It is important that there is also a benefit for your partner and children in the event of your death. A situation you’d rather not think about, but it’s very important to have something arranged.
In the new pension scheme, your partner will receive a benefit every month for as long as he or she lives. This is the same as now. As long as you accrue pension with us, there is a partner’s pension for your partner. This amounts to 35% of your salary. There is also a monthly benefit for your children if you die. As long as you accrue pension with us, your child will receive an orphan’s pension until he/she reaches the age of 25. The amount of this orphan’s pension is 20% of the salary. The salary for these pensions are capped (€137,800 in 2024). The new pension is higher than in the current pension scheme.
It does not matter how long you have been a member in the pension scheme. However, the schemes will stop if you no longer accrue pension with us.
When investing, we take environmental and social aspects and good corporate governance into account. We have laid down how we do this in our policy on socially responsible investment (SRI policy). In our Sustainability Report 2023 you can read how this took place in 2023. In the first part, we tell you what our policy looked like in 2023. In part 2 we report on the implementation and results of our SRI policy in the past year.
The first half of 2024 is over and we would like to look back on the year 2023 with you. We have laid down the most important facts and figures in the Annual Overview 2023. Worth checking out!
