Munich. The Insurance Chamber Group is expanding its product portfolio and is bringing a unit-linked pension insurance onto the market with “PrivatRente SustainabilityInvest”, which invests exclusively in sustainable investments.
Carsten Tombers, Head of the Life Products Department in the Insurance Chamber: “Together with our network partner Deka Bank, we are for the first time offering a pension product that invests exclusively in funds and ETFs that pursue ecological and social goals on the one hand and the principles of responsible corporate governance on the other suffice. Our customers can help shape their investments individually, for example by swapping funds according to their own expectations. ”Typical features of life insurance such as lifelong annuity payments, protection in the event of death and an included dread disease benefit are fundamental elements of ESG-compliant life insurance. “Our new policy is therefore aimed at everyone who wants to participate in the opportunities of the capital markets with their provision and at the same time want to help shape a sustainable future.”
DekaBank offers the largest public insurer an exclusive investment mix of 13 sustainable investment funds to choose from for PrivatRente SustainabilityInvest. The range of bond, mixed and equity funds ranges from funds with an ESG strategy, which focus on the sustainability balance of the investments and minimum exclusions, to funds with “ESG impact” that consistently and specifically invest in a sustainable future.
Frank A. Werner, responsible for the life insurance business in the Versicherungskammer Group and board member of the fire law firm Berlin Brandenburg and SAARLAND Insurance: “Sustainability is not new territory for us, but rather a cornerstone and part of our self-image. Our new offer of private retirement provision fits our high social responsibility as well as the increasing customer interest in sustainable solutions. “
The private pension sustainability investment is offered by Bayern-Versicherung Lebensversicherung AG through all sales channels in the business area of the Versicherungskammer Bayern, the fire society Berlin Brandenburg and the SAARLAND insurance companies.
