Nexus Phase

Mr. Brian Goggin:

No, I think ... No, at the end of the day, you know, in structuring a very complex business which is what Bank of Ireland was and is, you look at how you can fund it, where you can get your capital, how you underwrite your risk, how you calibrate the risk, and you make a series of decisions, ultimately, in an integrated format and you consider all aspects of that strategy in terms of the risks applying to it. We made a decision, we made a very deliberate decision, to increase our wholesale funding to grow our business.
