Blog: Socially Responsible Investment by the Heineken Pension Fund
The Heineken Pension Fund (HPF) is a company pension fund. As a company pension fund, the HPF seeks to connect with HEINEKEN's sustainability agenda. That is why we primarily focus on three themes: 1. climate (CO2 reduction) 2. clean water and responsible water use and 3. human rights (particularly working conditions).
Pension and events in your life
Retirement seems far away for many people. However, retirement is closer than you think. Suppose you get a new job, start living together/marry, have a child, break up or unexpectedly have to deal with a death in your family. These life events can have direct consequences for your pension and also for your partner's income. Retirement is therefore important throughout your whole life.
Right to hear Association of the Pensioners and Former Participants
The draft bill about the future of pensions provides an Association of Pensioners and an Association of Former Participants a right to be heard regarding the transition plan to the new pension agreement. Social Partners will contact the Association of Pensioners at Heineken (VvGH) about this. The interests of the pensioners are also represented in the Board and the Accountability Council of the HPF.
Blog: How is my pension money invested?
HEINEKEN and you pay a premium for the accrual of your pension. But in addition, an important part of your pension is earned with the income from investments. Without investments, our pension would be much more expensive or much lower. But investments are not without risk either. Anyone who is going to invest should receive a warning : “you can lose (a part of) your investment”. The pension fund also runs investment risks. What about the investments risk? And how are these risks managed?
Blog: AOW (State Pension) and pension from your employer
The news is often about retirement. Then it usually goes about all old-age provisions as a whole, so in addition to the pension with an employer, also about the State Pension (in this blog we call this AOW). What exactly is the difference between the two?
Communication per e-mail for participants
The HPF will communicate with participants (employees of HEINEKEN) by e-mail and no longer by post. With this we are happy to meet the expressed wish of participants to receive communication digitally. This is also more sustainable. From now on you will receive communication from the pension fund digitally to your HEINEKEN e-mail address!
