So welcome, everyone. I think you would have had the media briefing. So we can, as usual, go straight to Q&A. It’s a hybrid session. There is actually some people in the room. [Operator Instructions] But why don’t we start with some questions in the room first. Harsh?

Question-and-Answer Session

Yes, thanks. Thanks again and congratulations. Thanks for doing it in person and great results. Two questions. First on buyback, second on ALM, the point you made, Piyush, on comparing to JPM and Apple was very interesting, because these guys over the last decade have canceled about 30% odd of shares. So the question is to you and Su Shan is, is this more one-off because you guys had this big capital release and maybe another $3 billion, $5 billion we had done or is it beginning of that a decade-long journey where you cancel out a big chunk of shares? And then the related question to that is, does the Temasek shareholding at some point in time become an issue? So how do we dimension that? And also, how do you do this share buyback? Is it a more on weakness or is it you buy everyday kind of thing? So, some of those details on buybacks. Second one on ALM, I’ll go after that.
