PensionDanmark won the two awards for its innovative use of technology in several areas, such as robotics and for being at the forefront of investing in sustainable infrastructure. The event took place at the annual conference for pension funds and other institutional investors “IPE Conference & Awards” held in in the Czech Republic capital Prague on Thuesday night. It is the third time PensionDanmark is awarded European Pension Fund of the Year (2012, 2014 and 2017) – the only pension fund in Europe to have ever received the honor three times.
”We see the awards as yet another international recognition of our persistent focus on securing the best possible pension scheme for our members. High yields and low costs require continued innovation. The awards are not least a recognizion of our extensive focus on digitalization and robotics. The awards are an additional motivation for us to continue the work,” says PensionDanmark CEO Torben Möger Pedersen.
