Change in pension regulations

31 March 2023 | News

We changed the pension regulations in 2023, because the intended effective date of regulation that introduces a withdrawal of a lump sum is Januari 1, 2024 (in stead of 1 July 2023). Therefore it is not yet possible to withdrawal a lump sum in 2023. We have therefore removed this possibility from the pension regulations.

In the pension regulations, the withdrawal of the lump sum was part of the options of flexibilisation in Article 13 of the pension regulations, stating that this part will become applicable upon the effective date of the Lump sum, RVU and leave savings Act; intended for July 1, 2023. This section will be included again when this option can be offered. For now, this is January 1, 2024.
