Annette Mosman, chairman of the board of APG: “I am very pleased that Ronald has again committed himself to us for four years. We are on the eve of the largest pension reform ever and with it also an important transformation of APG. In the new system, asset management and pension administration will come much closer together. Then Ronald's substantive knowledge and experience is essential. But it is equally important that he contributes as a professional and person to the stability and team spirit in the board of directors. As a board of directors, we will be able to benefit from that in the coming transition years.”

Our pension fund clients rightly place high demands on our investment activities, with sustainability as an important precondition. That is why we are pleased that we have been able to bind Ronald Wuijster to us again for another four years. He has in-depth knowledge and experience in the field of long-term responsible investing. On behalf of the Supervisory Board, I wish him every success in this new term.”
