of 13 July 2022

supplementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1503 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to regulatory technical standards for the key investment information sheet

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2020/1503 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 October 2020 on European crowdfunding service providers for business, and amending Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 and Directive (EU) 2019/1937 (1), and in particular Article 23(16), fourth subparagraph, thereof,
Whereas:
(1) To ensure the comparability among key investment information sheets of different crowdfunding offers and facilitate the drafting of key investment information sheets by project owners, a common model for the presentation of the information concerned should be set out. That model should ensure that project owners follow a similar presentation pattern in form and substance, whilst allowing for the required flexibility that considers the specificities of each crowdfunding offer, considering their nature, scale and complexity.
(2) To ensure the interoperability of data and to enable cross-referencing information included in the key investment information sheet with other information, in particular the information reported in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2120 (2), each key investment information sheet should contain a unique identifier of the crowdfunding offer to which it relates.
(3) To give project owners the possibility to provide prospective investors further relevant information, it should be possible to include hyperlinks, which should follow common model. However, those hyperlinks should not impair the comprehensiveness of the key investment information sheet as a stand-alone document. Therefore, the use of hyperlinks should not exempt project owners from the obligation to include the relevant information in the key investment information sheet in a clear and comprehensive manner.
(4) In order to enable prospective investors to make informed investment decisions, the key investment information sheet should contain a specific and non-generic description of all relevant risks related to the crowdfunding project, the crowdfunding offer and the project owner.
(5) To allow the comparability and clarity of financial information contained in the key investment information sheet and thus enhance transparency for prospective investors, financial statements and information should be presented in accordance with commonly recognised standards and principles.
(6) To allow for transparent information on the commissions, fees and other transaction costs incurred by the investor throughout the life of the crowdfunding project, the key investment information sheet should present a breakdown of direct and indirect costs, which specifies entry costs, exit costs, costs incurred during the project and incidental costs.
(7) This Regulation is based on the draft regulatory technical standards submitted to the Commission by the European Securities and Markets Authority.
(8) European Securities and Markets Authority has conducted open public consultations on the draft regulatory technical standards on which this Regulation is based, analysed the potential related costs and benefits and requested the advice of the Securities and Markets Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3).
(9) The European Data Protection Supervisor was consulted in accordance with Article 42(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) and delivered an opinion on 1 June 2022,
