EIOPA consults on the presentation format of the Insurance Product Information Document


The EIOPA published a Consultation Paper on draft Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) standardising the presentation format of the Insurance Product Information Document (IPID).

The IPID will be provided to the customer prior to the conclusion of a non-life insurance contract in accordance with the provisions of the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD).

The purpose of the IPID is to ensure that key information about non-life insurance products is presented to the customer in a standardised format they can use to understand the product offered, and compare between different products.

The key information to be included in the IPID is already determined by the IDD. The goal of this consultation is to collect public feedback about the presentation of the IPID, including on such features as its length, the use of icons and symbols, possible advantages of digital and paper formats, etc.

European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority’s(EIOPA) proposals for the IPID are based on two phases of consumer testing that were conducted among more than 3000 consumers in a representative sample of Member States.

The consultation will end on 24 October 2016.
