The core aim of prudential supervision is to safeguard the rights of members and beneficiaries while fostering the stability and soundness of Institutions for Occupational Retirement Provision (IORPs). To achieve this, Member States are mandated to equip competent authorities with essential resources, relevant expertise, and the necessary capacity to fulfil these supervisory objectives effectively.

Compliance frameworks must prioritise this protective mandate, ensuring that all regulatory measures align with the overarching goal of maintaining robust financial systems and protecting stakeholders' interests. This alignment is crucial for establishing trust and safeguarding the integrity of the retirement provision landscape.
