Liberty News – Minimum interest rate for mandatory occupational benefits plans as of 01.01.2018

It thus followed the recommendation of the Federal Commission for Occupational Benefits not to review the minimum interest rate. However, the Federal Council intends to re-examine the interest-rate decision-making bases by next summer.

The minimum interest rate only applies to the mandatory portion of pension savings.

Extra-mandatory assets are excluded. The terms and conditions for extra-mandatory plans can be obtained directly from the relevant occupational benefits institution.

La part surobligatoire n’est pas soumise à ce taux. Les conditions applicables peuvent être obtenues directement auprès de l’institution de prévoyance concernée
