Auditing occupational pension schemes (BVG)
We audit and advise occupational pension schemes – from pension funds to 3a and 1e. We know what we’re doing.
The BVG regulations are becoming increasingly complex. Trust, neutrality, integrity, transparency and technical expertise are of the essence. We can offer all this to a high degree. Auditing and consulting of occupational pension schemes are part of our core competence.
The current economic environment and the legal requirements of the second pillar pose many different challenges for occupational pension schemes. As an auditor, we ensure reliable financial reporting and proper management. We thus build trust for insured persons, management and the foundation council.
Personal
We place value on the personal presence of the audit manager on site at auditing customers and continuity in the auditing team. We can thus guarantee a high-quality audit as well as clarify open questions promptly and conclusively.
Specialised
We have our own, specialised OPA auditing team, which receives regular further training. Thanks to the many different mandates we manage, we are used to handling different types of occupational pension schemes and the complex issues.
Customer-oriented
As an auditor, we want to offer our clients added value. We aim for critical cooperation instead of difficult confrontation.
