The Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets reported that its board member Jos Heuvelman participated in the Eurofi Financial Forum held online from 25 to 27 March and moderated a panel on developing supplementary pensions and long-term retail investment products. The discussion focused on whether current European pension proposals are sufficiently ambitious and coherent to support strong, well-functioning supplementary pension systems across the European Union. Participants also discussed how second- and third-pillar pension products could strengthen mutual trust and Europe’s long-term investment capacity, including questions around scalability and added value. Heuvelman highlighted that policy initiatives should address not only capital accumulation but also governance, transparency and participant interests as core design features.
