Question

Does the KID need to be published on the public section of a website?

Answer

Yes, in order to comply with the obligation laid down in Article 5(1) of the PRIIPs Regulation, a PRIIP manufacturer must publish a KID on the public section of its website. As reasoned in Recital 12 of the PRIIPs Regulation, the publication ensures the widespread dissemination and availability of KIDs.
