The bank said profit slipped 6.9% from the year earlier period to $6.9 billion, or 83 cents a share, as the company’s net interest income declined amid higher interest rates. Revenue climbed less than 1% to $25.54 billion.

The firm was helped by a 29% increase in investment banking fees to $1.56 billion, edging out the $1.51 billion StreetAccount estimate. Asset management fees rose 14% to $3.37 billion, buoyed by higher stock market values, helping the firm’s wealth management division post a 6.3% increase in revenue to $5.57 billion, essentially matching the estimate.

Net interest income slipped 3% to $13.86 billion, also matching the StreetAccount estimate.
