We often hear this comment, particularly from relatively young members who are still building up a pension. I can certainly imagine that the losses that pension funds are currently suffering as a result of the corona crisis are reinforcing this belief. If you share this view, however, I have some good news, despite the difficult times: it is absolutely wrong. Read on to find out why that is.

We regularly tune in to hear what our members have to say. This is important: Philips Pensioenfonds is weighing one interest against another all the time, and making choices that impact our members’ pensions. It is therefore our responsibility, we feel, to obtain your input on matters that affect your pension and the pension fund. We do this not only by informing you, but also by asking for your opinion and seeking out a dialogue with you.

While it is probably a subject that you would rather not think about, do you ever consider what will happen if you die? Do you know what the financial situation will be for your partner and children? The Pensioen3daagse, an annual 3-day event that is all about pensions and that starts today, will draw the nation’s attention to this issue. Unfortunately, almost everyone has all heard some tale or another where the arrangements were not as complete as expected. Our flex pension plan includes arrangements for your partner. However, this requires action on your part too!
