Santomassimo discussed the bank's trading and investment banking performance, noting that the trading business had shown "good, consistent performance" for four or five quarters, partly due to market volatility and investments in people and capabilities. He added that the first quarter can be seasonally high and not a run rate. Regarding investment banking, Santomassimo said the bank saw "a large amount of activity," including some M&A activity off a low base, though he described the business as "episodic" and noted some activity may have been pulled forward from later in the year.
