05:38 EDTUBSUBS sees Q4 loss of CHF 2.0B - CHF 2.5B
UBS said it believes its Q4 net profit attributable to shareholders will show a loss in the approximate range of CHF 2.0B - CHF 2.5B, primarily as a result of: total provisions for litigation and regulatory matters, including the LIBOR settlements, of approximately CHF 2.1B; restructuring charges of approximately CHF 0.5B; and an own credit loss on financial liabilities designated at fair value of approximately CHF 0.4B. On an adjusted basis, UBS expects to report a pre-tax profit in the approximate range of CHF 2.5B-3.0B for the year. The bank added, "We are encouraged by the progress we have seen in the quarter to date on both RWA reduction and balance sheet deleveraging. Net new money is expected to be positive in the quarter as we have seen good flows in our Wealth Management and Wealth Management Americas businesses, while we have seen net outflows in Global Asset Management. Our Basel III phase-in common equity tier 1 ratio is expected to improve to around 14% by quarter-end and our fully applied Basel III common equity tier 1 ratio, inclusive of the effects from early adopting IAS 19R in the fourth quarter, is expected to be roughly in line with the third quarter's level of 9.3%."

12:32 EDTUBSEU bank stress test delayed until 2014 by regulator
The EBA agreed on recommendations to supervisors to conduct asset quality reviews on major EU banks. While banks’ capital positions were significantly strengthened under the EBA’s recapitalisation exercise, the objective of the asset quality exercises will be to review banks’ classifications and valuations of their assets so to help dispel concerns over the deterioration of asset quality due to macroeconomic conditions in Europe. Since appropriately reviewed balance sheets are a key input to an effective stress test, the EBA has also adjusted the timeline of the next EU-wide stress test so to conduct the exercise in 2014 once the asset quality reviews are completed. However, to ensure transparency and comparability over the years, the EBA will provide, in 2H, appropriate disclosure on the actual exposures of the EU banking sector. Reference Link
