German term or phrase: Vorsorgeleistung
Der Markt für private Vorsorge entwickelt sich größtenteils unabhängig von der bereits getätigten Vorsorgeleistung der Privatkunden und den konjunkturellen Wachstumszykliken.

Die Vorsorgeleistung entspricht der jährlichen Gesamtsumme aus:
a)Spareinlagen bei Bausparkassen
b)Ausgezahlte Darlehenssummen bei Bausparkassen und Hypothekenbanken
c)Prämienaufkommen der Lebensversicherungen
d)Nettomittelzuflüsse in Publikumsfonds
e)Sonstige Geldzufluss in Vorsorgeprodukte

Thanks for all of your input; it was hard to decide whose answer was the most helpful. In my text, however, I've decided to translate "Vorsorgeleistung" as "insurance contributions" (which I found in a previous translation) because as becomes clear in the rest of the text, a distinction is being made between general Vorsorge and Altersvorsorge. Any comments on this solution? I'm hesitant to propose this translation for the glossary without getting any feedback on it first.

(private or supplementary) pension fund provisions


Explanation:
"Vorsorge" usually has to do with preventive health care measures that are usually provided by medical insurance schemes.
But your context clearly puts this in the old age pension fund category. However, here this is a private pension scheme.
