PRIIP

Short for packaged retail and insurance-based investment product: broadly, an investment whose payout moves with something outside it, such as market rates. One sold to savers needs a key information document. The Notes’ calls leave it unclear whether they are one, so they are not sold to savers.

How it comes up, in Chapter 8
PRIIP stands for packaged retail and insurance-based investment product. Broadly, it is an investment whose payout moves with something outside it, such as market rates. The PRIIPs Regulation requires a key information document for any PRIIP sold to retail investors in the European Economic Area. That is a short paper in a fixed form, written so that a saver can compare products.
