So, yeah, so changes on prospectuses, changes on the debt side, as you just mentioned as well.
What other areas are you looking at?
Is there still more to come and more that you can do?
Yeah, I mean, I guess to inject a note of scepticism here, I mean, you know, all very well talking about UK markets hitting record highs, as I think the Chancellor probably would have done.
And, you know, talking about a new golden age, former Chancellor talking about Big Bang 2.0.
But can you understand why there can be a degree of scepticism from people in the city who hear politicians talking big, but maybe don't necessarily feel that they've delivered all that much?
Yeah, I mean, maybe one specific risk we could we could talk about then, given that greater appetite for risk, and also, as you said, the desire to see more retail participation, obviously huge theme in in markets and in finance at the moment, is the explosion in private markets that we're seeing Wall Street, you know, hugely excited about the opportunity of

President Trump has linked his desire for the US to own Greenland to not being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
In a letter obtained by Bloomberg, Trump told Norway's Prime Minister that he no longer feels an obligation to think purely of peace.
Here's our chief Europe correspondent, Oliver Crook.
Bloomberg's Oliver Crook speaking there after the US president on Saturday announced a 10% levy due to take effect next month and rising to 25% by June on eight European countries, including the UK, Germany, France and Denmark.
The move came after the nations committed to holding token NATO military drills in Greenland.
Those EU leaders will hold an emergency meeting in the coming days to discuss possible retaliation to Trump's latest tariff threat.
Member states are discussing several options, including levies on more than $100 billion of US goods.
Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron says the bloc should consider using its most powerful trade tool, the anti-coercion instrument.
