Exceptional Government Intervention

10.1

A firm that benefits from exceptional government intervention must ensure that:

  1. (1) variable remuneration is strictly limited as a percentage of net revenues when it is inconsistent with the maintenance of a sound capital base and timely exit from government support;
  2. (2) it restructures remuneration in a manner aligned with sound risk management and long-term growth, including when appropriate establishing limits to the remuneration of members of its management body; and
  3. (3) no variable or discretionary remuneration of any kind is paid to members of its management body unless this is justified.
