Sean, welcome to high performance. Thanks very much. So I want to just start by rewinding the clock. Twenty five years, you're sitting in a London office. You're on the phone to a colleague of yours in New York when the line suddenly goes dead. And that colleague was inside the North Tower.

Of the World Trade Center. Cancer Fitzgerald would lose six hundred and fifty eight people that morning, around two thirds of their New York workforce. And the next day You were pulled out of accounting and told to help rebuild the business. And what followed, I think, is not just a story of survival, but of responsibility. Of leadership, of culture, of extraordinary generosity.

All of the values that we hold so dear here on high performance. And today we have this conversation with you as the co CEO. Of BGC group and the charity day born. From that tragedy has now raised more than two hundred and twenty million dollars.
