WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO?
Update your Client Configuration reference data (CRD_CL_CFG_) by adding an additional column 'discretionary_investment_manager' at the end of the file.
This can be completed directly in the grid editor if you are storing your reference data file in the Portal.
New field is relevant to MiFIR reports and should be populated with ‘Y’ or ‘N’ indicating if the reporting counterparty is providing discretionary management service for their clients.
