Hedgeweek: Pensions in Europe – how multinational companies are preparing their pensions in Europe for the future


Default: Change to:


The white paper, 'Pensions in Europe', looks at what multinational companies see as the major issues facing them today with their pensions in Europe, and also examines what the companies are doing now and what they intend to do in the future.


The latest AEGON Global Pensions white paper 'Pensions in Europe' confirms three dominant trends in how multinational companies are managing their pensions today – a drive to improve and centralise pension governance, a strong shift to Defined Contribution pensions, and the move to de-risk Defined Benefit pensions.

The white paper also addresses how multinational companies view their pensions in the context of the European Union, and examines how the European Commission’s actions are shaping pensions environment across Europe.

The paper:

  • contains quotes and insights from leading multinational companies, international pension consultants, representatives of the European Commission and national supervisory bodies;
  • gives broad analysis of the current state of European pensions;
  • identifies four company categories on the basis of their approach to pensions, management style and company culture;
  • reveals how the parties involved view the future of European pensions; and finally
  • provides five guidelines on how to take advantage of pension opportunities in Europe.
