From the very first contact, there was a strong professional connection, further reinforced by their client-focused and entrepreneurial attitude, which immediately appealed to us. As a pension scheme, we are dedicated every day to providing a good pension for all our participants. With Van Lanschot Kempen, we have found a partner who will help us realise our ambitions and position ourselves for the future.”
