"Among other positive indicators, consumers are spending more, brokerage assets are up by double digits and our corporate clients are increasingly turning to us to help finance business expansion and merger activity. We are well positioned for further progress."

"During the quarter, our Basel 3 capital ratios improved and credit losses remained near historical lows," said Chief Financial Officer Bruce Thompson. "In addition, we did a good job managing expenses. Although litigation expenses were higher than the year-ago quarter, total noninterest expense, excluding litigation, declined 6 percent from the second quarter of 2013."(C)
