Recital 17

(17) With regard to pre-contractual information, certain Union acts governing specific financial services contain rules adapted for those specific financial services designed to ensure that consumers are able to understand the essential characteristics of the proposed contract. For instance, Regulation (EU) 2019/1238 of the European Parliament and of the Council (8) and Directives 2014/92/EU (9), 2014/65/EU (10) and (EU) 2016/97 (11) of the European Parliament and of the Council provide for pre-contractual information in the basic specific Union act and also empower the Commission to adopt delegated or implementing acts. Only the pre-contractual information requirements laid down in such Union acts should apply to those specific consumer financial services, unless otherwise provided in those acts. This should also be the case where the Union act governing specific financial services provides different or minimal rules on pre-contractual information in comparison with the rules laid down by this Directive.
