UCITS V Remuneration guidelines - ESMA takes a "proportionate" approach
24 July 2015CITS managers breathed a collective sigh of relief yesterday following the publication of ESMA’s Consultation Paper on UCITS remuneration guidelines.
There had been fears that ESMA may have followed the EBA’s conservative approach to proportionality in its consultation on the CRD IV remuneration code.

In this publication we summarise key points from the consultation paper and discuss the next steps for UCITS managers.
