independent advice is still marginal. There are currently around 500,000
financial intermediaries in the German market, most of whom are single-tied.
The European Commission has introduced a number of regulatory reforms
affecting financial services in the EU. IMD and MiFiD regulation are likely to
have a profound impact on the German financial advice channel.
