Return on capital at UBS’s investment bank took a hit in the second quarter, as risk charges surged to their highest level in nearly two years, compounding a drop in revenue.

Risk-weighted assets (RWAs) allocated to the division rose 2% to $99.9 billion – the highest since March 2020 – in the three months to end-June, outpacing a 1% increase for the bank as a whole.
