Interest on 2025 retirement assets: 6.0% for extra-mandatory benefits
Thanks to positive developments in the investment markets and the high financial and structural risk capacity, the Board of Trustees has decided to pay interest on the retirement assets of insureds for 2025 at 5.0% for mandatory benefits and 6.0% for extra-mandatory benefits. Insureds will thus benefit from an extremely attractive interest rate while the Foundation continues to enjoy a high level of financial security.

New investment strategy from January 1, 2026
During 2025, the Board of Trustees reviewed the foundation’s investment strategy and risk capacity as part of an ALM study. Given the favorable financial and structural situation, it has decided to place greater emphasis on return-oriented asset classes in future. The investment strategy will therefore be adjusted with effect from January 1, 2026. The most important changes are as follows:

• Increase in the equity allocation from 33% to 38% 
• Reduction of the bond allocation from 23% to 13%
• Higher commitment to alternative investments, raised from 8% to 14%

The Board of Trustees is thus pursuing the goal of achieving a better performance in the long term and thus higher interest rates for the benefit of the insureds. The new investment regulations will be available in the download area from January 2026.

New as of 2026: Individual options for insureds
AXA LPP Foundation Suisse Romande is committed to state-of-the-art occupational benefits provision that takes account of the individual needs of its insureds. For this reason, it has introduced new options for insureds as of January 1, 2026. 

• With the individual order of beneficiaries, insureds can now decide for themselves exactly which persons are to receive what specific portion of any potential lump-sum death benefits. 
•  Insureds with extra-mandatory retirement assets of at least 30% can adapt the amount of retirement and partner pensions in line with their individual circumstances when they retire. You can specify your preferred option when you register for retirement. You don’t need to take any action until then.

Civil partnerships do not need to be reported
Previously, couples living together had to notify their pension fund if they wanted to provide their partner with a pension in the event of death. This advance notification is no longer necessary for collective foundations managed by AXA. The current pension fund regulations do not require notification. For this reason, the “Confirmation of civil partnership” notification form has been removed. Whether the partner is entitled to draw pension benefits is only assessed at the time of the insured’s death. Further information on civil partnerships can be found in the Foundation’s Regulations.
