In addition, NatWest Private Banking produced a return on equity of 19.7% and an operating profit of £90m in Q3 2024.

Total income was £17m, or 7.2% higher than Q2 2024 primarily driven by
deposit margin expansion and higher AUMA balances driving an increase in investment fee income. Q3 2024 total income was £39m, or 18.2%, higher than Q3 2023 primarily reflecting deposit margin expansion and higher AUMA balances driving an increase in investment fee income, partly offset with the impact of deposit mix changes as customers migrated from current account accounts to savings products offering higher returns.
