Old Age Provision Extension Act

The pension reform law of the Schröder government was divided into two separate pieces of legislation by the Bundestag's Labor and Social Affairs Committee: the Altersvermögensgesetz(Old-Age Provision Act) and the Altersvermögensergänzungsgesetz(Old Age Provision Extension Act).

****************

The pension reform plans described above have been split into two bills, the “Altersvermögensgesetz AVmG” (Law on old age wealth), mainly dealing with the promotion of private and occupational old age savings, and the “Altersvermögensergänzungsgesetz AVmEG” (Additional law on old age wealth”), mainly dealing with changes concerning the public pension scheme.

many thanks Gitta - interestingly enough, I had 'invented' "Old-Age Wealth Amendment Act" as a Platzhalter in the translation, which seems to contain some elements. I think I'll go for the EU version rather than the U. of Essex, but you definitely get the points for your super research. And many thanks also to Marcus and Klaus!

Retirement Asset Supplement Act


Explanation:
Hi Rod,

Here's what this Gesetz is all about:
Mit dem 'Altersvermögensergänzungsgesetz' tritt zum l.Juli eine neue Formel in Kraft, mit der die jährlichen Erhöhungen der Renten berechnet werden. Sie hat das Ziel, das Rentenniveau langfristig leicht zu dämpfen und dadurch den Beitragssatz zur gesetzlichen Rentenversicherung bis zum Jahr 2030 nicht über 22 Prozent steigen zu lassen. Zugleich enthält das Gesetz eine umfassende Neuregelung der Hinterbliebenenrenten.

So it's about pension reform: new formula to calculate annual pension increases, long-term slow attenuation of pension payments, contributions to statutory pension funds to not exceed 22% until 2030.

A general translation would suffice I reckon: Retirement Asset Supplement Act or something along that line. There doesn't seem to be an official translation.
