CSSF online assessment concerning PRIIPs

1. July 2019 | Financial supervision

On 1 July 2019, the CSSF issued a press release concerning PRIIPs. The regulator requires all SIFs, Part II UCIs and SICARs to complete an online assessment available on the eDesk portal as specified in Circular 19/721 (Dematerialisation of requests to the CSSF).

The CSSF explains that, as securities or partnership interests issued by Luxembourg regulated investment funds are likely to qualify as PRIIPs, the regulator would like to obtain an overview of the impact of the PRIIPs Regulation on Luxembourg-regulated investment funds. The Luxembourg regulator requires completion of the online assessment by 31 October 2019.
