Lipper-Monday Morning Memo: A call for more transparency in the European mutual funds industry
October 2, 2017--Even though investors and regulators want to know as many details as possible about the holdings of the mutual funds they own, the fund industry-especially in Europe-tries to hold back as much information as possible.

Investors want to be able to estimate the risk/return profile of the holdings in their portfolios. I do not say this very often, but when it comes to regulatory policies, the interest by regulators in the full holding-as expressed by the launch of the SOLVENCY II regulation-is understandable.
