Renumeration Disclosure

Introduction

In accordance with the FCA’s Investment Firms Prudential Regime (IFPR) and specifically MIFIDPRU 8.6, Investa Markets Limited ("the Firm") is required to publish a summary of its remuneration policy and practices annually.

‍

IML is classified as a Small and Non-Interconnected (SNI) investment firm and has drafted this disclosure in accordance with the Basic Remuneration Requirements set out in SYSC 19G of the FCA Handbook.

‍

Although these may still be part of our remuneration policies, as an SNI the Firm is exempt from disclosures related to:

‍

• Material Risk Takers
• Deferral of variable remuneration
• Payment in shares or non-cash instruments
• Malus and clawback

‍‍

‍

Objectives

The objectives of the Firm's remuneration policy are to:

‍

• Promote sound and effective risk management.
• Discourage risk-taking that exceeds the Firm’s risk appetite.
• Ensure remuneration is consistent with the Firm’s business strategy, objectives, and values.
• Avoid conflicts of interest.
• Ensure gender neutrality in remuneration practices.

‍

‍

Governance

The Executive Committee (EC) is responsible for adopting, implementing, and maintaining this policy. The EC conducts a review at least annually to ensure the policy remains compliant with FCA regulations and appropriate for the Firm's size. Additionally:

‍

• The Board of Directors provides an annual attestation that all remuneration has been granted within policy requirements.
• Staff in control functions (e.g., Compliance, Risk) are remunerated independently of the business units they oversee to ensure objective performance.

Components of renumeration

The Firm’s remuneration structure consists of two main components which will be disclosed at the end of each financial year as a regulated company:

‍

• Fixed Remuneration: Includes base salary, benefits, and pension. This component is permanent, pre-determined, and non-discretionary. It represents a sufficiently high proportion of total pay to allow for a fully flexible variable remuneration policy.
• Variable Remuneration: Includes discretionary bonuses and commissions based on a combination of financial and non-financial performance metrics. The Firm will not award variable remuneration if it would compromise its ability to maintain a sound capital base.
