The Parliament has also approved an extension of the UCITS exemption in the PRIIPs Regulation of two years. It constitutes an acknowledgement that PRIIPs KID (Key Information Document) currently presents flaws that need to be corrected in an appropriate manner. Consumers will continue to benefit from the well-functioning UCITS KIID until the PRIIPs KID rules are appropriately designed to give accurate and clear information so and allow investors to make informed investment decisions.
Ahead of the trilogue discussions, EFAMA trusts that the Council and the Commission will agree this is the best outcome for the protection of the investors.
EFAMA joins the European Parliament’s call on the European Commission to review the PRIIPs regulation as soon as possible and solve all outstanding problems, including the methodology for calculating transaction costs.
