Packaged Retail and Insurance-based Investment Products

Why PRIIPs?

Since the 1st January 2018, manufacturers of Packaged Retail and Insurance-based Investment Products (PRIIPs) have been required by the EU to produce a new Key Information Document (KID).

All KIDs require close collaboration with the product manufacturer to reflect their views of market practice, and their expectations on risk, returns and costs. The main goal of the PRIIPs Regulation is to enhance investor protection standards for retail clients and increase transparency in the market, particularly with respect to sales and distribution.

The PRIIPs Regulation requires that a KID is a stand-alone, standardised document prepared for each investment. A KID can be up to a maximum of 3 sides of A4-sized paper and may refer to other documents such as a prospectus if the cross-reference is related to the information required to be included in the KID, or refer to where detailed information can be found. A KID may also provide information about underlying options for one product (such as a life policy) within one document.

Do I need a KID?

PRIIPsNon-PRIIPs
Investment funds (closed ended or open ended including UCITS)Basic banking products that contain no element of packaging such as deposit accounts (which are not structured);
All structured productsBasic banking products that contain no element of packaging such as deposit accounts (which are not structured);
Insurance products whose surrender values are determined indirectly by returns on the insurance company’s own investments or even the profitability of the insurance company itselfPlain shares and bonds (where there is a direct holding of the relevant assets);
Derivative investmentsInsurance products that only offer insurance benefits, such as pure protection or non-life insurance (where the surrender value is not dependent on fluctuations in the performance of one or more underlying assets or reference values);
Structured depositsVarious pension schemes, such as occupational pension schemes and certain other employment based pension schemes which are mandatorily required by national law (e.g. auto enrolled schemes).
Products issued by SPVPension funds
Investment products that may not have a packaged element but describe themselves as ‘guaranteed’ where the investment return may vary, or even where all or a portion of the investment return is guaranteed.

What do KID calculations look like?

Classed as High Risk. Priced less regular than monthly, possibly a derivative, does not have appropriate benchmark. Can lose more than invested. For example, Shorts, Options, Futures, Swaps, CFDs.

1234567

The risk indicator assumes you keep the product for 5 years. Be aware of currency risk. The PRIIP holds no capital protection against market risk. The PRIIP holds no capital guarantee against credit risk. The summary risk indicator is a guide to the level of risk of this product compared to other products. It shows how likely it is that the product will lose money because of movements in the market or because we are not able to pay you. We have classified this product as 4 out 7, which is a medium risk class. This rates the potential losses from future performance at a medium level, and poor market conditions could impact our capacity to pay you. This product does not include any protection from future market performance so you could lose some or all of your investment. If we are not able to pay what is owed, you could lose your entire investment.
