The 13th AHV pension, which is paid to everyone according to the founding principle, costs five billion francs per year, the No Committee said in a statement on Tuesday. The “Thirteenth” would also worsen the AHV’s predicted financial problems. The SVP, FDP, Center Party and GLP are represented in the committee.
There will be a pension showdown at the ballot box on March 3. The voters will then decide on two AHV initiatives: on the one hand, on the unions’ popular initiative for a 13th AHV pension. On the other hand, about the pension initiative of the Young Liberals.
The trade unions’ popular initiative “for a better life in old age” calls for the introduction of a 13th AHV pension. If the answer is yes, a thirteenth monthly salary for seniors will be added to the previous twelve monthly pensions.
The Young Liberals’ pension initiative wants to increase the retirement age. First, it should gradually increase from 65 to 66 years by 2033 and then be linked to life expectancy: per month of additional life expectancy it should increase by 0.8 months – to 67, 68 or more. Automatically.
Details about both initiatives can be found here.

The committee promotes a targeted increase in low pensions and recalls a motion adopted by the National Council last December. This requires an adjustment of the calculation formula for AHV pensions to take low incomes into account.
However, it also states that the financing requirement for this does not exceed two percent of the annual expenditure of the AHV. The Council of States has yet to decide on this motion. (SDA)
