To cut right to the chase, are there going to be instances when banks will say no to candidates or parties? I think the answer to that question is probably yes.
It goes back to a question I answered earlier about the sensitivity on the part of banking institutions to being seen as supporting one party over another through financing. It comes back to what we've talked about a great deal in terms of risk management. If Parliament deems that this is the regime that should be in place for political financing, which we will abide by, does it extend to putting aside risk management consideration? Right now, we are still bound by our prudential considerations. Those have to be front and centre in our minds.
I guess one only knows, in some instances, the viability after the fact. In your question you referred to being able to win with less than 50% and so forth. It goes back to a comment I made a minute ago that I didn't expand on very well. It is about the campaign's viability, which doesn't always necessarily mean its electoral success, because a campaign can be a successful financial entity without translating into electoral success. That is part of the perspective of the banking industry.
