(2a) The purpose of this Regulation is to cover packaged products that are manufactured by the financial services industry in order to provide additional investment opportunities to retail investors. Non-equity securities issued by non-financial issuers contribute to the financing of corporate issuers and, where they are offered to retail investors, will be subject to the obligation to draw up a prospectus, which includes a summary, thus providing retail investors with adequate pre-contractual information. These securities should be excluded from the scope of this Regulation. The current requirement to produce, review and update a key information document for such non-equity securities, until their maturity, encourages issuers to restrict them to professional investors only, thus depriving retail investors of investment options. Addressing non-equity securities issued by non-financial issuers will therefore remove this incentive and might encourage retail investors’ participation in Union capital markets, while offering those retail investors with more opportunities to diversify their financial portfolios.
