1. Description of the challenge

Together with your team members you have to manage the assets and liabilities of one of the world’s largest pension schemes for the coming 5 years.  

For pension provider APG, pensions are about people, life, and living together. Through careful asset management, pension administration, communication, and advice, we work towards a livable future for current and future generations. In which we share prosperity and well-being fairly and sustainably. Now, in the future, and later. Together with 4000 employees in Amsterdam and Heerlen, APG is committed to around 4.5 million people in the Netherlands and manages a total asset portfolio of around 550 billion euros. 


In order to participate in this challenge we require your resume as part of your registration. 


2. Expected outcome

Participating in the game should help you in understanding the types of asset classes, which guidelines pension organizations follow, and how the economy can influence asset allocation.

About APG

What kind of income can I expect in the future? It’s a question we all ask ourselves now and again. We at APG understand that like no other. We manage a total capital of over 550 billion euros for our pension funds and their members and beneficiaries.

 

We are a pension provider that looks not only at financial returns, but also at doing our bit for society. In areas such as solidarity between generations, sustainability, values, diversity, the climate, and digitalization. Because pensions are ultimately about people, about life, and about living together in society. What good will a great pension do when the world around you has become unlivable?


We at APG want to make a real difference day after day. So that you, your parents, and your children will be able to rely on a good income. Today, tomorrow, and beyond.
