Your pension capital is released on your retirement date. You must then purchase a pension from the pension capital at a pension insurer. This is required by law. A pension is a periodic payment that you receive as long as you live. You are free to choose the pension insurer from which to purchase a pension. You will receive a pension for yourself. In many cases, you will also have arranged a partner’s pension, which your partner receives if you die. If you do not wish to purchase a partner’s pension or if you do not have a partner, you can add the partner’s pension to your own pension. Your pension will be higher, but if you have a partner, he/she will not receive anything after you die. Your partner must consent to this exchange. |
