Who can benefit from a pension analysis?
Swiss social security (pillars 1 and 2) isn’t just there to provide for you when you reach retirement age. It also insures pensions in the event of disability or death.
If you're adequately protected, you won't suffer financially as well if something happens to you. In principle, a pension analysis is worthwhile for everyone. The risks are particularly high for cohabiting couples, new residents in Switzerland, self-employed people with sole proprietorships and property buyers. It may also be a good idea to have your situation reviewed after a change of job or divorce.
Pillar 3 can help you close any pension gaps you may have. It’s therefore worthwhile to consider the topic in detail.
