Credit Suisse Q3 Impacted by FX Changes, Restructuring and Litigation Costs; Lower Loan Provisions

Credit Suisse Group AG (CSG or the Group) reported CHF 546 million of net attributable income in Q3 2020, down 38% Year-on-Year (YoY) from CHF 881 million in Q3 2019 and down 53% sequentially from USD 1.2 billion in Q2 2020. Q3 results were negatively impacted by restructuring costs and higher litigation provisions as well as FX movement. The YoY decline was also influenced by significant one off gains in Q3 2019 which were not repeated in this quarter. On an adjusted basis, excluding these items and at constant exchange rates, Profit Before Taxes (PBT) were up 41% YoY compared to a decline of 30% on a reported basis.
