Letters from the Chairman
September 30, 2009
In the third quarter 2009, we saw further signs of stabilization returning to the world’s financial markets. Equity markets continued to rally; liquidity continued to return, in an atmosphere of lower volatility, and corporations and institutions around the world continued to return to the capital markets for both debt and equity funding. Nevertheless, challenges remain in the wider economy. Unemployment remains high, and continues to climb in some countries and industries. Consumer spending is subdued in a difficult credit environment. In North America, the housing market is still weak. In important emerging economies, economic momentum has returned, but in some important developed economies, the pace of recovery remains fragile. In addition, the main lines of the post-crisis regulatory framework for the banking industry are becoming clearer, particularly since the G-20 summit meeting of world leaders in Pittsburgh in September.
In this quarter, we again delivered a solid profit, whilst maintaining strict balance sheet discipline and further bolstering our capital strength; in addition, we took important steps in expanding our platform; and we defined the broad lines of the next phase of our strategy.
