The Pension Fund was established by the Permanent Commission on 1.1.05 for active staff at that date and future staff, and their dependants, to provide long-term coverage for pension benefits as foreseen in the statutory provisions related to the pension scheme of the EUROCONTROL Agency. Ensuring a well-balanced financing mechanism of the long-term pension liabilities proved particularly challenging in 2008, when the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression nearly 80 years ago hit the entire world. Most importantly, the Fund’s investments have demonstrated an excellent resistance amid the financial crisis, with a decrease of only -1.4%, while most pension funds saw their assets reduced by 20%. The assets of the Fund grew at a steady pace and stood at 353 M€ as of 31.12.08. The number of beneficiaries (pensioners) from the Fund stood at 242, compared to 196 at 31.12.07. The number of participants (active staff) increased slightly compared to the prior year and totalled 2.322 as of 31.12.08. In parallel to managing the impact of the financial crisis on the Fund, 2008 was also a year during which the Supervisory Board has put in place a number of measures that will establish the foundations for the Fund’s growth in the future. The Board revised the investment strategy in 2008 in order to adopt an asset allocation that, over the long term, is expected to provide a growth of the assets sufficient to meet the Fund’s liabilities. This implies a progressive move from a defensive profile (> 75% bonds) to a balanced profile (40% to 50% bonds – 40% to 50% equities). The Internal Audit Unit and the Audit Board had both issued a report on the Fund in 2007. These reports contained useful recommendations related to the governance of the Fund, to the investment strategy and to administrative and accounting aspects. The Board implemented these recommendations in 2008, which led among others to the revision of the Fund’s Regulations and to several improvements in the communication about the Fund. The Agency replied positively to the Board’s request to dedicate additional resources in support to the Fund to ensure an appropriate administration. The first part of this report details the investment strategy, summarises the activities of the Board in 2008, and presents the actuarial position of the Fund. The second part includes the financial statements for the year 2008 for which the Audit Board delivered an unqualified audit opinion.
