**Affirmed position.** Remuneration Policies in Investment Firms presents the following source proposition: The regulation of remuneration in investment firms is one of many attempts to regulate with the purpose of improving corporate governance. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Contingent convertible bonds placed in executive compensation serve a different purpose than those sold to investors: the point is not capital infusion during a crisis but governance-improving design that optimizes management incentives. The proposed response is an extension: the relationship should remain limited to the retrieved source proposition and the mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
