City & Financial Global is pleased to announce that its annual City Remuneration Summit will be taking place on 27 April 2026. The Summit is a long established and highly regarded event which has, over the years, become the “go to” gathering for senior remuneration, reward and compensation specialists. It is unique in that it focuses exclusively on FCA/PRA regulated financial institutions, and the particular issues they face from a regulatory perspective.

The regulatory landscape for financial services remuneration has shifted significantly following PS21/25 and subsequent reforms. The removal of the bonus cap, changes to proportionality, heightened scrutiny of non-financial misconduct, and increasing supervisory focus on culture and ESG have materially reshaped remuneration strategy.

The City Remuneration Summit brings together senior practitioners from banking, asset management and cross-border groups to examine what the new regime means in practice - and how firms can design legitimate, future-proof reward frameworks under continued regulatory constraint.
