The "Investment Research Unbundling: Implications for the Buy-Side" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Among the raft of legislative standards set out under the European Union's revised Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID II), the unbundling of investment research from execution payments has been one of the most contentious. While unbundling may seem like nothing more than a process formality, its implications for the industry are profound, and it could have global repercussions. On the buy-side, firms are faced with the prospect of having to pay for something they traditionally receive without an explicit price. How will these firms react?
This report looks at the latest call for unbundling in the EU and its repercussions in the investment-research industry and across buy-side firms. It is based on Q1 2017 interviews with global and regional investment managers, brokers, independent research providers, and vendors to understand their perspectives and insights on the pending MiFID II regulation.
