(10) The summary of the prospectus is a key source of information for retail investors. It should be short, simple and easy for targeted investors to understand. It should focus on the key information that investors need in order to be able to make informed investment decisions. Its content should not be restricted to any predetermined number of words. The format and content of the summary should be determined in a way that ensures comparability with other investment products that are similar to the investment proposal described in the prospectus. Therefore, Member States should attach civil liability on the basis of the summary not only if it is misleading, inaccurate or inconsistent, when read together with the other parts of the prospectus, but also if it does not provide key information enabling investors to take informed investment decisions and to compare the securities with other investment products.
