Page Content

The European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) published today further guidance on the Key Information Document (KID) requirements for Packaged Retail and Insurance-based Investment Products (PRIIPs) laid down in the European Commission's Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/653. The guidance promotes common supervisory approaches and practices in the implementation of the KID and consists of:

• Additional Questions and Answers (Q&A) to supplement those already published on 4 July 2017
• Diagrams explaining the risk and reward calculations required to prepare the KID, and including example calculations

The ESAs will continue to assess whether further guidance is needed, in particular based on additional questions received.

Stakeholders are invited to submit any new questions to the following address PRIIPseiopa [dot] europa [dot] eu (PRIIPs[at]eiopa[dot]europa[dot]eu).
