How should the Swiss finance the 13th monthly pension payment?
For the first time, retirees – whether living in Switzerland or abroad – will receive a 13th monthly pension payment this December. On November 29, the Swiss will vote on funding a 13th monthly pension payment by increasing value-added tax (VAT) by 0.4 percentage points.
What do you think? Where should the extra CHF4-5 billion every year needed to finance this pension hike come from? We’d love to hear from you!
