Can I go back to questions I was asking in relation to your statement about the banks being well capitalised, profitable, strong and able to withstand the shocks that were coming? You mentioned that you weren't aware of anything that wasn't in the public domain. So, I want to go back to some of these positions. So, for example, in relation to Anglo and the contracts for difference and we know that in March of that year, three months before you made this statement, that it was already seeping out to sectors that there may be an issue and that some people suggest that was the reason for the St. Patrick's Day massacre. Was the IBF aware of this or not?
