The German government aims to push its pension package through parliament before the end of the year. The capital-funded supplementary pension could launch in 2028, as Handelsblatt reports.

The newspaper calculated how much money employees could accumulate with the capital pension for various age groups and return scenarios. According to the analysis, up to 393,000 euros extra are possible.

The analysis also shows how long the accumulated capital would last if workers withdrew 1,000 euros per month. The supplementary pension is intended to help stabilize the pension level.
