What is United Pensions?

United Pensions is an international solution for employers and pension funds aiming to bring their pension administration and pension assets under one roof.

United Pensions is also an appealing alternative for pension funds and companies confronted with high premiums, high administration fees and increasing pressure from the Dutch Supervisor.

If the probability of grants of indexation to participants is very limited in the near future, United Pensions may also be an interesting option.
