Board
The Board of the pension fund is ultimately responsible for the policy on pension management and asset management. The Board looks after the interests of pensioners, participants, former participants of ABN AMRO Bank and all other member companies.
What does the Board do?
Strategic policy is decided by the Board as a whole. The Board also has other duties and responsibilities, which are divided between the executive and non-executive board members.
Executive board members
The executive board members are responsible for the day-to-day management of the pension fund. They implement the strategic policy.
Non-executive board members
The non-executive board members oversee the implementation of the policy by the executive board members.
Board committees
Our board committees advise the Board. Each of these committees is made up of board members and one or more external experts. There are six board committees:
1. asset management and balance sheet management
2. communication
3. finances and pension management
4. pension fund governance
5. risk management
6. legal
How does the Board take decisions?
All decisions made by the Board are properly prepared. First, a proposal is discussed by one of the board committees. The committee then advises the Board on the proposal. Finally, the Board discusses the proposal and advice before making its decision.
Composition and appointment
The Board has 13 members. These can be grouped as follows.
Executive board members
