In 2020, there were around 21.2 million old-age pensioners in Germany, but only a very small proportion receive a monthly pension of 2000 euros or more – in 2015, there were just 97,271 pensioners, or 0.5 percent.
This is hardly surprising, because in order to receive a pension of 2,000 euros in old age, 60 earning points must be saved over the course of a working life. To do so, however, one’s income must be more than 30 per cent above the average income – and that for the entire working life, i.e. from the start. As things stand today, that would be about 4,400 euros gross per month. In addition: During this period, the salary would have to rise exactly like the average salary, including inflation.
The majority of Germans will therefore never have a pension of 2,000 euros or more. This makes additional private pension provision all the more important.
