Several Dutch pension funds enter admin agreement with IG&H

The boards of the Veterinary Surgeons’ Pension Fund Foundation (SPD), the Physiotherapists’ Pension Fund Foundation (SPF) and Huisarts & Pensioen (H&P) have entered into agreements with IG&H for the future administration of their pension schemes.

The planned transition from H&P to IG&H is scheduled for 1 January 2028, while SPF and SPD will make the transition in 2029. Until then, the current administration will continue unchanged.

In recent months, the funds have been collectively searching for a new pension administrator.

The specific characteristics of occupational pension funds, combined with the transition to the new pension system and the choice of a flexible contribution scheme, made a joint exploration a logical step.

By choosing IG&H, the funds have opted for an organisation that combines many years’ experience in the pension sector with Allvida’s modern technology.

IG&H is building a specialised pension administration organisation in which pension administration, digital services and operational control are organised in an integrated manner.

The funds confirmed that nothing will change for members at this stage and that the pension funds will remain independent and responsible for their own pension schemes and governance.

The process undertaken by the funds was guided by the consultancy firm Eraneos, which supported the funds throughout the selection process.

In the upcoming period, the funds and IG&H will work together on the preparation, organisation and implementation of the future service provision. The funds will inform members and other stakeholders as soon as there are any new developments.
