Abstract
The present work proposes a methodology for the representation of performance scenario in Packaged Retail and Insurance-based Investment Products (PRIIPS), by the means of a no-arbitrage probability table easy to understand for the retail investor. A statistical reconstruction via the method of moments allows to capture the main properties of the PRIIP market implied distribution by identifying the minimum number of descriptive moments needed. A reasonable quantile partition that is effective for representing to the retail investor the complex distributions of structured products characterized by non-linear pay-offs is then proposed.
