Introduction and basis for preparation

Scope of Basel III Pillar 3 disclosures

The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the BCBS) Basel III capital adequacy framework consists of three complementary pillars. Pillar 1 provides a framework for measuring minimum capital requirements for the credit, market, operational and non-counterparty-related risks faced by banks. Pillar 2 addresses the principles of the supervisory review process, emphasizing the need for a qualitative approach to supervising banks. Pillar 3 requires banks to publish a range of disclosures, mainly covering risk, capital, leverage, liquidity and remuneration.

This report provides Pillar 3 disclosures for the UBS Group and prudential key figures and regulatory information for UBS AG standalone, UBS Switzerland AG standalone, UBS Europe SE consolidated and UBS Americas Holding LLC consolidated in the respective sections under “Significant regulated subsidiaries and sub-groups.”

This Pillar 3 Report has been prepared in accordance with Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) Pillar 3 disclosure requirements (FINMA Circular 2016/1 “Disclosure – banks”) as revised on 8 December 2021, the underlying BCBS guidance “Revised Pillar 3 disclosure requirements” issued in January 2015, the “Frequently asked questions on the revised Pillar 3 disclosure requirements” issued in August 2016, the “Pillar 3 disclosure requirements – consolidated and enhanced framework” issued in March 2017 and the subsequent “Technical Amendment – Pillar 3 disclosure requirements – regulatory treatment of accounting provisions” issued in August 2018.

As UBS is considered a systemically relevant bank (an SRB) under Swiss banking law, UBS Group AG and UBS AG are required to comply with regulations based on the Basel III framework as applicable to Swiss SRBs on a consolidated basis.

    Refer to the “Capital management” section of our second quarter 2022 report, available under “Quarterly reporting” at ubs.com/investors, for more information about capital and other regulatory information as of 30 June 2022 for UBS Group AG consolidated, and to the “Capital management” section of the UBS AG second quarter 2022 report, available under “Quarterly reporting” at ubs.com/investors, for more information about capital and other regulatory information for UBS AG consolidated

Local regulators may also require the publication of Pillar 3 information at a subsidiary or sub-group level. Where applicable, these local disclosures are provided under “Holding company and significant regulated subsidiaries and sub-groups” at ubs.com/investors

Significant regulatory developments, disclosure requirements and other changes effective in the first half of 2022

FINMA’s annual assessment of recovery and resolution plans

In March 2022, FINMA presented its annual assessment of the recovery and resolution plans of systemically important financial institutions in Switzerland. In its report, FINMA acknowledged the further progress that UBS has made with regard to its global resolvability by significantly reducing remaining obstacles to the implementation of its resolution strategy and making further improvements to its recovery plans. FINMA considered UBS’s global recovery plan and Swiss emergency plan to be effective, while identifying areas for further improvement that UBS will address in the course of 2022 and beyond.

Revisions to the Swiss Banking Ordinance

In April 2022, the Swiss Federal Department of Finance (the FDF) launched a consultation on proposed revisions to the Swiss Banking Ordinance that follows the amendment to the Banking Act adopted by the Swiss Parliament in December 2021, enacting insolvency provisions for banks into statutory law and strengthening the deposit insurance framework. It also sets out amendments that aim to replace the current resolvability discount on the gone concern capital requirements for systemically important banks with a capital surcharge for obstacles to the firm’s resolvability at the discretion of the authorities. The consultation period ended on 15 July 2022 and we expect the final rules to be published by the end of 2022.

Significant regulatory developments, disclosure requirements and other changes to be adopted after the first half of 2022

Revision of the Swiss liquidity requirements

In June 2022, the Swiss Federal Council adopted the revisions to the Swiss Liquidity Ordinance. The revisions will increase the regulatory minimum liquidity requirements for systemically important banks, including UBS Group AG. The increase in UBS’s liquidity requirements remains uncertain pending supervisory guidance from FINMA. The final rule became effective on 1 July 2022, with a transition period of 18 months.

In accordance with Article 31b of the Liquidity Ordinance, the FDF provided a report to the Swiss Federal Council in which it reviewed Swiss and foreign provisions regarding the net stable funding ratio. The report identified no need for regulatory action.

Amendment of the Swiss Capital Adequacy Ordinance regarding the final implementation of Basel III

In July 2022, the FDF launched a consultation on amending the Swiss Capital Adequacy Ordinance with the aim of implementing the final elements of the BCBS reforms (Basel III) in Swiss law. In parallel, FINMA has opened a consultation on the associated implementing circulars.

We currently estimate that the implementation of the revised Basel III framework may lead to a net increase in risk-weighted assets (RWA) of around USD 20bn in 2024, excluding mitigating actions. The estimate includes credit risk and operational risk RWA from the finalization of the Basel III framework, as well as market risk and credit valuation adjustment RWA from the fundamental review of the trading book (the FRTB), based on our current understanding of the relevant standards. The precise impact might change as a result of new or revised regulatory interpretations, including those related to historical operational losses and model calibration, the implementation of Basel III standards into national law, changes in business growth, market conditions and other factors.

The consultations will last until 25 October 2022. The Swiss Federal Council’s Capital Adequacy Ordinance and the associated FINMA ordinances are scheduled to enter into force on 1 July 2024, with the phasing in of certain elements until 2028.

FINMA revision of Circular 2008/21 “Operational Risks – Banks”

In July 2022, FINMA completed a consultation regarding the revision of Circular 2008/21 “Operational Risks – Banks,” which will incorporate the BCBS’s new Principles on Operational Resilience into the FINMA framework. The circular will also cover the updated Principles for the Sound Management of Operational Risk, which cover a range of issues, including managing information and communication technology risks, cyber risks, and the risks involving critical data. The revised circular will enter into force on 1 January 2023, and firms will be given three years thereafter to comply with the operational resilience elements thereof.

Introduction of a Swiss public liquidity backstop

In conjunction with the revision of the Swiss Liquidity Ordinance, the Swiss Federal Council announced the key parameters for a public liquidity backstop in March 2022. The liquidity backstop would enable the Swiss government and the Swiss National Bank to support the liquidity of a systemically important bank domiciled in Switzerland in the process of resolution. The introduction of the backstop is intended to increase the confidence of market participants in the ability of systemically important banks to become successfully recapitalized and remain solvent in a crisis situation. The FDF is expected to issue a consultation by mid-2023.

Other developments effective in the first half of 2022

Capital returns

On 6 April 2022, the shareholders approved a dividend of USD 0.50 per share at the Annual General Meeting. The dividend was paid on 14 April 2022 to shareholders of record on 13 April 2022.

The 2021 share repurchase program was concluded on 29 March 2022. A total of 240.3m UBS Group AG shares were acquired at an aggregate purchase price of CHF 3,810m, of which 87.7m shares were repurchased during the first quarter of 2022.

On 31 March 2022, we commenced a new 2022 share repurchase program of up to USD 6bn over two years. From 1 January 2022 to 30 June 2022, we repurchased 180m shares for a total acquisition cost of CHF 3,091m (USD 3,270m) under the 2021 and 2022 share repurchase programs. We expect to execute around USD 5bn of repurchases in aggregate in 2022 under the 2021 and 2022 share repurchase programs.

Sale of our shareholding in Mitsubishi Corp.-UBS Realty Inc.

In the second quarter of 2022, we completed the sale of our 49% shareholding in our Japanese real estate joint venture, Mitsubishi Corp.-UBS Realty Inc., to KKR & Co. Inc., as announced on 17 March 2022. The sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of USD 848m in Asset Management and increased our CET1 capital by USD 979m. Our asset management, wealth management and investment banking businesses operating in Japan were not affected by the sale.

Significant model updates

On 13 December 2021, the French Court of Appeal found UBS AG guilty of unlawful solicitation and aggravated laundering of the proceeds of tax fraud. Following a review with FINMA, we reflected additional operational risk RWA of USD 4.1bn related to this matter in the first half of 2022. The additional operational risk RWA were phased in over two quarters, with USD 2.1bn reflected in the first quarter of 2022 and USD 2.0bn in the second quarter of the year.

In addition, we have updated the model for margin period of risk, which resulted in an increase in RWA of USD 1.1bn in the second quarter of 2022.

We have also updated the loss-given-default model for mortgages in Switzerland, which resulted in an increase in RWA of USD 1.0bn in the second quarter of 2022.

Since the beginning of the second quarter of 2021, we began to phase in an RWA increase related to a new model for structured margin loans and similar products in Global Wealth Management. This RWA increase was phased in over five quarters until the second quarter of 2022. As a result, credit risk RWA increased by USD 0.7bn in the first quarter of 2022 and by USD 0.7bn in the second quarter of 2022 when the phase in was completed.

Frequency and comparability of Pillar 3 disclosures

FINMA has specified the reporting frequency for each disclosure, as outlined in the “Introduction and basis for preparation” section of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors

In line with the FINMA-specified disclosure frequency and requirements for disclosure with regard to comparative periods, we provide quantitative comparative information as of 31 March 2022 for disclosures required on a quarterly basis and as of 31 December 2021 for disclosures required on a semi-annual basis. Where specifically required by FINMA and / or the BCBS, we disclose comparative information for additional reporting dates.

Where required, movement commentary is aligned with the corresponding disclosure frequency required by FINMA and always refers to the latest comparative period. Throughout this report, signposts are displayed at the beginning of a section, table or chart – Semi-annual | Quarterly | – indicating whether the disclosure is provided semi-annually or quarterly. A triangle symbol – – indicates the end of the signpost.

Key metrics

Key metrics of the second quarter of 2022

Quarterly | The KM1 and KM2 tables on the following pages are based on Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) Basel III rules. The KM2 table includes a reference to the total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) term sheet, published by the Financial Stability Board (the FSB). The FSB provides this term sheet at fsb.org/2015/11/total-loss-absorbing-capacity-tlac-principles-and-term-sheet

Our capital ratios decreased, primarily reflecting increases in risk-weighted assets, while our leverage ratios increased, mainly reflecting decreases in the leverage ratio denominator. Our common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital increased by USD 0.2bn to USD 44.8bn, mainly reflecting operating profit before tax of USD 2.6bn, a positive pre-tax effect of USD 0.4bn from the reclassification of a portfolio of high-quality liquid assets from Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) to Other financial assets measured at amortized cost, largely offset by share repurchases of USD 1.6bn, negative effects from foreign currency translation of USD 0.6bn, dividend accruals of USD 0.4bn and current tax expenses of USD 0.4bn.

Our tier 1 capital decreased by USD 0.1bn to USD 59.9bn, primarily reflecting a decrease in our additional tier 1 (AT1) capital of USD 0.4bn, mainly reflecting interest rate risk hedges, foreign currency translation and other effects, partly offset by the aforementioned increase in our CET1 capital.

The TLAC available as of 30 June 2022 included CET1 capital, AT1 and tier 2 capital instruments eligible under the TLAC framework, and non-regulatory capital elements of TLAC. Under the Swiss systemically relevant bank (SRB) framework, including transitional arrangements, TLAC excludes 45% of the gross unrealized gains on debt instruments measured at FVOCI for accounting purposes, which for regulatory capital purposes are measured at the lower of cost or market value. This amount was negligible as of 30 June 2022, but is included as available TLAC in the KM2 table in this section.

Our available TLAC decreased by USD 0.3bn to USD 106.2bn, mainly reflecting the aforementioned decrease in our tier 1 capital and a USD 0.1bn decrease in TLAC-eligible senior unsecured debt. The decrease of USD 0.1bn in TLAC-eligible senior unsecured debt was mainly due to two calls of TLAC-eligible unsecured debt denominated in US dollars amounting to USD 3.0bn, and interest rate risk hedge, foreign currency translation and other effects, largely offset by eight new issuances of TLAC-eligible senior unsecured debt, denominated in US dollars, euro and Australian dollars, amounting to USD 5.2bn equivalent.

Risk-weighted assets (RWA) increased by USD 3.6bn to USD 315.7bn, mainly driven by increases in operational risk RWA of USD 2.0bn, market risk RWA of USD 1.7bn and credit risk RWA of USD 1.6bn, partly offset by decreases across various other risk types, notably settlement risk of USD 0.6bn, amounts below thresholds for deductions of USD 0.5bn and equity investments in funds of USD 0.4bn. The overall increase of USD 3.6bn included a decrease of USD 5bn related to currency effects.

Leverage ratio exposure decreased by USD 47.5bn to USD 1,025.4bn, including currency effects of USD 27.3bn, driven by lower central bank balances, trading portfolio and lending assets, as well as a decrease in securities financing transactions.

In the second quarter of 2022, the quarterly average liquidity coverage ratio (the LCR) of UBS Group increased 1 percentage point to 161%, remaining above the prudential requirement communicated by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). The movement in the average LCR was driven by a decrease in net cash outflows of USD 3.4bn to USD 155.1bn due to lower outflows from customer deposit balances, partly offset by a decrease in high-quality liquid assets of USD 3.5bn to USD 249.4bn, mainly reflecting lower average cash balances, driven by debt maturities and decreases in customer deposits, partly offset by lower funding consumption in the business divisions.

As of 30 June 2022, the net stable funding ratio (the NSFR) of UBS Group decreased 1 percentage point to 121%, remaining above the prudential requirement communicated by FINMA. The movement in the NSFR was driven by USD 17.5bn lower available stable funding, mainly due to a decrease in customer deposit balances, partly offset by lower required stable funding of USD 11.5bn, mainly due to a decrease in trading assets.

1 The fully loaded ECL accounting model excludes the transitional relief of recognizing ECL allowances and provisions in CET1 capital in accordance with FINMA Circular 2013/1 “Eligible capital – banks.”    2 From 1 January 2022, certain tier 2 capital positions have been phased out of total capital under BIS rules into gone concern capital, resulting in a decrease of total capital of USD 0.4bn. The prior period has been restated accordingly.    3 Calculated as 8% of total RWA, based on total capital minimum requirements, excluding CET1 buffer requirements.    4 Calculated based on an average of 64 data points in the second quarter of 2022 and 64 data points in the first quarter of 2022. For the prior-quarter data points, refer to the respective Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors, for more information. Refer to the “Liquidity and funding” section of this report for more information.    5 Refer to the “Introduction and basis for preparation” section of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report and to the “Liquidity and funding management” section of the UBS Group second quarter 2022 report for more information.

Overview of risk-weighted assets

Overview of RWA and capital requirements

Quarterly | The OV1 table on the following page provides an overview of our risk-weighted assets (RWA) and related minimum capital requirements by risk type. The table presented is based on the respective Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) template and empty rows indicate current non-applicability to UBS.

During the second quarter of 2022, RWA increased by USD 3.6bn to USD 315.7bn, mainly driven by higher operational risk RWA of USD 2.0bn, market risk RWA of USD 1.7bn and credit risk RWA of USD 1.6bn, partly offset by decreases across various other risk types, notably settlement risk of USD 0.6bn, amounts below thresholds for deductions of USD 0.5bn and equity investments in funds of USD 0.4bn. The overall increase of USD 3.6bn included a decrease of USD 5bn related to currency effects.

Operational risk RWA increased by USD 2.0bn. Following a review with FINMA on the French cross-border matter, we reflected additional operational risk RWA of USD 4.1bn related to this matter in the first half of 2022, USD 2.1bn in the first quarter of 2022 and USD 2.0bn in the second quarter.

Market risk RWA increased by USD 1.7bn, mainly due to a USD 2.1bn increase in asset size and other movements primarily related to higher average regulatory and stressed value-at-risk levels in the Investment Bank’s Global Markets business on the back of continued market volatility from the previous quarter, as well as an increase of USD 0.2bn in regulatory add-ons that reflected updates from the monthly risks-not-in-VaR assessment. This was partially offset by a decrease of USD 0.7bn primarily driven by the introduction of a value-at-risk (VaR) model change.

Credit risk RWA increased by USD 1.6bn, driven by an increase in asset size and other movements of USD 3.1bn, mainly on Lombard and other loans in Global Wealth Management, as well as model updates of USD 1.8bn, primarily related to updates to the loss-given-default (LGD) model for mortgages in Switzerland of USD 1.0bn and the quarterly phase-in of USD 0.7bn for structured margin loans and similar products in Global Wealth Management. These increases were partly offset by a decrease of USD 3.4bn related to currency effects.

The flow tables for credit risk, counterparty credit risk and market risk RWA in the respective sections of this report provide further details regarding the movements in RWA in the second quarter of 2022.

Credit risk

Introduction

Semi-annual | The parameters applied under the advanced internal ratings-based (A-IRB) approach are generally based on the same methodologies, data and systems we use for internal credit risk quantification, except where certain treatments are specified by regulatory requirements. These include, for example, the application of regulatory prescribed floors and multipliers, and differences with respect to eligibility criteria and exposure definitions. The exposure information presented in this section may thus differ from our internal management view disclosed in the “Risk management and control” sections of our quarterly and annual reports. Similarly, the regulatory capital prescribed measure of credit risk exposure also differs from how it is defined under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Credit quality of assets

Semi-annual | The CR1 table below provides a breakdown of defaulted and non-defaulted loans, debt securities and off-balance sheet exposures. The table includes a split of expected credit loss (ECL) accounting provisions based on the standardized approach and the internal ratings-based approach.

Decreases in net carrying values of Loans and increases in net carrying values of Debt securities, when compared with 31 December 2021, are explained in the CR3 table of this report. The net carrying value of Off-balance sheet exposures decreased by USD 4.7bn to USD 59.6bn, primarily driven by credit commitments of USD 3.3bn in our Investment Bank and Personal & Corporate Banking businesses and guarantees of USD 1.4bn in our Personal & Corporate Banking business.

    Refer to the “CR3: Credit risk mitigation techniques – overview” table in this section for more information about the net value movements related to Loans and Debt securities shown in the table below

    Refer to “Credit risk” in the “Risk management and control” section of our Annual Report 2021, which is available under ”Annual reporting” at ubs.com/investors, for more information about the definitions of default and credit impairment and to “Credit risk exposure categories” in the “Credit risk“ section of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors, for more information about the classification of loans and debt securities

Credit risk mitigation

Semi-annual | The CR3 table below provides a breakdown of loans and debt securities into unsecured and partially or fully secured exposures, with additional information about the security type.

Compared with 31 December 2021, the carrying amount of unsecured loans decreased by USD 1.8bn to USD 227.3bn, mainly due to a decrease in cash and balances with central banks. Unsecured debt securities increased by USD 5.4bn to USD 61.2bn, mainly due to an increase in high-quality liquid assets (HQLA).

The carrying amount of partially or fully secured exposures decreased by USD 15.1bn to USD 376.4bn, mainly as a result of currency effects and decreases in secured loans to customers in our Personal & Corporate Banking and Global Wealth Management businesses.

Credit risk under the standardized approach

Introduction

The standardized approach is generally applied where using the advanced internal ratings-based (A-IRB) approach is not possible. The standardized approach requires banks to, where possible, use risk assessments prepared by external credit assessment institutions (ECAI) or export credit agencies to determine the risk weightings applied to rated counterparties.

Credit risk exposure and credit risk mitigation effects

Semi-annual | The CR4 table below illustrates the credit risk exposure and effect of credit risk mitigation (CRM) on the calculation of capital requirements under the standardized approach.

Compared with 31 December 2021, exposures before and after credit conversion factor (CCF) and CRM in the Corporate asset class increased by USD 2.7bn and USD 2.6bn, respectively, mainly due to an increase in loans and loan commitments in Global Wealth Management. Exposures pre- and post-CCF and CRM in the Retail asset class decreased by USD 1.2bn and USD 0.9bn, respectively, mainly due to a decrease in residential mortgages in Global Wealth Management.

Credit risk under the advanced internal ratings-based approach

Introduction

Under the A-IRB approach, the required capital for credit risk is quantified through empirical models that we have developed internally to estimate the probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD), exposure at default (EAD) and other parameters, subject to FINMA approval.

Credit risk exposures by portfolio and PD range

Semi-annual | The CR6 table on the following pages provides information about credit risk exposures under the A-IRB approach, including a breakdown of the main parameters used in A-IRB models to calculate the capital requirements, presented by portfolio and PD range across FINMA-defined asset classes.

Compared with 31 December 2021, EAD post-CCF and post-CRM decreased by USD 19.0bn to USD 705.9bn across various asset classes. RWA increased by USD 3.2bn to USD 119.6bn.

In the Retail: other retail asset class, EAD post-CCF and post-CRM decreased by USD 14.7bn to USD 205.8bn, primarily driven by a decrease in Lombard loans and unutilized Lombard facilities, as well as currency effects in Global Wealth Management. RWA increased by USD 2.5bn to USD 19.9bn, mainly due to rating deteriorations related to Lombard lending, as well as the phase-in impact related to a model update for structured margin loans and similar products in Global Wealth Management.

In the Retail: residential mortgages asset class, EAD post-CCF and post-CRM decreased by USD 2.3bn to USD  168.1bn, primarily due to currency effects in Global Wealth Management and Personal & Corporate Banking, partially offset by business growth in Global Wealth Management. RWA increased by USD 0.7bn to USD 37.0bn mainly reflecting updates to the LGD model for mortgages in Switzerland.

In the Central governments and central banks asset class, EAD post-CCF and post-CRM decreased by USD 1.1bn to USD 221.3bn, mainly due to a reduction in loan commitments guaranteed by the Swiss government. RWA increased by USD 1.2bn to USD 3.7bn, primarily driven by increases in nostro and HQLA and rating deteriorations.

In the Corporates: other lending asset class, EAD post-CCF and post-CRM decreased by USD 2.3bn to USD 60.0bn and RWA decreased by USD 1.1bn to USD 38.1bn, primarily driven by a decrease in loans and loan commitments in the Investment Bank.

    Refer to the “CR8: RWA flow statements of credit risk exposures under IRB” table in this section of this report for further details about the movement of credit risk exposures under the A-IRB approach for the second quarter of 2022

    Refer to the “Introduction and basis for preparation” section of our 31 March 2022 Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors, for more information about credit risk RWA for the first quarter of 2022, including details regarding movements in RWA

1 In line with BCBS Pillar 3 disclosure requirements, provisions are only provided for the sub-totals by asset class. Expected credit loss (ECL) allowances and provisions amounted to USD 1,107m as of 30 June 2022, as disclosed in “Note 7  Expected credit loss measurement” of the UBS Group AG second quarter 2022 report. This included USD 951m related to credit risk under the IRB approach, USD 150m related to credit risk under the standardized approach and USD 5m related to exposures under counterparty credit risk. The CR6 table includes ECL related to revocable off-balance sheet exposures of USD 36m, which are excluded from the “CR1: Credit quality of assets” table in this report.    2 In the second quarter of 2021, we began to phase in a quarterly RWA increase of USD 0.7bn related to a new model for structured margin loans and similar products in Global Wealth Management in the “Retail: other retail” asset class. The RWA increase is being phased in over five quarters. The associated changes to PD and LGD, as well as a refinement to the asset class allocation, primarily toward the corporate asset class, will only be reflected with the introduction of the new model that is expected to be implemented by the fourth quarter of 2022.    3 Average LGD for defaulted exposures disclosed in the table is not used to calculate RWA. The disclosed number is derived using ECL accounting provisions (stage 3) divided by total exposures pre-CCF.    4 Retail asset classes are excluded from the average maturity as maturity is not relevant for risk-weighting.

Credit derivatives used as CRM techniques

Semi-annual | Where credit derivatives are used as credit risk mitigation, the probability of default (PD) of the obligor is in general substituted with the PD of the hedge provider. In addition, default correlation between the obligor and the hedge provider is taken into account through the double default approach.

RWA flow statements of credit risk exposures under IRB

Quarterly | The CR8 table below provides a breakdown of the credit risk RWA movements in the second quarter of 2022 across movement categories defined by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS). These categories are described in the “Credit risk” section of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors

Credit risk RWA under the A-IRB approach increased by USD 1bn to USD 119.6bn during the second quarter of 2022.

The RWA increase from asset size movements of USD 0.4bn was predominantly driven by increases from loans in Global Wealth Management, as well as nostro and HQLA balances in Group Functions.

The increase in RWA from asset quality of USD 1.4bn was mainly due to rating deteriorations related to Lombard lending in Global Wealth Management.

Model updates of USD 1.8bn mainly reflected updates of USD 1.0bn related to the LGD model for mortgages in Switzerland and the quarterly phase-in of USD 0.7bn for structured margin loans and similar products in Global Wealth Management. Foreign exchange movements led to an RWA decrease of USD 2.6bn.

Counterparty credit risk

Introduction

Semi-annual I This section provides information about the exposures subject to the Basel III counterparty credit risk (CCR) framework. CCR arises from over-the-counter (OTC) and exchange-traded derivatives (ETDs), securities financing transactions (SFTs), and long settlement transactions. Within traded products, we determine the regulatory credit exposure on the majority of our derivatives portfolio by applying the effective expected positive exposure (EEPE) and stressed expected positive exposure (SEPE) as defined in the Basel III framework. For the rest of the derivatives portfolio, we apply the standardized approach for counterparty credit risk (SA-CCR). For the majority of SFTs (securities borrowing, securities lending, margin lending, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements), we determine the regulatory credit exposure using the close-out-period (COP) approach. For the rest of the SFTs portfolio, we apply the comprehensive approach for credit risk mitigation.

Counterparty credit exposure

Semi-annual I The CCR1 table below presents the methods used to calculate counterparty credit risk exposure. Compared with 31 December 2021, exposures related to the comprehensive approach for credit risk mitigation for SFTs decreased by USD 8.0bn, mainly due to lower levels of client activity in the Investment Bank. This decrease was partly offset by increases in exposures related to the internal model method and SA-CCR of USD 3.4bn and USD 2.8bn, respectively, primarily reflecting market-driven movements on foreign currency and interest rate contracts in the Investment Bank.

Semi-annual | The CCR2 table below presents the credit valuation adjustment (CVA) capital charge with a breakdown by standardized and advanced approaches. In addition to the default risk capital requirements for CCR on derivatives, we are required to add a CVA capital charge to cover the risk of mark-to-market losses associated with the deterioration of counterparty credit quality. The advanced CVA value-at-risk (VaR) approach has been used to calculate the CVA capital charge where we use the internal model method (the IMM). Where this is not the case, the standardized CVA approach has been used.

Compared with 31 December 2021, CVA risk-weighted assets (RWA) increased by USD 0.3bn to USD 3.9bn, primarily due to higher derivative exposures, mainly as a result of higher levels of client activity, as well as a methodology and policy change related to standardized CVA for Global Wealth Management derivatives with Lombard ratings.

Semi-annual | The CCR3 table below provides information about our CCR exposures under the standardized approach. Compared with 31 December 2021, total exposures decreased by USD 1.9bn to USD 2.4bn, primarily due to margin loans no longer being risk-weighted under the standardized approach with a 75% risk-weight, following the implementation of a new advanced internal ratings-based (A-IRB) model for structured margin loans in the Investment Bank.

Semi-annual | The CCR4 table on the following pages provides a breakdown of the key parameters used for the calculation of capital requirements under the A-IRB approach across Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA)-defined asset classes. Compared with 31 December 2021, exposure at default (EAD) post-credit risk mitigation (CRM) decreased by USD 0.5bn to USD 112.1bn across the various asset classes. RWA increased by USD 3.0bn to USD 35.2bn.

In the Central governments and central banks asset class, EAD post-CRM decreased by USD 2.1bn to USD 8.5bn and RWA decreased by USD 0.2bn to USD 0.7bn, mainly as a result of lower levels of activity in SFTs in the Investment Bank and Group Functions.

In the Banks and securities dealers asset class, EAD post-CRM increased by USD 1.4bn to USD 24.0bn and RWA increased by USD 0.5bn to USD 6.4bn, primarily reflecting market-driven movements on foreign currency and interest rate contracts.

In the Public-sector entities and multi-lateral development banks asset class, EAD post-CRM increased by USD 0.1bn to USD 0.6bn and RWA remained unchanged at USD 0.1bn.

In the Corporates: including specialized lending asset class, EAD post-CRM decreased by USD 0.4bn to USD 71.9bn, primarily due to exposure decreases in SFTs, mainly as a result of lower levels of client activity in the Investment Bank. RWA increased by USD 2.7bn to USD 27.4bn, primarily driven by the implementation of a new structured margin lending model of USD 1.7bn and the model updates to margin period of risk of USD 1.1bn, as well as the implementation of an exposure-at-default floor of USD 0.3bn for prime brokerage clients, partly offset by a decrease as a result of the aforementioned decrease in exposures.

In the Retail: other retail asset class, EAD post-CRM increased by USD 0.4bn to USD 7.1bn and RWA increased by USD 0.1bn to USD 0.7bn, mainly due to increases in derivatives in Global Wealth Management.

1 Average maturity for defaulted exposures disclosed in the table is not used to calculate RWA.    2 Includes exposures to managed funds.    3 Retail asset classes are excluded from the average maturity as they are not subject to maturity treatment.    4 From 30 June 2022 onward, we have refined the limit information for Lombard trading clients, which resulted in a change in the distribution of the numbers of obligors by probability of default range.

Semi-annual | The CCR5 table below presents a breakdown of collateral posted or received relating to counterparty credit risk exposures from derivative transactions or SFTs.

Compared with 31 December 2021, the fair value of collateral received for derivatives increased by USD 11.9bn to USD 85.4bn, and the fair value of collateral posted increased by USD 6.3bn to USD 63.3bn, mainly in the Investment Bank’s Global Markets business primarily following an increase in replacement values as a result of higher foreign-exchange and rates volatility in the first half of 2022.

The fair value of collateral received for SFTs decreased by USD 101.8bn to USD 557.8bn, and the fair value of collateral posted for SFTs decreased by USD 54.4bn to USD 419.2bn, primarily driven by lower levels of client activity related to equity securities and sovereign debt in Group Treasury and the Investment Bank.

1 This table includes collateral received and posted with and without the right of rehypothecation, but excludes securities placed with central banks related to undrawn credit lines and for payment, clearing and settlement purposes for which there were no associated liabilities or contingent liabilities.    2 Includes collateral received in derivative transactions, primarily initial margins, that is placed with a third-party custodian and to which UBS has access only in the event of counterparty default.    3 Includes collateral posted to central counterparties, where we apply a 0% risk weight for trades that we have entered into on behalf of a client and where the client has signed a legally enforceable agreement stipulating that the default risk of that central counterparty is carried by the client. Furthermore, it includes posted collateral, which is held in a segregated, bankruptcy-remote account and is therefore not considered in the determination of the net independent collateral amount.    4 Cash collateral received and posted for derivatives and SFTs are subject to netting recognized on the IFRS balance sheet.

Semi-annual | The CCR6 table below presents an overview of credit risk protection bought or sold through credit derivatives.

Compared with 31 December 2021, notionals for credit derivatives increased by USD 2.9bn to USD 59.0bn for protection bought and by USD 6.1bn to USD 52.5bn for protection sold. This was primarily driven by index credit default swaps and single-name credit default swaps, mostly due to higher levels of client activity that resulted from higher market volatility, partly offset by trade compression activity in the Investment Bank and Group Treasury.

Counterparty credit risk risk-weighted assets

Quarterly | The CCR7 table below presents a flow statement explaining changes in counterparty credit risk RWA determined under the IMM for derivatives and the VaR approach for SFTs.

CCR RWA on derivatives under the IMM decreased by USD 0.7bn to USD 17.8bn during the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to currency effects.

CCR RWA on SFTs under the VaR approach increased by USD 0.6bn to USD 10.3bn during the second quarter of 2022. Model updates resulted in increases of USD 1.0bn, mainly related to updates to the margin period of risk for prime brokerage clients, as well as increases in regulatory add-ons of USD 0.3bn, related to the implementation of an exposure-at-default floor of USD 0.3bn for prime brokerage clients. These increases were partly offset by asset size decreases of USD 0.3bn, mainly due to lower levels of client activity, as well as decreases in currency effects of USD 0.2bn.

    Refer to “Definitions of credit risk and counterparty credit risk RWA movement table components for CR8 and CCR7” in the “Credit risk” section of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors, for definitions of CCR RWA movement table components

1 Qualifying central counterparties (QCCPs) are entities licensed by regulators to operate as CCPs and meet the requirements outlined in FINMA Circular 2017/7.    2 Exposures associated with initial margin, where the exposures are measured under the IMM or the VaR approach, have been included within the exposures for trades (refer to line 2 for QCCPs and line 12 for non-QCCPs). The exposures for non-segregated initial margin (refer to line 8 for QCCPs and line 18 for non-QCCPs), i.e., not bankruptcy-remote in accordance with FINMA Circular 2017/7, reflect the replacement costs under SA-CCR multiplied by an alpha factor of 1.4. The RWA reflect the exposure multiplied by the applied risk weight of derivatives. Under SA-CCR, collateral posted to a segregated, bankruptcy-remote account does not increase the value of replacement costs.

Securitizations

Securitization exposures in the banking and trading book

Semi-annual | The ”Securitization exposures in the banking and trading book and associated regulatory capital requirements” table outlines the carrying values in the banking and trading books as of 30 June 2022 and 31 December 2021. For synthetic securitization transactions, the amounts disclosed reflect the net exposure amounts of the securitized exposures. The table also shows the risk-weighted assets (the RWA) from securitization and the capital charge after application of the revised securitization framework caps. The semi-annual securitization disclosures (SEC1–SEC4) have been condensed into the aforementioned form based on materiality. 

    Refer to our 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Reports, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors, for more information on the definition of securitization and our role in securitization transactions

Development of securitization exposures in the first half of 2022

Semi-annual | Compared with 31 December 2021, securitization exposures in the banking book increased by USD 220m, primarily due to wholesale exposures where UBS acts as an investor. RWA related to securitization exposures in the banking book decreased by USD 166m due to the repayment of retail exposures in our Non-core and Legacy Portfolio within Group Functions, which we continue to wind down. The securitization exposures in the trading book decreased by USD 176m, mainly related to secondary trading in commercial mortgage-backed securities in the Investment Bank.

Market risk

Overview

Semi-annual | The amount of capital required to underpin market risk in the regulatory trading book is calculated using a variety of methods approved by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). The components contributing to market risk risk-weighted assets (RWA) are value-at-risk (VaR), stressed value-at-risk (SVaR), an add-on for risks that are potentially not fully modeled in VaR (risks not in VaR, or RniV), the incremental risk charge (IRC) and the securitization framework for securitization positions in the trading book.

    Refer to the “Market risk” and “Securitizations” sections of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors, for more information about each of these components

Market risk risk-weighted assets

Market risk RWA development in the second quarter of 2022

Quarterly | The three main components that contribute to market risk RWA are VaR, SVaR and IRC. The VaR and SVaR components include the RWA charge for RniV.

The MR2 table below provides a breakdown of the movement in market risk RWA in the second quarter of 2022 under an internal models approach across those components, pursuant to the movement categories defined by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the BCBS). These categories are described in the “Market risk” section of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors.  

Market risk RWA under an internal models approach increased by USD 1.6bn to USD 14.9bn in the second quarter of 2022, mainly due to an increase in asset size and other movements primarily related to higher average regulatory and stressed value-at-risk levels in the Investment Bank’s Global Markets business on the back of continued market volatility from the previous quarter, as well as an increase in regulatory add-ons that reflected updates from the monthly RniV assessment. This was partially offset by a decrease primarily driven by the introduction of a VaR model change. The integration of time decay into the regulatory VaR model is subject to further discussions between FINMA and UBS.

The FINMA VaR multiplier derived from backtesting exceptions for market risk RWA was unchanged compared with the prior quarter, at 3.0.

Securitization positions in the trading book

Semi-annual | Our exposure to securitization positions in the trading book includes exposures arising from secondary trading in commercial mortgage-backed securities in the Investment Bank, and limited positions in the Non-core and Legacy Portfolio within Group Functions that we continue to wind down.

Securitization exposures in the trading book is the only relevant disclosure component of market risk under the standardized approach. Securitization exposures subject to market risk RWA decreased by USD 176m to USD 354m as of 30 June 2022.

    Refer to the “Securitizations” section of this report for more information about the securitization exposures in the trading book

Regulatory calculation of market risk

Semi-annual | The MR3 table below shows minimum, maximum, average and period-end regulatory VaR, SVaR, the IRC and the comprehensive risk capital charge. Since the second quarter of 2019, we have not held eligible correlation trading positions.

During the first half of 2022, 10-day 99% regulatory VaR and SVaR increased, driven by heightened market volatility compared with the second half of 2021.

MR4: Comparison of VaR estimates with gains/losses

Semi-annual | VaR backtesting is a performance measurement process in which a 1-day VaR prediction is compared with the realized 1-day profit or loss (P&L). We compute backtesting VaR using a 99% confidence level and 1-day holding period for the regulatory VaR population. Since 99% VaR at UBS is defined as a risk measure that operates on the lower tail of the P&L distribution, 99% backtesting VaR is a negative number. Backtesting revenues exclude non-trading revenues, such as valuation reserves, fees and commissions, and revenues from intraday trading, to provide for a like-for-like comparison. A backtesting exception occurs when backtesting revenues are lower than the previous day’s backtesting VaR.

Statistically, given the 99% confidence level, 2 or 3 backtesting exceptions a year can be expected. More than 4 exceptions could indicate that the VaR model is not performing appropriately, as could too few exceptions over a long period. However, as noted under “VaR limitations” in the “Risk management and control” section of our Annual Report 2021, a sudden increase (or decrease) in market volatility relative to the five-year window could lead to a higher (or lower) number of exceptions. Therefore Group-level backtesting exceptions are investigated, as are exceptional positive backtesting revenues, with the results reported to senior business management, the Group Chief Risk Officer and the Group Chief Market & Treasury Risk Officer. Internal and external auditors and relevant regulators are also informed of backtesting exceptions.

The “Group: development of regulatory backtesting revenues and actual trading revenues against backtesting VaR” chart below shows the 12-month development of backtesting VaR against the Group’s backtesting revenues and actual trading revenues for the first half of 2022. The chart shows both the 99% and the 1% backtesting VaR. The asymmetry between the negative and positive tails is due to the long gamma risk profile historically run in the Investment Bank.

The actual trading revenues include backtesting and intraday revenues.

There were no new Group VaR negative backtesting exceptions in the first half of 2022, and the total number of negative backtesting exceptions within the most recent 250-business-day window decreased to 1 from 2. As these backtesting exceptions remained below 5, the FINMA VaR multiplier used to compute regulatory and stressed VaR RWA remained unchanged at 3 throughout the period.

1 Includes applicable add-ons of 1.44% for RWA and 0.50% for LRD.    2 Our minimum CET1 leverage ratio requirement of 3.5% consists of a 1.5% base requirement, a 1.5% base buffer capital requirement, a 0.25% LRD add-on requirement and a 0.25% market share add-on requirement based on our Swiss credit business.    3 Includes outstanding low-trigger loss-absorbing additional tier 1 (AT1) capital instruments, which are available under the Swiss SRB framework to meet the going concern requirements until their first call date. As of their first call date, these instruments are eligible to meet the gone concern requirements.    4 A maximum of 25% of the gone concern requirements can be met with instruments that have a remaining maturity of between one and two years. Once at least 75% of the minimum gone concern requirement has been met with instruments that have a remaining maturity of greater than two years, all instruments that have a remaining maturity of between one and two years remain eligible to be included in the total gone concern capital.    5 The gone concern requirement after the application of the rebate for resolvability measures and the reduction for the use of higher-quality capital instruments is floored at 10% and 3.75% for the RWA- and LRD-based requirements, respectively. This means that the combined reduction may not exceed 4.3 percentage points for the RWA-based requirement of 14.3% and 1.25 percentage points for the LRD-based requirement of 5.0%.    6 Based on the actions we completed up to December 2021 to improve resolvability, FINMA granted an increase in the rebate on the gone concern requirement from 55.0% to 65.0% of the maximum rebate, effective from 1 July 2022.

Explanation of the differences between the IFRS and regulatory scopes of consolidation

Semi-annual | As of 30 June 2022, UBS Asset Management Life Ltd (total assets on a standalone basis as of 30 June 2022: USD 14,537m; total equity on a standalone basis as of 30 June 2022: USD 26m) represented the most significant entity that was included in the IFRS scope of consolidation but not in the regulatory scope of consolidation. This life insurance entity accounts for most of the difference between the “Balance sheet in accordance with IFRS scope of consolidation” and the “Balance sheet in accordance with regulatory scope of consolidation” columns in the CC2 table. Such difference is mainly related to financial assets at fair value not held for trading and other financial liabilities designated at fair value. As of 30 June 2022, entities consolidated under either IFRS or the regulatory scope of consolidation did not report any significant capital deficiencies.

In the banking book, certain equity investments are not consolidated under either the IFRS or the regulatory scope. As of 30 June 2022, these investments mainly consisted of infrastructure holdings and joint operations (e.g., settlement and clearing institutions, and stock and financial futures exchanges) and included our participation in SIX Group. These investments are risk-weighted based on applicable threshold rules.

    Refer to the “Our evolution” section and “Note 1 Summary of material accounting policies” in the “Consolidated financial statements” section, respectively, of our Annual Report 2021, available under “Annual reporting” at ubs.com/investors,  for more information about the legal structure of UBS Group and the IFRS scope of consolidation

    Refer to the “Linkage between financial statements and regulatory exposures” section of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors,  for more information about differences between the IFRS and regulatory scopes of consolidation

Total loss-absorbing capacity

Resolution group – composition of total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC)

Semi-annual | The TLAC1 table below is based on Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) rules, and only applicable to UBS Group AG as the ultimate parent entity of the defined UBS resolution group, to which, in case of resolution, resolution tools (e.g., a bail-in) are expected to be applied.

In the first half of 2022, our eligible additional tier 1 (AT1) instruments decreased by USD 0.1bn, mainly reflecting the call of a USD 1.1bn-equivalent AT1 capital instrument denominated in euro, as well as interest rate risk hedge, foreign currency translation and other effects, almost entirely offset by two issuances of AT1 capital instruments denominated in US dollars and Swiss francs amounting to USD 1.8bn equivalent.

Our eligible tier 2 instruments decreased by USD 0.7bn to USD 2.5bn as of 30 June 2022, mainly reflecting certain tier 2 capital positions that have been phased out of total capital under BIS rules into gone concern capital and interest rate risk hedge effects.

Non-regulatory capital instruments increased by USD 2.8bn to USD 43.9bn as of 30 June 2022, mainly due to thirteen new issuances of TLAC-eligible senior unsecured debt denominated in US dollars, euro and Australian dollars amounting to USD 10.0bn equivalent, partly offset by two calls of TLAC-eligible unsecured debt denominated in US dollars amounting to USD 3.0bn and interest rate risk hedge, foreign currency translation and other effects.

Resolution entity – creditor ranking at legal entity level

Semi-annual | The TLAC3 table below provides an overview of the creditor ranking structure of the resolution entity, UBS Group AG, on a standalone basis.

UBS Group AG issues loss-absorbing additional tier 1 capital instruments and TLAC-eligible senior unsecured debt.

UBS Group AG grants Deferred Contingent Capital Plan (DCCP) awards to UBS Group employees which qualify as Basel III AT1 capital on a UBS Group consolidated basis and totaled USD 1,814m as of 30 June 2022 (31 December 2021: USD 1,731m). The related liabilities of UBS Group AG on a standalone basis of USD 1,301m (31 December 2021: USD 1,370m) are not included in the table below, as these do not give rise to any current claims until the awards are legally vested.

As of 30 June 2022, the TLAC available on a UBS Group AG consolidated basis amounted to USD 106,249m (31 December 2021: USD 104,783m).

Leverage ratio

Basel III leverage ratio

Quarterly | The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the BCBS) leverage ratio, as summarized in the “KM1: Key metrics“ table in section 2 of this report, is calculated by dividing the period-end tier 1 capital by the period-end leverage ratio denominator (the LRD).

The LRD consists of on-balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Derivative exposures are adjusted for a number of items, including replacement values and eligible cash variation margin netting, the current exposure method add-on for potential future exposure and net notional amounts for written credit derivatives. The LRD also includes an additional charge for counterparty credit risk related to securities financing transactions (SFTs).

The table below shows the difference between total IFRS assets per IFRS consolidation scope and the BCBS total on-balance sheet exposures. Those exposures are the starting point for calculating the BCBS LRD, as shown in the LR2 table in this section. The difference is due to the application of the regulatory scope of consolidation for the purpose of the BCBS calculation. In addition, carrying amounts for derivative financial instruments and SFTs are deducted from IFRS total assets. They are measured differently under BCBS leverage ratio rules and are therefore added back in separate exposure line items in the LR2 table.

Difference between the Swiss SRB and BCBS leverage ratio

Quarterly | The LRD is the same under Swiss systemically relevant bank (SRB) and BCBS rules. However, there is a difference in the capital numerator between the two frameworks. Under BCBS rules only common equity tier 1 and additional tier 1 capital are included in the numerator. Under Swiss SRB rules UBS is required to meet going and gone concern leverage ratio requirements. Therefore, depending on the requirement, the numerator includes tier 1 capital instruments, tier 2 capital instruments and / or total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC)-eligible senior unsecured debt.

Quarterly | During the second quarter of 2022, the LRD decreased by USD 47.5bn to USD 1,025.4bn, including currency effects of USD 27.3bn. On-balance sheet exposures (excluding derivatives and SFTs) decreased by USD 40.5bn, mainly driven by lower central bank balances in Group Treasury and trading portfolio assets in the Investment Bank, as well as decreases in lending assets in Personal & Corporate Banking and Global Wealth Management. Derivative exposures increased by USD 2.4bn, mainly driven by the Investment Bank, reflecting market-driven movements and higher margin requirements, partly offset by decreases due to lower client activity levels. Securities financing transactions decreased by USD 7.8bn, mainly due to excess cash reinvestment trade roll-offs in Group Treasury, as well as a decrease resulting from improved collateralization in the Investment Bank.

High-quality liquid assets

Quarterly | HQLA must be easily and immediately convertible into cash at little or no loss of value, especially during a period of stress. HQLA are assets that are of low risk and are unencumbered. Other characteristics of HQLA are ease and certainty of valuation, low correlation with risky assets, listing of the assets on a developed and recognized exchange, existence of an active and sizable market for the assets, and low volatility. Our HQLA predominantly consist of assets that qualify as Level 1 in the LCR framework, including cash, central bank reserves and government bonds.

LCR development during the second quarter of 2022

Quarterly | In the second quarter of 2022, the quarterly average LCR of UBS Group increased 1 percentage point to 161%, remaining above the prudential requirement communicated by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA).

The movement in the average LCR was driven by a decrease in net cash outflows of USD 3bn to USD 155bn due to lower outflows from customer deposit balances, partly offset by a decrease in HQLA of USD 3bn to USD 249bn, mainly reflecting lower average cash balances, driven by debt maturities and decreases in customer deposits, partly offset by lower funding consumption in the business divisions.

Net stable funding ratio

NSFR development during the second quarter of 2022

Semi-annual | As of 30 June 2022, the NSFR of UBS Group decreased 1 percentage point to 121%, remaining above the prudential requirement communicated by FINMA.

The movement in the NSFR was driven by USD 18bn lower available stable funding, mainly due to a decrease in customer deposit balances, partly offset by lower required stable funding of USD 11bn, mainly due to a decrease in trading assets.

Requirements for global systemically important banks and related indicators

Semi-annual | The Financial Stability Board (the FSB) has determined that UBS is a global systemically important bank (a G-SIB), using an indicator-based methodology adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the BCBS). Banks that qualify as G-SIBs are required to disclose 12 indicators for assessing the systemic importance of G-SIBs as defined by the BCBS. These indicators are used for the G-SIB score calculation and cover five categories: size, cross-jurisdictional activity, interconnectedness, substitutability / financial institution infrastructure, and complexity.

Based on the published indicators, G-SIBs are subject to additional common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital buffer requirements in the range from 1.0% to 3.5%. In November 2021, the FSB confirmed that, based on the year-end 2020 indicators, the additional CET1 capital buffer requirement for UBS Group will remain at 1.0%. As our Swiss systemically relevant bank (SRB) Basel III capital requirements exceed the BCBS requirements, including the G-SIB buffer, we are not affected by these additional G-SIB requirements.

In July 2018, the BCBS published a revised version of its assessment methodology. This will come into effect in the second half of 2022, based on year-end 2021 data, with the corresponding capital buffer requirement applied as of January 2024. We do not expect these changes to increase our additional CET1 capital buffer requirement.

The BCBS introduced a leverage ratio buffer for G-SIBs as a part of the finalization of the Basel III framework announced in December 2017. The leverage ratio buffer is set at 50% of risk-weighted higher-loss absorbency requirements. The revised BCBS standards will be effective as of 1 January 2023. We do not expect these changes to increase our additional CET1 capital buffer requirement.

Our G-SIB indicators as of 31 December 2021 were published in July 2022 under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors.

Scope of disclosures in this section

Quarterly | The sections on the following pages include capital and other regulatory information as of 30 June 2022 for UBS AG standalone, UBS Switzerland AG standalone, UBS Europe SE consolidated and UBS Americas Holding LLC consolidated. Capital information in the following sections is based on Pillar 1 capital requirements. Entities may be subject to significant additional Pillar 2 requirements, which represent additional amounts of capital considered necessary and are agreed with regulators based on the risk profile of the respective entity.

UBS Americas Holding LLC consolidated

Dodd–Frank Act Stress Test

In June 2022, the Federal Reserve Board (the FRB) released the results of its 2022 Dodd–Frank Act Stress Test (DFAST). UBS’s US intermediate holding company, UBS Americas Holding LLC, exceeded the minimum capital requirements under the severely adverse scenario.

Key metrics of the second quarter of 2022

Quarterly | The table on the following page is based on Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) Basel III rules.

During the second quarter of 2022, common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital increased by USD 1.9bn to USD 54.1bn, mainly due to operating profit before tax, partly offset by additional accruals for capital returns to UBS Group AG. Tier 1 capital increased by USD 1.6bn to USD 68.2bn, primarily driven by the aforementioned increase in CET1 capital, partly offset by interest rate risk hedge and foreign currency translation effects. Total capital increased by USD 1.1bn to USD 68.7bn, reflecting the aforementioned increase in tier 1 capital, partly offset by a decrease in the remaining eligibility of a USD 2.5bn tier 2 capital instrument.

Phase-in risk-weighted assets (RWA) decreased by USD 2.6bn to USD 327.8bn during the second quarter of 2022, primarily driven by decreases in credit and counterparty credit risk and participation RWA, partly offset by increases in market risk and operational risk RWA.

Leverage ratio exposure decreased by USD 25.1bn to USD 569.8bn, mainly driven by lower trading portfolio assets and securities financing transactions, as well as a decrease in central bank balances.

Correspondingly, the CET1 capital ratio of UBS AG increased 0.7 percentage points to 16.5%, predominantly reflecting the increase in CET1 capital. The firm’s Basel III leverage ratio increased 0.8 percentage points to 12.0%, reflecting the lower leverage ratio exposure and the increase in tier 1 capital.

In the second quarter of 2022, the quarterly average liquidity coverage ratio (the LCR) of UBS AG increased 1 percentage point to 189%, remaining above the prudential requirement communicated by FINMA. The movement in the average LCR was driven by an increase in high-quality liquid assets of USD 1.5bn to USD 104.6bn, due to reduced funding consumption by the business divisions, partly offset by matured debt. Average net cash outflows remained largely stable at USD 55.4bn.

As of 30 June 2022, the net stable funding ratio (the NSFR) of UBS AG increased 1 percentage point to 92%, remaining above the prudential requirement communicated by FINMA. The movement in the NSFR was driven by a decrease in required stable funding of USD 9.8bn to USD 265.6bn, mainly due to a decrease in trading assets. This was, partly offset by a decrease in available stable funding of USD 5.0bn to USD 244.8bn, mainly driven by lower customer deposit balances.

1 The fully loaded ECL accounting model excludes the transitional relief of recognizing ECL allowances and provisions in CET1 capital in accordance with FINMA Circular 2013/1 “Eligible capital – banks.”    2 From 1 January 2022, certain tier 2 capital positions have been phased out of total capital under BIS rules into gone concern capital, resulting in a decrease of total capital of USD 0.4bn. The prior period has been restated accordingly.    3 Based on phase-in rules for RWA. Refer to “Swiss SRB going and gone concern requirements and information” on the next page for more information.    4 Calculated as 8% of total RWA, based on total capital minimum requirements, excluding CET1 buffer requirements.    5 Swiss SRB going and gone concern requirements and information for UBS AG standalone are provided on the following pages in this section.    6 Calculated after the application of haircuts and inflow and outflow rates, as well as, where applicable, caps on Level 2 assets and cash inflows. Calculated based on an average of 64 data points in the second quarter of 2022 and 64 data points in the first quarter of 2022. For the prior-quarter data points, refer to the respective Pillar 3 Report, available under “Pillar 3 disclosures” at ubs.com/investors, for more information.    7 In accordance with Art. 17h para. 3 and 4 of the Liquidity Ordinance, UBS AG standalone is required to maintain a minimum NSFR of at least 80% without taking into account excess funding of UBS Switzerland AG and 100% after taking into account such excess funding. Refer to the “Introduction and basis for preparation” section of our 31 December 2021 Pillar 3 Report for more information.

1 Net exposures for direct and indirect investments including holding of regulatory capital instruments in Switzerland-domiciled subsidiaries and for direct and indirect investments including holding of regulatory capital instruments in foreign-domiciled subsidiaries are risk-weighted at 220% and 280%, respectively, for the current year (31 December 2021: 215% and 260%, respectively). Risk weights will gradually increase 5 percentage points per year for Switzerland-domiciled investments and 20 percentage points per year for foreign-domiciled investments until the fully applied risk weights of 250% and 400%, respectively, are applied.

Key metrics of the second quarter of 2022

Quarterly | The table on the following page is based on Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) Basel III rules and International Financial Reporting Standards.

During the second quarter of 2022, common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital decreased by CHF 0.1bn to CHF 12.7bn, mainly reflecting operating profit that was more than offset by additional accruals for dividends.

Total risk-weighted assets (RWA) decreased by CHF 0.7bn to CHF 107.3bn. An increase of CHF 0.7bn in pre-floor RWA, mainly due to residential mortgages, was more than offset by a CHF 1.5bn decrease in the floor adjustment, mainly reflecting lower RWA from securities financing transactions under the standardized approach.

Leverage ratio exposure decreased by CHF 5.1bn to CHF 341.0bn, mainly driven by lower securities financing transactions.

In the second quarter of 2022, the quarterly average liquidity coverage ratio (the LCR) of UBS Switzerland AG decreased 1 percentage point to 141%, remaining above the prudential requirement communicated by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). The movement in the average LCR was driven by a decrease in high-quality liquid assets of CHF 1.2bn to CHF 93.7bn, mainly due to lower cash balances driven by decreased customer deposit balances, partly offset by a decrease in net cash outflows of CHF 0.7bn to CHF 66.2bn due to lower outflows from customer deposits.

As of 30 June 2022, the net stable funding ratio (the NSFR) of UBS Switzerland AG increased 1 percentage point to 144%, remaining above the prudential requirement communicated by FINMA. The movement in the NSFR was driven by a decrease in required stable funding of CHF 3.6bn to CHF 156.2bn, mainly due to lower derivative instruments and loans to customers, almost entirely offset by a decrease in available stable funding of CHF 3.6bn to CHF 225.2bn, mainly due to lower customer deposit balances.

UBS Europe SE consolidated

Quarterly | The table below provides information about the regulatory capital components, capital ratios, leverage ratio and liquidity of UBS Europe SE consolidated based on Pillar 1 requirements and in accordance with EU regulatory rules and International Financial Reporting Standards.

During the second quarter of 2022, common equity tier 1 decreased slightly by EUR 0.3bn to EUR 2.4bn, due to the payment of a dividend offset by the inclusion of profit from the 2021 audited financial statements. Total capital remained stable, due to the issuance of additional tier 1 capital of 0.3bn. Risk-weighted assets decreased by EUR 0.8bn to EUR 11.5bn, mainly driven by a decrease in credit risk. Leverage ratio exposure decreased by EUR 4.9bn to EUR 47.4bn, mainly reflecting decreases in securities financing transactions and cash with central banks.

The average liquidity coverage ratio was broadly stable at 165.8%, with a EUR 1.1bn increase in high-quality liquid assets and a EUR 0.9bn increase in net outflows. The net stable funding ratio decreased to 148.3%, with a EUR 0.8bn decrease in available stable funding and a EUR 0.7bn increase in required stable funding.

UBS Americas Holding LLC consolidated

Quarterly | The table below provides information about the regulatory capital components, capital ratios, leverage ratio and liquidity of UBS Americas Holding LLC consolidated, based on Pillar 1 requirements and in accordance with US Basel III rules and US generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Effective 1 October 2021, and through 30 September 2022, UBS Americas Holding LLC is subject to a stress capital buffer (an SCB) of 7.1%, in addition to the minimum capital requirements. The SCB was determined by the Federal Reserve Board following the completion of the 2021 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (the CCAR) based on Dodd–Frank Act Stress Test (DFAST) results and planned future dividends. Based on the results of the 2022 CCAR, the SCB has been adjusted to 4.8% effective 1 October 2022. The SCB, which replaces the static capital conservation buffer of 2.5%, is subject to change on an annual basis or as otherwise determined by the Federal Reserve Board.

During the second quarter of 2022, common equity tier 1 (CET1) decreased by USD 0.5bn, primarily due to the payment of a dividend to UBS AG. Risk-weighted assets (RWA) increased by USD 2.0bn to USD 74.7bn, mainly driven by an increase in credit risk. Leverage ratio exposure, calculated on an average basis, increased by USD 0.8bn to USD 198.3bn primarily due to increased lending activity.

The average liquidity coverage ratio (the LCR) increased 5.8 percentage points, mainly driven by lower deposits generating a USD 1.3bn decrease in total net cash outflows over the second quarter of 2022.
