That’s a good question. Firstly, the nature of your pension plan is relevant. You are building up a pension in a CDC pension plan, which involves risks. In addition, all sorts of events in your life could affect your retirement income – examples include getting married, buying a house or moving abroad.

As an employee of NN, you build up a pension in a CDC pension plan. This means NN pays a fixed contribution into the pension fund. Neither your pension accrual rate, your pension benefits nor pension increases are fixed. Under this pension plan, it is the employees who bear the risks.

Life events
Throughout your career at NN, there will surely be plenty of changes in your private life and at work. Events that may have an impact on your pension. You might get married, move in with your partner or have a child. You could go for a new job. Your relationship could end. You could fall ill, or become incapacitated for work. It is important for you to realise that all such events could have an impact on your pension.

Check your pension
If you want to ensure you’ll be able to live comfortably when you’re retired, it's important that you check your pension from time to time. That way, you’ll avoid unpleasant surprises. NN CDC Pensioenfonds will guide you along the way.
