Why covering this topic?
• Bring empirical evidence on why a single market for personal pensions does not yet exist and what could be the best actions taken at EU level that could promote it, from the perspective of the PPP providers operating in the EU.
• The answers to these questions could help the European Commission and EIOPA’s current work in this area.

Research Question
This study aims at shedding light on three questions:
(i) What are the barriers for the cross border activity of
personal pension providers within the EU ?
(ii) What are the consequences of these barriers for those
personal pension providers which (intend to) sell personal
pension products cross borders within the EU ?
(iii) What are the possible actions that could be taken at
EU level in order to facilitate the cross border activity of
personal pension providers ?

Implications of the findings
The findings of the survey
• support the relevance of the initiative taken by the European Commission in the creation of an internal market for personal pensions.
• show that the currently fragmented market in which personal pension providers are operating would benefit from future EU action that could facilitate their cross border activity in the EU.
• help the European Commission in its assessment of the most adequate measures to be considered in a future legislative initiative in this area.
Limitations
• all generic conclusions from the results of the survey should be taken as tentative
Further research needed
• (i) appropriate features of an EU personal pension product that could help overcome the current inefficiencies of a fragmented personal pension market.
• (ii) consumers’ concerns and desires should be understood to create an EU single market that could serve them best.
