Investment Banking segment
The
Investment Banking segment reported record income from continuing operations
before taxes of CHF 1,564 million in the first quarter of 2006, an increase of 68% compared to the first quarter of 2005. Net revenues were also at a record level, growing 44% compared to the same period of 2005 due to substantially higher investment banking revenues and trading revenues, driven by increased client activity. The segment's total operating expenses rose 38% compared to the first quarter of 2005, primarily reflecting higher compensation accruals in line with improved results. The compensation/revenue ratio improved by 2.0 percentage points to 53.5% in the first quarter of 2006 from 55.5% for the full-year 2005. Compared to the fourth quarter
of 2005, income from continuing operations before taxes grew by CHF 1,278 million. This significant improvement was driven mainly by 54% growth in net revenues. Total operating expenses rose 23% from the previous quarter due primarily to higher compensation accruals in line with improved results, partly offset by lower other expenses. Investment Banking's pre-tax income margin was 27.2% for the first quarter of 2006, up 3.9 percentage points from the first quarter of 2005 and up 19.5 percentage points from the previous quarter. The pre-tax return on average economic risk capital was 42.0% in the first quarter of 2006, compared to 35.8% in the first quarter of 2005 and 10.3% in the previous quarter. Investment Banking recorded net releases of provisions for credit losses of CHF 55
million in the first quarter of 2006, reflecting the continued favorable credit environment for lenders. This compares to net releases of CHF 19
million in the first quarter of 2005 and of CHF 13 million in the previous quarter.
Private Banking segment
The
Private Banking segment recorded excellent income from continuing operations
before taxes of CHF 1,308
million in the first quarter of 2006, up 34% from the first quarter of 2005.
Net revenues grew 22% compared to the first quarter of 2005, primarily reflecting
a significant increase in commissions and fees as the segment proved its
ability to capitalize on the very strong client activity and market momentum.
Total operating expenses rose 14% from the first quarter of 2005, mainly
reflecting higher performance-related compensation accruals as well as personnel
expenses relating to strategic growth initiatives. Compared to the fourth
quarter of 2005, income from continuing operations before taxes rose 27%,
reflecting a 15% improvement in net revenues and a 6% rise in total operating
expenses. Private Banking recorded net releases of provisions
for credit losses of CHF 8 million in the first quarter of 2006. This compares
to net releases of CHF 16 million in the first quarter of 2005 and of
CHF 21 million in the previous quarter.

Asset Management segment
The

taxes of CHF 234 million in the firstquarter of 2006, an improvement of 13%
versus the first quarter of 2005. Net revenues
grew 23% compared to the corresponding period of 2005, primarily reflecting
stronger asset management revenues and higher private equity gains. Total
operating expenses rose 28% versus the first quarter of 2005 due to higher
performance-related compensation, higher commission expenses, costs associated
with the realignment of the Asset Management business and costs associated
with the branding implementation and related advertising costs. Compared
to the fourth quarter of 2005, income from continuing operations before taxes
declined 3%, reflecting stable net revenues and a marginal increase in total
operating expenses. Asset Management's pre-tax income margin was 31.0% for
the first quarter of 2006, down 2.9 percentage points from the first quarter
of 2005 and down 0.8 percentage points from the previous quarter. The

Net new assets

quarter of 2006, representing
an annualized growth rate of 8.4%. This strong asset generation was driven
by inflows from Switzerland, Europe and the Americas. Asset Management reported
CHF 17.0 billion of net new assets, driven mainly by money market products, fixed income, multi-asset class solution products and alternative investments which originated primarily from the US and Europe. Overall, Credit Suisse Group recorded CHF 31.1 billion of net new asset inflows in the first quarter of 2006. The Group’s total assets under management stood at CHF 1,553.6
billion as of March 31, 2006, an increase of 4.7% from December 31, 2005.

Winterthur recorded income from continuing operations before taxes of CHF 505 million in the first quarter of 2006, an increase of 21% versus the first quarter of 2005, reflecting continued operational improvements. Gross premiums written totaled CHF 10,657 million in the first quarter of 2006, representing growth of 7% compared to the first quarter of 2005. Total business volume was CHF 12,737 million, an increase of 11%. This growth was driven by the Life & Pensions business, where total business volume rose 18% as a result of a 13% increase in traditional business, primarily in Switzerland, and 39% growth in investment-type products, primarily in the UK. Net investment return backing traditional life policies and non-life policies decreased 0.5 percentage points to 4.8% in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the first quarter of 2005, reflecting a lower level of realized gains. Winterthur's total operating expenses decreased 3% in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the same period of 2005, primarily reflecting a decline in insurance underwriting and acquisition expenses. The Life & Pensions business reported an expense ratio of 4.2%, an improvement of 1.6 percentage points compared to the first quarter of 2005, as the total business volume grew strongly and expenses decreased. The Non-Life business recorded a combined ratio of 93.5%, an improvement of 3.2 percentage points versus the same period of 2005, due to generally favorable claims development. Winterthur's income from discontinued operations, net of tax, was CHF 23 million, driven mainly by the gain on the sale of the Canadian subsidiary, Citadel General Assurance Company, in the first quarter of 2006. Net income for the first quarter of 2006 was CHF 357 million, an increase of 42% compared to the first quarter of 2005, representing a return on equity of 15.0%, up 3.0 percentage points.
Outlook
Global growth looks set to continue through 2007. Credit Suisse Group does not expect interest rates to increase substantially before the end of the year. It expects a stable US dollar against major currencies.

Total investment banking revenues include debt underwriting, equity underwriting and advisory and other fees. In the first quarter of 2006, investment banking revenues totaled CHF 1,038 million, up CHF 403 million, or 63%, versus the first quarter of 2005, reflecting significant increases in both underwriting and advisory and other fees. In line with its strategy, Investment Banking continued to build on its industry-leading platform in the emerging markets. Among the many awards received in the quarter, Credit Suisse was named “Best Investment Bank in Latin America” by
Latin Finance
and was recognized for its leadership last year across investment banking products, particularly in the competitive equity underwriting market. This award provided further confirmation of Credit Suisse’s momentum in the region and commitment to providing best-in-class products throughout the emerging markets and globally.
Debt underwriting revenues in the first quarter of 2006 were CHF 456 million, up CHF 185 million, or 68%, compared to the first quarter of 2005. These results reflect higher revenues in leveraged finance, asset-backed securities and investment grade capital markets, with global industry-wide investment grade debt underwriting reaching record volumes and high-yield debt underwriting recovering from lower volumes in the three previous quarters, benefiting from strong global mergers and acquisitions activity. For the first quarter of 2006, Credit Suisse ranked third in global high-yield securities new issuance volumes. The high-yield market continued to be very competitive among the top firms. The overall leveraged finance franchise remained strong and corporate issuance continued the trend seen in 2005 with the shift from high-yield securities to the syndicated loan market. Investment Banking continued to focus on profitability rather than league table rankings in the investment grade capital markets business, consistent with its strategy to focus on high-margin products. Equity underwriting revenues in the first quarter of 2006 were CHF 249 million, up CHF 110 million, or 79%, compared to the first quarter of 2005, reflecting higher industry-wide equity issuance activity, including higher convertible securities activity, and improved market share. Equity underwriting revenues decreased 27% compared to the strong fourth quarter of 2005, due primarily to lower global industry-wide equity issuances. Credit Suisse ranked third for the first quarter of 2006 in global initial public offering market share. Credit Suisse participated in a number of key equity transactions in the quarter across a broad range of industries and geographies, including a convertible bond issue for Bayer AG and initial public offerings for QinetiQ Group plc (privatization of a UK provider of defense technology and security solutions) and Partners Group (one of the largest independent global alternative asset managers). In addition, Credit Suisse was the sole global coordinator for the privatization of Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacifico, S.A. de C.V. (a network of 12 national airport assets), Mexico’s largest initial public offering in fifteen years. |

Advisory and other fees of CHF 333 million in the first quarter of 2006 were up CHF 108 million, or 48%, compared to the first quarter of 2005, which was negatively impacted by lower announced transaction volumes in late 2004 and the timing of fees. Advisory and other fees declined 26% compared to the fourth quarter of 2005, due primarily to lower industry-wide completed mergers and acquisitions activity and lower market share. Credit Suisse ranked eleventh in global announced mergers and acquisitions and fourteenth in global completed mergers and acquisitions for the first quarter of 2006. Notable transactions announced in the first quarter of 2006 included Bayer AG’s acquisition of Schering AG, the sale of Pixar Animation Studios to the Walt Disney Company and the McClatchy Company’s acquisition of Knight-Ridder Inc.
Total trading revenues include results from fixed income and equity sales and trading. Total trading revenues for the first quarter of 2006 were CHF 4,844 million, up CHF 1,662 million, or 52%, versus the first quarter of 2005, due to strength in both fixed income and equity trading revenues and favorable market conditions. Total trading revenues increased 87% compared to the fourth quarter of 2005, reflecting improved results in both equity and fixed income trading. Investment Banking’s average daily VaR in the first quarter of 2006 was CHF 72 million, up from CHF 67 million in the first quarter of 2005 and up from CHF 71 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. Average ERC increased CHF 4.7 billion versus the first quarter of 2005 and CHF 0.8 billion versus the fourth quarter of 2005, in line with the strategy to extend incremental capital to support high-growth and high-margin activities with notable increases in the leveraged finance, structured products and proprietary trading businesses. Fixed income trading recorded revenues of CHF 2,767 million in the first quarter of 2006. These results were up CHF 651 million, or 31%, compared to the first quarter of 2005, reflecting strong results in leveraged finance, fixed income proprietary trading, Latin America trading and global foreign exchange positioning, partially offset by weaker results in other emerging markets trading, asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities. Fixed income markets in the first quarter of 2006 were generally favorable, with narrowing credit spreads and a substantial increase in new issue activity. The results in the first quarter of 2005 reflected a CHF 125 million positive adjustment to the valuation of over-the-counter derivatives in connection with enhancements to bring Credit Suisse’s estimates of fair value closer to how the dealer market prices such derivatives. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2005, fixed income trading revenues increased by 77%, due primarily to higher revenues in leveraged finance, residential mortgage-backed securities, emerging markets trading, global foreign exchange positioning and fixed income proprietary trading, partially offset by weaker results in commercial mortgage-backed securities. Interest rate products performed well despite the flat yield curve. Consistent with the strategy to grow the commodities business, Credit Suisse announced during the quarter a strategic alliance with Glencore International to build a derivatives and structured products trading business in the oil and petroleum products market. Equity trading revenues increased CHF 1,011 million, or 95%, and CHF 1,056 million, or 103%, to CHF 2,077 million, compared to the first quarter of 2005 and the fourth quarter of 2005, respectively. These significant increases reflected higher revenues across all major business areas amid strong markets. The customer flow businesses in cash and convertibles performed well across all regions. Equity proprietary trading exhibited strong results across most regions and strategies and equity derivatives benefited from increased deal flow and good trading results. Prime services continued to perform well with higher revenues in the quarter. Credit Suisse solidified its position as a Best in Class prime broker in the top tier of the market, according to the 2006 Global Custodian Prime Brokerage survey. In line with furthering Credit Suisse’s leading global emerging markets franchise, Credit Suisse and Standard Bank in South Africa announced a new joint venture known as Credit Suisse Standard Securities to focus on equities research, sales, trading and capital markets transactions in South Africa. The combination of Credit Suisse’s global equity franchise with Standard Bank’s local expertise will provide institutional clients with analysis and access to the South African equity market, which is a significant component of many emerging market indices. Other (including loan portfolio) recorded a loss of CHF 125 million for the first quarter of 2006 compared to revenues of CHF 177 million in the first quarter of 2005, due primarily to lower gains from private equity-related investments not managed as part of Asset Management and credit default swap losses related to the loan portfolio. Investment Banking selectively hedges the loan book using credit default swaps, which recorded weaker performance as a result of tightening credit spreads. |

Total operating expenses were CHF 520 million, an increase of CHF 114 million, or 28%, compared to the first quarter of 2005, reflecting higher performance-related compensation, higher commission expenses, costs associated with the realignment of the Asset Management business and costs associated with the branding implementation and related advertising costs.
Pre-tax income margin for the first quarter of 2006 was 31.0%, down 2.9 percentage points from the first quarter of 2005, with a 23% increase in net revenues offset by a 28% increase in total operating expenses. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2005, pre-tax income margin decreased 0.8 percentage points, reflecting stable net revenues and a slight increase in total operating expenses. Asset Management maintained its pre-tax income margin over the past year at a generally constant level, with the exception of the second quarter of 2005 which included exceptional private equity gains. Gross margin on assets under management amounted to 49.8 basis points in the first quarter of 2006, down 2.3 basis points from the first quarter of 2005, due to the inclusion of more than CHF 40 billion in low margin money market products in the fourth quarter of 2005 and the decrease in trading revenues. Pre-tax return on average economic risk capital was 77.7%, down 19.4 percentage points versus the first quarter of 2005. Average economic risk capital was higher in the first quarter of 2006, partly due to increased direct investments in alternative products. Asset Management has launched a number of initiatives to increase profitability. These initiatives will focus on improving client orientation, reducing the overall cost base and specifically targeting geographic regions with low profitability. |

Assets under management increased from CHF 589.4 billion as of December 31, 2005, to CHF 619.6 billion as of March 31, 2006, reflecting market and foreign exchange-related movements of CHF 13.2 billion and net new assets of CHF 17.0 billion. Net asset inflows of CHF 18.3 billion were partly offset by outflows of CHF 1.3 billion related to movements in the German real estate market. Net inflows were mainly from money market products, fixed income, multi-asset class solution products and alternative investments and originated mainly in the US and Europe. Of the net new assets recorded in the first quarter, approximately a third related to the reinvestment in the US of money market outflows in the fourth quarter of 2005.
Asset Management expects to benefit significantly from the integration of the banking businesses through focused collaboration within Credit Suisse. As a result of this focused collaboration, Asset Management won mandates with the help of the Investment Banking and Private Banking segments. In addition, Asset Management launched initiatives together with Private Banking to increase penetration of the private client base with discretionary mandates, which is expected to provide additional high-margin returns for Credit Suisse. As part of its strategy to develop its presence in Asia, Credit Suisse announced an agreement to form a joint venture in South Korea with Woori Asset Management, in which Credit Suisse will acquire a 30% stake. The venture combines Woori Asset Management's strong onshore distribution network with Credit Suisse's expertise and knowledge of global markets. In addition to proprietary channels in the US, registered funds of hedge funds are now being sold through third party retail channels, representing a significant growth opportunity for this product. |

The growth in total business volume was driven by the Life & Pensions business, which increased 18% to CHF 8,179 million as a result of a CHF 681 million, or 13%, growth in traditional business and a CHF 578 million, or 39%, growth in investment-type products. A strong increase in traditional single premiums in the group life business in Switzerland resulted from new contracts, transfers of vested benefits and additional contributions from individuals. The growth in traditional business was further driven by premium growth in the German life and health business as well as by an increase in annual premiums in Japan. The strong growth in investment-type products was mainly driven by the UK, reflecting both strong new business performance and an increased investment inflow in anticipation of UK tax law changes that will impact treatment of pension contributions effective in the second quarter of 2006. In addition, the growth in investment-type products reflected increased contributions from Asia and Central and Eastern Europe.
Gross premiums written in the Non-Life business remained stable at CHF 4,544 million, while net premiums earned grew 2% to CHF 2,107 million, benefiting from the strengthening of the US dollar. Premium growth was mainly achieved in Switzerland due to tariff increases and in Spain due to volume increases in the non-motor business. This growth was offset by a decline in Germany, resulting from both selective re-underwriting in the non-motor business and market pressure in the motor business. Management continues to take measures to address this market pressure, including the introduction of a new competitively priced product line in October 2005 and other product initiatives. Net current investment income and net realized gains/(losses) in the first quarter of 2006 increased CHF 688 million, or 37%, compared to the first quarter of 2005, primarily reflecting the market appreciation on the underlying assets backing the unit-linked policies, which was credited to policyholders' accounts. Net investment return backing traditional life policies and non-life policies decreased 0.5 percentage points to 4.8% compared to the first quarter of 2005, reflecting a lower level of realized gains. In the first quarter of 2006, total benefits, claims, dividends and credit losses increased CHF 1,377 million, or 17%, to CHF 9,359 million, compared to the first quarter of 2005. The increase in investment income credited to policyholder account balances amounted to CHF 717 million, primarily reflecting market appreciation. The higher traditional life premium income resulted in an increase in the change in provisions for policyholders' benefits incurred by CHF 506 million, or 7%. The increase in dividends to policyholders of CHF 151 million, or 33%, was mainly driven by the improved results in the group life business in Switzerland. Total operating expenses in the first quarter of 2006 decreased CHF 34 million, or 3%, compared to the first quarter of 2005. Insurance underwriting and acquisition expenses decreased CHF 36 million, or 7%, reflecting lower amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC) and present value of future profits (PVFP). Administration expenses increased 2%, a lower rate than total business volume, reflecting sustained strict cost management, with efficiency improvements in mature markets offsetting increased expenses in growth markets. |
