Central German Pension Insurance expands global reach in 2025
The Central German Pension Insurance, based in Leipzig, handles one of the largest pension systems in the region. Each month, it distributes around 1.5 million payments to retirees across the world. In 2025, its reach extended well beyond Germany, covering recipients in Europe and beyond. The organisation serves three key German states: Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Thuringia. With over 3,500 staff, it ranks among the biggest social insurance providers in the area. Beyond pensions, it runs a rehabilitation clinic in Göhren and offers more than 100 apprenticeship and study places annually.
In 2025, the Central German Pension Insurance paid 11,812 pensions to recipients within the European Economic Area (EEA). Hungary received the highest number of payments at 8,497, followed by Bulgaria with 3,293. The institution also acts as a liaison office for both countries, managing cross-border claims. Payments were not limited to Europe. Retirees in the United States, Canada, and Australia also received pensions from the Leipzig-based provider that year.
The Central German Pension Insurance continues to expand its international payments while maintaining strong regional ties. Its role as a liaison for Hungary and Bulgaria highlights its importance in cross-border pension coordination. The organisation remains a key employer and service provider in central Germany.
