This week, Delta Lloyd is sending an information folder on life-course savings and pensions to insurance advisers and employers. The folder contains all the necessary information on the new life-course savings scheme and pension. By doing this, Delta Lloyd is helping its clients to make a sensible decision in favour of a life-course savings or a pension scheme. According to Delta Lloyd, the best life-course savings scheme is sometimes a pension and this also reflects the view of the insurer.
Delta Lloyd has a different view of life-course savings and presents a total concept for life-course savings and pension in which the requirements of the employer determine which scheme is more suitable. Where there is a demand for extra leave, Delta Lloyd recommends a life-course savings scheme; where there is a demand for extra pension, Delta Lloyd recommends a pension savings scheme. In this case, Delta Lloyd believes that a group scheme is more beneficial for employers and employees. Naturally, the insurance adviser plays a major advisory role in this.
Independent research data confirms the need to make an informed choice between a life-course savings and a pension scheme. The research* reveals that eighty percent of Dutch people have a pensions shortfall if we take 70% as the standard. Other research shows that there is a great demand among employees to retire early or to take a career break. The average Dutch person wants to retire at the age of 56** and seventy percent of Dutch people under 35 say that they want to take paid parental leave in the next ten years***.
