ESAs call for improvements in product descriptions intended for retail investors
May 10, 2022--The European Supervisory Authorities (EBA, EIOPA and ESMA -ESAs) issued today a joint supervisory statement regarding the 'What is this product?' section of the key information document (KID) for packaged retail and insurance-based investment products (PRIIPs).
The expectations put forward in the supervisory statement aim at improving the quality of descriptions provided by PRIIPs manufacturers and thereby contribute to better protection of retail investors.
The ESAs have identified a range of poor practices in how PRIIP manufacturers describe products under this section. Most issues relate to a general lack of clarity in the text, which makes it difficult for retail investors to understand the key features of products.
