The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has launched a review into the application of Mifid II regulations and the unbundling of research costs.
It plans to write to asset managers, investment banks, specialist brokers and independent providers to ask for details about research pricing models, governance and decision-making related to research provision and pricing methodologies.
The review is expected to last six months.
The news comes nearly six months after Mifid II came into effect. The impact on the market is as yet quite unclear, but RSRCHXchange’s latest buy-side survey sheds some light on investor attitudes to the changes.
