Private Altersvorsorge: Betriebsrentenrecht und individuelle Vorsorge

Markus Roth presents a comprehensive study on private pensions, based on a comparative assessment of the legal situation in the US, the United Kingdom and Switzerland. His main achievement is the development of general principles for an operative and sustainable law on occupational and individual pensions.
The study explores the application of these general principles to pension contracts from the stage of contract conclusion until the time of payout. The survey covers insurance law, investment law, company pension law as well as trust and Treuhand. The author's central objective is to provide the dogmatic foundations for asset funding and defined contribution schemes. Both are key elements of modern occupational pension law.
