The FSMA has published an update to its report on costs in second- and third-pillar pension products, revealing that costs remained broadly stable between 2020 and 2022, although a slight increase was observed for branch 23 insurance products. <\/span><\/p>

The study highlights that higher costs do not necessarily guarantee better returns. <\/span>In line with the “Value for Money” regulations, the FSMA has initiated targeted inspections focusing on products with the highest costs. These efforts have already led to significant adjustments: the closure of 10 funds, cost reductions for 59 funds, and an average cost decrease of 0.27%. This could potentially increase final pension capital by around 5%. The FSMA will continue its inspections in 2025 to further improve the situation.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

ING Belgium launched “ING Scan & Drive,” an AI-powered simulation tool that allows users to get an immediate estimate for a car loan and insurance by simply taking a photo of a vehicle. This innovation, developed in partnership with the insurer NN, offers a simple and modern experience for customers. The tool, available via the ING website, uses collected data (brand, model, car type) and allows users to personalize their simulation. ING customers can then directly subscribe to the car loan and insurance online.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

According to Munich RE, in 2024, natural disasters caused 310 billion euros in total losses, with approximately 133 billion euros in insured losses, making it one of the most expensive years for the insurance industry. Weather-related events, especially hurricanes, storms, and floods, were responsible for the majority of these losses. 2024 marked the hottest year on record, with global temperatures 1.5\u00b0C above pre-industrial levels, accelerating the frequency and severity of extreme weather events. Climate change is driving more intense storms and flooding, increasing both human and financial costs. The global community is urged to bolster resilience, especially in regions with minimal insurance protection.

On December 21, 2024, BNP Paribas Cardif signed an agreement to acquire AXA Investment Managers (AXA IM). The acquisition price is set at 5.1 billion euros, with the closing expected in mid-2025, and an anticipated impact of 25 basis points on BNP Paribas’ CET1 ratio, subject to approval by the relevant authorities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The alliance between BNP Paribas and AXA will create a giant with 1,500 billion euros in assets under management, of which 850 billion euros will come from AXA. The Belgian state is the second-largest shareholder of the French-listed parent bank, holding a 5.5% stake. AXA operates in Belgium as an insurer and through AXA Investment Managers.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
