What is a CMA Standardised Price List?

Under the CMA Funerals Market Investigation Order 2021, every funeral director in the UK is legally required to publish a Standardised Price List showing the cost of an attended funeral, a direct cremation, and a breakdown of the funeral director's professional fees, transport, care of the deceased, coffin, and third-party disbursement charges. Because the format is fixed by the CMA, like-for-like comparison is reliable for the first time.
