Phoenix Spree Deutschland Ltd, up 2.5% at 200.89p, 12-month range 181p-355p. The Berlin, Germany-based residential real estate investor proposes to cap all ongoing fees to its advisor, QSix, to EUR5.0 million, other than a new disposal fee and any asset and estate management performance fee. The cap would start from July 1 for a 12-month period. Will let shareholders vote on the proposal at its annual general meeting. "[The proposal] should ensure closer alignment of the property advisor's incentives with the company's short-term strategic priorities and in practice will likely result in a lower level of fees being paid over the next 12 months than under the existing term," says Chair Robert Hingley.
