Investor Plan

The Investor Plan is the Defined Contribution Section of the Siemens Benefits Scheme. When you join, the Trustee sets up an investment account in your name. Each month, your account is credited with your contributions and those made by the Company. You choose how you want the Trustee to invest your account from a range of options. When you retire, you can use the money built up in your account in a number of ways to provide you with a retirement income. This is in addition to, and separate from, any State Pension entitlement.
