ECB's Sabine Lautenschlager on Brexit banking passport tests

Refreshing honesty from a perfect representative of the 'Deep State', German version. Fortunately the major banks - they are the ones who do the predominant share of Continental European business - are well established in relevant countries.

AllianceBernstein tries Performance Fees

The basic fee of 0.05% in case the funds underperform are quite meagre, will this approach be sustainable? The fee income has to pay for a lot of expenses.
