EIOPA reports on insurance intermediary markets

EIOPA has published its report on its evaluation of the structure of insurance intermediaries markets in Europe in accordance with IDD requirements. The report notes a very wide diversity of local distribution channels and differences between nationally adopted definitions. It also found divergence in registration and reporting requirements. Generally, the lack of homogeneity makes it hard to draw valuable conclusions, but EIOPA did note increases in use of passporting rights.
