In this episode of our Dutch podcast, Wegwijs na Invaren, Roel Mehlkopf, Pension Fund Adviser at Cardano Netherlands, and Marc Heemskerk, Actuarial Consultant at Mercer, talk with Michael Visser from Nationaal Instituut voor Budgetvoorlichting (Nibud) about purchasing power around retirement and the lessons that can be drawn for the transition to the new pension system. 

Together, they discuss how spending patterns may change as people approach and move through retirement, and what this may imply for purchasing power, the need for indexation, and participant behavior. They then turn to the new pension system and the transition process (“invaren”).
