As a result, total earning assets and total assets of the businesses may not equal total Consumer Banking.

Consumer Banking, comprised of Deposits and Consumer Lending, offers a diversified range of credit, banking and investment products and services to consumers and small businesses. Deposits and Consumer Lending include the net impact of migrating customers and their related deposit, brokerage asset and loan balances between Deposits, Consumer Lending and GWIM, as well as other client-managed businesses. Our customers and clients have access to a coast-to-coast network including financial centers in 39 states and the District of Columbia. As of December 31, 2024, our network includes approximately 3,700 financial centers, approximately 15,000 ATMs, nationwide call centers and leading digital banking platforms with approximately 48 million active users, including approximately 40 million active mobile users.

Consumer Banking Results

Net income for Consumer Banking decreased $834 million to$10.8 billion primarily due to higher noninterest expense and lower revenue, partially offset by lower provision for credit losses. Net interest income decreased $611 million to $33.1 billion primarily driven by lower deposit balances, partially offset by higher loan balances. Noninterest income increased $16 million to $8.4 billion, relatively unchanged from the same period a year ago.

The provision for credit losses decreased $171 million to $5.0 billion primarily driven by lower overdraft losses from fraud activity. Noninterest expense increased $688 million to$22.1 billion primarily driven by investments in the business, including

operations, technology and people.

The return on average allocated capital was 25 percent, down from 28 percent, due toan increase in allocated capital and lower net income. For information on capital allocated to the business segments, see Business Segment Operations on page 35.

Deposits includes the results of consumer deposit activities that consist of a comprehensive range of products provided to consumers and small businesses. Our deposit products include noninterest- and interest-bearing checking accounts, money market savings accounts, traditional savings accounts, CDs and IRAs, as well as investment accounts and products. Net interest income is allocated to deposit products using our funds transfer pricing process that matches assets and liabilities with similar interest rate sensitivity and maturity characteristics. Deposits generates fees such as account service fees, non-sufficient funds fees, overdraft charges and ATM fees, as well as investment and brokerage fees from Consumer Investment accounts. Consumer Investments serves investment client relationships through the Merrill Edge integrated investing and banking service platform, providing investment advice and guidance, client brokerage asset services, self-directed online investing and key banking capabilities including access to the Corporation’s network of financial centers and ATMs.

Consumer Lending

Consumer Lending offers products to consumers and small businesses across the U.S. The products offered include debit and credit cards, residential mortgages and home equity loans, and direct and indirect loans such as automotive, recreational vehicle and consumer personal loans.

Consumer Lending products are available to our customers through our retail network, direct telephone, and online and mobile channels. Consumer Lending results also include the impact of servicing residential mortgages and home equity loans, including loans held on the balance sheet of Consumer Lending and loans serviced for others.

Net income for Consumer Lending increased$334 million to $3.2 billion primarily driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher noninterest expense. Net interest income increased$717 million to $11.9 billion primarily due to the impact of higher loan balances. Noninterest income increased$85 million to $5.5 billion, primarily driven by higher card income.

The provision for credit losses was$4.7 billion, relatively unchanged from the same period a year ago. Noninterest expense increased$339 million to$8.4 billion primarily driven by investments in the business, including operations, technology and people.
