There is not yet a specific timeframe to introduce an equivalent of RDR to Ireland and there is an argument that says there will never be a formal timetable.
However, some organisations are already following some RDR principles – wealth managers being fee-based is the main one – while the majority of others are already considering the implications of how their business model may have to operate effectively in what will undoubtedly become an RDR-type environment.
The possible implementation of RDR is just one of the topics discussed at Portfolio Adviser‘s Investment Roundtable, Dublin.
