Considers his main duty
NN CDC Pensioenfonds is a closed fund that is currently facing important challenges in order to make the pension fund future proof. In this transitional phase, this calls for a well-balanced weighing of the interests of all participants and stakeholders. At the same time, the pension fund needs to continue carrying on its business as usual. This means the board needs to keep striking the right balance between taking risks and making enough return on the pension fund's investments to ensure all participants will get a good pension.
CDC message
“Take time to check your pension on a regular basis. That way, you always keep clear sight of how your future income is developing. After all, you go to the dentist for regular check-ups, don't you? And you have your car checked up regularly as well; so why not do the same for your pension?”
