He served at a difficult time for the bank and for the economy. The Board benefited greatly over this period from his financial services industry and general commercial experience together with his calm demeanour and thoughtful consideration of the issues. I want to record the Board's and the Group's sincerest thanks to Tom and to wish him the very best in the future."
