Key legal question
Whether the ground abilities insurance qualifies as an acknowledged tied pension insurance under pillar 3a.
Extracted holding
No. The model is not exclusively dedicated to occupational pension provision because it can pay benefits even without a loss of earning capacity.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 82 BVG and Art. 1 BVV 3 require exclusive and irrevocable service of occupational pension purposes. The concept of invalidity in pillar 3a cannot be broader than in pillar 2; risks without impact on work or earning capacity are outside pillar 3a.
