Versicherungsvertriebsrichtlinie (Insurance Distribution Directive, IDD)

The Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD) is a European directive that comprises rules governing the distribution of insurance. The aim of the IDD is to ensure that everyone involved in the distribution of insurance follows the same rules. Diese Richtlinie stellt eine neue Phase in der Harmonisierung des europäischen Versicherungsmarktes dar.

Die IDD regelt die Vertriebsservices für Versicherungsprodukte. One of its main objectives is to provide a set of rules aimed at strengthening consumer protection. The IDD requires to abide by three over-arching principles when distributing insurance products:

• act honestly, fairly and professionally in a way that best serves your interests
• provide you with information that is accurate, clear and not misleading. This information is meant to enable you to take informed decisions
• take account of your individual situation, and in particular your demands and needs.
