Statistics report on pension funds in the Netherlands

Pension funds in the Netherlands

Much like with health insurance, pensions in the Netherlands combine government supervision with free market dynamics. Once someone turns 67 in the Netherlands, they can apply for a state pension - the AOW - but participation in an additional pension fund is mandatory. Payment slips deduct money for these each and every month. This makes pension funds in the Netherlands significantly important to consumers' future plans, as economic upturns or sudden changes in the stock market could mean the end of personal savings.

This report presents graphs and tables about pension funds in the Netherlands. It provides an overview of Dutch pension market, statistics on the money reserves and the assets under management of the largest funds in the country, and figures on how Dutch pension funds invest.
