In collaboration with the German Pension Insurance Scheme, PEBA organises consultation days at KIT which you can use to plan your private pension provision.

The consultations are conducted by an adviser from the German Pension Insurance Scheme in Baden-Württemberg. This service is open to all KIT staff (and their partners, if required). We offer two types of pension advice:
