Good morning, everyone, and thanks for joining us today to talk about our fourth quarter and full year results for 2023.
I am here with Deb Schoneman, our President; and Kate Clune, our newly appointed CFO. I'd like to welcome Kate to her first of many earnings calls. She is an excellent addition to Piper Sandler and our leadership team. Kate has an impressive skill set, and we look forward to leveraging that to help drive the firm's next stage of growth.
We also have Tim Carter with us today, our former CFO, who is serving as Senior Vice President of Finance through the transition before retiring in April. I'd like to thank Tim for his leadership. He has been an incredible partner to me and instrumental in helping guide us through our growth over the years, including several transformative acquisitions.
