That leads me to my last question for the moment. Mr. Carrigan has indicated that as Europe moves to some level of regulation in this area, there seems to be a divergence of views. I note the cautionary tone in his message on what would be an appropriate level of regulation. I noted the way he broke down statistics for what was happening in the USA on funding structures, as well as in Ireland and Europe. Will we end up with a harmonised approach between Ireland and the USA or will we end up with a divergent view on how this area of finance is regulated between both regions?
