    Complementary Information

    BCI has government relations, legal and tax personnel working on EU-specific transactions and supporting monitoring and advocacy concerning ongoing regulatory change.

    While BCI has 4 people engaged in activities falling under the register, all spend significantly below 10 percent of their working time on such activities. The FTE should therefore be less than 0.4. However, 10 percent is the minimum that can be chosen for each person involved from the organization expressed in percentage of working time.
