Introduction
General
This report as of June 30, 2021 is based on the revised Circular 2016/1 'Disclosure - banks' (FINMA circular) issued by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA (FINMA) on October 31, 2019. The revised FINMA circular includes the implementation of the revised Pillar 3 disclosure requirements issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) in August and December 2019.
This report is produced and published quarterly, in accordance with FINMA requirements. The reporting frequency for each disclosure requirement is either annual, semi-annual or quarterly. This document should be read in conjunction with the Pillar 3 and regulatory disclosures - Credit Suisse Group AG 4Q20 and 1Q21 as well as the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2020 and the Credit Suisse Financial Report 2Q21, which include important information on regulatory capital, risk management (specific references have been made herein to these documents) and regulatory developments and proposals.
Credit Suisse Group is the highest consolidated entity to which the FINMA circular applies.
These disclosures were verified and approved internally in line with our board-approved policy on disclosure controls and procedures. The level of internal control processes for these disclosures is similar to those applied to the Group's quarterly and annual financial reports. This report has not been audited by the Group's external auditors.
For certain prescribed table formats where line items have zero balances, such line items have not been presented.
This report reflects certain updates and corrections to prior period metrics, which have been noted in the relevant tabular disclosures, where applicable.
Other regulatory disclosures
In connection with the implementation of Basel III, certain regulatory disclosures for the Group and certain of its subsidiaries are required. The Group's Pillar 3 disclosure, regulatory disclosures, additional information on capital instruments, including the main features of regulatory capital instruments and total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC)-eligible instruments that form part of the eligible capital base and TLAC resources, Global systemically important bank (G-SIB) financial indicators, reconciliation requirements, leverage ratios and certain liquidity disclosures as well as regulatory disclosures for subsidiaries can be found on our website.

Risk-weighted assets
With the adoption of the revised FINMA circular, risk-weighted assets (RWA) presented in this report, including prior period comparisons, are based on the Swiss capital requirements.
> Refer to 'Swiss requirements' (page 53) in II - Treasury, risk, balance sheet and off-balance sheet - Capital management - Regulatory framework in the Credit Suisse Financial Report 2Q21 for further information on Swiss capital requirements.
The following table presents an overview of total Swiss RWA forming the denominator of the risk-based capital requirements. Further breakdowns of RWA are presented in subsequent sections of this report.
RWA of CHF 284.3 billion as of the end of 2Q21 decreased 6% compared to the end of 1Q21, mainly related to the movements in risk levels in credit risk and market risk and a foreign exchange impact. These decreases were partially offset by increases related to external model and parameter updates in operational risk.
RWA flow statements for credit risk, counterparty credit risk (CCR) and market risk are presented in subsequent parts of this report.
> Refer to 'Risk-weighted assets' (pages 56 to 57) in II - Treasury, risk, balance sheet and off-balance sheet - Capital management in the Credit Suisse Financial Report 2Q21 for further information on risk-weighted assets movements in 2Q21.

Credit risk
General
This section covers credit risk as defined by the Basel framework. CCR, including those that are in the banking book for regulatory purposes, and all positions subject to the securitization framework are presented in separate sections.
> Refer to 'Counterparty credit risk' (pages 22 to 29) for further information on the capital requirements relating to counterparty credit risk.
> Refer to 'Securitization' (pages 30 to 35) for further information on the securitization framework.
The Basel framework permits banks to choose between two broad methodologies in calculating their capital requirements for credit risk: the standardized approach (SA) or the internal ratings-based (IRB) approach. Off-balance-sheet items are converted into credit exposure equivalents through the use of credit conversion factors (CCF).
The reported credit risk arises from the execution of the Group's business strategy through the divisions and is predominantly driven by cash and balances with central banks, loans and commitments provided to corporate and institutional clients, loans to private clients including residential mortgages and lending against financial collateral.
Credit quality of assets
The amounts shown in the following tables are the US GAAP carrying values according to the regulatory scope of consolidation that are subject to the credit risk framework.
The following table presents a comprehensive picture of the credit quality of the Group's on and off-balance sheet assets.

Loans include all on-balance sheet exposures that give rise to a credit risk charge and are not limited to exposures that are recognized as net loans under US GAAP. Loans exclude debt securities, derivatives, securities financing transactions and off-balance sheet exposures.
2
Revocable loan commitments, which are excluded from the disclosed exposures, can attract risk-weighted assets.
The definitions of 'past due' and 'impaired' are aligned between accounting and regulatory purposes. However, there are some exemptions for impaired positions related to troubled debt restructurings where the default definition is different for accounting and regulatory purposes.
> Refer to 'Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies - Loans' (pages 283 to 285) and 'Note 20 - Financial instruments measured at amortized cost and credit losses' (pages 304 to 316) in VI - Consolidated financial statements - Credit Suisse Group in the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2020 and 'Note 19 - Financial instruments measured at amortized cost and credit losses' (pages 100 to 109) in III - Condensed consolidated financial statements - unaudited in the Credit Suisse Financial Report 2Q21 for further information on the CECL model under US GAAP, the classification of CECL-related provisions and the credit quality of loans, including past due and impaired loans.

The change in defaulted exposures was primarily related to the failure by Archegos Capital Management to meet its margin commitments.
Credit risk mitigation
Credit Suisse actively mitigates credit exposure through the use of legal netting agreements, security over supporting financial and non-financial collateral or financial guarantees and through the use of credit hedging techniques, primarily credit default swaps (CDS). The recognition of credit risk mitigation (CRM) against exposures is governed by a robust set of policies and processes that ensure enforceability and effectiveness.
The following table presents the use of CRM techniques. Credit Suisse recognizes the CRM effect of eligible collateral either as a reduction from the exposure at default (EAD) value of the secured instrument or as an adjustment to the probability of default (PD) or loss given default (LGD) associated with the exposure. All exposures that are secured through eligible collateral are disclosed as 'Net exposures partially or fully secured'. Eligible collateral amounts, regardless of which CRM technique has been applied, are disclosed as 'Exposures secured by collateral'. Exposures secured by credit derivatives do not include certain immaterial positions, where the credit derivative is recognized with an adjustment to the LGD.

Credit derivatives used as CRM techniques
The following table presents the effect on RWA of credit derivatives used as CRM techniques by portfolio.
For exposures covered by recognized credit derivatives, the substitution approach is applied, which means the risk weight of the obligor is substituted with the risk weight of the protection provider. The CRM effect is reflected according to the actual post-risk mitigation asset class for pre-credit derivatives and actual RWA. The table does not include the impact of certain immaterial positions where the credit derivative was recognized with an adjustment to LGD.

RWA flow statement of credit risk exposures under IRB
The following table presents the 2Q21 flow statement explaining the variations in the credit risk RWA determined under the IRB approach.
Credit risk RWA under IRB decreased CHF 8.4 billion to CHF 105.8 billion compared to the end of 1Q21, driven by decreases in risk levels attributable to asset size, decreases in risk levels attributable to asset quality and a negative foreign exchange impact. The decrease in risk levels attributable to asset size was mainly driven by reduced commercial lending and mortgages.

Definition of risk-weighted assets movement components related to credit risk and CCR
Description Definition
Asset size Represents changes on the portfolio size arising in the ordinary course of business (including
new businesses). Asset size also includes movements arising from the application of the
comprehensive approach with regard to the treatment of financial collateral
Asset quality/credit quality of counterparties Represents changes in average risk weighting across credit risk classes
Model and parameter updates Represents movements arising from internally driven or externally mandated updates to models
and recalibrations of model parameters specific only to Credit Suisse
Methodology and policy changes Represents movements arising from externally mandated regulatory methodology and policy
changes to accounting and exposure classification and treatment policies not specific only
to Credit Suisse
Acquisitions and disposals Represents changes in book sizes due to acquisitions and disposals of entities
Foreign exchange impact Represents changes in exchange rates of the transaction currencies compared to the Swiss franc
Other Represents changes that cannot be attributed to any other category

Counterparty credit risk
General
Counterparty exposure
CCR arises from over-the-counter (OTC) and exchange-traded derivatives, as well securities financing transactions (SFTs), such as repurchase agreements, securities lending and borrowing and other similar products. CCR exposures depend on the value of underlying market factors, for example, interest rates and foreign exchange rates, which may be volatile.
Credit Suisse has received approval from FINMA to use the IMM for measuring CCR for the majority of the derivatives and the value-at-risk (VaR) model for SFTs.

The equity prime brokerage business consists of clients acquiring long and short positions in the market in a Credit Suisse account along with the appropriate margins. In the case of a counterparty default, Credit Suisse gains control over the long positions and are free to sell them to cover the exposure and the long positions are thus considered as 'collateral received'. On the other hand, the short positions are considered as 'trades' and are not reported in the disclosure as 'posted collateral'.

Market risk
General
We use the advanced approach for calculating the market risk capital requirements for the majority of our market risk exposures. As of June 30, 2021, 92% of our market risk RWA was computed using internal models.
Market risk under standardized approach
The following table shows the components of RWA under the standardized approach for market risk. In line with regulatory requirements, the standardized measurement method is used for the specific risk of securitized exposures.

RWA flow statements of market risk exposures under an IMA
The following table presents the 2Q21 flow statement explaining variations in the market risk RWA determined under an internal model approach (IMA).
Market risk RWA under an IMA decreased CHF 2.0 billion to CHF 18.3 billion compared to the end of 1Q21, primarily due to a decrease in stressed VaR, incremental risk charge (IRC) and risks not in VaR reflecting a decrease in average risk levels, mainly across businesses within the Investment Bank.

Description Definition
RWA as of the end of the previous/current reporting periods Represents RWA at quarter-end
Regulatory adjustment Indicates the difference between RWA and RWA (end of day) at beginning and end of period
RWA as of the previous/current quarters end (end of day) For a given component (e.g., VaR) it refers to the RWA that would be computed if the snapshot
quarter end amount of the component determines the quarter end RWA, as opposed to a 60-day
average for regulatory
Movement in risk levels Represents movements due to position changes
Model and parameter updates Represents movements arising from internally driven or externally mandated updates to models
and recalibrations of model parameters specific only to Credit Suisse
Methodology and policy changes Represents movements arising from externally mandated regulatory methodology and policy
changes to accounting and exposure classification and treatment policies not specific only
to Credit Suisse
Acquisitions and disposals Represents changes in book sizes due to acquisitions and disposals of entities
Foreign exchange impact Represents changes in exchange rates of the transaction currencies compared to the Swiss franc
Other Represents changes that cannot be attributed to any other category

IMA approach values for trading portfolios
The following table presents the maximum, minimum, average and period-end values resulting from the different types of models used for computing regulatory capital charges at the Group level, before any additional capital charge is applied.

in / end of 1H21 2H20
CHF million
Regulatory VaR (10 day 99%)
Maximum value 178 123
Average value 144 98
Minimum value 118 81
Period-end value 127 123
Stressed VaR (10 day 99%)
Maximum value 247 179

IRC (99.9%)
Maximum value 199 208
Average value 147 152
Minimum value 111 112
Period-end value 136 187
During 1H21, the decreases in period-end IRC was primarily driven by the reduced traded credit exposures within the Investment Bank.
Comparison of VaR estimates with gains/losses
The following chart compares the results of estimates from the regulatory VaR model with both hypothetical and actual trading outcomes.
Backtesting involves comparing the results produced by the VaR model with the hypothetical trading revenues on the trading book. Hypothetical trading revenues are defined in compliance with regulatory requirements and aligned with the VaR model output by excluding (i) non-market elements (such as fees, commissions, cancellations and terminations, net cost of funding and credit-related valuation adjustments) and (ii) gains and losses from intra-day trading. A backtesting exception occurs when a hypothetical trading loss exceeds the daily VaR estimate.
For capital purposes and in line with Bank for International Settlements (BIS) requirements, FINMA increases the capital multiplier for every regulatory VaR backtesting exception above four in the prior rolling 12-month period, resulting in an incremental market risk capital requirement for the Group. VaR models with less than five backtesting exceptions are considered by regulators to be classified in a defined 'green zone'. The 'green zone' corresponds to backtesting results that do not themselves suggest a problem with the quality or accuracy of a bank's model.
In 1H21, there were no backtesting exceptions in our regulatory VaR model. Since there were fewer than five backtesting exceptions in the rolling 12-month period through the end of 2Q21, in line with BIS industry guidelines, the bank is in the 'green zone'.

Cautionary statement regarding forward-looking information
This document contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. In addition, in the future we, and others on our behalf, may make statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements relating to the following:
■ our plans, targets or goals;
■ our future economic performance or prospects;
■ the potential effect on our future performance of certain contingencies; and
■ assumptions underlying any such statements.
Words such as 'believes,' 'anticipates,' 'expects,' 'intends' and 'plans' and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements.
By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks exist that predictions, forecasts, projections and other outcomes described or implied in forward-looking statements will not be achieved. We caution you that a number of important factors could cause results to differ materially from the plans, targets, goals, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements and that the COVID-19 pandemic creates significantly greater uncertainty about forward-looking statements in addition to the factors that generally affect our business. These factors include:
■ the ability to maintain sufficient liquidity and access capital markets;
■ market volatility and interest rate fluctuations and developments affecting interest rate levels, including the persistence of a low or negative interest rate environment;
■ the strength of the global economy in general and the strength of the economies of the countries in which we conduct our operations, in particular the risk of negative impacts of COVID-19 on the global economy and financial markets and the risk of continued slow economic recovery or downturn in the EU, the US or other developed countries or in emerging markets in 2021 and beyond;
■ the emergence of widespread health emergencies, infectious diseases or pandemics, such as COVID-19, and the actions that may be taken by governmental authorities to contain the outbreak or to counter its impact;
■ potential risks and uncertainties relating to the severity of impacts from COVID-19 and the duration of the pandemic, including potential material adverse effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations;
■ the direct and indirect impacts of deterioration or slow recovery in residential and commercial real estate markets;
■ adverse rating actions by credit rating agencies in respect of us, sovereign issuers, structured credit products or other credit-related exposures;
■ the ability to achieve our strategic goals, including those related to our targets, ambitions and financial goals;
■ the ability of counterparties to meet their obligations to us and the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses;
■ the effects of, and changes in, fiscal, monetary, exchange rate, trade and tax policies;
■ the effects of currency fluctuations, including the related impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations due to moves in foreign exchange rates;
■ political, social and environmental developments, including war, civil unrest or terrorist activity and climate change;
■ the ability to appropriately address social, environmental and sustainability concerns that may arise from our business activities;
■ the effects of, and the uncertainty arising from, the UK's withdrawal from the EU;
■ the possibility of foreign exchange controls, expropriation, nationalization or confiscation of assets in countries in which we conduct our operations;
■ operational factors such as systems failure, human error, or the failure to implement procedures properly;
■ the risk of cyber attacks, information or security breaches or technology failures on our reputation, business or operations, the risk of which is increased while large portions of our employees work remotely;
■ the adverse resolution of litigation, regulatory proceedings and other contingencies;
■ actions taken by regulators with respect to our business and practices and possible resulting changes to our business organization, practices and policies in countries in which we conduct our operations;
■ the effects of changes in laws, regulations or accounting or tax standards, policies or practices in countries in which we conduct our operations;
■ the expected discontinuation of LIBOR and other interbank offered rates and the transition to alternative reference rates;
■ the potential effects of changes in our legal entity structure;
■ competition or changes in our competitive position in geographic and business areas in which we conduct our operations;
■ the ability to retain and recruit qualified personnel;
■ the ability to maintain our reputation and promote our brand;
■ the ability to increase market share and control expenses;
■ technological changes instituted by us, our counterparties or competitors;
■ the timely development and acceptance of our new products and services and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users;
■ acquisitions, including the ability to integrate acquired businesses successfully, and divestitures, including the ability to sell non-core assets; and
■ other unforeseen or unexpected events and our success at managing these and the risks involved in the foregoing.
We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. When evaluating forward-looking statements, you should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and events, including the information set forth in 'Risk factors' in I - Information on the company in our Annual Report 2020 and in 'Risk factor' in I - Credit Suisse results - Credit Suisse in our 1Q21 Financial Report.
