Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to JPMorgan Chase's second quarter 2022 earnings call. This call is being recorded. [Operator instructions] We will now go live to the presentation.
Please stand by. At this time, I would like to turn the call over to JPMorgan Chase's chairman and CEO, Jamie Dimon; and Chief Financial Officer Jeremy Barnum. Mr. Barnum, please go ahead.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Thanks, operator. Good morning, everyone. The presentation is available on our website, and please refer to the disclaimer in the back. Starting on Page 1.
The firm reported net income of $8.6 billion, EPS of $2.76 on revenue of $31.6 billion, and delivered an ROTCE of 17%. Touching on a few highlights. We had another quarter of strong performance in markets, which generated revenue of nearly $8 billion. Credit is still quite healthy, and net charge-offs remain historically low.
10 stocks we like better than JPMorgan Chase
When our award-winning analyst team has a stock tip, it can pay to listen. After all, the newsletter they have run for over a decade, Motley Fool Stock Advisor, has tripled the market.*
They just revealed what they believe are the ten best stocks for investors to buy right now... and JPMorgan Chase wasn't one of them! That's right -- they think these 10 stocks are even better buys.
*Stock Advisor returns as of June 2, 2022
And there continue to be positive trends in loan growth across our businesses, with average loans up 7% year on year and 2% quarter on quarter. On Page 2, we have some more detail. Revenue of $31.6 billion was up $235 million or 1% year on year. NII ex Markets was up $2.8 billion or 26%, driven by higher rates and balance sheet growth.
NIR ex Markets was down $3.6 billion or 26%, largely driven by lower IB fees and higher card acquisition costs, and markets revenue was up $1 billion or 15% year on year. Expenses of $18.7 billion were up $1.1 billion or 6% year on year, predominantly on higher investments and structural expenses, partially offset by lower volume and revenue-related expenses. And credit costs were $1.1 billion, which included net charge-offs of $657 million and reserve builds of $428 million, reflecting loan growth as well as a modest deterioration in the economic outlook. On to balance sheet and capital on Page 3.
Let's start by talking about our plans for capital management over the coming quarters. The new 4% NCB will raise our standardized CET1 requirement to 12% effective in the fourth quarter, and the 4% G-SIB effective in 1Q '23 further raises this requirement to 12.5%. At Investor Day, we said that we expected SCB to be higher and made it clear that in the near term, share buybacks would be significantly reduced in order to build capital for the increased requirements. In light of the SCB coming in even higher than expected, we have paused buybacks for the near term.
As we discussed at Investor Day and as we show at the bottom of this presentation page, our organic capital generation allows us to rapidly build capital in excess of future requirements with a current target of roughly 12.5% in the fourth quarter. Any access over the regulatory requirements offers us protection against a range of economic scenarios with room to deploy capital in line with our strategic priorities. We have a long-established track record of balance sheet discipline across the company, and this quarter's RWA reduction shows evidence of this discipline. Turning to this quarter's results, you can see that our CET1 ratio of 12.2% and is up 30 basis points from the prior quarter.
RWA was down approximately $44 billion with growth in franchise lending being more than offset by the combination of active balance sheet management and the normalization of market risk RWA from the first quarter. CET1 capital was slightly down as earnings were offset by distributions and the impact of AOCI drawdowns in our AFS portfolio. Now let's go to our businesses, starting with consumer and community banking on Page 4. Before I review CCB's performance, let me touch on what we're seeing in our data regarding the health of the U.S.
consumer. Spend is still healthy with combined debit and credit spend up 15% year on year. We see the impact of inflation and higher nondiscretionary spend across income segments. Notably, the average consumer is spending 35% more year on year on gas and approximately 6% more on recurring bills and other nondiscretionary categories.
At the same time, we have yet to observe a pullback in discretionary spending, including in the lower income segments, with travel and dining growing a robust 34% year-on-year overall. And with spending growing faster than incomes, median deposit balances are down across income segments for the first time since the pandemic started, though cash buffers still remain elevated. With that as a backdrop, this quarter, CCB reported net income of $3.1 billion on revenue of $12.6 billion, which was down 1% year on year. In Consumer and business banking, revenue was up 9% year on year, driven by growth in deposits.
Deposits were up 13% year on year and 2% quarter on quarter. And client investment assets were down 7% year on year, driven by market performance, partially offset by flows. Home lending revenue was down 26% year on year as the rate environment drove both lower production revenue and tighter spreads, partially offset by higher net servicing revenue. And mortgage origination volume of $22 billion was down 45%.
Moving to card and auto. Revenue was down 6% year on year, reflecting higher acquisition costs on strong new card account originations and lower auto lease income, largely offset by higher card NII. Card outstandings were up 16%, and revolving balances were up 9%. And in auto, originations were $7 billion, down 44% from record levels a year ago due to continued lack of vehicle supply and rising rates, while loans were up 2%.
Expenses of $7.7 billion were up 9% year on year driven by higher investments and structural expenses, partially offset by lower volume and revenue-related expenses. In terms of actual credit performance this quarter, credit costs were $761 million, reflecting net charge-offs of $611 million, down $121 million year on year, driven by card and a reserve build of $150 million in card driven by loan growth. Next to CIB on Page 5. CIB reported net income of $3.7 billion on revenue of $11.9 billion.
There were a number of notable items this quarter, including net markdowns on certain equity investments of approximately $370 million was about $345 million reflected in payments and markdowns on the bridge book of approximately $250 million in IB revenue. Investment banking revenue of $1.4 billion was down 61% year on year or down 53%, excluding the Bridge book markdowns. IB fees were down 54% versus an all-time record quarter last year. We maintained our No.
1 rank with a year-to-date wallet share of 8.1%. In advisory, fees were down 28%, reflecting a decline in announced activity, which started in the first quarter. The volatile market resulted in muted issuance in our underwriting businesses. Underwriting fees were down 53% for debt and down 77% for equity.
In terms of outlook, while our existing pipeline remains healthy, conversion of the deal backlog may be challenging if the current headwinds continue. Lending revenue of $410 million was up 79% versus the prior year, driven by gains on mark-to-market hedges as well as higher loan balances. Moving to markets. Total revenue was $7.8 billion, up 15% year on year in both fixed income and equities against a strong quarter last year.
In fixed income, elevated volatility drove both increased client flows and robust trading results in the macro franchise, most notably in currencies and emerging markets. This was partially offset by credit unsecuritized products in a challenging spread environment. In equity markets, we had a strong second quarter, and again, increased volatility produced a strong performance in derivatives. Credit adjustments and other was a loss of $218 million, largely driven by funding spread widening.
Payments revenue was $1.5 billion, up 1% year on year or up 25%, excluding the markdowns on equity investments. The year-on-year growth was primarily driven by higher rates. Security services revenue of $1.2 billion was up 6% year on year, with growth in fees and higher rates more than offsetting the impact of lower market levels. Expenses of $6.7 billion were up 3% year on year, predominantly driven by higher structural expenses and investments, largely offset by lower revenue-related compensation.
Moving to commercial banking on Page 6. The commercial banking reported net income of $1 billion. Revenue of $2.7 billion was up 8% year on year, driven by higher deposit margins, partially offset by lower investment banking revenue. Gross investment banking revenue of $788 million was down 32%, driven by lower debt and equity underwriting activity.
Expenses of $1.2 billion were up 18% year on year, predominantly driven by higher structural and volume and revenue-related expenses. Deposits were down 5% quarter on quarter, driven by migration of nonoperating deposits into higher-yielding alternatives, which we expect to continue given the current rate environment. Loans were up 4% sequentially. C&I loans were up 6%, reflecting higher revolver utilization and originations across middle market and corporate client banking.
CRE loans were up 3%, driven by strong loan originations and funding in commercial term lending and real estate banking. Finally, credit costs of $209 million were largely driven by loan growth, while net charge-offs remain historically low. And then to complete our lines of business, AWM on Page 7. Asset and wealth management reported net income of $1 billion with pre-tax margin of 31%.
For the quarter, revenue of $4.3 billion was up 5% year on year, driven by growth in deposits and loans as well as higher margins, partially offset by investment valuation losses versus gains in the prior year. In addition, reductions in management fees linked to this year's market declines have been almost entirely offset by the removal of most money market fund fee waivers. Expenses of $2.9 billion were up 13% year on year, largely driven by investments in our private banking advisory teams, technology, and asset management as well as higher volume and revenue-related expenses. For the quarter, net long-term inflows of $6 billion were driven by equities.
AUM of $2.7 trillion and overall client assets of $3.8 trillion, down 8% and 6% year on year, respectively, were predominantly driven by lower market levels, partially offset by net long-term inflows. And finally, loans were up 1% quarter on quarter, while deposits were down 7% sequentially, driven by seasonal client tax payments. Turning to corporate on Page 8. Corporate reported a net loss of $174 million.
Revenue was $80 million versus a loss in the prior year. NII was $324 million, up $1.3 billion, predominantly due to the impact of higher rates. And expenses of $206 million were lower by $309 million year on year. Next, the outlook on Page 9.
You will recall that at Investor Day, we expected NII ex Markets for 2022 to be in excess of $56 billion. We now expect it to be in excess of $58 billion, reflecting Fed funds reaching 3.5% by year end. We still expect adjusted expense to be approximately $77 billion and the card net charge-off rate to be less than 2% for 2022. So to wrap up, the company's performance was strong again this quarter in what was a complex operating environment.
As we look forward, we are mindful of the elevated uncertainty in the global economy, but we feel confident that we are prepared and well-positioned for a broad range of outcomes. With that, operator, please open up the line for Q&A.
Questions & Answers:
Operator
Please stand by. And the first question is coming from Steve Chubak from Wolfe Research. Please proceed.
Steve Chubak -- Wolfe Research -- Analyst
Hey. Good morning, Jeremy. Good morning, Jamie. I wanted to start off with a question on capital targets.
I don't believe you've provided an update on your firmwide CET1 target of 12.5% to 13%. And given the new higher SCB, future increases in your G-SIB surcharge to 4.5%, your regulatory minimum is slated to increase beyond 13% by 2024, which is also beyond the horizon reflected on Slide 3. And just given that high regulatory minimum, elevated SCB volatility in recent years, what do you believe is an appropriate capital target for you to manage from here over the long term?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes, Steve. Good question. So obviously, you're right in the sense that we didn't talk about 2024 on the slide. And as you note, have two G-SIB bucket increases coming, one in the first quarter of '23 and the other one in the first quarter of '24.
So we had worked all that out on Investor Day and talked about 12.5% to 13% target, which implies sort of a modest buffer to be used flexibly based on what we expected would be some increase in SCB. Obviously, the increase came in a bit higher than expected. So for now, we're really focused on 1Q '23. Of course, all else equal, you would assume that, that 12.5% to 13% for 2024 would be a little bit higher.
But there is another round of SCB, and that's a long way away. And as you know, and as you can see, there's a lot of organic capital generation. So we'll kind of cross that bridge when we come to it.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
And we intend to drive that SCB down by reducing the things that created it.
Steve Chubak -- Wolfe Research -- Analyst
Fair enough. And just for my follow-up on the loan growth outlook. Loan growth continues to surprise positively. Certainly, the tone, Jeremy, that you conveyed was quite constructive despite the challenging macro backdrop.
But with companies just citing higher inventory levels, declining personal savings rates, growing inflationary pressures, whole list of potential headwinds that could negatively impact loan growth from here, I was hoping you could just speak to the outlook for loan growth across some of the different businesses? And what do you see as a sustainable run rate of loan growth over the medium term?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. So we've talked, as you know, Steve, about sort of a mid -- high single digits loan growth expectation for this year. And that outlook is more or less still in place. Obviously, we only have half the year left.
We continue to see quite robust C&I growth, both higher revolver utilization and new account origination. We're also seeing good growth in CRE. And of course, we continue to see very robust card loan growth, which is nice to see. Outlook beyond this year, I'm not going to give now.
And obviously, as you know, it's going to be very much a function of the economic environment, so --
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Yes. The only thing I would like to add is that certain loan growth is discretionary and portfolio-based, think of mortgages, and there's a good chance we're going to drive it down substantially.
Steve Chubak -- Wolfe Research -- Analyst
Fair enough. Thanks so much for taking my questions.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Thanks, Steve.

The next question is coming from Glenn Schorr from Evercore ISI. Please proceed.
Glenn Schorr -- Evercore ISI -- Analyst
Hi. Thanks very much. I wonder if you could just talk to how you balance it all? Meaning JPMorgan is always growth-minded. You underwrite for returns over the cycle.
I get that. But given some of the potential bad stuff going on in the world that you've noted in some of the articles you've been in and at the conference, is there any point where that rougher outlook has you tightened the underwriting box to build capital and liquidity faster? Or do you think you can get there just through what you've laid out today on the buyback pause?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. No. So I mean, look, I think all of these things are true at the same time, right? So first of all, as you can see on Page 3, the organic capital generation enables us to build very quickly to get to where we need to be with a nice appropriate buffer on time, if not early. At the same time, as Jamie has noted, obviously, in this moment, we're going to scrutinize even more aggressively than we always do, elements or lending, which are either low returning or have a low client nexus or both.
We do that all the time anyway. But of course, in this moment, we're going to turn up the heat on that a little bit. In terms of underwriting, as you say, we do underwrite through the cycle. I think we feel comfortable with our risk appetite and our credit box.
And I don't think we expect any particular change there.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
And the only thing I would add is that certain, obviously, risks that we take kind of price themselves. So if you look at our bridge book, it's smaller than it was because we price ourselves out of the market. And that was a good thing because a lot of people can lose a lot of money there, and we lost a little. And so we are very conscious of that kind of thing all the time.
Glenn Schorr -- Evercore ISI -- Analyst
I appreciate that. And did you all consider a CECL reserve and increasing the probability to the poor scenario in this quarter? And just curious on how you thought about that.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Yes. But we didn't do it. And obviously, what we do in the future quarters will remain to be seen.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. And, Glenn, just remember that we did do that last quarter, right? So we already introduced a sort of skew to the outlook beyond what's implied by the market to reflect our own slightly more negative view. And in a sense, arguably, we were sort of early on that. So it really wasn't necessarily this quarter.
Glenn Schorr -- Evercore ISI -- Analyst
All right. Thank you, both.

The next question is coming from John McDonald from Autonomous Research. Please proceed.
John McDonald -- Bank of America Merrill Lynch -- Analyst
Hi. Good morning. Jeremy, I was wondering if you could talk about the deposit trends you're seeing, the differences between commercial deposits, wealth management and retail in terms of flows and repricing pressures.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. Great question, John. And I think you're right to break it down by the different segments because we are seeing different dynamics there. So on the wholesale side, you do see some lower deposits, some deposit attrition, and that is entirely expected and part of the plan in the sense that for client reasons, we had slightly higher appetite, especially in parts of the commercial bank for nonoperating deposits, knowing fully that our pricing strategy, as rates went up, was going to be to not pay up, and therefore, we expected the attrition from those -- from that client base.
And so we're seeing that, and that's actually something that we want, all else equal, and it's playing out in line with expectations. You do see a little bit of a decline or a little bit of a headwind in wealth management. I think that's just seasonal tax payments being a little bit higher than usual. And then on the consumer side, we're really not seeing much at all.
So that remains strong, not seeing any attrition there, and it's early in the cycle to really be observing much one way or the other from a pricing perspective.
John McDonald -- Bank of America Merrill Lynch -- Analyst
OK. And then as a follow-up, in terms of the updated NII outlook, you had talked about an exit rate in the fourth quarter of about $66 billion at Investor Day. Just kind of wondering what that looks like and what kind of fading benefit from rate ex you have assumed in your outlook.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. So the 66 number, if you want, kind of to put a number in, you can use something like 68, 68 plus, something like that. Obviously, we're annualizing one quarter. So there can always be noise in there, but that seems like a good number to us.
That's consistent with the increase for the full year. And sorry, John, can you repeat your other question?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
2023.
John McDonald -- Bank of America Merrill Lynch -- Analyst
A good deposit [Inaudible]. Yes.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. Yes. Yes. So in terms of '23, we had talked at Investor Day about how we saw upside into 2023 from that fourth quarter run rate.
And that more or less remains true. There is some upside. Obviously, we're starting from a higher launch point, higher rates and less so after the CPI brand, but there have been moments where there were cuts in the 2023 Fed expectations. So that could have some impact on the dynamic.
Obviously, this is all in an environment very volatile implied, but the core view of some upside from that fourth-quarter run rate into 2023 is still in place.
John McDonald -- Bank of America Merrill Lynch -- Analyst
Got it. Thank you.

The next question is coming from Betsy Graseck from Morgan Stanley.
Betsy Graseck -- Morgan Stanley -- Analyst
Hi. Good morning.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Hey, Betsy.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Hey, Betsy.
Betsy Graseck -- Morgan Stanley -- Analyst
Jamie, you mentioned just on the SCB earlier that you intended to reduce it by reducing the things that caused it to rise. Could you give us a sense as to what you saw in the results that you got that drove that SCB up, because I talked to folks to say it's a black box. So it would be helpful to understand what you see as what the drivers were to that SCB increase.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
First of all, it's public. So you can actually go see what drives it, the global market shock and credit loss and stuff like that. And we don't agree with the stress test. It's inconsistent.
It's not transparent. It's too volatile. It's basically capricious arbitrary. We do 100 a week.
This is one. And I need to drive capital up and down by 80 basis points. So we'll work on it. We haven't made definitive decisions.
But I've already mentioned about we dramatically reduced RWA this quarter. We may do that again next quarter. We're probably going to drive down mortgages, and we'll probably drive that other credit too that creates SCB. So I could go into specifics on that.
It's easy for us to do. You've seen us do it before. We're going to drive out non-IP deposits. it creates no risk to us, but as the G-SIFI and various things.
And so we're going to manage the balance sheet, get good returns, have great clients and not worry about it. We just want to get there right away. I don't want to sit there and do [Inaudible] out. That's the rule.
They gave it to us. We're going.
Betsy Graseck -- Morgan Stanley -- Analyst
Got it. And then –
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Hey, Betsy. Maybe I'll just jump in a little bit on the black box.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
There's another very important point for shareholders. That number, that doesn't need remotely -- the stress loss doesn't even remotely represent what happened under that kind of scenario. And I'm not saying the Fed says it should or shouldn't. But I would tell you, we'd make money under that scenario.
We wouldn't lose -- I think they had us losing $44 billion. There's almost no chance that that would be true. And I just -- and I feel bad for the shareholders because people look at that and say, "Well, what's going to happen?" And in by, there's good evidence. We didn't lose money after Lehmann.
We didn't lose money in the great -- what just happened. We didn't lose money, great financial recession. The company has got huge underlying earnings power and consistent revenues in CCB, asset management, custody, payment services. And then we have some kind of fairly volatile streams.
Now we've got the CECL, which obviously can go up or down quite a bit. But again, that's an accounting entry. And so we feel in very good shape. We just have to hold a higher number now, and we're going to go there.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
And Betsy, maybe I'll just comment briefly on the black box point because as Jamie noted, the SCB is quite volatile, and I think you see that across the industry, and it's -- you have to -- we feel very good about building quickly enough to meet the higher requirements, but with pretty big changes that come into effect fairly quickly for banks, and I think that's probably not healthy. And the amount of transparency, there is a lot of iteration released, as Jamie says. But since the SCB is really a quantity that gets measured to the peak drawdown period, and that information does not get released, it winds up being really very hard at any given moment to understand what's actually driving it. And that combination of suboptimal transparency and high volatility is really our central criticism, I guess, I would say.
But nonetheless, you got capital general.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
This got bad effects for the economy because, I just said, we're going to drive down this and drive down. It's not good for the United States economy. And the mortgage business, in particular, is bad for lower-income mortgages, which hurts lower income, minorities, and stuff like that because we haven't fixed the mortgage business, and now we're making it worse. There's no real risk in it, not a benefit to JPMorgan, but it hurts this country, and it's very unfortunate.
Betsy Graseck -- Morgan Stanley -- Analyst
No. I hear you on all that. And the mortgage comment you made earlier was about shrinking mortgage growth rates or shrinking the balances of mortgages that you have on the books?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
The balance -- well, no. We'll originate but the balances in the books will probably come down. And look, we reserve the right to change that. But that's a portfolio decision.
And if it doesn't make sense to own mortgage, we're not going to own them.
Betsy Graseck -- Morgan Stanley -- Analyst
Yes. And would you reduce the buffer? I mean, in the past, Jamie, you've talked about, hey, as these required capital ratios increase relative to the risk in your business staying more consistent than you've said before, that you may operate with less of a buffer. Could you unpack that a little bit?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
We're going to keep a buffer -- I'm not even sure what the SCB means at this point. We're not going to go below any regulatory minimum. And if we have to, we'll just drive down credit more to where we got to create. It's a terrible way to run a financial system, and we owe you more on what we think that buffer should be because we have so much -- what I think is so much excess capital.
It just causes a huge confusion about where you should be doing your capital. But keep in mind, one thing, we're earning 70% of tangible equity. We can continue doing that. The company is in great shape.
We're going to serve our clients and manage the hell out of the rest of the stuff. We still think we have great businesses and stuff like that, and that's what we're going to do. Most of this stuff doesn't create any additional risk at all. It just creates capital.
Betsy Graseck -- Morgan Stanley -- Analyst
All right. Thank you.

The next question is coming from Jim Mitchell from Seaport Global Securities. Please proceed.
Jim Mitchell -- Seaport Global Securities -- Analyst
Hey. Good morning. Maybe just on expenses. If I kind of look at the first half with the slowdown in investment banking, I think you're annualized less than $76 billion, but you're still targeting $77 billion.
Is that implication of just higher investment spend in the second half or just uncertainty around getting the pipeline completed or not and just assuming it might get done until we know better?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes, Jim. Good question. We've looked at that, too. It's definitely more of the former than the latter.
In other words, $77 billion is the number that we see right now and the number that we believe. And we can see in our outlook a bunch of factors driving up second half expense, including deal, M&A closing and adding to the run rate as well as continued execution of our investment plans, resulting in increased headcount, probably at a faster pace as we kind of have ramped up our hiring capacity and so on. So I wouldn't draw any conclusions about lower than $77 billion based on the first half numbers.
Jim Mitchell -- Seaport Global Securities -- Analyst
OK. Great. And then just maybe on credit. It continues to look, I guess, very good, whether it's on the consumer side or commercial side.
Are you -- we don't really see it, but are you starting to see any initial cracks in credit or strains in the system?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Look, I think the short answer to that question is no, certainly not in any of our reported actual results for this quarter. The place that everyone --
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Excellent.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Right. Exactly. Obviously, running still well below normal levels from the pre-pandemic period. But if you really want to kind of turn up the magnification of the microscope and look really, really, really closely, if you look at cash buffers in the lower income segments and early delinquency roll rates in those segments, you can maybe see a little bit of an early warning signal to the effect that the burn down of excess cash is a little bit faster there.
Buffers are still above what they were pre-pandemic, but coming down, and that absolute numbers for the typical customer are not that high. And you do see those early delinquency buckets still below pre-pandemic levels, but getting closer in the lower income segment. So if you wanted to try to look for early warning signals, that's where you would see it. But I think there's really still a big question about whether that's simply normalization or whether it's actually an early warning sign of deterioration.
And for us, as you know, our portfolio is really not very exposed to that segment of the market. So not really very significant for us.
Jim Mitchell -- Seaport Global Securities -- Analyst
Right. So prime is still holding up quite well? Thanks.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Even better.

The next question is coming from Ken Usdin from Jefferies. Please proceed.
Ken Usdin -- Jefferies -- Analyst
Hey, guys. Good morning. Just a follow-up on the point about managing the balance sheet and capital and RWAs. How do you think about your ability to manage the RWA output and dimensionalizing how, if at all, it might impact either the net income or outcome or the ROTCE outcome as you look forward?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Just very roughly, we have a tremendous ability to manage it. I can think we do without affecting our ROTC targets and stuff like that. Obviously, it will affect NII a little bit and capital generation a little bit of stuff like that. But all told, we're going to imagine how it will be fine.
Ken Usdin -- Jefferies -- Analyst
Got it. OK. That's a fair point. And then just second one on cards.
Card revenue rate continues to slip even with the NII benefit. Obviously, you've got the denominator increase in there, too, and spend versus land. Can you just help us understand the dynamics underneath Card revenue rate and where you expect it to go from here?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. Sure. So on card revenue rate, we've said that we thought 10% was a reasonable number for the full year, and it's running a little bit lower right now. And I think the current level, but where is it, Michael? 9.6 or something is probably the right number for the full year at this point.
And really, the difference is driven by a couple of factors. The main one is that while the growth in Revolve is basically still in place, our view that we would see normalization and Revolve balances happening toward early -- beginning of next year. The starting point of that did get slightly delayed by omicron by about six weeks. And so that, all else equal's a little bit the headwind relative to what we'd expected, but still obviously very robust.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Can you just add a little bit on -- because I know I'm harping on mortgage a little here, but I just want to explain it. Because -- if you go to Europe, OK, the capital held against mortgage is like a fifth what we have to hold here. And we can obviously manage that and standardize risk-weighted assets do not represent returns or risk. So there are a lot of ways to manage it.
And we don't have the no-securitization market today. So our view would change if there was a securitization market might do something different. But by not owning it, buying it, sign it, hedging it, swapping it, there are a million ways to manage it without really affecting a lot of your risk of returns. And so it's unfortunate because I think this is all kind of a waste of time in terms of serving our clients.
Our job is to serve clients through thick or thin, good or bad with what they need, how they need it. And now we spend all the time talking about these ridiculous regulatory requirements.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Right. So, yes, and just to finish on card. So slightly lower NII just from the omicron delay. And that slightly better-than-expected new client acquisition is a driver there.
And then there's some subtle kind of funding effects from the higher rate environment contributing to it as well.
Ken Usdin -- Jefferies -- Analyst
OK. Thanks a lot.

The next question is coming from Mike Mayo from Wells Fargo Securities. Please proceed.
Mike Mayo -- Wells Fargo Securities -- Analyst
Hi. Good morning.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Hey, Mike.
Mike Mayo -- Wells Fargo Securities -- Analyst
Could you help me reconcile your words with your actions? After Investor Day, Jamie, you said a hurricane is on the horizon. By today, you're holding firm with your $77 billion expense guidance for 2022. I mean, it's like you're acting like there's sunny skies ahead. You're out buying kayak, surfboards, wave runners just before the storm.
So is it tough times or not?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Let me -- we run the company. We've always run the company consistently investing, doing this stuff through storms. We don't like pull in and pull out and go up and go down and go into markets, out of markets through storms. We manage the company, and you've seen us do this consistently since I've been at Bank One.
We invest, we grow, we expand, we manage through this to and stuff like that. And so -- and I mentioned to all of you on the media call, but there are very good current numbers taking place. Consumers are in good shape. They're spending money.
They have more income. Jobs are plentiful. They're spending 10% more than last year, almost 30% plus more than pre-COVID. Businesses, you talk to them, they're in good shape.
They're doing fine. We've never seen business credit be better ever like in our lifetimes. And that's the current environment. The future environment, which is not that far off, involves rates going up, maybe more than people think because of inflation, maybe elation, maybe soft -- there might be a soft landing.
I'm simply saying, there's a range of potential outcomes from a soft lending to a hard lending, driven by how much rates go up, the effective quantitative tightening, defective volatile markets. And obviously, this terrible humanitarian crisis in Ukraine and the war and then the effect of that on food and oil and gas. And we're simply pointing out, those things make the probabilities and possibilities of these events different. It's not going to change how we run the company.
The economy will be bigger in 10 years. We're going to run the company. We're going to serve more clients. We're going to open our branch.
We're going to invest in the things, and we'll manage through that. We do -- if you look at what we do, our bridge book is way down. That was managing certain exposures. We're not in subprime fundamentally.
That's managing your exposures. So we're quite careful about how we run the risk of the company. And there was a reason to cut back on something we would, but not only we think it's a great business. It's got great growth prospects.
It's just going to go through a storm. And in fact, going through a storm, we will -- that gives us opportunities, too. So I always remind myself the economy will be a lot bigger in 10 years. We're here to serve clients through a thick or thin, and we will do that.
Mike Mayo -- Wells Fargo Securities -- Analyst
So clearly running the company for the next 5 to 10 years. If we have a recession in the next 5 to 10 months, how does technology help you manage through that better, whether it's credit losses, managing for less credit losses, expenses, more flexibility or revenues may be gaining market share? What's the benefit of all these technology investments if we have a recession over the next --
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Mike, I think we gave you some examples at Investor Day, for example, AI, which we spend a lot of money on, we gave you a couple of examples, but one of them is we spent $100 million building certain risk and fraud systems so that when we process payments on the consumer side, losses are down $100 million to $200 million. Volume is way up. That's a huge benefit. I don't think it wants to stop doing that because there's a recession.
And so -- and plus, in a recession, certain things get cheaper, branches are enormously probable. Bank are enormously probably. We're going to keep on doing those things. And we've managed through recessions before.
We'll manage it again. I'm quite comfortable to do it quite well. We stop starting on recruiting or training or technology or a branch, that's crazy. We don't do that.
We've never done that. We didn't do it in '08 and '09. And then for [Inaudible] in terms -- yes.
Mike Mayo -- Wells Fargo Securities -- Analyst
The only other thing is just market revenue is a lot weaker, right? I mean, the market outlook is worse. And so we know you've had a structural spending. So when all else equal, that would be a little bit less then.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
But that's – yes. That's very performance based too. And again, Mike, the way I look at it a little bit in 15 years, the global GDP -- or 20 years, the global GDP, global financial assets, global companies, companies over 5 -- a billion dollars' worth will all double. That's what we're building for.
We're not building for like 18 months.
Mike Mayo -- Wells Fargo Securities -- Analyst
OK. Thank you.

The next question is coming from Gerard Cassidy from RBC Capital Markets. Please proceed.
Gerard Cassidy -- RBC Capital Markets -- Analyst
Thank you. Good morning, guys. Jeremy, you touched on the deposit commentary a short while ago. Can you elaborate on QT and the impact that you've seen? Now granted that I know June was not full QT of $95 billion a month.
But can you guys give us a flavor? And I think, Jamie, you mentioned that -- if I heard it correctly, that maybe $300 billion to $400 billion of deposits could outflow over time, I am assuming due to QT. But can you guys elaborate what you saw in June? Is it tracking the way you think it's going to be? And any further outlook for what the deposits could be over the next 12 months due to QT?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Gerard, so as you know, QT just started. So I think it's not the sort of thing where you can say I expect this exact outcome and then sort of track it sector by sector because you can see the clear impact on systemwide deposits, but that also interacts with RP and TGA and stuff like that. And so how that flows into the banking system and then to any individual bank across the wholesale and consumer segments is kind of a tricky thing. So it's early on that.
But at a high level, in your comments to what Jamie said before are right. The story remains true, which is that depending on how QT interacts with RRP and loan growth, in particular, you could see some decline in deposits in the banking system, and we would see our share of that. But we would expect that to primarily come out of wholesale and primarily come out of the nonoperating and sort of less valuable portions of our deposit base. While in consumer, while you could, in theory, have a little bit of a headwind there, we feel pretty good about our ability to keep those levels pretty steady based on the strength of the franchise and the ability to take share.
Gerard Cassidy -- RBC Capital Markets -- Analyst
Very good. And then as a follow-up, I don't believe you guys disclosed the outstandings in the bridge book. But two questions. And, Jamie, you've been very clear about this for the last 10 years, how you've derisked the balance sheet, and you mentioned that already today.
Can you just give us some color on how different it is today from '08, '09, just so investors know that it is meaningfully different. And second, what caused the write-down in the bridge book this quarter?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
So if you go back to '07, I think, the whole Street, bridge book was $480 billion. I think the whole Street bridge book today is under 100 or under 100.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. It's like 20%.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Our percent of that bridge book has come down substantially just in the last 12 months. And that's really just underlying loan by loan by loan, and you win some, you lose some. And if you guys look at high-yield spreads and stuff like that, bonds are down 6%. That's what you see.
So you have some flex. You don't have some flex. And we're big boys. We know that, and there are write-downs of a couple of bridge loans.
They're not huge. They're just -- I think they were in the investment banking line.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. It's in the IB revenue line, and there's a small amount in the commercial bank as well. But as you said, Jamie, and as Daniel also mentioned at Investor Day, I think we made conscious choices here to dial back our risk appetite and accepted some share losses in leveraged finance. So we feel good about where we are.
We're still open for business for the right deals at the right risk upside on the right term, absolutely, but we've been careful.
Gerard Cassidy -- RBC Capital Markets -- Analyst
Very good. Thank you.

The next question is coming from Erika Najarian from UBS. Please proceed.
Erika Najarian -- UBS -- Analyst
Hi. I just had a few follow-up questions. The first is on balance sheet management. Jeremy, the illustrative path that you set forth on Slide 3, did that include RWA mitigation? And as we think about the $58 billion-plus in updated NII guide, what kind of deposit growth does that assume? You noted that part of the SCB mitigation is to drive out nonoperating deposits.
Just wanted to understand what the assumption was there as well, please?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes, Erika. Sure. So first point, you have to turn over your magnifying glass. But if you look at Footnote 5 on Page 3, you can see that right at the end of there, it assumes flat RWA in the projection.
So -- and I think within that, who knows what the exact mix will be, and you've heard Jamie's comments on that. But if you look at the table above, you see that you've got the usual moving parts. We've got organic loan growth that we want, that's been profitable on its own or part of important relationships that we'd like to see continue to happen. Some of it is a little bit positive.
We can't really control it. It moves up and down as a function of factors like VAR. And then there's the mitigation piece of it, which we're going to turn up the scrutiny quite intensely, as I said before, on lower returning, lower client excess or boat. So across those three bits, we'll see how it goes.
But as Jamie said, we feel pretty confident here. In terms of deposits, at this point, deposit growth is probably less of a driver overall looking forward of the NII outlook. Our deposit outlook remains more or less the same that I said before and that we've talked about at Investor Day, which is we do expect to see some attrition in wholesale. We expect consumer to be relatively stable, and we'll see how it goes.
Erika Najarian -- UBS -- Analyst
Got it. And my follow-up question is for Jamie. Jamie, we've heard your caution about the economy. And I think there's a bigger debate on how the U.S.
consumer is going to be impacted in light or in context of a downturn. The statistics that Jeremy laid out imply a pretty healthy starting point for the consumer that you bank. And the reserve build for loan growth in card and the less than 2% loss rate in card lead us to believe that your consumer is still OK. As you think about the various scenarios and you think about the realistic range of outcomes, how does the U.S.
consumer perform? Because it feels like that's the big wildcard, and we've seen the journal term a job for recession. I just wanted to get your thoughts there.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Yes. So, first, I just want to point out that on that chart, that's not a forecast for what it is going to be at the end of the quarter. So we're going to -- if you're going to pencil some of your miles, it's 12.5% on December 31, and it'll probably be 13% at the end of the first quarter. And because obviously, we use capital for a whole bunch of different reasons.
And the consumer -- it's like a broken record, the consumer right now is in great shape. So even we go in a recession, they're entering that recession with less leverage in far better shape than they've been -- did in '08 and '09 and far better shape than they did even in 2020. And jobs are plentiful. Now, of course, jobs may disappear.
Things happen. But they're in very good shape. And, obviously, when you have recessions, it affects consumer income and consumer credit. Our credit card portfolio is prime.
I mean, it's exceptional. But again, we're adults in that. We know that if you have a recession, losses will go up. We prepare for all that, and we're prepared to take it because we grow the business over time.
We're not going to just immediately run out of it. And so I think it's great the consumer is in good shape. And it sounds excellent that I'd like the fact that wages are going up and keep at the low end. I like the fact that jobs are plentiful.
I think that's good for the average American, and we should applaud that. And so they're in good shape right now.
Erika Najarian -- UBS -- Analyst
Thanks for that.

The next question is coming from Matt O'Connor from Deutsche Bank. Please proceed. The next question is coming from Ebrahim Poonawala from Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Please proceed.
Ebrahim Poonawala -- Bank of America Merrill Lynch -- Analyst
Hey. Good morning. I guess just one for -- a couple of follow-ups, Jeremy. In terms of the markets have gone very quickly from pricing in a ton of rate hikes to potentially pricing in rate cuts next year, just talk to us like how that's informing your ALCO balance sheet management as you think about hedging downside risk from lower rates 12 to 18 months out? Like should we expect you to add duration or do anything synthetic to protect against lower rates?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
We're going to keep that to ourselves.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. Yes. But I don't know, maybe if you want a little bit of general color about how we're thinking about the portfolio. I do think -- yes, OK.
I'll keep it brief. The -- on duration, I think at this level of rates, also with very quickly cash yields being roughly not that different from 10-year yields. The question of duration adding or not is just generally less important for us. Then the other piece of it is whether there's the opportunity to deploy cash into non-HQLA securities broadly into spread product.
And obviously, the spread product is more attractive right now. But as we've been talking about a lot on this call, the priority right now is to build capital. So that will be something for later, I would say.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
And I should just point out, the forward curve has been consistently wrong in my whole lifetime. We don't necessarily make investments based on the forward curve. And second, we've always told you that we use the portfolio and other things to manage the broad range of outcomes, not just to try to add NII. So if you said add NII next quarter, yes, we could do that.
That would be managing the broad outcome of potential outcomes here, which is to protect the company through all possible outcomes.
Ebrahim Poonawala -- Bank of America Merrill Lynch -- Analyst
That's helpful. And just one follow-up on credit. I heard your comments on the consumer if we enter some version of a mild recession, like if you had to pick one or two areas, where do you think losses would be driven by? Is it on the commercial side? Is it CRE? Like how do you expect that downturn to kind of play out?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Did you -- I think at Investor Day, you had a chart that showed through-the-cycle losses?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Yes. So, I mean, I would just go back to that and we show -- we think through-the-cycle, loss would be for credit cards, C&I and a bunch of other things. And obviously, through-the-cycle is an average, and you can kind of double that from -- OK.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. And that showed exceptionally low losses in wholesale. So whether or not that's a prediction of the future or not, but yes.

The next question is coming from Matt O'Connor from Deutsche Bank. Please proceed.
Matt OConnor -- Deutsche Bank -- Analyst
Hi. Sorry about that. I somehow got disconnected. Sorry if I missed this, but if we think about provisioning or reserving for a moderate recession, what's the best guess on how much that might be? I think for COVID, it was around $14 billion ex CECL.
But obviously, you alluded to the consumer being better. The loan mix has changed. There's lots of puts and takes, but how would you frame kind of total reserve sales to moderate [Inaudible].
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Let me state very simply for you. In COVID, we got to 15% unemployment within three months. And in two quarters, we added $15 billion, which we can easily handle. That is clearly -- I was put that almost out of the worst case.
It will clearly be a lot less than that. And you guys can look at the things yourselves. Every 5% is another $500 million or something like that, if you change your odds, and so on --
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. I mean, we think the current reserve, the current allowance, we think, is conservatively appropriate for a range of scenarios. And as you know, it's already kind of skewed to the downside and there are probably some other elements of slight conservatism in there. So we'll see how it goes.
We feel that it's appropriate and conservative at this point.
Matt OConnor -- Deutsche Bank -- Analyst
OK. And then separately, you've got about $14 billion of losses in OCI. Obviously, most of that flows back to capital as the bonds mature. What's kind of some good rule of thumb in terms of how quickly that comes back if rates stabilize here?
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
10 basis points a year of CET1, yes.
Matt OConnor -- Deutsche Bank -- Analyst
Right. 10 basis points, you said?
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
10 basis points of CET1 a year.
Matt OConnor -- Deutsche Bank -- Analyst
Got it. OK. Thank you.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
After -- yes, after tax.
Jamie Dimon -- Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Basically, five years is -- it kind of bleeds back in over five years.
Jeremy Barnum -- Chief Financial Officer
Its weighted average life of four or five years, yes. So the good rule of thumb on constant rates is about 10 basis points of CET1 accretion a year.
Matt OConnor -- Deutsche Bank -- Analyst
