Client Solutions and Fiduciary Management

Kempen works for several medium-sized and large pension funds, insurers, family offices and foundations, both in the Netherlands and the UK. We have a broad client base and manage Defined Benefit (Collective Defined Contribution, CDC) and several (Collective) Individual Defined Contribution (IDC) schemes. Kempen is the largest manager of DC schemes in the Netherlands, with assets of about €2 billion and over 1.3 million members. We now have one of the largest fiduciary teams working on behalf of Dutch institutional investors. You can rest assured that we will continue to invest in our employees and systems in future. Fiduciary management is and will continue to be a strategic service for Van Lanschot Kempen.

Defined Contribution schemes and life cycles

In total, we manage in excess of €1.9 billion in assets, invested via defined contribution schemes and life cycle funds. This is a core activity for us and we are one of the largest parties in the Netherlands. Clients include Stichting Pensioenfonds voor Personeelsdiensten (Stipp, for HR personnel) and Stichting Pensioenfonds Flexsecurity (for Randstad Group NL). We also work together with the BeFrank premium pension institution (PPI) to manage the DC assets via a range of customised life cycles. Furthermore, we offer third and fourth pillar solutions via Van Lanschot’s Evi service. Our demonstrable knowledge and experience mean that members can be assured of a transparent and affordable pension.

General Pension Fund

The independent division of roles between the fiduciary manager and the underlying asset managers ensures that Het nederlandse pensioenfonds (Hnpf, a general pension fund) constitutes a distinctive and responsible model. With powerful partners Kempen and a.s.r. for fiduciary management and pension administration, we possess the right expertise and support to create the best pension solutions for our clients. This makes Hnpf a truly solid pension fund, with DNA that will still be very much active a century from now.

Kempen is the exclusive fiduciary manager for Hnpf. In 2018, Hnpf will grow to hold assets of about €1.5bn.

Sustainability in Action: Flying cleaner, paying less

Thomas van der Meij will leave Van Lanschot Kempen

Today, we announce that Thomas van der Meij, who spent 15 years at Van Lanschot Kempen, of which almost 5 years managing the Kempen (Lux) Global Listed Infrastructure Fund, has decided to leave the firm in order to pursue new professional ambitions.

Questions for rapid decarbonization

The yearly CO2 emissions of Xcel Energy, a major US electricity provider, equal that of almost 10 million cars. Still, as a sustainability conscious investor, Kempen does not rule out Xcel as an investment. Why? Because Xcel Energy has a credible roadmap for transition, on which we have actively engaged with the company face-to-face. Engaging and asking the right questions can turn even CO2 heavy companies into frontrunners in decarbonization. What are the questions that we ask?
