  We study the effects of superconducting pairing in small metallic grains. We
show that in the limit of large Thouless conductance one can explicitly
determine the low energy spectrum of the problem as an expansion in the inverse
number of electrons on the grain. The expansion is based on the formal exact
solution of the Richardson model. We use this expansion to calculate finite
size corrections to the ground state energy, Matveev-Larkin parameter, and
excitation energies.
