After four years on the Executive Board, Maarten Blacquière (born 1967) will leave APG Group on April 1, 2026, at the end of his term as Chief Finance & Risk Officer (CFRO). Over the past years, Maarten has played a key role at APG, holding final responsibility for Finance, Risk & Compliance, Tax, and previously also IT.
“I look back on four intense years at APG,” says Maarten. “I’m extremely grateful to have contributed to the pension transition — the largest overhaul of our pension system ever. Over the past year, APG was the first pension administrator to bring two pension funds with a substantial number of participants to the new system. We are also on track to transfer three more funds with even more participants by January 1, 2026. I’m proud that in recent years APG has significantly improved cost control, resulting in a real-term decrease in the cost of our regular services. With my current term ending in April 2026, I intend to explore a new direction in my professional life starting next year. I remain committed to applying my governance experience in various supervisory and non-executive roles. In the coming months, I will continue to fully dedicate myself to the challenges APG faces.”
Grateful
Annette Mosman, CEO of APG: “We are deeply grateful to Maarten for his contributions and the professional manner in which he has operated as CFRO. Within the Executive Board, Maarten is known as a unifying force. He approaches issues calmly and methodically, always seeking appropriate solutions. I’m pleased he will remain with us until April 1, so he can continue contributing to the major transition APG is undergoing.”
Peter Bommel, Chair of the Supervisory Board: “Together with Maarten, we look back on several very intense years in which much has been achieved. We thank him for his contributions, particularly in the area of cost awareness. On behalf of the Supervisory Board, I wish Maarten every success in the next chapter of his career.”
