Today, Tuesday July 1, the Heineken Pension Fund has moved from Zoeterwoude to Amsterdam. Our new workplace is in ASTAD3, on the sixth floor.

The Accountability Council (AC) at the Heineken Pension Fund consists of representatives of employees, employers and pensioners. Currently there is a vacancy in the AC for a member on behalf of the employees. The vacancy arose because the AC member is nominated as a member of the board of the Heineken Pension Fund. The documentation is in Dutch. Therefore it is important that Dutch can be read/understood.

The import tariffs announced by the United States caused declines on the stock markets. Many reports about this appeared in the news last week. We can imagine this raises questions.

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.

You can find the premium and allowance letter in MyPension (log in with DigiD). In the video, we tell you why you should read this letter and show you where to find it.

Today, January 28th, is Data Privacy Day: The day to think about your online security. As a pension fund, we also process personal data and we think it is important to handle it properly.

If you move within the Netherlands, we receive information about the change of your address through the Personal Records Database (BPD). It is not necessary to inform us about a move within the Netherlands. Please do contact us if you are moving to an address outside the Netherlands. We don’t receive this information.

Due to the introduction of the Future Pensions Act (Wtp), HEINEKEN’s pension scheme must be adjusted. The adjustment of the pension scheme has been agreed upon by HEINEKEN, the trade unions and the works councils of HEINEKEN and laid down in the Transition Plan.
