Compliance reporting

PRIIPs / EPT

The PRIIPs (Packaged Retail and Insurance-based Investment Products) regulation, which has been in force throughout the EU since January 2018, aims to make "packaged" investment instruments and capital-forming insurance products easier to compare and understand for investors.

The European PRIIPs Template (EPT) is used by fund providers to provide information to insurance companies under the PRIIPs regulation. The Comfort European PRIIPs Template (CEPT) is used to submit additional data that may have to be provided due to bilateral agreements.

The regulations bring with them extensive challenges in terms of data management, classification, risk, performance and cost calculation, market data collection, report generation and report distribution.

what this means for your reporting

Fund providers

must be able to calculate and transmit their PRIIPs data according to EPT and CEPT standards. In this context, it is important that the end-to-end process does not drain internal resources.

Asset managers

are required to obtain, verify, evaluate and further process data standardised by EPT and CEPT. Here, too, the focus should be on finding an efficient, cost-reducing solution.
