Netspar Magazine 23: Pensions and Europe

In this latest edition of the Netspar Magazine, we focus on Europe. A myriad of developments, new laws and regulations  are underway, for example in the fields of privacy and transparency. This leads to opportunities, but also raises questions and resistance in the pension industry. What do new EU rules mean for the Dutch pension system? Are we right to be concerned? What can the Netherlands learn from the European discussion? Science, sector and supervisor shed light on the role and influence of Europe, regulation, market developments, new products and the (literal) movements of the individual across the European borders. I wish you happy reading. Download the Magazine.
