The pensions of retirees and former members will be increased by 1.29% and those of active members by 1.50%. This corresponds to 96% of the standard. Statutory rules have to be taken into account when providing the supplement. The pension fund is only permitted to provide the full supplement when the policy funding ratio is 122%.
