Frequently asked questions

Short answers

What is a good pension?

A good pension is an income you receive after you stop working that allows you to live comfortably. Its amount depends on your personal standard of living, desires, and the expenses you expect to have during retirement.

What is the expected outcome?

The expected outcome is an estimate of the retirement income you can expect based on the investment strategy Vive puts together specifically for your situation. This result may vary due to market fluctuations and personal choices

How much should I put in?

The deposit needed for a desired retirement income varies from person to person and depends on your retirement goal, age, desired retirement age, and expected returns. The retirement calculator can help you determine this amount. You can base a rough calculation of the deposit on the eventual monthly income you want during your retirement. You calculate or determine how much you want per month. Then you calculate back how much you need to put in to achieve this.

What is an annuity?

An annuity is a financial product that provides a periodic payment, such as monthly or annually, for a specified period of time or for life. This can be part of your pension accrual, where you convert part of your pension capital into a fixed benefit.
