Frequently asked questions about pension policies

If the policyholder is a company, then the company can surrender the policy if the life assured is no longer working at the company. Money is returned to the company and not to the life assured. Note! If the life assured has signed an irrevocable beneficiary clause the life assured’s signed approval is needed for surrender.

If the policyholder is a private client, then they can surrender the policy providing one of the following terms has fulfilled within the last year:

  •  the policyholder’s spouse has died
  •  the policyholder’s divorce is set in force
  •  the policyholder OR his/her spouse has been unemployed for more than one year
  • the policyholder is permanently unable to work due to their health

If one of the above mentioned reasons do apply then we require the following documents (originals to be sent to PL 953, 00101 Helsinki).

  •  surrender application form
  • bank statement or other document confirming account number, account owner, bank and date
  • copy of a valid ID
  • proof of valid surrender reason (for example doctor’s statement or court order)
  • if it is a company owned policy and there is an irrevocable beneficiary nomination we also require written confirmation from the life assured that he agrees that the company surrenders the policy back to themselves

There is no online portal for the pension products.

Tax cert for income tax needs to be for ’jatkuvaa eläkettä’. If tax cert is not received tax is 40%.

You can start your pension age once you have reached your policy’s pension age. The pension age depends on the policy’s commencement date.

Commencement date Pension age
Before                   23.6.1999                                      58
Between              24.6.1999 – 5.5. 2004            60

The minimum term is two consecutive years and four payments but note that timing of when the savings were paid into the policy also affect the minimum term.

  • Savings paid between 1.1.2010 – 31.12.2016 cannot be taken out before the client has turned 62.
  • Savings paid after 1.1.2017 are subject to the statutory retirement age of each client.

By adhering to the above restrictions the client can plan their own pension term. Please discuss possible payment plan with your broker or tax advisor.

Payslips are electronic and can be viewed through your own personal online bank. Service provider is Maventa and can be found in different ways depending on your online bank.
