November 2, 3 and 4 are the 3 Days of Pension. The 3 Days of Pension is an initiative from the Money Wise Platform to promote responsible financial behavior in the Netherlands and to promote financial resilience during retirement. The 3 Days of Pension is for all Dutch citizens. During the 3 Days of Pension, which takes place every year, pension providers, employers and advisers, among others, communicate about pensions. The Heineken Pension Fund is also participating in the 3 Days of Pension. During these three days we will share an animation with you every day.
The animation of day 3, also the last day, is about the influence of both private and work events on your pension. Watch the animation video about these events here (unfortunately only available in Dutch).
In 2024, we will have achieved a 12.6% return by investing the pension assets. With this result, we are in the top three of the more than 170 pension funds in the Netherlands that were surveyed by consultants from OverRendement and Bell.
We are expected to implement the new pension scheme from January 1, 2026. We are preparing for this, so that this transition is done carefully. For example, in 2024 we switched to a new pension administration system. In this administration system, we can administer our current and future pension scheme. In short: with this administration system we are ready for the future.
Your pension scheme will change from January 1, 2026. In the coming months, we will explain the new pension scheme to you in small pieces. This time: the change in the way we build up pension.
