You can withdraw your vested benefits account in accordance with the statutory regulations. The most important reasons for withdrawal are:
- Reaching the AHV age (5 years before possible)
- home ownership promotion
- Purchase into the pension fund
- Start of self-employment
- Leaving Switzerland
- Disability and death
- Minor nature (Vested benefits assets less than current annual BVG/LPP contribution)
As soon as you are accepted into a pension fund (e.g. resumption of employment), you are obliged to transfer the entire existing pension assets to the new pension fund. In addition, a transfer to another vested benefits foundation is possible at any time.
