Given the present low interest rate, we have also provided an indication of the effects on the basis of a fixed interest rate of 1% in table 8. The interest rate has an impact on the ultimate effect due to the long-term liabilities. In the case of an actuarial discount rate of 1%, the low interest rate results in an additional increase in the impact.

The separate percentages, as stated in relation to the types of pension, retirement pension and survivor’s pension, do not add up to the percentages, as stated in the combination of a retirement pension and survivor’s pension. This is because the provisions of the various types of pension are different. ■ RP = retirement pension SP = survivor’s pension These sample funds contain a combination of rights to a retirement pension and a partner’s pension. Tables 9, 10 and 11 show the effect on the provision for these various types of pension.
