To interrogate that general point a little further, how would Mr. Maloney describe the culture of the board? It was populated by some very significant players in the Irish and, arguably, the international financial system. There were probably more Gordon Gekkos than Mother Teresas on it at the time. Did Mr. Maloney find it to be an intimidating environment, an environment that was somewhat macho? These were big players in the Irish banking system and Irish business. Mr. Maloney and others on the board had a long track record of positive public service. Did Mr. Maloney find himself in any way in thrall to Seán FitzPatrick, Lar Bradshaw and people like that?
