Reaction to the development of the stock markets

The Heineken Pension Fund is working together with HEINEKEN and the employees’ organizations in a project to work out how we can and want to transfer to the new pension system.
The parties are currently studying the preliminary preferential scheme and are investigating the impact of policy variants and the consequences of the current pensions transfer into the new scheme. This is the in-depth phase of the project.
We would like to keep you informed about developments through our webpage.

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.
