For many years, the City Pay Guide has been a trusted source of remuneration data, providing participating organisations with valuable insights into market trends, salary levels and reward practices across the financial services sector.

By incorporating the City Pay Guide Survey into our portfolio, we are enhancing the range and quality of market insights available to the financial services sector, supporting more informed reward, talent and strategic decision-making.

MM&K intends to build on the survey’s strong foundations, ensuring continuity for existing participants while investing in its future development. Participants can expect the same commitment to data quality, confidentiality and insightful reporting that has underpinned the survey’s success to date.
