The European Banking Authority published draft revised guidelines on the remuneration benchmarking exercise and the data collection exercise for high earners.
The European Banking Authority ("EBA") published for
consultation draft revised guidelines on the remuneration
benchmarking exercise and the data collection exercise for high
earners. Under CRD IV (comprised of the Capital Requirements
Regulation and the Capital Requirements Directive), national EU
regulators must provide data collected from individual firms to the
EBA relating to remuneration levels and components of remuneration.

the differences. The deadline for submission of responses is 7 May
2014.
