| Financial situation has improved in 3rd quarter |
| Pensioenfonds PGB’s financial situation has further improved in the 3rd quarter of 2018. This is shown in the recently published quarterly report. Unfortunately, there came an end to this positive trend in October, in particular due to a fall in share prices. This had a negative impact on the level of the funding ratio in October and decreases the likelihood of supplements being granted. In order to be able to increase the pensions, the policy funding ratio needs to be higher than 110%. |
