In July 2012 the European Commission requested the European Insurance and
Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) to provide technical advice on the
prudential regulations and consumer protection measures needed to create a
single market for personal pensions.
In order to deliver this technical advice EIOPA, as a first step, has today
published its Discussion paper on a possible EU-single market for personal
pension products.
The goal of the Discussion paper is to engage stakeholders at an early
stage in the project by gathering their views on a wide range of issues
relating to personal pensions.
The Discussion Paper focuses on three key aspects of personal pensions:
A possible definition of a personal pension;Potential cross-border
frameworks (passporting and the so-called second (or 28th) regime which
would create a uniform European system as an alternative to the different
national regimes); andConsumer protection, including information
disclosure and selling practices.
To access EIOPA's Discussion paper click here (Link:

If you wish to respond to the questions posed in the Discussion paper,
please use this comments template (Link:
https://eiopa.europa.eu/fileadmin/tx_dam/files/consultations/consultationpapers/single_personal_pension_products/EIOPA_Template-for-Comments-on-DPTFPP.doc
).
The period for providing comments will end on 16 August 2013.
Once stakeholders' comments have been analysed, EIOPA will prepare a
report, containing issues and options which will be made available to the
European Commission in early 2014. The Commission is then expected to
issue a detailed Call for Advice to EIOPA, with a response deadline set
for 2015.
