A revised version of the remuneration code, then part of the Handbook of the Financial Services Authority (FSA) came into force on 1 January 2011. This note sets out key information about the revised code in a set of frequently asked questions.
This note is not maintained and relates to the revised FSA code as it stood in 2011. Since 1 April 2013, the remuneration code (which is still SYSC 19A) has been part of the Handbooks of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA). A new practice note on the current remuneration code is under development.
