As II pillar pension funds actively managed by AS LHV Varahaldus outperformed the benchmark index in 2020, LHV Group earned higher income than forecasted in the Financial Plan.

2020 was a successful year for LHV pension funds, as seven LHV II pillar funds earned clients a combined total return of 65 million euros after all fees. With the amendment to regulations that entered into force in 2019, the state significantly reduced monthly management fees of pension funds and also introduced the possibility to earn performance fee if actively managed pension funds outperform the benchmark index, that is increase in receipt of social tax which also affects indexing of I pillar pension.

Outperforming the benchmark index and growing the assets of pension clients in II pillar allowed LHV to earn a total of EUR 6.2 million performance fee from the results of pension funds L and XL.

The Financial Plan of LHV Group disclosed in October did not estimate potential performance fee by asset management. As the performance fee exceeds the 10% deviation rule established in the market regulations, this announcement has been made public. LHV will disclose accurate financial results for Q4 and 12 months on 9 February 2021.
