Packaged Retail Investment and Insurance based Products

Proven standard at fixed costs, flexible service when required

PRIIPs

As of January 1st 2018, the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/653 – the PRIIPs Regulation - requires closed-end Investment Funds offering so called ‘Packaged Retail Investment and Insurance based Products’ (PRIIPs) to retail customers make a Key Information Document (KID). The KID is a legal document designed to inform retail investors on their potential investment and allow them to easily compare various investments opportunities. The KID must contain a summary risk indicator (SRI), performance scenarios as well as an indication of costs to the investor. We expect that this PRIIPs Regulations also comes into effect for UCITS and open-ended AIFs from July 2022 onwards.
