Response to Supplementary pensions – review of the regulatory framework and other measures to strengthen the sector

2 Jul 2025

Citi is strongly convinced that strengthening the role of capital markets will have a positive impact on the European economy. Expanding participation in personal and occupational pensions is an important part of this, and we therefore welcome the European Commissions initiative to develop the supplementary pensions sector as an essential component of the Savings and Investments Union. Experience in the United States, Australia and the United Kingdom, shows that automatic enrolment in retirement savings plans can dramatically improve participation and asset accumulation. Clear default options and streamlined administration have been critical to building public trust and encouraging uptake. We encourage the Commission and Member States to consider policy incentives, simplified enrolment mechanisms, and digital channels to make such systems widely accessible. A more developed supplementary pensions sector can contribute to greater scale, deeper liquidity, and improved operational efficiency across European capital markets. Citi supports predictable, proportionate regulatory environment can unlock the capacity of pension institutions to finance innovation, sustainability, and growth. Regarding the Institutions for Occupational Retirement Provision (IORP) framework, we therefore support efforts to increase scale and cross-border activity, including facilitating cross-border operations of occupational pension schemes. Citi remains committed to contributing constructively to this policy process and looks forward to engaging further as the proposals develop.
