At GEMINI, each affiliated company has its own employee benefits unit and decides on its benefits and financing. In 2024, all coverage ratios were above 100%. The interest rate was determined individually. All investment pools achieved results in line with the industry average.
Coverage ratio
As at the end of 2024, all active employee benefits units had a coverage ratio of over 100%.
Interest
The pension fund committees set the interest rate for 2024 based on the returns achieved. The administrative office calculates a provisional coverage ratio for each employee benefits unit at the end of October. This shows how the chosen interest rate affects the coverage ratio and includes guidance for the pension fund committees when deciding on the interest rate.
