Pension Fund Forced to Sell Gold
THE HAGUE, 11/02/11 - The Dutch central bank (DNB) is demanding that a pension fund wind down its investments in gold substantially.
The pension fund for Glassmakers has put 13 percent of its assets in gold, and DNB says it has to cut this to below 3 percent. The supervisory body has given it a so-called 'directive' to do so following the fund's earlier refusal to wind down the investment in gold.
The directive has emerged from a ruling by a district court, which this week found against an appeal that the fund made against the measure. The gold must now be sold within two months.
DNB does not want to say that it sees gold as the next financial bubble. It does however say that the fund does not comply with the 'prudent person' rule, to which funds must adhere in the interests of their participants, with the its concentration of investments in gold. Pension funds on average invest 2.7 percent in commodities.
The fund invests for 1,142 current and former employees of companies including O-I Manufacturing Netherlands and O-I Sales and Distribution Netherlands. Pension consultant Mercer is the fund's advisor.

Mark Cobley
11 Feb 2011
A Dutch pension fund has been told to slash its substantial holdings in gold, after the country's pensions regulator ruled its exposure to the metal - usually viewed as the ultimate safe haven - was too risky.
The Stichting Pensioenfonds Vereenigde Glasfabrieken, a €300m pension fund for workers at several Dutch glassmaking plants owned by O-I International, has built up a holding in gold worth 13% of the fund over the past few years.
Yesterday, in a statement on its website, the pension fund said it has been told to reduce this to between 1% and 3%, as 13% is too much to have in a single commodity. The DNB, which regulates pension funds, says the average fund has 2.7% in commodities, including gold.
The gold price has risen from $600 per ounce to over $1,000 since July 2008, when the fund made its first investment. The DNB fears that if the price were to fall now the pension fund's solvency ratio could be further damaged.
It is currently at 104.7%, marginally above the 104% minimum target that the DNB has set the fund.
In its statement, the pension fund pointed out that 85% of its investments are in AAA-rated government bonds, mostly Dutch and German ones. Back in the summer of 2008 it did not want to invest in equities, fearing a correction, and had concerns about the euro-area economies - so plumped for gold as the safest option.
The pension fund said yesterday: "This is also the same argument made by central banks and the IMF for holding large positions in gold."
In a recent communication to members, Kees Pruissen, the director of the pension fund, wrote: "We invest in members' interests, and have benefited from the appreciation in the gold price. Especially in uncertain economic times, it proved a refuge...we trust in gold as an investment."
Nevertheless, the fund confirmed yesterday it will do as the DNB has directed, and sell "almost all" its gold holdings.
The SPVG and the DNB could not be reached for further comment yesterday evening.
