Okay. I just want to look at two other areas then, if I may, in the time I have left. One is this reliance on wholesale funding. Because in 1998 100% of funding for the society came from retail deposits. In 2001 it's down to 70%. By 2008 it's 47%. Was this shift intentional? Did the board see it as a risk at the time? Did they understand the potential risks at the time?
