Total sanctions imposed on insurance distributors in the union, as reported by the European insurance authority. A further 3,865 sanctions are reported for 2018 to 2020 combined, which cannot be split by year and is therefore not plotted. Twenty-four member states imposed sanctions in 2024.

Directive (EU) 2016/97 requires at least fifteen hours of professional training a year for insurance distributors. Of every provision in the directive, that one draws the most sanctions in each year the authority has reported, including 4,828 breaches in 2021 alone.
