Thank you, my esteemed colleague.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Ryan, for joining us today.
I would like to follow up on a question asked earlier by my colleague, Mr. Leitão, regarding uncertainty.
I worked in the banking industry for 20 years. I've spoken with former colleagues. They're currently tearing their hair out. As you know, predictability for banks stems from the sustainability of businesses over the long term. I'm also a member of the Standing Committee on International Trade. All the witnesses say that they have never seen so much unpredictability on a global scale.
You have over 30 years of experience. We have a special situation, given the unpredictability and uncertainty of the markets. How will you incorporate this into your analyses? We know that, in the past 30 years, it may not have been as necessary to include as many variables. Of course, there are always variables and we need to anticipate them. However, we can agree that there will be many more.
How will you incorporate all this uncertainty into your analyses and recommendations?
