SOLUTIONS INSTI – Research & Insights 2

Let the power of expertise and advanced technology relieve your regulation headaches

Document production often causes significant stress for investment managers across jurisdictions. Complex rules, strict deadlines, increasing volumes and multiple language requirements make timely and compliant delivery challenging. 

In 2023, an average asset manager with 100 share classes sold across five European jurisdictions would have needed to submit around 3,000 mandatory regulatory reports. Key reports such as PRIIPs KIDs, UCITS KIIDs or SFDR involve complex calculations and up to 26 local language versions across Europe. Misunderstanding these complexities can put your investment business at risk. 

Our centralised document production module simplifies a traditionally complex process. Generating precise calculations at scale, we guarantee accurate and timely delivery. As a result, investment managers are free to focus on growing their business.

PRIIPs KIDs and UCITS KIIDs 

Stay compliant with pain-free document production 

Reliable source of accurate and consistent fund data and a scalable and efficient process are essential to regulatory document production such as UCITS KIIDs and PRIIPs KIDs. 

Without appropriate expertise, validation procedures and systems facilitating automation, it wouldn't be possible to collate all the varying data and information into a document. Equally, it wouldn't be possible to subsequently manage, process and distribute large quantities of fund documents, in multiple languages and in compliance with jurisdictional requirements, to several recipients. 

Our leading regulatory document production service gives you the flexibility to scale and enhance your operational efficiencies while meeting regulatory obligations in different markets and languages. We offer a flexible delivery model with the added option to completely outsource your KID/KIID production to FE fundinfo, while retaining control and compliance sign-off. 

  • Data validation

    Our dedicated data team helps you produce a single source of clean data, before each file is ingested into our system for further validation to ensure complete accuracy. We support the openfunds standard but also accept data from investment managers in other forms and sources. 

  • Transaction cost calculations

    Our highly qualified transaction cost team validates transaction cost data, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements. Our calculations comply with PRIIPs level 2 regulations and the ESMA Q&A, updated regularly to reflect regulatory changes. 

  • Automated SRI monitoring and alerting

    We continuously monitor all SRI 1-7 risk and reward category calculations to ensure changes in SRI classification are captured and highlighted before document production. You are immediately alerted when fund risk changes and can review documents, facilitating timely corrective action to avoid investor confusion or regulatory breaches. 

  • KID and KIID translations

    We work with experienced translation providers and coordinate the translation of KIIDs and KIDs into 26 languages. Our system manages these translations in our workflows and ensures document accuracy before publication. 

  • Document dissemination

    We deliver your documents to major data providers including Bloomberg, Morningstar, Refinitiv and FE fundinfo, as well as your internal platforms, distributors and regulators. Our process ensures timely dissemination across all required channels. 

  • 10-year historical trail and archive

    We maintain a comprehensive archive of all versions of your documents over a 10-year period in line with regulatory requirements, accessible at any time. 

SFDR reporting 

Comply with the UK's climate-related disclosure requirements 

Regulatory pressure is mounting — from detailed ESG disclosures under Level 2 RTS to growing scrutiny on data consistency, auditability and cross-platform alignment. 

At the same time, operational complexity is rising. Disclosures must be prepared across multiple regimes, validated for accuracy and delivered in formats designed for both investors and regulators. 

One platform, any data – future-proof reporting 

Our solution is fully data-agnostic, integrating with your ESG sources to deliver compliant disclosures quickly and at scale. With automated workflows, built-in validations and ongoing updates, we reduce manual effort and help you adapt confidently to evolving SFDR and EU Taxonomy requirements. 

SFDR and EU Taxonomy reports we produce 

  • Pre-contractual disclosures (product-level templates) 
  • Periodic disclosures (Annex V templates) 
  • Entity-level website disclosures 
  • Entity-level periodic disclosures 
  • Taxonomy alignment reports 
  • Principal Adverse Impacts (PAI) statements 
  • Do No Significant Harm (DNSH) assessments 
  • Future-proof approach

    Regulation changes frequently — your reporting platform shouldn't need to. Our solution adapts to evolving SFDR, Taxonomy and other ESG disclosure requirements without disrupting your operations.

  • Data-agnostic integration

    We work with any ESG data source you already use — MSCI, ISS ESG, Sustainalytics or your own proprietary models. Switch or blend sources as needed without rebuilding your reporting process. 

  • Quality assurance built in

    Automated validation rules flag inconsistencies before documents are finalised, reducing errors and the need for costly corrections. 

  • Simplified collaboration

    Centralised workflows make it easy for legal, compliance and investment teams to review and approve disclosures before publication. 

  • Market-ready formats

    Reports are generated in investor-facing and regulator-ready formats, ready for dissemination or filing without additional manual formatting. 

TCFD reporting 

Comply with the UK's climate-related disclosure requirements 

The UK's climate-related disclosure requirements extend to authorised investment managers with £50 billion+ in assets under management, FCA-authorised firms with £5 billion+ AUM and asset owners with £25 billion+ assets. 

Complying with TCFD recommendations requires substantial data collection, analysis and report preparation — activities that demand both time and expertise. Many investment managers face challenges in sourcing reliable climate data, especially for Scope 3 emissions, and interpreting complex metrics such as carbon intensity and warming potential. 

Comprehensive TCFD support 

Our TCFD reporting solution addresses these operational complexities by providing end-to-end support — from data sourcing and validation through to report production and dissemination. 

We coordinate with your selected ESG data providers to collate the required climate metrics, then apply our validation and quality assurance processes. Our team then produces compliant TCFD reports that meet regulatory standards and can be published on your website or filed with regulators as required. 

  • Data coordination

    We liaise with your ESG data providers (such as MSCI, ISS ESG or others) to source climate-related metrics required for TCFD reporting. This includes carbon emissions, carbon intensity, climate value-at-risk and implied temperature rise. 

  • Report production

    Our team produces comprehensive TCFD reports that address the four core pillars — governance, strategy, risk management and metrics/targets. Reports are prepared in formats ready for publication or regulatory filing. 

  • Ongoing regulatory monitoring

    TCFD requirements continue to evolve, particularly with the transition to ISSB standards. We monitor regulatory developments and update our processes accordingly, ensuring your reports remain compliant. 

  • Quality assurance

    All data undergoes validation before inclusion in reports. We flag inconsistencies or gaps and work with you to resolve them, ensuring accuracy and completeness. 

  • Flexible delivery

    Reports can be delivered in multiple formats for different audiences — investor communications, regulatory filings or website publication. We coordinate dissemination to your required channels. 

AIFMD Annex IV reporting

Streamlined reporting for alternative investment managers

AIFMD Annex IV reporting requires alternative investment fund managers to submit detailed quarterly reports to national competent authorities across the EU and UK. These reports cover fund structure, leverage, liquidity and risk — all of which must be delivered accurately and on time. 

Preparing Annex IV reports manually is resource-intensive and prone to error. Data must be collected from multiple sources, validated against more than 1,000 regulatory requirements, enriched where necessary and formatted into regulator-ready XML and PDF outputs. 

Service models 

  • Self-service – Bulk import AIF/AIFM data, validate with 1,000+ automated checks, generate regulator-ready XML and PDF reports and file directly to NCAs. Save up to 50% of time compared to manual processes.

  • 10-year document archive

    All submitted reports are stored securely for 10 years, ensuring you can retrieve historical submissions at any time for audit or reference purposes. 

Regulatory data template production

One of many challenges of fund data management lies in fragmentation of the ecosystem — there are several parties and little consistency in how they share fund data between them. 

Furthermore, the ever-evolving regulatory landscape demands the distribution of more data points than ever before, requiring constant and frequent transmission to market players, such as distributors and regulators. 

Our regulatory data template production capability minimises the burden of changing regulation for our clients whilst ensuring their fund data is ready to be distributed accurately and consistently to all relevant parties. 

  • Data management

    At FE fundinfo, data is at the heart of everything we do. Our ISO-accredited data processing teams check and validate requisite data as part of the collection process to ensure all static, dynamic and regulatory fund data is complete and accurate. 

  • Digitalisation and automation

    Adopting FE fundinfo's data and technology-led automated solution for regulatory and marketing document production minimises manual handling of data and the associated risks of data silos and complex vendor management. 

  • Transparency and analytics

    We provide complete transparency over your fund data and document production through real-time dashboards and reporting, giving you full visibility and control. 

  • Regulatory expertise

    FE fundinfo's team of regulatory experts continually scan for regulatory change and iterate the service and your data sets accordingly, ensuring you remain compliant. 

  • Scalable function

    Our enterprise-scale infrastructure processes up to 150,000+ documents per hour, ensuring we can handle high volumes efficiently while maintaining accuracy. 

Calculations

Calculations are a crucial albeit challenging element of compliant regulatory submissions. Their provision is reliant not just on relevant expertise and understanding of regulation but access to adequate technology. 

Some calculations, such as those related to transaction costs, have a particularly poor reputation on account of their complexity, volumes and reliance on very accurate data. 

We provide you with a holistic solution — alongside the broad range of regulatory documents and reports, we provide all the expected calculations. This helps to reduce costs and optimise the process, particularly as some calculations overlap between the different reports required. 

Additionally, we continuously scan the regulatory horizon for changes and are transparent about how the calculations are performed, helping you reduce risks of errors. 

  • Cost reduction

    Consolidating your calculation requirements with your document production eliminates duplicate work and reduces the need for multiple vendors. 

  • Mitigated risks

    Our validation processes and regulatory monitoring reduce the risk of calculation errors that could lead to regulatory breaches. 

  • Holistic solution

    All your calculation needs are met within a single platform, eliminating the need to coordinate between multiple systems and vendors. 

  • Transparency

    We provide full documentation of calculation methodologies, ensuring you understand how figures are derived and can evidence your approach to regulators.
