Discover Financial Services at KBW Cards, Payments & Financial Technology Symposium Transcript
All right. We're going to get started here. Our next speaker is Roger Hochschild, CEO of Discover. He's joining for the first time in his role as CEO. So thank you, Roger, for joining us, and congratulations again.
So Discover reported earnings about a month ago, and it looks like 2019 is setting up to be another solid year of growth and earnings as well, under a pretty positive macro backdrop. We're obviously not seeing any materially weak macro threats, but obviously, investors are very concerned about that. And we'll dig into that a little bit.
Questions & Answers
