About these figures
- Revenue is net of interest expense (net interest income plus fees and other income), the way banks and brokers report it.
- For banks, brokers, card lenders and insurers, operating cash flow mostly moves with loans, deposits, trading and insurance reserves, so free cash flow says little about them and is not shown.
- Older years are as filed at the time and may predate later restatements, mergers or spin-offs. How the figures are made.
