Moving message: Heineken Pension Fund moves to Amsterdam
1 July 2025Today, Tuesday July 1, the Heineken Pension Fund has moved from Zoeterwoude to Amsterdam. Our new workplace is in ASTAD3, on the sixth floor.
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.

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.
