UBS Group (AMUB) outlines Q2 2026 Basel III capital, TLAC and liquidity position
UBS Group provides its 30 June 2026 Basel III Pillar 3 risk and capital disclosures, detailing regulatory metrics for the Group and key subsidiaries under Swiss FINMA and BCBS rules.
Common equity tier 1 capital was USD 72.5bn with a CET1 ratio of 14.38% on risk‑weighted assets of USD 503.9bn. Tier 1 capital was USD 96.0bn and total loss‑absorbing capacity USD 193.6bn. The Basel III leverage ratio was 5.82% on a leverage exposure of USD 1,649.8bn. The liquidity coverage ratio averaged 177.3% and the net stable funding ratio was 115.1%, both above FINMA’s prudential requirements.
RWA rose by USD 3.6bn in the quarter, mainly from market risk and asset‑size effects, partly offset by model and methodology changes and currency movements. UBS reserved USD 3.0bn in CET1 for a new share repurchase program (targeting USD 3bn by Q2 2027) and plans to buy back at least USD 1bn of shares over the next three months while aiming to maintain a CET1 ratio of around 14%.
