Auf Anfrage äusserte sich ASIP-Direktor Müller-Brunner ablehnend gegen die AHV-Reformvorschläge der Beratungsfirma Deloitte. Auf IPE heisst es dazu:
ASIP expressed strong doubts about the recommendations.
“The severely strained trust in the second pillar must be rebuilt [after the vote in 2024] before calling for further reforms,” director Lukas Müller-Brunner told IPE.
On the first pillar, he said the demand for higher state subsidies for the AHV is “unrealistic” in the current environment, as the government is focused on spending cuts. He also warned that strengthening the capital-funded component is problematic.
The Swiss system is designed so that the AHV operates on a pay-as-you-go basis, while occupational pensions are capital funded. Mixing the pay-as-you-go system AHV and occupational pensions is «dangerous”, Müller-Brunner said.
