The retirement assets are your accumulated capital in the “pension fund account” of your pension fund. Depending on the pension fund, this may also be called AGH, savings assets, pension assets, termination benefits or similar.
It is made up of four components. Firstly, your monthly retirement credits (employer and employee contributions), secondly the interest earned, thirdly the vested benefits contributed and fourthly voluntary buy-ins. The amount of your retirement assets therefore depends on how much you and your employer(s) pay in in total and how much your pension fund earns as a return. Your pension fund statement will tell you how much your retirement assets have increased in the last year. This is because new retirement credits and interest on your existing capital are added every year. This is why your pension entitlement increases every year. This is because you can calculate your future pension from your retirement assets using the conversion rate: (conversion rate x retirement assets = retirement pension).
The pension fund regulates how you can withdraw your retirement assets later in life. You can either withdraw it all at once as a lump sum, or convert it into a lifelong pension or a mixture of the two. In any case, the law allows you to withdraw at least ¼ as a lump sum.
