The Swiss pension system has a well-founded and well-capitalized second pillar: the occupational pension plan (OPP). The pension funds are responsible for managing the funds of the insured persons within the occupational pension scheme and for ensuring the provision of benefits.

This study is an update of the economic portrait of pension funds, published in 2018.
