Achieving Quotes

Our overriding goal for Morgan Stanley is to be the clear leader in offering premier, innovative financial services to our clients, while delivering superior returns to our shareholders.

Additional Quotes
The US credit card industry is in a low-growth stage right now about 3 to 5 percent annually and the rising cost of funds puts additional pressure on earnings in the short term. But given the strengths of Discover, its powerful brand name and its continuing strong return on investment, retaining the business and investing in it over time give us a good chance to create value through domestic growth in excess of industry trends, growth in international profit and the unique opportunities in the payments business.
