Personnel
Personnel expense, the largest category of our noninterest expense, increased by $81 million, or 11.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period one year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, personnel expense was up $144 million, or 10.4%, compared to the same period one year ago. The increases were driven by higher salaries, incentive and stock-based compensation reflective of current year merit increases, higher headcount and growth in the fee businesses.

(a)Excludes directors’ stock-based compensation of $2 million and $2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, and June 30, 2025, respectively, and $3 million and $2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively, reported as “other expense” in Figure 6.
Nonpersonnel expense
Other nonpersonnel expense includes net occupancy, computer processing, business services and professional fees, equipment, operating lease expense, marketing, and other miscellaneous expense categories. Other nonpersonnel expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026, decreased $18 million, or 4.0%, from the year-ago quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, other nonpersonnel expense decreased $31 million, or 3.4%, from the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decreases were driven by lower business services and professional fees, operating lease expense, marketing expense, and other miscellaneous expense categories, partially offset by slight increases in computer processing and equipment. Lower professional fees reflected reduced consulting and legal services in several areas, while lower operating lease expense reflected continued runoff of the operating lease portfolio.
