Future Pensions Act
The Dutch pensions system is constantly evolving. The introduction of the Future Pensions Act (Wet toekomst pensioenen ‘Wtp’) is a good example of this. The WTP aims to make the system more balanced, personal and transparent. The transition creates leeway for customisation and flexibility, allowing pension funds to respond to the individual needs of their members. The transition to this new pension system poses significant challenges. It is a complex process involving many parties. Van Doorne guides its clients through this transition.
Sustainability
Pension providers are busy improving the sustainability principles of their investment strategies in order to promote a positive environmental impact and to take their own social responsibility. They take their role in reducing CO2 emissions seriously and often need advice on this. At Van Doorne, we help our clients to develop policies and guidelines on sustainable investing and to integrate sustainability factors into investment decisions.
