2 Non-interest income

There are three main categories of non-interest income: net fees and commissions, trading income, and other operating income.

Net fees and commissions is the difference between fees received from customers for services provided by NatWest Group, such as credit card annual fees, underwriting fees, payment services, brokerage fees, trade finance, investment management fees, trustee and fiduciary services, and fees incurred in the provision of those services, such as credit card interchange fees, customer incentives, loan administration, foreign currency transaction charges, and brokerage fees.

Trading income is earned from short-term financial assets and financial liabilities to either make a spread between purchase and sale price or held to take advantage of movements in prices and yields.

Other operating income includes revenue from other operating activities which are not related to the principal activities of the company, such as: share of profit or loss from associates; operating lease income; the profit or loss on the sale of a subsidiary or property, plant and equipment profit or loss on own debt; and changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss.

For accounting policy information refer to Accounting policies 3.1 and 3.6.
