    Amsterdam and BNG Bank sound gong for sustainable housing

    By sounding the gong, mr. Abdeluheb Choho, Alderman of the City of Amsterdam, calls attention to the installation of the first solar panels on individual subsidized rented homes of Eigen Haard, a large housing association based in Amsterdam.

    Thanks to the services of an Energy Service Company (ESCo), the housing association will not have to worry about the realization, financing, monitoring or maintenance of the solar panels for 20 years. Tenants will have lower energy bills, thereby also reaping the benefits. Over the coming year, more than 7,500 solar panels will be installed, making this project the largest of its kind in the Netherlands. The project was developed by HuurDeZon and is financed by the Amsterdam Climate & Energy Fund, Amsterdams Investeringsfonds (Amsterdam investment fund) and BNG Bank.

    Alderman Abdeluheb Choho hopes that the roll-out will continue: "The City's goal is for 20 percent more energy per inhabitant to be produced sustainably by 2020 than in 2013, in part by promoting the use of solar panels. In principle, any housing association could apply this concept. Some 45 percent of Amsterdam's housing supply is held by the associations, so the potential yield is tremendous."

    BNG Bank is the bank of and for local authorities and public sector institutions. The bank makes a sustainable contribution to minimizing the costs of social provisions for the public.

    BNP Paribas Investment Partners celebrates partnership

    By sounding the gong at the Amsterdam Exchange, BNP Paribas Investment Partners celebrates its partnership with the recently established Dutch pension fund for the dairy sector and related industries (BPF Zuivel).

    Early in 2015, a dozen dairies, together with dairy sector unions, set up this pension fund. This is noteworthy because the number of Dutch (sector) pension funds has been declining for years. Many of these funds are migrating to an insurer or a larger pension fund because of high costs or stricter legislation.

    With this new pension fund, employers and unions in the dairy industry are opting for a uniform and contemporary pension which employers and employees can afford and which is future-proof.

    Almost 100 years after establishing the first Dutch sector pension fund in Leeuwarden, for employees in parts of the dairy industry, this new fund shows that the interests of employers and employees can be well-aligned.

Morningstar adjusts the returns for risk using a utility theory based screen that imposes a higher penalty for downside variation in a fund’s return than it does for upside volatility.
