Transparent participation model

Transparent and fair participation model

The Vita Classic retirement provision model is characterised by the direct and balanced participation of the insured in the investment income. This benefits them in the form of additional interest calculated according to a transparent mechanism.

The retirement provision model is explained in the brochure "Key facts at a glance".

Interest earned on retirement savings capital

The overall interest earned in the case of the Vita Classic retirement provision model consists of a base interest rate and an additional interest. The base interest corresponds to the legally determined minimum interest. If the coverage ratio amounts to at least 103% on the effective date at the end of November, additional interest is paid.

From 2024 – for the definition of the 2025 interest rate – the following applies: All affiliations will now receive the full additional interest in their second affiliation year in accordance with the interest table. In the year of affiliation, the entire retirement assets – provided a coverage ratio of over 100% – earn interest at the statutory BVG minimum interest rate.

Contribution to financing pension conversion losses

The pension regulations of the Vita Collective Foundation stipulate that the Foundation may levy contributions from insured persons and from the employer to finance the compensation of pension conversion losses (Art. 5 (5)).

Starting from January 1, 2024, a contribution rate of 0.01867 percent will be levied for the first time. This is calculated on the basis of the extrapolated mandatory retirement assets as of December 31, 2024 and applies to all active insured persons from the age of 45 and above. Per CHF 100,000 of retirement assets, this means a contribution of CHF 18.67 per year.

Employer and employee finance the contributions jointly – as provided for in the pension plan, for example 60/40 percent.
