  • Purpose of Transition Report
  • Survey is for life insurers/PPIs with second-pillar pension products in their portfolio.
  • NLD DNB wants insight into the pace at which life insurers and PPIs are converting existing pension agreements into schemes that meet the Future Pensions Act.
  • Further to entry into force of Wtp, social partners and pension administrators have until transition period-end to adapt existing pension agreements to the new legislation.
  • This is subject to compliance with the effect of the new Wtp legislation.
  • NLD DNB will use insights gained to plan and structure supervision of the new pension legislation, and after analyzing answers, NLD DNB will provide a sector-wide update.
  • If there is reason, a round table meeting is one possibility and, if necessary, NLD DNB will discuss consequences of new pension regulations with providers individually.
  • NLD DNB shares the information it receives with NLD AFM, accordingly.
  • Survey will be repeated during transition, annually/semi-annually, based on results.
  • Effectiveness
  • From Sep. 1, 2024, it will be possible to submit the report to NLD DNB via DLR.
