Dear Monika Nielsen

With regards to your request for information received on 15 August 2024, I
would be grateful if you could clarify the following:

Can you confirm if you also wants detail of BCBC investment activities
carried out with banks as it does have investments with banks as well?

If I do not receive clarification from you within one month, I will close
the file.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely

Tina Delaney
