Pensionskasse Rundfunk
Pensionskasse Rundfunk was founded in 1971 to deliver old-age and survivor benefits to freelance and temporary staff in the German media sector. Martin Schrader leads the board while Marcus Schwegler oversees investments. The fund follows a passive equity and bond strategy through ETFs. It also commits to real estate and infrastructure assets with a 10-to-15-year horizon. Liquidity notes state that these holdings capture illiquidity premiums. Geographic focus remains Germany with exposure to domestic property and infrastructure projects. The firm reports 1.9B in assets. It maintains memberships in aba and VDT and works with service providers including Universal-Investment for fund administration and Faros Fiduciary Management for investment advice. No dated operational events from the last 24 months appear in available records. The fund operates as a sector-specific occupational pension vehicle tied directly to German public broadcasters rather than a diversified asset manager or family office.
