Kernrechtsfrage
Whether free reserves may be used under the statutes to finance full-insured risk contributions
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The statutes allowed free reserves to finance contributions of insured persons and employers, and this also covered risk contributions.
Extrahierte Begründung
The statutory wording was clear and did not distinguish between savings and risk contributions. Earlier case law did not prohibit such a reduction where it applied proportionally to all contribution types and did not create an impermissible unilateral benefit for the employer.
