Wealth management assets under management, advisement and administration, including the wealth acquisition, were $10.8 billion at year end (October 31, 2020 – $8.5 billion). The wealth acquisition contributed $5.8 billion to assets under management, advisement and administration at the June 1, 2020 acquisition date, which grew to $7.1 billion at October 31, 2021 (October 31, 2020 – $5.9 billion), primarily due to market value appreciation supported by full advisor retention and no significant client attrition related to our acquisition. Indigenous Services assets under advisement of $1.7 billion at acquisition have increased to $2.0 billion at October 31, 2021 (October 31, 2020 – $1.8 billion).

Other assets under administration totaled $14.0 billion at October 31, 2021 (October 31, 2020 – $11.1 billion). The increase from last year reflected CWB Trust Services growth.

Other off-balance sheet items are comprised of standard industry credit instruments (guarantees, standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit). We do not utilize, nor do we have exposure to, collateralized debt obligations or credit default swaps. For additional information regarding other off-balance sheet items refer to Note 19 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2021.

SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS AND FOURTH QUARTER QUARTERLY RESULTS

The financial results for each of the last eight quarters are summarized in Table 27. In general, our performance reflects a consistent growth trend, although the second quarter contains three fewer revenue-earning days and two fewer days during leap years, such as 2020. The financial results beginning in the second quarter of 2020 were adversely impacted primarily by the emergence of COVID-19 and related market disruption, while results in 2021 reflect the impact of the ongoing economic recovery. Detailed MD&A along with unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for each quarter, except for the fourth quarters, are available for review on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on our website at www.cwb.com. Copies of the quarterly reports to shareholders can also be obtained, free of charge, by contacting InvestorRelations@cwbank.com.
