Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (Resumed)

Mr. Brian McEnery:
Lazard was retained on the basis that the board of NAMA had analysed the portfolio and said that its minimum was €1.3 billion. In fact, the way the engagement with Lazard was structured was that the pricing mechanism around how it got paid would be higher if it went to a party other than PIMCO.
