Results for the year ended 31 December 2025
Financial review RBSFinance
NWM Group reported a profit for the year ended 31 December 2025 of £275 million compared with a profit of £63 million for the year ended 31 December 2024. Higher income largely reflected a stronger performance in the Currencies and Capital Markets business lines. Operating expenses increased in 2025, as a decrease in litigation and conduct costs was more than offset by a rise in other operating expenses.
Highlights
Financial performance
- Income of £1,471 million in 2025 was up by £234 million compared with £1,237 million in 2024. The increase was largely driven by stronger performances in Currencies and Capital Markets, higher income from the profit share arrangement with fellow NatWest Group subsidiaries, one-off gains recognised in 2025 and lower foreign exchange (FX) reserves recycling losses. These increases were partially offset by lower revenues from Fixed Income.
- Operating expenses of £1,308 million increased by £100 million compared with £1,208 million in 2024. Litigation and conduct costs of £63 million reflected ongoing progress in closing legacy matters, including any associated conduct remediation activity, and were down by £39 million compared with £102 million in 2024. Other operating expenses of £1,245 million were £139 million higher than £1,106 million in 2024, largely driven by increases in technology investment costs and staff costs, lower VAT recoveries and a credit recognised in 2024 in relation to property charges.
- Total assets and total liabilities both decreased by £14.8 billion to £168.4 billion and £161.4 billion respectively at 31 December 2025, compared with the prior year. Derivative assets were down by £17.2 billion, largely reflecting FX volatility across major currencies including the weakening of USD in 2025, following contrasting trends in Q4 2024, and variations in interest rates across different currencies and tenors. Funded assets were up by £2.4 billion, mainly driven by increases in loans to customers and other financial assets.
Capital and leverage
- Total NWM Plc RWAs were £21.5 billion at 31 December 2025, compared with £20.8 billion at 31 December 2024. The increase in 2025 was mainly driven by higher credit risk, primarily reflecting growth in lending, and an increase in operational risk RWAs following the annual recalculation, including an acceleration from Q1 2026 to align with market practice. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in market risk which reflected active risk management.
- NWM Plc’s Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio was 18.4% at 31 December 2025, compared with 18.2% at 31 December 2024. The increase in the year was largely driven by higher CET1 capital, partially offset by the increase in RWAs.
- Total Minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) for NWM Plc at 31 December 2025 was £9.8 billion, compared with £10.0 billion at 31 December 2024. The decrease in total MREL in 2025 was largely due to a reduction in eligible capital, driven by the redemption of Additional Tier 1 (AT1) capital notes with NatWest Group plc of $1.15 billion, partially offset by the issuance of two new AT1 instruments with NatWest Group plc amounting to £600 million. In addition, senior unsecured debt reduced by £0.1 billion during 2025, largely due to the maturity of an internal MREL instrument with NatWest Group plc of $1.15 billion, and the impact of FX movements, partially offset by two new internal MREL instruments with NatWest Group plc of €580 million and £490 million respectively. The MREL ratio decreased to 45.6% of RWAs at 31 December 2025, compared with 48.2% at 31 December 2024, mainly reflecting the increase in RWAs.
- NWM Plc’s leverage ratio was 5.0% at 31 December 2025 compared with 5.5% at 31 December 2024. The decrease in 2025 reflected lower Tier 1 capital and higher leverage exposure. The increase in leverage exposure was driven by increases in other financial assets and net derivatives, partially offset by a decrease in trading assets.
Liquidity and funding
- NWM Plc’s average liquidity coverage ratio (LCR)(1) increased to 198% (31 December 2024 - 192%), largely reflecting higher average levels in the liquidity portfolio during the year. The liquidity portfolio at 31 December 2025 was £20.2 billion, down by £0.8 billion compared with £21.0 billion at 31 December 2024. Stressed outflow coverage(2) was 165% at 31 December 2025, compared with 179% at 31 December 2024.
- NWM Plc issued a total of £7.9 billion across a number of public benchmark transactions during 2025. This includes prefinancing of 2026 funding requirements, taking advantage of favourable market conditions. These transactions comprised €3.6 billion and CHF0.2 billion of notes under our Euro Medium Term Note programme, $4.8 billion of notes under our US Medium Term Note programme and AUD2.0 billion of notes under our AUD debt issuance programme. NWM Plc also raised funding in other formats throughout 2025 including, but not limited to, structured note issuance.
- On 13 January 2026, NWM Plc issued a total of €1.0 billion of benchmark notes under the EMTN programme.
- Reported on an average basis in line with supervisory guidelines. The LCR is calculated as the average of the preceding 12 months.
- NWM Plc’s Stressed Outflow Coverage (SOC) is an internal measure calculated by reference to liquid assets as a percentage of net stressed contractual and behavioural outflows over three months. The most severe outcome is selected from a range of scenarios comprised of market-wide, idiosyncratic and a combination of both. This assessment is performed in accordance with PRA guidance. The average SOC is calculated as the average of the preceding 12 months.

- Product performance includes gross income earned on a NatWest Group-wide basis, including amounts contributed to other NatWest Group subsidiaries. Income including shared revenue before OCA includes revenue share from other NatWest Group subsidiaries but before revenue share is paid to or contributed to those subsidiaries.
- Capital Management Unit was set up in Q3 2020 to manage capital usage and optimisation across all parts of NatWest Markets, with the income materially relating to legacy positions.
- Transfer pricing arrangements with fellow NatWest Group subsidiaries includes shared revenue paid to or contributed to those subsidiaries and a profit share arrangement with fellow NatWest Group subsidiaries. The profit share arrangement rewards NWM Group on an arm’s length basis for its contribution to the performance of the NatWest Group Commercial & Institutional business segment. The profit share is not allocated to individual NatWest Markets product areas.
Year ended 31 December 2025 performance
- Net interest income largely represents interest income from lending activity and capital hedges, offset by interest expense from the funding costs of the business. The increase of £56 million compared with 2024 largely reflects growth in lending activity within Capital Markets.
- Non-interest income increased by £178 million in 2025. This rise was largely driven by a stronger performance in Currencies, which reflected the successful navigation of volatile market conditions, and higher income in Capital Management Unit and other, driven by one-off gains recognised in 2025 including a dividend received on the restructuring of a strategic investment, and lower FX reserves recycling losses. In addition, the amount recognised under the profit share arrangement with fellow NatWest Group subsidiaries of £189 million was £43 million higher than the amount recognised in 2024. These increases were partially offset by lower revenues in Fixed Income, which reflected challenging market conditions and reduced client activity.
- Operating expenses were up by £100 million compared with 2024. Litigation and conduct costs reflected ongoing progress in closing legacy matters, including associated conduct remediation activity, and were down by £39 million compared with 2024. Other operating expenses increased by £139 million compared with 2024, largely due to increases in technology investment costs and staff costs, lower VAT recoveries and a credit recognised in 2024 in relation to property charges, partially offset by a reduction in severance costs.
- The tax credit of £115 million on the operating profit before tax of £160 million differs from the expected UK corporation tax rate of 25%, primarily due to a revision in our estimate of deductible costs in current and prior periods and a write-back of the deferred tax held on NWM N.V. losses.
Q4 2025 performance
- Net interest income increased by £26 million compared with Q3 2025 and by £50 million compared with Q4 2024, largely reflecting higher interest expense in the comparative periods from funding of the trading business.
- Non-interest income increased by £31 million compared with Q3 2025 and by £30 million compared with Q4 2024. These increases were largely due to a dividend received on the restructuring of a strategic investment in Q4 2025, and FX reserves recycling losses of £30 million recognised in each of the comparative periods. In addition, NWM Group recognised £63 million under the profit share arrangement with fellow NatWest Group subsidiaries in Q4 2025, which was £16 million and £17 million higher than the amounts recognised in Q3 2025 and Q4 2024 respectively. These increases were partially offset by lower trading income in the current quarter.
- Operating expenses increased by £103 million compared with Q3 2025 and by £10 million compared with Q4 2024. Litigation and conduct costs were up by £50 million compared with Q3 2025 and down by £17 million compared with Q4 2024, reflecting ongoing progress on closing legacy matters, including any associated conduct remediation activity. Other operating expenses increased by £53 million compared with Q3 2025, largely due to one-off costs recognised in the current quarter including the annual bank levy, in addition to the non-repeat of VAT recoveries recognised in Q3 2025, partially offset by lower staff costs. Other operating expenses increased by £27 million compared with Q4 2024, largely due to higher technology investment costs and staff costs.

- Other financial assets were up by £1.2 billion, largely driven by an increase in bonds held in the liquid asset buffer.
