What is a pension capital certificate?

A pension capital certificate shows the share of pension capital from a defined-contribution pension scheme with a previous employer. If you leave an employer before 01.01.2021 and have worked there for more than 12 months, you are entitled to take with you the amount saved for your future retirement pension. If you left after 01.01.2021, the 12-month requirement doesn’t apply and you will receive all your accrued pension, irrespective of how long you have worked for the company.

We have a good selection of mutual funds and pension profiles that are adapted to your age.

Pension capital certificates FAQs

When will you receive a pension capital certificate?

When you leave an employer and have worked there for more than 12 months, you are entitled to take with you what has been saved for your future retirement pension.

From 01.01.2021, the 12-month requirement will not apply. Savings from the previous employer will be stopped and the pension account you had in the company’s pension scheme will continue in your name. If you worked in a company that had a benefit pension scheme, you get a paid-up policy, and if the company had a defined-contribution pension scheme, you get a pension capital certificate.

How are the costs deducted?

The cost of your pension capital certificate is deducted from your balance on a monthly basis. Annual price, both before and during withdrawal of retirement pension, consists of:

Administration fee of 1 per cent of accrued pension benefits, but no more than NOK 400 a year.
Management fee, which depends on how you choose to invest your pension capital. We offer several mutual funds and profiles.
If you choose a pension profile, the administration cost is deducted monthly as a deduction from your saved pension.
If you choose a mutual fund, the management cost is deducted through daily price determination in the mutual fund.

Index-based management or active management?

You can decide yourself how the money is to be invested. You can choose from:index-based management or active management.

With index-based management, the manager invests in all companies that are part of a stock market index. Index-based management is also called passive management because the manager does not make their own choices. Index-based management is cheaper than active management. This reduces the cost of your savings, but you also lose the chance to get a better return than the stock market index.
In active management, our managers use their expertise and experience to find the companies they believe will be tomorrow's winners.
