Investor Council
25 September 2024

Date and location: Wednesday 25 September, LantarenVenster, Rotterdam

Conference theme: 

Investing in the new pension system
The Dutch pension system is changing from Defined Benefit to Defined Contribution: a fundamental change with far-reaching consequences. Pension funds’ investment policies are expected to be tailored more closely to plan members’ needs, while those members will demand more information about ‘their’ investments – ranging from performance to sustainability. What will the ideal investment portfolio look like? Will there be a pivot towards more risk-bearing assets (if plan participants want)? What is the role of sustainability? And, importantly, how will members be informed about their pension assets?

We tackle topics such as:

  • interest hedges
  • return and matching investments
  • difference between flexible and solidary system
  • the role of the custodian (and the relation between pensioenadmin and asset management)
  • risk appetite of participants translated in investments
  • explicit and implicit lifecycles
  • illiquid investments and their appreciation
  • communication with participants on their investments
