I did in 2013 the largest banking transaction that the market had seen since the financial crisis, it was a $2.4 And I did the math, and I think at that point in time, roughly speaking, assets in ETS were roughly just 10 percent, 12 percent of assets in mutual funds and I was pretty convinced that that number was to increase significantly.
