Now, when you look at the business in credit, take credit as a just under $700 billion, you have...
slightly over $300 billion, our own balance sheet.
The other balance is third-party investors investing in our products.
Almost all of the investors investing in our products are in sub-investment grade, high-returning credit strategies, direct lending, asset-backed, and high-returning credit strategies.
We're going into the more fixed-income replacement, investment-grade solution, business and third-party.
We've never really raised any money there.
The other half is just our own balance sheet, which is 95% investment grade, 5% alternative, where we're making a spread.

We have a climate business.
We have a hybrid business, which does everything outside of performing credit.
