## Definition

A law enacted in Germany in 2001. According to this law, pension fund investments lead to a substantial improvement in returns, primarily because - contributions are made from tax-free income, - interest receivable remains tax-free during the term of the contract, and - a nominal value guarantee is required by law for the relevant contracts. - See aging, old-age dependency ratio, pension contracts, labor force potential, balance sheet, holistic, nominal value guarantee, pension funds, prudent man standard of care, pension, funded, tontine. - Cf.
