Recital 2

(2)In light of the requirements of Directive (EU) 2016/97, product oversight and governance measures should be chosen and applied in a proportionate and appropriate manner, depending on the complexity of the product and the degree to which publicly available information can be obtained, taking into account the nature of the insurance product and the risk of consumer detriment related to it, the characteristics of the target market and the nature, scale and complexity of the relevant business of the manufacturer or distributor. Proportionality means that those measures should be relatively simple for straightforward and non-complex products that are compatible with the needs and characteristics of the mass retail market, including current non-life insurance products with a limited, easily understandable scope. On the other hand, in the case of more complex products with a higher risk of consumer detriment, including insurance-based investment products not covered by Article 30(3) of Directive (EU) 2016/97, more exacting measures should be required.
