Good morning, everybody. This is my first earnings call as Chief Executive of Barclays. It's a great honor to follow three century long line of stewards of this company.
While I'm new in this job, I have been at Barclays for a number of years. I was part of the management team that developed the strategy we set out in 2016 and delighted now that we are seeing the benefits of that strategy in the results which we are about to discuss.
