Pensioentransitie versnelt, zwaardere rol accountant

The Netherlands' pension system is undergoing rapid transition, with Dutch central bank DNB reporting 46 fund migration applications currently pending, mostly targeting 2026-2027. An additional 60 applications are expected during 2026. These transitions will affect approximately 90% of pension participants, significantly increasing accountants' responsibilities in managing complex compliance and technical requirements during this large-scale sector restructuring.
