How to transfer your second pillar to Tuleva?

Share with a friend:

On average, you will pay three times less in fees with Tuleva than in other pension funds – this means more money is left for you. Our investment rules are based on best practices, which have helped people grow their savings the most. Our fund manager is owned by Tuleva members – they are pension savers as well. They will make sure we keep our fees low, and act in the best interests of pension gatherers. You can read more about our funds here.

You do not need to be a member of Tuleva to transfer your pension. It’s free to transfer your pension to Tuleva. If you wish to also become an owner of your pension fund later on, you can always join us as a member.

Who regulates and supervises the activities of Tuleva Funds?

Tuleva holds an activity licence from the Financial Supervision Authority for managing funded pension plans and Tuleva funds are also registered with the Financial Supervision Authority. The internal and external supervision of Tuleva funds works the same way as for any other funds. Even if the management company goes bankrupt, investors’ assets in the second pillar of the pension system will be safe. In such a case, our custodian institution Swedbank and the Financial Supervision Authority would take over the management of Tuleva funds. The Financial Supervision Authority would be tasked with finding a new management company.. The funds in the pension funds can never be used for other purposes such as covering the management company’s debts or as a bankruptcy estate. There is not even a hypothetical possibility of some Tuleva employee “stealing” the money in pension funds: the assets are on accounts held at the custodian bank, not with Tuleva.

Your money is just as protected in Tuleva, as it is in a big Scandinavian bank.  You will just pay significantly less in fees. Here is a guide on how to transfer your pension to Tuleva if you are not a member: 

How to transfer your pension:

To help ou not get lost in internet banks we have prepared a step-by-step guide for you to help with your fund transfer. If you are a client of Swedbank, LHV or SEB you can use your internet bank to switch funds; it doesn’t matter where your pension currently is. It doesn’t cost anything to use your internet bank to transfer your funds. If you wish to use the Pensionikeskus web page, then it costs 65 cents for directing your future payments to Tuleva and 1,53€ to transfer current funds.

Exiting your old fund is mostly free, only Swedbank has an exit fee of 0,1% of total unit value. However, this is a small amount, that you can make up quickly due to lower management fees in Tuleva funds.
