Discover the 3 most important aspects of pensions in Germany

Pension Gap Germany

Beware of the pension gap

Most people should plan for over 20 - 25 years in retirement, and women and higher educated even more. The public pension in Germany can help most people cover ⅓ of their pension needs. That is not near enough for a comfortable retirement, let alone to retire early, or pursue dreams like a career switch, a sabbatical, or a second home. You need to take charge and make your money work for you, and the sooner the better. Learn from us how you can best cover that gap.

Sample Calculation Rürup pension

Most supplementary pensions really do not work

We have studied and modelled the German pension system options, including all tax benefits and conditions. For example, company pension plans have severe investment limitations and reduce your public pension; Rürup pensions require an annuity that is very disadvantageous when interest rates are so low. Taxation differs for each pension system and are mind boggling. Our Phd's have modelled it all so we have the hard numbers. We can show you quite exactly what works and what not.

Pensionfriend Pension Plan vs direct ETF investment

A great option: when ETFs meet life insurance

Few people realize that ETF-based private pension insurance can offer tax advantages as well as special insurance benefits, that make them better then outright ETF investments or state subsidized pension plans. We started Pensionfriend to offer this option without the high cost, the upfront fees of the usual insurance plans, and with the flexibility of withdrawal of an ETF plan. We selected optimal automated ETF portfolios without charging you extra. Join us and learn about optimal portfolios and the difference it makes for your pension.

"What if I already have a company pension plan, Riester, Rürup, or similar?"

Don't worry! We will compare the different options in the webinar and can share articles about the pros and cons of the various pensions. We can discuss whether switching makes sense or if you're better off sitting tight.

Awesome, I'm in!
