major
 
areas:

(which
 
consists

Chief

Portfolio.
 
Financial
 
information
 
about
 
the
 
four
 
business
 
divisions
 
and
 
Group
 
Functions
 
is
 
presented
 
separately
 
in
 
internal
management reports to the Group
 
Executive Board (the GEB),
 
which is considered the “chief operating decision maker”
pursuant to IFRS 8,
Operating Segments
.
UBS’s
 
internal
 
accounting
 
policies,
 
which
 
include
 
management
 
accounting
 
policies
 
and
 
service
 
level
 
agreements,
determine
 
the
 
revenues
 
and
 
expenses
 
directly
 
attributable
 
to
 
each
 
reportable
 
segment.
 
Transactions
 
between
 
the
reportable segments are carried out
 
at internally agreed rates and are reflected in
 
the operating results of the reportable
segments.
 
Revenue-sharing
 
agreements
 
are
 
used
 
to
 
allocate
 
external
 
client
 
revenues
 
to
 
reportable
 
segments
 
where
several
 
reportable
 
segments
 
are
 
involved
 
in
 
the
 
value
 
creation
 
chain.
 
Total
 
intersegment
 
revenues
 
for
 
the
 
Group
 
are
immaterial, as the majority of
 
the revenues are allocated across
 
the segments by means
 
of revenue-sharing agreements.
Interest
 
income
 
earned
 
from
 
managing
 
UBS’s
 
consolidated
 
equity
 
is
 
allocated
 
to
 
the
 
reportable
 
segments
 
based
 
on
average attributed equity and currency composition. Assets and liabilities of the reportable segments are funded through
and invested with Group
 
Functions, and the net interest margin is reflected in
 
the results of each
 
reportable segment.
Segment
 
assets
 
are
 
based
 
on
 
a
 
third-party
 
view
 
and
 
do
 
not
 
include
 
intercompany
 
balances.
 
This
 
view
 
is
 
in
 
line
 
with
internal
 
reporting
 
to
 
the
 
GEB.
 
If one
 
operating
 
segment
 
is
 
involved
 
in
 
an
 
external
 
transaction
 
together
 
with
 
another
operating segment
 
or Group Functions,
 
additional criteria are considered
 
to determine the
 
segment that will
 
report the
associated
 
assets.
 
This
 
will
 
include
 
a
 
consideration
 
of
 
which
 
segment’s
 
business
 
needs
 
are
 
being
 
addressed
 
by
 
the
transaction
 
and
 
which
 
segment
 
is
 
providing
 
the
 
funding
 
and
 
/
 
or
 
resources.
 
Allocation
 
of
 
liabilities
 
follows
 
the
 
same
principles.
Non-current
 
assets disclosed
 
for segment
 
reporting
 
purposes
 
represent
 
assets that
 
are expected
 
to be
 
recovered
 
more
than
 
12
 
months
 
after
 
the
 
reporting
 
date,
 
excluding
 
financial
 
instruments,
 
deferred
 
tax
 
assets
 
and
 
post-employment
benefits.

2 During 2022,
 
UBS refined
 
the methodology applied
 
to allocate
 
balance sheet
resources from Group Functions
 
to the business divisions,
 
with prospective effect. If the
 
new methodology had been
 
applied as of 31 December
 
2021, balance sheet assets allocated
 
to business divisions would
 
have
been USD
26
bn higher, of which USD
14
bn related to the Investment Bank.
 
3 Includes a USD
631
m net gain on the sale of a majority stake in Fondcenter AG (now Clearstream
 
Fund Centre AG), of which USD
571
m
was recognized in Asset
 
Management and USD
60
m was recognized in Global
 
Wealth Management.
The operating
 
regions shown
 
in the
 
table below
 
correspond
 
to the
 
regional
 
management structure
 
of the
 
Group. The
allocation of total revenues
 
to these regions reflects, and
 
is consistent with, the basis
 
on which the business
 
is managed
and its
 
performance is
 
evaluated. These
 
allocations
 
involve assumptions
 
and judgments
 
that management
 
considers to
be reasonable, and
 
may be refined to reflect
 
changes in estimates
 
or management
 
structure. The
 
main principles of the
allocation methodology are
 
that client revenues are
 
attributed to the
 
domicile of the
 
given client and
 
trading and portfolio
management revenues
 
are attributed
 
to the
 
country where
 
the
 
risk is
 
managed.
 
This revenue
 
attribution
 
is
 
consistent
with the mandate of the regional Presidents. Certain revenues,
 
such as those related to Non-core and Legacy Portfolio in
Group Functions, are
 
managed at a Group level. These revenues
 
are included in the
Global
 
line.
The geographic analysis of non-current
 
assets is based on
 
the location of
 
the entity
 
in which the given assets
 
are recorded.

m gain in Asset Management
 
related to the sale
 
of UBS AG’s
 
shareholding in Mitsubishi
 
Corp.-UBS Realty
 
Inc.
 
2 During 2022,
 
UBS AG refined the
 
methodology applied to
 
allocate balance
sheet resources from Group Functions to the business
 
divisions, with prospective
 
effect. If the new methodology had been applied as of 31
 
December 2021, balance sheet assets allocated to
 
business divisions would
have been USD
26
bn higher,
 
of which USD
14
bn related to the
 
Investment Bank.
 
3 Includes a
 
USD
631
m net gain on
 
the sale of a
 
majority stake in
 
Fondcenter AG
 
(now Clearstream
 
Fund Centre AG),
 
of which
USD
571
m was recognized in Asset
 
Management and USD
60
m was recognized in Global
 
Wealth Management.
The
 
operating
 
regions
 
shown
 
in
 
the
 
table
 
below
 
correspond
 
to
 
the
 
regional
 
management
 
structure
 
of
 
UBS
 
AG.
 
The
allocation of total revenues
 
to these regions reflects, and
 
is consistent with, the basis
 
on which the business
 
is managed
and its
 
performance is
 
evaluated. These
 
allocations
 
involve assumptions
 
and judgments
 
that management
 
considers to
be reasonable, and
 
may be refined to reflect
 
changes in estimates
 
or management
 
structure. The
 
main principles of the
allocation methodology are
 
that client revenues are
 
attributed to the
 
domicile of the
 
given client and
 
trading and portfolio
management revenues
 
are attributed
 
to the
 
country where
 
the
 
risk is
 
managed.
 
This revenue
 
attribution
 
is
 
consistent
with the mandate of the regional Presidents. Certain revenues,
 
such as those related to Non-core and Legacy Portfolio in
Group Functions, are
 
managed at a Group level. These revenues
 
are included in the
Global
 
line.
The geographic analysis of non-current
 
assets is based on
 
the location of
 
the entity
 
in which the given assets
 
are recorded.
