Increased Economic Capital Average Economic Capital (1) ($Bn) Institutional Securities Total Firm Source: Company SEC Filings and 2Q07 Financial Supplement Notes: (1) The Company uses an economic capital model to determine the amount of equity capital needed to support the risk of its business activities to ensure that the Company remains adequately capitalized. Economic capital is defined as the amount of capital needed to run the business through the business cycle and satisfy the requirements of regulators, rating agencies and the market. The Company's methodology is based on a going concern approach that assigns economic capital to each segment based on regulatory capital usage plus additional capital for stress losses, goodwill and principal investment risk. The economic capital model and allocation methodology may be enhanced over time in response to changes in the business and regulatory environment. (2) Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2007, economic capital requirements have been met by regulatory Tier 1 equity (including common shareholders' equity, certain preferred stock, eligible hybrid capital instruments and deductions of goodwill and certain intangible assets and deferred tax assets), subject to regulatory limits. The Tier 1 equity components are also reflected in the average common equity allocated to the business segments. This enhancement to the Company's equity capital model and related disclosures will be made on a prospective basis.
