The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) collects and publishes comprehensive statistics on institutions for occupational retirement provision (IORPs) in the European Economic Area.
EIOPA’s latest factsheet on IORPs, based on 2024 data, provides insights into how European IORPs allocate the approximately €2.7 trillion they manage across different asset types and jurisdictions.
The data visualisation focuses primarily on investments in government bonds, corporate bonds, equities, and investment funds as these four categories collectively make up 92% of IORPs’ investment portfolios. Additional graphs illustrate how pension fund membership, contributions, and benefits have evolved over recent years.
Where detailed information on the underlying investments in funds is available, these investments are shown directly under government bonds, corporate bonds, and equities using the “look-through” method.
