RWA decreased $9.0bn over 1H21, mostly from lower credit RWA
(CRWA), partly offset by non-credit risk
CRWA reduced $12.3bn due to:

growth
Improved asset quality metrics across corporate and small business
portfolios, including $1.6 billion reduction in the RWA overlay for
corporate, business and specialised lending
Lower counterparty credit and mark-to-market risk
RWA floor on mortgages to 23.8% increased CRWA $3.7bn
