Nabarro is set to overhaul its partner remuneration system, with the firm looking at increasing the size of a bonus pool used to reward star performers and expand the criteria used for deciding partner compensation.

The firm introduced merit-based pay for partners more than 10 years ago and currently sets aside around 1% of its profits for a bonus pool used to reward a handful of top performers. It is now considering increasing this to around 5% of profits, to give it more flexibility to better reward high achievers.
