Currently, we are strong in the banking space, both corporate and investment banking, and have significantly strengthened our asset management capabilities. We look to add one or two other professionals that could round out our offering in areas such as insurance as well as functional skill sets like chief financial officers. We want to focus at the C-suite level. We will also look to form strategic partnerships with individuals who can add to the body for work.
