The foundation aims to provide occupational benefits within the framework of the BVG (Federal Act on Occupational Retirement, Survivors' and Disability Pension Plans) and its implementing regulations for the employees of the company and economically or financially closely related enterprises, as well as for their relatives and dependents against the economic consequences of old age, disability, and death. The connection of a related enterprise takes place on the basis of a written accession agreement, which must be brought to the attention of the supervisory authority. The foundation can provide additional benefits beyond the statutory minimum benefits. To achieve its purpose, the foundation can conclude insurance contracts or join existing contracts, whereby it must itself be the insured and the beneficiary.
