Pension Fund Membership (2nd pillar)

Employees earning an annual salary that is subject to mandatory contributions to Federal Old Age and Survivors' Insurance are insured from a certain amount in a pension fund. This is the case with most individuals. Self-employed individuals, by contrast, are often not members of pension funds, but are allowed to deduct a higher statutory maximum. However, self-employed individuals are also permitted to join a pension fund voluntarily.
