Full Year
Net revenues in Global Banking & Markets were $32.49 billion, 12% lower than a strong 2021. Investment banking fees were $7.36 billion, 48% lower than a strong 2021, due to significantly lower net revenues in both Equity and Debt underwriting, reflecting a significant decline in industry-wide volumes, and lower net revenues in Advisory, reflecting a decline in industry-wide completed mergers and acquisitions transactions from elevated activity levels in the prior year.

					Asset & Wealth Management

Full Year
Net revenues in Asset & Wealth Management were $13.38 billion for 2022, 39% lower than 2021, primarily reflecting significantly lower net revenues in Equity investments and Debt investments. Broad macroeconomic and geopolitical concerns during the year led to a decline in global equity prices and wider credit spreads. As a result, net revenues in Equity investments reflected significantly lower net gains from investments in private equities and significant mark-to-market net losses from investments in public equities. The decrease in Debt investments net revenues reflected net mark-downs compared with net mark-ups in the prior year and lower net interest income. Incentive fees were significantly lower, primarily driven by harvesting in the prior year. Management and other fees were higher, reflecting the inclusion of NN Investment Partners (NNIP) and a reduction in fee waivers on money market funds. Private banking and lending net revenues were significantly higher, primarily reflecting higher deposit spreads, as well as higher loan and deposit balances.			2022 Asset & Wealth Management

The decrease in operating expenses compared with 2021 was primarily due to lower compensation and benefits expenses (reflecting a decline in operating performance compared with a strong prior year). This decrease was partially offset by the inclusion of NNIP and GreenSky, Inc. (GreenSky) and increases in transaction based expenses and technology expenses. Net provisions for litigation and regulatory proceedings for 2022 were $576 million compared with $534 million for 2021.

ROE is calculated by dividing net earnings (or annualized net earnings for annualized ROE) applicable to common shareholders by average monthly common shareholders' equity. ROTE is calculated by dividing net earnings (or annualized net earnings for annualized ROTE) applicable to common shareholders by average monthly tangible common shareholders' equity (tangible common shareholders' equity is calculated as total shareholders' equity less preferred stock, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets). Management believes that ROTE is meaningful because it measures the performance of businesses consistently, whether they were acquired or developed internally, and that tangible common shareholders' equity is meaningful because it is a measure that the firm and investors use to assess capital adequacy. ROTE and tangible common shareholders' equity are non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The table below presents a reconciliation of average common shareholders' equity to average tangible common shareholders' equity:

6.

In the third quarter of 2022, based on regulatory feedback, the firm revised certain interpretations of the Capital Rules underlying the calculation of Standardized risk-weighted assets and Advanced risk-weighted assets. As of December 31, 2021, this change would have increased both Standardized risk-weighted assets and Advanced risk-weighted assets by approximately $6 billion to $683 billion and $654 billion, respectively. These increases would have reduced the firm's Standardized Common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio of 14.2% by 0.1 percentage points and reduced the firm's Advanced CET1 capital ratio of 14.9% by 0.2 percentage points.
