Failure to repay pension after ABP administrative error
More than five hundred members of the ABP pension fund do not have to repay partner supplement that has been wrongly received. The MAX Ombudsman and the ABP Accountability Body asked for leniency.

According to ABP, however, this led to incomprehension because the participants did not know that they received too high a pension. The repayment scheme has now been canceled, amounts already repaid will be paid back to the participants.
From now on, the participants will receive the correct pension
