The employer nominated Eveline Graus and Marloes van der Veer. The board agreed to the nomination. Huub Maas and Gert Bolderman have been nominated by the Association of Pensioners, the ‘Vereniging van Pensioengerechtigden’.

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.

In short: with this administration system we are ready for the future.
