A closer look at your own pension pot
Under the new scheme, you will have your own pension pot.
But what’s in it?
The value of your pension
At the time of the switch, we will calculate what your pension is worth. This amount will be added to your pension pot.
Return on investment
We will invest the money in your pension pot. If the results are good, the value of your pension pot will increase. If the results are poor, the value of your pension pot will decrease.
Your monthly pension
You will receive your monthly pension from your pension pot. When you pass away, the partner’s pension will also be paid from your pension pot.
Money from the solidarity reserve (if your pension would otherwise decrease)
After the switch, we will have a solidarity reserve. We will use this if, despite the other protective measures, your pension would still decrease. Money will then go from this reserve to your pension pot to supplement your pension.

Question for the consultant Can my pension pot run out of money? ‘No, your pension pot cannot run out of money. You will always receive a pension, no matter how old you become, even if you live to well over a hundred years. That’s the advantage of arranging pensions collectively.’ |
