To improve the channels for dissemination of knowledge and to increase involvement of non-academic partners, Netspar appointed five fellows who have substantial professional experience in the Dutch pension and insurance sector: Dick de Beus (ex-PGGM), Jean Frijns (ex-ABP), Jan Nijssen (ex-ING), Jan Overmeer (ex-AEGON) and Bert de Vries.
