Are Dutch pensions a good investment? Recent news about increasing contributions, investment losses, and risk of pension cuts by @NOS, @NRC, @FD_Nieuws and others made me curious about the return of my #pensioen. nos.nl/artikel/236500… 1/n
Based on my back-of-the-envelope calculation, Dutch pensions are actually a pretty bad deal. It is likely that current contributors will receive less money than what they pay in. It is crucial that the new #pensioenakkoord is implemented fairly to improve this situation. 2/n
Take @abppensioen, the largest pension fund in #NL. Like many other funds, ABP increased the contribution percentage to 25.9% as of 2021. This means that employer and employee contribute 25.9% of the pensionable salary to ABP each year. 3/n
