Vested benefits account / -portfolio

A vested benefits account secures the pension protection of the occupational pension plan (BVG). In certain life situations (e.g. interruption of employment), the capital from the occupational pension plan is transferred to a vested benefits account (see also glossary “Vested benefits institution”). A vested benefits portfolio enables the vested benefits assets to be invested with the aim of achieving a higher return in the long term.
