Dutch pension fund PMT has announced the appointment of a new accountability body for the next four years, consisting of 13 seats – five for pensioners and eight for employees.

The members appointed on behalf of pensioners are Sjef Marcelis, Anita Wieman, Jos Broeren, Evert Geul, and Tineke Kamstra.

Marcelis is part of the Association of Pensioners PMT and Broeren (FNV) and Geul (CNV) are part of the social partners and representatives of pensioners.

Additionally, Wieman and Kamstra will serve in a personal capacity.

Meanwhile, of the eight members of the accountability body, who have been elected on behalf of the employees, four are part of the Active Participants’ Interest List. These four members are Leo Rolf, Noortje Oudshoorn, Joshua Tourrich, and Wilfried de Waal.

In addition to these four members, two members, Rudy Kleine (FNV) and Carl Holtrop (CNV), are part of the social partners and representatives of pensioners. And the final two members, Sander Klaassen and Anne Marie Heij, will serve in a personal capacity.

The new members will be officially inducted in June, after which they will take up their roles within the governing body on 1 July.

“We are also saying goodbye to a number of valued members: Peter Borgman, Ruud Nieuwenhuis, Johan Wolthuis, Suzanne Sanders, Edwin Helwerda, Gerrit Verberne and Marco de Koomen,” PMT said.

“We would like to thank them enormously for their dedication, the excellent collaboration and their constructive input to the board!”

In addition to the elected members on behalf of the active participants and pensioners, three members are also appointed on behalf of the Federation of Employers Technology.

Of the current members, Frank de Wit and Martin van den Bos will not be returning, and the new members will be announced at a later date.
