PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated February 26, 2016)

THE PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC.
525,000 Depositary Shares Each Representing a 1/100th
Interest in a Share of Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series S
We are offering 525,000 depositary shares each representing a 1/100th ownership interest in a share of Fixed-to-Floating Non-Cumulative
Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series S, $1.00 par value, with a liquidation preference of $100,000 per share (equivalent to $1,000 per depositary
share) (the "Preferred Stock"). As a holder of depositary shares, you will be entitled to all proportional rights and preferences of the Preferred
Stock (including dividend, voting, redemption and liquidation rights). You must exercise such rights through the depositary.
For a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an investment in the depositary shares, see "Risk Factors " in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and all subsequent filings under Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as well as the additional risk factors contained in this
prospectus supplement beginning on page S-14.
We will pay dividends on the Preferred Stock, when, as, and if declared by our board of directors or a duly authorized committee of the board.
Dividends will accrue and be payable from the date of issuance to, but excluding, November 1, 2026 at a rate of 5.00% per annum, payable semi-
annually, in arrears, on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on May 1, 2017 and ending on November 1, 2026. From and including
November 1, 2026, we will pay dividends when, as, and if declared by our board or such committee at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR
plus a spread of 3.30% per annum, payable quarterly, in arrears, on February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on
February 1, 2027. Upon payment of any dividends on the Preferred Stock, holders of depositary shares will receive a proportionate payment.
Dividends on the Preferred Stock will not be cumulative. If our board of directors or a duly authorized committee of the board does not declare a
dividend on the Preferred Stock in respect of a dividend period, then no dividend shall be deemed to have accrued for such dividend period, be
payable on the applicable dividend payment date, or be cumulative, and we will have no obligation to pay any dividend for that dividend period,
whether or not our board of directors or a duly authorized committee of our board declares a dividend on the Preferred Stock for any future
dividend period.
We may redeem the Preferred Stock at our option, (i) in whole or in part, from time to time, on any dividend payment date on or after November 1,
2026 at a redemption price equal to $100,000 per share (equivalent to $1,000 per depositary share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends, or (ii)
in whole but not in part, at any time within 90 days following a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event (as defined herein), at a redemption price
equal to $100,000 per share (equivalent to $1,000 per depositary share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends and any accrued and unpaid
dividends (whether or not declared) to the redemption date. If we redeem the Preferred Stock, the depositary will redeem a proportionate number
of depositary shares.
The Preferred Stock will not have any voting rights, except as set forth under "Description of Preferred Stock--Voting Rights" on page S-24.
Neither the Preferred Stock nor the depositary shares are deposits or other obligations of a bank or are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance

other than that contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference herein

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information
We make statements in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, and we may from time to time make other statements,
regarding our outlook for earnings, revenues, expenses, capital and liquidity levels and ratios, asset levels, asset quality, financial position, and
other matters regarding or affecting PNC and its future business and operations that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "believe," "plan," "expect,"
"anticipate," "see," "look," "intend," "outlook," "project," "forecast," "estimate," "goal," "will," "should" and other similar words and expressions.
Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Forward-looking statements
speak only as of the date made. We do not assume any duty and do not undertake to update forward-looking statements. Actual results or future
events could differ, possibly materially, from those anticipated in forward-looking statements, as well as from historical performance.

S-1
Table of Contents
Our forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties.

· Our businesses, financial results and balance sheet values are affected by business and economic conditions, including the following:

·
Changes in interest rates and valuations in debt, equity and other financial markets.

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/713676/000119312516751672/d271014d424b2.htm[11/1/2016 10:53:55 AM]

Prospectus Supplement
·
Disruptions in the U.S. and global financial markets.

·
The impact on financial markets and the economy of any changes in the credit ratings of U.S. Treasury obligations and other

U.S. government-backed debt, as well as issues surrounding the level of U.S. and European government debt and concerns
regarding the creditworthiness of certain sovereign governments, supranationals and financial institutions in Europe.

·
Actions by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (including any successor bank regulatory authority that may

become our appropriate federal banking agency, the "Federal Reserve"), U.S. Treasury and other government agencies,
including those that impact money supply and market interest rates.

·
Changes in customers', suppliers' and other counterparties' performance and creditworthiness.

·
Slowing or reversal of the current U.S. economic expansion.

·
Continued effects of recessionary conditions and uneven spread of positive impacts of recovery on the economy and our

counterparties, including adverse impacts on levels of unemployment, loan utilization rates, delinquencies, defaults and
counterparty ability to meet credit and other obligations.

·
Commodity price volatility.

·
Changes in customer preferences and behavior, whether due to changing business and economic conditions, legislative and

regulatory initiatives, or other factors.

· Our forward-looking financial statements are subject to the risk that economic and financial market conditions will be substantially
different than those we are currently expecting. These statements are based on our current view that the U.S. economy will grow
moderately in the latter half of 2016, boosted by stable oil/energy prices, improving housing activity and moderate job gains, and that

lower short-term interest rates and bond yields will hold fairly steady before gradually rising late this year. Specifically, our business
outlook reflects our expectation of a 25 basis point increase in short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve in December 2016. These
forward-looking statements also do not, unless otherwise indicated, take into account the impact of potential legal and regulatory
contingencies.

· PNC's ability to take certain capital actions, including paying dividends and any plans to increase common stock dividends, repurchase
common stock under current or future programs, or issue or redeem preferred stock or other regulatory capital instruments, is subject to

the review of such proposed actions by the Federal Reserve as part of PNC's comprehensive capital plan for the applicable period in
connection with the Federal Reserve's Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review ("CCAR") process and to the acceptance of such
capital plan and non-objection to such capital actions by the Federal Reserve.

· PNC's regulatory capital ratios in the future will depend on, among other things, the company's financial performance, the scope and
terms of final capital regulations then in effect (particularly those implementing the international regulatory capital framework
developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision ("Basel Committee"), the international body responsible for developing

global regulatory standards for banking organizations for consideration and adoption by national jurisdictions), and management actions
affecting the composition of PNC's balance sheet. In addition, PNC's ability to determine, evaluate and forecast regulatory capital
ratios, and to take actions (such as capital distributions) based on actual or forecasted capital ratios, will be dependent at least in part on
the development, validation and regulatory approval of related models.

S-2
Table of Contents
· Legal and regulatory developments could have an impact on our ability to operate our businesses, financial condition, results of
operations, competitive position, reputation, or pursuit of attractive acquisition opportunities. Reputational impacts could affect matters

such as business generation and retention, liquidity, funding, and ability to attract and retain management. These developments could
include:

·
Changes resulting from legislative and regulatory reforms, including major reform of the regulatory oversight structure of the
financial services industry and changes to laws and regulations involving tax, pension, bankruptcy, consumer protection, and

other industry aspects, and changes in accounting policies and principles. We will be impacted by extensive reforms provided
for in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act") and otherwise growing out of
the recent financial crisis, the precise nature, extent and timing of which, and their impact on us, remains uncertain.

·
Changes to regulations governing bank capital and liquidity standards, including due to the Dodd-Frank Act and to initiatives of

the Basel Committee.

·
Unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or other claims and regulatory and other governmental investigations or other
inquiries. In addition to matters relating to PNC's current and historical business and activities, such matters may include
proceedings, claims, investigations, or inquiries relating to pre-acquisition business and activities of acquired companies, such

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/713676/000119312516751672/d271014d424b2.htm[11/1/2016 10:53:55 AM]

Prospectus Supplement
as National City Corporation. These matters may result in monetary judgments or settlements or other remedies, including fines,
penalties, restitution or alterations in our business practices, and in additional expenses and collateral costs, and may cause
reputational harm to PNC.

·
Results of the regulatory examination and supervision process, including our failure to satisfy requirements of agreements with

governmental agencies.

·
Impact on business and operating results of any costs associated with obtaining rights in intellectual property claimed by others

and of adequacy of our intellectual property protection in general.

· Business and operating results are affected by our ability to identify and effectively manage risks inherent in our businesses, including,
where appropriate, through effective use of third-party insurance, derivatives, and capital management techniques, and to meet evolving

regulatory capital and liquidity standards. In particular, our results currently depend on our ability to manage elevated levels of
impaired assets.

· Business and operating results also include impacts relating to our equity interest in BlackRock, Inc. ("BlackRock") and rely to a

significant extent on information provided to us by BlackRock. Risks and uncertainties that could affect BlackRock are discussed in
more detail by BlackRock in its SEC filings.

· We grow our business in part by acquiring, from time to time, other financial services companies, financial services assets and related
deposits and other liabilities. Acquisition risks and uncertainties include those presented by the nature of the business acquired,

including in some cases those associated with our entry into new businesses or new geographic or other markets and risks resulting
from our inexperience in those new areas, as well as risks and uncertainties related to the acquisition transactions themselves,
regulatory issues, and the integration of the acquired businesses into PNC after closing.

· Competition can have an impact on customer acquisition, growth and retention and on credit spreads and product pricing, which can
affect market share, deposits and revenues. Industry restructuring in the current environment could also impact our business and

financial performance through changes in counterparty creditworthiness and performance and in the competitive and regulatory
landscape. Our ability to anticipate and respond to technological changes can also impact our ability to respond to customer needs and
meet competitive demands.

Table of Contents
· Business and operating results can also be affected by widespread natural and other disasters, pandemics, dislocations, terrorist

activities, cyberattacks or international hostilities through impacts on the economy and financial markets generally or on us or our
counterparties specifically.

The following information about this offering summarizes, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in this
prospectus supplement and in the accompanying prospectus, and the documents incorporated herein and therein by reference. This summary

About The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.
PNC is one of the largest diversified financial services companies in the United States and is headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. PNC
has businesses engaged in retail banking, corporate and institutional banking, asset management, and residential mortgage banking, providing
many of its products and services nationally, as well as other products and services in PNC's primary geographic markets located in
Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, Michigan, Illinois, Maryland, Indiana, Florida, North Carolina, Kentucky, Washington, D.C., Delaware,
Virginia, Alabama, Georgia, Missouri, Wisconsin and South Carolina. PNC also provides certain products and services internationally. As of
September 30, 2016, PNC had total consolidated assets of approximately $369.3 billion, total consolidated deposits of approximately $259.9
billion and total consolidated shareholders' equity of approximately $45.7 billion.
PNC was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1983 with the consolidation of Pittsburgh National
Corporation and Provident National Corporation. Since 1983, we have diversified our geographical presence, business mix and product
capabilities through internal growth, strategic bank and non-bank acquisitions and equity investments, and the formation of various non-
banking subsidiaries.
PNC common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "PNC."
PNC is a holding company and services its obligations primarily with dividends and advances that it receives from subsidiaries. PNC's
subsidiaries that operate in the banking and securities businesses can pay dividends only if they are in compliance with the applicable
regulatory requirements imposed on them by federal and state bank regulatory authorities and securities regulators. PNC's subsidiaries may be
party to credit or other agreements that also may restrict their ability to pay dividends. PNC currently believes that none of these regulatory or
contractual restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends will affect PNC's ability to service its own debt or pay dividends on
its preferred stock. PNC must also maintain the required capital levels of a bank holding company before it may pay dividends on its stock.
Under the regulations of the Federal Reserve, a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for its subsidiary
banks. As a result of this regulatory policy, the Federal Reserve might require PNC to commit resources to its subsidiary banks, even when
doing so is not otherwise in the interests of PNC or its shareholders or creditors.
PNC's principal executive offices are located at The Tower at PNC Plaza, 300 Fifth Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222- 2401, and its
telephone number is 412-762-2000.

The Offering
The following description contains basic information about the depositary shares, the Preferred Stock and this offering. This description is not
complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in the depositary shares. For a more complete
understanding of the depositary shares and the Preferred Stock, you should read "Description of Preferred Stock" and "Description of
Depositary Shares" in this prospectus supplement as well as "Description of Preferred Stock" and "Description of Depositary Shares" in the
accompanying prospectus. To the extent the following information is inconsistent with the information in the accompanying prospectus, you
should rely on the following information.

Issuer
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.

Securities Offered
525,000 depositary shares each representing a 1/100th ownership interest in a share of
Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series S, $1.00 par
value, with a liquidation preference of $100,000 per share (equivalent to $1,000 per
depositary share) of PNC (the "Preferred Stock"). Each holder of a depositary share will
be entitled, through the depositary, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of
Preferred Stock represented by such depositary share, to all the rights and preferences of
the Preferred Stock represented thereby (including dividend, voting, redemption and
liquidation rights).

We reserve the right to re-open this series of Preferred Stock and issue additional shares
of the Preferred Stock and depositary shares representing the Preferred Stock either
through public or private sales at any time and from time to time. The additional shares
of Preferred Stock, and the depositary shares representing such Preferred Stock, would
form a single series with the shares of Preferred Stock and the depositary shares offered
by this prospectus supplement.

Dividends
We will pay dividends on the Preferred Stock, when, as, and if declared by our board of
directors or a duly authorized committee of the board. Dividends will accrue and be
payable from the date of issuance to, but excluding, November 1, 2026 at a rate
of 5.00% per annum, payable semi-annually, in arrears. From and including November
1, 2026, we will pay dividends based on the liquidation preference of the Preferred
Stock, when, as, and if declared by our board or such committee at a floating rate equal
to three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 3.30% per annum, payable quarterly, in arrears,
(each such rate, a "dividend rate"). See also "Dividend Payment Dates" on page S-11.
Upon payment of any dividends on the Preferred Stock, holders of depositary shares will
receive a related proportionate payment.

Dividends on the Preferred Stock will not be cumulative. If our board of directors or a
duly authorized committee of the board does not declare a dividend on the Preferred
Stock in respect of a dividend period, then no dividend shall be deemed to have accrued
for such dividend period, be payable on the applicable dividend payment date, or be
cumulative, and we will have no obligation to pay any dividend

for that dividend period, whether or not our board of directors or a duly authorized

committee of our board declares a dividend on the Preferred Stock for any future
dividend period.

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, dividends on the Preferred Stock shall not
be declared, paid or set aside for payment to the extent such act would cause PNC to fail

to comply with the laws and regulations applicable thereto, including applicable
regulatory capital rules.

Additionally, PNC shall not pay any dividends on the Preferred Stock if, based on
PNC's most recent quarterly consolidated financial statements, PNC's common equity

Tier 1 capital ratio is below the then-applicable regulatory minimum under the
regulatory risk-based capital rules promulgated by the Federal Reserve.

During any dividend period while the Preferred Stock is outstanding, unless, in each
case, the full dividends for the preceding dividend period on all outstanding shares of

Preferred Stock have been declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the
payment thereof has been set aside:

· no dividend will be declared or paid or set aside for payment and no distribution will

be declared or made or set aside for payment on any junior stock, other than:

· a dividend payable solely in junior stock, or

· any dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholders' rights plan,

or the redemption or repurchase of any rights under any such plan;

· no shares of junior stock shall be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for
consideration by us, directly or indirectly (nor shall any monies be paid to or made

available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such securities by us) other
than:

· as a result of a reclassification of junior stock for or into other junior stock;

· the exchange or conversion of one share of junior stock for or into another share of

junior stock;

· through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of other

shares of junior stock;

· purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of junior stock in

connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar
arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants;

· purchases of shares of junior stock pursuant to a contractually binding requirement

to buy junior stock existing prior to the preceding dividend period, including
under a contractually binding stock repurchase plan, or
