It is also worth looking at the solutions from finpension. They impress with unrivalled low All in Fees:
- finpension 3a Retirement Savings Foundation (0.39% plus VAT)
- finpension Vested Benefits Foundation (0.49% plus VAT)
Comparison based on the factsheets as of the end of August 2020
How high are the charged fees of 3a funds? Which funds generate the best returns? Answers to these questions can be found in this comprehensive comparison of over 100 Swiss pension funds. The funds listed are open to private investors and can generally also be used as vested benefits funds for deposited pension fund assets (vested benefits).
The table below shows the ongoing costs (TER) which are charged directly to the fund assets. Accordingly, the TER costs are already included in the annualised performance figures, however, not the additional costs that may be incurred in the investment of pension assets. We have described what these additional costs are in the linked article in the context of investing vested benefit assets.

The table does not include offers from independent pension and vested benefits foundations. These foundations provide investment strategies that are composed of various investment funds (often ETFs). We prefer the use of index funds instead of ETFs for our offers.
In the list of providers of approved pension products of restricted pension provision (pillar 3a) as of 31 December 2020, you can see the total number of pension foundations in Switzerland.
