On July 3rd, we organized the UPO webinar for the Final Pay plan and the ARP/ASP plan. Did you miss it? No problem! In MyMarsPensioen you can now watch it back.

Earlier this year we informed you about two vacancies for the Accountability Council. We were looking to appoint new members representing employees and the pensioners. Both vacancies have since been filled.

The interest accrual for the ARP plan for the second half of 2024 has been set. For active members this is 4.14% on an annual basis. For deferred members this is 3.98%.

You'll receive your annual pension statement (UPO) around June 21st. Want to know more about the UPO and what the numbers mean? Then sign up for our webinar on July 3rd.

The right to be heard has been created in the new pension legislation (Wtp) for retirees, so that their interests are represented in the transition to the new pension system. According to the new pension legislation, pension funds must have transitioned to a new pension system by 1 January 2027/2028 at the latest.

In addition to the vacancy for member of the Accountability Council on behalf of the employees, Mars Pension Fund is now looking for a new candidate for the Accountability Council on behalf of pensioners. One candidate is available. Others can also apply as a candidate for this vacancy.

We aim to increase the pensions of the final pay plan every year (indexation). As per January, 1, 2024, the pensions of pensioners and deferred members of the final pay plan will be increased by 0.16%.

The pension fund invests the contributions of the participants collectively. This blog post explains how this works and why we do it this way.

Mars Pension Fund is looking for a new candidate for the Accountability Council, for which one candidate is available in the Talent Pool. Others can also apply as a candidate for the vacancy.
