Interest on 2024 retirement assets
For 2024, insureds will earn 3.0 % interest on their retirement assets overall. This is half a percentage point more than the Foundation’s interest model. The interest earned on pension assets should be viewed over the medium to long term. The average rate of interest from 2019 to 2024 amounted to 3.78 %. By pursuing a strong financial basis for the Foundation, the Board of Trustees is also laying the groundwork for continued attractive interest rates, so that insureds can derive the greatest possible benefit from interest and compound interest over the entire duration that their savings are invested and even in more volatile times.

Individual order of beneficiaries for lump-sum death benefits | Options for retirement and partner pensions 
Sound financial protection is essential for a secure and fulfilling life. People’s needs vary, depending on the individual and their circumstances. The Board of Trustees has therefore decided to introduce new options so that insureds can tailor their pension fund benefits to their own particular requirements more flexibly. With the individual order of beneficiaries, insureds can decide themselves which people are entitled to which amount of the insured lump-sum death benefits. In addition, the new options mean insureds can adapt the amount of their retirement and partner pension in line with their individual circumstances.

Fairness between generations 
Thanks to the switch from full insurance to a semi-autonomous model, insureds' retirement savings earned an average of 3.93% in interest per year between 2019 and 2023. In order to allow insured members to continue to benefit from interest rates and the compound interest effect in the best way possible, the Board of Trustees has decided to gradually adjust the conversion rate between 2025 and 2027. This helps offset the increasing redistribution from working insureds to pension recipients. The Board of Trustees is committed to providing a fair distribution of funds for all generations. This is why it has decided to introduce a pension participation model together with the first conversion rate adjustment on January 1, 2025. Insureds will benefit from the Foundation's strong performance even after they retire.
