Perspectives Management Regulation

Perspectives Global Management, trading as Perspectives Management, is regulated by the LEI Luxembourg.
Perspectives Global Management was authorised under the Investments Intermediaries Act, 2017 in November 2017, and subsequently by the EU Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II (MiFID II) and Regulation (MiFIR) on the 14 February 2018.

Certain financial services to third parties provided by Perspectives Management fall within its scope, and our authorisation to provide these regulated services is described below. All other services provided by Perspectives Management are unregulated services.

The Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation (MiFIR), Regulation (EU) No 600/2014, is a central EU legislative framework enforcing strict transparency, reporting, and trading rules on financial markets, heavily revised in 2024 (MiFIR Review). It works alongside MiFID II to ensure fair, transparent, and efficient markets, applying uniformly across EU member states since January 2018.

Information required under the EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation
Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2019/2088) seeks to introduce rules for Financial Market Participants (‘FMP’s’) and Financial Advisers (‘FA’s’) with regards to the integration of sustainability risks into their processes, as well as the provision of sustainability-related information in financial products.

The regulation requires FMP’s and FA’s to consider sustainability risks across various aspects of their operations, including disclosures, integration into policies, investment process, product governance and wider internal processes and systems.

The term ‘sustainability risk’ refers to an environmental, social or governance (‘ESG’) event or condition that could cause an actual or a potential negative impact on the value of an investment.

Sustainability Factors are defined as environmental, social and employee matters, respect for human rights, anti-corruption and anti-bribery matters. FMP’s and FA’s have an option to consider the principal adverse impacts of investment decisions on sustainability factors in their advice processes.

The Perspectives Global Management Service Model
Perspectives Management provides non-discretionary investment services via its ‘Execution of orders on behalf of clients’ authorisation. An ‘execution-only’ service is a term that is used for a platform that does not offer advice when allowing investors to select which products or funds to invest in.

Perspectives Management has limited discretion when managing surplus cash arising from client’s liquidity operations. Perspectives Management can choose within a narrow range of investment products (cash and/or MMF’s with high rated banks) and counterparties, all defined by the client.

By nature of the services provided, Perspectives Global Management does not consider the principal adverse impacts on sustainability factors of investment decisions or investment advice provided by external regulated investment intermediaries.

Remuneration Policy
Perspectives Global Management has a board approved remuneration policy. There are no commission / investment performance incentive arrangements for employees.
