EU/EEA institutions for occupational retirement provision (IORPs)
If an institution for occupational retirement provision (IORP) of another Member State or EEA signatory state has been registered in a national register, or authorised, by the competent authority of the home Member State, the authorisation is valid in all Member States or EEA signatory states.
IROPs proposing to carry out cross-border activity in Germany must undergo a notification procedure. They must notify their intention to carry out cross-border activity to the competent authority of the home Member State. Once the competent authority has completed its review, it submits the relevant documents to BaFin. If there are no grounds preventing the IORPs from taking up cross-border activity, the IORPs may conduct business in Germany.
