The pandemic has impacted businesses globally including virtually every geography in which the Company operates. Governments continue to ease restrictions or fully reopen their economies, as the various vaccines are effective in mitigating the effects of the virus. Our businesses have been resilient throughout the pandemic and demand for our advice and services remains strong as the global economic conditions improve. </span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Although the vast majority of colleagues continue to work in a remote environment, the Company has provided guidelines on a gradual and phased return to the office depending on the level of virus containment and local health and safety regulations in each geography. The safety and well-being of our colleagues is paramount and the Company expects to continue to service clients effectively in the current remote environment and as colleagues gradually return to the office.</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company had strong revenue growth through the first nine months of 2021 and benefited from the continued recovery of the global economy. However, uncertainty remains in the economic outlook and the ultimate extent of COVID-19 impact to the Company will depend on future developments that it is unable to predict, including new "waves" of infection from emerging variants of the virus, potential renewed restrictions and mandates by various governments or agencies, and the distribution and uptake of vaccines.</span></div>
