What was the main driver of the significant increase in net interest revenue?

The substantial increase in net interest revenue was primarily driven by a reduction in bank supplemental funding costs, lower average rates paid on funding sources, and growth in bank lending. This was partially offset by lower yields on interest-earning assets due to lower market rates.

How did client activity perform in the second quarter of 2025?

Client activity remained strong, with core net new client assets increasing by 31% year-over-year to $80.3 billion. The company also saw an 11% increase in new brokerage accounts, reaching 1.1 million, and an increase in active brokerage accounts to 37.5 million.

What actions did Schwab take regarding capital management during the quarter?

Schwab returned excess capital to stockholders by increasing its common dividend by 8% to $0.27 per share and repurchasing $351 million of its common stock. The company also redeemed $2.5 billion of its Series G preferred stock.

How did the company's asset management and administration fees perform?

Asset management and administration fees increased by 14% year-over-year to $1.57 billion. This growth was primarily attributed to continued increases in Schwab money market funds, driven by the elevated interest rate environment, and growth in managed investing solutions and other fund categories reflecting strong asset gathering and market appreciation.
