Fred and Rahil are working on getting volumes for your group to estimate the marginal cost per transaction at different volume levels. We will use that information to estimate the cost side going forward. On the revenue side I believe that it can be misleading to use a cost plus approach and that we will be better off estimating the price counterparties are willing to pay for the service based on market comparables from the benchmarking studies Sally contracted a while ago. We will also take into account for pricing other variables as the contingent liability risks that they are avoiding by outsourcing their back office function and the issue of information confidentiality.

Unfortunately, since Sally is out this week, I had not seen this note. James has all of the marginal cost information, which can be used to work from - I still believe that the approach we discussed in our meeting before lunch today is the right one. We need to create some customer profiles which include the number of transactions at each level and for each of the potential services to calculate some potential cost base scenarios --- from which we can gross up to a potential revenue number. Rahil -- I would like to discuss the next steps, and who we put on point (specifically) for each task.

I would really like to use Rahil's expertise at EOL to try to size the potential market going forward. On the other side, I would appreciate getting feedback about the marginal per transaction cost at different volume levels as presented in the document we discussed this morning. I will be available to help in any way needed. Thanks in advance for your help Marc
