business and performance. The sequence in which the factors above are presented is not indicative of their likelihood of occurrence or the potential magnitude of their consequences. Our business and financial performance could be affected by other factors identified in our past and future filings and reports, including those filed with the SEC. More detailed information about those factors is set forth in documents furnished by UBS and filings made by UBS with the SEC, including UBS’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2016. UBS is not under any obligation to (and expressly disclaims any obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
