The six TCF outcomes

TCF Outcome Number

TCF Outcome

1 Consumers can be confident that they are dealing with firms where the fair treatment of customers is central to the corporate culture

2 Products and services marketed and sold in the retail market are designed to meet the needs of identified consumer groups and are targeted accordingly

3 Consumers are provided with clear information and are kept appropriately informed before, during and after the point of sale

4 Where consumers receive advice, the advice is suitable and takes account of their circumstances

5 Consumers are provided with products that perform* as firms have led them to expect, and the associated service is of an acceptable standard and as they have been led to expect

6 Consumers do not face unreasonable post-sale barriers imposed by firms to change product, switch provider, submit a claim or make a complaint

* The term perform does not solely relate to product performance it also encompasses the operation of the product – so could read ‘consumers are provided with products that operate as firms have led them to expect, and the associated service is of an acceptable standard and as they have been led to expect

Definitions

Product manufacturer – those firms manufacturing investment products (financial instruments and structured deposits) –i.e. those firms that create, develop, issue and/or design investment products (ESMA Final Report December 2014

“We use ‘provider’ to include persons who offer services such as portfolio management (through distributors or otherwise) as well as those who develop, manage or package products such as life insurance, general insurance or investment products or who develop or enter into home finance transactions (i.e. mortgages, home reversion plans and home purchase plans).” (FCA RPPD 1.12)

Recognised that there may be more than one manufacturer in the distribution chain.

Product distributor – investment firms that decide the range of products (financial instruments and structured deposits) issued by itself of other investment firms and services they intend to offer to clients. MiFID II also applies to distributors selling investment products issued by entities that do not fall under the scope of MiFID (ESMA Final Report December 2014)

“We use ‘distributor’ to mean those persons who then make up the rest of the supply chain taking the product or service to the customer. This could include, for example, financial advisers, third party administrators, appointed representatives, banks, building societies, and those who sell insurance as a secondary part of their business.” (FCA RPPD 1.13)

Recognised there may be more than one distributor in the distribution chain.

Product approval procedures;

Identification of target market and generation of product ideas;

Design and development of product features;

Stress-testing and modelling;

Selection and monitoring of distribution channels;

Information to distributors;

Information to consumers; and

“Member States shall ensure that the management body of an investment firm defines, oversees and is accountable for the implementation of the governance arrangements that ensure effective and prudent management of the investment firm including segregation of duties in the investment firm and the prevention of conflicts of interest, and in a manner that promotes the integrity of the market and the interests of clients” (Art 9 (3))

“A firm shall ensure that the management body has effective control over the firm’s product governance process”

“Where investment firms collaborate, including with an investment firm in a non-EEA Member State or a non-MiFID firm, to create, develop, issue and/or design a product, they shall outline their mutual responsibilities in a written agreement.”

“Investment firms shall ensure that the management body has effective control over the firm’s product governance process to determine the range of investment products that will be distributed and the services provided to the respective target markets.”

Product Governance – role of Compliance and second line of defence

New requirements for Compliance proposed by ESMA for both product manufacturers and product distributors:

Information about the products a firm manufactures and its distribution strategy shall be systematically included in compliance reports to the management body and made available to National Competent Authorities on request

Requirements for investment firms’ compliance functions to oversee the development and periodic review of product governance arrangements in order to detect any risk of failure by manufacturers to comply with their obligations

Requirements for investment firms’ compliance functions to oversee the development and periodic review of product governance arrangements in order to detect any risk of failure by distributors to comply with their obligations

Information about the products a firm distributes and the services provided shall be systematically included in compliance reports to the management body and made available to National Competent Authorities on request

Many firms already include Compliance and Risk in product approval forums as

good practice

“The product approval process shall specify an identified target market of end clients within the relevant category of clients for each financial instrument and shall ensure that all relevant risks to such an identified target market are assessed and that the intended distribution strategy is consistent with the identified target market” (Art 16 (3))

“When manufacturing products, the firm shall identify the potential target market for each product and be able to specify thetype(s) of client for whose needs, characteristics and objectives the product is compatible. As part of this process, the firm shall identify any groups of investors for whose needs, characteristics and objectives the product is not compatible. Where investment firms work together to manufacture a product, only one target market assessment is required”

“The target market must be identified at a sufficiently granular level to avoid the inclusion of any groups of investors for whose needs, characteristics and objectives the product is not compatible. Manufacturers designing products that are distributed through other investment firms have to ascertain the needs and characteristics of clients for whom the product iscompatible based on their theoretical knowledge and past experience of the product, the financial markets and the needs, characteristics and objectives of potential investors”

FCA expectations

“When undertaking product design we would typically expect a firm to identify a target market. However, the way this should be done, and the level of detail that should be gone into, will depend on the nature of the product and its general risk profile. The onus is on the firm (not us) to determine the appropriate way to identify the target market. The provider may be able to meet this standard by identifying for whom the product is not suitable. It may also, where appropriate, be able to identify a range of alternative target markets, an extremely broad target market, or a hypothetical market. There may be circumstances in which a firm could identify the whole market as its target market, although firms should be wary of using this as an alternative to giving due consideration to the issue of the target market.”

FCA Roles and Responsibilities of Product Providers and Distributors

“Firms should recognise that the identification of a target market or audience is crucial, not only for generating ideas for products, but for avoiding failures later in the value chain, whether or not an intermediated model is used – consideration of the target market should permeate all aspects of the product development and distribution throughout the product’s lifecycle”

Current challenges and pitfalls in identifying target market

Many would like to undertake customer research but find it

provides little benefit “high yield, low risk please”

Focus on competitor analysis and potential profit “me too” pre launch analysis

Viewing the distributor as the client not the end-investor

Many retail customers don’t know what it is that they want or what would fulfil their needs

Relying on feedback from intermediaries to generate ideas based on which products are most likely to sell

Build a product profile:

Extent to which it is considered likely customers will need advice in order to invest in a product, for example, if risk profiling tools are required or if the investment has a particularly complex strategy or uses complex investment techniques;

Likely investor usage (core, component etc); Risk characteristics; Likely time horizon; Investment minimums and pricing; Likely investor sophistication and

understanding; Levels of risk or volatility; Liquidity; Regulatory regime; Specific institutional needs the product is

designed to address; Dealing frequency; Onshore/offshore considerations; Segregated mandates and bespoke strategies

Build an investor profile:

Investment objective (e.g. income, growth, income & growth, capital preservation);

Risk (e.g. low, medium, high – taking into account for example, SSRI)

Investment time horizon; Usage; Product complexity; Plain English summary

Typically, firms approach the identification of a target market through building either a product profile of an investor profile:

Can we use target market definitions to Build an end investor profile?

Target Market

Qualified investor

Wealth Manager/ Private Bank

Professional investor

- Only compatible with a target market that meets the MiFID professional investor criteria

- Distinction between Per se and Elective?

- Compatible with a target market that meets FCA Qualified investor criteria e.g. Professional Investors, Eligible Counterparties (MiFID definition) Certified High Net Worth, Certified Sophisticated investors etc

- Distinction between ECPs, Elective Professionals, Certified High Net Worth etc?

- Compatible with target market that receives advice and has investible assets of greater than £x?

- Part of wider portfolio?- Sophisticated/ more savvy investors than

typical mass market retail? - HNW, UHNW, MA

Financial Planner

Non advised / XO

- Typically less wealthy clients that Wealth Manager/Private Bank

- Client base typically investible assets of £xk - £xk

- Investors with less than £xk to invest- Mass market retail?- Appropriateness test may help with

‘complex’ products

Stress testing, scenario analysis and crucial events

Why do it?

Ensure all relevant risks are identified and assessed both on an initial and on-going basis

Establish how the product will perform under a variety of conditions, including possible failures of design features

Understand the inter-actions of different product characteristics and assumptions built into the product design process

Model potential product outcomes from an investor/customer perspective

Can help to inform approach to use of risk warnings

Make decisions that better integrate risk management

Improve contingency planning and develop appropriate mitigating actions before events crystallise

Can help prevent liquidity and/or capacity constraints

Inform stress testing framework

Scenario analysis and identification of crucial events required under MiFID II

Scenarios that could lead to poor investor outcomes

Mitigating actions or triggers for future action

“An investment firm which manufactures financial instruments for sale to clients shall maintain, operate and review a process for the approval of each financial instrument and significant adaptations of existing financial instruments before it is marketed or distributed to clients” (Art 16 (3))

“We expect firms to have transparent and auditable product approval frameworks which:

Have clear roles and responsibilities for those operating them; Incorporate effective scrutiny and challenge; Embed the delivery of fair outcomes for customers; Manage any conflicts between the firm and the customer properly; Have clear criteria for when an abridged or ‘light’ process may be used and for what constitutes a ‘new’ product; Take account of changes in the external environment; and Have a review mechanism to prevent product ‘creep’.”

“Investment firms shall consider whether the product meets the identified needs, characteristics and objectives of the target market, checking for example that:

Product design is driven by features that benefit the client and not by a business model that is dependent on poor client outcomes”

(ESMA Final Report Dec 2014)

“Investment firms shall consider the charging structure proposed for the product, checking for example that (the following list is not exhaustive):

i. Product costs and other charges are compatible with the needs, objectives and characteristics of the target market;ii. Charges do not undermine the return expectations of the product. For example, it is unlikely to be appropriate for a tax

advantaged financial product to have costs or charges that equal, or exceed, the expected tax benefit for investors. It is important, during the product design process, that the firm ensures that the fees do not remove almost all of the tax advantages; and

iii. The charging structure of the product is appropriately transparent for the target market (e.g. it shall not be too complex to understand or disguise charges).”

Pricing – Business Model Analysis

“All firms need to have adequate controls around the development and marketing of their products. However, where a firm’s business model relies significantly on a particular product or class of product, the firm’s controls over the risks associated with the development and marketing of those products should be particularly robust in order to reflect that reliance.

While we recognise that they must operate on a commercially sound basis, firms should strike a balance with pricing and market pressures to ensure that fair customer outcomes are delivered.”

FSA Retail Product Development and Governance – Structured Product Review

“Firms must put consumers at the heart of their business model. That means it is important to make comparing costs as easy as possible. As part of the overall relationship between firms and consumers, firms need to manage the costs with as much tenacity as they produce returns, and make the costs they charge clear.”

“Firms have a duty to act in the best interest of investors. For this matter, this means structuring and disclosing charges so that they are clear to investors, particularly retail investors.”

“Member States shall require that, when providing investment services, or where appropriate, ancillary services to clients, an investment firm act honestly, fairly and professionally in accordance with the best interests of its clients and comply, in particular with the principles set out in this Article and in Article 25”(Article 24 (1))

“All information, including marketing materials addressed by the investment firm to clients or potential clients shall be clear, fair and not misleading. Marketing communications shall be clearly identifiable as such.” (Article 24 (3))

“An investment firm shall understand the financial instruments they offer or recommend, assess the compatibility of the financial instruments with the needs of the clients to whom it provides investment services, also taking account of the identified target market or end clients as referred to in Article 16(3), and ensure that financial instruments are offered orrecommended only when this is in the interest of the client”. (Article 24 (2))

“Appropriate information shall be provided in good time to clients or potential clients with regard to the investment firm andits services, the financial instruments and proposed investment strategies, execution venues and all costs and related charges.” (Article 24 (4))

“The information referred to in paragraphs 4 and 9 shall be provided in a comprehensible form in such a manner that clients or potential clients are reasonably able to understand the nature and risks of the investment service and of the specific type of financial instrument that is being offered and, consequently, to take investment decisions on an informed basis. Member States may allow that information to be provided in a standardised format” (Article 24 (5))

Say what?

Leverage Risk:

“The use of derivatives to increase the exposure of the Fund to the market through either long or short positions will make the value of the Fund’s investments more volatile than those of an un-leveraged fund”

Emerging markets & frontier risk:

“Emerging markets, and especially frontier markets, generally carry greater political, legal counterparty and operational risk”

“The use of FDI involves additional risks: (i) FDI may be highly sensitive to price movements of the asset on which they are based; (ii) a counterparty to a non-exchange traded FDI may not meet its payment obligations in the event of default; (iii) the use of FDI may result in increased leverage. These risks may lead to significant losses”

Writing (selling) call options:

“In exchange for up-front cash at the time of selling the call option, the Portfolio may be limited to profit from an increase in the market value of stocks. In a rising market, the Portfolio could significantly underperform the market, and the Portfolio’s options strategies may not fully protect it against declines in the value of the market”

Derivatives risk:

“A derivative may not perform as expected, and may create losses greater than the cost of the derivative”

Real estate risk:

“The Portfolio primarily invests in a very specific sector of the economy which can be particularly exposed to a downturn in macro economic conditions or particular conditions affecting the property market”

Use of mathematical formulae:

“The Investment Adviser expects to use mathematical formulae to implement the Strategy. The use of such formulae may be subject to a number of limitations and may result in the Strategy performing differently than expected as a result of the design of the formulae, inputs into the formulae or other factors”
