Our history

We have the vision of a 3a solution that you can recommend to your best friends with a clear conscience. We are convinced that with this solution, which has been optimized down to the smallest detail, we are showing a way in which our generation can protect itself against the impending problems of old-age provision.

«The idea arose from the need for a simple, understandable and above all efficient pension solution. Private provision will become indispensable in the future and must be accessible to the masses without obstacles.»
