Question

I have a question concerning reporting precision. When the metric is pure that is 2015/2450 article 2, point b) applies “data points with the data type ‘percentage’ shall be expressed as per unit with four decimals” then from what format should the 4 decimals be counted? For example for a calculation result 1/3=0,33333333333.. or 33,333333..%, which is correct precision to report it with four decimals 0,3333 or 0,333333?

Answer

EIOPA confirms that data points with the data type ‘percentage’ shall be expressed as per unit with four decimals e.g. 1/3=0,33333333333 shall be presented as 0,3333.
