Go-ahead for sending out personalised NexT Pension overviews
A key development in the run-up to the NexT Pension scheme: the Board of Philips Pensioenfonds has given the go-ahead for sending personalised information packs. The first packs will go out on 12 November, explaining how the switch to our new pension scheme is expected to impact your pension.
On 2 July the Dutch central bank (DNB), as our supervisory authority, already approved the switch to the NexT Pension scheme on 1 January 2027. Now we have reached another key milestone: following a series of detailed checks and preparations, on 2 November the Board adopted a resolution allowing the personalised information packs to be sent.
A first look at your personal amounts
The information pack will bring the switch to the NexT Pension scheme that much closer to home. It compares your pension under the existing pension plan with your expected NexT Pension, to give you an idea of how you personally will be affected by the switch to the new pension scheme.
Although the pack will contain a great deal of information, you do not need to read it all at once. The most important details will be summarised in an accompanying letter and short-form overview to let you see at a glance what you need to know first. You can then study the detailed information at your convenience.
First information packs to go out on 12 November
We will send the information packs out in separate phases, beginning on 12 November, to make it easier to provide proper assistance if any members have questions. This means that someone else will perhaps receive their pack before you have yours; however, by the end of November all our members should have received their personalised information. If your pension post is sent in digital format, keep an eye on your emails: we will contact you when your information pack has been uploaded into MijnPPF.
Bear in mind that the amounts shown in your information pack are still provisional, based on your personal situation and our financial position at 30 June 2026. We will run the calculations again when the switch is completed, and later in 2027 you will receive a new personal overview showing amounts based on the finalised conversion.
When you receive your information pack: take a look at your overview
When you receive your information pack, open it and at the very least read the accompanying letter and short-form overview. Those contain the most important details of how the switch to the NexT Pension scheme will affect you. Would you like to know more, or do you have questions about the amounts and information in your package? When you receive your information pack, you can find answers to the most frequently asked questions on our website.
