Authors



Abstract

Reflects on the Advocate General's Opinion in United Kingdom v European Parliament (C-507/13), challenging measures in Regulation 575/2013 and Directive 2013/36 which cap bankers' bonuses on the basis that: (1) the provisions on which the measures were based were inappropriate; (2) they infringed the principle of legal certainty; and (3) the powers vested by the measures were ultra vires. Explains how the ruling effectively "turned on its head" a public discourse argument against the cap.
