Net Revenues
Net revenues were $18.68 billion for the third quarter of 2026, 23% higher than the third quarter of 2025 and 8% lower than the second quarter of 2026. The increase compared with the third quarter of 2025 primarily reflected significantly higher net revenues in Global Banking & Markets.

Global Banking & Markets
Net revenues in Global Banking & Markets were $13.46 billion for the third quarter of 2026, 32% higher than the third quarter of 2025 and 13% lower than the second quarter of 2026.
Investment banking fees were $3.22 billion, 21% higher than the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher net revenues in Advisory, reflecting an increase in completed mergers and acquisitions volumes, and significantly higher net revenues in Equity underwriting, primarily reflecting higher net revenues from initial public offerings and secondary offerings. Net revenues in Debt underwriting were also higher, primarily reflecting significantly higher net revenues from investment-grade activity. The firm’s Investment banking fees backlog3 decreased compared with the end of the second quarter of 2026 and decreased slightly compared with the end of 2025.
Net revenues in Fixed Income, Currency and Commodities (FICC) were $3.47 billion, essentially unchanged compared with the third quarter of 2025. Net revenues in FICC intermediation were lower, due to significantly lower net revenues in mortgages and credit products and lower net revenues in interest rate products, partially offset by significantly higher net revenues in currencies and commodities. Net revenues in FICC financing were higher, primarily due to higher net revenues in mortgages and structured lending.
Net revenues in Equities were $6.44 billion, 72% higher than the third quarter of 2025, due to significantly higher net revenues in Equities financing (driven by significantly higher net revenues in prime financing and portfolio financing) and in Equities intermediation (primarily driven by significantly higher net revenues in derivatives).
Net revenues in Other were $322 million, compared with $282 million for the third quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting higher net revenues in transaction banking.

Asset & Wealth Management
Net revenues in Asset & Wealth Management were $5.05 billion for the third quarter of 2026, 14% higher than the third quarter of 2025 and 10% higher than the second quarter of 2026. The increase compared with the third quarter of 2025 reflected significantly higher Management and other fees and Incentive fees, partially offset by significantly lower net revenues in Investments and Private banking and lending.
The increase in Management and other fees primarily reflected the impact of higher average assets under supervision. The increase in Incentive fees was driven by fund distributions. The decrease in Investments net revenues included net markdowns in debt investments compared with net markups in the prior year period. The decrease in Private banking and lending net revenues reflected the payment of interest on a previously impaired loan in the prior year period.

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts or statements of current conditions, but instead represent only the firm’s beliefs regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside of the firm’s control. It is possible that the firm’s actual results, financial condition and liquidity may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results, financial condition and liquidity in these forward-looking statements.
