We're not changing any guidance, but if you look in this last quarter, we actually did travel up slightly higher than that particular ratio. I think as both Robin and I have said with A healthy balance sheet, as we have now, and the excess cash, that does enable us to look at opportunities.

That remains an area we're very interested in, and we remain very interested in wealth management and growing distribution in that size. So all I would say, Suneet, for the right deal at the right price and where we can see accretion for our shareholders, we would be very interested in looking at them. But it's not our strategy. Our strategy remains to build out those businesses. And if we see a way to accelerate it, we will certainly look at it.

We saw some one-time benefits, but at Big piece of that, I would say 30% to 50% will remain, just as Mark pointed out in his remarks, that I think there's going to be less travel. There's going to be less real estate costs going forward.
