The members of De Unie The majority have approved the adjustments to the minimum pension scheme of the Collective Labor Agreement for Banks. Thank you to the members who cast their votes. Retirees and members who are no longer active in this sector also agreed with the outcome of the negotiations. The employers' association has now been informed about this result.
Next steps
With these agreements, the affiliated banks that save pensions in a pension fund can start negotiations with the employee participation body. Pension funds must submit a transition plan to the supervisory authority (DNB) by December 31, 2024. At most banks, pension accrual is placed with an insurer or a PPI (Premium Pension Institution). For these pensions, a different period applies to adapt the scheme to the new pension legislation (Wtp). For these pension schemes, parties must adapt the scheme to the Wtp by December 31, 2028 at the latest.
